Chapter 114: Second World: Offer The Omega A Place To Stay
Qie Ranzhe saw this and couldn't stop his lips curling up in a smile repressing a chuckle but Zhao Huangzhi sitting beside him thought he was pleased with what she had been saying a couple of minutes ago which made her so happy that she interlocked her arm with his.
Qie Ranzhe was about to reprimand her to watch herself when the royal couple finally made their appearance. The emperor gave her daughter a deadly stare when he saw her arm around the Marshal's. Like a puppy afraid of its master she retracted her hand with her tail folded in between her legs.
Dinner was soon served as the two families harmoniously shared a meal together. While eating Qie Sunxie stretched her hand reaching out for some spicy crayfish but Papa Qie instantly reprimanded her. "Su Su no, you are allergic to that," he said about to stand up and stop her from eating it but Qie Sunxie shook her head saying,
"It's not for me. It's Xie Xie's favourite," while placing it into Zhao Xieshu's bowl with a radiant smile. Lucky for them most people were engrossed in their own conversations but Qie Ranzhe paused his chopsticks mid-air stupefied by his sister's behaviour. He vowed to have a proper discussion with her later.
Wen Qinxi warmly smiled saying, "Thank you." He had been placing food in the kid's bowl but he didn't think she would mimic his behaviour and do the same for him. 'What a cute well-behaved child,' he said to the system but the system humphed saying, 'I am definitely cuter.'
"Ahem.....Ran-er will be hosting a Valim armory convention in the sixth planet soon. Will the two princes be going?" said Mama Qie stirring up a subject on weapons to judge Zhao Xieshu's reaction. She was subtle in her behavior but Qie Ranzhe noticed her odd behaviour questioning it within. 'Why is she looking at Zhao Xieshu?' he thought but he was soon distracted when Prince Lazhie and Prince Tiazhi roped into a conversation about the new mecha design for the fleet which Wen Qinxi just wanted to tsk at their inferior specs. Seeing no reaction from Zhao Xieshu, Mama Qie took it a step futher asking, "How about pistols? Anything interesting?"
Everyone paused their actions awkwardly staring at Mama Qie who had suddenly taken interest in weapons. Even Wen Qinxi side-eyed Mama Qie wandering if she suspected something. It was at this crucial moment he recalled something important. 'Fuck! I gave the retired Marshal my pistol but didn't take it back,' he thought nervously rubbing his index finger with his thumb in full view of Mama Qie. The older omega looked away with a satisfied smile.
'This omega just got a whole lot interesting,' she thought as she resumed to eat nonchalantly as though this had nothing to do with her.
Wen Qinxi felt like he was sitting on pins and needles as he desperately wanted to make a phone call. He excused himself and took random turns till he reached the entertainment room. Securing the door behind him, he immediately called Xiao Hua with beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead. That pistol had to self detonate otherwise that father and pair son would figure out his secret.
Xiao Hua accepted the video call with his pink hair looking so scruffy you would think it was a bird's nest. "Why are you calling me during my nap time?" he said while scratching his head yawning.
"Can you deactivate one of the pistols? l just sent you the serial number?" he said skipping all pleasantries in a panic.
"Mn," replied Xiao Hua fiddling with his communicator before saying, "done." This plan would have worked but the person currently in possession of that weapon was a clever Weasel who had already counteracted a forced self-detonation but the two omegas didn't know that.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Wen Qinxi conversed with him a little longer before disconnecting the video call. A bored Wen Qinxi decided it was in his best interest to play with the game like mecha simulator in the entertainment room as he didn't feel like going back to that suffocating dinner table. His hands were itching to give it a go so without any hesitation he jumped in and logged in to the preexisting profile playing to his heart's content.
He was too engaged in simulated combat that he didn't hear the group of youngsters joyously strolling into the entertainment room. The adults had some business to discover so they dismissed all the youngsters who decided to hang out in the entertainment room. Who would have thought they would walk in to find an announcement that MightyZhie, Prince Lazhie's profile had broken his pre-existing record.
Puzzled, the two princes walked over just as Zhao Xieshu exited the simulator with a satisfied look on his face. "What the fuck? Did you use cheats or something?" said a pissed off Zhao Lazhie feeling disrespected. Not only did the omega beat his record, he also used his profile to do it. Each time he will log in that high score will be mocking him till he breaks it. Clenching his fists he moved forward in an intimidating stance while aggressively releasing some of his alpha pheromones with eyes as dark as the deepest depth of the sea.
If Wen Qinxi said he wasn't affected he did be lying but his suppressants were engineered by Meng Bianfu, the genius omega which helped him stand his ground. The most affected was Zhao Huangzhi leaning against Qie Ranzhe like a wounded animal. Qie Ranzhe settled her down while reprimanding Prince Lazhie saying, "Your Highness, that's enough!" before turning on the pheromone suction system in the room.
Though unwilling, the prince immediately calmed down as he feared Qie Ranzhe's strength. The prince was more terrified of the Marshal than his own father. "You are so fuckin lucky he was here," said Zhao Lazhie angrily pointing at Zhao Xieshu as he withdrew.
Wen Qinxi sneered saying, "Or what? You were going to beat me up?" These two brothers though not as extreme as Emperor Zhao, they ceaselessly bullied their older half brother whenever the opportunity arose. In high school, they took advantage of Zhao Xieshu's feelings for Qie Ranzhe luring him to the gym and locked him up all night in the alpha locker room. That extreme alpha scent emanating from the sweaty lockers almost drove Zhao Xieshu insane but thankfully he survived the night and had his suppressant re-designed after that horrible experience.
"You think l am like that inebriated Youhuo Zhe that you could easily subdue? You must be fuckin joking!" he said getting worked up all over again.
Wen Qinxi scoffed, it was about time he taught these two brats a lesson and wound their pompous alpha pride. "How about this, give me Tiazhi's simulator profile. Whoever has the highest score wins. If l win the both of from now on will call me Dage," he said lazily folding his arms across his chest.
Prince Lazhie easily agreed with a confidant smile saying, "Sure, If you lose then find somewhere else to stay and leave the palace."
Qie Ranzhe couldn't stand it anymore pacing over to stop them but Zhao Huangzhi shamelessly clung to his arm beckoning him to stay with a pitiable expression. The Marshal gazed at the confident omega his heart full of worries. He had already wronged Zhao Xieshu plenty of times and wanted to make up for it. If Zhao Xieshu lost today, he would offer him a place to stay, that way he could repay him for years of torment.
