A grateful thanks for reader K.T for the kofi O(≧∇≦)O

After Su Ling finished drawing the renovation plan, he looked up and met Gu Liheng’s eyes. He raised his eyebrows, “Why are you staring at me?”

Getting caught for staring, a slightly embarrassed expression appeared on Gu Liheng’s face. Then, his eyes fell on the holographic screen in front of Su Ling and he asked, “You’re done?”

Su Ling’s eyes curved up. He did not continue to tease Gu Liheng for changing the subject and started talking about his idea of transforming the spiritual plant room.

Gu Liheng nodded his head after hearing the idea, “Okay, I will get someone to change it tomorrow.”

In the evening, after dinner, Su Ling pulled Gu Liheng to go out for a walk. Gu Liheng glanced out of the window, the sky is not fully dark yet. His eyes flickered and he said, “I have a gift for you.”

Su Ling: “Gift?”

Gu Liheng uttered an En and led Su Ling to the front yard. The night lights were very bright, and Su Ling saw the speed car parked in front of the entrance right away. Speed cars are different from ordinary cars. It has 2 driving modes, either by land or by air. The metal shell of the dark blue speed car shone under the light. Its overall curves are smooth, and it looks very cool.

The sight of the speed car makes Su Ling’s eyes lit up immediately, and he turned around to ask, “It’s for me?”

Gu Liheng nodded, “En,” Seeing that Su Ling liked it, Gu Liheng had a smile in his eyes and suggested, “Shall I drive you around?”

Su Ling nodded immediately, “Okay!”

The two got into the car and Su Ling sat in the passenger seat beside Gu Liheng. As the car left the ground and getting further and further away, his eyes were bright with amazement and he was very excited, “Is it difficult to get a speed car driving license?”

“No, it’s not difficult.” When Gu Liheng spoke, he was facing Su Ling and didn’t even have to look at the control.

Su Ling laughed, “Then I must get a driver’s license as soon as possible.”

Gu Liheng: “I can teach you.” And so, he drove the speed car around the villa.

Su Ling watched the scenery outside the window for a long time. Then his gaze fell on the control interface.

Gu Liheng explained, “Speed cars have an automatic driving system just like ordinary cars, but sometimes birds fly by in the air. So, driving speed car demands more attention as the driver needs to make some adjustments from time to time.”

Su Ling nodded in understanding and listened carefully to his introduction of each button.

After flying around for more than half an hour and the sky has completely darkened, Gu Liheng drove the speed car back to the villa. Upon getting off the car, Gu Liheng took Su Ling’s hand and said, “Come with me to a place.”

Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “Where?” Didn’t they just come back? Gu Liheng led him through the living room. The lights in the living room went out behind them, and his vision instantly dimmed. Su Ling turned his head subconsciously but Gu Liheng shook his hand and held him by his waist. Then he(GLH) said in a deep voice, “Don’t be afraid.”

Su Ling’s heartbeat quickened by the tone. Suddenly realized something, he chuckled, “You got me out of the villa on purpose?”

Gu Liheng sighed slightly, “You managed to guess it? So there’s no more surprise?”

“I didn’t guess anything.” Su Ling said immediately.

In the darkness, the corner of Gu Liheng’s mouth raised, and he embraced Su Ling to continue walking forward, crossing the corridor, to the dark backyard. The moment they stepped on the grass in the backyard, the area in front of them suddenly lit up. Red roses filled the entire area and it was red color as far as the eyes can see.

“Eh…” Su Ling was stunned and was suddenly picked up to a princess carry by Gu Liheng. Startled, he quickly placed his hand on Gu Liheng’s shoulder.

Gu Liheng glanced at Su Ling and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you fall down.” He strode to the middle of the flowers and put Su Ling down.

They were surrounded by flowers, and sweet floral fragrance filled their nose. As soon as Su Ling’s feet touched the ground, ‘small lights’ flickered in the flowers, like fireflies. But these little lights were colorful; beautiful and dreamy. Su Ling was surprised, he stared at the little lights, trying to see what it was. At this moment, the person beside him suddenly stood in front of him and knelt down on one knee. Su Ling’s gaze immediately moved down. Even if he had guessed it before, his heartbeat still sped up uncontrollably.

Gu Liheng looked at him from below, his dark eyes were firm and affectionate. Holding Su Ling’s hand with his left hand, he raised his right hand and revealed a small black box in his hand. The lid opened with a flick, revealing the silver ring inside. Gu Liheng’s tone was serious and solemn as he asked, “Ling Ling, will you marry me?”

Su Ling leaned over and kissed Gu Liheng’s lips, “Didn’t you already know the answer?” He stood up straight and took out the ring. Then with a bright smile, he said, “Yes.”

Gu Liheng dropped a kiss on Su Ling’s hand and took the ring to put it on his finger. Su Ling moved his fingers, the ring fits snugly. Turning his wrist, he grabbed Gu Liheng’s hand and pulled him up.

Gu Liheng got up and hugged Su Ling, “I’m very happy.”

Amused, Su Ling asked, “You already know the answer, what’s so happy about it?”

Gu Liheng rubbed his fingers behind Su Ling’s ears and let go of him a little. Meeting his eyes, he asked, “Do you like this setup?”

Su Ling looked at the ‘small lights’ floating around and laughed. As a man, he had never expected such a dreamy marriage proposal. The effect of the setup did not shock him. What moved him was male god’s intention. He nodded, “I like it,” he smiled, “In fact, even without this step, I’m alright with getting married directly.”

Gu Liheng: “I don’t want you to feel wronged.”

“I won’t feel wronged by getting married directly,” Su Ling smiled at Gu Liheng. Then he asked, “Who gave you the idea?”

Gu Liheng: “I designed it myself.”

Hearing that makes Su Ling smile deeper. He stood on tiptoe and kissed Gu Liheng’s lips again, “What are these colorful lights?”

“Colorful bugs[1].” Gu Liheng replied, keeping his eyes on his face.

Having his curiosity answered, Su Ling held on to male god’s neck and said, “Since I have accepted your proposal, when do we get married?”

The young man’s unconcealed expectation made Gu Liheng’s eyes darker. The young man always showed his feelings for him straightforwardly. Gu Liheng’s heart felt warm, and his hand around the young man’s waist gradually tightened.

“The wedding takes time to prepare. I planned to have the wedding on 10th October, is that okay with you?” He wants to give the young man a perfect wedding.

Su Ling: “More than 2 months?” He blinked, “Can we get the certificate first?”

Gu Liheng looked at him deeply. Su Ling is not shy at all, he reasonably explained, “I have checked the information regarding permanent marking before. The process takes at least 3 days to complete. The higher our compatibility rate, the longer it takes. After marking, there is an indeterminate period of adaptation. Overall, the amount of time we need is at least half of a month.”

“In October, you will go to work and I will have to attend classes in university. We won’t have that much free time to adjust. Right now, this period of time is the most suitable… otherwise, you will have to wait until the winter vacation.”

Then, Su Ling leaned closer to Gu Liheng, their breath fell on each other, “Can you bear it until then?”

Every time they ‘connected’ deeply, Su Ling could feel male god restraining himself. Alpha has a strong possessive desire for their Omega, and permanent marking is a way of complete possession.

Gu Liheng’s Adam’s apple moved up and down, and he said in a deep voice, “We can get the certificate in advance.”

Hearing that, Su Ling’s eyes curved up in smiled, and he leaned in to kiss Gu Liheng. No matter what plot is written in the novel, he is the legal companion of male god in this world.

Before going to bed at night, the two determined the date to get their certificate, 2nd August. At that time, Tian Ling Fragrance Bar will be re-opened, and Su Ling doesn’t need to continue to harvest Redthorn Ball liquid for the Xiao family anymore, it is the most suitable time. In fact, it is not impossible to get the certificate even earlier. Just that after getting the certificate, their relationship will be legal and binding. Gu Liheng cannot guarantee that he can restrain himself from marking Su Ling permanently. In case he really did it, both of them will not be able to go out for some time afterward. He can’t be sure that there won’t be any trouble happening.

Soon, the day of Gu Ming’s trial has arrived. Su Ling and Gu Liheng went to Xiao villa to get the ball liquid. They didn’t stay any longer in the villa and went directly to Belle City court. They sat in the auditorium and not far away is Gu An, who looked pale, haggard, and sad. Mother Gu stood at the plaintiff’s bench, her hair was meticulously combed, and she had no makeup. She wore a black suit, making her complexion paler and weaker than usual. However, in the subsequent trial process, no one would underestimate her.

Regarding Father Gu’s case, there were both witness and material evidence. Gu Ming’s defense lawyer was sweating profusely, and the ending was nothing suspenseful. Gu Ming was sentenced to life imprisonment and Gu Ming fainted on the spot. This trial received widespread attention, but the whole process was very fast.

Walking out of the courtroom, Mother Gu walked up to them. Her gaze slid across their clasped hands, and she calmly said to Gu Liheng, “Ah Heng, I want to talk to you.”

Gu Liheng looked at Su Ling and said, “I will get the driver to take you back first.”

Su Ling nodded, “Okay.” He is not worried that Mother Gu will break them up. Today the murderer[2] is punished. It is normal for Mother Gu to say something to male god.

Mother Gu and Gu Liheng sat in the back seat of the car. They didn’t say a word as the car drove to the Qingdi Cemetery. Gu Liheng’s eyes moved slightly, silently following behind Mother Gu until they stood in front of Gu Yuan’s grave.

Mother Gu looked at the tomb in silence for a long time, and asked, “Are you sure you want to be with Su Ling?”

Gu Liheng’s tone was firm, “Yes.”

Mother Gu turned to look at Gu Liheng. After a while, she asked, “When is the wedding?”

“10th October.”

Mother Gu nodded, “You can go back.”

Gu Liheng looked at his mother and said, “I hope you can bless us.”

“I always thought that my education to you was very successful, and I was even contented that you succeeded in taking charge of the Gu family. You are outstanding…” Mother Gu was silent for a while. At this point, she closed her eyes and asked, “Do you hate me?”

She trembled and looked very fragile, much different from her previous strong image.

Gu Liheng hugged Mother Gu gently, “No, I don’t hate you. I know that it is very difficult for you too.”

Part of the reason why his childhood memories were terrible is that he was affected by his mother’s emotions. Those scoldings were often accompanied by screaming and crying. He is afraid of his mother, not only he is afraid of being scolded, but he is also afraid for his mother’s fear.

Gu Liheng’s tone as he said that was as usual, without any ups and downs, but Mother Gu’s eyes were red. She took a deep breath and stepped back, “You should go back,” she paused, “I planned to travel soon, so I may not be able to come back in time for your wedding.”

Gu Liheng’s eyes moved slightly, but he didn’t say anything else. He only reminded, “Take care and be careful in your travel.”

Mother Gu nodded, “You go first, I want to talk to your father.”

Gu Liheng asked the driver to take good care of Mother Gu and left the cemetery.

Mother Gu stayed for a long time. She talked about the things that happened these years, and also about Gu Ming’s disposal. Then she also talked about Gu Liheng’s marriage and her struggles.

“Ah Heng gets to know him because I need the Redthorn Ball liquid. I know that Giant Bear’s action has nothing to do with him, but as long as I think of you, I can’t forgive anyone. I lost the ability to think to all the things that are related to you.”

“I am taking the doctor’s advice to leave Belle to relax. When I come back, I will see you again.”

Su Ling sat in the living room and read the news on the Internet regarding Gu Ming’s sentence. When Gu Liheng walked in, Su Ling immediately looked at him and checked his expression.

Gu Liheng walked closer and rubbed Su Ling’s black hair. Then he sat down beside him and said, “It’s okay.” He briefly talked about his meeting with Mother Gu, “Mother will accept you in the future.”

Su Ling leaned over to circle Gu Liheng’s shoulder and poked his face with a finger, “I’m used to you being expressionless, but deep in your bones, you are a gentle person. Fortunately, no one noticed that before,” Su Ling smiled brightly. “You have been caught by me. Even if someone finds out now, it will be too late. You are mine.”

Gu Liheng grabbed the young man’s hand and dropped a kiss on it. Then he said with a smile in his eyes, “En.”

Su Ling moved his fingers slightly and smiled. After that, he pulled Gu Liheng up and said, “Help me check out the fragrance products. The fragrance bar is about to open so I have to choose the best one as the highlight.”

Banana: Yes, the title is Proposal~ Can’t let the title spoil you guys XD Sorry for that

[1] At this point, I felt like the author has completely given on his/her naming sense, lol
[2] Technically, Gu Ming is not the murderer but since the author wrote it like that… shrugged

Chapter 73 – Caught [OW]

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

Gu Liheng led Su Ling back to the living room. There were 3 rows of long hangers in the middle of the living room. Each hanger was filled with various styles of clothes. There are 2 sets of clothing for each style, the color is the same, but the size is different – those are clearly couple outfits. Su Ling immediately thought of the clothes he chose for male god and himself when they went out to play the day before. He laughed, “…The closet can’t fit all these.”

Gu Liheng doesn’t think that it is a problem to be considered and said, “Just pick what you usually wear and we’ll put the rest in the cloakroom.”

Amused, Su Ling said, “Rich people can afford to be willful!”

Gu Liheng looked calm as he said, “It didn’t cost much,” he looked at Su Ling, “Before I met you, money is just a number for me, and I don’t use much in general. I didn’t know what to buy.” His eyes moved slightly, “Am I boring?”

In Su Ling’s mind, he thought ‘is this the trouble of the rich’? But thinking about it carefully, male god’s lifestyle is quite simple. Unlike the ordinary rich second-generation, he doesn’t splurge on sports cars or other expensive things. Compared with the money earned, the money spent is almost negligible.

“I don’t think you are boring,” Su Ling joked with a smile, “but you looked like a human money maker machine.”

Gu Liheng: “I don’t care about the money. It’s just that I’m used to dealing with company affairs, and I like it.”

Gu Liheng has been in contact with the Gu family business since he was a child. He likes the feeling of strategizing in a business. Money is not what he values most.

Su Ling: “You are so suitable to be a president,” his eyes curled up, “but since you have made money, you should enjoy life better!”

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and said, “You have been with the company since you were young, and you have devoted most of your time to the company. In the future, you will spend more time thinking about your life and I will there to experience different things with you.”

Hearing that, Gu Liheng’s eyes turned gentle. He stroke Su Ling’s black hair and said, “Okay.” His young man’s concern filled his heart with warmth. He is looking forward to doing all kinds of things that he has never experienced with him.

Su Ling’s eyebrows curved with smiles and he pulled Gu Liheng to choose their clothes with him. Choosing 5 sets of clothing suitable to wear, for now, they hung them in the closet and Domi will put the rest in the cloakroom.

After choosing clothes, the two went to the fragrance making room. Thinking that he would be spending a lot of time in the spiritual plant room in the future, Su Ling got Domi to move in a single sofa and placed it beside the window in the spiritual plant room; specially prepared for male god.

“Call me if you need help.” Seeing Su Ling nodded, Gu Liheng sat down on the sofa.

Su Ling smiled and turned to look at the flower bud that is soaking in the growth fluid. The growth fluid was 10 times diluted with the vine liquid. According to Uncle Lóng, the bud couldn’t stand it if used directly with the vine liquid. The flower bud that was the size of a soybean is now the size of a green pea, and there is a twig about 2 cm from the top of the bud. With this growth speed, the flower bud should be able to plant in the soil tomorrow.

Next, Su Ling walked to the already grown Flower Bud Grass. Before he could touch the Flower Bud Grass, the leaves from Lopseed and Baby’s breath drew close to rub against the back of his hand. At this moment, the tip of the root wrapped around his wrist lifted up and swept away the leaves, making the 2 plants immediately retracted their leaves. Su Ling lightly squeezed the root in amusement before gently stroking the 2 plants. After that, he touched the top of the Flower Bud Grass branch. Using his pheromones to communicate with it, Su Ling harvested a small branch from the Flower Bud Grass.

Returned to the workbench, Su Ling first made a fragrance that hides pheromone smell with the vine liquid, and then made a special inhibitor with the branch. Both products have specific formulas and they are simple to make. Having fully equipped with high-tech machinery, Su Ling can’t go wrong. However, the fragrances he tried to make after that were not easy. He hadn’t officially studied how to make fragrances in this world, and he is still not clear about the properties of various spiritual plant raw materials, let alone which combination would smell unpleasant.

Fortunately, he has no shortage of spiritual plant raw materials. With the equipment he has, and randomly mixing the raw materials, he would find out the effect of the finished products. This is actually a very wasteful method. However, it is difficult for him to master the theoretical knowledge of spiritual plant and fragrance making in a period of time. Going through a lot of experiments are the easiest way to make fragrances. Su Ling found it very novel every time he checked the effect of a finished product because the result was unpredictable. He experimented the whole morning with great enthusiasm.

After lunch, Gu Liheng said, “Gu Ming has been arrested and the court will open a week later.”

Su Ling couldn’t help sighing in admiration, the efficiency in Planet Belle is sure fast.

Soon, this news became today’s headline. Su Ling checked the news before taking a nap and saw that many people were talking about it. Netizens lamented the darkness of the wealthy and expressed shame and disgust for Gu Ming’s actions in harming his own relatives. However, upon seeing the second most discussed topic, Su Ling’s eyes narrowed. That was Gu An’s post in his own Boyan: “Super shocked, I can’t believe this is true. Father and uncle are the two people I admire the most…”

Most comments under that post were sympathy. After all, Gu An was only 6 years old kid 20 years ago. Even if Gu Ming really harmed Gu Yuan, it probably has nothing to do with Gu An. Of course, some people ridiculed and questioned whether he knew about the crime but choose not to report it.

Gu Liheng holds Su Ling’s shoulders and glanced at the holographic screen, “Don’t read anymore, go and rest.”

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and asked, “Do you think Gu An knows?”

“Whether he knows or not, this matter will have nothing to do with him,” Gu Liheng said in a cold voice, “but the last accident definitely has something to do with him.”

Make sense, as the netizens said, Gu An was still so young at that time. Su Ling smiled and noticed that the hands on his shoulders tightened when he(GLH) mentioned the accident. He tilted his head and kissed male god’s face, pulling him to lie down, “Let’s rest together.”

Gu Liheng’s eyes moved slightly, and he enveloped Su Ling in a hug without doing anything else. After a nap, Gu Liheng received a call from Mother Gu and they discussed the matters related to the trial.

Su Ling listened for a bit and went to change into his swimming trunks. Coming back, he leaned against the wall and waited for a while, and found that the topic had already changed to some of Gu company’s projects. It seemed like male god could not finish talking for a while. Hence, he walked to Gu Liheng’s side, patted him on the shoulder, and pointed upstairs.

Gu Liheng’s gaze slipped past Su Ling’s pale body and saw that there are still certain ‘marks’ left on his body. That caused Gu Liheng’s throat to tighten, and he swiftly moved his eyes away before nodding.

Su Ling questioningly raised his eyebrows and went out of the bedroom to the top floor. Three-quarters of the top floor is occupied by the swimming pool. The blue sky and white clouds are reflected in the water, and the water is crystal clear. He took Xian Mo Yu out to put in the corner, and Lóng Mo Téng jumped from his wrist to Xian Mo Yu’s petals. Xian Mo Yu stretched its petals, and its roots were swaying in the air freely. It was very relaxing. There was a soothing fragrance wafting around, which was more intense than they were indoors. Lóng Mo Téng has also become much bigger; stretching its leaves and enjoying the sunshine. When Su Ling saw this, the thought that plants really liked sunlight flashed in his mind. He tested the temperature of the water before jumping into the water and started swimming freely. When his body was exposed to the surface of the water, his wet skin shone in the sun.

15 minutes later, Domi brought snacks and drinks and placed them by the pool, “Owner’s beautiful Omega, owner said to remember to take a rest.”

Su Ling kicked the water and slid gently to the edge of the pool. His breathing was a little quick as he said, “Thank you, I know.”

Su Ling laid down on the shore, with his back basking in the sun. He glanced at his pale arms and flipped them so more area is exposed to the light. It would be best if he could be tanned into wheat color, his skin is too pale right now. After a break, Su Ling took a swig from the drink. The familiar taste brought a smile to his eyes. This is Belle’s most famous energy drink and his favorite flavor. After drinking several sips, he kicked out at the wall of the pool, slid out, and continued swimming.

When Gu Liheng went upstairs, what he saw was the young man’s agile figure in the water. Pale skin, perfect body proportions, and the traces left by him that had not faded, all of which made his eyes turn darker.

Su Ling soon felt a blazing gaze falling on him. He floated in the water, smoothed his hair from front to back, and looked towards the door. His face was wet, making his eyebrows looked deeper, his skin paler, and his lips redder than usual. The combination gave him a soul-stirring charm.

Gu Liheng’s heart jumped. He has an urge to lock the young man up, not letting anyone see him. At the same time, a familiar heat surged in his body. He wanted to hug the young man tightly, kiss him hard, and possess his entire body.

Already very familiar with Gu Liheng’s aro-used expression, Su Ling raised his eyebrows and smiled, “Mr. Gu, your self-control has weakened yo.”

Gu Liheng looked into Su Ling’s eyes and did not refute his words. With a deep voice, he said, “Remember to take a rest, I will go down first.”

Su Ling: “You already got Domi here to monitor at me. Don’t worry, I won’t mess around.”

Gu Liheng took a deep look at Su Ling, then turned and went downstairs.

Su Ling did not ask male god to stay. Papa Xian and Uncle Long are here, and the frequency of them having s-e-x has been very high recently. He doesn’t want to go through the embarrassing process of applying medication at ‘that’ place for the time being. He leaned back and started to backstroke. In his field of vision are the broad sky and cotton candy-like white clouds. Su Ling is in a good mood, and thinking of male god, he curved his eyes happily. He worked hard to exercise also for the sake of his happy life with male god in the future.

Gu Liheng went down 2 flights of stairs, and the sound of water came from behind him. He sighed inwardly, his eyes deep. Some things must be done as soon as possible, otherwise, he may not be able to control himself. He quickly went downstairs and opened his bracelet to make some preparations.

An hour later, Su Ling returned to the bedroom from the top floor. He briefly glanced around the room but didn’t see male god. He took a shower, changed into casual clothes, and went to the study.

Gu Liheng was sitting in the study to deal with some business affairs. When he saw Su Ling, his brows furrowed and he said, “Don’t let your hair wet like this.”

Su Ling: “It doesn’t matter since I’m not going to sleep now. It will dry soon.”

Approaching nearer, Su Ling propped his hands on the table, and looked at Gu Liheng, “Can I remodel the spiritual plant room?”

Gu Liheng did not ask for the reason and agreed, “You can do whatever you like. Do you want to hire a designer as well?”

Su Ling shook his head, “No, I already have an idea,” he thought for a while and asked, “have all the villas nearby been sold?”

Gu Liheng: “En.”

Su Ling regrettably said, “It’s a pity then. I was planning to buy one nearby.”

His eyebrows furrowed, Gu Liheng grabbed Su Ling’s wrist and asked, “Do you want to buy a villa?”

Su Ling nodded, Gu Liheng continued to ask, “Why? You don’t want to live together?”

Su Ling: “Of course not. But before getting married, I have to have a bit of property in hand right? I can’t just marry you with empty-handed, right?”

“It’s okay,” Gu Liheng said, “you don’t need to buy anything. It’s enough as long as you are here.”

Su Ling smiled but did not agree. He stood on his ground and said, “I will take a look at nearby properties when I have time.”

Gu Liheng looked at Su Ling’s face and asked, “You don’t believe me?”

Su Ling looked at male god and explained, “If I don’t believe you, I won’t choose to be with you. This could be considered…a ceremony before marriage.” Getting married without preparing anything gives him a feeling like he is living off a sugar daddy[1]. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help laughing.

Gu Liheng’s eyes moved slightly, and he didn’t persuade the young man anymore. It’s fine as long as the young man believes in him.

Su Ling sat down opposite Gu Liheng and said, “You can continue to handle your business matter. I’ll start drawing a picture of the transformation of the spiritual plant room.”

His idea is simple. The wall where the window of the spiritual plant room is located can be made into an automatic door to facilitate the entry and exit of the spiritual plants. This way, as long as they want to bask in the sun, they can go out anytime to go to the garden or backyard, which is more convenient. After all, Papa Xian said it will take care of him for the rest of his life. He couldn’t let Papa Xian stay indoors forever.

[1] Not sure if anyone will confuse SL’s words but lemme explain. SL is a guy from Earth after all. That means his mindset is guys need to have property and be the breadwinner. In his mind, he felt like he is living off a woman’s money if he doesn’t have financial stability to prove himself :v

Chapter 72 – Conditions [OW]

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

Gu Liheng has an impression of Gu Ming’s special assistant. Special assistant Luo has been working with Gu Ming for many years.

Hua Cheng replied, “Yes.” He immediately added, “Before this, we found that his account had transferred a large amount of funds 20 years ago. The receiver was a temporary account, which has been canceled, and we are inquiring for more relevant information.”

Gu Liheng’s eyes changed slightly. 20 years ago? That is a very significant period. He asked, “Where is he now?”

Hua Cheng: “At my place, he came quietly after work.”

Gu Liheng: “Take him to the villa,” he paused, “Come at around 7.30 pm.”

Hua Cheng: “Noted.”

After taking a shower, Su Ling went downstairs and saw Gu Liheng expressionlessly sitting on the sofa. Walking to the sofa, he leaned over the back at male god’s neck, “Why do you look upset?”

Gu Liheng held Su Ling’s hand and tilted his head. A refreshing fragrance wafted from the young man. His expression turned slightly softer, “Waiting for the special assistant working for Gu An’s father to come.” He paused before adding, “It should have something to do with my father.”

Hearing that, Su Ling furrowed his brows. That means the accident that happened to male god’s father is probably caused by his relative. Sitting down beside Gu Liheng, Su Ling held his hand and comforted, “Don’t be sad.”

Gu Liheng shook his head, “I’m not sad, it’s just that I should have thought of it for so many years.”

Su Ling: “You were so young at the time, and the incident was judged to be an accident. It’s normal that you didn’t think there is anything suspicious.”

The two chatted for a while and went to have dinner. After dinner, Su Ling said, “I’ll change my clothes and accompany you later.”

Gu Liheng glanced over Su Ling’s nightgown and nodded, “Okay.”

At 7.30 pm, Hua Cheng brought Special assistant Luo to the villa.

Special assistant Luo looked slightly nervous when he came in. Cautiously sitting opposite Gu Liheng, he greeted, “President Gu.”

Gu Liheng nodded, “Get to the point.”

“I know something about your father,” Luo clenched his fists tightly and continued, “I don’t want to be the second Secretary Yan, so I decided to come to you after some consideration.” He looked straight at Gu Liheng, “President Gu, your subordinate is the one investigating my account, right?”

Gu Liheng answered, “Yes.”

Special assistant Luo: “Then you should already know that I transferred a large sum of money out from my account 20 years ago.”

Then he leaned forward, his tone was slightly agitated as he continued, “but at the time, I didn’t know who it was transferred to and what is the purpose!”

“At that time, I just finished a project and I put in a lot of effort in it. Director Gu was very happy and gave me a bonus. But the amount was huge that I was very surprised.”

“Later, Director Gu told me that not all of the money is for me and a large chunk of the amount is meant for other people. Relieved, I transferred the money to the account number he gave me.”

“I was young at the time and was very excited to get a huge bonus, but soon I realized that something is wrong. I knew all the people involved in the project. With the amount so huge, it is quite unreasonable for anyone to get it. The amount is simply too much.”

Luo’s voice was low as he said, “Out of curiosity, I checked the receiver’s account, and it turned out that the account had been canceled.”

“This sounds even more wrong. I did suspect that Director Gu used me to launder money. Worried that something might happen, I was extra cautious the next few days and paid special attention to Director Gu’s actions.”

“I noticed that his behavior was quite different from usual as he looked nervous and excited but a little scared at the same time. He would also occasionally avoid having other people around when answering calls.”

“At that time, I was already suspicious. I worried that he had something wrong and implicate me… so I did some tricks and put an old-fashioned voice recorder in his office that would not be detected easily.”

Clasping his fingers tightly, Luo’s voice trembled slightly, “The next day, before I managed to retrieve the recorder, the news of your father’s accident has spread.”

“Director Gu quickly left the company to deal with related matters. Hence, I took the opportunity to retrieve the recorder and learned the truth of the matter.” Then he looked at Gu Liheng. “Your father’s accident is not an accident. Director Gu asked someone to do it.”

Special assistant Luo swallowed nervously, “The money I transferred is a deposit.” After he finished speaking, he quickly stated, “I’m telling the truth, I don’t know anything. I was forcibly pulled into this mess by Director Gu.”

His voice gets lower and dry as he added, “At best, my crime is I didn’t report it after I learned the truth. But I also have my own difficulties! In that situation, Director Gu is likely to take over the Gu company. So if I said it, the consequences would be disastrous.”

“This matter, the more I delay it, the harder it will be to say it. After you took charge of the Gu company, I was worried that you would not let me go. So I acted like I didn’t know anything.”

Gu Liheng expressionlessly said, “Then you find that someone is checking your account. You came to me became you feel you can’t hide the truth anymore?”

Special assistant Luo gritted his teeth, “Yes! Although it has been so many years, as long as you keep checking, the result would come out. Not to mention my account and recipient at the time have been found out.”

“I don’t want to be pushed out as sacrificial lamb like Secretary Yan when the truth is revealed.”

Rubbing his face, Luo put down his hands and continued to clasp his hands tightly, looking at Gu Liheng, “I can provide evidence, and I can testify in court. All I want is to cut off cleanly from this case.”

“In Belle, people who knew about the crime but failed to report it will be jailed for at least 1 year, but family members of the victims can apply to exclude the said person from being held accountable.”

Gu Liheng was silent for a moment before he said, “As long as the evidence you provide is valid and you didn’t lie, I will apply for you.”

Special assistant Luo breathed a sigh of relief, “There is absolutely no deception.”

Under Gu Liheng’s gaze, Luo hesitated for a moment before taking out the recorder and handed it forward, “I have charged it before coming over.”

Gu Liheng took the recorder and turned on the switch, but it was quiet.

Special assistant Luo: “The useful dialogues are at the lower part in the middle.”

Gu Liheng fast forwards the recording to the position pointed by Special assistant Luo.

Gu Ming’s voice could be heard saying, “Yes, it will definitely pass by today, I won’t make a mistake.”

Gu Ming’s voice was very low, but his breathing is rapid, nervous, and excited, “Don’t worry, as long as you finish off Gu Yuan cleanly, the remaining money and the information of the person you are looking for will be given to you.”

“I’m waiting for your good news.”

“Remember, you must not leave a trace.”

Gu Liheng’s expression was deep. He turned off the recording, and gave the recorder to Hua Cheng, “Check the authenticity of the recording, whether there are any traces of modification, and make sure it can be used as evidence.”

Hua Cheng: “Alright.”

Gu Liheng raised his chin towards Special assistant Luo, “Take him away.”

Special assistant Luo said nervously, “President Gu, don’t forget what you promised, otherwise I won’t appear in court to testify.” If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t dare to show evidence directly.

Gu Liheng: “I won’t turn back on my words.”

Special assistant Luo breathed a sigh of relief and Hua Cheng said, “Let’s go.”

Special assistant Luo got up and turned to Gu Liheng, “I’m sorry.” Then he followed Hua Cheng out and left the villa.

There are only Su Ling and Gu Liheng in the living room. Su Ling grabbed Gu Liheng’s hand and he looked at the young man, “I’m fine. The truth is revealed and we have evidence. It is a good thing. As for Special assistant Luo, everyone has their own selfishness.”

Su Ling nodded in agreement before asking, “Are you going to sue Gu Ming directly?”

Gu Liheng did not answer immediately. He was silent for a moment, “I will sue him, but I am going to let my mother handle it.”

In less than an hour, Hua Cheng reported the test results to Gu Liheng, “The recording is the source file. There are no artificial traces, and can be used to testify.”

Gu Liheng got off the treadmill and said, “Give it to my mother.” He thought for a while before saying, “Give it tomorrow morning.”

Hua Cheng: “Alright.”

After Mother Gu finished her meal in the morning, she got the information sent by Hua Cheng himself. She looked a little surprised to see Hua Cheng because he is Gu Liheng’s classmate in university and also his confidant. Previously when she is selecting people from the mercenary group, Hua Cheng is the only one she couldn’t ask to come. After reading the information, her face was cold, her fingers trembled slightly, and she gritted her teeth. She exclaimed bitterly, “Gu Ming!”

Hua Cheng: “President Gu asked us to investigate the online rumors about Young master Su’s background. The information we got shows that those sources of information are also related to Gu Ming.”

Mother Gu: “Does Ah Heng know about it?”

Hua Cheng: “I have already told President Gu.”

Mother Gu frowned, then bit her lower lip hard, “Gu Ming knows that Ah Heng has seen a psychiatrist?”

That caught Hua Cheng by surprise, “President Gu is seeing a psychiatrist?”

Mother Gu realized that Hua Cheng didn’t seem to know about this. She shook her head, “No.” and changed the subject, “Do you know who is the most reliable lawyer right now in Belle?”

Hua Cheng who accidentally learned about Gu Liheng’s visit to a psychiatrist was shocked but he tried to maintain his composure as he replied, “I know.” His sensitivity is really terrible. To think that he can’t see that President Gu needs a psychiatrist, he needs to get remedial psychology classes asap!

After Su Ling harvested the liquid from Redthorn Ball and returned from the Xiao villa, he heard Gu Liheng talking in a call, “Thank you. En, I have not relapsed. I am in good condition, thank you.”

Just after Gu Liheng hung up the call, Su Ling rushed forward to check his expression, “Dr. Mill’s call just now?”

Except for Mill, male god won’t mention about his conditions so casually.

Gu Liheng: “En.”

Su Ling became nervous, “Are you feeling uncomfortable again?”

Gu Liheng smiled and rubbed Su Ling’s hair, “No, I just asking something. The information regarding your background came from Gu Ming. So I asked Mill if anyone had checked about my treatment.”

Su Ling: “And?”

Gu Liheng nodded, “Yes, someone did but didn’t succeed, and he left a trace.”

Su Ling frowned, “When did that person check it?” He thought for a while, “Before we went to the swimming pool?”

Gu Liheng: “En.”

“No wonder! They want to agitate you!” Su Ling furiously scolded, “too vicious.”

Gu Liheng embraced Su Ling and comforted, “Don’t be angry, they will reap what they sowed soon. Do you want to go to the theme park?”

Su Ling shook his head, “Let’s wait until Gu Ming’s matter is done. I received a call from Uncle Nalu just now. The fragrance bar will reopen on 1st August. I need to reformulate the types of fragrances that we are going to sell these days.” His eyes shimmered slightly as he said, “I am going to try to use common formulas on the market, and then try to make a few novel fragrances.”

Gu Liheng: “Won’t you get tired? Our Gu company has many spiritual plant specialists. Do you need their help?”

“No,” Su Ling shook his head. “I like making fragrances. If I encounter a problem, I will ask Darry.”

Gu Liheng saw Su Ling in good spirits and smiled, “Okay, tell me what else you need to buy.”

While talking, Domi reported that the courier had arrived.

Su Ling was curious, “What did you buy?”

His question was quickly answered. Watching the staff move the instruments to the fragrance room, Su Ling immediately remembered that these are all the machines he saw in Ni An’s laboratory. The last box is a variety of different types of bottles and cans, and the spray bottles mentioned by Ni An are of the same brand. After the delivery staff left, Su Ling looked at the room filled with equipment and said in amusement, “I will feel sorry for these if I don’t study hard.”

Gu Liheng: “If you like to learn, then learn. If not, don’t force yourself. I’m just buying these so that you have something to use when you need it.”

Su Ling poked Gu Liheng’s arm, “You will spoil me with your pampering like this.”

Gu Liheng smiled, “You won’t.”

After a while, another courier came, and Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “What else did you buy?” Then he couldn’t help but laugh, “You look so solemn, but you are actually a shopaholic deep inside?”

Chapter 71 – Theme park [OW]

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

Su Ling put the Flower Bud Grass down and casually chatted with other spiritual plants. He stayed in the spiritual plant room until Gu Liheng called him down for lunch. Su Ling was in a good mood while eating. “The vine liquid from Uncle Lóng can quickly make the Flower Bud Grass mature. On the other hand, the Flower Bud Grass gave me a flower bud. I will check how to plant it later.”

Gu Liheng reminded, “Don’t let yourself be too tired.” Thinking of Lin Meng’s words, he also felt that his young man has too little entertainment, “Want to go to the theme park?”

Su Ling wasn’t very interested in going, but he asked Gu Liheng, “Have you been to a theme park before?”

Gu Liheng: “I went once when I was young.”

Su Ling: “Did you not hang out with your classmates in high school and university?”

Gu Liheng shook his head.

Su Ling: “Then let’s go together and play more exciting rides! That would be fun and relaxing.”

Male god is being called ‘Lone Rangers’ so it’s obvious that he rarely gets out with other people. He only exercises at home and didn’t participate in many entertainments like games. Su Ling wanted to make up for the youthful time that male god missed.

Gu Liheng agreed with Su Ling’s proposal, “Alright.”

After they had dinner, Su Ling and Gu Liheng happily researched online about the theme parks in Belle City, and together they picked the most interesting one.

Gu An went home with a stiff face. As soon as he entered the house, he was called to the study by the robot butler. Knocking on the door, he heard Gu Ming’s voice saying, “Come in.”

Gu Ming’s complexion is not better than Gu An. His meticulously combed hair is a bit messy. When he saw Gu An, his brows wrinkled, “What’s the matter with you? Fought with someone?”

Gu An looked down as he explained, “They knew that Gu Liheng is suppressing me, so they deliberately made trouble for me to flatter Gu Liheng.”

BANG!

Gu Ming hit the desk furiously, “A bunch of opportunists! And you!” He pointed to Gu An, “Useless thing! It has been so many years, even if they followed you with selfish intention, you should train a few confidantes. Now you don’t even have anyone you can use!”

Hearing that, Gu An’s face turned pale, his fingers tightly clenched.

Putting his hand down, Gu Ming looked at Gu An and said, “We are unlucky this time. After Gu Liheng’s mother knew Su Ling’s identity, she did cause trouble for Gu Liheng. And Gu Liheng fell in a coma as well. It’s a pity though.” He continued bitterly, “It’s a pity that he didn’t go crazy! His survival instinct is strong since when he is still a child.”

“This time, he seems to be determined to finish us. If you continue, you will lose more. Gu An, let go of all the projects at hand and resign.”

Gu An raised his eyes, “Father, you mean…?”

“Leave the Gu company. My own company has developed well over the years. I have business dealings with many families in Planet Clay so I don’t have to live under that kid.”

Gu An’s eyes widened in surprise, “You want to sell your shares?”

Gu Ming: “Of course not, just that I won’t care for the company. I will sit and wait for dividends,” his tone was malicious as he added, “maybe when a chance comes by and that kid really went crazy, I have shares in hand. Then I can propose the decision to remove the chairman.”

Gu An: “Father is wise.”

Gu Ming: “You should hand over your work as soon as possible and go to my company. It’s yours to take over in the future anyway.”

After Gu An left the study, Gu Ming contacted his special assistant and asked him to prepare for the transfer of some management tasks. As he is talking, he felt a little strange and asked “Old Luo, are you unwell?”

Assistant Luo sat in the office, his expression became more panic when he heard that. Trying to stay calm, he coughed lightly and said, “I’m fine. It just that President Gu has been giving some pressure these days. Some projects have problems with their data so I processed them overnight and didn’t have a good rest.”

Gu Ming: “Thanks for your hard work. Since he is trying to hollow away my power, I will follow his wishes. Then your work will be relaxed in the future.”

“Thank you, Director Gu.”

After Gu Ming explained his instructions, he hung up the call.

After the call, Special assistant Luo dropped his hands to the table weakly. His body seemed to have become 10 years older in an instant, and he leaned heavily on the back of the chair. He looked dazed for a moment and soon came to his senses again. Tapping on his bracelet, he switched to the page he was reading before Gu Ming’s call. He read it again, and double confirmed that someone recently checked his fund transfer records in 20 years! Almost immediately, he realized that President Gu must have asked someone to check him. Thinking of what happened to Gu An’s secretary, he became afraid. In case of exposure, will Gu Ming push those responsibilities onto him as well? Even if he tried to get rid of accusations, he would inevitably be regarded as an accomplice. The more he thought about it, the more he felt uneasy thinking about various possibilities and consequences. After a long time, his expression calmed down.

Su Ling and Gu Liheng chose a theme park that is most popular with university students, and it has a very simple name: Hi. The comment on the official website that has the most likes said – If you want to be happy, go Hi.

Su Ling pulled Gu Liheng back to their room and said, “We have to change into more casual clothes, otherwise it will be inconvenient to move around.” He first went to Gu Liheng’s wardrobe and looked around. Then he took a short-sleeved black T-shirt and blue knee-length denim pants.

Su Ling was a little surprised by his finding, “I actually thought if you didn’t have any suitable clothing, we would buy one right away.”

Gu Liheng: “Following Dr. Mill’s advice before, I tried different styles of clothes and bought a lot.”

Su Ling smiled and shook the clothing he picked in front of Gu Liheng, “Is this acceptable?”

Gu Liheng took it, “Yes.”

Su Ling: “Then put it on.” He went to search for his clothes and returned with the same black T-shirt and blue denim pants.

After the two changed their clothes, Su Ling pulled Gu Liheng and stood in front of the full-length mirror with a bright smile, “Although the brands are different and the styles are somewhat different, we can still be considered as wearing couple outfits.”

Smiling, Gu Liheng reached out and rubbed Su Ling’s hair.

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and raised his hand to mess his hair, “You used hair gel in the morning right? It’s too formal, you need to be more natural.”

After setting Gu Liheng’s hairstyle, they went out.

Right now is summer vacation, so there are a lot of people in the theme park. Screams and laughter filled their ears, and the atmosphere was very lively. Su Ling is super excited. Upon entering the theme park, he bought two masks and whispered, “So that no one recognizes us and affects our enjoyment.”

Gu Liheng put on his mask and then helped Su Ling to put his on.

At that moment, someone passed by and they commented in a low voice, “Ah! So sweet!”

Su Ling looked up at Gu Liheng with curved eyes and said, “Someone praised us.”

With a smile in his eyes, Gu Liheng took Su Ling’s hand and walked in, “What do you want to play?”

Su Ling: “Let’s play in order from the innermost ride.”

They played for an afternoon and only played 4 rides; 2 different roller coasters which one is a type of high roller coaster, and the other is a multi-angle rotation roller coaster, the Ferris wheel, and the rapids. Coming out from the rapids ride, it’s already past 5.00 pm. Su Ling was having so much fun and he pointed to the indoor pavilion in front, “We don’t have enough time today. Let’s come again when we have time. I want to experience the space museum next time.”

Gu Liheng: “We can also go now.”

Su Ling pointed to the time, “The queue stops at 5.00 pm.”

Gu Liheng: “It’s okay, I could just contact the theme park manager if you like. I can book the whole venue in advance next time so that you don’t have to line up.”

Su Ling laughed, he felt like he has suddenly walked into an idol drama filming set. He took male god’s hand and walked out, “It’s fine. It’s because there are many people in the amusement park that you can feel the lively atmosphere. Just like the roller coaster just now, everyone was screaming. It’s refreshing to scream together.”

Gu Liheng thought of the scene where the young man was screaming freely just now and his mouth curved slightly, “Then we’ll come back tomorrow.”

Su Ling nodded: “Holiday is so nice!”

Su Ling took a few steps forward, then Gu Liheng held him back, “Wait.” He stopped and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Squatting down, Gu Liheng reached out to fold the hem of Su Ling’s trousers up a section, which happened to be a wet patch (from the rapids). And so, the wet sensation at his calf suddenly disappeared.

Su Ling looked down at Gu Liheng and his heart beats faster. Many tourists passing by looked over, discussing about them excitedly and enviously. Gu Liheng neatly folded both sides of his pants and stood up. As male god is leading him out, he heard him saying, “Wait until we leave, you can change to other pants.”

Su Ling looked down at the hem of his pants and then at Gu Liheng’s, “Yours is also wet.”

“It’s okay.” Gu Liheng said.

Su Ling’s mouth curled up, “Actually, it doesn’t matter to me since the weather is not cold,” he hugged the male god’s arm and added, “but I’m so happy.” It feels great to receive such care from someone.

Gu Liheng’s expression turned soft and pity flashed his eyes. The young man is too easily satisfied. Back in the car, Gu Liheng opened the screen inside the car to separate the front and rear seats. Then he took out a beige slack from his space storage and handed it to Su Ling, before turning around.

Su Ling took the pants and asked, “When did you prepare them?”

Gu Liheng: “I always keep spares in my space storage.”

Hearing that, Su Ling raised his eyebrows and leaned against the back of male god’s shoulder, “Why do you need to keep spare pants?”

Gu Liheng added, “There are also spare clothes and shoes.”

Amused, Su Ling asked, “What are you going to do with the spares?”

Gu Liheng was silent for a while, his voice was hoarse, “You may need it. Any Alpha with an Omega partner should be prepared.”

Su Ling thought for a moment and was stunned by his thought, “Could it be the Alpha is afraid that he won’t be able to control himself outside and will do this and that to the Omega?”

Isn’t this kind of preparation a bit too much?

“No… not just that,” Gu Liheng, “Even if the Alpha can keep himself under control, the Omega will still need spare clothing.”

Gu Liheng is feeling rather helpless about the young man’s questioning. Although he(SL) had read books about Omega’s physiology, knowing and understanding is not the same concept. The young man always seems to write down about various Omega’s reactions, but unless things happen to himself, he rarely sees himself in the situation written in the books. Not waiting for the young man to ask further, he continued to explain, “After a couple is temporarily marked, their pheromone will be more stable, but the adult Omega may fall into estrus at any time. Even in the early stage, the pheromones from estrus will break the stability.”

“If the Omega’s body started responding, fluid will be secreted behind him, and his pants…”

Su Ling: “No need to say!” He blushed, “I understand.”

Thinking back of the scene where Gu Liheng applied medicines on him, Su Ling understood that his pants would definitely be dirty. If they were outside, it would be more embarrassing than a girl suddenly getting her period. After all, the period is purely a physical phenomenon, while for the Omega, that reaction only occurs after estrus. He put the pants in his space storage and said, “I won’t change it today. Only the hem is a bit wet and we are going home now anyway.”

Gu Liheng turned to look at Su Ling, “We are going straight home, no one will see you.” He rubbed Su Ling’s hair, “Don’t be afraid, no one will misunderstand.”

Su Ling grabbed Gu Liheng’s hand and said, “I’m not afraid of being misunderstood!” He lifted his right foot up a bit, “I just don’t think it is necessary.”

Glanced across Su Ling’s blushing face, Gu Liheng touched the hem of his(SL) pants. The place he had previously rolled up was soaked so it felt cold and damp, “It will be uncomfortable.”

Su Ling: “It’s okay.”

Seeing that Su Ling is resolutely unwilling to change his pants, Gu Liheng reluctantly pulled a few sheets of tissue paper and dabbed them on his trousers.

Back at the villa, Gu Liheng carried Su Ling directly to the bathroom. He started the water in the tub and got a bathrobe for Su Ling, “Go and take a bath first.”

Su Ling felt like laughing but with him being so meticulous, how can he refuse?

Gu Liheng stood at the door for a while, seeming to think that his attitude was too strong, and asked gently, “What do you want to eat? I will get the kitchen prepare.”

Su Ling immediately replied, “Steamed fish, sweet and sour pork ribs,” he paused and added, “stir-fried bok choy.”

Gu Liheng laughed. He mentioned several times that a balanced meal should have meat and vegetables, and the young man obviously remembered it. He nodded, “Okay.”

Leaving the bedroom, Gu Liheng went downstairs to select the dishes for dinner. Then he received a call from Hua Cheng.

“President Gu, Gu Ming’s special assistant wants to see you.”

Gu Liheng: “Special assistant Luo?”

Gu An’s trick?

Ridicule flashed in Gu Liheng’s eyes, and he lightly explained about his past.

“Gu An was born with a very weak body, and his elders love him very much. He is not physically fit, but his academic performance is very good. His appearance is good, has a gentle temperament, and people like him a lot.”

“He likes to trouble me. When he sees things that I like, he would always find ways to take them from me.  I was very naughty when I was a child, so I would always get into fights with him. In front of the elders,  he will always look worse than me, so the elders would scold me.”

“How old was he at that time, that is so scary,” Su Ling patted Gu Liheng’s arm and added, “Little Pitiful, this Gege (older brother) will protect you from now on, so that you will not be bullied.”

Gu Liheng looked down at Su Ling, “Gege?”

“Using the word ‘Gege’ sounds more confident.” Su Ling righteously said.

A smile flashed in Gu Liheng’s eyes, his young man is too cute, and he liked it too much.

After a while, the two of them arrived at Ni An’s department.  After Su Ling presented the appointment card, they were immediately given access.

Ni An was not surprised to see Gu Liheng. He smiled and brought them to the laboratory. Ni An’s laboratory is fully equipped, and there are 3 assistants inside doing research.  When Ni An enters, they greet him quickly. Ni An waved at the assistant and let them continue with what they were doing. Then he took Su Ling to the worktable on the left. There were some instruments on the table.  A strangely shaped green plant was placed near the window. The thickness of the main stem is like a chopstick, and its length is only a finger tall. The plant was covered in a white transparent ball.

Behind the table is a rack on the wall, filled with bottles and cans. Ni An took a bottle of light green liquid and said,  “This green lotion is the raw material from a B-grade spiritual plant, Dew Grass (含露草). It is very moisturizing and skin-friendly.”  He looked at Su Ling, “Many Omega treats it as a skincare product, so you can also try it.”

Su Ling: “…En, I will.”

Ni An took out a test tube, “Green lotion and…” He paused, “Does the liquid you gave me has a name?”

Su Ling: “Vine liquid.”

Hearing that, Ni An briefly glanced across Su Ling’s wrist and smiled, “It seems that the netizen’s guess is correct.  That vine is the Grade S spiritual plant, Lóng Mó Téng, right?”

Working hard to act as a bracelet on Su Ling’s wrist, Lóng Mó Téng didn’t move despite hearing that. Su Ling smiled and spread his hands, “I don’t know anything.”

A thought flashed in Ni An’s mind. Thinking about the high IQ of the Grade S spiritual plants, he had some guesses in his heart. He smiled and poured 5ml of green lotion into the test tube.

He explained, “The ratio of green lotion and vine liquid is 1:3. After letting it sit for 10 minutes, you can then put it in the aging machine and set the timing as 15 days.”

Su Ling wrote down what Ni An said. Then he realized Ni An has stopped talking and didn’t continue. As if suddenly remembering something,  he took out 100ml of vine liquid from his space storage and handed it to Ni An.

Ni An took the liquid and poured 15ml into a test tube. After that, he returned the remaining vine liquid to Su Ling and then poured the 2 types of liquid into a glass bottle together.

“Then you have to let it sit for 10 minutes,” Ni An said. “Please wait a moment.”

“It’s okay,” Su Ling asked. “Can I take a look around?” He pointed to the instruments everywhere.

Ni An: “Don’t touch those that are working. You can freely check out the rest.”

Su Ling looked at all kinds of instruments, while Gu Liheng silently noted down the instruments that Su Ling stared at for a longer time.

When they returned to the workbench,  Ni An was opening the transparent cover of the spiritual plant by the window sill. He held a small pair of scissors, and carefully cutting a section from the main stem. Then he placed it in the small bottle in front of him. Ni An put away the scissors and closed the cover. After that, he tapped on the cover and adjusted the settings.  Next, he poured several liquids into the small bottle in front of him, mixing with the cut stem.

When he stopped, Su Ling asked curiously, “What fragrance are you making?”

Ni An shook his head, “It’s not a fragrance, but a special-grade inhibitor, specifically for Omega who is in estrus but has no partner.”

Su Ling: “Can’t you just buy it online?”

Ni An: “The ones in the market have side effects. Upon usage, the person’s mood will be very depressed within a week and it is not good for the body.” He sighed and looked at the window sill, “Unfortunately, the necessary raw materials for this special-grade inhibitor are not easy to obtain. Thus cannot be marketed.”

In Su Ling’s mind, he searched for the spiritual plant information that he had seen in the spiritual plant registration association. Then he looked at the green plant, and asked unsurely, “Is this plant called Flower Bud Grass (花苞草)?”

The picture he saw in the storage room is very different from this green plant. The main stem of the Flower Bud Grass in the picture is straight and is more than 1m in length. It has light purple flower buds growing around the main stem from bottom to top. On the other hand, this green plant is no more than 10cm in length. The stem is smooth and no buds are growing from it.

Ni An nodded, “Yes,” he looked helpless as he said, “Although it is a Grade B spiritual plant, it grows slowly and consumes a lot of nutrients. So, its rarity is about the same as a Grade A spiritual plant now.”

“If an Omega is in good health and can withstand the side effects of general inhibitors, they will be forbidden to use special-grade inhibitors. Even so, this Flower Bud Grass cannot last long.”

Su Ling: “Just now, you cut the raw materials out directly, will there be any problem?” Raw materials that are not voluntarily provided by the spiritual plant are likely to be toxic.

Ni An: “This Flower Bud Grass is different from other spiritual plants. It will only be considered as a spiritual plant if flower buds grow out of it. At the moment, this plant is a normal plant so direct harvesting does not affect the effect.”

Su Ling looked at the Flower Bud Grass curiously, and a thought formed in his mind. His fingers subconsciously rubbed at Lóng Mó Téng on his wrist, “Is it difficult to buy Flower Bud Grass?”

“En, the existing ones are all grown by the Imperial Spiritual Plant Cultivation Institute. They are not sold to the public and the institute cooperates only with hospitals. There are also strict regulations on the quantity that hospitals of different levels can buy.”

Curious, Su Ling asked,  “Is it difficult to grow the plant?”

Ni An: “The main reason is that its growth rate cannot keep up with the consumption rate. It grows too slowly. Generally, it has to grow to at least half a meter before it starts to form buds. Only with the buds, we can cultivate a new plant. But at the moment, we can hardly wait for its buds to grow, so we have to use its stem instead.”

“Fortunately, the remaining 10 plants in the cultivation institute are forbidden to be used, otherwise they will be extinct now.”

Su Ling nodded and Ni An smiled, “As expected of a student in spiritual plant major, you have a great interest in spiritual plants. You will definitely become an amazing spiritual cultivator in the future.”

Su Ling’s eyes curved with smiles, “I will work hard.”

When the mixture resting time is up, Ni An puts the glass bottle in the aging device and adjust the values. After Su Ling has taken the notes, he pressed the start button. After 3 minutes, the aging device stopped working. Ni An skillfully froze and filtered the mixture, and finally put the finished product into a small white bottle, “This is a spray bottle. The mouth of the bottle will atomize the liquid. When you use it,  you can spray it on the gland so there won’t be any wastage.” He handed the bottle to Su Ling and said, “Bottles can be bought online and there are many different models.”

Su Ling took over and thanked Ni An, “Thank you so much.”

Ni An laughed, “It’s no trouble, just a bit of work. It’s the vine liquid you provided that helped me to research a new product. Thank you for the joy I obtained from the research. If you have new materials in the future, you can always find me.”

Su Ling promised and left the hospital with Gu Liheng.

In the car, Su Ling contacted Chief Wang of the Logistics Department. After some discussion, he managed to exchange some black liquid for a small Flower Bud Grass.

After the call, Gu Liheng asked Su Ling, “You want to make a special-grade inhibitor?”

“No, with you beside me, I don’t need it,” he paused before saying, “If my experiment is successful,  I will try to make some to put it in the fragrance bar for emergency use.”

Gu Liheng understood what Su Ling meant, “You want to use vine liquid?”

Su Ling nodded, “Yes!”

After lunch, a delivery arrived from the military’s logistic department. Su Ling took the courier to the spiritual plant room and placed the Flower Bud Grass on the stool. It was not placed on the ground because it is too small. In the palm-sized flowerpot is a plant’s stem less than 10cm in length. If the pot is placed on the ground, it could easily be stepped on.

Xian Mo Yu’s roots swayed around the Flower Bud Grass. Fortunately, the plant is still a seedling. At home, Xian Mo Yu always releases fragrance so instead of being frightened, the Flower Bud Grass bends its stem to touch the roots.

Su Ling didn’t use the vine liquid right away but first asked Lóng Mó Téng, “Uncle Long, can the spiritual plant grows using your vine liquid?”

“Yes, the lower the level, the faster it will grow. But you must give the right amount, or the plant will die.”

Su Ling: “How much do you think the Flower Bud Grass needs?”

Lóng Mó Téng did not answer immediately but moved from Xian Mo Yu’s petals to the stool. Gradually shrinking during the movement, it finally became a thin vine as it climbed into the flowerpot and wrapped around the Flower Bud Grass stem. Lóng Mó Téng has shrunk so small that its original emerald green leaves looked almost black.

Su Ling had long been puzzled by this change, “Uncle Long, why do your leaves change color?”

“The vine liquid is stored in the leaves. Hence, it becomes concentrated when the size is reduced.”

Just about to speak, Su Ling saw the Flower Bud Grass grows at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Lóng Mó Téng shifted as well. The light scent in the air gradually became stronger, and when the Flower Bud Grass reached half a meter, a flower bud appeared on the main stem. The moment the bud appeared, Su Ling felt a joyful emotion, coming from the spiritual plant. He was a little surprised. Just as Ni An said, when a flower bud grows, the plant can be regarded as a spiritual plant. The spiritual plants in this world are so strange, Su Ling sighed in admiration.

Seeing that the Flower Bud Grass grew longer and longer, but the thickness remained the same as if it would snap in the next moment, Su Ling couldn’t help asking, “Uncle Long, is this really okay?”

“No problem.”

When the stem grows to 1m tall, Lóng Mó Téng moved away and returned to Xian Mo Yu’s petals. Then a sentence appeared in Su Ling’s mind, “I used half of the vine liquid I gave you every day.” In other words, 25ml is enough for a Flower Bud Grass to grow.

Su Ling lightly pinched Lóng Mó Téng’s leaf and said, “Thank you, Uncle Long!”

The leaf shook and rubbed against his fingertips, “You are welcome, nephew.”

Su Ling laughed and retracted his hand.

Xian Mo Yu’s roots rubbed against the vines, “You are such a good uncle.”

Lóng Mó Téng: “Idiot, stop talking nonsense.”

Su Ling counted the flower buds growing on the stem from bottom to top. There are a total of 10 buds, exactly 1 bud every 10cm apart. The stem slightly bent and touched his fingertips. Smiling, he communicated with the plant using his pheromone and drew a small grass with three strokes to represent the flower bud. (Probably like this – \ | / )

The scent from the Flower Bud Grass became stronger, and an image of a flower bud appears in Su Ling’s mind, which is located at the bottom of the spiritual plant. Su Ling looked over and saw that the lowest flower bud swayed up and down, before falling on to the flowerpot.

Su Ling gently stroked the stem with his fingers, “Thank you.”

The stem bends and touches his arm. That movement shocked Su Ling, but fortunately, the stem is very flexible and did not snap. He picked up the bud, didn’t know how to raise the seedlings. After a moment of thought, he put it away carefully and decided to check more information later. He put the Flower Bud Grass next to Baby’s breath and Lopseed’s pot. All of a sudden, Lopseed’s silver leaves straightened and slashed on the stem. That frightened the Flower Bud Grass and it bent aside in the opposite direction.

Su Ling lightly pinched Lopseed’s leaf and said, “This is a new friend, everyone needs to get along well.”

An image of Lopseed’s nectar appeared in Su Ling’s mind. Then a vertical line appeared with a simple word beside it – Dry. (Should be like this – | 干) Before Su Ling could be surprised by that, he was dumbfounded by a sense of pride conveyed by Lopseed. The vertical line must be referring to the Flower Bud Grass. He smiled and said, “En, the Flower Bud Grass is different from you. It doesn’t produce liquid, so get along well.”

Lopseed’s leaves shook and softened before wrapping around the stem. The stem trembled for a while, and finally calmed down.

Su Ling imagined that the lower the level of the spiritual plants, the simpler their thinking. Previously, his 3 Grade A spiritual plants were frightened by Xian Mo Yu’s presence. Even after Xian Mo Yu promised that it would not hurt them, they were still on alert for a while. Unlike the Flower Bud Grass, it immediately believed that Lopseed meant no harm to it.

Getting up, Su Ling pinched the root wrapped around his wrist and asked, “Papa Xian, did you teach them to read?”

Xian Mo Yu: “Of course, we should study together! Although they are stupid, they can learn slowly.”

The roots shook as Xian Mo Yu added, “Communication is more convenient this way.”

Lóng Mó Téng’s leaf turned and stabbed at a root, “You just don’t want them to be idle!”

Xian Mo Yu: “Humph, I did not.”

Chapter 69 – Can sell with substitution 2 [OW]

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.
Woke up in the morning to see a notification from kofi XD Thanks to ForWhatitsWorth for the kofi. The sponsored chapter will be out tomorrow (0w0)/

The next day, Su Ling put Xian Mo Yu in his space storage and Lóng Mo Téng wrapped around his wrist, and he went out with Gu Liheng. The first stop is to go to the Xiào villa to harvest the ball liquid. When he came out of the spiritual plant room, Lin Meng pulled him close to comfort him, “Ling Ling, it’s all nonsense on the Internet, don’t mind them.”

Obviously, Lin Meng also saw the news about his background.

Mother Xiào has a gentle look on her face, and she poured a glass of juice for Su Ling, “Child, your situation is really making one feel distressed for you. The matters that happened with elders have nothing to do with you, so don’t think too much.”

Su Ling smiled, “Thank you, auntie.”

After chatting for a while, Lin Meng suggested, “Ling Ling, how about going to the theme park later?”

Su Ling shook his head, “I have an appointment with Doctor Ni An.”

“Are you unwell?” Lin Meng asked immediately.

Su Ling: “No, I’m going there to learn about a formula.”

Lin Meng curiously asked, “What formula? Will Doctor Ni An teach you himself?”

Su Ling nodded, “Wait till I learned it, I will give you a try.”

Lin Meng: “What is the function?”

Su Ling laughed, “You’ll know when you try.”

“That makes me even more looking forward to it,” Lin Meng said as he changed the topic, “but why are you always busy? This is the longest and most leisurely vacation of our school days, wait you see in the future…” He glanced at Xiào Rui, his face turned reddish, “You may not be so free in the future. You should play more. There’s a lot of time to make fragrances and do experiments at university. At that time, you might feel like throwing up from smelling the fragrance.”

Su Ling couldn’t understand the meaning of Lin Meng’s pause, and raised his eyebrows, “What are you blushing for?”

Lin Meng squatted and said, “I didn’t blush!”

Su Ling looked at his face getting redder, “Oh yeah, you didn’t.” Then he reached for the juice and drank it slowly.

Amused by Su Ling’s words, Mother Xiào touched Lin Meng’s hair lovingly and said, “Don’t worry, you and Ah Rui are both young. Not need to hurry, children can come after graduating from university.”

Su Ling was drinking the juice and was about to swallow it. Hearing this, he suddenly understood what Lin Meng’s pause meant. They will be pregnant and have children later, so there won’t be much free time then.

“Cough…” His breath hitched up causing Su Ling to choke on his drink.

Gu Liheng took the glass with sloshing juice away and pulled a napkin for him. After putting the water glass on the table, he patted his back. Su Ling wiped his mouth with the napkin and said, “Excuse me.” He coughed for a while before his breathing eased.

Lin Meng: “You didn’t speak when you drank your juice, but you could even choke on that?”

I didn’t speak indeed, but I heard something that made my mood fluctuate sharply! Su Ling thought silently. Of course, he couldn’t say it like that. After all, Lin Meng’s suggestion and Mother Xiào’s bluntness were all regular topics in Planet Belle. He wiped his hands and threw the napkin into the trash can, “I must have drunk too fast.”

Su Ling’s face was flushed from coughing, and his voice was hoarse, sounding like he was embarrassed.

Lin Meng: “Haha, I used to drink too fast and always choked, but now I take sips and swallow it before the next sip. Try it, you won’t be choked next time.”

Su Ling smiled, “Okay.”

At about 9:30 am, Su Ling and Gu Liheng left the Xiào villa and went to the Central Hospital. The two sat in the back seat of the car. Su Ling casually grasped male god’s defined hand and played with it, pinching his knuckles with interest.

Gu Liheng let Su Ling play, cooperatively spreading or lifting his fingers while looking at him intently. The young man has delicate eyebrows and black hair. His fair skin looks very soft. “You are still young, don’t worry about children,” he said calmly, “I’m not in a hurry as well.”

Surprised, Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng with wide eyes.

Gu Liheng smiled and pushed aside the slightly longer hair that fell on Su Ling’s eyelids, “You choked on the juice because you heard this, right?”

Su Ling’s surprised expression disappeared, and he smiled at him, “You have been looking at me?”

Gu Liheng nodded honestly, “En, you weren’t drinking too fast.” He grabbed Su Ling’s hand and added, “Don’t be afraid, we won’t have children until you are ready.”

Su Ling laughed and hugged Gu Liheng, “You are so kind.”

He didn’t say that he never want any children. Just like male god said, they still have a long time to get ready, which their lifespan is much longer than the time he spent as a man on Earth. His body has changed, the environment around him has also changed, so his thoughts can always change.

Gu Liheng held Su Ling’s waist and confessed, “I also have my own selfishness. I enjoy our time with just two of us.”

Su Ling immediately responded, “I like it too!”

Parking the car in the hospital parking lot, the two got off the car together and walked to the building where Ni An’s office is located. Before leaving the parking lot, noise could be heard from the front left. Su Ling glanced over there and saw 2 luxury cars parked side by side. There were 4 people standing in front of the cars, 2 with their backs facing them and 2 facing each other.

One of the men facing Su Ling and Gu Liheng has cropped hair, and his right eye was red and swollen. The corner of his mouth was also injured, and he was glaring at the person standing in front of him.

“Don’t think of yourself as anything special. Right now, who doesn’t know that President Gu is trying to bring down both your father and you? So no need to pretend in front of me. Without the Gu company, who else in Planet Belle will shelter you? As an Alpha, you only know to scheme all day long, I’m already disgusted with you from early on.”

The black-haired man with his back facing Su Ling and Gu Liheng raised his head and his voice was cold as he said, “You forgot how you used to run around like a dog? What? Now you want to attack me to please Gu Liheng? A dog-faced person like you, other people won’t bother at all. Raising a real dog will get more sincere loyalty than you.”

Su Ling was a little surprised, that’s Gu An’s voice.

“Gu An, say it again fcker,” the cropped hair man raised his hand. Before his fist fell on Gu An,
the man with blue T-shirt beside him grabbed him and pulled him back, “Don’t be impulsive.”

Gu An snorted coldly, “Oh, touched a nerve?” Then he moved his gaze to the man with blue T-shirt, “Don’t pull him back. Let him come, I promise not to fight back.”

“And let him get arrested to the prison, right?” The man in blue T-shirt glared at Gu An, “Don’t aggravate him, we used to let you do whatever you want. But we are not scared by you, we just don’t want to offend the Gu company.”

Gu An yelled, “Shut up! Do you want me to give thanks to Gu Liheng for backing me for so many years? You guys used to surround me and flatter me, but you didn’t say it was because of him!” He took a breath before adding, “Why don’t you flatter around him instead?”

The man in the blue T-shirt curled his lips, “Who doesn’t know that President Gu is a lone ranger?”

Su Ling tilted his head to look at Gu Liheng, and whispered, “Lone ranger?”

Gu Liheng looked down at Su Ling, showing a hint of helplessness, “This is the first time I have heard of this title.”

Su Ling’s eyes curled with laughter and he asked, “What to do? It’s going to be 10.00 am in less than 10 minutes.”

Gu Liheng answered the question with action. Taking Su Ling’s left hand, Gu Liheng leads him to go to the right side and continued to walk forward. When they reached the front of the path, the quarreling men on the left looked over.

The air was quiet for a moment. Immediately afterward, 3 voices greeted, “President Gu.”

Gu An looked at the two incoming people with an ugly expression, and the corners of his mouth sank.

Gu Liheng nodded to the 3 people who greeted him and said, “Excuse me, the time agreed with the doctor is approaching, I’ll be leaving first.”

“It’s okay, no problem.”

Gu Liheng smiled and took Su Ling past them.

“Stop,” Gu An said suddenly and ran in front of the two of them. Gu Liheng looked at him, “You need something?”

Gu An stared at Gu Liheng and asked, “Are you really going to corner us to the wall? In the past few days, all of my projects have been divested. These were all your doing?”

Gu Liheng didn’t evade Gu An’s stare as he answered, “Yes.”

Gu An’s voice was raised, “I already said it that it wasn’t me who did it!”

Gu Liheng: “I don’t believe it,” he said in a low tone, “I don’t believe a word. In the past, you and your father’s small actions didn’t have a big impact on the company. So I acted like I didn’t see them.”

“It’s not that I don’t know, I just don’t want to care about you,” his voice turned cold, “but this time, you touched my bottom line.”

Gu An turned pale and turned to look at Su Ling, “I am really innocent, I…”

Su Ling waved his hand and said, “I don’t believe it, I don’t believe a word.” Repeating male god’s words without missing a word.

Glancing at Su Ling with a smile, Gu Liheng looked at Gu An and said, “The world of an adult is different from that of a child. You should change your tricks.” He said lightly, “Adults, speak with their strength.”

Hearing that, Gu An clenched his fist as he watched the two walked away without saying a word.

The man with cropped hair looked at Gu An with a cold snort and headed to the outpatient building with the blue T-shirt man. As they walked away, he said, “President Gu is right, strength is the most important thing. Look, when President Gu deals with Gu An and his father, the people who used to stick around Gu An are gone. Heh, it’s really a waste for Gu An to have such a good identity, he is clearly only 2 years younger than President Gu.”

Blue T-shirt man: “You don’t get to say anything, don’t you also run around Gu An before? If he really has the strength, you won’t be beaten today because he will leave you with no bones.”

Cropped-haired man: “I did it to get on line with President Gu! An Alpha like him scheming all day, and only know to makes small movements every day. If it weren’t for my father telling me not to mess with the Gu family, I would have had fought with him much earlier.”

“Okay, you aren’t any better. Look at President Gu, did he curse or beat people when dealing with Gu An?”

“So that’s why I am not President Gu!”

Su Ling couldn’t help but laugh as he walked, “You are sure famous, huh? People who know you usually say hello like this?”

Gu Liheng: “Except for official business, I rarely communicate with people and I don’t pay too much attention,” he thought, “It’s all the same with usual, just that my subordinates will stand straighter.”

Su Ling laughed out, “Then if you go back to work this time, your subordinates will surely drop their jaws.”

Gu Liheng: “Such a big change?”

Su Ling nodded, “When you are being serious, you still have the domineering aura. But your casual mode has a more relaxed temperament and a richer expression.”

As he spoke, he looked back and saw that the parking lot was no longer visible. He thought of the ‘tricks’ male god mentioned during childhood, and asked curiously, “Did Gu An bully you when you were a child?”

Gu Liheng: “It’s just little tricks. He probably got used to the success rate and has been using it until now.”

Su Ling: “What trick?”

Chapter 69 – Can sell with substitution 1 [OW]

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

At the dining room

Su Ling ate his food quickly and his cheeks were bulging. He buried his face in the bowl as if all his focus is placed on the food in front of him.

Gu Liheng couldn’t stand it anymore, so he filled a small bowl of soup and put it beside Su Ling. He said, “Eat slowly.”

Swallowing the food in his mouth, Su Ling turned to look at Gu Liheng and smiled; his eyebrows curved with joy.

Seeing that, Gu Liheng’s expression softened, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, “Feeling happy?”

Su Ling uttered an En, and his gaze fell on the corner of Gu Liheng’s mouth, “You are smiling.”

Gu Liheng was startled, and smiled deeper, “Will you feel that you are not used to it?”

Looking at Gu Liheng’s smile, the eagerness Su Ling felt before suddenly calmed down. He said, “Of course not. Smile or not, as long as it’s you, I will like it. It’s fine as long as you feel comfortable.”

The young man’s words were straightforward and enthusiastic. Gu Liheng’s eyes darkened. After staring at him for 2 seconds, Gu Liheng looked down at the soup bowl beside Su Ling and said, “Drink some soup, and eat slowly.”

Su Ling smiled and obediently drank the soup. When he started to eat again, his speed was much slower. His appetite was only half of Gu Liheng’s portion. Before this, he was eating quickly so he felt full soon. Putting down his chopsticks, Su Ling drank a mouthful of water and stood up, “You eat slowly, I’ll go back to the room.” After he took 2 steps, he then added, “Our room upstairs.”

Gu Liheng’s hand that was holding the chopsticks unconsciously gripped hard.

Su Ling smiled and reminded, “Eat well. I’ll be waiting for you,” he paused before adding, “And I won’t cry!”

Hearing that, Gu Liheng’s breathing hitched up. He stared at the young man’s back until he disappeared from his sight. After that, Gu Liheng’s eating posture was still impeccable and he looked calm, but his speed was much faster than usual.

No one can refuse such an obvious invitation from the young man. But can his(SL) body tolerate… Gu Liheng slowed down his eating speed and his brows frowned. The Omega has given an invitation, so it would be very hurtful if the Alpha rejected it. He had rejected the young man on this kind of thing before. So now, whether it is mentally or physically, he does not want to refuse anymore. Putting down his chopsticks, Gu Liheng quickly opened his bracelet and entered the online mall. Then he clicked into the Omega specialty store and bought some medicine.

After Su Ling left the dining room, he went to the spiritual plant room first and released Xian Mo Yu from the space storage. Lóng Mo Téng immediately jumped from his wrist to Xian Mo Yu’s petals. He smiled, “Papa Xian, Uncle Lóng, you guys can rest here. If you have something, please send me a message,” Then he reminded, “You must not penetrate the ceiling with your poison!”

Xian Mo Yu wrote in Su Ling’s mind, “You don’t want me to stay in your room?” At the same time, it cried to its friend, “My son won’t stick to me anymore!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stop with your stupid crying behavior. Human lovers need a private space to do intimate things, understand?”

Xian Mo Yu’s roots shook, “Am I going to have a grandson?”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Maybe… but let’s put this out first. We only care about your son, not your grandchildren. That means we will return to the forest when your son dies.”

Xian Mo Yu: “I know.”

Su Ling didn’t know what the two were talking about. Looking at Xian Mo Yu’s question, he coughed embarrassingly and said, “It’s not suitable for you to stay in my room today.”

Already had a quick chat with its friend, Xian Mo Yu expressed its understanding and wrote, “I understand! You go ahead to make babies, I won’t watch.”

Su Ling: “…No, not making a baby!”

A root stroked the top of Su Ling’s head lightly, “Don’t be shy, son. Reproduction is the law of nature.”

Su Ling doesn’t know if he should laugh or cry. He raised his hand to pinch the root and said, “I’ll go upstairs now.”

Back in the room, he removed his isolator and took a black silk robe into the bathroom. After his shower, he went out wearing the robe. A glance at the window and Su Ling saw that the sunlight outside the window is just right. But his face turned red when he thought of what he will be doing soon. He seemed a little too impatient, but he couldn’t help it. The anxiety he felt when male god fell in a coma, the worry when male god is lying on the hospital bed, and the excitement when male god has recovered… His heart has never been able to calm down, and he just wanted to do something to be sure.

Su Ling fastened his belt casually, walked out of the bathroom, and lay on the bed. He reached out and dragged a pillow to put under his chin. Then he tapped his bracelet and checked the relevant information for complete marking. Looking at the detailed description online, his face became redder and redder, and he was quite shocked. The details were really kind of explosive. To think that his body has some reactions that would go out of control makes him very embarrassed. His body right now is completely different from his body on Earth, and the part that reacted is not the front, but the back. He closed his bracelet and buried his face in the soft pillow; giving up his search. It’s better to feel the changes personally as each individual has different reactions and cannot be completely used as a reference.

As Su Ling is still thinking, the bed sank slightly and the side of his neck was covered by warm palms. Then male god’s magnetic and hoarse voice sounded at his ear, “Don’t lie down like this, you will be suffocated.”

Following the strength of the palm, Su Ling tilted his head and rest on it. Male god is still wearing a shirt and trousers; apparently, he has just reached upstairs. Su Ling wrinkled his nose but didn’t smell the scent he wanted. So he pointed at Gu Liheng’s neck and ordered, “Take off your isolator.”

The moment the words fell, the back of his neck was pressed by the slightly callused thumb and his body trembled. Su Ling shrank his shoulders and groaned softly. “You…” His eyes widened slightly, with surprise in his eyes, and his eyes were red.

Gu Liheng whispered, “Sorry, bear with me.”

His palm ignited spots on Su Ling’s body, Su Ling couldn’t stand it and wanted to hug him, but Gu Liheng stopped Su Ling, “Wait a bit.”

Su Ling was driven crazy by the touch and the scent of citrus mint became stronger and stronger in the air.

Gu Liheng was half kneeling on the bed, breathing fast and heavy. When it is almost time, he took out the medicine that he bought. Su Ling has already gotten w-et and the medicine was smoothly applied[1]. Wiping his fingers clean, Gu Liheng rubbed Su Ling’s head lightly and said, “It will be all right soon, wait for me.”

Su Ling’s eyes were filled with tears. After Gu Liheng went to the bathroom, he clenched his fist and thumped the pillow before burying his face in the pillow. Bastard! Outrageous![2]

The place where the medicine was applied is slightly hot but very comfortable. Su Ling knew that male god did it for his own good. But compared to this way of applying the medicine, he rather it hurt a little instead.

When the bathroom was opened again, a strong aroma of red wine came out, quickly sweeping the entire room. The bed sank, and Su Ling fell into a warm and strong embrace. He originally planned to wait for male god to come out and express his dissatisfaction with the way he applied the medicine. However, his body became so soft that he has forgotten to say anything. He just wants to entangle tightly with male god.

When Su Ling woke up again, the sky has already turned dark. There was a dim yellow night light in the bedroom, which was very warm. The pheromone mixed in the air has been dispersed, leaving only a soothing smell of fragrance. He glanced around the room, but he did not see male god. He tried to get up but stopped because his muscles were still aching. However, his condition is better than before, and the place behind felt much more comfortable. He sat cross-legged on the bed, recalling the scene before, and slowly frowned.

Gu Liheng carried the food into the room and saw Su Ling’s expression. He quickly put the food on the bedside table before placing the back of his hand against his forehead. Feeling that Su Ling’s temperature is normal, he relieved again.

“Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?” Gu Liheng asked worriedly.

Su Ling stared at male god before saying, “You didn’t mark me permanently, did you?” He recalled, “It doesn’t feel right, and you were not there when I woke up!”

After being a permanent marking, the AO pair won’t be able to separate from each other for a period of time. On the other hand, the duration is not correct either. A permanent marking cannot end in just one afternoon.

Hearing that, Gu Liheng’s heart softened. With the Omega requesting a permanent marking, it means that he has complete trust and gives himself to the other party. He held Su Ling’s hand and said, “Yes, I didn’t mark you permanently.” He looked into Su Ling’s eyes, “It is very irresponsible to mark an Omega completely before marriage.”

His beloved Omega allowed him to do whatever he wants with his body, and it is a great test for him to restrain the urge from marking him permanently. But he must restrain himself. His young man is smart but emotionally unbridled. He can’t ignore the custom just because the young man doesn’t understand.

Su Ling is not a pure Omega after all. He used to be a man on Earth so he didn’t have the self-protection concept or feeling disadvantaged. Moreover, he had absolute trust in Gu Liheng. Pouting, he said, “It’s not like you won’t take the responsibility.”

Gu Liheng said softly, “I just wanted for everything to be perfect for you.” Like all Omega’s fantasies to meet someone and fall in love, then having an unforgettable wedding, before finally experiencing the wonderful process of permanent marking.

On the other hand, Su Ling doesn’t really care about the order. “For me, it’s perfect if you can mark me permanently. Then we get married and stay together forever.”

Gu Liheng has a gentle expression, he didn’t try to correct Su Ling and said, “I know. I will make the arrangements as soon as possible.”

Su Ling pounced on Gu Liheng and asked, “What arrangements? Marriage or permanent marking?”

A smile flashed in Gu Liheng’s eyes, “Marriage.”

Thinking that the real purpose he wanted to do a permanent marking is for the marriage, Su Ling stopped worrying about the matter anymore. He thought about it and said, “I should also be prepared.”

“You don’t have to do anything.”

Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “How can I not do anything?”

Gu Liheng rubbed his black hair and comforted, “As you like then. Eat something first.”

Su Ling turned over and got out of the bed. As soon as he stood up, his legs suddenly softened. Fortunately, Gu Liheng caught him in time from falling. Gu Liheng hugged him and placed him on the bed. Su Ling kicked around and tried to step on the ground again, “I want to rinse my mouth first.”

Hence, Gu Liheng bent over and carried Su Ling with a princess carry to the bathroom.

Su Ling’s head bump at Gu Liheng’s shoulder as he said, “I want to increase the amount of exercise. I’m too weak.”

Gu Liheng chuckled, “You are an Omega, don’t mind so much about your physical fitness. It’s fine as long as you are healthy,” he paused before adding, “I like to hold you like this.”

Su Ling: “Aren’t you tired?”

“You are very light.” Gu Liheng said. Though he is carrying Su Ling, his breathing is still stable.

Seeing male god doing his thing effortlessly, Su Ling didn’t say anything. He rinsed his mouth before eating dinner. Then they went for a walk in the garden. His mood is feeling stable at the moment, and he thought about something, “What is the dark web?”

Gu Liheng explained, “Similar to a mercenary organization, but the tasks posted were all illegal. People who needed something will publish their task and bounties through the dark web, and the executors complete the tasks.”

Su Ling: “In other words, Giant Bear took the task posted by someone?” After he said that, he subconsciously explained, “I’m not trying to exonerate him, I just wanted to make it clear. The fact that he is not caught means the people behind him are also at large. He has acted on your father and may have no ill intentions for you.”

Gu Liheng shook his hand lightly and looked at Su Ling, “Don’t be nervous, I know you care about me. I have asked someone to check it out and assigned people to monitor those who might have the possibility to attack my father at that time. There will be results soon.”

Su Ling smiled, male god thought of the same thing as he did. At this moment, his bracelet rang and he connected the call.

Ni An: “Xiao Ling, I have successfully researched the effectiveness of that liquid. It can hide AO pheromone directly.”

Ni An’s voice was excited and he did not stop talking, “Except for during AO estrus period, the liquid can hide the pheromones for 20 hours in one use. It doesn’t have any side effects and doesn’t burden the glands.

Su Ling’s eyes lit up, “Can you tell me about the formula?”

Ni An easily agreed, “Yes,” he asked, “How much liquid do you still have?”

Su Ling estimated in his mind. Uncle Lóng can give him some vine liquid every day, which is about 50 ml per day. He said vaguely, “Not a lot.”

Ni An: “I have used a large part of the one you mailed to me for my research. I planned to give the rest to the research institute so that they can study for artificial substitutes. Can I?”

Su Ling: “Of course you can!”

It is best if a substitution is successfully created. Then even if one knows that the vine liquid belongs to Uncle Lóng, they won’t target Uncle Lóng.

Ni An: “Thank you, please come to my laboratory when you have time. I will show you the production process.”

Su Ling thought for a while and said, “I will be free tomorrow, can I go by at 10.00 am?”

Ni An: “Okay, I will give you an appointment card.”

After hanging up the call, Su Ling quickly received a 10.00 am electronic appointment card from Ni An. He glanced at it and turned off his bracelet. Then he told male god of the effect of vine juice, “Tomorrow I will go to Doctor Ni An’s laboratory to learn the formula.”

Gu Liheng: “I will accompany you.”

Su Ling smiled and grabbed his hand, “It’s nice to have a holiday together.”

[1] It’s not mentioned here due to river crab so Banana is throwing a guess that GLH is turning SL on and massaging his chrysanthemum hehe. Then he probably scissored him before applying some good lu-be.
[2] Probably related to the river crab above. SL is having a fit because he’s embarrassed by the preps? Idk _(;3/

Banana: Please tell me if I missed anything. Was speed translating this chapter and my mind felt numb from seeing all the words _(;3/  #IWannaGoPlayGames 😛

Chapter 68 – Fully recovered [OW]

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.
Hey guys, the next chapter 69 will be split into 2 parts because the word count is over 6K _(;3/

Hearing that, Su Ling immediately turned to the bed. Then he saw Gu Liheng’s affectionate and calm gaze fell on him, but his expression is still in a daze. Su Ling leaned close and asked, “Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”

Gu Liheng blinked his eyes and his eyes became clear. His gaze was on Su Ling all the time as he replied, “No.”

Su Ling smiled and said, “That’s good. You really frightened me to death, collapsed into a coma like that.”

Sitting up, Gu Liheng reached out to hug Su Ling, “Sorry, I won’t be like that anymore.”

He let go and lightly held Su Ling’s right wrist. Turning to look at Su Ling’s elbow, he saw the area has turned blue and purple, dotted with white scratched skin. Gu Liheng’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, and he moved sideways to get out of bed, “I will take you to treat the wound.”

Su Ling put his hand on Gu Liheng’s shoulder to stop his movement, “Wait,” he smiled and said, “It’s just skin trauma, it is not serious. Wait here, I’ll call a doctor. You will only be allowed to get out of bed after they checked you.”

Gu Liheng: “I’m fine.”

Su Ling: “This is the hospital. You are okay when the doctor said you are okay.” Then he paused and his voice lowered, “I think your previous situation was not quite right, so I contacted Mill.”

“Your mother knows about your situation now.”

Gu Liheng was silent for a moment, “Alright then.”

Su Ling smiled when their eyes met, “I’ll call a doctor.”

Mill and the doctor in-charge quickly arrived to check Gu Liheng. Mill asked a lot of questions, but Gu Liheng had a calm expression and answered in an orderly manner. Even when he talked about the scenes he feared during childhood that forced him to fall into a coma, his state was very stable. Mill was a little surprised, and soon smiled with relief, “Your tolerance is stronger than I expected. I am too conservative in your treatment.”

“You are very suitable to use the straightforward treatment and face the obstacles; fighting poison with poison.”

Su Ling’s eyes shone slightly, “Doctor Mill, what do you mean?”

Mill: “If he can maintain the current stable state, I can basically conclude that his mental disorder has healed.”

Su Ling: “But there are also chances that he hasn’t fully recovered?”

Mill nodded, “In the current situation, it is possible that after being stimulated, he would instinctively want to protect himself. Then his illness will go back and forth with its progress, but this kind of situation would usually be exposed quickly.”

Su Ling smiled and looked at Gu Liheng, “I think you are already well, you will not deceive yourself with self-protection.”

Hearing that, Gu Liheng’s expression turned soft, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, “En.”

Mill asked, “Can you tell me the reason for your sudden change?”

Gu Liheng’s gaze fell on Su Ling’s face before he said, “Ling Ling is injured… He is right in front of me, but my thoughts were occupied by panic and fear. It was as if I am in another space and he is far away from me.”

“He is my Omega, and I want to protect him. At that moment, I realized very clearly that I am no longer the younger me. I don’t need protection, instead I have to protect Ling Ling.”

He tilted his head slightly, “It is difficult to express in words. After I realized that I am an adult and I am the Alpha of my Omega, the things I fear subconsciously no longer make me afraid.”

“I can look at those things rationally from the eyes of an onlooker. I know very well that they will not cause harm to me now, and there is no danger.”

Mill laughed, “Listening to your words, I’m almost certain that you are cured. You are very strong. This time, you faced the stimulus, which is equivalent to high-intensity exposure therapy. Generally speaking, very few people could act like you. To be able to realize so soon that the stimulus is no longer harmful to you and then recovered your composure.”

Gu Liheng shook his head, “It’s too slow.” He has made the young man wait long enough.

Mill shook his head, but he didn’t refute Gu Liheng’s with the statistic numbers, “Congratulations for your recovery. I’m leaving first. Do contact me if you need anything.”

With a sincere tone, Gu Liheng thanked Doctor Mill, “Thank you.”

When Mill came out of the ward, he saw Mother Gu standing in the hallway on the right talking with someone. He hesitated for a while and stopped.

Mother Gu tidied up her hair subconsciously and smiled a bit before greeting Xiào Rui’s mother. In her heart, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief that she has taken care of her appearance before this.

Mother Xiào asked with concern, “Jia Yun, what are you doing in the hospital? Are you feeling well?”

Mother Gu shook her head, “It’s nothing,” she hung up her usual gentle smile and added, “I just came for a checkup, the doctor said I’m healthy.”

Lin Meng held Xiào Rui’s hand with a bright smile, “Aunt Gu has recovered nicely, so grandfather will definitely be fine.”

Mother Xiào smiled when she heard the words, and took Mother Gu’s hand, “Jia Yun, we both are lucky. Your Ling Ling and my Meng Meng are good children.”

Hearing that, Lin Meng’s face turned red, and he glanced at Xiào Rui with a shy grin. Xiào Rui fondly pinched his chin in return.

Then Mother Xiào continued, “When my father recovers, I must thank Ling Ling. Our Xiào family owed him a big favor.”

Mother Gu smiled slightly, but her fingers were tightly pinched together.

At this moment, a nurse came over to inform, “Mrs. Xiào, you can go in.”

Mother Xiào: “I’ll go to see the results of my father’s examination. Let’s make an appointment for tea together when I have time.”

Mother Gu nodded, “Okay.”

After the 3 people left, Mother Gu dropped her facade. Her shoulders were drooping, and she stood in place with complicated expressions.

“Madam Gu.”

Mother Gu turned her head and smiled subconsciously, “Doctor Mill,” she glanced at the ward before asking, “How is Ah Heng?”

“President Gu is okay,” Mill replied, hesitated for a moment and said, “Madam Gu, it may be a bit abrupt, but as a doctor, it is difficult for me to turn a blind eye. Your psychological condition is not very good.”

Mother Gu’s smile narrowed, “I have completely recovered.”

Mill: “During rejection period, you will miss your partner abnormally. You will be completely trapped in the memories of your partner, and all your eyes and attention will be on your partner.”

“Staying in this state for a long time will form a habit. Your thinking will be imprisoned in your memories or even turned rigid, even if your rejection illness is cured.”

Mill’s words were mild, and he finished speaking unhurriedly. Then he said, “If you need help, you can contact me at any time.”

Mother Gu turned away and left.

Mill sighed slightly and walked to the elevator.

Many AO who suffer from rejection illness will have this symptom. Falling into the memories of their partner, they are unable to get away, making the situation worse. Based on the current life expectancy in Planet Belle, most of the patients are still very young and can start a new life. If it was an AO pair from a normal divorce, it is easy for them to start a new life. Everyone is quite open-minded, so they can get together and split peacefully, without being affected by their emotions. However, for AO suffering from rejection, it’s hard because they only have each other in their world. It is easy to revolve their life around their partner. Hence, even if their rejection illness is cured, it is difficult to start a new life unless they are willing to receive treatment.

In the ward

The doctor wrote down the data from Gu Liheng’s various results and said, “You can go through the discharge procedures now.”

Gu Liheng: “Thank you.”

He got out of bed and lightly pressed his hand on Su Ling’s shoulder, “Wait for a while.”

Su Ling smiled and nodded.

Gu Liheng entered the bathroom and came out soon. His hair and clothes that were originally slightly messed up were neatly arranged.

When Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng, he has the feeling that he(GLH) has become slightly different. Though he(GLH) is still expressionless as usual, he made one feel more relaxed now. His posture is still straight, but with a more unrestrained feeling, not as serious and tight as before. This realization made Su Ling smiled deeper. Gu Liheng approached and held his left hand, and they walked out of the ward together.

Gu Liheng stood still at the door and looked around. After a moment of silence, he tapped his bracelet and sent a message to Mother Gu, “I’m fine now, where are you?”

Mother Gu stared at the message with a trance. She realized that this was the first time Ah Heng took the initiative to contact her. She glanced out of the car window. The sun was shining and her vision was clear, but she was wrapped in confusion, as if she was in chaos.

Ah Heng has a mental disorder because of her, and Su Ling has a life-saving grace for her. But Su Ling’s grandfather killed her partner, and Ah Heng wants to be with Su Ling… She frowned as she thought about it. Rubbing her forehead with her hand, she replied the message after a while, “Went home.”

Gu Liheng: “Take a good rest.”

After sending the message, Gu Liheng sent another message to the family driver and asked the driver to inform him when they returned at Gu Mansion. He closed his bracelet and looked at Su Ling, “She is my mother and you are my lover. I can’t control her thoughts, but I will not change my thoughts. I want to be with you.”

Su Ling pursed his lower lip. In fact, he had been wondering how to ask male god about them, and he was a little worried. After all, his maternal grandfather killed male god’s father. It is a completely different concept from his maternal grandfather being a criminal. He didn’t expect that male god would suddenly speak about it, directly dispelling his worries. He stood on tiptoe and kissed male god’s lips, “Be with me? Is this a marriage proposal?”

Gu Liheng held Su Ling’s waist and his eyes turned deep. Restraining the thoughts rising in his heart, he said in a deep voice, “No, it isn’t.” How could a good young man like him deserve such a casual proposal?

Su Ling’s eyes narrowed, “Liar, didn’t you say we will get married after you got better?”

A smile flashed in Gu Liheng’s eyes, and his hand held his left hand, “I won’t lie to you.” He took Su Ling to another department to treat his elbow injury. After the doctor treated the wound, he opened a bottle of medicated oil and said, “Apply it before going to bed and then massage hard. The trace will disappear within 2 days.”

Gu Liheng took the medicine oil, thanked the doctor politely, and walked out of the ward.

At the elevator, Su Ling remembered something and said, “We came by ambulance,” he smiled,

“have you ever taken a taxi before?”

Gu Liheng uttered an En and said, “We shall take a taxi today. I will ask the driver to pick us up at the gate of the villa area.”

When they got out of the elevator and walked outside the hospital, many people recognized them. Su Ling was calm and smiled at the people who said hello while Gu Liheng protected him and kept others away. Fortunately, the people in the hospital were either patients or relative of the patient. There were no media staff, so they managed to go out smoothly and took a taxi. The taxi driver recognized the two in the rearview mirror and was stunned, “Are you Gu company’s President Gu and Xian Mo Yu’s owner Su Ling?”

Su Ling smiled and said, “Hello, mister. You managed to recognize me at a glance, I’m flattered.”

The driver laughed, “You are famous after all. When I return home today, I’m so going to brag about it to my friends. Unfortunately, this car is small, otherwise I can see Xian Mo Yu with my own eyes.”

The driver was very talkative and Su Ling is in a good mood. Hence the two talked all the way until they reached their destination. When Su Ling was about to get out of the car, the driver turned to look at him and said, “You have a very good personality. It doesn’t matter what your grandfather does. Ignore those people talking trash on the Internet. Don’t be stressed out by them.”

Su Ling’s eyes curved up with a smile, “I know. Thank you, mister.”

Back at the villa, Su Ling was immediately caught into a tight hug. His back hit a firm chest and his left shoulder sank slightly. Tilting his head to a side, Su Ling saw male god resting his chin on his shoulder.

Gu Liheng has a complicated tone as he said, “You are so likable.”

Su Ling laughed, “Could it be you even feel jealous of the taxi driver? And…” He turned around, circling Gu Liheng’s neck with his hands and continued, “If I’m not likable, how can I make you like me?”

Gu Liheng’s eyes darkened, and his breathing gradually quickened.

“Master, time for lunch.” At this moment, Domi walked over to inform them.

Upon hearing that, Gu Liheng’s complexion became slightly stiff. He turned his head to the side and exhaled slightly. Then he held Su Ling’s wrist, and move them down from his neck, “Eat lunch.”

Su Ling followed behind Gu Liheng and poked his shoulder with a smile, “Do you know what should be your standard action just now?”

Puzzled, Gu Liheng turned to look at him.

Su Ling leaned closer, “You should hold me, kiss me,” he pointed to Domi behind him before adding, “Tell it that you are eating.”

Stunned, Gu Liheng quickly understood what it means. His breathing hitched, and he raised Su Ling’s hand to bite at his fingertips lightly, “You are not allowed to read those nonsense things in the future.”

Su Ling flexed his fingers and teased Gu Liheng’s lips.

Gu Liheng froze and let go of Su Ling’s hand. He stood still and pressed his lower lip.

“You…” Gu Liheng took a deep breath and bent over Su Ling’s ear before saying in a deep voice, “Don’t tease me. Your hand hurts right now, and your body can’t stand it. If you do it again…” He lowered his voice, “I won’t stop even if you cried and begged me.”

Su Ling’s heart beats wildly, and he pondered for a while, “Let’s go eat first.”
