Chapter 351 Extra 2: Yu Xuan (2)

"Yu Xuan, are you still angry?"

Under the warm light of the living room, Yu Tong, sitting on the sofa with her hair almost dry, had her back to Yu Xuan and couldn't see his expression. She nervously twirled her fingers in front of her and asked.

Yu Xuan put the towel aside and looked down at the fair neck.

The slightly raised glands were not even concealed.

Yes, he was just a Beta, without sharp canines. What could he do even if he saw her glands?

There was no way to break through the barrier and inject pheromones to mark her.

So at home, she never needed to wear a restraint patch and always appeared before him like this.

"Yu Xuan?"

Coming to his senses, Yu Xuan said calmly, "I'm angry at myself. I'm so useless."

Yu Tong turned to look at him anxiously, her watery eyes filled with unease: "You don't mean it, so don't talk about yourself like that."

Yu Xuan leaned back on the sofa, her voice hoarse: "If I earned more, you could continue living like you used to at home, and you wouldn't have to miss school to take care of me."

"It's me, I'm so useless."

Sitting cross-legged on the sofa, with one hand resting on his raised knee, Yu Xuan was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, and the bulging veins on his fair arms were visible.

His striking appearance as a child is now simply a proportional enlargement, and his unusually tall stature makes him even more eye-catching.

Even compared to Alphas, her appearance is considered superior.

Looking up at the ceiling, his Adam's apple bobbed as if he were choking back tears, making him look like a beautiful boy straight out of a manga.

Yu Tong turned around completely and knelt on the edge of the sofa. "Why do you think like that? I've never regretted it. You're my only family now, not a burden."

She reached out and cupped Yu Xuan's face in her hands: "What's wrong? You seem a bit strange lately."

This abnormality seems to have started about two weeks ago.

But she couldn't remember what had happened half a month ago. She wouldn't know about the admission results for another week, so logically, there shouldn't be anything for Yu Xuan to think about now.

"Oh, right, Sister Pei became a mother. Do you think we should prepare something for her?"

She seemed to suddenly remember this and asked Yu Xuan in a low voice.

Yu Xuan paused for a moment: "I've already chosen one, I'm waiting for your greeting card."

Yu Tong lowered her head and rested her forehead on his, her voice gentle: "Okay, I'll go write it in a bit."

"Yu Xuan, if you don't want to tell me, you can tell Sister Pei or Brother Shi Min about the problem. Don't try to tough it out on yourself, okay?"

Yu Xuan's throat was dry: "She's a mother now, why should we let her worry about these things?"

“But Sister Pei has helped us a lot.” Yu Tong paused, then added, “You’re right, she’s a mother now.”

"Hmm, I don't think I've heard anything about Sister Pei getting married."

Her forehead touched his, but she pulled away in an instant.

With her hands resting on the sofa, she said somewhat uncertainly, "Should we write a blessing for her and Brother Shimin?"

Yu Xuan pursed her lips: "Just congratulate her."

Over the years, Pei Zhiyi has always been surrounded by her own team members, with no one else joining her. Yu Xuan, through Shi Min's almost three-monthly contact with Pei Zhiyi, has also learned quite a bit about her.

Only Shi Min was slightly affectionate towards the two of them; the rest of the people didn't care about them at all.

The Alphas' gazes remained fixed solely on Pei Zhiyi from beginning to end.

They seemed completely oblivious to the impact of such gazes on the children, openly looking at Pei Zhiyi with eyes full of love and possessiveness.

Occasional intimate gestures.

It definitely transcends the distance between friends, reaching a level that only lovers would have. Pei Zhiyi didn't feel that anything was wrong.

He, however, keenly noticed it.

So when he suddenly heard that Pei Zhiyi had given birth, he didn't know whose child it was.

In short, Omegas can only have children by mating with Alphas.
Now the technology for washing labels is so advanced.

Pei Zhiyi is open to having as many children as she and her partner can.

But if it were Yu Tong...
Just imagining it makes my heart feel like it's being torn in two.

"Yu Xuan, why are you spacing out again?"

Her small, pale hand touched his forehead uncertainly again: "Are you sick?"

Yu Xuan pulled her hand and held it in his palm: "No, it just suddenly occurred to me that someone confessed to you, so why didn't you say yes?"

"Don't worry about me, just say yes if you like it."

That way, he can finally give up.

Yu Tong's eyes showed a hint of nervousness: "How did you know?"

Yu Xuan's voice was calm: "I saw him bringing you home that day, downstairs."

Alpha's mental energy clearly noticed him, but he didn't pay any attention to him at all, and confessed his feelings to Yu Tong.

“But I’ve already rejected him. I don’t like him.” Yu Tong bit her lip and said softly, “I don’t think I want to think about this yet.”

"Right now, all I want is for our little family to have a better life."

Yu Xuan felt as if he had been hit hard in the chest. He clenched his fists, suppressing the urge to blurt out everything.

With a struggle, he pulled out his supercomputer, which was probably several generations older than his current one, from his pocket. "Alright, it's getting late. Go to sleep."

He ran his fingers through Yu Tong's hair and whispered, "Dry it."

Yu Tong lowered her head, gave a soft "hmm," and got up to walk back to her room from the sofa.

Yu Xuan got up, walked to the narrow balcony that could only accommodate two people standing side by side, took out a cigarette from his storage compartment, lit it, and took a deep drag in his lungs.

He didn't smoke often, and the strong smell of smoke, with its pungent odor, made his face look somewhat disheveled.

A cigarette, even after it's burned out, only takes a few minutes to burn out.

He carefully collected the cigarette ash, put it in a storage bag, and rested his hands on the windowsill railing, lost in thought.

The property left to him and Yu Tong by their parents was quite substantial at first, but with the tightening of border controls and the outbreak of the monster tide, the house they had bought for a stable life was destroyed.

They traveled to several planets and spent a lot of money, gradually becoming strapped for cash.

Pei Zhiyi and Shi Min helped them a lot, without a doubt.

They even provided them with substantial financial assistance.

As he grew older, Yu Xuan stopped letting Shi Min and the others interfere.

He also had a bit of pride; he was capable of making money and didn't want this little bit of help to go astray.

Although his decision to undergo stimulation to gain mental power was, in a sense, a betrayal of Pei Zhiyi and the others.

He even told Pei Zhiyi that if she didn't want to contact them anymore, he would accept it.

But after learning that he had gained mental powers, that person said, "Our Yu Xuan wants to protect someone. That's very brave."

It wasn't a blaming question, but rather a casual conversation between friends and family, asking him what would happen to Yu Tong if he died, and who could take better care of her than him.
Even though he had survived death, Yu Xuan was unable to answer for a long time.

Because everyone knows the answer: no one can take better care of her than him.
