Chapter 42 - A little bit

Yunfeng blankly looked up at the ceiling. 

Hana, who was still straddling him, patted his cheeks. "What? Are you upset?" 

"No," he rolled to the side, hugging his sister's pink pillows. It was safe to say he was slightly disappointed. As for the reason why, he was still not sure. He did not have any feelings for Muchen, but at the same time, he felt a longing for him. 

That could be chalked up to pheromones. 

'Being an omega is hard,' 

In his past life, he had been a beta for most of his life. He did not face any such problems. Technically, he lived the life of a virgin hermit. Even though many alphas were drawn to his beauty and his family position, he never felt any sort of feelings for anyone. But the moment he became an omega in this life, he met that crazy alpha Muchen and, boom, he was floored by him. 

It was still too sudden. 

Hana plopped down beside him and hugged him. "Can you give me his number?" 

"Shut up and leave me alone," he mumbled, snuggling deep into the pillow. 

"You are in my room, you brat." 

Yunfeng glared at her. 

"What is going on between you both, though? Can you tell me?" she gently patted his unruly hair. 

Yunfeng grunted. "I don't want to talk about it." 

"Come on, talking to someone can make you feel better. I swear I won't tell anyone. This secret is safe with me. After all, if those girls even get a sniff of Muchen's relationship with you, they might toilet paper our house." 

Yunfeng chuckled. "Aren't you one of those crazy girls?" 

"Tsk, come on, don't club me with those fujoshis. I'm a good little fan who supports and loves my dear Muchen." 

Once again, when his sister mentioned Muchen as hers, he felt a pang of anger. He simply gritted his teeth and ignored it. 'Fuck, I've gone to the deep side.' 

'Talk,' she hugged him slightly. 

Sighing, Yunfeng laid on his back. "I don't know where to start. We... we met under very strange circumstances. He was being chased by a gunman, and I was just on the way." 

"Oh my god, he is the reason you were shot?!" Hana shot up. 

"Yeah, I told mum. Didn't she tell you?" 

"NO! No one told me anything!!" Huffing and puffing, she laid back down. "How did it happen?" 

Yunfeng explained the whole ordeal to her. 

"After that, you both kept in contact?" 

"No, who wants to talk to a crazy man? I just wanted to stay as far away from him as possible." Yunfeng rolled his eyes. 

"Then what happened?" 

"He kind of dropped by my work place... I realized he was there to check on my wounds. That's when I thought, 'Oh, maybe he's not such a bad guy after all.' Then we met again and again and... I don't know." He cupped his slightly red face. "I don't know what's up with him. He's a crazy bastard, but... I kind of, very minutely, like him." 

"AGHHHH!!!!!!" squealing, Hana jumped up on the bed. 

"Oh my god, stop screaming," he rushed to cup her mouth. "I said lightly." 

"Yes, you like him!" 

Yunfeng sighed. "Only lightly." He sat there, punching the pillow. 

"And he likes you too!" Hana hugged him tightly. "Oh my god, Muchen is going to be my brother-in-law. Oh, this is such a dream come true. He's going to become family." 

"He doesn't like me," Yunfeng pushed her away slightly. 

"Huh? Do you think anyone would drive so far to see someone they don't like? Tsk, you silly innocent brother of mine, dear Muchen has fallen for you." She pinched his face. "I do see the appeal. You're a handsome guy. But not as handsome as my Muchen. Didn't know why he chose you?" 

"Shut up." Yunfeng hugged the pillow again. Muchen had other reasons he dropped by. It was because of his rut. 

"Shit, I forgot to remind him!" He ran back to his room and found his phone buried in his duvet. 

"What are you going to remind him about?" Hana had silently followed him in. 

"N-nothing. Go out," he pushed her out. 

"Come on, tell me the juicy details." 

"Nope~" With a grin, he closed the door on her face. 

Drafting a message was much more challenging than he had realized. He had to vaguely approach the subject of rut with him. To a nomad like Muchen, it might sound like sex advice. 

'I don't want that…' 

'How can I decently tell him, "You will have a hard-on for days and you have to stay in to prevent attacking people," without offending him?'
