Ruan Xiao was completely stunned, and he remained frozen for a while before recovering from his shock. He felt a mixture of embarrassment and irritation. While he might not be as robust and strong as Feng Zhan, he was, after all, a legitimate Alpha. How could he be held like a doll in someone’s lap? The fact that the man holding him was also audaciously seeking his pheromones was even more perplexing. He wasn’t an Omega, so this behavior felt absolutely absurd!
Ruan Xiao couldn’t maintain his calm and composed demeanor any longer. He gritted his teeth and tried to push Feng Zhan away, saying, “Feng Zhan, put me down!”
Due to his limited use of his legs, he often relied on his arm strength. Although he had become thinner, his upper body remained fit with solid muscles in his arms. However, in front of Feng Zhan, his strength seemed insignificant.
Pressed against his robust chest, no matter how hard he struggled, Feng Zhan remained unmoved. Feng Zhan’s body was warm, and the hot breath he exhaled on Ruan Xiao’s neck sent shivers down his spine, making the hairs on his back stand on end.
Ruan Xiao could only push his head buried in his neck and say, “I told you last night; I’m not your ‘Ruan Ruan’! Get it straight; I’m an Alpha, not an Omega.”
Feng Zhan finally lifted his head, but he persisted, looking at Ruan Xiao with unwavering determination. “No, you are my ‘Ruan Ruan,’ the most important and beloved person to me.”
Ruan Xiao felt utterly overwhelmed. He couldn’t fathom how this once fierce and ruthless man had transformed into a tail-wagging pet dog, firmly believing that Ruan Xiao was his owner and resisting any attempt to drive him away.
Seeing Ruan Xiao’s anger, the man who used to be so dominant and ruthless now had a hint of grievance and a cautious look on his face. “Ruan Ruan, is it because I upset you before, that’s why you’re so harsh with me? But I’ve forgotten everything. Can you please not be angry? When I regain my memories, I’ll make it up to you…”
Ruan Xiao had no intention of listening to these words. His sole focus was on getting the man to put him back in his wheelchair.

He lifted his head, glaring at the man before him. Their eyes locked in a tense gaze, so close to each other, observing his anger and frustration.
Being an A+ level Alpha, Ruan Xiao’s looks were undoubtedly appealing. He had well-defined facial features, a handsome and clean appearance. Perhaps due to his infrequent outings, his skin was pale, the cool-toned kind of white. Combined with his upturned phoenix eyes at the corners, his expressionless face often gave off an aura of cold indifference.
However, his vexation and embarrassment at this moment added a touch of blush to his cheeks. His furrowed brows and the fierce glare of his phoenix eyes made his otherwise aloof expression stand out clearly.
Ruan Xiao’s angry look had a certain charm, but the mind of the bewildered Feng Zhan was blank. He felt that the way “Ruan Ruan” in his arms pretended to be fierce while staring at him with wide eyes was somewhat cute.
Feng Zhan didn’t want to put Ruan Xiao back in the wheelchair. He wanted to carry him to the bed…
Just as Feng Zhan was torn between taking action or not, the wind chime hanging at the shop’s entrance rang, indicating that someone had entered the store.
The living room and the shop were separated by only a door, and Ruan Xiao was concerned that customers might not hear, so he left the door open.
Feng Zhan clearly heard the sound of someone entering the store, so he finally decided to put Ruan Xiao back in the wheelchair.
Ruan Xiao’s face was tense, and it seemed that he was genuinely upset by Feng Zhan’s bold actions. He didn’t even look at the man behind him as he maneuvered the wheelchair into the shop.
The visitor was a high school girl who often frequented the shop, and this time she had come to return the books she had borrowed earlier.
Seeing Ruan Xiao come out of the room, the high school girl casually greeted him, “Boss, I’m here to return the books.”
The shop was located near the school, so most of the customers during regular days were students. Ruan Xiao had an introverted and aloof personality, and he couldn’t muster the kind of enthusiastic greetings. When customers arrived, he would simply say, “You’re here.”
But everyone appreciates beautiful things, and those students who hadn’t yet entered the workforce, with their pure thoughts, were no exception. Despite Ruan Xiao’s leg disability, his handsome face and neat attire made him stand out. As a result, lively students who came to borrow books or buy study materials would often strike up conversations with him, and over time, they became quite friendly with him.
The girl who came to return books today was evidently quite familiar with Ruan Xiao. She glanced around the empty shop and asked, “Boss, are you the only one here today? What happened to the previous store employee, the guy?”
Ruan Xiao regained his composure and registered the books as the girl handed him her library card. He responded gently, “He had some family matters to attend to, so he resigned.”
“Oh, he resigned?” The girl widened her eyes, and her gaze drifted down to Ruan Xiao’s legs. She asked with concern, “What about the shop? How will things be managed?”
Bringing up this issue, Ruan Xiao also felt a headache coming on. He spoke candidly, “We’re actively looking for a new employee, and we hope to find the right candidate before the school year starts.”
During the holiday season, Ruan Xiao could manage the shop with a smaller number of customers. However, once the students returned to school and the foot traffic increased, he realized that it would be challenging if they hadn’t found a suitable employee by then. He was unsure of how he would handle it.
The girl had selected her books but didn’t immediately leave. Instead, she pointed to the books still lying on the front desk, which Ruan Xiao hadn’t had a chance to return to the shelves.
She kindly offered, “Do these books need to be put back on the shelves? I can help with that…”
With her words, she started picking up a stack of books without waiting for Ruan Xiao’s response.
Ruan Xiao couldn’t bring himself to let a regular customer help with the work and quickly protested, “It’s alright, I can handle this. It’s not right to trouble you with this…”
The girl gave a playful smile and sneakily glanced at Ruan Xiao’s handsome face, saying, “Boss, we’re on friendly terms, no need to be so polite with me. I see there are so many books on the floor, and you can’t manage it all alone. It’s summer break for me today, and I don’t have much to do…”
She was so engrossed in her conversation with Ruan Xiao that she didn’t notice the person approaching from behind. While picking up books, she almost bumped into the oncoming Feng Zhan.
The sudden appearance of someone behind her startled the girl, and her eyes widened as she stared at the well-defined chest muscles accentuated by the tight-fitting shirt in front of her. It took her a few seconds to realize this, and when she lifted her head, she was met with the intense gaze of Feng Zhan’s sharp eyes at close range.
