Capítulo 39: Chapter 39 : Shared Affection
What was the second worst thing that occurred to Zhang Fengxi after accusing Xie Jianyu of something he did not do?
Having him do Zhang Fengxi a favor and remove the source of the latter's distress.
What was the third worst thing?
Having no chance to apologize, let alone say thank you.
Xie Jianyu continued ignoring Zhang Fengxi.
Jiang Muchen continued giving him the stink eye.
They were the last to arrive at class, and the first to depart.
Apart from watching their backs from a distance, there was nothing Zhang Fengxi could do. Not unless Xie Jianyu deigned to speak to him.
In this life too, Zhang Fengxi was probably fated to owe Xie Jianyu.
Meanwhile, Xie Jianyu's seventeenth birthday was approaching.
In the Heavenly Empire, save for the Emperor's birthday, all other birthdays were celebrated in private.
Zhang Fengxi faintly remembered receiving an invitation to Xie Jianyu's birthday celebration in his past life. He was not surprised to receive no invitation this year.
It did not matter because Zhang Fengxi could never make it. He had to take care of Liu Wenyuan.
The day of Xie Jianyu's seventeenth birthday just happened to be the day Liu Wenyuan experienced his first heat.
After differentiating either to an alpha or an omega, the heavenly creatures started experiencing ruts and heats correspondingly.
The first rut and the first heat were always the worst.
When alphas had their first ruts, all they had to do was retreat into secluded cultivation and meditate until the effects of the ruts dissipated.
Not so with omegas' heats.
Omegas had to roll around in pain, cry out sorrowfully, and beg for alphas to come and quench the burning desire that pooled at the bottom of their stomachs.
Of course, if the omegas were married, the couples could just retreat into seclusion and make sweet love to each other day and night.
Unmarried omegas had it the worst. Without sexual intercourse, they depended on alphas -- usually their prospective partners -- to stay by their sides and give them some relief.
Zhang Fengxi was ready before the messenger from Wuyang Palace arrived. One could clearly see the puzzled expression on the messenger's face.
How did Zhang Fengxi know when Liu Wenyuan's first heat took place?
Although the prospective partner had to stay close, the alpha and omega were not allowed to touch directly.
One touch could easily lead to more.
Liu Wenyuan lay on his bed, his form was hidden behind a thin silk curtain.
"Prince Fengxi..." he called out occasionally.
Through the curtain, Zhang Fengxi grabbed his hand and provided him some relief.
A soft sigh emanated from behind the curtain.
"Thank you..."
"You are welcome."
Zhang Fengxi wanted to focus on the person he loved, but his mind kept wandering to the one time he lay together with Xie Jianyu.
Xie Jianyu...
Once all the disguises came off, he was no different than other omegas. Sweet and soft in his embrace. When Zhang Fengxi kissed Xie Jianyu, a wave of indescribable emotions flooded his heart and granted him a sense of peace.
When he was entangled with Xie Jianyu, he felt an inexplicable sense of belonging. It was as if they were two halves of an entity. As if they were meant to be.
And yet, the one Zhang Fengxi loved was Liu Wenyuan. Zhang Fengxi closed his eyes and bit into his lower lip.
He did not understand himself. If he loved Liu Wenyuan, why was Xie Jianyu able to trigger such emotions in his heart? What was it that he felt toward Xie Jianyu? Was it just the primal instincts to procreate with an omega? Or was it something else...?
Liu Wenyuan's first heat ended smoothly late at night. Liu Yichen and his wife thanked Zhang Fengxi profusely for his help, all the while dropping hints about an upcoming engagement.
On his way back to Longjing Palace, Zhang Fengxi caught sight of the taller buildings at Fuxi Palace.
It was Xie Jianyu's birthday.
Did he have fun?
Was he happy?
Zhang Fengxi changed the direction of his spiritual tiger's flight and directed it toward Fuxi Palace.
Late at night, only the guards at the gate were still standing tall. They crossed their spears in alarm when Zhang Fengxi's spiritual tiger stepped on the ground.
The guards were not especially friendly this time because the last time Zhang Fengxi came, he beat up their master.
"I am not here to fight," Zhang Fengxi announced. "I just want to meet with Xie Jianyu for a while. I won't take long."
A guard furrowed his brows at Zhang Fengxi.
"It is already very late, Prince Zhang Fengxi. The Palace Master is resting. Please come back tomorrow."
Zhang Fengxi shook his head. Tomorrow, Xie Jianyu's birthday would have already passed.
"I have to see him tonight."
