Restrain Yourself a Little

Of course, Huo​​‌​‍‌‍‍⁠⁠​​‌​‌‍‌‍‌​​‌‍‍ Xianfeng couldn’t have just fallen asleep like that. There were two reasons why he quietly lay down at this moment—

The first was that the doctor said it was best not to perform the second type of pheromone comfort too frequently at this stage, and the second reason was that he was waiting. If Jiang Ci was really very uncomfortable, he would come over on his own.

“Huo Xianfeng—”

Sure enough, in less than a minute, the omega who couldn’t hold back any longer came over.

Jiang Ci couldn’t figure out if Huo Xianfeng was really doing it on purpose or if he truly had no worldly thoughts. But he did, and they were very urgent right now.

“Don’t sleep yet.”

“Mm.”

Huo Xianfeng didn’t feel that this current position was anything that would damage an alpha’s dignity. He even reached out to support the other’s arm, helping to steady his body, and then slowly asked him,

“Hm? Then what should we do?”

“…Huo Xianfeng!”

As soon as these words fell, his wife’s voice sounded a little annoyed. But he soon quietened up, as if some tense and difficult internal struggle was taking place in his mind. Huo Xianfeng was not in a hurry, and he just slowly stroked the omega’s feverish cheek,

“A-Ci, are you still feeling unwell?”

“…Mm.”

Actually, it was still a little uncomfortable, but not too uncomfortable. But Jiang Ci, with his mind in a mess, couldn’t say what he wanted to do instead of sleeping, nor could he find any other excuse. So he could only quickly take the way out that Huo Xianfeng offered. But a simple kiss still couldn’t solve any problems. At this moment, his palms strained to support himself on the pillows on both sides of the other’s head. Then he slowly propped up himself, looking into the other’s eyes. He pursed his lips, but they still trembled uncontrollably.

“Huo Xianfeng…”

At this moment, Huo Xianfeng could clearly feel that because of the omega’s plank position, his arm muscles had subconsciously tightened and were even trembling slightly from the excessive tension.

“Huo Xianfeng, I-I’m still uncomfortable.”

The omega’s voice was a bit hoarse, but it carried a tone of longing and coquettishness. It was very pleasant to listen to, yet it also seemed like countless, lightly trembling feathers brushing against his heart.

“Still uncomfortable, huh?”

Huo Xianfeng raised his eyes and his gaze casually brushed over the omega’s flushed cheeks. Those beautiful, ruby-like eyes were dazed with a layer of mist, shimmering with a radiant light along with his trembling eyelashes. And then, his face was reflected within them,

“Hmm… what should we do then?”

“Huo Xianfeng, Huo Xianfeng…”

Jiang Ci couldn’t say it, so he could only keep calling his name.

Huo Xianfeng really liked how Jiang Ci was now. He reached out and slowly massaged according to the previous technique, then pressed down on the very center bit by bit, gradually feeling a certain wonderful sensation in the process. The rich milky scent invaded all of Huo Xianfeng’s senses. His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, and then he said,

“Massage one more time?”

“Mm, mm…”

Huo Xianfeng could tell that these two short responses didn’t truly express the meaning of “this is enough.” The real meaning should have been an eager and unbearable expression of “this is not enough.”

“A-Ci, your pajamas seem a little…”

“!!!”

The next second, Huo Xianfeng noticed the person on him stiffen. He immediately ripped off the button with one hand, then quickly crumpled the evidence into a ball, stuffed it under the quilt, and after hiding it, still stubbornly denied it—

“N-no.”

Huo Xianfeng’s fingertip tapped, and he could clearly feel the muscle under his fingertip trembling with his every tap. He didn’t expose him directly with words, but asked lightly,

“Is that so?”

His gaze faintly  lingered on the omega’s face, but his peripheral vision unconsciously fell elsewhere. For a moment, Huo Xianfeng thought of a fruit called pomegranate from before Earth became a dead planet. And now, he was pressing down on a beautiful, plump, red pomegranate seed. Jiang Ci’s whole body was stiff. This familiar wicked taste, this familiar feeling of being teased until his whole body went numb, suddenly felt very familiar to Jiang Ci. He looked at the mischievous smile in the other’s eyes, and something suddenly flashed through his mind.

“Huo Xianfeng, you! Are you back to normal?”

Back to normal?

Huo Xianfeng didn’t answer and just chuckled. But his tone and eyes had already answered everything.

Jiang Ci was suddenly taken aback and immediately remembered. His breathing quickened as he roughly described He Zhun’s words to Huo Xianfeng. The key information was about that special Stigmata, and the possibility that the Pope might use Cecilia to attack Pei Changyun or Huo Xianfeng.

This action would send a signal of distrust, and at the same time, it would put Jiang Ci in a difficult position between the two sides.

Jiang Ci was stunned, and for a moment, a look of heartache so intense he wanted to cry appeared on his face.

At this moment, Huo Xianfeng gently wrapped one arm around Jiang Ci’s back and then suddenly sat up. Immediately after, Jiang Ci only felt a warmth on his chest, and a wet, hot licking sensation instantly invade all his sensory nerves. He couldn’t utter a single word and unexpectedly let out a surprised gasp, but in the end, he could only tightly hug Huo Xianfeng’s head.

Actually, it wasn’t as if they hadn’t had this kind of contact before, but before and now were different.

Jiang Ci didn’t know how to answer. Because the feeling of swelling had almost completely disappeared, only to be replaced by a sharp,  focused throbbing. While he was still trying to form his words, Huo Xianfeng suddenly tilted his head up to kiss him.

Everyone knew what that “sweet” referred to.

“Huo Xianfeng—!”

“Mm, present.”

Huo Xianfeng heard the omega’s angry but still trembling voice, and then the next second, his wife shyly buried himself in his arms. His voice was very low, with a barely perceptible sob,

“Don’t say it, don’t ask me these kinds of questions…”

Huo Xianfeng discovered that sometimes, compared to physical contact, a few short sentences, a few slightly explicit words, were more than Jiang Ci could bear, even provoking a different kind of reaction. After all, the young omega master from a wealthy family had an exceptionally high sense of shame. He couldn’t stand hearing those words; as soon as he heard them, his whole body would go numb. But Huo Xianfeng just had to say them.

“If you’re still uncomfortable after the massage, just getting it out will be fine.”

This wasn’t said by He Zhun; it was said by the omega teacher in the previous video tutorial. Although it sounded like a very proper thing to say, Jiang Ci felt it was even more shameful than before. Huo Xianfeng slowly stroked Jiang Ci’s back, like he was soothing a stressed cat, slow and gentle, over and over again.

“So you shouldn’t be uncomfortable now, right? Feeling better?”

He asked while slowly stroking,

“What else do you want?”

“I…”

Huo Xianfeng was not in a hurry, waiting with great patience. Until after a long while, as expected, he heard the omega’s muffled, hoarse voice from the crook of his neck—

“Want… want comfort…”

As he spoke, he even rubbed the side of his soft cheek against Huo Xianfeng’s neck, and like a coquettish little cat, licked his neck, which was a kind of flirting and hint. Of course, Huo Xianfeng received the hint. His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, and all the cells in his body became slightly excited at this moment, but he still had to ask,

“Which kind?”

Jiang Ci knew he was doing it on purpose and was very sure that the previous Huo Xianfeng had definitely returned. But he couldn’t do anything about it now. He was anxious and wanted it, so he could only bite down on the other’s Adam’s apple in anger.

“Why can’t you just kiss me and coax me?!”

Jiang Ci had originally wanted to talk about comfort and that kind of thing, but he couldn’t say it, so he had to change his wording. His sensitive emotions suddenly collapsed, and he couldn’t help but start crying. While crying, he also cursed,

“Damn it, Huo Xianfeng, are you incapable?!”

Actually, Huo Xianfeng almost wanted to laugh at being cursed, but he also felt a little sorry for him. But at the beginning, he really was just simply fulfilling his caregiving duties, just to alleviate Jiang Ci’s discomfort. So in the end, he sighed deeply, reached out and patted his crying, coquettish, and spoiled wife, and coaxed him in a low voice,

“Good boy, the doctor said you need to exercise some restraint during pregnancy.”

After a pause, Huo Xianfeng added,

“Besides, didn’t we just have deep pheromone comfort last night?”

Jiang Ci: “…”

That’s what was said, that’s the logic, and today’s massage was also to alleviate his discomfort. But he just couldn’t get over it right now.

The more Jiang Ci thought about it, the sadder he became. He couldn’t control his emotions at all and suddenly couldn’t stop crying. And his crying wasn’t the kind of loud wailing, but like a wronged little puppy, whimpering and sobbing, and he even had to call out with difficulty in a small voice,

“Xiao Huo-gege… Xiao Huo-gege…”

These two calls were enough to melt anyone’s heart.

“Mm.”

Huo Xianfeng’s hand slid down his spine. This seemed to be some kind of signal, and just then, Jiang Ci noticed his movement and immediately responded, even coming to kiss him.

“Restraint… we can be exercise restraint…”

He couldn’t get the last word out, only letting out a short breath. But for the thin-skinned Major General Jiang Ci, this was already a huge step forward. So Huo Xianfeng’s answer was a gentle kiss in return, and then he asked in a low voice,

“Do you still remember the remaining few teaching positions from last night’s video?”

“Re… remember.”

“Good, then we’ll use that one.”

After this sentence, the two mechas in the room simultaneously entered sleep mode, blocking out all external sounds until dawn. Only Bright Moon remained on, because its original master was Bai Min, who was also an omega. Therefore, its data on omegas was very complete, including content related to deep comfort during pregnancy. It scanned silently, recording the angle, force, and posture, then input them into a test program to run a full calculation. The final result was confirmed to be safe.

After getting this result, the white earring on the table flashed, went out, and entered sleep mode.
