Duan Xu blinked, then closed his eyes to enjoy the kiss. He realized that he was like a parched desert, and Shen Yanlang's kiss was like rain; he desperately needed the nourishment of rain.

When Shen Yanlang got up, Duan Xu subconsciously chased after him, wanting more.

Shen Yanlang pinched his chin and said in a hoarse voice, "Do you still want to eat? Hmm?"

Duan Xu pouted, looking aggrieved, "If you want to eat it, hurry up and make it, I'm hungry."

"Okay." Shen Yanlang smiled and kissed him again before turning around to continue preparing the ingredients.

[If only Xuxu could stay this clingy forever.]

Duan Xu snorted inwardly upon hearing this. No way! A mature omega wouldn't cling to his alpha all the time!

Shen Yanlang prepared three dishes and a soup, all of which Duan Xu liked.

Duan Xu appetite and finished two bowls of rice and a bowl of soup, even letting out a satisfied burp, "Burp~"

"Hehe..." Shen Yanlang couldn't help but chuckle, "Looks like my cooking skills are pretty good."

Duan Xu touched his ear somewhat embarrassedly, but his words remained true to his word: "It's very good."

"Do you want to keep eating like this?" Shen Yanlang wiped his mouth and asked casually.

[I'll move out when school starts; it'll be more convenient, and I can cook for Xuxu every day.]

Duan Xu paused, his almond-shaped eyes fixed on Shen Yanlang, his expression complex.

There was surprise, emotion, joy, and also shyness.

Shen Yanlang raised an eyebrow slightly as he looked at him. "You don't want to?"

[You should think about it.]

[Besides... Xuxu's gender has changed, so the school will definitely change his dorm.]

"No, I think," Duan Xu answered him first, then thought about what he was thinking.

Shen Yanlang is right. He had forgotten about the gender issue. Male betas can live with male alphas, but male omegas are absolutely not allowed to.

Shen Yanlang smiled and casually suggested, "Then shall we rent a place to live outside after school starts?"

Duan Xu lowered his eyes slightly, thinking that his heat was about to begin, and living together after that seemed like a natural thing to do, so he gave a small "hmm".

Shen Yanlang blossom eyes curved into a smile, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up. "Then let's look at houses later, and settle on one as soon as we find a suitable one."

"Hmm." Duan Xu nodded.

Afterwards, Shen Yanlang went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, while Duan Xu, having eaten his Duan Xu, wandered around the living room.

But as he strolled around, Duan Xu suddenly felt a bit hot and thirsty, so he poured himself a glass of water. After drinking it, he was no longer thirsty, but his body felt even hotter.

Duan Xu was puzzled. What was going on? Was the heating turned up too high?

He fanned himself with his hand without thinking, and even called out to Shen Yanlang, "Yan-ge, turn the heating down a bit when you come out later."

"Okay," Shen Yanlang replied.

Duan Xu's pheromones began to drift out continuously. At first, Shen Yanlang didn't notice anything wrong, since there had always been each other's pheromones in the room.

But as the fragrance in the air grew stronger, Shen Yanlang was suddenly startled. Forgetting about the dishes he had just washed, he hastily wiped his hands and ran out, calling out, "Xuxu!"

Duan Xu was lying on the sofa, facing the coffee table, feeling unbearably hot. His face and neck were flushed. He opened his watery eyes and looked over, whimpering like a small animal, "Shen Yanlang... I'm so hot..."

Shen Yanlang walked over in a few steps, squatted down and touched Duan Xu's forehead. It was very hot, and the pheromones around him were so strong that it felt like being in a sea of flowers, which made his eyes instantly red.

"Xuxu, Xuxu, don't be afraid." Shen Yanlang's voice was hoarse as he desperately tried to control himself and picked Duan Xu up in his arms. "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Mmm..." Duan Xu leaned against Shen Yanlang's chest, and was picked up by him as they went upstairs.

Duan Xu was restless in Shen Yanlang's arms. As soon as he got close to Shen Yanlang, the heat in his body lessened a bit. In addition, the presence of Shen Yanlang's pheromones made him subconsciously want to lean closer to relieve his heat.

Shen Yanlang's breathing became unsteady. "Xuxu, don't move."

With a heavy heart, he carried Duan Xu into the room, slammed the door shut with his foot, strode to the bedside, and laid him down.

"Shen Yanlang..." Duan Xu clung to Shen Yanlang's neck, preventing him from leaving, "I feel unwell..."

Shen Yanlang looked down at him. Duan Xu's cheeks were flushed red, and even the corners of his eyes were slightly red. His eyes were already filled with tears, and one glance was enough to make Shen Yanlang lose his senses.

The air was filled with the sweet fragrance of jasmine, but the pheromones were so strong that the sweet fragrance turned into a rich aroma, mingling with the woody scent and the pheromones from the blazing sun, spreading throughout the room.

The scent of pheromones and Duan Xu's restless movements made it difficult for Shen Yanlang to hold back. "Xuxu... I'm going to get something."

Shen Yanlang knew Duan Xu was upset, but he couldn't act impulsively at this time. It was Duan Xu's first time, and he couldn't just leave him unprepared.

"Bear with it for now, be good." Shen Yanlang kissed Duan Xu, which could temporarily relieve his discomfort.

Shen Yanlang wanted to get up, but Duan Xu still clung to him, so he had no choice but to pick Duan Xu up and carry him to the chair, where he took out the things he had bought in advance from his backpack.

During this time, Duan Xu was still restless, causing Shen Yanlang's hand to tremble twice as he held the things.

[What a vixen!]

As soon as he got the things, Shen Yanlang picked up the person, turned around, and walked to the bedside. Without any more hesitation, he pressed the person down and kissed them.

Duan Xu felt like he was about to die from the heat, as if he were soaking in lava. Only when he was pressed against cool skin could he feel a little coolness.

The cool touch seemed to speak volumes; to relieve the heat, he obediently did whatever the other person said.

Duan Xu was in a daze. He felt like he had cried, but he didn't know why he cried. Anyway, he had cried.

After an unknown amount of time, the heat in his body seemed to have subsided considerably, and Duan Xu's consciousness gradually returned.

"Xuxu?" Shen Yanlang's deep voice sounded in her ear, gentle yet sexy, "Are you alright?"

Duan Xu turned his head to look at Shen Yanlang. His handsome features were too soft under the light, as if shrouded in a hazy glow, and his affectionate peach blossom eyes were full of his reflection.

But after only a moment of eye contact, Duan Xu remembered everything that had just happened.

He belatedly felt ashamed, and upon further reflection, he felt even more ashamed and wanted to die!

He was so proactive and cooperative; it's unbelievable!

"Heh..." Shen Yanlang's low chuckle came, deep and sexy, Duan Xu subconsciously swallowed.

[Is it too late to be shy now?]

Duan Xu: "..."
