IM Chapter 4
by VolareChapter 4
The car was very quiet, and Shen ChiTai didn’t like this atmosphere, it made him feel uneasy all over.
Su Ning would occasionally smile and chat with the Beta beside her, her personality was outgoing and very likable. Shen ChiTai saw that Xu Chen was indifferent to the Omega, sometimes even letting her talk to herself like she was performing a monologue, ignoring her completely.
At first, he felt that Xu Chen’s attitude towards his friend was not very good, but the topics Su Ning was talking about were obviously something an outsider like him, who hadn’t participated, couldn’t chime in on.
As a result, the atmosphere in the car only became more and more tense, he was like a forgotten existence, uninvolved, and this feeling was a little difficult to bear.
He sat in the back row and couldn’t see the expression on Xu Chen’s face in front, he could only perceive from the tone of his voice that the man’s mood wasn’t very high, he was in a bad mood, and there was obvious impatience in his attitude when he spoke.
Fortunately, Su Ning met two friends she hadn’t seen in a long time halfway and took the initiative to get out of the car. Xu Chen didn’t stay for even a second longer, as soon as the car door closed, the Beta started the engine and drove straight ahead.
When Shen ChiTai arrived at the Cat Cafe, it wasn’t open yet. He opened the car door and was about to get out, but the person in the front seat got out of the car even faster than him.
In the next second, a figure suddenly appeared next to the Omega.
“Senior.”
Shen ChiTai turned his body, raised his eyes, and looked at the man approaching him, his pupils constricted slightly, and his expression was a little cold, “Xu Chen…”
“Did Senior perhaps want to get out of the car without saying a word?” The Beta bent down, one hand around his waist, his body lowered, and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
Shen ChiTai’s movements were restricted, with no way to retreat, his face buried in the position of his chest, the Omega automatically skipped this topic and asked him, “Are you very familiar with that junior?” In his limited impression, these two were inseparable no matter where they went, and their relationship seemed to be very good.
As for Su Ning’s feelings for Xu Chen, Shen ChiTai couldn’t say what kind of emotion it was.
“She’s just a classmate, and our families also have some cooperation in business.” Xu Chen didn’t like hearing other people’s names from his mouth, he pinched the Omega’s chin and lifted it up, “Senior has rejected me many times, I’ve been holding back all the way.”
Shen ChiTai bit his lower lip slightly, squinted his eyes and turned his gaze elsewhere, a little embarrassed, “There are too many people passing by now, and many of them are students from your school, wouldn’t it be troublesome for you to be seen?”
Xu Chen stared at his face for a moment, the expression in his eyes was dark, he was silent for a long time, and finally only said, “If Senior is free at noon, I’ll pick you up for lunch.”
Shen ChiTai originally wanted to go back home at noon, but when he thought that he had just rejected him, it wouldn’t be good to refuse again at this time.
He agreed to have lunch with Xu Chen.
The Beta had class and left after not staying long. As a senior, he didn’t have many classes, only three or four a week. He basically stayed at the company during his free time, learning to handle some work matters like Shang Jue.
After Shen ChiTai opened the door, he changed the cat litter, and only when he had dealt with all the matters in the store did he barely have time to catch his breath. In the morning, a customer came to the store to rent a cat. Out of consideration for the cats in all aspects, the cats in the store were originally not lent out.
Because the other party was a regular customer, Shen ChiTai relented.
At noon, two more girls came to the store, Li Yuan was also a regular customer of the Cat Cafe, and there was another girl who came with her.
“Welcome.” Shen ChiTai took the initiative to greet the two people who walked in.
“Why is it Senior alone guarding the store again this time, could it be that Yu Xingqiao, that kid, is only interested in flirting with girls and only cares about being a hands-off manager?” Li Yuan joked with him with a smile.
Shen ChiTai didn’t care.
“Anyway, I’m also idle, coming to the Cat Cafe can also pass the time.”
The girl also laughed.
When the two girls were teasing the cats, Shen ChiTai stood beside them with his arms folded, he enjoyed this way of getting along harmoniously with the little animals. Cats and dogs are all cute, exactly the same as Shang Jue when he was little, the more he looked at them, the more difficult it was to extricate himself.
As he thought about it, his thoughts unconsciously ran wild.
“I heard that you’re dating that Shang Jue from economics next door! Is that true?” The girl excitedly and curiously leaned in front of Li Yuan, her voice wasn’t loud, but it still seemed a little abrupt in the quiet Cat Cafe.
Shen ChiTai, who was standing next to her, was also stunned.
Li Yuan’s face turned red all of a sudden, and her expression was unnatural.
“Shh, keep your voice down.” She deliberately lowered her voice, her cheeks flushed, “We’ve only just gotten together, and we don’t plan to go public yet.”
Shen ChiTai’s eyes froze, and he stood there for a long time without moving.
He heard the girl digging to the bottom and asking Li Yuan, “When did this happen? Tell your sister all the details.”
“Just this weekend.” The girl whispered back to her.
Shen ChiTai came back to his senses and secretly congratulated him in his heart.
He didn’t expect that brat to actually be dating, he was actually hiding such an important matter from his family.
The Omega pursed his lips and chuckled twice on the side, he couldn’t tell in the past, but A-Jue was quite popular. But then again, boys of Shang Jue’s type are indeed very attractive to girls and Omegas.
Li Yuan and her friend played in the store for an hour before leaving.
Shen ChiTai glanced at the clock ticking on the wall, it was almost lunchtime. Estimating that Xu Chen should be out of class, he took the initiative to send him a message.
In fact, even if he didn’t do it, Xu Chen would take the initiative to come over.
As soon as the message was sent, he put down his phone, Xu Chen was also just getting out of class, and he hadn’t even left his seat when he received the message from Shen ChiTai.
In addition to being shocked, the undisguised surprise in the Beta’s eyes completely overflowed.
It only takes about ten minutes to drive from the school to the Cat Cafe.
Shen ChiTai had already locked the store door and was waiting for him by the side of the road.
The two chose a restaurant they often went to, because Shen ChiTai loved to eat the stir-fried dishes here, saying that the taste was pure, so this restaurant was the first choice for both of them every time they ate.
Xu Chen rarely ate out, and only when he was with him would he eat in these small shops. The two were eating when the phone in Shen ChiTai’s pocket rang twice inappropriately.
Xu Chen naturally heard it too, and quietly put a piece of beef in his bowl.
Shen ChiTai was worried that it was a message from Yu Xingqiao, he didn’t know what that person had been busy with recently, and every time he replied to a message, it was like a reincarnation.
He only took out his phone and glanced at it, it was a familiar avatar, Shang Jue.
The Alpha asked him where he was? Shen ChiTai originally wanted to reply after eating, but he was afraid that he would forget later, so he casually replied that he was still eating out. The other person replied almost instantly, asking who he was eating with? The Omega hesitated for a moment, but decided that it would be better not to tell him the truth.
The Alpha seemed to be in a good mood, and sent him several messages in a row, asking him what he had for lunch, Shen ChiTai simply sent him a photo.
Shang Jue said he wanted to eat pork liver, he was craving it.
Shen ChiTai smiled at his phone with doting eyes and said that he would make it for him tonight. Xu Chen looked at the Omega across from him who was constantly smiling at his phone, and his heart was a little sour.
“Senior.”
“Hmm?” Shen ChiTai looked up, “Are you calling me?”
Xu Chen put two more pieces of lean beef in his bowl, “Don’t you like to eat it? If you don’t eat it now, it will get old later.”
Only then did Shen ChiTai put his phone away and put it in his pocket, Xu Chen raised his eyes to look at him several times, the Omega’s mood had been good since just now, and even if he didn’t ask, he could probably guess who he was chatting with.
However, Shen ChiTai also said that he was just his younger brother, so he didn’t need to feel bad about it, it would be a joke if he said it out loud.
After eating, Xu Chen first sent him back to the Cat Cafe, on the way, the Beta’s expression had been not very good after receiving a phone call.
Shen ChiTai saw that he hadn’t been talking since he hung up the phone, and he had a clue in his heart. After all, they had been together for so long, and he knew more or less about Xu Chen’s family situation, and the Beta had been having conflicts with his family all these years. When two strong men meet, there will inevitably be many small misunderstandings and small frictions.
He had heard people talk about Xu Chen’s father, Xu RuZhou, a strong and decisive Omega.
The Xu family’s position in A City was comparable to the Shang family’s, but later, for some unknown reason, Xu RuZhou suddenly left the Xu family and went to the United States alone, and there had been no news since then.
The man only returned to A City a few years ago, even though he had been gone for more than ten years, the Xu family’s position and influence in the business circle had not diminished at all even after so many years.
The Omega unbuckled the seat belt on his waist and was about to get out of the car, but the person next to him grabbed his wrist and pulled him back.
Shen ChiTai looked up, and the outline of the man’s face gradually enlarged in his eyes.
“Baby.” Xu Chen pinched his chin, Shen ChiTai understood what he meant, but didn’t refuse.
The Beta kissed the Omega in his arms obsessively, his eyes full of endurance and suppression after being satisfied. Shen ChiTai’s brain reacted a little slowly, his thoughts gradually became chaotic, and between the entanglement of breaths.
His hands rested on the other person’s shoulders, and he tightened his fingers slightly, sticking out his soft tongue, intertwining and licking, actively responding to the other person’s passionate kiss.
“Mmm…”
“Senior.”
Xu Chen’s hand wrapped around his lower back, probing into his clothes from below, Shen ChiTai’s eyelashes trembled violently, his breathing was rapid, and his hands unconsciously pressed down on the Beta’s increasingly wanton hand.
Xu Chen stopped his movements, his warm lips fell on the Omega’s neck.
Shen ChiTai’s body trembled slightly, he grabbed his arm tightly, his voice trembling, “Don’t leave a mark.”
Xu Chen was stunned for a few seconds, then bit his earlobe gently. The two had just pulled apart a little distance, Shen ChiTai lowered his eyelashes slightly and took two quick breaths of fresh air, “Then I’ll get out of the car first.”
Xu Chen was very reluctant, “Send me a message tomorrow if you’re free, and I’ll pick you up for dinner then.” He only had time to see Shen ChiTai during the gaps between meals on weekdays.
“Okay.” A trace of red appeared on the Omega’s clear and cold cheeks, and he turned around and entered the Cat Cafe.
The person standing in the dark threw away the half-burned cigarette butt in his hand, repeatedly stomping on it heavily on the ground with his toe, and then turned around and walked in another direction, away from home, with a gloomy face.
Shen ChiTai went back in the afternoon and went to the supermarket to buy some things. As soon as he got home and put down the bag in his hand, he changed into a pair of breathable slippers and walked out, and Shang Jue opened the door and came in.
The Omega looked at him with a smile in his eyes, “A-Jue, you’re back.”
The expression on Shang Jue’s face was very faint, he stopped in front of him, his jawline was tense, and there was no emotion on his face, he said without rhyme or reason, “He sent you back, right?”
“Ah? Are you talking about Xu Chen?”
“Did he kiss you?” A trace of coldness was mixed in the Alpha’s voice, which made people shudder involuntarily.
The atmosphere permeating the air was a little tense.
“A-Jue, what’s wrong with you today? Are you not feeling well?” Shen ChiTai reached out to touch his forehead, but Shang Jue grabbed his hand.
“Are you done talking?” The Alpha’s emotions were not right.
Shen ChiTai was full of helplessness, and the scene that had happened before instantly appeared in his mind, he didn’t want to talk about this topic, “A-Jue, I should go cook.”
Seeing that he was avoiding answering him, Shang Jue’s eyes immediately dimmed a lot, and he took his hand and buried his head in his room with a movement that could not be considered gentle.
Shen ChiTai’s expression froze, and he hurriedly tried to push him away, “Shang Jue, I told you to stop, I told you to stop, did you hear me?”
Shang Jue dragged him into the room, slammed the door shut, and slammed the emotionless face on the door, supporting his hands on the door.
“Brother.” The alpha’s voice was low and hoarse, and the expression was taut.
Shen ChiTai’s moving pupil condensed a little, and he didn’t look at him properly.
Shang Jue forced his face with his hand, pinched his chin and forced the other party to look at his eyes. Looking at his two thin lips, his throat rolled back and forth uncontrollably.
“I don’t like other people touching you!”
Shen ChiTai patiently said to him: “Xu Chen is not someone else, he is my boyfriend.”
Shang Jue’s face became cold, and a sarcasm flashed across his lips, boyfriend? He hated these three words the most, and it was said from Shen ChiTai’s mouth.
Shen ChiTai tried to push him away slowly, to make him relax his vigilance. In the next second, Omega watched him lower his head and cover him, his lips were hot, and it was the familiar feeling again.
The man kissed his lips more and more unscrupulously, and his tongue tried to open his tightly closed teeth.
Alpha’s rich information filled the tip of Shen ChiTai’s nose, Burgundy red wine, this was the first thing he could think of. His mind was dizzy, and affected by Alpha’s information, his body also gradually became sluggish.
This was the first time that Alpha had released aggressive pheromones to him, suppressing and forcing him to do this annoying thing.
He didn’t take the lead in pushing Shang Jue away, but instead made the other party mistakenly think that this was the default.
In this way, he let the man attack his mouth again and again. When Omega came back to his senses and pushed him away, he raised his hand and slapped the other hard.
“You’re too much!” He glared at Alpha with disgust, and his trembling hands at his side clenched into fists.
Finally, he slowly let go, stared at Shang Jue’s unbelievable face for a few seconds, turned his head and speeded up his pace out of the room and slammed the door shut.
Shang Jue turned his head, reached out his hand and touched his face that had been knocked crooked by the other party, his hot eyes gradually calmed down, and he lowered his head and stared at his hand.
What the hell is he doing?
He had clearly warned himself not to scare Shen ChiTai, but the scene he saw at the cat cafe today almost drove him crazy.
Moreover, this strange feeling.
He touched the lips of the person he had kissed with his hand. How could a man’s lips be so soft and fragrant? The air was full of his brother’s taste.
