Chapter 72
The two seemed to have returned to their previous busy stage. The new chairman of the alliance was an old general who had once taught Yun Lin'ai. He had just taken office and many matters were left to Yun Lin'ai to decide.
The South District Hospital was still overcrowded. Even with two new doctors in the department, the department director was too busy to handle it. Seeing Shi Yu coming back was like seeing a savior.
Shi Yu worked night shifts for several days in a row before he slowly had some patients assigned to him.
I thought I could go back after finishing the work, but unexpectedly, another patient came to the emergency room at night. Shi Yu hurriedly replied to the Alpha at home and ran out.
Yun Lin'ai received the message as soon as he got home. He walked into the baby's room and casually used two dolls to tease the two children who were having fun, just like teasing a cat.
"Daddy can't come back to accompany you tonight." Yun Lin'ai smiled slightly, took the milk powder that the aunt had just prepared, and planned to feed the two little kids who couldn't speak yet.
The two children are now able to crawl on the floor by themselves, resulting in toys scattered all over the house.
Yun Lin'ai squatted down and picked up a plush toy on the ground. When he felt the slightly wet touch on his fingertips, he immediately threw it into the washing machine with disgust.
After waiting until both children fell asleep, he asked his aunt to come and look after them. He changed into a casual jacket, took the car keys and went out.
It was already late at night when Shi Yu finished the operation. He hadn't eaten all night and his hypoglycemia started to relapse. He forced himself to finish talking with the patient's family and then completely relaxed.
"Doctor Shi, are you okay?" The nurse on duty stood up and found that the other party's face was pale. She couldn't help but ask worriedly.
Shi Yu's eyes turned white, and twinkling stars were swaying in front of him, making him even more dizzy.
"I'm fine." Shi Yu forced a smile at them.
He reached into the pocket of his coat and ate all the candy Yunlin Aifang had given him.
Shi Yu had no choice but to slowly return to his office. After closing the door, he finally didn't have to show his embarrassment in front of others. His legs softened and he slowly knelt down, holding onto the wall.
In less than a second, the door behind him closed and opened again. Shi Yu felt that he was picked up again after just a moment of fainting.
Smelling the familiar pheromone, Shi Yu was stunned: "...Why are you here?"
Yun Lin'ai had estimated the time long ago, but he didn't expect it to be just right. When he turned a corner, he saw the Omega's slightly swaying back.
He carried Shi Yu to the lounge inside and said, "It's a good thing I'm here."
He took out some candy from his coat pocket, tore off the wrapper, and fed the candy inside to Shi Yu.
"Are you still dizzy?" Yun Lin frowned and raised his hand to stroke Shi Yu's temples.
Shi Yu sat on the bed, closed his eyes, and felt the Alpha's cedar pheromone. He muttered, "I'm a little sleepy."
Yun Lin'ai sighed softly, took off his white coat, carefully removed his glasses, and then hugged him and lay down, "Sleep for a while."
Shi Yu hummed, "Just for a while. Remember to call me when you go back."
Yun Linai rubbed the sides of Shi Yu's eyes twice and said, "I understand."
Shi Yu fell asleep peacefully. He curled up on his side, his fingertips still on Yun Lin'ai's clothes. When he didn't find what he wanted to touch, he habitually searched upwards.
Yun Lin'ai offered his hand without hesitation, letting him hold it tightly.
He still couldn't bear to wake the person up, so after waiting for about half an hour, he carried Shi Yu out of the hospital building and took him home.
As soon as he touched the soft bed, Shi Yu woke up immediately: "I need to take a shower..."
Yun Lin'ai, who was about to change the man's pajamas, stopped in his tracks. He had no choice but to pick up Shi Yu, who was still dozing off.
"Can you eat now?"
Shi Yu nodded slowly.
Yun Linai stood up and placed all the clothes next to Shi Yu, then sat down again and told him, "Then you take a shower first. I'll go heat up a bowl of pumpkin porridge, okay?"
Alpha's question sobered Shi Yu up a bit. He looked up and saw Yun Lin'ai looking at him seriously under the warm light. "Okay."
The two of them each did their own thing. Shi Yu took a quick bath by himself. Before Yun Lin'ai came back, he went to the baby room to check on his two sleeping little sons.
As soon as he went out, he ran into Yun Linai who was holding a bowl. Alpha had no hands, so he raised his chin towards him and said, "Blow dry your hair."
Shi Yu obediently followed him into the master bedroom, watching him eagerly as he placed the bowl of pumpkin porridge on the coffee table, then turned around—
Shi Yu stood not far away and looked up at him innocently. Yun Lin'ai took a deep breath, walked towards him, lowered his head and kissed him. Shi Yu got what he wanted.
"Go have some porridge, I'll blow your dick." Yun Linai stroked the Omega's wet hair on the back of his head, then lowered his head to touch Shi Yu's cheek.
So Shi Yu sat down on the small sofa and ate the warm pumpkin porridge with peace of mind. The sound of a hair dryer came from behind him. He didn't turn around, but immediately felt the warmth on the back of his neck.
Even after getting married and having children, the two of them especially cherished the short time they had together. Even if they heard the child crying at night, Shi Yu would wake up with a frown while the aunt was coaxing the child, but Yun Lin'ai had already gotten up and gone to the next room.
But he quickly came back and hugged Shi Yu's already straightened upper body.
"They're asleep, so you sleep too."
The sound was very soft, yet it made people sleepy.
When they are together, they hope that time will pass more slowly, but when they are apart, they hope that time will pass more quickly.
Every time we part, we look forward to the next meeting.
Yun Lin Ai was invited to a command center abroad for a month.
On the day he left, Shi Yu was still holding the child in his arms, and the few of them were like three pieces of luggage that could not be taken away.
The assistant outside the door was urging him, but Yun Lin'ai didn't move. He raised his hand to cover the child's eyes and leaned over to peck the corner of Shi Yu's lips.
"Okay, Lieutenant Colonel Yun, they are urging you." Shi Yu moved back a few steps with a smile, bent down to put the child on the sofa, turned around and hugged Yun Lin'ai.
"I'll pick you up at the airport when you come back."
Yun Lin patted his lower back, the corners of his lips slightly curved: "No need, I'll go directly to the hospital to pick you up."
The two of them were only briefly affectionate for five minutes. The assistant was worried about missing the flight, so he pushed open the half-closed door anxiously, and Yun Lin'ai walked out with a gloomy face.
He said two words coldly: "Gone."
The assistant saw Colonel Yun get into the car, then rolled down the window and waved towards the villa. His expression instantly looked better.
He couldn't help but look out of curiosity, and found that there was someone in the floor-to-ceiling window of the villa.
Colonel Yun’s wife stood there, waving to Colonel Yun in the car.
The scene was so heartwarming that the assistant couldn't help but take a second look. Then a sinister voice came from the back seat: "Are you done? If you're not in a hurry to leave, I'll get out."
The assistant didn't dare to delay any longer, fearing that the other party would open the car door and run away to reunite with his wife. He immediately stepped on the accelerator, and the black sedan quickly disappeared at the gate of the villa.
......
Even when Yun Lin'ai is busy abroad, he will always make time to talk to Shi Yu. During his breaks, he will occasionally stroll around the bustling downtown area. If he sees some strange things on the street or in the mall, he will buy them and bring them to his lover at home.
Later, their calls became less frequent, as Shi Yu became increasingly busy. Yun Lin'ai would often receive Aunt Wang's early morning call that Shi Yu had returned home. Often at these times, he would ask Aunt Wang to prepare something easily digestible for them.
"Searching for nearby stores again?" Pei Rang leaned over and found a bunch of addresses in the other person's phone search bar.
Yun Linai nodded casually and waited absentmindedly for a reply from home.
It was noon abroad. Yun Lin'ai was sitting in the lobby of the reception center, waiting with Pei Rang for the chairman to come downstairs. The chat interface belonging to Shi Yu remained unanswered, so Yun Lin'ai frowned and reluctantly put away his phone.
The two men stood up and greeted the chairman to go to the rehearsal site at the command center.
......
Shi Yu was so tired that he fell asleep on the bed without even taking a shower. He woke up at dawn and saw the message from Yun Linai.
Rebellious Cat: I was too sleepy yesterday and fell asleep. Now I’m awake.
Yun Linai was standing at the control center. He noticed the vibration of his phone in his pocket and quickly took it out to take a look.
"Lin Ai, what do you think?" The chairman turned around and caught Colonel Yun playing with his cell phone.
Yun Linai raised his head, glanced at the plan for the laboratory that was about to be built in the southern part of the country, put away his phone, and replied to the question raised by the chairman.
"The confidential laboratory involves the personal safety of the participants, so we need to discuss this with the various institutes."
The new chairman has always been optimistic about Yun Lin'ai. What the other party said was the same as what he thought. After letting him go, he turned around and continued to talk with the planner opposite.
The first one to show off: Why did you wake up so early?
Yun Lin'ai took out his cell phone again to reply to Shi Yu, playing with his cell phone openly. He glanced at Shi Yu's schedule and saw that this day was his day off.
Rebellious Cat: The two children woke up and went to sleep after being coaxed for a while.
Yun Linai felt relieved, replied simply and put away his phone.
"Are you missing your wife too much?" Pei Rang came over and asked curiously.
Yun Linai: "Any comments?"
Pei Rang couldn't help but ask, "How do you manage to get along so well?"
Yun Linai gave him a look that looked like he was stupid.
"Is this difficult?"
Pei Rang turned around and thought. After all, these two had been separated for six years. They were eager to be together when they met, so why would they have the energy to argue? But why was it that even his apology to that person was useless? What was the problem?
Pei Rang's tangled expression was seen clearly by Yun Lin'ai. After he asked another question, he said, "So you two have never had a fight?"
Yun Lin'ai answered him, "Arguing is because you were wrong from the beginning. If you want to avoid it, then never say anything that hurts the other person."
Pei Rang seemed to be lost in thought, and went to ponder on his own.
Yun Lin'ai ignored him. After the meeting, he had to continue accompanying the chairman to the next inspection site. He had not had much rest in the past few days.
As the month is coming to an end, there are still many things piling up abroad.
Shi Yu has been sleep deprived these days and has developed dark circles under his eyes. It was fine when he covered them with glasses, but as soon as he took them off, even Aunt Wang noticed something was wrong.
"Why do you look so bad?"
Shi Yu smiled and said, "The hospital is too busy. I'll be fine after a good sleep."
The hand that picked up the chopsticks paused, and Shi Yu looked up and told Aunt Wang: "Don't tell him about such trivial matters, he is also very busy."
Aunt Wang was helpless. Why did he keep it a secret from both sides? "I know. Then you have to take care of your body. I am still scared when you gave birth that day."
Shi Yu smiled and comforted her: "Yes, don't worry."
Shi Yu returned to the room and received a message from Yun Linai.
The first one to show off: My return time has been delayed, sorry.
Shi Yu paused and replied: It’s okay, be careful.
The two chatted briefly for a while. Shi Yu took a few photos of his son for him, dried his hair, and lay down on the bed. In the dark, he rubbed Alpha's pillow and fell into a deep sleep.
The news of the chairman's return was kept confidential. Except for Yun Lin'ai, everyone else only learned about the departure on the same day.
Before the plane took off, Yun Lin'ai didn't have time to send Shi Yu a message.
Shi Yu didn't know that Yun Lin'ai was already on his way back. He was currently sitting in the director's office, planning the evaluation meeting he would attend soon.
"The hospital will send several representatives over. Dr. Jiang just gave birth and hasn't returned to work yet, so we all recommend you to go." The director said kindly and handed the meeting report to Shi Yu.
"It's not far from your house. You can go back and clean up in the afternoon."
Shi Yu glanced at the location of the conference center and agreed.
So in the evening, after Shi Yu had a brief talk with Aunt Wang, he drove with his colleagues to a club very close to home.
The colleague got out of the car and talked to him: "What a coincidence, it's only a ten-minute walk from your house."
Shi Yu had just lowered his head to send a message, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but smile: "What a coincidence! Maybe the person who arranged the meeting knows my home address."
The conference center was very large, and the two of them spent a long time just looking for the conference hall. They finally found the entrance where the most people gathered.
There were many people in the industry. Shi Yu suddenly stopped and saw the man standing at the door in a daze.
A colleague asked him curiously, "What's wrong?"
He followed Shi Yu's gaze and saw that there were about dozens of people in the industry, all of whom were influential figures, so it was reasonable to let the person at the door come to greet them.
It’s just that his aura is stronger than anyone else’s, and people don’t want to leave after taking a look at him.
His dark grey formal attire made his sharp edges seem softer under the warm yellow light cast from the conference room. He shook hands with every distinguished guest present and didn't even get a chance to grab his phone.
Shi Yu looked for a while and walked over, and found that the other party was lowering his head to open his mobile phone, and the chat interface was with him.
Then he noticed that Alpha paused and turned around after reading the message.
Shi Yu stood in front of him, smiled, and extended his free right hand, "Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Yun."
When Yun Lin'ai saw the location sent by Shi Yu, he knew that he had also arrived. The two stood in the light, and Yun Lin'ai's seriousness disappeared. His voice was polite and gentle: "Doctor Shi, please take a seat."
When shaking hands, Yun Lin'ai deliberately scratched the other person's palm with his fingertips and then quickly released his hand.
Shi Yu was the first to walk into the conference hall and found that the seats were very far apart, especially the seats of several doctors, which were two corridors away from the alliance.
He compared several seats, turned around and walked to the last row of the conference room, and sat down without saying a word.
Pei Rang was always responsible for arranging the hospital's guest invitations. Yun Lin'ai was only responsible for arranging the meeting venue and agenda. After taking a quick look around and settling on his position, he arranged for the chairman to take a seat and asked the host to announce the start of the evaluation meeting.
The lights gradually dimmed, the projection screen began to play, and the chairman's voice gradually became louder. Shi Yu listened carefully, occasionally listening to the questions raised by several speakers, and lowered his head from time to time to take notes. During the previous agenda, everyone seemed to be sitting in their seats peacefully.
At the beginning of the second half, Yun Linai and his teammates started to sit around randomly. The chairman pretended not to notice and continued to announce the next part of the meeting.
Shi Yu was writing down something seriously in his notebook when he caught a glimpse of someone sitting next to him in the darkness.
He knew who it was without even looking. Shi Yu put down his pen, didn't move his chair, but moved his body a little closer.
"Are you tired?" Shi Yu asked him.
A voice beside me said, "It's okay."
Shi Yu didn't say anything, picked up the pen and started taking notes again. His free left hand moved to his knee beside him and squeezed it.
Yun Lin'ai kept looking at the big screen, raised his hand to cover the back of Shi Yu's hand, and held it in his palm.
"A bit cold," he commented.
Shi Yu didn't look at him. "It's probably because of the air conditioning."
The two of them talked very little. Yun Lin'ai quietly lowered his head and fiddled with his phone before turning it off. Shi Yu soon felt that the temperature of the seat where he was sitting had risen a little.
By the evening, all the discussions and evaluations of the meeting were finalized, and the chairman left first. Yun Lin'ai had no choice but to let Shi Yu wait for him while he prepared to send him back to his residence.
The new chairman knew what he was thinking. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, you don't have to send me off. I'm not legless. Go back and stay with your Omega."
So Shi Yu saw Alpha returning within five minutes.
"go home."
Shi Yu's car was parked outside, but the two of them were so excited that they decided to walk back. The short journey seemed so beautiful to them. Yun Lin'ai held his hand and walked slowly.
"Did you choose the meeting address?"
Yun Lin'ai admitted, "I wanted to come straight back to see you after the meeting."
Who would have thought that we would meet in advance.
Shi Yu's lips curled slightly, and he held his hand tightly again. When passing by the beach, he stopped and looked up to ask Yun Lin'ai: "Can we take a ride on the yacht for a while?"
Yun Linai lowered his head, wiped the dark circles under his eyes and asked, "Are you not sleepy anymore?"
Shi Yu shook his head, a look of longing in his eyes.
Yun Lin'ai agreed to his request and took him on the new yacht given by Shen Shaowei. It was surprisingly easy to drive, and he raised an eyebrow.
The sea breeze was not strong tonight, and they did the same as they did six years ago, not stopping until they could no longer see the shore.
The seascape at night was always a bit depressing. With no lights around, the view was limited, with only the distant bridge illuminating with a faint, dazzling light. Yun Lin'ai frowned, not daring to let Shi Yu stand on the deck.
Fortunately, the yacht given by Shen Shaowei had its own light strip, which made the sea surface shimmer with ripples.
Shi Yu just stood at the cabin door, quietly listening to the sound of the sea.
"It's winter again." Yun Lin'ai put on a shawl behind him. Seeing Shi Yu's thoughts, he took people to the deck.
Shi Yu turned around and asked: "Does this count as fulfilling the agreement?"
Yun Lin'ai lowered his eyes and was stunned for a moment. He remembered Shi Yu's promise to take him to see the sea six years ago. He couldn't help but chuckle, "Forget it."
Shi Yu pursed his lips, as if some things were a little embarrassing for him to do.
He said unnaturally, "That requires an invitation."
Yun Linai didn't understand. "What invitation?"
He saw Shi Yu turn around and point his finger at the pitch-black sky not far away. He said it was an invitation letter.
There was a loud bang and flames flew everywhere.
Just as he finished speaking, a loud explosion was heard in the sky.
Yun Lin'ai subconsciously covered Shi Yu's ears, but at the moment his body tensed up, he relaxed and looked up at the fireworks exploding not far away.
Colorful fireworks filled the eyes of the two people, but only Yun Lin'ai was looking at the fireworks, while Shi Yu was looking at him expectantly.
Yun Linai couldn't help but hold Shi Yu's shoulders tightly, "Is this the invitation letter you prepared?"
In a few seconds, the fireworks gathered into the shape of an envelope, dragging a long glowing tail, then scattered and fell into the sea, like a star shower rushing from the depths of the universe. At the highest point, a blue firework slowly unfolded, growing and spreading, like Shi Yu's surging heart.
The entire sea and sky were illuminated.
The yacht was their road to the stars. Shi Yu replied tremblingly, "I want you to remember it forever."
A piece of paper or a message might not be enough to make Yun Linai feel so deeply. The fireworks lasted for half an hour. I wonder how long Shi Yu prepared for them to bloom exactly at the scheduled time.
"I remember that."
Shi Yu was stunned. When the cold touch touched his warm cheek, he looked up at the sky and said, "It's snowing."
This is the first snow in the South District this year.
Yun Lin'ai was touched and reached out to brush away the snowflakes on the other person's hair. The fireworks called invitation letters were slowly delivered. He bent down and kissed him, letting the snow fall on his invitation.
The coastline was indeed not far away, they all saw it.
