Xiao Jue was feeling puzzled when he saw Jiang Yan get up and wave his hand towards that person, excitedly saying, "Haozi, over here!"
The other two people had not recovered yet, but Jiang Yan earnestly introduced the person beside him, saying, "This is Zhou Hao, a fellow member of my taekwondo club. Rat is the nickname I gave him!"
After speaking, he then gestured to Zhān Ān and Xiāo Jué to introduce themselves before inviting him to sit down. The atmosphere in the room was a bit awkward during their first meeting. Everyone sat silently, refusing to utter a single word.
Especially Zhou Hao, after all, he didn't know the other two people besides Jiang Yan. "Bro, why did you call me here so late at night?"
Finally, Zhou Hao couldn't bear the inner confusion any longer. He tugged at Jiang Yan's sleeve and asked in a low voice.
"Let me introduce you to a gentle and considerate Omega. Up your game and display your Alpha aura!" Jiang Yan whispered, covering his mouth with a dry cough, and motioned for the waiter to bring several bottles of wine over.
As soon as Zhou Hao heard this, his eyes brightened. He immediately sat up straight, putting on a "keep your distance" expression, and deliberately lowered his voice as he laughed and said, "It's a great honor to meet you two!"
Xiao Jue showed no reaction, sitting nonchalantly with his hands resting on his shoulders, not even giving a smile. On the other hand, Zhan An, right after Xiao Jue finished speaking, was captivated by his deep and sexy voice within a split second. With a beaming smile, Zhan An praised, "Your voice sounds really nice..."
"Thank you," Zhou Hao replied softly, his handsome features exuding both gentleness and domineering charisma.
The four of them sat face to face, chatting and laughing for a while. However, throughout the entire conversation, Xiao Jue had only spoken less than ten sentences. He seemed like an outsider, giving off a chilly vibe. He hardly drank any alcohol and spent most of the time quietly sitting and listening to their conversation.
During this time, Zhou Hao only gave him a passing glance, and his suspicious gaze did not linger on him for long. On the contrary, he showed great interest in lively and talkative Zhan An, who had a cute and silly appearance.
"Zhan An, can I call you Xiao An?" Zhou Hao moved a little closer to him and asked in a soft voice.
"Of course!" Zhan An chuckled, replying absent-mindedly without realizing that his own charm had already won over an Alpha.
Zhou Hao took a satisfied sip of his drink. In his joy, he released a small amount of pheromones, hoping to attract Zhan An's attention with the scent of his own pheromones. However, just as he was eagerly waiting for Zhan An's response, Jiang Yan suddenly slammed the table and stood up, later pulling him out with a stern face.
"Why the fuck are you messing with pheromones when you have nothing better to do? Afraid that nobody will be able to smell it?" Jiang Yan suddenly became angry for some reason, his usually easygoing eyes seemed like they could shoot fire.
What's wrong? Didn't you say you were going to introduce an Omega to me?" Zhou Hao furrowed his brows and stared at him with a puzzled expression, completely failing to understand why he suddenly got angry.
"I'm not talking about Omega Zhān'ān, but another one! Can you fucking understand that?" Jiāng Yányuè's anger grew as he spoke, and his tone was far from amicable.
"Wait, are you saying that person is called Xiao Jue?" Zhou Hao was also a bit confused and even more puzzled in his heart. He couldn't help but ask, "But... isn't he an Alpha?"
Jiang Yan opened his eyes and finally realized where the problem lay. After all this time, he had mistakenly believed that Xiao Jue was an Alpha?! This was truly unbelievable.
"Who told you he's an Alpha?" Jiang Yan said, a little exasperated. "He's an Omega, okay? A genuine and bona fide Omega!"
Zhou Hao was greatly shocked. Under Jiang Yan's detailed explanation, he tried hard to recall Xiao Jue's appearance. Two minutes later, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva in disbelief and exclaimed, "You...you're saying he's an Omega?!! You must be kidding."
"Who's joking with you!" Jiang Yan glared at him, exasperated, with an expression that seemed to say, "I can't believe you're so hopeless." Then, with a hint of disgust, he said, "Forget it, forget it. Seeing how unlucky you are, you won't be able to restrain him. Just go away, go away!"
Zhou Hao was initially quite shocked, but he instantly became displeased upon hearing these words. His face changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Tsk, what a joke. I refuse to believe that I can't overpower an Omega!"
"Come on, I'm afraid you'll get beaten up!" Jiang Yan pouted and sneered.
"I'm going to get beaten up?!!" Zhou Hao found it amusing and a little angry, "I'll get beaten up? Hmph, Jiang Yan, if I can't handle him, then I'll change my surname to yours!"
"Rat, I must make it clear to you in advance, if you end up crippled, don't blame me!"
"Wait and see!" Zhou Hao said with a stern face, then turned around and walked back to the bar.
Jiang Yan stood in place, shaking his head and sighing as he watched his figure recede into the distance. For some reason, a mysterious worry arose in his heart. Hopefully, he wouldn't get beaten up too badly...
