Chapter 118 Always Scheming Against Me

Chapter 118: You’ve Been Scheming Against Me All Along

“Fu Zhangzhou, you haven’t been telling the truth at all.”

Fang Ran slammed the beer can in his hand onto the table with a sharp “thud.”

Whether from exertion or anger, the flush on his face grew even more pronounced.

“Hmm?”

Seeing his expression, the Sentinel’s gaze flickered a few times, and he asked with a curious look, “Not telling the truth? Why would you say that?”

“Are you angry?”

Fang Ran shot him an annoyed glare.

Still pretending!

This man was clearly up to no good, asking questions he already knew the answers to.

“If last time, you were able to help stabilize me without biting my scent gland, then why this time did you have to...”

Had to temporarily mark him...

The Sentinel smiled, his mood exceptionally good at that moment. The possessiveness he had been suppressing for so long was now greatly satisfied, and he was radiating delight from head to toe.

“Because you told me last time that for an Omega... this is a very special ritual.”

He leisurely opened the two cans of beer on the table one after another.

With a “hiss,” fine bubbles rose from the openings, carrying the aroma of fermented malt.

“I didn’t want to do this while you were not in your right mind.”

The Sentinel looked at him, not hiding the possessiveness in his eyes.

“Fang Ran, I hope you’ll remember this day forever.”

You are mine.

His expression conveyed this message to Fang Ran.

Don’t try to reason with a madman.

True hunters are extremely patient, biding their time just to wait for the perfect moment.

Fang Ran’s gaze was tightly locked by his.

Damn it.

No wonder Fu Zhangzhou had been creating opportunities for the two of them to be alone all this time. Even when Zhong Wan was around, the Sentinel would come up with excuses to stick close to him.

If... his gland had truly awakened because of Fu Zhangzhou’s spiritual power, then he would be extremely susceptible to this man’s influence. The longer they spent together, the greater the impact.

He had even been sleeping while cuddling the Sentinel’s spiritual body all this time...

No wonder his heat had come early.

Fang Ran really wanted to curse, but he found himself unable to speak.

This was the downside of being marked.

A marked Omega always craves the one who marked them.

Especially right after the mark is completed, this desire reaches its peak.

Fang Ran might have looked tough on the surface, but inwardly, he was constantly suppressing his thoughts. He wanted to be close to Fu Zhangzhou, to nestle in his arms, to receive his comfort, to...

Fang Ran’s mind was filled with many, many thoughts that seemed terrifying to him. He was even afraid he might actively cling to the Sentinel and do even more indescribable things.

He began to feel grateful that Fu Zhangzhou didn’t yet know that an Omega’s mark could be either temporary or permanent.

A permanent mark, in particular, required waiting until the heat period, when the womb opens...

But then it occurred to him that the marking between a Sentinel and a Guide seemed to follow a similar pattern.

Which meant that Fu Zhangzhou had never intended to let him go from the very beginning...

Fang Ran glanced at the person beside him again. The Sentinel was still looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

This damn bastard!

The more he thought about it, the more agitated he felt. He picked up the opened beer on the table and chugged it down.

After two bottles of beer, Fang Ran’s face grew even redder.

He had never been much of a drinker to begin with, and now, with the alcohol rushing to his head, he felt somewhat dazed. He even ended up saying what he was thinking.

“Fu Zhangzhou, you shameless bastard!” He pointed at the Sentinel and cursed, “You’ve been scheming against me all along!”
