Pheromones filled the room, and for a moment Lu Zhao could not feel anything but could smell Bai Li's scent.

He was led by Bai Li's hand into a patch of light, and his response was clumsy and honest, his imitation was stumbling and not very good, but he could hear Bai Li's slightly restrained breathing.

Foreheads pressed against each other, and after adapting to the dimness of the room, they could see each other's eyes clearly.

In each other's eyes, there was only their own outline, and in the other's eyes, they were wolfish and fragile, not glorious, and not strong.

But the eyes that reflected themselves were full of tenderness.

After the dizziness, their foreheads were still pressed together, and Lu Zhao closed his eyes slightly, feeling Bai Li rubbing his nose intimately. He didn't say a word, but kissed Bai Li's lips.

No one spoke, and they each calmed their breathing.

After a while, Bai Li rubbed his head against Lu Zhao, and his voice was still hoarse: "Bedside."

Lu Zhao said "hmm" after a few seconds, looked sideways, and took a few pieces of paper from the bedside to wipe their hands.

Fortunately, his clothes were not messed up. Lu Zhao turned over and lay on the bed, lying side by side with Bai Li, looking at the ceiling above his head.

He had come to his senses by now, his thoughts were back in place, and his brain was working. He was not embarrassed, but he was not born to be good at speaking first, not to mention after doing that kind of thing.

Young Master Bai, who was lying on the side, threw the paper ball away and lay on the bed in a daze. After a while, he suddenly said, "Fortunately, it's pitch black now."

Lu Zhao didn't understand and turned his head to look at him: "What?"

"It's pitch black and I can't see your face clearly," Bai Li said, "My face is so hot."

Lu Zhao took two seconds to react and understand. Bai Li is usually thick-skinned, but sometimes he is as thin as paper. When he gets red, his whole face gets red. Isn't that hot?

Unable to hold back a laugh, Lu Zhao touched Bai Li's face with the back of his hand. It was quite hot. He pinched the tip of Bai Li's ear, which was also hot.

Bai Li was pinched on the tip of his ear, not only did he not dodge, but he also shamelessly moved his head towards Lu Zhao again.

Both of them were very relaxed. Lu Zhao asked, "Why do you always blush?" You really don't do this when you're surfing the Internet.

"How would I know? If I knew, I would have controlled it a long time ago," Bai Li said lazily with his eyes closed. "It's hereditary, my grandfather always blushes."

Lu Zhao couldn't imagine it: "Grandpa Bai?"

"Ah," Bai Li said casually, "When I was a kid, I locked him in the bathroom, or drove his car into a tree, hey, his face was as red as if it was swollen."

"..." Lu Zhao almost couldn't finish the words, "Then his mother must have been mad at you."

Bai Li turned his head to the side, very arrogant, and refused to admit: "Anyway, it's hereditary."

In fact, Lu Zhao still believed that there was a genetic component. After all, Mrs. Tang was also like this, and she would blush quickly when she was shy.

I had never noticed it before, but after I met Bai Li and then Mrs. Tang, Lu Zhao realized that the two people did have similarities.

Lu Zhao was lying on the bed, thinking of Mrs. Tang's words, "You still have to have an heir."

"Bai Li," Lu Zhao looked at the ceiling and said softly, "The Bai family will decline."

For a family without an heir, it is an inevitable result to go to the end. The former glory will return to dust, and in another ten or twenty years, it will become an insignificant symbol in people's memory.

Bai Li turned his head and was silent for a few seconds: "Yes."

The affirmative answer made Lu Zhao's heart sink. He closed his eyes, opened and closed his lips several times, and finally said: "Actually, you can consider..."

"I don't plan to adopt." Bai Li said lightly, "Really, if you keep thinking about these messy things, I won't be happy."

Lu Zhao felt that Bai Li's tone of "I won't be happy" was a bit angry. He was in an unstable mood today, and the appearance of Master Bai was a bit unbearable. Lu Zhao turned his head and asked: "Why?" Bai

Li looked at the ceiling without saying a word. After a long time, he spoke, but what he said seemed unrelated: "Actually, the old man didn't want to raise an heir at all."

Lu Zhao was stunned.

"His partner has always been in poor health, and after giving birth to Bai Ying, he couldn't have any more children." Bai Li moved closer to Lu Zhao, so he didn't need to speak too loudly. "In fact, at that time, he didn't care much about whether the family should find someone to inherit. If he didn't think it would benefit the Tang family, he wouldn't have thought of changing the surname of the child born by Bai Ying. So from his generation on, the Bai family was doomed to decline."

This was already a private matter of the family, and Lu Zhao had never heard of it. He only knew that the fact that Bai Li was taken away by Old Master Bai was a big deal, and it was widely spread in the noble circle.

Lu Zhao Dao: "I think Master Bai sees you very much."

"Also, not." Bai Li smiled. "He valued me because we were relatives, not because I was a heir."

Lu Zhao was silent, and he remembered the saying that Bai Li said to Bai Ying said- "I don't need a family."

He murmured to himself, "After the death of his partner, he doesn't pay attention to anyone."

Because the heaviest person no longer exists, no one can be equal to that person's weight.

The

corner of the mouth was tilted.

"Grandpa's patience and the greatest affection in his life were all given to his partner, and there was not much left for others," Bai Li exhaled, "so when his partner died, he took away most of his affection. Sometimes I feel that he loved me and Bai Ying because we were witnesses of his affection with his partner."

Grandpa Bai's face became clear in Bai Li's memory.

Many times he was just drinking silently in the bedroom. Bai Li secretly looked inside through the crack in the door. Grandpa Bai was sitting on the sofa, like a collapsed mountain.

Today, he suddenly understood Grandpa Bai in those years.

"He loves every part of his partner," Bai Li thought, "He loves everything about his partner, including Bai Ying and me. He is emotionally deficient, and this has consumed everything he has."

Lu Zhao closed his eyes and listened to Bai Li's voice. The outline of the military myth gradually became distorted and blurred, and no fixed shape could be found.

Some people's emotions are silent, like a calm pool of water. You can only know how deep it is when you jump in.

This feeling was neither violent nor heart-wrenching. It happened naturally and ended quietly, but it took away the focus of Mr. Bai's life.

"Lu Zhao," Bai Li said, "I am very lacking in emotions."

He turned his head to look at Lu Zhao, and the two looked at each other. Bai Li's eyes were calm and gentle.

For a moment, Lu Zhao just felt sad.

He did not feel relieved or relieved because of Bai Li's answers. He just found that Bai Li was like a drill. He could only drill one point in his life, and drill down hard, regardless of what was below. If the drill broke or died, he would accept his fate and would not consider changing places at all.

Bai Li gave Lu Zhao the opportunity to drill only once.

Even regardless of what Lu Zhao could give him.

He didn't need an heir, he only needed Lu Zhao and everything related to Lu Zhao. He was no longer sure if he could devote enough patience and emotion to the rest of the people and things.

Lu Zhao turned over and lay on his side, hugging Bai Li. He smelled the chocolate scent, buried his head in Bai Li's neck, and said in a hoarse voice: "You are really sick."

Bai Li said: "Hey, why are you swearing?" Lu

Zhao said: "Thank you."

Bai Li didn't say anything.

Lu Zhao said again: "Thank you."

"Well," Bai Li said, "coax Li Li more."

Lu Zhao laughed a few times and hugged him a little tighter.

The night was very long, and it seemed that even the passage of time was no longer important in the universe. They each closed their eyes, but they were not very sleepy.

After a while, Lu Zhao heard Bai Li speak: "Xianhua, what do you think?"

Lu Zhao didn't quite understand: "Huh?"

"Have you ever thought about..." Bai Li considered the wording, "Have you had your own children?"

This question made Lu Zhao stunned for a while, and he was confused for a moment.

After so many years of experience, Lu Zhao sometimes forgot that he was an omega. When the optical computer matched Bai Li's name, he realized that he had to get married.

Bai Li felt Lu Zhao's head shake slightly, and Lu Zhao said: "No."

Bai Li was not surprised by this answer. Lu Zhao's life was very simple. Even in the original book, he didn't care about everything around him. This once made Bai Li in the original book feel angry and ignored.

Bai Li said "Oh": "Then I will be content to be a spendthrift."

Lu Zhao didn't understand: "What?"

"Let's just eat, drink and enjoy ourselves," Bai Li said righteously, "Anyway, we don't have to leave any assets for anything. We should just enjoy ourselves first."

This topic was too broad and Lu Zhao felt that his brain could not keep up with Bai Li's thinking.

Then Master Bai became interested and started chattering: "Hey, let me tell you, I've long wanted to find a place to store the combat simulation peripherals I stored. There are also several mecha models, all gathering dust in the warehouse. I'll find a house outside and look at them three times a day."

"..." Lu Zhao couldn't respond, "...Oh."

"Or else let's go out for a walk," Bai Li said excitedly, gesticulating twice, "I guess we won't be able to make it this year, so let's go to those popular satellite stars during the rainy season next year. I heard that the scenery there is pretty good in this season."

Lu Zhao felt unfamiliar when he heard Bai Li mention the names of several satellite stars. He didn't know about the Bai Da Shao Ye's life of eating, drinking and having fun, but just listening to Bai Li's chatter was quite amusing. Lu Zhao said, "Yeah."

"So, we still have a lot of free time," Bai Li said with his head tilted, "Why don't you play the simulated battle, it's quite interesting, we can go to watch the offline competition together next time."

Lu Zhao didn't refuse: "Yeah."

Bai Li added, "Don't bring Huo Cun and Situ." Those two grandsons are too pitfalls.

"Yeah." Lu Zhao replied, unable to help but feel funny, hugging Bai Li and laughing.

The vibration of the chest can easily affect another person, Bai Li also laughed, this kind of aimless filling in the future schedule is not serious, but neither of them found it boring.

By the time they realized it was getting late, the conversation had already been dragged on for eight hundred miles.

Pajamas and other items were prepared in the room. Lu Zhao's military uniform and Bai Li's suit were a little wrinkled, so they had to take them off and give them to the robot butler in the room to fix.

Bai Li came out of the bathroom, stroking his hair that had just been blow-dried. Lu Zhao was already half lying on the bed, browsing the military website on his personal terminal.

"Ahem," Bai Li just remembered an important question at this moment, "Well..."

Lu Zhao raised his head and glanced at him, and saw that Master Bai was glancing left and right, feeling quite guilty. His lips moved, but he didn't say anything. He moved to the other side and made room for Bai Li.

Although this room is quite big, the sofa is not as comfortable as the one at home. Of course, even if it is more comfortable than at home, Bai Li feels that he does not have enough energy to sleep on the sofa today.

In fact, he has struggled with this problem, but for some reason, Bai Li did not ask the cruise company to prepare two suites.

Master Bai feels that he has done something shameful secretly, but he pretends to be righteous and confident that he does not know. He gave himself an opportunity and allowed himself to get closer to Lu Zhao in this opportunity.

But he had to pretend on the surface: "Oh, this is not good."

"Well," Lu Zhao continued to browse the web without looking up, "Not good."

Just after he finished speaking, he felt the other side of the bed suddenly sink, and Bai Li jumped onto the bed and crawled into the quilt. After several seconds, he finally pushed his head out, revealing half of his face, and said pitifully: "Xianhua, sleeping on the sofa will make your legs hurt."

The night light on the wall was on, and there was a small warm light in the room, which made Bai Li's half-red face look a little lazy and soft.

Lu Zhao wanted to laugh, but he held it back. He raised his hand to pinch Bai Li's red ear tips, but Bai Li pulled the quilt up to block it. He had no choice but to rub Bai Li's dog head and feel the soft hair brushing against his palm.

Bai Li under the quilt felt the shiver spread all over his body along with the fever. He was indeed not feeling right today. Just now... he couldn't restrain himself from touching Lu Zhao's glands several times. That was the instinct of an alpha, and he almost had to follow it.

Bai Li heard Lu Zhao turn off the night light on the wall, and then put the personal terminal aside and lay down. Young Master Bai took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, then he pulled off the quilt covering his head, and turned his face to meet Lu Zhao's half-closed eyes.

Major General Lu was lying on his side looking at Bai Li, and he caught him red-handed.

"Bai Li," Lu Zhao looked into Bai Li's eyes in the dark, "Is your face still red?"

Bai Li didn't know how to answer this question. He still felt his cheeks were hot, so he could only say "hmm".

Thinking about it carefully, it was quite embarrassing. After all, the image of an alpha has never included "always blushing". But Bai Li couldn't help it. He had no way to deal with Lu Zhao. The straight ball made him dizzy.

Lu Zhao asked again: "Is it because of me?"

It seemed like he was back to that rainy night. Lu Zhao had to find out the truth.

Bai Li sat on the sofa and looked at Lu Zhao, who squatted down and looked up at him. He didn't know what his expression was, but he could hear Lu Zhao asking him "Are you like this because of me?"

At that time, Bai Li couldn't say it. He didn't dare to admit it, but he didn't want to deny it. He could only answer again and again after Lu Zhao fell asleep.

In the darkness, Bai Li felt that Lu Zhao was looking at him.

Bai Li's voice was very small, but very clear. He said, "Yes."

He saw Lu Zhao's eyes light up. Outside the transparent wall was a starry sky, but no star was more beautiful than Lu Zhao's eyes.

Bai Li turned over, opened his arms and hugged Lu Zhao, and smelled the grass scent with water after his bath: "Can I hold you to sleep?"

Lu Zhao adjusted a comfortable posture and said "um": "Cut first and play later."

Bai Li replied: "I dare you next time."

Lu Zhao's chuckle came from the darkness.

Oh, Bai Li closed his eyes and thought, it's over.

He was lit up by the light in Lu Zhao's eyes.

Bai Li's dream was a rapidly changing scene.

He was trapped in a shell and could only see everything in the outside world through the eyes of this shell.

The world outside the shell was not so good, but this shell was not so good either. He could feel the hatred and gloom in this shell, which could not be dispelled or resolved.

He saw the shell smashing everything that could be destroyed at hand, cursing over and over again at night, taking various pills and drugs without restraint. The shell's dissatisfaction with the world was like a poisoned knife, which could not stab others, but could only stab itself. However,

the face of the shell reflected in the mirror had the same facial features as Bai Li.

That was Bai Li, and it was not Bai Li. They have the same appearance and identity, and have to have the same fate.

Bai Li couldn't resist in his body. He couldn't do anything. He could only look at the face in the mirror that was exactly the same as his own, and the cruel haze on his face.

Countless scenes kept flashing by, and he began to see Lu Zhao's face in those scenes.

He saw that Lu Zhao couldn't resist the shortcomings brought about by his gender and was forced to surrender. He saw the deep bite marks on the back of his neck.

He saw Lu Zhao's cold eyes, which were extremely unfamiliar. Lu Zhao shook off his hands again and again, but he pushed him back to the bed.

This can't be done. Bai Li shouted in his body, but his voice seemed to fall on deaf ears.

In this torture of not getting a response but having to watch everything, Bai Li finally saw the final scene.

He pinched Lu Zhao's neck and pressed him to the ground. Lu Zhao's face was covered with sweat and an unnatural blush. He was resisting and trying to reject the strong pheromone suppression, but he could not escape the fate of being marked.

Shi Ke seemed to have gone crazy, and his possessiveness and violence almost pierced through his chest. Bai Li heard Shi Ke talking, but Lu Zhao did not answer. Such silent resistance only made Shi Ke more angry.

In the corner of the dim room, Lu Zhao bit his lip, and Shi Ke's falling fist was enough to drive the pheromones of the omega into a frenzy.

Bai Li had a splitting headache and was in great pain. He knew that things should not be like this, but the world told him again and again that this was how things should be.

Someone broke down the door of the room, and fresh air and light poured in from outside. Shijia was knocked to the ground. In the pheromone confrontation between the alphas, Shijia's body, which had long lacked exercise, could no longer withstand the pressure and finally lost.

With an angry roar, Shijia was punched on the bridge of his nose and fell to the ground.

Lu Zhao was taken away from him, and someone put a coat on him. He walked out with his eyes down without looking at Shijia again.

Bai Li looked at his back. The light outside the door made Lu Zhao clear and cold. He walked out the door, into the light, and left Bai Li.

The body got up from the ground and rushed towards the back, probably cursing something again, and tried to pull Lu Zhao's arm.

This time Lu Zhao did not look back, but just shook him off fiercely again. The body tripped and fell onto a shelf beside him, hitting his head on a corner of the shelf. In a trance, he saw a heavy object on the shelf falling from a high place and hitting his left leg...

Bai Li woke up from the nightmare and sat up suddenly.

His left leg was aching slightly, he took a deep breath, one hand tightly grasped his left knee, and his head was buzzing.

The plot of the original novel tortured his nerves in the dream, but the pain in his left leg really destroyed his spirit. Bai Li felt vaguely that he was about to overlap with the body in his dream. The huge fear and hatred made him take every breath with all his strength.

A hand came out of the darkness and stroked Bai Li's forehead.

Lu Zhao's voice was still vague as if he had just woken up. He said, "Bai Li, what's wrong with you?"

"No," Bai Li felt the warmth of Lu Zhao's palm and tried to calm his voice, "I'm fine."

Lu Zhao felt a little uncomfortable because of the pheromones that Bai Li involuntarily leaked. He rarely felt this kind of alert pheromones on Bai Li.

Bai Li lowered his head in the darkness and could only see a vague outline. Lu Zhao endured the discomfort, wiped the sweat from Bai Li's forehead, and whispered, "You are not in good condition." Seeing Bai Li's hand covering his knee, he asked again, "Does your leg hurt?"

Bai Li did not answer.

Lu Zhao's voice overlapped with everything in the dream. He felt as if he was still in that body, and the emotions of the body still remained deep in his blood.

Brutality, viciousness and surging possessiveness tore at Bai Li's nerves.

Lu Zhao did not get a response, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to touch Bai Li's left leg.

Bai Li suddenly pressed Lu Zhao's hand, but the force was too strong, and Lu Zhao felt a pain in his hand.

It hurt a lot, but Lu Zhao did not pull his hand back. He let Bai Li hold his hand silently, and felt Bai Li raise his head, with a dark gaze on his face.

This gaze was a little strange, and Lu Zhao felt a little uneasy, but soon he found that Bai Li's hand was shaking slightly.

Just like the trembling they felt when they first entered the house.

Bai Li once held his hand and said that he respected any choice he made.

"Your leg is uncomfortable," Lu Zhao's voice softened, and he kissed Bai Li, "I'll give you a massage."

The lips touching his skin brought a familiar tingling sensation, and Bai Li's consciousness gradually withdrew from the dream just now. He felt that he was being hypocritical, and felt from the bottom of his heart that he was hopeless.

Bai Li closed his eyes, eased the strength of his hands, and took Lu Zhao's hand to press on his left leg, which was still twitching in pain.

Bai Li's voice was a little hoarse: "My leg hurts so much."

These four words made Lu Zhao's heart ache.

Bai Li watched Lu Zhao lift the quilt and press his left leg a little unfamiliarly. The hands that had driven the mecha carefully touched his skin and stroked the ugly scars.

The night light on the wall was awakened by Lu Zhao's gesture. Bai Li looked at Lu Zhao without blinking in the soft light. The latter lowered his eyes and slightly frowned. He did not dare to use too much force in his hands, fearing that it would increase the pain in Bai Li's legs.

"Lu Zhao," Bai Li said, "what if my legs are completely useless."

Lu Zhao was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at him: "No."

A smile appeared on Bai Li's face: "What if?"

Somehow, Lu Zhao felt that this smile was very sad. He shook his head: "It won't happen."

Bai Li wanted to speak again, but Lu Zhao said sternly: "No."

He didn't want to hear Bai Li say this again, and Bai Li understood.

The two fell into a subtle silence, but Lu Zhao's hand did not stop, trying to relieve the discomfort in Bai Li's legs.

Bai Li tilted his head and looked at him for a while, and suddenly realized that Lu Zhao was actually quite childish sometimes. He didn't want to hear words that made him sad, so he would raise his voice like he was angry, and he seemed quite fierce.

So Master Bai showed his more childish side: "My legs hurt." Lu Zhao raised his head to look at him, and Bai Li added with red ears, "It will only be better if you kiss."

Lu Zhao felt that he had no temper with Bai Li at all. His shoulders, which were tense because of the conversation just now, relaxed. He glanced at Bai Li, leaned down and kissed Bai Li's knees.

As soon as the kiss stopped, Bai Li's hand reached out, lifted his chin, and leaned over to look into Lu Zhao's eyes.

"If it really fails," Bai Li said softly, "Lu Zhao, I won't blame anyone."

Lu Zhao didn't understand, and was about to ask, when he heard and felt a slight shake in the room. Bai Li reached out to support him, and the two of them vigilantly felt the movement of the cruise ship.

The small butler robot in the corner made a soft "beep" sound, and a notification came in.

"What's going on?" Bai Li stood up and asked.

The butler robot's indicator light lit up red, and a soft female voice said: "Please don't panic, guests. A private boat is about to dock with the cruise ship. The cruise ship will temporarily stop sailing. New passengers will board the ship, and the voyage will continue after boarding."

Lu Zhao and Bai Li looked at each other.

After a few seconds, the robot's red light went out and turned green and continued: "The passenger's identity has been verified, and he will enjoy this voyage with you. It is now 6:27 in the morning. Breakfast will be ready in thirteen minutes. Guests can go to the banquet hall to enjoy it."

Bai Li looked at the butler robot and his heart skipped a beat.

He closed his eyes and felt as if he was surrounded by the dark universe. Only the scent of Lu Zhao came from the darkness
