Alpha's magnetic and low voice was so captivating that Tian Xinyuan didn't react in that moment.

This brought a strange feeling to Tian Xinyuan.

Just like...

It's as if he should have been familiar with himself.

But in his current impression, the mature and handsome Alpha across from him is a completely unfamiliar presence.

"Tian Xinyuan?"

Alpha seemed to have detected a trace of panic in his eyes, and then he chuckled softly.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Afraid?"

Ye Chen's words left Tian Xinyuan stunned for a moment.

Fear is certainly present, but none of it is as overwhelming as the tension in their hearts at this very moment.

Before the marriage alliance, they could confidently and calmly analyze the situation in front of Tian Ke. But now, that composure has long since disappeared.

He is ultimately still a teenager who has just come of age.

Tian Xinyuan stubbornly refused to show his fear.

After the passengers got off the car, the driver drove it into the parking lot. Only two people remained standing in front of the gate, wordlessly facing each other.

Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He told himself that after all, Tian Xinyuan was still young. It was inevitable for a young cub who had just left the sheltered harbor to be a little emotional when faced with a new environment. He needed time to slowly adapt.

After a moment of contemplation, he reached out to the Omega in front of him in an attempt to ease the tension between them. "Your brother, Tian Ke, and I are peers and have been friends for many years. If you find it difficult to accept your current identity, you can also call me 'brother'."

Alpha's tone was gentle. "Speaking of which, when we were younger, I would often see you following Tian Ke, calling him 'big brother' with so much joy."

Tian Xinyuan couldn't remember the details of his childhood very clearly, but he had some vague and hazy impressions.

He looked at the palm of the Alpha in front of him, without much hesitation, and placed his hand into the other person's palm. It was as if he acknowledged what Yechen said, and softly said, "I... I'm not afraid of you."

Omega's hands were delicate and fair, just like Tian Xinyuan's gentle and tender nature. When Ye Chen held onto them, he suddenly felt an overwhelming desire not to let go.

But it was only a passing thought that surged up at that moment.

Because he was afraid that any of his subsequent actions would startle the timid and delicate Omega before him unintentionally.

Alpha, out of politeness, let go of Omega's hand after bringing them inside the house. Tian Xinyuan was briefly absent-minded and then heard the other party say, "You don't have to worry too much."

Ye Chen tried to speak in a convincing manner, "Moreover, you and I both know that this is a marriage for show, without any substantial changes. Tian Ke had specifically instructed me before to take good care of you."

The two-story duplex was desolate and devoid of any vitality before Tian Xinyuan moved in. Ye Chen was busy with work, shuttling back and forth between the Ye family's main residence and the company, with no time to stay in this house. If it weren't for this being chosen as their wedding house, they probably wouldn't have had any time to set foot inside.

After a brief period of time has passed, upon taking another look at the arrangement of this room today, I realized that it has undergone significant changes.

At a glance, it is evident without much consideration that all of this was orchestrated by Yu Yao. Being a loving and eager mother, especially since her son finally agreed to get married after much difficulty, how could she allow the decoration of the wedding house to be biased towards a cold color palette of gray and white!

Change, everything needs to be changed.

Yuyao didn't need to personally take action. With just her command, people immediately started rearranging the layout of this duplex apartment. Moreover, due to it being their wedding room, it immediately transformed into a joyful and festive atmosphere.

There was no arrangement for a butler in the house, so Yu Yao's intentional arrangement could be considered comprehensive. She wasn't worried about whether the young couple would develop feelings for each other. Living together for a long time, there were many unpredictable factors.

Even on their wedding night, Tian Xinyuan was not likely to share a bed with an unfamiliar Alpha. Ye Chen seemed to have anticipated this situation and arranged a guest room near the master bedroom for Tian Xinyuan to stay in.

"Get some rest early."

Ye Chen escorted Tian Xin Yuan to the door of the room.

"Goodnight."

Tian Xinyuan's face turned slightly red unconsciously, and he lowered his head and responded softly.

"Ye... Ye Chen, goodnight."

Omega's obedient appearance made him unable to resist the urge to reach out and pat the other's head, but considering the current relationship between the two, he had to suppress the impulse in his heart.

Tian Xinyuan closed the door and only realized that the other person had walked away when he heard the sound of footsteps outside.

He reached out and rubbed his flushed cheeks.

Alpha was unfamiliar with this feeling, this inability to control the blushing on his face was equally foreign to him.

Besides at school, Tian Xinyuan had never had any contact with adult Alphas other than his family, let alone someone like Ye Chen.

Mature, handsome, and sexy Alpha men are often the objects of fantasy for some young Omegas in their prime.

Tian Xinyuan has never been in love, but that doesn't stop him from secretly wondering what his future other half, an Alpha, will be like in his heart.

Undeniably, Ye Chen did not give him the awful impression that Tian Ke had described. On the contrary, the other party was a very good, highly exceptional Alpha who could be considered a suitable partner.
