Shiratori

At the beginning of July, the studio held the graduation ceremony of the spring semester. Everyone happily took a group photo. It happened that a colleague had a birthday that day, so a group of people booed and said they wanted to go out for a gathering.

Most of the people who will come to do this kind of semi-public work are not too old, and they get along very casually with each other. When it comes to dinner, someone will take the lead in finalizing the location, and they will start to take taxis together noisily.Shen Xie looked at the dialog box on the phone that hadn't been heard for a long time. Ye Chen's profile picture was the logo of Ye's company, a very simple line pattern.

He wiped the screen with his thumb, watched the backlight of the conversation list dim, and then turned his head and smiled at the colleague who came to ask him if he would participate: "Well, I will go too."

When Shenxie was invited, it was visible to the naked eye that the girls who went with her were a little happy.Originally, everyone probably knew that Shen Xie already had a partner, but Omega was born young, and the legendary spouse had never been to the studio, so for a group of young people, it might not be much different from the classmates around him.

But it was finally determined that the place for dinner was a little distance from the studio, and it was a restaurant by the river.A group of people ordered a lot of dishes and ate until late, and ordered cakes on the spot to sing birthday songs for the birthday star.

Shen Xie sat among the crowd and watched them booing.Young people are serious and serious as children's teachers at work, but in fact they are still at an age of indulgence. When they meet with their peers, they will let go, and the whole table will have a variety of topics after eating.Later, some people drank and began to yell and play games again. For a while, even the chandelier above their heads seemed to be shaking.

Most of these people are Alpha and Beta, they haven't reached the age that they must get married, and many of them are even students themselves, and they seem to be able to see the golden light flowing in the air when they are lively.

At the beginning, Shen Xie ate slowly with everyone, but later she felt that she sat a little farther away when she got into trouble.

It happened that the place where they ate was a private room facing the river, with a semi-open balcony protruding from the river.At this time, the sky at dusk turns gray-purple in layers and gradients, and you can see the sparkling river water a little bit beyond the crowd, and the lights along the coast also change into flowing shapes in the night.

For a moment, he was also a little dazed, as if the three years between himself and these people were just three years - no marks, no estrus, and no... Ye Chen.

Shen Xie felt a sudden pain in her heart.

When the food was almost finished there, a group of art students came up with a new trick and began to use butter to paint portraits of each other on the table.After all, most of them are from majors, and a few strokes can be drawn very vividly, and a chain of exclamations and laughter is evoked.

Shen Xie looked at it, the strange emotion in her heart hadn't passed, so she couldn't help but wiped the butter on the plate with a plastic fork, and even the lines were so smooth that she didn't need to think, it was very subtle and fast painted portraits.

It was Ye Chen.When she realized this, Shen Xie's heart moved, and she quickly erased the painting on the plate.

No one should have seen it.Shen Xie subconsciously took out her mobile phone to check the time. Ye Chen only came last week, so he probably won't be here tonight. Since graduating from university, he hasn't stayed out so late.

Unexpectedly, at this time, someone came out from behind: "Mr. Shen, why don't you go and play?"

Shen Xie raised her head from her thoughts, it turned out that a new round of truth or dare had started over there.At the beginning, someone jokingly asked the birthday star what wish he had made, and then it naturally transitioned to this party must-have game.

Shen Xie also knew the little girl who came to call him. She was the teacher of the manga group next door. She wore a pair of ponytails at a young age. Shen Xie's first impression of her was because she overheard the topic of the ring that day.

When I think about it, I don't want to participate.

——It’s not that I have any opinions on anyone, but I’m suddenly a little afraid of being asked questions about my partner.

Does he have a partner, who is his partner, is his Alpha... "his Alpha".

But how to refuse.Shen Xie was a little hesitant, the person who came to invite him also seemed to be smiling, and there were several girls behind her winking at her.

Shen Xie couldn't help sighing, these people made it so obvious, but they didn't have any malicious intentions, and they couldn't pretend they didn't see it.

Before he had time to think about how to deal with it, another voice suddenly came in from beside him:

"Mr. Shen has a family. You guys are playing too late. He can't wait to go home."

It was a joking tone, but the voice was relaxed and familiar, and it was Yu Qingran with a casual look.

When Shen Xie came back to her senses, she subconsciously looked over with some gratitude.Leaving aside the teasing tone of the other party, this sentence can not but be said to poke his heart.

"Okay, it's getting late." Yu Qingran said, winking at him, then turned to that side and clapped his hands quickly, "Those who want to go back first, and the rest should just turn around?"

Sure enough, I also got a few echoes, after all, the next day is still a working day.So the group of people quickly divided into two groups, some people went to pay the bill, and the rest crowded around and started to go out.

Shen Xie followed the crowd for a few steps, and before she could take a breath from the feeling similar to the rest of her life just now, she heard Yu Qingran's voice again: "Why are you going back?"

Alpha walked beside him at some point, and asked him naturally: "Come with them, and do you want to ask someone to see you off."

It was a question that was a bit intimate but couldn't find anything wrong with it. Shen Xie thought about it for a while and answered: "Go to the front and take the subway."

Lian Shui Wan lives in the outskirts of the city. He usually walks to work in the studio. Today, everyone gathers in the urban area, which is a little far away from where he lives.

At the beginning, he carpooled with everyone, but now he is on a different road from everyone else.

Ye Chen originally positioned the villa where he lived temporarily as a residential area that favored high-end consumers. Residents usually have private cars to travel in and out, but it is separated from the subway station by a certain distance.

While hesitating, he heard Yu Qingran say again: "Should I go back alone, or call your family and ask him to pick it up."

"No need." Upon hearing this, Shen Xie immediately refused without thinking, and became nervous once she said the words, "It's okay... I'll just go back by myself."

The person in front of him obviously disagreed: "You have an Omega night..."

"It doesn't matter." Shen Xie quickly shook her head, while speeding up her pace and keeping a distance from the laughing colleagues around her, she lowered her eyes and carefully defended, "He's very busy, I'll just go back by myself."

When they walked into the subway station together at the end, Yu Qingran still had a worried expression, probably because he had never seen an Alpha like Ye Chen, and the way of getting along with AO was quite different from what he imagined.

Immediately after seeing the entrance that Shen Xie had chosen, he hesitated to speak.

Shen Xie knew the reason. Few people took this line connecting the suburbs, and the direction he took ran counter to most residential areas.

"Anyway, make a phone call when you get home." Yu Qingran insisted on taking him to the car all the way, still muttering, "Why doesn't Alpha's wife come to pick you up when she comes home at night-hey, why don't I see you off!"

Shen Xie heard half a sentence at first, and felt a little angry, but when the subway door closed, Yu Qingran had already stepped in, so she suddenly remembered the blind date that the other party mentioned in Moments.

Although Brother Qing is not very good at talking, and seems to be a bit big-A doctrine, and probably can't fit in with his current life, but he still helped himself a lot.

If you really get married, it should be the kind of A that will be good to your Omega.

So if it is an ordinary AO couple, from a blind date to falling in love and then getting married, if Omega goes out, Alpha will definitely come to pick him up.

It was already completely dark when I got off the subway, and there was still some distance to go back to the villa area. Shen Xie walked slowly along the street, feeling a little funny for a moment.

Now that he has met Ye Chen, how can he be the same as other "ordinary" Alphas and Omega.

Ye Chen was not an ordinary person from birth, and neither was he.

They are the antonyms of a group of people who met each other by accident. If intimacy means torture, it is his own willing choice.

There was still a bustling market outside the terminal station of the subway, and the lights and crowds gradually thinned out after passing through several intersections. Shen Xie checked the direction on the map on her phone, and there were still two turns to arrive.

"You don't need to see me off." He thought of the Alpha who was still by his side, and quickly raised his head to thank him, "Just get here."

Shen Xie felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, I made you take so many detours."

He was really embarrassed at this time, he was a little absent-minded from the dinner just now to the second half, and because of a sentence, he got himself in. They didn't chat much when they came all the way, but they could still feel that Yu Qingran used He looked at himself several times with probing eyes.

In the end, there were only two people left in the empty carriage. It was not until the subway reached the terminal that Yu Qingran jumped off the train with him.

This place is so remote, it will be very late if you return to the city later.

"It's all delivered here, and it's not too late." Yu Qingran joked, "You are Jingui's Omega."

It was probably an unintentional joke, but Shen Xie couldn't help being stunned when she heard it.

Brother Qing... Did you see something?

For some reason, he realized belatedly that he really didn't want Yu Qingran to know about Ye Chen.

Whether he wanted to go home by himself at the beginning, or he wanted to say goodbye to the other party here at the moment, these subconscious actions have explained the problem more clearly than the sudden escape when they first met in the studio.

Although he knew intellectually that Brother Qing was not familiar with his current situation at all, and he probably only regarded Ye Chen as an A who didn't care much about his Omega, but he still couldn't help but have some secret worries in his heart.

They were not Omega when they met before, and they reunited after a long absence, and it happened to be at the point when Shen Xie wanted to find a job independently. desire to separate.

But backfired is probably how the term is used.

Before Shen Xie could say anything more, a familiar black car suddenly stopped nearby.

Whether Ye Chen goes to the company or goes out to do errands on weekdays, a driver drives an official car. This Volkswagen Phaeton is not too ostentatious, it is a car for private time. Shen Xie has seen him drive to Lian Shui Wan Residence several times.

The car window was lowered, and Alpha's recognizable face was exposed from inside.

However, Ye Chen's tone was as cold as ice:

"boarding."
