"Oh, dear Lin Feng, is he your partner?"
In a biological research institute in Country L, a blond man looked at Su Ling with curiosity and gave exaggerated praise.
"He's so young, is he over twenty? He's a handsome little oriental boy!"
Lin Feng glanced over coldly, put his arm around Su Ling's shoulders, full of possessiveness.
Su Ling smiled politely.
Smith shrugged. Having known Lin Feng for a year, he had already figured out his temper, so he said without hesitation, "—Then, let's begin the treatment!"
Su Ling was held by Lin Feng's hand and passed through one checkpoint after another, entering a laboratory full of high-end instruments. The two metal beds placed in the middle were creepy to look at.
Sensing his nervousness, Lin Feng reached out and hugged him, kissed his forehead, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Leaning in the man's broad and warm embrace, Su Ling nodded. "Yeah."
Seven days later, H City Airport——
A group of fans, holding signs, gathered at the international flight's arrival gate, anxiously awaiting their idol. Half an hour passed, and passengers began to arrive, wheeling their luggage, but the person they were waiting for was nowhere to be seen.
"Are you sure Sugita Masamune came to H City this morning?"
"Confirmed! I checked online last night and found out he came to Country Z at the invitation of Huang Guo TV to participate in a reality show."
"Really? But two planes have already arrived, why haven't we seen a single one?"
"What's the rush? Did the two young ladies over there see it?"
"Huh? What happened to them?"
"They are professional fans at the airport. If they are here, it means there must be a celebrity here today."
"Oh, I see..."
"Don't worry! Even if there's no Sugita Masaki, there will be other stars. If we take good photos and retouch them carefully, we can definitely sell them for a good price!"
"That's true."
The girl standing in the front row raised the cannon camera in her hand, aimed it at the passengers coming out, and took pictures at any time.
Suddenly, two handsome men in high-end suits appeared in the camera, and the girl subconsciously pressed the shutter.
"Crack, crack—"
Her companion asked in surprise, "Who are you taking pictures of? Sugita Masaki hasn't come out yet!"
The girl took four or five photos in a row. As more people came, the two men quickly walked away.
"Look who I took the picture of? Hehe~" The girl pulled up the photo she had just taken.
The companion leaned over to take a closer look and asked in confusion, "Who are they?"
The girl excitedly said: "My new idol! The one on the left, is he good-looking? The man on the right is his husband, isn't he handsome? Today is such a good day, I actually met them at the airport! I'm going to show off in the group when I get back, hahaha~"
She smiled triumphantly, while her companions stared at the photo, amazed. "They're such a good match! Are they celebrities? They even dared to come out!"
Although same-sex marriage laws have been passed, celebrities in the entertainment industry generally dare not come out for fear of affecting their careers.
"It's not a celebrity, let me tell you in detail..."
Standing at the airport exit, Su Ling looked back.
"What's wrong?" Lin Feng asked.
"Well, when we came out just now, it seemed like someone was taking pictures." Su Ling said.
"A group of little girls chasing stars." Lin Feng said indifferently.
"It's great to be young, full of energy." Su Ling looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, feeling refreshed.
After completing the first course of treatment in Country L, he has not felt any obvious changes in his body, but he feels happy when he sees beautiful things.
Professor Smith said that his acceptance of Lin Feng's genetic medicine was over 99%, almost perfect. The treatment process was even smoother than his experiments on mice. After three more courses of treatment, his disease would be cured.
Holding the man's hand tightly, Su Ling turned his head slightly and gazed at his perfect profile affectionately.
Lying on the cold metal bed, wearing surgical gown and surrounded by several researchers in white coats, he felt deeply the fear of being at the mercy of others.
Over the past year, Lin Feng had lain on a metal bed countless times, had his stem cells extracted countless times, and how much courage did it take to put his fate in the hands of a stranger for the first time?
As I thought about it, my eyes became moist.
In the past, he might have been more agitated, but after one treatment, he was able to stabilize his emotions.
Lin Feng understood and said in a low voice: "For you, everything is worth it."
Su Ling stood on tiptoe, leaned forward and kissed his chin. "Thank you, husband."
Lin Feng said "hmm" with a serious expression, but the upturned corners of his mouth betrayed his good mood.
Instead, Su Ling pouted. In seven days, after they got their divorce certificate, her husband would become her boyfriend.
The black car slowly stopped in front of the two men. Zhan Yang got out of the driver's seat and said respectfully to them, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, Mr. Su, I'm late."
"It's okay, we just got off the plane." Su Ling said.
Zhan Yang opened the trunk, took the luggage from Lin Feng's hand, and stuffed it in. After the two of them were in the car, he returned to the driver's seat and fastened his seat belt.
"Are King and Lion okay?" Zhan Yang asked in front of Su Ling.
After finishing treatment, Lin Feng received a call from Zhan Yang. There was a project that needed his personal signature, so the two of them bought tickets directly to City H. I haven't seen the two little pets for many days, and I wonder if they miss their owner.
Zhan Yang turned the steering wheel, steered the car onto the road, and replied, "Yes! They squat at the gate every day and wait, returning to the house only after dark."
When Su Ling heard this, she felt heartbroken. She wanted to go home quickly and hug the two poor little guys.
"But they eat a lot every day, and they get fatter as they grow bigger." Zhan Yang coughed lightly.
Which one is fatter? He was new to caring for the animals at first. Seeing them squatting in front of their food bowls, he assumed they were hungry, so he immediately poured cat and dog food in. He fed them seven or eight times a day. After a week, both pets were so fat they could barely run. He felt something was wrong, so he quickly checked online and realized he was overfeeding them.
After that, I reduced the feeding frequency, but I couldn’t prevent them from gaining too much fat, and they looked much fatter than before Mr. Su left.
Su Ling didn't see any cats or dogs, and thought Zhan Yang's "fat" was just a polite expression, so he didn't take it seriously. But when he returned to the Su family's house and saw two little guys who looked like meatballs, he was stunned.
“Woof woof woof woof!”
“Meow~~~~Meow~~~”
Two chubby, fluffy guys ran towards Su Ling happily. Su Ling squatted down and looked at them in shock.
"King?" He touched the local dog's big belly uncertainly.
"Woof!" King stuck out his tongue and smiled happily, the tuft of golden hair on his head was unusually bright.
"Lion?" Su Ling picked up the ten-pound tabby cat. It looked heavy and substantial.
Wasn't he only gone for a little over half a month? Why did those two little cuties turn into giant balls? This doesn't make sense!
Zhan Yang touched his nose and took two steps behind Lin Feng, trying his best to hide himself and reduce his presence.
Lin Feng's fear of animals remained unchanged. Seeing that Su Ling was almost done with the two pets, he said to him, "It's sunny outside, come inside first."
"Okay." Su Ling put the tabby cat back on the ground. The tabby cat cried in dissatisfaction, sticking out its butt and rubbing against his legs continuously.
"Lion, you are too fat. You must exercise more." Su Ling was indifferent to its coquettish behavior.
However, the tabby cat persevered, with its chubby butt raised high.
"What's going on?" Su Ling asked Zhan Yang in confusion.
"It started like this a few days ago. It likes to stick its butt up, rubs everywhere, pees everywhere, and howls at night," Zhan Yang said distressedly. Because of its urine, he washed the living room carpet, four curtains, and the sheets in the upstairs bedroom three times.
It’s really too difficult!
Su Ling opened his mouth and asked hesitantly, "Isn't it... estrus?"
When the tabby cat came to his house, it was about three months old. Now it is almost seven or eight months old. Calculating the time, it is indeed time for it to go into heat.
"Ah? In heat?" Zhan Yang was stunned. So small animals can also go into heat?
Su Ling picked up Li Hua, held it in his arms, scratched its chin and said, "Looks like I have to take it to be sterilized."
"Sterilization?" Zhan Yang blushed. "Isn't that a bit cruel?"
Lin Feng glanced at the ignorant little thing nestling in Su Ling's arms.
"Or find a female cat for it, and then let it give birth to litter after litter of kittens." Su Ling said.
"Sterilize him!" Lin Feng said firmly.
Su Ling couldn't help but laugh.
Lin Feng couldn't stand having two pets at home. If they really gave birth to a litter of kittens, he would probably go crazy.
At noon, Su Ling simply made tomato and egg noodles, and the three of them ate it together.
After dinner, Lin Feng and Zhan Yang drove to Liuxian Town, while Su Ling took care of the vegetables in the backyard at home.
The weather was hot and the vegetables grew fast. The vegetables in that row were old, so he had to pull them out and sow new seeds.
After finishing his work, it was already two in the afternoon. He pounded his aching waist. After more than half a month without farm work, he was feeling a bit exhausted. He went upstairs to take a shower, change into loose clothes, and was about to take a nap when the doorbell rang.
"Brother Su, are you home?"
It was Li Dahai's voice.
Su Ling responded and went downstairs to open the door. Seeing the young man with a freshly shaved head, he smiled and said, "Come in!"
Yesterday on WeChat, he told Li Dahai that he was going back to the village, and Li Dahai happily sent a row of emoticons.
In three days it will be mid-August and the cram school for junior high school to high school will officially start. He has to take the boy to the training institution in advance to pay the tuition.
Back in the living room, Su Ling said to Li Dahai, "Wait here for a while. I'm going upstairs to change into clothes for going out."
"Okay, Brother Su." Li Dahai squatted down and happily picked up the fat cat.
"Cat~" the fat tabby cat called out obediently.
"Woof woof——" King bit a ball and came over, wagging his tail to ask for play.
Li Dahai picked up the ball and threw it outside. Although King was fat, he was still quick and ran out to find the ball. In contrast, Lion lazily nestled in his arms, yawned, and began to feel sleepy.
After changing his clothes, Su Ling went downstairs and saw the fat cat sleeping in Li Dahai's arms. He took out the cat bag and stuffed the cat in.
The Lion suddenly changed its position, opened its eyes in confusion, huddled in the small space, struggled and waved its claws, making miserable cries.
"Brother Su, do you want to take it with you?" Li Dahai asked.
"Well, after paying the tuition, I'll go to the pet hospital." Su Ling comforted the kitten and zipped up the cat bag.
Lion has gained weight. He used to be able to fit comfortably in the cat bag, but now it’s so crowded that he can hardly turn around.
Su Ling picked up Mao Bao, asked King to look after the house, took Li Dahai out, and drove his cheap car to Liuxian Town.
When the head of the training institution saw Su Ling and Li Dahai reporting in, he gave them a warm welcome.
"We provide accommodation here, four people to a room, and we have a cafeteria for meals. We study six days a week, with evening study until nine o'clock, and Sundays off." The person in charge pushed his glasses. "I personally recommend that you stay overnight and try not to waste time traveling back and forth."
Su Ling asked Li Dahai for his opinion: "What do you think?"
Li Dahai was undecided. "It's almost autumn planting time, and I have to help my grandparents with farm work."
Su Ling said: "If you want to take the high school entrance examination, you should focus on your studies."
"But..." Li Dahai was confused. His grandparents were old, and if he didn't help, what would happen to the five acres of land at home?
"Don't worry!" Su Ling stroked his buzz cut and said gently, "I will take good care of your grandparents."
Li Dahai nodded with guilt and gratitude.
After paying tuition and accommodation fees, the two went to the pet hospital.
As soon as I stepped into the hospital lobby, I saw a well-dressed woman angrily grabbing a little boy's ears and yelling, "Jenny is a purebred British Shorthair I spent 50,000 yuan on. If she dies, I'll beat your ass to pieces! You debt collector! What else do you do besides eat?"
Everyone around them stayed away from them, and no one stepped forward to dissuade them. Su Ling looked at the woman and found that she looked familiar. He searched his mind and finally remembered her.
Isn’t she the lady who bought a fake suit at the dry cleaner last time?
I met her again at the pet hospital.
What a fate.
However, as an adult, doesn't she feel ashamed of bullying a child in public?
The child looked only five or six years old. He was thin, with a pale face and skinny body. His ears were pulled red, but he said nothing. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Su Ling couldn't help but look at him twice, and then he was stunned.
This child's facial features... resembled Lin Feng! Especially his eyes, which were slightly narrow and long, with a deep, resolute gaze. Facing the woman's rage, he showed no fear at all.
If it wasn't for the fact that Lin Feng had never been to H City before and had never dated anyone, Su Ling would have almost suspected that this child was his illegitimate child! !
The author has something to say: PS: The child is definitely not Mr. Lin’s, haha.
