When Fang Fengzhi woke up, there was only a woman in white clothes beside him.
Seeing him wake up, the woman hurried to his side. “Sir, just lie down.”
Fang Fengzhi raised his head to look at her, then looked around. “Min…” The problem with his throat seemed to be more serious. Just uttering a syllable felt like it was on fire.
“Mr. Min is out. He arranged for me to check your body.”
Out?
Where did he go?
The doctor saw Fang Fengzhi’s confusion but did not explain much. Instead, she put the medicine on the bedside table.
“Mr. Fang, there is nothing wrong with your body, you are just a little weak.”
“You need to take care of your throat for a few days.”
“I’ve prepared some medicine for you. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”
After the doctor left, Fang Fengzhi got up from the bed.
The last thing he remembered was Min Zhi whispering “I’m sorry” into his ear, and then everything went blank.
He didn’t know why Min Zhi became like that. Although he was afraid, he was actually more worried about whether there was something wrong with Min Zhi’s body.
He turned on his phone and saw that it was full of missed calls and unread messages from Fu Baiqi. He ignored them for the time being and clicked on Min Zhi’s chat interface first.
[Mr. Min, where are you?]
Min Zhi called less than a minute after he sent the message.
“You’re awake.”
Perhaps it was because of the phone call, but Fang Fengzhi found Min Zhi’s voice unusually deep. He barely managed to let out a low “en” from his throat, prompting a pause from the other end. “Sorry, I forgot you had a sore throat.”
After saying this, Fang Fengzhi did not reply again. The other party did not know what to say either. The two of them remained silent, but neither of them hung up the phone.
Because of the excessive accumulation of pheromones, it took too much energy to extract them from the body. There was also an IV drip on his hand to help him balance the pheromones. Now Min Zhi was exhausted, and his brain’s thinking ability was slow.
But he has never been someone who sits and waits for death. He does not want Fang Fengzhi to doubt his feelings for him.
“Yesterday, my pheromones went out of control…”
“My pheromones have been out of control since last month.”
“Sorry, that’s not what I meant.”
“But what I said is true.”
There was only a faint sound of breathing over there. Min Zhi’s hands had been clenched tightly without anyone noticing. Because he clenched too tightly, the blood vessels in the hand where the medicine was injected felt swollen and painful. He loosened his hands expressionlessly, but his voice became softer. “Fang Fengzhi, I am sincere.”
For a long time, he didn’t hear any answer from the other end. He knew Fang Fengzhi couldn’t speak now, but he still couldn’t control his anxiety and depression. He was worried that Fang Fengzhi would not forgive him for what he had done, that Fang Fengzhi was afraid of him, and that Fang Fengzhi would give up on him and return to his husband.
The excessive emotions caused the pheromones that he had not been able to control to erupt again. The red light in the isolation room lit up like an alarm, and he felt that his sanity was slowly burning.
Before the researcher rushed over, he heard the omega over there say “en” faintly.
The alarm flashed slowly for the last few times, and then there was no more movement.
In fact, Fang Fengzhi was shocked by Min Zhi’s words. It is not uncommon for pheromones to get out of control. Anyone whose pheromones get out of control, whether Alpha or Omega, will become a beast with only desires left, without any reason.
He let out a slow breath, and suddenly all the confusion seemed to make sense. It truly hadn’t been Min Zhi’s intention to hurt him. But at the same time, it meant Min Zhi’s words no longer valid, they had merely been the result of a pheromone-driven impulse.
Before he could feel sad, Min Zhi dispelled all his anxiety.
He said he was sincere.
He suddenly couldn’t wait to get to Min Zhi. He endured the discomfort in his throat and spoke, “I want to… see you…”
Min Zhi’s breath hitched, as if he had just heard a confession. His restless heart gradually settled, Fang Fengzhi had soothed him. The researchera rushed through the door wearing masks. Min Zhi looked at them expressionlessly but spoke gently to the other end of the phone, “Not now.”
“My pheromones haven’t been released yet, it could be dangerous.”
Fang Fengzhi’s eyes drooped, it was indeed not appropriate for them to meet now. “En…”
He heard Min Zhi say to him, “Wait for me to come back.”
After hanging up the phone with Min Zhi, Fang Fengzhi clicked on the message sent by Fu Baiqi, asking him when he would take the luggage away. Fang Fengzhi sighed. It seemed that Fu Baiqi had probably signed the agreement, but now he was full of Min Zhi’s smell, and there was no way he could meet Fu Baiqi.
He stared at the screen for a while and finally made up his mind to reply.
[Throw it away.]
Min Zhi told him to wait, but he didn’t come back even until his throat was almost healed.
They contacted each other every day, and Min Zhi sent messages and called frequently, just like checking up on him. He knew that Min Zhi was actually worried that he would go to Fu Baiqi, so he told him about the divorce agreement and told him that he would go to the registry office to get the divorce certificate in a while.
Min Zhi finally relaxed a little, at least the phone calls were not so frequent anymore.
But every time he ended the call, he still asked him to wait a little longer, but he didn’t give a specific time. Fang Fengzhi felt that he couldn’t wait any longer. Min Zhi’s voice sometimes sounded normal and sometimes sounded very weak. He was very worried. Min Zhi also marked him temporarily. Fang Fengzhi was very uneasy because the marked person was not around him for such a long time. His desire for pheromones reached a certain level.
He would sneak into Min Zhi’s room every night and bury himself in the bed filled with Min Zhi’s pheromones. This made him feel safe, and he could fall asleep quickly.
But this could not last long, Fang Fengzhi’s anxiety became stronger and stronger.
Until one day he called Min Zhi, and it took a while for him to answer the phone. The man’s voice was weak and powerless, and Fang Fengzhi panicked instantly, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Is there something wrong with the treatment?”
“It’s nothing.” Min Zhi spoke slowly, “I just didn’t sleep well, don’t worry.”
“I’ll be back soon.”
Fang Fengzhi didn’t believe it, and he couldn’t wait any longer.
Actually, Min Zhi was very tired the whole day. In order to meet Fang Fengzhi earlier, he asked the research facility to increase the intensity of purifying pheromones, but this kind of thing needs to be done slowly. If the intensity is increased, it will only make his body uncomfortable. He lay down on the bed, exhausted.
He slept for a while in a daze and was awakened by the sound of the door opening. He slowly opened his eyes, wondering what the people in the research facility might ask him to do again.
As soon as he looked over there, he paused.
He saw an omega standing behind the researcher at a glance.
It was Fang Fengzhi.
He had just done the purification, and although the pheromone concentration was high, it would not overflow uncontrollably for the time being. So he walked up to the omega and asked, “Why are you here?”
The researcher nodded to Min Zhi and turned away.
Fang Fengzhi did not answer him, “You have been here… these days?”
Min Zhi nodded.
Omega looked very sad. When he followed the researcher here just now, he had been looking at Min Zhi outside for a long time. Because there was a huge tempered glass in the room, he could see the whole picture inside clearly.
Except for the glass, there were walls, a white bed, and a lot of medical equipment placed next to it, like a secret room for dangerous patients.
He lowered his eyes. “Auntie told me you were here, so I came here.”
The researcher was surprised to find that he was carrying Min Zhi’s pheromones. He immediately knew his relationship with Min Zhi and brought him in.
In fact, Min Zhi has now marked Fang Fengzhi, and Fang Fengzhi’s pheromones are very effective in Min Zhi’s treatment, but Min Zhi would rather do a purification that makes his body uncomfortable than let Fang Fengzhi come over.
“Why don’t you let me come and help you?”
Min Zhi looked down at him. “You’ll be scared.”
The moment he opened his eyes and saw Fang Fengzhi, he thought he was out of his mind and hallucinating until he smelled the familiar scent of chamomile. He wanted to hug the omega tightly in his arms, but he didn’t do it because he had hurt him before.
He didn’t want Fang Fengzhi to be afraid of him.
But the omega stared at him closely for a while. In fact, he still felt scared when he thought about what happened that day, the out-of-control Min Zhi, and his reproductive cavity that seemed to be torn apart. But seeing Min Zhi like this, he still softened his heart. He admitted that he was always like a fool, willing to forgive the person he loved without reason.
He reached out and hugged Min Zhi.
The man paused.
“I’ll only forgive you once.” He heard the omega in his arms say sullenly.
His heart paused, as if it was filled with something and about to overflow.
“There won’t be a next time.” He said.
Fang Fengzhi just buried himself in his arms and didn’t want to come out even after a long time. Min Zhi was worried that he couldn’t breathe, so he pinched his neck and pulled him away. Seeing that Fang Fengzhi’s cheeks were red and he couldn’t speak clearly, he said, “You smell so good…” He probably didn’t even know he had said such a foolish thing.
Min Zhi couldn’t help but sigh. He didn’t give him pheromones after marking him, and now he was greedy.
He sat on the chair and pulled the omega to sit on his lap. He glanced at the surveillance camera beside him, turned his back, hid the omega tightly in his arms, then held Fang Fengzhi’s face and kissed his lips.
Fang Fengzhi immediately raised his head and thrust out his tongue.
Seeing that he did not resist, Min Zhi held his tongue.
In order to prevent Min Zhi from losing control, there were people watching in the monitoring room at all times. Although they knew that Min Zhi was being intimate with the omega who had just come over, they could only see the omega’s hands around Min Zhi’s waist and his legs shaking from time to time.
