Beta Chapter 19: Vomiting

Chapter 19: Vomiting

“Your fever is at 38.6 degrees, it’s mainly caused by inflammation. Rest for a while and stick to a bland diet,” said the doctor as he sat on the edge of the hotel bed, finishing Luo Songran’s basic examination and then beginning to draw blood from him.

Seeing the doctor start drawing blood, Luo Songran’s expression became somewhat puzzled. “So why do you need to draw my blood?”

“You’ve used omega sex pheromones, and as an A-class beta with a pheromone code, we need to encode and parallel you with President Duan’s alpha pheromones and conduct a pheromone compatibility check,” the doctor explained while drawing blood. His gaze flickered over the starry marks on this snowy arm, thinking to himself that President Duan didn’t even spare this arm. It seems he’s been holding back for too long.

It can only be said that it’s fortunate he’s an A-class beta, otherwise, how could he withstand President Duan’s alpha pheromones and physique?

“Encode and parallel?!” Luo Songran widened his eyes. How could he not know what encoding and paralleling meant? Every scent of pheromones recorded in the genetic database has its own specific pheromone code. When pheromone codes are parallel, it means these two individuals are in a mate relationship, which cannot be canceled once bound, and the effect is even better than a marriage certificate. “Wait a minute—”

He gestured to press down on the doctor’s blood-drawing needle.

Duan Yizhou quickly caught this unruly hand, furrowing his brows slightly. “The doctor is still drawing blood. You can’t be unruly. Behave and sit properly.”

Luo Songran felt a bit panicked. How could he forget that he had a pheromone code? He thought that getting the sex pheromone would satisfy his desires, but he forgot that he had pheromones. His body already had Duan Yizhou’s pheromones. Even if marking couldn’t be done, Duan Yizhou’s alpha pheromones could still be detected in his blood. Encoding and paralleling could still be established.

“Wait, can’t you skip the blood draw?” Luo Songran turned to Duan Yizhou with a pleading look, “We’ve just started being together, haven’t we?”

If his dad found out about this encoding and paralleling, he might break his legs!

“Now you’re scared?” Duan Yizhou naturally wouldn’t use this to threaten him. Drawing blood naturally serves other purposes, and encoding and paralleling can wait. But he was puzzled by one thing, “Do you know how sex pheromones are obtained? It’s necessary for both parties to register with one party’s pheromone code under the premise of confirming the mate relationship before obtaining the sex pheromones.”

Just by looking at Luo Songran’s expression, he knew this guy had taken the sex pheromone without registering. Even if the sex pheromones were from the Galaxy Group, it didn’t mean Luo Songran could get it easily. Moreover, considering how much Luo Songran meant to Duan Yizhou, he definitely wouldn’t let Luo Songran take the sex pheromone casually.

There’s only one possibility: Luo Songran got the sex pheromone from someone with connections.

Luo Songran was dumbfounded. He didn’t think about all this at that time, and how could he register his own pheromones just to get Duan Yizhou? It was just for fun. Already physically exhausted, now he was in a mess, mentally tired, and feeling a bit confused. He lowered his head, grabbed Duan Yizhou’s fingers, and didn’t say anything.

He really didn’t know what to say for a moment. He, who had always been fearless, suddenly felt a little scared because things seemed to have gotten out of hand and felt a bit out of control.

This appearance looked like being at a loss in Duan Yizhou’s eyes. Seeing him silent with his head down, Duan Yizhou grabbed his fingers and played with them. With a pouting expression, he looked pitiful. He was already feverish and looked pitiful. Now, he looked even more pitiful.

The doctor happened to finish drawing blood. He gestured to Duan Yizhou on how to proceed.

Duan Yizhou said, “Only do a pheromone compatibility check.”

The doctor was somewhat surprised. “Are you sure? Betas themselves cannot mark without glands. The alpha pheromones left on the body for two days will disappear with metabolism, and then it will be impossible to do the encoding arrangement.”

Unless it’s the next time they make love.

Luo Songran lifted his head abruptly. His dim eyes instantly brightened, and he looked at Duan Yizhou, clasping his hands together, he shook them towards him earnestly, pleading, “I don’t want to do the encoding arrangement, please.”

Duan Yizhou faced Luo Songran’s plea and fell silent. For a moment, he didn’t know what his mood was. It was instinctive to protect and not let this kid be so afraid. But from Luo Songran’s performance, there was an inexplicable subtlety. Since he used the sex pheromone, made such a big decision, why wouldn’t he want to do the encoding arrangement with him?

From a normal analysis, Luo Songran used the sex pheromone to make him like him. How could he miss the opportunity to bind together with the encoding arrangement?

“Brother, please~” Luo Songran grabbed the hem of Duan Yizhou’s suit and tugged lightly, blinking his eyes and starting to act spoiled. “Darling, I’m still young, just wait for me. Anyway, I’m already yours.”

The doctor silently turned away. President Duan is really fortunate.

The thing Duan Yizhou couldn’t resist the most was Luo Songran acting spoiled. This time was no exception. He attributed all the subtlety to Luo Songran’s young age and lack of appreciation. Seeing that the doctor was still there, he held Luo Songran’s hand and pulled him into his arms, lowering his voice, “There are outsiders here, no acting spoiled.”

Hearing Duan Yizhou’s words, Luo Songran knew that this man agreed not to do the encoding arrangement. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Great, he immediately smiled, his eyes curved, and he lifted his chin to kiss Duan Yizhou lightly, whispering softly, “Okay, I’ll just act spoiled to you in secret.”

The doctor was speechless. Heard it, heard it. This wave of dog food is causing indigestion. 

It seems like just a small episode, not affecting their relationship, at least for President Duan. After returning to the country, his little friend still stuck to him, especially when he was working in the group. There were constant messages on his phone, various coquettish words. Sometimes he couldn’t make it back to accompany Luo Songran at night, so they would video call. 

In the half month since they officially got together, they were like newlyweds deeply in love. They stuck together on weekends, and when their feelings intensified, they would show their affection a bit. Even when he was on a business trip, he would stick to him as much as possible. Sometimes he would complain about him always being on business trips and throwing tantrums, but he patiently comforted him.

Now he received another assignment for a week-long business trip, and unsurprisingly, this little brat got upset again.

At the entrance of Yan University, in the black car.

“On a business trip again, on a business trip again. How many times have you been on a business trip in the past half month?” Luo Songran sat in the passenger seat, appearing angry but actually suppressing a smile.

Rubbing the back of his head, Duan Yizhou helplessly coaxed, “This project needs frequent follow-ups recently. It’s my first project back at the family business, so it’s important to me.”

“Then am I not important?” Luo Songran thought, finally, tonight he could go to the bar and have some beer. He must call everyone. He had been pent up for half a month. This man seemed to keep an eye on him like a surveillance camera, never letting him out of his sight.

This made him somewhat at a loss, not knowing how to broach the subject. But fortunately, Duan Yizhou had been on business trips frequently lately, giving him some time to think about how to bring up the subject of breaking up.

“Of course, you’re important.”

Click. Luo Songran heard the sound of the seat belt being unbuckled. When he looked over, he found Duan Yizhou leaning towards him, his hand propped on the side of his chair. Half of his chest seemed to be able to encircle him completely.

Meeting Duan Yizhou’s gaze behind his gold-rimmed glasses, it was tender and affectionate, easy to get lost in, “This month alone is enough to make me realize that I can’t live without you. I really like you. I love you. When I’m on a business trip, I’m thinking of you all the time, wanting to hold you, kiss you, and keep you by my side, even putting you in my suit jacket. I really don’t want to leave you.”

The man’s affectionate words were like a carefully brewed honey jar, wanting to drown people in sweetness and unable to escape. The distance between them was brought to the closest. Duan Yizhou stared at the beautiful young man in his arms, the misty water under those amber eyes. This person was already haunting his dreams. “Baby, I start missing you from the moment I leave.”

Luo Songran was speechless. Heavens. This man already starts missing him from the moment he leaves, and what was he thinking at that moment? Going to a nightclub.

He really brought this upon himself.

Knowing the temper of this little brat, Duan Yizhou kissed his forehead and said, “I promise you, as soon as I’m done, I’ll come back immediately. When I’m not around, make sure to eat on time and don’t be picky, okay?”

Recently, he has been very picky about food. He didn’t know if he was deliberately making things difficult for him or if he really had no appetite.

“Okay.” Luo Songran lowered his gaze, his eyes filled with hidden joy. Hurry up and go. “Hug me before you go.”

The two of them cuddled in the car for a while longer.

Night fell, and the opening hours of various bars arrived.

“Ran Ran, you’ve been quite obedient lately.”

In the corner of the bar, Luo Songran found a comfortable spot to sit. Originally, he was full of energy when he came to the bar, wanting to have drinks with his roommates. Who knew he felt a bit sleepy now? But since he was already here, he had to pull himself together for some freedom.

“You all know, I’ve found quite a difficult alpha this time.” Luo Songran saw that his roommates were already drinking, so he lazily sat up and picked up the whiskey on the table. But just as he was about to drink, his face suddenly changed. A wave of nausea surged up from his stomach suddenly, and his face turned pale. Why did he feel like throwing up so often lately?

The bar environment was dim, and no one noticed Luo Songran’s anomaly.

“You’re not playing around, are you? Are you looking for a boyfriend for yourself? We’ve never seen you so serious.” Roommate A saw Luo Songran holding the glass and staring blankly, thinking he hit the mark. He laughed, “So did you succeed?”

Roommate B also joked, “Definitely. Our Ran Ran is so good-looking, who wouldn’t like him? How could the person Ran Ran wants not give in?”

Roommate C nodded in agreement, “I caught a glimpse from afar. That man is tall, with a good figure, and looks like a business tycoon. Our Ran Ran looks a bit slim standing next to him, but it’s okay. Our Ran Ran is good at hiding his strength in a fight, right?”

Just as they were getting into it, Luo Songran suddenly stood up. “I’m going to the bathroom.”

Roommates: “?” Why does it feel like the mood isn’t too high tonight? It was so lively this afternoon. 

In the beta’s restroom, Luo Songran had just walked in when he heard a conversation, “Lately, my appetite hasn’t been good. I often feel nauseous. The things I used to like to eat, I don’t like anymore, and the things I didn’t like, I suddenly want to eat. I just took a pregnancy test, honey, I’m pregnant. What should I do…”

Luo Songran’s expression froze, and he stood still.

1. Poor appetite
2. Nausea
3. Suddenly dislikes foods he used to like
4. Suddenly likes foods he didn’t like before

Why did this sound so similar to his recent situation…
