Chapter 122: You Little Ungrateful Thing.
Shao Chengxi felt a tightness in his chest, but he still gently tightened his arms, firmly holding the struggling Omega in his embrace.
He lowered his head, nuzzling Shu Lin’s feverish ear, his voice hoarse and unrecognizable: “Baby, it’s me…”
Shu Lin unconsciously pushed back, his small face flushed with fever and filled with resistance.
Shao Chengxi’s heart ached terribly, but he never let go, only continuously releasing the icy aura fused with his special pheromones.
Gradually, that clear and cool scent with a hint of unfamiliar comforting pheromones began to work.
Shu Lin’s struggle weakened, his eyelashes fluttered, and he opened his eyes in confusion.
He called out the name of the person he missed most in his heart, his eyes, hazy with fever, reflecting Shao Chengxi’s face.
Shao Chengxi’s breath hitched.
This was Shu Lin’s subconscious, an instinctive reaction to that special pheromone.
His Adam’s apple bobbed as he responded softly.
Hearing the response, Shu Lin immediately clung to him like a small animal that had found its home.
His burning cheeks rubbed against Shao Chengxi’s neck, his nose greedily sniffing the scent.
His moist lips randomly pressed against the Alpha’s Adam’s apple, the soft touch causing Shao Chengxi’s body to stiffen.
He cradled the back of Shu Lin’s head, his voice tight: “Baby, look again, who am I?”
Shu Lin blinked in confusion, his chaotic thoughts seeming to clear for a moment: “Bro… brother?”
Then he wrinkled his nose, taking a deep breath near the gland as if to confirm something, “No… it’s husband…”
This sentence was like a spark, instantly igniting the desire that Shao Chengxi had suppressed for so long.
He suddenly pressed Shu Lin into his arms, lowering his head to kiss those lips that were unusually soft due to the fever.
“Mmm…” Shu Lin was breathless from the kiss, but surprisingly did not struggle. Instead, he actively wrapped his arms around the Alpha’s neck, responding clumsily.
Shao Chengxi was going crazy.
His Omega had finally accepted him again, not only obediently allowing him to kiss him, but also actively calling him husband.
The worry, jealousy, and grievances of the past few days all turned into a surge of love at this moment.
“Baby is so good…” he murmured against Shu Lin’s lips, his fingers gently stroking his neck, “Say it again?”
But Shu Lin suddenly pouted, burying his face in his chest with a pitiful expression: “Husband… I feel so uncomfortable…”
This “husband” spoken with a sob directly broke through Shao Chengxi’s defenses.
He quickly adjusted his position, allowing Shu Lin to lean more comfortably in his arms, his large hand gently patting his back:
“Husband knows, baby, just bear with it, it won’t be uncomfortable soon…”
Outside the ward, Mu Zi, who had seen this scene through the observation window, silently drew the curtains.
Turning to Shu Jingcheng, who looked worried, she gave an “OK” gesture: “The pheromone fusion is perfect, and his temperature has already started to drop.”
Everyone felt relieved and quietly left.
Leaving the time and space to the young couple in the ward.
Inside the ward, Shao Chengxi was enjoying the long-awaited tenderness.
His little Omega was hanging on him like a koala.
One moment he would raise his small face and ask for “brother kiss,” and the next he would simply suck on his finger, mumbling “husband” in a daze.
Shao Chengxi’s eyes darkened, his fingertips pressed against Shu Lin’s soft lips, his voice low and dangerous:
“Baby, once your fever is gone… Husband will take good care of you.”
How painful and depressed Shao Chengxi had been in the previous period, so much darker and more celebratory was he feeling inside.
His baby had finally returned to his side.
Shu Lin’s fever broke quickly, as if his previous weakness was just an illusion.
His skin glowed with a radiant luster, his eyes were as bright as stars, and he was incredibly beautiful.
But this energetic appearance was entirely used on clinging to Shao Chengxi.
“Husband, feed me fruit.”
“Brother, carry your baby to the window to bask in the sun.”
This call was so soft and sweet that it made Shao Chengxi’s pen slip as he was signing documents, leaving a long ink mark on an important file.
Shao Chengxi was happy to indulge him.
He wished he could move his desk into the ward, just so he could catch the Omega who would pounce on him at any moment.
Even when Shu Jingcheng came to visit, Shu Lin was absent-minded, neglecting him, his eyes only on his Alpha.
Now it was Shu Jingcheng’s turn to feel jealous.
“You little ungrateful thing,” Shu Jingcheng muttered sourly.
But he saw his son being coaxed by Shao Chengxi’s pheromones into a daze, his face flushed as he burrowed into the other man’s neck.
The old father couldn’t bear to watch and could only shake his head and sigh, turning to look at his daughter in the next ward.
Shu Lingxiao’s treatment was progressing slowly.
Her condition was not as urgent as Shu Lin’s, so it was safest to receive pheromones in batches through an injector.
During this time, Shao Shiyan stayed by her side, handing her water and blankets, acting like a diligent large dog.
“Sister, does it hurt?” He stared at the injector on the back of Shu Lingxiao’s neck, his brow furrowed so tightly that he could kill a fly.
Shu Lingxiao glared at him: “What is an Alpha afraid of?”
But as soon as she finished speaking, the whirring of the injector made her fingertips tremble.
Shao Shiyan quickly grabbed her hand: “Sister, don’t hold back, pinch me if it hurts.”
Shu Jingcheng stood at the door, watching his daughter’s ears turn red, but she didn’t shake off the hand. He rubbed his temples with a headache.
He had long seen Shao Shiyan’s feelings for Shu Lingxiao and thought his daughter would ignore this Omega who was five years younger than her.
Now it seemed the situation was not good.
One by one, they were all entangled with the Shao family’s sons. What would he do in the future?
Shu Lin stayed in the hospital for another day for observation, and his fever did not return.
After Chen Mingyuan gathered a team of experts to confirm, he had fully recovered, and even the latent pheromone deficiency had been completely cured.
It could be considered a blessing in disguise.
On the day of his discharge, he was like a happy bird, holding Shao Chengxi’s hand and skipping along.
When passing Shu Lingxiao’s ward, he leaned against the door frame and poked his head in: “Sister, I’m going home first!”
Shu Lingxiao on the bed was about to nod when she heard Shao Shiyan say faintly: “Sister, look at how Xiaolin and my second brother are a couple…”
“Shut up!” Shu Lingxiao gave him a glare.
Shao Shiyan pursed his lips and immediately fell silent.
He was afraid that if he said any more, he would be kicked out of the ward by Shu Lingxiao.
Being able to stay in the ward to take care of his sister was already a big improvement.
He was very content.
Slowly, at this rate, his sister would accept him sooner or later.
Yes, definitely.
The ward was quiet for a while.
“Shiyan…” Shu Lingxiao suddenly spoke, her eyes showing hesitation, “That… you, you saw, saw him, did you?”
Shao Shiyan immediately understood who she was referring to by “him.”
It was her and Shu Lin’s Alpha biological father.
Shao Shiyan didn’t beat around the bush: “I saw him. I oversaw the whole thing. I even said a few words to him.”
Shu Lingxiao exhaled, “…Then, how is he doing now? Has he remarried? Has he had any other children?”
