Afterwards, Chao Ning couldn't remember the details very clearly. He only vaguely recalled Shen Xi pulling him up and kissing him. Then, Shen Xi proceeded to nibble and bite him. However, at that time, Chao Ning was already overwhelmed by the pheromones and felt as if he were floating on clouds, devoid of any other tangible sensations.
Perhaps he did beat Shen Xi, otherwise, why would his hands be so tired and his knuckles scraped?
"Yeah, he got beat up."
When Chao Ning woke up, it was already almost noon on the second day. After realizing that he was wearing the same pyjamas as yesterday and lying in his familiar bed, he felt a sense of not wanting to face the world. Therefore, he could only stare at the ceiling and reminisce about what happened yesterday.
However, he couldn't remember anything useful, like whether he had made it to the end with Shen Xi. His intuition was telling him he hadn't, after all, he was tired, and there was no pain coming from a certain unspeakable place. His clothes were also neatly worn, but he just felt something was off.
He also didn't want to know how he returned to his shabby little room.
Damn, every single one of them is a beast, they should all sink to the bottom of the river weighted down with lead.
Chao Ning is accustomed to comforting himself, silently reciting "Just consider it as being bitten by a dog" in his heart a few times before getting up. However, even after getting up, he still feels uneasy, especially when the fragmented memories make him feel very insecure. Fortunately, he is an Alpha, with a pregnancy rate close to zero. If he goes all the way with Shen Xi, it wouldn't be considered a major loss, just like not having a good time with anyone else.
Fuck, it's unfortunate that he still doesn't have that memory. Even if he did, why should he, an Alpha, not suffer any losses?
As thoughts swirled in his mind, Zhuo Ning became increasingly disgusted by the duo of Gu and Shen. They truly deserved each other, being utterly repulsive. Even though Zhao Zhe may not be someone of significance, he shouldn't be sold out like this. Filled with anger, Zhuo Ning stormed into the bathroom, intending to take a cold shower. Just as he was about to undress, he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror and his anger flared up once again!
He seized the opportunity and intended to kill Shen Xi!
After taking a cold shower, Shen Xi changed into a new outfit and threw his pyjamas into a garbage bag. He also stuffed his eye mask into his pants pocket and went downstairs with a calm expression. Just as he reached the lower floor, he saw Gu Xiangnan talking to Shen Xi. Both of them seemed unhappy, with Shen Xi even wearing an "I don't care about your blabbering, I'm not listening" expression, as if completely disinterested in what Gu Xiangnan had to say.
Chao Ning was even less interested. He couldn't be bothered to look at those two people. Otherwise, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself and would pick up a vase and smash them to death on the spot.
However, Shen Xi and Gu Xiangnan were not willing to let him off the hook.
"Zhao Ning," Shen Xi and Gu Xiangnan said in unison.
Chao Ning continued walking without stopping, pretending not to hear.
The steward moved to intercept, but Zhang Ning simply glanced at him faintly and said, "I don't hit older people. Leave."
This was the first time the butler directly faced Chao Ning's anger, causing him to momentarily freeze in shock. By the time he regained his composure, Chao Ning had already walked out of the main gate.
Shen Xi wanted to chase after her but was restrained by Gu Xiangnan.
Gu Xiangnan looked at Shen Xi, his expression unreadable. He said, "I already had someone find the person for you yesterday, and I even helped you through the sensitive period. What else do you want? Am I being too lenient with you?"
Shen Xi's temperament was known for being quick to subside, so she directly pushed Gu Xiangnan away, saying, "Who asked you to endure?"
"Shen Xi!" Gu Xiangnan shouted, but Shen Xi had already gone far away.
The butler's expression also looked unpleasant; it was his first time being so negligent.
"Young Master, I'm sorry, I'll go handle it immediately..."
"No need," Gu Xiangnan pressed his tired forehead and said, "Don't tell my mother and grandfather about Shen Xi for now. I don't want any more complications at this juncture."
The butler slightly bowed, "Understood, Young Master."
As an experienced translator of Chinese web novels, I would be delighted to assist you. However, since you have not provided the Chinese paragraph for translation, I am unable to proceed with the task. Please provide the Chinese text, and I will be more than happy to translate it into English for you in a manner consistent with American English.
After leaving the Gu residence, Chao Ning walked quickly. However, no matter how fast he walked, he couldn't match the speed at which Shen Xi was chasing him.
To escape from Shen Xi, Chao Ning would get on any hover car he saw, without caring about its destination. He thought Shen Xi would be stopped at the entrance, but unexpectedly, she passed the identity verification and squeezed in next to him. It was both fortunate and unfortunate that the car was crowded with people. Chao Ning wanted to move forward, but he couldn't even create one body distance between himself and Shen Xi.
Zhao Ning tightly pursed his lips, enduring the touch of Shen Xi. Due to the influence of pheromones, his body did not dislike Shen Xi's presence, but his mind did. He lowered his eyes and fantasized about holding a pair of scissors in his hand, ready to cut off Shen Xi's vital parts at any moment.
However, fantasies can only remain as fantasies.
With each sway of the train carriage, Zhao Ning and Shen Xi would press closer to each other, feeling everything. Suddenly, he felt a hand wrap around his waist.
"Hiss...Shen Xi, don't you want your hand anymore?" Chao Ning turned his head and exclaimed.
Shen Xi had an innocent look on his face and said, "......What?"
As Chao Ning lowered his head for a look, indeed there was a bracelet on his waist, but it wasn't Shen Xi's hand. He widened his eyes in alarm, about to curse at someone, when the force on his waist loosened, followed by a painful exclamation from someone.
With Chao Ning and Shen Xi at the core, a small circle suddenly cleared out beside them, and the person who just tried to embrace Chao Ning was also exposed. Shen Xi tightly held onto the man's hand, causing it to become slightly deformed, his fingers and forearm turning slightly pale, and his face also looking extremely ugly.
"What are you doing? Let go of me!" The man was both embarrassed and angered.
"What are you doing? Touching me, what do you think you're doing?" Shen Xi glared at the man ominously and exerted a little more force. "Molesting an Alpha in a public place, do you know the consequences?"
The man struggled and said, "Who the hell accused me of molesting Alpha? I don't have that kind of fetish!"
Shen Xi and Chao Ning hadn't spoken yet when the man said, "Besides, what's wrong with touching an Alpha? It's not like they're Omegas, so overreacting is just being melodramatic!"
"That's what you get for acting so pretentious!" Chao Ning exclaimed angrily as she threw a punch with full force, hitting the man's mouth and causing it to bleed. "What are you looking at? Just because you touched me doesn't mean I can't hit you back. Stop being so melodramatic!"
The man simultaneously felt pain, surprise, anger, and embarrassment, his expression changing in a remarkably captivating manner.
The surrounding area resounded with a chorus of hisses.
There were also people cheering, "Well done!"
The whole train compartment became even louder.
Shen Xi glanced at the rowdy crowd, then said to Chao Ning, "Get off at the next stop and make a trip to the police station first."
Chao Ning nodded.
"Go, and while we're at it, I'll make sure to send you in as well, you damn hooligan!"
The man touching Zhao Ning is also an Alpha, but he falls far short in many aspects compared to Shen Xi. Therefore, throughout the journey, this man can only be led by Shen Xi, attracting many curious glances.
Shen Xi maintained a calm expression from beginning to end.
After Chao Ning finished recording his statement, he happened to meet Shen Xi's complex gaze. He felt quite puzzled and pointed behind him, saying, "Aren't you happy that I didn't send you in with me?"
Shen Xi remained silent, merely casting his gaze downward.
Chao Ning felt a tingling sensation wherever Shen Xi's electrifying gaze landed. He instinctively covered his stomach and exclaimed, "What are you looking at!"
"I'm sorry." Shen Xi lowered his head slightly, like a child who had made a mistake. "I didn't protect you properly even though I was standing behind you."
Chao Ning didn't expect Shen Xi to apologize to him, which caught him off guard. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "You..."
Shen Xi continued, "And about what happened yesterday, I'm sorry."
Not mentioning yesterday was fine, but as soon as yesterday's matter was brought up, Chao Ning's temper flared up again. After two cold laughs, he left Shen Xi behind and walked away. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would report Shen Xi's actions to Uncle Zhi'an for public safety.
Shen Xi quietly followed Zhao Ning to Xingda University.
At the entrance of Xing University, Chao Ning pulled Shen Xi to the side and said, "Will you ever stop? Do you have to torture me like this over such a trivial matter?"
Shen Xi furrowed his brow and replied, "I never intended to torment you."
"If that's the case, then just go. I don't want to see you right now," Zhong Ning turned around. "I can thank you for what happened earlier, but I won't forgive you for what happened yesterday. So, get lost."
Chao Ning had already walked towards the school, while Shen Xi remained standing where he was, not following her. However, he also did not leave; he stood there like a piece of stone.
