Over The Top! He Keeps Making the Gold-Digging Alpha Cry - Chapter 25

Xu Wanxing was utterly confused. Why was everyone today saying he had a scent on him?

He returned to the dorm.

Seeing Pei Yu in the room, Xu Wanxing greeted him, grabbed a few changes of clothes, and headed for the bathroom.

The moment he walked past Pei Yu, Pei Yu grabbed his arm.

Pei Yu frowned. “Why do you smell like another Omega? This doesn’t seem to be your own scent.”

Damn it, this is the third person.

What scent exactly is it?

Xu Wanxing sniffed himself, looking completely bewildered. “Is there a scent? Why can’t I smell it?”

Pei Yu nodded. “Your entire body is covered in an Omega scent. It’s a very dominant sea flavor. Is this your best friend?”

Sea flavor? Omega?

Isn’t that the protagonist shou?

Oh, right. The protagonist shou was in heat, so maybe Lu Yanbai accidentally got his scent on him.

In a certain hotel, the “accidental” Lu Yanbai sneezed. Did his Baby miss him?

Last night, seeing Xu Wanxing asleep, he completely enveloped Xu Wanxing with his pheromones, only relaxing when the scent covered him from head to toe.

Xu Wanxing answered vaguely. “Uh-huh… is the scent very strong?”

Pei Yu nodded.

“Can it be washed off?”

Pei Yu chuckled. “Didn’t you pay attention in physiology class? You need a scent neutralizer spray for this. The scent of pheromones is quite unique.”

Xu Wanxing, who had never taken a physiology class, silently took note.

An ordinary Omega’s heat lasts seven days, but for Lu Yanbai, a strong Omega, he only needed three days.

The Bossy Visitor

Three days later.

A knock came from outside the dorm—steady and with a specific rhythm.

Pei Yu glanced toward the bathroom. Xu Wanxing was inside taking a shower; the sound of running water could be heard.

Is it his friend?

He got up and opened the door. “Hello, are you looking for Xu Wanxing?”

Outside the door stood a tall, handsome, dignified man with a faint smile on his lips. His eyes, full of affection, were gorgeous and captivating. He held a large bouquet of vibrant pink roses.

He wore a high-collared shirt and long trousers, perfectly showcasing his imposing physique: broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.

He was the epitome of a domineering Alpha, the super-rich kind.

Pei Yu’s heart instantly tensed. This man was slightly taller than him.

He tightened his grip on the doorknob, making the veins bulge on the back of his beautiful hand, which was often admired by fans—like a bold streak of blue on a pure white canvas.

The man nodded. “I’m his partner. May I come in first?”

Pei Yu, who was blocking the doorway, said, “…Yes, come in. That’s his seat. You can sit there for now. Xu Wanxing is taking a shower.”

The man nodded, sat down, and opened his phone to handle some business.

A moment later, Xu Wanxing finished his shower, drying his wet hair as he emerged from the bathroom. His eyes widened when he saw the person sitting at his desk.

“Husband! Why are you here?!”

His face showed a mix of surprise and delight.

Pei Yu was nearby, seemingly focused on his computer screen, but secretly watching them through the reflection.

Is he really his partner?

He’s even calling him ‘Husband’?

Is this the so-called partner who drove the luxury car to take him back to school before?

Shen Yuxian?

Lu Yanbai was sensitive to other people’s gazes. He subtly glanced at Pei Yu and beckoned Xu Wanxing. “Come and sit.”

Xu Wanxing approached. “Where? There are only two stools here. One belongs to my roommate, and you’re sitting on the other.”

Lu Yanbai reached out and pulled Xu Wanxing into his lap, laughing. “Sit on my lap.”

Xu Wanxing’s face instantly flushed. His eyes darted nervously to Pei Yu. He clutched Lu Yanbai’s shirt and whispered, “Husband, what are you doing? Someone else is here.”

Lu Yanbai smiled but didn’t reply. “Why is your hair so wet? Give me the towel. I’ll help you dry it.”

Watching the two of them being affectionate, Pei Yu felt uneasy, his mind restless even as he watched the fierce team battle on his screen.

He did harbor some vague, complex feelings for Xu Wanxing, but now Xu Wanxing’s partner was right there, making it clear he was staking a claim. Pei Yu wasn’t blind; he knew it was directed at him.

That Alpha looked fierce. He didn’t seem like a good person.

A simple Omega like Xu Wanxing could easily be deceived by a big bad wolf of an Alpha.

Xu Wanxing looked at the large pink roses on the table and tugged Lu Yanbai’s arm. “Why are you sending me these again?”

Lu Yanbai said, “They’re pretty. Don’t you like them?”

“No, they are quite pretty.” But as a straight man, being constantly given roses by Lu Yanbai always felt strange.

There are so many stories about being converted these days. If Lu Yanbai wasn’t the protagonist shou, he might even be worried.

Thanks to the protagonist gong, his feelings for Lu Yanbai are only pure socialist brotherhood.

In his mind, men should definitely be with women.

But in this ABO world, he felt out of place.

Lu Yanbai hugged Xu Wanxing’s back. Xu Wanxing gave a shiver. “Don’t do that. It’s really ticklish.”

Lu Yanbai curved his lips. “Baby isn’t a rabbit. Touching your back won’t cause a false pregnancy. Why are you so scared?”

Xu Wanxing stopped talking, frantically poking the System in his mind.

Xu Wanxing: 【Why is the protagonist shou so bossy? He just used that crude phrase on me! What should I do, System?】

System: 【I wouldn’t know! Your situation is quite rare. My two previous Hosts—one chased the protagonist shou for seven months, the other for a year and a half—and neither got together with him. Yet you captured this difficult person in just an hour. Host is very skilled, keep up the good work!】

What skills could he possibly have?

He knows his own limitations.

This is purely accidental. Maybe the protagonist shou had a screw loose and suddenly wanted him for some fun, you never know.

Xu Wanxing looked at the pink rose bouquet and noticed something amiss. “What’s that black thing in the middle of the flowers? Is it a bug?”

Xu Wanxing frowned, pulling the bouquet closer for a careful look.

…Why does it look so much like a bank card?

Xu Wanxing turned his head to look at Lu Yanbai in disbelief.

Lu Yanbai said, “Baby, aren’t you going to take it out and look? Or would you like me to take it out for you?”

Xu Wanxing watched as Lu Yanbai pulled the bank card from the pink roses and placed it in his palm.

“Here you go. This is your hardship pay.” Lu Yanbai kissed Xu Wanxing on the cheek.

Xu Wanxing clutched the bank card. “What hardship pay?”

“For accompanying me these three days. You had to go back and forth between school and the hotel, attend classes during the day, and sleep with me at night. Doesn’t that deserve hardship pay? I wouldn’t let my Baby work for free.”

Lu Yanbai’s smile was gentle and affectionate. “There’s one million yuan in the card. Consider it your salary, Baby. The password is your birthday.”

Three days? A salary of one million yuan?

Was he bad at math, or was Lu Yanbai just too generous?

Being rich is great!
