Han Xingqian temporarily sent Xiao Xun to Tongkou City Hospital, and after confirming that his life was out of danger, he stayed close to Xiao Xun for two days.
Because of the inflammation of the wound, Xiao Xun had a low fever, so he was a little out of it. As long as Han Xingqian brought his hand over, he would dazedly rub his face against it.
Han Xingqian sat in front of the bed, leaning on the railing and rubbing Xiao Xun’s head.
The sick puppy didn’t make a ruckus, nor did he call out in pain; he was only being especially clingy and needed the comfort and company of his owner.
Xiao Xun won’t act spoiled, and he doesn’t say much, not to mention sweet talks. At most, he would just put his chin on Han Xingqian’s chest, and look at him earnestly with his clear black eyes.
So although they made an agreement to not read each other’s thoughts, Han Xingqian secretly wasn’t able to comply with this. He very much wanted to know what the puppy was thinking whenever he looked at him in earnest.
He bowed his head and touched Xiao Xun’s forehead with his horn. He heard a weak groaning, ‘It hurts, so cold…want to hug Han-ge…’
Han Xingqian lightly coughed, took off his dirty coat, and quietly lied on the bed. The single bed was crowded, so the tall and big alpha could only lie on his side. He drew the omega into his embrace, his body heat passed through the clothes and warmed up the cold puppy.
As expected, Xiao Xun cuddled into his embrace, burying his head into Han Xingqian’s chest.
Han Xingqian used his associated ability, The Holy Beast Prowls, to read his mind—
‘So warm, I want to lick Han-ge.’
Han Xingqian kissed Xiao Xun’s bangs, slightly lifted his chin, and exposed his neck for Xiao Xun, waiting for him to lick it.
However, Xiao Xun restrained himself and didn’t move.
Han Xingqian waited for half an hour but didn’t see any movements from the omega; he thought about it but wouldn’t make a move, it was simply outrageous. If he continued being like this, how could he know what he was thinking without reading his mind? Han Xingqian decided not to abide by this agreement anymore. It should be fine as long as he does it stealthily without being found out.
He once again lowered his head and placed his horn on Xiao Xun, but discovered he had fallen asleep. Han Xingqian was dumbfounded, he could only kiss the corner of his lips and let it go.
Later, the IOA issued a notice to send all the students who have been injured during the siege at the Research Institute to Greenfly Island to recuperate. The island had a beautiful environment, clean air, comprehensive medical equipment, and professional general practitioners for diagnosis and treatment; allowing the students to get the most appropriate treatment. The most important part was that it would allow them to relax their minds. It was the first time these teenagers have encountered such a grueling battle, if it wasn’t handled well it would leave a psychological shadow on them. Thus, everyone needed to undergo psychological counseling.
But due to the sea and land relations being tense and the solidification of the sea surface, a recuperation that was originally supposed to last two months was forcibly dragged on for a year.
Han Xingqian leaned against the head of the seat, looking at the X-ray scan in his hand over and over again while also watching Xia Naichuan work on his homework.
He heard that the puppy will be back in two days. Once he came back, Han Xingqian planned to pick him up at the pier, then eat a big feast with him afterward.
Xia Naichuan suddenly raised his head, looking in the direction of the closed office door, and his ears lightly shook. “There’s someone outside the door.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
His associated ability, like Bai Chunian’s, was one of the most easily awakened associated ability of the feline gland, “Multi-Frequency Listening.”

Xiao Xun suddenly forgot why he was nervous, he excitedly rushed forward and hugged Han Xingqian, his tail wagging so much that he was about to fly.
This was a dog’s instinctive reaction; once they meet with their owner after a long time of being apart, they would be unable to control their excitement. Like a wild horse that had lost its mind, it would take a long time before they calm down.
Han Xingqian was extremely surprised, frozen in place, then was overjoyed. He patted the omega’s back so he would calm down and brought him inside the office before closing the door. He looked at the calendar next to the door. “Is today the day you return? Why didn’t you tell me before boarding the ferry?”
Xiao Xun calmed down at once, his frantically wagging tail came to a halt and silently returned to being tucked between his legs. The return day had long been set, but he wanted to give Han-ge a surprise, and also didn’t want him to go through the trouble of personally driving to the pier to pick him up, so he lied that the trip was delayed by two days. However, as a result, before getting on the ferry, his face was licked by the white lion, and his face was full of the brandy pheromones smell. Before he came over, he went to the bathroom to wash his face three times, hoping to avoid Han-ge’s interrogation.
When Xia Naichuan saw the unfamiliar person, he simply put his homework aside, and turned around to watch the excitement, scanning Xiao Xun from head to toe. So he’s a greyhound omega, his waist sure is thin, and he even has his tail between his legs. He looks very easy to bully.
Xiao Xun suddenly saw that there was a stranger here. Embarrassed, he removed his hands from Han Xingqian and put them behind his back, and explained softly, “I wanted to call you before boarding, but my phone ran out of battery.”
“It’s fine.” Han Xingqian rubbed his soft hair. “You haven’t eaten yet, right? Fortunately, I have nothing to do here. I’ll take you to eat in a bit. I’ll make a reservation at a restaurant first.”
Xiao Xun relaxed and involuntarily wagged his tail. “No need, I’m still not hungry. I’ll wait here until you get off of work.”
“The agents aren’t on duty right now, so there’s no patients. I’ll just ask one of my students to take over.” Han Xingqian called the restaurant’s front desk first, his free hand couldn’t help but stroke the little omega’s hair, ears, and cheek.
When his fingertip brushed past his hairline, it came into contact with a wet foam. Han Xingquan smelled the foam on his finger; it was an overpowering scent of soap.
“Hello, I would like to book a private room for around 12 noon.” Han Xingqian made the call while leaning toward Xiao Xun and observing his expression. The distance between them was getting closer, until there was only two centimeters between the tip of his nose and Xiao Xun’s cheek.
“Sorry miss, something came up and I would like to change the time. Would it be possible for 2:30 this afternoon?”
“Alright, sir. Hope you have a nice day, goodbye.”
The phone call was hung up, and the beeping sound came through the receiver, allowing Xiao Xun to hear it too.
Han Xingqian lowered his head and asked him, “Did you just wash your face with the soap from the ward area? Why?”
“Because, because…” Xiao Xun tightly clamped his tail, wanting to make up a reason but wasn’t good at making up lies.
“Because there’s a scent of an alpha’s pheromones on his face.” Xia Naichuan leaned over on the table and smiled slyly. “I can smell it, it’s the scent of a lion. The lion kissed him on the face.”
“It, it wasn’t a kiss, just licked…”
“Licked?” Xia Naichuan asked with his chin on his hand, “Really? You guys already progressed to this stage? I seem to have seen your face in the battle video; are you a sniper? I’m also a lion, how about you consider dating me?”
Han Xingqian raised a brow. “Don’t make trouble, continue doing your homework.”
“Uncle, what are you in a rush for? Is he your student? You shouldn’t mess with a student, right?” Xia Naichuan released black rose courtship pheromones, confessing to Xiao Xun in front of Han Xingqian, “Gege, how about I take you on a motorcycle drive?”
When the little alpha smiled, he revealed two canines, and there were dimples on both sides of his cheek. He perfectly inherited his dad’s alluring face, and even the unrestrained pheromones were exactly the same.
But in the next second, the kitty was lifted up by the collar, and he was thrown out the door along with his backpack.
“You can rest now, go play.” Han Xingqqian locked the office door.
Xia Naichuan snorted indifferently. He leaned on the wall and played with his phone, planning to invite his friends over to his house to play games.
At this moment, a bee-shaped mini drone flew in front of Xia Naichuan, and the drone was holding a Chinese rose leaf-type eavesdropping device
“What the heck is this?” Xia Naichuan held the leaf between his fingers and scrutinized it.
Suddenly, his phone rang; it was Lu Yan calling, “Xiao Chuan, haven’t you been wanting to go to Greenfly Island to train? Hehe, right now I’ll give you a very difficult mission. I just found out Bai Chunian came back, he snuck in from the garden. Find a way to put this eavesdropping device on him.”
Once he heard his idol’s name, Xia Naichuan became energized, as if he had obtained a celebrity’s private schedule. “Really? He’s here? …But I don’t dare to. If I secretly touch him, what if my idol’s impression of me becomes bad?”
“Aiya, as long as you successfully stick it on him without him finding out, the next trainee on Greenfly Island will be none other than you, and he’ll definitely write you a letter of recommendation. Listen to your Lu-ge, it’s a sure thing!”
“Okay…I’ll trust you.” Xia Naichuan held the leaf and headed toward the corridors of the ward area.
Sure enough, Bai Chunian quietly passed though Dr. Han’s consultation room, walking like a thief. Rimbaud moved forward in big strides, not caring in the least.
Xiao Naichuan kept watch against the wall and waited for the lion. He deliberately bumped into Bai Chunian as he passed around the corner, sticking the leaf on the bouquet of flowers he grasped in his hand.
Rimbaud furrowed his brow, but discovered that this teen was a kitten, so he stretched out his hand and rubbed him unscrupulously; forgiving him for his rudeness.
Bai Chunian’s vigilant instinct as an agent was still there. When his body makes contact with another person, he would react immediately and check to see if something was attached to him or if he had lost something.
However, Xia Naichuan suddenly sniffed him and said in surprise, “It was you who kissed Teacher Han’s boyfriend?”
Bai Chunian put his hands together and harped on in alarm, “It wasn’t me, it really wasn’t. You mustn’t tell Han-ge I was here, kiddo.”
“It’s not a problem!” Xia Naichuan swiftly took out a marker from his backpack, then faced his back toward Bai Chunian, raising his waist. “Ge, I have admired you for a long time, sign for me.”
“?” Bai Chunian took the marker in bafflement. “Kid, what’s your name?”
“Xia Naichuan, the ‘nai chuan’ in ‘Swallowing a hundred rivers, as it is virtuous vast is the sea.’”
“Oh, you’re Dr. Zhong’s son.” Bai Chunian was about to write but suddenly stopped. “What are you admiring me for? Your uncle Xia Jingtian is much better than me.”
“Second uncle won’t let me be a soldier for the PBB. He said it’s dangerous and I can’t handle so many hardships. I don’t care though, I want to be an agent at the IOA.”
“Aiyo, young master, it’s even tougher here, much harder than ordinary troops. Moreover, in this line of work, you could die at any moment without getting the chance to say goodbye. I can’t just take you in if your dad doesn’t agree. There’s no room for negotiation on this matter.” Bai Chunian stuffed the marker back to him. “Now go, don’t block our way. I’m in a rush to go upstairs.”
“Ah, ge, don’t go!” Xia Naichuan watched as Bai Chunian pushed his hands away and left. Rimbaud couldn’t bear to see the kitten in such a pitiful state, and asked while pinching his cheeks, “What’s your original form’s paw pads color?”
“What original form, I don’t have one. I’m human.” Xia Naichuan’s cheeks were pinched until his lips formed a grin. “But my dad said that when I was born, the pads of my hands and feet were pink and black, the color of strawberry chocolate…”
“Oh! Randido, if you need anything, you can come find me.” Rimbaud was greatly pleased, signing “Rimbaud” on Xia Naichuan’s clothes with the marker before walking away.
“?” Xia Naichuan stretched out his shirt, bowed his head and looked at the signature on it in puzzlement.

Inside the locked consulting room, Han Xingqian sat on the chair behind the office desk, his legs opened wide in a relaxed manner.
Xiao Xun stood awkwardly in the small space between Han Xingqian’s legs and the desk, with his hands behind his back. His lips were very red, and there were bite marks on them. There were also a few kiss marks around his nape.
“Are your injuries better now?” Han Xingqian clasped his hands on his lap, asking him with his head bowed.
“Mhm…all better.”
“Completely healed?”
“Mh…completely.”
“Lift up your shirt and let me see.”
“…” Xiao Xun licked his lips, then slowly raised the hem of his shirt, revealing a slender and smooth lower abdomen.
A thin layer of skin wrapped around lean muscles. His waist was thin but strong; not following the Greyhound family’s abnormal and deformed aesthetics to undergo surgery to remove the ribs in pursuit of a wasp-like waist that wouldn’t fit perfectly into his hands. Instead, it looked naturally beautiful.
It was just that there was a freshly healed bullet scar left on the right side of his lower abdomen, which was pinker than the skin around it.
In fact, when he was far away from Greenfly Island, Han Xingqian often made video calls to follow up on Xiao Xun’s recovery, observing his wounds through the phone camera. Even the slightest inflammation in the early stage of recovery would make him worry.
Han Xingqian pressed his palm on that scar, carefully identifying the muscle lines beneath the skin, checking the bones’ recovery status.
The warm palm pressed against the abdomen, slowly moving. Xiao Xun bit his lips, afraid that if he relaxed, a moaning sound would come out.
“Luckily, there’s no lingering issues.” Han Xingqian took off his golden glasses and placed them on the desk. He raised his head and asked, “Did you miss the physical exam this year?”
“Yes, Greenfly Island only conducts routine physical exams for current students, so we don’t have a part in it.”
“Alright, then take off your clothes and lie down on the examination bed. I’ll do a check-up myself.” Han Xingqian took out a stethoscope from the drawer and hung it on his neck.
Xiao Xun had never refused Dr. Han’s orders. Although his face was burning up, he still obediently took off his shirt and pants, and rested on the examination bed.
“There’s still one article of clothing left, are you waiting for me to remove it?”
“Han-ge…can we not do it here…” Xiao Xun pleaded in a quiet voice. “Let’s go eat first, then go home and…”
“There’s still things we have to do at home.” Han Xingqian put on a pair of rubber gloves, stretching and snapping them on his wrist, which made a sharp snapping sound.
Xiao Xun could only obey.
Han Xingqian leaned down and whispered into the ear of the omega with his eyes shut tightly, “I’ve already told the restaurant front desk that we’ll arrive late by two hours. Do you think I’ll allow my puppy that has the smell of someone else on him to eat with me?”
Thank You for the new chapter ♡╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯♡
Dr Han is upset… 🤣🤣🤣
Who is Xia J and Dr Z? I can’t remember 🤔
Hello. Xia J is Major’s Xia older brother. In the prequel about LuSangJin and YanYi, he was in the military with LuSangJin if I recall well. After, he became the head of an hospital in which DrZhong worked. In the actual story I think DrZhong is the head of medical service of IOA and kinda mentor of DrHan. He married Xia J and they have a son. BaiChunian was looking for recruting the boy in a chapter but DrZhong decline saying the other father (Xia J) doesn’t want the child to become a military.
