A Fatal Attraction from Lawyer A - Chapter 57

“And the bunny tail, did you feel it?” Gu Yuxi asked with a smile.

“…I felt it.” Luo Panzhi’s hand tingled, and he pinched the bunny tail: “Baby, you’re so cute~”

“So you’re going on a business trip tomorrow, right?” Gu Yuxi sat back down on Luo Panzhi’s lap, allowing him to play with the bunny tail.

Luo Panzhi was completely softened by the tail. Hearing Gu Yuxi’s question, he pulled him into an embrace: “Yes, the International Market Supervisory Group for BO-Gender Agents is conducting an inspection, specifically for that batch of BO-Gender Agents from the Galaxy Group. I have to go for a few days, but tomorrow morning I’ll accompany you to the hospital for your injection before I leave. I’ll come back as soon as I’m done.”

Gu Yuxi suddenly laughed out loud.

Luo Panzhi was momentarily stunned by his laugh: “What’s funny?”

“I didn’t say anything. I just asked if you were going on a business trip. I didn’t mean to cling to you.”

Luo Panzhi felt a little displeased. His hand tugged the bunny tail with a punishing meaning: “If you don’t cling to me, who will you cling to?! I’m also very reluctant to leave you when I travel, okay? You actually told me you didn’t want to cling to me. Take that back!”

“You didn’t believe me when I said you were a little princess.” No sooner had Gu Yuxi spoken than Luo Panzhi pinned him onto the sofa.

Luo Panzhi’s sturdy, powerful arms were braced on either side of his face. The muscular definition was faintly visible through the black T-shirt. His kneeling legs were pressed against Gu Yuxi’s calves. At such close proximity, the dominant pheromones rushed toward him—an irresistible attraction.

It was also an unavoidable temptation.

“I just want you to cling to me, to constantly think of me, and constantly love me.”

The deep, slightly hoarse voice sounded in his ear. Gu Yuxi met Luo Panzhi’s gaze, seeing the wounded look beneath the deep affection, as if Luo Panzhi was reproaching him for being too independent. He rubbed Luo Panzhi’s ear to soothe him:

“I know.”

“From now on, whenever I’m on a business trip, I want you to call me morning, noon, and night. Even if you’re really busy, you must reply to my messages. Don’t make me wait anxiously for you.” Luo Panzhi relaxed his arm and lay down next to Gu Yuxi, letting him rest his head in the crook of his arm: “Don’t be so strong all the time. We are truly husbands now. You have me. There’s nothing you need to endure alone, understood?”

Gu Yuxi turned sideways and hugged Luo Panzhi: “Understood. I’ll tell you everything from now on.”

“Also, if you feel unwell or encounter any problems, tell me immediately, okay?” Luo Panzhi rubbed his chin against Gu Yuxi’s hair, his tone gentle yet worried: “My biggest fear now is you not telling me. You must not do that again in the future, understood?”

Gu Yuxi buried his head into Luo Panzhi’s shoulder and neck, deeply inhaling the scent of his pheromones, feeling the sense of security and attachment the pheromones and the man gave him: “I got it, baby. My back actually hurts a little now.”

“I’ll rub it for you.”

“…First, help me take off the bunny tail.”

“Wuwuwuwu, baby, you’re seriously too cute~~~”

Gu Yuxi’s ears flushed from Luo Panzhi’s playful pleading: “Calm down.”

“Baby, turn around so I can look at your tail~~~ Can I kiss it?”

“Kiss…?!! Luo Panzhi!!!”

“A baby who just showered smells wonderful all over~ Just a kiss, just a kiss!”

The deep night seemed veiled in a layer of mist, yet it couldn’t hide the surging passion. It was like a desire hidden in the late hours, an indelible romance in both their hearts.

The Next Day

Gu Yuxi completed a series of examinations. Following discussions with the obstetrician at Galaxy Hospital, it was tentatively decided that he would receive six estrogen injections daily and take medication for one month. After one month, the development of his reproductive cavity would be re-examined. He was also given a stabilizing shot (progesterone) before the injections began.

Due to the large dosage, the injections would be administered at different sites.

Six injections were given to Gu Yuxi’s abdomen, but Luo Panzhi felt as if all six shots were being given to him, and he couldn’t stop his eyes from welling up.

It was simply too difficult for his Alpha to be pregnant.

Gu Yuxi didn’t feel much pain, but he saw Luo Panzhi sitting by the bed, holding his hand and looking as if he were about to cry. He knew it was because Luo Panzhi’s heart ached for him.

He could also feel the intense emotion that made Luo Panzhi love him more than he loved himself.

Therefore, he wasn’t afraid to give birth to this child.

“All done,” the doctor said, placing an invisible adhesive bandage over the injection site, then instructed: “The first time you inject estrogen, you might feel some general body aches; this is normal. Because you are an Alpha, the absorption might not be as fast compared to Omegas and Betas. But if you experience fever or dizziness, you must come to the hospital immediately for a check-up.”

“Also, you must be careful to protect yourself. The pregnancy is still early, and the reproductive cavity is relatively small. Avoid strenuous activities, or you risk a threatened miscarriage. The family member should provide extra care.”

Luo Panzhi’s expression instantly darkened upon hearing the doctor’s instructions. He happened to be away on a business trip for the next few days. How could Gu Yuxi be left alone?

“Thank you, doctor.” Gu Yuxi got up from the bed. Seeing Luo Panzhi’s strange expression, he nudged him: “Why are you spacing out? I’m finished.”

Luo Panzhi snapped out of it and quickly reached out to support his waist: “Nothing. I was thinking about having Jian Wenxing come over to stay with you. I really don’t feel comfortable leaving you alone.”

Gu Yuxi’s expression was subtle: “Young President Luo, I’m thirty years old, have all my limbs, and my self-care skills are pretty well-developed.”

Luo Panzhi pulled out his phone and called Jian Wenxing: “I know, but I’m not comfortable. I need you to give me peace of mind before I can leave. I’ll have him responsible for driving you to and from work.”

Just as he finished speaking, the call connected. First, the roar of a sports car came through the receiver, followed by Jian Wenxing’s voice: “Hello?”

“Where are you?” Luo Panzhi asked.

“Me? I’m about to go buy flowers to pursue someone. If you have something to say, make it quick.”

Luo Panzhi knew Jian Wenxing’s playboy attitude; it was likely another Omega he was chasing: “I’m flying to F Country soon. For the next few days, you’re responsible for driving Lawyer Gu to and from work. When you drop him off at the Group headquarters, you must escort him upstairs. When you drop him home, you must see him inside the door before you leave.”

“Huh?! Do you want me to be a driver or a bodyguard? Oh, my Second Brother, don’t you know who I am? I—”

“I don’t care who you are. Lawyer Gu is now your brother-in-law—the one with a marriage certificate. You have ten minutes to get to the entrance of Galaxy Hospital. Otherwise, I’ll freeze your credit cards and confiscate all your yachts and sports cars. You decide what you want to do.” Luo Panzhi said this without expression, then immediately hung up.

Just then, he saw Xu Wen walking toward them at the end of the corridor.

“Young President Luo, the plane is ready and can take off at any time.” Xu Wen had to ask a nurse to find out where his boss was. He walked up to Luo Panzhi and froze for two seconds when he saw his boss supporting Lawyer Gu’s waist: “Lawyer Gu is here too.”

What are two Alphas doing in the obstetrics and gynecology department?

Oh, could they be accompanying Young Master Chu to see the doctor?

Gu Yuxi nodded politely.

“I’ll leave once Jian Wenxing arrives.” Luo Panzhi gently patted Gu Yuxi’s lower back, instructing him softly: “Don’t think this is unnecessary. At least let me leave for my trip with peace of mind. Although Jian Wenxing likes to play, he is still very responsible, and I’ve threatened him, so he won’t dare disobey.”

Gu Yuxi smiled, thinking of Luo Panzhi’s earlier “CEO” demeanor: “Okay, I understand.”

“My dad originally wanted you to stay at home with them, but I figured you might feel uncomfortable, so you’ll stay at my place for the next few days. I’ve already instructed the housekeeper about your three meals, so remember to eat on time. Also, I’ll tell Jian Wenxing that starting tomorrow, he must accompany you for your injection before taking you to the Group headquarters.”

Gu Yuxi listened to Luo Panzhi’s detailed instructions, which made him a little reluctant for the man to leave on his business trip. He lowered his eyes and said in a hushed voice: “Okay, I know everything.”

“Be good, and listen. I’ll be back soon.” Luo Panzhi gripped the back of Gu Yuxi’s neck, pulled him forward slightly, and kissed his forehead.

Xu Wen on the side looked completely bewildered: “…”

Why do these two look so much like a married couple?

So, how far have things progressed? He was incredibly curious.

In less than ten minutes, hurried footsteps echoed down the corridor, and then Jian Wenxing was seen running over, panting heavily.

“…I, I made it within ten minutes.” Jian Wenxing ran up to Luo Panzhi, leaning on his knees, gasping for breath: “I didn’t even have time for the elevator, I ran straight up to the eighth floor. Add more money!”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand toward Luo Panzhi, rubbing his thumb and index finger together, signaling to add more money.

“I’ll be on a business trip for about three days. If you can keep a good eye on Lawyer Gu for these three days, five hundred thousand.”

Jian Wenxing immediately stood up, put his feet together, saluted Luo Panzhi by pressing his index and middle fingers to his temple. He raised an eyebrow, his smile wild and flamboyant: “Yes, Boss, mission guaranteed!”

Xu Wen: “…” So envious. He wanted to drive Lawyer Gu to and from work too.

Gu Yuxi gave “CEO” Luo Panzhi a subtle look. This money… truly seemed to be money blown in by the wind. Five hundred thousand for three days. Where else could one find a job like this?

Because of the time difference between Huaxia and F Country, if Luo Panzhi didn’t leave soon, he might miss the International Supervisory Group meeting. After instructing Jian Wenxing about bringing Gu Yuxi to the hospital for his injections for the next three days, Luo Panzhi left for the airport.

At the hospital entrance, Gu Yuxi watched Luo Panzhi wave before getting into the car. The car gradually drove out of his sight. It seemed this was the first time he had ever felt this way about Luo Panzhi leaving on a business trip.

Reluctant to part.

The eye-catching ice-crystal blue sports car drove into the bustling traffic.

“Lawyer Gu, did you get married to my Second Brother?”

In the car, Gu Yuxi heard the question from Jian Wenxing in the driver’s seat. He had no intention of hiding it; they would know sooner or later: “Yes, we got the certificate yesterday.”

“So, you’re half my brother now too.” Jian Wenxing steered the wheel, a slight smile touching the corner of his mouth as he thought of something: “Then can I ask, what kind of flowers does Lawyer Qi like?”

Gu Yuxi was stunned: “Are you talking about Qi Lin?”

“Yes.”

Gu Yuxi was a little confused: “Why are you asking what flowers he likes? He probably doesn’t like flowers.” In the ten years he had known Qi Lin, he had never known his friend to like flowers.

“Then what do you usually like to do together?”

“Library, bookstore, stadium, bar,” Gu Yuxi answered truthfully.

Jian Wenxing smiled: “Right, he really loves to drink. What kind of ball do you usually play? Basketball, badminton, tennis?”

“Bowling.”

Jian Wenxing raised an understanding eyebrow. Bowling, huh? He was quite looking forward to seeing Lawyer Qi in a suit bending over to bowl; the thought alone was sexy. “Right, Lawyer Gu, have you ever made Lawyer Qi angry?”

Gu Yuxi finally sensed something was off. He looked at Jian Wenxing: “We rarely have conflicts. He has a very good temper and hardly ever gets angry.”

Thinking of what Qi Lin had told him last time, so these two were…

Jian Wenxing thought: Qi Lin has a good temper? That day, he was just sending a beautiful Omega home. Who knew the Omega would suddenly kiss him? Qi Lin happened to see it, and they’ve been in a cold war ever since.

He didn’t say anything further: “Are we heading back to the Group headquarters now?”

Gu Yuxi was scrolling through his phone, looking at two popped-up news headlines: “Yes, thank you.”

[L Continent Zoonotic Infectious Disease Outbreak: Source is an Alpha Male in Heat who Raped an Omega Chihuahua, Triggering Secondary Differentiation into an Alpha, Which Then Marked Other Omega Animals.]

[Early This Morning at West City Avenue Apartment No. 60, an Omega Male Was Found Dead. The Man Had Signs of Sexual Assault, a Ruptured Gland Nerve in the Back of the Neck. Blood Test Reports Indicate the Omega Male Was a Secondary Differentiated Omega, with a Primary Gender of Alpha.]

An Alpha undergoing secondary differentiation into an Omega?

His eyes suddenly darkened. Is it Mo Wenbin?!

What exactly does this lunatic want to do?

Just then, there was a loud bang. The front of the car was violently struck by an external force and slammed into the roadside greenery. The recoil of the impact caused Gu Yuxi to hit the back of his seat unexpectedly.

His face instantly turned deathly white.

His phone fell to his feet. The screen lit up, showing the name [A Luo Panzhi].

“Holy crap, where did this psycho driver come from!!” Jian Wenxing had just accelerated when a minivan suddenly ran a red light. Before his car had fully crossed the yellow line, the front was violently hit, sending it into the roadside greenery. Smoke instantly started to rise.

He originally wanted to rush out of the car, but he heard a muffled groan from the passenger seat. He turned and saw Gu Yuxi hunched over, looking very uncomfortable.

“What’s wrong! Did you hit something?!” Jian Wenxing panicked instantly. He quickly helped Gu Yuxi up, but saw that Gu Yuxi’s face was alarmingly pale: “…What is it, what is it? Did you hit something? Don’t scare me.”

He thought, I’m done for. His Second Brother had just entrusted Lawyer Gu to him, and within minutes, he’d gotten him hurt.

Gu Yuxi’s hand braced the edge of the seat, clenching so hard his knuckles turned white: “…I’m fine. My stomach hurts a little. Let’s get out and see what happened.”

Jian Wenxing’s heart skipped a beat: “Are you really okay?”

Gu Yuxi took a deep breath. After a moment, the pain subsided slightly, but he still felt dizzy: “I probably just haven’t recovered from the impact.”

Jian Wenxing felt a slight relief hearing him say he was okay, then angrily opened the car door to find the at-fault driver.

The offending minivan was parked not far in front of them. The slightly hunchbacked and limping driver stood anxiously in front of his vehicle. He likely knew he was at fault and hadn’t left the scene.

“You damn idiot, don’t you look at the traffic lights? Do you know how much my car costs? Forget the car, but if someone got hurt, could you afford that?!!” Jian Wenxing didn’t have a good temper. He grabbed the driver and pulled him up. His gaze fell on the man’s face, covered by a mask and a hat, and he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the skin exposed near the edge of the mask.

It wasn’t unblemished skin; it looked like burn scars.

The driver was tall and sturdy but trembled badly in front of Jian Wenxing. He raised his hands to cover his head: “…I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to run the red light. I’m truly sorry.”

A ferocious, snake-like scar on the back of his hand caught Jian Wenxing’s eye, and he was inexplicably drawn to stare at it. His hand was still gripping the man, with no intention of letting go: “Is ‘sorry’ going to help? Do you know who you hit?”

The driver clearly knew what kind of car he had hit, and his voice was trembling: “I’ll compensate you. I’ll work like an ox or a horse for you to pay it back.” His peripheral vision caught sight of the person getting out of the passenger seat of the Lamborghini. His gaze deepened, and he tried to break free: “Did I hit that gentleman? I should go apologize to him.”

Jian Wenxing yanked him back: “Ha, what good is an apology? Stay right here until the traffic police arrive.”

The driver was still stubbornly trying to get toward Gu Yuxi. His eyes held a nearly obsessive madness as he struggled: “I’ll go apologize to him! I must go apologize to him—”

Before he could finish, the person reflected in his eyes suddenly collapsed, and his pupils shrank violently.

After getting out of the car, Gu Yuxi found his dizziness worsening. He leaned on the car door, thinking he just hadn’t recovered from the impact, but when he took a step, he realized his vision was blacking out in waves.

Something was wrong…

He instinctively shielded his abdomen.

Jian Wenxing found the driver completely baffling. Why wouldn’t he talk properly but insist on apologizing to Gu Yuxi? Then he saw Gu Yuxi leaning on the car door, falling forward, and his face instantly changed.

“Lawyer Gu!!!”
