This Alpha Is So Devoted to His Wife - Chapter 67

Lu Xinghe’s  forehead was throbbing. The hand gripping the steering wheel gradually tightened. He even felt the car’s air conditioning was set a bit too high and had never found driving to be such a difficult task.

During the red light interval, that hand beneath the steering wheel started acting up again.

It yanked off his belt and undid his button.

“Xingxing, it’s moving.”

And he had to ask such a sincere question.

Lu Xinghe took a deep breath, removed his hand from the steering wheel, and pressed down on the increasingly presumptuous hand: “It’ll be bad if it doesn’t move, but we can’t do anything right now. Be good. We’ll be home in ten minutes.”

Heaven knew how he had managed to restrain himself for the last ten minutes.

Duan Yuluo  was sitting sideways, his eyes half-closed. His hand never left Lu Xinghe. Suddenly, he thought of something, and his eyes lowered: “…Lu Xinghe, someone bullied me today.”

The traffic light turned green.

Lu Xinghe put his hand back on the steering wheel and stepped on the gas. Hearing the sound of aggrieved choking beside him, his brows furrowed: “Was it at the banquet just now? Who bullied you? I’ll go back and beat him up for you right now.”

“Code Name J.”

Lu Xinghe: “…”

“I think he was insulting me.”

Lu Xinghe: “…” How dare I? He cleared his throat: “How did he insult you?”

“He wouldn’t accept my money, five million. He told me it only cost five dollars. Isn’t that an insult to me? He must think I can’t afford it.”

Lu Xinghe: “…” How dare I take five million from my wife? “Maybe he just wanted to make friends with you.”

“Make friends?” Duan Yuluo turned his head, his voice slurring. He must have been truly drunk, because as he sat up, he lurched forward.

Lu Xinghe caught the movement in his peripheral vision, his expression sinking instantly. He quickly took one hand off the wheel and covered Duan Yuluo’s head, which was about to hit the center console. He then cupped his forehead and pulled him back, making him lean against the seat.

Fortunately, there weren’t many cars on this wealthy residential street. He reclined Duan Yuluo’s seat, letting him lie down comfortably.

Due to inertia, Duan Yuluo fell heavily onto the seat back. Perhaps he hit his back and was uncomfortable, so he let out a pained sound with his eyes closed: “He bullied me, and you’re bullying me too, Lu Xinghe…”

“How could I dare to bully you?” Lu Xinghe continued driving, glancing occasionally at the drunk little troublemaker in the passenger seat: “You are not allowed to drink next time. If you have to go to places like that, bring someone who can drink.”

“Do you know how inappropriate he is!” Duan Yuluo was fuming just thinking about it. He sat up, looking at Lu Xinghe with drunken eyes: “He, he hacked into the Group’s computer, showed me a dog, and even sent a rose! I think he has ulterior motives.”

Lu Xinghe’s lips curved slightly. Seeing him sitting up and swaying, he helplessly freed a hand to steady him: “Why do you assume ulterior motives? Can’t he just be trying to make friends?”

“It’s fine if he sent the dog, but how could he send a rose?” Duan Yuluo pulled out his phone. His vision was blurry, and he couldn’t see the screen. He lowered his head and squinted: “I need to ask him what he means.”

As he spoke, his glasses bumped against the phone screen, knocking his eyelid and making him yelp in pain.

Furious, he took off his glasses and tossed them at Lu Xinghe.

Lu—Innocent yet not-so-innocent, Code Name J—was hit: “…”

The next second, Duan Yuluo hugged his phone and burst into tears.

Lu Xinghe: “???”

“…Wuu, I can’t see clearly, I can’t find him…” Duan Yuluo bent down, clutching his phone, trying very hard to see the screen, but his vision was too blurred. He cried out loud: “I have to find him…”

Lu Xinghe couldn’t help but laugh, a mix of helplessness and amusement. He could only gently stroke his back with one hand while the other steered the car into the garage.

All the lights in the house were on, and the garage door slowly opened.

The car finally stopped.

Lu Xinghe first opened the driver’s side door and got out, then went to the passenger side, opened the door, and carried the still-crying Duan Yuluo out, also taking his phone, worried it might be thrown at him next.

“I need to find him and ask him clearly.” Duan Yuluo wrapped his arms around Lu Xinghe’s neck and buried his head, crying: “He, he can’t do that. It wouldn’t be good if Lu Xinghe misunderstood.”

Lu Xinghe laughed, placing him on the car hood. Seeing him sweaty from crying, he took off his jacket: “I didn’t misunderstand.”

Duan Yuluo looked down, scanning left and right anxiously: “Where is my phone?”

“Here.” Lu Xinghe handed the phone to him.

Duan Yuluo took his phone, half-closed his eyes, realized he couldn’t see clearly, and looked up for help: “Xingxing, can you help me send him a message?”

“What do you want to send?”

“Just…” Duan Yuluo swayed, nearly falling forward. He quickly hugged Lu Xinghe, resting his chin on his abdomen, and looked up: “Just ask him who the hell he thinks he is to speak to Young Mr. Duan that way.”

Lu Xinghe was highly entertained: “Alright, I’ll ask him for you.”

Duan Yuluo held his phone out to Lu Xinghe with both hands, his gaze sincere and sparkling: “Thank you.”

Lu Xinghe chuckled, took his phone, opened the social app, found his account, typed the exact words into the chat box, and then flipped the phone for Duan Yuluo to see: “I sent it.”

Duan Yuluo felt dizzy and too weak to look at the screen, so he leaned on Lu Xinghe’s abdomen: “Will he get mad then? After all, he did help me.”

“He won’t get mad.”

“Did he reply to me yet?” Duan Yuluo looked up and asked.

Lu Xinghe gave a wry smile. How could he reply right now? He could only shake his head truthfully: “No reply.”

Duan Yuluo instantly grew anxious.

Duan Yuluo snatched his phone, rubbed his eyes, trying to force himself to see the screen, but realized he was truly too dizzy. He instantly burst into tears and directly hugged Lu Xinghe:

“Wuu wuu wuu wuu… I’m doomed. He didn’t reply. I shouldn’t have said that. He’ll definitely get angry and won’t help the Galaxy Group anymore.”

Lu Xinghe was helpless with the crying ancestor, so he used one hand to support him and the other to take his own phone out of his pocket, rapidly typing a few words.

Duan Yuluo felt his phone vibrate. He looked at Lu Xinghe in surprise: “Did he reply to me! What did he say!”

He handed the phone back to Lu Xinghe.

Lu Xinghe professionally took Duan Yuluo’s phone and glanced at it: “Mm, he said you swore well and that you should chat more in the future.”

Duan Yuluo tilted his head: “?” His mind was blank, offline for a few seconds.

“Alright, let’s go inside.” Lu Xinghe saw that he was likely done crying, so he lifted him face-to-face and walked back into the house. Who knew that as soon as he was picked up, he would bury his face in his shoulder and start crying again.

But this time, Lu Xinghe did not laugh.

“Xingxing, I really am so tired today, wuu wuu wuu…” Duan Yuluo hugged Lu Xinghe’s neck, finally letting down his guard and venting his distress: “…Why are people always bullying Galaxy? Bullying Galaxy is bullying me, isn’t it? Do they think I don’t deserve this position?”

Lu Xinghe held the Omega in his arms. Just holding him, he could feel that he had lost weight during this period. How could he not feel heartbroken hearing this? He was deeply distressed.

He was working frantically to make money right now for Duan Yuluo, too.

But he would never keep Duan Yuluo at home after earning so much money. This person would absolutely never become a caged canary. He was born to be a beautiful eagle, and what Lu Xinghe could do was protect him to the best of his ability.

“Who else bullied you? Tell me.”

He carried him and walked back into the house and up the stairs.

One shouldn’t shower immediately after drinking. Lu Xinghe placed the man on the wavy low platform beside the bathtub and first wiped him down and changed him into dry clothes. Seeing that he couldn’t sit straight, wobbling slightly, yet still smiling sweetly at him, like a drunk kitten, he was utterly adorable.

“Xingxing.”

“Hmm?” Lu Xinghe used a warm towel to wipe his face. His small face was wiped clean, and the hair on his forehead was slightly damp.

Duan Yuluo leaned forward, pressing his cheek against Lu Xinghe’s abdomen. Perhaps the clothes were uncomfortable, so he lifted his shirt and burrowed his head inside, muffled beneath the fabric: “…It must be your grandmother who bullied me, trying to steal my patent, wuu wuu wuu wuu…”

Lu Xinghe’s expression slightly changed. He stood still, the hand holding the towel hanging by his side. He looked down at Duan Yuluo, who was crying tucked inside his shirt. The shirt was ballooned out by his head. Perhaps feeling the wetness rubbing against his abdomen, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them, they were full of fury.

Stealing Duan Yuluo’s patent?

He was afraid Duan Yuluo would suffocate, so he tossed the towel into the bathtub, used one hand to pull his own T-shirt off, and threw it into the bathtub as well.

Duan Yuluo felt a coolness on his face. He looked up, his eyes meeting Lu Xinghe’s slightly dark gaze. He pointed a finger, mumbling drunkenly: “You’re so fierce.”

“Baby, tell me what happened today. It wasn’t just a simple source code leak, was it?” Lu Xinghe picked up Duan Yuluo and placed him on the adjacent sink counter, bracing his arms on either side of him.

Duan Yuluo lowered his head: “My Guardian Chip was almost stolen. This is the one I worked overtime for two months on…” Saying this made him even sadder: “I have to work overtime every single day.”

Lu Xinghe thought of the IP he had traced that afternoon that touched the source code: “So someone wanted to steal the Guardian Chip source code and attacked the Group’s system?” It seemed he needed to investigate this tomorrow. What piece of trash dared to touch Duan Yuluo?

“Mhm.”

“It’s alright. Tomorrow, I’ll replace the Group’s system with our Haven system. Your current system’s security level isn’t the highest, and your programmers don’t seem very reliable.”

“Not reliable?”

Lu Xinghe felt a sting in his chest. Looking down, he realized Duan Yuluo’s fingertip was touching him. His throat bobbed, and the vein in his neck throbbed slightly. He reached out and held the other’s hand: “No, I’m not unreliable. I’ll install the system for Galaxy for free, including all the cloud services and data that we can follow up on.”

“Xingxing, I love you.” Duan Yuluo wrapped his arms around his neck and his legs around his waist: “You promised you would hug me when we got home.”

Lu Xinghe listened to his non-sequiturs, knowing he was quite drunk. He didn’t bother to say anything, as he’d probably forget it all tomorrow, and simply picked him up to go to bed:

“Mm, alright. I’ll hug you now.”

Walking back to the bedroom, Duan Yuluo pointed at the sofa, his words slurred: “…Do it, do it here.”

Lu Xinghe: “?” Sit on the sofa?

He could only listen to his wife. He walked to the sofa and sat down, holding the man on his lap: “Do you want to sit here?”

“I want to do it here,” Duan Yuluo said, placing his hands on Lu Xinghe’s chest and straddling him. His wet eyes looked intently at him.

Lu Xinghe hadn’t quite grasped what the difference was when he felt the ancestor in his arms start pulling at his waistband. Yes, pulling at his waistband, and also actively pulling his own down.

Duan Yuluo knelt on the sofa, slightly rising up. He supported himself with his hands. Perhaps finding it a little difficult, his brows furrowed. Or perhaps feeling impatient with his own sluggishness, he sat down directly.

The Omega in his arms was like a proud swan, never showing weakness in the process of conquering the beast.

His neck was arched back and tense. Sweat beaded and slid down his cheeks. The skin outside his clothes was porcelain white, flushed crimson from the slight intoxication, even the veins looked delicate.

Perhaps he was a giant in action but had not finished his psychological preparation, as in less than a minute, he couldn’t support himself and grabbed the other’s shoulders, lowering his head. His shoulders and arms trembled, and his whole body shook uncontrollably.

He was trembling down to the arches of his feet, even letting out soft sobs.

Lu Xinghe gazed deeply at Duan Yuluo, his hands supporting his thighs. All his restraint and forbearance were hidden beneath his muscular arms. He took a deep breath, leaning against the back of the sofa. His jawline, tight from the deep breath, was clearly defined, communicating how close he was to losing control.

The moment was too sudden.

Too sudden for both of them.

And it hurt.

Duan Yuluo’s eyes were red: “…Lu Xinghe, you, you’re going too far.”

Lu Xinghe cupped Duan Yuluo’s back neck, pulling him closer and forcing him to look him in the eye. His gaze was deep and hot. After a few seconds, he spoke: “Baby, you’re the one who’s making the false accusation first.”
