Chapter 55
Simon School, Medical Center.
The concentration of pheromones released after Jiang Mu's differentiation was extremely high, and it affected the Alphas of at least three classes at that time.
These senior Alphas are currently receiving sedation treatment, and their mood and hormone levels have basically stabilized.
The three people at the center of the incident were isolated in three single rooms.
This was Jiang Mu’s first time using an inhibitor, and the side effects were very obvious on him, leaving him in a semi-comatose state.
Dennis's condition had worsened considerably. Not only did he suffer from injuries from the beating, but pheromone stress was causing him to feel dizzy, vomit, and choke with fear. This made the situation much more challenging for the doctors.
Lu Chao, the culprit who turned Dennis into this, could only stay in the ward until the pheromones in his body completely dissipated, so as not to go out and affect innocent Omegas.
"This is the pheromone test report for Jiang Mu and Lu Chao. Both students' pheromone levels have reached the rare S+." The doctor handed the two results to Jiang Yun, his expression filled with wonder and worry. "This is undoubtedly a good thing for Alphas. But for Omegas... I'm sure you know that higher pheromone levels generally represent a higher... sexual attraction for Alphas. Foreign Minister Jiang, you need to protect your children even more attentively than other parents."
"Yes, I know." Although Jiang Yun's face was cold, he was still friendly to the doctor in charge. "Thanks for the reminder."
The doctor was flattered: "You are so kind, Minister Jiang. This is what I should do."
Jiang Yun browsed the test report of the twins' pheromones, with a cold look between his brows.
Protect his children more carefully...what should he do?
Just like his parents did back then, when Jiang Mu was twenty years old, they helped him find an Alpha that he liked and was strong enough.
No, this is obviously because he is not sitting high enough and his methods are not strong enough.
Otherwise, no Alpha would dare to attack his child so blatantly - not even an ignorant minor would have such courage.
Jiang Yun had already learned what had happened from Lu Chao.
Ever since he and Joe Hede drifted apart due to their political differences, Dennis also developed a pronounced hostility towards Jiang Mu and Lu Chao at school.
Dennis's verbal provocation to Jiang Mu, when Jiang Mu didn't respond, quickly escalated into a physical confrontation, and finally turned into a pheromone fight.
He ignored the fact that the grudges among elders would subtly influence the interactions between children.
His two children would have completed their differentiation peacefully in the company of their fathers after their sixteenth birthday when the family was reunited.
And now…
“——Jiang Yun!”
Jiang Yun regained his composure and calmly suppressed his anger. He glanced at his watch and said, "It took you fifteen minutes to handle this. Your efficiency has declined, Colonel Lu."
"There's nothing we can do. They talk too much nonsense." Lu Huai ran to Jiang Yun and looked in the direction of the ward. "Where are the children?"
"Jiang Mu is still resting, don't disturb him for now." Jiang Yun handed the report to Lu Huai, "Go check on your youngest son who just differentiated into an Alpha first."
Lu Huai saw the [S+] rating on Jiang Mu's report. Although he had expected it, he still felt a little complicated: "Ah, I suddenly understand how my father-in-law and mother-in-law felt back then. No wonder I always felt that my father-in-law was unhappy with me for a while."
Jiang Yun pushed open the door of Lu Chao's ward again.
Pheromones between close relatives don't affect each other due to their genetic repulsion. Jiang Yun can smell his sons' pheromones, and to him, it's no different than any other scent in life.
The smell of Lu Chao's pheromones had dissipated for the most part, but once you walked in, it still felt like you had gulped down a large bottle of carbonated drink.
It is a refreshing aroma after being chilled, with the sweetness of caramel mixed with the freshness of citrus and a hint of spicy stimulation.
The young colonel, who was a fan of carbonated drinks, was very familiar with this taste.
Lu Chao rushed to the door and asked, "How is it going? Will that idiot be sent to the Alpha detention center?"
Lu Huai said: "It's just a matter of convenience."
"That's good." Lu Chao finally had an outlet for his resentment when he saw his Alpha father. "Dad! Look at what you've done to me—what the hell is a cola-flavored Alpha? It's so uncool! I'm going to be laughed at to death by the other Alphas. How am I, a school bully, going to survive in school?"
In the future, when the Alphas in school make plans to fight, the other Alphas will smell like liquor or cedar, but he will smell like sweet cola... What's the difference between this and others wielding sticks and knives, and he takes out a pink fairy wand?
Jiang Yun said coldly: "Say it again, Lu Chao, what are you talking about?"
Lu Chao hesitated for a while, and was forced to be narcissistic: "School...School Prince! I am the school prince!"
"Isn't this good?" Lu Huai comforted his youngest son, "School Prince, if you're thirsty in the summer, just drink some water. You can save half of your pocket money on drinks."
Lu Chao turned to Jiang Yun with eyes wide open, and said in disbelief: "Dad, listen to what you say, is this human language?"
Lu Huai looked at his wife for help: Help me, help me, I have worked so hard to gain some favorability in front of my sons, and I don’t want to lose it because of this kind of thing.
After receiving her husband's message, Jiang Yun spoke enthusiastically, "So far, there's no clear scientific evidence to prove that parents' food preferences will affect the taste of their children's pheromones."
Lu Huai clasped his hands together and made a "thank you for being there" gesture to Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun sneered secretly and added, "But when Colonel Lu was on his honeymoon that year, he really enjoyed drinking a bottle of carbonated drink every day."
Lu Huai: “?”
Lu Chao's brain didn't care about science and logic. After hearing what his father said, he was even more certain that it was all his father's fault: "It's all your fault, Dad—give me back a handsome pheromone!"
"Okay, okay, I'll quit drinking carbonated drinks, okay?" Lu Huai raised his hands in surrender. "From now on, I'll be like Foreign Minister Jiang, a mature Alpha, and only drink water and coffee every day."
Jiang Yun said, "Who cares if you quit smoking or not? I just don't want my 24-year-old husband to attend important events in the future and have him carry carbonated drinks everywhere he goes."
"Foreign Minister Jiang, what you said is a bit heartless." Lu Huai didn't indulge his wife at this time, and he had a "quarrel" with Jiang Yun. "When you used to drink milk wherever you went, I supported you very much."
Jiang Yun was silent for a moment, then said, "Milk is at least healthier than Coke."
Hearing this, Lu Chao couldn't help but feel a little scared. He suddenly felt that cola-flavored pheromones were not so unacceptable - at least it was better than milk!
When the smell of Lu Chao's pheromones had almost dissipated, Jiang Mu just woke up in the next ward.
Lu Chao followed his two fathers to his brother's ward. Suddenly, a pleasant, rich, sweet fragrance greeted him.
The first smell is a noble and dignified sweetness, not cloying at all, and even a bit cool.
But if you feel it carefully, you can smell the soft fragrance of the flowers, and the sweet aftertaste lingers slowly and lasts for a long time.
His brother had differentiated into a rose-flavored Omega—which didn't taste like milk either.
As soon as Jiang Mu opened his eyes, he saw his father, father and brother surrounding his bed, and the same worry was written on all three faces.
Jiang Mu was stunned for a moment, and instinctively reached out to Jiang Yun: "Dad, you're back... I'm sorry, we seem to have gotten into trouble again."
Jiang Yunhui held Jiang Mu's hand and said softly, "No, you have never caused any trouble."
Lu Huai asked: "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
Lu Chao said: "Brother, if you want to drink Coke, you can come and suck me!"
Jiang Mu smiled, leaned closer to Jiang Yun's arms, and said in a muffled voice: "Dad, I want to go home."
Lu Huai confirmed with the doctor that Jiang Mu was in good condition and could go home to rest, and immediately said, "Hey babies, it's time to go home."
The newly bought coupe finally received its two little owners.
Jiang Mu was still a little weak. Jiang Yun sat with him in the back seat, letting the boy rest his head on his thigh.
In a daze, Jiang Mu suddenly called Jiang Yun: "Dad..."
Jiang Yun: "Hmm?"
Jiang Mu: "Will the estrus period in the future be more uncomfortable than it is now?"
Jiang Yun didn't know how to answer his son's question, so he could only touch Jiang Mu's head and said, "I'm used to it, it's okay."
Lu Huai sat in the driver's seat and couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yun in the rearview mirror.
Lu Chao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, joined the group chat. He asked Lu Huai, "Dad, is it difficult for Alphas to endure their susceptible period? I saw online that many Alphas become crybabies during their susceptible period."
Lu Huai shrugged and said, "Those are the Alphas. I never cry during my susceptible period."
Jiang Yun was silent for a while, thinking that to some extent, Lu Huai was not lying.
Jiang Yun's communicator kept lighting up all the way, but there was no response from Jiang Yun.
The person who requested the communication seemed to have given up on meeting him in person and instead sent him a text message.
Qiao Hede: [Jiang Yun, from what I know about you, you wouldn't argue with a minor.]
Jiang Yun's eyes dimmed slightly, and he uttered the three words "not so much".
Without waiting for Qiao Hede's response, Jiang Yun sent another message: [I will only treat his elders with the same respect]
There was complete silence on Joe Hurd's end.
Seeing Jiang Yun's expression, Lu Huai guessed what had happened and said, "Although I don't know your teacher as well as you do, I don't think he will take any action to settle this matter."
Jiang Yun nodded and agreed, "The teacher knows he can't resolve this matter quickly. Since the facts can't be changed, he might as well use this opportunity to expose the scandal of Otilia and her husband condoning their son's school bullying. He can also set an example by sending Dennis to Alpha Prison, thus shaping his image as someone who 'sacrifices relatives for the sake of justice' and thus win over more voters."
Lu Chao seemed to understand what he said, "So, no matter what, I'm going to go to that stupid Alpha Control Center, Dennis?"
Lu Huai hummed, and said nonchalantly, "Then our two families have completely torn their faces apart."
The grudges among elders will affect the children, and the grudges among children will in turn affect the elders.
After this incident, neither they, nor Otilia and her husband, nor Joe Hurd, could think of reconciling with each other.
Lu Chao didn't take Lu Huai's second half of the sentence seriously at all: "Okay, okay, then I'm relieved!"
After returning home, Jiang Mu reluctantly ate something in the company of his family.
Jiang Yun watched Jiang Mu fall asleep in his room. When he returned to the master bedroom, he heard the sound of running water in the bathroom.
The single bed had been replaced by a double bed ordered in advance, with two identical pillows lying quietly on it.
A watch and a communicator that didn't belong to him were randomly placed on the table. Besides his suit jacket, a much larger military uniform hung on a floor-standing clothes rack nearby.
Jiang Yun stood at the door, suddenly feeling inexplicably dazed.
Lu Huai poked his head out of the bathroom, squinting his water-filled eyes and asked, "Baby, where did you put the bath towel?"
Jiang Yun closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the sound of flowing water had not disappeared.
The Alpha in front of him did not disappear either.
The master bedroom where he had lived alone for seventeen years finally had the scent and traces of a second person.
Seeing that Jiang Yun didn't respond, Lu Huai called his name again: "Jiang Yun?"
Jiang Yun came back to her senses and walked towards her husband, her tone as normal as ever: "The bath towel has seen you, but you haven't seen it yet - wait a moment, I'll help you get it."
