After Transmigrating into an ABO World with My Rival - Chapter 31
Chen Yanzhi recovered from his momentary panic. Looking at Fu Tingyue’s lack of lucidity, he asked softly, “Are you okay? Do you know who I am?”
Even though Fu Tingyue had just called out his name, Chen Yanzhi was worried he might be talking in his sleep, so it was better to confirm.
Fu Tingyue lowered his head and leaned closer. His dilated pupils were filled entirely with Chen Yanzhi’s reflection as he whispered tenderly, “Zhizhi. Chen Yanzhi.”
Chen Yanzhi felt a bit spooked by that unfathomable gaze. His large eyes darted around, and he asked with a face full of suspicion, “Didn’t you take suppressants? Why haven’t you woken up yet?”
Fu Tingyue looked at him with a dazed expression and muttered to himself, “I am awake.”
Chen Yanzhi had never seen Fu Tingyue like this. He looked at him with curiosity, his tone automatically switching to the way one coaxes a small child, “Then why aren’t your pupils focusing?”
Fu Tingyue retorted with a slow reaction, “Focusing. I see you.”
Chen Yanzhi stared into those dark pupils for a moment before suddenly bursting into laughter, “Hahaha! Fu Tingyue, how did you become so silly?”
Fu Tingyue tilted his head and looked at him blankly, clearly not understanding why he had suddenly burst into laughter.
Chen Yanzhi’s hands were still being held. He laughed so hard he trembled, and his shirt rolled up to his chest, revealing a slender waist and a belly with a bit of soft flesh.
Fu Tingyue glanced down. He gazed at Chen Yanzhi’s neat, white teeth, the tip of his tongue that peeked out because of his laughter, and his moist, pink lips.
Suddenly, too many pheromones flooded out. Chen Yanzhi couldn’t laugh anymore; he furrowed his brows uncomfortably and began to shiver.
“You… mmph…”
Before the words of reproach could leave his mouth, Fu Tingyue suddenly blocked his lips, tenderly licking and kissing his petals.
This was the first time Chen Yanzhi had kissed Fu Tingyue while being fully conscious. Not only did he not resist, but he also had the illusion that they had kissed many times before. They were uncannily compatible.
But counting the time during his differentiation fever, this was clearly only their second kiss.
Wasn’t this kiss too natural? Was his acceptance of it too natural as well?
“Chen Yanzhi,” Fu Tingyue suddenly called his name.
Chen Yanzhi responded blankly, “Hmm?”
Fu Tingyue commanded, “Open your mouth.”
“Ah… mmph…”
Chen Yanzhi’s confusion was completely stifled. Fu Tingyue’s burning tongue-tip probed into his oral cavity, urgently seeking his tongue. Chen Yanzhi was startled, and his tongue darted around to hide, only for his cool mouth to be thoroughly scavenged by Fu Tingyue.
Fu Tingyue kissed too urgently. Coupled with the constant release of pheromones, Chen Yanzhi’s originally clear mind began to feel dizzy.
He didn’t even know when his lips and tongue had become so entangled with Fu Tingyue’s. By the time he came to his senses, his tongue was being held and sucked by Fu Tingyue. A tingling sensation instantly enveloped him from his scalp down, and he uncontrollably broke out in goosebumps.
Chen Yanzhi couldn’t take suppressants, so he had entered the room without any precautionary measures. Even though his differentiation fever had only passed a month ago, under the impact of the top-tier pheromones, he entered his heat without warning.
Neither of them was lucid. Craving the other’s pheromones, they found that besides the glands, the pheromones in their mouths were also very concentrated. Thus, the two embraced each other, rolling back and forth on the bed, wishing they could kiss each other’s mouths raw.
Chen Yanzhi was completely out of it, but his bracelet wasn’t undone, so Fu Tingyue could only extract pheromones from his mouth.
Chen Yanzhi was kissed until his head spun, feeling a sense of suffocation like a fish out of water.
It wasn’t until he was out of breath and began pounding on Fu Tingyue’s chest that Fu Tingyue pulled back slightly. Relying on his last shred of sanity, he said hoarsely, “Dummy, breathe through your nose.”
Chen Yanzhi’s hearing had even declined from the kissing. He didn’t hear what Fu Tingyue said; his thin chest heaved violently as he stared into Fu Tingyue’s eyes.
He still wanted to kiss. Was kissing actually this comfortable? Or was it because the person he was kissing was Fu Tingyue?
Fu Tingyue pecked at his lips every now and then, his voice raspy and suppressed, “Zhizhi, give me some pheromones.”
Only then did Chen Yanzhi realize his bracelet was still on. He shivered as he pressed his fingerprint onto it. With a ding, the bracelet fell off, and a massive amount of pheromones surged out. The scents of lime and red wine tangled together, so intense it was almost choking.
Even if his mind wasn’t clear, Fu Tingyue could still put on a calm front. He considerately helped Chen Yanzhi fasten the bracelet and placed it on the nightstand. On the contrary, it was Chen Yanzhi who, hit by the pheromones, lost his clarity and kept tugging at Fu Tingyue’s clothes.
Fu Tingyue laughed softly, “Little rogue.”
His mind was muddled, but he knew the person in front of him was Chen Yanzhi. He kept restraining himself, terrified of hurting him.
Chen Yanzhi suddenly stopped his tugging. He lifted a pair of watery eyes to look at the Alpha. As if to confirm something, he asked urgently, “Fu Tingyue, do you like me? Do you like me or not?”
Fu Tingyue’s breathing was ragged, “I like you. I like you the most.”
Chen Yanzhi was happy. He hooked his arms around Fu Tingyue’s neck and took the initiative to lean in and kiss him.
However, his kissing skills weren’t very good. He fumbled and accidentally bit the tip of Fu Tingyue’s tongue, tasting a faint hint of blood.
He licked Fu Tingyue’s lips like a kitten and mumbled softly, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Fu Tingyue turned the tables, pinching Chen Yanzhi’s chin to kiss him while his large hands constantly stroked his slender body.
Fu Tingyue’s hands were very hot. With just a light touch, Chen Yanzhi would break out in goosebumps.
Fu Tingyue looked down at him, his eyes full of laughter, “Why are you shaking like this?”
Chen Yanzhi shivered and said, “It itches.”
Fu Tingyue mischievously used his calloused fingertips to rub the ticklish flesh on his waist, speaking with a heavy, breathy tone, “Where does it itch?”
Chen Yanzhi grabbed Fu Tingyue’s arm, shaking even more pitifully, “My waist… my waist.”
“Just your waist?” Fu Tingyue suddenly moved his hand behind his waist. His hot fingertips lightly hooked into the waistband of his pants. “What about back here?”
Chen Yanzhi opened his mouth and exhaled a few times, tears starting to fall.
He wanted to be touched by Fu Tingyue. Why did he stop?
Fu Tingyue mischievously didn’t give it to him. Instead, he pulled his hand back and moved it to his abdomen, asking considerately, “Do you want your gland to be touched?”
Chen Yanzhi didn’t speak. He grabbed Fu Tingyue’s hand and placed it on the burning gland at the back of his neck. Those originally bright eyes were now hazy, with tears constantly pouring out and a layer of mist gathered in his sockets. The moment his gland was touched, he let out a muffled groan. The tears followed, rolling down his cheeks and vanishing into the bedding beneath him.
Chen Yanzhi didn’t know that he looked incredibly pitiful when he cried, like a lily swaying in the wind, making one unable to help but feel pity.
But that was under normal circumstances. At this moment, Fu Tingyue’s blood was boiling, and a voice in his head kept clamoring: Mark him. Make him stay by my side forever, unable to go anywhere.
As his gland was rubbed, Chen Yanzhi’s tears fell even harder. However, he was never one to only let himself feel good; he also reached out to touch Fu Tingyue’s gland.
In a daze, he remembered seeing online that while most people’s glands were on the back of the neck, a few people had them elsewhere—behind the ears or other parts of the body.
Fortunately, both his and Fu Tingyue’s were in the normal spot.
As soon as he started thinking, he stopped his movements. Fu Tingyue pressed his forehead against his, his breathing rapid, “Don’t stop. Touch it some more.”
Chen Yanzhi gave an “oh” and continued to rub his gland.
Fu Tingyue suddenly kissed him again. His tongue was being sucked, and his gland was being looked after. Chen Yanzhi couldn’t help but reach for Fu Tingyue’s free hand.
Fu Tingyue suddenly held his hand down and asked, “Do you want to take a bath?”
After making such a fuss for so long, both of them were covered in sweat. Fu Tingyue knew Chen Yanzhi loved being clean.
As expected, Chen Yanzhi nodded, “Yes.”
Fu Tingyue kissed the corner of his mouth and picked him up to go to the bathroom. Chen Yanzhi’s chaotic brain suddenly felt like he was forgetting something, but Fu Tingyue’s pheromones kept hooking him, making it impossible to think straight.
It wasn’t until Fu Tingyue helped him take off his pants that a small, square box suddenly fell out of his pocket. The two, who were originally kissing, stopped in unison. A strange silence filled the large bathroom.
“What is this?” Fu Tingyue feigned ignorance as he leaned over to pick it up.
Chen Yanzhi’s head was muddled, and he couldn’t remember what it was either. He leaned over to take a look and subconsciously read it out loud, “Extra-large, ultra-thin, for a brand new experience…”
The atmosphere became awkward. Chen Yanzhi looked up at Fu Tingyue’s searching gaze, “Secretary Jiang gave it to me. He gave it to me at the door just now. Really, I swear.”
Fu Tingyue’s head was heavy, yet he could still stay calm enough to chat with Chen Yanzhi. His long fingers flipped the box twice. He looked down at Chen Yanzhi’s uneasy eyes, “What did you take this for?”
“Secretary Jiang said I’d get pregnant, so he stuffed it to me.” Because he had suddenly entered his heat, Chen Yanzhi’s mind was a mess, and his speech unconsciously carried a hint of cuteness, “I couldn’t remember what was in my pocket just now…”
He tapped the box in Fu Tingyue’s hand with his finger and suddenly laughed, “It’s this!”
Fu Tingyue quickly caught the main point, “You want to do it with me?”
“No, but Secretary Jiang said doing it is the only way to help you through your rut faster. But I’m still hesitating.” Chen Yanzhi looked down and gestured, putting his hands together to make a large circle, then using one hand to make a small circle. “The difference is too big. I’ll die. Let’s forget it. I’ll just bite your gland and you can hold on and get through it yourself, okay?”
When he spoke, he even had a coaxing tone, clearly truly afraid of the act.
Fu Tingyue was still playing with the box in his hand. He asked in a flirtatious tone, “Are you afraid I’ll break you?”
“Does that even need to be said? I’ll definitely break.” Chen Yanzhi felt he should stay a bit further away from Fu Tingyue for safety, but he liked his pheromones way too much. While he was talking, he kept leaning toward Fu Tingyue. By the time he realized it, he was already in Fu Tingyue’s arms.
“Fu Tingyue, let’s take things slowly, okay? I know about your confession, but I can’t think straight. My mind is a mess. Give me a little time.”
As Chen Yanzhi spoke, he rubbed himself against Fu Tingyue’s chest—a clumsy form of comforting and pleading. Only Chen Yanzhi would act this way; ever since they were children, he would do this whenever he had a favor to ask of Fu Tingyue.
He rarely acted like this after growing up. It was likely because his heat had come early, leaving his mind muddled, and he had simply done it out of instinct.
Fu Tingyue wrapped his arms around Chen Yanzhi’s waist, pulling him close as his breathing quickened. “Can I interpret this as you not hating me, and perhaps having a little bit of interest in me?”
“More than just a little bit.” Chen Yanzhi raised his pinky, gesturing to the length of two knuckles. “This much.”
Fu Tingyue suddenly went wild, pushing Chen Yanzhi against the wall and urgently kissing his lips.
Chen Yanzhi was forced to endure it. His slender arms hung around Fu Tingyue’s neck as Fu Tingyue lifted him by the waist, his feet dangling in the air.
Chen Yanzhi let out a startled cry, but that only gave Fu Tingyue an opening. The Alpha’s powerful tongue probed inside, entangling with his tongue and relentlessly extracting pheromones from his mouth.
Before long, Chen Yanzhi’s last shred of logic vanished. By the time Fu Tingyue had stripped him and placed him in the bathtub, the Alpha’s canines were already grazing his gland, teasing a bite.
Shivering, Chen Yanzhi grabbed Fu Tingyue’s hand, which was circling his waist, and urged, “Hurry up.”
Fu Tingyue suddenly used his hand to take hold of him. Before Chen Yanzhi could react, he reached his peak. While he was still lost in the afterglow, Fu Tingyue suddenly bit through his gland. A massive injection of pheromones surged in, and Chen Yanzhi uncontrollably arched his body, exposing his beautiful, pale back. The man behind him held him firmly to prevent him from falling into the water.
It was far too intense. Chen Yanzhi couldn’t take it, crying out for Fu Tingyue to stop.
“I don’t want it, let me go.” The two were extremely close; every time he struggled, they touched. Marking Chen Yanzhi gave Fu Tingyue immense physical and mental satisfaction. He felt incredible, even instinctively rubbing against Chen Yanzhi’s back a couple of times.
By this point, Chen Yanzhi was so overstimulated that he had lost consciousness. He had no idea what Fu Tingyue was doing. To get Fu Tingyue to let go of his poor gland, he even proactively turned his head to hook his arms around Fu Tingyue’s neck and kiss him, begging for mercy.
Now he understood why Fu Tingyue had been so angry before when he learned Chen Yanzhi had gone out drinking with Alphas. An Omega truly had no resistance in front of an Alpha. Even though he was a top-tier Omega, there was no guarantee there wouldn’t be top-tier Alphas out there. It was truly dangerous.
Chen Yanzhi turned around and hugged Fu Tingyue’s neck, apologizing through a hazy consciousness: “I’m sorry, Fu Tingyue, I’m sorry.”
Fu Tingyue wasn’t lucid either, but hearing Chen Yanzhi’s words, he stopped his kissing to comfort him: “It’s okay, no need to apologize. No matter what you do, I will always forgive you.”
Chen Yanzhi suddenly said, “Alphas are so scary.”
Fu Tingyue paused. His chaotic thoughts regained a flicker of clarity because of those casual words. He cupped Chen Yanzhi’s burning face and pressed against his lips, asking, “Are you afraid of me too?”
Chen Yanzhi tilted his head, nuzzling against Fu Tingyue’s lips as he rasped, “I’m not afraid of you.”
Fu Tingyue’s pheromones intensified instantly. He grabbed Chen Yanzhi’s hand and forced him to help him, his breathing becoming more and more labored. “Who am I?”
Chen Yanzhi looked down. Even in the water, he felt like his palm was about to be burned. He also couldn’t suppress his own excitement. “Fu Tingyue, you are… Fu Tingyue.”
Fu Tingyue held the back of Chen Yanzhi’s neck, pulling him into his chest while leisurely stroking Chen Yanzhi’s gland. “Does Zhizhi like Fu Tingyue?”
Chen Yanzhi slowly nodded. Scalding tears fell onto Fu Tingyue’s chest, burning through his skin and into his trembling heart.
The water in the bathtub splashed over the edge, flooding the floor. Fu Tingyue pressed Chen Yanzhi against the edge of the tub to kiss him. His powerful arms held Chen Yanzhi’s slender legs. Every few moments, he would ask Chen Yanzhi if he could see, and if it felt good.
Chen Yanzhi was worn down. His thoughts were occupied by the scent of red wine, and he had long since lost the ability to think calmly. He only knew to obediently open his mouth to let Fu Tingyue kiss him and answer whatever he was asked.
When asked if it felt good, he said it didn’t. He felt like he had nothing left, and it hurt a little.
Then Fu Tingyue would help by touching him, telling him nothing was broken and everything was fine. Then Chen Yanzhi complained that his legs hurt and the skin was chafed, so Fu Tingyue told him they were just a bit red but not broken.
Then he clamored to bite Fu Tingyue’s gland. Fu Tingyue let him bite, then flipped Chen Yanzhi over and swatted his bottom. Chen Yanzhi got angry and tried to bite Fu Tingyue back, only to have his own gland bitten open by Fu Tingyue. He then shivered and begged for mercy, his tears and saliva mixing as they dripped into the tub. He was a complete mess.
By the time they left the bathroom, Chen Yanzhi was so exhausted he had fainted. It was unwise to engage in a physical contest with an Alpha. Even with Fu Tingyue holding back, he had still fainted from exhaustion; otherwise, he wouldn’t have lasted this long.
Fu Tingyue regained some clarity. It was already past midnight. Seeing that Chen Yanzhi’s legs were a bit red, he carefully applied medicine to them and to Chen Yanzhi’s gland.
Afterward, he opened a drawer, took out a bag of nutritional fluid, and fed it to Chen Yanzhi mouth-to-mouth.
Though unconscious, Chen Yanzhi still knew how to swallow. He was starving. Once he tasted it, he used his tongue to lick Fu Tingyue’s lips, wanting more. Before long, he finished the bag and fell into a peaceful sleep.
Fu Tingyue tidied up the room and the bathroom before returning to bed. As soon as he lay down, Chen Yanzhi crawled into his arms, nuzzling him affectionately and resting against his chest to continue sleeping.
Fu Tingyue rubbed his head and patted his shoulder to coax him to sleep. Once the person in his arms was sound asleep, he took advantage of his current clarity to finish the day’s work.
Only then did he check his messages on a social app. This was his personal account, containing only Chen Yanzhi and a few important people, including Chen Yanzhi’s instructor.
After reading the wall of messages from Chen Yanzhi, Fu Tingyue clicked on the instructor’s chat and saw this message: [Mr. Fu, Mr. Chen requested five days of leave today. He said his boyfriend’s rut had arrived and he had to accompany him. Are you aware of this?]
In truth, Fu Tingyue knew the instructor was really asking if he knew Chen Yanzhi had a boyfriend.
Fu Tingyue had originally thought Chen Yanzhi’s earlier admission of liking him was just the influence of pheromones, but Chen Yanzhi had already told his instructor he was his boyfriend before even coming here.
Fu Tingyue stared at the message for a long time. Finally, he typed a reply: [I am aware. I am that boyfriend.]
After replying, he turned off his phone, tossed it aside, and kissed Chen Yanzhi for a while.
Disturbed from his sweet dreams, Chen Yanzhi grew irritable. He grumbled and bumped his head against Fu Tingyue, even slapping Fu Tingyue’s arm twice. The force wasn’t light; two clear handprints appeared on Fu Tingyue’s arm.
Fu Tingyue didn’t mind. He spoke softly to coax him, “Go to sleep. I won’t bother you anymore.”
Chen Yanzhi thought Fu Tingyue would hold out longer, but before dawn the next day, Fu Tingyue lost consciousness again. In reality, Fu Tingyue wasn’t unconscious during the entire rut. He would occasionally wake up for varying lengths of time—sometimes an hour, sometimes half an hour, sometimes just a few minutes.
During the last rut, which was his first, Fu Tingyue had hardly been conscious at all. This time he had experience, and with the help of Chen Yanzhi’s pheromones, he had been awake for an hour in the middle. However, Chen Yanzhi had also entered his heat and was hardly ever lucid.
An Alpha’s willpower is weak during a rut. Being enticed by Chen Yanzhi like this, Fu Tingyue’s periods of clarity became shorter and shorter. In the end, they nearly went all the way, but fortunately, Fu Tingyue regained consciousness just in time.
Chen Yanzhi had no idea how many days had passed. Along the way, he had fainted several times from the stimulation of Fu Tingyue’s pheromones. A true heat was much harder to endure than differentiation fever, but with Fu Tingyue there, he felt much better. Furthermore, because of his state of mind, he didn’t resist Fu Tingyue; he even looked forward to his touch and all the intimate actions.
When he woke up again, five days had passed. The terrifying heat inside him had receded, and his muddled brain had regained clarity.
He was woken up by hunger.
Fu Tingyue was no longer by his side. Chen Yanzhi had no strength, so he buried his face in the pillow, smelling Fu Tingyue’s pheromones and counting silently. When he reached twenty, Fu Tingyue pushed the door open and entered.
Fu Tingyue appeared to be fully lucid; his rut must have ended.
Chen Yanzhi complained in a raspy voice, “I’m starving.”
“Dinner is ready. It’s all your favorites,” Fu Tingyue said, walking to the bedside to pick Chen Yanzhi up. He personally helped Chen Yanzhi wash up before carrying him downstairs.
Chen Yanzhi leaned against Fu Tingyue’s shoulder and suggested weakly, “Next time, can’t you prepare some food in advance? I starve every single time; I really can’t take it.”
Fu Tingyue seriously accepted the suggestion: “There wasn’t time to eat, but I can prepare something next time.”
Chen Yanzhi made a demand: “You make it yourself.”
Fu Tingyue had no bottom line: “Okay. Just tell me what you want to eat in advance.”
Chen Yanzhi was slightly satisfied, then began to nitpick again: “I’m so tired. Did you hit me while I was asleep? My whole body is aching.”
Fu Tingyue couldn’t help but laugh softly. “How is that possible? It just lasted a long time. Your stamina isn’t great, so it’s normal to feel tired. You can sleep some more after eating.”
Fu Tingyue carried Chen Yanzhi into the elevator. After a moment of hesitation, Chen Yanzhi spoke up, “Fu Tingyue, I still remember what you said. What about you?”
Fu Tingyue paused, then nodded. “I remember. I will give you time to think it over slowly. Don’t force yourself. No matter what, I will always be by your side.”
“What does that mean?” Chen Yanzhi looked up at Fu Tingyue’s perfect jawline. “You can accept it even if I like someone else?”
Fu Tingyue said expressionlessly, “If you like them, I will try my best to restrain myself from killing them.”
Hearing this, Chen Yanzhi was satisfied. He couldn’t help but smile. “That’s too scary. Murder is against the law.”
Fu Tingyue showed a rare forceful side: “I won’t kill him, but I have plenty of ways to make him leave you.”
Chen Yanzhi was in an excellent mood. He reached up and pinched Fu Tingyue’s earlobe. “Don’t sound so terrifying. Do you think I would pass up someone I grew up with, who understands me perfectly, and who has secretly loved me for many years, just to choose a stranger in this world? You forgot that after arriving in this world, I’ve been with you after just one month. I simply don’t have the time or energy to get to know anyone else, and I’m not in the mood. I am a firm heterosexual.”
The underlying meaning was that if he truly didn’t like Fu Tingyue, it was even less likely he would like anyone else. Of course, this was just a hypothesis. He had to admit that he had a slightly different feeling for Fu Tingyue, but it wasn’t deep enough yet; he had to confirm it properly.
