midsummer night

He Xiyuan returned home and turned on the light, and sat in the room for a while.He couldn't figure out why Lu Chengfeng appeared, his hands were still trembling.Lu Chengfeng's grip on his wrist was fast and precise. The pheromone of the pine wood smell in the car melted into the air he breathed and into the blood, as if it needed drinking water and breathing to dilute it.

The post that has troubled him for many days is still there, and the speed of transmission is increased every day by screenshots from other platforms.

He hopes that the original post can be deleted, but the letter submitted to the administrator is currently only an automatic reply message, and there is no other reply.

Since Zhu Ping and Gao Qingnian already knew about it, but hadn't said it clearly, it means that this matter has not had any impact on his work for the time being. Omega is looking for a partner through the platform, which is not a good signal for work, even though this is a platform launched by private equity capital many years ago, and later government-invested companies took a stake and became an official matching platform.

I don't know when it started, this platform is one of the websites that all Omega in school must register.Because He Xiyuan skipped the experience of going to school in China, he did not register until recently. The identity he chose was an overseas account, and he used an email address.

He has great precautions against all websites that reveal his identity information. The false empty words that Alpha often talks about about human reproduction and national prosperity are actually trapping the fertile Omega group in the cage and abyss formed by Alpha.

He must keep his gender and estrus period secret, and keep his pheromones and physical condition unchanged in his daily life.

Huang Han didn't go to work the next day, and I heard that he asked for leave.

He Xiyuan had been busy all morning, had a few phone conferences with Gao Qingnian, then remembered the document Lu Chengfeng mentioned, said hello to Gao Qingnian and left.When He Xiyuan walked out of the office, he expected to come back, so he only brought the documents and put the computer on the table.

He didn't see the half-smile look on his boss's back.

After autumn, it gets dark early and catches up with the rush hour of traffic flow.Sitting in the car, he sent a message to Lu Chengfeng's assistant Clara: "I'm here to deliver the documents signed by the management. There's a bit of traffic jam. I'll arrive in 20 minutes."

After Clara received the message, she began to reply with a "good" word, and then called the two restaurants: "I will arrive at 7:15 in the evening, both of you, please ask for a quiet corner."

One is light and appetizing but unique southern dishes, and the other is Japanese barbecue.Yesterday, Lu Chengfeng told He Xiyuan to book two restaurants when he arrived, and then asked Omega to choose which one to go to.

From the moment she registered for an account on the platform, Clara noticed that He Xiyuan had a subtle and unusual meaning to her boss.Lu Chengfeng paid more attention to this senior than he paid attention to all other Omegas combined, including a certain model and rumored object, a famous daughter and a certain Beta starlet.

Apart from the fact that the little Beta stars are passers-by and rumors and hearsay in the circle, the first two are actually ordinary friends of Lu Chengfeng, and they met through his sister Leya.

Lu Chengfeng rarely revealed his personal feelings, even his family members rarely mentioned them.He appears mostly alone at work and in public.But because of his appearance, even if he is alone, he is enough to be dazzling in the crowd, and he does not need other beautiful women to accompany him.

In the morning, Lu Chengfeng called the law firm employed by the group in China.The other partner thought he was going to talk about M&A projects, so he answered the phone happily, turned on the speakerphone, and asked his subordinates to take notes.

Boss Lu said in a low voice, "I want you to deal with something."

Barrister: "You say."

Lu Chengfeng: "Send a lawsuit to the author of a post on a certain forum platform for copyright infringement, including the platform, and Clara will send you the details."

The partner thought he heard it wrong, and confirmed it several times before confirming that Mr. Lu really wanted him to deal with the deletion of posts on a social platform. There was no cross-border merger and acquisition, and it was just a simple operation to sue for infringement.

When Clara sent the information to the partner, the tone of the email was calm and unremarkable, just like the daily legal contract communication.

The two parties are separated by the screen, because they both have an employment relationship with Lu Chengfeng and have signed a very strict non-disclosure agreement, so they can't talk about Lu Chengfeng's private life, and can only gossip about [-] words and gossip offline.

Clara is a female Alpha, but she doesn't have much obsession with Omega.Her mother was Beta, and she never thought that she would have a child in this life, until she met a young Alpha in middle age, accepted a vigorous pursuit, and then gave birth to Clara.

The age composition of the family and parents destined Clara to be an unconventional Alpha.Her attitude towards Omega is more appreciation from afar than interaction.In the eyes of many Omegas, she, like her boss Lu Chengfeng, seems to be polite and distant, but in fact she is much more reliable than most decent Alphas.

It was already dark when He Xiyuan arrived at Lu Chengfeng's office.

After Clara sent the documents, she turned her head and glanced at the CEO's office through the French doors. Lu Chengfeng was holding the documents sent by He Xiyuan in his hand, and was talking to him standing across a desk.The boss is wearing a dark gray-blue suit, while He Xiyuan is wearing a light blue shirt and dark trousers.

He stood with his back to Clara, his legs and waistline were obvious, and the dark trousers outlined the rounded buttocks lightly.

Clara thought to herself: This Omega looks so cute, with a butt like a peach, no wonder Mr. Lu likes it.

The scene of He Xiyuan and Lu Chengfeng talking, to outsiders, has a sense of mystery and cuteness. It is not only a "senior and junior who reunited after many years" but also a "middleman between the buyer and the seller".Clara smiled, and poured out from her mind the yellow waste that the law firm partner had just forced on the phone.

Lu Chengfeng put away the documents, and the shirt with his initials embroidered was exposed from the cuff of his suit jacket.He looked down at He Xiyuan, and casually asked, "What has Jianling been up to lately?"

He Xiyuan: "The tastes of the executives have become strange in recent years, and they want to acquire a European Omega underwear brand."

Lu Chengfeng smiled: "Then do you still watch the mine?"

He Xiyuan: "Our department only looks at mining and energy."

Lu Chengfeng said: "Mining and energy are alpha-concentrated industries, from management to workers, from industry oligarchs to industry experts. It seems easier to choose TMT or consumption, or even the so-called underwear brand sector than mining. "

He Xiyuan shrugged and said, "They all thought I was Beta at first."

Lu Chengfeng laughed out loud, his deep eye sockets and eyelashes cast a small shadow under the light of the office.

He Xiyuan usually speaks too funny and cute.When he was an analyst, he talked like a robot, and when he met an Alpha who had outrageous thoughts, he could fight with a bayonet with one hand, and when he talked in private, he unintentionally revealed his talent for serious nonsense in a polite way.

But He Xiyuan may have been in a relationship with Yan Xun, their personalities are very different, how they got together, Lu Chengfeng has no way of knowing.

Although not confirming the fact, the moment this thought came, Lu Chengfeng's mood suddenly sank, as if bathing in the summer sun, a dark gray cloud suddenly drifted over, stuffy and hot, as if it was going to rain heavily.

He Xiyuan has no obvious traces of his Alpha partner, let alone pheromone marks.

Lu Chengfeng searched his memory for memories of being at the same school as Omega, and there were probably only a few intermittent scenes, not even a coherent plot.

The most vivid impression is only the smell of orange trees after the summer rain, and a number of pheromone matching.That report probably no longer exists. He hasn't been back to Xiadao for many years, and the doctor from that year has gone to another hospital.But this number has been printed in his mind, accurate to one decimal place.

He has only done one pheromone matching test. When he was a teenager, his body was affected by Omega pheromones, and he felt more doubts than anxiety.

But after the test results came out, he looked at the number and was relieved.It was just an accident, caused by a timid low-grade Omega, every time the other party left in a hurry, there was a sharp contrast with the summer tropical fruit information on him.

After that, Lu Chengfeng never received any obvious pheromone interference.Joined a fraternity in college, and Alpha brought a companion at parties.The long-haired Omega sat on his lap in a black silk dress, touching his neck with her lips.

Lu Chengfeng sat firmly, with a cigar in one hand, with a calm expression, watching the performance of the companions in the room under the lights.

In the middle of the journey, everyone gradually fell into a coma of alcohol and drugs. The companion couldn't sit still and almost slipped off the sofa.He stretched out his arms to support the opponent's back, steady and powerful, but then withdrew his hands without any other physical contact.

But He Xiyuan gave him a very different feeling. In the complicatedly decorated hotel lobby in St. Gettysburg, he saw him as soon as he turned his head, and he couldn't move his eyes when he saw him.

Thinking back to the ten years in between, looking at the information that the housekeeper and Clara found for him, from school to Jianling, from Old Jersey to Beijing, the other party was near him.

In many cases, they are only a few hours away from his university to He Xiyuan's school.In a short 10-minute walk, the investment bank building where he works is only two blocks away from the investment bank where He Xiyuan practices.

Any night in those years, they could meet them on a night out after get off work, passing by a bustling restaurant and bar area.During these years of streamers, they have passed by silently countless times in crowds, campuses and noisy conference calls.

By the time he recognized the person belatedly, the other person was already with Yan Xun.

But Lu Chengfeng didn't think that He Xiyuan and Yan Xun would last forever. The pheromones of fruits and marine life were different from all angles, and they might be poisoned if they were eaten together.

Since He Xiyuan is taking the initiative to meet Alpha, instead of letting him be secretly photographed by his date and hang up on the Internet, and confront Alpha in the same office after get off work, it is better to let him get closer to him, so as to fill in the gaps of these years.

He also heard from a friend back then that He Xiyuan liked him back then.I can't go deep into my memory, but excluding the influence of pheromones, Omega might really like me back then.

This gave him a very comfortable satisfaction for his self-esteem, like a family cat turning over after grooming to reveal its soft belly.
