Ye Shaoyang didn't know how Chi Shu dug out this post.
Back then, he didn't quite understand the relationship between Alphas and Omegas in this world. Wanting to seek the views of the natives, he ran to the forum for help in a fit of frustration.
He created the alt account "Alien" and deliberately used words like "colleague, project, team building" to hide the real information. He never thought that one day this post would be exposed.
And exposed right in front of Chi Shu?
Ye Shaoyang looked away guiltily and pretended to be calm. "Why are you suddenly interested in posts on this kind of emotional forum? This OP is obviously making up a story; can't believe it!"
Chi Shu said stubbornly, "Not necessarily. I have a careless Omega beside me who is quite similar to the OP, also learned physiology poorly. Doesn't know the meaning of a temporary mark, doesn't even know the difference between Alpha male and Omega male, and is hell-bent on apologizing to his 'good bro'."
Chi Shu held Ye Shaoyang's waist tightly with his left hand, controlling him in his arms, while his right hand reached to the desktop and quickly slid the mouse, freezing the webpage on one of the replies in the forum post.
The "Alien" OP replied: "This project is very important to us. I can't affect the whole team due to personal reasons. After the project ends, I will apologize to my bro seriously."
"At that time, any compensation method he wants is fine."
Seeing the words he once wrote, Ye Shaoyang regretted it until his intestines turned green.
Any compensation method is fine?
Ye Shaoyang indeed thought so at the time, always feeling very sorry for Chi Shu. His carelessness dragged the innocent Chi Shu into the water. He originally planned to apologize properly to Chi Shu after the World Tournament. At that time, whatever compensation Chi Shu wanted, he could agree to.
But now, he suddenly regretted it.
Felt like he dug a big pit for himself?
Ye Shaoyang tried hard to smooth things over: "In the OP's eyes, Alpha male and Omega male are both guys, just simple good bros. He definitely didn't expect to be with this good bro back then, so he thought about apologizing properly to compensate for the mental damage his good bro suffered?"
Chi Shu asked in a low voice, "Then what compensation method do you think his 'good bro' should ask for?"
Ye Shaoyang's voice became quieter out of guilt. "I don't know! This OP's story isn't necessarily true; why are you so serious…"
Before he finished speaking, Chi Shu suddenly gently bit Ye Shaoyang's ear while whispering, "Still pretending? Need me to use your computer to log into the forum to verify?"
Ye Shaoyang went numb all over.
Pressed against the computer desk from behind by the tall Alpha, Ye Shaoyang's body couldn't move at all. The ear was his very sensitive spot; being bitten felt like electricity running down his spine.
Ye Shaoyang turned stiffly to look at Chi Shu. The Alpha's eyes showed no emotion, not like anger, nor the usual gentleness, just looking at Ye Shaoyang calmly.
Ye Shaoyang swallowed nervously. "I… alright, I admit it! I made the post."
Still pretend in front of Chi Shu?
His vest (alt identity) had long fallen off cleanly.
The two were so tacit; Chi Shu could recognize Ye Shaoyang from "Alien's" way of speaking. The time of each post by the OP matched the progress of their story completely. How could there be such a coincidence?
Plus, Ye Shaoyang just said "first time strangers, second time familiar" today, and Chi Shu saw the OP's bold words in the post: "Marked by bro anyway, first time strangers, second time familiar."
Who else could such a careless Omega be but Ye Shaoyang?
Chi Shu had already confirmed "Alien's" identity; no amount of excuses from Ye Shaoyang would work.
Thinking of this, Ye Shaoyang coughed guiltily and bit the bullet. "Sorry. I didn't clearly understand what an Alpha marking an Omega meant back then. Thought it was just mutual help between friends, and let you mark me again and again. This approach was indeed bad; I should formally apologize to you…"
Meeting Ye Shaoyang's apprehensive eyes, Chi Shu suddenly lowered his head and kissed him, blocking his words on his lips.
This kiss was more passionate than any previous kiss.
The Alpha forcibly conquered territory as if declaring ownership. Ye Shaoyang's legs soon went weak from the kiss, almost unable to stand. He had to support himself on the computer desk, passively enduring Chi Shu's kiss.
After a long time, Chi Shu pulled back, whispering against his lips, "Since you lack physiological common sense, as your fiancé, I have a responsibility to let you know the true difference between an Alpha male and an Omega male."
Ye Shaoyang froze for a moment. Before he could react, he was picked up by Chi Shu in a princess carry.
Chi Shu walked towards the bedroom. Xiao Bai seemed to sense its owner was in danger, ran over meowing, and blocked Chi Shu from leaving. Chi Shu shut Xiao Bai outside the bedroom door, placed Ye Shaoyang on the bed, and pressed over him.
Realizing what he was going to do, Ye Shaoyang instantly blushed. "Wh-what are you doing?"
Chi Shu answered grandly, "Teaching you physiological knowledge."
Ye Shaoyang hurriedly said, "I understand now, no need to teach, really!"
Chi Shu stopped his movements and looked into his eyes. "Is that so? You want to go back on your words?"
Ye Shaoyang: "How am I going back on my words?"
"You clearly said, any compensation method is fine?"
Ye Shaoyang: "..."
He indeed dug a big pit for himself.
"I liked you for so long. Every time I marked you, I thought about taking good care of you and cherishing you." Chi Shu looked at him and said seriously, "Yangyang, I treated you as the Omega I want to protect for a lifetime. Result: You only treated me as a tool-man? Human suppressant? Good bro?"
Ye Shaoyang: "…"
He was indeed in the wrong about this matter; no way to whitewash it.
Chi Shu sighed lightly. "I only learned today that it was all my wishful thinking."
Ye Shaoyang's heart softened slightly. He hurriedly grabbed his hand and said, "Sorry, I was indeed thick-headed before and didn't think that much. But, I have fallen in love with you now. I'm with you because I like you. Although you ran faster than me on this track, we reached the finish line together in the end, right?"
Chi Shu corrected, "Wrong. When I reached the finish line, you hadn't even started running."
Ye Shaoyang: "..."
Seems to be the case? When Chi Shu had already imagined 100% progress and wanted to marry Ye Shaoyang, Ye Shaoyang still treated him as a "good bro," 0% progress.
Chi Shu ran the whole course alone before Ye Shaoyang slowly got enlightened.
So, how exactly to appease this Alpha's grievance?
Ye Shaoyang asked, "Then tell me, how do you want me to compensate?"
Chi Shu looked very seriously into Ye Shaoyang's eyes. "Yangyang, are you willing to let me completely mark you?"
Ye Shaoyang wasn't the transmigrator lacking physiological knowledge now. He already understood clearly how Alpha and Omega performed a complete mark through the Safe Marking Science Manual.
Complete mark required the Alpha to knot inside the body.
Really going to that step?
In the ABO world, Alpha and Omega were already engaged; completing the mark was also normal, right?
Since he decided to marry Chi Shu anyway, they couldn't just hold hands innocently after marriage. This day would come sooner or later.
Ye Shaoyang took a deep breath, looked away, and bit the bullet. "If you want, of course I'm willing."
A smile finally surfaced in Chi Shu's eyes. "You really like me now?"
Ye Shaoyang nodded without hesitation. "Really."
Chi Shu gently kissed his forehead. "Good. Then I won't fuss about the past."
Although at the beginning, it was actually Chi Shu who liked Ye Shaoyang first, imagining Yangyang liked him too and deciding internally to marry in the future, while Ye Shaoyang always treated him as a good bro.
But in the end, Yangyang also fell for him.
The two had different progress bars and were always talking across servers on this matter. But finally, their brainwaves connected to the same channel. The process wasn't very important.
At this moment, Ye Shaoyang was willing to be marked by Chi Shu for life.
It was enough to prove he truly liked the Alpha in front of him.
A trace of sweetness surged in Chi Shu's heart. He said seriously, "Yangyang, let's complete the lifetime mark."
Ye Shaoyang remembered the knowledge in the science manual and whispered, "For lifetime mark, does the Omega need to make some physical preparations? Like using some pheromone releaser or something?"
Chi Shu explained, "Your situation is special; you haven't injected drug suppressants anyway, so this step isn't needed." He paused, leaned close to Ye Shaoyang's ear, his voice low and gentle: "I am your suppressant, able to stabilize your pheromones. Similarly, I can also make your pheromones lose control."
Ye Shaoyang was very curious. What would Omega pheromone loss of control be like?
Anyway, he was a transmigrator, and his understanding of this world was limited to popular science articles, definitely not as detailed and comprehensive as Chi Shu's knowledge. So he simply lay flat and said, "Alright, then I'll leave it to you."
Chi Shu lowered his head again and bit his Omega gland.
Different from previous temporary marks, this time, unknown what Chi Shu did, Ye Shaoyang only felt like some seal was unlocked, and his body temperature began to rise slowly.
His whole person felt like having a fever, soon becoming sore and weak all over, losing the ability to resist.
So this was the feeling of Omega pheromones losing control?
Ye Shaoyang wasn't quite used to such a change. But immediately following, Chi Shu picked him up gently and walked into the bathroom, whispering, "Let's take a shower first. You need to relax more; I don't want to hurt you."
Ye Shaoyang asked, "Together?"
Chi Shu chuckled and asked back, "Do you have the strength to wash yourself now?"
Ye Shaoyang said righteously, "No, you help me."
The bold Omega wasn't very shy about such things.
Yangyang's straightforward yet ignorant appearance made Chi Shu's heart flutter incomparably.
He would definitely treat Yangyang very gently, personally teaching his Omega—what a lifetime mark was.
