Cheng Che ran into Zhou Moning and Jian Yan just outside Zhou Zhou’s ward.

Zhou Moning and Jian Yan both looked like they were in their early thirties. And if someone said they were younger, people would believe it. Zhou Moning had a cold and imposing demeanour, while Jian Yan had gentle and handsome features.

Cheng Che didn’t hesitate or avoid them. He stood face to face with them in the corridor and nodded slightly, saying, “Hello, uncles.”

“I’m sorry,” Cheng Che said, raising his eyes. “It’s unfortunate that we’re meeting for the first time under these circumstances. I’m sorry.”

Jian Yan held Zhou Moning’s hand from behind and quickly spoke with a gentle smile, “Let’s not talk about this. Is your hand still hurting?”

“It’s much better. Thank you, uncle,” Cheng Che replied. He then looked at Zhou Moning. “Uncle Zhou, I…”

“Let’s not talk about it. I know you’re also feeling bad,” Zhou Moning waved his hand. “Go in and see Zhou Zhou. We’ll follow his lead.”

Cheng Che nodded and bid them farewell. He then stepped aside and watched as they took the elevator. He then walked to the ward.

He had never thought that knocking on a door required courage. But at this moment, he felt that way. He found it difficult to face him.

“Why did you suddenly hold my hand just now? Afraid I’d hit someone?” Zhou Moning asked Jian Yan as they stood in the elevator.

“No. With your good nature, I’m not worried,” Jian Yan smiled and then reached for Zhou Moning’s hand again. “I just wanted to hold your hand. Is that not allowed?”

Zhou Moning made a sound and squeezed Jian Yan’s hand hard. “If you had been this sweet-mouthed before, I wouldn’t have been so bitter inside.”

“That was a long time ago,” Jian Yan still smiled. “What have I done wrong to you all these years?”

“Nothing at all,” Zhou Moning held him as they walked out of the elevator, sighing, “I’ve been incredibly lucky to marry you.”

“Come in,” Zhou Zhou said.

Upon hearing that soft, hoarse voice, Cheng Che felt a stab of pain in his heart. Yesterday, when he was struggling under the influence of omega pheromones and couldn’t control himself, he heard Zhou Zhou’s call. He heard Zhou Zhou crying and saying he was in heat. But at that time, Cheng Che couldn’t do anything. He couldn’t say a word. All he could do was bite his lip hard to suppress himself, watching helplessly as Su Han hung up the phone.

It was also Zhou Zhou’s phone call that brought Cheng Che back to his senses. He immediately bit down hard on the back of his hand. Realising that even the intense pain on his skin couldn’t resist the omega pheromones, Cheng Che decisively smashed the vase on Su Han’s head.

Cheng Che opened the door and saw Zhou Zhou leaning against the pillow, looking out the window.

It was the same tree with swaying branches. It was tall and lush.

Zhou Zhou tilted his head, revealing his neck wrapped in bandages. Without turning his head to look back, he just said, “It rained heavily yesterday.”

Cheng Che slowly walked to his bedside, just looking at his profile, and said, “Yes.”

Zhou Zhou turned his head back. His gaze fell on Cheng Che’s bandaged hand. He opened his mouth as if hesitating for a second, then finally asked, “What happened to your hand?”

Cheng Che’s fingertips trembled almost involuntarily. He hadn’t felt much pain before, from biting himself to bandaging the wound, it all felt numb, as if he had no sensation. But now, just being asked so casually by Zhou Zhou, Cheng Che suddenly felt the pain from his wound deep in his bones. It even made his heart ache slightly. It tortured him, making him want to say to Zhou Zhou: It hurts, it hurts so much. Can you hold me? Hold me and the pain will go away, Zhou Zhou.

But now he couldn’t say anything. And there was no need to. Compared to what Zhou Zhou had endured, his own injuries were not worth mentioning.

“It’s nothing. Just a scratch,” Cheng Che heard himself say.

“Be careful in the future,” Zhou Zhou said.

His dads didn’t say anything and he didn’t ask. He had no energy to dwell on anything now.

“Zhou Zhou…” Cheng Che frowned and spoke, looking at the wound on Zhou Zhou’s lips caused by his own bite. Cheng Che really wanted to reach out and touch it, to ask if it still hurt.

Zhou Zhou interrupted him gently, “Please, have a seat.”

Cheng Che’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He sat down on the sofa by the bed.

“I don’t want to hear it, Cheng Che,” Zhou Zhou said softly. “I know it’s not your fault. But I’m so tired right now. Can we talk about this after I feel better?”

Cheng Che looked at his pale face, momentarily speechless.

“It’s almost the college entrance exam, you know? I’ve been working hard. When you taught me chemistry, I was really focused.” Zhou Zhou looked down at the IV tube on the back of his hand. His voice was low. “I’m not some rich kid who indulges in luxury. That kind of life isn’t suitable for me. I think a relaxed approach to studying and life is good enough.”

“So, until the college entrance exam is over, let’s focus and not contact each other, okay?”

Cheng Che lifted his eyes, looking at Zhou Zhou with a slight movement in his gaze. Before coming here, he had thought about some possible scenarios. Zhou Zhou might cry and say how difficult it had been for him. Or he might ask where Cheng Che had been and what had happened. He might even get angry and say he never wanted to see Cheng Che again. But Zhou Zhou’s calmness was somewhat unexpected. He even set a deadline, until the end of the college entrance exam.

Cheng Che couldn’t help but want to ask him: After the college entrance exam, can we go back to how we were before? Can you promise me that?

But he knew he didn’t have the right to ask Zhou Zhou for any promises. He really wanted to stay by Zhou Zhou’s side. But now Zhou Zhou couldn’t face him as usual.

He lowered his eyes and reached for Zhou Zhou’s hand. Zhou Zhou’s fingers trembled. But he didn’t pull away.

Cheng Che took Zhou Zhou’s thin hand and lightly kissed the back of it. There was no longer any trace of the strawberry milkshake pheromone on it. But Cheng Che still felt reluctant to leave. He whispered, “Okay. After the college entrance exam, I’ll come find you.”

Cheng Che was discharged from the hospital at noon. His grandfather wanted to see him so Cheng Yan came to pick him up.

Zhou Moning and Jian Yan rested in the morning and came over at noon. They accompanied Zhou Zhou until a little after three in the afternoon. Then, Zhou Moning and Jian Yan went to see some old friends in the city. They would come back for dinner.

Near dinner time, Yu Yang and Jin Wuqi came to the hospital.

The two forgot to buy fruit, although there were already many fruits piled up in Zhou Zhou’s ward. However, Jin Wuqi insisted on sending Yu Yang off to buy more.

Yu Yang obediently went out to buy some fruits again. Zhou Zhou ate the tofu meatballs they brought him. Jin Wuqi sat by the bed, chin in hand, smiling at him. “My dear Zhou Zhou, eat more. Get well soon and go back to studying.”

“It won’t delay the college entrance exam.” Zhou Zhou took a sip of soup and smiled. “I asked the doctor. If I recover well, I can be discharged in less than half a month.”

“Where do you want to go for university?”

“I’m thinking about the City A Research Institute. Although most of the top programs there are in chemical research, the institute offers a wide variety of majors in other fields as well. The development is good. And the resource allocation is relatively fair. I think I can find something I like there,” Zhou Zhou said.

“I’ll be relieved if you have this plan. When the time comes for your enrollment banquet, I’ll be there to give you a red envelope,” Jin Wuqi said, pinching Zhou Zhou’s earlobe playfully.

He never mentioned Cheng Che. When Cheng Che was discharged, Jin Wuqi was also there. Seeing Cheng Che’s demeanour, Jin Wuqi could already guess what Zhou Zhou had said to him. Jin Wuqi fully understood Zhou Zhou’s decision.

Whether disappointed or not, it was just that Zhou Zhou needed time to calm down. Regardless of the final outcome, this period was necessary for him to experience on his own. Jin Wuqi understood this very well.

Yu Yang came in with a bunch of fruits. He learned the situation from Jin Wuqi and didn’t want to talk about irrelevant things. So he said, “I bought milk tea, cold, with cheese foam. It’s delicious. Unfortunately, you can’t drink it now, Zhou Zhou. Hahaha…”

Zhou Zhou looked at Jin Wuqi. “Can we kick this alpha out?”

Jin Wuqi turned to look at Yu Yang and squinted his eyes. He smiled. “We can. But I don’t want to.”

Yu Yang blushed and almost choked on the boba from his milk tea.

Zhou Zhou: “I want to kick both of you out now.”
