Chapter 20 – Leaving Quietly
Sheng Yang woke up in the faint scent of sandalwood. There was no one around him, but the lingering fragrance of Pei Chuan was still there.
If Pei Chuan could have any pheromones, it should be sandalwood.
Sheng Yang hugged the quilt, rolled around on the bed twice with red ears and shy eyes.
Pei Chuan actually invited him to sleep with him last night. Could it be that he actually likes him a little bit?
Sheng Yang’s eyebrows were curved.
He didn’t know why, but recently he always liked to smell Pei Chuan’s scent. He felt at ease whenever he smelled it.
Sheng Yang decided to stay in bed for a while.
He lay on the bed, his legs crossed and swaying slightly. When he opened his phone and was about to share the good news with Jiang Shu, a piece of news suddenly caught his attention.
Sheng Yang’s pupils shrank slightly as he saw the headline clearly read: [The President of Pei Group is suspected of marrying the popular young actor Sheng Tianci.]
Many people in the comment section made unfounded speculations, and someone even posted a photo of Sheng Tianci secretly going to the airport to pick Pei Chuan up on the day he returned to China.
Sheng Yang’s face turned pale instantly.
He didn’t know these things.
Sheng Yang knew that these things might not be true, but he still couldn’t stop thinking about them.
If it was true, then what was he and Pei Chuan like now?
Sheng Yang tried to calm himself down. He knew that Pei Chuan was not that kind of person.
Before Sheng Yang could prepare himself mentally, the doorbell downstairs rang.
Sheng Yang put on his slippers absentmindedly and went downstairs to open the door.
Pei Chuan would occasionally ask somebody to deliver some fresh fruits and vegetables, so Sheng Yang opened the door without thinking too much. However, he was completely stunned when he saw the face of the person outside.
Sheng Tianci was wearing a low baseball cap, revealing only his palm-sized face. He was also shocked at the moment.
He was stunned for two seconds, then returned to his usual domineering and arrogant demeanor: “Why is it you? Why are you at Brother Pei Chuan’s house?”
Sheng Yang’s lips were pale and his heart was in turmoil. He couldn’t give an explanation for a while.
Sheng Tianci looked him up and down.
He was wearing comfortable and neat pajamas, and his hair was a little messy from sleeping. It was obvious that he had lived there for a long time.
The thought of this made him furious.
Why?
Why is it that Sheng Yang could get Pei Chuan more easily than him, whether in the past or now?
Why was it that Pei Chuan had only been back for less than two months, and Sheng Yang could naturally live in his house? Sheng Tianci had never received such treatment.
Sheng Tianci was so angry that he said in a very rude tone, “Okay, you want to run away from home and come live with Brother Pei Chuan? Do you have any shame?”
Sheng Yang felt as if someone was gripping his heart tightly. It was so painful that he couldn’t speak.
He was a little afraid of Sheng Tianci. From childhood to adulthood, he had lived under the shadow of Sheng Tianci’s violence. Sheng Yang knew that he shouldn’t be like this, but he still couldn’t help but retreat.
Sheng Tianci knocked his shoulder away and walked into the house with a swagger.
Seeing the cute little pillows and slippers on the sofa, and seeing that all household items came in pairs, made him even angrier.
It was not something Pei Chuan would use.
He spent a lot of money to find Pei Chuan’s residential address, but he found that his younger brother, whom he had always looked down upon, actually lived there in a high-sounding manner.
”Shameless.” He said viciously, “Have you forgotten that you’re going to be engaged to He Jingnian in a month?”
Sheng Yang clenched his hands tightly, his nails almost digging into his flesh.
Of course he knew, but he had been living so peacefully recently that he almost forgot about it.
And… maybe this was just something they said casually, and the engagement didn’t actually exist.
Sheng Tianci stared at him fiercely with his sharp eyes and continued, “I knew that all your obedience was just an act, right? Otherwise, why would you be hanging out with someone else when you’re already engaged?”
His words were so harsh that Sheng Yang wanted to refute him but didn’t know how to start.
The series of developments between him and Pei Chuan were indeed not presentable.
”I don’t…”
He retorted in a low voice.
”Nothing, nothing? How dare you, a piece of shit like you who’s only fit to be played with by He Jingnian, come and harass Pei Chuan?”
Sheng Tianci was so jealous that he was going crazy and started to attack with the most vicious words.
He had been spoiled by his parents and brother since he was a child. What had he not gotten?
He had always looked down on guys like Sheng Yang.
He looked at Sheng Yang’s beautiful face, feeling even more jealous, and continued, “What’s the point of a low-level Alpha like you pestering Pei Chuan? What can you give him?”
Sheng Yang moved his lips, but in the end he said nothing.
His reaction pleased Sheng Tianci very much. He sneered and said, “What can you give Brother Pei Chuan? His company has been in trouble recently and can’t run smoothly. Are you going to be a vase in the villa every day?”
Hearing this, Sheng Yang was stunned for a moment, and frowned slightly: “What difficulty?”
Sheng Tianci also raised his eyebrows in surprise: “You don’t know?”
He rolled his eyes and realized, “He didn’t even tell you this?”
Sheng Tianci laughed loudly and said, “It seems that he just treats you as a vase, keeping you for fun. You are a weak Alpha, without reproductive function, and unable to help him solve the problem. He is just playing with you.”
Sheng Yang suddenly lowered his voice and retorted with red eyes: “Impossible.”
He knew very well that Pei Chuan was not such a person, and he would not allow Sheng Tianci to slander Pei Chuan.
”Since you like him, what gives you the right to say that about him?”
This was the first time in more than a decade that Sheng Yang refuted Sheng Tianci.
Sheng Tianci was so angry that his breath got stuck in his throat. He checked the time and snorted, “Believe it or not, I just want to tell you that Pei Chuan is facing great difficulties this time. He has no choice but to marry me.”
He never minded how he got anything.
It was a long time after Sheng Tianci left that Sheng Yang fell onto the sofa, breathing rapidly.
He tried hard to control his trembling hands and opened his mobile phone to search. What caught his eye was that all the shareholders of Pei Group had collectively withdrawn their capital to join He Group, and Pei Group might face bankruptcy.
Pei Chuan never told him this.
Did he subconsciously distrust himself and feel he couldn’t handle the situation?
After thinking about this reason, Sheng Yang felt ridiculous. He really couldn’t do anything except study.
Sheng Tianci’s last words were also lingering in his mind.
So is that true?
Is Pei Chuan really going to marry Sheng Tianci?
Sheng Yang sat on the sofa with red eyes, looking bewildered.

Pei Chuan inadvertently opened his phone for the 108th time during his work break.
Quiet.
Hasn’t the little spy woken up yet today?
While he was in a daze, Gu Nan came in: “Mr. Pei, you’re invited to the Sheng family dinner tonight.”
Pei Chuan frowned slightly. He never liked this kind of gathering. The Sheng family actually dared to invite him directly now. They probably wanted to exchange benefits with him.
But Pei Chuan really needed help now. The Sheng family could raise a child with such character. Pei Chuan has begun to question whether they were sincere in cooperating.
For him, it would be better to go home and spend time with the little spy.
”No,” he said.
Gu Nan lowered his head slightly: “Yes.”
Pei Chuan had a lot to do tonight, so he sent a message to Sheng Yang: “I’ll be home late tonight, don’t wait for me.”
Sheng Yang didn’t reply.
Pei Chuan didn’t know why he felt so flustered.
It was almost twelve o’clock when he finished his work, and he had just arrived at the underground garage to drive.
”Brother Pei Chuan!”
Sheng Tianci jumped out from behind the car with a smile in his eyes.
Pei Chuan frowned and looked at him. His first reaction to this person was dislike. Besides, were they familiar with each other? He just came up and yelled.
He pretended not to see and opened the car door. Sheng Tianci put his hand on his sleeve and said, “Brother Pei Chuan, don’t you recognize me?”
Pei Chuan frowned at his action and ruthlessly slapped his hand away, saying simply, “Get lost.”
Sheng Tianci was hurt by his action and said, “Have you forgotten me? You often came to my house to play when you were little.”
This person’s face was somewhat similar to Sheng Yang’s, but Pei Chuan still felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart.
He said coldly: “I don’t know you.”
Sheng Tianci’s actions had already offended him, so he didn’t need to be polite.
After Sheng Tianci watched Pei Chuan drive away, he was so angry that he threw his phone to the ground.
His eyes were vicious and he snorted and laughed.
If an Alpha comes in, he could smell the overwhelming Omega pheromones.
•|•
When Pei Chuan returned home, the lights were dim.
There was no one in the living room.
Pei Chuan frowned slightly, went upstairs, and glanced at Sheng Yang’s door.
Sheng Yang curled up in bed, staring blankly ahead. After hearing the knock on the door, he suddenly realized that it seemed to be very late.
”Are you asleep?”
Pei Chuan’s voice was low.
Sheng Yang didn’t reply and quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Pei Chuan always felt that something was wrong, so he opened the door.
The room was pitch black. Pei Chuan walked to Sheng Yang’s bedside. Before he could speak, Sheng Yang suddenly opened his eyes.
He was too familiar with the smell of this pheromone.
It was Sheng Tianci’s.
Why did Pei Chuan have Sheng Tianci’s pheromones?
The news he saw in the afternoon and what Sheng Tianci said to him seemed to have answers at this moment.
Pei Chuan asked in a low voice: “Are you feeling unwell?”
Sheng Yang gritted his teeth and shook his head.
Pei Chuan didn’t believe it. He reached out and felt the temperature on his forehead. It was a little hot: “You have a fever.”
Sheng Yang shook his head. He didn’t have a fever.
He just seemed to be in his susceptible period and his whole body was hot.
He desperately released pheromones to cover up Sheng Tianci’s stinky smell. Pei Chuan couldn’t have other people’s pheromones on him.
Pei Chuan had already sensed his subtle changes, and guessed that it might be the susceptible period, so he planned to inject the inhibitor that Su Mo brought him, but Sheng Yang grabbed his wrist.
”Brother, please help me.”
Sheng Yang said while panting slightly.
Pei Chuan knew that the most rational solution was to inject an inhibitor into Sheng Yang, but when he saw Sheng Yang’s slightly red eyes, he suddenly lost control.
Pei Chuan had just closed the door when the young man hugged him from behind.
He turned around, holding the boy’s thin waist tightly with one hand, and with the other hand he slightly reached into the hem of Sheng Yang and touched the boy’s slightly fleshy belly, feeling a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart.
It’s better to gain some weight.
Sheng Yang tried to steady his breathing and asked, “Brother, has the company encountered any problems recently?”
Pei Chuan paused, and he no longer concealed his feelings, and hummed lightly.
Sheng Yang asked again with red eyes: “But I didn’t know.”
He also knew that his question was a bit unreasonable, but Sheng Yang couldn’t help but think so.
Even if he knew, so what? He couldn’t give Pei Chuan anything.
Feeling that the person in his arms was in a bad mood, Pei Chuan said softly: “You don’t need to know.”
He has always been accustomed to solving problems on his own.
Even if he encountered a huge difficulty, he would face it alone.
So Sheng Yang didn’t need to know this.
The little spy had already endured a lot, and Pei Chuan couldn’t add to his troubles.
But when Sheng Yang heard these words, they took on another meaning.
What Sheng Tianci said was true.
He is indeed a useless waste vase.
He will be marrying He Jingnian in a month. What qualifications does he have to stay with Pei Chuan?
Fortunately, the room was dark. Tears rolled down Sheng Yang’s eyes. He stood on tiptoe and blocked Pei Chuan’s lips.
He would just allow himself to indulge this last time.
Sheng Yang was incredibly well-behaved that night, and kept asking him to be heavier.
Pei Chuan touched his sweaty face and kissed him back fiercely, not knowing that all he touched were Sheng Yang’s tears.
Pei Chuan had been extremely nervous during this period, and he had spent too much energy on love affairs. At dawn, he fell asleep with Sheng Yang in his arms.
Sheng Yang, with scars all over his body, looked at Pei Chuan’s eyebrows with his red and swollen eyes, wanting to imprint him deeply in his mind.
How come he didn’t notice that Pei Chuan’s dark circles were so serious?
Sheng Yang looked at him for a long time, then slowly stood up and gently touched Pei Chuan’s lips. It was a kiss without any lust, very simple and full of affection.
It was a long time before he reluctantly left.
•|•
When Pei Chuan woke up, he felt his arms were empty.
He opened his eyes and didn’t see Sheng Yang.
He guessed that the young alpha had gone downstairs to study.
Did he go a little too far last night?
He couldn’t be fooled by the little spy next time.
Besides that, Pei Chuan was a little confused – why was Sheng Yang’s susceptible period so short this time?
As soon as he stood up, he keenly realized that something was wrong.
Something seemed to be missing from the room.
Pei Chuan’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly got out of bed, opened the door, and looked downstairs.
There was no sign of Sheng Yang downstairs.
He looked a little flustered, but forced himself to calm down and quickly walked back to Sheng Yang’s room.
Pei Chuan’s expression was stern.
He finally realized what was missing.
Sheng Yang’s suitcase…is missing.
He left quietly while he was asleep.
