[风情 | FengQing]: You Are Giving Me Christmas In Mid-Summer [TGCF ABO Universe]

★Part 25: (Four) Students And (Two) Brains

The fact that Hua Cheng was leaning over the bulky Alpha's shoulder as the two of them approached the table, and Feng Xin did not give him a new, black-and-blue face color, probably was telling enough: the bouncer was really deep in thought.

And Xie Lian, seeing his own husband barely walking, made both Omegas now gape at him, because it was the first time, in a very long time, that the Alpha actually smelled worried.

- San... Lang? – he mumbled, amazed at the too-happy expression on his lover's face.

- GEGE!!!

The tall Beta now staggered, but managed to sit right next to his concerned husband, still squeeing the whiskey bottle in his hand.

- GeGe, we MUST get some more of this! - he now dangled the half-empty thing in front of Xie Lian's nose. – It's... sooooooooooo good!!!

Mu Qing rolled his eyes.

- Yea... it only costs---

- A-Qing! – Xie Lian cut him short, flushed. He really didn't want his San Lang to worry about it.

But there was no time for drama there, because the small Omega gasped, suddenly finding himself in the air, literally, as his own Alpha picked him up easily, and pushed the table nonchalantly, so that he could sit down comfortably, and place Mu Qing in his lap now.

Feng Xin's father frowned, but secretly thanked the heavens for not getting a fresh cup of tea – it would have ended on the floor by now, for sure. He rather watched them – the grinning Beta, who was nuzzling his nose into a very flushed Xie Lian's neck, and a hushed, purring Omega – his own son-in-law – who now curled into his husband's lap and pressed his face into his shoulder. Feng Xin's arms got wrapped around the boy immediately, protectively, but his scent didn't change – and that, at least, some a small win!

- So sorry, we got interrupted, Pa. – he now grumbled. – I truly wanted to talk to you in private!

He now cast a devastating look at his boss, which puzzled Xie Lian immensely – he had zero idea why the Alpha might be mad at him. Truly, he had already totally forgotten that it had been him who had been hugging Mu Qing for some good 2 minutes.

- Do... do we let you talk... in private... now? – he asked hesitantly, confused, and now blinking at Feng Xin and at Feng Xin's dad in turn.

- YES!!! – Feng Xin barked.

- No. Stay. – the Omega said quietly, but it somehow got heard by everyone around the table.

- Ughh... - the bouncer groaned, but he wouldn't contradict his father, despite not too happy about the whole situation.

- Really? – curious now, Xie Lian, tilted his head to the side, while his hand was stroking over Hua Cheng's back, making him purr very happily, and very quietly in his ear. – And why?

The Omega actually got serious. His answer was short, and somehow terse:

- Because your lover is a Beta. A Beta, whom you're calling "your puppy".

Xie Lian immediately pouted, and Hua Cheng, as soon as he heard that, unglued himself from his loved one's amazing embrace, and frowned. Yet, as soon as he opened his mouth to protest, Feng Xin growled:

- Dooooooon't you dare, asshole!!! I am serious! Let's get this shitshow over with! Today is a fucking work day after all, idiots!!!

Miraculously, Hua Cheng snapped his mouth shut, and he grinned, reminded of something amusing, probably – it turned out, good alcohol was making him quite amicable. But the one most amazed, and most suspicious was Mu Qing – he frowned now too, as he suspected something very weird was going on between his Alpha and this odd Beta. Something he knew nothing about!
