In the room, Chi Feifan slept soundly and comfortably.

His body was dry, and the bedding smelled of Qin Yi's pheromones.

Qin Yi coaxed him a couple of times and got him up to drink some millet porridge that had been cooked for a long time.

When Chi Feifan lay down again, he felt someone patting him. He frowned and raised his arm to cover his face: "Don't pat me."

His eyelids were heavy, his eyes and mouth were sore, and his throat was uncomfortable. He must look terrible right now.

Peeking through a crack in his eye, Chi Feifan saw Qin Yi still holding his phone. He pulled the blanket over his head and mumbled a warning from under the covers: "Delete it."

Qin Yi: "I'll keep this for myself and not share it."

The thought that so many people now have that official photo of him and Chi Feifan making their relationship feel incredibly unpleasant. He wanted to take some photos that only he could see of Chi Feifan.

Qin Yi squatted down and dug the person out of the blanket to prevent them from suffocating.

Chi Feifan buried his head in the pillow: "I want to fire you. Or you can consider terminating your contract yourself."

When Chi Feifan bought Hawk, it wasn't entirely for Qin Yi's sake, but a large part of the reason was related to Qin Yi. However, after being the boss for less than three months, he felt like he had shot himself in the foot.

Being a boss is so frustrating; he's constantly being bullied and bullied by his own players.

Although he was wrong at first yesterday and it's right to coax his boyfriend, Qin Yi went too far.

Qin Yi ran his fingers through Chi Feifan's hair, gently smoothing it, and laughed: "Why? You don't want to take responsibility after you've taken advantage of me? You just want to use me and then throw me away?"

Who the hell is sleeping with whom?

Chi Feifan raised his aching arm and slapped Qin Yi's hand away. Just as he was about to speak angrily, Qin Yi's phone suddenly vibrated.

Why is Ms. Lu making a phone call at this hour?

"Your dad and I will be downstairs at your base in ten minutes," came Ms. Lu's voice from the other end of the phone.

"What are you doing here?"

"I heard about what happened yesterday." Ms. Lu seemed to have been holding back her anger the whole way, and her voice was trembling slightly as she spoke. "I contacted the best law firm in Shanghai with your father. Many of the top lawyers there graduated from their university."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yi turned around and closed the curtains.

Where are you going?

Chi Feifan opened his hazy eyes, too lazy to move.

Qin Yi's heart softened.

Chi Feifan is usually very grumpy when he wakes up, but every time you sleep with him, his attitude softens for once after you've slept until dawn.

Even Chi Feifan probably didn't realize that there was a hint of reluctance in his tone, which sounded like a child's whine to the Alpha.

Qin Yi leaned down and kissed his forehead: "It's downstairs, not far. You can sleep a little longer."

*

As soon as she entered the base, Ms. Lu saw Qin Yi sitting alone on the sofa and hurriedly tried to go inside: "Where's Xiao Fan? Is he hurt?"

Qin Yi stood up to stop her: "No, he's still sleeping."

"Sleeping?" Ms. Lu subconsciously glanced at her watch. "You're not lying to me, are you?"

It's already past eleven o'clock.

Old Qin had just finished scanning the fare for the taxi driver and hadn't even entered the door when he turned around and bumped into Chen Yangyang and Jiang Wei, who had come over together after finishing their business.

Ms. Lu knew Chen Yangyang, but had never met Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei's attire doesn't resemble that of a base staff member.

Chen Yangyang was very good at reading people's expressions. He keenly noticed Ms. Lu's probing gaze and introduced the two of them to each other.

"This is Chi Feifan's stepmother."

Upon hearing the word "stepmother," Ms. Lu's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her expression gradually turned cold. Her expression was identical to Qin Yi's when he was angry, her eyelids taut and indifferent: "Oh, hello."

Jiang Wei was perceptive and maintained her smile, though she wondered why the woman in front of her seemed so hostile towards her.

Ms. Lu looked away after only a few glances.

Xiao Fan must have suffered a lot at home, and she's always been very thin. This stepmother doesn't seem like a good person.

Jiang Wei pursed her lips and also stopped smiling.

Why are Qin Yi's parents so arrogant? If Xiao Fan really plans to stay with Qin Yi, will she be bullied if she goes to their house?

"Since both sets of parents are here," Chen Yangyang said, pausing for a moment. She felt like a wedding emcee, with Chi Feifan standing right next to her.

He pinched the bridge of his nose and continued, "I'd like to take this opportunity to tell everyone about the situation with the police."

The group sat down in the rarely used restaurant on the first floor of Hawk.

Chi Jianye will definitely go to jail; the only question now is how long his sentence will be.

As for the other two accomplices, they couldn't escape either. Not only did they assist Chi Jianye, but the police later found traces of the drug in the cups in the private room and a small bag in the fat boss's assistant's pocket, confirming Jiang Wei's words.

Harming an Omega is a serious crime, and that alone is enough to get them into serious trouble.

Ms. Lu took a sip of water gracefully: "Leave the rest to us. Xiao Fan has suffered such a great injustice, we will definitely find a way to make that guy surnamed Chi spend the rest of his life in jail and help him get rid of this humiliation."

Old Qin's expression was equally serious: "That's right, we've always treated him like our own child, even closer than our own son."

The couple worked together in perfect harmony.

Jiang Wei raised an eyebrow and also picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip.

Who is being implied here?

The atmosphere in the restaurant was somewhat somber.

Qin Yi realized that his parents seemed to only know what happened yesterday, but didn't fully understand the specifics of Chi Feifan's family situation...

Qin Yi coughed lightly next to Ms. Lu.

"If your throat is sore, drink more water."

"..."

Jiang Wei has a gentle personality and rarely wants to compete with others, but at this moment, she straightened her back and said, "Thank you for your concern for my Xiao Fan. I don't have any children, but in my eyes, Xiao Fan is just like my own son. We have a very good relationship."

However, for the past ten years or so, Chi Feifan had always longed for his biological mother to return, so his heart remained tightly closed. In reality, he was the kind of person who, regardless of whether he wanted it or not, would always find an opportunity to repay even the smallest favor from others.

Jiang Wei used to love growing flowers and had planted a large trellis in her yard.

Chi Jianye ignored Chi Feifan, and the housekeeper treated him differently depending on who he was, showing him neither warmth nor coldness. Chi Feifan had never made breakfast for him when he was in school.

Jiang Wei insisted on making it several times and forced it on Chi Feifan. Later, Chi Feifan applied to live on campus. However, when he occasionally came back on weekends, Jiang Wei would hear his aunt telling him that Chi Feifan always fiddled with the flowers when no one was around.

As a result, all the flowers died.

At first, Jiang Wei thought that Chi Feifan disliked her and deliberately killed the flowers. Later, Jiang Wei found out that the housekeeper was careless and had applied too much fertilizer, burning the roots, and didn't want to take responsibility.

If Chi Feifan really wanted to kill the flower, given his personality, he could have simply uprooted it and smashed it on the ground. Why bother with a small shovel and a watering can?

Perhaps Chi Feifan also felt that his good intentions had backfired. After returning from his holiday, he stood in front of the flower stand for a long time, and from then on, he became even less accepting of Jiang Wei's good intentions.

Chen Yangyang also noticed that the magnetic field on the table was not right.

Just then, heavy footsteps came from the stairs.

Chi Feifan couldn't fall asleep after that. The millet porridge Qin Yi had cooked smelled quite good. He was a little hungry and wanted to drink some more, so he got downstairs.

Although his legs felt weak and his back ached, this time it wasn't as long as his heat cycle, so he could still walk.

Chi Feifan touched his neck, looked up, and unexpectedly met the eyes of everyone in the restaurant.

"..."

He stood there, stunned, thinking he was hallucinating.

"Creak—"

Inside the restaurant, the sound of several chairs sliding on the floor could be heard repeatedly.

Seeing Aunt Lu, Uncle Qin, and Jiang Wei walking towards him at the same time, Chi Feifan felt his scalp tingle and the hairs on his body stand on end.

His first reaction was to examine the clothes he was wearing.

Qin Yi didn't dress him in his own clothes again, but fortunately, Chi Feifan had put on a jacket before going downstairs, with a small section of his oversized shirt peeking out.

Chi Feifan froze, his hand on his neck stiff. He didn't dare to put it down, because he hadn't put on any barrier tape. If he did, the marks on the back of his neck would be exposed.

"Xiao Fan." Ms. Lu called out to him first, and was about to ask him about his condition when she glanced at him and noticed that Chi Feifan's lips were red and even a little chapped.

She thought it was Chi Feifan's injury from the argument yesterday.

Ms. Lu cautiously reached out to touch it but dared not. She frowned angrily, her gaze sharpening behind her glasses.

"Which bastard did this? I'm going to have my lawyer sue him severely!"
