Accidental Mark (COMPLETED)

Chapter 47
The two of them were thinking about their own matters under the green shade. Suddenly, Cheng Xia’s phone rang. He took a look. It was a call from his agent Zhou Yan. He hurriedly picked up. “Hello, Sister Yan?”

Zhou Yan’s voice was a bit anxious. “Cheng Xia, where are you? I just came to your room and knocked on the door. No one answered. Are you not in your room?”

Cheng Xia explained. “I went downstairs to read my script. Sister Yan, are you looking for me for something?”

Zhou Yan had been frightened every day since the last time Cheng Xia was stabbed and went to the hospital. She always had a strange instinct that President Pei was paying special attention to Cheng Xia. She was afraid that Cheng Xia would be injured and it would be difficult for her to explain to President Pei. She came to see Cheng Xia early in the morning and there was no one in the room. She had been really taken aback.

Zhou Yan was slightly relieved when Cheng Xia said he was reading the script downstairs. She told him, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to ask you to have breakfast. The hotel’s breakfast is in the restaurant on the second floor. The time is from 7:30 – 8:30. Are you coming now?”

Cheng Xia glanced at Pei Shaoze inquiringly. Seeing President Pei nod, Cheng Xia said, “Okay, Sister Yan. I will come back now.”

Cheng Xia hung up the phone and asked with a smile, “Do you want to eat breakfast?”

Pei Shaoze nodded. “Yes, we should go back.”

They returned to the hotel side by side. At the entrance of the lobby, Pei Shaoze stopped and whispered in Cheng Xia’s ear, “I’ll go back to my room to change clothes. You go to the restaurant first.”

Cheng Xia knew President Pei’s concerns. If the two of them went to the restaurant to eat together, it was inevitable that people would think too much. Cheng Xia nodded in understanding and said toward Pei Shaoze, “Yes, see you later President Pei.”

The two of them took separate elevators in the lobby. Pei Shaoze returned to his room while Cheng Xia went to the second floor to eat first.

Pei Shaoyan had just woken up and was washing his face when Pei Shaoze swiped his card to enter his room. He saw his brother wiping the water off his face and turned to ask, “Brother, where did you go so early in the morning? You weren’t there when I woke up.”

Pei Shaoze answered, “I went out for a run.”

He bypassed his brother and went to the bathroom of the inner room. He took a quick shower and changed out of his sportswear into suit pants and a white shirt.

The climate here was hot and all the shirts he wore were short-sleeved shirts. He didn’t need to attend a formal meeting today so he didn’t wear a tie. By the time he went out, Pei Shaoyan had already washed and sprayed something on his body with a bottle. The air was filled with a faint cologne smell. Pei Shaoze glanced at his younger brother and asked casually, “You are young. Do you spray perfume on your body when going out?”

“Perfume?” Pei Shaoyan was stunned and looked at his older brother doubtfully. “This is a pheromones masking agent.” He turned the bottle over, looked at the logo again and wondered, “Brother, I might’ve bought a new model but shouldn’t you be able to recognize it?”

Pei Shaoze frowned in a questioning manner. “Pheromones masking agent?”

They were strange words he was hearing for the first time. He took the bottle from his brother’s hand. The shape of the bottle resembled male perfume but the bottle was marked with ‘short-acting alpha pheromones masking agent’ and detailed instructions for use. Adult alphas could spray this on their body after bathing and the coverage effect lasted for 24 hours.
