SNOW CH83

Extra 2: Campus Forum

On the third day after the wedding, the guests began their return journeys home.

According to the original plan, the two grooms were supposed to leave the island with them, but due to some uncontrollable factors from the wedding night, Groom #1 had a susceptibility period flare-up. The two had no choice but to stay on the island for their “honeymoon.”

After two rounds of treatment, Fu Rangyi’s malignant syndrome had improved. His emotional symptoms like anxiety and self-loathing were very mild. However, the use of inhibitors was strictly forbidden during the course of treatment. Thus, Zhu Zhixi experienced a more prolonged and unforgettable susceptibility period than the one in C-City.

This time, Fu Rangyi was conscious for most of it. To say it was debauchery would be an overstatement, as he was too rational, but he wasn’t as restrained as he was outside his susceptibility period. He was creative with locations and methods, yet very mindful of Zhu Zhixi’s feelings, never hurting him. In the last few days, Zhu Zhixi felt in a daze as if he had really become an Omega, one in heat at that. The moment Fu Rangyi came near him, before he even did anything, without even a touch of a finger, he would melt into a puddle.

Reason made Zhu Zhixi want to refuse several times, even blurting out fierce threats like “I’ll call the police if you do it again.” But when it really happened, Zhu Zhixi realized he was thoroughly enjoying it. Even his tears weren’t from pain. If the police came, they would probably think he was making a false report…

Zhu Zhixi was incredibly grateful he had come to play for a few days beforehand; otherwise, his only impression of this small island would be this highly private luxury wilderness hotel.

On one occasion, he was leaning against the edge of the semi-open-air bathtub, drowsily staring at the orange sun about to set into the sea. When he looked down, he saw four hermit crabs crawling on the beach outside and thought he was hallucinating from the pain of being knotted. It wasn’t until those few hermit crabs climbed up the steps and nearly pinched his hand hanging outside the tub.

This incident even made Fu Rangyi laugh.

“What are you laughing at?” Zhu Zhixi, in his arms, blindly directed him. “Hurry up and catch these hermit crabs. I’ll roast them for dinner tonight.” Fu Rangyi suppressed his smile but said, “I’m also a hermit crab residing right now. I’m afraid I can’t help.”

“You! Fu Rangyi, you’re so annoying.”

“Annoying again? I’m truly sorry about that.”

“Fu Rangyi, if you’re sorry, why are you moving…”

A certain someone pretended not to understand and even asked, “Has your reproductive cavity gotten a little bigger again?”

Did it “grow” on its own? Zhu Zhixi was very angry, adding another small bite mark to Fu Rangyi’s already scarred shoulder.

Afterward, he ordered Fu Rangyi to catch hermit crabs all over the room. He didn’t catch any, but they did have crab for dinner, a pure, deshelled version prepared by a certain someone’s hands. After eating and drinking his fill, Zhu Zhixi, his wounds healed and pain forgotten, fell for the foxy spirit’s seduction once again and was lured back to bed.

“One more time and we’re getting a divorce, I’m serious!” Zhu Zhixi lay on the bed, kicking Fu Rangyi’s chest with his foot, only to have it caught and his calf bitten.

Fu Rangyi smiled. “You like ex-husband play that much? If we’re divorced, I won’t hold back.” Zhu Zhixi was about to faint. “Have you been holding back? Have you?”

After that, he really did faint and discovered that “ex-husband-gege” was indeed not lying.

It wasn’t until the seventh day after the wedding that they boarded their rebooked flight. Zhu Zhixi slept through most of it. Usually having a good appetite, he barely ate a few bites of his meal. When he woke up midway, he groggily went to the restroom and caused a bit of a mix-up.

“Sir, the Alpha restroom is this way,” a flight attendant said with a smile, gesturing to guide him. Zhu Zhixi was still dazed from sleep and took a while to react before honestly saying, “But I’m a Beta.” The flight attendant’s years of professional training and smile slipped. “You…” Zhu Zhixi, yawning, entered the Beta restroom.

Due to the excessive number of times he had been knotted, the S-pheromones on his body were so domineering that no other pheromones could cling to him for a short period. More accurately, even if they did, they would be completely covered. The concentration and purity were so high that one wouldn’t immediately think of marking, but rather that it was completely integrated with him as a person.

Beta Xiao Zhu, who had received an SA experience card, was oblivious to this. The real SA himself, however, wore a bracelet and a neck ring, not leaking a single bit of pheromones, and seemed more like a Beta.

After a long flight, the two finally landed in S-City. The first thing was to go to the Zhu family home for dinner. Zhu Zeran had already sent a driver to pick them up. While waiting for the car, Zhu Zhixi leaned completely against Fu Rangyi, boneless, scrolling through the comments under the vlog.

But his ears were sharp. He thought he heard someone call Fu Rangyi’s name. He looked up, glanced around, and saw a pair of young girls standing not far away, seemingly also waiting for a car. The moment he looked over, they were startled and turned their heads, avoiding his gaze in a panic.

He had a feeling they weren’t his fans, otherwise they would have greeted him. So he nudged Fu Rangyi with his elbow. “Husband.”

“Hmm?” Fu Rangyi turned his head. The brim of his baseball cap bumped the edge of Zhu Zhixi’s fisherman’s hat. So he simply pushed it up a bit, lowered his head, and kissed his nose. “What’s wrong?”

“Are those your students?” Zhu Zhixi tilted his chin towards the girls. “I heard them mention you just now.”

Fu Rangyi looked over, but the two girls immediately turned their backs to them. Zhu Zhixi burst out laughing. “No need to look. They definitely are.”

At this, Fu Rangyi had a very bad feeling. In a few days, he had to go back to school to guide students on their papers. Going back like this was not going to work. On the way, he logged onto the S University forum, wanting to request a post deletion, only to find that it was a deluge, endless. The funny thing was, he had even received a message sent by a student by mistake. Even funnier, it was an Alpha student.

[Wang Qi: Share Link]
[Wang Qi: OMG OMG, look at this thread, I’m shipping them like crazy, ahhhhh! I’m miserable in my professor’s class, but I’m practicing my smile like mad reading my professor’s CP thread!!!]
[Wang Qi: This vlog sent me to heaven. It’s so happy. Can I write Princess Xixi in my acknowledgments to thank him for giving my painful postgraduate life a big gift of happiness, ooooooh.]

A minute later, these three messages were retracted. Fu Rangyi had intended to pretend nothing had happened, but the words “Princess Xixi” crawled around in his mind like those four very present hermit crabs.

So, half a minute later:
[World-Renowned Professor 1: First, distinguish the usage of “的, 得, 地.” It’s “看得升天 (kàn de shēng tiān),” not “看的 (kàn de).” Use standard daily language so you won’t make mistakes when writing your thesis.]
[World-Renowned Professor 1: Second, Wang Qi, do you have new plans for your graduation next summer that I’m not aware of? Or have you already completed your thesis proposal and want to give me a surprise in the first week of school?]
[World-Renowned Professor 1: Lastly, if my partner is in your acknowledgments, there is no need to write my name.]

After sending it, Fu Rangyi read it over a few times himself and judged it to be too restrained, lacking in attack power and lethality. It wasn’t until a few minutes later, when he received a “kneeling gently” emoji from the student, that he felt a little better.

But he had already clicked on the gossip thread the student had mistakenly sent him a few minutes earlier. Seeing the title, he knew it was a fresh, hot-off-the-press post— My reward for a lifetime of a balanced diet has come!! Ran into FRY and his wife at the airport!

Post #0 (OP): So excited, posting pics to start!! [Share Image x5]

Post #1 (OP): This is a live report, my friends. OP and OP’s friend were just coming back from a concert and couldn’t get a cab for ages, then we ran into FRY and his wife! OMG, his wife’s face is palm-sized in person, and he’s super good at acting cute!

Post #2: Such fresh tea! I’m here!

Post #3: Holy crap, the other thread was right. They really did come back after so long (p.s. are Teacher Xiao Xi’s lips broken? They’re so red).

Post #4: What other thread? What did I miss?

Post #5: User above, there’s a vlog analysis thread. Someone followed the vlog and found FRY’s doctor friend’s social media account. The wedding was on July 8th. On July 12th, he posted a photo of a meal, and the IP was already in the country. Someone in the comments asked where the grooms were, and he replied that the grooms were too happy to leave. Plus, in the vlog, Xiao Xi mentioned a certain someone’s susceptibility period. We were all betting they wouldn’t be back for a while. I didn’t expect them to stay for a whole extra week! A week!!

Post #6: I saw a complaint video before. The person was a Beta who said he had an Alpha boyfriend, and whenever his susceptibility period came, it was like a heavenly punishment, almost like torture. The key is, an O has pheromones to soothe an A, so one time is usually enough. A B has nothing, so they have to rely on pure frequency. He said he wanted to break up… And then thinking about our Teacher Fu, who’s an SA.

Post #7: Imagining it, Xiao Xi is so delicate. Would he say in bed, “If we xx again, we’re getting a divorce”?

Post #8: What’s the difference between that and saying “I’ll quit sugar after this drink” and then getting a “one more bottle” cap?

Post #9: You guys are so bold to talk about this (). Aren’t you afraid of being reported by FRY?

Post #10: It’s fine, it’s fine. If FRY sees this, he’ll just be secretly pleased.

Post #11: Hahahaha, user above, do you not want your account anymore?

Post #12: Princess Xixi can still stand, so Teacher, you did hold back (). But why are they both wearing long sleeves in such hot weather? Long sleeves can’t hide the marks on their necks. You two must be biting the hell out of each other.

Post #13: Who was the first one to call him Princess Xixi? So talented, hhhh. Xiao Xi is so cute and coy in front of FRY, always wanting hugs. I’ve rewatched the beach scene at the end of the vlog where they were alone countless times.

Post #14: Someone went to that exhibition last winter. Xiao Xi is completely different in a professional setting. Super professional, has that curator aura. It’s hard to describe, just very high EQ, great at socializing, makes you feel like you’re basking in a spring breeze. And his problem-solving skills are also very strong, both light and able to command the room. But in front of FRY, he’s a completely different person, so good at acting cute. No wonder the iceberg melted like that. Admit it, Teacher Fu, you fell in love at first sight!

Post #15 (OP): Continuing the live report! It was my friend who recognized him first (she really binge-watched all of Xiao Xi’s videos overnight). The whole time, Teacher Xixi was leaning on FRY, his chin resting on his shoulder. He even blew in FRY’s ear while he was looking at his phone, poked his phone screen, and pretended to bite Fu Rangyi’s ear from a distance (it was just air, really). So cute, ooooh.

Post #16: I’m the OP’s friend! Adding something for her: when Xiao Xi was pretending to bite his ear, Teacher Fu even turned to look at him, seemed to say something like “Are you playing castanets?” and pinched Xiao Xi’s lips.

Post #17: Xiao Xi: I’ll bite you to death! (Kaka-ka) FRY: Who’s playing castanets by my ear? Is that you?

Post #18: So cute I’m rolling on the floor!!!

Post #19 (OP): Almost forgot a super important thing!!! You guys have no idea how strong the pheromones are on Teacher Xiao Xi right now. I could smell it from several meters away (S-pheromones are pretty intense anyway). A lot of Alphas passing by turned their heads.

Post #20: They were probably all thinking, “Who is this Alpha with no A-morals!” But it’s actually a completely oblivious little Beta (shrugs).

Post #21: Teacher Fu himself is fully equipped, though. He usually doesn’t even wear a neck ring during his susceptibility period. Was it too intense this time, so he’s afraid he’ll lose control in public?

Post #22: That’s the best part of their ship. FRY has been at S University for so many years, from student to teacher, and few people knew what his pheromones smelled like. It wasn’t until his wife appeared that everyone could only smell his pheromones on his wife.

Post #23: But for it to be this strong, you can imagine how intense this susceptibility period was.

Post #24: Just went to the other thread and got my fill. FRY is usually so cold and distant, seems super self-disciplined, just classes, research, mentoring students, and working out every day (we can’t even find his personal account to this day. Does an A who lifts and doesn’t post mirror selfies really exist in this world?). He seems like a desireless, otherworldly type. I didn’t expect him to be so much of a husband… choosing flowers for the wedding, collecting archaeological findings from all the places his wife has been, cooking noodles at midnight, making candy apples by hand. Damn, he seems like the type of Alpha who would secretly get up in the middle of the night to prepare a picnic basket if his wife said she wanted to go on a picnic.

Post #25: I stalked a lot of their wedding guests’ Instagrams. There’s a picture of Xiao Xi lying on a beach hammock with him standing next to it, pushing it. Someone in the comments said it was so sweet, and that guest replied that Xiao Xi’s feet were clean and he didn’t want to wear his slippers again and get sand on them, so FRY carried him all the way back. He’s just spoiling him rotten.

Post #27: Teacher, can you spoil a student like this just once? Just once…

Post #28: They spoil each other. I saw in the vlog comments someone asked why they had a forest wedding instead of a beach wedding on an island. Xiao Xi replied: “Because Teacher Fu said he wants to be a tree in his next life. When I first saw that tree, I felt a connection, like it was the tree Teacher Fu would become in his next life. So I wanted to get married under that tree, to kind of reserve his fate in the next life as well.” (p.s. this comment was buried deep before he replied, heaven knows how long he scrolled to find it).

Post #29: OMG, “I’ve reserved you for the next life too.” Don’t be so in love!!!

Post #30: I was wondering why the tree also had a wrist corsage like FRY’s. Turns out it was to mark her future husband in his reincarnation. So ENFP.

Post #31: I heard the tree was brought back (saw a post from a hotel staff member).

Post #32: !!! Brought back to the country? Where? Did Xiao Zhu buy it?

Post #33: No, Xixi’s brother bought it. It took two days to dig up. He shipped it back in the cargo hold of his private jet on the way.

Post #34: “On the way.” Even though I’m not an archaeology major, by extension, I’m from S University, which makes me FRY’s final disciple, which makes me like family to FRY. So, Uncle!! Uncle, can you let me see the tree and also give me five million in pocket money? ()

Post #35: @PrincessXixi, since this tree is the reincarnation of our S University teacher, can you donate it to S University for students to visit?

Post #36: Why are you all trying to take and eat? Hahahaha. FRY: I have to work at S University even in my next life? My life is so hard.

Post #37: By the way, what was the meaning of the snowman made of flowers at the wedding? Someone in the other thread said FRY’s old nickname was “Snowman.” Can any archaeology majors spill the tea?

Post #38: That’s a really old nickname. I heard it was from when FRY was in grad school. During fieldwork, everyone got tanned dark, but he was the only one who didn’t, staying all fair and clean. He was also the youngest, so his senior brothers and sisters jokingly called him that.

Post #39: FRY is so mature and has such a strong older-partner vibe with his wife, but when I think about him being the youngest in his class and the youngest teacher, there’s this strange sense of cuteness.

Post #40: Xiao Xi, I’m begging you, can you bring your family member in more vlogs in the future? If not, can you do a 24-hour livestream of your home? I’m really craving it. I’ve never shipped a real-life pairing this hard before.

Post #41: How can it be the same? This is a real couple!! (Loudly) But I noticed something. FRY seems quite different in private. At school, besides not being lenient with students, he’s a super nice person, great at teaching, good character, gentle personality. But how come when he’s with his wife, his mouth seems to belong to a different person?

Post #43: Maybe that’s his true self (my roommate is his student and says he occasionally shows his true self, despicably harsh).

Post #46: Just a couple flirting. His wife’s mouth is just as bad. I watched his wife’s previous videos. Other people name baby gorillas Marry or Lucy, but he, taking advantage of the fact that others and the gorilla don’t understand Chinese, names them “Mediterranean” (balding), “Figure-Eight Eyebrows,” and “Poop King”… and says it in a particularly gentle tone. The foreigner next to him even said he’s so sweet. I can’t stop laughing.

Post #47: At the beginning of last semester, his wife came to our school. It was late spring but still cold, and it had snowed a bit. FRY’s car was parked on the ground, in the parking lot behind our dorm. I was taking pictures of the snow and heard them talking. Xiao Xi seemed to have drawn something in the snow on the car’s hood and asked Teacher Fu to look. Teacher Fu said, “It’s ugly.” Then Xiao Xi didn’t get angry, but laughed and said, “Right? It’s a drawing of you.”

Post #48: Hahahaha, I can totally picture that.

Post #49: When these two kiss, it’s like fighting poison with poison, lol.

Post #50: As expected of a couple who starts arguing at the beginning of their wedding vlog. I love this kind of confrontational relationship. If they can’t do a livestream of them doing it, can they do a livestream of them arguing? I’ll save it for the Spring Festival Gala this year.

Post #51: Their arguments probably don’t affect their relationship. I saw Xiao Xi reply to a fan under the vlog video saying his husband is the “pleaser” type.

Post #53: Who? Who’s the pleaser type? Fu Rangyi is clearly the “conqueror” type personality!!

Post #55: Hahahaha, “conqueror” type.

Post #57: User above, why such a strong reaction? Are you a victim of Teacher Fu’s true self? Hahaha.

Post #58: Don’t laugh… I was just getting into it and wanted to share the CP thread with my friend to ship them together, but I accidentally sent it to FRY…

Post #59: OMG, did you retract it?

Post #60: I did, but he already saw it and replied… (shares screenshot).

Post #61: Damn, FRY actually didn’t pretend not to see it? I’ve sent him wrong messages before and didn’t retract, and he wouldn’t even acknowledge them.

Post #62: I can feel the teacher’s meanness even through the screen.

Post #63: Let me translate FRY’s reply: 1. Who allowed you to call him Princess Xixi? 2. Who allowed you to call him Princess Xixi? 3. Who allowed you to call him Princess Xixi?

Post #64: Hahahaha, is user #63 a mind reader?

Post #65: All you guys who called him Princess Xixi are going to get reported in a few days (moment of silence).

Post #66: Probably not. Even though he’s back, I feel like FRY will still be lovey-dovey with his wife during the latter part of his susceptibility period and won’t have time for us.

Post #67: User #53, here’s a tip. Reply to him with: “And so, Prince Fu and Princess Xixi lived happily ever after.” ()

Post #68: Do you guys really not care about user #53’s life? Hahaha, FRY will really call him to his office when he gets back.

Post #69: Prince Fu sounds like Professor Fu. Like a prince who can’t inherit the throne (is this something I can say?).

Post #70: He’s not a prince, he’s a doctor dog! (Teacher Fu, I respect you very much, please don’t report me, this is the only account I have left).

Post #71: Holy crap, stop talking, this is the thread I shared!!!

Post #72: …

Post #73: You didn’t… sooner…

Post #74 (OP): User #53, you’ve caused so much trouble! It took OP so much effort to make this post!!

Post #98: What were you guys talking about? Why is this thread so long but only a dozen floors are visible when I click in? The thread is about to collapse.

Post #99: Came late, missed the meal. Since it’s come to this, I’ll just post a 99 (for a long and happy relationship). ()

—Mini Theater: Fu Rangyi’s Dinner Time—

Xiao Zhu discovers Fu Rangyi playing on his phone for the Nth time.

He’s not happy: “What are you so busy with? The moment we landed, you’ve been glued to your phone, not letting go. Your fingers are about to spark a fire. Are you the prime minister, so busy with state affairs?”

Fu Rangyi sneers: “Me? I’m just a prince who can’t inherit the throne.”

Zhu Zhixi: Meow meow meow?
