"Master Su Liang's classification is very special. His level can be said to be the highest among Omegas. Judging from the current situation, his level may even have surpassed yours..." The medical officer licked his lips and explained dryly, "The high-level suppression plus the extremely high degree of compatibility, from the current point of view, it is very likely that the person who has developed pheromone dependence does not seem to be Master Su Liang because of this reason."
At this point, the medical officer's voice trailed off.
"It is you who has developed pheromone dependence, Master Snake."
The older Beta has worked in the Snake Cave for many years, and even Lu Taipan can be said to have grown up under his care.
In the past, he could always face this cold and unapproachable Lord of the Snake Cave with a normal heart, until today, when he felt a little difficult for the first time.
After hearing the medical officer's words, the indifferent man's face flashed with shock and stiffness for a moment, but he quickly suppressed the outward emotions again.
"I am skeptical about this result." Lu Taipan said word by word, his eyes extremely sharp, "I don't think I have developed a pheromone addiction to Xiaoliang. If I do, I will definitely have emotional cognitive confusion, but one thing I can be sure of is that from the beginning to the end, my feelings for him were natural-"
"Ah, please don't worry about that."
The medical officer said quickly.
"Master Snake, your mental strength is double S level. When you were suffering from pheromone disorder before, we had already tested your mental strength. It can be said that there is no hormone or mental method in this world that can cause you to have cognitive confusion or unnatural changes in emotions. Moreover, the pheromone dependence of Alpha on Omega is completely opposite to the traditional pheromone dependence that everyone knows."
The medical officer said as he pointed at the instrument in front of him. A floating screen popped up, and on the translucent screen were the only few cases of A developing pheromone dependence on O.
"The AO pheromone addiction we have been able to find is basically caused by low-level Alphas on high-level Omegas under special conditions. It is precisely because of this that we can basically be sure that it is Master Su Liang's special physique that has led to the current situation."
As they entered the professional field, the medical officer's nervousness gradually disappeared.
"You don't develop an unnatural emotional dependence on Master Su Liang. You just... ahem, change your pheromones."
After saying this, the medical officer glanced at Lu Taipan unconsciously.
"I don't know if Master Su Liang has mentioned this to you, but I checked the medical records for this period and before, and your pheromone composition is completely different from before. Before this, we always thought that it was pheromone disorder that caused this change, but combined with the latest test results, it is obvious that this is not pheromone disorder, but a change made by your body on its own initiative. You will constantly adjust the scent of pheromones according to Master Su Liang's instinctive preferences... In other words, you will try your best to seduce Master Su Liang with your body."
When I heard this. Lu Taipan narrowed his eyes.
"Every Alpha will do this when facing the Omega he likes."
He said this very calmly and professionally.
"Show your strengths and attract the other party's attention..."
The medical officer coughed.
"Ahem, of course. Indeed, every Alpha should show his best side when facing the person he likes. However, most people can only change their conversation and behavior, while pheromones are stable most of the time."
Unless, that person suffers from A's pheromone dependence on O.
After he finished speaking, Lu Taipan fell into a long silence.
The medical officer tried to hold back his expression, and he spoke as calmly as possible: "The good news is that this AO pheromone addiction is much milder than the ones we know, and it doesn't have the disgusting side effects of cognitive distortion. This is more like a courtship technique that evolved naturally under natural selection when the Alpha couldn't use other methods to keep a stronger partner."
Of course, most people would never imagine that an Alpha who is already at the double S level would one day suffer from this extremely special disease.
"Master Snake, from now on, you should only experience some minor emotional changes. For example, your jealousy will become more intense than before, your personality will become more sensitive and suspicious, and your need for the company of Omegas will also increase. Especially considering that your recent susceptible period just happens to overlap with this pheromone addiction, the next few days may be a little difficult for you. But I believe that Master Snake should be able to resist your impulses. After all, your situation was so bad before, but you still performed very perfectly."
"Master Su Liang needs your pheromones to grow, and your body needs Master Su Liang to stabilize your emotions. However, considering that you are a powerful Alpha who has surpassed Master Su Liang in terms of force, and Master Su Liang is a special Omega who has not yet fully developed... In the next contact between the two of you, I strongly suggest that you continue to wear the bite stopper and strengthen the strength of the restraint device. In other words, the two of you need to be together as much as possible, but you must never go to the last step."
"Before Young Master Su Liang matures, you cannot mark him, absolutely not!"
When the medical officer said the last sentence, he completely ignored the dignity of the Lord of the Snake Cave and spoke in a decisive and extremely harsh manner.
A tiny crack appeared in Lu Taipan's frozen expression.
"I'll be careful."
He said dryly.
"Considering that you have indeed developed pheromone dependence, based on medical regulations, I will directly inform Master Su Liang and ask him to be on high alert against you. Don't worry, if he is willing, I will also collect his pheromones as raw materials to make a soothing spray for you, which will make you feel much better when you can't stand it."
The medical officer said.
"Wait - I, I will tell him myself."
Lu Taipan took a deep breath, then spoke carefully with a hint of frustration.
Beta raised his head and looked at his snake master steadily. As a medical officer, he has always been full of respect and trust for his leader. However, for some reason, when the medical officer thought of the other party's Alpha identity and the various characteristics shown on the instruments, he inexplicably began to worry.
"Okay. I believe you will tell the other party everything clearly. But please remember that you can't be impulsive--"
The older medical officer had already worked in the Snake Cave for many years, and would occasionally unconsciously reveal to Lu Taipan the kind of nagging and worry that an elder would have for his nephew.
In the past, the Lord of the Snake Cave didn’t think there was anything wrong with this, but this time when he left the medical area, he felt the same embarrassment and subtle awkwardness as Su Liang for the first time.
After walking out of the metal door, Lu Taipan sighed dejectedly.
In the empty corridor, he suddenly stopped, raised his hand, and gently pressed his lips.
During this period of time, Lu Taipan's marking tooth has not been able to be completely retracted, and his dreams every night are filled with sweet, hot and wet scenes - this has led to a sharp increase in the frequency of using the bathroom in his bedroom.
She was extremely emotional and wanted to hug the boy and leave her mark on him.
Before, Lu Taipan always thought that it was just because of the susceptible period. At this moment, all the special changes in his body had clear answers.
It’s not just the susceptible period, but because…
“Pheromone dependent?”
Lu Taipan said to himself.
He still remembered the cases he had seen from the medical officer. In those cases, almost all Alphas felt ashamed and found it difficult to accept that they had become so dependent on Omega.
However, when Lu Taipan found out that he was the one who was dependent on pheromones, he discovered that his feelings were completely different from those of normal Alphas.
One could even say that he felt a hint of secret pleasure.
...It was as if I had suddenly gained official permission to be alone with that person.
Of course, this secret and subtle thought only flashed through the depths of Lu Taipan's mind.
With a hint of anticipation that even Lu Taipan himself was not aware of, the Lord of the Snake Cave turned on the communicator.
Unlike what the medical officer worried about, he had no intention of hiding this news from Su Liang. However, when he looked at the man's name on the communicator, he hesitated again.
I always feel that it would be better to say it in person... the benefits you can get will be greater?
"housekeeper."
He called out.
"I'm here. What can I do for you, Master?"
"Where is Xiaoliang now?"
Lu Taipan asked.
"Well..." The butler, who should have given an answer immediately, became a little hesitant. "My system has just detected that the medical officer has uploaded your physical data. As your artificial intelligence, I sincerely suggest that you take a rest first, and wait until you have digested the shock of this news before informing Master Su Liang of this matter. What do you think?"
As the housekeeper kept talking nonsense, Lu Taipan's eyes gradually became sharper.
"Set the coordinates of Su Liang's cabin for me right now."
Lu Taipan ordered coldly.
Deep inside the Snake Cave spacecraft, in a special medical room for controlled personnel equipped with monitoring facilities, Su Liang was standing next to the curved treatment cabin, staring at the man in the cabin.
Lu Zhizhao was completely wrapped in translucent medical gel, and his figure was almost impossible to see through the treatment cabin. Inside the mass of gel, there was only a blurry, pale shadow. If it weren't for the display screen on the cabin door revealing Lu Zhizhao's identity, Su Liang wouldn't even have recognized him.
The medical room should be very quiet, with only the soft humming of life-support equipment and treatment cabins. However, at this moment, the chattering of a baby-faced viper beside Su Liang broke the silence.
"I really don't understand." Xue Yinhuan muttered with a bored look on his face, "Why are you here to look at this unlucky guy? What's so good about him? He's lucky to be alive after doing something like this."
Xue Yinhuan sneered.
"Is his life in danger?"
Su Liang suddenly asked.
Xue Yinhuan was stunned, then thought about it.
"There is no danger to his life, but our boss was really ruthless at that time. Lu Zhizhao has comminuted fractures all over his body. Even if he is sent back to the Lu family's old house for biological bone replacement, it is estimated that it will be difficult to restore his previous physical condition. Of course, this kind of skin injury is nothing. When this thing attacked you before, the boss was really furious and used mental piercing directly when beating you. The young master's spiritual sea was already on the verge of collapse. After this, his mental power has completely collapsed. Even if he is sent back for mental repair, he will be at most a B-level. Tsk, I really want to know. What expression will the old guy Lu Zhengen have when he receives his rubbish son..."
Xue Yinhuan glanced at the human figure in the treatment cabin and curled his lips, with disdain that he could not suppress at all in his eyes.
"But I really don't know why the boss wants to spare his life. According to the law, his attack on you is equivalent to attacking the staff of the Snake Cave. We can kill him on the spot, not to mention that he is a high-level Alpha and he directly tried to forcibly mark the Omega that has not yet fully developed. In addition, according to the Alliance's Omega Rights Protection Law, this rapist must be shot twice at least—"
As he was speaking, Xue Yinhuan suddenly frowned. He turned his head to look at Su Liang, who was particularly taciturn, and his expression changed.
"Xiaoliang, what's that expression on your face? You'd better tell me it's my illusion. Why do I feel like you were relieved when you found out that this thing is still alive?"
"I……"
Hearing Xue Yinhuan's question, Su Liang came back to his senses, looking stunned.
He was about to explain when a cold voice interrupted them.
"Although he was not shot on the spot, I have issued a ban to Lu Zhengen as the head of the family. Although he will return to the Lu family, in fact, Lu Zhizhao has been completely expelled from the Lu family. From now on, he will no longer enjoy any privileges of the Lu family. At the same time, he will be imprisoned in a special area of the Lu family's main house and will not be allowed to leave for life."
The man with a cold breath came to Su Liang step by step.
He lowered his eyes and looked indifferently at the man in the treatment cabin, his expression extremely cold.
"Mr. Si!"
Su Liang opened his eyes slightly, looked at Lu Taipan who suddenly appeared and called softly.
"He is still alive, but from now on, he is no different from a dead person."
Lu Taipan didn't look at Su Liang, but just stared at Lu Zhizhao and said calmly.
"Wow, Boss?! When did you get here? But now that you've explained it to me, I feel much better. This is how disgusting things should be dealt with!"
Before Su Liang could respond, Xue Yinhuan had already opened her eyes wide, shining with admiration.
However, Lu Taipan did not express any pleasure at his subordinates' flattery.
Instead, he glanced at Xue Yinhuan and said calmly, "You still have a mission to complete."
"Me? Mission? No, I should be on vacation today—"
Halfway through her words, Xue Yinhuan's voice suddenly stopped because of this familiar scene.
Viper tremblingly opened his task list, looked at the task list that was silently filled up, and held his breath in pain.
"Boss, if I leave now, can the task list here be reduced a little?"
Xue Yinhuan looked at Lu Taipan and said pitifully.
Lu Taipan didn't answer, but just looked at him coldly.
But the next second, Xue Yinhuan seemed to have realized something from the silent gaze, and quickly left the treatment room.
Before leaving, he did not forget to give Su Liang a look.
That was a look that said "It's all up to you".
Well, even the most slow-witted Xue Yinhuan could feel that something was wrong with Lu Taipan at the moment, and Su Liang could naturally sense that Lu Taipan was in a bad mood.
"Actually, I just came to make sure he is still alive, that's all." Su Liang didn't know why he felt a little flustered again, he explained in a low voice.
"I know."
Lu Taipan said.
If you just look at his expression, he seems to be normal. After all, the Lord of the Snake Cave has always had a cold and frosty image when he appears outside.
"But the reason I spared his life was not because I am kind and tolerant," the Lord of the Snake Cave narrated without any emotional ups and downs. "I did this purely because I felt that it would be more painful for Lu Zhizhao to live than to die."
Before Su Liang spoke, Lu Taipan suddenly smiled faintly.
"Will you feel pity for him because of this?
He asked.
Su Liang did not answer immediately.
The young man carefully looked at the current snake owner and spoke after a moment.
"I really don't want him to die."
Su Liang looked at Lu Taipan with a slightly darkened look in his eyes, sighed, and then added.
"But I don't want him to die, not because I really have any special feelings for him. In fact, when I stand here, even I am surprised that I don't feel anything at all. Maybe it's not you who is indifferent, but me..."
Su Liang's voice was very crisp and frank.
Although he decisively broke up with Lu Zhizhao in this life, he and the other party had a long past in his previous life.
But now looking at him, Su Liang found that his heart was actually completely calm.
Perhaps it was because Lu Zhizhao's attack on him during their last meeting finally shattered the last bit of affection he had for her.
No matter what, the person Su Liang admired could not be a rapist who tried to forcibly mark others.
"I don't want him to die in your hands, because he is still your nephew in name. If he dies, the acting head of the family——"
"You can call Lu Zhengen by his first name."
"Well, Lu Zhengen will definitely take this opportunity to attack you. The situation between the Snake Cave and the Lu family is already very delicate. And most importantly, I don't want you to be caught in the whirlpool of public opinion again because of this kind of thing."
As Su Liang whispered, the darkness in Lu Taipan's eyes gradually dissipated.
Hearing the boy's worry at this moment, he sneered contemptuously.
"That kind of thing is nothing to worry about."
"I know, but I'll feel bad."
Lu Taipan's breathing stagnated.
"…There's nothing to be sad about."
After a brief pause, the man responded in a tense and muffled voice.
Su Liang stared at the tall, cold, and powerful Alpha in front of him without blinking, gently raised his hand and hooked the other's little finger.
"I... I didn't know the true situation of the Snake Cave before, nor did I know what kind of person you were. When I was still in the Lu family, no, in fact, even at Xingchuan University, when people mentioned you and the Snake Cave in private, the words they used were very bad. Those rumors and strange legends described you as a devil, a madman, a murderous executioner, or a butcher."
It was a very gentle tone, but the words that came out from the boy's lips were tangled with regret and sadness.
"I know you don't care about anyone's gossip, and those people will never really hurt you. But, Mr. Mi, you know, no one wants to hear that they...the person they like, is called a devil or a lunatic."
The moment the words fell, Su Liang felt his hand being tightly grasped by the man.
But it was at least several seconds later that Lu Taipan's voice sounded in Su Liang's ears.
"So, you did it for me."
The voice was so tense that it sounded a little stiff.
"Yes, you are the only one I care about."
Su Liang immediately spoke frankly.
Lu Taipan didn't say anything.
Su Liang was a little nervous, and he looked at Lu Taipan carefully.
Su Liang's intuition told him that Lu Taipan was quite satisfied at the moment, but there was no expression on the man's handsome face, as if... he was still angry?
Su Liang had never encountered such a situation before, so he didn't care about anything else and quickly leaned towards Lu Taipan.
Blushing, the boy gently scratched the Alpha's palm with his fingertips.
"Mr. Si, don't be angry..."
The tone is soft and a little deliberate, even stiff.
Even her acting coquettishly is clumsy.
But Lu Taipan's body suddenly tensed up because of this.
——You should have followed the medical officer’s instructions and worn a bite control device before meeting the other party.
A rare feeling of regret flashed through my mind.
Once she realized that she was suffering from pheromone addiction, the sweet fragrance coming from deep inside Su Liang's body seemed to become more alluring and more irresistible.
The Lord of the Snake Cave deliberately slowed down his breathing and dared not move at all.
But Lu Taipan's painstaking restraint suddenly took on a different meaning in Su Liang's eyes.
The clumsy and coquettish attitude that she had been trying to maintain disappeared in an instant, and Su Liang awkwardly tried to pull her hand back from Lu Taipan's palm.
"I know you are so angry because Lu Zhizhao offended me, but I still came to see how he was doing. This is really annoying. I will pay attention next time-"
Seeing Su Liang's face gradually dim, Lu Taipan was shocked and blurted out:
"I'm not angry."
He emphasized.
"Something was wrong with my body."
The Lord of the Snake Cave lowered his eyes to hide the expression in his eyes and lowered his voice.
"The medical officer should talk to you about this later. Just know that I need you. More than ever."
"What?"
Su Liang looked at Lu Taipan in shock.
"I might be a bit of a nuisance later on."
Lu Taipan lowered his head and buried it in Su Liang's neck. He took a deep breath of Su Liang's scent.
"But please don't hate me. Xiaoliang, without you I might go completely crazy and completely collapse."
Lu Taipan's voice was hoarse.
"I'm going to be terrible."
…
…
…
Neither of the two people in the embrace noticed that in the treatment cabin next to them, Lu Zhizhao, who should have been forced into a deep coma due to the drug, had his eyeballs tremble under his eyelids.
