After I Wrongly Chose the Strongest Alpha in the Galaxy on a Blind Date!! - Chapter 24
Chapter 24 – Heat
After knowing that Lin Jing’s wound could not heal, Ji Anli asked the system and found out that there was medicine, but it required a healing value of 200 points to redeem the amount for one application.
Although the healing medicine is expensive, the system says it was useful and would definitely produce immediate results, so he just calculated in the bathroom that only four tasks were needed.
He had completed three of them, adding up to 140 touch points, plus the 60 touch points of 【Hand and Foot Offset】, which is just enough to redeem once, and Lin Jing’s wound could be healed tonight. Who knew that when there was only one task left, Lin Jing would turn back into his human form.
Ji Anli was originally immersed in the joy of petting the furry creature, but suddenly the joy was gone and the big furry
turned into Admiral Lin.
Before changing back, Ji Anli was still holding the snow wolf’s furry paw, but the next moment it was completely hairless. He subconsciously rubbed it with his fingertips and clearly felt that Lin Jing’s whole body was stiff.
Ji Anli suddenly came to his senses and withdrew his hand with regret: “I am very calm now. Of course, if you don’t want to, I have no problem with that.”
After saying that, he let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to say something more but stopped himself. Finally, he lay back down obediently, his eyelashes trembling. HHe pulled the quilt to his chest, folded his hands on his chest, and lay there straight. If you didn’t know better, you would have thought he was a corpse.
Lin Jing regretted it when he saw the disappointment in Ji Anli’s eyes after he turned back, but when he thought about how the other party almost kissed his ear just now, he was not afraid that Ji Anli would really do something to him. He was afraid that his willpower was not strong enough.
But saying this to an Omega was tantamount to blatant teasing, even if the person in front of him was his legally licensed partner.
Lin Jing hesitated for a while, and finally chose the former between not disappointing Ji Anli and worrying about not being able to control himself. If he couldn’t even control this, what was the difference between him and an animal? Perhaps this was not only a test of Ji Anli’s habit of touching and comforting, but also a test of his willpower. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be even more difficult for him to remain calm in the future when they had closer contact?
Then, Lin Jing turned back into a snow wolf and placed his big paws on the side of Ji Anli’s face.
Ji Anli suppressed the upward curve of his lips. Although they had only known each other for a few days, he had already seen through Admiral Lin. He was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Not to mention that he had confessed to him about his hidden illness before the marriage. Since Admiral Lin had agreed, he would definitely not go back on his word.
But in case Lin Jing was suspicious, he still made a detour, opened his eyes a little, and pretended not to know: “Hey, why did you change back again? Didn’t you want to calm down? Is this the case tonight?”
In response to him, Lin Jing moved his big head closer, as if he was ready and would not stop Ji Anli no matter what he did next.
Ji Anli looked at his determined eyes, especially his focused and serious beast eyes. When he got closer, it seemed as if his deep eyes could only see Ji Anli at the moment.
How could Ji Anli bear being stared at by a furry creature like that? He turned sideways and looked at Lin Jing… He sniffed and indeed, he could still smell blood if he smelled carefully. This guy was quite patient. Who knew how he did it? If he pulled apart the fur on his back, could he see the wound that was still bleeding?
Thinking of that scene, Ji Anli was reluctant to delay: “Let’s play one more game tonight to get used to it and then end it, okay? But will you follow what I say?”
Lin Jing nodded obediently. Because his fur was too fluffy, Ji Anli stared at his hair trembling under the light as he moved.
Ji Anli looked away with difficulty, then stretched out his hands with his palms open facing Lin Jing.
Lin Jing was puzzled by his actions, but he also obediently imitated Ji Anli’s actions and faced sideways, stretching out his two large snow-white claws. Probably to cooperate with Ji Anli, he also studied the distance between Ji Anli’s palms and put his claws there.
Then he felt a pressure on his palms, and Ji Anli bounced his hands over and pressed the claws of Lin Jing’s two forelimbs against each other.
Lin Jing’s wolf eyes were completely attracted by Ji Anli’s slender white fingers. He stared in a trance at the palms of the man and the wolf touching each other. His mind was blank. He couldn’t even think about why Ji Anli did this. He could only stare.
Ji Anli had been paying attention to Lin Jing’s movements, because he was imitating him by bending his palms and stretching them to the side. Ji Anli was in human form so his legs could be straight or bent, and the thin blanket made it difficult to see clearly, so Lin Jing didn’t see his movements clearly at all.
Ji Anli watched as the snow wolf spread out its front limbs because of this difficult move, and its hind limbs couldn’t help but face its palms towards him. He secretly stretched out the soles of his feet, bent his legs unexpectedly, and put the soles of his feet against the snow wolf’s hind limbs.
At the moment of contact, Ji Anli was so focused on the voice of the system in his head that he didn’t notice that the Snow Wolf was completely frozen there, using all his willpower to control himself from reacting.
Lin Jing didn’t dare to move at all. He felt that he had never felt time pass so slowly in his life. But he couldn’t feel the slightest bit of unhappiness. It even flashed through his mind that it was not impossible to stay like this. His eyes moved downwards, staring at Ji Anli’s outstretched feet. The toes were round, and it was probably difficult to touch them. He couldn’t help but scratch them with his toes, and instantly got closer.
When Lin Jing the wolf stayed there without daring to move, Ji Anli counted ten times but heard no movement, and laughed angrily: 【Don’t play dead, hurry up, the first three tasks were completed literally and rewarded, and now this brotherhood has lasted for so long, give out the reward quickly. 】
He felt like his toes were about to cramp. Would the system still work?
The system was about to cry: 【Host, is this really okay for you? Companion, touch, mission, listen to the name of this mission, look at what you have done? You also know that you are taking it literally? Is this what our mission means?】 Rubbing ears together can’t really be just rubbing ears and touching faces, right? Is this reasonable? Is this appropriate?
Ji Anli: 【You just wrote four words to save trouble, so you can tell me whether I completed the task literally?】
What responded to Ji Anli was the system’s silence, which was more powerful than words.
Ji Anli was not in a hurry and continued counting. After he counted three again, he heard a ding-dong sound of gold coins exploding. Oh no, it was the sound of the touch value being credited to the account.
As soon as he got the 200 touch points, Ji Anli immediately withdrew his hands and feet. If he was a second late, he felt that his toes would twitch, so he simply pulled his feet back into the blanket and rubbed them together vigorously, while also urging the system to convert the touch points into healing points and give him the medicine.
While Ji Anli was busy with a storm in his brain, the snow wolf next to him still maintained its original posture and stared at him blankly. It was not until Ji Anli got the healing ointment from his pocket that he remembered his ignored and quiet partner.
Turning his head, he found that the snow wolf was still lying on all fours facing him. Ji Anli was really afraid that his claws would twitch, so he quickly reached out to put them down for him and rubbed them one by one: “Why are you still holding them up? I was thinking about something just now and forgot. The game is over, you can change back.”
After saying that, he looked at Lin Jing expectantly, waited for several seconds and blinked when he saw that the other party did not respond. Hurry up, he was still waiting for the other party to change back and give him the ointment.
Lin Jing looked at Ji Anli, whose eyebrows and eyes were full of energy and shining as if he had absorbed a lot of yang energy. It was him who just told him to change into the second form, and it was also him who asked him to change back into human form quickly… So what happened in between that he didn’t know?
Although Lin Jing was full of doubts, he still changed back, but he kept his eyes downcast and his deep pupils didn’t look at Ji Anli. Before he could say anything else, Ji Anli took out a small tube of unpackaged ointment from his shirt pocket and handed it to him: “Oh, you see, I almost forgot. I found a tube of ancestral ointment when I was packing my luggage. I don’t know if it will work on your injury. Do you want to try it?”
Lin Jing seemed to be used to his frequent changes of subject, and thought that Ji Anli was trying to ease the ambiguous atmosphere, so he nodded lightly and took over.
Ji Anli watched him put the ointment back into his original skin pocket. He was so curious about the buttoned-up snow-forged clothes. He wondered what it felt like to touch. Wasn’t it amazing that he had orc genes? Would it feel furry to the touch?
Ji Anli suppressed his restless hand and said, “Why don’t you try it out?”
Lin Jing had long been accustomed to being hurt, and didn’t know how to comfort Ji Anli that the ointment might not be useful.
Facing Ji Anli’s expectant look, he was afraid that he would be disappointed. HeHe thought about applying it again tomorrow and telling Ji Anli that it was useful.
But before he could speak, Ji Anli spoke first: “You can’t reach your back, right? How about… I help you?”
It was just right for him to take a look at the feel of the original skin. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. He looked at Lin Jing with anticipation.
Lin Jing responded with a very light and urgent “No thanks”, then got off the bed and said, “I can just apply it myself in the bathroom downstairs.”
Ji Anli looked at his speed of disappearance, which was almost as fast as lightning: ? ?
Is this an illusion? Are you running too fast?
If one didn’t know, one might think he wanted to do that to him by applying medicine. Is he that kind of person?
Ji Anli had completed the task of obtaining the points in advance and had given the ointment to Lin Jing. He was not worried about the poor effect. In addition, he did not know whether it was because the night was too tense and full of ups and downs, but he was really sleepy and fell asleep unknowingly.
When he woke up the next day, it was already bright outside. He opened his eyes and woke up from a nap. Then he looked around and found that no one was there.
He didn’tHe didn’t know whether Lin Jing overslept or left early in the morning, or whether he didn’t come back because he was afraid of disturbing him.
Ji Anli didn’t have classes in the morning and was not in a hurry. He got up, changed his clothes, washed up, and went downstairs in high spirits. He didn’t see Lin Jing. He opened his bracelet and saw the star message left by Lin Jing: 【Sorry, I received a temporary mission and have to go out. Before leaving, I told Jie Lie and the other person next door, and they will keep an eye on your movements to protect your safety.】
Ji Anli glanced at the time and it was two o’clock in the morning. Lin Jing didn’t mention anything about the medicine, so he didn’t know whether he had applied it or not. But looking at the time, it should have been not long after he applied it when he received the mission. He didn’t pay any attention to the healing process at all, so he put on his clothes and hurried out on the mission.
Thinking of Lin Jingdeng’s shocked expression when he turned around and found that his wound had healed, he couldn’t help but feel very happy and smiled. Now he should be able to believe that his ancestral prescription can really cure his poison, right?
Ji Anli tidied up and went downstairs, just wanting to make some breakfast. But as soon as he came down the stairs and stood in the living room on the first floor, his heart suddenly beat violently a few times, and he almost instantly felt a heat all over his body.
This situation is very similar to the first time when he was chased by gangsters in the alley and had a fever, but it’s not the monthly fever period yet. Is his disorder coming early?
