For the first two markings, Ye Shaoyang had no psychological barriers whatsoever. It was just a bite; he accepted it easily. It even felt quite comfortable being bitten, and he could smile and thank Chi Shuo afterwards.
But now, whenever Chi Shuo approached his neck, his mind would automatically conjure up images of two people giving each other handjobs. Not only was Ye Shaoyang's face flushed, but his body was also somewhat stiff.
Noticing his nervousness, Chi Shuo gently pressed on his shoulder and comforted him in a low voice, "Don't worry, didn't I mark you twice before? I won't hurt you."
Ye Shaoyang: "…"
Stop talking, bro! The more you say, the more shameful it gets.
Stop now and ask Chi Shuo to mark him tomorrow? That would only be more awkward.
Anyway, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. If he pulled his head back now, he would be a coward.
Ye Shaoyang took a deep breath and thought: I'm going all out, hurry up! One mark can last for several months. After this bite, treat it as if nothing happened.
He turned around, lowered his head with his back to Chi Shuo, and quickly tore off the blocker patch on his neck.
Ye Shaoyang's ears were red, and the skin on the back of his neck was also slightly flushed because he used too much force when tearing off the patch. The whole person looked cooked.
The shy Shaoyang looked exceptionally enticing.
Chi Shuo felt a little moved. He took the initiative to lean over and gently kissed the back of Ye Shaoyang's neck.
The Alpha's burning lips intimately touched the skin, and the affectionate touch was clearly transmitted to the brain.
Ye Shaoyang's whole body trembled violently—Psychological barriers are so hard to overcome! Chi Shuo kissed the back of the neck, but his brain automatically converted it to other parts, making him go numb.
Marking for the third time, Chi Shuo already had experience. He quickly found the gland on Ye Shaoyang's neck. Just as he was about to bite down hard, Ye Shaoyang suddenly dodged to the side, and Chi Shuo missed.
A question mark slowly appeared above Chi Shuo's head: "You… what are you dodging for?"
Ye Shaoyang's voice trembled: "I-I'll adjust again."
Chi Shuo: "…"
You're adjusting a bit too many times today, aren't you? Didn't see you adjust the previous two times?
Ye Shaoyang's mood was incredibly tangled. Can't let the imagination run wild anymore. Treat it as biting the neck, just a simple bite, nothing else. He took a deep breath and whispered, "Okay, come on."
Chi Shuo said, "If you're not feeling well, we can supplement it another day."
Ye Shaoyang hurriedly said, "It's fine, just today. Finish it early, rest assured early."
Chi Shuo was silent for a few seconds, then whispered, "Then… I'll start?"
Ye Shaoyang gave an "En" and closed his eyes tightly.
Chi Shuo leaned in again. This time Ye Shaoyang didn't dodge, but his body was very stiff. Chi Shuo's movements were as gentle as usual. After finding the position of the gland, he first nibbled gently, then slowly increased the pressure.
Ye Shaoyang could clearly feel the soft gland on the back of his neck being slowly bitten open by the Alpha.
His mind was a mess.
The cold fragrance of green bamboo under the moon gradually emerged in the air.
He had smelled this fragrance before and knew it was the scent of Captain Chi's pheromones. At that time, he only thought it smelled good, thinking it was similar to perfume. But today, he inexplicably felt that this fragrance was very enticing…
It made his heart race and his blood pump.
The familiar pheromones were injected into the body along the gland, flowing slowly along the blood. He felt his whole person being wrapped by Chi Shuo's cold yet gentle pheromones, and every pore was soothed very comfortably.
Thinking that this is the pleasure of preliminary XX between Alpha and Omega mentioned in "Scientific Marking"…
Ye Shaoyang's face turned completely red, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to bury himself.
Chi Shuo was still continuing. Ye Shaoyang's heartbeat was ridiculously fast, and many messy images emerged in his mind.
He clenched his fists to barely control his fierce heartbeat and rapid breathing.
At this moment, time seemed to be deliberately slowed down. Every second became incredibly long, and every detail of Chi Shuo biting him was magnified several times in his mind, so clear that he was ashamed and unbearable.
Why isn't it over yet…
How much longer is Captain Chi going to bite?
The body seems to have a reaction; save me!
Ye Shaoyang was about to explode with shame.
Chi Shuo's heart was also beating fast. Today's Shaoyang was more enticing than the previous two times. The way he blushed shyly was really cuter the more he looked. He was a little distracted, so the marking speed slowed down.
This was torture for both of them.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Shaoyang couldn't help asking in a low voice, "Done, done yet?" The trembling tail note betrayed his emotion on the verge of collapse at this time.
Chi Shuo let go of him, his voice hoarse: "Done."
A distinct tooth mark left by the Alpha appeared on the neck. The tender gland was bitten open and filled with the Alpha's pheromones. This supplementary mark was a bit deep and should last for a few months so that the upcoming matches won't be affected.
Chi Shuo was thinking but saw Ye Shaoyang suddenly jump up like he was electrocuted and rush to the bedroom in a few steps: "I'm going to the bathroom."
Chi Shuo: "…"
Inside the bathroom, Ye Shaoyang stood under the shower, turning the cold water to the maximum.
Today at the hospital, he asked the doctor if it would be hard for an Alpha to endure when marking an Omega? The doctor said that it is normal to have instinctive physiological reactions.
As a result, he didn't know what reaction Chi Shuo had, but he himself had a strong reaction.
For the first two markings, his heart didn't fluctuate at all because, in his opinion, this was just a simple bite.
But now, realizing what marking represented… it was hard not to overthink!
During the process of Chi Shuo marking him just now, his mind was full of images of the two jerking each other off after bringing it into reality. While awkward enough to dig a hole with his toes, his body involuntarily…
Ye Shaoyang covered his face guiltily.
While standing under the shower getting blasted by cold water, he cursed himself for being shameless.
Not only did he let his good bro help him solve his physiological problem, but he also got turned on… Do you want face?
The scummest Omega of the year, deservedly so.
After Chi Shuo came back from the hospital today, to avoid losing control when marking Ye Shaoyang, he injected himself with a potent suppressant in the arm. Although he had a reaction during the marking process just now, he quickly suppressed it.
On the contrary, Shaoyang…
In his haste, he didn't even close the bedroom door.
Hearing the splashing water sound from the bathroom, Chi Shuo instantly understood the reason why Ye Shaoyang fled in panic just now—did he have a reaction, so he ran to take a shower in a panic?
Chi Shuo's heart felt itchy, as if gently scratched by a kitten's paw.
He waited for a moment, and seeing Ye Shaoyang still hadn't come out, he walked over and knocked on the door, asking with concern, "Shaoyang, are you okay?"
Ye Shaoyang's slightly trembling voice came through the bathroom: "I'm fine, just taking a shower."
As soon as the voice fell, continuous sneezing sounds of "A-choo" were heard from the bathroom.
Chi Shuo frowned: "Caught a cold?"
Ye Shaoyang: "No, no."
He quickly turned off the shower, dried his body, changed into pajamas, and went out. When he opened the door, he happened to see Chi Shuo standing outside the bedroom, looking into the room with a worried face.
Their eyes met, and Ye Shaoyang's face turned red again.
Thinking that he had just solved it once in the bathroom, he was ashamed and indignant.
Chi Shuo instructed in a low voice: "Dry your hair, don't catch a cold."
Ye Shaoyang hummed an agreement and stammered, "Um, I want to sleep in the afternoon. Captain Chi, go do your business, don't worry about me."
Seeing no other abnormalities, Chi Shuo nodded and said, "Okay, you rest first."
Ye Shaoyang closed the bedroom door, dried his hair, turned around, and lay on the bed.
This sleep was very restless, and the dream was full of messy images. He slept very deeply, as if some force was dragging him immersed in the dream, unable to wake up no matter what.
At 6 PM, Chi Shuo was ready to go downstairs for dinner, but saw Ye Shaoyang's door closed tightly. He sent a message to Ye Shaoyang: "Up yet?"
No reply received.
An Omega might be relatively tired after being marked, so let him sleep a bit longer. Thinking so, Chi Shuo went downstairs to eat first and packed a dinner back for Ye Shaoyang.
However, until 8 PM, Ye Shaoyang's door remained closed tightly, and he didn't reply to messages either.
Sensing something was wrong, Chi Shuo got up and knocked on the door: "Shaoyang, haven't woken up yet?"
There was no response from inside. Chi Shuo frowned and pushed the door open directly——
He saw Ye Shaoyang curled up in a ball, tightly wrapped in the quilt, revealing only his head. There was an unnatural flush on his face, looking like he was sick.
Chi Shuo walked over quickly and reached out to feel his forehead.
So hot! Is this a fever?
Chi Shuo sat by the bed and whispered, "Yangyang, wake up, can you hear me?"
Ye Shaoyang was dazed. In his dream, he seemed to have fallen into a quagmire, unable to climb out no matter how hard he tried. Suddenly, a familiar voice called him: Yangyang, wake up.
He tried hard to open his eyes, then met a pair of deep and gentle eyes.
Chi Shuo touched his forehead with heartache and said, "You have a fever. Are you conscious?"
Ye Shaoyang's throat was about to smoke, and he said hoarsely, "I have a bit of a headache…"
He struggled to sit up, but Chi Shuo hurriedly held him down: "Don't move around. Do you have an appetite now? Eat something to fill your stomach first, then I'll get you cold medicine."
Ye Shaoyang shook his head: "No appetite, don't want to eat."
Chi Shuo said, "You haven't eaten all afternoon. Taking medicine on an empty stomach is bad for the stomach. I'll go make you some easily digestible porridge."
He got up and poured Ye Shaoyang a cup of warm water first, then went to the kitchen, made a bowl of vegetable porridge, and brought it over.
Chi Shuo sat by the bed and helped Ye Shaoyang up to lean against his chest. Ye Shaoyang had a fever and was dazed. He couldn't see many things clearly in front of him, and his eyes seemed to have lost focus.
Chi Shuo scooped the porridge with a spoon, blew on it by his lips, then handed it to Ye Shaoyang, feeding him.
Ye Shaoyang obediently opened his mouth to eat the porridge.
He was completely unaware that he was being fed bite by bite by the "good bro" who had just marked him.
Chi Shuo patiently finished feeding a bowl of porridge, wiped Ye Shaoyang's mouth for him, and said softly, "Take the fever reducer in half an hour. I will watch over you here. If the fever doesn't go down, I'll take you to the hospital."
Ye Shaoyang gave a dazed "Mn".
He looked listless, eyes closed, forehead burning hot, and breathing somewhat heavy.
Chi Shuo took a clean towel to give him a cold compress. Half an hour later, he fed him the fever reducer he found with warm water: "Come, take the medicine first."
Ye Shaoyang was at Chi Shuo's mercy like a puppet without a soul.
His mind was chaotic, unable to hear clearly what the other party was saying, only feeling that the smell on the other party was particularly good.
Maybe because he had just been marked, leaning in Chi Shuo's arms, smelling the familiar cold fragrance on Chi Shuo, he felt inexplicably reassured.
Ye Shaoyang reached out and hugged Chi Shuo's waist, falling asleep again unconsciously.
The Ye Shaoyang Chi Shuo usually saw was always lively and spirited. This was the first time seeing him sick.
He must have taken a cold shower and caught a cold.
An Omega's body would be relatively weak after being marked. Taking a cold shower at this time makes it easy to get sick. He also blamed himself for not reminding him, knowing clearly that he didn't understand this knowledge well.
Chi Shuo blamed himself a little.
Just then, Ye Shaoyang suddenly reached out and hugged him.
Probably people with fever prefer the cool scent on him?
Chi Shuo's heart softened instantly, and he gently hugged Ye Shaoyang back: "Sleep, I'm here watching over you."
…
Perhaps the cold medicine had hypnotic ingredients; Ye Shaoyang slept very deeply.
When he woke up the next morning, he felt refreshed and physically comfortable.
Just as he was about to get up, he found that he was actually hugging someone's waist and sleeping in the other person's arms?
Ye Shaoyang: "???"
What's the situation?
He looked up and was almost scared out of his wits.
Fck fck fck!
Why was he sleeping while hugging Chi Shuo?
Asking Chi Shuo to help him supplement the mark, and then sleeping in Chi Shuo's arms for a night… Confirmed scummy O.
Done for, done for. Now, even jumping into the Yellow River won't wash it clean.
If he apologizes to Chi Shuo later, how should he compensate Chi Shuo for emotional damage?
