Chapter 32: Silent Affection

This time, Man Ye had a clear target, focusing on the silver-haired Alpha's hand.

In his hand was a brilliantly blooming white rose.

This...

Man Ye's nearly expressionless face finally showed signs of cracking.

Bai Wei, in Man Ye's predictions, was a pretty, delicate little darling. He was so sure because five years ago, by chance, he had obtained a blurry image of Bai Wei.

That image was extremely vague, almost a fleeting glimpse. The captured photo was likewise indistinct, showing only the dim\] outlines of a long-haired beauty in a wide hood, holding a silver-gray cat whose details were hard to make out. The hood was so broad that only the lower half of the beauty's exquisite face and some light-colored hair falling onto her shoulders could be seen. It was hard to tell if her skin was excessively pale, but her lips appeared extremely red.

Petite, beautiful, exuding an otherworldly charm; just one glance and Man Ye was certain Bai Wei was a gorgeous and adorable Omega. But now, the white rose—a token of their meeting—was being held by a male Alpha. Even if this Alpha possessed unparalleled beauty, Man Ye was reluctant to acknowledge it.

His gaze lingered on the white rose for a moment before he withdrew it.

It must be a mistake.

Damn, but the other person really did have silver hair, just like in the image!

Ji Chenxi was genuinely reluctant to meet an old online friend in such an undignified manner, yet his affectionate display with another Alpha was caught in plain sight.

Ji Chenxi shot a cryptic glance at Chi Zhuo, who could tell he wasn't pleased. After all, the twinkle in his starry eyes had faded significantly.

"Since you've already recognized my friend, did you intentionally kiss me to provoke me?" Ji Chenxi murmured.

Chi Zhuo: "Yes, but also no."

He had expected an Omega to show up, but instead, it was clearly an Alpha—one capable of concealing his presence so well that Ji Chenxi wouldn't have needed Chi Zhuo to remind him.

"Your friend doesn't seem simple. For your safety, it might be better if I stayed with you," Chi Zhuo suggested.

"I feel like my safety is truly compromised being with you, Brother Chi Zhuo."

After saying this, Ji Chenxi released his hold on Chi Zhuo's neck and moved towards Man Ye. As he walked, he took out a handkerchief embroidered with roses to wipe his lips and the inner wrist that Chi Zhuo had just kissed, casually tossing it into a trash can designed to quickly dispose of items.

His light, casual words and indifferent actions seemed to indicate that everything that had just happened was hardly worth considering.

Chi Zhuo, who remained still, had a tense expression, his palms clenched tightly, and before long, a faint metallic scent of blood seeped from his hands.

Before that slight scent could dissipate, it was swiftly licked away by a suddenly materializing black mamba snake, which also masked the recently released pheromones with its damp, cold aura.

As Ji Chenxi approached with the white rose, Man Ye had already shifted his gaze back to the newcomer.

The killer's instincts told him instantly that this wasn't just an ordinary Alpha.

Though the slender, tall frame appeared delicate, it could unleash a terrifying power that didn't match its size. If this was an opponent, it would be a formidable rival.
