Series: I Was Marked by the Enigma of the Aristocratic Family

Ruan Shuyang nervously walked through the unfamiliar upscale club with his fiancé Pei Siyue.      He had been arranged by his family to engage to Pei Siyue shortly after turning 18. He had no expectations for the alpha his family had chosen for him, but Pei Siyue turned out to be unexpectedly kind.   　　He…

　After Pei Siyue helped Ruan Shuyang to his feet, faint sounds began to emanate from the emergency exit. “Hurry, go check if that omega is on the fifth floor.” 　　“But Sun Mi, the fifth floor is the territory of the club owner’s eldest son, Chi Jia. He’s never welcomed others there…” “Just go. If anything…

Marking ends. Pei Siyue slowly lowers Ruan Shuyang. 　　The omega he was holding seemed unusually small, with his head only reaching his chest, needing his support to lean on his shoulder. Ruan Shuyang had already fainted, the weak omega’s forehead covered in sweat, his head limp in his hand. He helped him lie down on…

　　Around 10 a.m., the tall and handsome alpha Chi Heng walked into Pei Siyue’s office at Rui Ji Technology, casually leaned back on the leather sofa, sent the surveillance footage to the other party, and asked, “What’s going on? I heard that Ruan Shuyang is supposedly your future sister-in-law. Why are you concerned about his…

　　Pei Siming left, and Ruan Shuyang was able to move from the attic—which was hot in summer, cold in winter, and drafty—to a bedroom on the second floor thanks to his words. 　　While moving his belongings, he overheard Ruan Jianchuan personally ordering Pan Lan not to cause trouble during this period. Pan Lan dared not…

Ruan Shuyang was eagerly anticipating his upcoming university life. He had researched a lot about T University and browsed the campus forum, so he was familiar with the campus celebrities. 　　Chi Ye was one of them, the acknowledged campus heartthrob of T University, with his good looks, great physique, and prestigious family background. Under the…

Ruan Shuyang was in a bad state. Perhaps it was because he had been sitting next to two alphas earlier, but after leaving the treatment center, his waist ached and his legs felt weak. He could barely walk a few steps without nearly collapsing. 　　He leaned against a streetlight, closed his eyes, and felt the…

He squirmed uncomfortably for a moment, and Pei Siyue loosened his grip. But after letting go, a new red mark appeared on his ankle, standing out clearly against his skin, which was as white as cream. 　　“Sorry,” Pei Siyue murmured, then reached into the glove compartment beside him, took out a tube of ointment, twisted…

Ruan Shuyang froze, his mind going blank. He didn’t know what to do. What was going on? His fiancé’s older brother had previously given him a temporary mark, and now, due to his physical condition, he was dependent on Pei Siyue’s pheromones. …Could he just faint? He desperately wanted to escape this situation. Yet no…

Though spoken in a commanding tone, this time it lacked the oppressive pheromones that had rendered resistance impossible moments before. Clearly, it wasn’t a dominance play. Yet Ruan Shuyang’s mind felt like it had short-circuited. He dumbly asked, “How do I accept it?” 　　Pei Siyue’s aura was so powerful it made people unconsciously follow, obey,…

But Jiang Wu couldn’t think of any other reason. Since the boss had laid out the plan, he followed through, coordinating with R&D in advance to inform them the boss would personally participate in the development. After discussing R&D progress, they moved on to the guest list for the next day’s banquet. To celebrate the…

　　Though Ruan Shuyang didn’t understand why Pei Siyue had added this stipulation, he complied nonetheless. “Understood, Mr. Pei.” He wouldn’t accept another’s pheromones or mark anyway. As for the suppressant, if he were marked, it likely wouldn’t be necessary. If truly needed, he’d use it first and report afterward. 　　It was just odd that even…

Around six the next morning, dazzling sunlight streamed through the curtain slits, forming a beam that landed on Ruan Shuyang’s eyelids. His curled lashes were bathed in golden light. Ruan Shuyang opened his eyes groggily, surprised to find he’d slept straight through until dawn after collapsing from exhaustion. 　　He climbed out of bed and tiptoed…

　　Bad, so bad! After hanging up, Ruan Shuyang puffed out his cheeks and muttered a silent complaint. He thought Pei Siyue was truly awful. Even after learning Pei Siyue was the one who saved him that day, he didn’t believe the ruthless, cold-blooded description from Pei Siming. He saw Pei Siyue as a good person.…

Jiang Wu exhaled in relief and immediately replied, “Understood, Young Master.” Only after stepping outside did Jiang Wu realize his back was drenched in cold sweat. He knew Pei Siyue was an enigma, but the man usually controlled his pheromones exceptionally well, rarely revealing the traits typical of an enigma. Only after stepping outside did…

After lowering his pants to his hips, Pei Siyue tapped Ruan Shuyang’s ribs with his finger. “Pull your top up to here.” Blushing, Ruan Shuyang pulled his shirt up to his ribs, revealing a sliver of pale, delicate waistline. Ruan Shuyang was very slim, his waist barely more than a thin layer of skin. When…

After a while, Ruan Shuyang felt much better. Not wanting to trouble Pei Siyue any longer, he said, “I feel much better now.” Pei Siyue withdrew his hand, observing the renewed flush and luster in Ruan Shuyang’s cheeks. “Get ready for dinner,” he instructed. Ruan Shuyang blinked. “Dinner already?” “Mhm.” Pei Siyue nodded, then asked,…

What felt off? Everything felt off. In the past, Pei Siyue genuinely had no interest in omegas, didn’t care whether they were good or not. But now, he thought of Ruan Shuyang’s sweet, delicate lily-of-the-valley scent, his almond-shaped eyes with their stark contrast of black and white, his delicate, petite cherry lips, and that slender,…

The instant Pei Siyue fixed his gaze on him, Pei Siming felt every hair on his body stand on end. It was the sensation of being targeted by an extremely dangerous presence. His mind screamed to flee, while his alpha pheromones, threatened and uncontrollable, erupted violently—chaotic and laced with terror. But the instant his pheromones…

　　Pei Siyue was summoned to the study by Pei Yan. He walked straight to the window and stood there, not looking at Pei Yan. Pei Yan closed his eyes briefly, forcing himself to keep his temper in check as he asked, “What exactly are you thinking?” 　　“Nothing much,” Pei Siyue replied indifferently. “Just taking back…
