Second Marriage with the Alliance Marshal

Chapter 76: Susceptibility period (3)

Views:

Xu Xinghe felt that he had slept for a long time, but when he woke up again, only three hours had passed.

It was still rainy and gloomy outside the window, with dark clouds covering the entire city of Suk, making the sky at four o'clock in the afternoon look like a dark night.

Xu Xinghe listened to the sound of the rain alone by the window for a while, then turned and left the room, walking towards the ward.

In the distance, before approaching the ward, I saw a small pink dumpling.

Xu Xinghe was taken aback for a moment, and stopped.

At the door of the ward, stood a little girl in a pink skirt.

The girl is holding a rag doll in her left hand and a book in her right hand, standing alone at the door of the room, looking up at the door.

She looked about four or five years old, and she was thin and small. Hearing the sound of footsteps, the girl shuddered, and ran behind the wall with her short legs, then poked out half of her head, carefully looking at Xu Xinghe.

Xu Xinghe's heart trembled.

The girl has a pair of black, translucent, cute little deer eyes.

A bit like her mother, and a bit like myself.

Perhaps due to the lack of sunshine in Suk City, the girl's skin is very fair, and her hair is slightly dark yellow. Although she is thin and small, her face still has some baby fat.

Xu Xinghe stepped forward and knelt down in front of the girl.

"Are you Lily?"

He remembered the first name the woman on the hospital bed called when she opened her eyes, and guessed that it should be her daughter's name.

The little girl nodded and asked curiously, "Big brother, who are you?"

"I..." Xu Xinghe was speechless for a while, "I am mother's... relative, and also your relative."

The girl hid half of her body behind the wall, tilting her head and looking at him.

Those little deer eyes blinked and blinked, and there was a bit of curiosity in the eyes, but they didn't continue to ask, but just nodded ignorantly.

Xu Xinghe asked warmly: "Why are you standing at the door and not going in?"

Lily replied childishly, "The doctor is examining mom, let me come out first."

Xu Xinghe nodded: "How old are you?"

Lily stretched out her little arm and compared the number "five" with her right hand: "I'm five years old, and I can go to school next year."

She was so cute, Xu Xinghe couldn't hold back, and reached out to rub the little girl's head.

Lily shrank her neck, but did not hide.

Xu Xinghe smiled, and asked her again: "You... where is your brother?"

"My brother should go to school. He lived on campus all the time. After his mother got sick, he didn't go to school very much, but his mother kept telling him to go back to school. They had a quarrel about it yesterday..." Lily said After finishing, I suddenly remembered that my mother told me not to chat with strangers casually.

She quickly covered her mouth as if to make amends, and immediately put it down again.

The big brother in front of her has a very comfortable intimacy, which makes her feel that he is not a bad person, so she said a lot without knowing it.

While the two were talking, the door of the ward was opened and the doctor came out.

Xu Xinghe got up and took the little girl's hand: "Come on, I'll go in with you to see mom."

The complexion of the woman on the hospital bed was still very bad, but her dull eyes were brightened again because of the appearance of the two of them.

As soon as Lili saw her mother, she rushed forward, and Xu Xinghe followed behind her, holding the woman's hand again.

The woman's physical condition is very bad, and about half of the day is spent in sleep.

She no longer has the strength to play with her little daughter, and the five-year-old girl sat quietly on the carpet in front of the hospital bed without crying or making noise, holding the doll and reading a book by herself. It hurts.

Xu Xinghe sat on the chair in front of the bed. When the woman was awake, he would tell her some stories that happened to him over the years. When the woman fell asleep again, he would walk up to Lily and sit next to her on the carpet. Come down, and then turn on your portable optical computer, pick an e-book that you haven't finished reading before, and read it together under the light.

Just staying until dinner time, Lily very enthusiastically invited Xu Xinghe to stay and have dinner together.

Xu Xinghe reached out and touched the little sister's head, and said in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, brother has an appointment tonight, and I can't miss the appointment. You have dinner with your mother first, and I will accompany you to eat tomorrow."

He thought, there are some things he still needs to clarify with Ling Changfeng.

Lily was a little disappointed, but she nodded obediently, hugged her doll and said, "Well, see you tomorrow!"

When Xu Xinghe left the ward, he suddenly realized that he didn't know where he was going.

Before Ling Changfeng left, he said that he would come to pick him up in the evening, but it was already past six o'clock in the evening, but he hadn't received the other party's email, nor had he seen Ling Changfeng himself.

Just as I was about to make a call to ask about it, the mailbox rang—

Ling Changfeng said in the email that he had something to do at the last minute, and he couldn't come to dinner, so he asked him to eat first.

Xu Xinghe was stunned for two seconds, then turned off the screen calmly, turned and walked back to the ward.

He recalled the conversation between the two before they separated, and belatedly realized that they seemed to have quarreled.

In fact, for a moment, he was sure that Ling Changfeng was angry, and he seemed to know why the other party was angry, but he was still powerless about it.

This is probably not anyone's fault, it's just that the two sides have different ways of thinking and different angles of dealing with things, so it is unavoidable.

Xu Xinghe returned to the ward, and in Lili's surprised eyes, he told her with a smile that he came back to accompany her and his mother to have dinner together.

The girl's cheers and expectations gave Xu Xinghe a reason to continue smiling. She began to tell him about the children's books she read, and even made an exception to let herself hug her doll.

Therefore, Xu Xinghe had no choice but to quickly clear up his mood, and started eating and chatting with his sister like a real big brother.

The first night in Sooke City passed like this.

That night, Xu Xinghe was lying on the bed alone, and wanted to say something to Ling Changfeng.

However, I edited the email several times back and forth, but in the end it was never sent.

He wanted to say sorry to Ling Changfeng, but he vaguely realized that doing so would not help the matter, and might even push the matter to a more rigid situation.

I want to say thank you, but I also feel that these two words are too perfunctory.

In the end, he just fell asleep in silence.

It rained all night long.

The next day, Xu Xinghe woke up very early, raised his hand to check the time, it was only early six o'clock.

He stared blankly at the jumping mailbox sign, only to realize that Ling Changfeng had sent himself another email at around one o'clock in the morning yesterday.

Marshal Ling said in the email that he had encountered something temporarily and that he would not go back for a few days.

Xu Xinghe sat up and leaned against the head of the bed, feeling a little dazed.

Ling Changfeng... Was he deliberately avoiding himself

He carefully recalled the last conversation between the two before they parted, and he always felt that it didn't seem like the beginning of a cold war.

Things shouldn't have gotten this serious. Even if there is, Ling Changfeng is not someone who can use cold war to deal with problems.

Is there anything left unsaid between them

Xu Xinghe stared at the email for a while, then raised his hand and dialed Qin Yuan's video line.

Soon, Adjutant Qin appeared on the screen with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

"Sorry, did I disturb you to rest?" Xu Xinghe was a little surprised, "Isn't it noon in Xingfu City?"

Qin Yuan smiled lightly and waved his hands: "It's okay, what can I do for you?"

"I...we seem to have quarreled." Xu Xinghe cut to the chase, briefly described the unpleasant conversation that happened yesterday afternoon to Qin Yuan, and then said in a low voice: "He said that I don't want to believe his promise... In fact, I just Feel sorry."

While listening to what he said, Qin Yuan made himself a cup of black coffee and asked, "Why do you feel sorry?"

Xu Xinghe took a deep breath and replied: "My mother's matter...is my private matter, and I shouldn't bother him so much. I am very grateful for everything he has done, but I have nothing to give back, so...you know Yes, I always feel that I owe something, and I’m sorry.”

Qin Yuan sighed calmly, took a sip of coffee and said, "You don't need to worry about the so-called quarrel. Alpha's short-term possessiveness is causing trouble. It's actually not a big problem. But Xinghe, think about it differently. When you're willing to help someone, would you rather hear them say 'thank you, this helped me a lot' or 'sorry, I've troubled you'?"

Xu Xinghe was slightly taken aback.

Qin Yuan continued: "It is not a shameful thing to accept help from others. If you are grateful to him for this, go and thank him generously, but you don't need to feel sorry for this, and he is definitely not trying to What do you do for you in return. You are the one who is loved, Xinghe, human beings are instinctively willing to do something for their lover, you don’t need to think about this behavior too complicated, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble to both of you What's more, this matter is no trouble for him, if it is trouble, it is my trouble..." Qin Yuan said, and took another big sip of coffee, "When you have time, remember to treat me to a meal .”

Xu Xinghe: "..."

He fell silent for a moment.

Qin Yuan wanted to say something more, but the encrypted communication rang again.

Adjutant Qin's expression froze, he raised his head and said to Xu Xinghe: "Sorry, I still have something to do..."

Xu Xinghe came back to his senses: "Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I'll talk to him for the rest."

Qin Yuan paused slightly when he was about to press the communication button: "It will take a few days."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Xinghe to ask any further questions, he hung up the video call.

Xu Xinghe vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Something really happened to Ling Changfeng, right

Thinking of this, he turned over and got out of bed, quickly finished packing and walked out of the room, directly finding Colonel Lewis, the captain of Marshal Ling's personal guard.

"Take me to him."

For this request, Colonel Lewis looked embarrassed, and wanted to dissuade him, but he was a little powerless.

Xu Xinghe asked calmly: "Your marshal ordered you not to see me?"

Lewis shook his head quickly: "No, no, why do you think so..."

"Did he ever say that I'm not allowed to go to him?"

Lewis replied embarrassingly: "No, but..."

"Then take me to see him." Xu Xinghe said, "I'll take care of it if something happens. Since he never said he wouldn't see me, then I'll go find my legal spouse. Is there any problem?"

The place where Marshal Ling stayed was far away from the urban area, on the outskirts of Suke City.

When Colonel Lewis personally helped him open the car door, Xu Xinghe thought he had come to some kind of practice base.

"He lives here?" Xu Xinghe observed the large metal building in front of him, feeling more and more suspicious.

Colonel Lewis lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."

Xu Xinghe took a deep breath and followed Captain Lewis into the room.

He passed through three gates before arriving at the accommodation area.

When the last silver metal door opened, Xu Xinghe's body froze suddenly, and he even stopped breathing for a while.

Surrounded by the breath of the sea.

It was as if an overwhelming turmoil swept over him, making his hands and feet feel cold and weak, but at the same time, a tingling electric current flashed through his spine.

— It is the pheromone of Ling Changfeng.

"This is... what's going on?" Xu Xinghe's complexion was a little grim.

Captain Lewis bowed his head and replied: "That's what you feel, the Marshal didn't let us tell. I informed the Marshal that you are coming, and he didn't refuse, but are you sure you want to move on? Yes..."

Before the words fell, the people around him rushed towards the bedroom like a gust of wind.

Lewis: "..."

He wanted to follow, but he was afraid that he would be silenced if he saw something he shouldn't see.

Having been the captain of Marshal Ling's personal guard for more than ten years, he knew too well how dangerous, manic, and extremely aggressive Ling Changfeng was during the susceptible period.

Like a powerful, cold-blooded, but irrational super-destructive weapon.

In the past, if there was an emergency in the war, Ling Changfeng would ask the military doctor to over-inject himself with inhibitors in a powerful and hurtful way, so as to delay his susceptibility period.

When the battle situation is not urgent, he will spare three to five days of isolation to survive these difficult days alone.

Captain Lewis knew that yesterday afternoon, Ling Changfeng originally planned to delay the susceptibility period by injecting inhibitors.

But for some reason, the inhibitor didn't work.

He had to start self-isolation so as not to cause harm to those around him.

Thinking of this, Colonel Lewis suddenly recalled another incident.

Ling Changfeng's last susceptible period, which was triggered by Xu Xinghe's estrous period, seemed to pass unexpectedly.

That was the most stable susceptibility period that he had seen him go through in the past ten years following Ling Changfeng.

In those few days, Marshal Ling was not violent and irritable, on the contrary, he was as high-spirited as a contented lion...

why

Captain Lewis looked at the back of Xu Xinghe leaving, and suddenly thought—

Is it because you marked your beloved Omega

On the way to the bedroom, Xu Xinghe also thought that before coming to Pelpa Star, Qin Yuan taught them how to deal with someone who enters the estrous or susceptible period.

Timely injection of inhibitors is one aspect, but from Qin Yuan's mouth, he learned that Ling Changfeng's susceptibility period is longer than that of ordinary Alphas, and his symptoms are much more serious than ordinary Alphas.

A normal Alpha will enter a susceptibility period every two or three months. During this period, he will be irritable and irritable, more sensitive to Omega pheromones, and more thirsty. This symptom will last for about a week, and it will repeat itself.

However, Ling Changfeng will usher in a susceptibility period in about half a year, and the performance of the susceptibility period is also more intense.

He will become extremely dangerous, tyrannical, manic and irritable...

And very, very uncomfortable.

In particular, he has taken a large amount of inhibitors for a long time, and his body has developed drug resistance. It has been difficult to relieve these symptoms through pure drugs.

Xu Xinghe came to the door of the bedroom, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open.

Unlike the imagined violent storms and messy places, the bedroom was clean and tidy, and peaceful.

There was no big light in the room, only a small orange light on the bedside table, the color was warm, it was Xu Xinghe's favorite mode to turn on at night.

Ling Changfeng sat quietly by the bed, facing the floor-to-ceiling glass window, leaving only a back view of Xu Xinghe who pushed the door and entered.

The building materials of the room should be specially made, which not only blocks Ling Changfeng's pheromone smell to a certain extent, but also has an excellent sound insulation effect. People in the room can't hear the sound of rain falling outside the window at all.

This should have been a warm and peaceful rain watching scene.

However, there was an oppressive pheromone atmosphere in all directions, which made Xu Xinghe's body tense immediately, and even his breathing became a little heavy.

Especially, the moment he stepped in here, he clearly felt the sea-flavored pheromone in the air go wild.

But when he raised his head, Ling Changfeng still quietly sat on the bed with his back turned to him.

When I heard the sound, I only moved my ears slightly, and didn't even turn my head.

Xu Xinghe pinched his palm uneasily, walked forward, and stopped behind Ling Changfeng across a bed.

"How are you?"

Xu Xinghe knew that he was asking nonsense, but Ling Changfeng's back was so calm, and the pheromones were so chaotic, he was a little uncertain about the other party's situation for a while.

Ling Changfeng spoke, without turning around, without looking back, and without answering his words, he just asked, "Why are you here?"

There seemed to be nothing unusual about the voice, but it was deeper and hoarse than usual.

Seeing that he was still sane, Xu Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief, and asked back: "Why didn't you tell me about your susceptible period? Don't you know..."

As soon as the words came out, he suddenly stopped.

Of course Ling Changfeng knew.

He knew that Alpha's difficult susceptibility period could be soothed by Omega's pheromone.

He also knew that his pheromone was the best medicine for him.

He just didn't say it.

Probably also, can't speak.

Xu Xinghe was silent for a moment, walked around the big bed, and walked to Ling Changfeng's side.

He stretched out his hand and gently put it on the other's shoulder.

"I'll help you?"

Xu Xinghe's voice sounded in the dark and quiet room.

Ling Changfeng never turned his head to look at him, and Xu Xinghe couldn't see his eyes either.

So take this as a tacit consent.

He released a trace of sweet pheromone, and gently climbed up Ling Changfeng's body.

It is like a tree full of flowers stretching out soft flower branches, gently entwining people.

Ling Changfeng's body suddenly moved slightly.

The violence in the air seemed to have subsided somewhat.

Xu Xinghe heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that Ling Changfeng felt better.

But the next moment, there was a sudden pain in his wrist.

There was a moment of dizziness in front of him, and before he had time to resist, or even cry out in surprise, he was pushed down on the bed by a tremendous force.

And the surrounding pheromones rioted again, as if breaking through the last shackles of rationality, and became completely unscrupulous.

Xu Xinghe raised his eyes in a panic, and met those terrifying pair of different pupils.

He trembled, and then he saw clearly that Ling Changfeng's eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were almost stained red.

Marshal Ling, who was in the susceptible stage, bullied him and pressed him on the bed, his right hand firmly pressed Xu Xinghe's wrist.

Opening his mouth, his voice became hoarse than before: "What do you think is the reason why I won't let you come over?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his left hand again, ignoring Xu Xinghe's struggle, and lightly stroked the fragile and sensitive glands on the other's neck.

Those eyes that were almost dripping with blood were more frightening than ever.

Ling Changfeng bent down and whispered in his ear: "It's too late for you to repent now."
