No Peeking

Bian He tilted his head and thought for a moment. "But I've never taken suppressants. Before, I always just endured it. Maybe I'm used to it, but with every heat, it gets more serious."

"Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble. I'm good at enduring things. If this happens again, I'll lock myself in my room. As long as I get through one night, I'll be fine."

"From now on... you don't need to spend so much money on me. I'm sorry, I forgot about my heat. I'll definitely remember next time."

Bian He lowered his head, looking dejected.

He had changed into ill-fitting clothes again, with parts of his arms and legs exposed.

He didn't want to mark him. It seemed he didn't like him that much after all.

Was he not obedient enough?

As Wan Ying listened to Bian He, his mind was filled with the words, just endure it.

Endure it. Even an Alpha might not be able to withstand the torment of a heat.

An Omega without pheromone comfort—how terrible must that have felt?

"You're being kept by my side, so naturally I'll cover your living expenses from now on. You don't need to save money for me. I make enough for you to buy whatever you want."

If he was dressed up nicely, he should feel at least a little proud too.

Bian He rubbed against the man's leg and teased coquettishly, "Aren't you afraid I'll spend all your money? Then you'll have no choice but to wander the streets with me."

Wander the streets? Beg along the roadside?

Did he really look that weak? If he couldn't even afford to keep an Omega, what kind of man was he?

Wan Ying laughed at Bian He's innocent expression and ruffled his messy hair. "If you can spend all my money, I'll admit you're impressive."

He had hardly ever spent money on anyone before.

"I need to go out for work these next couple of days. Be good and stay home. Go to the cafeteria when it's time to eat. I'll leave you money, or you can eat out yourself, but be careful. You're not allowed to get another Alpha's scent on you."

The instructions slipped out before he could stop them.

Wan Ying froze.

Why was he getting softer and softer now?

Forget it. He had just gone through a heat, and his body was still weak.

He couldn't go too far. What if he ruined him? Where would he find another one?

After finishing the day's work.

Bian He obediently followed beside him, and they rode home together.

He looked out the window and noticed that the car was heading in a different direction from home.

His breathing tightened, and he grabbed the handrail as he shrank backward.

His voice trembled softly. "Did I do something wrong today and make you angry? Or did I look ugly during my heat? I promise I'll never go into heat in front of you again..."

Wan Ying woke from the noise and looked at Bian He's reddened eyes. "What's wrong? Why are you acting crazy?"

Bian He's body trembled uncontrollably. With a thud, he dropped down.

He clutched Wan Ying's hand and begged, "I really know I was wrong. I'll never make you angry again, and I won't spend your money carelessly..."

His voice was thick with intense unease.

Bian He lowered his head in apology, tears splashing onto Wan Ying's clothes.

Wan Ying fully woke up and sat straight.

He lifted Bian He's chin. "Are you in heat again, or did the fever fry your brain?"

Pearl-like tears slid from the corners of his eyes, rolling down his cheeks one after another.

Little Treasure was beautiful even when he cried.

Bian He sniffled, his eyes red from crying. "I'll be good and listen to you. I'll eat less. I can go without eating too. If you're angry, punish me, okay? I'll really be good..."

The fear in his eyes deepened.

Wan Ying frowned, completely confused.

What exactly was he afraid of?

"You..."

Just as he was about to speak, the car stopped.

Outside the window, the elderly couple stood waiting at the entrance.

Wan Ying rubbed Bian He's cheek and urged him, "Come on, get out first."

The moment he mentioned getting out, Bian He's expression changed and his emotions grew even more agitated.

Bian He hid motionlessly in the gap in the car. "I really know I was wrong... Don't leave me behind... I'll stay obediently by your side. I'll eat very little and won't waste money. I can work too. I can earn my own dog food..."

Every word struck straight at his heart.

Wan Ying narrowed his cold eyes and set down his coat.

"Bian He, come out."

Bian He was very obedient.

Wan Ying carefully examined his face.

His tear-stained face looked especially beautiful.

"Don't cry. I wasn't planning to leave you behind. I just brought you here for a meal."

"Why don't you look at the sign outside? This is a restaurant."

Bian He stared blankly at him, allowing himself to be pulled into his arms.

Even his eyelashes were wet from crying.

Where had this pitiful Little Treasure come from? He was so afraid of being abandoned again.

Perhaps because he hadn't received the comfort of a mark during his heat, he had inevitably become especially insecure.

Even though Wan Ying had said nothing, he was still afraid.

Seeing him completely dependent on him, begging him to take him in, filled the sense of satisfaction in Wan Ying's heart.

He had always known he wasn't a good person, and strange impulses often surfaced within him.

He had thought there were things he would never achieve in this lifetime, but he never expected someone perfectly compatible with him to appear in this world.

Though Omegas depended on Alphas to survive, they still carried a certain pride deep in their hearts.

Bian He gave him everything he wanted.

He always brought Wan Ying happiness when he least expected it, just as he did now.

"Bian He."

Wan Ying stroked his lips.

He comforted him for a long time.

Then he took out a soft wet wipe and cleaned his tear-streaked face.

He kissed away the tears on his face one by one.

"Don't be afraid. I won't leave you behind again. If I lost such an obedient Little Treasure, where would I find another?"

Bian He's face, pale with fright, gradually flushed red. His tearful eyes were full of trust and dependence.

He really was beautiful.

Bian He lightly pinched his collar. "You have to keep your word. You're not allowed to leave me behind again."

His neat clothes had been wrinkled by those fingers. In the past, he would have smacked that paw until it swelled.

He was pushing his limits more and more.

His patience ran out.

Wan Ying lightly smacked the paw. "The guests are still waiting outside. Are you sure you want us to appear in front of them looking so disheveled?"

Bian He panicked and scrambled out of the man's arms.

But he moved too wildly. Thud! He accidentally fell into the gap again.

Little Treasure ended up sprawled on his back, his toned waist exposed.

Wan Ying propped his chin on his hand and admired his awkward state.

He deliberately swung his long legs. "Whose legs are so long? My car can barely fit them."

Those long legs would probably wrap around his waist with ease.

Bian He's face heated up. Puffing out his cheeks, he complained, "Brother is so mean. You didn't even know to pull me up, and you just sat there making fun of me..."

"Can I wait in the car for you? I'm a little scared. What if they don't like me?"

After struggling out of the gap in the car at last.

He knelt in the gap with both hands resting on the seat, looking even more like a Puppy.

Wan Ying took out a new set of clothes. "Put these on first. Does it matter whether they like you? Shouldn't your attention be on pleasing me?"

Bian He tilted his head and thought for a moment. He picked up the clothes, hesitated for two seconds, then turned his back.

Wan Ying kept staring. Bian He had a great figure.

Broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.

Handsome features, puppy eyes... If he were another gender, plenty of Omegas would be chasing after him.

"You're not allowed to peek."

Wan Ying was watching with great interest when a jacket dropped over his head.

"Fine, I won't look. Sooner or later, I'll see every inch of you."
