Pretty Puppy

"Damn it, I nearly pissed myself. He looked way too much like sister-in-law."

"But he was still a little different. His pupil color, and his pheromones, were clearly Alpha..."

He Xiaowu rubbed his arms. "No, no, he was still different. His pheromones were more aggressive. Even if he wasn't releasing pheromone pressure, you could still feel the intimidation."

"Do you think he might be the same rank as the boss? An Enigma?"

"I think that makes sense. He really didn't seem like an Alpha. If he released pheromone pressure, we'd probably be kneeling on the floor."

"But that face really did look alike. Even his build and everything. Just his pupils and pheromones were different... Could he be sister-in-law's older brother?"

"I remember the master mentioning a treasure he picked up, right? Could sister-in-law have lost his memories and been separated from his family?"

The few of them stood there, tossing out all kinds of wild analyses, and successfully pieced together a melodramatic soap opera.

"That actually sounds kind of plausible. Which one of you should call the boss?"

"Why don't we go find the boss? This is way too exciting. He's the same rank as the boss—an Enigma! You couldn't find one even among a hundred thousand people, yet we ran into another one. What kind of insane luck is this?"

"Let's go, let's go. Forget food for now. The gossip is more important."

The discussion came to an end.

Outside the door.

Bian He placed the man in the car and made a call.

"Find out whose people those guys who came to the restaurant belong to."

Destroy the surveillance footage?

That would only make it seem more like he was trying to hide something. The master was too smart; doing nothing was best.

He drove home.

Wan Ying was a clean freak. After spending the entire day outside, he had gone straight home and collapsed on the bed. He would probably be so angry he tore the bed apart.

Holding him with one arm, Bian He easily removed his clothes.

"Wan Ying is going to bathe with me."

He dared to be bold.

There was no need to rush.

Late at night.

Bian He dried his hair, then held his treasure and fell asleep.

"He sleeps too deeply. After all that tossing around, he still didn't wake up. Would I go unnoticed if I went a little further next time?"

He buried himself in the man's neck and drifted off to sleep, thoroughly satisfied.

He slept soundly all night.

The phone on the bedside table was muted, its screen lighting up again and again.

In the morning, sunlight flooded the room. It was already past nine.

Wan Ying rubbed his aching head. His headache felt so severe it was about to burn through his skull.

What had happened to him last night? He had no memory of it at all.

How had he gotten home? Had Bian He brought him back?

It seemed he would have to carry medicine more often in the future, so he would not have to suffer through headaches and unbearable drowsiness.

He looked at Bian He, who was sprawled on top of him with all four limbs clinging to him.

No wonder he had dreamed all night that Bian He, turned into a puppy-shaped rock, was pressing down on him. He really had been pinned down all night.

It had even given him nightmares.

Such a big thing lying on top of him—did he really think of himself as a one-month-old Little Treasure?

Wan Ying felt disgusted for a moment and poked Bian He's nose.

"If you dare climb on top of me again, get lost."

"You're heavy as hell."

"You sure slept well. You made me have nightmares all night."

"What kind of Little Treasure is this clingy? Didn't I tell you not to climb onto the bed? Why are you up here again?"

"You never listen to a word I say. Disobedient Little Treasures should be punished. How should I punish you?"

He rambled on for quite a while.

Bian He's eyes remained closed as his lips moved. "...Delicious..."

He really was sleeping soundly. He was even eating him in his dreams.

Wan Ying smiled helplessly and lightly scraped the bridge of his nose.

"With such a high nose bridge, who are you trying to seduce?"

"You're so pretty. You have to stay by my side for the rest of your life."

Just as he was about to wrap an arm around his waist, he suddenly felt a pain in his palm.

He spread his hand open and looked.

Wan Ying's face instantly darkened.

After a long silence, he sighed helplessly. "So I've been raising a perverted Little Treasure too."

Taking advantage of the time when he was unconscious to do something so naughty...

Little Bian He was getting bolder and bolder.

At this rate, he really would climb onto his head.

Peeing?

He would not give him that chance.

It was filthy.

His thoughts were a mess early in the morning.

"You're so greedy. Should I collect some interest, then?" Controlling his strength, Wan Ying bit the tip of his ear.

He was sleeping so soundly. How could Wan Ying bear to disturb him?

Wan Ying moved him to the spot where he had just been lying, released some pheromones, and let him sleep even more soundly.

He turned over and got out of bed, taking his phone to the next room to wash up.

With a casual glance, he saw several missed calls on his phone.

Why were those guys calling him during the holiday?

Standing by the window, he returned the call.

Several heads appeared on the phone screen. Only then did he realize it had been a group call.

Had these people not slept? They sure picked up quickly.

"What is it? Did something happen again?"

He Xiaowu shook the camera around excitedly. "Director, Director, I have an earth-shattering secret to tell you."

"I'll say it, I'll say it. None of you are allowed to fight me for it."

"I have to be the one to say it. I was the one who went up to talk to him yesterday. Otherwise, you wouldn't even have had the nerve."

He Xiaowu said excitedly, "Director, yesterday we saw an Enigma who looked a lot like your Omega. His pupil color was different, though, and his pheromones weren't Omega pheromones."

"His pupils were light blue, and his pheromones were incredibly strong."

"He was holding someone in his arms too. We thought he had betrayed you, so we went up and confronted him. Turns out we had mistaken him for someone else."

"His voice was so cold, and he sounded so fierce. He even said something about courting death... I was so scared I didn't dare make a sound."

The others all spoke over one another.

Wan Ying caught the key point. "You said he was holding someone in his arms. Where did you run into him?"

He Xiaowu answered foolishly, "At that restaurant where we used to hold gatherings. Their food is really good. The few of us played pool until late, then thought we'd grab a bite nearby."

"Boss, don't you think this is a surprise? Another Enigma appeared in this city. He was definitely an Enigma. His pheromones felt a lot like yours, full of oppressive force."

Seeing how excited they were.

Wan Ying had his answer. Bian He had probably carried him downstairs, run into people he knew, and changed his pupil color back to normal because he was afraid Wan Ying would get angry.

But what about the pheromones? Could they be disguised too?

He did seem to have heard of people disguising their pheromones to act as spies.

Could his Little Treasure be hiding something from him too...

Enigmas—two Enigmas should not be able to be together.

Even if they forcibly stayed together, leaving aside whether they could mark each other, they would not be able to have children of their own.

Bian He was excited: Director Wan wanted a child that belonged to them?

Wan Ying resisted: You heard wrong. I didn't want that.
