Chapter 21
Lan Yexing immediately contacted Yang Qing, then took Qiao You's arm and helped him to a bench nearby, ready to wait for the school hospital's car to arrive.
Then, Lan Yexing also sat down next to the young man. Just as he was about to take out a clean handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, he suddenly felt his left shoulder sink - Qiao You closed his eyes and leaned on his shoulder defenselessly.
His cheek was pressed against the boy's warm neck, and his hot breath almost dyed the skin on one side of the boy's neck red.
This posture was so sudden and intimate that Lan Yexing almost subconsciously pushed the other person away like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Fortunately, I reacted in time and did not actually push the patient.
His shoulders felt heavy and his neck was hot and itchy. Lan Yexing felt extremely uncomfortable, as if something was wrong with his whole body - he had taken care of patients before, but no one had ever rested his head on his shoulder like this.
He slightly side-glanced, quietly looking at the extremely handsome face beside his neck, sighed softly, and gently pushed aside the young man's slightly cool golden hair, put the handkerchief on the other's forehead, and wiped it carefully.
Considering that it was very cold late at night in autumn, Lan Yexing took off his coat with great effort and put it on the other person, trying not to disturb the other person.
Qiao You seldom allowed himself to lose consciousness, but at this moment he felt inexplicably at ease to the point of being addictive. He stretched out his big hand unconsciously and accurately restrained Lan Yexing's other wrist, which had not moved for the time being, like a naughty child, preventing him from leaving.
Lan Yexing paused while wiping the sweat off his forehead and said speechlessly, "Hey, don't go too far."
As he was speaking, clear footsteps were heard coming from far away. Lan Yexing's pupils shrank and he leaned forward slightly in a protective posture, looking coldly and vigilantly at the person who was coming from the direction of the hotel and was about to come to them.
It was Prince Leon and his security and entourage.
When passing by Lan Yexing and the others, Leon did not stop. He just glanced sideways, just like the last time they met on the road, he looked at Lan Yexing calmly, indifferently, and deliberately for a moment.
Then he left without looking back.
Lan Yexing looked at Leon's back with a cold expression: Leon might know him...
Because no one would look at a stranger twice with such a deliberate and scrutinizing gaze - even on the street, they would look over deliberately.
In Lan Yexing's blind spot, the blond young man who was resting his head on his shoulder suddenly opened his cold eyes like a wild beast. At this moment, Leon, who had already walked far away, suddenly staggered and almost fell to the ground. The bodyguard beside him hurriedly supported him.
Lan Yexing was stunned when he saw this scene. When he reacted, he immediately turned his head and, as expected, met those green eyes.
Qiao You, who had just pulled out one of Leon's leg bones in 0.01 seconds, had already stood up from his shoulder, with a strong and arrogant smile on his face that was flushed due to the high fever, and let him watch.
Lan Yexing stared at him for a long while before lowering his voice and saying, "Whatever your spiritual power is, it was too dangerous just now. It is said that the royal family members possess all spiritual powers, and they-"
A hint of disdain flashed across Qiao You's eyes: "Only the king himself possesses all the spiritual power."
Other members of the royal family, even his direct children, only have one more spiritual power than members of other families - that is to say, Leon has two spiritual powers.
This was the reason why he would take action in a confined space where a crowd of people gathered—even if they were not kings, members of the royal family were special enough in the area of mental power.
Lan Yexing blinked: "Like this."
The next moment, Lan Yexing felt his shoulder sink—Qiao You, who was running a high fever, fell unconscious on his shoulder again, his breathing even hotter and heavier than before.
Lan Yexing: “…” He was burned like this, it’s a wonder he was able to regain consciousness and do something else immediately.
He sighed again, took out the other clean handkerchief and gently wiped the other person's forehead.
…
Five minutes later, the school hospital's car finally arrived.
Lan Yexing accompanied him, and Qiao You was quickly put on an IV in the emergency room.
The doctor said that it was probably because he had the bad luck to be implicated by Qi Zhong before, and not only was he soaked in sea water, but the wound on his hand was also infected.
Qiao You, who rarely gets sick before, will be very serious and urgent when he gets sick. Just taking medicine is useless. He needs to receive intravenous drip for at least two days. After the drip, he will be fine.
Only then did Lan Yexing feel relieved.
He accompanied Qiao You as he received an IV in the empty emergency room, and in the meantime he ran to a convenience store to buy two pudding breads, milk, and mineral water, just like last time.
After coming back, he sat next to the young man, kept one copy for himself, and gave the other to the young man who had already sobered up.
Qiao You raised an eyebrow and took it. He tore open the package and took a bite elegantly. He smiled and said, "How thoughtful, junior. Would you take care of anyone to this extent?"
Lan Yexing lowered his eyes and said calmly: "My parents taught me this, do you have any objection?"
Having gone through a lot together, Lan Yexing thought he was a bit familiar with the other party, so he continued to complain: "Also, senior, please say thank you directly at this time."
Qiao You thought about the boy's expression when he talked about his parents, then he smiled and said, "Thank you."
After saying you're welcome, Lan Yexing looked at the IV drip that was almost finished. He quickly slowed down the speed to prevent the other person's hand from hurting due to the rapid flow of liquid at the last moment.
At this moment he remembered something and asked, "So after the infusion, will you go home or return to the dormitory?" Today is Friday, and we have two days off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Qiao You: “Home.” The elderly people in his family went back to their hometown to visit relatives these two days, so he didn’t have to worry about them knowing that he was sick.
Lan Yexing said "Oh" and said, "Then let's go together later."
Qiao You had no idea why he felt so relaxed just by hearing Lan Yexing's voice. He glanced sideways and took in the handsome face of the young man beside him. After a while, he said calmly, "Okay."
…
After the infusion, they took a taxi back home. It was almost two o'clock in the morning.
As soon as Lan Yexing stepped into the house, Maotuan meowed loudly and ran out of the living room and to the entrance with his short legs. He rubbed Lan Yexing's trouser legs anxiously and hard, almost breaking his voice - in the cat's world, the owner goes out to hunt every day. If he doesn't come back for a long time, the cat will think that the owner has encountered danger and has died outside.
Maotuan rubbed against the guy who finally came back safely today. Even when his voice was hoarse, he still made snoring sounds in his throat.
Lan Yexing's heart softened. He leaned over, picked up the little thing that was no bigger than his palm, and held it in his arms. He gently rubbed the other's already soft fur with his cheek: "Sorry, I came back late today. Let's spend the next two days together."
The fur ball struggled to get into his arms and meowed in response.
Lan Yexing yawned, and with anticipation of a peaceful and harmonious holiday, he walked into the warm light holding Maotuan in his arms.
…
The first day of the holiday went as Lan Yexing had wished.
That evening, he sat next to Maotuan, listening to the news on TV and sorting out what had happened in the past week.
After completing two tasks in the hotel, Lan Yexing accumulated another 5 points. He first asked, "Xiao Song, do you remember anything about you?"
When the system talks about this kind of thing, its voice is always particularly gentle and bewildered: [I remember that I broke my leg when I was riding a horse to herd sheep... but for some reason, I had other sequelae. I was always drowsy, and the duration of my drowsiness was getting longer and longer. Someone cried for me and made a gold lamb pendant for me to bless my recovery... but my condition is getting worse and worse...]
[Later, someone came to my house and said he could save me...]
…
[Huh? My essence is clearly data, so why do I have a family that can ride a horse? ]
Lan Yexing's pupils shrank, and his heart felt sore because of some possibility.
He stroked the dial gently and asked, "Do you still remember what that person looked like?"
System: [Sorry, I don't remember. But I have the data of that pendant.]
As he said this, a pendant gradually took shape on the dial that was emitting a cool light. It was a very cute little lamb with spiral horns, one of which seemed to have been accidentally chipped.
Lan Yexing memorized the pendant's appearance and continued to ask in a hoarse voice, "Do you remember anything else?"
System: [I don't remember.] After a pause, it said happily: [But I have unlocked a new ability.]
System: [It is the spiritual power of breathing. ]
Lan Yexing was stunned: "Breathing?" Why is this name so strange?
System: [It is the spiritual power that supports people to survive in anaerobic conditions. If the host accidentally enters an anaerobic environment, it can provide oxygen for the host for five minutes.] So if something like Qi Zhong happens again, it can help the host!
It is said that families with this kind of spiritual power are indifferent to fame and fortune and are very adventurous, and have conquered many uninhabited areas with extremely harsh environments.
Lan Yexing gently placed his hand on the dial: "I see, thank you."
At this time, the news about Qi Zhong happened to be broadcast on TV. Even though the Qi family was involved, the case was still exposed. Qi Zhong has now woken up in the hospital, but he is in unbearable pain all over his body, but the cause cannot be found.
When it comes to the heir, the Qi family naturally uses their connections everywhere, but Qi Zhong is still under police control for now - after all, someone called the police in time before the Qi family intervened, and many people witnessed the victim being rescued from the alien space, so this matter cannot be suppressed.
Including the previous arson case by the illegitimate son of the Yuan family, this is the second recent incident in which a psychic posed a threat to ordinary people. Some people in society are gradually beginning to doubt whether psychic power is really as harmless to ordinary people as rumored.
Lan Yexing looked at the words "Space Psychic" on the display screen thoughtfully: He still couldn't figure out what the essence of Qi Zhong's psychic power was.
Recreate a space?
But to be honest, that sea area didn't seem to be created. Instead, it looked more like... Qi had connected to somewhere through his ability...
After recording this information in an orderly manner, Lan Yexing thought of his guess that Leon knew him, and began to use some search methods to query the royal family information:
The current king has two alpha sons and one alpha daughter. Leon is the eldest. He and his younger sister are now almost the spokespersons of the royal family. The king and his second son are rumored to be in poor health and rarely appear in public.
Lan Yexing looked thoughtfully at a piece of entertainment gossip in an inconspicuous corner: It is rumored that Leon and the king do not have a good relationship, and a palace staff member once accidentally saw the two of them arguing fiercely.
After writing down this information again, Lan Yexing closed the notebook.
At this time, the sun was setting outside the window. Maotuan was sleeping comfortably against Lan Yexing. He gently pushed it away, stretched his body, and got up to cook.
He cooked the same kind of noodles that Qiao You always ate when he came home. Lan Yexing ate the noodles in a relaxed and casual manner, thinking, he didn't know how that guy was doing, and whether he had gone for the infusion on time.
As a result, just after he had thought for a second, the system's voice rang: [The omega Lin Qian that Prince Leon wanted to introduce to Qiao You knew about Qiao You's illness. He will come to Qiao You's door tonight because he is too worried, and faint in front of Qiao You's door because he is too weak and overthinking. ]
[After being kindly taken back to Qiao You's house by Qiao You's servant to rest, he will sneak into Qiao You's room to confess his love to Qiao You and express his desire to stay and take care of him. ]
[Host, please prevent this strategy event from happening. 】
Lan Yexing, who was eating noodles and was shocked by the dog blood, said: "Cough cough cough!"
How come Qiao You’s peach blossoms are either perverted or a patient with advanced histrionic personality disorder?
…
After dinner, Lan Yexing resigned himself to his fate and went out.
As soon as he walked down the stairs, he saw a frail figure standing in front of the door next door. After ringing the doorbell, the figure fell to the ground pitifully as if she could not hold on.
Not long after, the door was opened, and the person who came out was not the old butler from before - he seemed to be away today.
It was a young servant who helped the boneless omega lying on the ground inside.
The servant seemed to be responsible for the cooking and cleaning of the house, Lan Yexing heard the old man say this once.
Lan Yexing, who originally wanted to help the omega into his home first and then call an ambulance to take him away: "...." They acted too quickly!
Moreover, the servants of Qiao You’s family actually let strangers in?
What Qiao You was doing now was mysterious and dangerous. He thought that his servants had been specifically instructed to be wary of strangers.
Lan Yexing sighed helplessly, walked quickly to the next door, stood in front of the door, and rang the doorbell neatly.
The young beta servant opened the door quickly. When he saw Lan Yexing, he looked alert and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
However, the little Corgi that came over after hearing the sound barked happily and rubbed against Lan Yexing's trouser legs as if having fun.
Lan Yexing smiled slightly: "I am Qiao You's junior. He borrowed my classical poetry class notes and hasn't returned them to me yet. I came to ask him for them. Is he here?"
The servant still looked alert. He said, "Sorry, the master is busy in the basement and is not allowed to be disturbed. You can return it to him when you return to school." As he said that, he was about to close the door.
Lan Yexing smiled and stretched out his hand to block the door. He said, "I'll wait for him. Don't worry, our friendship is enough for me to have a cup of tea at his house."
The servant frowned in dissatisfaction and was about to say something when Lan Yexing pointed inside and winked: "Oh, by the way, I also know the omega you just helped in. We can still chat for a while."
The servant's face was filled with confusion for a moment: his employer only allowed him to put in an omega, so was there a beta? Were they in a partnership?
After thinking for a moment, he made a gesture of invitation.
Lan Yexing looked at him thoughtfully and stepped in.
…
It is very likely that Qiao You’s house was decorated by the old man, and it has a very classical and warm old-fashioned style of decoration.
Lan Yexing looked at it curiously and walked into the living room.
There, the omega in the white shirt seemed to have woken up. He was sitting on the sofa with a teacup in both hands, sipping black tea carefully.
He was startled when he heard the noise and looked towards Lan Yexing. His face was blank for a moment in surprise. Just as he was about to say something, Lan Yexing smiled and looked at the servant: "I want milk in my black tea, and I want some cookies to go with the black tea."
Omega looked at Lan Yexing thoughtfully, and then an extremely innocent smile appeared on his face: "Hello, my name is Lin Qian, I met you at the dinner yesterday."
Seeing Lin Qiandu say this, the servant glanced at Lan Yexing, then got up and went to the kitchen.
Lan Yexing sat down next to Lin Qian and looked at him with a smile: "Did you bribe his family's servants?"
It was impossible for the servants in Qiao You's house to let such a suspicious stranger in. The servant's behavior just now made him more certain that he had been bribed.
But he really didn't understand. In Qiao You's situation, it was impossible for him and the old man not to choose trustworthy servants. What could possibly lure him?
Lin Qian still smiled innocently, with a hint of shyness in his pupils. A pleasant peach scent emanated from his body. He tilted his head to look at Lan Yexing, revealing his beautiful collarbone just right. A red rope was strung around his neck, and there seemed to be some pendant tied underneath.
He looked at Lan Yexing sincerely and asked with some hurt: "Hey? Why do you say that? I have never done such a thing."
Lan Yexing: Well, he just said that he himself had never done such a thing.
He was still smiling at the omega, but a faint electric current was already appearing on his right wrist - while the servants were preparing tea and snacks, he would knock the omega unconscious, take him away, and then send him to the hospital - he had planned to do this in the first place.
It’s really convenient that Qiao You is not here.
But the omega leaned forward at this time, with an even more beautiful shy smile on his face. He looked closer at him and said innocently: "Lan, why do you hate me? Just because I am an ordinary civilian?"
As he said this, the gold pendant around his neck was revealed, clearly visible to Lan Yexing.
Lan Yexing suddenly opened his eyes wide, and the rationality in his mind seemed to be torn apart in an instant.
The electric current on his wrist disappeared instantly. The boy reached out his hand, grabbed the omega's collar and pulled him over. For the first time, a cold look mixed with hostility surged in his beautiful light-colored eyes: "Where did you get this pendant?"
There were clear and powerful footsteps outside the living room. The omega suddenly showed a frightened and pitiful expression on his face. He was trembling all over: "Classmate, why did you suddenly barge in and force me to enter the susceptible period?"
His slender arm passed over Lan Yexing and stretched out shakily towards the blond young man who had already entered the living room. His slender white fingertips trembled, and several kinds of alluring pheromones burst out instantly, as if to engulf this space: "Senior, please, help me..."
No alpha or beta can resist his blend of pheromones.
Lan Yexing's pupils shrank, and dizziness had already struck his mind - No, if he smelled the pheromone during the susceptible period, he would -
He tightly grasped the omega's collar, his eyes reddened - he couldn't faint yet, he had to find out what the golden pendant was -
The next moment, a cool, powerful hand lifted up his collar steadily. He staggered to his feet and fell backwards into someone's arms. A blanket with the scent of lime fell over his head, covering his entire upper body.
The servant had heard the noise and rushed out, but he stood there frozen as he looked at the scene before him.
The young man's low, dangerous voice sounded without any warmth: "You are fired. Take him out, otherwise, you know my methods."
The Omega has now entered a truly deep susceptible period. The Omega's physique makes him even more dangerous after entering the susceptible period, but the young man obviously won't care now.
The servant didn't expect that the young man would make the decision without even asking any questions. He was afraid that the omega would die here and it would be difficult to explain to his employer. He was even more afraid of the methods of the young man, whom he had been in contact with for three years. He hurriedly and tremblingly picked up the omega on the sofa and almost escaped from the villa.
…
The blond young man, who was wearing casual clothes at home and looked taller, looked at the sofa where the omega had sat with disgust, and reached out to push Lan Yexing, who was still stiff and almost unconscious. He moved gently, pushing and hugging the boy, and took him into the study next to the living room.
After closing the study door, he pressed Lan Yexing down on the sofa inside, then turned around and got a can of juice from the small refrigerator in the study before lifting the blanket.
Perhaps because he was isolated in time, the boy did not faint and still retained some consciousness.
He sat there quietly and lost, his pupils were hollow, his eye sockets were red, and his face was dyed a hot red because of the pheromones just now.
Qiao You stood in front of him, looking down at him intently - it was the first time he saw him like this.
After a while.
"Junior," the blond youth stretched out his muscular forearm and gently placed the can of iced juice against the boy's cheek. His low, pleasant voice was slightly nasal due to the fever and the deliberate effort to lower his voice. "Tell me, should I ask you first why you broke into my house at night, or why you look so useless?"
Lan Yexing was startled by the can of juice. He came to his senses and slowly raised his head to look at the young man with a relaxed, playful and nonchalant expression on his face.
The young man lowered his head slightly and looked at Lan Yexing with a helpless and almost soft expression. His other clenched big hand reached out to the boy and stopped in front of him.
The slender fingers loosened, and a golden sheep pendant pulled by a rope appeared in front of Lan Yexing.
