MFIMM Chapter 54

Misunderstanding Resolved

“Ah!” Lin Xi cried out briefly as Pei Jiashu suddenly pressed his entire body against him, burying his face in the hollow of his shoulder.

“I don’t like the New Year,” Pei Jiashu suddenly said.

“Huh?” Lin Xi’s instinctive impulse to push Pei Jiashu away abruptly stopped. He could only let Pei Jiashu continue, “During the New Year, I’m always alone. I don’t want to go home, but I can’t defy my father. There are always many annoying relatives, buzzing around my ears like flies.”

“You’re the only one who spends the New Year with me,” Pei Jiashu tightened his arms and hugged Lin Xi.

This embrace contained too many emotions, and Lin Xi’s memories went back a long time.

Although he initially noticed Pei Jiashu because of the rain that year, he had also “accidentally” encountered Pei Jiashu many times later.

As a young master and an excellent student, Pei Jiashu was always surrounded by many people, but Lin Xi often saw Pei Jiashu alone, lost in thought.

At that time, Pei Jiashu looked sensitive and fragile, as if his soul was trapped in his body.

But as soon as someone appeared nearby, Pei Jiashu would put on that mask again, with a gentle smile on his face. Only Lin Xi, who was secretly watching from the doorway, noticed his fleeting fatigue.

Thinking about it now, how could Pei Jiashu, living in such a high-pressure family, not be tired?

“Pei Jiashu, why did you say those things to me when I confessed to you at the graduation ceremony?” Lin Xi’s gaze was fixed on Pei Jiashu.

Although he knew that Pei Jiashu’s nature was not as good as he had imagined, it wasn’t that bad either.

Perhaps everything had a reason.

A trace of pain flashed in Pei Jiashu’s eyes. He wanted to continue burying his face in Lin Xi’s neck, as if that would allow him to avoid everything he didn’t want to face.

But Lin Xi stubbornly looked at Pei Jiashu, wanting an answer.

Pei Jiashu’s lips moved, “I’m sorry, I really didn’t mean to.”

“If you didn’t mean to, then why?”

Lin Xi’s intuition told him that only now could he force an answer from Pei Jiashu. Otherwise, he would never be able to pry open Pei Jiashu’s mouth.

“Because… because I didn’t want to hurt you,” Pei Jiashu shouted at Lin Xi, who was stunned. “What does that mean?”

Pei Jiashu couldn’t escape Lin Xi’s questioning and wanted to repeat his old trick of blocking Lin Xi’s mouth with his own, but Lin Xi didn’t give him the chance this time. He turned his head, and Pei Jiashu’s lips landed on the corner of his mouth.

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll divorce you right away, and you can spend the rest of your life alone,” Lin Xi said angrily to Pei Jiashu.

Sure enough, Pei Jiashu panicked, “No.”

He acted like a headless fly, sometimes covering his head, sometimes tentatively grabbing Lin Xi’s hand.

Lin Xi bit his lip, watching Pei Jiashu struggle, and began to wonder if he had gone too far.

But wasn’t divorce something he often talked about? Why was Pei Jiashu reacting so strongly?

“I’ll tell you everything, just don’t leave me,” Pei Jiashu looked at Lin Xi pitifully.

The room wasn’t brightly lit; the light was somewhat dim. Pei Jiashu’s gaze was entirely focused on Lin Xi, not noticing anything else.

Lin Xi’s conscience was pricking him. He hugged Pei Jiashu’s neck, as if to comfort him and to absolve himself of guilt, and kissed Pei Jiashu on his own initiative.

It was just a fleeting kiss, but Pei Jiashu seemed very happy.

He wanted to kiss again, but Lin Xi stopped his mouth in time, “Tell me everything first, then I’ll let you kiss.”

“My parents were in a family marriage. They were also a 100% pheromone match, and should have been happily married, but that wasn’t the case. My father only married my papa for the sake of the alliance. Papa’s health gradually deteriorated after giving birth to me, and he was unhappy. He passed away before I was even ten years old.”

Lin Xi had seen the photos in Pei Jiashu’s bedroom and thought that Pei Jiashu’s papa had just passed away early. He hadn’t realized there was so much more to it.

“It’s all in the past,” Lin Xi patted Pei Jiashu’s back.

Pei Jiashu continued, “My father had very high expectations for me. From elementary school, he arranged for me to do all sorts of things. My teachers said that I had a bad personality, so he demanded that I smile at school and be friendly to everyone.”

“Later, when I went to high school, some omegas would write me love letters. My father would send people to follow me all day long. As soon as he found out, he would go to those omegas’ parents and have them transfer schools.”

Pei Jiashu’s emotions became more agitated as he spoke. Lin Xi was dumbfounded. “Does your father still send people to follow you now?”

“No.” Pei Jiashu shook his head. “Rejecting you was just because whenever someone confessed to me, I would think of what happened back then. I…”

Lin Xi put his hand on Pei Jiashu’s back and patted it gently.

He had never imagined things to be like this.

Pei Jiashu looked at Lin Xi cautiously, “It was all my fault back then. Don’t be angry, and don’t leave me.”

Lin Xi’s heart stung a little, but they were only in a fake marriage. He would leave sooner or later.

At this moment, Lin Xi still went against his better judgement and said, “Okay.”

“You’re not angry anymore? Then I want a kiss,” Pei Jiashu pouted at Lin Xi.

Lin Xi’s pupils shook. Was he spoiling Pei Jiashu too much? How dare this guy take an inch after being given a foot? Were they in a relationship where they could just kiss whenever they wanted?

Perhaps because Lin Xi didn’t move for a long time, Pei Jiashu’s mouth slowly drooped. If he had ears, he could definitely see them drooping too.

He buried himself in Lin Xi’s body like a large dog, rubbing against him. Lin Xi’s bathrobe was easily messed up by Pei Jiashu’s rubbing.

“Are you still angry with me?” he said in a muffled voice. “Then hit me, hit me until you feel better.”

As he said that, Pei Jiashu grabbed Lin Xi’s hand and pretended to hit himself.

Lin Xi frowned and pulled his hand back from his grip. He carefully chose his words, wanting to explain their relationship to Pei Jiashu without hurting or stimulating him.

But Pei Jiashu buried himself in his chest, looking at him with expectant eyes, “Didn’t you say that you would kiss me after I told you everything? Does that mean your words don’t count, and you’re going to leave me too?”

Pei Jiashu’s voice was like ice, making Lin Xi shudder.

“Kiss, kiss, kiss. I’ll kiss you.”

Lin Xi gave up resisting. He leaned against the pillow, wondering how everything had turned out this way.

Oh well, just kiss him then. Anyway, he had already lost his first kiss, so a few more kisses wouldn’t make a difference.

Pei Jiashu immediately came over like a dog who had gotten a bone, wagging his tail. It was as if everything from before was just a facade.

One was an alpha in his estrus period, and the other was an omega who was almost a 100% match with the alpha in his estrus period.

Kissing like this, it was too easy for things to escalate.

The kisses went from his forehead all the way to his neck. Lin Xi looked at Pei Jiashu with unfocused eyes as their pheromones constantly intertwined in the air.

When his clothes were unbuttoned, Lin Xi briefly regained consciousness, but he was quickly aroused by Pei Jiashu’s teasing.

A pair of large hands roamed over every part of his body, and a low voice repeated in his ear, “You’re so beautiful.”

Lin Xi was like a bone being licked by a dog, licked all over by Pei Jiashu.

His skin was already pale, and red marks would appear with just a little sucking. A quick glance showed that there wasn’t a single patch of good skin on his body.

He lay on the pillow, covered in sweat despite it being the dead of winter. His fair skin glowed faintly under the light, like a piece of fine mutton fat jade, making Pei Jiashu unable to put it down.

“Have you kissed enough, dog Pei…” Lin Xi gasped for breath. Pei Jiashu was still nuzzling his nape, and Lin Xi was even thinking of just letting Pei Jiashu bite him.

He had heard that most alphas in their estrus period would be more normal if they bit an omega’s gland.

He now missed the Pei Jiashu who would only bicker with him.

At least he wouldn’t do such beastly things to him.

But Pei Jiashu was just sniffing there, like smelling a fragrant flower, which although fragrant, he wouldn’t think of eating.

“If you’re uncomfortable, just bite me,” Lin Xi said sleepily. He was so tired from messing around with Pei Jiashu for so long that he could barely keep his eyes open.

Hearing this, Pei Jiashu opened his mouth and bit the gland. Lin Xi’s body tensed, but he couldn’t help but relax.

But Pei Jiashu released his mouth and licked the gland again and again.

This was even more uncomfortable than biting. Lin Xi’s body tightened, his legs twisted together, and all the blood in his body rushed down below.

“Don’t… lick,” Lin Xi said intermittently.

Pei Jiashu obediently stopped, wrapped his arms around Lin Xi’s waist, turned him over, pried open Lin Xi’s lips, and kissed him. He kissed him for who knows how long before letting him go.

“Goodnight kiss.”

Lin Xi was both angry and helpless with Pei Jiashu. After Pei Jiashu woke up, he would definitely ask Pei Jiashu for mental damage fees, a lot of them.

The next day, Lin Xi was woken up by kisses again. He looked up at Pei Jiashu and almost kicked him out of bed.

Lin Xi’s lips were already swollen, burning with pain. He pushed the man away and went to the bathroom to look in the mirror.

Sure enough, his lips had almost turned into sausages.

The culprit swaggered over and hugged him, “I want you to brush my teeth for me.”

“I’ll brush your big…” Lin Xi was about to curse, but Pei Jiashu’s face suddenly turned ugly, ready to accuse Lin Xi at any moment.

Lin Xi swallowed the breath, “I said I’ll brush them for you.”

Pei Jiashu was happy now. Lin Xi squeezed out the toothpaste, faced Lin Xi, brushed his own teeth while brushing Pei Jiashu’s. Pei Jiashu looked at him with a silly smile.

He looked up at the mirror. Lin Xi seemed to be in his arms, completely enveloped by him.

All the marks he had kissed were on the exposed section of his neck.

This way, no one would covet Lin Xi.

Pei Jiashu was very satisfied with his masterpiece.

“You’ll stay with me today too, right?” Pei Jiashu asked Lin Xi.

“Yes, yes, yes.” Lin Xi had lost all strength and means.
