Jun Ye’s laughter this time was genuinely heartfelt, without a hint of insincerity, but the person across from him instantly changed his complexion.
He watched as Fei Xiu’s face visibly flushed, reflexively covering his mouth and nose, his expression becoming panicked and flustered.
Before Jun Yencould understand what was happening, the screen went black, and the other party unilaterally ended the video call.
Jun Ye stared at the blackened screen for a moment, opting not to call back but instead typed: “What happened to you?”
Due to the sudden change, a few droplets of water flowed back from his fingertips towards his arm, and Jun Ye’s gaze followed the movement of the water droplets.

Jun Ye: “…”
He seemed to understand what was going on. This time, the other party was still a little innocent, igniting without even needing any flirting.
There was still no response from the other side, and Jun Ye remembered that the other party seemed to still be on the spacecraft, which made him a bit worried.
Jun Ye turned off the water, hastily wiping off the water marks on his body with a towel, while slipping into some suitable indoor clothing, making preparations with both hands.

After poking for half a minute and still receiving no response, Jun Ye decided to change into his outdoor attire, having loosened the collar of his already loose pajamas. Just as he was about to take them off and put on his outerwear, the screen scrolled down, and a message from the other side popped up.
[Fei Xiu: I’m fine.]
[Fei Xiu: You…]
Fei Xiu had already settled back into the sofa chair, with only his still-warm face and loosened tie indicating his recent embarrassment. Luckily, the spacecraft was set to autopilot; otherwise, it could have been a disaster.
Fei Xiu’s typing paused for a moment. What should he say after “You…”?

His gaze shifted to the Omega’s profile picture, a selfie of an Omega lying on a bed, with a very delicate and cute face.
He had seen this photo when he received the other party’s blind date invitation, and at the time, he thought it was “quite good-looking” in a plain and ordinary way. But now, his mind was filled with the image of the Omega from just now.
—The steam-filled bathroom, the damp Omega smiling at him as he brushed his hair aside. Whether his eyes were closed or open, all he could think of was the Omega’s appearance, with the smiling eyes, the upturned corners of the mouth, the droplets sliding down his body… and the two red spots on his chest.
Looking back at the photo, the image that came to mind was also of the Omega lying on the bed with his clothes stripped away, silently inviting him…
On the other side, the Omega sent a question mark.

Fei Xiu shook his head, tossing those sinful images out of his mind, and upon seeing the question mark from the Omega, he fell into silence.
What could he say?
Should he say… you should learn to protect yourself? Can’t just accept random video calls like that? Or should he say I’ll take responsibility for you?
He had indirectly taken advantage of the Omega just now, so saying these things would be too hypocritical.
After some thought, [Fei Xiu: I’m sorry for disturbing you just now. My proposal tonight was a bit rushed. You don’t have to feel pressured, and there’s no need to rush to reply. We can spend some time getting to know each other first, let me pursue you.]

Almost as soon as this message appeared on Jun Ye’s terminal, the system panel also popped up.
[Attention, the trigger for the host’s [physiological heat] task is imminent. Please prepare, host.]
Physiological heat?
Jun Ye thought of the awakening of the male Zergs in the Zerg world and subconsciously felt that this was not a good thing.
It seemed that all of his tasks in these worlds had some peculiar settings, which were common knowledge to the natives of these task worlds but strange to him.
So, Jun Ye directly asked Fei Xiu: Do you know what physiological heat is?
The other side replied with two words, “I know,” and Jun Ye waited for a while, but no other content emerged.
Jun Ye: “…”
Can you at least explain what this is!
Jun Ye didn’t want to directly ask, so he changed his approach and said, “My physiological heat is in three days.”
On the other side, Fei Xiu stared at the words on the screen as if trying to bore a hole through them.
After a while, he responded, “Please consider me more. Our compatibility is high, and the relationship between the Fei family and the Jun family has always been good. And also, I… really like you.”
As he looked at the message he had sent, Fei Xiu felt ashamed and wanted to bang his head against the steering wheel.
He had just told the Omega not to feel pressured and that they could spend some time getting to know each other, but now he was urging the Omega to make a decision. It was too hypocritical.
Jun Ye looked at the words that essentially amounted to a self-recommendation, and he roughly understood what this physiological heat was all about. But marriage… he couldn’t just agree to that. What if he ceased to exist except by natural death?
[Jun Ye: Let me think about it. You should go back and rest earlier. Take care on the way.]
Jun Ye scrolled through the emoticon packs on his personal terminal, intending to send something cute, but he found that they were all animated gifs of cute boys. He silently closed the emoticon page, realizing that he would only send those to his significant other.
[Fei Xiu: Okay, goodnight. Sweet dreams.]
[Jun Ye: May the stars guide your dreams.]
Fei Xiu looked at the conversation on the screen, and his trembling fingertips hovered over the screen for a moment before he withdrew his hand and slumped back into the sofa chair, gazing out the window at the starry sky.
—I just hope you’ll come into my dreams.
After exiting the chat page, Jun Ye searched for “physiological heat” to confirm that it only required an Alpha biting and having sex to solve, and that marriage wasn’t a necessary condition, before shutting down the terminal.
You didn’t need to get married to be friends with benefits.
So, Jun Ye added hooking up with Fei Xiu to his schedule.
Over the next three days, Fei Xiu often appeared in front of Jun Ye, bringing gifts and chatting about life.
In Jun Ye’s previous worlds, he had always been the one pursuing relationships, so being pursued by someone else this time felt novel, and he enjoyed watching Fei Xiu fluttering around him.
As for Fei Xiu’s proposals, Jun Ye smiled throughout, neither accepting nor rejecting them, thus keeping the completion rate of the task stable at 1%, without dropping any further.
Even his body’s parents somehow found out about him and Fei Xiu, and as busy interstellar traders, they even took the time to have separate video calls with him.
Both of them expressed that Fei Xiu was a very good partner choice and asked him to consider it carefully.
Jun Ye was very suspicious of what Fei Xiu had done to convince them.
On the fourth day, which was the day of his physiological heat, Fei Xiu arrived exceptionally early, barely past two in the morning, looking like he was staking out.
Jun Ye, still in his pajamas, leaned on the railing of the second-floor balcony, yawning as he asked the other to bring the flowers up.
These past few days, he had been particularly sleepy, and his body always felt weak, as if all his energy had been stored up for the coming heat.
Once Fei Xiu brought the flowers up, Jun Ye sank into the soft single sofa, directing him to tear off the petals and scatter them on the bed.
This was something he had wanted to try in the world of guides and sentinels, but his body was too weak back then, and he never got around to it.
Fei Xiu diligently spread the petals, his palms sweating nervously.
He had a guess about the Omega’s intentions, so he was both hopeful and anxious.
He hoped to consummate his relationship with the person he loved and take a big step forward in pursuing him. But he also feared that the Alpha chosen by the other person might not be him, ending up with disappointment and heartache.
When the last flower petal was spread, Fei Xiu turned around, only to find the Omega curled up on the sofa, already asleep.
Feeling a softness in his heart, Fei Xiu remembered that an Omega in heat needed to replenish a large amount of energy and fluids. He bent down to put the flower stems in the trash and then silently tiptoed downstairs to prepare food and water.
After delivering food twice to the bedside table, he found the remote control and activated the pheromone isolation device in the Omega’s bedroom.
After checking around, Fei Xiu realized that the Omega hadn’t made any preparations for his heat, so he opened his terminal and ordered some absolutely clean bedding and towels.
Omega’s heat could last from as short as two days to as long as a week, and the sheets and blankets would definitely need to be changed midway.
Jun Ye slept for about an hour before slowly waking up, only to find himself covered in Fei Xiu’s coat.
Tsk tsk, in his own bedroom, with blankets and comforters readily available, the other person actually took off his own coat to cover him… Is it stupidity or does it imply something?
Seeing Fei Xiu busy arranging the room while wearing a shirt with rolled-up sleeves, Jun Ye didn’t return the coat and instead placed it on the sofa before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.
After coming out of the bathroom, Jun Ye thought that he would have to undress later anyway, so he decided not to change into pajamas. He joined Fei Xiu in tidying up the room, and then they went downstairs together for dinner.
Very tacitly, neither of them mentioned the matter of physiological heat.
After dinner, they both returned to the bedroom.
Jun Ye slumped on the sofa, while Fei Xiu sat on a chair, and they played a small game together to pass the time.
It wasn’t until Jun Ye suddenly felt his body heating up, accompanied by the appearance of the system panel in front of him.
Ding—
【Triggering task [Physiological Heat]. PS: For the first intimate act, it’s recommended to try the missionary position. Please be careful to protect your knees and elbows, Host.】
Jun Ye: “…”
Sorry, it’s not the first time. You can disappear now.
The system panel disappeared.
Jun Ye closed the terminal, exchanged a glance with Fei Xiu, who had already smelled the pheromones spreading, and then walked to the edge of the bed.
Fei Xiu quickly closed the terminal and followed behind Jun Ye, stopping a half-step behind him.
His hands twitched nervously, instinctively wanting to embrace the enticing smell of the Omega in front of him but fearing to startle the other person.
Jun Ye turned around.
The two stood very close, with Fei Xiu being half a head taller than his body in the absence of those “Omega essential height-increasing shoes”.
Jun Ye reached up and undid Fei Xiu’s tie. With the tie gone, it slid down Fei Xiu’s shirt and fell to the ground, unnoticed by either of them.
Jun Ye took a half step forward, their bodies pressing together.
One pair of arms wrapped around Fei Xiu’s waist, while a hand gently pressed down on his head, and their lips met, igniting a flame.
“Mmm…”
Fei Xiu hugged the Omega in front of him tightly, eagerly responding to the other’s kiss.
It was his first time kissing someone, but it surprisingly felt right, as if the two had already established a physical understanding.
As they kissed, Fei Xiu furrowed his brows slightly in confusion. Why did the Omega seem to enjoy squeezing his buttocks so much?
Lmao you’ll find out soon enough why he likes your touching your butt so much xD
