Chapter 21
The flowering period of the manor is longer than anywhere else. The surrounding area is equipped with a constant temperature system that the manor owner bought at a high price. Even in the southern region where it snows frequently, these flowers can bloom on time. In addition, there are people to take care of them every day, and Shi Yu is only responsible for helping with watering and picking out dead branches and leaves.
The weather in the southern suburbs is always gloomy and cold, and it is easy to catch a cold or fever if you are not careful. Even though it is almost early spring, there is no sign of warming up.
A month passed quietly, and Shi Yu still hadn't received any news from Yun Lin'ai. Suddenly, a light snow fell, gently landing on the flower petals, and finally turned into a drop of water and disappeared into the soil.
The chill of the night had not gone away. Shi Yu stood by the window, staring at the garden downstairs in a daze. There were too many thoughts in his mind that lingered for a long time, which caused him to suffer from insomnia for a long time.
The culprit behind these thoughts was that annoying guy who hadn't called me in ten days.
During this month, Shi Yu would read for a while in Yun Lin'ai's study every day, and only go to see the flowers downstairs during his rest time. Occasionally, when he met Qin Yue coming to the manor to check the health of Mr. Yun Zhi, he would ask Qin Yue the questions he wrote in the notebook.
"How can we do without practical operation? Have you ever thought about internship?"
Shi Yu had also thought about Qin Yue's problem, but he was being searched everywhere by prison staff, so he still couldn't go to crowded places.
"But Zheng Xiao probably doesn't have time to look for you recently."
Shi Yu didn't quite understand, "Why?"
It was Qin Yue's turn to be stunned. "Lieutenant Yun didn't tell you?"
"One time, during a morning meeting, he reported Zheng Xiao for embezzlement. When the chairman learned about this, he was extremely angry and even suspended Zheng Xiao."
Shi Yu's head seemed to be even more confused, and there was a buzzing sound.
He remained silent for a long time, but Qin Yue began to murmur, "You said he didn't report it earlier or later, and he already knew about it privately. Why did he report it now?"
Shi Yu opened his mouth, wanting to say that he didn't know, but the words wouldn't come out. Memories kept coming back like waves, and even his own vague guesses gradually became clear.
Yun Lin'ai said nothing, but did everything.
Just for Shi Yu, just for him.
......
The dark blue night was covered by dark clouds, and the stars were hidden in the depths without a single ray of light. It was not until the first ray of light shone out from a distance of millions or even billions of kilometers that Shi Yu returned to bed.
There is a blank ceiling in front of me, and when I close my eyes, there is endless darkness. My consciousness, whether deep or shallow, cannot return to the starting point.
He seemed to be asleep and not asleep at the same time. The light came in secretly through the undrawn curtains. Shi Yu woke up quickly. Not long after, the housekeeper knocked on his door.
His heart, which had not been asleep for a long time, was not feeling well at this moment. Shi Yu got up with a dizzy head and went to open the door. Then there was the housekeeper's second urgent knock on the door. Only then did Shi Yu feel a bad premonition.
"Mr. Shi, news has come from the northern war zone."
"It is said that the mission has been completed, but the young master was injured..."
His heavy heart paused for a moment, sinking uncontrollably into the depths of his heart. Shi Yu's hands began to tremble, and he spoke in a weak, trembling voice, "Where are they?"
"On the way back, the helicopter will land directly on the roof of the hospital headquarters."
The housekeeper didn't know what was going on. He clearly said on the phone that there were no vital injuries and that the patient had been bandaged. But he didn't know why he suddenly fainted and had to be rushed to the hospital.
Shi Yu had no idea what kind of injuries Yun Lin'ai had suffered. Even the North District Hospital couldn't cure them. His mind was already filled with what he had seen before: Yun Lin'ai had scars hidden on his cuffs and under his collar, and even his hands were covered with a thick layer of gunshot calluses.
His entire body was covered with scars from the battlefield, indelible and unforgettable.
"Lin Ai is a lucky boy with a long life. He will be fine. Don't worry." Lian Yunzhi couldn't help but comfort Shi Yu when he saw his pale face, although he was anxious in his heart.
After all, Shi Yu looked very bad.
He didn't sleep well all night, and the rainy weather made him catch a cold. The incomplete development of his glands would always cause him indelible pain even after surgery, and being sick since childhood had become a habit.
Shi Yu didn't care about his physical condition at this time. Qin Yue rushed to the hospital early, so he didn't know Shi Yu's physical condition. But if he knew, he would never let him take the risk to spend those seven days in darkness.
......
Yun Zhi was still worried that something serious might happen to his grandson. The helicopter was not due to arrive until the evening, so he sent someone to arrange a car in the morning and prepared to go to the hospital to wait.
The crutch in his hand pressed his palm until it turned red, and Yun Zhi couldn't even walk steadily, but he still thought of Shi Yu who was standing there at a loss.
He waved to the child and said slowly, "Xiao Yu, if you can't stay at home anymore, come with grandpa."
He seemed to be able to see through Shi Yu's thoughts, but he still did not poke a hole in the delicate relationship between Shi Yu and Yun Lin'ai. He also gave Shi Yu enough right to choose and did not impose his worries on a child.
"I..." Shi Yu lowered his eyelids to hide the slight trembling in his expression, "I'm going."
Yun Zhi was in poor health, so the housekeeper cleaned up the place before letting the driver drive off. At this time, Shi Yu's hands and feet were completely cold, and his brain seemed unable to think anymore.
The shadows of the trees outside the car window passed by quickly. Such a long journey did not leave a single memory in Shi Yu's mind.
At first, he just coughed a few times and didn't realize he had a fever.
Later they waited in the hospital's VIP ward. Several times, the nurse passed by the door and saw several people inside. She thought that the thin figure and the old man sitting on the sofa were the ones who needed treatment.
The ticking of the clock made Shi Yu gradually become anxious. He didn't eat much of his lunch and was worried about every second.
Over time, Shi Yu felt a buzzing in his ears. At first he thought he had tinnitus, but when he saw Yun Zhi excitedly standing up in his blurry vision, he realized that Yun Lin'ai was back.
The helicopter landed on the top floor of the military hospital building. Qin Yue walked forward with a serious expression and worked with other doctors to lift the stretcher down from the top. The loud roar continued. The person on the stretcher had his hands and feet tied up and looked miserable. Qin Yue only took one look and his face turned pale: "Push to the isolation room."
The meeting scene that Shi Yu imagined no longer existed. He and Yun Zhi did not wait for Yun Lin'ai in the ward, but were told that they could not meet yet.
Qin Yue's assistant had some understanding of Yun Lin'ai's condition, so he explained, "Lieutenant Yun is in his susceptible period. Not only is his condition very serious this time, but his pheromone disorder is also about to relapse."
"Even if I see you now, I won't be able to regain my sanity, and I might even hurt someone." The assistant said and glanced at Shi Yu.
Yunzhi knew about Yun Lin'ai's illness, but Shi Yu had never heard anyone tell him that Yun Lin'ai had pheromone disorder.
As an old man, Yun Zhi is no longer suitable for exposure to unfamiliar pheromones, only Shi Yu can.
"Take me to the isolation room. Can't I wait outside?"
The assistant seemed hesitant, but Shi Yu added, "At least let me ask Dr. Qin about his specific condition."
So the other party relented, and under Yun Zhi's gaze, the two of them went to the isolation room alone.
The hospital has a special building with an isolation room set up for Alpha's susceptible period. Yun Lin'ai has come to the hospital many times because of his serious illness. He seems to be very clear about his unconscious state, so he simply bought a floor and set up only one isolation room.
Shi Yu watched his assistant enter many passwords along the way, and he realized how terrifying Alpha was during its susceptible period.
The elevator door had just opened when Shi Yu could clearly detect the pheromones belonging to Yun Linai that had not yet dissipated.
The answer from the pheromone seemed to be hanging in his mouth. He opened his mouth but still couldn't say anything.
In the distance, Qin Yue was leaning against the wall and discussing some countermeasures with the doctor, but when he saw Shi Yu, his eyes lit up for a moment, but when he remembered something, he became lost.
"Is his disorder serious?"
Shi Yu was asked to wear a medical mask, but Qin Yue didn't notice the paleness of his face.
Qin Yue sighed: "It's serious, this time is more serious than any other time."
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment: "How could it be..."
Become like this.
Qin Yue had an ugly expression on his face and wanted to say something, but he finally stopped talking. This hesitant attitude was all because of the Alpha in the isolation room who was still caring about others when he was about to die.
Yun Lin'ai regained some consciousness at that time. He said to Qin Yue: "If you tell Shi Yu, you will never be a doctor in this life."
Qin Yue would not believe what others said, but Yun Lin'ai could really do it.
But Yun Lin'ai refused to listen, repeatedly telling him not to get close to Shi Yu. Unless the Omega could finally marry him, Shi Yu would only exacerbate his condition. Qin Yue had also underestimated Shi Yu's importance in Yun Lin'ai's heart; he hadn't expected him to lose control of himself so much.
Qin Yue still didn't expect that Shi Yu was so talented in observing people. Perhaps he was destined to be a doctor.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
Qin Yue turned around and said, "No! How could it be?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted his words, and Shi Yu just looked at him calmly, his dark eyes like a deep pool. After a long time, he could see that the other party actually had the shadow of Yun Lin'ai.
His job might really be in jeopardy, Qin Yue suddenly thought.
Shi Yu nodded, the mask covering his already hoarse voice becoming even more muffled. "Pheromone disorder is a long-term disease, but if you don't stay in contact with Omegas for too long, you won't develop the disease..."
He paused after he finished speaking, "But a highly compatible Omega would accelerate the onset of his susceptible period, making the disorder more severe."
Qin Yue stopped talking completely. He had nothing more to say. Yun Lin'ai's illness had been completely understood by this colleague.
He quickly gave up on himself, thinking that losing a job was better than Yunlin'ai dying.
Qin Yue: "His current disorder and susceptibility period have occurred at the same time. These symptoms will last for seven days, or perhaps longer."
"We didn't know if he would be in so much pain that he would harm himself, or if he wouldn't last more than seven days."
The other party's cruel words stung Shi Yu, "The onset of the disorder will be very painful, and there is no cure..."
Qin Yue's words became less and less confident. "It's very likely that something unexpected will happen to him."
Shi Yu, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. He sat on the bench in the corridor and said calmly, "I understand."
Shi Yu followed Qin Yue's instructions as he wished, entered the double password for the isolation room, and walked in.
It will take seven days to enter here.
The room was pitch black, and Shi Yu stood there without daring to move. He didn't even know the direction of the bed, but he still felt his way along the wall to the corner.
The familiar pheromones became stronger and stronger, causing the glands on the back of his neck to continue to heat up.
He didn't feel the room was scary and eerie, but his eyes felt hot. After all, a month was enough for him to endure.
There was no sound in his ears, and Shi Yu could not feel whether there was anyone around him, but he could still clearly sense that Yun Lin'ai was here.
There was a sudden sharp pain in his shoulder, and he was held by a strong force. Shi Yu was pressed against the wall passively, and at this moment, the strong pheromone also rushed towards him——
Shi Yu was about to say something but was stopped by an irresistible kiss. The kiss was so deep that it took away all his breath.
Unlike the first kiss, Yun Lin'ai was not worried about anything like he was then. Now he only had wanton possession and a strong desire for Omega pheromones.
He was kissed by Yun Lin'ai for a long, long time, so long that he didn't know what time it was. He just fell into the Alpha's arms and he could hardly hold on any longer.
But later, he was cruelly separated from the outside world. Yun Lin'ai gently pushed the shaky Shi Yu away. Shi Yu froze on the spot, then leaned against the wall, swaying slightly. His glands were burning with pain. Yun Lin'ai's kiss and the pheromones triggered his fever period...
Shi Yu couldn't see Yun Lin'ai's figure clearly, nor could he see his red eyes. It was as if all his strength was used to steady himself, and his voice was so low that it was inaudible.
"Yunlin'ai, what on earth do you want to do..."
In the past, Yun Lin'ai would have stepped forward to wipe away the tears, but now his rationality was always fragmented. He was very afraid that he would have another attack and hurt the Omega who looked so frail.
His whole body was burning hot, and he was breathing heavily. Yun Lin'ai's palms were almost covered with blood marks from pinching his hands. He tried his best to ignore the snow lotus not far away. His body was staggering, and his voice had an abnormal tone due to his susceptible period.
"Get out. I don't need your help."
Even though Yun Lin'ai was sick, he regained some of his rationality in front of Shi Yu, but he didn't understand at all that Omega didn't need his so-called pity.
It is difficult to define right and wrong between them.
Shi Yu regained some strength, and he approached Yun Lin'ai regardless of anything based on his feeling. Seeing that the other party was still standing there without moving, he dragged his weak legs and groped for Yun Lin'ai's sleeve, then climbed up his arm and held Yun Lin'ai's cheeks with both hands.
Guessing intuitively that the other party was about to say some harsh and useless nonsense, Shi Yu quickly covered Yun Linai's mouth, with a weak hint of hatred in his voice.
"Shut up and kiss me."
