Chapter 60

    The subsequent development of the story didn’t deviate much from Rong Yi’s expectations.

    After all, Rong Yi himself had similar experiences. He naturally became close to some Omega friends, with a completely innocent heart. But some people inevitably saw him as an Alpha due to his appearance, and in their subconscious, different feelings sprouted during their daily interactions.

    In comparison, Chen Ke Yao was far more guilty. After all, he was truly an Alpha, and a tall and handsome one at that. Rong Yi put himself in the shoes of that unlucky junior, feeling that this pitiful-looking guy in front of him was simply committing a sin.

    Just as Rong Yi had experienced, that junior naturally confessed his feelings, and Chen Ke Yao naturally refused.

    After hearing Chen Ke Yao’s reasons, the unwilling junior said, “You haven’t tried it, how do you know you really can’t be with an Omega?”

    “So he wanted to prove to me that I’m not as unaffected by Omega pheromones as I claim.”

    “And he failed?”

    “No,” Chen Ke Yao said, “He succeeded.”

    “…”

    “I was really at a loss back then. I once thought that even if I differentiated into an Alpha, I could get rid of this kind of instinct. It turns out it was all fake. My body really does react to Omega pheromones, even if I have no feelings for the person emitting the scent. I even had the urge to have a relationship with someone I didn’t love at all. That feeling was like my mind and body were completely torn apart.”

    “And then you guys…”

    “No,” Chen Ke Yao shook his head, “Almost. I was too desperate at the time, my head was filled with Ms. Lan’s words to me when I was a child. Her years of resentment, pain, her ruined life, were all about to be replayed on me. That was clearly a path I had resolved from a very young age that I absolutely, definitely, didn’t want to take. But it was no use, I could hardly control that impulse. I couldn’t accept that kind of self, I felt particularly disgusting.”

    “No,” Rong Yi quickly leaned forward, reached out and hugged him, letting him rest his forehead on his shoulder, “You’ve got it backwards. Because your heart is so pure, that’s why you have such a strong sense of guilt. And in the end, you resisted it, right?”

    After he said that, the head resting on his shoulder trembled twice, and a embarrassed laughter came out.

    “I threw up uncontrollably,” Chen Ke Yao said softly, “Scared him silly.”

    “Uh…”

    “Actually, he was already frightened before, because he didn’t expect my reaction to be so big,” Chen Ke Yao sighed softly, “Everyone was young at that time, he probably regretted it soon after.”

    “From then on, you would throw up when you smelled Omega scents?”

    Chen Ke Yao raised his head, looking at him cautiously: “That… don’t get angry when I say this.”

    Rong Yi frowned: “What is it now?”

    “The doctor said that, in fact, this kind of stress response shouldn’t recur easily after leaving that environment. The reason I’m like this now is probably because I’ve been giving myself psychological cues.”

    “What do you mean?”

    “It’s just… this kind of stress response makes me feel very safe,” Chen Ke Yao said, “I thought I would never be able to fall in love with an Omega. So, I’ve been subconsciously and repeatedly suggesting to myself, so that I can have a safety valve in case I have to.”

    “…”

    “I never thought that one day this problem would bring me so much trouble,” Chen Ke Yao looked at him, “Rong Yi, you are an accident in my life.”

    Rong Yi was speechless.

    He wanted to kiss him again, but he was afraid that he would still feel uncomfortable.

    “But it’s really much better now,” Chen Ke Yao grabbed his hand, “I used to be able to throw up just by thinking about it a little bit. But look, I soaked in your sweet smell for so long last night, and I still persevered.”

    Mentioned by him like this, a large segment of shameful memories quickly revived in Rong Yi’s mind.

    “You last night… after I fell asleep…” Too embarrassing to say, his voice went hoarse halfway through.

    “I didn’t come in on purpose,” Chen Ke Yao was also a little embarrassed, “But I would really die if I didn’t deal with it.”

    “…”

    “I didn’t peek either…”

    Rong Yi sighed.

    “Then, is there anything I can help with to get rid of this psychological cue?” he asked.

    He was too embarrassed to say the other half of the sentence. Not even allowed to peek, too miserable, when will I have the opportunity to feel his big pectoral muscles myself like this.

    Chen Ke Yao suddenly laughed after hearing this.

    “Actually, my doctor mentioned before that it would be best if I could bring the partner with me during the consultation.”

    Rong Yi nodded immediately: “Okay, when is the next time?”

    Chen Ke Yao was still smiling, but had no intention of answering at all, just kept looking at him.

    Rong Yi was a little dazed: “What’s wrong?”

    “My, partner,” Chen Ke Yao said while smiling, then pointed at Rong Yi, “You.”

    Rong Yi’s face turned red: “What’s wrong, isn’t it me? Aren’t we now… that something. Did I misunderstand?”

    “No,” Chen Ke Yao reached out and hugged him, “I’m just too happy.”

    “…”

    “The ups and downs of life,” he said, “When I couldn’t buy a plane ticket the night before yesterday, I was so anxious that I almost pulled out all my hair. After refreshing for a long time, I finally saw someone return one, and the landing time was after the meet-and-greet. I got off the plane in a hurry, only to find that not only did you not return to the hotel, but you even turned off your phone. I felt like my life was about to end at that time.”

    “…”

    Rong Yi didn’t say a word, and silently ruffled the hair on the back of his head until it was messy.

    “Why don’t you ask me why I have the key card to your room?” Chen Ke Yao suddenly asked.

    “You booked the room, it’s easy for you to tamper with it.”

    “Not angry?”

    Generally speaking, this kind of behavior does feel a bit like a dangerous element. But Rong Yi only hated that this person was too safe, fearing that nothing inappropriate would happen even if he stripped naked and crawled into his bed.

    On the contrary, Chen Ke Yao might throw up and be sent to the hospital.

    Thinking of this, Rong Yi suddenly asked: “By the way, then you and that junior of yours…”

    “We didn’t contact each other much after that.” Chen Ke Yao replied quickly.

    “Was it because that incident alarmed both parents, and as a result you broke up, and the two parents hit it off?”

    “…”

    “Is it?”

    “I’m done for,” Chen Ke Yao said, “How did I find such a smart partner, I’m afraid I’m going to be completely tamed in the future.”

    This person’s mouth suddenly became sweet, but Rong Yi still caught his intention to change the subject.

    “I’m not that petty,” Rong Yi said, “Your cheap younger brother has already found true love and got married, that’s great.”

    “Yeah,” Chen Ke Yao said, “I think I’ll be there soon too.”

    “…” Rong Yi felt incredible, “How did you become so good at talking?”

    “Really?” Chen Ke Yao said, “I also find it a little strange, how did your temper become so good.”

    As soon as these words came out, it was still that familiar, unpleasant aura. Rong Yi secretly felt angry in his heart, but couldn’t help but want to breathe a sigh of relief.

    Immediately afterwards, he suddenly thought of a question that seemed very strange now.

    “Since you know that Mo Yufei is that kind of person, why did you give me the ticket he gave you?”

    “…Didn’t you overhear it,” Chen Ke Yao said in a bad tone, “You pick up trash yourself.”

    Rong Yi moved a little distance away from him, frowning and staring at him.

    Chen Ke Yao silently shifted his gaze: “…What other reason could there be, it’s just because I’m stupid.”

    Rong Yi frowned: “Are you talking about me or yourself?”

    Chen Ke Yao hesitated, his expression subtle. After being awkward for a while, he muttered in a low voice: “In the end, you’re not that smart if you like him, are you?”

    This bastard, he was still saying two minutes ago that he “found such a smart partner.”

    Under Rong Yi’s sharp gaze, Chen Ke Yao’s attitude gradually softened, and finally he curled his lips and spread his hands: “I’m talking about myself. If I wasn’t stupid, could I have done such a dumb thing?”

    “Could it be to compensate me?” Rong Yi asked.

    Chen Ke Yao put the ticket in that pile of merchandise on the second day of Rong Yi’s high fever. And the reason why Rong Yi was sick at that time was because he was forced to live in his room, affected by pheromones.

    So, this is probably a very awkward way of apologizing.

    “More or less…” Chen Ke Yao’s expression still looked a little regretful, “I didn’t think much at that time. I just felt… this thing might make you happy.”

    “…”

    “As a result, you were happy,” Chen Ke Yao said, “I was almost pissed to death.”

    “I wasn’t very happy either.”

    Rong Yi said.

    After all, he had been obsessed with that artist for so long, and he suddenly collapsed, so he couldn’t help but feel complicated.

    Idols are a very magical existence. When you like him, of course you can indulge in fantasy about all the romantic plots that happen between you and him. But those cannot be realized. If the other party really crosses that line, he will no longer be the most perfect person in your heart.

    However, Rong Yi no longer needs a person to give him fantasy.

    Now he has someone by his side who can give him reality, and can also give him the future.

    “It’s over, no one is happy except that lunatic,” Chen Ke Yao was very depressed, “Even stupid can’t describe my brain misfiring.”

    Rong Yi couldn’t help laughing.

    Actually, he was really very happy when he got the ticket.

    But it can’t compare to now. When Chen Ke Yao said just now that he just wanted to make him happy, he really became very, very happy. Happiness is probably a catalyst, which can infinitely expand the most simple joy and make people feel ecstatic.

    The only fly in the ointment is that at such a moment, he still has to forcibly resist the urge to kiss him. Chen Ke Yao doesn’t know how many times he has thrown up from last night until now, and he is afraid that his body will not be able to bear it if this continues.

    While he was worried about Chen Ke Yao, Chen Ke Yao was also a little worried about him.

    “Are you really not hungry,” he pointed to the box of snacks on the coffee table, “It’s all cold.”

    Rong Yi turned his head and glanced, and suddenly a thought popped into his head.

    “You want to eat shrimp wontons, don’t you,” he grabbed Chen Ke Yao’s hand and shook it hard, “I’ll take you there now!”
