Chapter 101: Chapter 101 : Xie Jianyu’s Dilemma

"Eh? Wanrong just differentiated into an omega?"

Smiling, Lady Song nodded at her son.

"Can you believe it? The little Wanrong has actually bloomed into a beautiful omega! Fengxi, you will come with me to Qifeng Palace to celebrate her Initiation Day next week!"

Zhang Fengxi gave his mother a look.

"Mother, she is my little cousin. Do you expect me to woo her?"

Lady Song broke into laughter.

"Ohohohoho~!!! Fengxi, you are so silly. Someone as old as you should not prey on someone as young and vibrant as Wanrong, hohohoho~!!!"

"..."

Zhang Fengxi was not sure whether his mother meant to ridicule him or not. Was he that old? He had yet to reach his twentieth year!

In fact, Zhang Fengxi was glad that his parents did not push him to quickly start dating another omega. They understood that he and Liu Wenyuan needed some time for themselves to unravel the few problems between them.

They just didn’t know that he also had something going on with Xie Jianyu.

If they knew, they might imprison him for good in Longjing Palace’s dungeon, lest he made a fool of himself and dishonored the good name of his birth palace.

Song Wanrong’s Initiation Day arrived in a flash. Lady Song and Zhang Fengxi arrived at Qifeng Palace a day before because Lady Song wanted to help her birth family prepare for the event.

Lacking things to do, Zhang Fengxi spent his time walking around Qifeng City and enjoying the local dishes and the famous Phoenix Plum Wine that one could only get from the city.

Belly full of delicious food and drunk from the fragrant wine, Zhang Fengxi lay inside his private cubicle on the second floor of a tea house. One wall of the cubicle was replaced by a huge window that overlooked the bustling city underneath.

Zhang Fengxi was listening to the street merchants who tried their best to attract passing customers when his eyes were drawn to a familiar figure.

The young man was dressed in his usual golden robe with a dragon-shaped crown perching on top of his head.

"Xie Jianyu!"

Xie Jianyu looked up when he heard his name being called.

Zhang Fengxi waved at him with a grin.

"Fancy seeing the Crown Prince here. What are you up to?"

The words "Crown Prince" made several people turn their heads at once.

Xie Jianyu narrowed his eyes at Zhang Fengxi and pressed his lips together in annoyance. He then turned around and walked away.

Zhang Fengxi was baffled. He jumped off the second floor like a god and landed in front of Xie Jianyu.

"What’s the rush?"

Before Xie Jianyu answered, they heard the voice of the tea house owner behind them. The man ran after Zhang Fengxi like a furious debt collector.

"Young Master!" he cried out pitifully. "You have not paid for your tea!"

And the snacks.

And the jugs of wine.

Zhang Fengxi laughed awkwardly.

"I am sorry, let me pay for my meal," he said.

Zhang Fengxi then grabbed Xie Jianyu’s hand and dragged him toward the tea house.

"Let me go!" Xie Jianyu shouted. "Zhang Fengxi!"

Zhang Fengxi ignored the Crown Prince’s protests. His steel-hard grip left Xie Jianyu no choice but to follow Zhang Fengxi.

"Why are you so cranky today? You are going to make the phoenixes lose their feathers from fright."

Xie Jianyu scoffed.

"What kind of answer is that? Hey, Xie Jianyu, come on. Are you angry at me?"

Xie Jianyu glared at Zhang Fengxi in response.

"Why do you keep pestering me?"

"I do not. Isn’t it normal to want to catch up when meeting good friends?"

"... Good friends?"

Zhang Fengxi raised an eyebrow at Xie Jianyu.

"Do you not consider us as good friends? Am I the only one who feels that way?"

"No... It is good to be good friends."

Zhang Fengxi’s face was pulled into a wide grin.

"So what’s up? Have you recovered from your injuries?"

In the last war, all four palace masters who summoned the Divine Beast Skill Array were heavily injured. Xie Jianyu who, despite being the youngest, was also the strongest cultivator among all four, sustained some minor injuries as opposed to the other three.

"En."

The two young men continued walking without further exchanges.

"What is troubling you? You can tell me. I can help," Zhang Fengxi offered after having to endure the suffocating silence.

"You..."

Xie Jianyu frowned, almost as if he was battling something in his heart.

"I, what?"

"You... have you ever been with a girl?"

"...."

Xie Jianyu quickly added, "I mean, beta girls or omegas."

"... Uh, I guess? I dated Liu Wenyuan, if you remember."

"I mean not just dating but..."

Xie Jianyu let out a small groan.

"Forget it."

"No, no, no. Talk. What do you mean?"

"I mean..."

Zhang Fengxi stared at Xie Jianyu as the latter opened his mouth and closed it again many times.

"I mean... sleep with... you know."

Zhang Fengxi’s stare became more intense.

Yes, he did. In his previous life. In this life, up to this point, he had yet to lay with anyone.

"Not really, but I do know a thing or two about sexual intercourse."

Red color crept into Xie Jianyu’s cheeks.

"I... uhh..."

"Just say it out loud. What do you want to know?"

Xie Jianyu grabbed Zhang Fengxi’s wrist and dragged him to a remote alley.

"I need to know how many times an alpha has to... you know, before the act concludes."

"...."

Xie Jianyu’s head glowed bright red like one of the lanterns that flew up the sky during the Winter Solstice Festival. He took a deep breath, gathered all ounce of courage in his body, and asked the question in one go.

"How many times does the alpha need to go in and out of the omega in order to successfully carry out the marital act?"

"....."

Oh, gods and deities in heaven.

Zhang Fengxi could feel heat climbing up his cheeks. Had he ever asked this kind of embarrassing question to anyone?

May heaven have mercy on his soul.
