CHAPTER 5: HIS WIFE TOOK AWAY MY HUSBAND

Yu Jingxuan had fallen asleep, and his lively Alpha friend… although not completely sober, had the awareness that he was too intoxicated to drive.

In a daze, he retrieved his phone and navigated through his contacts.

“Yuyu, do not fall asleep just yet. We need someone to pick us up… Um, I will give Orange a call.”

Meanwhile, what Nie Zihang witnessed and heard just now left him stunned, making it difficult for him to regain his composure.

So… it appeared that Yu Jingxuan, an Alpha, was involved in an Alpha-Alpha relationship. It seemed that his partner had cheated on him with an Omega.

And also, was he the one who took the submissive role in their relationship?

Nie Zihang discreetly cast another glance at the sleeping man.

Half of the Alpha’s face was buried in his arm, with his nostrils probably blocked, emitting a “puffing” sound with each breath.

He had fair skin, and the areas where he pressed against were easily visible, revealing faint red marks.

The man lay motionless, his hand facing downwards, exposing a noticeable layer of calluses on his palms.

Beneath the table, amidst the crumpled clothes, the presence of well-defined muscles was evident, indicating a consistent and rigorous exercise routine.

It was difficult to fathom that someone of his stature would be in a submissive position…

While still in a state of disbelief, the spirited Alpha sitting across from him had already dialled a number, his speech slurred as he spoke into the phone, “Orange, Big Orange, Yuyu, and I have had too much to drink. Come pick us up!”

The speakerphone was activated, and an irritated voice resonated from across the table: “What Big Orange? You have dialled the wrong number! Calling at this hour and expecting me to come to your rescue? Forget it, I am not picking you up. You are out of your mind!”

Subsequently, the sound of a busy tone emanated from the phone.

Inebriated, the Alpha shouted into the microphone, “How dare you speak like that!”

Nie Zihang: …

He now even doubted whether these two Alphas could find their way home.

He hoped they would not end up sleeping on the roadside together. The tipsy Alpha might look like a regular person, so it would not have much impact, but Yu Jingxuan was a police officer in this area. If he got recognised… it could jeopardise his job security.

“Let us go, Dahang. Why are you lingering? Do you not have to watch over your disciple in court tomorrow? Are you planning to stay up all night? Even with a strong body, you cannot withstand it. You are an Omega, so go back and get some sleep.”

Jiang Ming had already walked to the door but noticed that Nie Zihang had not come out yet. Unable to resist, he turned back to call out to him.

Nie Zihang looked at the completely collapsed Officer Yu and the other Alpha, who were struggling to navigate the phone’s contacts and cursing at it in frustration.

He pressed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

Forget it; at least they were acquaintances, and it was rare to encounter someone going through a similar situation. It would not hurt to just help them get home; no big deal.

He resignedly walked over to the table where the two of them were sitting and tapped the car keys in front of the tipsy Alpha. “Do not make any more calls to find someone. It is late at night. Wherever you are going, I will give you a ride.”

The other person immediately held onto their phone tightly and looked at him warily. “Who are you?”

Nie Zihang replied, “I am a friend of Officer Yu.”

The tipsy Alpha wrinkled his nose and scrunched up his face:

“O… Omega? You are making things up! You definitely are not Yuyu’s friend. Yuyu has never had an Omega friend. We, Alphas, are eternal class enemies with Omegas!”

Nie Zihang: …

Jiang Ming, who had just arrived: …

The three of them exchanged awkward glances.

As they continued to look at each other, the expression on the tipsy Alpha’s face suddenly became panicked and flustered.

The young man pushed Officer Yu, who was sitting across from him, while pulling out a skewer stick from a lamb skewer. Pointing at Nie Zihang, he shouted:

“I figured it out! You, you are that despicable Omega! You stole Yuyu’s Alpha, and now you are here to provoke us! And you even brought backup!”

“Do not think that just because you are bigger and stronger, we are afraid of you! Yuyu graduated from a reputable police academy and has good skills. Do not get too arrogant!”

“Yuyu, wake up quickly! The enemy spies have come to assassinate us!”

Officer Yu, who was originally fast asleep, suddenly woke up upon hearing the word “spies.” He opened his eyes alertly.

The agile Alpha quickly got up and instinctively grabbed Jiang Ming, who was closest to him. He bumped his knee against Jiang Ming’s knee and swiftly brought him down to the ground.

“Do not move! I am Officer 39520 from the H District Police. According to the ‘ABO Constitution,’ I am arresting you for committing a crime. Now, come with me immediately.”

With clear eyes, a determined gaze, and professional movements, Officer Yu displayed a sense of confidence and competence.

Um… if Officer Yu did not just take out a “police identification card” from thin air and was currently holding it up for Jiang Ming to see…

Jiang Ming: …

“Oh my god, let go! What the heck are you doing? Where is the actual evidence? Nie Zihang, for god’s sake, do something and get him off me! I just had a full meal; do not make me throw up!”

Beside them, the tipsy Alpha continued to cheer them on enthusiastically. “Well done!”

Nie Zihang looked at his dishevelled friend and then glanced at Officer Yu, whose gaze was starting to blur…

Unable to hold back, Nie Zihang pressed his fist against his lips and chuckled, unable to contain his amusement.

The laughter successfully caught Officer Yu’s attention, and he looked up at Nie Zihang.

There was a hint of sleepiness in the corners of the Alpha’s eyes, with a slight blush on his nose. As he looked at Nie Zihang, there was a trace of confusion in his gaze.

After a while, Officer Yu finally caught up and asked slowly, “Nie, the lawyer?”

Nie Zihang kneeled down in front of Officer Yu and extended his hand towards him. “Hello, Officer Yu. The person pinned down below is my friend.”

Yu Jingxuan responded with an “Oh” and quickly released his grip, apologising, “Sorry… Mr. Nie, are you and your friend here to have a meal?”

Nie Zihang looked surprised and said, “Is this… after a few struggles, you are sober now? Well, that was quick.”

As the tipsy Alpha realised that the two of them actually knew each other, he excitedly squatted down next to them and asked, “Yuyu, is this your friend? When did you become friends with an Omega?”

Yu Jingxuan blinked slowly, taking his time to think before earnestly responding, “Not friends.”

Nie Zihang furrowed his brow in response.

Yu Jingxuan said, “His wife took away my Alpha.”

The spirited Alpha: !!!

Jiang Ming: ???

Seeing their puzzled expressions, Yu Jingxuan realised that he might not have explained clearly enough. He repeated earnestly, “My husband, he took away his wife.”

Nie Zihang: …

Alright then.

He was mistaken earlier. Officer Yu Jingxuan was actually still intoxicated and not fully awake.

Yu Jingxuan looked at Nie Zihang uncertainly when he did not agree. “Is it not true? My Alpha took away your Omega.”

Nie Zihang sighed in resignation: “Yes, yes, you are right. Let us go, Officer Yu. I will take you both home.”

With that, Nie Zihang helped Officer Yu to his feet.

However, the Alpha, who had been agile just moments ago, seemed to have a momentary lapse in coordination. His knees buckled, and he ended up burying his head into Nie Zihang’s chest.

Nie Zihang instinctively caught him, supporting his weight as he held him steady.

The scent of an Alpha filled the air, enveloping them both.

He had smelled this fragrance before—clean, slightly sweet, like the pure scent of orchids.

But this time, the scent was even stronger than any previous encounter.

However, just as he took in a breath of the scent, his arms suddenly felt empty.

He looked up and saw Alpha holding onto Yu Jingxuan’s collar, berating him in pain. “Yuyu! How could you run into an Omega’s arms like that! It is a blow to your Alpha’s dignity!”

Nie Zihang could feel a throbbing sensation in his temples once again…

The author has something to say:

The current Nie Zihang: “Alpha, go away!”

The future Nie Zihang: “Wife, you smell so good. Give me a kiss, wife…”

Yu Jingxuan: “…Um, okay…”
