Chapter 35 ·
Lu Xi didn’t touch Wen Qingmo’s phone, and she never took her eyes off the few messages. She didn’t stand up slowly until the screen went dark again.
Song Xuan means… the effect of the temporary mark is almost gone?
Lu Xi remembered that when Wen Qingmo called him over to sign the contract at the beginning, Wen Qingmo also said that when his pheromones stabilized, he would no longer need to mark him.
Lu Xi remembered that at that time, she still wanted to ask how long it would take to stabilize, but Wen Qingmo kept her face cold at that time, so she didn’t have the nerve to say it.
A few months are not short, but in retrospect, it seems to be fleeting.
Even Lu Xi didn’t know what he was thinking, instead of giving the phone to Wen Qingmo who was in the bedroom, he went back to the kitchen.
The only connection between her and Wen Qingmo is the temporary mark.
Without the temporary mark, if she moved out of the villa, it would be tantamount to cutting off all the intersections of Wen Qingmo.
Is there any reason for them to meet again later?
Judging from the few messages sent by Song Xuan, Wen Qingmo should have known about this matter, and had made an appointment to go to the hospital today, but missed the appointment.
Why didn’t Wen Qingmo tell her?
…
Lu Xi’s thoughts were confused, and he repeated the action of chopping vegetables unconsciously.
Borscht is her specialty dish, and Lu Xi prepared it quickly almost by relying on muscle memory.
The fragrance was overflowing, and Lu Xi was going to the bedroom to call Wen Qingmo, when footsteps came from behind, Wen Qingmo walked out slowly wearing a coat.
His complexion looked better than before, but his hair was still a bit messy, and he looked much thinner than usual. Wen Qingmo took a look at Lu Xi, pulled the seat by the dining table, and sat down: “Is the meal ready?”
“…Why did you come out? I was going to ask you if you want to eat in the bedroom?” Lu Xi said.
Wen Qingmo shook his head: “I don’t have this habit.”
As he spoke, he raised his head, looked around, and locked his eyes on the sofa: “Help me get the phone here.”
Lu Xi’s heart tightened, and she suddenly felt nervous about the exam results. She didn’t say anything, but went to the sofa and picked up Wen Qingmo’s cell phone, and handed it to him. She no longer dared to look at Wen Qingmo’s expression, and turned to go There is food in the kitchen, but the ears are always paying attention to the movement behind him.
After a while, only a slight bump was heard, and Wen Qingmo put the phone on the dining table.
It seems that he has read those few messages from Song Xuan.
Lu Xi held his breath, waiting for Wen Qingmo to tell her the truth.
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
It was as quiet as ever.
Lu Xi held the rice bowl and turned around for no reason. Wen Qingmo, who had lowered his head, noticed her gaze and looked back.
Wen Qingmo: “…”
Lu Xi: “…”
“What’s the matter?” Wen Qingmo felt a little guilty when Lu Xi stared at him like this, he couldn’t help frowning, and asked.
“…Uh, it’s okay,” Lu Xi smiled awkwardly, and raised the rice bowl in Wen Qingmo’s hand, “I just want to ask you if the rice is enough for you?”
Wen Qingmo nodded: “That’s enough, you can serve whatever you want, no trouble.”
“That’s good.” Lu Xi said, put down his rice bowl, and filled his own. As soon as he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
Wen Qingmo’s natural expression made Lu Xi even more confused.
Obviously, Wen Qingmo couldn’t have missed those three messages and Song Xuan’s missed call, but he didn’t say anything.
So the only explanation now is that Wen Qingmo doesn’t want her to know that the temporary marking effect is about to end.
As for why…
Lu Xi’s fingers pinching the edge of the bowl tightened.
Could it really be what she thought?
She finished the meal and put it on the dining table, Wen Qingmo looked down at the food in the bowl with a slightly surprised expression, then looked up at Lu Xi with a smile in his eyes: “Your cooking is pretty good.”
“Of course.” After being praised, Lu Xi had the urge to **** his tail, “Try it quickly.”
Wen Qingmo picked up the spoon, took a sip of the soup and put it into his mouth, he swallowed it with a sip of his lips, the soup in the bowl was very hot, and the lingering heat surged upwards, and a light mist formed on Wen Qingmo’s lenses , he straightened his body, and the white mist also disappeared, his lips became red from drinking the soup: “It’s well done…I didn’t even know you could cook.”
Lu Xi really changed a lot.
He was completely different from the person in his impression.
“There’s a lot you don’t know.”
Lu Xi sat down opposite him.
Wen Qingmo was a little surprised that she would say such a thing, and raised her eyebrows: “For example?”
Lu Xi glanced at him.
for example…
For example, right now, I kind of want to kiss you.
Supporting the table, I leaned over to kiss you.
dear you…
Lu Xi: “Cough… For example, I can cook other dishes.”
She pulled away from her fantasies in time, and replied in a regular manner.
Wen Qingmo smiled again, lowered his head and took a sip of the soup, and said vaguely: “… I don’t know if I still have a chance to eat it.”
Just as Lu Xi was about to say “Of course I have”, her cell phone rang.
Lu Xi walked to the coffee table, picked up her mobile phone and looked at it, it was an unfamiliar number, she didn’t remember it.
But it wasn’t flagged as a nuisance call either.
Afraid of missing something, Lu Xi answered: “Hello? Hello.”
“Is it Xiaoxi’s sister?”
The man’s voice came from the other end, and Lu Xi thought it was very familiar, but he couldn’t remember who it was for a while.
From the corner of his eye, Lu Xi saw Wen Qingmo put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, and stared at him closely.
“It’s me, Song Xuan.”
“Ah, it’s Dr. Song!” Lu Xi suddenly remembered, but… “How do you have my phone number?” She questioned.
“The last time when Wen Qingmo’s pheromone was out of control, I saw your number on his phone, so I added it just in case.” Song Xuan explained.
“That’s it…then what do you want from me?”
Could it be because he couldn’t get in touch with Wen Qingmo that he came to him.
Thinking of this, Lu Xi turned his gaze to Wen Qingmo.
The distance between the two is not far, Song Xuan’s voice can be faintly leaked out, Wen Qingmo’s expression is shocked, mixed with helplessness and nervousness, with his hands on the table, Lu Xi rarely sees Wen Qingmo’s undisguised expression, always It felt like he would stand up and **** the phone away in the next step.
Song Xuan smiled: “Are you free tomorrow?”
“…I have no class in the afternoon.”
“You and Wen Qingmo come to my place tomorrow. I’ll measure the pheromone levels of both of you. If they are stable, it means that the temporary marking effect has disappeared.”
“okay.”
Lu Xi replied blankly.
“Okay, goodbye then.”
After finishing speaking, Song Xuan simply hung up the phone.
Lu Xi took away the phone, looked at the call that had ended, and then at Wen Qingmo.
“Doctor Song said…”
“I heard.”
Wen Qingmo’s rich expression just now has disappeared, and now his face is very indifferent.
“…”
Lu Xi was silent for a while.
Wen Qingmo’s mood… seems to have suddenly changed?
Not bad at all.
—
the next day.
Wen Qingmo drove Lu Xi to Tongjing Hospital.
Along the way, Lu Xi could feel the low air pressure around Wen Qingmo.
Among them… seems to be mixed with a little anxiety?
Lu Xi couldn’t figure it out clearly, and felt that the atmosphere in the car was too depressing, so he took the initiative to ask, “Brother, how is your health? Are you feeling better?”
Hearing Lu Xi’s concern, Wen Qingmo seemed to be touched, his expression softened a little, and he said softly, “It’s much better.”
“In short, you usually eat less cold food, keep warm during your menstrual period, and don’t get too tired…” Lu Xi said again.
Of course, Wen Qingmo is an adult, how could he not know this.
But she just couldn’t help it.
Hearing Lu Xi’s instructions, Wen Qingmo’s expression darkened, he raised the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: “What if I can’t do it?”
He wanted to tell Lu Xi that he might not be able to take care of himself well.
He works very intensively, and when he is on a business trip, his menstrual period comes, so how can he rest.
When it hurts, I can only curl up on the bed alone.
He is unwilling to show weakness to others, and Lu Xi is the only person he wants to rely on.
“What?” Lu Xi didn’t hear clearly, and turned to look at Wen Qingmo.
“It’s okay.” Naturally, it was impossible to say the words a second time, so Wen Qingmo shook his head nonchalantly: “I see.”
The two arrived at the hospital soon.
Lu Xi is very nervous now.
Whether it was a text message or a phone call, what Song Xuan said was that the effect of the temporary mark might have disappeared.
The real results will not be known until the test is completed.
Selfishly speaking, Lu Xi hopes that the temporary mark can last for a while.
Not for anything else, just to have more chances to get along with Wen Qingmo.
“Here we come.” Seeing the two of them, Song Xuan stood up from his desk.
Lu Xi nodded: “Hello, Doctor Song.”
Wen Qingmo glanced at him without saying a word.
Song Xuan didn’t care, straightened his clothes and went out: “Come on, I’ll take you to have your blood drawn.”
…
…(Korea
After the blood was drawn, the results came out quickly.
When Song Xuan got the report, he cast his eyes on Wen Qingmo at first sight.
Wen Qingmo straightened his back subconsciously, his complicated emotions prevented him from knowing anything from Song Xuan’s eyes, so he could only ask, his words were full of urgency: “How is it?”
Lu Xi also stared at Song Xuan closely.
“As I expected,” Song Xuan put the report in front of the two of them, “The period of temporary marking is over, Wen Qingmo, you can completely pass the estrus period by yourself in the future with the help of suppressive drugs.”
Even though he had already been mentally prepared, Song Xuan’s words still hit Wen Qingmo’s heart like a heavy hammer. His Adam’s apple rolled up and down, and his fingertips pressed on the report, moving it lightly.
Wen Qingmo felt that Lu Xi beside him was looking at him, but he didn’t respond.
Song Xuan looked at Wen Qingmo whose expression was obviously wrong, and sighed secretly.
Now that she looks like this, I don’t know who was the one who got downcast when he heard “Lu Xi is necessary to pass the estrus period”.
This change is too big.
Song Xuan took a sip of tea, and waited for Wen Qingmo to calm down from his emotions: “If you have nothing to do, go, Mr. Wen, I’m not much more leisurely than you.”
Hearing what Song Xuan said, Lu Xi immediately wanted to get up, but just as she made a move, Wen Qingmo held her shoulders.
“Brother?”
“Wait, Lu Xi, sit here for a while.”
Wen Qingmo pointed to the sofa and signaled Lu Xi not to move, then got up and walked in front of Song Xuan, his tone obviously much worse: “Come out, I have something to tell you.”
Song Xuan was not surprised by Wen Qingmo’s performance, he shrugged with a smile, and said to Lu Xi before going out: “Sister Xiaoxi, there is tea on the table, if you are thirsty, you can drink it yourself.”
Walking out of the room, Song Xuan closed the door behind his back, and walked to the end of the corridor with Wen Qingmo.
“What’s the matter?” Seeing Wen Qingmo stop, Song Xuan asked.
“Why did you call her directly yesterday?” Wen Qingmo turned around with a serious expression.
“Why didn’t you fight?” Song Xuan asked back, “She has the right to know that the period of the temporary mark is coming to an end, and I should also tell him, but you, how long are you going to hide from her? This is not good.”
Wen Qingmo took a deep breath and suppressed the irritability in his heart: “Didn’t I tell you, just wait a few more days—”
“Are you sure it’s only a few days?” Song Xuan teased, “I don’t think so.”
Wen Qingmo was choked by him, his brows were furrowed, and he didn’t speak for a long time.
Song Xuan patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: “You are hiding this matter, don’t you just want to spend a few more days with Sister Xiaoxi? You are angry now because I ruined your good deed.”
Wen Qingmo froze, turned his face away, and said in a stiff tone, “…I didn’t say that.”
Song Xuan put down his hands and ignored Wen Qingmo’s sophistry at all. He has understood this person’s duplicity for many years: “There are always times when lies are exposed, it is better to tell the truth from the beginning.”
Wen Qingmo: “…”
He clenched his fists, looking preoccupied.
Song Xuan smiled jokingly: “Why, can’t you miss your little sister Xiaoxi?”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Wen Qingmo raised his voice and immediately retorted.
“Then what’s your expression?” Song Xuan adjusted his posture, folded his arms across his chest, “If I remember correctly, you were hoping that the period of this temporary mark would end quickly and you would regain your freedom.”
“…”
Wen Qingmo’s chest heaved and he opened his mouth, but he didn’t say anything for a long time.
Seeing Wen Qingmo like this, Song Xuan almost died of laughter secretly. He hasn’t seen Wen Qingmo choked by himself to the point of being speechless for many years.
It’s all because of Lu Xi.
She really deserves to be Xiaoxi’s younger sister.
Take down Wen Qiuhan first.
Then Wen Qingmo was taken down again.
Those who didn’t know thought it was collecting stamps.
Noticing the twitching corners of Song Xuan’s mouth, Wen Qingmo coughed and looked at him dissatisfiedly: “Shut up your expression.”
“Okay, I’ll take it,” Song Xuan leaned against the wall, “In short… I will remind you that during the period when the temporary mark has not disappeared, the secretion of pheromone will make Alpha and Omega have a feeling of liking, but time Once that’s over, the pheromone effects—”
As soon as Song Xuan’s turning point came out, Wen Qingmo gave a “tsk” and interrupted him: “I know, you don’t need to say it.”
Song Xuan let out a long sigh: “Okay, okay, I don’t need to say, what do you like, I don’t care…Anyway, the inspection has been done, and you can figure out the rest.”
He spread his hands at Wen Qingmo, whose face was as cold as ice: “I suggest you think about it more, don’t be too impulsive.”
As a Beta, he is not controlled by pheromones, so he can see more clearly.
There are many Alphas who temporarily mark Omega after one/night/stand. The two don’t know each other’s personality and living habits, and they just become lovers under the encouragement of pheromones. Most of these couples will end disastrously after the temporary marking cycle ends.
After that, he turned his head and left.
Lu Xi held the report and waited in the room for a while, then Wen Qingmo came back.
“Brother.” Lu Xi stood up from the sofa.
She has a lot to say now, but she doesn’t know where to start.
He could only stand there and stare blankly at Wen Qingmo.
“Let’s go.”
“Then this report…”
“Just take it.” Wen Qingmo took a step back and stood at the door waiting for her.
Lu Xi nodded, and then walked out with Wen Qingmo.
From the time the examination results came out, she could feel that Wen Qingmo was in a bad mood.
When Wen Qingmo and Song Xuan went out just now, she thought a lot by herself.
She was sure that she fell in love with Wen Qingmo.
Although I don’t know whether Wen Qingmo likes her or not, at least I can be sure that Wen Qingmo will be nervous when seeing her hand injury, and will specially take her to the beach for her birthday, and invite her to live in her own villa when she has nowhere to go…Wen Qingmo doesn’t hate her .
Don’t hate it, everything has a chance.
As a mother single for more than 20 years, it was the first time that Lu Xi had the urge to chase someone.
Although Wen Qingmo seems to be quite difficult to attack, you have to try everything.
The matter is a foregone conclusion, the temporary marking cycle is over, she will definitely move out of Wen Qingmo’s villa next.
Then after moving away, she can invite Wen Qingmo to have a meal first to show her gratitude, and then on Wen Qingmo’s birthday, she can also give gifts…
Lu Xi thought, feeling a little dizzy.
Is this how you chase people? Seems a bit monotonous?
She knows that chatting is a good way to cultivate relationships, but Wen Qingmo is so busy, do you have time to chat with her?
Unknowingly, Lu Xi followed Wen Qingmo out of the hospital. Today’s temperature is very low, but fortunately, the weather is still sunny. As soon as Lu Xi walked to the car, his wrist was suddenly pulled.
Lu Xi turned around and looked at Wen Qingmo who suddenly grabbed her in surprise.
A small tremor came from the wrist, and Lu Xi was taken aback, only then did he realize that it was Wen Qingmo who was trembling.
Wen Qingmo also realized this, he clenched his fingers tightly, and only then stopped his slight trembling.
“Lu Xi.”
After a while, Wen Qingmo seemed to have made a great determination, and called out her name with a low voice, as sweet as gurgling water.
Lu Xi didn’t speak, but looked at Wen Qingmo seriously. The wrist that was close to her suddenly seemed to be burned, and it became scorching hot, burning all the way to her heart, and began to burn crazily.
Lu Xi felt his fingertips go numb.
The man’s black eyes are quiet and deep, so clear that they seem to be able to reflect her figure. There are many emotions in his eyes, nervous, shy, embarrassed, and unwilling to turn back…
“…Our contract is over.” Wen Qingmo said softly.
“yes.”
Lu Xi answered him with the same voice that was as low as a whisper.
At the same time, Lu Xi saw Wen Qingmo take a deep breath, blushes welled up on his fair skin, his eyes still drooped at the last second, avoiding Lu Xi’s gaze, the thick eyelashes trembled, carrying countless hidden thoughts in his heart emotion.
Wen Qingmo’s voice sounded in Lu Xi’s ear again.
“Can we just not end?”
