Zhou Zhou’s glands were ultimately preserved. But the doctor said they were severely damaged. Coupled with the effects of the potent suppressants, his body’s pheromone levels were completely disrupted, potentially affecting future fertility. Additionally, no ‘marking’ could occur until his pheromones returned to normal, to prevent any interference from alpha pheromones on omega recovery.

“The patient’s next heat cycle will confirm if pheromone levels have normalised. But fertility can only be determined after this cycle, following examination at the hospital,” the doctor explained. “Moreover, for the next heat cycle, he must not rely on suppressants. It must be endured naturally, whether with their own alpha or an alpha volunteer. Even if tools are used, not a trace of suppressant should be involved.”

Nearby, Cheng Che listened with his head bowed. His fingertips trembled slightly.

“Thank you, doctor, for all your efforts,” Zhou Qiao exhaled, feeling exhausted. “Is my brother awake now?”

“Not yet. He’s been transferred to the intensive care unit. Once he wakes up and if there are no complications, he can be moved to a regular ward. He probably won’t wake up for a while. You both should take a break,” the doctor explained.

“Thank you, doctor, for all your efforts,” Cheng Yan nodded, supporting Zhou Qiao’s shoulder.

Zhou Qiao stood outside the intensive care unit, looking at Zhou Zhou lying in bed with an oxygen mask on his face, surrounded by monitoring equipment. She still couldn’t imagine how her lively brother could lie so quietly in a hospital bed, nearly losing his glands.

“Qiao Qiao, go home. Bring some daily necessities for Zhou Zhou,” Cheng Yan gently suggested, putting his arm around her shoulder. “You should rest. I’ll stay here. I’ll let you know as soon as Zhou Zhou wakes up tomorrow.”

“I’ll wait here, Sister,” Cheng Che, who had been standing behind them, spoke hoarsely. He kept his gaze fixed on the hospital bed, unwilling to look away. His bangs were still wet. He looked tired and lonely.

Zhou Qiao continued to stare at the ward, saying to Cheng Yan, “Take your nephew home. My father will come tomorrow. If he doesn’t want to die, he’d better leave now.”

Cheng Yan sighed inwardly. He glanced at Cheng Che’s hastily bandaged hand. The wound looked too gruesome. At first glance, Cheng Yan even suspected he could see the bone. Cheng Che, however, insisted on waiting at the emergency room door. Cheng Yan had no choice but to ask a nurse to bandage it up first. The nurse was shocked and asked what had caused such a severe injury.

Cheng Che replied, “I did it to myself.”

Cheng Yan couldn’t persuade him, and neither could the nurse. The nurse insisted that the wound was too deep and needed to be disinfected and treated for tetanus immediately. However, Cheng Che stood still as if he hadn’t heard, coldly refusing to move. Cheng Yan had been patient for a long time. But now he let go of Zhou Qiao and grabbed Cheng Che’s wrist, leading him towards the elevator. He said in a low voice, “Come with me to get treated. If you continue like this, I’ll have Dad lock you up.”

Cheng Che’s eyelashes fluttered. He glanced back at the ward one last time before lowering his head and following Cheng Yan, mechanically shuffling his feet.

That night, Cheng Yan took Cheng Che home, had him take a shower, and then returned to the hospital. He persuaded Zhou Qiao to go home and rest. Then, he sat alone outside the ward.

***

In the early hours of the morning, Zhou Qiao, Zhou Moning, and Jian Yan came to the hospital together.

Yesterday night, when Zhou Qiao called Zhou Moning, he was still in a meeting at the company. So she called Jian Yan, who went directly to the meeting room to get Zhou Moning. The two of them booked a midnight flight and flew over. After getting off the plane, they came straight to the hospital.

Exhausted, Cheng Yan saw three people walking towards him at the end of the corridor. When he saw the alpha with a terrifyingly high stature and an intimidatingly cold expression, his drowsiness vanished instantly.

Jian Yan asked the nurse to open the door to the ward. He and Zhou Qiao went in. Zhou Moning took a glance through the observation window, then turned back to stare at Cheng Yan. “Where’s your nephew?”

Cheng Yan thought despairingly; It’s impossible to hide what happened to my nephew from Zhou Qiao’s father and the others. He just didn’t expect them to come so quickly.

“Uncle…” Cheng Yan stood up, “Cheng Che, he…”

“He better give a good explanation. Otherwise, I’ll turn your family upside down.” Zhou Moning glanced at Cheng Yan and then walked into the ward.

At this moment, dawn was approaching. Zhou Zhou had been unconscious for nearly ten hours. Feeling someone by his side, he struggled to open his eyes and saw his sister and two fathers by his bedside.

All the vulnerability and grievances rushed out uncontrollably when he saw his family. Zhou Zhou burst into tears. The effects of the anaesthesia had worn off so his gland was hurting as if it had been cut into countless pieces. He choked, “Dad…”

His breath turned into a mist inside the oxygen mask. Jian Yan bent down and gently touched Zhou Zhou’s face, comforting him softly, “Zhou Zhou, it’s okay. Don’t be afraid.”

Zhou Zhou sniffed and looked towards Zhou Moning, who had a cold expression. He struggled to raise his hand.

Zhou Moning frowned and reached out to hold Zhou Zhou’s hand. His heart, filled with anger, finally softened. He squeezed Zhou Zhou’s hand helplessly, “Rest well. Everything’s fine now.”

Cheng Yan called the doctor, who carefully examined Zhou Zhou. Afterward, the doctor removed the oxygen mask and stood up, saying, “Your situation is basically stable. You can be transferred to a regular ward in the morning.”

“Thank you. Please arrange a deluxe ward for us. There are many people here. We’re afraid of disturbing others,” Zhou Moning said.

The doctor nodded and made a note. He then gave some instructions before leaving.

“Let your nephew come to see me,” Zhou Moning said coldly, turning to Cheng Yan.

Cheng Yan looked uneasy as he held his phone. “Cheng Che… I can’t reach him right now…”

“Dad，don’t look for Cheng Che,” Zhou Zhou said softly. “Just stay with me, okay?”

Zhou Moning suppressed his anger and glanced at Cheng Yan. he then turned back to gently wipe away the tears from Zhou Zhou’s eyes. “Okay. We’ll all stay with you.”

“Be good. Rest a bit more,” Jian Yan held Zhou Zhou’s hand. “When you wake up, shall we have your dad cook you some porridge? Don’t you love his walnut and red date porridge?”

The walnut and red date porridge was something Zhou Moning learned to make for Jian Yan. But Zhou Zhou hasn’t eaten it for a while since his fathers left City A.

“Can I have some?” Zhou Zhou pursed his lips, smiling. He asked Zhou Moning, “Dad, will you make some?”

“I will,” Zhou Moning helplessly rubbed Zhou Zhou’s head. “You sleep now. And when you wake up, there will be porridge ready for you.”

“Mmm.” Zhou Zhou obediently closed his eyes. He was really tired, too tired to move. His glands still hurt. But he didn’t want his dads to worry. So he tried to push thoughts of Cheng Che out of his mind and drifted into sleep.

After they left the room, Zhou Moning patted Zhou Qiao’s head. “Alright, you should go back and rest too. Come back to see Zhou Zhou at noon.”

Zhou Qiao nodded. After her dads arrived, she seemed to have an instant source of support. To avoid involving Cheng Yan, she said to Cheng Yan, “Take me back home.”

Cheng Yan cautiously agreed. He didn’t dare to meet Zhou Moning’s eyes much now. So he could only say to Jian Yan, “Uncle, I will make sure Cheng Che comes to see you. Thank you for flying over…”

“Don’t say these useless things.” Zhou Moning interrupted him. “I just want to clear things up. You take Zhou Qiao back to rest. You haven’t slept all night. Go get some rest.”

Cheng Yan nodded.

“Cheng Yan, you’ve worked hard,” Jian Yan smiled at him. “Go back and rest with Qiao Qiao.”

“Okay, Uncle. I’ll take Qiao Qiao back first. Thank you all for your hard work.”

Before leaving, Zhou Qiao hugged Jian Yan with red eyes. Jian Yan hugged her back, patting her back. “Scared, huh? Don’t be afraid. We’re all here. Everything’s fine. Go back and rest.”

“You’re still a child,” Zhou Moning tapped Zhou Qiao’s head and finally smiled a little.

After the others left, Zhou Moning held Jian Yan’s hand and stood by the window, whispering, “If Zhou Zhou can still continue to take his college entrance examination, let him come back to our place to study. I haven’t taken good care of him all these years.”

“If it weren’t for the fierce family conflicts back then, you would definitely not have been willing to leave Qiao Qiao and Zhou Zhou here. Now that they have grown up, let them decide for themselves how to proceed. We have owed them for so many years. Let’s not control them anymore,” Jian Yan said.

Zhou Moning fell silent for a moment. But then nodded.

“Are you tired? If you need me, just have your assistant inform me. Why did you rush to the company yourself? If something happened on the way, how could I live with myself?”

“It’s not a problem since we’re all going to the airport together. It didn’t delay me much to come to your company,” Jian Yan sighed. “I was just too anxious at the time. If you had heard Qiao Qiao’s tone, I almost lost it.”

“Don’t worry, he’s finally out of danger,” Zhou Moning put his arm around Jian Yan’s shoulder. “Go back and rest. I’ll cook some porridge for Zhou Zhou.”

“Okay.” Jian Yan looked at Zhou Zhou in the ward for a few seconds with a soft gaze before leaving with Zhou Moning.
