Chapter 49



Lu Zhao was bitten on the neck several times. Bai Li didn't bite the glands, but the susceptible period shook his self-control and left several tooth marks on Lu Zhao's neck.

This kind of venting behavior was quite childish. Lu Zhao didn't say anything. The last bite was a bit painful. He rubbed Bai Li's dog head hard.

Bai Li's messy hair was no longer as carefully groomed as when he got up in the morning. He didn't care about being rubbed. He grabbed Lu Zhao's hand and took a look, and said, "Why didn't you deal with it?"

His voice was still hoarse, and his tone was quite different from usual. The influence of the susceptible period on him was more severe than that of other alphas.

"It's okay," Lu Zhao said, "just a minor injury."

There was only a small warm yellow light in the isolation chamber. Some alphas are afraid of light during their susceptible period, so this color of light won't irritate them too much. Under the warm light, the bruise on the back of Lu Zhao's hand looked like a dark scar. Bai Li touched it with his thumb and said, "It was the same when I broke my leg. I avoided all the plot points. It was fine a few minutes ago, but suddenly something went wrong."

When Lu Zhao heard him say this, he remembered that he said just now that he knew his leg would be injured.

"You can understand that fate has already set a big framework for us and written it into a book. In this book, I must be disabled." Bai Li held Lu Zhao's hand in his own hand. "In the book, I will be mad when you and Tang Xiaowangba... well, meet, and I will hit you. When you resist, your hand will be injured, and it is also the back of your hand."

These things and these words have been suppressed in Bai Li's heart for too long. He once thought that when he spoke out, his throat would be dry and difficult to speak, but now Bai Li found that he spoke very smoothly, and even didn't want to stop.

He had been holding it in for too long, like a balloon filled with water, which would explode if a hole was punctured. He had to speak it out.

Bai Li said again: "I knew I would get hurt, and I found a chance to avoid it, but I didn't expect that my leg would still be lame a few months later."

Lu Zhao felt bad, curled his fingers, and held Bai Li's hand.

"I didn't avoid disability, and I can't change the important nodes." Bai Li murmured, "Let me tell you, when I was a child, I thought Bai Ying would listen to me and leave the Tang family, but she is still like this now."

The confusion of thinking caused by the susceptible period made Bai Li speak incoherently. Lu Zhao understood about 70% of it. He felt that he couldn't understand all of it, because he couldn't bear to understand just these 70% of it.

Lu Zhao held Bai Li's hand: "It's not your fault."

Bai Li nodded and shook his head.

"You don't understand," Bai Li said, "Pain is nothing. It's unbearable to know it's going to happen but not be able to stop it."

His head began to ache again. Once he talked about these things, the plot of the original novel would fill his head. After Lu Zhao soothed the surging pheromones, the five senses of the body returned. Bai Li's legs could not support him anymore, and his knees became weak.

Lu Zhao sensed that something was wrong with Bai Li, so he helped him sit on the long soft chair prepared in the isolation cabin, squatted down and lifted up his trouser legs to see what was going on.

As soon as he lifted up his trouser legs, Bai Li saw the ugly scars on his legs. Lu Zhao covered them with a purple hand, scar upon scar.

From this angle, you can see Lu Zhao's eyes drooping, his lips pursed, and his brows slightly wrinkled.

The original plot and the current scene were mixed together. Bai Li said in a trance: "This leg in the book will be hit again and completely useless. I will be hospitalized for a long time, until I die."

Lu Zhao stroked Bai Li's knee and said in a hoarse voice: "No, Bai Li, you won't..."

"What will happen when that day comes?" Bai Li grabbed Lu Zhao's hand and said, "When that day comes, you will know that you can't change anything. It's too torturous. Really, Lu Zhao, what the hell are you going to do when that time comes?"

Lu Zhao felt Bai Li's warm lips on the back of his injured hand, and the soft tip of his tongue licked the gap on his joints.

Bai Li said: "When that time comes, don't feel bad because of me, okay?"

Lu Zhao pulled Bai Li's collar and took him into his arms. He remembered that morning when Bai Li woke up from a nightmare and brought up the matter tentatively. He said that he did not blame anyone.

How could there be such a person? Lu Zhao rubbed his lips against the tip of Bai Li's ear and thought, how could there be such a person, he could poke his heart as soon as he opened his mouth.

How could there be a person like Bai Li in this fucking rotten world.

The Crustacean drove very fast and did not stop at the gate of the military hospital. The hospital opened a special passage, and the Crustacean drove directly to the gate of the inpatient building.

Several specially selected beta medical staff were already standing at the door. Lao Zheng was waiting at the door. When he saw the Crustacean from a distance, he took two steps to greet it.

There was a suspension car following the Crustacean, which stopped first. Situ and Jiang Hao got out of the car one on each side.

"Have you prepared the isolation room?" Situ asked when he saw Lao Zheng, "Get one without many hard objects."

Lao Zheng said, "Yes, it's ready a long time ago. I didn't know what happened to Bai Li just now.

Jiang Hao said, "Don't mention it."

Situ said, "If it hadn't stopped, it would have to be carried over like that time."

Hearing that it stopped, Lao Zheng's face looked a little better: "Okay, Situ, you are brave. Did you stop it or did Jiang Hao stop it?"

Jiang Hao opened his mouth and was about to speak when the Crustacean drove over and stopped.

The door of the isolation chamber opened very slowly, mainly to take into account the emotions of the susceptible alphas and prevent them from being stimulated by the strong light from the outside.

Old Zheng and the others stopped talking. He was a beta, and he surrounded them with Jiang Hao and several medical staff. Situ didn't dare to stand forward because he was an alpha, and he was worried about Bai Li and Lu Zhao getting into trouble, so he stood farther away and stretched his head to look.

The door slowly opened, and a strong pheromone residue flowed out. Old Zheng frowned and called Bai Li twice to determine whether he was currently conscious.

Two people got off the isolation cabin. Bai Li put his hand on Lu Zhao's shoulder with a tired look. It was obvious that his legs were not in good condition when he walked. Lao Zheng's heart skipped a beat. Looking at Bai Li's expression, he saw that he was not angry except for some anxiety and annoyance after seeing the light.

"Stop shouting," Bai Li said hoarsely, "He's not dead, he's gasping for breath."

Lao Zheng quickly called the robot behind to push a wheelchair over, and asked several medical staff holding the susceptibility reliever to make a gesture, meaning that it was not needed.

"How is your leg? Do you remember where you hit it?" Lao Zheng asked.

Bai Li frowned and didn't want to speak. The hospital was a public place, and there were inevitably all kinds of messy pheromones around. Even if they were very faint, he could feel it and couldn't suppress his irritability.

"He hit his skull with his knee during the fight," Lu Zhao's voice rang out, "I used my hand to cushion the blow. But he still doesn't feel well."

Lao Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he realized who the omega in military uniform was. He said "Oh" twice and quickly said, "Thank you for your hard work, Major General Lu."

Lu Zhao shook his head.

"I was wondering why it wasn't so serious this time. It turns out there is pheromone massage." Lao Zheng said, "Then let's go check the legs first, and then go to the isolation room for observation."

Several medical staff stretched out their hands to help Bai Li, and then saw Bai Li took two steps by himself, not allowing anyone except Lu Zhao to help him, and sat in the wheelchair by himself. Bai

Li was particularly annoyed to sit in this wheelchair. This feeling was too familiar. As soon as his butt touched the wheelchair, he subconsciously wanted to stand up and leave. His face was very sour, and several medical staff holding sedatives looked at him vigilantly.

At this time, Bai Li's pheromones were much more stable. Although Situ felt a little uncomfortable, he still came up to ask about Lu Zhao's situation. When he saw Bai Li's sour face, he whispered, "The last time he came, he made too much noise. There is a psychological shadow here in the hospital."

Lu Zhao heard it and also glanced at Bai Li's expression.

In the past, Bai Li always had the smiling face of the Bai Young Master, but now there was no trace of a smile. When he sat on the wheelchair, everyone could see that he was unhappy. His sour face made him look domineering and a little aggrieved.

Lu Zhao patted his shoulder soothingly, and Bai Li grabbed his hand.

Alphas in the susceptible period are unreasonable, and no one said anything. The medical staff saw that Master Bai's expression eased a little after he held Major General Lu's hand. They all breathed a sigh of relief and said they would go to the examination room.

The examination room was very close, next to the inpatient building, and it was set up on the first floor for convenience.

Lao Zheng arranged for someone to tell the examination room that Bai Li had arrived. He turned his head and glanced at Bai Li, clearing his throat: "Only patients can enter the examination room, you know?"

Bai Li said with a sour face: "Yeah."

He held Lu Zhao's hand and had no intention of letting go.

Lao Zheng said again: "Let me be direct, Major General Lu can accompany you in the isolation room, but not in the examination room."

Bai Li closed his eyes and leaned on the wheelchair: "Oh."

He still held on and refused to let go.

"Can you please stop pretending that you don't understand? I know you can think straight now," Lao Zheng wanted to punch him twice, "Let go!"

Bai Li didn't respond.

Alphas in their susceptible period can easily show a different side from usual. They become violent because they have too many negative emotions. If they can't be comforted, they can just bear it by themselves. After being comforted, most of them will show dependence on the omega. Different alphas have different dependence behaviors.

Lu Zhao's hand was held by Bai Li. Bai Li's palm was warm. Lu Zhao's heart had already softened. He wanted to laugh, but he also thought that if Bai Li was not in a state of excitement during her susceptible period, she would be quite cute.

"How long will the examination take?" Lu Zhao asked.

Old Zheng: "He is in the susceptible period. It is not good for him to stay outside for too long. Let him go to the physical examination table first. It will only take ten minutes."

Lu Zhao said "hmm" and leaned over to whisper in Bai Li's ear: "Ten minutes."

Bai Li did not say anything.

Lu Zhao called out: "Bai Li?"

The man was motionless as if he was playing dead.

Lu Zhao suppressed his laughter: "Li Li?"

"..." Bai Li's ears were itchy because of his voice. In fact, he was more or less awake at this moment, but his brain did not want to move. It was comfortable to be close to Lu Zhao. He just wanted to be close to Lu Zhao. Hearing this, Bai Li had to move, "hmm."

Then he reluctantly let go of his hand.

Jiang Hao and Situ were stunned. Jiang Hao was a beta, and he had only seen an alpha being soothed during the susceptible period many times in his life. He called it a fucking gender miracle in his heart. Even a bastard like Bai Li could be made cute by the susceptible period.

Situ himself was an A, but unfortunately he was a bachelor and had no chance to experience the feeling of being soothed by pheromones. Seeing Bai Li's obedient look, he responded to Lu Zhao's words. Situ felt that his eyes were about to pop out of his sockets.

"Bai Li," Situ took advantage of the fact that he was only talking one word at a time and said, "Can you give me a raise?" "Yes" was just one word, but "No" was two words.

Bai Li opened his eyes and said unhappily: "Get lost."

Situ: "..." Damn it, you can still be like this.

Several medical staff around laughed so hard that they quickly pushed Bai Li into the examination room. Old Zheng was anxious to check Bai Li's leg injury, so he also went in in a hurry.

The door of the examination room closed, and only Lu Zhao and the other two were still standing outside.

"You haven't eaten a bite of food," Jiang Hao rubbed his forehead and said, "I'll get a few bottles of nutrient solution."

Lu Zhao nodded and thanked him, and Jiang Hao went out to contact the logistics department of the military hospital.

Situ took out a small white ball and handed it to Lu Zhao: "Si Dong asked me to give this to Bai Li. I see he's out of energy today, so I might as well give it to you."

"Where's Si Dong?"

Situ said, "I asked him to take a taxi home first. That guy just became an adult not long ago, how can he resist Bai Li's pheromones."

Holding the small white ball in his hand, Lu Zhao didn't understand what Si Dong meant by giving it to him. He saw Situ's hesitant expression out of the corner of his eye, and looked up and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Well what..." Situ remembered the "broken engagement" mentioned by Tang Kaiyuan on the cruise ship. He wanted to ask, but felt that it was someone else's family matter, so he didn't say anything. He just said, "It's okay. Thank you very much."

Lu Zhao didn't understand.

Situ added, "At that time, I always felt that you helped him."

Only alphas can understand the fragility of the susceptible period. It seems that they are out of control, but the root of the loss of control mostly comes from the darkness in their hearts. The fewer negative emotions there are, the smaller the impact of the susceptible period is. Situ has always known that Bai Li's susceptible period is abnormal, but he can't help.

"I have been in the hospital isolation room before," Situ said, "staying for a while, and when I come out, I can see my father and my brother. I will feel much better." After a pause, he looked at the closed door of the examination room, "Bai Li can't do it. After Mr. Bai died, he spent the craziest days alone."

In fact, even if Mr. Bai was alive, he couldn't accompany him much.

That was an old man who didn't allow Bai Li to be submissive. Bai Li had a very tough childhood.

Neither of them spoke any more, and they leaned against the wall in silence, waiting for Bai Li to come out of the door.

I could vaguely hear the noise of people behind me. The military hospital was quite busy today. Someone seemed to be communicating, and the voice was full of joy: "Kaiyuan, I just finished my work, and I heard that you returned to the main planet..."

Lu Zhao turned his head and saw a red-haired omega talking to a man in a white coat and then jumping down the stairs. He was talking to the person on the other end of the phone while running out quickly.

In a flash, Lu Zhao recognized that this was the little reporter who had stopped his and Bai Li's car. Lu Zhao remembered Bai Li's words again.

——"That little reporter and the O I checked are related to Tang Kaiyuan."

——"Not now, but in the future."

——"He is... the center of the world."

Lu Zhao half-squinted his eyes and looked back. The figure in the white coat walked away, and only a rough outline could be seen. He looked 80% like the doctor who was responsible for examining him.

They really are related. Bai Li was right.

Lu Zhao turned his head back, holding the little white ball so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

He looked at the closed door.

When Bai Li came out, Lu Zhao and Situ would be outside. No one left this time.

The old Tang family house was covered with soft carpets.

Tang Kaiyuan stepped on it with his leather shoes, but he felt as if he was stepping on a quagmire with no support, and he felt restless.

"That's it for now," Lin Sheng's voice rang out, "It's almost the end of the year, and I have to complete the research and development before next year's Imperial Research Institute competition, so you guys shouldn't fall behind."

Tang Xiao said with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry." After a pause, he added, "I said before that I would contact the Zhou family and ask them what they think..."

"Don't mention it," Lin Sheng's face still had a gentle expression, but there was a hint of anger in his tone, "Zhou Yue did not agree to cooperate."

Tang Xiao was surprised: "This..."

Lin Sheng looked unhappy: "I should have told the Gao family to stop talking nonsense, or just don't come to the banquet. You insisted on inviting us, and we caused so much trouble last night."

The unpleasant conversation between Mr. Gao and Zhou Yue at the banquet yesterday was brought up again, and Tang Xiao's expression was a little embarrassed.

Lin Sheng glanced at Tang Kaiyuan: "Didn't you say before that you had a good relationship with Lu Zhao? Why do I see that his attitude towards you is not very warm today?"

Tang Kaiyuan's face turned a little worse after the things in his heart were revealed. He bit his lip and said softly: "We haven't seen each other for many years. He may need some time to get familiar with me again. Besides, Bai Li is so irritable, he may not be able to say much to me."

"Really?" Lin Sheng was suspicious, and then laughed again, "But I think Mr. Bai and Major General Lu have a good relationship."

Tang Kaiyuan frowned: "Maybe."

The two talked about something else casually. Lin Sheng reminded Tang Kaiyuan to perform well in the selection of the First Corps, which would open up a new path for them in the military, and then he was about to say goodbye and leave.

Before leaving, he added: "Keep a low profile recently. He is not in good health. I guess he has made another plan in his mind. It is time for the eldest young master to show his face. Don't affect him."

Tang Xiao hurriedly agreed and sent Lin Sheng out.

This was said in a very obscure way. Tang Kaiyuan had not been on the main star for a long time. It took him a few seconds to realize what Lin Sheng was talking about. In the noble circle, the first prince was privately called "the eldest young master". He was the first heir, and Lin Sheng had a good relationship with him.

"Father," Tang Kaiyuan was a little surprised, "when did our family start to get involved in that family's affairs..."

Tang Xiao waved his hands: "It's not that serious, I'm just helping with some small things." He turned his head to look at his son, and said, "By the way, Bai Li suddenly went crazy just now, are you okay?"

"It's okay," Tang Kaiyuan shook his head, "I didn't expect him to have so no self-control and lose control in such a situation."

Tang Xiao snorted coldly: "Hasn't the Bai family's education always been like this? Domineering and arrogant! Don't bother with him, he has been wild since he was a child, and doesn't take me and your mother seriously. You are different. I always believe that you can bring honor to the Tang family."

From childhood to adulthood, Tang Kaiyuan has heard these words no less than a hundred times.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that he was superior to Bai Li, even superior to this brother with a different surname. But the memory of his youth always lingered in his heart, and he always lived under the shadow of Bai Li, which gradually grew into his heart and spread all over his body.

Tang Kaiyuan came back to his senses, smiled and said, "I came back this time to show my skills."

After yesterday's busyness and the sudden incident in the morning, Tang Xiao was a little depressed. The family talked a few more words, and Mrs. Tang silently helped him walk towards their bedroom.

Tang Kaiyuan followed behind, responding to Tang Xiao's words in a disjointed manner.

Walking to the bedroom, Mrs. Tang looked back at him and whispered, "Kaiyuan, is the omega you brought back your partner?"

Tang Kaiyuan was stunned for a moment, and after realizing who his mother was talking about, he said, "Yes."

"But just now, I heard you communicating with another omega..." Mrs. Tang bit her lip, "The tone was very intimate, what's going on?"

"Mother," Tang Kaiyuan interrupted her with a smile, "There are some things I can't explain to you, but I love my partner, and I respond to everyone who loves me sincerely and equally."

Mrs. Tang stared at her son in a daze. She didn't understand, but she felt that this son was very strange.

This son who was raised by her made her feel frustrated and lost.

Tang Kaiyuan gave a few more instructions, asked his parents to have a good rest, and left first.

The curtains were drawn in the bedroom, and the bleak light of the rainy season in the empire outside the window could not get in much. Mrs. Tang exhaled and walked into the bedroom.

A fist was rounded and hit her. Mrs. Tang screamed softly and fell to the ground.

"Look at what you Bai family have done!" Tang Xiao's anger made his slightly fat body tremble, "Don't you think I'm embarrassing enough? Your father doesn't take me seriously, and Bai Li doesn't take me seriously either!"

Mrs. Tang held her head and sobbed, "He doesn't, he is just susceptible and can't control it..."

"Shut up! Shut up!" Tang Xiao roared, "Are you speaking for him? You dared to push me this morning, Bai Ying, don't think I don't know why you sneaked out last night... You saw it, right? I don't treat you as a mother at all!"

Mrs. Tang huddled in the corner, trembling and unable to speak.

The smell of Tang Xiao's pheromones filled the bedroom. Mrs. Tang felt her eyes go dark and the glands at the back of her neck began to twitch.

Tang Xiao was still roaring in a low voice, but Mrs. Tang could no longer hear him clearly. Her hands and feet were out of control and she couldn't stand up at all.

The face of her father when he was alive flashed through Mrs. Tang's mind in the dim light, and soon the face became blurred again, and Bai Li's facial features became clear again.

Mrs. Tang remembered that in the warm light of the cruise ship corridor, Bai Li held Lu Zhao with his arm weakly and spoke softly in his ear.

She also remembered Tang Kaiyuan's expression just now, and the words he said that she couldn't understand...

Her body was pulled up by Tang Xiao, and Mrs. Tang saw his face through her vision blurred by tears, and a trace of confusion and hatred flashed in her eyes.

Through the heavy door, Tang Kaiyuan looked back in the corridor. His mental strength was very high now, and he sensed that there were abnormal pheromone fluctuations coming from his parents' room.

He stood there, with a vague bad feeling in his heart.

He had this feeling since he was a child, but he never thought about whether he should confirm it.

Tang Kaiyuan was not in a good mood at the moment. The expected joy of returning to the main planet did not come. Today he met Lu Zhao again and also met Bai Li.

Under the hedging of pheromones, Tang Kaiyuan was horrified to discover a fact.

Even though his mental power has been raised to this level, he still cannot surpass Bai Li in terms of stable output. Even Bai Li, who is in the susceptible period, still has a frighteningly strong control over mental power. He could not suppress Bai Li's pheromones, so he was kicked by Bai Li.

That kick kicked out the timidity buried deep in his soul when he was young, and the self-confidence that Tang Kaiyuan had built up in the past few years almost collapsed. He became uneasy in his heart, always feeling that he should not be like this. He closed his eyes and turned to walk towards his room.

There are already a lot of worries, and I have to find a way to stabilize my mental strength first, Tang Kaiyuan thought, when he has time, he will ask his mother and father if there is anything unhappy.

The rain of the empire washed the old Tang family house, and he looked up at the window in the rumbling thunder.

The smell of rain mixed with the mowed lawn outside the window came, and he thought of the young major general.
