Chapter 16 But this is just a poison to quench thirst. Lying on the burning shallows, my heart...
Bai Ling is not an omega that grows up in a normal way. He had no experience in emotional communication with alphas, and he didn't know that this sentence was very much like a guardian's duty -
[Pay attention to O's physical condition responsibly and comfort her/let him express his true feelings]
Bai Ling didn't know how to answer for a moment. Tell me? What can I say... He is not good at describing his own condition. For him, there are generally only three options: "okay, able to move, and unable to move." But answering with "okay" is too perfunctory.
"Blood pressure is 110/65 mmHg, body fat is 9%, heart rate was 60 three minutes ago, and it was 100 after I received your call."
He read out the prohibited environment monitoring data seriously, as if he was reporting military affairs.
"After receiving my call..." Yu Chen was stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone. He couldn't help but hold his forehead and curl the corners of his mouth. His originally stagnant mood became cheerful. He replied softly:
"Wait a minute, let me take a note."
Bai Ling opened his lips in surprise...Ah, why, why are you suddenly so serious?
"Please report the data again." There was the sound of paper turning over in the communication.
Bai Ling pinched the sweat on his palms and said quickly: "You don't have to write it down specifically, the data is a mess... How about I send it to you directly?"
After saying this, he remained silent for a moment with a blank expression on his face. What was the point of sending physical data? It was so strange.
Yu Chen smiled slightly and received the message: "Then enter my contact number."
"My communicator is in the room. I'll go get it." Before Bai Ling could think about it, he turned around and prepared to go back to the dormitory, but was stopped by Yu Chen:
"Not the communicator, I mean, add it to your restriction ring."
Bai Ling raised his eyebrows in surprise and said subconsciously: "But the forbidden ring can only add one emergency contact, which is mine..."
guardian.
"Delete him." Yu Chen's tone was gentle, but his words were straightforward, like an order that could not be refused.
Bai Ling thought about it and realized that this forbidden ring was not originally his, and he didn’t recognize the guardian on it, so he decided to delete it.
As for his original guardian, Mr. D...
He and D were just online friends, and from his impression in his previous life, it seemed that they had never met each other. It was just that he needed the omega's permission to come and go freely, so he asked him to be his guardian.
But Mr. D is a very nice person and he probably won’t mind this.
He moved his fingers and input the number given by the mermaid, and the screen automatically popped up a prompt [Do you want to overwrite? 】, he nodded [Yes] without hesitation. The screen flashed for a moment, and the new call sidebar instantly and forcefully squeezed out the previous one, firmly occupying the entire and only list.
Yu Chen listened to him being quiet for a while, guessed that he was operating, and rubbed the ring on his hand, leaned forward slightly, and asked: "Is the coverage successful?"
"It's done. I also saw your name, Yu Chen..."
Bai Ling accidentally read out loud the [Emergency Contact] column. The cold and clear tone carried invisible radio waves and echoed gently in the gloomy study.
Yu Chen remained silent for a while in response to his obedience.
A slight tingling pain came from the shackles, reminding him not to have any unrealistic thoughts, but he moved his fingertips, suddenly bent sideways, and reached out to press the fingerprint lock on the heel of the shackles.
With a slight "drop" sound, the metal shackles slid down to the instep.
He pinched it and threw it under the table, then straightened his waist, replaced the communicator with headphones, clipped it on his right ear bone, and sank into the velvet chair back in a relaxed and enjoyable posture.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere was suitable on a snowy day, he let go of his restraint and wanted to indulge himself for once.
"I received the candy you put in the note, and I like it very much."
Bai Ling's heart beat faster for a moment. He felt that Yu Chen was a little different tonight. His tone was more tender and more addictive.
Even though he was wearing shorts and standing in the cool stairwell, shivering unconsciously from the cold wind that leaked through the window, this lazy voice lingered in his ears, and a warmth seemed to slowly burn from his earlobes to his entire body.
Bai Ling was guided by the strange commotion, and the words flowed out naturally from his lips: "As long as you like it, I will buy it next time when I get my salary. You were sleeping in the early morning, and I didn't want to disturb you, so I wrote a note."
Yu Chen slowly unbuttoned the top two buttons of his collar. The originally transparent and pale nails on his slender bony fingers gradually turned into a dangerous dark black. "If you want, you can come to the master bedroom to find me next time. It's okay."
Bai Ling felt that the effectiveness of the five A-type hormones he had just taken was drastically decreasing with the passing of time.
He began to feel his heartbeat quickening and his breathing becoming difficult, as if there was an invisible string tied to his limbs, trying to pull him towards an unknown abyss.
Bai Ling leaned his forehead against the glass window, thought hard about his proposal, and rejected it: "No."
"Why not?"
"Because... you'd better not do this. You should be on guard against trusting a stranger like me who you've only known for a week."
Yu Chen got the answer and smiled comfortably and happily. Who is the one who is not on guard?
The condensation on the window wet her soft white hair. Bai Ling asked in confusion, "Why are you laughing?"
"I want to ruffle the little feathers on your head."
My little feather? Bai Ling subconsciously reached out and touched it, and found that the crown feather was also stained with water droplets. He casually scratched his hair, but was suddenly overwhelmed by a strong sense of emptiness.
At that moment, he inexplicably imagined a big hand in his mind, and continued to enrich it with various details. Deep palm lines, clean finger gaps, each long finger has two thick protruding joints, the veins on the back of the hand are light blue, clinging to the milky white marble skin, like a river flowing on a snow-covered field. Every time this hand reached into his hair and gently rubbed it, he would feel as if he was washed by the river or the sea, lying on the burning shallows, thirsty and unbearable, as if addicted...
"You can't indulge me like this, it will make me develop bad habits." Bai Ling's eyelashes drooped, and he paced back and forth anxiously, and the hands hanging by his sides spasmed from time to time.
I really want to be...
Stop! It must be that I didn't take enough sex hormone A. I need to double the amount later.
Yu Chen slowed down his tone and asked, "What kind of...bad habits?"
Bai Ling sat on the stairs, twisting her fingers helplessly: "If you let the robot deliver things, it will take too long and I will wait at the door on time like the cuckoo in the old-fashioned clock. This is not appropriate."
Yu Chen couldn't help but stand up from the high chair, sliding his fingertips over the smooth and shiny edge of the nanmu table, as if he was caressing the contours of a flexible young body.
He walked slowly around the table, seemingly thinking, or hesitating. Finally, he stopped, slightly bent his knees and long legs, supported the edge of the table with his left hand with bulging veins, and leaned against the wide desk, with a tall figure and shining golden hair. He lowered his voice to seduce:
"Are you free now? I'd like to buy you a cup of tea and perhaps a cookie or two, the ones you gave me."
"What is tea? Instant?"
"No, it's roasted tea leaves. I pick them from the tea trees in the garden in the spring." Every sentence seemed to have a hook.
"You have a garden? Where is it?"
That was the bird's slightly surprised sound. Yu Chen raised the corners of his mouth. No bird would dislike lush flowers and plants.
"Behind the bath, there are night-scented flowers that bloom at night, and I can set up the tea table next to the flower pots."
Green vegetation is scarce on this artificial continent, and various flowers and plants from the ancient Earth period can only be seen in botanical gardens at high prices.
Bai Ling couldn't help but imagine the steaming hot tea and the warm floral scent, and couldn't help wanting to agree: "Okay..."
"Who's there!" Suddenly, a beam of light came down from above and shone on Bai Ling.
Bai Ling stood up vigilantly, raised his cold gray eyes and looked at the person standing high on the last step of the stairs.
It's the dormitory manager.
"It's so late, what are you doing sitting here?" The dormitory manager scanned him from head to toe with a flashlight with suspicion.
Bai Ling said calmly: "I came out to recite the O Code of Morals."
"You have a very positive attitude." There was a hint of sarcasm in these words.
The dormitory manager took a closer look at the small piece of iron in his hand. Xiao Chong is openly prohibited from using communication tools. Although they will not be expelled from the palace if caught, they will be punished by deducting points and their treatment will be reduced.
But what this omega has in his hand obviously doesn't look like a communicator.
The dormitory manager couldn't find any evidence against him, so he ordered, "Go back to your room immediately. Our great king is hosting a banquet for political celebrities and army commanders tonight. To prevent alphas from mistakenly entering the harem, all floor passages must be blocked, and this stairwell will be closed immediately."
"Okay, I understand."
Bai Ling agreed and watched the dormitory manager walk to the next floor with a portable flashlight. He quickly left the stairwell and even when he reached the door, he couldn't help but glance at the Pliers communicator.
There is no screen on it, and it doesn't indicate whether it's hung up or not. He put it to his ear without any hope and said, "Hello?"
"I'm here." Yu Chen responded softly.
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a strange feeling surged into his heart. It could be said to be a sense of security, or it could be said to be the indulgence of being patiently waited for when he thought he would be disappointed. "You haven't died yet..."
"Because you haven't said goodbye to me yet."
Bai Ling rubbed his cheeks unconsciously. He knew that Yu Chen must have heard the dormitory manager's reminder. He kicked the wall again and again: "I may not be able to get through... No, it seems that climbing over the wall may work. Wait for me to open the window and see if there is any ice on the outer wall--"
"Then come tomorrow night, okay?" Yu Chen discussed with him in a soothing tone, and at the same time, without making any movement, he fiercely dug a hole in the two-centimeter-thick table top.
"Climbing the wall is too dangerous. I don't want you to come wet." Yu Chen pulled his thumb out of the hole, put it to his lips and licked it lightly, tasting the sawdust and the sweet fishy blood from the wound.
But this is just a temporary solution...
He let the table go, no longer using it to vent his anger, and instead entered a command to open the window.
The wind and snow rushed in instantly, blowing his hair. The strong and violent pheromones in the room were swept away by the cold wind. The dark color on his fingertips faded away, and he became gentle and polite again.
He did not perfunctorily say "some other day", but sincerely gave a specific time:
"I'll wait for you here at six tomorrow night."
Six o'clock in the evening.
When Bai Ling heard this time, his blood suddenly flowed backwards and his heartbeat stopped for a second.
