Damn it, I'm surrounded by insane Alphas!

Zhou Jin didn't have time to complain anymore. He made a quick decision and rushed towards the elevator that had just closed.

Until he watched the numbers on the elevator climb all the way up and stop at "7".

"So, they really are on the same floor as the boss..."

He quickly followed him into the elevator, wanting to find out which room it was.

As a result, the elevator doors opened, and I was met with Crow's expressionless face.

"You fucking scared me to death!"

The crow ignored his complaints, simply raising its chin. "See?"

Zhou Jin nodded vigorously: "I saw it! It's on the same floor as the boss, so the one you were following earlier is one too?"

"Not just on the same floor, but to the left and right of the eldest brother's room."

Looking at the eldest brother's room 705, which was surrounded by people, Zhou Jin felt a chill run straight to the top of his head.

"Damn..." Zhou Jin muttered, "This is really going to be interesting."

Meanwhile, in room 706.

The man casually tossed his baseball cap onto the entryway cabinet, and a familiar mixed-race face appeared in the mirror.

Cheng Ye raised his hand and rubbed the back of his neck. Ten hours of flying and non-stop travel had indeed been quite tough.

Yesterday morning, he made a point of setting aside time, thinking that he could see Shi Ran again if he took the two children to a charity event, but he was told that Shi Ran had taken leave.

When asked why they requested leave, they would stammer and give vague answers.

Gu Chen also arrived, and he looked to be in very poor condition, with his pheromones on the verge of going berserk, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Judging from his appearance, he was also looking for Shi Ran.

Cheng Ye immediately sensed something was wrong; he sent several WeChat messages but no one replied.

Just as he was feeling troubled, a cheerful voice rang out.

"Oh, troubled by love?"

Cheng's mother came over with coffee, but Cheng Ye had no time to deal with her teasing.

Speaking of which, I have to thank his mother. Who would have thought that the blind date she casually introduced him to would turn out to be Shi Ran, whom he had been looking for for so long? It was such a coincidence.

skillful?

Little did he know that this was no coincidence at all.

After his car accident, his mother always felt something was amiss, so she secretly retrieved the surveillance footage of the section of road where the accident occurred.

It was discovered that all the videos had been manipulated.

She felt something was wrong, so she used some unconventional channels to buy back a fragment of video that had not been completely deleted.

In the video, amidst the chaotic accident scene, a slender and handsome boy is desperately clinging to the deformed car door, trying to pull Cheng Ye out of the car.

The boy's face was covered in dust, but his eyes were full of concern. Even after the rescuers arrived, he insisted on staying by his side until he was confirmed to have been lifted into the ambulance.

Cheng's mother looked at the scene repeatedly, her eyes growing brighter and brighter.

"This child is wonderful... so beautiful, and so kind-hearted."

An idea quickly took shape in her mind.

"I wish I could come inside my house."

So she meticulously planned a chance encounter and successfully added the person on WeChat at an engagement party.

She was quite pleased with her smooth and effortless combo, and couldn't help but smile smugly. "How about it? Wasn't the person Mom introduced you the best?"

She was already lost in her own daydreams about the future, "What if you two get married and have a baby? How beautiful that would be! Eyes all the time, nose all the time, mouth all the time..."

Cheng Ye finally understood: "So you can't be like me at all?"

Cheng's mother glanced at him with disdain: "I'm tired of seeing foreign faces. Shi Ran's Asian face is much more sophisticated and pleasing to the eye."

Cheng Ye stood up and asked, "It's a pity that he's ignoring me and I don't know where he went. If only someone could help me find out where he is now."

Cheng's mother naturally understood her son's implication, and a playful look appeared on her well-maintained face: "What? Weren't you the one who used to despise your father and me for our methods?"

"I'm really afraid something will happen to him."

The teasing expression on Cheng's mother's face slowly faded, and she immediately sent someone to investigate.

This investigation revealed that Shi Ran's exit record was actually found; he had just flown to Paris.

What aroused her suspicion was that the person flying with Shi Ran was Fu Yanshen.

He had heard of this name before. This was a rising star who had gained fame in Hong Kong in recent years. He was ruthless and had a deep-rooted influence, making him no easy person to deal with.

How did Shi Ran end up getting involved with him?

However, she did not tell her son about this man, but secretly sent some capable people with him to France.

Meanwhile, Cheng Ye, in his hotel room, pressed his ear against the wall, trying to eavesdrop on what was happening next door.

But there was no sound at all.

"The soundproofing is amazing..."

He stood up somewhat irritated, preparing to go directly to the next room to knock on the door, when he suddenly heard a faint groan coming from next door.

It was more like a wail of pain.

In the next room, Shi Ran was curled up on the soft hotel bed when a sharp burning pain suddenly shot through the glands on the back of her neck, as if countless tiny needles were piercing and burning under her skin.

The feeling came suddenly and violently. At first, it was just a slight fever and palpitations, which he thought was due to the fatigue of the journey.

But just now, when he was taking a shower, when Fu Yanshen suddenly pushed open the bathroom door, the familiar pheromones approached, and Shi Ran felt as if she had been suddenly pricked by a needle.

"Well--!"

Fu Yanshen's expression changed drastically, and he immediately went over, but the closer he got, the more pained Shi Ran's voice became.

"No, don't come any closer."

Fu Yanshen was unusually flustered. "Okay, okay, I won't go. Are you alright?"

Shi Ran endured the stinging pain in the back of her neck and leaned against the wall to return to her bedroom.

"My glands, my glands hurt so much..."

Fu Yanshen's first reaction was that Shi Ran was in heat, but when in heat one should crave the Alpha's approach, so why was she so resistant?

Undeterred, he tried to get closer again, but every time he took a step forward, he would curl up in pain.

Left with no other choice, he could only summon Zhou Jin and Crow.

"You go and give it a try."

Zhou Jin was taken aback, but then he understood what Fu Yanshen meant.

He is a Beta, has no pheromones, and does not stimulate the glands of an Omega.

"Yes, boss."

Zhou Jin approached the bedside cautiously, trying to move as quietly as possible. "Mr. Shi? How are you feeling? Can you hear me?"

He mumbled a vague "hmm" from time to time, his brows still furrowed.

But when Zhou Jin approached and even tentatively touched his burning forehead with the back of his hand, he showed no discomfort.

"It seems... a little better?"

Zhou Jin looked back at Fu Yanshen uncertainly.

Fu Yanshen's expression turned even uglier.

This confirmed his guess that Shi Ran's gland abnormality at this moment was most likely related to Alpha pheromones.

Is it a rejection reaction to all Alpha pheromones? Or is it only targeting him?

He made a quick decision and was preparing to take Shi Ran to the hospital.

"Knock knock knock".

A light knock sounded on the door.

Fu Yanshen's eyes sharpened, and he gestured for Zhou Jin to go and take a look.

Looking through the peephole, Zhou Jin saw who was outside the door and awkwardly turned around, mouthing, "Wen Yiheng."

Fu Yanshen walked to the door, and through the door panel, his voice was icy: "So late, what's the matter?"

Outside the door, Wen Yiheng's voice was calm and even, "Is Shi Ran feeling unwell?"

Fu Yanshen didn't answer him, so Wen Yiheng added, "Mr. Fu, I forgot to tell you, I was his attending physician in China. I'm afraid no one knows more about his glands and pheromones than I do."

Fu Yanshen's eyes flickered slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he finally opened it.

Wen Yiheng's gaze immediately fell on Shi Ran on the bed. He walked straight to the bedside, but as soon as he got close, Shi Ran, who was in a daze, seemed to sense something and his brows furrowed in pain.

"No, no, don't come any closer..."

Wen Yiheng stood there, her eyes full of heartache, and gently coaxed, "I'll put away the pheromones, okay... Your glands are very fragile right now and need to be checked immediately, just one check, please."

Shi Ran seemed to realize in a daze that it was Wen Yiheng, and subconsciously called his name, her voice trembling with tears.

"Wen Yiheng..."

"It's me." Wen Yiheng's voice was even softer as she slowly approached. "Don't be afraid. Let me take a look at you. Only after I've examined you can I know how to ease your discomfort, okay?"

Shi Ran gave a very low "hmm".

Wen Yiheng slowly approached Shi Ran, just as she put down the box and was about to reach out her hand—

"Don't touch him."

Fu Yanshen's voice rang out from behind.

Wen Yiheng didn't stop, refusing to back down: "Mr. Fu, I'm a doctor. How can I confirm the situation without examining me?"

Fu Yanshen clenched his fist at his side, the veins on the back of his hand showing.

He couldn't accept watching another Alpha touch Shi Ran's glands, even though the other was a doctor.

Fu Yanshen's expression grew increasingly grim, but he had no choice but to endure it in order to stabilize Shi Ran's situation.

Just when he had nowhere to vent his anger, "Bang!"

The room door was suddenly slammed open from the outside, followed by Cheng Ye's angry voice coming through the door:

"What's wrong with Shi Ran?! Open the door!"

Clearly, Cheng Ye had also heard the commotion and could no longer sit still.

Fu Yanshen was already harboring resentment, and now it felt like he had found the perfect outlet.

He turned around abruptly, strode to the door, and flung it open.

Outside the door, Cheng Ye immediately saw Wen Yiheng leaning over Shi Ran's bedside, her hand touching Shi Ran's neck.

His eyes instantly turned red.

"What are you doing?! Let him go!"

Fu Yanshen's already gloomy face instantly turned icy. Another one, huh?

It's really lively.

Fu Yanshen's voice was low, hoarse, and cold. "Get out."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Ye merely sneered. Sensing the other party's killing intent, he released his pheromones without showing any weakness.

Two top-tier Alpha pheromones collided violently at the narrow doorway!

Shi Ran, who was already extremely sensitive on the bed, couldn't help but clutch her head tightly, "Ah—!"

"Can you guys just shut up for once?!"

Wen Yiheng's furious shouts erupted from beside the bed.

(Xiao Ran: Please stop fighting! I'll die if you keep hitting me TT)
