Chapter 29: His Destined Mate? That’s His Rival!
Just as Ye Suxi had said, Shen Chi had only gone to the restroom once. By the time he returned, the gunpowder scent on him had already faded a lot.
Beneath Lu Chenzhou’s cold, stern expression, he was unbearably irritated.
Why could his pheromones not stay? Why could he not mark him? Why was he a Beta!
Yet precisely at this moment, Ji Yanzhi sent him an urgent message.
The clothes sent in for testing that morning had residual Omega pheromones on them, and their compatibility with Lu Chenzhou’s pheromones was actually as high as 88%!
One had to know that Lu Chenzhou suffered from pheromone disorder. His powerful and domineering S-rank pheromones, as long as they matched with any other Omega, would strangle that Omega’s pheromones and leave them no room to survive. Under such circumstances, once he got together with a certain Omega and his pheromones went out of control, that Omega was very likely to die under his pheromones.
And if Lu Chenzhou could not receive comfort from an Omega’s pheromones, his disorder would only worsen his pheromone frenzies.
In order to treat his disorder, Ji Yanzhi had gone to the matching center countless times, but unfortunately, every attempt had ended without results.
He did not know whose clothes these were. He only knew that his boss could be saved!
After sending the message and receiving no reply, Ji Yanzhi was so excited that he called directly.
“President Lu, an 88% compatibility rate. Congratulations! You can be saved!”
“No matter what method you use, you must keep this adorable little Omega. He will be your lifesaver!”
“Oh right, President Lu, when you first met him, did you feel anything else?”
…
Doctor Ji, who had always been calm and steady, was now so excited he had become a chatterbox and could not stop talking.
Lu Chenzhou said, “Yes.”
Ji Yanzhi was so excited he nearly jumped up. “Then what did you feel when you first met him?”
Lu Chenzhou sneered. “I wanted to kill him.”
Ji Yanzhi: …
Ji Yanzhi: ???
Ji Yanzhi: !!!
That should not be right!
There had never been a 100% compatibility rate in this world. Anything above 90% was already considered a match made in heaven. At the matching center, both parties would usually be notified once compatibility exceeded 70%. With Lu Chenzhou’s special condition, 88% basically made them destined mates. According to the theory of Alpha-Omega attraction, this compatibility should have been enough for them to fall in love at first sight.
And yet, what did he say?
He wanted to kill the other person?!
Ji Yanzhi was dazed. “President Lu, did I hear that correctly?”
Lu Chenzhou lazily hummed in response. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shen Chi eating fish, so he said confidently, “Secretary Shen, fish. Thank you.”
What else could Shen Chi say? Of course, he could only resign himself to serving him. In any case, this was not the first time he had served him, and besides, this man paid far too much.
“Of course, President Lu.”
He picked up a piece of fish and carefully removed the bones, showing not the slightest impatience throughout the entire process.
Lu Chenzhou held his phone, perfunctorily dealing with Ji Yanzhi while looking at Ye Suxi provocatively.
Ye Suxi gripped his chopsticks, emotions surging in his eyes. A moment later, he gave the other party a cold smile and also began picking fish.
If Shen Chi picked out fish bones for Lu Chenzhou, then he would pick them out for Shen Chi.
“Mr. Shen, I invited you here today, but I ended up leaving you no time to eat. That’s my fault. This is fish I picked out for you. Hurry and eat.” As he spoke, he curved his eyes and thoughtfully handed his own bowl over.
Inside the bowl were several pieces of fish without bones. Shen Chi paused and looked at him blankly.
No, why give it to him?
Give it to the male lead!
Sure enough, the moment Ye Suxi handed over the fish, Shen Chi felt a chilling and sinister gaze fall on him.
A cold sensation spread from the soles of his feet, and all the hairs on his body stood up.
How was this fish? This was his last meal before execution!
Seeing that he remained motionless, Ye Suxi’s eyes immediately became aggrieved. “Mr. Shen, you don’t like it?”
Ji Yanzhi did not know about the battlefield here. He only heard Lu Chenzhou calling for Secretary Shen. After a moment of silence, he remembered correctly that it was already after work hours.
“President Lu,” Ji Yanzhi said, “Secretary Shen is there too?”
Lu Chenzhou said, “I happened to run into Secretary Shen, so we’re having a meal together. What’s the problem?”
Ji Yanzhi knew how special Shen Chi was. Precisely because he knew, he had a headache. “That Omega…”
Lu Chenzhou interrupted him. “Leave it for now.”
Ji Yanzhi was helpless. “What about the clothes? Should I have someone send them to your home?”
Lu Chenzhou clicked his tongue, sounding extremely disgusted. “Naturally, return them to wherever they came from. Why send them to my house? It’s not as if I’m some pervert.”
Ji Yanzhi: …
Had you perhaps forgotten, noble sir, where that Beta’s clothes you sent for testing not long ago ended up?
They ended up at your house!
Lu Chenzhou said, “I’m hanging up. The fish Secretary Shen picked for me is getting cold.”
After hanging up, he took the initiative to reach out.
Earlier, Shen Chi had seen that Lu Chenzhou was on the phone and had not given him the fish. Seeing this, he put down his chopsticks. But instead of taking Shen Chi’s bowl, Lu Chenzhou took Ye Suxi’s bowl.
Shen Chi:!
“System, the domineering CEO is jealous! He took the male lead shou’s bowl!”
The system was still shaken. [Good thing you didn’t eat it!]
Ye Suxi was not Shen Chi. He said coldly and directly, “President Lu, that is my bowl.”
Lu Chenzhou’s chopsticks had already reached inside. Although he had not eaten anything, Ye Suxi still felt that the bowl… was dirty now.
He gnashed his teeth, while Lu Chenzhou curved his lips and apologized with absolutely no sincerity. “Sorry, I saw wrong.”
As he spoke, he took Shen Chi’s bowl instead.
He began eating elegantly. During this, he even looked at Ye Suxi with great “thoughtfulness.”
“Why is Mr. Ye looking at me? Oh, I took your bowl. Do you want it back?”
Ye Suxi was so angry his vision nearly went dark. Sure enough, Alphas were truly disgusting and shameless!
“No need!” he said angrily. “I’ll have the server bring me another bowl.”
Lu Chenzhou did not care at all. Not only that, he even placed his own bowl beside Shen Chi’s hand.
“I used your bowl. Use mine.”
His bowl was very clean. Lu Chenzhou had not eaten much earlier. Shen Chi, as a straight man, did not have that many delicate thoughts and did not see any issue with it. All he saw was that Lu Chenzhou and Ye Suxi had interacted!
“Epic progress!” Shen Chi nearly wept with joy. “Next time they meet, maybe they’ll privately pledge themselves to each other.”
The system praised him without hesitation. [Human, you’re amazing!]
Shen Chi was as happy as a little puppy wagging its tail, his whole person smiling brightly.
“Oh right, President Lu, who did you say you wanted to kill just now?”
Once happy, Shen Chi could not help gossiping.
Lu Chenzhou already suspected that Ye Suxi was the Omega from the alley last time. Before this, he had painstakingly tried to find him. But now that he had truly found him, he was utterly uninterested. No, not merely uninterested. He even wanted to kill him.
Trying to steal his person? Seeking death.
“That Omega who hit me last time. I seem to have found him.”
Shen Chi paused, then suddenly looked toward Ye Suxi.
Ye Suxi was also an Omega. The moment Lu Chenzhou opened his mouth, he said he wanted to kill another little Omega. So brutal. He had better not frighten Ye Suxi. He was already afraid of Alphas to begin with.
“Even a delicate little Omega could beat you.” Ye Suxi smiled, his tone dripping with sarcasm. “Is President Lu really an Alpha?”
Lu Chenzhou nodded lazily, not showing the slightest embarrassment or anger. Instead, he sighed and said, “That’s why I need Secretary Shen.”
Hearing this, Ye Suxi could not even eat anymore.
Bitch!
