Chapter 15
The black sedan's tires began to slip on the soft soil, and the vehicle completely lost balance, repeatedly hitting rocks and trees. The body of the vehicle gradually twisted and deformed, and finally hit the tree vertically, stirring up a small cloud of dust.
Compared to the SUV, it was not so terrible. Although the door also had a large dent and the paint was scratched badly, Yun Lin'ai was still able to stop the car, but the right side of the car body was hanging in the air and tilted at an unnatural angle.
Shi Yu's forehead hit the car window hard, and blood came out soon. The collision was really hard. With his vision blurred, he felt his body being pulled by an irresistible force, but the seat belt was soon unbuckled and he fell into a not-so-warm embrace.
The blood on his forehead was flowing frighteningly. Shi Yu vaguely saw Yun Linai's brows slightly furrowed and his lips pressed tightly together. Only then did he realize that the car was tilted too much. He spoke in a hoarse voice that even surprised himself: "...How are you?"
Yun Linai leaned against the seatback and the car window, his expression slightly complicated. He raised his hand and rubbed the man's forehead with his thumb, his voice dull and hoarse: "It's bleeding."
Shi Yu felt no other discomfort except a slight headache, but he was clearly aware that he was still lying on the injured person, and there were already some red marks on the other person's white shirt.
"Your wound is torn!" Shi Yu looked panicked and tried to get away from him, but someone held his back.
Yun Linai's tone was very bad: "Don't move."
He tilted his head and spoke in a low voice. Shi Yu stopped moving instantly and just stared blankly.
The blow to his forehead was so painful that he still couldn't see Yun Lin'ai's face clearly. So he wanted to get closer, but he noticed that the other person's head tilted back, so he stopped moving.
The distance between them was only an inch, as if there were thousands of mountains and rivers between them, yet as if they were just a stone's throw away. Whenever Shi Yu wanted to touch her, he was always met with retreat and silence. But at this moment, he could feel Yun Lin'ai's heartbeat, so clearly.
Walking further down the hillside, there is the sea connected to the beach. Shi Yu nestled quietly in Yun Lin'ai's arms, and could hear the tiny sound of the waves. His consciousness kept drifting, and finally even his stomach problems, which had just happened, flared up at this inopportune moment.
Shi Yu held his stomach and raised his head again. Yun Linai lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed on him, his gaze resting on his still bleeding forehead. His Adam's apple moved up and down unconsciously, as if silently swallowing bitterness: "It's still a bit too much."
Shi Yu saw Yun Lin'ai's regretful expression for the first time. He comforted him: "But we are all alive, right?"
Yun Linai couldn't help but chuckle: "It seems that your requirements are really low."
The car fell silent again. Yun Linai stared at the hair that swirls around Shi Yu's head and asked casually, "Have you never thought about freedom?"
When Shi Yu heard his words, his expression froze, but he regained some consciousness and said, "I have thought about it."
"But there is no absolute freedom in this world."
He paused and continued, "...When the consequences of one person's actions have an irreversible impact on another person, freedom will be restricted. Of course, it is not absolute, but requires the other person's... emotional addition."
Yun Lin'ai didn't say anything. He tilted his head and looked quietly at a certain point in the air. The communicator in the mezzanine kept ringing, but he ignored it because he couldn't reach it. It would soon get dark, and Shi Yu in his arms began to shiver with cold.
"Don't sleep yet." Yun Lin'ai held his face, his forehead was hot to the touch.
Time seemed to stretch out, and Shi Yu felt that every second had lost its clear boundaries. His cheek was touched by slightly cool fingertips, and he couldn't help but hum. Everything around him became blurry and distant.
But fortunately, there was only the scent of Yun Lin'ai around him. Before his consciousness was about to disappear, he remembered that he still didn't know what Yun Lin'ai's pheromones smelled like.
Even if that smell can make me feel at ease.
…
Shi Yu fell into a deep sleep. Yun Lin'ai was holding him and he couldn't move much. He tried a few times but gave up and finally sighed. He held the other person's right hand with his injured hand and rubbed his thumb lightly on the shallow scar on the palm.
The sky darkened completely, and accompanied by the sound of rising tide, Yun Lin'ai secretly and restrainedly placed a light kiss on it.
Time seemed to pass quickly again. White light began to spread around the SUV, and the crooked door was pulled open forcefully from the outside.
Lu Yichuan squatted on the passenger door, shining the light inside. Yun Lin'ai raised his arm to block Shi Yu's view. He heard Lu Yichuan's arrogant voice: "Brother, I almost caught up with Dr. Jiang. I rushed over as soon as I received your message. Tell me if I am loyal or not?"
Yun Lin'ai was in no mood to talk to him because his wound had reopened, but at this moment he couldn't help but sneer contemptuously: "Even if I give birth to a child, you won't be able to catch up."
"How can you talk like that?" Lu Yichuang said "Hey", not intending to say too much nonsense to this patient.
Of course, Shi Yu, who had fainted, didn't hear the childish conversation between the two grown men. However, when he was rescued by the first one, he regained consciousness. Noticing the aura around him fading, he panicked for a moment: "...Where are the people?"
In the unknown environment and drowsy consciousness, it was difficult for him to trust anyone except that one person.
"Here."
After being rescued by Lu Yichuang, Yun Lin'ai ignored the lacerations on his body and immediately walked to Shi Yu, asking his subordinates who were supporting him to hand the person over to him. Shi Yu's steps were unsteady and he couldn't stand for long. He grabbed Yun Lin'ai's arm and was about to slide down, but was quickly caught.
Yun Lin'ai bent down and picked him up easily, as if he was not injured at all.
"Is the person in the car dead?"
The casual remark brought Lu Yichuan back to his senses: "I just sent someone down to check. If he's not dead, he must be seriously injured."
"Keep an eye on him and tell me when he wakes up." Yun Lin'ai held Shi Yu in his arms and walked towards the ambulance against the sea breeze.
A familiar figure was standing in the distance. He and others were pushing the unconscious prisoner into the ambulance. Yun Lin'ai walked closer and saw from the light of the car that it was Jiang Kuo, the beta that Lu Yichuang had been chasing for a long time.
The man always wore a turtleneck sweater with a white medical coat on top. When he saw Yun Linai, he smiled politely and said, "Lieutenant Yun."
Yun Lin'ai didn't ask why the surgeon also needed to come, but nodded expressionlessly. Shi Yu in his arms moved restlessly a few times. He didn't bother to talk to Jiang Kuo and carried him to another ambulance.
Jiang Kuo followed after he finished cleaning up, quietly tending to Shi Yu's forehead wound. A few blood-stained cotton cloths were thrown on the simple tray. Yun Lin'ai, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up at this moment: "Will it leave a scar?"
Jiang Kuo glanced at him in surprise, then lowered his head to apply the gauze again. "If you apply the medicine carefully, there won't be any scars. Also, be careful not to get your hair wet when you wash it these few days."
"Yeah." Yun Linai said he understood.
At this time, Lu Yichuan finished his finishing work and got on the ambulance. He noticed the injury on Jiang Kuo's hand at first glance and immediately shook it, his expression very nervous: "How did you get this injury?"
Jiang Kuo, on the other hand, remained calm. He pulled his hand away calmly and said, "I accidentally pricked it when I was moving the prisoner just now."
"Does it hurt?" Lu Yichuang stared at the wound with heartache. Even when he was injured, he didn't make such a big noise.
Jiang Kuo didn't reply. Instead, he glanced at Shi Yu on the cart and said in a flat voice, "Lieutenant Lu, the cart is overloaded with you. You'd better go to the cart behind."
Lu Yichuang had long been accustomed to the other person's expression, and expressed his understanding generously. After all, saving people was the most important thing. In the end, he really obediently went to the military vehicle behind.
After the others left, Jiang Kuo frowned uncontrollably, raised his hand to cover the back of his neck and rubbed it for a while, then quickly put it down, as if he didn't want others to know something. This action was caught by Yun Lin'ai when he inadvertently raised his eyelids, but it had nothing to do with him, so he went back to staring at the sleeping Shi Yu.
Shi Yu seemed to be in great pain. He curled up his body, facing Yun Lin'ai, and pressed his aching stomach with his right hand. The high fever almost made him unconscious.
Yun Lin'ai bent down and touched Shi Yu's forehead with the back of his hand. It was hotter than ever before. In addition, the smell of snow lotus gradually wafted from the closed trunk, which made him feel uncertain.
So he told Jiang Kuo: "His pheromones are very strong."
The other party seemed to have noticed it before he spoke, and came forward to take a look at Shi Yu's glands, which had begun to turn red and were gradually showing signs of erupting.
"His glands can't wait any longer and require immediate surgery."
The ambulance quickly drove into the gate of the suburban hospital. Qin Yue, who had been waiting in the hospital, opened the door first and soon smelled the Omega pheromones in the car. He turned to look at Yun Lin'ai, whose face looked very bad. It was obvious that he had been enduring for a long time, but he still held the handle of the cart and was unwilling to let go.
Qin Yue followed and pulled the cart out of the ambulance: "We can't wait until his physical condition improves. We have to do surgery. Otherwise, it will trigger a fever and it will be troublesome."
Shi Yu's face was pale. Under the double torture of his stomach and glands, he was woken up by the pain. When he noticed the cart moving, he raised his head slowly, and his overly delicate appearance revealed a fragile and morbid look.
His eyes moved slightly as if he was looking for someone, and then he realized that his left hand had been held by someone. The person's fingertips were slightly rough, and he could feel the scars on his wrist where the other person was unconsciously rubbing.
Through his blurred vision, he caught sight of Yun Lin'ai's figure, following his cart all the way to the door of the operating room. Shi Yu didn't hear what the other party said, but his consciousness gradually fell into darkness again, and the warmth on his wrist slowly disappeared.
"The operation requires the signature of the family members. Do we need to contact their family?" Qin Yue was holding the electronic confirmation form, but was rejected by Yun Lin'ai as soon as he finished speaking.
"Contacting them will only delay things." He took the confirmation form and signed his name. "I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
When Lu Yichuan caught up with the person signing, he no longer had the same surprise as before. Instead, he looked worried as the other person signed: "Aren't you leaving a record?"
The chairman is a serious person. He will be the first to know about any movement of Yun Lin'ai. He could understand that buying things for others and going to the aquarium was just a whim of his son.
But once you sign the surgery confirmation form, the nature of the situation changes completely. The chairman will gradually investigate Shi Yu's background and try every means to make him disappear in front of Yun Lin'ai.
The chairman who holds a high position is very concerned about his reputation and has done many things that are hypocritical. How could a person who cares so much about power let his son fall in love with an Omega who has no status at all?
“There’s not much time to think about it.”
Lu Yichuang actually caught a hint of self-blame in his tone. Yun Lin'ai's voice trembled imperceptibly. He stood outside the operating room. The only glaring red light in the empty corridor was the red light. He waited quietly without saying another word.
