You Want to Mark Me? That’ll Cost Extra

[Narcissistic Alpha & Actorly Beta]

Lin Xuchuan was a model beta assistant who’d spent three years catering to the top alpha Zhai Ling in his previous life.

Always at his beck and call, ready to kneel whenever ordered.

His younger brother was dying in the ICU, but he was still ironing Zhai Ling’s suit. In the end, he too was sent flying by a car.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back three years in the past, facing that same devil-may-care face.

Lin Xuchuan had figured it out: make money, save up five million for his brother’s surgery, then get out.

So he kept playing the devoted puppy.

Whatever Zhai Ling asked him to do, he did without complaint.

A professional smile, a perfect attitude.

But behind every “Of course, young master,” he was cursing, “Go to hell!”

And on the side…

A cuff link Zhai Ling dropped? He picked it up and listed it on Xianyu for ten thousand.

Gifts from omegas? He bundled them up and sold them for another tidy sum.

Inside information about the Zhai family business? He sold it on for fifty thousand a tip.

Lin Xuchuan: Betas can’t smell pheromones anyway. No matter how charming Zhai Ling is, he’s just an ordinary boss to me.

But Zhai Ling seemed to be acting a little strange.

He started asking, “Does it hurt?”

He started leaning in to sniff him. “Did you change your shampoo?”

When he got drunk, he grabbed him and said, “You… haven’t been looking at me much today.”

Lin Xuchuan was getting annoyed:

Boss, can you just care about my work and leave my personal life alone?

Later, during his rut, Zhai Ling cornered Lin Xuchuan and said in a suggestive voice,

“Lin Xuchuan, I want to mark you.”

Lin Xuchuan rolled his eyes. “Mark me? That’ll cost extra!”
