[Esports] Pheromones say we're a match made in heaven.

In the hospital, Chi Jianye had already vented his anger on Jiang Wei.

In the spacious and bright single hospital room, he sat on the bed, panting heavily, the needle in his hand just removed.

The Chi family's business has recently run into some problems, with a huge hole that he can't fill on his own.

The Chi family may seem successful, but Chi Jianye has become arrogant in recent years, leaving the group to his cronies. However, these cronies proved unreliable, devouring the group like termites.

So he had another idea: to use Chi Feifan's marriage to make money.

For three consecutive days, Chi Jianye was out drinking and eating with people from the Zhang, Shen, and Song families. As a result, he accidentally drank too much and almost scared the restaurant manager to death.

after awhile.

"You know Xiao Fan's personality. Even if you talk to him, he won't agree. Besides, his second differentiation isn't complete yet, so it's best not to..."

Jiang Wei patiently poured Chi Jianye a glass of water, hoping to calm him down and prevent the situation from getting out of control if Chi Feifan arrived.

Unexpectedly, Chi Jianye became famous instantly after hearing her words.

A snap.

The cup shattered on the ground.

"Chi Feifan is my son. You're just his mother in name only. You don't discipline him properly and let him run wild outside. What are you meddling in here for?"

Jiang Wei let out a short cry of surprise as Chi Jianye grabbed her wrist with great force.

Chi Jianye regretted it more and more the more he thought about it.

Jiang Wei is just a pretty face.

"I shouldn't have married you in the first place. I should have married someone who could benefit the Chi family. What use are you besides being pretty?"

"Bang--!"

The door to the ward was kicked open.

Chi Feifan stood at the door, holding his phone, staring intently inside.

Chi Jianye.

Chi Feifan spoke slowly and deliberately.

"I originally thought you were just a scumbag who couldn't control his lower body."

"I never expected you to be such a bastard who would lay a hand on an Omega."

"If you're so eager to use me for money, why didn't you drink yourself to death last night?"

The moment Jiang Wei saw Chi Feifan, an indescribable panic and bittersweet feeling welled up inside her: "Xiao Fan..."

Chi Jianye was enraged. He shoved Jiang Wei away, his face turning red with anger.

He originally intended to start cursing or even resort to violence.

But there had been quite a commotion inside, and now a nurse on duty was peeking out from the door. He had no choice but to speak to Chi Feifan in a threatening tone: "I haven't even settled the score with you for driving the Pei family away last time. You'd better be sensible and obey my orders, otherwise, when the Chi family falls, you'll be nothing and won't get a single penny!"

"That's perfect."

Chi Feifan completely drowned out Chi Jianye's voice.

Chi Jianye: "What did you say?"

Chi Feifan: "I said, it's good that it's gone, it's good that nobody has money, I don't have any, and neither do your mistresses outside."

He never cared about how much wealth the Chi family had.

All he cared about was preventing the Chi family's assets from falling into the hands of those outsiders.

I'd rather lose everything than lose a single coin.

Since Chi Jianye can't patch up the hole now, he might as well just burn it to ashes.

Chi Jianye stood there, stunned, never expecting that Chi Feifan would think that way.

"You... why do you think you've been able to live so comfortably all these years? Your mother didn't want you anymore, but I kept you and took care of you."

Chi Jianye pointed at Chi Feifan's nose, his finger trembling: "Your conscience has been eaten by dogs!"

The cold white light shone on Chi Feifan's face, and a chilling coldness seeped into his eyes.

"Don't try to hold me hostage just because you're my father. Don't think I haven't investigated you. The living expenses you've given me over the years don't even amount to the cars you've bought for your mistresses. If you want, I can pay you back right now."

Chi Jianye's eyes widened, the words he was about to say stuck in his throat.

"Do you remember my birthday?"

Chi Jianye remained silent.

He's so busy every day, of course he wouldn't remember.

Do you know how old I am?

Did you attend any parent-teacher conferences when I was in school?

"Do you remember that time you came home drunk and attacked me?"

Today is his birthday.

Although he was not doing it, it was still somewhat different from his usual days.

Chi Feifan felt an unbearable dryness and pain in his throat, so he decided to just blurt it all out.

"If you ever bring up marriage again, I'll wreck your office. My comfortable life has nothing to do with you. Don't try to pin this on me. If you want to fight to the death, just try it."

If Jiang Wei hadn't called him today and Chi Jianye hadn't overheard it, he wouldn't have come at all.

Chi Feifan took a deep breath, quickly scanned Jiang Wei twice, and seeing that Jiang Wei was not injured, he roughly pulled Jiang Wei up and walked outside.

A few onlookers were standing outside the door. When they heard footsteps coming from inside, they quickly ducked back and pretended to be doing their own thing.

Chi Feifan grabbed Jiang Wei, or more accurately, Jiang Wei's sleeve, and swept across the corridor like a gust of wind.

People around them glanced at him discreetly and saw that the blond-haired boy's face was as black as ink.

The two walked straight out of the inpatient department.

Jiang Wei, wearing high heels, couldn't keep up with Chi Feifan's pace, so Chi Feifan stopped.

"Xiao Fan, are you alright?" Jiang Wei asked, slightly out of breath.

Chi Feifan blinked hard at his swollen eyes, then turned back to look at her expressionlessly: "Hmm."

Before Jiang could speak again...

Chi Feifan frowned and asked, "Chi Jianye has never hit you before?"

Jiang Wei shook his head: "No, he used to be fairly polite to me, but I guess something really went wrong this time and he panicked."

"However, I've saved up a lot of money over the years, so even if something really happens to the Chi family, it won't have much of an impact on us."

If Jiang Wei and Chi Jianye really break up and get divorced, she won't be considered Chi Feifan's stepmother anymore.

But she still used "we".

For some reason, Chi Feifan suddenly remembered that Jiang Wei used to be the one to hold parent-teacher conferences for him.

"If this happens again, call the police..."

Chi Feifan paused, then looked away.

"Forget it, call me first before calling the police."

He was familiar with the clubs frequented by the group, the Chi family, and Chi Jianye; he could probably get there faster than the police.

After leaving the hospital, Jiang Wei took Chi Feifan to a place that Jiang Wei had bought a few years ago.

Jiang Wei didn't plan to go back today. Chi Jianye didn't know she had a house outside. She told Chi Feifan the password to this house.

Chi Feifan didn't say anything, but stayed outside until evening before going back.

Distracted by this matter, Chi Feifan was very tired and lost the will to question Qin Yi.

On his phone, Cheng Yuan kept calling him, asking what gift he really wanted.

If it weren't for Cheng Yuan and Jiang Weidu's unwavering birthday wishes to him every year, he probably would have forgotten about the date himself.

Chi Feifan was in a bad mood and thinking about things the whole way, and he didn't notice anything wrong when he entered the Hawk base.

When he got to the second floor and was about to go to Building B along the corridor, he suddenly realized that it was very dark around him.

The phone shows it's 8:05.

Where did everyone from the base go?

Logically, this should be their dinner time, the liveliest time of the day. But now it's quiet all around, and the monitors in the training room are all black.

Chi Feifan stood still, instinctively wanting to turn on his flashlight.

Just then, the crisp click of a lighter came from afar.

The bright yellow flame illuminated a small space, and Chi Feifan saw a hand holding a lighter lighting a candle.

And the candles seem to be... stuck on the cake.

Followed by.

Wang Kang's booming voice rang out in the darkness: "Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you!"

Although he was tone-deaf, he was confident enough to think he was the original singer.

Interspersed among them were Yu Xingchen's weak voice and Shen Shu's buzzing tone.

Chi Feifan thought he was seeing things and hallucinating.

He stared at the several blurry silhouettes approaching him: "How did you know it was my birthday?"

Wang Kang chuckled and nudged Qin Yi, who was holding the cake, with his elbow.

"Our team leader just told us this morning. We were in a rush and didn't have time to prepare properly, so we can only act as the atmosphere-building team."

Shen Shu had already become familiar with Wang Kang and the others, and upon hearing this, he added coldly, "Luckily I didn't tell you sooner, otherwise your big mouth would have definitely let it slip."

Wang Kang: "Hey—!"

Chi Feifan turned his gaze to Qin Yi in disbelief.

How did he know that?

Qin Yi immediately saw through what Chi Feifan was thinking.

He approached with the cake in his hand and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Your ex-boyfriend came to give you a birthday present yesterday, so I went to ask Aunt Jiang about it privately."

After saying that, Qin Yi smiled and said, "I told you I wanted to pursue you, how could I possibly let go of such a good opportunity to curry favor?"

Chi Feifan opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything for a moment.

The lights were off in the base, and the candlelight wasn't bright enough.

When Qin Yi got closer, he noticed a faint red tinge in Chi Feifan's eyes.

Although it was very subtle, Qin Yi still noticed it.

"Hmm?" Qin Yi lowered his eyes, his voice softening and slowing. "Did something unpleasant happen today? Who bullied you?"
