SABL Chapter 80

Shi Yi did not get up on time the next day.

He didn’t go to bed until three o’clock in the morning. Lu Yunye was like a tireless big dog, and he was still stickily kissing him when he fell asleep.

One became three, three changed into five, and each time lasted a long time. Who knows what that dog alpha ate growing up.

When Shi Yi woke up, his body felt like it was about to fall apart. Even his eyes were swollen and narrowed into thin slits. His previous shrewdness and calmness were buried at the moment.

As if punishing him for casually sneaking out to dance with other alphas, Lu Yunye made sure his entire body smelled like cedar. It made Shi Yi finally realize that even if a certain someone looks indifferent on the surface, he doesn’t lack possessiveness or a desire for control.

The bedroom was dimly lit, making it hard for him to tell the time. This feeling of sleeping soundly after being extremely exhausted made him feel refreshed. Putting aside emotional matters, Shi Yi suddenly felt that it would be good to have a long-term relationship with Lu Yunye.

It’s just that this frequency must be strictly controlled.

Just as his thoughts were going crazy, the bedroom door opened. Lu Yunye walked in to see Shi Yi staring at him with gritted teeth.

But because of his exhaustion, his eyes seemed limp.

“Baby, how do you feel?”

Shi Yi didn’t want to talk to him, so he turned over slowly, pulling the overused part of his back slightly. Soreness spread up his spine, and he couldn’t help hissing softly.

“Don’t move,” Lu Yunye quickly walked over, covered the back of omega’s waist with his palms, and massaged gently.

Shi Yi’s vigilance did not let up because of the gentle gesture. Instead, the tiny bit of guilt he felt last night was tossed away completely as he cursed Lu Yunye countless times in his heart. He really shouldn’t have felt sorry for this dog alpha!

He said hoarsely, “What time is it?”

“Three o’clock in the afternoon,” Lu Yunye said apologetically. “You slept for a long time.”

Shi Yi sighed. He originally wanted to make final changes for the submission of “Beauty” this weekend, but now it seems like it’s not possible, let alone whether he’ll be able to stand for two hours and walk through Feiyi’s proposal.

Seeing Shi Yi so silent, Lu Yunye felt uneasy.

He knew that he was a bit fierce last night. When he saw Shi Yi being accosted by other alphas, and saying that he was single, Lu Yunye couldn’t help wanting to take him as his own. He wanted to make him cry and beg for mercy on the bed.

Lu Yunye, whose control is ordinarily comparable to a machine, will lose control if he is not careful in front of Shi Yi.

“Wife, are you angry?” He asked pitifully, knowing that Shi Yi had no defense against such a tone.

Unexpectedly, Shi Yi was still indifferent: “Who’s your wife?”

However, Lu Yunye keenly grasped his key words: “You only refuted ‘wife’, but you didn’t refute me or get angry, which means you actually enjoyed it, right?”

Shi Yi: “…”

Can he have some face[mfn]couldn’t find a good English word for this – basically, can LYY have some manners / conscientious / humility, and be less upfront/narcissistic/dog-like[/mfn]?

However, Lu Yunye wasn’t done yet. “I know that I went too far yesterday. I know that you prefer the mouth, but I ended up making you cry from my calloused hands, and even restrained your hands to prevent you from removing those ear cuffs. But I really like seeing it in that place… it’s cute.”

Shi Yi turned around, not caring about the discomfort in his back, and reached out to cover his mouth.

But Lu Yunye grabbed his wrist and pulled him into his arms, and kissed him lightly on the forehead. “Okay, I won’t say anymore.”

Seeing the other party’s face suddenly flushed, Lu Yunye secretly regretted acting so gentlemanly in the first place. If he was shameless earlier, he might have already chased his wife.

“The bidding begins on Monday. Be good, I won’t annoy you anymore, okay?” He hugged Shi Yi into his arms, pressing soft kisses on the omega’s messy hair. In the end, he finally couldn’t help bowing his head and pressing a kiss on the back of the neck.

He wished he could immediately put a mark there, forcing those covetous eyes to back off. But he couldn’t – his omega is very timid, and it would only scare him.

Over the remainder of the weekend, Lu Yunye was really quiet, and he didn’t ask too much except for a few kisses.

Without the shackles of the marriage contract, Lu Yunye seemed to let his personality go even more. Like a child who doesn’t know how to be satisfied, he came up with all kinds of tricks.

 

———

 

On Sunday night, Shi Yi was putting the final touches on his speech. They have been preparing over the last two months, and it was an opportunity he had won with great difficulty. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t nervous.

Sitting in Lu Yunye’s study, Shi Yi leaned on the soft back of the chair, silently reciting the speech he had already memorized by heart.

However, the more he tried his best, the more likely he was to make mistakes. In addition, he must be prepared for Lu Jingyan’s interference. After one mistake after another in his recitation, Shi Yi felt irritated.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Lu Yunye poked his head in. “Little landlord[mfn]Recall LYY gave the villa to SY[/mfn], how are your preparations going?”

“Go away.” Shi Yi felt annoyed.

However, Lu Yunye acted as if he hadn’t heard it. He walked in and put the newly made snacks on the table. “Today is brownies, do you want to try some?”

Seeing the sweets on the table, Shi Yi’s face brightened. “Okay.”

Lu Yunye had no intention of walking away. He sat cross-legged on the carpet beside Shi Yi, resting his head on the omega’s thigh, like a big obedient dog.

But only Shi Yi knew that Lu Yunye was still a fierce dog at heart, and this quiet appearance was just a disguise.

Sure enough, after a while the alpha’s head began to arch back and forth, and the sound of a zipper being pulled sounded.

Shi Yi gasped: “Lu Yunye!”

He held the draft speech in one hand, and pen in the other. Before he had time to push back, the deadly part was already sucked in.

“I’ve long wanted to do this in President Shi’s office.” Lu Yunye’s voice was muffled and mixed with a vague smile.

“Rogue!” Shi Yi exclaimed, but his still sore waist was trapped on the seat by a pair of big hands. He leaned back in desperation, but it only sent himself forward more.

After reaching the top, his tense nerves finally relaxed. Lu Yunye half stood up and kissed him, pressed him on the back of the chair and sucked his lips deeply.

“Don’t be too anxious,” Lu Yunye took away the page from his hand. “You’ll be fine.”

Shi Yi only had the strength left to lift his toes and kick him lightly. However, the dog alpha took advantage of the opportunity to grab his ankle, and then took out the cotton socks he had prepared a long time ago from his pocket, and put them on carefully.

“It’s already winter, be careful of catching a cold.”

Because of Lu Yunye’s “interruption”, Shi Yi gave up the idea of practicing again, and went to bed early.

The bidding meeting was on the top floor of Yunye Media, in the banquet hall, which was decorated to look like a conference room. Except for the judges, only a few shareholders and executives were eligible to participate.

The next day, Shi Yi arrived in an off-white suit, looking as tall and straight as a pine tree after the rain. He chose to wear a pair of flat glasses with gold wire rims and glasses chains. The corners of his eyes were suppressed by the lenses, which added a bit of academic atmosphere to his style.

Watching his back disappear in the elevator room, the security guard downstairs picked up the walkie on his waist and dialed: “President Lu, Shi Yi has arrived.”

“Okay.” Lu Jingyan played with a bottle containing a transparent liquid in his hand, and waved to Meng Wen beside him. “Do you remember what I told you?”

“Look for a chance to meet Shi Yi and spray it on him.” Meng Wen lowered his eyebrows submissively. Dark red scars were faintly exposed under the v-neck, and he no longer had the arrogant look he had when he was a small internet celebrity.

“This is the omega estrus-inducing agent that I entrusted someone to bring back from abroad. It is colorless and odorless, and works through skin contact. Do you understand?”

“Shi Yi has incomplete glands,” Meng Wen subconsciously bit his lips. “Is there really no problem?”

“If something goes wrong, they won’t find you.” Lu Jingyan’s eyes became sharper. “Or, do you not want to listen?”

Hearing this, Meng Wen subconsciously shuddered. The mark he was once proud of had turned into a nightmare. He didn’t want to go through the situation of being suppressed by a high-level alpha again.

He even began using inhibitors in order to minimize the effects of the mark during estrus.

“Understood.” He took the vial and held it tightly in his palm. “I will find a chance to get close to Shi Yi.”

Lu Jingyan nodded in satisfaction, and the expression on his face twisted.He has no right to revoke Shi Yi’s bid, but he can make his speech unforgettable.

He wanted the omega who dared challenge him to experience what it was like to be in heat in public, and lose all face in front of those respected judges. He heard that Lu Yunye rescued Shi Yi from Feng Muqing on the top floor of this building earlier, so it is here that he will mark this omega..

Shi Yi went upstairs without realizing anything wrong. Because of the proposal, the elevators on the upper floors of Yunye Building were only open to VIPs, and the bustling floors were empty.

The elevator door opened, and the person who greeted the guests was Meng Wen. His impression of this omega wasn’t too good, so he just nodded slightly, ready to pass by.

“Mr. Shi,” Meng Wen called out to stop him. “Today’s bid is important, please disinfect with hand sanitizer first.”

Shi Yi didn’t doubt anything, and reached out to spray the liquid offered by the other party onto his palm. After wiping carefully, he asked: “Is it all right?”

For once, Meng Wen didn’t criticize him, but nodded and led him into the conference room.

Even though Shi Yi is a new-generation designer, he has met some of the judges before, and they exchanged nods as he walked in.

Shi Yi responded in kind. After he sat down, he realized that the other bidders were listed companies of considerable size. He was not only the youngest among them, but also the only omega.

This is normal though. After all, alphas are better with rhetoric, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many alpha debaters and diplomatic geniuses.

The screen of his mobile phone flickered. It was a message from Lu Yunye reminding him that he was waiting in the parking lot of the office after the bidding finished.

Shi Yi turned the phone off, breathed steadily, and gradually calmed his mind.

The works of other participants are also amazing, but he is still full of confidence in his designs. Not only was this project entrusted to him by Lu Yunye, he is also responsible for Feiyi’s success.

However, as time passed, Shi Yi keenly noticed something was wrong.

His body began to heat up for no reason, his nose felt stuffy, and even breathing was difficult. The headache that he hadn’t had for a long time also suddenly hit. It was like he suddenly developed a high fever, which threw him off kilter.

Amid the occasional tinnitus, Shi Yi heard the MC pronounce his name: “Our last presenter is from Feiyi Design, Shi Yi.”
