Influence
Ling Changfeng was having blood drawn in the testing room.
Dr.
Lu Sen who was accompanying him explained: “The matching degree of alpha and omega pairs is dynamic.
In a natural matching, it will also change with the age, health status, and whether they are in estrus.
Right after a marking, the marking value will be at its highest.”
After the last tube of blood was drawn, Ling Changfeng raised his hand and pulled down his sleeves.
The necessary items have been done, and the sharp wounds on his palms have been treated.
He put on his coat and got up to leave.
“Ill have some things to do, the rest will be on you.”
Dr.
Lu Sen looked down at the time.
It was past ten oclock at night, but it wasnt too late.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
He raised his head to observe Ling Changfengs face.
Once the abnormal red tide faded, the originally bronze skin was a little pale, and his lips were a little paler than usual.
Other than that, there was no abnormality.
He really is a hard worker, unfazed by tiredness or pain.
Dr.
Lu Sen sighed silently.
“Dont worry, Ill let you know when the results come out.”
Ling Changfeng got up, walked to the door and stopped.
“Weve delayed your rest.”
The corners of Lu Sens mouth twitched as he smiled in reply.
“Its fine, dont I have to abide by medical ethics”

Xu Xinghe slept soundly that night, and lay in bed until dawn the next day.
When he opened my eyes, he felt as if someone had cleaned his ren and du meridians, and his whole body was refreshed.
But when he recalled what happened last night, his entire being petrified.
He vaguely remembered that he entered estrus at the dance.
His brain was a mess, and he couldnt remember many things that happened after that.
But he still remembered that in that closed environment, under the dim light of the car, he rolled and shivered like a dying fish, until that sea-like pheromone entered his glands-
Ling Changfeng should have temporarily marked him.
The attending nurse saw he was awake, and hurriedly called the doctor.
The empty VIP ward suddenly became lively.
After a careful inspection, Xu Xinghes physical indicators were deemed stable and his estrus period had passed safely.
After a while, Ling Changfeng also appeared.
Xu Xinghe lowered his head and swirled the porridge in the bowl, unwilling to face him.
Last night was too embarrassing!
“Do you feel better”
Xu Xinghe raised his head to see the familiar scene of Ling Changfeng standing in front of the hospital bed.
When he opened his mouth to reply, Xu Xinghe suddenly found that this person was pleasing to the eye.
Seeing the nose and pair of eyes that hadnt changed, he seemed more attractive than usual.
When he realized that he might be under the influence of pheromones, he secretly snorted and told himself to calm down, stay rational, and stop being “controlled” by pheromones.
“Im fine.” Xu Xinghe coughed twice, trying to make his voice sound the same as usual.
“What about you Were you affected”
“…”
The ward fell silent for a while.
This question asked by omega who had just passed estrus was quite provocative.
Its like asking “Did you respond” or “Can you do it”
Dean Lu Sen, who came with him, chuckled silently, thinking to himself, this grumpy alpha is going to grab his little omega and mark him again.
Ling Changfeng was silent for a while, and said as usual, “Im fine too.”
Xu Xinghe looked at him and blinked: “Are you tired”
Not long did Ling Changfeng seem more pleasing to the eye, he also seems to be able to detect his emotional state.
Xu Xinghe hesitated for a moment, and then added, “Why dont you go and rest for a while.”
Lu Sen has suggested this to Ling Changfeng eight times, if not ten times, today.
He guessed that Ling Changfeng would still answer like this – “not tired.”
Midthought, he saw Ling Changfeng nod his head in a kind-hearted manner.
“Okay.”
Lu Sen: “…”
Hehe, this dog alpha.
Although Ling Changfeng nodded, he did not leave immediately, but picked up his medical report and looked at it.
Xu Xinghe waited for a while, and then tried to tactfully evict the guest.
“Do you want to stay here to rest”
Hearing his words, Ling Changfeng turned to Xu Xinghe unhurriedly, and asked: “Is that okay”
Xu Xinghe: “…”
Of course not! There is only one bed!
Ling Changfeng put down the report in his hand and waved the others out.
All of a sudden, he and Xu Xinghe were the only two left in the ward.
Ling Changfeng said, “You last night…”
Xu Xinghes nerves tightened again.
“Seemed very scared.” Ling Changfeng said, “Can I ask why”
His little spouse was afraid of being marked.
This is not a normal reaction that an omega should have in heat.
“Oh” Xu Xinghe resolutely denied: “I wasnt.”
Ling Changfeng: “…”
Xu Xinghe picked up the apple in the fruit bowl and bit down.
“You remembered wrong.”
Another stubborn refusal.
Ling Changfeng did not expose him.
Instead he thought with relief that it seemed that there was nothing wrong.
The beautiful and fragile Xu Xinghe last night not only made him happy, but also made him fear he would break at any time.
Lke holding a precious and fragile glass, loving it requires the utmost care.
“Well, you didnt.
You are very strong, and survived the estrus period alone.” Ling Changfeng said.
Xu Xinghe: “…”
Although Ling Changfeng didnt intend to expose him, he still asked tentatively, “Do you remember what happened last night”
Xu Xinghe tilted his head and thought for a while.
There were a few fragmented memories, but they were incomplete.
Those that he could remember were humiliating, so he simply stopped thinking about them.
“I dont remember.”
Thats fine.
Ling Changfeng lowered his eyes.
“Then you have a good rest.”
After he was about to leave, Qin Yuan walked in.
It can be seen that Mr.
Adjutant didnt sleep well last night.
After staying up all night, he had dark circles under his eyes.
“You know that the more than 500 people who attended the state banquet were from all walks of life, and are all elites!”
As soon as Qin Yuan came in, he started going off, resembling a violent lion more than Ling Changfeng when he was in the susceptible period.
“People from the military and political circles are fine, but people from other industries, and then the many media outside the palace… I havent stopped calling since last night! Even the frontier battlefield doesnt have so many trivial matters!”
Ling Changfeng asked: “How is the situation now”
“Its under control for now.”
Qin Yuan put the emphasis on the words “for now”.
“But dont be too happy.
Paper cant contain fire, this matter will be leaked sooner or later, and cant be suppressed.
Peoples mouths are unreliable, and this matter will become entertainment gossip sooner or later.”
Ling Changfeng said: “I think…”
“I think you should both go and make up physiology class!” Qin Yuan suddenly interrupted his boss with a loud voice, and slapped the stack of documents in his arms on the table with a blank face.
“How can you not realize the problem If you guys had used inhibitors a quarter of an hour earlier, things wouldnt have turned out like this!”
“…”
“…”
The other two people in the ward were speechless.
It was the first time that Xu Xinghe saw Qin Yuan lose his temper, and he asked in a low voice, “Whats going on”
Qin Yuan took a deep breath.
Ling Changfeng turned his head to look at him.
Major General Qin was unable to continue under the gaze of mismatched pupils.
He sighed, lowered his volume, and said to Xu Xinghe: “Forget it.
Its all right, you rest well.”
Then he raised his head to meet Ling Changfengs gaze: “You too.”
Qin Yuan walked out of the ward, and followed Ling Changfeng all the way to the temporary conference room.
“Whats the matter”
Qin Yuan asked as soon as he entered the room.
“I remember you mentioned the scar on his gland before—”
“Huh”
“You said the scar was there before his first marriage”
“Yes, but its unclear where it came from.”
Ling Changfeng looked out the window and said slowly, “Go find out.”
Qin Yuan was a little surprised.
“Didnt you say…”
“I did say I want to wait for him to tell me.
The premise is that the past has passed.”
Ling Changfeng stood with his back to him, making people unable to see his expression.
“If it didnt affect him now, I wouldnt dig deeper.
But if…”
If it was because someone had hurt him…
Ling Changfeng lowered his eyes, hiding the violent emotions in his eyes.
“I understand, but it may take a while.” Qin Yuan said, glaring at him angrily.
“Thanks to you, the recent workload will be heavy, and there is a shortage of manpower.”
Marshal Ling acknowledged his statement, and nodded.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Qin Yuan snorted softly.
“No, this is my job… Go and rest.”
In any case, this turmoil passed without danger.
As for the temporary mark, Xu Xinghe quickly convinced himself that it was only temporary.
It was a last resort.
His estrus is like an indefinite time bomb.
Its better to detonate it earlier.
So he took a two-day break and returned to work at the Ark as usual.
One morning in August, Xu Xinghe, who was sitting at the dining table eating breakfast, received a calendar reminder.
He opened the group chat software, and the news of “Capital University F4” flashed again.
Cheryl: “I say, isnt tomorrow Qi Zis1nickname for Lin Qi birthday Why is no one talking in the group”
Vincent: “Where is the birthday star going to treat guests @Lin Qi”
Lin Qi: “How are preparations for your fathers birthday gifts going”
Lin Qi: “Ah, why am I being devastated by a paper the day before my birthday… Can someone help me write the code”
Five minutes passed.
Lin Qi: “Where is everyone Are you still people”
Xu Xinghe: “Its your fault for killing the sky.”
Lin Qi: “Forget it, Im drunk today, and will worry about tomorrow tomorrow”
Vincent: “So”
Lin Qi: “Tomorrow night at six oclock, Yunwei Pavilion.
If you dont get drunk, you cant go home!”
“Did something good happen” The person sitting across from the dining table suddenly said.
Before Xu Xinghe could put away his smile, he raised his head and said to Ling Changfeng, “Its my friends birthday, I wont come back to eat tomorrow night.”
Ling Changfengs eyes swept across the small dimple on his left cheek, nodded and said, “Okay, then Ill have someone take you there tomorrow night.”
“No need, no need to send me.
We dont know when it will end.” Xu Xinghe said.
Ling Changfeng nodded: “Dont drink.”
He reminded again, “You have just been discharged from the hospital, pay more attention.”
“Understood.” Xu Xinghe agreed obediently.
Then he replied in the group, “If you dont get drunk, you cant go home!”
Hahahahaha.
Of course, XXH ignored LCFs words like a bear child.
