Chapter Text

Sheng Shaoyou's life was like durian. Supposedly the king of fruits yet is like microwaved shit with a smell of rotting skin and dead. As a S-class alpha, the heir of Sheng biotech,he had everything looks, prestige, honour, money, fame. Everything is in his pale delicate hands that sometimes weighs too heavy.

His life was 'perfect', but was it? Power comes with a price. Those who can pay them wins and thrives and those who can't looses and rots in the deepest darkness. If hell is a real thing than it would be flooded with the privileged because they gets cursed more than the poor, wether they are innocent or not. Being privileged makes your problems 'inferior' after all.

Shaoyou was a prime example, rich yet even spending a cent of his company's feels undeserving after all that very money that stole his mother's life away. His father's greed for money was a major reason his mother broke down like a castle made out of cards. Oh wait it was made out of cards that were already soggy with his mother's tears.

Fame, that chokes the daylight out of him. Every camera flash irks him, hurts him, his past torments resurfacing like a old scar that looks healed but would throb in agony everytime the weather changes.

Looks... He would rather not just talk about it. He can't remember when was the last time he took a good look at himself in the mirror without wanting to either break the fragile glass or wanting break his own self.

Every breath he takes reminds him he is still alive which makes him want to claw his skin out but it also serves as a reminder each breath he takes , a millisecond passes and the closer he gets to his end... Might be a day later or might be a year later. Though with the rage and envy against him might get him assassinated soon.

And it did, at the age of 28 he died. The main target was his fingerprint for an approval that will bring the shareholders into advantages and his step-siblings in power. He died rather than doing that, jumping down the bridge to his death in the water. The water was nice, cold and awakening.

Shaoyou's mother always told him something oh well... Named him something zai zai which basically means disaster boy. And he was sort of that.

So when after his 'death' he woke up again in his 24 year old body he wasn't surprised to say atleast with a bright screen infront of him saying.

SYSTEM TARGET: HAPPILY DIE?

SHAOYOU SHENG, Dear host, this is system lausilusi, you are requested to die happily (NOTHING suicide or suicidal)in upcoming next three years.

I, Sheng Shaoyou,

AGREE/DISAGREE

Shaoyou almost furiously pressed on disagree button. Heck! He died already! Why bring him down here again?! And what the fuck does that even mean? If he was getting rewinded into the fucking past then why the fuck does he have to die?! And what the hell is happily die?

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

WARNINGWARNINGWARNINGWARNINGWARNING

REQUEST ACCEPTED, ALL THE BEST HOST

Shaoyou almost slammed down his fist on the blue screen only for it to disappear. WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?!

Shaoyou got up, hell no! Since he died he fucking died he don't want to do anything with present or shit. He died happy, he was happy He died. He walked to the bathroom, slammed the drawer open and chugged down a bottle of sleeping pill gulping it down.

He sighed and walked back to his bed and laid down with tight jaw. It's either a fucking nightmare or either he's gone insane. So dying is a good option in both alternate.

He didn't even realise when his eyes closed.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

WARNINGWARNINGWARNINGWARNINGWARNING

Host has not met the requirements, host has not met the requirements, rewinding, rewinding.

He gasped as he woke up again. He immediately woke up and saw it was the same day. He pinched his forehead. So everytime he will try to suicide he'll basically get rewinded everytime. What the actual fuck?

Slowly Shaoyou got an hang of what's technically happening. He realised what 'happily' meant.

At first He was freaking confused. Like what the fuck is he supposed to do?

Then he slowly understood that he basically has to die with no purpose of actually dying.

Shaoyou has to die when he actually wanted to live. So he has to be normal and not be a overly dramatic suicidal bitch. He doesn't even know what happens if he doesn't die before three year! Maybe get stuck in a loophole?

He sighed and got up freshened himself as he has office. He sighed and walked into the car with a blank look. Not even bothering to greet Chen Pinming. Chen Pinming noticing his boss's annoyed expression said no more and drove to Sheng corporation.

….This is so annoying, he doesn't want to deal with this fuckery. Why does he always have to struggle? What is he? An science experiment? A scapegoat? If it was one of those apocalypse novel like ORV or solo levelling or lout of the count's family he would have thought those gods have fucked with him but what the fuck is this. He isn't them. This is the real world. Something like this shouldn't exist. And even if it does, Shaoyou don't want this.

But…Shaoyou knows deep down thought, that's true he does not have any idea on what's happening or why it's happening. He might die in three years, maybe he should enjoy it? Maybe he should enjoy these three years.

Shaoyou typed on his phone, 'how to be happy?'. He glared at the phone as if it held the world secret.

HOW TO BE HAPPY?

firstly it's natural to feel sad and we are ve--

Shaoyou slid passed the melodrama and looked at the points.

1. Change yourself, explore yourself and see what makes you feel you.

What kind of crappy melodrama is that? Makes you feel you? God what a struggle he got himself into. But on second thought the idea wasn't that worst. Annoying people might help him.

Yes, he's scarred, yes he's fucked, yes his meaning of fun might be hogged up inside his apartment with a tub of icecream and his favourite chips with his favourite novel, manga or overly cheesy drama.

But…maybe this time he'll have a different type of fun. He'll try to live his last years like a new person, ignoring his past and everything.
Maybe that way he can be happy?

With a sudden determination Shaoyou called out at Chen Pinming.

“Pinming…” Shaoyou with an odd softness said.

Pinming has always been near him, Pinming was probably a saint for keeping up with him, maybe he should raise the poor man's salary.

" Yes, Mr. Sheng?“ Pinming said with confused horror, his insane boss was acting werid since morning.

"Detour at the shopping mall, I am taking a day off… we are gonna buy some clothes…” Shaoyou calmly said, Chen Pinming looked at Shaoyou confusedly.

His workholic boss was taking a day off? In the last two years the S-class Alpha did not get a single vacation unless at rut.

“O-Okay, Mr.Sheng, I will account it and will reschedule everything today…” Chen Pinming nodded.

Chen Pinming was officially living a nightmare. He's not joking he is. Shaoyou Sheng was insane. He thought that previously, now he knows that. The very Sheng Shaoyou that always wore shirts, suit, blazer, high brand styles, elegant and just…buisnessmanlike was going through fucking fluffy jackets, satin shirts, lace, crops, sleeveless, backless, tops, tshirts, hoodies. Don't even start with the colour scheme… pink, green, light blue, light pink, red, yellow, orange the whole fucking rainbow! Where did those muted colours fucking went? God IS THAT A FUCKING SKIRT?!

Shaoyou didn't care about the judging look of anyone, he could tell Chen Pinming was going through a crisis, devastation, pandamic, apocalypse, drought, flood in his inner monologue but he has decided he's not fucking with that anymore. He has given enough fuck now he needs them back.

Shaoyou hated these, dressing up pretty, feeling pretty, feeling good in general. From his past experiences… he learnt to act tough so people won't hurt him, won't touch him but he doesn't care anymore. He wants to heal and die happily atleast once even if it means rewinding again.

“Pack all these…” Shaoyou said with a blank look before shooking his head, act nice and suddenly turning to Chen Pinming. He was wearing a white shirt and cargo pants. Casual yet so unfamiliar on him, he has given up on casual after college.

" Pinming… pack all these…" Shaoyou said smiling softly. He should try acting softer and calmer too.

Chen Pinming's actually dropped, actually dropped. Almost touching the ground.

“Mr. Sheng are you feeling well?" Chen Pinming asked before he could stop himself.
Maybe he should contact a doctor, a psychologist, a psychiatrist or maybe a exorcist.

Shaoyou raised an eyebrow playfully smiling. Smiling naturally felt nice.

“Why? Do I look unwell, Pinming?" Shaoyou asked smiling. Chen Pinming wanted to nod but his love for the job making him shook.

“Let's go eat…" Shaoyou said crossing his arms with a shrug.

" Which restaura—" Chen Pinming opened his tablet already ready to reserve a VIP section at a five star restaurant.

“Street food… I heard Nangfang road has alot of varieties… let's go there…” Sheng Shaoyou said.

Chen Pinming's tablet fell from his hand making a loud noise on the empty floor.

Shaoyou looked at Chen Pinming with a concerned yet the amusement was clear on his eyes. He crouched down and picked the tablet up.

“It's a bit expensive you know…” Shaoyou hummed handing it back to Pinming before walking to the elevator, Pinming praying to God, walking to the elevator.

Shaoyou's eye twitched at the busyness of the street. Shaoyou doesn't eat much, his stomach can only ground much before he throws up. But seeing the various types of food made him curious.

“Pinming…Do you eat well?“ Shaoyou asked his secretary.

Chen Pinming suddenly felt a bad omen and looked at Shaoyou.

“I eat moderate..." Chen Pinming said.

Shaoyou hummed. He needs a dustbin who eat everything after he tasted them, maybe he should search for a foodie omega.

Shaoyou settled with mochi and ate them.

" What's my schedule tomorrow?“ Shaoyou asked as they both sat beside eachother chewing on the soft sweet treat. Shaoyou doesn't like sweets but these Mochis weren't sweet luckily.

Chen Pinming who was eating the food mechanically looked up and said the schedule.

" After that you have a meeting with HS corporation…” Chen Pinming said making Shaoyou hum.

Suddenly a mischevious yet nice idea popped in his head, matchmaking.

In his past life before he died he heard the roaming gossips about Shen Wenlang and his secretary Gao Tu's 'tragic' love story.

Shen Wenlang and him weren't in the nicest stand off with eachother, two prideful S-class alpha both stupid. Though they weren't the meanest with eachother but not the nicest either.

Gao Tu on the other hand was kind, the former beta/omega was always kind with him. Even Shaoyou never guessed the beta was hiding his identity as an omega. Though it must've been hard. Poor Gao Tu. He should help the man this time.

He has no real grudge against the sore loser maybe he should spare the little ass of the pain.

Chapter Text

“...." Chen Pinming wanted to cry, sob, hurl. 

“Mr. Sheng.... Should I give you a minute to change?" Chen Pinming said, the first thing in the morning he saw Shaoyou wearing a turtle neck blouse in Burgundy shade that suits his pale exterior.

The blouse fitted his waist like glove, it had a billowing volume at the sleeves which in the end appeared to be cuff. Right at the collar there was a asymmetric flowy bow. The top is tucked giving a fine detail of the waist. A high waisted dark black trousers that enhanced the overall grace and beauty of the outfit. 

“Why? Do I look bad in it?" Shaoyou asked raising an eyebrow. 

Quite the opposite. Chen Pinming shook his head with the bothersome thought. 

“Still... I mean... It's a meeting... Is it okay to wear such...?" Chen Pinming gulped. 

“Shen Wenlang isn't deserving of my thoughts..." Shaoyou arrogantly said. 

Chen Pinming didn't know if he should cry or laugh, atleast his boss was still prideful. (He doesn't know if he should take it positively or negatively)

“... Let's just....go..." Chen Pinming sighed knowing very well how his boss could be stubborn. 

Shaoyou wanted to laugh like a madman. Why didn't he actually act crazy before? Everyone's reaction were just plain hilarious. 

“Mr. Sheng you are her—” Gao Tu said walking to the entrance but his voice giving out as he noticed the man's new 'style'? 

" Yeah... Sorry about coming early... Didn't have anything better to do..." Shaoyou shrugged smiling softly at the beta. 

The beta almost dazedly nodded before mentally slapping himself. 

“No problem... Mr. Shen is... Is... In his office..." Gao Tu cleared his throat. 

“Let me just go and check if he's ready..." Gao Tu smiled and let Shaoyou wait in the waiting lounge. 

Shaoyou hummed and sat down grabbing Chen Pinming's tablet who looked helpless and dead before playing subway surfers. 

“Get out Hua Yong I have a meeting with Shaoyou in thirty minutes..." Shen Wenlang rolled his eyes looking at his cursed friend who was crashing at his place. 

“Hm... Go ahead have it... I am bored... I thought you promised to show me Jianghu after I come from Country P... Don't ruin my vacation..." Hua Yong calmly said, the enigma was at Jianghu to check the area and see if it's any good for X holdings extension. 

Suddenly a knock interrupted them both. Shen Wenlang who was about to retort sighed. 

“Come in..." Shen Wenlang said. 

Gao Tu walked in and spoke up, “Mr. Sheng has arrived sooner than expected... Should I call him in?" 

Shen Wenlang looked at the clock and nodded. Gao Tu bowed and left. 

“Now leave atleast? I have work..." Shen Wenlang scoffed. 

“Nope, I am bored... Might as well see the infamous Sheng Shaoyou..." Hua Yong smiled infuriatingly. 

“Do whatever you want, psycho..." Shen Wenlang rolled his eyes. 

The door opened. Shaoyou walked in, poor Shen Wenlang who was drinking some water spat it out begining to cough. 

Shen Wenlang and Shaoyou met eachother before thanks to company gatherings and bullshits. But each and every time the S-class alpha held the arrogance of a cat and pride of an lion and was annoying to the gut. But now seeing the man in a flowy dress and stylish outfit was making him want to gurge his own eyes out. 

“Choking on water is a werid way to die, Wenlang... Have some pride when dying atleast..." Shaoyou smiled kindly though it came out more as a mock. He sat down infront of Shen Wenlang's chair and but his eyes settled on the man that was sitting on the couch. Werid this enigmatic omega wasn't here in his past life. Is it because he arrived earlier?

The man was undoubtedly beautiful. 

“You are one of the prettiest person I have ever seen..." Shaoyou softly smiled. 

“Thank you..." Hua Yong said, his eyes taking in the Alpha's feature. Sharp yet soft features, wise yet stupid eyes, plump lip. What a pretty person. 

Shen Wenlang finally calmed down as Gao Tu handed him a glass of water. 

“What the fuck are you wearing?!" Shen Wenlang asked what others have been dying to ask. 

“Clothes?" Shaoyou looked at Shen Wenlang as if he had grown an extra eye. 

“Don't tell me your coughing fit made you cough out your braincells..." Shaoyou smiled crossing his leg. 

“Clothes I see but what the hell! You are wearing an scandalous outfit that even an omega would think twice before wearing..." Shen Wenlang said. 

“Oh come on... Don't be so bitter just because I look hotter than you and since when did clothes starts to have rules?" Shaoyou sassed. 

" And control your phenomenon…your secretary has asthama…” Shaoyou teased though Gao Tu felt grateful.

“Shall we start the meeting or should I consider you have a crush on me instead offff...." Shaoyou smiled teasingly giving a vague glance at Gao Tu that the poor beta missed. 

Shen Wenlang spattered. 

Oh this is gonna be fun. 

Oh this is gonna be a headache. 

Both Hua Yong and Chen Pinming thought but opposites. 

“SHENG SHAOYOU!!" 

Shaoyou missed the cup narrowly but smirked. As Gao Tu half scolded half whispered to Shen Wenlang.

“Yeah that's my name... Don't be so rude now... Let's start the meeting, hm?“ Shaoyou smiled. 

The meeting was going well till it wasn't, Shen Wenlang's last braincells were working overtime to reason it's illegal to kill people and Sheng Shaoyou was having fun annoying the said Alpha. 

Gao Tu the lovely secretery noting his boss's veins sympathized knowing Sheng Shaoyou's new personality was like a storm, not many could stand it. Though it was too heartbreaking to scold the handsome man. 

Hua Yong was having a field day, maybe Jianghu isn't as boring as he previously thought. There are people unlike Shen Wenlang too. The Alpha was simply exquisite, Hua Yong never believed in love but for the first time in his life he felt yearning. The smell of orange laced with rum was making his usually calm heart race with anticipation and desire, the man's soft yet authoritive voice was like sirens melody in Hua Yong's ear. In his heart he could tell it was his beloved. His mate, his fate. 

“Mr. Sheng would you like something to drink? Mr. Shen what about you?“ Gao Tu asked not wanting Shen Wenlang to actually commit crime. 

Shen Wenlang let out a gruff hum. Gao Tu nodded knowing Shen Wenlang's order. 

Shaoyou looked up thinking what to drink, tea felt too cliche, he hates sweets so no sweet drink, coffee is boring people drink maybe he should drink poision. Wait no people might outcast him if he says those psychopathic words given his recent behaviours. 

" Just give me some chocolate milkshake... Make sure it has dark chocolate... And less sugar..." Shaoyou said smiling softly making the beta slightly surprise, he expected tea or coffee, that's a…refined taste. 

Hua Yong sighed almost dreamily, god could this day get even better? 

“Oh actually you know what I will pay for it… a cup of coffee for everyone in the building…” Shaoyou smiled as Chen Pinming hurriedly gave a card to Gao Tu to pay for the drinks.

Gao Tu looked at the pretty man and nodded with a kind smile, the man wasn't as bad as everyone perceives him as.

“What are you? A child? Milkshake? And that too with so much demands? And what's with suddenly doing charity work?" Shen Wenlang scoffed. 

“Oh shut it... Free will is a thing that people doesn't use..." Shaoyou rolled his eyes as Gao Tu left after getting Chen Pinming and Hua Yong's orders. 

“You overwork the poor man, he's currently working as a waiter..." Shaoyou said looking at the closed door where Gao Tu was. 

“You! Will you teach me what I should do with my secretary and workers?" Shen Wenlang glared. 

“If I have to... Accept it... Look at the poor man's face... He has been your secretary for 4 years and friend for 7 years yet you always mistreat him... Maybe if you use your lousy mouth a bit less things would be better..." Shaoyou said crossing his arms. 

“Sheng Shaoyou!" Shen Wenlang growled letting his phenomenon out, angry iris filled the room as Shaoyou closed his nose, he has no intention on fighting. He has to be happy right? 

“See! How stingy you are!" Shaoyou said. 

“At this rate anyone would come and steal your secretary... Maybe even I might..." Shaoyou smiled mischeviously, jealousy traps should work for fools in love.

 And it did work. 

“You little piece o—”Shen Wenlang got up ready to fight the S-class alpha, his heart oddly beating at the thought of Gao Tu not being with him. 

The door opened and Gao Tu walked in immediately struggling as his nostrils grabbed the thick phenomenon. Shen Wenlang breaking out of his daze immediately stabilized him. 

" Get out! Get out now! “ Shen Wenlang thundered. 

" Yeah yeah whatever... See you later Wenlang... Use your thick skull, idiot... “ Shaoyou said grabbing the milkshake from the tray and walking out. 

Chen Pinming tornly bowed and left along his boss. 

" What happened... Why... Why was... “ Gao Tu gasped taking his inhaler. 

" That bastard was just being an ass... “ Shen Wenlang spat as Gao Tu calmed down. Now Shen Wenlang actually takes a good look he sees what Shaoyou meant. Gao Tu looked tired, dark under eye, pale lips, face paler than he remembers. 

“You should have acted polite… Mr. Sheng is a nice man…” Gao Tu said, the alpha was very kind to him. 

Pretty privilege is fucking real, suddenly that idiot is loved…Shen Wenlang scoffed.

“Hm... I am leaving..." Hua Yong said from behind. 

“Seriously?! What happened to me showing you Jianghu? Going back to country P or what?" Shen Wenlang grumbled. 

“Leave? Oh no... Instead I plan on permanently coming here... I assume you will handle everything here..." Hua Yong smiled and walked out making Shen Wenlang confusedly look at him. 

What the fuck happened to this lunatic now? Why's everyone suddenly so crazy?Shen Wenlang thought. 

The next day, Shaoyou was on lunch break and decided to eat out. He was waiting for the traffic light to change.

He was wearing a black, oversized, cropped cardigan with a V-neckline and chunky buttons. The knit texture adds a cozy feel, and the slightly cropped, slouchy fit is a popular modern silhouette. It serves as a comfortable layering piece. As bottoms he was wearing Light-wash, high-waisted, wide-leg denim cargo pants and white pair of sneakers blending seamlessly into a casual look that enhanced his boyish young features.

“Oh Mr. Sheng?" Shaoyou heard a gentle voice and turned around.

“Oh…Mr. Gao..“ Shaoyou smiled brightly before noticing Shen Wenlang and that beautiful stranger too.

“Oh? What are you guys doing here?" Shaoyou asked teasingly at Shen Wenlang who gave pissed yet soft look, looks like Shaoyou is breaking through the tough exterior.

“Just showing Hua Yong around…” Shen Wenlang said crossing his arms.

" Hua Yong…must be your name…" Shaoyou smiled at the beautiful man.

“I didn't get to ask previously about you…” Shaoyou smiled at Hua Yong.

" Oh…I am Hua Yong…secretery of X holdings CEO…..“ Hua Yong smiled slowly. Shen Wenlang choked and started to cough.

“You are awfully coughing nowadays…” Shaoyou sassed before looking at Hua Yong.

" Ohhh I see… I thought Chang Yu was the secretary?" Shaoyou asked, he had not much connection with the people of Country P but he remembers Chang Yu representing at all the gatherings as the secretary of X holdings in his past life.

“Yes… he is… it's just our boss has many helpers…” Hua Yong smiled.

" I see…" Shaoyou nodded.

“What about you Mr. Sheng? What are you doing at this hour? Going for lunch?" Gao Tu asked, Shen Wenlang asked Gao Tu to take a day off and hang out with them and oddly enough Shen Wenlang was being very caring too and Gao Tu thinks Sheng Shaoyou has something to do with it.

“Yeah!“ Shaoyou smiled. 

" How about you join us for lunch?“ Hua Yong tentatively smiled, Shen Wenlang's neck snapped towards Hua Yong so fast that others thought he might have a whiplash.

The very Hua Yong who despised people was welcoming someone for lunch?!

" Aw! Thank you for the offer but I am gonna have to pass, wouldn't want someone to crack open their neck... “ Shaoyou smiled. 

" What's that supposed to mean? You can join!“ Shen Wenlang grumpily said knowing if Shaoyou leaves now Hua Yong will garnish him.

“Hahaha…. It's fin—” Shaoyou smiled genuinely. It was nice feeling to talk without exterior pressure and feel humanoid.

" Please we insist…take it as a payback for ruining the time yesterday…” Gao Tu softly smiled.

Shaoyou sighed with a slight pout making Shen Wenlang's eyes twitch in shock and Hua Yong's in…in admiration? Love? Desire? 

“Fine…” Shaoyou smiled texting Chen Pinming about his outing, good thing he was free for the evening.

Shen Wenlang chose a three Michelin resturent as expected. Gao Tu and Shen Wenlang sat beside eachother while Sheng Shaoyou and Hua Yong sat beside eachother.

Shaoyou was going through the menu, nothing seemed to interesting, he felt Hua Yong's gaze on him and looked up. 

“Hm?" Shaoyou hummed questioning, tilting his head. Hua Yong shook his head his heart racing at Shaoyou's cuteness.

“Are you an omega?" Shaoyou asked now, the pretty man was wearing an inhibitor all the time so he couldn't smell the man but surely a pretty man like him should be an omega right? 

Hua Yong's sparkless yet mesmerizing eyes paused on him and then he spoke up. 

“…no…” Hua Yong smiled, he didn't wanted to lie but at the same time he doesn't want to give away his identity away either.

Shaoyou hummed god he almost thought the omega hating Shen Wenlang was hanging with one.

"Oh? Sorry… I didn't mean to come out rude…then you must be an alpha!” Shaoyou said slightly pouting as Hua Yong smiled but made no effort to disagree. Might as well have some fun.

As the waiter came and began taking orders Shaoyou was still contemplating.

“Sir?" The waiter looked at the pretty man, god his eyes were blessed two beautiful man sitting beside eachother. He didn't know who was prettier. 

“Hm… I would like fries and... Honey garlic chicken.. “ Shaoyou smiled, the waiter stared at Shaoyou as if asking him to continue. 

Shaoyou sheepishly smiled. " That's all... “ Shaoyou said.

Shaoyou faced this situation often as even as a alpha he eats quite less, he just doesn't like to eat much maybe that's why he was quite slender even for an alpha. Usually he would order and give half of the portion to Chen Pinming and since the beloved secretary wasn't present he will settle with appetizers... 

“He will have a medium done ground beef along with that... “ Shen Wenlang said, is Shaoyou fucking with him? A S-class alpha eating so less? 

" You—I can't eat so much! “ Shaoyou said as the waiter hurried off. 

" You are a S-class alpha... You have work too... How do you plan on surving on so little? “ Shen Wenlang scoffed. 

" I can't eat all that!" Shaoyou said. 

“Why you have stomach issues?" Shen Wenlang raised an eyebrow teasing. 

Shaoyou rolled his eyes giving a fake laugh. 

“Hahaha very funny, Mr. Shen.. but seriously if I eat all that I won't be able to eat dinner..." Shaoyou said, foods and him never goes well after... That. 

" Don't fight now... If you can't finish it just give it to us... “ Gao Tu said, these two damn alpha. Shaoyou beamed at the beta who slightly blushed.

Hua Yong wasn't pleased with his alpha's eating habits, no wonder the man was so slender for an alpha. 

" So, is X holdings planning on opening a branch here? “ Shaoyou asked to Hua Yong. In past, X holdings opened a branch in Jianghu with a HS group.

“We are contemplating... “ Hua Yong smiled wondering if Shaoyou will take the chance. 

Shaoyou hummed sipping on the wine Shen Wenlang chose, he didn't plan on extending his hand or anything, he was dying and rewinding any fucking way. 

" If need of any help Sheng biotech's door is open... “ Shaoyou said, it wasn't commitment or anything, as a businessman he wasn't gonna let the chance escape completely either. He didn't wanted to play with the ties anymore. 

Hua Yong just smiled and nodded, what a interesting fellow, Hua Yong thought Shaoyou might jump on the opportunity but that wasn't the case if seems. 

“What's with this new dress up anyway?" Shen Wenlang finally asked what has been bugging his head for the last few days. 

Shaoyou shrugged grabbing another glass. 

“Just felt like it... We only live once... So that would be a loss if we don't live to the fullest... “ Shaoyou chuckled, only live once. Liar liar pants on fire. 

" By changing your wardrobe? “ Shen Wenlang scoffed. 

" If you want to be a bitch be a hot bitch atleast...“ Shaoyou huffed as Shen Wenlang glared at the alpha. 

" Pfft... “ Hua Yong couldn't help but to snort making Gao Tu laugh and slowly all of them were laughing while Shen Wenlang's lip just twitched into a reluctant smile. 

As the waiter put the food down. 

" Wait wait! Let me take pictures!“ Shaoyou said snapping pictures, good memories means good vibes, good vibes means happy life? 

Shen Wenlang groaned. 

" Becoming a influencer now Shaoyou? “ Shen Wenlang tsked though waited for Shaoyou to take pictures. 

" Hm! I have to connect well with the young generation so I can market their needs too... “ Shaoyou smiled checking the picture before signalling them to begin eating. 

" Now if you market stuffs for toddler, are you planning on becoming one too? Oh wait you already act like one... “ Shen Wenlang huffed. 

" What about you? I heard HS group is releasing a new toilet wash?“ Shaoyou smirked chewing on the fries as Shen Wenlang spattered. 

"So Mr. Sheng—" Gao Tu began. 

“Shaoyou.." Shaoyou smiled. 

“You guys can call me Shaoyou..." Shaoyou smiled softly. 

" Oh then it's Gao Tu... “ Gao Tu smiled. 

" I will just call you Tu-Tu! “ Shaoyou smiled delightedly as Gao Tu mentally awed at the nickname. 

" What are you? A child nicknaming people? “ Shen Wenlang hissed. 

" Don't be pissed A-lang... “ Shaoyou teased as Shen Wenlang's jaw dropped. 

“..." Hua Yong almost looked at Shaoyou expectantly, Shaoyou noticing the look smiled. 

“A-yong! Start eating or your food will get cold!" Shaoyou smiled as Hua Yong felt his heart flutter, if he only could record this moment, he looked around for CCTV. He'll need to ask for the footage later. 

“Thank you for the treat guys!" Shaoyou said calling his driver to pick him up. 

“No problem... How about we exchange numbers?" Gao Tu smiled, Shaoyou was fun to hang around. 

“Oh! Of course!" Shaoyou said exchanging numbers. 

“Bye byee! Good night guys!" Shaoyou smiled and waved before walking to the car. 

“Agh... He has seriously gone insane..." Shen Wenlang said saving Shaoyou's number but his eyes twitched when he noticed what he saved his name as. 

👑Shao-Shao👑

XXXXXXXXXX

“Aw he saved his name as Shao-Shao..." Gao Tu smiled making Shen Wenlang scoff. Lunatic. 

Hua Yong on the other hand was adding heart beside the crowns. His beloved queen after all. 

Chapter Text

“What are you wearing?" One of the old fart shareholder immediately said as Shaoyou walked inside.

Shaoyou was wearing The most striking piece is the black collared shirt with intricate white embroidery.

The embroidery has a floral or swirling, ornamental pattern that evokes a sense of antique elegance.

The shirt appears to be a slightly looser fit, possibly made of a lightweight, flowing fabric. The top two buttons are undone, revealing a glimpse of a dark inner layer likely a camisole or bralette.

As bottoms The wearer is sporting dark, high-waisted trousers, possibly in a charcoal gray or deep brown. They have a relaxed, tailored fit that complements the flow of the shirt. A dark leather belt with a decorative, possibly silver-toned, buckle cinches the waist, adding structure and defining the silhouette. A simple black choker necklace provides a touch of modern minimalism and adds to the slightly edgy vibe.

“Clothes..." Shaoyou calmly said sitting down crossing his legs, he purposely wore this outfit to get on others nerves. Chen Pinming has already gotten used to this(he's gaslighting himself)

“I indeed heard Mr. Sheng was experimenting... But didn't expected this..." Another said eyeing Shaoyou up and down taking in the look, if Shaoyou was an omega there would have hell to pay.

“Well you guys need that experiment more than I do..." Shaoyou said smiling coldly before others could retort with a glare Shaoyou's voice rang out again.

“I am sure we didn't came here to discuss my outfit.." Shaoyou hummed shutting them up.

“Start the meeting..." Shaoyou cooly said.

"….How foolish are you guys?“ Shaoyou asked with a slight tone of disbelief and mock.

" Raising price on basic products for Omegas? Don't forget they are the reason you guys are able to sit here…the price we have settled on already gives us enough profit…and you think if we raise price our sales would stay the same?“ Shaoyou scoffed, fuckers he hates alphas that thinks they can take advantage of Omegas vulnerability.

" But when we share it we take too less… and omeg—” One old fucker that might die on the next cough spoke up.

" Then get out of this deal…" Shaoyou said his tone ice cold. He needs some chocolate milk.

“If any single of you want to fuck with the price of omega products get out of this deal…” Shaoyou crossed his arm, even with such outfit his S-class Alpha aura baring teeth. Others gulped and looked away.

" No one? Good… Omegas are the mother's of this world… we should be ashamed to make their safety and health as a buisness… I suppose we are done… I am leaving then…” Shaoyou said getting up and walking away.

“Can you believe how absurd they are? Who do they think they are? Sheng biotech has always held their pride for being the most affordable omega care products and now they want to make it expensive? I hope they choke on their alcohol and die…I hope they stub their toes…” Shaoyou pouted at Chen Pinming who agreed as they both sipped on their respective drinks.

They were standing by a bridge near their company relishing under the slightly cold air.

Chen Pinming felt odd, the contrast between the Shaoyou in the office room and infront of him was completely different. As if their was two different person.

" Who stubs their toe?“ A gentle voice asked. Shaoyou turned around and saw Hua Yong.

" A-yong!! Hey! What are you doing here?" Shaoyou smiled at Hua Yong.

“Just taking a walk" stalking… Hua Yong answered with a shy smile.

" Ohh here I have spare one!“ Shaoyou said handing Hua Yong a small bottle too.

" Thank you…" Hua Yong smiled, chocolate milk? Maybe he should ask Chang Yu to open a chocolate milk section at X holdings for his beloved alpha.

“Seeing you made my day better!" Shaoyou smiled as Hua Yong almost went over the clouds, Poor Shaoyou isn't even aware how his words were affecting the pretty man.

“Oh right right! Chen Pinming this Hua Yong, X holdings secretery and Hua Yong this is my secretery slash bestfriend you could say! He's a saint honestly for keeping up with me!" Shaoyou smiled. Chen Pinming bowed politely but was surprised slightly when he felt the other man's sudden glare. Hua Yong instantly felt jealous over Pinming. Bestfriend? Saint? Did Shaoyou liked the beta? Hua Yong's mind plotted before he smiled at Pinming and introduced himself.

“ How are you liking Jianghu so far?" Shaoyou asked smiling leaning against the bar, well when he first died he jumped off this very bridge.

" Hm… can't tell all yet since I still haven't visited all places here…but so far so good…especially the people…” Hua Yong smiled, lies Shen Wenlang already gave him a tour but Shaoyou doesn't need to know that.

" What? A-lang still hasn't showed you around? What an ass…” Shaoyou tsked shooking his head. Hua Yong pitifully nodded making Shaoyou's heart slightly stutter, god is he having a heartattack? Shaoyou thought before shooking his head to remove the thought.

" Wait… I have an idea!" Shaoyou smiled and Chen Pinming could already tell it's gonna be something messy. Shaoyou pulled out his phone and dialled Gao Tu's number waiting few seconds as the other line rang for few seconds before the call was recieved.

“Shaoyou?" Gao Tu's voice was heard on the other hand.

“Tu-Tu! Are you and A-lang busy this weekend?" Shaoyou excitedly asked. There was a slight pause before Gao Tu spoke up.

“Not really… why?“ Gao Tu asked.

" Let's go on a tour or something! We can show A-yong around too! Is A-lang around?“ Shaoyou smiled already buzzing with excitement.

" Yes?" Gao Tu said though others could imagine the soft smile behind the hum.

“Put it on speaker then!" Shaoyou said.

“What the fuck do you want?" Shen Wenlang's grumpy voice was heard.

“A lot! So here's the plan! Since A-yong still hasn't visited all places of Jianghu how about we go on a small vacation? We will start on Saturday morning, visit all the remarkable places here and then at night we'll travel to coastal beach and then by Sunday night or Monday morning we'll come back to Jianghu?“ Shaoyou smiled, going around and visiting places should make him happy right?

“What do you mean Hua Yong hasn't se—” Shen Wenlang was about to speak up, he himself showed Hua Yong around, what the fuck was Sheng Shaoyou sprouting.

" See! Wenlang is not letting me visit Jianghu properly!“ Hua Yong said pouting at Shaoyou but the slight tightness was present. Shen Wenlang finally got the hint and face palmed.

"….Do whatever you want…." Wenlang sighed. Shaoyou mentally rejoiced perfect time to matchmake Wenlang and Gao Tu. Shaoyou mentally laughed, Chen Pinming again felt bad omen.

“Is he fucking joking me?" Shen Wenlang grumbled as they waited infront of Shaoyou's apartment.

“Calm down… he massaged me last night saying he had a last minute meeting so he came back late…” Gao Tu said as Wenlang gripped on the steering wheel rolling his eyes.

" Wenlang…let the alpha take it's sweet time..he must be dressing pretty…” Hua Yong said already imagining Shaoyou in boxers in the beach, body wet hair wet, he shook his head to shrug off the naughty thoughts.

" Don't salivate and don't fucking ruin our trip by fucking…” Wenlang spat already sensing the manic radar rising. Hua Yong gave a dry look.

" You are just jealous you don't get laid…” Hua Yong smiled. Shen Wenlang bustled and Gao Tu calmed the man down though Gao Tu felt his heart stutter at the thought of Shen Wenlang being with someone.

" Mr. Sheng just messaged me…" Hua Yong almost excitedly opened the chat.

“Oh…he asked us to go to his apartment…” Hua Yong felt his heart race, Shaoyou's apartment? His residence? Goddd!!

" Welcome in!!“ Shaoyou smiled opening the door, he was wearing a satin pajama, hair down.

" You woke up as at 5 am and now welcoming in your home? Shaoyou you better pray to god I don't punch you…” Shen Wenlang grumbled.

" Yeah yeah I know guys! It's just I came back laaaate at night! I just finished packing! And since all of us are sleepy why don't we leave after a cup of coffee?“ Shaoyou smiled walking inside putting down warm mugs of coffee with different animal shape on top of that.

Shaoyou's house was renovated too, he found the mute and lifeless colour boring and goggled that bright colour makes people happy so he renovated everything. So he coloured his rooms according to colour theory, drew patterns and stuffs, hung pictures, aesthetic shits, changed furniture to comfortable ones. He even hung fairy lights!

" You should open a cafe if you ever go bankrupt…” Shen Wenlang grumbled sipping on the coffee.

" Not a bad idea…" Shaoyou smiled, high probability that his shareholders might kick him off.

“How's the coffee?" Shaoyou smiled.

" Good…” Gao Tu smiled.

" Delicious…” Hua Yong said relishing the taste.

" What's up with your room dude? First of all you live in a apartment that's equivalent to a room in my mansion and now this? I feel like I came to pinterest user's wet dream…” Shen Wenlang said eyeing the place, scented candles, cute mugs, god worse than a omega.

" It's easier to clean and live! I don't want to get lost in a maze of house and it's livelier here…” Shaoyou said shrugging.

" I am going to get changed!" Shaoyou said walking to his room.

" His house is really nice…" Gao Tu sighed, it's been very long since he felt home somewhere else.

“Yeah just like him…” Hua Yong said looking around like a hawk, printing every single detail in his heart and mind.

" Why doesn't he have any pictures of him around?“ Hua Yong dissapointedly said, he was kind of eager to see Shaoyou's photos or his childhood photos but the only picture he saw was some cat or paintings.

“What? You gonna steal them?" Shen Wenlang scoffed leaning against the fluffy couch, he would be a liar if he said he didn't like the sheer softness of the couch and plushies were top-notch. Hua Yong just shrugged.

After a while Shaoyou came out with a trolley. The outfit he was wearing features an oversized light blue button-up shirt, which is casually tucked into high-waisted black trousers. The trousers have an interesting detail with exposed buttons at the waist. He was also wearing a small black cross-body bag with a silver chain strap, a silver necklace, and rings.

“I am ready!" Shaoyou said. Hua Yong sighed, his alpha was so beautiful, he can't wait to get him pregn—

Hua Yong mentally slapped himself.

“Thank god... Let's go now..." Shen Wenlang said getting up.

"Hmm... “ Shaoyou hummed locking the door and was about to grab the trolley but Hua Yong was faster. Shaoyou looked at Hua Yong confusedly who gave a innocent smile.

“You... Don't have to do that...?" Shaoyou confusedly said.

“It's fine... I am exercising..." Hua Yong gave the most shittiest excuse ever known to human kind, Shen Wenlang already felt fed up and Gao Tu was monotone about the whole thing.

Shaoyou shrugged, it's not that deep anyway.

The whole day, they drove around the major parts of Jianghu.

As they finally came to the vila they booked for the day, they were beat. Shen Wenlang was checking at the details of the vila while Shaoyou was checking the photos in his newly bought camera, memories… when he asked that deepkeek about what to do to make memories happy, they said storing and taking pictures and looking back at them might make someone happy so he's doing that.

“Here your spare house keys…” Shen Wenlang tossed the card at Shaoyou who grabbed it without looking up, S-class alpha reflex.

" Hm… wanna go clubbing after a nap?" Shaoyou said smiling, it's not like he'll be able to sleep anyway, his insomnia is bad already and once he falls asleep he doesn't want to get up.

“How much energy do you have? Absolutely not… and you are not going anywhere alone either…” Shen Wenlang scolded, why does he feel like he's becoming a babysitter? Shaoyou pouted and rolled his eyes.

" Boring people…" Shaoyou huffed walking inside the vila he has always been wanting to come, just by the sea and forest.

“It's okay Shaoyou… we can go tomorrow… for now rest, hm?“ Gao Tu smiled tiredly slumping down on the couch. Shaoyou nodded and took pictures around.

“Woah! You think there would be fox or animals in that forest?" Shaoyou asked looking at the dense forest behind the vila.

“Don't know, don't want to know…” Wenlang said huffing, he is never having kids, having a hyperactive alpha around was a free trial and he didn't needed to know more.

" There should be… I saw a be careful of animals sign on the way here…” Hua Yong said gently smiling, his eyes following his alphas each step.

" Ohh! I hope I come across a rabbit!“ Shaoyou said coming back and sitting beside Hua Yong who mentally noted to ask Chang Yu about bringing rabbits.

“I am going to get freshened up..." Gao Tu said getting up.

“Fine... You go... I will take your bags to your room..." Wenlang said as Gao Tu was about to hesitate.

“Yeah yeah! A-Lang will do that! What a gentleman... Atleast you have some good left in your ass..." Shaoyou smiled shutting Gao Tu up, he needs to matchmake Gao Tu and Shen Wenlang. Shen Wenlang bustled and threw a pillow at him but Shaoyou dodged it.

“I bid for upstairs room! Goodbye!" Shaoyou smiled and ran upstairs to check his room.

“Woah... Look at this baby... “ Shaoyou smiled taking pictures. The room was spacious enough with a bed and a study table, a TV and attached bathroom.

However the star of the scene was the open balcony that was directly connected to the sea. Shaoyou walked to the balcony and looked down to see the water splashing against the concrete.

" What a nice suicidal spot... “ Shaoyou muttered taking pictures.

" What spot? “ Hua Yong's deep voice made Shaoyou jump out of his skin, when did this man enter?!

" Tidal! “ Shaoyou quickly said as he turned around but was surprised to see the darkness on Hua Yong's usually beautiful face.

" Oh.... Here your trolley... “ Hua Yong slowly changed his expression and smiled, he looked eternal under the moonlight.

" Oh... You didn't have to... “ Shaoyou smiled walking to Hua Yong who nodded with a blank smile. I am quite sure, I heard suicidal... Hua Yong thought handing Shaoyou his trolley.

“Thanks for bringing it here..." Shaoyou smiled.

“No problem..." Hua Yong looked back, eyes full of admiration, Shaoyou looked beautiful under the moonlight.

“Which room are you taking?" Shaoyou switched the topic.

“Just across the hall... Wenlang and Gao Tu is taking the downstairs..." Hua Yong said looking around. Shaoyou nodded.

“Okay then! Good night I suppose?" Shaoyou smiled.

Hua Yong nodded and left, werid. As an Engima his hearing his very very sharp, he shouldn't hear something so wrong or did he go crazy in love?

“What do you want?" Shen Wenlang grumbled as Hua Yong walked in his room with that annoying expression, this fucker and this fucker's obsession both will get him grey hair in his 20s.

“Hm... Go over there..." Hua Yong said pointing at the end of the room where a window is at. Shen Wenlang raised an eyebrow.

“Why?" Shen Wenlang asked, he's not taking any chance.

“I won't push you off now go...." Hua Yong assured.

“You owe me idiot..." Wenlang rolled his eyes getting up and walking towards the window.

“Now whisper something as low as possible..." Hua Yong said.

“You are a fucker..." Shen Wenlang scoffed lowly.

“Same to you..." Hua Yong said and walked away not bothering to explain himself. Huh? So he heard it correct? Was Shaoyou joking? But he sounded... So... Real... Hah... Maybe Shen Wenlang is a bit correct, he's going insane.

“Aw! You guys are matching... “ Shaoyou smiled as he saw Gao Tu and Shen Wenlang both matching no one needs to know he planned this by switching their outfits. Good thing he crashed at their luggage.

" Shut it!“ Shen Wenlang glared though he felt giddy.

They were wearing a plain white shirt and black shorts.

Gao Tu just slightly blushed.

Shaoyou was wearing black swim shorts, which appear to have an inner brief or lining, and possibly a slightly looser, quick-drying outer layer. There are drawstrings on the sides of the shorts, likely for adjusting the fit or creating a ruched effect. As top, It's a short-sleeved rash guard, The main color is a muted blue or slate grey, with black panels on the sides and white piping accents along the seams and neckline, giving it a sporty look. The cloth fitting his body like a glove.

“..." Hua Yong gave a tight look, his alpha looked way too good for others to see. Though he knew he was being a hypocrite as he was wearing a red top and white shorts. He looked good too but still Mr. Shent looked way too good.

“You look good, A-yong!" Shaoyou complimented Hua Yong who smiled shyly. Shen Wenlang gagged.

“Let's just go..." Shen Wenlang said slapping a inhibitor on his neck as they needed to cover their scent gland for the VIP beach. Shaoyou also grabbed one and put it on. Hua Yong already had one and Gao Tu oh well, anyone can guess.

“So? To the beach?“ Shaoyou said grabbing his bag. The beach wasn't that crowdy as it was a VIP section, just some rich alphas drinking, Omegas sunbathing, kids playing and shits.

Shaoyou was taking pictures as Shen Wenlang went straight to the bar to get drinks while Hua Yong and Gao Tu settled on a sunlounger.

“How are you enjoying the trip so far Mr. Hua?" Gao Tu smiled at Hua Yong.

“Good... Jianghu is a very nice country..." Hua Yong smiled softly.

“And just call me Hua Yong..." Hua Yong said pulling the sunscreen out.

" Then it's Gao Tu for you too... “ Gao Tu said.

Both of them chatted about various things. Shaoyou came back with Shen Wenlang who was grumbling about something.

" Here... “ Wenlang said handing them drinks.

"The weather is really nice today! “ Shaoyou said sipping on the blue mojito he ordered.

" Hm... Perfect for a swim... “ Shen Wenlang agreed on one thing with Shaoyou. Shaoyou was sipping on his drink when he suddenly had an idea.

" Though lovely weather... Sunburn isn't the nicest thing especially on the back.... How about you wear some sunscreen?“ Shaoyou said to Gao Tu who was wearing sunscreen on the front only. Shen Wenlang eyed Shaoyou up and down like a critic.

" Oh yeah? Since when did you get so caring?" Shen Wenlang said almost jealous, was Shaoyou implying on putting sunscreen on Gao Tu himself. Bingo... Shaoyou mentally smirked. Shaoyou just shrugged.

“Just saying dude... If you are so pricky about it why don't you do it your self?" Shaoyou said hoping Wenlang would take the bet.

Gao Tu was about to shrug it off saying he could do it himself but Shen Wenlang only snatched the sunscreen from his hand and began massaging the sunscreen on Gao Tu's leg and back. His hand surprisingly soft.

Shaoyou smirked and leaned against the sunlounger.

Hua Yong eyed the situationship infront of him before looking at the smug Shaoyou. His alpha was amazing, he looked at the sunscreen in his hand and smiled to himself, he pretended to struggle with his back hoping Shaoyou would notice it and would ask to help. Shaoyou was scrolling through his phone when Hua Yong's 'struggling' noise. He looked up and raised an eyebrow.

“Need help?" Shaoyou asked not thinking much, if it was his past live he would have fallen head over heels for the pretty man but two things changed one he was technically a dead man so romance isn't even a question and two Hua Yong is an alpha.

Hua Yong gave a pitiful look. “If it's not much..." Hua Yong softly said as Shaoyou stood up and began applying the cream.

" Woah your skin is really smooth! “ Shaoyou said. As Hua Yong just chuckled sheepishly.

Hypocrite... Hua Yong mentally, Shaoyou's skin was smooth and pale and gentle too.

He can only imagine how Shaoyou would glow under his Enigma phenomenon on full display.

After having some drinks they finally went to swim. Shen Wenlang and Sheng Shaoyou having a playful competition on who can hold their breath under water longest and Shaoyou won by tickling Shen Wenlang's stomach who threw a shell at him. Hua Yong and Gao Tu stayed peaceful and stayed ashore eyeing the two chaotic alphas like mother hens. 

Shaoyou was splashing water at Wenlang when his back hit against a broad back. 

“Sorry!" Shaoyou was quick to apologise and turned around, it was an alpha probably, tall, dark, muscular built like hulk and clearly wasted. Shaoyou moved away and immediately went to Wenlang again.

Wenlang rolled his eyes and started to splash water at each other again. They might acted like toddlers but atleast it was fucking fun. 

“Mr. Shen! You have a call!“ Gao Tu said.  

Wenlang grabbed a towel.

" This is not over... “ Wenlang said walking ashore to grab the phone as Shaoyou just poked his tongue out playfully. He swam around not thinking much. 

“Where is that psycho?" Wenlang asked. 

“To get a drink.. here..." Gao Tu said giving Wenlang the phone. 

Meanwhile, what went past their eyes was the drunk alpha's eyeing Shaoyou. Shaoyou's bodysuit was wet, his already tight outfit glistening under the sun. Pale smooth skin, doe eyes, bottom plump lip, small face. Perfect omega.

The Alpha walked behind Shaoyou who sensed someone coming. He didn't paid much attention, what can another alpha want from him…liar. Liar. Liar. How far will you ignore this Shaoyou.

Shaoyou shook his head, again that ominous feeling. However the sudden grip on his waist and the feeling of someone laying their head on his neck pulled him out of his thoughts. 

He felt his emotions go blank, numb. Resurfacing, dark room. Hunger, hands, laughters, smell of alcohol, tight grip, his hand clenched in a fist just as he was about to punch back he felt the bulky alpha getting slammed in the water. 

Shaoyou turned around to see Hua Yong. 

“Are you okay?" Hua Yong asked, his iris blown wide, if Shaoyou had doubts about the pretty man being an alpha or not he no longer has that. 

“I am fine..." Shaoyou said clearing his throat. 

“You! You omegas! How dare you touch me?!" The Alpha raged. 

Omega? Shaoyou wanted to laugh. What the fuck? 

“Who are you calling omega you little dick? Get out of my eyesight before I rip your tongue out..." Shaoyou said crossing his arms, he took his inhibitor off and released his phenomenon making the lower rank alpha shudder and run away. 

“You okay, Shaoyou?" Gao Tu said running to Shaoyou worried about the alpha. 

“Yeah I am okay... Thanks A-yong!" Shaoyou smiled at Hua Yong who's expression softened at Shaoyou's smile. 

“What kind of shitty guard system is this? Omega or not... Real Omegas are in real danger if people like this freely roams... “ Wenlang scoffed, he already told the guards to catch the fucker and give a piece of his mind (definitely not because he was worried about Shaoyou)

" Okay no more beach time.. let's just go back... “ Wenlang said as they got off the water. 

" Yeah yeah... I will go change from my wetsuit first... “ Shaoyou said as others were about to follow him too he stopped and raised an eyebrow. 

" Aww you guys are worried... Don't worry... I will be fine... Gao Tu how about you come with me?“ Shaoyou smiled as Gao Tu nodded and walked away. 

“Did you see that?" Hua Yong calmly asked.

“See what?" Shen Wenlang raised an eyebrow.

" His expression…" Hua Yong said, when he came back he indeed saw Shaoyou raise a fist to fight but before that for solid few seconds the expression the man had was…hunting.

“…You think something is wrong with him?“ Shen Wenlang asked.

"…. I am not sure…" Hua Yong said, he only saw Shaoyou for like few weeks that too exteregrated but from what he saw the man was werid. He thought of it the whole night, checked in with every buisness partners of Shaoyou and his past footages. In a matter of night can someone change so much?

And that expression of feeling completely numb, blank was something Hua Yong familiar with. But…why would an S-class Alpha who supposedly have 'everything' would wear such

an expression? And that night's mutter. 

What is Shaoyou hiding?
