Chapter 64: Don’t Reward Him, Secretary Shen!
Even through the phone, Ji Yanzhi could feel that terrifying pressure.
He was stunned.
Was this still the Secretary Shen he knew?
But what shocked him even more was Lu Chenzhou. Not only did Lu Chenzhou not get angry, he even drooped his head in a completely spineless manner.
“I’ll go pick it up.”
Ji Yanzhi rubbed his eyes in shock. Not quite sure he had heard correctly, he could not help speaking up. “Just now, what did our President Lu say? Can he say it again?”
Shen Chi was still angry. With the bite-stopper on, he was not as afraid anymore. Hearing Ji Yanzhi’s words, he even dared to boldly go up and kick him.
“Lu Chenzhou, Doctor Ji told you to say it again!”
The tip of his foot kicked Lu Chenzhou’s calf, but he did not dare use too much force. Anger was anger, but Shen Chi still did not have the nerve to rebel recklessly. He was only venting a little.
Secretary Shen was very easy to satisfy. Seeing his footprint left on Lu Chenzhou’s suit pants, his mood improved. But when he looked up and saw Lu Chenzhou staring at him like a tiger eyeing its prey, he became a little cowardly.
“What are you looking at?”
He sounded fierce on the outside but weak inside, clearly lacking confidence.
Lu Chenzhou’s Adam’s apple moved slightly. Although his wife had lied to him and put a bite-stopper on him, his wife had just rubbed against his calf.
Thinking of the sensation that had come through his trousers just now, Lu Chenzhou’s eyes darkened. He first swept a glance at the phone in Shen Chi’s hand, which was an eyesore, then clicked his tongue. “Tell him to get lost.”
His cold, sharp voice was completely different from the way he had sounded just now.
After being scolded by him, Ji Yanzhi finally felt like he had returned to reality. “Yes, that’s the feeling. That’s President Lu, all right.”
Lu Chenzhou’s expression was foul. He wanted to cling to his wife, but he also disliked Ji Yanzhi, this third wheel, so he grabbed his wife’s hand and spoke softly.
“Baby, hang up the phone, okay?”
Shen Chi tried to pull his hand back several times, but all his attempts failed. So he glared at him again and insisted, “Doctor Ji is a doctor. If you don’t like him, then I’ll leave too.”
“No!”
Lu Chenzhou immediately objected.
The moment he thought of Shen Chi leaving, his pupils turned icy.
The hand gripping Shen Chi suddenly tightened. After all, he was in his susceptible period and in a state of emotional instability. A single look, a single sentence, could make him irritable.
His grip made Shen Chi’s hand hurt sharply, and tears almost came to his eyes.
Was this guy trying to crush the bones in his hand?
But under such force, the words that came out of his mouth were pitiful and wronged. “Baby, I’m scared to pick it up alone.”
Shen Chi was horrified.
On the other hand, Ji Yanzhi, on the other end of the phone, showed an expression of sudden understanding and delight.
“Secretary Shen!! Great news!!!”
Shen Chi almost spat. Great news, my ass. He was already mourning!
Ji Yanzhi seemed to have found some breakthrough point and quickly shared it happily. “Secretary Shen, you know President Lu’s pheromones are disordered. His susceptible period is different from other Alphas’. Not only is the timing different, even the state he enters during an episode is different.”
“In the past, during his susceptible period, he would become irritable and violent, treating everyone as an enemy. Whether Alpha, Omega, or even Beta, he treated them all the same.”
Shen Chi pulled Lu Chenzhou outside as he asked, “And now?”
Ji Yanzhi said, “He’s starting to resemble a normal Alpha! His emotions are no longer simply irritability and aggression. Instead, he’s showing emotions usually found during a nesting period. This is what happens when facing…”
Halfway through, he abruptly stopped. He remembered that Secretary Shen already had a partner. If Shen Chi found out Lu Chenzhou liked him, that might not be good.
Ji Yanzhi also could not figure out the relationship between these two right now. Afraid that he would mess things up, he quickly made a sharp turn. “When facing someone he trusts, that’s when this happens!”
As soon as he said this, a wild laugh suddenly rang out in Shen Chi’s mind.
[Hahahahaha! Trust! The first step finally succeeded!]
[Human, the two of us are amazing! In just a few months, we actually made the male lead gong trust us!]
The corner of Shen Chi’s mouth twitched. This damned stupid system—aside from watching the show every day, what else had it helped him with?
But the system had already immersed itself in joy. [Human, we’ve succeeded in the most difficult step. This is worth celebrating!]
Shen Chi looked woodenly at the certain mad dog wearing a bite-stopper.
He sneered.
Succeeded, my ass.
Since his wife was finally willing to look at him, Lu Chenzhou immediately transformed into a drama king. Realizing that he had hurt Shen Chi’s hand just now, he gently lifted Shen Chi’s hand and placed it against the bite-stopper.
“Baby, I’m sorry. I hurt you just now. I’ll blow on it for you, then it won’t hurt anymore.”
The roles seemed to have reversed.
Before, it had been Shen Chi coaxing him. Now, it had become him coaxing Shen Chi.
He did not care whether Shen Chi agreed or not. Through the bite-stopper, he began blowing on it gently and carefully.
Warm air passed through the gaps in the bite-stopper and touched Shen Chi’s hand. The usually cold, cruel domineering president had completely changed into a gentle and considerate good boss. But Shen Chi remained expressionless, quietly watching him perform.
“Baby, the air is being blocked.”
Shen Chi raised an eyebrow. Before he could finish, he coldly refused, “Don’t even think about it.”
Through the bite-stopper, Lu Chenzhou smiled harmlessly. “Baby, I haven’t even said anything yet.”
His thoughts had been guessed, but Lu Chenzhou did not panic at all. Instead, he looked at Shen Chi confidently and pushed his luck further. “Baby, I wanted you to put your finger inside.”
The gaps in the bite-stopper were not wide, but Shen Chi’s fingers were slender enough.
Without asking for permission, Lu Chenzhou stuffed Shen Chi’s finger inside. In the next second, Shen Chi felt a wet sensation on his fingertip.
His eyes widened, and he quickly pulled his hand back. His beautiful face was full of disbelief.
This guy had actually licked him?
He cursed him as a mad dog every day, and now he really treated himself like one!
“Baby, does it still hurt?” Lu Chenzhou stared at the hand he had pulled back, a trace of regret flashing through his eyes.
Of course, a hand alone could not satisfy him, but his wife’s expression was far too adorable. He decided to forgive him just this once.
Shen Chi was so angry that he clenched his fist, jumped up, and punched Lu Chenzhou on the head.
Hurt, my ass!
I’ll smash your dog head open!
Shen Chi’s movement was like countless dog owners pounding their dogs on the head.
He was truly furious and completely forgot his character setting. Even scolding Lu Chenzhou would get him punished, let alone hitting him.
Sure enough, in the next second, the system sounded an alarm.
[Warning, warning. NPC has assaulted the male lead gong. Random punishment mode is about to begin.]
Shen Chi had already lost it. Hearing this, he rolled up his sleeves.
Hitting once was still hitting. Hitting twice was still hitting. Since he was going to be punished anyway, he might as well get his money’s worth!
But just as he was about to begin the second round of head-smashing, Lu Chenzhou suddenly curved his lips into a sickly smile.
“Baby, you’re so sweet.”
“You’re even cute when you hit people.”
“If your hand hurts, I can bend down and let you continue.”
Shen Chi: ?
System: […Ew!]
Ji Yanzhi said, “Wow, as expected of an S-level Alpha’s nesting psychology. Secretary Shen, friendly reminder: hitting him is rewarding him. Ordinary-level beating doesn’t really hurt an S-level Alpha.”
“Oh, not necessarily. It may not hurt, but he might find it very pleasurable.”
