As a B+ level Alpha, Marquez rarely receives such rejections.

And also because of a Beta!

He was a little embarrassed, but he was worried about leaving a good impression on Xie Quan, so he still maintained his demeanor and said: "That's really a pity, so let's meet again next time, next time we must Leave it to me." As he spoke, he smiled at Xie Quan with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Xie Quan: "..."

Ji Cheying had a smile on his face, but watched Marquez leave with cold eyes. He was about to turn around and tell the little Beta to be careful when he saw Xie Quan walk out of the room door, and then slammed the door closed.

Ji Cheying asked, "Are you going out?"

Xie Quan looked at him suspiciously, "Didn't you say you were going to eat?"

Ji Cheying was silent. At first he wanted to explain that what he just said was just an excuse to get out of the siege, but when he met Xie Quan's eyes, he immediately thought of the other person's life experience.

He actually took his casual excuses seriously.

So innocent, no wonder he was bullied like this by his uncle's family.

Was also bullied at school.

Seeing that there are no friends and no family, it must have been a long time since I had dinner with anyone.

Thinking about it, his eyes unconsciously brought a kind and affectionate feeling.

He said softly, "Okay, let's go eat."

Xie Quan didn't know why, but the other party's expression was a little disgusting, a bit like Anna.

Ji Cheying was going to start a business by himself tonight. After so many days of takeaway, he was really tired, so he went to buy some ingredients.Fortunately, he bought it for a few days for convenience, otherwise there would be no Xie Quan's meal tonight.

The two came to Ji Cheying's apartment together. Before opening the door, Ji Cheying quickly went through it in his mind. There were no items that would reveal his true identity, and then he opened the door with confidence.

After being invited in, Xie Quan found that the apartment was very clean and there were very few items, just like a model room.

However, he frowned sensitively.

His glands became hot uncontrollably, a physiological reaction like blushing.

Although it is very slight, there is still a little Alpha pheromone left in this room.

He could even recognize that it was a smell of burning flames. Even though it was diluted a lot by the air, the strong sense of aggression still existed.

Xie Quan glanced at Ji Cheying suspiciously.

But Ji Cheying didn't have any smell. Looking at Ji Cheying's figure with his back turned to him, his eyes searched the back of the other's neck, but he didn't find any trace of glandular sticking.

He is indeed a Beta.

Maybe it was left by Ji Ming's friend.

Xie Quan was on the sofa, fidgeting a little, resisting the urge to grab the glands at the back of his neck, seeing that Ji Cheying had already walked into the kitchen and started packing, he stood up abruptly, walked to the French windows and opened them.

Noticing the movement, Ji Cheying turned her head, "What's wrong?"

Xie Quan let the fresh air wash away some of the pheromone smell that made him restless. It's not that he has never smelled Alpha's pheromone, but it was the first time that he was so restless.

Even, this is the first time he finds Alpha's pheromones a bit attractive.

In the past, he only felt that the smell of those pheromones smelt his nose.

Like bad perfume.

But the smell of burning fire reminded him of the scene of steel being reborn in the flames.

Make people unconsciously addicted.

Xie Quan's voice was calm, "It's a bit boring."

Ji Cheying's movements were nimble, and she made dinner in less than half an hour - tomato and egg noodles, served with a piece of chicken breast and a boiled egg.

Xie Quan sighed in his heart as he looked at the dish that 'Crackling' had been cooking for half an hour.

Although this looks healthy, he prefers to eat less healthy.

Moreover, is the person opposite really full?

Ji Cheying sat down opposite Xie Quan, he didn't feel that this dinner was a bit crude for inviting others to have a meal together.He has worked in the army, and although he can cook, he is not very picky about food.

If it wasn't for Xie Quan's presence, he would have planned to cook a few chicken breasts and sprinkle some pepper on them.

As for whether you are full or not, you can just drink another can of nutritional supplements if you are not full.

"Come on, eat, you're welcome." Ji Cheying handed the chopsticks to Xie Quan's hand.

Xie Quan took the chopsticks, shifted his gaze from the tomato and egg noodles to Ji Cheying on the opposite side, and smiled gratefully, "Thank you."

Ji Cheying was stunned for a moment, looking at Xie Quan from the dense heat, he asked, "Why is your face so red?"

At this moment, Xie Quan's face was a little reddened by the pheromone left in the air. His skin was fair, and even a little blush would be very obvious.

Under the original pale light of the dining table, Xie Quan is like the only color in the gray.

The lights and people are reflected in the eyes, and the face is warm pink.

Xie Quan also knew that he was blushing at the moment, and it wasn't because of the damn pheromone.

But he sensibly knew that this was just a normal physiological phenomenon.

It has nothing to do with his psychology.

So he wasn't flustered or embarrassed at all, and his tone was still as warm as water, "It's a bit hot here."

Ji Cheying thought for a while, then nodded, "It's... hotter here than yours." The basement must be cool.

But it shouldn't be too hot, right?

Not without a central thermostat.

While stirring his own ramen, Ji Cheying looked at Xie Quan's obedient way of eating noodles with his head down. Thinking of Marquez before, he couldn't help but reminded: "That man, you'd better stay away from him."

Xie Quan was chewing the ramen, and it was inconvenient to speak, but his eyes could speak, and he clearly conveyed his doubts.

Ji Cheying gave another slap in the heart.

Xie Quan has never seen anything in the world before, his family background is not good, and he doesn't have many friends around him, so he probably fell for it as soon as he was fooled by Marquez.

He said solemnly: "That person is not a good person. He obviously has other purposes for you. You'd better keep contact with him less, or you will be betrayed easily."

Xie Quan's mouth was empty, he was finally able to speak, and he said, "I know."

Ji Cheying was at a loss for words for a moment, he looked at Xie Quan suspiciously, not quite clear to what extent he knew.

He tapped thoughtfully on the table.

"He's an Alpha with great ambitions, he won't really like a Beta."

Xie Quan frowned disapprovingly, "The logical relationship between these is wrong. Alpha has nothing to do with whether you like Beta or not."

Ji Cheying's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect Xie Quan to be in such a short period of time.

He looked at Xie Quan, as if he had seen the tragic appearance of Xie Quan being abandoned from beginning to end.

But at the end of the day, it's someone else's business.

He didn't know Xie Quan very well, and it was really inconvenient for him to interfere with Xie Quan's decision.

Ji Cheying frowned, and could only choose to remain silent temporarily.

After eating, although Xie Quan was not very willing to come to eat this meal, he still politely helped to clean up, put the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen, Ji Cheying put the bowls and chopsticks into the dishwasher and started it, and the dishwasher There was a subtle electromagnetic sound.

After processing, as soon as Ji Cheying turned her head, she saw Xie Quan staring at the dishwasher.

"What's the matter?" Ji Cheying asked suspiciously, he turned his head to look at the dishwasher again, but found nothing worthy of attention.

Xie Quan looked anxiously at Ji Cheying, then at the dishwasher, thinking in his heart.

To say, or not to say?

It's a bit of a hassle to say it.

But what the other party said helped me a few times and invited me to dinner.

Xie Quan made a decision, he spoke in a leisurely and gentle tone, "Your dishwasher is going to break—"

"boom--"

As soon as Xie Quan finished speaking, the dishwasher let out a whine, and then a wisp of gray smoke floated up, and a large piece of water seeped from the bottom, and it gave up working.

"..."

Ji Cheying looked at Xie Quan with some surprise.

"You're quite accurate in what you say."

The implication is Xie Quan's crow's mouth.

Xie Quan shrugged his shoulders, but he didn't try to explain why he judged it because he heard the sound of electric current.

He just didn't understand, "Where's the smart housekeeper in your apartment?"

Logically speaking, the intelligent system will inspect the electrical equipment in the apartment on a daily basis, and if there is a problem, it will be reported and repaired.

He discovered just now that there is no smart butler in Ji Cheying's apartment.

Because of this, the dishwasher was so broken that it went on strike.

Ji Cheying had already squatted down and opened the dishwasher, he poked his head in, trying to solve the problem.

Hearing Xie Quan's question, he replied: "I don't like to use that thing, so I turned it off."

I don't like to use it as an excuse. The main thing is that he is on a mission and is lurking. This kind of public smart housekeeper is too easy to be hacked, and it is useless to give others an entrance to monitor him.

He does have a military-style encrypted personal smart butler, but it's too ostentatious to use that.

Just don't use anything at all.

Anyway, human beings have also come from the manual era.

Xie Quan watched him fiddling there without any rules, he couldn't help but said, "I'll do it."

Now that the smart housekeeper is turned off, it is impossible to rely on the smart phone to fix it.

Better let him come.

Ji Cheying pulled her head out and looked at Xie Quan with suspicion, "You will?"

"……Let me try."

Xie Quan walked to Ji Cheying's side, bent down in a gesture that could not be refused, and motioned for Ji Cheying to go out and make room for him.

Ji Cheying raised her eyebrows, and pulled back to let her out.

"If it really doesn't work, forget it. I'll send someone over to fix it tomorrow."

Xie Quan stuck his head into the dishwasher, and said in a muffled voice, "Doesn't it cost money to have someone repair it?" Looking at him like that, he can save some money.

Ji Cheying was silent.

At this time, Xie Quan had already found the problem, he pulled out, and then dragged the dishwasher out of the cabinet.He is slender in stature, but not weak in strength. He turned the back of the dishwasher to himself, and Xie Quan asked, "Do you have a screwdriver?"

Ji Cheying handed the screwdriver to Xie Quan from the toolbox.

With tools in hand, Xie Quan looked calmly and focused. He skillfully opened the main unit of the dishwasher, found the faulty circuit, and then fiddled with the conductive wires on the chip in an orderly manner.

In less than 10 minutes, the dishwasher was back to work again.

Xie Quan restored the dishwasher and pushed it back into the cabinet. He wiped the screwdriver carefully, and then said: "It's fine for now, but one part is old and needs to be replaced. I don't have it now. I'll find it when I go back." I'll change it for you later." After the oil stains on the screwdriver were cleaned off, he handed the screwdriver back to Ji Cheying.

Ji Cheying didn't answer, he looked at Xie Quan with meaningful eyes, he smiled and praised: "Your technique is really fast, have you learned about electronic equipment professionally?"

If he remembered correctly, in college, Xie Quan studied history.

The author has something to say:

Xie Quan and Ji Cheying achieved the silver achievement of 'cross-channel communication'
