The meeting adjourned.
Bai Tang moved forward, the alpha in his arms, an unmistakable grin on his face. With glowing eyes, he glanced at the alpha, gesticulating with both hands and saying something.
Jiang Yunshu gave the omega a pinch on the arm. It was a touch squishy. He listened silently, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, but in his heart he overturned what he had done and thought previously. The realisation that Bai Tang didn’t want to be his domestic canary guarded by him finally dawned on him today, but he didn’t bother to ask Bai Tang’s viewpoint and instead assumed that he had been guarding Bai Tang adequately up until this point.
Only Bai Tang has a decent temper and will not get mad at him or blame him behind his back. Instead, he spoke to him in a cordial tone.
Bai Tang’s left wrist stitches could be removed, and the cut on the back of his right hand has scabbed. Although it was still wrapped with gauze, it was recuperating well.
The omega sounded depressed. “Dr. Jiang, will there be a scar?”
Jiang Yunshu replied genuinely, “There probably will be.”
Bai Tang lowered an eyebrow and stared at his hands, remaining silent.
“Let’s go buy some scar cream.” Jiang Yunshu gently massaged the omega’s hand with his fingertips. “New scars can still heal.”
“What about the old scars?” Bai Tang inquired glumly.
Jiang Yunshu kissed the back of the omega’s hand, and answered the wrong question, “Bai Tang, you look good.”
Bai Tang glanced, feeling slightly better.
Seeing that he still didn’t speak, Jiang Yunshu kissed him again, expressing his true thoughts unskillfully, “These scars look good on you.”
Being praised by the person he likes like this, no matter how bad his mood was, the omega pursed his lips and smiled. “When did your mouth become so sweet, Dr. Jiang?”
Jiang Yunshu moved his eyes to the flowers and plants on the side of the road. “I’m just telling the truth.”
Bai Tang seemed to think of something, the end of his eyes was stained red bit by bit, his toes in white socks curled up. He kept biting his inner cheeks, looking very tangled.
Jiang Yunshu, “What’s wrong?”
He kept licking his dry lips, and his face was a complicated mix of nervousness, embarrassment, and eagerness. Then, with his eyes closed, his feet raised, and his fingers pressed down, Bai Tang gestured for the alpha to turn his head to the side.
Jiang Yunshu wasn’t sure why, so he bowed slightly and brought his ears closer together.
“Let’s go back. Let me have a good taste,” The omega’s cheeks reddened from embarrassment, but he still had to endure the shame and persevere to finish the domineering CEO’s remarks, “I want to see if that mouth is really that sweet…”
It’s a type of behaviour where he had complete trust in an alpha thinking one wou;dn’t really do anything to him.
If other alphas heard it, pheromones would burst out and directly blow up the measuring device.
Jiang Yunshu’s lip line was pressed immediately, and he warned in a low voice, “Bai Tang.”

“I haven’t seen you for four days,” Shen Ting said with a smile, “How have you been these past few days?”
Jiang Yunshu said, “Very good.”

He wanted to cover his face, but he had already let the alpha, the culprit, slap cold water on his face. So why the heck not!
Shen Ting didn’t reveal the truth and only said softly, “Then let’s start.”
Today is the third session of psychotherapy.
Compared with the first gaffe, Jiang Yunshu has been able to communicate with Shen Ting calmly. Although he would occasionally be agitated, he usually calms down quickly.
There are no quick fixes or ways to avoid feeling melancholy.
Many victims could not help but feel guilty for all that has been lost during treatment—the illusion of a lovely family, the loss of innocence, love, and childhood, the happiness and contentment that should have been there.
This grief has the potential to be overwhelming for the patient.
Jiang Yunshu didn’t say a word. His hand was tightly held by his omega, as if he was immersed in this kind of sadness.
Fortunately, Shen Ting has enough confidence and experience to believe that she can lead the alpha in front of her through this level. She was just about to speak——
“However, I would like to thank them now,” Jiang Yunshu smiled unexpectedly, “If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t be able to meet my lover.”
Shen Ting didn’t know that Jiang Yunshu had travelled here from a different world. She was a little surprised. This was the fastest person she had ever seen to get out of this state in her 13 years of career.
She involuntarily looked at the omega, who had red eyes. This young omega also seemed a little surprised when he heard what he said. He was staring at his alpha without blinking, and a teardrop fell from his lower eyelid.
Shen Ting smiled. “That’s good. Everything has two sides.”
After a duration of two hours, the treatment was completed.
Jiang Yunshu stood up calmly and shook Shen Ting’s hand, saying, “Thank you, Dr. Shen, for your hard work.”
“You’re welcome,” Shen Ting answered, smiling.”It’s your omega who needs some comfort.”
Jiang Yunshu turned around and noticed Bai Tang, who was sitting in the corner of the couch with his back turned to them and wiping his tears away pitifully.
Skillfully leaving the patient in the treatment room, Shen Ting returned to the office first.
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Yunshu grasped on the omega’s arm, turning Bai Tang around. “Why are you crying?” The tears that Bai Tang shed during his treatment were likely shed in silence so as not to disturb them. He didn’t even notice his omega was sobbing.
“I don’t want to cry, but I can’t stop myself… I just think,” Bai Tang sniffed and said aggrievedly, “How could they treat you like this. I’m so angry…”
Since the omega appears so pale, his bloodshot eyes stand out starkly. Jiang Yunshu remained silent for a moment before wrapping his arms around Bai Tang.
He clearly has more extremist parents than he does. Even if he has seen much more tragedy and pain in his life than he has, why is this omega… so sweet and innocent?
Jiang Yunshu was unsure of his mood. He was saddened that Bai Tang cried for him, but he was also delighted that Bai Tang was sad for him. He considered “how about he speak more miserably next time” for a brief minute.
For a brief minute, he considered “how about he speak more miserably next time?”
They had only just arrived in the hospital lobby when they collided with Lin Baizhou, who was about to leave work.
Jiang Yunshu, “Dr. Lin, do you want to have dinner together?”
Lin Baizhou refused, saying, “Nah. I’ll go get some peach soda.”
Jiang Yunshu didn’t continue to invite him, but nodded and said, “Okay, see you next time.”
Lin Baizhou’s favourite peach soda was produced by an old brand. He’s been drinking it since he was a child and like it a lot, but it could be owing to poor sales, as no supermarkets have restocked it in nearly eight years.
After nearly 30 minutes of driving, he came across a rundown tiny shop. Lin Baizhou scoured the entire 2nd district and discovered that this was the only place that still sold the peach soda.
The little shop’s owner knew him well. After all, he had been a customer for so many years. Lin Baizhou walked to the corner and saw that there were two rows of peach soda left. He asked, “Boss, why did you buy so much this time?”
The boss is an old man who is almost 60 years old. He said loudly with an accent, “You see, I usually only buy three boxes because of the other boy. He hasn’t come to buy it for a long time. The last time was when you two fought for the last bottle!”
Lin Baizhou froze in place, his face full of surprise. “Huh?”
The boss muttered in a low voice, “If you two hadn’t been buying it, I would have stopped buying it a long time ago. I wouldn’t make money! No one buys it except you two, no one!”

After the transcript of the interrogation ended, Jiang Ruanjia seemed to have finally realised that she was free.
Facing the reaction from the outside world, she began to respond. When Caramel flicked her tail to rub against her, she would lower her head and scratch Caramel’s chin.
Caramel, the name of that big lazy cat.
After the three of them finished their meal, Jiang Ruanjia stood up a little slowly, wanting to clean up the dishes.
Just as Jiang Yunshu was about to stop him, he was blocked by a hand. Bai Tang smiled at Jiang Ruanjia. “We’ll be troubling auntie!”
Jiang Ruanjia paused, nodded, and continued to do what he was doing.
Bai Tang pulled the alpha into the garden. “The senior said that it might be better to let auntie do some things.”
Jiang Yunshu used his feet to push away Heitang who kept nudging the omega, and said, “Okay.”
“Ah, that’s right!” Bai Tang ran into the house suddenly, and after a while, he came out with an iron pot and a few books. He put the scrap iron pot on the gravel road, and then put four books into the iron pot.
Jiang Yunshu took a closer look. It was his notebook, the planner that he started to use when he came to this world. It was now the fourth notebook’s schedule.
Bai Tang ran back and asked, “Dr. Jiang, I want to burn them, can I?”
Jiang Yunshu tilted his head, staring at the notebook in the middle of the garden for a long time.
Bai Tang was a little nervous, thinking he was unwilling, and was about to say, “Then let’s not burn it, let’s take our time”, when the alpha spoke.
“Okay,” Jiang Yunshu said, “Burn it.”
Bai Tang looked at him worriedly. “Is it really okay?”
“Why not?” Jiang Yunshu looked down at the omega and smiled. “It’s not something important.”
Bai Tang rose up and kissed the corner of the alpha’s mouth as a reward. “Dr. Jiang is so great.”
Jiang Yunshu was stunned for a moment, feeling that the compliment came inexplicably and somewhat out of place. The omega had already run away before he could even process it.
He watched Bai Tang squat next to the iron pot, tearing off a blank piece of paper, igniting it with a lighter, and then throwing it on top of the notebook.
A flash of fire appeared in Jiang Yunshu’s pupils, and in the firelight. Bai Tang trotted towards him with a smile on his face. The distance between the two gradually decreased. “Dr. Jiang! You have to watch carefully!”
Jiang Yunshu reached out, took the omega’s hand and put it in his pocket. He was tall and straight, standing at the door, watching the notebook being burned little by little by the fire.
Everything looked black and white, as if there were no way out, and instead of stars, there were blazing flames beating in their eyes.
Not only was the notebook destroyed, but so were the chains and burdens that had dragged on him for 32 years. He simply felt relieved and at ease.
Bai Tang sat quietly as well, but a memory from when he was still living in the old house, two years prior, came before his eyes: Jiang Yunshu lifting the heavy box of tools and throwing them into the trash bin.
Inexplicably, the sound of metal clashing coincided with the crackling sound of burning paper.
In just a minute or two, the fire went out with a “snap”, and the surroundings instantly became dark.
Bai Tang trotted over again, tempting it with a branch; just ashes remained in the iron pot.
There’s nothing left.
“Dr. Jiang, it’s all burnt!” he exclaimed as he turned around.
Jiang Yunshu smiled, his eyes reflecting the omega’s grin, and replied, “Yes.”
Suddenly, the omega reached into his arms and pulled out a fresh notebook, which he then offered to the alpha with both hands and stated, “Here is what I ask for of you. You have to do it.”
For a brief moment, Jiang Yunshu was dumbfounded. The notebook has a fluffy animal on the cover. He recalled what Bai Tang had previously told him.
“You can’t get rid of what your parents obligated you in your bones, so you can replace theirs with mine, okay?” the omega sat on the bed with red eyes, crying. “You can go to bed early now, okay?”
Jiang Yunshu took it and opened it, only to discover that only the first page of the notebook had writings:
- I want my hubby to stay healthy and live a long life with me.
- Hubby has to go to bed with me every night. He’s not allowed to play tricks.
- Hubby should strike a proper balance with work and rest, and allocate time with his work and personal life reasonably.
- Hubby will love me for all eternity.
Jiang Yunshu stared for a long time at the four rows of fine letters, the corners of his eyes compulsively warming up. His mouth gaped open, but he couldn’t say anything for a while.
“There are some other things I haven’t thought of yet…” Bai Tang’s face was flushed. His gaze wandered, only stopping to stare at the unformed pond in the distance. “I will make up for it in the future.”
Jiang Yunshu gave a soft “hmm”.
“I will also do the one written at the end.” Bai Tang’s eyelashes fluttered slightly. He took a deep breath, and promised seriously, “I, too, will love you for the rest of my life…”
Jiang Yunshu suddenly turned his head to the side, staring at the gate with wide eyes, trying to hold back his tears. However, at this moment, rather than losing face, he wanted to hold Bai Tang in his arms.
He buried himself in the omega’s shoulder, smelling the scent of his beloved condensed milk, his voice trembling, “…Okay.”
Translator’s Feed:
Honestly, the part where Bai Tang burned the notebook and him telling Jiang Yunshu to watch clearly, completely mirroring the chapter where Jiang Yunshu threw Yunsu’s stuff in front of Bai Tang, made me feel a bit emotional. The love they have for each other 🥹 I love them so much?!
Why are they are so cute?! ♡✧。 (◍＞◡＜◍)。✧♡
Thank You for the new chapter ٩(*ゝڡ◕๑)۶♥
So much sweetness my heart and teeth are aching aaaaaaa ☺
We’ve come such a long way 🥹🥹 And Jiang Ruanjia is also slowing improving!
Letting Jiang Ruanjia take over some chores is okay now because it’s her choice
to participate 😌.
