Arc 7: Chapter 22
The crowd took a collective cold breath. Wait, wait, what did the marshal just say? Lin Yuan is his lover? But isn’t the marshal’s wife someone else… Shocking! Breaking news! This might be the biggest scandal of the year!
The expression on Lin Qian’s face changed from bewilderment, to coldness, to fury. He squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: “Marshal, correct me if I’m wrong, but you’re already married! It’s impossible for you to be romantically involved with my little brother!”
Wei Feng said calmly: “I already submitted an application of divorce to the Imperial Court.”
Everyone’s eyes widened. Cheating was not uncommon among noble partners, but it was rare for the Alpha to take initiative to divorce. Moreover, Wei Feng was leaving his 3S Omega wife for Lin Yuan whose spiritual power was now out of control. No one was even sure if he could survive. Sigh, there was a saying from the ancient earth: the main wife is not as loved as the concubine, and the concubine is not as loved as the secret lover.
This statement from Wei Feng expressed his sincerity to Lin Yuan, but to Lin Qian, saying this in front of everyone sealed Lin Yuan’s involvement.
He as the older brother didn’t even know how this relationship happened between them, much less any of these people. To the others, the truth was as simple as Lin Yuan intruding on Wei Feng’s marriage, being his mistress…
Lin Qian couldn’t endure his anger and threw a punch at Wei Feng.
Wei Feng didn’t intend to dodge and his head skewed to the side. The corner of his lip began to bleed.
Lin Qian’s eyes were mad with blood and he gripped Wei Feng’s collar forcibly. He was exerting so much force that his knuckles turned white.
The huge white rabbit whined anxiously and its purple eyes filled with tears, as if it was about to cry.
Hearing the sound, Lin Qian glanced at the white rabbit. When he thought of Lin Yuan, whose situation was unknown inside the exhibition, he could only suppress his burning anger.
He let go of the man’s collar and said lowly: “A’yuan is still in danger, I’ll settle accounts with you later. The doctor said that A’yuan needs a temporary mark from a 3S Alpha.”
Wei Feng whispered his thanks and immediately turned and entered the exhibition with long strides. The white rabbit followed him closely, docile and friendly, nowhere like a fierce beast who wanted to hit the imperial emperor.
Inside the exhibition, Lin Yuan’s rampant spiritual power also attacked Wei Feng like a storm, but he had long been used to this feeling.
Ice cedar pheromones winded through the air. When Lin Yuan smelled this fragrance, he seemed to see acres of snow spread underneath him. At first, the snow felt cold and harsh, but then the fragrance became comforting, turning the snow field into a cedar forest under the warm winter sun, and soft, shimmering snowflakes danced with the leaves.
Lin Yuan liked this smell.
When Wei Feng saw Lin Yuan lying on the ground, his heart squeezed with heartache. He carefully collected Lin Yuan in his arms, and his long fingers tremblingly caressed Lin Yuan’s bloodless face.
The youth’s sweat was cold and sticky, but thankfully his skin still held a bit of warmth. Wei Feng’s fingers fumbled with Lin Yuan’s neckband and unlocked it.
He leaned over Lin Yuan’s shoulder and looked at the slender neck. Wei Feng widened his jaw, but didn’t bite down. At this moment, he felt a harrowing sense of dread and helplessness. The fear that his damaged glands wouldn’t be able to give enough pheromones to appease his Omega, then he would be forced to witness another Alpha mark Lin Yuan.
However, there was no time to delay. Wei Feng tightened his arms around Lin Yuan and leaned down. He gently kissed the other’s throbbing glands, as if brushing against a delicate rose petal.
The instant his teeth pierced the skin, Wei Feng was drowned by the Omega’s scent of snow roses. The pheromones were thick with hostility, and the thorns of the snow roses were on full display.
This temporary mark took a very long time. After the first few minutes, Wei Feng thought with despair that his pheromones were ineffective, but then the snow roses slowly retracted their thorns and bloomed with love and joy.
Wei Feng had an inexplainable feeling that their pheromones had completely integrated with each other, like two incomplete halves had finally found one another. With this, Lin Yuan’s spiritual power finally became gentle and quiet.
Outside of the exhibition, the quietness of the violent spiritual power was obvious. Lin Qian’s mood was quite complex. He was very happy that his baby brother was okay, but he was also angry that his baby brother’s Alpha was actually Wei Feng!
Although Lin Qian had guessed that Lin Yuan’s boyfriend was part of a noble family after the StarNet incident, he always thought the Alpha was a young, unmarried aristocratic youth. Who would’ve thought he was neither unmarried nor young at all! He was actually a middle aged man that was seven years older!
This was too difficult for Lin Qian to accept. His treasured, baby brother who had just come of age was bitten by a married… disfigured… old Alpha…
Lin Qian roared in his heart. He really wanted to ask where Wei Feng, that crazed old dog, got the confidence to chase his family’s beautiful, sweet little rabbit.
It never crossed his mind that Lin Yuan would take the initiative.
It must’ve been Wei Feng’s doing! How could his family’s simple, innocent, beautiful, little O reject a mature old man who was rich and powerful with the imperial marshal’s aura?!
The doctors put on their pheromone mask blockers and said to Lin Qian: “Vice Minister Lin, your brother’s spiritual power has calmed down, we will try going inside now.”
Lin Qian pushed aside his messy thoughts and said: “I’ll go with you.”
But just as they walked to the door of the exhibition, the spiritual power was like a beast disturbed from its sleep, and began to attack unscrupulously again.
Lin Qian: ….
What is this? The little rabbit he raised didn’t even recognize his big brother anymore!
Wei Feng noticed the youth’s spiritual power turned aggressive again, and guessed that the people outside had tried to come in which stimulated Lin Yuan.
He took off his overcoat and wrapped it around the youth, buttoning each button one by one. Wei Feng picked Lin Yuan up in his arms and pressed gentle kisses onto the other’s temple.
“Baby, it’s okay. You’re safe now, you can rest.”
“Sui Sui, I filed a divorce application. In the future, I will hold your hand in front of the whole empire…”
Lin Yuan’s violent spiritual power calmed down in Wei Feng’s embrace. And the man’s kisses and soothing made his quantum beast disappear.
After Wei Feng walked out carrying Lin Yuan, he ignored the many eyes that were staring at them and said to Lin Qian in a quiet voice: “He’s fine.”
Lin Qian let out a sigh of relief. He reached out to hold his little brother, but the moment he touched Lin Yuan, the youth was like an insecure baby and subconsciously hugged Wei Feng’s neck and wriggled deeper into his arms.
Wei Feng didn’t expect Lin Yuan to choose him over Lin Qian and his blue eyes filled with gentleness and affection, like a calm and clear sea.
Lin Qian’s eyes twitched and his blood pressure surged like a wave.
【Di! Congrats host, the villain’s blackening value has decreased to 39%.】
“Vice Minister Lin, let me carry him. I just gave him a temporary mark, he’s probably affected by pheromones and can’t… leave me.”
Wei Feng’s words appeased Lin Qian a little. Lin Yuan’s resistance to him was only because of pheromones, not because of feelings. His face became a little better and he hmph-ed expressionlessly: “I’m only allowing this in consideration of A’yuan’s health. But if you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation, I won’t let you approach my little brother again!”
Althoug Wei Feng didn’t show any displeasure, he unconsciously hugged Lin Yuan even tighter.
When the doctors hurried them to the hospital for an examination, Wei Feng nodded. Suddenly, he looked to the side and seemed to just see the imperial emperor. He tilted his head and asked loudly: “What an honor to see Your Majesty. I guess Vice Minister Lin asked for your help, but does your Omega know you’re here?”
The crowd took a collective cold breath again, as if sucking away all of the oxygen around.
Shocking! Even more shocking! What is the date today, why are so many things happening?
To everyone’s knowledge, the emperor didn’t have an Omega, but the marshal said he did, who was he? Say it quickly, don't go!
Lin Qian was also very curious, but he sensed that this matter was sensitive. He waited until after getting on the hovercraft before shuffling over to the man who was tidying Lin Yuan’s hair and whispered: “What do you know about His Majesty? Who’s his Omega?”
Wei Feng’s fingers slid through the youth’s golden hair and said with coldness: “Bai Cen.”
Lin Qian thought he heard wrong: “Who?”
Wei Feng calmly repeated: “Bai Cen.”
Lin Qian was speechless. He slapped his forehead and exclaimed: “So you and your wife both cheated on each other! No, there’s no way my baby brother would be a third party, what happened between you two?”
Wei Feng let out a rare smile: “He liked me first and approached me. I couldn’t resist him, and that’s it.”
Lin Qian: “…???”
