The man crouched down, his features indiscernible in the darkness. Gu Qinglan gazed at those eyes for a long time - black obsidian, icy and mysterious, their profound darkness drawing her in.

The man extended his index finger and lightly touched Gu Qinglan's enticing lips. Their temperatures matched, and the pheromones entwined, as if a current of electricity flowed into their bodies. The ocean within Gu Qinglan surged uncontrollably, forming gigantic waves.

His hands wrapped around the man's neck, he didn't care if he was human or a ghost... he simply couldn't control himself.

Two faces were close together in the darkness, with Gu Qinglan's hot breath hitting the other's face. They were pressed tightly against each other, with the other person's body hotter and their breath slightly heavy. Their eyes were like deep pools of water, and their whole body exuded a restrained and sweet scent of alcohol. It was irresistibly alluring to Gu Qinglan, making his soul tremble. He couldn't control himself, wishing to be claimed fiercely at this moment.

"Brother Ghost, please help me..."

The man's hand reached his waist and the back of his neck. The cool minty scent of pheromones was so refreshing that one could not bear to violate it. Gu Qinglan couldn't help but let out a sigh as if finding solace for his soul. He pressed his face against the other person's face, and the sound of their lips and teeth made a soft and delicate noise in the darkness, arousing people's imagination. Gu Qinglan stretched his neck towards him and asked for help, "Help me..."

Gu Qinglan immediately obtained what he desired. His words and tonguе were completely captured, unable to relieve the fiery burning inside him. Instead, he only added fuel to the fire, as their bodies intertwined, trying every possible method to merge with each other. Their bones seemed to creak and creak, like dry firewood and fierce flames lacking nothing. Like a pearl hidden in a clam, like birds entangled on a tree branch, like rain beating on a colorful flower pattern.

Gu Qinglan is not like other passive Omega. Although he is currently lost and depressed in life, it doesn't hinder his initiative. Not only does he take the initiative to pester others, but he also takes the initiative to seek kisses and help others undress. The other person is a ghost, what is there to be afraid of?

The icy cold air in the wine cellar couldn't dispel the fervent embrace. Their bodies sincerely clung to each other, caught up in a chaotic and passionate moment. At that moment, Gu Qinglan reached out to touch his face, wanting to feel what this ghostly looking man was like, but her hand was caught.

His body was being forcefully manipulated by the other party, surrounded by a powerful scent of red wine, thick and rich as if it were substantial.

Gu Qinglan's emotions soared, her mind in a whirlwind, as she let out joyful cries. These cries undeniably invited a deeper invasion. Gu Qinglan's face turned hot, and she buried her face in his solid and broad shoulder, her breath scorching, still under his possession.

His facial features were originally attractive, inheriting his mother's excellent appearance along with his younger brother. There was a natural sense of restraint in their contours, even though their faces couldn't be clearly seen in the darkness. At this moment, with a spring-like expression filling his eyes, it was impossible for him to control his emotions. For an Alpha, it was irresistibly alluring, and the cool minty breath instead ignited a profound possessiveness within him.

He wrapped his waist with one hand, encircling his arm with the other, embracing him with an irresistible force. Gu Qinglan felt both pain and pleasure, and suddenly, there was a sting on the side of his neck. It was the first time he had been marked by someone. He could only feel one thing—exhilaration. At the same time, he was also confused and at a loss. His lips trembled lightly, as if a wave of indescribable numbness spread through his joints, causing a slight spasm in his body. Tears welled up in his eyes as he took in shallow breaths. He couldn't resist the most sincere feelings in his heart. It was the first time he experienced the joy of being an Omega.

The wild waves on the sea slowly settled down and became calm. Gu Qinglan gasped for breath, closed her eyes, and felt the residual tides rolling within her body.

Maybe it was the emptiness after venting that made people realize the purity of the world, or perhaps it was the overwhelming waves of emotion that left Gu Qinglan, who was experiencing the ups and downs of life for the first time, at a loss. Despite his body being sore, he quickly grabbed his clothes and fled. He didn't even dare to look back at the ghost... or should I say, the person behind him.

Hmm... That is a person...

Gu Qinglan squatted on the side of the road in annoyance, grabbing her hair, her gaze staring blankly at the ants under her feet. The loose shirt casually draped over her trousers, forgetting to wear the suit, the faint traces of kisses hidden in the collar, and his swollen lips drew even more attention, one could imagine the madness of that moment. Gu Qinglan buried her head, she could hardly recognize herself anymore. Whenever she thought of those blurry but intense images, she couldn't help but blush and her heart would race.

Forget about that dark warehouse and that warm man amidst the bright and bustling world outside.

Warm? Gu Qinglan shook her head. Why would he use that word?

Following the evening glow of the sunset and the direction of the seagulls, Gu Qinglan put her hand on her neck and along the way back home, she also conveniently bought a pancake to relieve stress.

A week later, at the same public restroom, Gu Qinglan swallowed the last pill. He adjusted his suit, feeling the unnoticeable gland hidden beneath his neck. He shook off the blurry man in his mind.

The paragraph translates to: The cars were honking and merging through the chaotic traffic, while the scorching sun shone fiercely overhead. Suddenly, a message from the landlord appeared on the phone: "If you don't pay the rent next month, I won't be able to help you anymore, huh."

Gu Qinglan did not reply to the message. As long as she could pass this interview, she would have enough money for rent and her younger brother's tuition.

In the reception hall of AL headquarters, occasional traces of Alpha pheromones wafted in the air, overwhelming Gu Qinglan with various scents that made it hard for him to breathe. Thankfully, he had become smarter and took medication in advance to prevent another episode like last time.

He has passed both the written exam and the martial arts exam, and now only the final interview remains.

"Number 14, Gu Qinglan."

Gu Qinglan stood up and headed towards the general manager's office, hearing from others that it was the general manager who would be conducting the interview personally.

His facial expression was tense, his eyes blinked, and his middle finger and thumb rubbed lightly. The door opened, and Gu Qinglan quickly went in. The office was serene and solemn. Passing by the simple and plain antique cabinet, she saw a man concentrating on documents behind a mahogany desk.

He seemed to not have noticed her arrival. Gu Qinglan regretted that her footsteps were too light when she had come in earlier. Now, how should she open her mouth to break the silence?

Hmm... Gu Qinglan is so introverted that he's practically becoming a hermit in Inner Mongolia.
