    Extra Ko-Fi chapter~

    Seeing him make his way over, Duan Jiayan instinctively wanted to back away. 

    He did not realise that behind him was a desk. He took one step back and knocked against the desk, the resulting sound that resounded in the quiet classroom sounded especially crisp.

    This sound reminded Duan Jiayan of why he came here, Duan Jiayan suddenly said, “Wait, don’t move.”

     

     

    Lu Xingci stopped and looked at him with interest.

    “What’s your situation now?” Duan Jiayan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at him like this. His voice wary, he said, “Can you still think rationally?” 

    He did not expect that after asking this, the boy in front of him would curve his lips into a smirk.

     

    Lu Xingci did not give him an answer, only slowly making his way over to him.

    Duan Jiayan leaned against the desk. With nowhere to escape, he somehow did not want to show any vulnerability to the other and so he stood his ground and watched as he made his way over.

    The closer he got, the stronger his alpha pheromones became.

     

    An alpha in rut would not be able to control his pheromones. Regardless of whether Lu Xingci was willing, his pheromones were surrounding Duan Jiayan. It was much like a cage, cutting off any way for him to retreat.

    Duan Jiayan heard him say softly, “Take a guess as to what I want to do.”

    Before he could reply, Lu Xingci bent over, his eyes narrowing as he studied Duan Jiayan.

    His long legs stretched out and encircled Duan Jiayan in his territory, covering him with his pheromones. 

    They were impossibly close, it was as if they were about to kiss.

    “Did they not tell you… not to look for me?” Lu Xingci flicked Duan Jiayan on the forehead, his tone vague. “An alpha in rut will only know to mark their territory and steal what they want to make their own. The things I want to do to you……”

    His fingers brushed across Duan Jiayan’s glands before sliding over to his smooth nape. It was like a predator testing out his prey.

    Next, his hand completely covered that fragile patch of skin. 

    Lu Xingci leaned forward a little and whispered in Duan Jiayan’s ear, “It’s terrifying.”

    Duan Jiayan’s eyelashes fluttered.

    His throat was a little dry and he straightened his neck involuntarily.

    If Lu Xingci exerted pressure on his nape, he’ll retaliate. 

    He was feeling tense. The fingers on his glands started moving, rubbing it slightly.

    It hurt a little, but not to the point where it was unbearable.

     

    “You don’t know anything and yet you still decided to come here?” Lu Xingci kept his hand back, and spoke in a tone that could be either praising or mocking him, “Where did you get this courage from?”

    “……” Duan Jiayan exhaled a long breath. 

    Since he was young, he had never been scared of much, but the other’s bearing just now really did frighten him a little.

    Seeing that Lu Xingci was still in the mood to joke with him, Duan Jiayan relaxed a little. After calming down, he could not help frowning, “So what exactly is your situation right now?”

    Lu Xingci honestly said, “I feel horrible.”

    Duan Jiayan paused before continuing hesitantly, “Shen Chilie said that pheromones would help you a little… does it work?” 

    “You came in here because of that.” Lu Xingci turned his question into a statement, faint amusement visible in his eyes. “You even jumped over a wall.”

    Duan Jiayan saw his composed demeanour and suddenly felt like his panicked state was embarrassing. He tutted, his tone somewhat threatening, “I jumped over precisely because of that, is that a problem?”

    “No it’s not,” Lu Xingci held in his laugh. “You can do whatever you want.”

    Seeing him like this, Duan Jiayan decided to just say directly, “You helped me so many times before, me jumping over the wall to help you, what’s wrong with that?”

    Duan Jiayan froze, he had one leg propped on a chair while the other was left dangling. 

    What made him even more uncomfortable was the alpha standing between his legs, hugging him and trying to bury his head into the crook of his neck.

    This intimate posture had quite an affectionate meaning.

    “……” Duan Jiayan wanted to move back but the back of his waist was stopped by a hand. He watched as Lu Xingci cut off his escape. Duan Jiayan muttered, “Don’t go overboard. I already agreed to let you hug me, you still want to act like this?”

    His tone as he spoke was unnatural, it could be seen that he was feeling nervous. 

    With the way Lu Xingci was standing, with his legs apart, it was very easy for their bodies to touch.

    He couldn’t move his legs but couldn’t not move them as well. After letting the other hug him for a while, Duan Jiayan was feeling a little uncomfortable and could take it no longer, “Lu Xingci, have you had enough?”

     

    “Not enough.”

    “……” Duan Jiayan did not know how he could speak with so much confidence. 

    As if sensing the other’s resistance, Lu Xingci placed his chin on the other’s shoulder before burying his face into it, lightly rubbing across Duan Jiayan’s nape.

    His voice was slightly muffled, “It’s not enough, let me hug for a little while longer.”

    It was the first time Duan Jiayan saw him looking like this.

    It was somewhat unreasonable, with a little bit of childishness 

    Perhaps it was because he was in rut, that a person who was usually so cool and mature would act like this.

    It was a little strange but Duan Jiayan did not hate it.

    He thought of his heat and the many times Lu Xingci had helped him.

    He even gave the other a call early in the morning and made him come over to his down to complete his mark. 

    Thinking of this, the last bits of Duan Jiayan’s temper left him.

    Just hug, he’ll just let him hug away. This little bit of hugging won’t harm anyone anyways.

    Just like Lu Xingci said, he was repaying a favour.

    After some time had passed, there was suddenly a commotion outside the window. 

    “Son!! Daddy is here!!” Shen Chilie hollered as he made his way up the window. Just as he stood on the window sill, he saw Lu Xingci and Duan Jiayan hugging each other in a particularly promiscuous position.

    In an instant, blood rushed to Shen Chilie’s head, “What the fuck?!?!”

    The sky’s not even dark yet and Lu Xingci had already turned into a beast?

    Shen Chilie was about to jump into the classroom when the alpha who was originally quietly buried in the crook of Duan Jiayan’s neck raised his head. 

    His gaze was chilly. Perhaps because his territory got intruded on, it also looked a little dark.

    A sense of aggression rushed through him.

     

    His pheromones were both aggressive and direct. It nearly made Shen Chilie slip from the window sill.

    Seeing Shen Chilie frozen on the window sill, Duan Jiayan hurriedly pulled Lu Xingci back down, “Don’t scare him.” 

    Lu Xingci silently studied him for a while.

    The sense of aggression in his posture was not yet gone, his eyes were also dark, his intentions unknown.

    Duan Jiayan increased the pressure in his hands.

    Shen Chilie watched as the person who originally wanted to tear him apart seemed to give in and laid back down on Duan Jiayan’s shoulder. 

    Shen Chilie was in a daze.

    Duan Jiayan turned around slightly. After making sure not to jostle Lu Xingci too much, he could only raise his head a little towards Shen Chilie and said, “It’s alright, you can go first. I’ll wait for him to get a little better before I leave.”

    Shen Chilie stared at the scene in front of him for a long while.

    He listened to Duan Jiayan and jumped back down from the window sill. But after leaving, Shen Chilie could feel his forehead twitching, a myriad of emotions flashing through his heart. 

    Lu Xingci was getting through his rut by just hugging Duan Jiayan.

    It was just a hug.

    If an omega he liked appeared in front of him during his rut, would he be able to control his instinct to possess the other?

    Shen Chilie was very sure that he would not be able to do it. 

    But Lu Xingci did it.

    Because he liked the other too much.

    He liked Duan Jiayan so much that he could not bear to hurt him.

    It was precisely because of this that Duan Jiayan, who often looked bad-tempered but is actually a soft-hearted person with no evil intentions against others… He’d be cleanly eaten by the other’s love sooner or later. 

    Shen Chilie, [I feel like my son would not be able to last for long.]

    Song Yi. [????]

     

    Shen Chilie, [Humans should honestly believe in science more sometimes. A compatibility of 99% is not an unreasonable one.]

    Song Yi, [……Weren’t you against this relationship initially?] 

    Shen Chilie, [I suddenly feel like the school hottie is not bad.]

    Shen Chilie, [A gentleman that doesn’t give in to his desires…… This laozi really admits defeat.]

    Lu Xingci phone rang while the two were still hugging each other.

    Duan Jiayan watched as the boy hugged him with one hand and answered his phone with the other. He spoke a few sentences on the phone before letting him go. 

    Sensing Duan Jiayan’s gaze on him, Lu Xingci hesitated before explaining, “I’ll be leaving first.”

    “Are you able to make your way down?”

    “You want to send me down?” Seeing Duan Jiayan nod his head, looking like he wanted to do his good deed to the end, Lu Xingci teased, “There’s such a good service?”

    Before Duan Jiayan could reply, Lu Xingci gently patted his head, “I can go down by myself. There’s no need to trouble yourself.” 

    Duan Jiayan studied him for a while.

    It was unlike what Shen Chilie said. Lu Xingci’s actions all looked very normal, Duan Jiayan even thought that Shen Chilie’s words earlier were indeed just exaggerations.

    Seeing him looking pretty okay, Duan Jiayan did not press the issue and just nodded.

    As he waited for Lu Xingci to open the classroom’s door, he suddenly remembered, “Have you applied for a few days’ leave of absence?” 

    Lu Xingci walked to the door and gave an ‘en’ in response.

    Duan Jiayan opened his mouth, wanting to tell the other to rest well, before realising it might sound a little too intimate.

    He frowned before finally spitting out the two words, “Bye bye.”

    Lu Xingci bid him goodbye. 

    Jiang Yao had the car driven to the moral education building. After making his way down, Lu Xingci saw her.

    After getting in the car, Jiang Yao hurriedly closed the window and carefully studied his situation.

     

    “How is it?” She asked in concern, “Are you able to control yourself?”

    Lu Xingci’s rut was a big problem that often troubled Jiang Yao. As he’s usually able to control his instincts very well normally, the moment his rut arrives, the aggression innate in every alpha seems to become even stronger than ever. 

    During his rut in his first year, Lu Xingci just so happened to be hanging out with Chen Yue and for some unknown reason, ended up in a fight in a bar.

    After she arrived, she heard that the fight started because some youths near them had said some unsavoury words. If it were any other time, Lu Xingci would not have directly raised his fist. However, when she saw him that day, his eyes were full of hostility, his expression cold, and his fists were still stained with the blood of others.

    It was both cold and violent.

    During his rut, his instincts that were usually supressed was just like a beast that had its chains loosened, tearing apart its cage without restraint. 

    Even if it was her, she would still feel worried seeing Lu Xingci like this.

    The concern in Jiang Yao’s eyes was clear to see. Lu Xingci let her look him over for a while to reassure her that nothing bad happened before saying, “I’m fine.”

    Jiang Yao froze, “You……”

    It was different from his previous rut. This time, Lu Xingci looked calm, with a visible sense of peace. 

    It was like a satisfied beast, lazily taking a nap under the sun.

    Before he could answer, Jiang Yao smelled the pheromones on his body.

    The pheromones were very faint, just like a cool brush of snow gently falling on Lu Xingci.

    The scent of freesias. 

    She quickly understood what had happened and knew her son was comforted by an omega. Besides finding it unbelievable, she was once again curious as to who this mysterious omega was.

    “It was that classmate of yours,” Jiang Yao spoke with certainty. “He helped you?”

    Lu Xingci confirmed her suspicions.

    “Then you should properly thank him for helping you this much,” after confirming that he was okay, Jiang Yao’s brows relaxed and her words even took on a teasing tone, “Such a strong scent, what did you do to them?” 

    “We just hugged a little,” Lu Xingci closed his eyes as he spoke, leaning against the car’s seat.

    To an alpha in rut, the world was more or less a dark one.

     

    Just then, someone he thought would never appear jumped into the classroom through the window and brought light into his life.

    They had only just parted ways but he was already yearning for Duan Jiayan again. 

    He wanted to drown in Duan Jiayan’s pheromones, and wanted to cover the other in his scent, leaving behind a mark that can’t be erased.

    As the car was moving, Lu Xingci said to Jiang Yao, “Mom, you previously said that you wanted to raise some freesias at home?”

    Jiang Yao understood what he meant to say and replied jokingly, “You want to raise one too?”

    “I want to,” His eyes grew hooded as he spoke. “But I’m not sure if he’ll let me.”
