He felt his clothes being tugged, followed immediately by the scent of sweet rice wine wiggling its way into his nostrils.
He had been wondering which child prankishly held onto him, but upon smelling that familiar scent, a familiar feeling emerged from the depths of his heart.
I turned my head and saw the child who had cried in the hospital that day because of the uncomfortable heat caused by the fever. The child was now bowing down, pulling at their clothes, even their earlobes were turning red.
It's you. What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Jiang Qihao held Su Shijiu's hand and gently squeezed it, feeling the fleshy warmth in his palm.
The palm of Su Shijiu's hand was held tightly by Jiang Qihao, and a strange sensation surged into the depths of his heart.
Jiang Qihao's hand shook in his hand, causing his upper arm to move along with it.
When people haven't seen each other, they miss each other dearly. But now that they have met, they don't know what to say anymore.
"There's... there's nothing." Su Shijiu hesitated for a moment, reluctant to remove his hand from Jiang Qihao's palm, and then pulled it back.
"Do you attend this school?" Jiang Qihao asked while carrying a medical kit on his shoulder. Although many doctors in the hospital criticized this as old-fashioned, this box could neatly contain many things.
Su Shi nodded and smiled even more shyly.
Without saying anything, Su Shijiu was startled when someone heavily patted his shoulder. In response, he instinctively darted into Jiang Qihao's embrace, tightly holding onto his hand, reluctant to let go.
"Jiujiu, who is this?"
Just now, after receiving comforting pheromones from Zhong Yu, Song Ci smiled as bright as a flower, making it hard for people to look away.
Su Shijiu's reflexive reaction startled Jiang Qihao, causing him to instinctively pull the frightened child into his arms.
What Song Ci saw now was a scene where two people were embracing each other and their hands were unwilling to loosen their grip.
In an instant, Su Shijiu's face turned all red, resembling the appearance of someone intoxicated.
I wanted to come out of Jiang Qihao's embrace so as not to embarrass Song Ci, but I also did not want to miss the warmth in his embrace.
Before he could make a decision, Song Ci had already reached out and pulled him out of Jiang Qi Hao's embrace. She had assumed the protective stance of a mother hen with her chicks, hiding him behind her. Little did she know, the person opposite them was an alpha, while she herself was merely a weak omega.
Jiang Qihao found it interesting, so he kept his eyes fixed on the two people in front of him without any other actions. However, Song Ci saw it as Jiang Qihao provoking them.
"Hey, you! What are you looking at? Don't you know you shouldn't treat an omega like this? It's disrespectful, you know?"
In front of Jiang Qihao's intentionally released pheromones, Song Ciming was clearly so nervous that his legs were trembling, but he still stuttered and managed to say these words.
In order to prevent a scene from happening, Su Shi held onto Song Ci's body, which was sliding down.
"Dr. Jiang is someone I know, he's not a bad person."
The soft and gentle voice of the child sounded in Jiang Qihao's ears, lifting his spirits. He withdrew his pheromones with a smile on his face and greeted the two of them.
Song Ci looked at Su Shijiu with a puzzled expression, wanting to ask him something. Unexpectedly, Su Shijiu grabbed Jiang Qihao and prepared to leave.
"I have some other matters to attend to with Dr. Jiang. Qici, why don't you go find Zhongyu to prepare for the performance? I'll talk to you about it when I come back tonight."
Before Song Ci had a chance to say anything, he had already pulled Jiang Qihao far away.
There came the sound of Song Ci's footsteps from behind. Su Shi Jiu chuckled and tightly held Jiang Qihao's hand.
