midsummer night

The first time he received news from Lu Chengfeng, He Xiyuan felt that it was Lu Chengfeng's curiosity about their similar experiences.After all, I met an old man whom I didn't remember for many years, but had almost the same life trajectory as him.

But Lu Chengfeng is an Alpha from a superior background after all, having wealth, time and spiritual freedom when he was young.He is tall and handsome, with a face that has not been suppressed, and a strong body that has not been tortured.His temperament stood out early on among his peers who were anxious about taking exams and climbing the social class.

All roads lead to Rome, and he was born in Rome.After completing his studies in a top university, Lu Chengfeng has almost all the paths he can choose. Even if he does nothing, he still has a family office to help him manage his wealth and a trust to maintain his inherited property.In terms of power and money, he has enough leverage.

He Xiyuan thought that the other party had forgotten him for a long time, and even if he remembered for a while, when the freshness of the reunion passed, he might be forgotten among the crowd.

Every time we met each other, looking into Lu Chengfeng's deep eyes, he silently said in his heart to look at each other once or less.Those eyes will eventually focus on other people and things.

Lu Chengfeng's partner is probably a beautiful, tall and thin Omega, just like his mother Zhu Yannian, the years will only increase her beauty.

His partner will have similar hobbies to him, vacationing in southern Europe together in summer, skiing in Switzerland in winter, and riding horses at the stud farm on weekends.The walls of the manor where they live are covered with flower vines, and the indoor banquet hall is decorated with complicated wallpapers and portraits of family members.

The person in the portrait stands on a high wall, wearing a gorgeous golden trailing dress and a custom-made gemstone necklace, looking at the dust floating in the indoor sunlight with deep eyes.

Lu Chengfeng's family member Alpha is tall and handsome, Omega is elegant and beautiful, and every generation past and future has continued their genes.

And He Xiyuan is just an inconspicuous Omega in the crowd. He has lived as a Beta for many years, and has lost his obvious Omega characteristics and the appearance of an Omega according to social conventions.

Many years later at night, he might find the news about Lu Chengfeng's marriage while looking at his mobile phone in the apartment in Beidu.He would click on the message to read carefully, zoom in on the photo, and try to identify the face in his memory, and maybe he would save the original picture of the press release in the phone album.

After that, his life continued, getting up every day to take the subway to work, and being a bystander of the other person's life trajectory.

He was too young to know that the probability of things happening is not changed by personal will.The following ten years have repeatedly verified this fact. Even if they follow each other's trajectory step by step, their lives will hardly overlap.

Although he is young, his heart is getting closer and closer to silence and desolation as the years grow.

When He Xiyuan went to see the house with the agent, the other party chatted endlessly while walking, and occasionally asked if He Xiyuan had a partner.

The intermediary is a young Alpha, wearing corporate uniforms, a cheap black suit and a pair of uncomfortable-looking black leather shoes.

He may be a few years older than He Xiyuan, and he turned to look at He Xiyuan when he was led into the room.

He Xiyuan looked at a shared apartment, in which two Betas lived, and one bedroom was vacant.There are white T-shirts and white socks hanging on the balcony, which makes him feel crowded and boring.

He said to the agent: "I only rent with Omega roommates, and I don't need to recommend others."

The agent smiled and asked, "Why, do you want to live with Omega and develop a relationship?"

He Xiyuan only said: "I either live alone, or find Omega to share the rent, the requirements are as simple as that."

There was obvious sarcasm in Alpha's agent's tone: "Alpha didn't even dare to say that she wanted to find an Omega roommate when renting a house. Why do you have so many demands as a Beta?"

He Xiyuan said casually: "Alphas should stay away from Omega naturally, and I will not have any impact on Omega's life. If all Alphas stay together, the life of Omega and Beta will be much better. One thing to say, your information Most of the ingredients don’t smell good either.”

The intermediary looked like he wanted to hit someone, but he didn't do it.

It happened to be busy during the weekend on weekends, so I could only make an appointment to look at a small apartment in the evening.The landlord gave the key to the agent. After He Xiyuan entered the door, he stood by the window and looked at the scenery outside the window. There was a little smog visible, gray but not thick, and the orange-red twilight floated outside the window through the particles.

When he turned around, the agent was standing behind him, with a hand on his shoulder.

He Xiyuan frowned, moved aside, and said, "What's the matter with you?"

The intermediary's hand was still on his shoulder, and he smiled.

The strength of his hand was strange, and He Xiyuan couldn't shake it off.

The agent stared at him slowly and said, "I've thought about it, you have to share the rent with Omega, and you have to live by yourself. You're so particular about it, but you're actually an Omega, right?"

He Xiyuan looked into the other person's eyes and said, "This has nothing to do with you."

The intermediary did not let go: "I guessed right?"

He Xiyuan's movement of turning around and throwing away the other party was avoided. The Alpha agent seemed to be wearing a bloated and cheap suit, but his reaction was quick.

He smiled happily, and the light in the room and outside the window dimmed.He walked towards He Xiyuan, as if he wanted to suppress his body with pheromones.

He Xiyuan ran to the door, but the agent didn't follow.He went out the downstairs door and went to the subway station, and returned to Lin Xin's house in a daze.

He called the police after he got home. His heartbeat was still violent when he spoke, and the pressure from the other party's fingers almost near his neck had not dissipated.

But the police told him: the Alpha agency denied the attack on He Xiyuan, and reprimanded He Xiyuan for hiding his gender and approaching him with ulterior motives.There wasn't enough evidence on both sides, so it wasn't enough for an arrest.

Lin Xin sat next to him and listened, feeling incredible: "Alpha is becoming more and more perverted now. They should take inhibitors at the same age, or implant inhibitors, or remove the glands if it doesn't work."

He Xiyuan sat in the living room feeling extremely tired.Lin Xin's ex-boyfriend has not been resolved yet, and now there is another intermediary.

There are so many Alphas outside the door, besides these two, there are countless people squatting behind the darkness, ready to pounce on him and lock his throat at any time.They move between stairwells by night and office buildings by day as colleagues, partners, strangers and men in uniform, ready to strike whenever they get the chance, either by name or by waiting.

Alpha's motivation to hurt Omega is always there, all he is waiting for is the opportunity to make a move.

And He Xiyuan has nothing but inhibitors and a pocket knife.

The inhibitor couldn't make him completely invisible, and the longest blade of the jackknife was only ten centimeters long, so it couldn't kill him in one blow.

Apart from Alpha, the one who slaughtered Omega also had the entire social system.The cage of power binds Omega in it, making them fear forever, forced to find a safe place forever, and finally can only enter Alpha's lair, achieve the perfection of the other party's life, and defeat the symbol of 50% Alpha group.

He Xiyuan never thought about having children.If his child were an Omega, he would surely repeat his fearful fate.

He didn't want to say anything about the brokerage, knowing that his victimization experience would make him appear easier to some potential perpetrators.

But Lin Xin told Lu Chengfeng about the intermediary.

When she attended the wedding, she deliberately left Lu Chengfeng's contact information.The family hoped that she would find an Alpha partner to settle in Beidu as soon as possible. Since He Xiyuan was not dating Lu Chengfeng, she wanted to give it a try.Even if there is no result, Lu Chengfeng is still a powerful contact.

But connections to He Xiyuan are an extremely vulgar concept, almost as decadent as human relationships.Since he was young, he has not cared about useless success studies. He has always been able to call the top management of the industry by his first name, and his attitude is similar to that of interns. He is friendly and keeps a distance.

Calling Lu Chengfeng senior is already respectful, although he also called Yan Xun senior, but a discerning eye can find that this senior is not that senior.

Over the years, he has concealed his gender, and he is also used to his existence being always neutral in the eyes of others, without bright colors.

When He Xiyuan received a message from Lu Chengfeng before leaving get off work on Monday, telling him that the driver's car was waiting for him downstairs, he didn't know why Lu Chengfeng came.But he couldn't keep Lu Chengfeng waiting, so he went downstairs.

After getting on the car at the parking spot, he sat next to Lu Chengfeng in the back seat.He was still at a loss when the car started, Lu Chengfeng only said that he was going to have a meal, and then he stopped talking.

He Xiyuan smiled obediently, but was still puzzled.It was obvious that Lu Chengfeng was not in a good mood, but he asked him out for dinner because he was in a bad mood, maybe there was something else going on.This can't even be called a meal appointment, Lu Chengfeng only informed him 15 minutes in advance, and the car was two blocks away from Jianling.

Lu Chengfeng's face was very sharp, with deep eye sockets, broad shoulders and long legs. Even wearing a pheromone suppression bracelet, he felt extremely oppressive.

There was no smile on his thin lips, and his eyes looked a little sullen under thick lashes.

Half an hour later, the driver stopped in front of a Russian restaurant.He Xiyuan and Lu Chengfeng walked in, and a tall manager greeted them.

He heard the manager call a title he had heard in St. Gettysburg: "Vlad."

There was a rich aroma of meat and milk in the restaurant, Lu Chengfeng didn't look at the menu, and spoke a few words to the waiter in Russian.His voice is more transparent than usual, and the sound of each syllable in his lips and tongue is like whiskey with ice, soaked in ice cubes seems to have a calming effect.

After Lu Chengfeng finished ordering, he randomly pulled out a white napkin and spread it on his lap, and said, "It's getting cold, so I thought of taking you to dinner."

He Xiyuan: Meow meow?
