Chapter 12

After dinner in the evening, I waited for Li Zhi to return to the room.

Su Jing sat down next to Jiang Yue and took out a bottle of liquor from the wine cabinet. The clear yellow liquid was poured into the crystal wine glass, which rippled slightly under the light.

He smoothed the silver-white hair scattered on his forehead, raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at him with understanding and concern: "Did Lan come to see you?"

Jiang Yue took the wine glass, rubbed it slowly in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Hmm."

"Ha, you're really quick. It seems like you're really in a hurry." Su Jing smiled playfully and squinted at him: "You've already started leaving a legacy. The one named Lan wants you to go on a mission, right?"

Jiang Yue nodded slightly.

"It's easy to guess. Xiao Li Zhi doesn't have pheromones, so he won't agree."

Su Jing sneered, his face full of sarcasm: "He is a person who is good at weighing the pros and cons. How could he be willing to let go of such a good general like you?"

Jiang Yue was silent, his eyes dimmed, hiding the tide in his eyes. He raised his head and took a sip of wine, his mouth full of spiciness and bitterness: "After all, he brought me out from there that year, and he did me a favor."

Su Jing turned his head slightly, looked at him, and said with a half-smile: "You are a very honest person. Even if he gave you a chance back then, you have already paid back for working for him for so many years. It's time to live for yourself."

Jiang Yue lowered his eyes, his expression complicated, and his lips were pursed straight: "I can understand, it's not easy for him either, it's all for the empire."

"He wants to turn himself into a rational machine without emotions for the sake of the empire, so he wants to turn you into a machine like him, a fighting machine. What about you? Are you really willing to become like that cold-blooded guy?"

When Jiang Yue heard the word "cold-blooded", he looked at him calmly and said, "You still have resentment towards him. You know what happened back then, it wasn't his intention."

Su Jing lowered his eyes, his long raven-feather eyelashes casting a shadow: "I know, but there are some things that cannot be overcome."

Jiang Yue recalled the previous conversation on the airship and was silent for a moment: "The master will give you an explanation."

Su Jing's lips twitched slightly, his eyes were dead silent, and he sneered, "What explanation? What's the use? Can it wake anyone up?"

"."

Jiang Yue was silent.

Su Jing was silent for a while, then suddenly started talking about another topic: "Is your estrus period coming soon?"

Jiang Yue raised his eyes to look at him: "Aren't you the same?"

Su Jing shrugged: "At least after I retired from the battlefield, I was able to control my combat power in the research institute. You have been fighting outside all the time, and your combat power keeps increasing. What are you going to do without the comfort of an S-level female?"

His peach blossom eyes slightly raised, and he raised his eyebrows and smirked: "How about I give the marriage with the princess to you?"

"No need." Jiang Yue refused without hesitation, and paused: "Are you going to stay at odds with your family?"

"Yes." Su Jing smiled nonchalantly: "I would rather die than let that guy get his wish."

Then the two of them fell silent at the same time.

They were all S-rank, and it was hard to find females of the same rank, and even if there were any, they might not be willing to compromise for the sake of survival.

Even though artificial pheromone inhibitors can be used during the estrus period, the inhibitors currently produced on the market can only have a short-term sustained-release effect.

In addition to being expensive, the most important thing is that it also has serious side effects on the body, which is why they deliberately concealed it from Li Zhi. Every time the inhibitor is injected, the next estrus will come faster, the attack will be more severe, and it will be easier to get out of control, which is tantamount to fighting poison with poison and drinking poison to quench thirst.

They had used inhibitors before, but the side effects and the effect of increasing combat power meant that they probably couldn't survive more than a few estrus periods. For them, now they were just quietly waiting for the day when they would lose control.

"Forget it." Su Jing shrugged, and laughed at himself nonchalantly: "I'd better continue to look for the best scenery in the detention center and make some arrangements in advance, so that I can live comfortably there after I lose control and transform into a beast."

He glanced at Jiang Yue and teased with a smile: "Why don't I arrange for you to live next to me? Then when we two become beasts, we can have a fight and see who is stronger."

Jiang Yue didn't say anything.

For him, his life was just a miserable existence. In the days before he lost control, it was good to have a ray of light illuminate his muddy life, to be able to protect Li Zhi and see her happy.

Even if there was an S-rank female who could save him from the risk of losing control, he would not be willing to accept it.

When he was about to lose control, he would quietly leave without hurting Li Zhi. Anyway, he had already left everything under his name for her.

Su Jing suddenly said, "By the way, I'm not staying here tonight. I'm going home."

Jiang Yue raised his eyes calmly and warned, "Don't quarrel."

Su Jing snorted, drank the wine in the glass, waved his hand, turned around and left lazily.
-
Su Jing staggered back to a luxurious manor located in the capital's top aristocratic district, the cage called home.

Home is a haven for some people, but for him, it is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones.

Walking into the gate of the villa, a male figure with a cane stood on the stairs opposite, shouting in a low voice: "Stop, rebellious son!"

Su Jing stopped staggeringly, stood still with his arms folded, and raised his eyes coldly.

"I heard that you've been hanging out with that commoner Jiang Yue and a female without pheromones every day recently!"

The father gritted his teeth and said, "You are a noble, and you are engaged to the princess. What will happen if this gets out? Do you want to bring shame to the whole family? I really don't understand what you are thinking!"

"What are you thinking?" Su Jing's eyes were full of sarcasm, and he smiled coldly: "My dear father, I am just waiting for the day when you will use me as a bargaining chip and really send me away."

"Asshole!" Father slammed his cane on the ground. "Isn't the noble princess good enough? She is one of the few S-rank females who can keep you from losing control and turning into a beast! Do you know how many people are eager to get the princess's help?"

Su Jing shrugged, not caring: "No need, I can take inhibitors."

"Inhibitor? How long can it help you?" Father Su was so angry that his voice trembled: "You clearly have a chance to survive, why don't you take it! Do you really want to turn into a beast? "

You have to know that based on the physiological structure of females and males, as well as the current social situation, many males reach marriageable age and match with females of suitable levels to become partners directly. It doesn't matter whether there is affection or not, it's just for survival.

There are only advantages and no disadvantages in marrying the princess. When it comes to life, there is no reason to refuse!

Su Jing's smile was filled with a sense of revenge and ruthlessness: "I would rather become a beast than become a gift for you to curry favor with the royal family. Isn't giving away my sister enough? You also want to give me one?"

"How long are you going to make trouble?" Father Su swung his cane fiercely and panted: "What I did back then was for the family!"

"I know. But if it weren't for you, my sister wouldn't be like this now!"

Su Jing turned away with a cold and stubborn look on his back: "I will never, ever forgive you!"
