Chapter 43: Staying Over

"The prince already has the answer in his heart."

Implying that since there's already an answer in mind, why bother asking? What if Chi Zhuo's answer wasn't what he wanted?

"I'm giving you the right to choose." Ji Chenxi's hand, which had been lightly patting the space beside him, suddenly paused, emitting an ambiguous sound of dissatisfaction, then he realized something and lay down, not wanting to communicate with Chi Zhuo anymore.

This wasn't enough; Ji Chenxi even pulled the blanket up, completely hiding himself under the covers.

With his eyes closed, Ji Chenxi pretended to be asleep, but soon he heard faint rustling sounds.

Footsteps approached and then receded. It seemed Ji Chenxi had blocked out everything from the outside, but the pheromones drifting in the air allowed him to sense Chi Zhuo's movements. Moreover, his hearing and perception were sharp.

The bathroom?

Although he knew Chi Zhuo wouldn't jump out of the window from the bathroom, Ji Chenxi still felt uneasy, not having fully recovered from his sensitive period.

Only when he heard the sound of running water did he pull down the blanket that had completely covered his head, breathing in the fresh air.

The two had just been through quite a bit; even though he had bathed today, he no longer felt the dryness he had earlier. Being disturbed for so long during his sensitive period, Ji Chenxi felt a sticky sensation on his body. The calm he had just managed to achieve became frustrating once again.

It was really annoying!

He also wanted to take a shower; no, he wanted to soak in a bath! But it felt strange for someone trying to play ostrich to suddenly act nonchalant and go take a shower.

Feeling frustrated, Ji Chenxi wrapped himself back up, forcing himself to close his eyes and sleep, but the more he tried, the more alert he became.

His fists tightened, his neatly trimmed nails instinctively wanting to poke into his palm, attempting to relieve his irritation through pain. This was something he often did during his sensitive period, but just before his nails broke the skin, he halted.

The pheromones spread throughout the entire second floor; in other words, anywhere the pheromones were present could be considered Ji Chenxi's territory. He didn't deliberately extend his mental energy to probe his surroundings because the pheromones could vaguely feedback fragmented information.

He could feel the pheromones ambiguous as they flowed over the other's chest, taking away some of the other alpha's scent.

In this extreme state of ambiguity, the two types of pheromones seemed to merge, but Ji Chenxi was certain they hadn't truly combined—just like no matter how much he bit Chi Zhuo's gland, he couldn't truly achieve a temporary mark.

This was another point that had made him extremely irritated earlier; what seemed like merging pheromones were mostly just two different scents mixed together.

During this process, Ji Chenxi gradually calmed down again. The mist from the water made it seem like he could see things he shouldn't see through the pheromones.

Water flowed over the broad back, the sexy chest, down the slim waist, and onto the strong thighs.

Ji Chenxi tilted his head, realizing that perhaps leaving Chi Zhuo behind wasn't a good choice.

His throat moved slightly; the sound of water made him feel a bit thirsty.

He thought about getting up to drink some water, but such an action would definitely attract Chi Zhuo's attention.
