The alpha watched the Little Young Master’s seemingly indifferent demeanor, and a surge of anger welled up within him, though he couldn’t pinpoint its source.
It felt like a fire was burning in the alpha’s chest, growing more intense, but he couldn’t find a way to release it.
What did he mean by “just playing around”?
Wait, the real issue was that the scummy alpha was just “playing around”?
And now he’s gone?
The alpha’s fists clenched.
Was the Little Young Master sad? Was he in pain? Was he suffering?
Scummy alpha, the alpha cursed inwardly.
Silently, the man followed the Little Young Master, watching until he safely reached home. Only then did he open his own door with a loud “clunk,” slamming it shut behind him.
Just then, his phone chimed. Leaning against the door, the alpha pulled out his phone.
The message was from an unexpected source, and the man’s fingers slid across the screen to open the chat.
**[Hotel Manager Wang]:**
“Mr. Zhou, we regret to inform you that despite the best efforts of our technicians, the surveillance footage from the third floor on the night of August 10th remains unrecoverable. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and will offer compensation…”
The alpha frowned as he read the message. He had approached the hotel manager right away, intending to check the footage, only to find out that the surveillance equipment had malfunctioned. He had been following up since then, but the hotel never gave a clear response.
Just as he was about to turn off his phone, a notification popped up.
**[News Headline]:**
“Shocking! The Dangers of Being 13 Weeks Pregnant!”
Thirteen weeks? That’s about three months.
Isn’t that exactly…
The alpha immediately clicked on the article.
On the other side, the Little Young Master, listening to the sound of the alpha slamming his door, realized that his hands and feet were a bit stiff. The baby was already four months along. After the discomfort passed, the Little Young Master began to think about his next steps.
He had told the alpha it was three months, deliberately throwing off the actual timeline.
A message from a friend arrived just in time. The friend said, “It’s done.”
A while back, when he learned that the alpha was looking for someone everywhere, the Little Young Master had no choice but to take drastic measures. Fortunately, the hotel from that night was owned by his friend, so deleting the surveillance footage was no big deal. The Little Young Master read the message and slowly exhaled in relief.
There was no way he could tell the alpha the truth.
They had been at odds since school, fighting each other for years. Even if the alpha didn’t hate him, he surely didn’t have any good feelings toward him.
Besides, he couldn’t bring himself to say it.
The Little Young Master didn’t expect to see the alpha again the next night at ten o’clock.
This time, the alpha wasn’t there to borrow something. He had a screw in one hand and a wooden board in the other.
The Little Young Master: ???
The alpha lowered his eyes, stating a sad fact, “My bed collapsed.”
The Little Young Master: ??????
What on earth is going on?
“I noticed the bed was a bit wobbly today, so I tried to fix it myself, but this happened.” The alpha held up the broken piece of wood to show he wasn’t lying.
The alpha continued, “The temperature outside is dropping, and my place isn’t fully furnished yet—no guest room, either.”
“But the landlady said you have a guest room here, or at least a sofa. Could I crash here for the night—”
The Little Young Master coldly rejected him and slammed the door with a loud bang, “No.”
Outside, there was the sound of hesitant footsteps, followed by the sound of a door opening and closing again.
What is the alpha up to now?
The Little Young Master sat on the sofa. He had rented this place for the peace and quiet, so there weren’t many entertainment options, and there weren’t any hotels nearby. A gust of wind lifted the curtains, and the Little Young Master, dressed in fuzzy pajamas, shivered from the cold.
Before he knew it, his feet had carried him to the door. Peeking through the peephole, he saw that the alpha hadn’t left. The alpha was squatting outside his door, shivering as another cold wind blew down the hallway.
Is this guy an idiot?
The door creaked open, and the Little Young Master’s expression was one of annoyance.
“Why are you squatting out here? Who’s going to feel sorry for you?” The Little Young Master grumbled as he opened the door.
This guy is so irritating.
“Get in here!” the Little Young Master said.
The alpha quickly entered, carrying a stack of information he had gathered the night before on how to care for an Omega.
