The two returned to the temporary hotel. Zhou Yan originally planned to eat dinner and then go around the streets, and inquire about the news about Lurian in order to confirm whether the news had officially appeared in the official bulletin.

The plan was good, but there was an accident during dinner.

Luo Futu had a recurrence of his old injury.

It happened without any warning. When Zhou Yan was ready to go out, Luo Futu was still eating and said, “Go ahead, be careful on the way.”

Zhou Yan was just about to say “yes” when he saw a trace of blood slowly flowing out of the corner of his mouth, which crossed the corner of his slightly upturned mouth and flowed down his chin, before it dripped onto his collarbone, which was particularly striking against his pale skin.

Zhou Yan was confused for a moment. “What happened to you?”

Luo Futu frowned slightly. “I’m fine….”

Then, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

Zhou Yan was shocked by him and hurriedly helped him to sit on the bed, but he didn’t expect his hand to touch the wound on his shoulder. The blood that had been stopped long ago also came out through the bandage.

“The wound is open? Why is it bleeding again…. What did you do?”

Zhou Yan could not care about anything else; he went to the box containing the gifts to find only half of the remaining hemostatic powder. He then asked the store attendants to prepare hot water and strong wine. Luo Futu’s wound opening was very frightening, and Zhou Yan was very worried that he would die.

Luo Futu covered the wound and frowned, and the little blood left on his face faded quickly. “Maybe it’s because…. I’m sorry to trouble you again.”

Zhou Yan heard him say such things and frowned slightly. “What nonsense, the injury thing is still because of me….”

Zhou Yan cut the bandage on his chest and poured a bunch of hemostatic powder on it. However, the originally very good medicinal powder had no effect at all this time as it was washed away by the blood flow when poured on it. Even with pressure and binding, the blood could not be stopped. He could not hold back. He kept wiping Luo Futu’s wounds, and his hands couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

“How could this happen…. How can this be?! Obviously the bleeding had stopped!”

Luo Futu frowned tightly and grabbed Zhou Yan’s wrist. “It’s okay…. Take it easy.”

Zhou Yan vaguely remembered that in the past, some soldiers who were wounded by monsters like Lurian would also bleed. Due to the advanced technology of Dense Cloud Planet, the medicine was also very mature, so it would have a great effect. However, this was the backward Zedoary Continent, and there were only a few treatment methods at hand. There was no guarantee that he could be saved….

“If I die, will you be sad?”

When Zhou Yan heard this, he looked up sharply and saw that Luo Futu was staring at him intently. The expression on his face was unexpectedly normal— even a little fragile because of his injuries. “You’re a rare collaborator.”

Luo Futu was not very satisfied with this answer. “Just because I’m a collaborator?”

Zhou Yan pressed his wound. “Don’t talk nonsense, I won’t let you die.”

“What if I die right away?”

“No!!!”

….

Zhou Yan heard himself yell extra loudly, and then he woke up. He came back to his senses and found himself sitting on the bed, breathing heavily; his hands were not red with Luo Futu’s blood, and Luo Futu was not by his side.

‘…. What happened? Was it just a dream? Why would he have such a dream?’

“You’re having nightmares again?”

A voice came from the side and brought Zhou Yan back to his senses. He looked sideways and saw Luo Futu sitting under the window as before, with a silver jug and a small cup in front of him.

Zhou Yan’s mouth was dry from dreaming, so he got up from the bed and without saying a word, grabbed the cup from his hand and drank it down.

‘…. Was it wine?’

Luo Futu looked at him with some surprise. “A huge amount.”

Zhou Yan swallowed the liquid in his mouth with difficulty. “Sitting here drinking in the middle of the night without sleeping? Don’t you know that you are injured?”

Luo Futu carelessly smiled and snatched the glass from his hand to fill it again. “It’s okay, my body is fine.”

However, he had just had that dream, and Zhou Yan’s heart was palpitating. He sat down beside him expressionlessly and gently took away his glass. “Don’t drink.”

Luo Futu looked at him inexplicably, as if trying to see some emotion in his expressionless face. However, Zhou Yan did not show any special expression and only tightened his grip on the glass. His eyes glanced at the bandage on his chest from time to time— it was very flat and did not show any signs of breaking.

It seems that the dreams were the opposite, perhaps it was because he was very afraid of Lurians deep in his soul that he had such dreams.

Luo Futu lifted his hand to gently support his jaw and looked at him with a smile. “What if I have to drink?”

“….”

Zhou Yan stared at him for a few seconds and could barely hold back the corners of his mouth. ‘If it was really a dream, how could Luo Futu have such a normal expression on his face? He was forever looking at him with such a perverted expression.’

Zhou Yan was silent when Luo Futu snapped the glass out of his hand, and before he could react, the latter had already tilted his head and drained the wine from the glass. He then poured another glass.

“By the way, why do you always have nightmares lately? What exactly did you dream about? Screaming ‘no—’ and sitting up in bed, scaring me.”

Zhou Yan heard him mention the dream again and was inexplicably annoyed. “Nothing, I can’t remember.”

Luo Futu looked at him without moving. “You used to have nightmares too?”

Zhou Yan was struck speechless by his question. He looked left and right before he suddenly picked up the glass of wine in front of him, poured it into his mouth, and then swallowed it hard.

‘Good question, before? He used to be someone who didn’t even need psychological counseling to kill someone for the first time in battle, he was so tough that his instructors thought there was something wrong with him. How did he know that he was having one dream after another lately, and that the dreams were full of unspeakable scenes that were annoying as hell?’

Luo Futu stared at the knot of Zhou Yan’s throat that slid up and down as he swallowed his drink before he then fetched another cup to fill it up for both of them.

“Actually, as a collaborator, you can tell me anything you have in mind.”

Zhou Yan coldly glanced at him— this protagonist who had recently occupied all his dreams had the good sense to say such things in a dignified manner, it was simply unsettling, people today were hairy!

“Don’t be nosy.”

“….”

‘Well, Zhou Yan was still the same Zhou Yan who did not open his heart to him just because of one or two dreams, huh? What a headache.’ Luo Futu stared at him, picked up his wine, and drank it.

Zhou Yan’s recent dreams were naturally related to Luo Futu: he was a mystic who was proficient in various sorcery spells and wanted to manipulate a person’s dreams naturally and easily. He didn’t mean to play this tactic, but Zhou Yan’s speech today made him feel strongly uncomfortable, so he tried it out.

Luo Futu squinted his eyes, and his eyelashes almost turned a transparent color under the moonlight. He used his hand to cover the lower half of his face, hiding his snake-like possessiveness.

‘I hate this kind of unmanageable situation.’

Luo Futu knew that Zhou Yan was not someone who could be controlled. However, it was impossible for him to brush himself aside after trying to cooperate, and no one could walk away from a situation after messing with him.

“Is it good?” Luo Futu saw Zhou Yan finish the wine in his glass and then pour himself another one.

Zhou Yan said casually, “It’s okay, I don’t like it very much.”

The fact that there were no special hobbies, and no obsessions, proved that he had no weaknesses, and Luo Futu hates people without weaknesses because they were not easy to control. When the person he cares about had no weaknesses, he was suddenly at a loss.

‘He couldn’t break Zhou Yan’s arms and legs and lock him up. According to Zhou Yan’s character, that would definitely create a fish-death situation. The good thing was, he still cared about himself in the dream. Zhou Yan seemed to eat this: he pitied the weak. But in reality, he wondered if he would have such outgoing emotions.’

‘After all, he seemed to have almost allowed himself to bite his glands in the dream, only to wake up and turn the other cheek like a scumbag.’

‘It’s good to try.’

Luo Futu took advantage of tilting his head back to drink. His fingers gently scratched on the wound, and the clean bandage immediately showed the color of blood.

Zhou Yan put down the cup while Luo Futu was drinking his cup, and his eyes inadvertently swept over. He suddenly found his bandage seeping blood.

Zhou Yan stood up sharply, and he roughly closed his eyes before he opened them again to see that the red smear was still there and he was not blind.

Luo Futu looked down and laughed. “It probably split open by accident, it’s nothing.”

“Come here!” Zhou Yan grabbed Luo Futu’s hand and pulled him up. He dragged him to the edge of the bed and quickly brought scissors and bandages. When it came time to remove the bandages, Zhou Yan hesitated as he was afraid that after the bandages were removed, like in the dream, his bleeding would not stop.

‘…. After all, that was also the situation that would really happen.’

“What’s wrong? Why don’t you do it?”

Zhou Yan heard Luo Futu’s voice, and finally came back to his senses. He froze for a moment, and slowly cut open the bandage. When the wound inside was revealed, Zhou Yan almost dared to not look closely. Luo Futu suddenly laughed. “What the hell is wrong with you? It’s like you’re removing a bandage from a bomb, like you do not want to remove it. Anyway, there is nothing wrong.”

“No,” Zhou Yan said quickly and quietly before he cut off the rest. “I need to change the medicine, but also check the wound.”

Luo Futu raised his eyebrows and let him do it. He looked a bit puzzled because Zhou Yan just acted more concerned than he thought he would be.

Luo Futu got the answer he wanted and was very satisfied.

The bandage was removed and the wound, which had already healed, had only broken off a small edge. Zhou Yan was relieved to see the condition of the wound.

Luo Futu hated his healthy physique and should have put it off for at least a few days. However, he said, “See, I told you it was nothing, it just split open accidentally.”

Zhou Yan gave him a look, didn’t say anything, and silently wrapped a new bandage around him.

Luo Futu stared at him with a smile in his eyes. “You are very concerned about me.”

Zhou Yan said casually, “As a collaborator.”

“Just a collaborator?”

This conversation, which overlapped with the dream, caused some confusion in Zhou Yan’s mind. He did not answer, and in the next second, Luo Futu suddenly approached him. Zhou Yan subconsciously backed up, but he was sitting on the edge of the bed, so when he backed up, his back directly leaned on the railing of the bed.

Luo Futu stared into his eyes, and two arms loosely circled him, almost wrapping Zhou Yan into his arms. “Do you want to think about a different kind of relationship?”

Zhou Yan refused quickly, “No need.”

Luo Futu curled his lips. “Why? You clearly do not resent it.”

Zhou Yan looked at him expressionlessly, and his mind was also thinking, ‘Why? Why was the first reaction to reject Luo Futu’s offer, when in fact he didn’t hate him either?’ His breath puffed with the smell of alcohol, making Zhou Yan a bit intoxicated. If it was someone else, he might have punched him directly.

Zhou Yan couldn’t understand, and he didn’t bother to think about it. “If you tease me again, the partnership will end here.”

Luo Futu felt very wronged. “I’m not teasing you.”

“So what are you doing now? Or are you just being a possessive alpha?”

“You have stereotypes about alphas, and I’m not that kind of person.”

‘If he wasn’t, that would be weird.’

‘But the real reason was not because of this either….’

Zhou Yan stared at him for a long time. He really couldn’t figure it out. Unless he said that it was because he suddenly changed from an alpha to an omega and couldn’t adjust to his gender, there was no way to fully explain it. In fact, when he thought about it, he really did not have to resist so much.

Maybe it was because he resisted too strongly that he kept having this kind of dream. He hadn’t had that kind of desire before, because after using inhibitors, being an alpha doesn’t actively create a need, but the situation became very different after he became an omega. Even after using inhibitors, he would have thoughts that he shouldn’t have.

‘Could it be that the body structure and hormonal fluctuations of an omega were different from those of an alpha?’

Zhou Yan had not studied omegas carefully, but only knew that when it came to sexual maturity, omegas would indeed undergo some changes. The difference was obvious, and the estrus of alphas were a passive estrus, but omegas would be in an active estrus.

Zhou Yan could not tell if this was related, but he only knew that he had to solve this matter as soon as possible and not let such trivial matters affect his judgment. He had recently become increasingly irrational. Zhou Yan looked at Luo Futu for a long time and his expression slowly softened. “Okay.” He straightened up and pushed Luo Futu to keep him away from him. “I admit, I really don’t hate you. If there is a need in the future, I will give you priority.”

“….” Luo Futu froze and subconsciously asked, “What do you mean?”

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows at him. “Literally.”

‘The literal meaning was, he would get the priority to date him. How could this person be like this?’

Zhou Yan stood up with an enlightened look on his face. “I don’t really understand, but when you think about it, somehow giving in to pheromone or dopamine doesn’t have an impact on my life…. And of course, you can refuse.”

Luo Futu’s face immediately darkened. “What if I refuse you?”

Zhou Yan was thinking seriously. “You’re not the only alpha in the world….”

“No! Wait! Yes!” Luo Futu loudly interrupted his next words, stood up violently, and then grabbed Zhou Yan’s collar as he pulled him towards him. He said word by word, “Listen to me, I will absolutely make you have no time to care about others. If you really just find someone outside, if you find even one, I will kill them.”

“…. You don’t have to be so scary, okay?”

Luo Futu stared at him coldly. “You can try it if you don’t believe me.”

Luo Futu didn’t know what kind of journey Zhou Yan had gone through to suddenly go from being extremely conservative to this…. The idea was that he could just find someone, but his intention was definitely not to get a position from Zhou Yan as the “chief fuck buddy”.

…. Just thinking about it made him furious!

Zhou Yan looked him up and down and said calmly, “Let go of me first.”

Luo Futu did not let go of him, and he suddenly squeezed Zhou Yan’s jaw as he said with hatred, “Why can’t you act like a normal omega?”

Zhou Yan couldn’t help but frown. He didn’t have a chance to say anything before Luo Futu kissed him hard. Zhou Yan was pushed back a few steps, and finally hit the wall hard. Luo Futu rolled and nibbled on his lips before he pried open his teeth, and then drove straight into his mouth…. In this way, he vented his anger. 

Then in the next second, Luo Futu had a cold gun pointed at his head.

Zhou Yan panted and stared at Luo Futu. “I’m not in need right now, so don’t touch me.”

Luo Futu stared at him without saying anything, and Zhou Yan suddenly realized that he seemed to have gone a bit too far. He put the gun away and said haphazardly, “You can go find someone else.”

Luo Futu stood alone for a long time, suddenly covering his face and letting out an eerie laugh. ‘Good, good, then he would wait until the day he needed him…. This bastard!’
