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.”

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?”

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 😛

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.”

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

Welp, Banana is a bit late to release this chapter but hey, it’s only 200 words away to 5k word count which it will get split into 2 chapters yo _(;3/ good thing it’s not so we can go past this in one release~ A’ight, here’s a minor cliff warning and also some might feel uncomfortable while reading.

Seeing that Mother Gu’s ugly expression, Su Ling knew that his smile at the moment is inappropriate so he immediately corrected his expression, “I’m sorry.”

Mother Gu snorted. She didn’t bother to talk to Su Ling and looked at Gu Liheng, “Break up with him, I don’t agree with you being together.”

Gu Liheng’s tone was firm, “Impossible.”

“Why not?!” Mother Gu’s voice raised, “You didn’t mark him permanently.”

With a solemn expression, Gu Liheng said, “I like him.”

Hearing that gave Mother Gu a choke. She watched Gu Liheng for a while, and became calmer when she spoke again, “Even if you and the Gu company were maliciously slandered because of him?”

“Yes,” Gu Liheng said, “I will deal with the rumors on the Internet. Giant Bear’s behavior has nothing to do with Ling Ling, and he should not be blamed inexplicably.” As he said that, he lightly shook Su Ling’s hand. Then he opened his bracelet and contacted his personal assistant and the company’s public relations department.

Mother Gu saw Gu Liheng’s small movements clearly, and the corners of her mouth sank. She looked at him and did not speak for a while. Unknowingly, her son has grown to this age, unlike the times he followed her around when he was young. She felt depressed, a little sad, and even a little confused. She rejected her parents’ advice to remarry and forced her son to take charge of the Gu family. Just to end up with this current situation?

The living room quieted down for a while, and Su Ling saw that Mother Gu is not going to speak, so he looked down at his bracelet to browse the news. The news about his life experience was blown up online. He has been placed under spotlight due to Xian Mo Yu in the past 2 days, so he is very famous to start with. This time, the topic involves the Gu company and criminals from the dark web, so rumors about his life are still growing. There are people who questioned his character, but there were also people who pitied him for his life experience.

On the other hand, Su Ling also saw the statement issued by Father Su, indicating that he did not know about Qin Min’s family background. He only thought that she was an orphan and followed the orders of his elders to marry Qin Min. As for the popular spiritual plants, they have also become hotly debated. Many enthusiastic people even called out whether anyone has lost any high-level spiritual plants previously.

After a quick scan on the topics, Su Ling wrote a post on his page.

“My mother died when I was 2 years old. She has never mentioned my grandfather, so I only know the identity of my grandfather today. If the spiritual plants were really obtained illegally, I will return them to their original owner after investigation. Don’t try to make a false claim, I will hand whoever with ill intentions over to the police.”

Just after he posted that post, Su Ling received a call from Nalu. He looked at the pair of mother and son and got up, “Sorry, I will go out to take a call.”

Gu Liheng looked up at him, and he(SL) smiled while pointing at the door. He walked out of the living room and connected the call by the garden, “Uncle Nalu.”

Nalu’s tone was anxious, “Xiao Ling, how are you? I just saw the news.”

Su Ling: “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

Hearing Su Ling’s calm voice, Nalu breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good,” he hesitated for a moment before continuing, “What people said online about your background is probably true.”

Su Ling was not surprised. The information that Mother Gu investigated are unlikely to be wrong.

“But,” Nalu paused for a while, and then quickly said, “Your grandfather’s matter has nothing to do with your mother. She has not talked about her background before, but there was once she cried after drinking…”

“Only then I knew then that she was not an orphan. She ran to Planet Belle to avoid her father. Don’t blame her.”

Qin Min’s gentle appearance appeared in Su Ling’s mind, and he felt a little heavy in his heart.

“I won’t blame her, no matter what my mother’s background is, I respect her,” he said and asked, “Do you know how did my mother get the 3 Grade A spiritual plants?”

Nalu: “I know about this. It was given to your mother by someone else, but she wanted to return it. Your grandfather didn’t want her to do so and planned to snatch it. So she ran away with the spiritual plants.”

Nalu sighed before adding, “That time, your mother cried very sadly. I can see that she probably like the person who gifted her the spiritual plant very much, but she said they won’t be happy together. At that time, I could not understand what she means because your mother is a very good Omega. But now I understand why she said that.”

Su Ling pursed his lower lip, “Why does she want to marry into Su’s family?”

Nalu: “She helped your grandfather and grandmother (Su Family side) before, and she was very popular with them. The two elders are good people, and they want to repay your mother. They pity her for being alone and had the thought to match her with your father. Later, when your mother was in estrus, your father permanently marked her and they have you.”

Nalu’s tone was low, “This is really a mess. Your father and your stepmother were still in love at the time. There was a lot of trouble going on and your mother was in a difficult situation.”

Su Ling: “Why are there always people who hurt other people with the slogan ‘I’m thinking for your own good’?!” Su Ling couldn’t help but exploded, “My Su grandfather and grandmother, are you trying to harm my mother to death?!”

Nalu: “They thought it would be better if your mother has someone to care of her, and it would be really good for your mother. Just that they are too arbitrary and didn’t ask for your mother’s opinion.”

Su Ling asked, “Isn’t the permanent marking washable?”

Nalu sighed again, “The two elders held your father responsible, and within 2 days it was discovered that your mother was pregnant. Washing the mark will damage her body. During an O’s pregnancy, in order to protect the weak O, the law prohibits both AO pair from washing off the mark.”

“So Xiao Ling, unless you are sure you will be together with President Gu, you can’t just…” Nalu coughed, “You can’t just casually do the permanent marking.”

Su Ling thought to himself, even if he wanted to, President Gu is not willing to do it. He replied, “En, I know.”

Nalu thought of the news that he saw today, and couldn’t help but worry, “They are rich people, and they value fame and family background most. Did President Gu’s mother embarrass you?”

Su Ling subconsciously glanced at the door before answering, “No.”

There was a faint arguing noise coming from the living room. Su Ling frowned and covered the speaker part of his bracelet, “Uncle Nalu, you don’t have to worry about me. Be careful in the store.”

Nalu: “En, En, remember to contact me if anything happens.”

Su Ling breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Nalu didn’t hear the noise, otherwise he would get his face slapped on the spot.

“Goodbye, Uncle Nalu.”

After hanging up the call, Su Ling quickly entered the living room. The pair of mother and son who had been sitting together were standing confronting each other. The atmosphere was very tense, and neither of them even noticed him.

“If you still dare to be with him, I won’t recognise you as my son!” Mother Gu’s voice was particularly sharp, as if she was on the verge of collapse.

Su Ling was stunned and didn’t understand why Mother Gu’s attitude was so hard. He looked at Gu Liheng and soon realized that something is wrong, that male god is in a bad condition. His expression was as solemn as usual, but stiffer, and with an imperceptible panic.

Gu Liheng did not give any response to Mother Gu.

Mother Gu took a step forward and asked, “Say it, are you still reluctant to separate from him, HUH?!” Her voice broke at the last exclamation, with a sad expression. Then she raised her right hand and slapped Gu Liheng hard.

A ‘PA’ sound reverberated in the living room.

Gu Liheng stood straight on the spot, his face slightly turned sideways, and his pupils contracted rapidly. There was confusion in his mind, and the screaming and crying surrounded him with fear.

“Ah Heng! Why are you not obedient?” the young mother asked sharply, and choked up, “If you are not obedient, mother will leave and I don’t want you anymore.”

No! Please don’t ignore me. Father is already gone. What can I do by myself?

Gu Liheng seemed to have returned to that time when he was young, the younger him was very panicked. Then a wave of panic attacked him, submerged him, and wrapped around him tightly.

Su Ling didn’t expect Mother Gu to make a move so suddenly. His heart jerked up, and he ran to Gu Liheng quickly, “Li Heng.”

Mother Gu’s palm was red, and it felt numb. She stared at her palm blankly and looked over with cold eyes when she heard Su Ling’s shout. Mother Gu was standing slightly on the outside, and Su Ling had to pass her first to reach Gu Liheng. Just as Su Ling was about to pass her, she violently stretched out her hand to push him, “It’s all because of you,” her eyes were red, “Get out of here!”

At that time, Su Ling was anxious for Gu Liheng and ran very fast. Being pushed abruptly, his foot caught the leg of a furniture and he fell heavily to the ground. “Urgh…” His right arm landed first and then took the weight of his whole body. The hard bones at the elbow hit the ground, which hurt so much. Su Ling clutched his arm and gro-an-ed[1] in pain.

Gu Liheng raised his eyes quickly, and his eyes fell on Su Ling. His thoughts were still caught in his memory, but his feet unconsciously brought him to run over. Squatting down, he reached out to hold the person in his arms.

Su Ling immediately found that male god’s body is shaking. Just as he is about to speak, the sound of high heels clacking on the ground could be heard quickly approaching.

Gu Liheng’s shoulder was grabbed by Mother Gu and pulled back, “Gu Liheng! He is the grandson of the killer who killed your father. And you still dare to hold him?! Have you ever thought about your father? Have you thought about me?”

Veins were popping on the hand Gu Liheng placed on Su Ling’s shoulder, and his fingertips trembled fiercely.

Su Ling’s eyes widened, and he looked at Mother Gu abruptly, “What did you say?”

Mother Gu looked at Su Ling like an enemy, “Your grandfather created the accident and killed Ah Heng’s father!”

Two big words ‘Dog Blood’ appeared in Su Ling’s mind. After a moment of loss, he asked Gu Liheng in a low voice, “Really?”

Gu Liheng didn’t answer, but held him tighter and his breathing gradually became faster. Su Ling knew in his heart that it is true. He guessed that Mother Gu gave out the detailed information when he went out to pick up the call.

“I have the evidence, so don’t even think to deny it.” Mother Gu said angrily, using her hands to force Gu Liheng to let Su Ling go.

Gu Liheng stood still with his jaw tightened, and a thin layer of sweat covered his forehead.

Unable to make Gu Liheng loosen his grip, and couldn’t get the answer she wanted, a deep helplessly swept over Mother Gu. She let go and grasped her fist, changing from pull to punch. She beat Gu Liheng on the shoulder, crying as she hit him, and her voice choked, “Why do I have a son like you? Have you forgotten how good your father is to you?”

“Even if I die, I won’t let you be together!” She suddenly raised her voice, “Otherwise, how can I have the face to face your father? How can you dare to say that you are his son?”

The sweat from Gu Liheng’s forehead dripped onto Su Ling’s cheeks. Su Ling stretched out his hand and wiped it, then tilted his head back a bit, waiting to see Gu Liheng’s face. However, his body suddenly became heavy. Su Ling supported the ground with his hand and hurriedly stabilized his body. He shouted, “Li Heng!”

The other party did not respond and collapsed into a coma.

Mother Gu was stunned, “Ah Heng?” She pushed at Gu Liheng’s shoulder, “Ah Heng, wake up.”

Su Ling quickly calmed down and immediately contacted the ambulance. Thinking of the peculiarities Gu Liheng displayed previously, he notified Mill as well. The ambulance arrived very quickly, and on the way to the hospital, the accompanying doctor gave Gu Liheng a full-body examination. He gave the result, “There is no problem with his body.”

“How can someone suddenly fall into a coma without a problem?” Mother Gu asked with a calm face.

Doctor: “There may be many reasons. We will need to give him a more detailed and comprehensive examination.”

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng’s face and pinched the bridge of his nose. Isn’t this kind of dog blood plot meant for the protagonist? He is obviously just some passerby in the book! No matter what, he knows his heart very well. He wants to be together with male god, but what about male god… Can he not mind? Until Gu Liheng is sent to the emergency room, Su Ling was still thinking about this question. Knowing that he couldn’t answer this question, he couldn’t help thinking about it.

Mother Gu looked at him with an ugly expression, “What happened to Ah Heng?”

“I don’t know.” Su Ling said.

“How can you not know if you are with him every day?” Mother Gu was unhappy with the answer.

Su Ling: “He is usually healthy.”

While talking, Mill arrived to the hospital. Mother Gu was a little surprised to see him and called out, “Doctor Mill.”

Mill nodded and greeted her.

Mother Gu: “Why are you coming back here?”

Su Ling: “I asked Dr. Mill to come.” He looked at Mill and pointed down the aisle on the left. “Let’s talk here.”

Su Ling and Mill went to the left aisle. Su Ling explained, “Li Heng has never let his mother know about his condition, so I can’t disclose it.”

Mill nodded understandingly, “What’s the matter?”

Su Ling recounted what happened carefully, paying particular attention to Gu Liheng’s reaction, “I thought his reactions were not quite right at the time, he was quite dazed.” Thinking about it makes Su Ling annoyed, “I should talk to him more and adjust his emotions.” It’s just that Mother Gu is there, so it was quite difficult to do so.

“This has nothing to do with you,” Mill looked serious. “I probably know what’s going on. I’ll talk to the doctor in-charge later.”

The doctor soon came out from the emergency room and said, “The patient is in good health. His coma is due to overstimulation.”

When Mother Gu heard it, she immediately glared at Su Ling, “It’s all because of you!”

Su Ling’s heart sank suddenly. Could it be male god got overstimulated because his grandfather harmed his father?

Mill’s always gentle face was a little serious, “Madam Gu, I think this matter is probably related to you.”

Mother Gu: “How is it possible?”

Mill did not immediately explain, but looked to the doctor, “Hello, I am President Gu’s psychiatrist,” he showed his ID, “I want to take part in his treatment.”

Doctor: “Great, with your participation, the treatment is easier. But you have to go through the procedures first.”

Mill nodded understandingly and followed the doctor through the procedures.

Mother Gu stood there with disbelief on her face, “Ah Heng’s psychiatrist? How could Ah Heng need a psychiatrist?”

Su Ling glanced at her and said nothing. If he felt skeptical about this previously, Mill’s words just now have already confirmed that male god’s mental disorder is related to Mother Gu.

The doctor and Mill quickly worked out a treatment plan, and Gu Liheng was sent to the VIP ward.

Mother Gu looked at Mill and asked, “What the hell is going on with Ah Heng?”

Mill: “He has been reluctant to let you know, but the doctor and I agreed that his treatment needs your cooperation.”

“He has always had a psychological disorder. He had no treatment when he was young, and his condition became more serious when he grew up, but he didn’t pay attention.”

“Three years ago, I became your psychiatrist. During that time when I was treating you, I noticed his problems. After your condition stabilized, I talked to him about his state but he refused treatment, or probably he felt unnecessary.”

Mother Gu’s lips trembled, “What kind of mental disorder?”

Mill: “Expression, everything related to appearance.” Mill explained it again, and then sighed slightly, “You are the cause of all this.”

“In fact, not only that, his childhood experience left a trauma in his heart, and he would suffer from insomnia and nightmares.”

“Your beating, scolding, questioning, crying will make him nervous and flustered. Your smile is only the appearance, and what he is nervous about is the scolding that immediately follows after the smile.”

Mother Gu was dumbfounded, “Why, he never said it before,” she said in a higher tone, “he is so strong, he is the person in charge of the Gu family. It is impossible for him to be as weak as you said!”

Mill frowned, “Madam Gu, this has nothing to do with weakness. In fact, President Gu is an elite. Before I saw him in person, I didn’t feel that he had a mental disorder at all. He is a very powerful man.” He added, “It’s hard for someone with the same experience as him to do this.”

Su Ling felt very distressed. Male god was only 8 years old at that time. He lost his father, and his mother was strict and even mentally abnormal. Moreover, there were many malicious people around him. Such an environment makes one feel depressed just by thinking about it.

Mother Gu’s expression was dazed, as if her energy was taken away in an instant, leaving only an empty shell. She muttered to herself, “How could this be…”

Su Ling asked Mill, “How can I wake him up?”

Mill: “You are the key. He cares about you very much. Talk to him more and use soothing fragrances. He should wake up soon.”

“It’s just,” Mill paused. “After being overstimulated, there are 2 possibilities for his condition upon waking up, either for the better or for the worse. Generally speaking, the possibility for the worse is greater. You have to be mentally prepared.”

Su Ling nodded.

Mill turned to Mother Gu, “You are not suitable to appear in front of President Gu when his waking is not confirmed.”

Mother Gu looked depressed. She glanced at the hospital bed before turning around and went out.

After Mill put the perfume on the head of the bed, he went out of the ward with the doctor.

Su Ling walked to the bed and sat down and looked at Gu Liheng for a while. His eyes were closed, but his brows were tucked tightly. He was not at peace even when unconscious. Grabbing Gu Liheng’s right hand with both hands, Su Ling bowed his head and pecked, “Do you know that I am very worried about you lying down like this?”

He babbled for a long time and said many words of love confession, but the other party didn’t respond. He squeezed his(GLH) fingertips and said, “I just fell down, but you only know to hold me. You didn’t ask if my elbow hurts, you are so dumb!”

“Does it hurt?” A magnetic, hoarse voice sounded in his ears.

Banana: A bit spoiler-ish but for those who are concerned, please remember that this is a happy novel yo~~ XD We don’t do excessive abuse in here~~ For those who wanted angst and plot twist for 10-20 chapters, sorry to disappoint you 😛

[1] Censored to avoid possible problem with ads provider. No, I’m not kidding.

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

Feeling an itchy feeling from his shoulder, Su Ling lightly shrank his shoulders and placed his hands around Gu Liheng’s neck, “It doesn’t hurt. You know, my body is easy to leave marks.”

Gu Liheng’s body was still stiff, so Su Ling took a step back and poked his cheek. With a smile, he said, “Relax, I’m fine.” Then he paused, “You don’t need to care about Gu An. He deliberately did that to agitate you.”

Gu Liheng’s tone was low, “Don’t look at him.”

Amused, Su Ling asked, “Why do I want to look at him? Could it be you are jealous? I have no interest in anyone other than you.”

Hearing that, Gu Liheng’s expression gradually eased. He reached out and hugged Su Ling, “Thank you.”

Su Ling adjusted himself to a comfortable posture and asked, “Thank me for what?”

“Thank you for loving me,” Gu Liheng said affectionately, “Being loved by you is the best thing I have ever encountered in my life.”

The young man’s straightforward and undisguised affection gave him stability and makes him obsessed.

Su Ling’s eyebrows curved up as he said, “It’s my greatest pleasure to meet you.” Because of his mother’s experience, Su Ling’s outlook on feelings is actually very pessimistic, but in his heart, he is a person who is very afraid of being alone. He once had the most perfect vision for the future when he met a responsible person, and the two would live happily together. But he found that his vision is too difficult to be done. It is difficult to live together happily even with a marriage guarantee, let alone a person like him without any guarantee. That’s why when he read the novel, he yearned for the world in the story. And the reason why he regarded Gu Liheng as his male god is because Gu Liheng is very reliable. In the beginning, he simply wanted to be with male god and have a stable relationship. But now, his mentality has changed a lot. Love is the reason why he wants to stay together with male god.

Gu Liheng sighed in his heart. His young man can talk better than him, and he is very lucky. If he hadn’t met Su Ling, he might have stayed single all his life. He stroked the young man’s soft hair and said solemnly, “About Gu An, I’ll take care of him. Don’t take any actions by yourself.”

“You can’t break the law!” Su Ling said, “I have declared my stand to him. Hence, I need to teach him a lesson and make him see the consequences of scheming against me.”

Gu Liheng: “The proper channels are enough to deal with him. I will make him see the consequences,” he looked at Su Ling, “Don’t contact him yourself.”

Feeling amused, but seeing Gu Liheng with a serious face, Su Ling said, “Alright ‘vinegar jar’, I promised…”

Gu Liheng didn’t refute the nickname but lowered his head to hide the coldness in his eyes. He is very familiar with Gu An. The way he(GA) looked at the young man, he is definitely interested in him(SL).

…

On his way home, Gu An received detailed background data of Su Ling from his subordinates. He looked through them one by one, and his eyes finally landed on Su Ling’s photos. My father is right, Gu Liheng is really lucky! Then, the young man’s unkind expression appeared in his mind.

“Young master, we have arrived,” the driver said.

Gu An glanced at the photo and got out of the car. He went to the study, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

“Come in.” Gu Ming’s voice came from inside.

“Father,” Gu An walked into the study and greeted respectfully while forwarding Su Ling’s information to Gu Ming. “His father is Su Ya, the president of Su’s spiritual plant company. His mother is Qin Min, who has no relatives, and died when Su Ling was 2 years old. “

Gu Ming’s gaze fell on Qin Min’s photo when Gu An said this, and he frowned slightly.

Noticing that, Gu An’s eyes moved slightly, but he did not ask anything. He continued with his report, “According to the investigation, Su Ling’s 3 Grade A spiritual plants were left to him by his mother and have been stored in the insurance company until this year.”

“The source of the Grade S spiritual plants is not clear…Father?” Gu Ming stood up so suddenly that Gu An asked in surprise.

Gu Ming said nothing and quickly walked to the bookshelf on the right. Then he took out a box from the upper right corner.

Seeing that, Gu An was a little surprised. What does his father want to do with old bracelets? Nowadays, the development of personal bracelets has stabilized, so the frequency of people replacing one has slowed down, but most people will change one at least once every 10 years. Every time one change their bracelet, all data will be transferred entirely to the new one. Of course, some people will delete some useless data, or they will leave some data to be stored in the old bracelet.

Gu Ming placed the box on the desk and opened the box. He took out the bracelet that he replaced 17 years ago and turned on the power with his fingerprint. He tapped on the old bracelet for a while and called up the holographic screen, “Come and take a look.”

Gu An walked over and froze when he saw the photo of a girl in the holographic screen, “This is… Qin Min?”

Although Qin Min looked younger in this photo than the one in Su Ling’s profile, her facial features didn’t change much. It just that the photo in the profile looked more mature and haggard.

“No wonder I couldn’t find her information at that time. She changed her name.” Gu Ming said.

Gu An asked, “Father, why did this picture come from?”

Gu Ming: “Giant Bear gave it to me. When he accepted my commission, besides the job fee, he also asked me to find this woman in Belle for him.”

Hearing, Gu An was even more surprised, “What is their relationship?”

The answer he heard from Giant Bear that time immediately appeared in Gu Ming’s mind. There was a harsh chill in his rough voice, “Of course it’s my baby girl.” He felt shocked at the time, so the impression was particularly deep. However, Gu Ming is more assured that this kind of person has a higher success rate in doing things. Facts have proved that this is indeed the case, and things were done perfectly.

Gu Ming regained his senses from the memory and replied, “His daughter,” as he said, he couldn’t help laughing, “Gu Liheng actually fell in love with that person’s grandson, the killer who killed his father.” He laughed for a long time before stopping, “I really want to see how Gu Liheng and my good sister-in-law will look like when they heard the news.”

Turning to look at Gu An, Gu Ming asked, “Didn’t you say that Gu Liheng has a psychological problem? He has been too comfortable recently, we should make this exciting for him.”

Gu An: “But Father, Aunty is investigating what happened back then. What if this accidentally affects us?”

Gu Ming: “It won’t. I used temporary communication to communicate with Giant Bear back then. All communication records have been destroyed, it is impossible to link it back to us.”

Gu Ming pondered for a while before saying, “You don’t need to worry about this. Just stay low for the meantime. Gu Liheng and the military will definitely be monitoring us. As for Secretary Yan’s family, please comfort them with enough compensation.”

Gu An nodded and couldn’t help asking, “But Father, what are you going to do? They have been watching us closely recently…”

“You don’t need to worry about this. I only need to reveal a little bit of information. Your aunt will definitely find out the rest.”

…

In the fragrance room, Su Ling took out the test product placed in the ageing device the day before. He smelled the fragrance one by one and made notes at the same time. Some finished products smelled like an enhanced version of the raw materials scent, while others become entirely different. Seeming to have a chemical reaction, the smell is strange and unpleasant.

Su Ling frowned, quickly put the lid on the glass bottle and fanned the air at his nose. He wrote down the raw materials of the fragrance and added a note to remind himself that the two cannot be mixed together in the future. This is the first time that he used a variety of raw materials to make a fragrance. Only then did he discover that many spiritual plants would react to each other, causing the smell to be unpleasant. He sighed slightly, making fragrance really isn’t that easy.

Well, thinking about it, it’s logical to be hard. Otherwise, there won’t be a major at school, focusing on making fragrance. He didn’t get discouraged, on the contrary, he felt a sense of familiarity. Back then, when he did chemical experiments, he often saw wonderful chemical reactions of different substances. He has the feeling of returning to the laboratory.

Taking out the successful products, he arranged them in a row and cleaned up the failed test products. He held 3 glass bottles and tilted his head to look to the corner. Gu Liheng is sitting on the sofa with a serious and stern expression while tapping swiftly on the holographic keyboard, issuing commands one after another. He glanced at the time and saw that male god had been working continuously for an hour and a half. It’s time for a short rest. He took the glass bottles and walked towards the corner. When he was approaching, Gu Liheng turned his head and looked over.

Su Ling smiled, and shook the glass bottles in his hand shook, “Try to smell it.”

Gu Liheng nodded, and Su Ling opened a glass bottle. Gu Liheng leaned over on the seat’s armrest and placed the glass bottle in front of his nose. Then he said, “It’s refreshing, and my spirit has improved.”

Su Ling smiled, “Then it’s not suitable to use before going to bed.”

He capped the glass bottle and was about to open the second glass bottle when Domi came in.

“Master, your mother is here.”

Gu Liheng frowned slightly and closed his bracelet.

Su Ling straightened up, stepped back, turned around and put the glass bottle away before heading out with Gu Liheng. As soon as he walked to the living room, Su Ling immediately noticed Mother Gu’s eyes on him with a very obvious dislike or even disdain.

Gu Liheng was unhappy with that, and stepped forward slightly to block in front of Su Ling, “Mother.”

Su Ling walked out from behind Gu Liheng, as if unaware of Mother Gu’s gaze and greeted, “Hello, Auntie.”

With an expressionless face, Mother Gu said, “I want to talk to Ah Heng, it’s not suitable for you to be here.”

Su Ling stood still, “If it’s related to me, I want to hear it.”

Mother Gu frowned, “You are being impolite, am I not clear enough? I don’t want you to be there.”

“Mother,” Gu Liheng’s jaw tightened, and his tone was strong, “Ling Ling can listen to any conversation between us.”

Mother Gu clenched her fists, and her chest heaved violently. She stared at Gu Liheng for a while, before nodding with an angry smile, “Fine, you are really grown up. You said you want him to listen? Then make sure to listen carefully, I’ll see if he still have the face to stay after this.”

Gu Liheng took Su Ling’s hand and sat opposite Mother Gu.

Mother Gu turned on her bracelet and called up the holographic screen to enable the sharing mode. She opened 2 photos first; both of which were single-shot photos.

Upon seeing the photos, Su Ling’s expression changed slightly. He is too familiar with the person in the photo; that’s his mother, who is also this body’s mother.

Mother Gu: “Do you know this person?”

Su Ling nodded, “My mother.”

Mother Gu continued to show 2 more photos, both of which were taken together. In the photo, Qin Min was embraced by a tall and sturdy man, but her lips were tight, and she looked unhappy.

“Do you know who this man is?” Mother Gu asked. Seeing Su Ling shaking his head, she snorted, “Your maternal grandfather, Onis.”

The photos disappeared, replaced by another group of photos and text data. In the photos, Onis is in different places, with dead people, fires, and explosions in the background… The only thing in common is the triumphant smile on his face.

Mother Gu’s expression was cold, with disgust, “He also has a nickname called Giant Bear, a top performer of the dark web. 11 years ago, the dark web was destroyed by the military and many people were arrested. However, your grandfather is still at large. “

She turned to look at Gu Liheng, “His mother is the killer’s daughter, and he is the killer’s grandson. If it’s just having a bad family background, I can accept it, but I cannot tolerate him to discredit our Gu family’s name.”

“You,” she stared at Su Ling, “If you really think for Ah Heng’s sake, stay away from him. If you are with him, it will be a stain in his life!”

Su Ling frowned and did not speak immediately. He didn’t know whether these backgrounds were the behind-the-scenes stories thought up by the author of the story or created by his arrival in the world. But there is no doubt that these are his own life experiences and identity that cannot be changed.

Gu Liheng held Su Ling’s hand slightly and looked at Mother Gu, “Giant Bear is Giant Bear, and what he did has nothing to do with Ling Ling.”

Mother Gu’s voice raised up, “Nothing to do with him? Did you see what’s spreading online? His spiritual plants might be stolen stuff; snatched from someone else by his grandfather!”

“As soon as I got the news, I immediately asked people to check it. I rushed here as soon as I received the information. What did you think I did that? Ain’t it just because of you? You will be criticized when you stay together with the grandson of a criminal. Our Gu company will also be dragged into it.”

“I don’t care what other people think,” Gu Liheng said in a deep voice, “Ling Ling is innocent.”

Mother Gu: “Innocent? I don’t think he is an easy character. Otherwise, at such a young age, how could he get you hooked in a short time?” She threw Su Ling a bad look, “If you did this for money, I could give it to you. You are not allowed to appear in front of Ah Heng again in the future.”

Su Ling couldn’t help laughing when he heard this – this scene still came.

Hearing Su Ling’s laugh, Mother Gu is unhappy, “What are you laughing at?”

Su Ling: “Sorry, I don’t want your money, I will not leave him.”

He glanced at the holographic screen, “I will not deny my life experience, but before that, I didn’t know the identity of my grandfather, let alone knowing that he still exists. I haven’t read the news online yet. But if, as you said, my grandfather stole those spiritual plants, I will return it.”

He is still unable to determine the source of the 3 Grade A spiritual plants. If they were obtained illegally, he would not keep them and return the property to the original owner. On the other hand, he is pretty sure that Papa Xian and Uncle Lóng had nothing to do with anyone.

Mother Gu sneered, “What about returning it? Can your grandfather’s bad behaviour be covered up?”

“I only do what I should do,” Su Ling said seriously, “His evil deeds have nothing to do with me, and I disagree with it. It is very unreasonable for someone to ask me to atone for his crimes. Suppose the ancestors’ sins are countable against the future generations, with humanity having a long history, I don’t think there will be many people left that are truly innocent.”

Mother Gu: “You would say that. It’s no wonder that you have a tight grip on my son.”

Although he shouldn’t act like that, Su Ling still couldn’t help laughing out after hearing these words. Because it means any bystander could see that male god loves him very much.

Mother Gu jeered at Su Ling, “You are feeling proud, aren’t you?”
