I Like Your Pheromones - Chap 10
CH 10
The blood test results came out very quickly. The data showed that the pheromone compatibility between Lu Xingci and Duan Jiayan reached a staggering 99%.
While waiting for the blood test results, Duan Jiayan searched the Internet for information regarding the disorder.
Alpha stress disorder is a relatively common condition. However, most sick omegas experience difficulty finding a high-matching alpha, so, for safety reasons, they can only isolate themselves during estrus.
If a highly matched alpha can be found, the condition can be effectively treated by exchanging pheromones.
Duan Jiayan scrolled down to see what it means to exchange pheromones:
Sharing a bed for more than one night.
Exchanging saliva through kissing.
Temporary marking.
Permanent marking.
Using items contaminated with alpha pheromones can also relieve symptoms to some extent.
…
Note: If one of the behaviors alone does not alleviate the stress disorder, the above behaviors can be superimposed. Examples include temporary marking while kissing and kissing while hugging.
Each treatment was wilder than the next. Duan Jiayan had felt lost in the beginning, but now he has thought it out.
He is one of those people who have strong tolerance, so, if he can avoid being quarantined by receiving a temporary mark, he will choose the temporary mark.
Duan Jiayan held the report and hesitantly asked: “Why don’t you mark me?”
Lu Xingci spoke in a voice that was neither heavy nor light, and contained no emotion: “Why don’t you quarantine yourself?”
Duan Jiayan saw his look of not saving a drowning man, and for a moment he wanted to fight him. He wanted to drag Lu Xingci over by the collar and force him to bite his neck.
But he is not sure if he can overpower Lu Xingci.
Duan Jiayan suppressed the irrational impulse and thought about it very logically.
“Father Lu.” Duan Jiayan lightened his voice and even used honorifics: “Would you please bite me?”
“…”
Lu Xingci didn’t think that Duan Jiayan would use this method.
“Just once; it’ll be quick.”
“…”
After more than ten seconds of staring at the expectant eyes, Lu Xingci glanced away and his voice was a little low: “Do you know what the effects of a temporary mark are?”
Once an alpha marks an omega, whether it be temporary or lifelong, instinct will make them have a strong desire to protect and control that omega, and this possessiveness may even make the alpha lose their mind.
“I think,” Duan Jiayan saw that Lu Xingci had the intention to back out, so he sincerely touted: “with your determination, you will not be affected by instinct, after all, you are such an excellent person.”
“…” Lu Xing took a look at him. After a moment of consideration, he raised his lips slightly and smiled with an unknown meaning: “Come on then.”
As soon as he heard his response, Duan Jiayan’s eyes lit up.
Duan Jiayan pulled off his jacket and was about to swiftly undress his shirt. He was in a stance that made this seem like a blitzkrieg strategy*.
*t/n: basically a strategy to achieve quick victory (used in war)
Lu Xingci’s words interrupted him: “Go to the bathroom.”
He began to think that Duan Jiayan’s late change wasn’t a bad thing. Otherwise, according to the other party’s dense character, he doubted that Duan Jiayan could live well to this age.
Duan Jiayan’s hands stopped and his face displayed a look saying “why are you so troublesome”. Lu Xingci looked at him and felt the illusion that he himself became the omega waiting to be marked.
Hospital washroom.
The smell of disinfectant permeated the whole room, making the room seem damp. Lu Xingci locked the door.
“Turn your back towards me and support yourself with the wall.”
“No need.” Duan Jiayan said, turning around, “I can stand firmly.”
Lu Xing did not insist on his words; his eyes fell on Duan Jiayan.
The neck of the omega has a delicate and smooth texture. A bit lower is the boy’s thin shoulders.
Both Duan Jiayan’s hair and eye color are very light. When he was a sophomore, the grade director thought he dyed his hair and asked Duan Jiayan to dye his hair black again. His skin is also a limpid white as if the whole person was lacking pigment.
The closer he is, the stronger the scent of omega pheromones is.
Duan Jiayan waited for a long time but did not feel the other side bite down. When Lu Xingci stood this close to him, the temperature and breath of the other person felt particularly present.
He couldn’t help urging: “Why haven’t you… Uwa!”
At the moment of the other side’s bite, Duan Jiayan’s whole body froze. He subconsciously struggled and could not help jabbing his elbow backward.
The person behind him was already on guard. Lu Xingci forcefully grabbed his wrist and clasped his restless hand. In order to prevent Duan Jiayan from attacking again, Lu Xingci locked both hands behind his back.
Duan Jiayan realized that alpha and omega really had such a difference in physical strength.
At least when marking, Lu Xingci can easily control him with only one hand.
The marking process lasted for a long time, and Duan Jiayan’s brain began to heat up as a physiological reaction.
When the mark was about to be completed, Lu Xingci injected the pheromone into his gland for the last time.
Duan Jiayan slightly widened his eyes.
He could feel that at the moment of leaving, the tip of Lu Xingci’s tongue had intentionally, or otherwise, licked him.
Duan Jiayan: “!”
This idea, coupled with the impact of the completion of the mark, made Duan Jiayan’s leg go soft and almost fall.
Lu Xingci caught him just in time.
The guy’s voice coming from behind carried a light tone and a smile.
“Didn’t I tell you to support yourself with the wall?”
When Duan Jiayan returned home, Fu Yuan was already at home.
Fu Yuan saw him shuffling around with his slippers and poured himself a glass of ice water.
“I heard from your Uncle He. Did you go out with your classmates?”
Duan Jiayan responded he didn’t want to tell Fu Yuan that he had a stress disorder and the only one who could help him was Lu Xingci. Otherwise, knowing Fu Yuan’s character, not only must she worry, but she may also take him to Lu’s house to thank him.
Duan Jiayan looked back: “Mom, I want to live on campus starting next month.”
Fu Yuan was stunned, and then frowned slightly: “if you live on campus, can you get used to it?”
“Song Yi also lives on campus. He’s the only one living in their dormitory and there are three empty beds. I want to live there. “
“But your Uncle He’s house…”
“I might not be used to living with Uncle He.” Duan Jiayan stared down at the water he’s drinking.
Fu Yuan licked her lips: “Ah, I’m worried. You’ve never lived in a dormitory, and if you live on campus now, I really can’t understand what you would do.”
“…”
Seeing that he didn’t speak, Fu Yuan sighed inwardly.
She knew that since her remarriage, there had been more or less a gap between her husband and her eldest son. Now that the child has grown up and knows that he has a new family, he quietly chooses to leave.
Fu Yuan was a little distressed but she couldn’t bear to press him. She said softly, “Aren’t you about to take the monthly exam? If your monthly test results are better than before, you can live on campus. “
Duan Jiayan’s eyes brightened when he saw her lose her words. He looked at Fu Yuan and decided to explore his mother’s terms first: “How well do you want me to do in the exam?”
Fu Yuan thought about it. She didn’t have much to demand for Duan Jiayan’s studies. She only hopes to use learning to distract Duan Jiayan’s attention and make him behave a little bit, so as not to cause trouble.
“How about scoring at least number fifty from the bottom?” Fu Yuan asked for something that could not even be counted as a request. “You could even score as the fifty-first from the bottom.”
Duan Jiayan thought for a moment: “This really is too difficult.”
“…”
Tomorrow is a school day and the school is full of alphas. In order to verify whether Lu Xingci’s mark is reliable, Duan Jiayan made a phone call with Shen Chilie and asked him to wait for him in front of his house.
Duan Jiayan and Shen Chilie lived in the same community and sometimes they would go home together. As soon as they met, Duan Jiayan gave Shen Chilie a hug. Shen didn’t ask him why. He cooperated and opened his arms: “Son! Dad’s here to hug!”
Duan resisted the impulse to kick Shen Chilie to death. He reached out, pinched Shen Chilie’s shoulder, and touched his neck.
Shen Chilie: “…”
Shen Chilie: “…Son, what are you doing?”
Shen Chilie: “Did you suddenly realize my beauty and greatness after you became an o, and decide to come into dad’s broad arms?”
Duan Jiayan was too lazy to care about him. He rubbed against him several times.
Shen Chilie: “Even if it’s you, you can’t mess around like this.”
The pheromone of Shen Chilie is not offensive to him. It seems that Lu Xingci’s mark is quite useful.
Duan Jiayan raised his eyelids: “Okay, you can go fuck off now.”
When Shen Chilie saw that he had finished speaking, he really turned around and left. For a moment, he felt like he was being used up and thrown away: ” Duan Jiayan, am I your fucking uncle! In the middle of the night, you told me to come here and I come here. Now you tell me to go back and I go back? “
Duan Jiayan looked back and revealed an inhuman smile: “What do you want then? Do you want to mess around with me?”
Shen Chilie was beat shaken by his smile: “No, I can’t. I’m guessing the alpha who can control you hasn’t been born yet.”
“It’s good that you know.” Duan Jiayan turns around lazily, suddenly remembers something, and turns back to look at him: “See you tomorrow, my obedient son.”
“…” Seeing that he especially had to take advantage of this joke, Shen Chilie gave a sound of acknowledgment that contained some humor.
Having resolved the uncertainty, Duan Jiayan slept very well that night.
On Monday morning, the flag-raising ceremony was held as usual.
The monthly exam was soon to take place. Waiting for the flag-raising ceremony to begin, many students held their pocket notebooks to memorize important knowledge points.
Duan Jiayan is mixed in the crowd. He doesn’t know if it’s a psychological effect but he keeps on feeling a little pain in his body.
This feeling appears from time to time: sometimes it’s present, sometimes it’s not. He wonders if he is thinking too much. Song Yi next to him suddenly taps him.
“Brother, look, it’s your goddess.”
Duan Jiayan looks up and sees the students of the art class passing by them. Jiang Qinian’s school uniform is covered with a sweater. She has her long hair covering her shoulders today, making her appear very gentle.
Duan Jiayan smiled at Jiang Qinian, who waved to him.
Just after waving, the girl next to Jiang Qinian, “since I know that Duan Jiayan is an omega, I don’t think he is that violent.”
Jiang Qinian smiled: “His temper wasn’t so bad originally, was it?”
Several other girls also followed the discussion:
“I saw him beat Du Xuchen so badly there was blood that day. But when I consider that he’s an omega, I think he’s actually… a little cute? “
“Nian Nian, you have to think about it; omegas are rare. You can brag about dating an omega for a whole year.”
“Brag what brag,” Jiang Qinian and laughed: “If I fall in love with someone, it’ll only be because I like them. It would have nothing to do with gender.”
After the students of the art class left, the pain in Duan Jiayan’s body was not reduced, rather, the burning sensation came from his neck. It seems that there may be some redness.
Since an omega’s glands are located on the neck, the neck skin is most sensitive to pheromones. Duan Jiayan realized that his stress disorder might have been triggered again.
There were too many people on the sports court and everyone stood close together. In just the small area near Duan Jianyan, there were four or five alphas alone.
He subconsciously looked for the figure of Lu Xingci, who stood not far behind him. Duan Jiayan wanted to call his name but suddenly realized that he shouldn’t.
Even if Lu Xingci knows that he is not feeling well, should he grab Lu Xingci by the hand in front of everyone, or ask for a hug?
He doesn’t think so.
……
Oh, right.
Duan Jiayan suddenly remembered from his research that using items contaminated with alpha pheromones can also relieve symptoms. He could find a way to borrow Lu Xingci’s school uniform.
He was about to turn around when he suddenly saw the grade director walking over with a discipline committee member to class 10.
The grade director, Jiang, is a middle-aged man who enforced school rules. He asked to write down the names of the students who didn’t wear school uniforms and told those students to step out to the side.
Someone nearby muttered: “Old Jiang is picky today. Those who didn’t wear the school uniform were all called to run five laps as punishment. Those in class one have already started running.”
Song Yi subconsciously turned his head to look at Duan Jiayan.
Sure enough, he didn’t wear a school uniform.
Duan Jiayan snorted.
Not wearing a school uniform has already become a habit of his. If he was wearing a school uniform, perhaps he could swap it with Lu Xingci’s. But since he was just so clever today, he feels too embarrassed to ask Lu Xingci for his school uniform.
Why doesn’t he just escape then?
Director Jiang is just behind the line of students of class 10, so if he slips away, the director will surely catch him.
Duan Jiayan was a little annoyed. He considered that he could go run the laps anyway, since there are so few people on the track.
While he was thinking about it,
A school uniform was placed over him.
Duan Jiayan looked to the side by reflex. Lu Xingci did not speak, and after giving his school uniform to him, he turned and walked to the end of the line of students of class 10.
Lu Xingci’s school uniform was full of his pheromone. Wrapped in the smell of Lu Xingci, Duan Jiayan’s tight nerves gradually began to relax.
Duan Jiayan couldn’t tell what the smell was, but it should have a scent of grass mixed with a bit of clean and refreshing sourness.
It was like a lemon-stained forest sprinkled with a thin layer of snow.
Song Yi watched as Lu Xingci put the school uniform on Duan Jiayan and walked straight to the line of students who were sent off to run laps as punishment.
Song Yi stared. He couldn’t help but ask:
“The class president, what… is the meaning of this?”
