Previously, Yin Yeyou only had a vague concept of this matter, knowing that it was a necessary step in forming a partnership. In layman’s terms, it seemed to be called “mating?”
Of course, there was a more civilized term for it in human society, but Yin Yeyou just skimmed through it and didn’t remember it well.
He only vaguely remembered the content.
However, just like humans observing the activities of other organisms, there was no real sense of immersion for Yin Yeyou when mimicking human behavior; it was just a disguise, a shell he wore. When he looked at these things, he didn’t feel much.
Before meeting Bai Muxing, these things were only existent on paper for him. He understood them, but it was like there was a layer of fog between him and the understanding; he couldn’t really empathize.
Yin Yeyou couldn’t even understand why humans were so fixated on holding hands and hugging; after all, these concepts didn’t exist for Yijia.
There were very few Yijias, and in the vast universe, adult members of the same species almost never encountered each other. If, by some rare chance, they did, they wouldn’t engage in any friendly actions toward each other.
The most probable outcome would be a primal struggle sparked by mutual chaotic pain. For them, bodies were strengths and weapons, not mediums for expressing friendliness and intimacy.
It wasn’t until he walked off the starship and saw the black-haired human in the crowd that, with his body mimicking the form of a human, he suddenly felt a desire to get closer.
From that moment on, because of his connection with Bai Muxing, he truly began to integrate into this mimicked form.
He began to understand human intimacy.
I really want to hug Bai Muxing right now and cover him with my own scent!
—This was the first thought that came to Yin Yeyou’s mind upon seeing Bai Muxing for the first time. However, his crash course in human social etiquette just prevented him from actually making such a move, sparing him from being kicked out by Bai Muxing on the spot.
But now, the urge was even stronger.
Could he still resist it?
The young Yijia was stunned by the new knowledge flooding into his mind. He looked and looked again…
By the time he snapped out of it, he found himself unconsciously holding onto Bai Muxing’s waist, his face flushed red. He even pinched it a couple of times.
It felt a touch softer and more delicate than he had imagined.
Yin Yeyou’s limited human vocabulary couldn’t describe the sensation, but he felt his mimicked heart beating faster in that moment.
Perhaps because he was rarely treated with such intimacy, the person in his arms trembled slightly, warmth seeping through the thin fabric of his pajamas.
Realizing that Bai Muxing was still running a fever, Yin Yeyou instantly calmed down.
He quickly cleared his mind of clutter; apart from a couple of waist pinches, he didn’t do anything else.
Instead, he carefully lifted Bai Muxing and placed him back on the bed, adjusting him into the most comfortable sleeping position for humans and tucking him in snugly.
The morning sunlight had already climbed to the corner of the bed, caressing Bai Muxing’s face and casting a pale glow on his skin under his eyes.
It seemed that Bai Muxing was feeling uncomfortable due to the fever, with a slight frown on his forehead and a peculiar flush on his cheeks, displaying a hint of unhealthy color.

His position was in the shade, away from the light, sitting in a pool of darkness, focused on Bai Muxing.
If Bai Muxing were awake, he would see Yin Yeyou’s striking silver eyes shining remarkably in the shadows, like a shimmering lake, silently watching over him.
Yin Yeyou kept watching, not keeping his hands still, as if he had some sort of ADHD.
Occasionally, he would touch Bai Muxing’s forehead to check his temperature or pinch his fingertips hanging by the edge of the bed.
It was like an evil dragon guarding a treasure that belongs to him. He knows that he should treasure it carefully, but because he likes it so much, he still can’t help but reach out and play with it over and over again.
It seemed as if he would suffer if he touched it less.
Then he would lapse into daydreaming, his face flushing even more than Bai Muxing’s feverish complexion. His face displayed a spectrum of colors, resembling someone whose mind was overheated.
Yin Yeyou watched for quite some time before reluctantly getting up.
After the initial panic caused by Bai Muxing’s fever had subsided, he calmed down and carefully assessed Bai Muxing’s condition, knowing that he was not in any serious danger, which eased his mind.
They possess the ability to perceive the internal conditions of other organisms through touch and smell. With further refinement, this ability could serve as a qualified health assessment tool.
It’s not like he’s promoting himself, but with him around, Bai Muxing won’t need to call a doctor anymore! That could save a lot of money!
Yin Yeyou had already begun self-studying medical knowledge, and physiological knowledge like this was the easiest for him to learn. However, what truly helped him calm down was the reason he found in his inherited memories for Bai Muxing’s fever.
When destined companions and Yijia are too close, if one of the species is weaker — considering that in the universe from their perspective, there are almost no species stronger than them, this scenario is almost inevitable — their physiology evolves due to the influence of magnetic fields.
After all, the lifespan of their race, even for the ordinary, can reach thousands of years, not to mention him, who inherited the bloodline of the original royal family of the Mother Goddess.
He couldn’t remember when he was born; it was too long and too vague a memory.
For a race like humans, who can only live one or two hundred years, without physiological evolution, their lifespan is too short for them. It’s like ants compared to humans—just a fleeting moment.
This mode of joint evolution was also an ability evolved for courtship.
After all, apart from crawling around the universe and wreaking havoc, they didn’t have many opportunities to really use the power in their bodies, and finding a partner is their top priority.
If not now, then when?
After getting up, Yin Yeyou continued to stare at Bai Muxing for a long time by the bed. He moved slowly, almost as if his feet were stuck to the floor with glue, sometimes taking a few steps forward and then stepping back.
He even carefully examined the entire room, looking for any areas that might need his attention.
Finally, after reluctantly closing the window and securely drawing the curtains to ensure the room was safe and comfortable, he finally found a reason to leave.
Although he wanted to stay here indefinitely, he still had to help Bai Muxing take care of the farm and tidy up various affairs.
—Being a qualified companion meant being able to hunt for enough food outside and manage the nest inside.
This didn’t require learning; it was an instinct engraved in the genes of all organisms.
Even though Bai Muxing had enthusiastically responded to his advances (yes, that proactive kiss), Yin Yeyou never thought of slackening off. Otherwise, wouldn’t he be like those inferior males who were overly attentive before marriage but became lazy and did nothing after getting married?
That way, he’d end up without a mate!
Humans weren’t like them; they changed partners halfway through! Yin Yeyou detested such customs!
What was that word? Divorce or breakup?
He couldn’t remember.
—Anyway, he wouldn’t give Bai Muxing a chance to bring up that word!
Yin Yeyou thought of the comments he had made while spending all night on the emotional forum in order to learn human courtship methods, and a sense of crisis suddenly emerged in his heart.
With a determined heart, Yin Yeyou closed the door firmly and immediately started bustling around, not daring to stop for a moment.
***
Bai Muxing, naturally, was unaware of Yin Yeyou’s tumultuous inner turmoil.
He had been sleeping heavily for most of the day, completely unaware of the grand sunset illuminating the sky with its soft hues by the time he finally stirred.
Opening his eyes, he felt hungry immediately. After all, he hadn’t eaten anything the whole day, and the emptiness in his stomach caused a momentary spasm of hunger.
But he couldn’t afford to dwell on that.
Bai Muxing still harbored lingering fears from his past experiences of being an Omega awakening to heat.
Every time he had a fever, it signaled that he was sinking deeper into the vortex known as the “heat period.”
It was his initial lack of awareness of his own peculiarities that had led things to escalate to an irreversible point.
After his rebirth, during which he had the glands removed and was hospitalized, he had slept restlessly every night.
He had thought of the possibility of differentiation sooner.
Before his rebirth, Bai Muxing had thought about it more than once.
After his rebirth, during the time when he was hospitalized just after his glands were removed, Bai Muxing slept restlessly every night, not knowing whether it was due to excessive blood loss.
The glands were in a special location, making it impossible to use large amounts of painkillers.
Many times, he dreamt of waking up in his past life, staring at the hospital’s white ceiling and the quiet blinking of various colored lines and numbers on the monitoring equipment beside him, unable to distinguish whether the pain in his neck was from the wound or from heat.
Was his rebirth just a dream?
When he woke up from the dream, would he still be the same Omega trapped in the capital star, being pursued by several alphas who matched him 100%?
His hands and feet were cold in a daze.
It wasn’t until he struggled to reach out and touch the gauze and smell the faint smell of blood that he felt relieved.
Almost subconsciously, Bai Muxing’s pupils shrank, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to reach out and touch the back of his neck.
The skin there was smooth, and even if he pressed it a little harder, he didn’t feel any abnormality. Bai Muxing breathed a sigh of relief.
Probably not…
After all, before starting the operation, he had gone through the old textbooks and carefully studied the position of the glands to ensure that the cut was clean enough.
Bai Muxing was still somewhat sure of his own methods, and his experience in joining the army over the years was still somewhat useful.
And apart from hunger, he didn’t feel any discomfort. It was like simply taking a long nap.
He seemed to have had a long dream; Bai Muxing was sure of this for some reason. But as soon as he woke up, he completely forgot the content, leaving only a bit of emptiness, like an aftertaste.
It should be a good dream. Although he could not remember the content, his heart was still filled with a touch of relief and joy.
There is no deep tiredness like before after escaping from a long dream.
His body feels soft and relaxed.
It was as if all the past heaviness had been washed away.
The slight sense of depression in the past has also disappeared.
In fact, after the operation, Bai Muxing did feel that his physical condition was not as good as before.
Perhaps just like what the doctor had threatened him before, although beta glands were useless in courtship activities, they were still a part of the body, interconnected with other hormonal systems. Damage to them could have some repercussions.
Of course, it could also be a change in his mindset.
After enduring years of being forced to navigate through social circles on the capital planet in his past life, he finally succeeded in escaping to become a farmer. With that, he had become increasingly lazy, turning into a complete salted fish.
In the past, he could stay awake for days and nights on the battlefield, but now it is difficult for him to have that kind of mental energy. Once people relax and lose faith, they will easily feel tired. Bai Muxing has learned relevant knowledge in psychology courses before.
But now that the war was over, he had retired, and his work intensity on the farm was just a sprinkling of water. So it was not a big deal.
Bai Muxing Xianyu felt confident and at ease. He didn’t panic about it.
However, who would dislike their body getting better?
Anyway, perhaps out of keen intuition, he felt it wasn’t a bad thing.
After a moment lost in thought about his past life, Bai Muxing finally felt inclined to check on his current situation.
It’s strange, why did he suddenly sleep for so long? Was this fever so severe?
Thank you for the chapter!!
I don’t know what else it could be if not a fever 😥
