When I Come Back, I'll Marry Him

Yin Zhengchuan gazed into those beautiful, slightly hazy eyes and asked, "Are you sure... you want pheromones?"

Wei Zisu gave a slight nod.

Suppressing the wild joy in his heart, Yin Zhengchuan braced his hands on either side of Wei Zisu and released his pheromones.

Mint-scented pheromones gradually drifted out, intertwining with the orange scent.

As Wei Zisu breathed in that refreshing scent, he felt a cool sensation in his chest. It was very comfortable.

But there was no marking between them, so the pheromones could only have a temporary effect. He couldn't keep pestering Yin Zhengchuan for pheromones over the next few days.

The only solution was...

Wei Zisu asked hesitantly, "Zhengchuan, could I trouble you for a favor?"

Yin Zhengchuan answered at once, "What is it? Tell me."

Wei Zisu said, "Could you give me a temporary marking?"

Buzz!

Yin Zhengchuan felt as though something had exploded inside his head!

He could hardly believe his ears.

Wei Zisu, his wife, was asking him for a marking!

"O-o-of... of course!" he stammered, his heart pounding wildly.

Hearing this, Wei Zisu turned onto his side, exposing the back of his neck, and said politely, "Thank you. I'm really sorry for all the trouble tonight."

Looking at the back of his neck, Yin Zhengchuan felt his mouth go dry. Every cell in his body seemed to stir restlessly, his possessiveness as an alpha reaching its peak at that moment.

"It's no trouble."

Yin Zhengchuan could even hear his own heartbeat. It was loud. His heart didn't beat this fast even after a five-kilometer run.

A temporary marking was fine too. He wasn't greedy. Zisu taking the initiative to ask him for a marking today was already an unexpected joy.

With an alpha's marking, an omega would become very dependent on that alpha's pheromones until the marking faded. Over these next few days, as long as he had the alpha's pheromones to soothe him, he would get through it smoothly.

Yin Zhengchuan was very gentle, afraid of hurting the person he cherished and held so dear.

Wei Zisu's body temperature returned to normal, and exhaustion followed. After thanking him again, he fell into a deep sleep.

His body was no longer hot, but Yin Zhengchuan's was burning.

He rushed into the bathroom and blasted himself with cold water, unable to understand why Wei Zisu considered asking him for a temporary marking to be troubling him.

They were married. Forget a temporary marking-even giving him a permanent one was something he ought to do.

More than that, if Wei Zisu wanted his life one day, he probably wouldn't refuse.

After the cold shower, the heat in his body finally subsided. Bare-chested, Yin Zhengchuan sat in the little pavilion in the courtyard, rubbing some metal object in his hand as he gazed at the stars filling the sky. His mind seemed to drift back several years.

"Dad, see that Mermaid on TV? When I come back from the army, I'll marry him!"

Yin Zhengchuan had only been nineteen then. He and his younger sister had exactly the same taste: both had fallen in love at first sight with the Mermaid in the commercial.

But his sister was good with her hands and could make all kinds of Wei Zisu merchandise. He couldn't, so he could only steal the finished items she made.

That Golden Badge was the prettiest. Before leaving for the army, he had secretly taken it with him.

The badge had hardly ever left his person. He kept it close to his body every day, but he had never expected it to save his life at a critical moment.

Two years later, he returned.

Yet the news that Wei Zisu and Sun Liang were already engaged had also just come out.

He was upset for a long time.

Then one day, he found out where Wei Zisu was filming and worked up the courage to go there, visiting the set as a fan.

The actors in that production all had so many fans that no one cared whose fan he was, so he followed a crowd and waited outside the set.

The actors came out one after another.

Whenever an actor came out, their fans would scream and swarm around them, giving gifts and asking for autographs. Once the actor left, the fans dispersed too.

He waited a long time, and the crowd outside grew smaller and smaller.

In the end, only a handful of people remained.

Wei Zisu finally came out. It was Yin Zhengchuan's first time seeing him in person from so close, yet he didn't dare approach.

One or two people asked Wei Zisu for autographs, and he obligingly agreed to them all, even taking photos with them. He was especially patient.

Yin Zhengchuan watched his smile, then thought of how he was engaged to someone else, and felt painfully choked up.

As Wei Zisu got into his car, one foot already inside, he suddenly stopped. He turned back and said to the few people remaining, "Thank you for coming all this way to see me. Let me treat you to something to drink."

He personally went to the nearby drink shop, bought some drinks, and handed them out.

When it was Yin Zhengchuan's turn, Wei Zisu handed him a cup of muddled fresh orange juice. Wearing a baseball cap and a mask, Yin Zhengchuan took it in a daze, his eyes fixed on him.

Wei Zisu smiled at him and said casually, "Head home soon. Stay safe."

Head home soon. Stay safe.

His dad had said those words to his father more times than he could count.

He had once wondered whether, if he married Wei Zisu, Wei Zisu would also smile and say those words to him whenever he went out, giving him someone to hold in his heart no matter where he was.

But that thought had been nothing more than a daydream.

Yet life was unpredictable. Even in his daydreams, he had never dared dream that he would still have a chance to marry Wei Zisu.

Returning to the bedroom, he saw that Wei Zisu seemed to be sleeping uneasily on the bed, his brow slightly furrowed. He didn't know whether Wei Zisu was still feeling unwell.

Yin Zhengchuan spread the quilt out in front of the footstool again, planning to stay there and watch over Wei Zisu.

Unable to sleep, he took out his phone, opened Tieba, and made another post.

"It's our wedding night, and my wife is in heat. What do I do?"

The internet was bustling at this hour, and people soon replied, but the commenters' tongues were like poison, showing no mercy at all.

"Wait, dude, don't you have a dick?"

"Hahahahaha, maybe they're an omega-omega couple!"

"I'm dying. His wife goes into heat on their wedding night, and he actually has time to post here asking what to do."

"I get what this guy means. Listen to me, take XX pills and you'll last longer. You're welcome."

What the hell was all this?

Yin Zhengchuan tossed his phone aside. He swore he would never ask questions on that idiotic Tieba again.

If he did, he was a fucking idiot.
