Chapter 73

In fact, those two handprints were mainly due to Xie Fuyi’s delicate skin.

Last night in the car, when Ye Baixiao supported his waist, even a slight pressure left two finger marks.

Lin Qiming remained motionless for a while, and Xie Fuyi, lying there, asked in a muffled voice, “How is it?”

Only then did Lin Qiming come back to his senses. However, he couldn’t directly question it, after all, what he was doing now wasn’t much different from what Ye Baixiao had done.

In a gentle tone tinged with hoarseness, Lin Qiming replied, “It seems like a knock, the skin is bruised a bit. I’ll apply some ointment and massage it, so it won’t hurt as much.”

“Then hurry up,” Xie Fuyi waved his hand, indifferent as he nodded.

Lin Qiming quickly fetched the ointment and knelt by the sofa, applying it to Xie Fuyi’s waist.

The cool ointment melted in the warmth of his palms and was gently spread on Xie Fuyi’s fair skin, shimmering enticingly.

Lin Qiming’s hands almost covered every inch of his waist and back. He couldn’t help but marvel at the slender waist, which he could almost encircle with his two big hands. The firm and flexible waist had his palms sticking to it like magnets.

Xie Fuyi’s body softened under the massage, feeling a tingling sensation rising from the depths of his heart. His voice trembled as he asked, “Mm, is it done?”

Lin Qiming couldn’t bear to let go of his hands, only coaxing in a hoarse voice, “Almost.”

But his actions became more and more excessive, his palms sliding from the waist to the front, over and over again…

Xie Fuyi’s skin blushed faintly, and he grumbled with a trembling voice, “It’s a waist injury, my front is fine.”

Xie Fuyi couldn’t help but release some pheromones.

In an instant, a sweet scent of peach wine enveloped the air, and Lin Qiming became instantly excited, leaning forward unconsciously.

At that moment, a cold and furious voice rang out.

“What are you two doing?”

Following the sound, Xie Fuyi saw Ye Baixiao’s tall figure at the door, his deep and dark eyes like frozen ice.

As soon as Ye Baixiao entered the living room, he saw Xie Fuyi’s slightly reddened eyes, his clothes half undone, and another alpha sprawled over him, his hands wandering…

Ye Baixiao’s usually calm and unruffled eyes were now almost turbulent with rage, as if he wanted to tear the alpha apart instantly.

His icy black eyes shot out like arrows, a mix of endless anger and pheromones attacking Lin Qiming instantly.

Lin Qiming, upon seeing the imposing figure, immediately raised his guard. However, facing Ye Baixiao’s overwhelming strength, his feeble attack was like hitting a stone with an eggshell, shattering inch by inch under Ye Baixiao’s powerful pheromones.

Lin Qiming’s face turned pale, blood trickling from his throat. He grunted and took several steps back, looking at Ye Baixiao with lingering fear.

Ye Baixiao gazed at him as if he were looking at a dead man, his body tense and rigid. Just as he was about to take action, Xie Fuyi regained his senses and stood up, blocking Lin Qiming, and said angrily, “Ye Baixiao? What are you going to do? This is my home. It’s not your turn to play the boss here.”

Ye Baixiao stood there, his posture straight, but his back stiff. He suppressed his anger and looked at Lin Qiming, his eyes cold. “Still not leaving?”

Useless trash, deceiving a simple omega, and yet Xie Fuyi still believed in him so blindly.

He felt suffocated and frustrated, almost as if he wanted to spit out blood.

Lin Qiming was seriously injured, and now he had a clear understanding of Ye Baixiao’s strength. The other could easily crush him. He whispered to Xie Fuyi, “Fuyi, I’ll go back first and come see you another day.”

With that, he hurriedly left, but his expression turned cold as he turned away.

Ye Baixiao turned his gaze back to the person in front of him, explaining softly, “He was bullying you.”

Xie Fuyi snorted coldly. “He was just applying medicine and giving me a massage. Besides, we’re both alphas, what could happen with a little touching?”

Massage? Touching tofu-like skin?

Ye Baixiao’s expression darkened as he suddenly remembered that the young master had been mistaken about his gender since childhood, and the Xie family had indulged him without correcting him. After all, the Xie family thought they had their protection, and no one dared to act recklessly. But unfortunately, there were still those lascivious people who took advantage of his gullibility.

Before he left, it was necessary to clean up all the people around his fiancé.

“I’m just worried about you. Don’t drink so much in the future; it will give you a headache.” Ye Baixiao didn’t argue further. He said in a deep voice as he put the food box he was carrying on the coffee table, “This is a stomach-warming dish I made myself. Try it.”

Xie Fuyi knew about Ye Baixiao’s craftsmanship. He twitched his nose slightly, and raised his chin just a bit, resembling a proud little cat, reluctantly accepting the gesture.

“Since this is your apology gift, I’ll reluctantly accept it,” Xie Fuyi snorted, glaring at him. “Finished speaking? If so, you can leave.”

A hint of amusement flickered in Ye Baixiao’s cold eyes. “This doesn’t count,” he said, opening a delicately wrapped gift box. “This is the gift for you.”

The beautifully soft light blue collar shimmered under the light, clearly valuable.

Ye Baixiao whispered, “This is the latest collar. It can protect your glands and suppress pheromone leakage. There’s no code it can’t unlock.”

But Xie Fuyi wasn’t pleased at all. He widened his eyes at the collar, thinking the other was insulting him!

“I don’t want it!”

However, Ye Baixiao wouldn’t allow him to refuse. After all, omegas being single outside was too dangerous.

“Be obedient. This material is light and thin; you won’t feel a thing when wearing it.” He stepped forward and looped it around Xie Fuyi.

Instantly, the familiar scent of peach wine filled the air, making Ye Baixiao’s Adam’s apple bob. He could almost taste the juicy peach with just a bite…

But he restrained himself. He took out the collar and helped Xie Fuyi put it on, making it look elegant and instantly concealing all pheromone scents.

“It’s dangerous for an Omega to release pheromones recklessly outside. With this, you can go out more freely,” Ye Baixiao instructed.

“Mind your own business!” Xie Fuyi grumbled and kicked him lightly.

Ye Baixiao wasn’t offended. He pondered for a moment before speaking again, “I’m going to the Northern Border Wasteland to quell the rebellion soon, probably for three months. When I return, we’ll get married.”

Although there was peace within the Galo Empire, there were still aggressive Qiang Blood Clans and roving bandits in the Northern Border Wasteland. This time, with the Fu family’s assistance and the king’s request, he was tasked to pacify the rebellion within three months.

“Marriage?” Xie Fuyi was stunned. “Are you serious?”

Xie Fuyi: …You’d better not marry me, or I’ll send you to the grasslands!

Ye Baixiao nodded, then thought of something. His cold eyes narrowed slightly as he said seriously, “During these three months, don’t go out alone with those Alphas.”

…Or maybe before he left, he’d beat them all up. At the very least, they wouldn’t be able to get out of bed for three months.
