After the Breakup, He Washed Away the Memories Chapter 46

Chapter 46

“Qiuqiu, give me another chance.”

Qin Muye’s words had a specific meaning. The reason he used the word “again” was that he couldn’t get over the hurdle in his heart. Five years ago, he lost Rong Qiu, who loved him wholeheartedly. Now he needed Rong Qiu.

But Rong Qiu didn’t think so much.

He only thought that after being rejected by him last time, Qin Muye still had feelings for him.

He even sent another request to be a bed partner.

Rong Qiu didn’t respond.

He didn’t know what to say.

The gentle evening breeze tousled his hair. After just a few steps, he was sweating profusely. He gently brushed his damp hair back, revealing a clean and exquisite face.

After a while, Rong Qiu said lightly, “Commander Qin, as I told you before – I’m the one on top. I think Commander Qin should understand the meaning behind my words. I won’t and can’t be the one who’s suppressed.”

Qin Muye: …

This was a question he had been ignoring, and the reason he didn’t dare to approach Rong Qiu these past few days.

He didn’t know why Rong Qiu had inexplicably become the one on top. Moreover, Rong Qiu, his beta lover, had an unclear background. No matter how much information he checked about Rong Qiu, he couldn’t find any clues about his beta lover.

Not even a trace.

If he couldn’t find anything, it probably didn’t exist.

Facing Rong Qiu’s rejection again, Qin Muye stopped, looked down at him, and said, “Qiuqiu.”

“Commander Qin, just call me by my name, Rong Qiu.”

Little Qiu was too intimate, and so was Qiuqiu.

Qin Muye paused, stubbornly skipped the name, and said, “Do you really have a beta lover?”

Rong Qiu was puzzled, not understanding what he meant. “Why wouldn’t I? A living person has been with me for more than a year. Even if he’s dead, I won’t forget him.”

After speaking, Rong Qiu couldn’t help but turn his silver ring. 

Every time he thought of Ah Ye, he would make this motion. This silver ring was made by him for Ah Ye. He wore one himself, and Ah Ye had nine.

His memories and these specific items wouldn’t deceive him.

Ah Ye did exist in his life.

Even if someone died, he shouldn’t forget.

In Qin Muye’s eyes, Rong Qiu’s current expression seemed full of sorrow.

Since their reunion, he had always seen Rong Qiu as confident and composed, not even frowning when encountering things related to Chu Ming. But now, because of a beta, Rong Qiu showed such a pained expression.

Clearly, Rong Qiu’s joys and sorrows should exist for him.

Qin Muye’s arm veins tightened.

He had to admit that at this moment, his jealousy was driving him crazy.

***

The conversation did not proceed smoothly. When they reached the car, Qin Zexi urged the two behind to hurry. Since Rong Qiu wasn’t driving, he was invited into Qin Muye’s car.

Qin Zexi held onto Rong Qin without letting go. As an AB pair, naturally, they sat in the back.

Rong Qiu was stunned, leaving only the front passenger seat and one seat in the back.

Qin Muye didn’t understand why Rong Qiu stopped walking. He paused beside Rong Qiu, then bent down to open the front passenger door for him.

After getting in the car, Rong Qiu heard a disdainful sound from the backseat. Rong Qin slapped the alpha resentfully, and Qin Zexi moved his hostile gaze away.

Rong Qiu felt awkward.

He, when did he offend Qin Zexi?

This was the first time Rong Qiu saw Qin Zexi in person.

Qin Zexi’s appearance was similar to the online photos, and he resembled Qin Muye a lot. However, the former was more unrestrained, while the latter was more stable and refined. Rong Qiu didn’t know what Qin Zexi and Rong Qin were saying in a low voice, but halfway through, Rong Qin scolded him angrily; Rong Qiu didn’t want to eavesdrop on others’ private matters. However, the commotion from behind was too loud. He glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that the two of them were already fighting.

Rong Qin pressed down on Qin Zexi, grabbing his collar, while Qin Zexi kept a cold expression. Wherever Rong Qin struck, he blocked.

Rong Qiu watched with trepidation.

But seeing that Qin Muye, who was driving, didn’t intervene, he silently withdrew his gaze.

Well, as long as Rong Qin isn’t the one being beaten.

***

Qin Muye dropped Rong Qiu at the villa, and Rong Qin also took the opportunity to get out of the car. Seeing Qin Zexi following him, Rong Qin sternly shouted.

“If you come over again tonight, I’ll change the planet immediately.”

Qin Zexi instantly halted.

The two brothers could only watch Rong Qiu and Rong Qin’s figures disappear behind the villa door.

After closing the door, Rong Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Rong Qin looking exhausted, Rong Qiu couldn’t help but find it amusing. However, ever since he learned that Rong Qin’s partner was Qin Zexi, every time he looked at Rong Qin, there was a strange admiration and brightness in his eyes.

Big Brother Rong Qin is truly amazing.

This kind of strength was not only reflected in Rong Qin’s combat power and intelligence but now extended to Rong Qin’s determination.

A beta in a relationship with an S-rank alpha from the Federation.

And he could keep this alpha under control.

While Rong Qiu was drinking water in the kitchen, Rong Qin immediately stopped Rong Qiu’s praise, “It’s not that romantic. It started as a bed-partner relationship.”

Rong Qin used a more straightforward and vulgar language than Rong Qiu: “No, ‘bed partner’ is not appropriate. At the beginning, we just liked each other’s bodies. We slept together for a few nights as f buddies.”

The more strict the military discipline, the more people’s desires would rebound.

Rong Qin was like this.

Rong Qin didn’t want to find those slackers in the military, and Qin Zexi was just right. Such an S-rank alpha, both in appearance and figure, was top-notch.

Rong Qin was very straightforward.

He admitted to his own vulgarity.

Greed for wealth, lust—human nature.

Sleeping with Qin Zexi, he didn’t feel shortchanged.

This kind of relationship lasted for a long time, until one day when he suddenly realized that it was time to find a stable beta, Qin Zexi, with crimson eyes, kicked open the door to his office.

Then he was dragged to the Civil Affairs Bureau by Qin Zexi.

***

When Rong Qiu finished his night routine and got into bed, it was already one in the morning. If tomorrow wasn’t Sunday, he wouldn’t have stayed up so late.

Staying up this late surprisingly helped him overcome his drowsiness. Lying in bed, his eyes sparkled like an excited nocturnal cat, despite being restricted in bed, his thoughts were unusually active.

He thought about the stories of Rong Qin and Qin Zexi from the night. 

Although Rong Qin’s story was brief, after hearing it, Rong Qiu secretly admired Rong Qin as an extraordinary person.

It felt like there was a superstar in his world, famous to the ends of the earth, but still distant. He could only see information about him in newspapers and various social media. Then one day, his good friend ran over and told him that he was together with that superstar.

As an observer, he felt naturally different from Rong Qin.

In his eyes, an alpha and a beta being together and becoming partners were already challenging. 

Having a beta partner with a top-notch alpha was even more difficult.

The importance of the alpha and omega populations in the federation goes without saying. An alpha’s matching partner will only be omegas. Capable of making the Civil Affairs Bureau open its doors for Qin Zexi, Qin Zexi’s efforts inside must have been considerable.

Rong Qin and Qin Zexi were the only AB pair he remembered.

For this couple, “timing, location, and people” were all crucial.

Timing: The alpha needed a beta because there were no unclaimed omegas.

Location: The alpha and beta liked each other, maintaining a bed-partner relationship.

People: When the alpha realized it, the bed-partner relationship evolved into a partnership.

Qin Zexi couldn’t get close to omegas, was it the same for Qin Muye?

Five years ago, he knew that Qin Muye had participated in the Federal Omega Matching Conference, where an S-rank alpha and forty-six S-rank omegas were present.

But the final result was inconclusive.

So now, did Qin Muye want to follow in his brother’s footsteps and find a beta bed partner?

But it didn’t make sense.

Because Rong Qiu still felt that Qin Muye seemed to have mistaken him for someone else. Moreover, this someone else was essential to Qin Muye, taking up a crucial position in his heart. Since that person was not around, Qin Muye chose to treat him as a substitute.

All the kindness towards him was due to “transference.”

Such kindness was too vague, like a dense fog in the forest, dispersing with a single blow of the wind.

***

However, Rong Qiu didn’t expect that the fog would return to his villa the next day.

Last night, there was a drizzle.

The stone paths outside had changed from light pink to deep red. Rong Qiu checked the time; it was eight o’clock, and he was ready to go to the cemetery to see how the artistic design of the tombstone for his beta lover was.

As soon as Rong Qiu opened the door, he bumped into someone.

The man had taken off his military uniform and put on a casual outfit that once again captivated Rong Qiu’s heart. A simple white T-shirt and black pants, with a pair of sneakers. His hair wasn’t neatly combed like yesterday; the strands fell casually, swaying lightly in the wind.

Very much like his beta lover.

Especially this face, combined with the young attire, resembled his beta lover tenfold.

Rong Qiu restrained his thoughts, politely averting his gaze. “Commander Qin, good morning.”

“Mm.” Qin Muye stared at the top of Rong Qiu’s head, not meeting his eyes directly. “Qiuqiu, if you have time, I’d like to chat with you.”

Rong Qiu glanced at his watch and expressed regret, “I’m sorry, I’m heading to the cemetery.”

Qin Muye was astonished, “Cemetery?”

“Yes, the tombstone design for my deceased beta lover and me is ready. I’m going to sign it.”
