The Crematorium’s Scum Gong Gets to Clock Off After Being Replaced 89

Chapter 89: AE13

Is Gu Xiu deliberately playing dumb?

He had already graduated from university for a year. At the age of 22, and as an Alpha, he should have already received sex education from his classes and various online resources, right?

But looking at Gu Xiu and his fiancée’s relationship status, it was hard to say if they had ever been completely marked. He probably wouldn’t even need these little toys that added to the fun.

If he wasn’t deliberately playing dumb, it could also be that he was deliberately luring the enemy.

Gu Xiu’s ridiculous guess of a “puppy collar” was also like a hint. An Alpha, who actually disregarded an Omega who was 100% compatible with him, could it be that—he didn’t like Omegas at all?

He didn’t want to tame others, but instead looked forward to being tamed by others.

Just like puppies, they had fierce canines like Alphas, but they would always look up with eager eyes, begging for their master’s gentle caress. Their limbs were strong, but they were willing to be bound by a collar, led by a leash, and wherever their master went, they would follow.

Jin Chenhan absentmindedly fiddled with the bell in his hand, making a crisp sound.

Gu Xiu looked up. Behind the gentle glasses, a pair of black eyes were clear and distinct.

He had smoothly entered a working state again and asked, “Mr. Jin, how should I deal with these cardboard boxes?”

Jin Chenhan lowered his eyes. “Just throw them outside the door. Someone will clean them up.”

At seven in the evening, after leaving Jin Chenhan’s house, Gu Xiu returned to the marital home downstairs with Lin Zijun.

Although it was called a marital home, it was of course a house that the Gu family’s parents had bought for him, registered under his name. It was just that most of the time, it was left to Lin Zijun to live in alone.

For the first time, the house was so lively.

On both sides of the sofa, on one side was Lin Zijun, who was nervously holding the hem of his pants, and on the other was a beautiful middle-aged woman.

007 introduced to Gu Xiu: 【That’s your mother! She looks very powerful, doesn’t she? Every time you’re not feeling well or you have a fight with her, she’ll come and trouble the protagonist shou. Of course, you’ll only know these things when you’re in the crematorium, and you’ll know how much the protagonist shou has suffered because of you…】

“Xiuxiu!” Seeing Gu Xiu come back, Mother Gu’s seriously furrowed brow suddenly relaxed, revealing a brilliant smile. “Quick, let Mom take a look. You’ve lost weight again…”

Mother Gu sized him up from top to bottom, her eyes full of heartache and concern.

Gu Xiu had never experienced such a situation before and was stunned.

Mother Gu didn’t need him to say anything and asked again, “Where did you go? Why did you come back so late? Because of… Zijun?”

Lin Zijun’s face on the opposite side turned a little ugly, but Gu Xiu shook his head and said truthfully, “I went to work overtime. I’m Mr. Jin’s temporary secretary now, so I’m much busier than before.”

“Oh my, work is important, but no matter how busy you are, you can’t neglect your body…” Mother Gu said, and then she suddenly changed the subject. “Have you had a mental power check-up recently? Has the damage recovered a little? Why are there still so many inhibitors in your house?”

Gu Xiu and Lin Zijun had never done anything that lovers should do. Not only had they not received each other’s comfort, but they had also gone into heat several times because of each other’s pheromones. Not only had the damage not gotten better, but it had also worsened.

This was a secret that the two of them strictly kept, and the Gu family’s parents were the people they needed to keep their mouths shut to the most.

Mother Gu’s one question made the entire house fall into a silence that lasted for several seconds.

“By the way,” Gu Xiu changed the subject. “…Mom, why are you here?”

“Isn’t it just to see you guys?” Mother Gu said. “And also, I just came over and saw Zijun packing his luggage, saying he’s going on a business trip? What’s that all about? When did he find a job? He’s your Omega now. How can he go on a long trip? And for several days!”

Gu Xiu was also stunned for a moment. This was a completely unexpected situation outside of the novel.

In the novel, Lin Zijun came from a poor small town, had dropped out of high school, and had a cowardly and timid personality. He was an extremely traditional Omega who was completely subservient to Alphas. Ever since he was engaged to Gu Xiu, Gu Xiu had become the center of his world. He had not gone to work again, and all he thought about every day was how to please his Alpha.

Half of the novel’s content was about him being heartbroken by his scum gong fiancé, and the other half was about his stimulating affair with his fiancé’s superior. His career line only showed a hint at the end of the novel, and it was just a brief mention.

The plot was really getting more and more out of control. Now he was going to work? And he even dared to argue with his most feared Mother Gu…

Seeing Gu Xiu standing on his mother’s side and looking over with an uncomprehending gaze, Lin Zijun’s face turned red with anxiety. He once again mustered up the courage and said in one go, “I finally found this job… I can only pay you back if I go to work.”

Finally, the gaze he looked at Gu Xiu with was extremely weak, and in the end, it actually showed a hint of hardness. He said word by word, very seriously, “Gu Xiu, you told me that true love can overcome instinct. Studying and working also have to fight against innate laziness… I think you’re right. I can’t just sit here and wait for death, living from day to day. I also want to earn money with my own hands!”

Mother Gu rolled her eyes in disdain. “He’s just an Omega…”

“Mom!” Gu Xiu interrupted. “You’re also an Omega… mmm, don’t be angry. You’re an A-rank Omega, different from a normal Omega.”

Gu Xiu had accidentally angered his mother. He had no choice but to use his work experience from this period, said a few nice words, and only then did he look at the silent Lin Zijun.

Lin Zijun’s eyes were slightly red. He didn’t know if it was from being wronged or something else.

Mother Gu’s anger had not yet subsided. She picked up her handbag. “Forget it! I don’t want to care about you anymore. Don’t say those things. The most practical thing is to let me have a grandson soon!”

Gu Xiu saw her out, closed the door, and let out a big sigh of relief.

When he turned his head, Lin Zijun was right there, and a floral scent rushed at him, so scared that his brow furrowed tightly.

Lin Zijun quickly took two steps back, looking pitiful and on the verge of tears. “Gu Xiu, I really didn’t expect…”

I didn’t expect you to defend me in front of your mother.

This feeling made Lin Zijun feel very strange. Speaking of which, the Gu Xiu in front of him was also a little strange.

This strange feeling probably started from when Gu Xiu had told him that true love could overcome instinct.

But his innately stupid brain couldn’t figure it out. He just felt an unprecedented confusion, like falling into a sticky porridge, with a vast expanse of white on all four sides, and a spoon was constantly stirring, making it more and more chaotic.

Even if the Gu Xiu in front of him was glaring at him and scolding, “Lin Zijun, stay away from me. Your pheromones are choking me.”

The most hurtful words, coming from the mouth of a 100% compatible Alpha, did not give Lin Zijun the familiar stinging pain from before. He pulled away as Gu Xiu had requested, and then asked with some caution, “Then can I go on a business trip? I have to leave tomorrow…”

Of course, Gu Xiu couldn’t wait. But his mouth was in a bad mood. “Whatever. It’s none of my business.”

This scum gong persona of his was actually quite twisted. It was true that he looked down on and disliked the protagonist shou, but if the protagonist shou really grew wings and wanted to run away, or was picked up by someone else and was doted on and cherished, it would arouse his strong anger and jealousy. The main thing was the principle of “I don’t want it myself, but you can’t have it either.”

That was why his crematorium was particularly satisfying for the readers.

Gu Xiu’s harsh words, at least, had given Lin Zijun the freedom to work. The latter was overjoyed and said attentively, “Gu Xiu, then I’ll make you something delicious tonight. I’ll make more so you can heat it up and eat it tomorrow. What do you want to eat?”

Gu Xiu turned to the guest room in frustration. “Hurry up and go. Don’t bother me.”

The next morning, Gu Xiu opened his door to a brand new, fresh, and Lin Zijun-less house.

As long as Lin Zijun and his pheromones were not there, living in his own house was much more comfortable than the cramped space of a hotel.

This house belonged to the original owner. Gu Xiu himself had only been here a few times. The strange residential area had pavilions and water features, with a greening rate of over 50%. It was also winding, making it difficult to tell east from west.

Gu Xiu bought some daily necessities and went home. He accidentally took a big detour, and the road in front of him became more and more unfamiliar. He lowered his head to check the navigation and suddenly heard a faint whining sound.

It was like a baby animal.

Gu Xiu was stunned for a moment and summoned 007. 【Quick, scan for me. Is there a kitten or a puppy in the bushes over there… Speaking of which, this small world of yours is quite realistic. It even has stray animals…】

Gu Xiu was mumbling to himself, and 007 quickly gave him a definite location.

Gu Xiu found the right spot and suddenly attacked. With a long arm, he scooped up the short-legged puppy that didn’t have time to escape.

007 said, 【In the following plot, the protagonist shou will pick up a puppy to accompany him because he is lonely. Of course, one day you will come home and find a puppy that is shedding all over the spotless house, and you will be furious. When you and the protagonist shou are arguing, the puppy will run out, and later, it will be the protagonist gong who will help him find the puppy back in the rain at night.】

So that’s how it is.

【It’s so small. If I don’t take care of it, it might not be able to hold on until Lin Zijun comes back…】 Gu Xiu thought for a moment. 【How about I build a kennel for it and come to feed it every day? The weather is warm now, so it should be fine.】

Because his dominant right hand was injured, Jin Chenhan had been working from home these past few days. Gu Xiu had taken a small long vacation. If there was anything, Jin Chenhan would contact him online, or ask him to come to his house to help. His work was flexible, and he didn’t have to sit in the office for long hours.

Gu Xiu had 007 give the puppy a check-up and confirmed that the puppy was lively and had no injuries or illnesses. It was just skin and bones from being a stray, and its small body was not very strong.

He was relieved. He found a place where there were usually no people and a pile of junk, and used cardboard to build a dog kennel on the spot, and put the puppy in it. At the same time, he ordered food bowls, dog food, and toys for the puppy online for express delivery.

While waiting, he took his own things back to the apartment building, got a bottle of clean boiled water, and was about to go downstairs again.

The elevator came down from the top floor. When it opened on the eighth floor, there was already a person inside.

Jin Chenhan was wearing a rare casual outfit. When he saw Gu Xiu, a hint of surprise appeared in his gray eyes, and he asked, “Are you living here now?”

“This is my home…” Gu Xiu said. “I was staying at a hotel before because we had a fight.”

Jin Chenhan replied faintly, “Is that so,” and did not continue to ask, very tactful.

Gu Xiu thought for a moment. To prevent the protagonist gong from being wary of him and no longer coming to his house for an affair, he added, “It’s also convenient to help you when I’m living here recently.”

Hearing this, Jin Chenhan curled his lips, looked at him from the side, and just then, the elevator reached the first floor.

Unfortunately, Jin Chenhan’s phone rang, interrupting their further conversation. Jin Chenhan glanced at the caller ID, frowned, and held his phone to signal to Gu Xiu, then he turned around. “I’ll take a call. You can go and do your thing. We’ll talk later.”

The two of them went their separate ways.

Jin Chenhan walked a little further away before he answered.

Doctor Hou’s voice came from the receiver. “Mr. Jin, the pheromone compatibility test between you and that Alpha is out.”

In that instant, Jin Chenhan could almost hear his own heart pounding. He suppressed the urgency in his voice and asked faintly, “How is it?”

Doctor Hou said, “50%.”

It was not an unexpected answer, but it froze Jin Chenhan’s expectant and joyful heart.

“Uh… because the system can only test AO and compatibility,” Doctor Hou added. “So I set you as an A and him as an O for the test. The result may not be accurate. After all, our hospital has never had an Enigma case before you.”

Jin Chenhan said helplessly, “That test system, as long as it’s an A and an O being tested, the minimum compatibility is 50%, right?”

Otherwise, how could an AO be a match made in heaven? Therefore, Gu Xiu and his fiancée’s 100% compatibility was not particularly rare. Even for free-love AOs, the compatibility was generally over 80%.

In other words, this 50% compatibility was a kind of “consolation prize.” You get it just by being tested.

Jin Chenhan rubbed his brow and sighed. “But, I really like his pheromones, and he’s not repulsed by mine. Our compatibility shouldn’t be this low.”

“Liking is one thing, and being suitable is another,” Doctor Hou said. “As for being suitable, of course an Alpha is more suitable with an Omega. Just like some Beta couples who are a good match, even if there’s no love left, because they’re suitable, they can still live a peaceful and stable life together.”

Doctor Hou said persuasively, “Mr. Jin, no matter how gentle an Alpha is, he’s still an Alpha. To make them submit to others is against their instinct.”

This should be enough to dispel Mr. Jin’s terrifying and immoral thoughts, right? Jin Chenhan in front of him had his eyes lowered, silent for a long while, looking as if he had been convinced.

Who knew that just as Doctor Hou turned around, he suddenly raised his head and smiled. “Since we’re not a good match in any way, then we can only work hard to overcome our instincts. Overcome the influence of pheromones and have a free love like a Beta. This is also what he really wants.”

Doctor Hou: “…”

What kind of free love is it to mess with someone else’s fiancé?
