Chapter 38
Shi Yu felt a little dizzy from the sour smell of lemon.
The body of an Omega in the passionate period is very hot. Shi Yu's hands were pressed stiffly on Ed, and she didn't know whether to retract them or not... She shrank her body awkwardly, and her palms were wet with sweat.
Ed's forearm was wrapped around Shiyu's shoulders. Shiyu couldn't move. She was shaking all the time, and her slightly rapid breathing was mixed with the wetness of sweat. She felt with fear that the boy used the tip of his teeth to slightly pick up the sensitive and soft skin on the back of her neck. The warm and sticky touch scared Shiyu so much that her hair stood on end. She looked like a cat with its neck pinched.
Subconsciously, Ed seemed to think that he should do this, but he had lost some instinctive guidance from the other gender, and his exploration of Omega only stopped there.
But Shi Yu didn't know this.
She learned some common sense about sex in this world from the doctor, and although she tried hard to digest and accept it, Shigure's mindset didn't change in a short period of time. Regardless of whether the other party was an "Omega" or not, close physical contact with a boy still made her feel very repulsive.
The strong smell of lemon made Shi Yu dizzy and confused. She was really uncomfortable. She whispered "Ed" but was not heard by the other party. She wanted to try to push the boy's shoulder, but when she thought of Ed's promise just now, Shi Yu stopped in a trance, thinking that maybe she could be patient for a while... ?
Ed's eyes were unfocused, his lips were a brilliant color, and the milky white skin on his neck looked as if it was about to melt under his licking. Shi Yu let out a soft "whine," panicking as she tried to stop the trembling. However, pinching her palms was useless; her body's reaction was disappointing.
It was not until Shi Yu gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and endured for a long time that Ed's movements seemed to slow down a little.
The power of the boy's arms restraining her gradually dissipated. Shi Yu keenly noticed this and tentatively whispered, "Ed?"
Ed half-opened his pale eyes, beads of sweat dripping from his delicate, moist brows. The boy responded hoarsely, "...Yeah."
Perhaps because he had just overexerted himself, his consciousness faded and he fell asleep again.
Seeing this, Shi Yu silently moved his knees away from the other person, then got down from the ground as if in a trance and came to the experimental table.
The wet touch on the back of her neck slowly reached her nerves, and Shi Yu shuddered. Her entire face instantly felt hot. She unconsciously touched the skin on the back of her neck...
So, before giving Ed water and food with great companionship, Shi Yu had to go to the bathroom first.
The entire dormitory was filled with the scent of lemon from Ed. Shi Yu dazedly washed her neck in the bathroom, the cool water clearing her mind a little. Shi Yu turned off the faucet, but at this moment, she sniffed and discovered that in addition to the lemon scent on her body, she also had a hint of strawberry.
...Shi Yu felt something was wrong. Normally, the strawberry scent on her body was very faint, and she couldn't usually smell it.
The skin that was licked and bitten felt sore and swollen. Shi Yu came back to her senses from her thoughts and took a deep breath. Knowing that she still had some tasks to do, she reluctantly returned to Ed's bedroom.
The girl's cheeks flushed. She picked up the fish porridge she brought for Ed at the laboratory table, then squatted beside Ed's bed to feed him.
The silver-haired and gray-eyed boy no longer looked completely unconscious like he had in the past few days. He opened his lips in accordance with the tilt of the spoon, and his delicate Adam's apple rolled slightly as he swallowed.
During the two days Ed had been unconscious, he had been sweating profusely, and his shirt, with several buttons ripped, had long been soaked. Shi Yu was worried that he would become dehydrated, so after feeding him with trembling hands, she went to get some water for Ed.
After temporarily solving Ed's problem, Shi Yu took his lunch and quickly left the neighbor's room. Even when he sat back on his bed, he could still smell the strong, sour smell of lemon.
She patted her cheeks, opened her tablet dazedly, and glanced at the message from Dr. Lin Yin.
The officer changed the time for visiting her to 2:30 in the afternoon. It was only twelve o'clock now, and Shi Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Two and a half hours was enough for the smell on her body to almost disappear.
As the time for her meeting with the officer approached, Shi Yu cleaned the back of her neck again. The sticky feeling lingered, and Shi Yu could only temporarily relieve the discomfort with cold water. She then packed her things and headed downstairs to the dormitory. After waiting for about ten minutes, Shi Yu spotted two familiar doctors.
The doctors drove Shi Yu to the ward in the nursing home in a hovercraft, and Lin Yin followed him out. She adjusted the terminal on her wrist and explained as she led Shi Yu to the isolated meeting room, "The General needs to go on an official business trip this afternoon and will be back a little later. I'll record your meeting with Officer Lei Yin for now and send it to the General later."
Shigure: “…Yeah, okay.”
The general is usually very busy...but he still takes time to care about her. Shi Yu feels very guilty towards the general.
She followed Dr. Lin Yin into the familiar meeting room from that morning. Thick glass divided the room in half, blocking out all smells. As Shi Yu entered the room, the light-blond officer across from her, dressed in a white uniform and writing official documents, glanced at her. Shi Yu was startled, inexplicably noticing the pair of white gloves beside him.
Beta doctor Lin Yin stopped and spoke first, "Hello, Officer Rein."
The young man sitting at the head of the table put down his pen. The handwriting on the paper was as sharp and neat as his own. He stood up, his posture straight and slender. The officer nodded in greeting to Lin Yin: "Hello, Doctor, Shi Yu."
Lei Yin's attitude was one of distant courtesy. He picked up the gloves on the table and put them on neatly as usual. Shi Yu watched his movements and suddenly his heart skipped a beat. A phantom-like pain came from the back of his neck.
Because of this, Shigure hesitated and didn't have time to greet Officer Raine.
Doctor Lin Yin stepped back behind Shi Yu and raised her hand, showing Lei Yin the terminal on her wrist. "This is the general's order," she instructed the officer. "I will record the entire meeting. Officer Lei Yin, please be mindful of your words and actions. The full recording will be sent to the general shortly."
Rein's expression showed no surprise. His sharp, ice-blue eyes were like those of an excellent and calm hunter. He lowered his gaze towards Shi Yu and replied, "Understood."
Facing Officer Rain's gaze, Shi Yu couldn't help but feel awkward and at a loss. She didn't know what to say...
The atmosphere fell into a brief silence. Rein frowned and considered his words. He had no experience with Omegas. Since he retired from the front-line army until now, several hastily arranged blind dates had been shelved due to his busy schedule.
The officer thought for a moment, then calmly asked, "How's your health lately?"
"I'm sorry for the hurt that training camp caused you." The officer's tone was a little cold and hard, and it was obvious that he was not used to speaking like that.
"At the end of the training camp, I had to inject a powerful inhibitor into your glands. This may have some impact on the Omega's health. If you feel unwell, please seek medical treatment as soon as possible. I will cover all medical expenses."
Lin Yin, who was standing next to him, pushed up her glasses and reminded Lei Yin, "Shi Yu has recovered."
The officer with light blonde hair paused for a moment when he spoke. Shi Yu recalled that day from his words. The pain of the needle piercing her skin and the cold, distinct smell of fir flooded her mind. Fear rose in her heart... But remembering that all her reactions might be seen by the general, Shi Yu clenched her trembling fingers and suppressed all her emotions.
She didn't want the general to worry about her anymore.
The officer was tall and straight, and he had to lower his head to catch the Omega's eye. The black-haired girl, perhaps trying to avoid the Alpha's attention, looked away as she answered the officer in a voice barely louder than a cat's: "Yes... I'm in good health now. Thank you for your concern."
Rein frowned slightly. His alertness as a soldier allowed him to immediately detect the hint conveyed by the doctor opposite him with gestures - the fragile and sensitive Omega had fallen into a state of tension, which meant that the officer had to find a way to change the subject and divert the Omega's attention.
Even with the general's instructions, the procedures for visiting Omegas at the nursing home were still very strict for Rayne, an Alpha. After passing all the physical examinations yesterday afternoon, Rayne had to quickly master some tricks to calm the Omegas when meeting them, and Lin Yin was the one who trained him.
This situation might happen several times in the next two weeks. Rein looked away and said unkindly, "This is my responsibility."
After saying this, he turned around and stepped out of his military boots. Shi Yu was confused for a moment and looked up at the officer's back.
Lei Yin walked to the table in the meeting room, picked up the pile of documents that Shi Yu had just seen, and then stopped in front of Shi Yu again with steady steps, carrying the documents.
"Doctor," the officer asked, tapping his slender knuckles against the thick glass, "Will you grant me temporary access?"
Huh? Open permissions? What permissions...?
Shi Yu's attention was immediately drawn to him. Lin Yin noticed Shi Yu's expression, sighed slightly in relief, and agreed, "Okay, that's a reasonable request."
The guardhouse would, of course, inspect all the belongings of the Alpha officer upon entering the interview room. Lin Yin knew what Lei Yin was holding; this diversion was indeed a clever one. Shi Yu was still confused when the cold, handsome officer said, "Please give it to Shi Yu. This is only part of my apology. I will continue to make amends to her in other ways."
Shi Yu watched curiously as the doctor approached the window, activated the projection on his wrist terminal, and then traced a neat rectangle on the glass with his finger. The circled piece of glass suddenly became ethereal. The officer, with a calm expression, passed a stack of documents through the small window. Lin Yin took it and handed it to the bewildered Shi Yu.
The rectangular piece of glass flickered illusively twice before quickly returning to its original state. However, the overflowing strawberry scent had lost its tight protection in that instant and inadvertently leaked to the other side.
Shi Yu didn't notice that the officer took two steps back with an unusual frown on his face. She flipped through the thick documents in her hand, and her expression became more and more confused.
This doesn't seem to be a document...? Seeing the words "error" and "make up" appearing repeatedly in it, Shi Yu had an uncertain thought in her mind, but she didn't dare to say it.
Lin Yin, who was standing by, cleared up her confusion at the right moment: "This is Officer Lei Yin's letter of apology."
Sensing this was an opportunity to explain, she added, "From today on, Officer Rein will need to write a 6,000-word self-criticism every day and hand it to you. This will last for two weeks. If you find Officer Rein being careless or dishonest, the general says you can report it to him at any time."
...?
Shi Yu was stunned.
