    Chapter 20 Take a breath!

    After realizing what kind of noise he had just made in front of the other party, Jiang Ci froze immediately. He quickly tightened his clothes and turned his head away.

    The beautiful omega gritted her teeth and swallowed the unbearable moan in her throat.He was only trying his best to hide his most vulnerable and shameful appearance, so he missed the flash of chuckle in Huo Xianfeng's eyes.

    "What's wrong?"

    The room was silent for a long time, and then Jiang Ci's slightly hoarse voice slowly said,

    "……fine."

    Probably feeling that this answer was not enough, he added another sentence to cover it up,

    "Just now, my throat was a little uncomfortable..."

    "oh."

    Huo Xianfeng didn't ask any more questions. He put away the medicine box and walked out.

    The sound of footsteps gradually became smaller, which clearly indicated that the owner had left this narrow and clean room. Jiang Ci heard it clearly and clearly felt an indescribable loss.

    He actually knew exactly why.

    After being marked, Alpha's pheromones will enter the omega's blood circulation, causing the latter to become extremely attached to the alpha that marked him. This is normal.

    At the same time, alpha will also have a strong desire to protect and comfort omega, which is mainly reflected in intimate behaviors.

    But Huo Xianfeng behaved calmly from beginning to end.As if completely unaffected by pheromones and instincts, as if... it had never marked him.

    "..."

    But this was originally just a forced purchase and sale. A strange and alienated way of getting along like this is the best.After all, his current low mood was just forced by pheromones and instinct.

    Although he knew that this was just a normal physiological reaction, and Jiang Ci hated things that were genetically manipulated, as an omega, no matter how he convinced himself, he still felt a strong sense of loss the moment the boy left.and sad.

    Jiang Ci touched the silver ring on his wrist, which shone with a warm light. Xiao X's language system was damaged, so he could only comfort him in this way.

    At this time, Huo Xianfeng walked in again and handed over a nutritional supplement.

    "hungry?"

    He saw the beautiful omega on the bed suddenly raised her head and looked towards him, her slightly red eyes drooping, and the loss and grievance in her eyes had not yet dissipated.It's like a surprising stone was suddenly thrown into the cold lake, creating ripples of joy one after another.

    Huo Xianfeng's heart suddenly tightened, and he caught a glimpse of the nutritional supplement in his hand. The special glass tube was filled with a reddish-pink slightly thick liquid, which glowed beautifully under the yellowish light.

    That color...is a bit like this omega's eye color.

    Between the gorgeous red and soft pink, under the warm light, there are sparkling ripples.

    "..."

    Jiang Ci's eyelashes trembled, and when she saw the young man handing the nutritional supplements to her, she suddenly realized that this guy had not left, but had gone to get the nutritional supplements.

    He still said in the same lazy tone as last night,

    "Here, it's strawberry flavored."

    "..."

    Although the earth became a Death Star and all living things that once existed perished in that terrible disaster, human civilization still persisted tenaciously.

    These include the flavors of various fruits. Although fruits are difficult to grow, their flavors can be simulated again using chemical synthesis agents.

    However, this kind of flavored nutritional supplements are usually very expensive. Huo Xianfeng, who has little money, usually only buys the tasteless ones. After all, his appetite is not high and he only needs to replenish his body's energy.

    But usually when there is a good harvest, Tang tea will be a little more luxurious and buy some nutritional supplements with fruit sweetness simulants added.

    Thinking about it, the squeamish omega would also like this.

    Huo Xianfeng raised his eyebrows when he saw that he didn't answer for a long time.

    "dislike?"

    "..."

    Jiang Ci turned her face slightly, tried hard to flatten the corners of her lips that wanted to raise, and chanted crazily in her heart

    This is the legacy of temporary marking.

    This is a hallucination caused by pheromones.

    This is the confusion of genes trying to reproduce.

    In short, it’s just a tube of cheap nutritional supplements!What's so fun about this?!

    After trying hard to give himself some psychological hints, the Major General finally didn't show a too happy expression. He looked away, maintaining his usual cold expression.

    "I do not need.

    In fact, he should have refused firmly, but he consumed too much yesterday and Jiang Ci was indeed hungry.So he struggled in his mind for a long time before slowly reaching out and pinching the other end of the glass tube.

    The silver-haired omega turned away,

    "How much does it cost? I'll pay you back later."

    ——Jiang Ci doesn’t like to owe favors.

    Especially a strange alpha who had just marked himself.

    The beautiful omega lowered her eyes, and her silver eyelashes were long and thick, covering her beautiful eyes and casting shadows like clusters of flowers on her fair skin.Beautiful and fragile, like a rose tremblingly stretching out its buds from the snowy mountains.

    Any alpha here would probably want to take out his heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys and put them in front of him, and he would not be willing to ask for money.

    "In this case"

    But Huo Xianfeng was different. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said unceremoniously,

    "As for the accommodation fees, medical fees, and artificial nursing fees, do you want to pay them as well?"

    Jiang Ci looked up in shock: "...?"

    ???

    In fact, if you break it down in detail, this request can be considered reasonable.

    Only if this conversation didn't happen between a pair of AOs who had just received intimate bite mark marks last night.

    Jiang Ci felt that he choked again.

    "……Knot!"

    He grabbed the nutrient supplement in Huo Xianfeng's hand with a "pop", and put a light red mark on the latter's palm.

    "Make a price!"

    At this moment, the crimson eyes were very cold and sharp, and the tone sounded very distant, but Huo Xiangfeng could hear a hint of anger in it.

    Anyway, Zhi Meihua has been obtained and placed in Xiao X’s secret cabinet.Jiang Ci only needs to stay here for a day or two, and then go back after regaining his mobility.

    He angrily could not think of a temporary mark, just treat it as a bite from a dog. After a while, when the metabolism is completed, he will no longer have anything to do with this person...

    Huo Xianfeng rubbed his palms. He was not angry at all, and even felt a little happy in his heart. He slowly admired the sullen expression on the other person's overly beautiful face——

    Her skin, which was originally pale and almost transparent due to the injury, now had a cutesy blush due to anger.

    "Then just for good luck——"

    The young man opened his mouth and said,

    "The total is 6,666,000, how about it?"

    Jiang Ci: "..."

    ????

    More than six million?!!

    The beautiful omega raised her head in disbelief.

    This shabby house, the cheap repair fluids and nutrients are probably not even worth a fraction of six thousand.This guy is obviously a lion opening his mouth and taking advantage of the situation.

    As the young master of the Jiang family, it is one thing to not be short of money, but it is another thing to be taken advantage of.

    "you……!"

    It was just that as soon as Jiang Ci spoke the first word, the other party took over the conversation.

    "Well, there was an explosion in the auction house in the underground city last night, and an omega appeared, causing a lot of bloodshed..."

    Huo Xianfeng stared at him with a smile.

    "Well, I guess the city lord is looking for someone all over the planet right now."

    Jiang·Wanted Criminal·Ci: "..."

    The beautiful omega showed an expression of disbelief, as if looking at an old and cunning fraudster.

    But unfortunately, people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

    After a moment of silence, Jiang Ci finally gritted his teeth and spoke,

    "account!"

    If it weren't for Tiandongxing who was outside the Imperial Bank's services, the Major General would have really wanted to throw a black card at this alpha's face!

    "Here, here."

    Huo Xianfeng took out the optical brain very quickly.

    While he was thinking that this squeamish omega still looks good when he looks fierce, he defrauded the other party of a large amount of money without any psychological burden.

    Since Tiandong Star is a huge underground black market, there are naturally some gray transaction capital chains and account banks, which are completely independent of the Imperial Financial Administration.

    As long as you have an account and money, you can trade.

    No one will ask you where the money comes from, and no one will ask you where the money goes.

    After being cheated, Jiang Ci rolled himself up into a quilt, obviously refusing to talk to this cunning alpha anymore.

    In all his life, he has never suffered such a big loss!

    However, since the Major General was so popular, there were still some things that went well for him, such as the fact that he paid for it, so now, he took it as a matter of course and occupied the only bed in this cabin with peace of mind.

    Then he pushed the cunning alpha to the window to get some cold air.

    The temperature outside was more than ten degrees below zero, but Huo Xianfeng didn't mind at all. He picked up a bottle of loose wine and sipped it slowly.

    The room fell silent for a moment.

    The young man glanced at the long series of numbers that appeared on his account, his eyes dark.

    ——He probably knows several key information points about this omega’s identity.

    Silver-haired and crimson-eyed, he can control mechas, has received professional military training, and has a lot of personal wealth.

    Although basically no omega would worry about money, the fact that he was able to withdraw more than six million from Tiandongxing's gray account without blinking an eye speaks volumes.

    It's just that Huo Xianfeng can't find the detailed identity information of omegas or military personnel now.

    But that didn't mean that he couldn't guess it.

    Huo Xianfeng took a sip of the spicy wine, tapping the bottle with his index finger, and then slowly and calmly eliminated the impossible options one after another in his mind.

    "Hey you……"

    Jiang Ci suddenly spoke, with a forced indifference in his tone.

    "What is your name?"

    When Jiang Ci asked this question, he suddenly remembered that he was marked by a strange alpha who didn't even know his name last night.

    Even now, the other party's pheromones are flowing in the blood all over his body.

    Thinking about it this way, it’s just...

    Jiang Ci was so ashamed that she couldn't help but curl up her toes.

    But Huo Xianfeng didn't notice the chaotic and numb thoughts in Jiang Ci's heart.He just looked out the window, letting his black hair float faintly in the night wind.

    After a while, the young man lazily answered

    "——Huo Xianfeng."

    Huo Xianfeng?

    He didn't say the specific words, but at this second, the correct answer immediately appeared in Jiang Ci's mind.

    "It's...Marshal Huo Chao's Huo..."

    "Xianfeng...Xianyun Changfeng?"

    "Um."

    The young man raised his head, swallowed his drink, and responded casually.

    When Huo Xianfeng woke up that day, his mind was blank and he had no memory. However, after he escaped from the earth, he fled to the Asparagus star in the vast universe.

    The moment he landed, thousands of long winds blew by, and at that moment the young man suddenly felt that he should be called this name.

    Jiang Ci also felt that this name was very suitable for some reason.

    Because he has lived in a military academy and then in the army all year round, Jiang Ci has met too many alphas. They are all very similar. They have the natural arrogance and arrogance of alphas. Most of them are synonymous with well-developed limbs and simple minds.

    But this young man named Huo Xianfeng was different from all the alphas Jiang Ci had ever seen.

    Calm, rational, mysterious, and very cunning.

    Jiang Ci had no idea what this guy was thinking, and he didn't notice that his curiosity about this strange alpha boy was expanding crazily.

    But after those words, the room fell into silence.

    Huo Xianfeng was thinking about his plan. He had already found someone to prepare his identity information, and he also collected some information about the Zerg. However, there was not much information left about the battle that led to the fall of the earth.

    As for the mecha, after all the fuss yesterday, it would be difficult to sneak in again.

    But the only reward is probably the beautiful omega on the bed. Although helping each other make a temporary mark is unplanned, it has some benefits.

    That is, now the other person has to stay by his side.

    Huo Xianfeng was still very concerned about the strange floral fragrance, but if he directly asked him if he had tried it, he could only find other ways to circumvent it...

    For example, find out the identity of the other party, find out the medicine he used to disguise himself as beta, the inhibitors he has injected, and even all the drugs he has taken.

    as well as

    The purpose of the other party coming to Tiandong Star.

    At the same time, Jiang Ci didn't know that the other party was paying attention to him, and he was still struggling with whether he should tell the truth if Huo Xianfeng asked him his name later.

    Jiang Ci actually didn't trust this alpha he had just met, but the other person was kind to him.

    So...if the other party asks for his name later,

    ——Do you want to tell the truth?

    The silver-haired major general sat on the corner of the bed with his knees in his arms. He lowered his head and tightened and unclenched his fingers unconsciously, repeating this process until he was struggling for a long time in his heart before he suddenly realized -

    The other party didn't seem to want to ask his name.

    "..."

    The beautiful omega paused. He raised his head and looked over again with some disbelief. He saw the black-haired boy still looking out the window, seeming to be thinking seriously about something. The outline of his face looked bright under the yellowish light.Extraordinarily deep and beautiful,

    I just don’t know what the other person is thinking at this moment.

    But no matter what this alpha is thinking, there is one thing Jiang Ci is sure of——

    The other party indeed, completely ignored him.

    Therefore, there was really no intention of asking his name.

    Jiang·Sentimental·Porcelain: "..."

    The boy lazily leaned against the window, occasionally taking a sip from the wine bottle, as if the messy pile of garbage outside was more attractive than the beautiful omega on the bed.

    "..."

    Probably because this resentful and shocked look was too hot, Huo Xianfeng turned his head.

    He raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he didn't make any big expression on his face, he still expressed a very vivid doubt.

    "?"

    Why does this omega keep staring at him like this?

    Seeing that the other party was still staring at him without speaking, the young man hesitated for a moment and asked,

    "You, do you have anything else?"

    "..."

    Hearing these words, the omega on the bed was stunned for a moment, and then his delicate and beautiful eyebrows showed a bit of sullenness, but he endured it again and again, and finally turned his head and snorted coldly,

    "No!"

    "……oh."

    Huo Xianfeng blinked and didn't understand what happened to the other party.

    You're all right, why are you so angry?

    The young man thought carefully and finally came to a more scientific and reasonable conclusion——

    He felt that this should be one of the natural physiological reactions after the omega was marked.

    For example, severe mood swings.

    As the alpha who marks the other party, it is natural that they should be comforted, but their relationship is not an ordinary close relationship.It was just an encounter and mark outside Huo Xianfeng's plan, an accident forced by the situation.

    Although there were some dark thoughts in his heart that were difficult to express, the young man had no intention of taking action.He has no past and can't see his future, so there is no need to drag along another squeamish, weak, and hot-tempered omega.

    Huo Xianfeng observed for a few more seconds. Seeing that Jiang Ci was in good condition and conscious, he said,

    "When are you ready to leave?"

    After a pause, he added another sentence.

    "Better as soon as possible."

    After all, this omega was injured, still pregnant, and now on the wanted list of Star Winter. It was really not suitable for him to stay on Star Winter.

    Jiang Ci: "...?"

    The beautiful omega was startled for a moment, then suddenly turned back, looking at Huo Xianfeng with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.

    I just finished marking him last night, and I just collected over 6 million from him. Now I'm going to issue an eviction order???

    The next second——

    The empty glass tube of nutrient supplement was thrown towards me without any warning.

    Snapped!

    Huo Xianfeng raised his hand casually, grabbed it easily as if by coincidence, and then put it aside politely.

    "Don't throw things away,"

    He sighed softly, as if he were facing an unreasonable girlfriend.

    "It's very troublesome to clean up."

    Jiang Ci: "..."

    He felt that he and this alpha named Huo Xianfeng were naturally at odds with each other. A casual word from the other person could make him so angry that he would have a heart attack.

    The Major General opened and closed his mouth, as if he wanted to curse ten thousand curse words, but in the end he held back.

    No need, really not necessary.

    Wow——

    The beautiful omega angrily pulled up the quilt and covered it over her head. She curled up with her back to Huo Xianfeng and refused to communicate.

    At this time, the wound on Jiang Ci's left shoulder was in burning pain due to the excessive movement just now. He frowned and felt that he had a low fever.But this is not a big deal.

    A low-grade fever is normal after an injury.

    From Huo Xianfeng's perspective, he could only see a ball of snow-white quilt rising and falling with his rapid breathing.

    Like a sulking ragdoll cat.

    The young man blinked slowly, with a slight smile in his eyes.He turned off the light.

    Sure enough, the rumors that pregnant omegas have bad tempers and become emotional are true.

    but……

    This question suddenly appeared in Huo Xianfeng's mind——

    Who is the guy who can possess this omega and even make him pregnant?

    The young man's narrow red eyes suddenly became deep, and his hot gaze caressed the undulating curves of the bed inch by inch.

    Huo Xianfeng began to wonder who marked him first, touched him, and kissed him...

    So, would this squeamish and fierce-looking guy on the bed cry in front of other alphas like he did last night?

    The answer is yes.

    At this time, Jiang Ci was keenly aware of a scorching gaze. The feeling of being stared at by the most ferocious predator almost instantly made the hairs on his body stand on end.

    Omega immediately turned around cautiously——

    But nothing.

    The faint light from outside the house came in from the window, and Jiang Ci could see clearly with his excellent eyesight.At this moment, the black-haired alpha boy was still lazily leaning against the window, looking out the window carelessly, as if he never got tired of the mountains of garbage outside.

    This angle makes the lines of his neck and side cheeks more distinct and neat. It is obviously a very lazy and loose posture, but it exudes a very sharp aura.

    Like, a panther resting lazily.

    But no matter what, Jiang Ci did not find that excessively dangerous and scorching sight.His breathing was a little heavy, and there was some trance and confusion in his blurred eyes. He had always been very sensitive to other people's eyes, but today he made a mistake for the first time.

    "Is it an illusion..."

    The weak omega relaxed, his body's low fever making him a little groggy.In fact, Jiang Ci was very sleepy at this time. He was injured yesterday, lost too much blood, and experienced a temporary mark.If it had been anyone else, he probably wouldn't have the strength to move a finger.

    However, the more tired people are, the more soundly they sleep.

    He thought he would be able to fall asleep quickly, but the fact was that Jiang Ci had been tossing and turning in bed for the past three or four hours.

    ——Because this is an alpha bed.

    Although Huo Xianfeng himself had only slept once, and the pheromones were very clean, but for Jiang Ci, an S-level omega with extremely strong perception, he could clearly smell every remaining scent.

    However, this breath was very light, like a feather gently sweeping over it, which made Jiang Ci feel so uncomfortable that he wanted to go crazy.Even if he could barely fall asleep due to his injuries and physical weakness, within a few minutes of falling asleep, he would wake up from various hot, sticky, and indescribable dreams.

    Jiang Ci attributed all this to Huo Xianfeng's sin——

    Because this is the alpha's room.

    The bed is his, the sheets and pillowcases are his, and even his breath is in the air.It is simply torture to let an omega who has just received a temporary mark sleep in a bed filled with the scent of an Alpha mark without getting the comfort he deserves.

    In addition, the alpha who marked him was obviously drinking and blowing the cold wind by the window not far away, but he didn't even look at him.

    damn it!

    The well-educated young master of the Jiang family could not help but curse in his heart again.

    Jiang Ci lifted the quilt and sat up suddenly from the bed.

    In the darkness, his face was flushed and his breathing was rapid. In a panic, he picked up the water glass next to him and drank it all in one gulp. But in fact, this had no effect other than adding a bit of moist luster to his lips.

    "Huo..."

    The beautiful omega gritted her teeth. She couldn't tell whether it was an angry or ashamed tone, but her voice was very small, with obvious gasps and tremors at the end.

    "Huo Xianfeng——"

    "..."

    no respond.

    The originally open window had been closed at some point, and a layer of blackout curtains had been drawn, so now the whole room was plunged into deep darkness.

    Jiang Ci raised his hand, and the silver ring on his wrist quickly lit up with some warm light, illuminating the dark room.He saw the familiar figure by the window, who was lying on the sofa.

    The young man closed his eyes tightly and breathed deeply.

    ——Seems to be sleeping soundly.

    Jiang Ci: "..."

    To be honest, at this moment, he really wanted to kick him to the edge of the universe.

    But there is always a gap between reality and ideals, so at this moment, the omega, who was weak and had a low fever, could only become an absolute example of a disabled person with a strong mind. He wrapped himself in a quilt and slowly walked out of bed.

    The moment he stepped on the ground with his bare feet, he could clearly feel the muscles on his inner thighs trembling slightly.As mentioned in physiology class, this is one of the manifestations of omega's desire for alpha's comfort.

    So Jiang Ci gritted his teeth and could only walk towards the figure by the window.He squatted beside the sofa and pushed the boy hard.

    "Huo Xianfeng!"

    This time the Omega's sound is much louder, but the vibrato inside is also more obvious.

    "..."

    ——Still no response.

    "Damn..."

    The beautiful omega felt indescribably angry and aggrieved at this moment.But the next second, he suddenly heard the young man's low laughter.

    "what?"

    The other party lowered his voice, and his ambiguous tone was like the teasing of a lover in the dark.

    "..."

    Jiang Ci instantly understood that the other party was deliberately playing tricks on him!

    "you!!!"

    In the past, he would probably beat this alpha to paralysis, or go back a few hours and get into a fight. But now, Jiang Ci squatted silently by the sofa for a moment, and finally could only grit his teeth and say,

    "Come here, give me...a puff."

    "..."

    Huo Xianfeng didn't answer. He just reached out to touch the back of the omega's neck in the darkness, pressed the omega into his arms, and then caressed the most untouchable spot with his fingertips.

    Jiang Ci trembled violently, and her first reaction was to hide away, but soon, an irresistible strangeness swept through her body.The feeling of finally being comforted by the alpha made all his rationality disappear at this moment, and he couldn't say a word at all.

    "Comfortable?"

    Then, he heard the other party's narrow smile
