Chapter 14: CH 15

Sophia’s eyes fell in a momentary trance. From surprise to puzzlement to sadness, they finally returned to calm. She said softly, “If you want to know the answer to this kind of thing, shouldn’t you ask him directly?”

Ling Changfeng seemed to expect such a response. He didn’t ask any further questions, and nodded lightly: “I know, I will wait for a suitable time to ask him.”

He got up and walked to the second floor: “He is still resting, you should go back first.”

“Please wait a moment.” Sophia stopped him.

Ling Changfeng turned around. His dual-colored pupils carried a natural sense of oppression that made people dare not look him in the eyes directly.

Sophia lowered her head and smiled bitterly: “Actually, it’s easy to understand… Xinghe has no sense of security in marriage. If he becomes pregnant during the protection period, the custody of the child after a divorce will naturally be a big problem. It’s no problem if you’re an ordinary person, because even if it goes to court, the child will still be assigned to him in the end. But you are the Marshal of the Alliance, and he can’t compete, so how can he feel at ease?”

Ling Changfeng looked at her and was silent for a while.

He knew that what she said was the truth, but it still felt like there was something more.

“As you said, I watched Xinghe grow up.” Sophia’s light blue eyes seemed to be shining. “Can I take the liberty to ask, why do you want to know this answer? Or, why does it matter to you why he wants custody of the child?”

“It doesn’t matter. No matter what his reasons are, I have already promised him.” Ling Changfeng replied. “What’s more, this is all based on the premise that we will divorce after the child is born.”

Sophia suddenly raised her head and looked at him in surprise.

Marshal Ling’s implication is… they won’t divorce in a year?

“I’m just a little curious, he obviously still looks like a child.” Ling Changfeng said calmly, “If you think I’ll offend him by asking this, you don’t have to answer me.”

Sophia cast her pale blue eyes out of the window. After a long silence, she slowly opened her mouth and said: “Xinghe… is different from other children. He was not sent here because he had no father or mother. He was sent here by his father himself.”

Ling Changfeng frowned slightly.

Sophia continued: “Under the matching marriage system, there will always be some unwilling parents forced to pair up. But they are not forced to raise the children. If both husband and wife give up custody of the children, sending the child to a local welfare institution within six months of birth is not considered abandonment.”

Ling Changfeng asked, “Does his mother not want him?”

Sophia shook her head: “Xinghe was sent to welfare when he was just four months old. At the time, his father was the sole guardian, which meant his mother had already given up custody. I heard at the time that his father was a small-time businessman, and gave his mother a lot of money to leave after his birth. But within a few months, he found a new partner, who was very concerned that he had a child, so he sent the child to the orphanage… Of course, there is no way to verify these rumors. But whether they are true or false, these words eventually reached Xinghe’s ears.”

One gold and one blue eyes flashed with complex emotions. “When he was at the orphanage, how was he?”

Sophia’s eyes showed a hint of sadness: “Xinghe is very good. He is smart, stubborn, and strong. These are all good qualities in alpha, but he is an omega… You know, most people like omegas as docile and soft as dodder flowers. Xinghe is regarded as an outlier in their eyes.”

Sophia took a deep breath and continued: “I transferred to their class when Xinghe was in second grade. At that time, I was just a lecturer. Before I transferred, I heard that there was a thorn in the class with a bad temper. A very bad omega. But the first day I saw Xinghe, I found that he was thin and small, with wounds on his face and obvious bruises on his arms.”

Ling Changfeng closed his eyes.

Sophia stood on the spot, hesitating to speak, and finally did not say any more.

“I’ll leave the medicine here. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.

“By the way, there is one more thing…” Before leaving, Sophia thought of something and turned around. “Xinghe may say he’s okay. But he wouldn’t have asked me to bring medicine if his fever wasn’t so bad.”

She left after leaving such a sentence.

Ling Changfeng was slightly startled, then suddenly turned around and walked back to Xu Xinghe’s room.

Xu Xinghe was still sleeping, but his cheeks were abnormally red.

Ling Changfeng went around to the bed and reached out to his forehead – it was really hot.

“David, take his temperature.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the electronic smartphone on Ling Changfeng’s left wrist lit up.

“Di-“

“39.1℃1102.3 F, high fever, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately.”

Ling Changfeng’s eyelids jumped.

This guy… this is also called okay?!

“Wake up.” Ling Changfeng patted Xu Xinghe’s exposed head. “Get up and follow me to the hospital.”

His movements and voices were soft, but his tone brooked no refusal.

Xu Xinghe who finally fell asleep was woken up again.

However, he was dizzy and had no energy to fight back. He could only play dead.

Ling Changfeng glanced at him, pressed the earphone and dialed his secretary. “Contact the Third Hospital of the Military Department to arrange a ward, I have a patient number here, high fever… An ambulance is not needed, I will bring him over in a bit.”

Hearing those arrangements made for him, Xu Xinghe grew angrier. Burying his head in the pillow, he said weakly: “Not going.”

Ling Changfeng hung up the phone and looked down at him. “Are you going to change your clothes?”

Xu Xinghe: “…”

This person is so annoying!

Talking made his throat hurt, so he simply stopped talking and expressed his refusal with practical actions.

Ling Changfeng waited for a while, but seeing no movement from Xu Xinghe, he retrieved his coat. Turning around, he briskly removed the blanket on Xu Xinghe’s body, wrapped the little patient who was unable to resist in his jacket, picking him up, and left.

As the saying goes, the whole process was smooth and unobstructed. Xu Xinghe was taken out of the bed before he could react.

“Ling Changfeng, let me go!!” Xu Xinghe never thought that the first time he called Grand Marshal Ling’s name directly would be on such an occasion.

He finally had the heart to scold people. Xu Xinghe’s body was like a fierce little beast, struggling frantically, twisting around in midair.

“Don’t move.” Ling Changfeng glanced at the restless little hedgehog in his arms, and said solemnly, “Be careful I drop you.”

Actually, given Marshal Ling’s strength, he could carry three Xu Xinghe’s easily.

But now, firstly, his arm was injured a bit, and secondly…

He found that when Xu Xinghe was agitated, the pheromones on his body would become stronger.

A sweet and fragrant fragrance swept through.

It was distracting.

Ling Changfeng tightened his embrace, enclosing the person even tighter.

After Xu Xinghe heard his words, he finally stopped struggling.

Although he hated having things arranged for him at an emotional level, rationality told him he should go to the hospital.

“You let me down, I’ll go by myself.” Xu Xinghe said hoarsely.

Ling Changfeng looked down at him.

This little hedgehog is really strong, and stubbornly insistent.

However…

He put him down.

But his eyes have been firmly locked on Xu Xinghe.

If his pheromone could be visualized, Ling Changfeng thought…

It should be a bud that blooms amidst withering.

The moment the flower blooms, it will be unbelievably beautiful.

Marshal Ling followed Xu Xinghe without making a sound, keeping his eyes on as he walked downstairs with the help of the staircase.

There were three military vehicles parked in the yard, and there seemed to be a few more outside the yard. Xu Xinghe didn’t know why Ling Changfeng had to bring such a large entourage with him. He was just about to ask himself which car to get into when he saw Ling Changfeng walk to one of the cars and open the rear door.

“Come up and lie down for a while.”

Everyone’s eyes focused on the two of them.

The members of the escort secretly exclaimed: “I usually only see others pulling the door for the marshal. This is the first time I see the marshal opening the door for others!”

Colonel Lewis, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, thought: “Is there enough space in the back seat? Where will the marshal sit? Will he get in another car?”

Major General Qin Yuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, thought even more. He instantly imagined up 18 postures2sex positions for two people to squeeze the back seat together, thinking with relief that after so many years, this guy Changfeng finally came to his senses.

But before he could put away the relieved smile on his face, he saw Ling Changfeng walk to the co-pilot side and knock on his window: “You come down.”

Qin Yuan: “Ah?”

Using his best face, he winked at Ling Changfeng and complained: “Boss, you’re not going to take the opportunity to fall in love? You should squeeze the back seat! Let him rest on your lap!!”

Unfortunately, Ling Changfeng completely ignored his wink. Seeing him not moving, his expression began to show a hint of impatience.

Qin Yuan had to grit his teeth and say, “Subordinate has something to report later, so I’d better take a car with you.”

Ling Changfeng frowned, knowing that he would not work in front of Xu Xinghe, but in the end he didn’t pursue it. “Then you go to the driver’s seat.”

Qin Yuan: “…”

Colonel Lewis gave up the driver’s seat with “winking” when he heard the words, turned and walked towards the car behind.

Qin Yuan had to bite the bullet and change seats.

“Go to the Third Hospital of the Military Department.”

The military vehicles passed through the shadows of the building and sped quickly on the empty track.

The car was silent. Qin Yuan endured it for a long time, and finally couldn’t help but whisper: “Boss, it’s not me, but you have no future in falling in love like this.”

Eyes closed, Ling Changfeng interrupted him without batting an eyelid. “Shut up.”

“It’s alright, he fell asleep.” Qin Yuan pointed to the back seat, and judged Xu Xinghe’s current state from the sound of his breathing.

Distressed, he continued to say, “The chemical reaction between an alpha and omega relies on prolonged contact…”

Ling Changfeng opened his eyes and turned his unfriendly gaze to the driver. “You disturbed him.”

Qin Yuan: “…”

Gotta love that back and forth between LCF and QY.
