The top floor of hotel S.
It was already early morning, and the tightly drawn curtains blocked the sunlight from the outside. The room was dark aside from a small night light in the corner.
There was a bulge on the bed; it seemed that someone was sleeping soundly.
“Hmm…”
Su Yuzhou woke up to an uncomfortable body. He wrinkled his face and struggled to sit up. Before he could think about what had happened, he smelled chestnuts mixed with cigarettes.
Su Yuzhou turned around.
There was a light shining in the corner of the room by the window.
Sitting on the sofa was a black-haired man with his elbows resting on his knees and a lit cigarette between his fingers. On the coffee table in front of him, the ashtray was full of burnt cigarette butts.
At this time, aware of his gaze, the man looked at him. He raised the cigarette to his lips and inhaled, then slowly exhaled the smoke.
“Awake?”
Due to the smoke, his hoarse voice was low and inexplicably magnetic.
Memories of last night came to mind. Su Yuzhou blushed. He was a little embarrassed and a little confused.
“Come here,” the man said.
Su Yuzhou pursed his lips and glanced under the quilt. He was wrapped in a nightgown, as opposed to being naked like he had feared.
Having lived two lifetimes, he wasn’t really 18 years old. After such a thing had happened, he found that he was quite calm. He sat on the bed for a while, and finally turned over the quilt and got out of bed.
The young man stepped barefoot on the cold floor, enduring the pain he felt, and walked to the sofa opposite the man and sat down.
“What do you want to say?” Su Yuzhou asked.
Su Qian raised his eyes and looked at the unusually calm young man in front of him.
There was shame and anger written in his eyes, but there was no violence in them. From last night until now, he always seemed to be breaking Su Qian’s impression of alphas.
Thinking of what he did on impulse last night, Su Qian frowned.
“How old are you?” Su Qian asked suddenly, looking up at the young man’s childish face.
Su Yuzhou turned his face away, and said reluctantly, “Eighteen.”
Su Qian paused, he had just become an adult…
However, past experience told him that alphas were dogs regardless of age, and there was no need to have any expectations for them.
The only exception was the alpha in front of him.

“Yesterday night, you were the one who broke into my elevator,” Su Qian said.
Without this as an impetus, the subsequent series of mistakes would not have followed.
Su Yuzhou looked at him: “I followed you into the elevator last night because I wanted to remind you that you dropped a blue pendant in the hospital corridor that day. I picked it up and left it with the doctor.”
“I’m not skilled at controlling my pheromones. That day, I didn’t mean to leak pheromones at you, and I’m sorry if I accidentally offended you.”
Su Qian looked up at him.
His eyes were very clean, the pupils were a translucent chestnut color, they were round like almonds and looked brighter because of annoyance, but still pure.
He had a beautiful face, but he didn’t look like an omega. Rather, he had an upright, gentle, and comfortable appearance.
This time, Su Yuzhou did not hide away from his gaze.
The man’s aura was very strong, even more intimidating than the alpha coaches at school, especially his dark eyes which seemed to be able to read people’s hearts.
However, he didn’t want to show weakness in front of him again.
The two faced off for a while, before Su Qian finally spoke, “Last night, we were both responsible, to a certain extent.”
Su Yuzhou bit his lip, it really was him who had started it, and even tore off this man’s clothes…
Everything was too chaotic last night.
He would occasionally hear about such an accident in the gossip of the people around him, but he never thought that he would become the protagonist in such an incident, and…
The AO’s role was reversed.
“For you, the damage of this incident was greater, and I can compensate you for it.”
Su Qian muttered in a low voice, “Although, I was just defending myself…”
If he didn’t resist, the victim would be himself.
“Then why didn’t you just knock me out?” Su Yuzhou whispered.
Su Qian ignored him.
Maybe his reaction was too extreme, but as an Omega who was harassed and humiliated by an Alpha, should he still be rational and friendly to this Alpha?
He wasn’t a good person. If it weren’t for the fact that he did act out under his rage, then the Alpha in front of him would be waking up in prison today.
He paused and continued: “If you accept my compensation, then let’s talk about the future.”
“Future?” Su Yuzhou was slightly taken aback, “What future?”
Su Qian looked at him and spoke out the decision he had reflected on all night: “In the next month, I hope to maintain the relationship I had with you last night. You can mention whatever conditions you have.”
“I don’t understand, what do you mean by…maintaining last night’s relationship?” Su Yuzhou looked at him in confusion.
“Last night, we…”
Su Yuzhou choked. “Are you kidding me?”
Su Qian looked at the angry and embarrassed young man; this request was humiliating for any alpha, and this reaction was unsurprising.
“I’m not joking,” he said seriously, “I have my reasons, you just need to tell me whether you agree or not.”
“Bang!” The door of the hotel room was slammed shut.
As soon as Su Yuzhou returned to his room, he quickly took off his T-shirt and shorts, and rushed into the bathroom.
Cold water poured down from the shower head. Facing the spray, he wiped his face roughly.
“Hm–!”
Just because he used a little force, there was a burst of soreness in his body; he couldn’t help baring his teeth and rubbing the part that hurt.
After rubbing his whole body vigorously with shower gel, he turned off the shower and walked out of the bathroom.
After rummaging through his suitcase for some lounge clothes and putting it on, he threw himself down on the sofa while wiping his hair with a towel.
The result was another burst of pain in his body.
Bastard! Su Yuzhou cursed in a low voice, gasping for breath on the sofa with a wrinkled face.
He obviously rejected Su Qian’s proposal, and he didn’t even bother to ask for any compensation.
At this moment the phone vibrated. He took a look and found that it was a call from his father.
In his current state, he didn’t want to answer the phone. Su Yuzhou hesitated for a while, and finally watched the call disconnect because no one answered.
A missed call notification appeared.
After a while, his father sent a text message.
Dad: [Is Zhouzhou still sleeping? ]
Dad: [Although it is a holiday, don’t sleep so late. The room your mother booked for you includes three meals a day. Remember to eat when you wake up.]
Su Yuzhou pretended that he had just woken up, and then returned an “OK.”
He didn’t move but continued to lie on the sofa and opened the take-out app. After placing the order and paying, it was delivered in less than 20 minutes.
When he opened the plastic bag, it contained two catties of fried chestnuts with sugar.
There was no other way, from last night until now, he had been craving chestnuts. Although he took a shower, his body still smelled like chestnuts.
The smell hooked him and let his heart feel itchy. Thinking of this, Su Yuzhou’s face became hot.
He knew why – he still had traces of Su Qian’s pheromone on his body, and it was probably thanks to them that although his rut had come early, he was still able to stay sober.
According to the education he received, an alpha’s rut is very scary.
The susceptible period is about a month, and there will be intermittent flare-ups during the period. Each flare-up lasts for at least one day. When it occurs, the alpha is driven by instinct, only thinking about doing ‘that.’
Of course, injecting inhibitors can effectively solve this situation, but because he just reached maturity, it was not recommended to use a strong inhibitor during his first rut.
He had a flare-up last night and didn’t take any inhibitors. Why was he fine?
Apart from his status as an elite alpha, the only other possibility was what Su Qian and he did together.
Su Yuzhou peeled the chestnuts and stuffed them into his mouth one by one.
The freshly fried chestnuts still had a little residual warmth, and felt soft and sweet in his mouth. After eating one, he couldn’t stop eating the next. After eating all of them, he smacked his lips.
Touching his full stomach as he reclined on the sofa, Su Yuzhou turned on the TV to watch a variety show. Although it was normally a show he enjoyed, he kept getting distracted today.
He hugged a pillow tightly, and curled up with it in his arms.
Su Yuzhou didn’t know when he fell asleep.
In his sleep, he could always smell the aroma of chestnuts.
When he was woken up by the doorbell, he found that it was getting dark outside. He got up and stretched. He slept for too long and was a little stiff, but his back was no longer sore.
“Ding-dong-” the doorbell rang again.
Su Yuzhou hurried over to open the door.
When he saw the waiter of the hotel outside the door, a trace of loss appeared in his heart, but he didn’t understand why he felt so.
“Hello, sir,” the waiter who was pushing a dining car called.
Su Yuzhou came back to his senses. He looked at the food on the dining car and remembered that his father had said that the hotel he booked included three meals a day, so he didn’t think much about it, and moved aside to let the waiter into the room.
Unexpectedly, before leaving, the waiter handed him a bag and said, “This is what Mr. Su asked me to give to you.”
…. Sounds tasty
Mmmmmmmwuahh~!! chef kiss
Thanks for the chapter (･´з`･)♡♥♡.
Liking it so far! Thanks for the chapter.
Hmmm I really don’t like the ML so far. He’s incredibly … whatever the ABO equivalent to sexist is. I can understand why he’s like that and that’s fine. But it really rubs me the wrong way that he thinks he’s justified in raping the MC just because he’s had bad experiences with other Alphas.Then, he has the balls to ask about to “maintaining the relationship”? The MC didn’t run away because of his ‘Alpha Pride’ being humiliated. He ran cause you raped him and he doesn’t want to get raped again. jfc.
Give food to your uncle you double standard hypocrite
Firstly, it isn’t so easy to develop and maintain relationship! Secondly, I would like to eat chestnuts now…
Thank You for the new chapter (｡’▽’｡)♡
So far I want to knock out SQ myself. Yes, most Alphas in those stories are just walking raping machines and I bet SQ experienced enough shit in his life so far. But just as SYZ said, he could have solved it differently and not just do what he himself don’t want to have done to him (again maybe?). At least he could say a word to apologize for what happened. You just raped another person, that’s the truth Dx
Thx for the ch :3
Agree on that! 🙌🏻
He could have just knocked him out. There’s no need to do anything extreme, given how he try to help him and hold on for his sanity that long…
Did he forget that he’s a top omega? He should be more understanding of his situation and how it would affect those alphas around him…
💙💙💙
Thank you so much!!
Lol… craving man, eat chestnuts 😄. Noted. And, continue the relationship? He could just ask for Su Qian’s chestnut flavored neck as one of his conditions 😄. Sounds fair.
Just noticed that both their surname are “Su” 😧
maybe just the surname match its common
Yeah, it definitely makes telling them apart harder
Thank you for the translation!!! <3
Thank you for the translations.
What alpha pride you mf raped him and have the audacity to ask to ‘continue it’
