Chapter 144 The Only Obsession
Wen Shumu looked flustered: "He's just lying here? Doesn't he need an energy pod? Does he need to be hospitalized and given injections?"
Banks patiently replied, "It's fine here. The Marshal has been in the energy pod for several days already, he really doesn't need to stay any longer. An ordinary person would definitely need to be hospitalized, but the Marshal's physical condition is excellent, he can rest at home. If he needs injections, I'll come over every day."
He added Wen Shumu as a friend on the terminal: "If there's anything you need, Marshal, just contact me directly via the terminal."
After seeing Banks off, Wen Shumu returned to the bedside, pulled up a chair, sat down, and stared at the Alpha lying quietly on the bed, motionless.
Allison went in and out several times, and seeing that Wen Shumu was still in the same position, he stepped forward and said, "Madam, would you like some late-night snacks?"
Wen Shumu still looked at Ling Suyu: "No need, I'm not hungry."
Allison sighed, glanced at the time, and saw it was already past eleven o'clock at night.
"Madam, you should get some rest." He gestured suggestively to the bed. "Even if you lie down, you'll still be keeping the Marshal company."
Wen Shumu's tone faltered: "I'm afraid of hurting my brother; he has many injuries."
When I was helping Ling Suyu change his clothes just now, I noticed that he had various abrasions of all sizes on his body, and there was even a serious penetrating wound in his abdomen.
Banks said the injury has improved considerably since then.
Wen Shumu couldn't imagine how serious it must have been before.
Allison waved his hand and said, "Look, isn't this the 2.8-meter luxury bed I specially ordered coming in handy? You can lie down first, and when you get sleepy, you can move to the side. I guarantee you won't bump into the Marshal even if you turn over a few times."
After listening, Wen Shumu found it quite reasonable.
He asked Allison to look after Ling Suyu for a while, then quickly took a shower, and after seeing Allison off, he climbed into bed.
Drawn by the cool scent of melting snow, Wen Shumu moved to Ling Suyu's side, lay on the pillow, and gazed at his extremely handsome face.
As if he couldn't get enough of looking at him, he propped himself up on his elbows and gently kissed the sleeping Alpha's forehead and cheeks.
The rain outside the window gradually subsided, and the wind became gentler, as if nature itself wanted to provide the two people inside with a quiet environment for rest.

Wen Shumu suddenly opened his eyes.
He seemed to have a very long dream, in which his brother came back, and he excitedly kissed Ling Suyu, even making him faint.
Wen Shumu felt dizzy, and slowly closed his eyes, trying to continue this beautiful dream.
But the cool fragrance lingering in his nose was too real, and the pillow under his neck was a bit hard, making it difficult for him to fall asleep.
Wen Shumu's mind gradually cleared, and he suddenly realized that it all seemed... not to be a dream!
He opened his eyes again and turned his head to look at the side where Ling Suyu usually lay.
The empty bed that awaited him was no longer there; his gaze met directly into those deep blue eyes.
Seeing that Wen Shumu had finally woken up, the Alpha smiled gently and softly: "Baby."
Wen Shumu pursed his lips and turned his body around, only to find that he was resting his head on Ling Suyu's arm.
He subconsciously rubbed his face twice, as if he remembered something, his expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly sat up.
"Brother, I... I didn't touch your wound, did I?"
He had been staring at Ling Suyu ever since he lay down last night, and he didn't even remember when he fell asleep, let alone keeping a safe distance as Allison had suggested.
Ling Suyu smiled faintly and said, "No, don't worry, I'm all better now."
Wen Shumu frowned and said, "I've seen your injury; it hasn't healed."
Through the blanket, he traced the wound on Ling Suyu's abdomen, following his memory: "There's a terrible wound here, how... how did you get it?"
Ling Suyu said casually, "I was touched by the Beast King's claw."
Seeing Wen Shumu's displeased expression, he reached out and grasped the Omega's hand that was gesturing to the wound, his fingers slowly caressing the delicate skin.
"This is a flaw I deliberately created. Otherwise, it would never catch up with me and might stop chasing me altogether." Ling Suyu pressed Wen Shumu's hand against his face and gently kissed his palm.
Wen Shumu's voice trembled slightly: "This is too dangerous."
"At that time, we were at the edge of the black hole's radius. Although we were some distance apart, the Beast King was very vigilant and had already sensed something was wrong. I had to find a way; I couldn't let all our efforts go to waste."
When talking about these thrilling experiences, Ling Suyu could still laugh, or perhaps his laughter was because he had finally returned to his beloved Omega's side.
"The Ice Rift blocked most of the attacks, and the damage is still bearable for me, but... the Ice Rift is too badly damaged, and I can't even send out communications." Thinking of the mecha that had been with him for many years, Ling Suyu lowered his eyes slightly, "I only managed to make an emergency landing on a nearby desolate planet before the Ice Rift stopped operating."
Wen Shumu imagined the scene and his eyes widened in shock, which made Ling Suyu pull him into her arms.
Resting his head on Ling Suyu's arm again, Wen Shumu obediently found a spot that allowed him to lean against Ling Suyu without touching his abdominal wound, and asked, "So you lived there by yourself for more than ten days?"
He looked worried: "There's definitely nothing there, and you're so badly injured..."
Ling Suyu chuckled and asked, "Xiao Mu, where did I grow up?"
"...Desolate Star".
"So this environment is not unfamiliar to me. I found some herbs, and there was also emergency equipment for treating wounds on the ice cracks. I may not live for long, but I can survive for more than ten days."
Ling Suyu glossed over the hardships in just a few words.
Only he knew that as he lay on the desolate wilderness, with an endless black sky above him, only one obsession remained in his heart: he had to go back alive, because Xiao Mu was still waiting for him.
Wen Shumu stared straight at him, his gaze sweeping over his thin, pointed chin and increasingly deep-set features. After a long while, he said, "Before you fainted, you said the people who found you didn't seem to be from the Legion. How did you figure that out?"
"The person who saved me wasn't wearing a military uniform. And when I saw the corps commanders today, their expressions of shock didn't seem fake."
A name suddenly flashed through Wen Shumu's mind.
He asked tentatively, "You only saw that he was wearing black; are there any other distinguishing features?"
Ling Suyu tried to recall for a moment, then frowned slightly: "He must have been wearing a mask; I can't remember his face."
At that time, his vision was blurred, his consciousness was not clear, and his memory was like a fog, making it impossible to see the person in the fog.
Wen Shumu understood that the person who found Ling Suyu was most likely Hei Ying.
Ling Suyu said, "On the way to the banquet, Qi Lian, the commander of the Second Legion, told me that the planet I landed on was not marked on the map, which is why they missed it."
Wen Shumu murmured, "Hei Ying did mention this situation."
Upon hearing this name, which had absolutely no connection to Wen Shumu, Ling Suyu's gaze instantly sharpened: "Hei Ying? How do you know him? Have you met him?"
His smile faded, and he looked at Wen Shumu with a slightly flustered expression: "Did he hurt you?"
Wen Shumu shook his head with a complicated expression, got up and moved to the bedside, opened the drawer in the bedside table, took out a gold card, moved back and handed the card to Ling Suyu.
"He gave me pocket money."
Ling Suyu: ? ? ?
