Chapter 43
Shi Yu's face was pale, and he listened quietly to the conversation between the doctors. He had no objection and just accepted it calmly.
The chairman was unhappy. "You've given me so many options. I'm a doctor, and you're a doctor? Just tell me which method is the fastest and best!"
"Old man, it's not possible to be perfect. We have to treat the patient based on his actual condition." The doctors were helpless and couldn't understand the chairman's intentions. He had to follow the meeting even though it was just an initial conversation, as if he was afraid that the Omega next to him wouldn't get a suitable treatment plan.
The doctors around were all surprised that this Omega of unknown origin was valued so much by the chairman.
Shi Yu couldn't get used to the many looks he received. He spoke uncomfortably, "I will cooperate with the treatment. It doesn't matter how long it takes."
After all, he also wanted to recover his health before Yun Lin'ai came back.
However, he did not expect that Alpha would actually return within the promised date, even though this was still too slow for Shi Yu who was undergoing psychological treatment.
After his glands stabilized, he was taken back to the manor by Yunzhi. Just as he had imagined, nothing in the manor had changed. The flowers in the garden were more luxuriant than in winter, and the sky seen from under the eaves of the east building was still as blue.
"This is the young master's room." The butler took him to the east building.
Yun Lin'ai's room was spotlessly clean, and even his pheromones were very rare.
"Captain Yun..." Shi Yu paused, and suddenly felt that this title seemed inexplicably unfamiliar.
"Yun Lin'ai, hasn't he ever come back?"
The housekeeper smiled amiably. "He hasn't been back much in the past six years. Doctor Qin said he rarely even returns home."
Shi Yu paused for a moment and pretended nothing had happened.
"However," the butler paused, and waited until Shi Yu turned around and looked at him while standing at the door before speaking, "The young master asked me to help take care of the flowers in his house."
"Flowers?" Shi Yu couldn't remember what flowers the other party was talking about.
Memories suddenly came flooding back like a winter tide. That night at the beach villa, he asked Yun Lin'ai what flowers they planted in the yard. This question has never been answered.
"I understand. I'll go back and check it out." Shi Yu smiled and didn't ask the housekeeper about the flowers.
After tossing and turning all day, Shi Yu was already dizzy. After washing up, his body was covered with the scent of apples. There was no Yun Lin'ai's pheromones on the sheets, but he could smell the jasmine in the vase beside the bed.
Shi Yu turned over a few times, but still couldn't help but go to the closet with a mess of hair, took out a shirt that didn't belong to him, and returned to bed to continue sleeping.
I had no dreams that night.
A few days later, after the doctors had conducted a comprehensive diagnostic assessment of Shi Yu, he began the first phase of treatment. Yun Zhi waved his hand and had a large room in the manor specially cleared out to serve as a psychotherapy room.
He even thought that Shi Yu might have a shadow over this room, so he directly arranged the treatment room in the West Building, which was far away from the East Building.
Shi Yu found it very difficult to do just a few weeks of simple breathing training. It was a short time but it felt like a day had passed. The doctor told him that he would start desensitization training next week and it would last for two months.
I don’t know if it was because the doctor had informed me in advance, but Shi Yu was very emotionally unstable after leaving the psychology room.
"Doctor Shi?"
Not many people here would call Shi Yu by this name, only Qin Yue would call him that.
Shi Yu smiled when he saw the person coming, "Doctor Qin, long time no see."
Qin Yue had just returned from a business trip, and happened to be checking the old man's health that day. Before that, he also knew that Yun Lin'ai had found Shi Yu, so it was not surprising to meet him here.
"I haven't congratulated you yet on becoming a doctor." Qin Yue said sincerely.
"Thanks."
Shi Yu and Qin Yue walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor of the main hall, from where they could see the garden in the backyard.
Qin Yue didn't know that Shi Yu was sick. He thought Yun Lin'ai had returned, and they talked it out.
He sighed, "Time flies by so fast. You guys are finally getting your reward after all the hardship. You don't know that Captain Yun was like a possessed ghost a few years ago, fighting his father to the death, almost ruining his career."
Shi Yu was surprised for a moment, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
Qin Yue didn't notice his expression, and just kept talking about the past. "He scared me to death that day. After I told him you were missing, he ignored his superiors at the border and drove back to look for you."
"This kid is truly blessed to have survived such a disaster. He was in such a serious car accident, but he still looks fine."
Shi Yu's whole body suddenly shook physically, and he felt the discomfort in his heart. "Car accident?"
This short sentence made Qin Yue realize that something was wrong with the other party. He turned around and saw Shi Yu's face was as pale as paper.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Qin Yue lowered his voice and looked around, "Is Yun Lin'ai not here?"
"He...he hasn't come back yet..." Shi Yu replied in a low voice.
"Can you tell me more?"
It turned out that he knew nothing... Qin Yue regretted that he had spoken so quickly. This time, his position as a doctor might really be in jeopardy.
"Well, I have something else to do."
Qin Yue faked a smile, but after seeing Shi Yu's eager eyes, he hesitated again.
"The car accident broke his right leg. You know...his father broke that leg when he was a kid, so it hurts on rainy winter days."
Shi Yu even forgot to breathe, his eyes filled with endless confusion. He spoke with difficulty, "I don't know."
He knew nothing. Yun Lin'ai had never told him a word.
Qin Yue slapped himself quickly, "Why don't you just let me go?"
Shi Yu didn't let Qin Yue say too much. After seeing him off, he walked towards the bedroom in the east building in a daze. He didn't take his cell phone with him in the treatment room just now, but when he picked it up, he saw a call record from the northwest.
Guessing it was Yun Lin'ai, Shi Yu called back. The call was first transferred to the command center and then to Yun Lin'ai's communicator.
"How was the treatment today?" was the first sentence Yun Lin'ai asked when he called.
"Pretty good." Shi Yu gave the same answer as usual.
The two chatted for a while and seemed to have a lot to say, but they eventually stopped because Yun Lin'ai was busy with tasks.
Before hanging up, Shi Yu asked Yun Linai blankly, "Captain Yun, do you feel pain when it rains?"
Yun Lin'ai paused for a few seconds on the other end after hearing this. Shi Yu could still hear the noisy urging voices from the other end, but the phone was never hung up.
Just when Shi Yu was about to let him hang up, Yun Linai said on the other end, "It didn't hurt before, but now it hurts because of you."
"So get well soon, Hour."
I don’t know if it was because of hope or desire in Yun Lin’s tone, but even if Shi Yu resisted desensitization training, he would listen to the doctor’s words obediently.
What happened during the thunderstorm pierced Shi Yu's nerves like needles. Lying on the recliner in the treatment room, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his trembling hands revealed everything to the doctor. His lungs kept rising and falling because they could not get enough air.
The psychologist recorded his reaction every second and adjusted the next treatment plan based on his reaction.
Shi Yu fell asleep painfully on the recliner, but because he had too many nightmares, his sleep was intermittent, and the doctor cruelly woke him up.
"Mr. Shi, today's treatment ends here. Thank you for your hard work."
Shi Yu opened his eyes without any reaction, and the doctor considerately waited for him to recover. After training, patients often had weakness in their hands and feet, and difficulty in distinguishing between reality and dreams, which was also very common in the eyes of doctors.
However, Shi Yu was not used to others waiting for him, so as soon as his hands and feet showed some reaction, he stood up and prepared to send the doctor.
As a result, he underestimated his own strength and fell to the ground as soon as he stood up.
"Mr. Shi!"
"Oh... I'm fine..." Shi Yu was completely awake after the fall. He ignored the pain from his knee and stabilized his body. It was obvious that he had not fully recovered his consciousness yet.
After waking up from the fall, Shi Yu felt a strange sensation in his body. He limped and moved his body, politely escorting the doctor to the door. After the doctor left, he stood there in a daze.
The housekeeper came over and asked worriedly, and he came back to his senses, "I'm fine, really."
Shi Yu returned to the East Building, and his pace suddenly became faster. It was difficult for him not to recall the details of his dream.
In the dream, the second after he lost his child, a single image flashed by, and he shuddered, not daring to recall it. Because in that unrealistic dream, he saw Yun Linai die.
With his back to him, he died.
......
"Shi Yu." A cold voice with a rare hint of gentleness came into Shi Yu's ears, and half of his body became numb.
Yun Lin'ai called him back to his senses on the other end of the phone, and Shi Yu finally felt sober, like a refreshing rain after rain.
"What's wrong?" Yun Lin'ai saw that Shi Yu had been silent and thought something had happened.
Shi Yu opened his mouth and wanted to say it was okay, but when these two words came out of Shi Yu's mouth, he no longer gained any trust from Yun Linai.
After talking in a circle, Shi Yu asked him calmly, "There's no pheromone on the shirt anymore."
Sure enough, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds. Yun Linai thought carefully before answering, "There should be more at the beach villa. I'll have someone go get it."
Shi Yu did not refuse, but agreed half-seriously, because he really wanted to smell Yun Linai's pheromones.
"Are you busy? If so, I won't disturb you." Shi Yu originally made this call to confirm his safety. Now that he was relieved, he didn't plan to disturb Yun Linai's work.
"Don't disturb me." Yun Lin'ai's expression, which had almost collapsed just now, returned to calm. Under the curious gazes of his teammates, he was as calm as water.
"I just finished a meeting and everything is fine now." Yun Lin'ai faced their gazes, stood up and walked out.
The conference room, which had suddenly become quiet just now, suddenly became abuzz with chatter, completely ignoring the fact that Yun Linai had good hearing and could hear their gossip.
"No, why do you and the captain have lovers but we don't?" Pei Rang's cold and handsome face cracked a little.
Lu Yichuan was busy recording something. He closed the meeting minutes book and pulled out a small, palm-sized notebook from his pocket. "You're talking about me."
Only after he finished writing did he have time to look up and show these people what he had written.
"Because I am blessed and Team Yun is lucky."
Pei Rang snatched Lu Yichuan's diary and muttered softly, "What are you dithering about?"
He read carefully: "The weather is fine, Jiang Kuo cooked today..."
Pei Rang couldn't continue reading. He threw the tattered notebook back to the other party and stood up without changing his expression. "Team Two, assemble. We have extra training today!"
Until he left, he hadn't realized that today was actually a cloudy day. It turned out that the weather in this guy's diary was based on his mood.
Pei Rang gritted his teeth, ran to Lu Yichuang's room soaking wet, and accidentally rolled on the bed.
Not only did Lu Yichuan thank him for giving him an excuse to stay in Jiang Kuo's dormitory for a night, he also boasted about it in front of the others. Pei Rang was so angry that his teeth itched. He poked Lu Yan with his arm and said, "Go get your brother."
Lu Yan was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and said with a smile: "I dare not."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Rang stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yichuang's neck. The two of them were playing and fighting like children, and they seemed to have almost forgotten that there was a mission waiting for them. The old general walked out with his hands behind his back, and stood next to Lu Yan without paying much attention to him. He just looked at the two people in front of him and laughed at them.
The two men didn't notice that there was someone behind them. After the fight, they hugged each other and walked away. The old general didn't get angry with them when he saw this.
"It's still good to be young..."
