Chapter 9 Ocean Perfume Has Been Following Him All Along.

Leather shoes stepped on the soft carpet of the mansion’s corridor, the sound barely audible.

Jiang Quanyu moved his feet, and after a few steps, he walked to Wen Shixi.

As the person opposite approached, Wen Shixi, unexpectedly, lightly curved his fingers.

For a moment, he seemed to smell the ocean perfume on Jiang Quanyu.

After stopping, Jiang Quanyu raised his hand and reached towards Wen Shixi’s neck.

Wen Shixi subconsciously dodged, taking half a step back, and quickly heard the person in front of him’s low, dangerous voice.

“Don’t move.”

Wen Shixi’s back foot stopped in place, and the next second, Jiang Quanyu’s hand touched his collar.

A soft rubbing sound was heard as the pointed collar of his shirt was gently turned up, those hands agile yet domineering, removing the small bow tie Wen Shixi was originally wearing.

Then, Jiang Quanyu reached into his pocket and took out a black leather pheromone suppression collar with a bow.

Wen Shixi’s estrus symptoms had not completely disappeared, but had only been relieved after the pheromone extract was administered.

“Don’t be too reckless.” Jiang Quanyu said as he put the suppression collar on Wen Shixi’s neck, “Otherwise, you’ll really get scolded.”

Jiang Quanyu’s figure blocked the light from the top of the corridor, creating a small patch of shadow, encircling the omega in front of him in the dark.

The movements were skilled, just like years ago, when he personally tied that black tie for Wen Shixi at his coming-of-age ceremony.

Only that night, that tie was used for a different purpose, tied around the wrist of the newly adult youth, constantly digging into the skin accompanied by sobs.

Wen Shixi paused slightly, his expression unnaturally tense.

Jiang Quanyu: “Still responsible for a few intermezzos?”

Wen Shixi: “…Four times.”

Jiang Quanyu paused for a moment, his unspoken words self-evident.

“I already promised the teacher.” Wen Shixi said immediately.

Jiang Quanyu remained noncommittal: “So?”

Wen Shixi frowned for a moment, his lips pressed tightly together.

Judging from Jiang Quanyu’s meaning, it seemed that he was really dissatisfied with his appearance here today.

He knew that Jiang Quanyu never cared what others thought, acting extremely wantonly.

He was afraid that the next sentence would be arranging a car to send him home.

Jiang Quanyu put the pheromone suppression collar on Wen Shixi and smoothed down his collar again.

His gaze drooped slightly, his eyes filled with contentment, as if he had just put a bow collar on his favorite cat.

The overflowing cool scent was controlled by the inhibitor, gradually disappearing from around them.

The inhibitor in the collar was very similar to Wen Shixi’s pheromone, both smelling cool.

“I like that Grand Piano, I want to try it again.” Wen Shixi said abruptly, his expression dimmed a little, turning to the side: “…You also said, I just played a wrong note, I can’t end like this.”

Jiang Quanyu lowered his hand and looked at Wen Shixi’s slightly averted face.

A pair of beautiful almond eyes contained full of unhappiness, filled with stubbornness and naivety in the sparkling light.

Of course, Wen Shixi couldn’t possibly not know the question Jiang Quanyu had just raised.

It was just that those consecutive notes were too fast, and his fingertips became dull due to the pain, which affected his performance.

How could Wen Shixi be casual about his attitude towards the piano?

In the silence, Jiang Quanyu’s gaze drooped slightly.

A few seconds later, Jiang Quanyu: “Change to a simpler piece.”

Wen Shixi heard this, his breath paused slightly, and he blinked his eyes.

Jiang Quanyu left a sentence and quickly withdrew his gaze.

He turned sideways and passed Wen Shixi, leaving towards the end of the corridor, heading back to the banquet hall.

Wen Shixi was slightly stunned, then turned around and looked in the direction Jiang Quanyu left.

The music of the symphony orchestra faintly came, and the timpani played the last heavy note.

The past that remained in his memory made Wen Shixi a little confused.

He was sent to the old house at the age of seven, and Jiang Quanyu was already fifteen years old at that time.

From childhood to adulthood, in his impression, Jiang Quanyu either didn’t speak, or he was a man of his word.

But Jiang Quanyu just now… was he following him all along?

–

Returning to the banquet hall, the symphony orchestra took a short break and was being soloed by the concertmaster.

Wen Shixi stood on the edge of the performance area, looking at the vast crowd in the entire banquet hall.

Almost all the heads of the port trading companies in Linggang City were gathered together.

In a corner of the banquet hall, Liang Min walked to the quiet Wen Shixi and said gently, “The teacher likes that Rach a lot.”

In the past, when he was at school, Wen Shixi’s performance was always too delicate and lacked tension, so it was not suitable for the style of Russian artists.

But just now, Wen Shixi played it very well.

The march was full and powerful, and when it fell to the ground, it seemed to burst out with dazzling golden sparks.

Wen Shixi: “Thank you, teacher.”

Liang Min: “I heard them say that your brother seems to be here.”

As Wen Shixi’s instructor, Liang Min naturally knew about his family situation.

Following Liang Min’s words, Wen Shixi moved his gaze and happened to see the figure in the crowd.

Jiang Quanyu was surrounded by people, with two noble and imposing young omegas standing on his left and right.

Liang Min followed Wen Shixi’s line of sight, looked at that figure, and commented with a smile: “Well, a face full of cold air, very powerful.”

Wen Shixi’s eyes were indifferent, and he responded perfunctorily: “Yes.”

“Many people present don’t know who he is and have been discussing it.” Liang Min asked, “Will his identity be announced later?”

Wen Shixi: “I’m not very clear about the family’s arrangements in this regard.”

Liang Min: “I’m sorry, Shixi, I didn’t expect this to happen.”

Both being the younger generation of the Jiang family, they were clearly brothers. Today, Jiang Quanyu was a distinguished guest, but Wen Shixi was here as a performer for people to admire because he was helping her.

Looking from afar, Jiang Quanyu seemed to be receiving many invitations.

Each family was surrounding that figure, not to mention those cute omegas who flocked to him.

“Teacher, there’s no need to apologize.” Wen Shixi said, “I haven’t seen my brother for many years, and I didn’t know he would come today.”

In the past, the Jiang family would not attend such occasions, but would only let the senior executives of the subsidiary come to show their faces.

Liang Min turned her head and looked at Wen Shixi’s face: “Are you two not on good terms?”

Wen Shixi’s eyes flickered.

“Well… just so-so.”
