[Full-time Zhou Ye] Shenghua

Chapter 19 Hunter and Prey

The man who spoke stood at the door, tall and straight like a ruler, with gray temples, not angry but mighty, he looked like an Alpha with military experience.

"Dad", "Dad", the two brothers who were talking stiffly stopped talking immediately, standing where they should stand, and sitting where they should sit.

"Ye Dong, don't stand still at the door, the dumplings are going to be cold." Another female voice rang out, and the man frowned and stepped into the door, while the woman who followed him went straight to the tea table and started to put the bowl, cloth and chopsticks, less than 20 square meters The single ward suddenly became crowded.

"You still know how to stop others. Did you think about the consequences when you jumped into the pit before?" Father Ye sat down on the horse opposite Ye Xiu, with a stern voice: "As soon as people call you, you go. The enemy's nest is as easy as talking about it? Personal heroism!"

The Ye family brothers have been treated as Alphas for militarized management since they were young, and they have long been accustomed to Ye's father's three-day big training and two-day small training.During the isolation period before, Ye's father had found an old comrade in arms specifically for this case. Ye Xiu was not stupid, and he understood that the commander at home was not really angry, but that he was getting old and couldn't stand being scared. Couldn't help but hit the cane twice.

"Father, I have a sense of propriety. Didn't I tell Ye Qiu to guarantee the bottom line?" Ye Xiu straightened his back slightly, folded his hands in front of him, and sat in the most upright posture ever: "And the nights are long and dreamy, since morning and night will If you are approached, you might as well take the initiative to attack."

Ye Qiu obediently served tea to the two leaders, then sat back in his original position and began to peel the second apple.Father Ye scanned his elder son several times, and seeing that he was at least in good spirits, he snorted, and said, "The case has been formally filed, and the investigation is underway. The relevant ones may be retried."

This case has been suffering from insufficient evidence before, and it is reasonable to have a major breakthrough in the process of obtaining all the stolen goods this time, but the last sentence is something Ye Xiu did not expect: "You mean—the Yu Xiulin case may be retried?! The court started Is there still a complaint? Is there an advocate? Who? When?"

The retrial of criminal cases is different from civil cases. There are many people who have failed to appeal for ten years, even if the parties initiate it, let alone initiate it from within the court.Ye Xiu tried his best to meet Yu Xiulin a few times before, but was rejected by Omega, who didn't like oil and salt. He didn't expect that this invitation to catch a fish would meet the return of the dead. The dark road ahead finally showed a thread bright.

It is said that there is nothing, because the court itself initiated an official face-slapping behavior, which is tantamount to letting the judge personally break the balance he has painstakingly maintained in front of the public.Ye Xiu hadn't thought about this path at all before—in front of the gigantic state machine, he was already a gnawing tree, and Yu Xiulin flatly rejected the appeal, making it almost impossible to initiate a retrial.

Seeing that the eldest son, who had been lying in the isolation ward for half a month, suddenly entered the state of talking about work and his eyes were shining, the fire in Ye's heart flared up again, and he put the teacup on the table: "Look at it!" It’s only possible that you are in a hurry now! You still have time to worry about other Omega, so take care of yourself first!”

Ye Qiu, who was watching by the side, trembled imperceptibly, and most of the apple peel, which had accumulated more than ten centimeters, broke off in one fell swoop.He was about to start over again after the surviving period, when there was a crisp sound of chopsticks hitting the edge of the bowl from the side of the coffee table: "Ye Dong! The child just met, can you talk well!"

"Paji", the two peels successfully joined forces in the trash can.

Being named and criticized twice within 5 minutes, the man snorted heavily, picked up his teacup and strode out the door.

"Mom, don't pour out my share of dumplings. I'll go downstairs to take a stroll with Dad." Ye Qiu stuffed both the knife and the apple into Ye Xiu's hand, winked at the latter, got up and chased after him.

The room returned to the original state of two people, but this time it became two Omega.Mother Ye turned on the air humidifier, took out the dumplings one by one from the insulated bucket amidst the buzzing sound, and asked in a gentle voice, "How many does Ah Xiu want to eat? Can nine be okay? This is mutton. You missed it on New Year's Eve. Now you have to make up for it.”

Li Ma, who is in charge of cooking at home, will not come back to work until the first lunar month. Ye Mu is usually busy in the hospital, and only half a year a year can show her hands in the kitchen.Ye’s annual New Year’s Eve repertoire is to watch Ye’s mother make dumplings—the dough kneaded with eggs is soft and moist, cut into small pieces, roll them out with a rolling pin, spread the skin on your hands, and pick up the meat filling with the tip of chopsticks Putting it in the palm of your hand, a dumpling with a big belly, thin skin and warm ears will go into the pot.

Ye Xiu felt sore when he thought of the fragmented New Year's Eve dinner, and hurriedly got out of bed and went to his mother's side: "Mom made more dumplings, definitely eat more!"

Mother Ye laughed even more when she heard the words, pushed the steaming bowl in front of the eldest son, turned around and found a chair to sit down on: "Don't worry, eat slowly. Hey, my Axiu has grown up too, maybe next year he will have a meal." I went to another place to eat dumplings."

The tips of Omega's ears blushed, who were buried in the dumplings: "It's out of the question. Don't listen to Ye Qiu's nonsense."

Mother Ye rubbed the top of her eldest son's hair affectionately, and said softly, "Your father missed the point just now, I can hear you, do you think talking about this situation with others will push them into the fire pit? The child called ...Xiao Zhou, right? Have you asked him what he thinks?"

"Zhou Zekai." Ye Xiu suddenly showed great interest in poking dumplings, and his whole face was almost buried in heat: "He doesn't know about it yet. He is four years younger than me, originally... because of the information Sucai made it like this now, don't ask me, I have a sense of proportion."

"So now that you have no pheromone for the time being, you just want to break up with someone? It's not like what we, Mr. Ye, would do. Since you chose to agree, you must have liked it enough to include people in your big plans. Is it in the small plan?" Ye Mu pushed the bottle at her side, and the jade bracelet on her wrist was accidentally brought to the edge of the table, making another crisp sound: "You just poured soy sauce, this is vinegar."

"Thank you mom. There's no way to plan this matter." Ye Xiu finished pouring the vinegar and tried to pick up the dumplings, but found that the dough was too slippery and the chopsticks couldn't hold it firmly. "I haven't figured it out until now. Will I post it when I get pheromones? I just see him wandering around like that every day, it’s very hard—just try, and I didn’t talk about getting married. He’s a young man with a bright future, and I didn’t expect it from the beginning He will hang on my tree."

Speaking of this, he subconsciously touched the glands on the back of his neck, paused and continued: "The current situation does not mean that we should break up, but let him reconsider. Mom, you don't know, this child is too To be honest, I keep everything in my heart, I told him that it is inappropriate to stop at any time, but it is estimated that he will still be silent when he comes back."

Mother Ye nodded, took a sip of tea, and asked, "How do you know you can't go on?"

Ye Xiu tried all nine dumplings, but still failed to pick up one, so he simply put down his chopsticks and confessed seriously: "We became acquainted because of pheromones, he is addicted to me, I treat him as an inhibitor. Information Su is so unreliable, although there is really nothing to be picky about him now... But there are too many uncontrollable factors in marriage, and I probably have to drag him down in this situation, so forget it."

"Actually, you are still reluctant." Mother Ye has been in the hospital for consultations all year round, and she sees problems quite sharply: "Because I am addicted to the status quo, I refuse any changes that may bring risks. But what is the difference between you and a hooligan? And the information Pheromone matching is necessary in the first place, your father and I saw each other because of pheromones."

Ye Xiu didn't say a word, he ate half of the dumplings in the bowl before replying in a muffled voice: "But six out of ten cases I usually take are—oh, forget it, it's not nice to say it, Mom, after all these years you Haven't you been tired from arguing with Dad? Ye Qiu and I are sometimes tired from listening to it."

Mother Ye saw that he was thinking seriously, and was about to get up to tidy up the other two sets of bowls and chopsticks. Hearing this, she was happy: "So it's because we left you with a psychological shadow? Why, do you think I have endured it all these years?" Come here? You two are so old, why should I abuse myself like this! Your dad is just a little irritable and not good at expressing. Look at this jade bracelet, haven’t you seen me take it off? After giving birth to you, he accidentally caught the cold. He was still working on the southwestern border at that time. He heard that I was not in the right condition on the phone, so he asked for leave overnight and rushed back. Before leaving, he asked someone to buy it. , Covering my chest for more than 30 hours, I couldn’t open my eyes when I entered the door, and I still remember to put it on my hand before going to sleep.”

"I still remember the temperature on the bracelet at that time... that's how life is, it's like the layer of velvet in the clothes, it's kind of considerate and warm, you can't see it outside, you can only know it when you wear it yourself."

This misunderstanding was a bit big, Ye Xiu opened his mouth awkwardly to say something, when he suddenly heard a sound behind him, it turned out that Ye Qiu led the old man back from a walk.

"Oh, I'm just hungry, so I'd rather make the dumplings made by my mother!" Ye Qiu picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and put his hand into Ye Xiu's bowl: "Brother, I just blocked a beta customer who wanted to come and see you, thank you , just share half of the dumplings with me!"

"What kind of beta customer, you just think that the talent in other people's bowls is good!"

"Eat as soon as you eat, what does it look like to fight around!"

……

A small ray of afternoon sunlight penetrated into the house from the window, the snow outside the window melted, everything recovered, and it was spring again.

The snow in China stopped after the first month of the month, but the United States was very unfriendly until the end of February in the Gregorian calendar, and the coldness lasted for another half a month.Zhou Zekai stayed in Canada until the third day of the Lunar New Year, and then flew back to the United States to continue discussing the project. Every day was like a war, day and night turned upside down, and Ye Xiu had no phone calls for nearly a month, only occasionally sending and receiving two text messages.

Since they established their relationship, they have been together less often, but there has never been a time when they basically broke all contact like this.It's okay when Zhou Zekai is busy and has no time to think, but when he is alone in the dead of night, the longing is like poison soaked into the crevices of the bones, which makes people itch and cannot sleep because of the pain.Even if he managed to fall asleep, the dream kept repeating orange trees, orange blossoms, docks and bamboo forests, forcing Alpha to face up to his situation with nowhere to escape.

The young manager of Samsara has never broken his love since he was a child, and his relationship experience is not completely blank, but he still thinks it is better to be alone after going around.Before meeting Ye Xiu, he lived a highly regular and fulfilling life. He worked hard every day, worked out, and occasionally planned a few ball games or trips with his peers, making his single life look enviable and high-end.But from the moment the police station heard the Omega pheromone, everything was messed up: the pheromone unceremoniously pushed him into an extremely self-reliant Omega, and under the frenzy of desire, he watched himself sinking deeper and deeper.

Of course, Zhou Zekai once doubted his own feelings that came without warning but overwhelming, but the reason why emotion can stand in harmony with reason lies in its inherent irrationality.And as a manager who holds a lot of power at a young age, he has always been good at knowing the current affairs-if you can't break free, then try your best to pursue it.

As it turned out, he was a good enough hunter.Others lamented that Alpha was so active in this relationship that it could be considered humble, but only Alpha knew clearly: this is a hunt with sincerity as bait, and he is the one who ultimately controls the overall situation.Ye Xiu seems to be indifferent, but he is gentle and tolerant. Although he is too honest and tolerant, he has a lot of calculations in his heart: he is sure that the former will not refuse outright, so he has made up his mind from the beginning. The route of retreating to advance and nibbling step by step - in the final analysis, he is more gambler than Ye Xiu, and he is also more daring to spend. When encountering a narrow road, of course the brave is better.

Now that the prey is in the cage, the next thing is to tame it.He believes that he has enough patience.

But these repeated dreams made him start to suspect: this hunt may have started long ago, and it is far from over, and he may not have the advantage as expected.

At the beginning of March, the city where the Samsara project team was stationed was still full of wind and snow. Except for a few airlines, most of the airlines had flights from time to time. The official explanation was that the ground was wet and slippery, the wind was strong and the visibility was low, so it was not safe to take off forcibly.At the same time, the project officially entered the critical stage, and the limited rest time of all staff was further reduced. As the person in charge, Zhou Zekai had to be on call 24 hours a day.But Ye Xiu's estrus period is in mid-March, and there is still a long time before the ban on inhibitors is lifted, so Alpha still managed to book a ticket back home on the night of the 14th after several weeks of high-intensity continuous rotation.

On the morning of the 14th, Du Ming flew to the project site as a temporary replacement. More than ten hours of fear left Beta with almost half his life left.Feeling guilty, Zhou Zekai took the initiative to drive to the airport to pick him up.Du Ming came out to see him after picking up his luggage, but he was a little surprised: "President Zhou, are you still here? God Ye has been discharged from the hospital?"

"Discharged?" Zhou Zekai frowned.

Du Ming knew that he had said something wrong again when he saw his face, so he could only carefully choose his words: "I ran into Ye Shen's family members in the garden of the city hospital more than half a month ago. At that time, I even misidentified them. I heard them say that God Ye has to live in the courtyard for a while..."

Zhou Zekai took out his mobile phone to call Ye Xiu, and it was expected that "the person you dialed has turned off the phone". Alpha pondered for a moment, then called Jiang Botao who was staying in the country: "Jiang, two things, one is to find reports about the sale of Omega in the past two months, and the other is to pick up the plane ahead of time, I'm trying to change the ticket now... "

Fortunately, the local weather conditions were good on the 14th, and Zhou Zekai was lucky enough to change his booking to an additional flight that opened two hours later.After finishing the arrangement vigorously, he turned around and saw that Du Ming was still parked where he was, so he motioned for others to follow him to the parking lot.

"Mr. Zhou, are you going to fly back immediately? You can tell me the parking space and I will drive by myself..."

"I'll take the luggage, you navigate back." Alpha raised his hand and glanced at the phone screen, his eyes dimmed - still no missed calls or unread text messages.

And above their heads, above layers of steel and iron mud, new clouds are accumulating.

The spring is cold and cold, and the young are killed by the cold.
