Kasuga Covenant

???? All this happened so unexpectedly, Zhuo Yiran was only concerned with surprise and denial, and didn't think about anything else at all. Now that he saw the full screen of tigers and wolves in the comment area, he realized something belatedly , a cluster of flames rose above his head, burning his cheeks hot for a while.

????Zhuo Yiran lowered his head, and subconsciously rejoiced inwardly, thanks to the fact that it was already dark, otherwise Lu Chen would be as meticulous as Lu Chen, and he would have seen his red ears in full view.

???? He glanced sideways at Lu Chen with a guilty conscience, only to see that the corner of the other's mouth had a slight curvature.

???? As if being caught doing something bad, Zhuo Yiran instantly became angry: "What are you laughing at?"

???? He thought that with such a tough attitude, Lu Chen would feel guilty to some extent, but he didn't expect that the other party not only did not restrain himself, but looked down at him instead, and replied frankly: "Laughing at you."

???? His calm attitude made Zhuo Yiran even more at a loss, and hurriedly explained to him: "I really just want to buy a box of mints!"

???? "Yeah." Lu Chen agreed lightly, not sure if he believed it or not.

???? As soon as the words fell, there was another comment prompt from "TA Shuo" on the phone. Zhuo Yiran looked down and felt like crying: "Why is this misunderstanding getting bigger and bigger..."

???? "Don't you just want others to misunderstand you?" Lu Chen asked him back.

???? In order to get the No.1 that he has been thinking about, Zhuo Yiran usually likes to show affection, but this time, the degree of shame has exceeded the range that his skin thickness can bear. He is embarrassed and helpless: " It's fine for others to see it, but even grandma..."

???? Speaking of this, Zhuo Yiran remembered something again, and turned to look at Lu Chen, "By the way, how did grandma know 'TA said'?"

???? Lu Chen shook his head: "She never mentioned it to me before."

???? Zhuo Yiran had a bitter face: "Then you wouldn't admit it so positively, would you?"

???? Lu Chen was silent for a while, and then said: "I couldn't bear to see her so happy at that time."

???? Sure enough, it was almost the same as Zhuo Yiran's guess.

???? "She lives alone, and she may be a little lonely at ordinary times." After a long while, Lu Chen said seriously, "So she is always worried about this and that."

???? "But the misunderstandings are accumulating more and more, and there will always be a day when they will be exposed." Zhuo Yiran sighed and asked helplessly, "What are you going to do when the time comes?"

???? "Why expose it?" Lu Chen looked sideways at him.

????Zhuo Yiran blinked his eyes, and was very puzzled by his question: "Even if we can fool her now, the 'contracted couple' event will come to an end."

???? His eyes paused for a few seconds, Lu Chen moved his eyes back to the front again, and his voice sank a little: "We will talk about it at that time."

???? Grandma's house is not too far from Jiangda University. The two of them didn't take the subway, so they walked back side by side.After an unknown amount of time, Lu Chen suddenly said, "I have no blood relationship with grandma."

???? Zhuo Yiran's heart shuddered.

???? He just saw something unusual from grandma's words, but he didn't intend to pry into other people's privates. He didn't expect Lu Chen to tell him so frankly.

???? Lu Chen continued: "I have only had my grandma as a relative since I was a child."

????Zhuo Yiran's footsteps suddenly paused. Although he had made some psychological preparations before, this sentence was something he never thought of.

???? "She seems to have mentioned it to you today," Lu Chen said, "Grandfather, like me, is also underdeveloped glandular function."

???? Because it will not be driven by pheromones, this special alpha and a beta fell in love and spent half of their lives hand in hand; although at that time due to the fertility rate, they failed to conceive offspring, the two lived a happy life happy.

???? Until an unexpected car accident separated them overnight.And one morning not long after, there was an unclaimed baby at the door of the obstetrics and gynecology department.

???? He should have been born soon, but he is healthy and juicy. Obstetricians and gynecologists are very experienced in this area. Just from his appearance, it can be seen that he will be an excellent alpha in the future.

???? It's just that the physical examination showed that his glands had serious congenital developmental problems, and it was probably for this reason that he was abandoned.

???? Congenital glandular hypoplasia is an extremely rare disease, but this may be fate.The obstetrician and gynecologist who was alone took him back home, and raising a child temporarily relieved the grief of losing his spouse, and the two depended on each other until he grew up.

???? "Grandpa's surname is Lu," Lu Chen said, "so she named me Lu Chen."

???? Chen who, treasure also.

???? Grandma always said that he was a treasure given to her by God.

???? Unable to tell whether it was sad or touched, Zhuo Yiran's throat tightened for a while, and even his voice became a little hoarse: "No wonder you are so afraid of her disappointment."

???? "Actually, I don't care at all."

???? Lu Chen paused for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Maybe it's because she has personally experienced the taste of loneliness, so she is always worried that I will be alone."

???? "No." Zhuo Yiran answered him subconsciously, only after he finished speaking did he realize that he didn't understand why he was so determined.

???? "On the contrary, I think this is pretty good," Lu Chen's tone was very indifferent, "I won't be affected by pheromones, so I can freely make my own choices, instead of being like most alphas and omega, Be ruled by instinct for a lifetime.”

???? "My mother often said this when I was young." Zhuo Yiran said.

???? If it wasn't for the one-in-a-million matching degree of pheromones, she would not have been with that man after a short time of acquaintance, and then was abandoned miserably.

????Zhuo Yiran's expression was also very calm, as if he was talking about something ordinary: "I've never met my dad either."

???? At that time, the status of omega was still very low, and various protection systems were not perfect. There were countless omega like Zhuo Fei who were marked for life and then abandoned.

???? After all, an alpha can mark countless omega in its lifetime, but an omega can only be marked by one alpha in its lifetime.

????The price of gland removal surgery is ridiculously expensive, so Zhuo Fei is one of the lucky few after all. In fact, even at the moment, the vast majority of abandoned omegas still have to endure the estrus period for the rest of their lives. Tormented, but unable to find another true love, they often spend their lives in loneliness and pain like this.

???? "So, pheromones may not be a good thing." After a long silence, Lu Chen said, "Is it because of its effect that two people fall in love with each other? It's no different from animals."

Zhuo Yiran thought for no reason of Xiaoqian who tried to seduce Lu Chen with pheromone a few days ago, and then thought of countless omega who were ruthlessly rejected by Lu Chen, and suddenly understood: "So you have been single Until now, it turned out to be because of this?"

???? "I'm not single now." Lu Chen corrected him calmly.

???? "... Cough," Zhuo Yiran was a little caught off guard, subconsciously said, "That's not true."

???? Lu Chen's expression paused, and he stopped talking.

???? "I just think," after a long silence, he opened his mouth again, "true love should go beyond instinct."

???? Zhuo Yiran's heart twitched slightly.

???? "Love has nothing to do with instinct" has always been the purpose of this "contract couple" activity, but Zhuo Yiran, as a steel straight b, can't empathize with the transgender group, so he takes it for granted that this is just a gimmick.

???? But at this moment, when such words came out of Lu Chen's mouth, everything became inexplicably serious.

???? Lu Chen has an arrogant personality and has always been unmoved. Coupled with the gland problem, Zhuo Yiran took it for granted that he was the same as himself, and had no such thoughts at all. He did not expect that deep in his heart , I also have such persistence in feelings.

???? Zhuo Yiran turned his head involuntarily, and found that Lu Chen was looking down at him.

???? The sky was already completely dark, and the roadside lights lit up a dazzling star in Lu Chen's dark pupils, casting a rare soft light on these eyes that were always cold and indifferent in the past.

????Zhuo Yiran has almost never seen such a gentle look on Lu Chen's face. Realizing that these eyes are focusing on him, his heart beats inexplicably faster.

????"you……"

???? They spoke at the same time, and silently silent at the same time.

????Zhuo Yiran couldn't help raising the corners of his lips: "You go ahead."

???? Lu Chen said, "You go first."

???? "... Cough," Zhuo Yiran didn't show politeness to him, "Then you have to promise me first."

???? "What?" Lu Chen looked sideways again, the soft light still shining in his beautiful eyes.

???? Facing such serious eyes, Zhuo Yiran couldn't help but cleared his throat with a guilty conscience: "I told you, don't be angry."

???? Lu Chen slightly raised his eyebrows, and agreed, "Okay."

???? "Even if you want to pursue true love, but..." Zhuo Yiran hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice, and said cautiously, "Not everyone can bear a life without...that or something."

???? Lu Chen was slightly taken aback.

????Seeing that he didn't seem to understand, Zhuo Yiran took out the box of "peppermint candy" from his pocket and shook it at Lu Chen.

???? Lu Chen's originally stretched brows suddenly tightened.

???? "Hey, hey, promise me that you won't be angry," Zhuo Yiran said quickly, "If you're a man, keep your word."

????He is like Grandma Lu, he talks a lot when he is excited, and he often says what he catches without thinking about it.

???? Judging from Lu Chen's reaction, he probably got hit by this sentence.

???? I can also understand, after all, which man can really not care about this kind of problem.

???? As a result, he was still rushing to expose other people's scars. Zhuo Yiran felt that he was too insignificant for a moment, and quickly changed his words: "I was wrong, I was wrong, if you can't do it, you can't do it, people who really like you definitely don't care This."

???? Lu Chen's complexion became even darker.

???? "If you really can't find someone," Zhuo Yiran felt more and more guilty for a while, and patted him on the shoulder, "Can I stay single with you for the rest of my life?"

???? Lu Chen glanced at him slowly again, this time seeing him as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and then carefully changed his words: "Okay, okay, brother Lu is so charming, he must be able to Find true love."

???? Lu Chen took a deep breath, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked in a deep voice: "Who told you it's not enough?"

???? "Ah?" Zhuo Yiran was taken aback, "Didn't you tell me yourself?"

???? Lu Chen didn't speak, but just frowned, making Zhuo Yiran a little uncertain for a while: "Could it be that you... can?"

???? Lu Chen looked away, still pursed his lips tightly, and was stingy with even a word of excuse.

???? "But you won't be stimulated by pheromones," Zhuo Yiran was even more surprised, and he didn't care if Lu Chen was angry, so he asked persistently, "Then why...that?"

???? "... What misunderstanding do you have about me?" Lu Chen's voice dropped another octave.

???? "No, no," Zhuo Yiran blinked, "But you are an alpha, you don't have to have pheromones to..."

???? "As far as your physical knowledge is concerned," Lu Chen turned his head and questioned him unbearably, "How did you get into college?"
