Bai Tang lacked the guts to turn off the lights and go to bed. He snuggled up with Heitang in bed and tried to maintain some sense of security by hiding his hands and feet beneath the covers.
The answer he came up with was to sleep with Heitang in his arms, although it didn’t seem like the most effective option. Bai Tang remained still, and his eyes remained wide open until he was too drowsy to keep them opened. They eventually drooped, and a few seconds later, he was dozing off. But he hadn’t quite fallen asleep when Heitang stirred, jolting him awake.
A number of times throughout the night, he had woken up and then lost consciousness again, each time feeling incredibly drowsy but unable to get back to sleep. The expression of annoyance on Bai Tang’s face reflected his impending nervous meltdown. He looked at the time, his eyes dry and tired . It was nearly 1 am, and the alpha still hadn’t returned.
Forget it. As soon as Bai Tang woke up again, he walked to his study and opened his schoolwork. He reasoned, he couldn’t sleep anyhow, so why not just study?
——just until Jiang Yunshu comes home.
The study’s window overlooked the garden’s iron gate. He opened the curtains and looked out the window from time to time. Bai Tang was laying his bare feet on top of Heitang, who was sleeping under the desk with its belly up. After the third time his head slammed onto the desk, the two flashing lights outside the window caught his attention. He straightened himself and leaned out the window to look down. It was Jiang Yunshu’s car!
He put on his slippers and ran out, followed by Heitang. During the quiet night, the house became spirited with noise.
Bai Tang shook off his fatigue and immediately ran at breakneck speed.
He jumped down the last two steps of the staircase after hearing the keys jingle in the yard. The door was opened from the outside, and when he saw Jiang Yunshu’s condition, he immediately came to a halt.
The alpha appeared to be inebriated. His brows were frowned, and his eyes were half-closed in discomfort. Someone was holding him up, his tie was a bit crooked, and most significantly, a giant red allergy patch extended from the side of his face to the side of his neck and vanished beneath his shirt.
His body was perfumed with booze and wintry pheromones.
Bai Tang yelled, “Dr. Jiang!”
Hearing his own name caused Jiang Yunshu to turn his head ever-so-slightly, and upon noticing Bai Tang standing in front of him dressed in his pyjamas, his very first thought was to check the time. His brow furrowed even more. “Why aren’t you sleeping?”
When Bai Tang had scented Jiang Yunsu’s pheromone, it was quite icy. When it’s particularly thick, it makes him feel as though he’s fallen into a bottomless pit of ice cold water; the first time he breathed it in, the air was so cold it stabbed his nose, then his throat, and finally his trachea, causing him to scream for air. However, when this pheromone was on Jiang Yunshu’s body, Bai Tang felt as if he were in an iceberg and snowfield, with glaciers as pristine as clouds all around and the cleanliness and coolness of the cold spring lingering on the tip of his nose.
A few days ago, following Zhou Zhaoyu’s instructions, they had done pheromone desensitisation, but this therapy quickly passed. After all, Bai Tang’s nausea when he smelled Jiang Yunsu’s pheromone was entirely psychological – he hated Jiang Yunsu so much that the same went with his smell.
Once the person within changed, the root cause was solved.

When Bai Tang drew back, a hand was swiftly placed on his face. Everything went black, he couldn’t see, and the heat in front of his eyes was mildly warm. He froze for a second before realising the alpha had covered his eyes with his palm. Light filtered through between his fingertips.
The pheromones that surrounded him intensified. Jiang Yunshu looked at the substitute driver expressionlessly.
The substitute driver hastily apologised, dropped the car keys, and fled the scene without pausing, closing the door behind him.
Jiang Yunshu carefully returned his gaze to Bai Tang, whose eyes were still blocked by him.
The omega only made it to his chin. He had a long, lean neck, which was accentuated when he held his head high. His pallid face was slender. Bai Tang’s palm covered most of his face, with only his moist lips slightly parted.
The house was strangely quiet. The tips of Bai Tang’s ears were already flushed. The heat on his face was gradually equaling, if not exceeding, the temperature of the alpha’s palm. The sound of his racing heart was pounding on his eardrums, and he felt as though he had been waiting for an eternity, but Jiang Yunshu’s hand had no plans to let go. He blinked gingerly, wondering whether the alpha had fallen asleep while standing.
“Dr. Jiang?” Bai Tang stretched out his hand and pushed the alpha’s arm. “You can let go, your allergies…”
His words stopped abruptly.
A startling pressure against Bai Tang’s nape drew his attention. Without his sight, his other senses were heightened by a factor of ten or more, and his brain sent out a warning signal. A chill ran down his spine, goose bumps appeared; his body was instantaneously glued to the alpha’s chest. “Dr. Jiang?” he grumbled in panic.
Immediately afterwards, he heard Jiang Yunshu’s unique tone ringing in his ears, “Hm, it’s me. Did you change your shower gel?”
“H-Huh?” Bai Tang almost shrank into the alpha’s arms, his eyes still covered. He whispered, “Yes, I changed it…”
The alpha seemed to lean over to sniff again, and said in a low voice, “This one smells good. The previous one stinked a lot.”
The fluttering touch made Bai Tang numb all over, and the right side of his body became boneless. In his haze, he wanted to protest, how can it stink? It was the aroma of lilies… But he quickly remembered something else. It was no coincidence he spotted Jiang Yunshu buy soap one time; he didn’t like the fragrance of their shower gel.
“I-I know.” Bai Tang struggled to sit up, pushing the alpha. “Let go of me first…”
Jiang Yunshu let out a dull “oh”. He took back his hand and apologised, “Sorry, I forgot.”
Finally liberated, Bai Tang was able to reclaim his independence. He stepped out of the alpha’s grip. Surprisingly, his heart stopped beating. He grew frightened again when he saw the alpha’s allergy-filled face. He quickly scampered to the TV cabinet’s base in search of the medicine kit. “Don’t stress out too much over it! By the way, did you eat mango, Dr. Jiang?”
“Hmm.” Jiang Yunshu replied truthfully, “I did, 6 pieces.”
Bai Tang rummaged in the medicine kit, his fingers trembling with nervousness. Now he felt remorse and self-blame. He was worried before that if he had told Jiang Yunshu he was allergic to mango, he would hate him because Jiang Yunshu would think he let him eat mango the last time on purpose to have his allergies flare up.
Jiang Yunshu looked at the omega’s tightly pursed lips as if he knew what he was thinking, and said, “I know this body is allergic to mangoes, it has nothing to do with you.”
The movements of Bai Tang’s hands suddenly stopped, and he stared at the alpha’s upright face wordlessly. After a while, he shouted angrily, “But you still ate it!”
Jiang Yunshu nodded, “Mhm, I’m drunk.”
The omega looked very angry, so he added, “It’s okay. I’m a doctor. I’ve controlled the dosage well. Nothing will happen except skin allergies.”
Bai Tang was coughing violently. He wanted to sadistically poke the alpha’s forehead, but even after his finger already touched it, he still put it down. It wasn’t that he lacked the courage to take the risk; rather, he was afraid of the backlash if he did.
Forget that; the most important thing right now is to get him to take the medication. He took a deep breath and rose to assist the alpha in untying his tie.
As if reading his mind, Jiang Yunshu lifted his hand to stop him. He said, “No, I have to take a bath before you can apply the medicine.”
“I said no such thing!” Bai Tang rejected him instinctively and questioned again, “Can you take a bath by yourself?”
Jiang Yunshu, to his chagrin, was uninterested in what he was saying. Instead, he seized his wrist and held it in front of him, saying quietly, “Why are you still so skinny?”
Bai Tang’s anxiety was completely extinguished by this sentence. Oddly enough, he calmed down, and asked again, “Dr. Jiang, can you take a bath by yourself? Or should I help…”
Jiang Yunshu said as he walked towards the stairs. “I can wash by myself, don’t worry.”
Seeing that he could still walk in a straight line, Bai Tang felt relieved and followed behind to watch the alpha take off his suit coat and hang it outside the door in an orderly manner, accurately opened the second wardrobe and took out clean clothes, and walked in with steady steps in the bathroom.
He took advantage of this time and quickly went down to the kitchen and skillfully cooked a bowl of hangover soup. After turning the fire in low heat, he ran upstairs and waited outside the bathroom door, for fear that the alpha would fall or pass out.
Fortunately, nothing happened. About ten minutes later, Jiang Yunshu came out in neat pyjamas. The top button was even carefully buttoned up.
It’s just that when Bai Tang peaked inside, he was surprised by the mess in the bathroom. Usually, the alpha would clean up after taking a bath; the mirror, floor and shelves would be spotless. But now, there’s water all over the floor, and a few lumps of bubble residue still stuck to the wall.
Bai Tang didn’t care much about it though. Before the hangover soup could cool, he went down to get it, and upon entering the room, he observed Jiang Yunshu scratching his face. His neck and collarbone were redder than usual, and the top regions of his skin were scratched, resulting in little blood spots.
“Don’t scratch it!” Bai Tang snatched the alpha’s hand, made him carry the bowl, and reached for the towel beside him to wipe his soaking hair. He had a lot on his plate at the moment. “Be patient for now, okay? Take the soup tonight or you’ll have a headache and stomachache in the morning.”
Fortunately, the drunk Jiang Yunshu wouldn’t go crazy, otherwise Bai Tang, a powerless omega, wouldn’t know how to force a strong alpha to drink hangover soup.
But it didn’t take long for the alpha to start scratching again, and when Bai Tang grabbed his hand once again, he expressionlessly spit out a word, “It’s itchy.”
“Got it, let’s apply some medicine.” Bai Tang clamped the alpha’s bangs with a clip. He squatted halfway in front of Jiang Yunshu, and he hesitated a bit when he touched the alpha’s collar with his fingertips. Although objectively speaking, he had seen this body countless times, subconsciously, he now thinks of this as Jiang Yunshu’s body.
Bai Tang didn’t have the courage to look into the alpha’s eyes. His eyelashes fluttered, his lips were unconsciously pursed red, and he pretended to concentrate on unbuttoning Jiang Yunshu’s clothes, which gradually revealed his strong body.
Jiang Yunshu just lowered his gaze and watched him quietly.
After undressing, Bai Tang realised later that when he helped Jiang Yunshu undress by unbuttoning his clothes, it looked so ambiguous! When the alpha could just take it off at once by raising it over his head!
The skin allergies covered almost half of his upper body, including his collarbone, chest, waist and nape. Seeing this dreadful image, Bai Tang’s heart ached. But when he looked at the alpha’s waistband, he found himself in a difficult situation. It would take… A gorgeous fluttering blush quickly stained his cheeks. He gulped, mentally prepared himself, and tentatively said, “Dr. Jiang, why don’t you take it off…”
Jiang Yunshu interrupted leisurely, “There’s no skin allergies in my lower body.”
Ten seconds of silence.
Bai Tang’s pupils dilated. He always had the impression that the alpha was saying these things on purpose, so he just stood there hopelessly mortified. For five seconds, he was trapped in a bashful predicament! Indignant, he looked up into Jiang Yunshu’s eyes.
Jiang Yunshu gazed at him.
Bai Tang was beaten in barely 3 seconds. He abruptly lowered his head and violently shook the calamine lotion up and down, as if to cover his face. He had no idea that his toes were curled up in embarrassment.
The fire in his head was so intense that he imagined he looked like a cooked shrimp just then, with his face as red as a boiled shrimp’s gills. Especially the rims of his eyes and the tip of his nose. When he was shy, these two parts seemed to be filled with blood.
Jiang Yunshu didn’t think it was a big deal. He studied Bai Tang’s ear bud for a second before reaching out and touching the earlobe with his fingers. “How come it’s so red?”
Bai Tang exhaled a huff. The alpha’s body felt fully at ease against his. He really couldn’t stand Jiang Yunshu like this, so he closed his eyes and called loudly, “Dr. Jiang! D-Don’t drink anymore!”

I have not read the chapter yet. Just wanted to comment first. I hope you are fine and so glad to see you back. Was wondering about you from time to time. Take care!
I’m so happy that Bai Tang can now shout at Dr. Jiang! That’s it, darling! You deserve to be mad and to express yourself more! There’s also Jiang Yunshu who would never reprimand you for scolding him!
