Chapter 74 Chapter 74 What are you doing?
Another girl got off the plane with a medicine box hanging by her side.
Pei Shuyu took a look and saw their Sefan logo on the medicine box.
The girl landed nimbly next to Qiao Songyan and the others.
No one expected someone to resist at this moment. A bodyguard suddenly released an alpha's aggressive pheromone. He was probably making a desperate move, intending to take a hostage.
Pei Shuyu quickly released his own pheromones to resist, "Be careful!"
The distance is too far, I will definitely not be able to catch up.
The bodyguard secretly rejoiced, thinking he was going to succeed.
The girl, unfazed, turned around at the sound. She then smashed the first aid kit against him, shouting, "That won't work on me! I'm a beta!"
Bodyguard: Huh?
Pei Shuyu: ...
It's great that I'm a beta who's not affected by pheromones at all.
The alliance special forces brought by Ke Bai acted quickly and quickly disarmed and subdued Qiao Songyan and his men.
This bodyguard enjoyed a unique benefit and was beaten badly.
The chaos on the deck gradually subsided, leaving only the roar of helicopter rotors and the sound of the sea breeze.
Ke Bai then walked up to Pei Shuyu, a slightly arrogant expression on his face, and extended his hand towards him: "How is it, a surprise? At the critical moment, I have to save you."
Pei Shuyu, using his strength, stood up from the side of the boat he was leaning against. His steps were still a little unsteady due to exhaustion and previous nervousness. He released his hand, his tone a little tired but still calm. "It's quite a surprise. Did Xiao Qingyang ask you to come?"
"Nonsense! Of course you Saifan people asked me to come here!" Ke Bai snorted, shoving his hands back into his pockets. He glanced at the unconscious Lu Hean and the frightened Qiao Zhishi beside him. "Do you think I'd be happy to go out on the high seas in the middle of the night for a ride?"
The two people who often followed Ke Bai sighed when they heard this. They looked at each other and decided not to expose the boss.
In fact, the situation was far more coincidental than Pei Shuyu had imagined.
After receiving Pei Shuyu's emergency signal in Saifan, Xiao Qingyang was extremely anxious. He immediately requested support from his superiors and quickly assembled his team to prepare for departure. As he rushed out the door, he ran into Ke Bai, who was looking for Pei Shuyu.
Seeing him in a hurry, Ke Bai asked casually, "Where's Pei Shuyu? You? Where are you going?"
Xiao Qingyang was in a hurry at the time and described the critical situation on the cruise ship in a few words.
When Ke Bai heard this, his face changed instantly. Without saying a word, he directly used the special authority of his alliance investigation team, bypassed the chain of command to call the helicopter and elite special forces from the nearest base, and almost forced the pilot to rush over as fast as possible.
This is how I arrived at the last moment.
They both sighed and went back to write another self-criticism.
Ke Bai didn't explain any further. His eyes fell on the side of Pei Shuyu's neck. Although it was mostly covered by the collar, he could vaguely see some unnatural red marks and the outline of teeth marks.
His eyes moved slightly, and he glanced at Lu Hean, who was obviously in a bad state. He seemed to understand something, but in the end he didn't ask anything. He just tutted and said, "It seems that I came at the right time."
He turned to the beta medical officer he brought with him: "Li Shu, right? Check them out first, especially that one." He pointed at Lu Hean, "It looks like he's almost dying."
Li Shu immediately stepped forward, and Pei Shuyu also made way and watched her perform a preliminary examination on Lu Hean.
"It's nothing serious, he just overused pheromones and overdrew. But he seems to be in... a susceptible period, right? Where's his omega?"
Ke Bai stood aside with his arms folded and glanced at Pei Shuyu: "Do you want to go?"
Before Pei Shuyu could speak, Li Shu spoke first: "Huh? Isn't Captain Pei an alpha?"
"You've never seen an AA relationship?" Ke Bai said, "But they broke up a long time ago. Now they should be considered... a lingering connection between ex-boyfriends?"
Pei Shuyu: ...
Li Shu was stunned, glanced at Pei Shuyu twice, said "Oh" blankly, and turned to check Qiao Zhishi.
She shut up and said she shouldn't have asked.
"I'm fine. Can you go see my brother? There's something wrong with his hand." Qiao Zhishi was always worried about him.
Li Shu nodded, turned around and left with the medicine box, looking as if he couldn't wait to leave.
The other staff members in the laboratory were also brought up one after another. After a headcount, they were all handcuffed.
Ke Bai also left some people to guard them back to the alliance.
Pei Shuyu, Qiao Songyan and others were taken to the helicopter. The cruise ship was still sailing as usual. The passengers who were immersed in the dance party had no idea what was happening outside.
The rescue helicopter flashed its signal lights in the night sky, indicating that this terrifying night on the cruise ship was finally coming to an end.
On the helicopter, Pei Shuyu found a place to sit randomly, let Lu Hean lean on him, and Qiao Zhishi also sat next to him.
The two of them stood on the left and right, close to Pei Shuyu.
The main thing is that opposite Qiao Zhishi are Qiao Songyan and Ke Bai.
He was a little scared and didn't dare to sit opposite him. Sitting next to Pei Shuyu made him feel a little safer.
Qiao Songyan looked at his brother's cowardly expression, and then thought about how his own meticulous planning had failed miserably. He finally found an outlet for his resentment. He stared at Qiao Zhishi and couldn't help but accuse her with a resentful voice: "Qiao Zhishi, are you satisfied with what I've become now? If you hadn't been as stupid as a pig and hadn't done bad things so many times, I wouldn't have ended up like this! If I were an alpha, with all the natural advantages, how could I have ended up like this today!"
Qiao Zhishi, suddenly called out, flinched, his hands on his knees, wiping the sweat off his face. He lowered his head even lower, his lips trembling, but he didn't dare to refute a single word.
Pei Shuyu closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, too lazy to get involved in the brothers' mess.
But Ke Bai couldn't stand it any longer. He was checking the seat belt. Upon hearing this, he turned sideways and without saying a word, slapped Qiao Songyan on the back of the head!
It didn't take much effort.
There was a crisp "pop" sound, which was particularly clear in the cabin.
Qiao Songyan's head was hit so hard that it suddenly fell forward. His vision went black, his ears were buzzing, and he felt like his skull was about to crack. He turned his head in disbelief and glared at the person who had done it.
What caught my eye was Ke Bai's face, which was so beautiful that it was almost excessive. He was indeed an omega, but there was no tenderness in his eyes, only cold sarcasm and undisguised force and oppression.
"Calm down!" Ke Bai sneered. "You're blaming your gender for your own shortcomings? I'm an omega too. Do you think I'm weak?"
Qiao Songyan was so angry that his face turned pale and he gritted his teeth, "Oh! You are just a high-ranking person! It's easy for you to talk without any pain in your waist!"
His voice rose with excitement, almost a roar.
Lu Hean, who was leaning on Pei Shuyu's shoulder, frowned uncomfortably and moved his head.
Pei Shuyu finally opened his eyes, his tone filled with impatience: "Alright. Is your ending going to change just because you say a few more words?"
"How could an alpha like you understand?" Qiao Songyan was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, completely out of control. He had already begun to blame everything and everything, and began to indiscriminately attack everyone on the plane.
"If you were also an omega! If you were at the same level as me! You would understand the suffocating feeling of being controlled by fate! You simply…"
His excited accusation came to an abrupt end.
Because Ke Bai had picked up a piece of gray cloth from the side, which he didn't know what it was used for. With lightning speed, he pinched Qiao Songyan's chin accurately, forced him to open his mouth with force, and then rolled up the cloth and stuffed it into his mouth roughly.
"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!" Qiao Songyan struggled violently, his eyeballs bulging, and he felt nauseous from the faint smell of oil and dust on the fabric.
Ke Bai did not stop moving, and took out a simple mouthpiece to prevent vomiting from somewhere, and put it on Qiao Songyan's face neatly, fixing the cloth firmly in his mouth.
After finishing all this, Ke Bai clapped his hands, as if he had accomplished a trivial task, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's finally quiet now."
The cabin was dead silent, with only Qiao Songyan's painful sobs and the roar of the helicopter engine.
There is a feeling that the world is finally at peace.
A young special forces member nearby couldn't help but whisper a reminder, with an indescribable expression on his face: "Captain Ke, Captain Ke...that...looks like a rag used to wipe oil stains off the fuselage..."
Ke Bai raised his eyebrows and shrugged nonchalantly: "Oh, that's perfect, let him sober up."
"What if... I eat it..."
"I don't think Master Qiao Songyan is stupid enough to eat motor oil."
"All right……"
Qiao Zhishi stared at everything that was happening in front of him in amazement. He was so scared that he dared not breathe and subconsciously shrank closer to Pei Shuyu.
How long will it take for it to land?
It was already early morning when the helicopter landed at the alliance's designated helipad. The night was dark, with only a few lonely lights illuminating the empty field.
Pei Shuyu tried to contact Yu Jingheng, hoping that this "good friend" of Lu Hean would take over the hot potato, but no one answered the phone after several attempts. He asked around and found out that Yu Jingheng was not in the area, apparently having gone out on some urgent matter.
Looking at Lu Hean who was leaning on him, his consciousness blurred and his whole body burning hot due to the susceptible period and pheromone overdraft, Pei Shuyu rubbed his eyebrows, and fatigue surged up like a tide.
It seems that we have to go to the hospital first.
Ke Bai drove the car, and Pei Shuyu almost half-carried and half-dragged Lu Hean into the back seat.
Along the way, Lu Hean's condition seemed to be getting worse. The fever of his susceptible period was completely out of control, and strong and chaotic pheromones filled the narrow compartment. He leaned against Pei Shuyu unconsciously, with fine cold sweat oozing from his forehead and uncomfortably mumbling from his mouth.
Ke Bai, who was driving, glanced through the rearview mirror, frowned in disdain, and lowered the window a crack to let the cold wind in and blow away the unpleasant smell.
The car finally arrived at the hospital's emergency room. Pei Shuyu was about to get out to get Lu Hean out when the unconscious man suddenly began to struggle, waving his arms wildly and speaking in a hoarse voice of resistance: "No... No, I don't want to go to the hospital..."
Pei Shuyu patiently held him down: "Don't move! You're in your susceptible period and your pheromones are overdrawn. Where else do you want to go if not to the hospital?"
"Don't go to the hospital... go back... go home... I have a special inhibitor at home..."
Pei Shuyu was stunned: "Are you sure?"
Lu Hean nodded vigorously, his eyes unfocused: "Yes... go back..."
Pei Shuyu looked at him and thought that going to the hospital might attract more attention and trouble. He hesitated for a moment, then finally sighed and said to Ke Bai in the driver's seat, "Please change the route and go back to his house."
Ke Bai glanced at them in the rearview mirror, and without asking any questions, he turned the steering wheel decisively.
The carriage fell into a brief silence, with only Lu Hean's heavy breathing as the sound.
After a while, Ke Bai suddenly spoke, his voice a little vague amidst the engine noise: "Pei Shuyu, if..."
Pei Shuyu's attention was mostly on trying to suppress the restless Lu Hean beside him. Hearing this, he just subconsciously said "Hmm?" and his eyes did not move away from Lu Hean.
Ke Bai looked through the rearview mirror and saw Pei Shuyu's completely focused look on Lu Hean. His eyes flickered twice, and he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. In the end, he just said lightly: "...Nothing."
The car finally stopped downstairs of Lu Hean's apartment. Pei Shuyu thanked Ke Bai and half-helped and half-carried Lu Hean out of the car again.
Ke Bai looked at their staggering backs, pursed his lips, and finally drove away.
Pei Shuyu carried Lu Hean into the elevator and came to the door of the apartment. He tried to enter the password Lu Hean told him last time, if Lu Hean had not changed it.
With a "beep", the door actually opened.
The room was pitch black, with a chilly atmosphere as if no one had lived there for a long time.
Pei Shuyu didn't even bother to turn on the light. He carried Lu Hean directly into the bedroom in the dark relying on his memory and threw him on the big bed.
As soon as Lu Hean touched the bed, he curled up and groaned in pain.
"Where is the inhibitor? Where is it?" Pei Shuyu turned on the bedside lamp and leaned over to ask him.
Lu Hean's eyes were blurred and he mumbled a few syllables, unable to speak clearly.
Pei Shuyu had no choice but to look for it himself.
He searched through the bedroom drawers, cabinets, and even the medicine cabinet in the living room, but there was no so-called special inhibitor anywhere. His eyes finally fell on the door that was always closed.
Before he had time to look at the door, Lu Hean came back.
At the time, he'd thought it was just an ordinary storage room. However, it made sense that something as important as the specific inhibitors would have to be locked away.
He walked closer and saw that there was indeed an exquisite combination lock on the door, which further confirmed his idea.
Pei Shuyu turned back to the bedside and looked at the unconscious Lu Hean. He had no hope at first, but he still tried to ask: "Lu Hean, how do you open that locked room? Is the inhibitor in there?"
Unexpectedly, Lu Hean seemed to have been triggered by a certain keyword, and he actually vaguely reported a string of numbers and locations as clearly as if reciting a formula: "Bedside table...bottom layer...secret compartment...box..."
Pei Shuyu immediately searched as he was told, and sure enough, he found a hidden compartment at the bottom of the bedside table. Inside was a black velvet box the size of a palm. It felt heavy in his hand and had a fingerprint lock.
He picked up the box and shook it, and indeed there was a subtle sound of something colliding inside. He held the box up to Lu Hean again and asked, "Is this it? The inhibitor is in here?"
Lu Hean forced himself to open his eyes, seemed to recognize it, then raised his hand with difficulty and pressed his thumb on the fingerprint recognition area on the side of the box.
There was a slight "beep" sound, and the box popped open.
What lay inside was not an inhibitor, but a bronze, uniquely shaped key.
Should I let him use this key to open it?
He picked up the key and walked towards the closed door. He inserted the key into the lock and turned it gently - "click".
The door opened.
It was pitch black inside, with only a little light from the living room shining in, barely enough to see. Pei Shuyu reached out and touched the switch on the wall and pressed it.
The moment the lights came on, he froze at the door as if under a spell, his pupils shrinking sharply in disbelief.
The room is not big, has no windows, and the walls on all four sides are covered with photos.
And all the photos are of the same person.
It's him.
Various angles, various scenes, secretly shot, long-distance, clear, blurry... There are pictures of him at the Sevan training ground, his back walking alone on the street after work, and his silhouette sitting by the window of a cafe reading a book while on a disguised mission... Arranged in chronological order, it almost records every detail of his life in the years after he left Lu Hean.
Pei Shuyu walked into this space step by step, his fingers trembling as he stroked the photos.
He was overwhelmed with emotions for a moment.
Lu Hean...actually...
At this moment, the dull sound of something heavy falling and a suppressed groan of pain came from the direction of the bedroom, interrupting Pei Shuyu's surging thoughts.
He suddenly came back to his senses, forced himself to pull himself away from the huge shock, turned around and rushed back to the bedroom.
Lu Hean had rolled off the bed at some point and was curled up in a mess on the carpet. The fever of his susceptible period seemed to have reached its peak. His face was flushed, his breathing was rapid, and he looked extremely painful.
Pei Shuyu looked at the person on the ground and thought of the secret room covered with his photos. He felt extremely complicated.
He squatted down and tried to help Lu Hean up, his voice dry and he didn't even notice it: "Lu Hean, where is the inhibitor? Where did you put it? I can't find it."
Pei Shuyu looked at Lu Hean, who was curled up on the ground and his consciousness was completely blurred, and grabbed a handful of his hair. He knew that he could not get any useful information from Lu Hean.
The fever during the susceptible period spreads like wildfire, and if it is not effectively soothed or suppressed, the situation will only get worse.
He immediately took out his communicator and called Ke Bai.
"Ke Bai, where is Qiao Zhishi now?" Pei Shuyu asked.
"Where else could he be? The investigation team's temporary detention room, doing a routine interrogation." Ke Bai's voice was a bit noisy in the background. "Why, are you suddenly concerned about him?"
"Can you find a way to bring Qiao Zhishi over temporarily?" Pei Shuyu said quickly, "Lu Hean's susceptible period is out of control, and I haven't found a specific inhibitor for him. Now we need a highly compatible omega-3 inhibitor for emergency use."
There was silence on the other end of the communicator for two seconds, and then Ke Bai's incredulous, high-pitched voice came: "Pei Shuyu! You want me to go to the detention room right now to pick up a key suspect, just to deliver pheromones to your ex-boyfriend?! What do you think I am? A courier?"
He paused, his tone filled with sarcasm and absurdity: "Heh, how about I just have someone draw some of his pheromones, put it in a bottle and send it to you?!"
This was obviously a statement made in anger and irony.
Unexpectedly, after a brief pause, Pei Shuyu actually answered seriously: "Is that okay? Then please bring me another ordinary inhibitor. Thank you for your hard work."
Ke Bai seemed to be choking on the other end, and after a while, he heard a silent gasp: "... Pei Shuyu, I really am... just wait!"
The call was hung up crisply.
Pei Shuyu put down the communicator and looked at Lu Hean who was groaning in pain, frowning.
Time passed by minute by minute, and each second seemed particularly long. Pei Shuyu could only try to cool Lu Hean down physically with a wet towel, but the effect was minimal.
Just as Pei Shuyu was thinking about whether to tie up Lu Hean with something and send him to the hospital, the doorbell rang urgently.
He walked quickly over and opened the door. Standing outside was the dusty Ke Bai, with an undisguised look of disgust on his face. He didn't enter, but simply pressed a small glass tube sealed with special material and a temporary label and an inhibitor into Pei Shuyu's hands.
Inside the glass tube, there is a small amount of clear liquid, which sways slightly under the light.
"Take it..." Ke Bai said unhappily, rubbing his fingers subconsciously as if they were stained with something dirty. "It was just extracted from the area around his gland. Damn it! I actually did such a thing!"
"Thank you for your hard work."
Ke Bai glared at Pei Shuyu and added in a nasty tone, "You owe me a huge favor this time! There will definitely not be a next time! But..." Ke Bai paused in confusion, "When Qiao Zhishi found out it was going to be used for Lu He'an, his reaction was weird. He asked why he had to be beaten?!"
Pei Shuyu didn't think much about it: "Maybe he doesn't know that Lu Hean's inhibitor is gone."
"All right."
After saying that, Ke Bai didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and left, his back revealing a sense of resentment of "I'm so unlucky".
Pei Shuyu tightly grasped the bottle of pheromone extract with body temperature in his hand and watched Ke Bai drive away quickly.
He closed the door and returned to Lu Hean.
Pei Shuyu placed the small bottle of pheromone extract on the bedside table and said to Lu Hean, who was curled up on the bed, "I've left the things here for you. Take care of them yourself. I'm leaving now."
He turned and walked out of the bedroom, closing the door gently, but did not leave immediately.
Leaning against the cold door, he held his breath and listened to the movement inside.
However, the expected calm did not appear. Instead, there were even more suppressed and painful gasps, as well as the sound of objects being swept down! Then, there was the crisp sound of glass shattering!
Pei Shuyu's heart trembled, and he immediately pushed the door open and rushed back.
I saw that the small glass bottle on the floor next to the bedside table had been broken into pieces, and the clear liquid inside had splashed out. The air was filled with the smell of Qiao Zhishi's pheromones, but it seemed... to stimulate Lu Hean even more.
His condition was even worse, with bloodshot eyes, like a trapped beast forced into a desperate situation.
Pei Shuyu was confused: It doesn't work?!
He immediately retreated to the living room and contacted Ke Bai again.
As soon as the communication was connected, Ke Bai's irritable voice came over: "What are you doing again?!"
"I want to talk to Qiao Zhishi." Pei Shuyu said hurriedly.
Ke Bai seemed to curse at the other end, but he still did as he was told. A minute later, Qiao Zhishi's timid voice came from the communicator: "Pei, Pei Shuyu?"
After a brief exchange, Pei Shuyu hung up the phone, a complex expression flashing across his face.
He stood there in silence for a few seconds, took out the inhibitor that Ke Bai had just sent him, and injected it into his vein neatly.
After doing all this, he took a deep breath and walked into the bedroom filled with two chaotic pheromones again.
The inhibitor began to work, helping him resist the physiological interference of pheromones and keep his mind calm.
The mixture of smells in the room was dizzying.
Pei Shuyu planned to take Lu Hean away from the chaos first, or at least to a place with good air circulation. He stepped forward and tried to pull Lu Hean up from the bed: "Get up, we can't stay here anymore."
But as soon as he touched Lu Hean's arm, he was suddenly countered by an even greater force! Lu Hean's brute force during his susceptible period was astonishing. He pulled him down, and in a split second, Pei Shuyu was pinned down on the bed. Lu Hean's hot, heavy body imprisoned him, and his scorching breath sprayed on the back of his neck.
Pei Shuyu didn't struggle violently. He just turned his head and asked calmly, "What are you doing?"
Lu Hean lowered his head, his lips almost touching his ear, his voice hoarse, full of desire and the danger of losing control: "You clearly know what I'm going to do."
Fuck you.
The intention was already exposed without even needing to be uttered.
However, the resistance Lu Hean expected did not come.
Pei Shuyu suddenly turned his face and gave Lu Hean a gentle but firm kiss on his hot forehead.
"Hmm." Pei Shuyu uttered a simple syllable to express his understanding and even agreement.
Then he went on to say, “So we need to change places.”
Now, it was Lu Hean's turn to be stunned. His frantic thoughts seemed to have been paused. He propped himself up a little and looked at the person beneath him in disbelief: "...What do you mean?" He suspected that he was hallucinating because of his susceptible period.
Pei Shuyu met his confused and inquiring gaze and asked two questions in a calm tone.
"Didn't you recover your memory?"
"Um."
"Didn't you see that ceramic doll I put together myself?"
"yes……"
The ceramic doll that Pei Shuyu had carefully glued together was like a silent confession that explained everything.
Pei Shuyu looked at his stunned expression and repeated, his tone full of calmness as if everything had been settled: "So, we need to move to another place."
This is not the right place.
Not only was the smell too strong, but it also seemed a bit disrespectful to Qiao Zhishi, the omega. He finally understood what Qiao Zhishi had said.
The frenzy in Lu Hean's eyes gradually faded, and he stared blankly at Pei Shuyu's calm yet resolute gaze, finally realizing that this wasn't a compromise, nor was it pity. His breathing suddenly stopped, and scalding tears fell uncontrollably, hitting the corner of Pei Shuyu's eye.
Pei Shuyu felt a slight moisture and trembling in the corners of his eyes, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.
Lu Hean choked with sobs, his voice broken: "Am I... am I dreaming again? This time... is it a beautiful dream?" He couldn't believe it, afraid that if he moved a little, the luxurious tenderness in front of him would suddenly shatter like countless times before.
Pei Shuyu raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears on his face with his fingertips, his movements filled with a belated and clumsy tenderness.
He looked into Lu Hean's hazy eyes, his voice low and clear: "I'm sorry... I said it too late, didn't I? If I had listened to your explanation at the time... this wouldn't have happened."
He owed this apology for too long.
When Lu Hean heard this, he was stunned at first, and then his emotions seemed to burst out, and his shoulders were shaking with tears. But as he cried, the arc of sadness slowly bent into a tearful, silly smile.
"Today's dream... was quite long." He whispered with a nasal tone, as if confirming something precious. "Usually... as soon as I touch you, I wake up from the dream."
Pei Shuyu's heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, and it hurt so much. He took a deep breath and patted Lu Hean on the back: "Get up quickly, let's change rooms."
"Change... where to change?" Lu Hean was still immersed in the anxiety and asked subconsciously.
Pei Shuyu looked at him, his lips curled up slightly, but with a hint of mischief, and he said clearly: "Go to that room with my photos all over the walls."
For a moment, Lu Hean froze. All the crying, giggling, and confusion were frozen on his face, leaving only huge shock and a hint of helplessness at having his deepest secret exposed.
He...how did he know?!
Is Pei Shuyu in the dream omniscient?
Seeing him completely stunned, Pei Shuyu exerted a little force on his waist and abdomen, and cleverly clamped Lu Hean's waist with his legs. With a clever move, he turned the two of them sideways so that they were facing each other and hugging each other.
He leaned close to Lu Hean's ear, his warm breath brushing against his earlobe, and teased with a hint of a successful prank:
"Now, do you still think this is a dream, Lu Hean?"
