What are you doing in Chapter 64?
The two looked at each other, unusually without any tension.
There is a sense of relief, like surviving a disaster.
Lin Yao stared at him for a while, then regained his composure: "Is this hospital safe? I'm afraid my Omega identity will be exposed."
Xie Xingchen nodded slightly: "The doctor that General Pei personally found only performed hemostasis for you. If he still has medical ethics, your examination will not involve identification of your second gender."
“Okay.” Lin Yao cleared his throat, trying to explain the situation to him. “I think they were all IAAL’s test subjects. Because of some mechanism, they would prioritize harming people who were important to them, which is why they ended up killing each other.”
Xie Xingchen is always good at grasping key words. He lazily sat back in the chair next to him, feeling a little better: "So, your subconscious has already decided that I am the most important."
Lin Yao: ".........."
This guy's focus is completely off.
His lips tightened: "Aren't you angry?"
The moment I woke up, all I could see in my mind was Xie Xingchen's calm face.
"Lin Yao, were you just trying to kill me?"
These words bombarded his brain like a tight band, giving him a splitting headache and making his heart pound with fear, like a nightmare.
He lowered his eyes and confessed, "I almost hit you."
Xie Xingchen hummed in agreement, his tone nonchalant: "You used to hate me so much, but at most you were a little rough during fights. You're a cool person with a soft heart. How could you possibly want to kill me? I have a brain, I'm not so stupid that I can't even tell the difference."
It's the feeling of being unconditionally trusted.
My heart felt like it was being gently struck, pounding loudly.
Lin Yao wasn't good at expressing himself. He stared at him for a long time before nodding slightly and saying, "Thank you."
He was unusually polite.
Xie Xingchen sighed inwardly, thinking to himself that he was really frightened. The cool guy had completely turned into a frightened kitten and needed to be coaxed.
Before he could say anything, there was a knock on the door, and Pei Yizhong peeked out from the glass window in the door: "Lin Yao, may I come in?"
Xie Xingchen clicked his tongue softly, somewhat displeased: "He's a little too concerned about you. He wouldn't actually want to introduce Pei Xiang to you, would he?"
Lin Yao was confused and didn't know why this name suddenly came up: "Pei Xiang? We're both Omegas, how can we be together?"
“Article 237 of the Alliance Law states that one must not defame others in any way or with any words, and must respect the love between all gender combinations, otherwise I will be arrested by the police.” Xie Xingchen’s memory is ridiculously good. “Back then, Jiang Qiran said he wanted to pursue you, and you said I was discriminating against homosexuals.”
Lin Yao: "......."
This person must be a reincarnation of a contrarian, especially good at bringing up old grievances, you can't win an argument with them.
The light outside was dim. Lin Yao glanced at Pei Yizhong, who was still standing tall at the door, and said in a low voice, "Let him in. Maybe he has something important to say."
Xie Xingchen hummed in agreement, slowly stood up, and bluntly said, "I'm about to meet my future father-in-law, and you can't wait to get rid of me."
What is all this nonsense?
I seriously suspect he was shot in the head and is mentally unstable.
“I don’t like Pei Xiang.” Lin Yao frowned as he watched him act strangely. “Why would you have such a weird idea? Even if I were to grow old alone, I would never reveal my Omega identity to others. How stupid would that be?”
Upon hearing this, Xie Xingchen's expression finally relaxed.
That's great. Among my peers, no one else but myself would know.
His mood brightened, and he strode up to open the ward door, this time with a touch more politeness: "Sorry, we've been talking for a little longer than expected, and I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
The ward was filled with the smell of disinfectant and a faint pheromone. When Pei Yizhong entered, he frowned slightly.
He carried the food he had just bought and placed it on the bedside table, speaking in the softest of whispers: "You've slept all day, you need to eat something."
Being taken care of like this by the Great General of a One-Star Lord is unbelievable, and Lin Yao's thoughts also went astray along with Xie Xingchen's.
They wouldn't really want to set him up with Pei Xiang, would they?
No, I need to explain it to him clearly.
Lin Yao struggled to sit up, his face still flushed with fever, and carefully said, "You don't need to take such good care of me. I'm used to it. These are just minor injuries, it's not worth making such a fuss."
"What kind of life did you lead before?" Pei Yizhong asked in a low voice. "What about your parents?"
Lin Yao shook his head, his tone calm: "No, I have no parents."
Pei Yizhong was stunned, staring at him for a long time before saying, "I'm sorry, but if you're willing, you can treat me as... as your father."
Lin Yao blinked blankly.
Is Xie Xingchen really that good at judging people? That's such a blunt statement. What's the difference between that and directly asking him to become a live-in son-in-law?
No, he doesn't want to marry Pei Xiang.
"General Pei, thank you for your kindness, but I'm used to being alone and don't get close to people, so I'd rather not," Lin Yao said softly. "I'm a little tired and want to sleep a little longer."
It wasn't exactly a lie; influenced by the smell from the previous training area, his head was spinning, and he desperately wanted to do something to suppress that restlessness.
Pei Yizhong looked into his eyes, which were stubborn, like some kind of wild beast, full of an indomitable spirit.
I both like it and feel sorry for it.
He nodded, not forcing the other party, and simply said, "Okay, I understand. I'll bring my wife and Pei Xiang to see you again tomorrow."
Alarm bells rang in Lin Yao's mind, and he couldn't think of any other reason for the moment. His eyes swept over Xie Xingchen, who was standing at the door, and he grabbed him as a lifeline.
"Tomorrow? No way."
"What's wrong?"
"Tomorrow I'm going to review military and political science with Xie Xingchen, because we have an exam when we get back."
"You really love learning, even when you're sick you're still reading. What about the day after tomorrow?"
"The day after tomorrow, the day after that, and the day after that, I have to do group work with Xie Xingchen."
"...Then we'll wait until you're discharged from the hospital."
Lin Yao said with a firm look in his eyes, "Now that all the personnel from the Blood Plague have been cleared out and the post-battle work is proceeding normally, we will prepare to return home after being discharged from the hospital. You are busy with official duties, so I will say goodbye here in advance."
Pei Yizhong stared at him for several seconds, then sighed softly, "Alright, then take care of yourself. I originally wanted to ask you why you got injured, but now it seems you probably don't want to talk about it, so never mind."
Lin Yao watched him get up and leave, then let out a long sigh of relief and sank into his pillow.
He reached out and grabbed the electronic thermometer from the bedside table, pressed it to his forehead, and waited for the reading. He watched as Pei Yizhong and Xie Xingchen were talking about something at the door.
If she herself is unwilling, does that mean she intends to marry Xie Xingchen?
However, Xie Xingchen already has Jiang Qiran, and Xie Hengzhi said that their marriage is a done deal and they will get married sooner or later.
Lin Yao lowered his eyes, unable to describe his feelings. He heard a beep and looked down at the instrument to check the numbers.
It's 39.2 degrees Celsius, still burning hot.
"Never mind, I'll sleep a little longer." Lin Yao put the thermometer back on the bedside table, his gaze lingering for a second on the food he had just brought over.
I had no appetite and didn't want to eat, so I slowly slid down and sank into the soft blankets.
I had only closed my eyes for less than two seconds when I felt a chill on my head.
Someone grabbed her shoulder and pulled her out of the blanket. Xie Xingchen placed a chilled towel on her forehead, which he didn't know where he got it from. It felt very comfortable.
He slightly raised his chin, wanting more.
However, he was held down by the other party and could not move.
Lin Yao narrowed his eyes, grabbed his wrist with an unhappy expression, pressed it towards himself, and complained with a frown, "You're so annoying."
"I heard you're going to work for me for three days..."
Lin Yao felt the strong pulse beating on his wrist, as if infected by his body temperature, and the fever that had just subsided returned, making his cheeks warm.
Xie Xingchen paused, then said sarcastically, "Group assignment? How come I didn't know about this?"
Lin Yao's breathing became slightly erratic: "I'm dizzy, don't talk."
Xie Xingchen wouldn't let him off the hook: "What do you want to do in three days? Tell me."
