Damn it, I'm surrounded by insane Alphas!

"Good boy/girl."

Wen Yiheng's hand slid from her cheek to her chin, and her thumb and forefinger supported Shi Ran's jawbone.

Do you miss me?

Shi Ran's lips parted slightly, and a single word rolled out from her throat, so hoarse it was almost inaudible: "Want."

He swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing, and repeated, "I think about it every day, every second."

Wen Yiheng looked down at him, the curve of her lips deepening slightly, as if she were inspecting an object that had finally learned to recognize its master.

"Good girl." He said gently, as if coaxing her, "Still want to run away?"

Shi Ran shivered.

"I'm not running anymore." Shi Ran rubbed her face against Wen Yiheng's palm, her chapped lips brushing against his palm lines. "I'm not running anymore... I'm not going anywhere."

"Where are the stray dogs outside? Should we still provoke them?"

He would shake his head from time to time, making the chain sway along with him.

"I'm not going to provoke anyone anymore... I'm not going to provoke anyone..."

Wen Yiheng looked down at him, click.

The handcuffs were removed.

Shi Ran's wrist was marked with a light red ring, which had been pressed against it for four days. Wen Yiheng held that wrist and gently rubbed the red ring with her thumb.

Then he bent down, slipped one hand under Shi Ran's knees, and lifted him up from the floor.

Shi Ran felt lighter; four days of hunger had made him feel even lighter than before.

Almost instinctively, he buried his face in Wen Yiheng's neck, his nose brushing against the skin above her collarbone, smelling a warm, woody scent ten times stronger than the one on the pillow.

He hugged her a little tighter.

Wen Yiheng carried him to the bathroom and placed him in the warm, just-right water. Shi Ran sank into the water, the hot water washing over his shoulders, and he felt so comfortable that he wanted to fall asleep.

Wen Yiheng knelt outside the bathtub, rolled up her sleeves, and began to wipe his body.

Starting from his neck, I brushed across his chest, across every curve of his ribs that was more pronounced due to his thinness, and when I brushed across his left hand, he suddenly flinched.

The towel touched the festering wound on his index finger; it hurt, but he didn't make a sound.

Wen Yiheng stopped.

He put down the towel, grasped Shi Ran's wrist, and the wound on his finger was exposed to the warm yellow light. It was red and swollen, and the edges of the wound were pale after being soaked in water.

He looked at it for a moment, then lowered his head and pressed his lips to the wound.

Suddenly, he froze.

Wen Yiheng's lips were very soft, and her tongue lightly swept across the edge of the wound, as if licking a wounded cub.

His eyes were closed, and his eyelashes cast a small shadow under the light in front of the mirror.

That posture was so devout, so devout that it didn't seem like a perpetrator, but rather like a penitent who had been kneeling before a statue of a god all night.

But he was the one who locked him up.

"Don't bite yourself anymore." Wen Yiheng raised her head, her thumb still gently drawing circles on Shi Ran's hand, round and round, at the same frequency as the red dot flashing, "Bite me."

Shi Ran looked at her hands, then raised her head to look at Wen Yiheng.

He suddenly realized that the empty handcuffs on his wrists weren't something he couldn't remove, but something he didn't want to remove.

So what is the answer?

However: the most frequently said... (thinking left and right) not a single one can be broadcast.

Gu Chen: Be gentle.

Cheng Ye: Are you a dog?

Fu Yanshen: He was speechless.

Ran: (Shouting from a distance) Fu Yanshen, don't scare people, okay?

Wen Yiheng: I'm hungry.

Lu Lin: "Get lost!" And what else... "Shut up"? No... why are you being so mean to me?

Tongzi: I'll reveal the answer. Actually, according to statistics, the sentence Shiran says most often in bed is... "I'm asleep."

Ran: Really? I was asleep, how can I talk?

System: Please watch the video.

"Baby, please don't let Cheng Ye come tomorrow night, okay? I'll stay with you."

However, she said, "I'm asleep."

"Please, just one more time, please..."

However: "I fell asleep."
