I Have To Love【Abo】 Chapter 33
byYanghua Xieqiao
This year’s pharmaceutical conference is being held at the North Campus Conference Center of Tancheng University. The text screen at the main entrance of the conference center scrolls with the theme of today’s conference, “The 55th Tancheng School-Enterprise Medical Exchange Conference.” On the surface, it is an exchange, but in fact, the school reports new research results to attract corporate investment. Su Tai attended the event as one of the investors.
Thinking that this was Xie Qiao’s school, Su Tai felt bright, but also felt a little regretful unconsciously. If Xie Qiao was at school, he could go to the library or classroom to pick him up after class and experience the student life in China.
Before the meeting, everyone was chatting socially, and Su Tai was no exception, chatting with several professors about professional matters.
An energetic old professor who looked to be 50 years old talked endlessly about the latest research project, which was about a new type of cancer specific drug.Diseases are constantly changing with the evolution of human beings. God does not seem to have given immortality to any creature on earth. Fortunately, human medicine continues to advance.
These old scholars talked endlessly, and were well versed in timely human relations and sophistication. Seeing that Su Tai was a little silent, they turned to chatting about daily life. Su Tai heard a lot of embarrassing things about college students, and wondered whether students who studied law were as interesting as medical students.
“Xiao Liu from your unit is very serious. When it comes to research, none of my graduate students can match him.” The old professor is Hengling’s special consultant and is very familiar with people in the medical research institute.
Su Tai had some impression of this Liu Gong. He always wore black-rimmed glasses and was serious about his speech. He smiled and said: “He is really serious and he is very good at what he does.”
“Well, those who do research have to be very sharp, and only by perseverance can we achieve results.”
Standing next to him was another associate professor, younger, thinner, and a beta. “I teach freshmen, and they are still very active. Each generation is different.” Thinking of the lively freshmen, he couldn’t help but have a headache.
Su Tai: “Everyone has his own strengths.”
The old professor pointed at the young professor and said to Su Tai, “Do you know what he has been doing recently?”
Su Tai raised his hand to signal him to say, “What?”
“In September or October last year, he set his sights on the flowers downstairs belonging to the family members of Shangnan School. He insisted on finding the flower growers and learning from them.”
Su Tai: “Sounds interesting. Is it some kind of rare species?”
The young professor said: “I’m just bored in my free time. The old man is really good at planting flowers. He planted more than a dozen kinds of flowers in a small area of three square meters, and they are all lush.”
Thinking back to the scene I saw in October, a small area downstairs was full of all kinds of flowers, including orchids, roses, hydrangeas, and roses. More than a dozen kinds of flowers looked like a garden in a fairy tale book in the sunshine.
“Where you are studying flowers, he is studying flower toxin vaccines.”
This sentence made Su Tai interested, “Flower poison? What kind of flower?”
The young professor replied: “It was also by chance. That day I saw the old man planting two one-meter-high yellow datura plants in the shade downstairs. The flower shape is like a morning glory, with hanging flower heads and thick branches. This flower is rare in mandala, because the whole plant is poisonous and no one grows it. It was also the first time I saw this flower in the city. I happened to be researching special poison vaccines, so I came up with the idea of researching it.”
Su Tai was particularly impressed by the word datura and couldn’t help but want to talk more, “There are also datura flowers in pheromones. Is there any difference between the two?”
In biological evolution, this kind of medicinal or toxic pheromone is only available to alphas with excellent physique and talent. Omegas only have fresh or fragrant floral scents, and roses are very common.
Generally speaking, flower-type pheromones are no different from real flowers. They are non-toxic and harmless, and smell fresh and pleasant. Taking into account the huge gap between humans and plants, special flower-type pheromones mostly inherit the fragrance and some of the functions of the plant itself. However, once the alpha holding this type of pheromone is threatened, it may release more powerful medicinal properties or toxicity than the plant.
“The toxicity of datura pheromones is not as good as that of real flowers. It will only explode when the holder’s pheromones are unstable or under extreme panic defense, causing hallucinations and toxicity. Anesthetics made from it need to be purified before they can be used by users.”
“Mr. Su also knows about these?”
“I just heard someone mentioned it and found it interesting.” Su Tai paused and then asked, “If pheromones poison people, does it have the same effect as real flowers poisoning?”
“The principle is the same as the existing cases. The poisoned people all have dry mouth and mouth, hoarse voice, and hot skin. The symptoms usually disappear within 24 hours, and most of them die in coma. There is one difference. This type of pheromone belongs exclusively to alpha. The oppressive pheromone in anger will make the victim’s face turn white, and the symptom of flower poison itself is a flushed face.”
Su Tai frowned, remembering Xie Renqing’s symptoms before his death, the same difficult and slow breathing, earth-colored face, and frighteningly hot skin. He thought it was caused by an omega in heat, but when he thought about it carefully, an omega in heat would not be in that state.
“Mr. Su?”
Su Tai came back to his senses from his brief thoughts. Maybe he had remembered it wrongly over the past many years, “Oh, it’s nothing. I’m also a little curious about your research. I’ll ask you for advice when I have time in the future.”
“Of course.” The young professor’s latest project is in need of investment. With such a large sum of money, he doesn’t have to worry about research expenses. “Mr. Su, if you want to ask anything, you can always talk to me.”
The meeting was long and boring. Su Tai stayed for a while at the beginning and excused himself to leave due to company matters, leaving his secretary here to replace him.
The black Audi drove unhurriedly towards the outskirts of the city. Su Tai couldn’t make up his mind along the way. Guessing made his hands and feet numb. He dropped the car and entered Su Kun’s courtyard. There were some issues that only Su Kun knew about.
It was quiet after the New Year. Su Kun was pruning plum blossoms in the garden, which was Mei Yuren’s favorite flower during his lifetime. The two were married in a family relationship. Su Kun followed his father’s promise and married a man who was the head of the household. The less he cared about the loss, the more heartbroken he became. When he fell in love with his beautiful wife, he became terminally ill.
Mei Yuren did not forgive Su Kun until his death. Su Kun went crazy, abandoned Su Tai in the mandala and hid abroad for two years.A few days after returning to Mandala, I met Xie Renqing. He thought that people were resurrected, and the clan could not stop him from marrying into his family. He forced Xie Renqing to follow his wife’s preferences and planted a patch of white plums in the back garden of Su’s house. He forced Xie Renqing to pretend to be his wife in the white plum garden to accept his confession and forgive him, as if this would allow him to start over.
After moving here, he personally planted a garden full of red plums and took care of them as they grew up.
Su Tai didn’t think his father was a lover, and felt that he should have repented to his father like this for the rest of his life.
He stood outside the garden and watched people pruning branches. The handsome alpha back then now had more poise gained by years.
“Why are you here?” Su Kun held a handful of red plums in his hand and walked up to Su Tai.
“Come see you.”
Su Kun chuckled, “The sun didn’t rise in the west today. Aunt Wang said you and Xie Qiao were fooling around. Do you want to be with him after checking?”
“Let’s go inside.”
“Have you checked Xie Qiao before?”
Su Kun paused as he walked forward and looked back at him, “Why should I check on him? I don’t have the time to check on a little baby. Your father told me about your marriage before he died. It’s all up to your own free will.”
His marriage to Mei Yuren started as a marriage, and he suffered a lot from it, so he abided by his wife’s last words. As long as Su Tai recognized the truth and still liked her, he would not stop her.
“You said no before.”
“Your dad may think I’m too bastard. He asked me in my dream not to embarrass you. This was the first time he came to my dream and he scolded me a lot.” Alpha rubbed the plum blossom petals with his slender fingers, his face filled with sadness, “Let’s get down to business, what did you want to ask me today?”
Entering the room, Su Kun carried a vase and put the red plums in it. The two of them entered the tea room. Su Kun handed Su Tai a cup of brewed tea. Su Tai took a sip before saying, “Before Xie Renqing’s incident happened, did Xie Qiao come back from abroad?”
Su Kun was confused, “Why do you ask this so suddenly? Wasn’t he abroad at the time?”
Su Tai met Su Kun’s eyes and confirmed that Su Kun was not lying. “It’s nothing. I just thought of it suddenly.”
Su Kun was obviously suspicious of his answer.
Su Tai regained his composure, “One more question, is Xie Renqing in heat during those days?”
“No.” Su Kun glanced at Su Tai and said, “Do you suspect that his death is related to Xie Qiao?”
Su Tai was surprised for a moment, “How could Xie Qiao be related to him when he was abroad at that time?”
Su Kun was silent for a while, then laughed, “You should ask Yan Liang. After all, he examined Xie Renqing’s body back then. You can’t just use him as evidence for Xie Qiao. Sometimes he will also be your evidence.”
“I have promised Yan Liang to leave him alone and not look for him again.”
“Are you keeping your promise or are you afraid?” Su Tai has been thoughtful, stable and intelligent since he was a child. He is a very good heir. He just followed his father’s kindness, which is completely different from him. “Atai, Xie Qiao knew that Yan Liang was a witness to his father’s death and watched him hide incognito., did not tell him the truth, and made him search for so many years before telling the truth under your instruction. He was not angry about this, and he did not kill Yan Liang to vent his anger. Is it really because of your face?How much love does a person have to forgive the enemy who killed his father? I have already said that he is not simple.”
“You have half of your father’s innocence and half of mine. I have trained you for so many years and know your way of doing things. You seem to be able to come and go with ease emotionally. Once you meet someone you like, you will accept death. You are not willing to assume the worst inferences about Xie Qiao. This is correct, but I… I am different. I will consider all logical assumptions. This is almost the only thing about me that you need to learn from.”
Su Kun looked at Su Tai’s tangled and lonely expression, with a pair of dark black pupils drooping down, much like his wife. Thinking of the deceased, he couldn’t help but feel sad.
His wife had endured it for so many years after falling in love with him. It wasn’t until he fell in love with him and cried and begged for his sincerity that he said she gave birth to Sutai because she loved him.
Su Tai never believed that Su Kun had not investigated Xie Qiao. It was just that he had not investigated everything, not nothing. “What else do you know?”
“That’s all. If I really knew that Xie Qiao was related to Xie Renqing’s death, would I bear the crime of killing Xie Renqing? Would I let him live well?”
There was a lot of public opinion that year, and some people even said that he was the fate of his wife.
Su Tai believed Su Kun’s words. He had always used unscrupulous means and would not take responsibility for Xie Qiao. If he knew that Xie Qiao was related to Xie Renqing’s death, he would have withdrawn him and sent him to prison.
“I know.” Su Tai stood up, “I’m leaving first.”
“Not staying for a meal.”
“No, the company still has something to do.”
This trip made Su Tai even more confused. His originally clear thoughts were intertwined and became inseparable.He lit a cigarette, lowered the window, and the cold wind rushed in instantly.
He smoked the cigarette one after another, and at this moment he really realized what it meant to be so upset. He couldn’t wait to find someone to prove Xie Qiao’s innocence, but found that Xie Qiao didn’t have any relatives except him.
Xie Qiao was originally a man of few words, and his misfortune in childhood made people pity him. When he entered the Su family, he must have struggled even more. He was sold by his father for money, endured more than ten years of illness until he fainted and was only discovered. And Xie Qiao’s sincerity towards him…
The smoke made his eyes red. Su Tai touched his eyes, and his mood darkened with the dusk.
The sky is gray, and there are tall buildings on both sides of the road. They are like ferocious beasts standing on the ground, making people breathless.
He might have thought wrong. Xie Renqing might have taken the wrong medicine, or his slight heart disease might have worsened. It was not impossible.
The phone vibrated at the side, and Su Tai was startled.
“Brother, we are finished. Are you in the company?”
Su Tai coughed and said, “Attending a meeting at your school.”
“Okay, I saw a delicious dessert here and wanted to bring it back to you.” Xie Qiao grabbed a bare twig at the edge of the garden, “I’ll bring it to you next time.”
“You take it, I’ll try to go back as early as possible.”
Xie Qiao laughed and was so engrossed in chatting with Su Tai that he didn’t notice a slightly tired alpha passing by.
It wasn’t until the alpha walked more than a dozen steps away that Xie Qiao turned around and saw the person, and was stunned for a few seconds.
“Why don’t you speak?”
“Oh, I just saw Yang Shucheng. He looked like he wanted to eat people in the court just now. He was very unconvinced.”
“It’s normal to be upset after losing my wife and losing my troops. The meeting is about to begin. Please pay attention to your safety when you go back.”
“I know.” Xie Qiao blushed, “I miss you, brother. I feel like I miss you so much after not seeing you for a day.”
“You can see it when you get home.”
