“Thank you, it’s much better. You go out first.” Lu Yunye started to chase people away. His voice was a little heavy, as if it was soaked in water and wet.
Shi Yi was a little confused, but he walked out obediently. Uncle Wang turned on the lights in the corridor, and the door suddenly became white, and then fell into darkness again.
Lu Yunye sat alone for a long time before slowly getting up and walking into the bathroom.
Top-level alphas have strong desires in all aspects. Especially just now, he couldn’t help but want to hug something to fill his arms, and then fiercely claim it for himself.
Even though Lu Yunye had received omega pheromone interference training in the army before, he still couldn’t suppress this impulse. He turned on the faucet and splashed some water on his face, then turned on the ice machine and made himself a cup of herbal tea.
Water droplets slowly gathered into a rivulet along his jawline, dropping down his face. Lu Yunye drank the tea in one gulp, chomping down on the ice cubes with steel teeth.
Bone-piercing coolness spread from the mouth to his entire body, finally suppressing the unreasonable impulse.
The medicated oil on the back was almost absorbed, so Lu Yunye found a loose gray bathrobe and put it on. He casually fastened the button around his waist. His solid chest muscles squeezed open the neckline, full of male pheromones, ready to burst out at any time.
Shi Yi waited downstairs for a long time but no one came down, so he boredly played with the spider plants beside the table.
His fingers are slender and flexible, and he used his skill from manipulating scissors and fabric to make two braids. Finally, there was a sound from upstairs.
Shi Yi inadvertently looked up, and his breath sped up uncontrollably.
Lu Yunye was wearing a bathrobe, as if he had just washed his face and didn’t have time to wipe it off. He wasn’t as serious and upright like before, but rather lazy, like a well-fed lion patrolling his own territory.
His true nature was manifested in this unrestrained casualness. Apart from the shackles of good living habits, Lu Yunye is no different from other alphas, full of oppression, strength and explosiveness, which can make an omega nervous.
“What are you doing?” Lu Yunye asked.
“I… uh,” Shi Yi glanced at the braid in his hand, and didn’t know what to say for a while.
Lu Yunye: “Get ready to eat.”
Since the estrus period, Shi Yi and Lu Yunye have been eating the same nutritional menu. Today’s Lu Yunye was a bit scary, Shi Yi avoided looking at him, and concentrated on picking off the green peppers and carrots on the plate.
“Why don’t you eat vegetables?” Lu Yunye asked.
“…” Shi Yi snapped his chopsticks. He has always disliked eating green peppers and carrots, and had occasionally left them on the plate before, but Lu Yunye didn’t have any objections.
“Lu Yunye, why are you acting weird today?” He finally couldn’t help it.
Lu Yunye was silent for a while, then pointed at the mountain of vegetables Shi Yi hated with his chopsticks, “Eat it.”
Protesting is invalid.
“After eating, you can ask Uncle Wang for another bowl of glutinous rice balls1tangyuan,” Lu Yunye added.
Lu Yunye didn’t know what was wrong with him. It was as if Shi Yi had suddenly come alive in his eyes last night. The omega looks cold, but is actually very soft and easy to talk to with some cute little habits, like being a picky eater…
Shi Yi licked the corner of his mouth. He didn’t know why Lu Yunye liked dictating him recently, but tangyuan, a sweet food, has never been served on Lu’s table since his estrus arrived. It is too sweet and not good for health.
He likes eating it very much.
Sigh, Lu Yunye took advantage of him.
Shi Yi reluctantly picked up some carrots and ate them. It had a strange taste, which he didn’t like. Under Lu Yunye’s watchful eyes, he chose the next thing and finished the green peppers.
After the meal, Lu Yunye really asked the kitchen to make dessert, but there was only half a bowl, and there were very few rice balls.
Shi Yi wanted to cry but had no tears.
But he was in a good mood after the matter of Shu Wen finally was resolved. Shi Yi scooped up the small balls slowly, chewing very slowly as if he was reluctant to finish eating.
“Like eating?” Lu Yunye looked up at the newspaper on the sofa and asked suddenly.
“It’s okay…” Shi Yi smiled, and put the small porcelain bowl back on the table.
He doesn’t seem to have anything he particularly likes to eat, and even if he does, he won’t say it.
Shi Yi loved sweets when he was a child, and liked chocolate cakes the most. But after his two elder half-brothers found out, they would rob him again and again. Even if they didn’t like cakes, they would grab them and throw them away.
“Omegas are money-losing products!” Shi Yuan laughed and said.
“What is a money-losing product?” Xiao Yi couldn’t understand, but his intuition would not be a good word.
“It’s just that you, like your father, are parasites attached to the Shi family.” Shi Du continued unhurriedly. “You will be sold by your father sooner or later when you grow up.”
“I don’t want to be sold,” Shi Yi pursed his lips. “I want to be with Dad.”
“Then be good, don’t fight or grab, do you hear me?” Shi Yuan snatched the cake from him and threw it into a nearby trash can.
These have faded in Shi Yi’s memory following the accident, but he will never forget Shi Yuan and Shi Du’s malice towards him. Since then, Shi Yi will not say anything he likes, for fear of being discovered by others, and then he will no longer have the right to like it.
“Do you like small cakes?” Lu Yunye asked suddenly. He remembered that Little Peach liked to eat chocolate cakes.
“It’s okay…” Shi Yi repeated. “I prefer sweets.”
“Hmm.” Lu Yunye didn’t ask any further, probably all omegas are the same, and like to eat sweet and greasy foods.
After finishing the dessert, Shi Yi slept very soundly at night. The next morning he woke up refreshed and went to visit Shu Wen in the private hospital.
Shu Wen woke up from the coma in the middle of the night, and his complexion has improved a lot. He finished a small nutritional meal in the morning.
When Shi Yi arrived, Shu Wen was leaning on the hospital bed, and Shen Qing’an was standing beside the bed saying something.
Dr. Shen smiled slightly. Probably due to years of being in the medical industry, he was not as aggressive as most alphas. When he smiled, there were fine lines at the corners of his eyes, and he was handsome and strong.
But Shu Wen’s face remained expressionless, the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed. Shi Yi could see that he was unhappy.
“Dad.” Shi Yi pushed the door open. “How do you feel?”
“I’m much better.” Seeing his son, Shu Wen’s face relaxed a lot, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help curling up. “What are you doing here so early in the morning?”
“I heard that you woke up, so I came to take a look.” Shi Yi pulled up a chair and sat down. “What are you talking about?”
“The doctors here don’t give me inhibitors.” Shu Wen said, adding emphasis on the word doctor, making it obvious who he was referring to.
Shen Qing’an was a little helpless, “It’s best not to use inhibitors for your current physical condition. Inhibitors are drugs that inhibit gland cell activity, which is not conducive to the recovery of glands.”
Shu Wen: “I’ve been using it for a long time, and there’s no problem.”
Shi Yi sighed. Shu Wen is very stubborn, and doesn’t change his mind easily.
But he also knows that Shu Wen has been with Shi Jinpeng for so many years, and his body has been trained to be different from other omegas. His estrus is more frequent, and his body is more sensitive. He needs to inject inhibitors every few days until his body is bruised.
Shi Yi could only stand up and say to Shen Qing’an, “My father’s physical condition is quite special, you should be aware of it and loosen the rules a little.”
Shen Qing’an shook his head, “It is not recommended to use inhibitors unless absolutely necessary. After all, inhibitors have certain addictive properties, and long-term use will also lead to premature aging.”
Shi Yi was caught in the middle, so he had no choice but to come back and persuade Shu Wen, “Dad, let’s listen to the doctor, okay? If you have any reaction, tell Dr. Shen, and he will give you medicine.”
With a bitter face, he lay beside Shu Wen’s bed and whispered, “Father, the doctor won’t harm you. Don’t make me worry, okay?”
Shu Wen was strong all his life, and his only weakness was his son. After Shi Yi said a few words, his heart softened, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
“Hey, it’s still more useful to be a son,” Shen Qing’an exaggeratedly sighed. “I’ve spent all morning talking, but it’s not as useful as those coquettish words I used when I was young.”
Huh? Shi Yi raised his head and smiled – he doesn’t know how to act like a baby.
Shen Qing’an blinked at him.
Shi Yi admits he is more relaxed in front of Shu Wen and able to show his truest side. Even in his twenties, he still behaves like a child. Feeling embarrassed, he stood up from Shu Wen’s bed, pretending to be calm as he peeled apples.
Shu Wen looked at Dr. Shen with dissatisfaction. After his child grew up, he was rarely so close to him – yet this doctor’s words drove him away.
After stopping the infusion, Shu Wen was transferred from the hospital to the long-term recuperation area. Whenever Shi Yi came to see him, the meals were well-balanced and nutritious, and a little nurse would come to push him out to bask in the sun at regular intervals, so he was finally relieved and returned his attention to work.
Although the marriage between him and Lu Yunye has not been made public, there are some rumors in the circle.
The number of orders Feiyi received has increased significantly, and the number of cooperation projects that needs reviewing have also increased. Shi Yi worked overtime for several days in a row, and ate several dinners head-to-head with Fang Huiyi at the office table.
——–
Lu Yunye glanced out the window. It was almost evening, and the employees of Yunye Building walked out of the company one after another. The screen of his phone was on, and it was the latest message from Shi Yi: I’ll be home late, don’t wait for me to eat dinner.
Lu Yunye’s expression was a bit ugly. He could understand the busyness during the rising period of one’s career. After all, he had also experienced it himself. There are not many times when he needs to work overtime in this position now, at most it is going out to socialize, but he didn’t expect not to see his omega for several days in a row.
After knocking and entering, Tang Yi realized something was wrong with Lu Yunye. After carefully reporting tomorrow’s itinerary to Lu Yunye, she took out an envelope from the document bag, “The organizer also sent a fashion show ticket.”
Yunye Media is an entertainment company. Its artists participate in a wide range of activities, and often receive various tickets and admission passes. Lu Yunye almost never goes, and often lets Tang Yi give it to the staff. He never treated these things seriously before.
Tang Yi has already made a plan. If Lu Yunye doesn’t want it, she will give the tickets to the new employees in the secretarial department.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunye asked one more question, “Which show?”
Tang Yi: “It’s the recent Sika catwalk.”
Lu Yunye took it over, “Give it to me.”
Tang Yi: “…Okay.”
Maybe Lu Yunye wants to give it to a friend?
But she still asked considerately, “Do you want to free up your schedule that day?”
Lu Yunye: “Free it up.”
Tang Yi: ?
The high professionalism still made her restrain any thoughts of gossiping. “Understood.”
After Tang Yi walked out of the office, Lu Yunye took out the infield SVIP ticket presented by the organizer and took a photo.
Then he opened WeChat to find someone, and clicked to send.
[Yi: I’ll be home late, don’t wait for me to eat dinner]
