Want a Candy?

Gui Yue stretched out a hand to cover his heart; it seemed to be beating a little fast. He must have exerted himself too much just now, Gui Yue guessed.
"Get up, I'll take you home." Gui Yue's voice was still very low. Although the target was an Omega he disliked, he still had the principles of an Alpha.
Seeing Jiang You still huddled in the corner, unmoving, Gui Yue frowned, his dark eyes showing a hint of worry. He looked left and right, clicked his tongue, and took off his jacket, throwing it to Jiang You.
"So troublesome. Put it on. I'll take you home."
Then Gui Yue picked up Jiang You's bag, dusted it off, and slung it over his shoulder.
No matter how much he disliked this Omega, he couldn't just leave him alone in the dead of night.
"My... my legs are weak... I can't stand up. Can you help me a little?" Jiang You said softly, lowering his eyes.
Jiang You's fair face was flushed pink, he bit his lip slightly, his gaze evasive as if embarrassed. The Alpha's oversized uniform jacket draped over him made his waist appear soft and slender, as if it could break with a snap.
Gui Yue thought for a moment, then stepped forward, reaching out to grab Jiang You's arm and pull him up. Through the clothes, Gui Yue subconsciously frowned; the arm was too thin.
Only now did Gui Yue realize that his sworn rival was so thin, just like a kitten.
After Jiang You stood up, Gui Yue released his hand, letting Jiang You follow behind him.
As they passed by those Alphas, Gui Yue noticed the Omega's body behind him flinch slightly, seemingly frightened by them.
Gui Yue suddenly felt an inexplicable anger. His sworn rival was so easily bullied by some nobodies, unable to fight back.
"Jiang You, are you afraid of them?" Gui Yue tilted his head, pointed at the person lying on the ground, and said with a smile, "That's not like you at all. Aren't you usually very arrogant?"
Jiang You was startled by this, a vague suspicion forming in his mind; it seemed the person in front of him wanted to fight him.
Next, Jiang You heard Gui Yue say, "These pieces of trash are lying sprawled on the ground right now. Don't you feel anything?"
He might as well have said outright that Jiang You should take advantage of the situation. Jiang You understood, secretly raised an eyebrow, but his face showed a hint of hesitation as he lowered his eyes and stepped forward.
Gui Yue watched Jiang You walk over and kick an Alpha. Although it looked like it didn't have much force, it was barely acceptable. Gui Yue was not very satisfied.
But in a hidden corner that Gui Yue couldn't see, Jiang You's lips curved into a sneer. His amber pupils were filled with coldness and cruelty as he mockingly looked at the Alpha under his foot.
The places he kicked were all where Gui Yue had already injured them. The force wasn't strong, but it was enough to make them suffer.
He curved his eyes at them, mouthing, "Wait until tomorrow, I'll torture you guys to death."
The Alphas on the ground: ...So scary, sob sob.
"Let's go." Gui Yue kicked each person he passed, and amidst their groans, he added, "Lie here and wait for the police to arrive and explain yourselves. If you dare to run, I'm sure you know the consequences, right?"
After speaking, he subtly glanced at Jiang You, and the two left the dead-end alley.
Gui Yue didn't ask Jiang You why he was out tonight, and Jiang You didn't ask how the matter would be resolved afterward.
"Shall I call a car to take you home?"
Gui Yue led Jiang You to the alley entrance and hailed a taxi on the street. Jiang You gave the address, which was a villa area. Gui Yue looked at Jiang You with wide eyes.
The villa area was a wealthy neighborhood in A City. As expected, he was a pampered young master. But why was this young master running out at night to experience and observe the common folk?
The air conditioner was on in the car, so it wasn't as cold as outside. Gui Yue sat beside him. As the car door closed, it felt like they were cut off from the outside world.
Gui Yue glanced at Jiang You, who was looking down, deep in thought. After a long silence, he took a lollipop out of his pocket.
"Want a candy?"
A strawberry lollipop appeared in Jiang You's sight, the pink candy held by slender fingers and waved in front of him, looking incredibly tempting.
He sat in the car and took the candy. After a long moment, Jiang You pursed his lips and opened his mouth to say, "Thank you."
So easy to coax? Gui Yue looked at Jiang You with rare curiosity, then at the candy. One candy had earned him a thank you from his sworn rival.
Noticing the hidden meaning in Gui Yue's eyes, Jiang You frowned and said, "It's not because of the candy, it's because today I..."
Jiang You didn't finish the next sentence. Gui Yue chuckled: "Alright, I don't usually see you talk so much."
Jiang You choked, angrily lowered his head, and focused on unwrapping the candy, putting it in his mouth.
Gui Yue looked at his unwrapping speed and knew he often ate candy.
When Jiang You ate candy, he looked very relaxed, his left cheek puffed out, his expression content, his amber pupils sparkling.
Gui Yue watched for a while and felt a little craving himself. He felt his pocket; there were no more lollipops inside, that was the last one.
Gui Yue had to take a piece of chewing gum and put it in his mouth. The cool mint flavor spread, and Gui Yue happily leaned back in his seat.
"Don't go out at night anymore." Gui Yue said casually.
Jiang You rarely argued, obediently nodding.
This made Gui Yue even more certain that Jiang You had been frightened today.
Like a kitten that had just run out of its nest, trembling as it extended its claws, then got scared and felt wronged.
Gui Yue was amused by his own imagination.
Jiang You? He had nothing to do with a frightened kitten!
Soon, the car arrived. Jiang You grabbed his bag and got out.
As he got out, Jiang Qi waved his hand, and the car window lowered. Gui Yue looked at him.
The Omega's indifferent face curved, his reddish eye corners making him appear incredibly gentle. With the candy still in his mouth, the cold aura that usually kept people a thousand miles away was completely gone, even giving off a hint of coquettishness.
"Thank you, the candy was delicious, and also, thank you for saving me."
It wasn't until Jiang You entered the community gate and was out of sight that Gui Yue reacted.
"Let's go."
In the car, the scenery along the road quickly receded, and the yellow streetlights stretched out. Gui Yue heard his phone ringing incessantly.
It was his old man.
Old Man: [You went to be a hero saving a beauty, leaving your dad to clean up your mess. Typical you, you have my style from back then.]
jy: []
Old Man: [Where are you? Dad's waiting for you at the shop at the alley entrance.]
Old Man: [No need to rush, take your time.]
jy: [, have you smoked and are about to blame the shop staff?]
Old Man: [This kid, stop talking nonsense.]
jy: [, Okay, as long as you smell like smoke, go explain to your wife yourself.]
jy: [Chat history of jy and the beauty]
Old Man: [!!! You unlucky son!!]
After teasing his old man for a while, Gui Yue put away his phone and looked out the window. Jiang You's smile reappeared in his mind.
This was the second time he had seen Jiang You smile.
As for the first time, Gui Yue's eyes darkened, and he tightly closed them.

"Click--"
The lights illuminated the entire room. "Jiang You" casually threw his bag on the ground, took off his uniform jacket and hung it on the rack, then took out a black pajama set from the closet.
Looking at the mirror on the wall, "Jiang You" lowered his head, his fair neck curving into a graceful line. His slender fingers fumbled with the white inhibitor patch behind his neck.
Finished, he stretched, looked at the person in the mirror, and sneered: "Jiang You, this time you have to kneel and thank me. I don't usually act."
The beautiful face in the mirror seemed to freeze. It was clearly the same face, yet it gave a completely different feeling.
Jiang You said indifferently: "You only do it for yourself, Jiang Qi."
The person called Jiang Qi ignored whatever Jiang You said. He chuckled and continued: "I want to continue interacting with the Alpha I met by chance today."
Jiang You frowned: "What do you want to do?"
Jiang Qi didn't answer.
Jiang You lowered his eyes: "You know I can stop you."
Jiang Qi heard this and sneered: "Nothing, can't I just make friends? After all these years, do the people around you even amount to one hand? I don't want to be like that."
Jiang You's indifferent pupils looked at him, as if wanting to see through his inner thoughts.
Jiang Qi ignored Jiang You. He moved away from the mirror, stretched his neck, then threw himself heavily onto the bed.
He carefully counted what he had to do tomorrow night. Dealing with that group of Alphas was the top priority.
"Dare to curse, damn it, wash your necks and wait for me."
Jiang Qi thought to himself, grabbed the stuffed animal on the bed, hugged it, and fell asleep.
In his dream, there were no noisy arguments, only silence and roses.
