[Esports] Team Leader Xie, your mid laner is causing trouble again.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jichuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly climbed onto the bed.

She nestled down next to Li Zhi and then quietly nuzzled Li Zhi's arm with her shoulder.

Like a large dog wagging its tail happily, longing to be petted on the head or something.

Li Zhi's earlier anxiety and anger subsided, and she couldn't help but smile slightly.

He patted Xie Jichuan's body, which was subtly trying to get closer, his tone carrying a hint of indulgence he himself was unaware of:

"Come closer, I'll apply the medicine for you."

Upon hearing this, Alpha immediately moved to a different position.

Two long legs were bent and spread apart, enveloping Li Zhi between them, forming a semi-enclosed posture.

Li Zhi blushed and felt hot at his sudden action, her ear tips burning uncontrollably.

But Xie Jichuan's face had already obediently come over, with an expectant expression on his face as he waited for the medicine to be applied.

Li Zhi had no choice but to force herself to focus her gaze on the red marks and not look anywhere else, and began to concentrate on applying the medicine.

The skin on her face was delicate, and the red marks left by the metal edge looked shocking.

Li Zhi moved gently, applying the medicine little by little with a cotton swab.

After applying the medicine, he tidied up the medicine bottles while sternly reprimanding a certain Alpha who was currently acting out of character:

"I know that Alphas have to wear anti-bite devices in public places during their vulnerable period, but there are only the two of us in the room. If you wear it, you'll just hurt yourself. It's not worth it."

He spoke with reason and conviction, and put the medicine bottle back on the bedside table. Turning around, he was speechless to find that the anti-bite device had returned to Xie Jichuan's face intact.

The metal fence gleamed coldly under the light, and the belt wrapped around his cheeks and was tied neatly behind his head, even more so than before.

Li Zhi was silent for three seconds: "...Are you provoking me?"

Alpha tilted his head, his eyes blank.

Clearly, his atrophied brain at this moment could not comprehend the somewhat sophisticated human word "provocation."

Li Zhi took a deep breath and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Take it off."

Xie Jichuan shook his head.

Li Zhi took a deep breath, held back her anger, and lowered her voice a notch: "I'll let you take it off."

This time, Xie Jichuan sensed Li Zhi's anger through the pheromones floating in the air.

He hesitated for two seconds, his eyes flickered, but he still shook his head, his voice muffled as it came from behind the metal fence:

"You can't pick them."

Li Zhi could no longer bear it, and her voice finally rose uncontrollably:

"Then get off the bed! I hate seeing you when you don't listen!"

Xie Jichuan understood this sentence.

When they told him to get out of bed, he said he was annoying.

A hint of displeasure flashed in Alpha's eyes. He didn't get out of bed; instead, he straightened his back even more, expressing his resistance through his actions. His voice was muffled:

"I'm not going down."

"Hey!" Li Zhi rolled up her sleeves, revealing her two fair forearms, and pretended to hit him. "You want to talk back ten times for every one thing you say, huh?"

As soon as the hand was raised, the tall and mighty Alpha shrank his neck, pulled his shoulders together, and looked weak and pitiful.

No matter how tall or big a dog is, when it shrinks down, it's just a big dog with its tail between its legs.

Looking at his cowardly appearance, Li Zhi inexplicably thought of that meme of hitting a puppy online, and couldn't help but laugh. Her anger just now dissipated instantly.

He waved his hand: "Fine, do whatever you want, I don't care anymore."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to get out of bed, but before his feet even touched the ground, something hooked around his waist.

Xie Jichuan pulled his legs together, and Li Zhi was firmly embedded in the Alpha's embrace.

His back pressed against Xie Jichuan's chest, and he could feel the powerful beating of Xie's heart inside that body, one beat after another, fast and heavy.

The worst part was that he could clearly feel the metallic biting device gently rubbing against the most sensitive part of the skin on the back of his neck.

The cold, hard metal scraped against the soft flesh surrounding the gland.

At the same time, scalding hot breath wafted out from the gaps in the fence, like trying to quench thirst by looking at plums.

Xie Jichuan's aggrieved voice came from above: "I'll be obedient. Don't go looking for anyone else, only me."

Kurichi, who just wanted to go downstairs for a drink of water: "..."

I thought he was leaving.

Li Zhi felt a mix of helplessness and amusement, which surged within her and transformed into a mischievous urge to tease others.

He didn't rush to explain, but deliberately kept a straight face and spoke in a high and cold tone:

"Are you really obedient?"

"Okay, be a good boy/girl."

"Then let go of me first."

Xie Jichuan truly let go of Li Zhi.

But his gaze was fixed on the small patch of skin on the back of Li Zhi's neck where teeth marks were still visible.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he ground his teeth.

Li Zhi, completely oblivious, turned to face Xie Jichuan, arrogantly raised one foot, and offered it as if issuing a decree:

"Then put on my socks."

"it is good."

Without the slightest hesitation or doubt, Xie Jichuan immediately grabbed the socks at the foot of the bed, grabbed Li Zhi's feet, and put them on.

His movements were somewhat clumsy, but his expression was so focused that it was as if he were doing the most important thing in the world.

After putting both feet on, Xie Jichuan didn't let go, but instead placed the two feet, which were wearing white socks, side by side on his legs.

Arranged neatly, gazing at them with doting eyes, she reached out and gently patted her toes with her palm, her tone tender:

"Good girl."

Li Zhi: "…………"

He looked at the Alpha in front of him, who was radiating affection towards his feet, with a complicated expression:

Are you... praising them?

Xie Jichuan nodded seriously: "Yes."

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and added, his tone becoming even more serious:

"You are the master, you are the best."

Li Zhi's cheeks flushed red instantly.

The dog-like appearance made Li Zhi misunderstand that the "owner" in the sentence meant Xie Jichuan's owner, not the owner of those feet.

His face flushed, and he took advantage of the situation, raising his chin and his voice becoming slightly pink:

"So obedient? Then you'll have to serve me rice every day from now on."

"it is good."

"They come to support me in every game."

"it is good."

"If the coach scolds me, you have to step up and take the blame."

"it is good."

"Then call me King Lychee."

"King Lychee".

Call me Boss Lychee.

"Boss Lychee."

Seeing his dazed and helpless expression as he was being bullied, Li Zhi couldn't help but secretly turn on her phone to record the conversation.

He cleared his throat and said casually, "Then call me 'husband' again."

Xie Jichuan fell silent.

Li Zhi nudged his thigh with her toe and urged, "What are you standing there for? Call me husband."

Xie Jichuan remained silent.

Li Zhi, refusing to believe it, shouted loudly, "Call me husband! Husband—"

The Alpha, who had been keeping silent, seamlessly replied:

"it is good."

Li Zhi felt she had been taken advantage of, and her face immediately fell.

He was so angry that he threw his phone on the bed, turned around, got out of bed, and stormed out.

How can Xie Jichuan be so cunning even during his sensitive period!

He stopped abruptly halfway through his journey.

Alphas are in a vulnerable period, and if an Omega leaves the territory rashly, it may worsen the situation.

Li Zhi took a deep breath, circulated it twice in her chest, and then sighed.

With drooping shoulders, it turned back, all furry.

Xie Jichuan was already standing on the ground, clearly preparing to chase after him.

Seeing that Li Zhi had returned to the bed, his eyes lit up, and he lifted his foot to follow her.

"You're not allowed up here!" Li Zhi said fiercely. "Go sit on your little stool!"

Alpha slowly uttered an "oh," his tall frame shrinking onto a small stool beside the tiny hospital bed.

With his knees bent and chin resting on them, and his hands wrapped around his knees, he curled up into a huge, pitiful ball.

Every pore on my body seemed to scream: I want to go to bed.
