Chapter 84
Summer is here.
Shi Yu has lived a happy and comfortable life in the past few months. Even though she has some vague worries in her heart, she gradually forgets them due to the careful care of the officers and friends around her.
The closer it got to her birthday, the calmer she felt.
Around June 15th, Shi Yu was informed by Rona that he would have to return to the nursing home for a physical examination in a week.
She agreed and then ran to tell Lei Yin about it. Upon hearing this, the officer temporarily put down the documents in his hand and looked at her calmly with his ice-blue eyes.
"I already know," he said. "I will accompany you there. The general will also keep an eye on the situation if he has time. Don't be afraid."
Shi Yu wasn't that frightened to begin with. After all, it was just a physical exam. She nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir! I'm fine."
But even though he was mentally prepared, Shi Yu still felt a sense of unreality on the eve of the physical examination.
She had already learned about this information, and she also knew what the physical examination for an Omega before reaching adulthood meant. After this physical examination, her physical data would be entered into the matching database, and she would then be arranged to meet the Alpha who was most compatible with her...a blind date and a trial marriage.
Rona had been sending her frequent emails these past few days, vaguely asking about her views on Alphas and compatibility requirements. Shigure hesitated for a long time before replying that she didn't want to consider these matters for the time being... Rona took a moment to express his understanding, and after that, he really didn't send these questions again.
This seemed to give Shi Yu some sense of security. On the day of the physical examination, she was not as nervous as she had imagined. She got into the car and returned to the nursing home very easily and naturally, still looking forward to seeing Ed after the physical examination.
Before entering the gate of the nursing home, Shi Yu turned around and took a last look at Lei Yin in the car, then followed Dr. Lin Yin, whom he had not seen for a long time, into the nursing home and came to the physical examination room.
The process this time was no different from every physical examination Shi Yu had done before, except that there was an additional test called glandular data at the end. When the instrument was placed on the back of his neck, Shi Yu shivered with cold, but fortunately it was over quickly.
"Did you see any strangers during this physical examination?"
When he went to see Ed, the boy seemed particularly concerned about this matter. When he heard the other party's question, Shi Yu was confused: "A stranger?"
"No." After recalling it, Shi Yu answered with certainty, "It's okay, don't worry about my Ed."
With Rain and the general around, Shi Yu wasn't even as worried about her situation as Ed was. She chatted with Ed for a while, then left the nursing home and returned home with Rain.
In the following days, her life seemed unaffected by the medical examination. She continued attending classes and chatting with friends as usual. Shigure was making excellent progress in her mechanical theory class, so she proudly showed her results to Ed. He then asked, "Aren't you just not that interested in math?"
——After suffering a critical blow, Shigure quietly hid his model and decided not to share it with Ed anymore.
The mechanics teacher's requirements for her were not that high, but when Shi Yu did well, she would not hesitate to praise Shi Yu. Shi Yu did not feel boring at all like she did in etiquette and literature classes. The more models she made, the happier she was, and the happier she was, the better she did. It was a perfect virtuous circle!
When Rona called again, Shi Yu had just finished her meal and was lying on the bed reviewing her homework. She glanced at the name displayed on the terminal, swung her legs nonchalantly, and answered the call.
"Good evening, Mr. Rona!"
"Good evening, Shigure." Rona smiled at the girl's energetic voice. "I called because the nursing home sent me an email, letting me know that there might be some discrepancies in your and Officer Rain's last physical examination data."
He continued, "If you have time tomorrow, can you come for another physical examination?"
Do it again?
Shi Yu blinked, suddenly feeling a little uneasy, and couldn't help asking, "Um...how could it go wrong?"
"This is a problem with the nursing home. Sorry, I'm not very clear about it."
"...I understand." Shi Yu was too embarrassed to force Rona, so he had to respond, "I'll go talk to Mr. Rain. I'll be there tomorrow."
Rain learned earlier than her that she needed to undergo a second physical examination. After a brief conversation with the general, the next day, the officer completed the accompanying procedures and accompanied her into the physical examination room in the nursing home.
Before the physical examination, Shi Yu looked back as if he had sensed something, and vaguely saw several men in suits standing outside the glass of the physical examination room.
She couldn't tell if they were Beta or Alpha, but their temperament didn't seem like that of an Omega. Furthermore, she noticed that the leader had silver hair...
Silver hair that's a bit like Ed's...
Shi Yu finished the physical examination anxiously. When she came out, she no longer saw the people standing outside the glass.
Shi Yu was very concerned about this matter. She felt inexplicably nervous and left the nursing home without staying for too long. In the evening, she couldn't even eat dinner. The first thing she did when she returned to her room was to talk to Ed.
However, before he could dial the number, Rona's name suddenly popped up on the terminal.
Shi Yu didn't want to answer the call.
It wasn't until the other party called a second time that Shi Yu realized there was no escape. He closed his eyes and hesitantly picked up the phone.
"Good evening," Shi Yu pursed her lips and asked softly, "What can I do for you, Mr. Rona?"
…
"She doesn't need a third medical exam."
Lei Yin sat at his desk, hands clasped together, his blue eyes fixed on the screen projected by the terminal. He said without question, "Shi Yu has already cooperated with the physical examination twice. If there is another mistake, it will be the other party's fault. I don't think we are obligated to perform this examination again."
"But Officer Rain, Shigure has already agreed..."
“Is it in accordance with procedures to bypass the guardian and first ask the adoptee’s opinion?”
"..." Rona sighed and dropped the subject. "I'll try to explain the situation to the hospital. The general may contact you later."
Rein nodded and said no more. After the call ended, the officer stood up, walked to the door, and grasped the door handle with his hands wearing neat gloves.
Before opening the door, as if sensing something, he deliberately slowed down his movements. The black-haired girl, crouching in front of his study with a pillow in her arms, heard the door open and quickly stood up like a frightened cat. "Mr. Rain..."
Shi Yu wanted to ask about Rona's situation, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say anything. Lei Yin lowered his eyes to look at her pale face, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Nothing, go back and rest, don't worry."
"If the general speaks to you later, remember to tell me."
Shi Yu nodded and agreed worriedly.
Was this going to bother the general...why? Although Shi Yu would never refuse a call from the general, and felt that the general would most likely respect her wishes if she explained it to him, she still felt uneasy.
The next day, the day after, time gradually pushed forward to June 25th, only a week left until Shi Yu's birthday. Finally, on the evening of the 25th, Shi Yu received a call from the general.
To her surprise, the general did not mention the physical examination.
After asking about Shi Yu's health, the general gently asked if she had a birthday coming up soon and if she wanted a gift. Shi Yu was stunned for a moment and replied stiffly, "Whatever you like."
"You don't have to be so polite, Shigure." Heinrich smiled helplessly. "You can always bring up your ideas. Or do you need to think about it?"
"Hmm...let me think about it then."
Before Shi Yu hung up the phone, he groggily said, "Thank you, General."
Is that all? Doesn't she need a checkup anymore? Shi Yu was confused.
But it would be great if the problem could be solved like this. After the general made the call, Rona never mentioned asking her to have a physical examination again, and even their usual email exchanges suddenly decreased a lot.
Shi Yu was a little concerned, but she didn't want to cause trouble to the other party again, so she suppressed the desire to ask. Later, when she saw a missed call from Rona on her terminal, she thought about it and decided not to call back.
On the night three days before his birthday, Shi Yu was sitting in the living room watching the news. Rein had suddenly become very busy recently and often came home around midnight. When Shi Yu woke up the next day, he had already left for the military academy, and they hardly spoke to each other.
Even though the other party had sent an email saying that she didn't need to wait for him, Shi Yu still consciously had her meal later. If Lei Yin came back early, she could still talk to him while eating!
In fact, Shi Yu didn't pay much attention to the news, but with the idea of killing time, she still stared at the content on the screen in a daze... until a familiar face that couldn't be more familiar suddenly came into her sight.
Is it the General...?!
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment. The general on the screen, with gray hair and gray eyes, dressed in military uniform, sat at a long table with a dignified and cold look, slowly and solemnly answering questions from the audience. Shi Yu initially thought the general had held an important meeting, but the news headline below shattered her imagination.
—General Heinrich, suspected of secretly colluding with Councillor Leon Scheffes, secured several members of his faction from the military…
Huh, huh?
Shi Yu stared blankly at the screen, her mind in a mess. She didn't understand why the general was involved in such a thing. In her heart, the general had always been...
Mr. Rein, Rona...
The abnormalities connected into a line, and the painful cold feeling pierced into the nerves like a needle. Shi Yu suddenly opened her moist eyes, and at the same time, her terminal suddenly rang.
She was startled and her heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her chest. After slowing down again and again, Shi Yu slowly reached out and carefully looked at the name that popped up on the terminal.
It's Rona.
Shi Yu took a deep breath, his heart finally at ease, and without hesitation, he pressed the accept button. When the call came through, the girl's voice was still hoarse and soft from panic, as if she would burst into tears any second. She greeted softly, "Good evening... Long time no see, Mr. Rona."
The other party was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle from his throat.
Just like the impression he had always given people, he was always gentle, modest and flawless. Even when he was talking to a girl who might have a bad impression of her under the watchful eyes of his father and family members, and he was unable to control any negative reactions from the other party, Noah Sturga easily maintained the margin of tolerance and easygoing.
With a gentle smile, he responded, "Good evening, Shigure."
"It's been a while since we last met," said the gentle voice that had appeared in Shigure's nightmares countless times. "But I'm not Rona. I'm very sorry to interrupt you at this time."
...?
Shi Yu was stunned.
The author has something to say:
