Chapter 2

Yu Lan slept very deeply.

It had been a long time since he had slept so comfortably, without nightmares and woke up after sleeping.

When he woke up, he was still at a bit of a loss.

The surroundings were too quiet. Underneath him was a soft mattress that had never been there before and the quilt was pulled up to his chin. There was a faint, good-smelling alpha pheromone lingering around him.

Yu Lan remembered what happened before, suddenly sat up and lifted the quilt.

There was only him in the room?

At the same time the thought came to him, he also heard a slight conversation coming from outside the door.

Yu Lan glanced at the clothes on the bedside table-

A few minutes later, the room’s door was opened and a beautiful black-haired young man was standing in the doorway wearing home clothes.

His black hair was a little messed up from sleeping, his dark blue eyes seemed like a gentle sea under a clear sky, his face was small and his skin was fair, but it was also to the point where there was little to no blood, so he was obviously not in a very healthy state.

When Song Ze first saw the young man, he was a little stunned.

Yu was a surname exclusive to the Silver Moon Clan.

The Silver Moon Clan specialised in producing beauties, but this youth in front of him was definitely one of the best among them.

Shao Mingyu was standing by the window, turned around and saw that person, twisting the cigarette in his hand.

Yu Lan’s heart skipped a beat when he noticed the man standing by the window, vaguely remembering how the man had coaxed him before he passed out…

Yu Lan had lived for 22 years and had never been treated so gently before. At this moment, he was a little embarrassed and lowered his head.

Lin Yu watched from the side, rooster noises sounding inside his heart. Look, look, he’s shy! That’s right! With a person like the big boss, whoever he coaxes won’t lose a single drop of blood1!

Song Ze was the first to stand up and smiled at Yu Lan. “Hello, I’m a police officer.”

He was also accompanied by a police robot partner.

Yu Lan thought of something, suddenly raised his head, his tone tense as he asked, “Have they been arrested?”

“Mn, rest assured, the couple are in our police aircraft right now and I’ll be returning to the Category A2 Star domain with them later,” Song Ze paused, looking at the youth’s appearance and involuntarily softened. “Is it okay if we sit down and talk right now?”

Yu Lan looked at the man.

Shao Mingyu said, “Just talk in here, come sit down, Lin Yu and I will go out.”

Afterwards, Song Ze asked and Yu Lan answered and during the process, Yu Lan always felt that it wasn’t real.

The couple was finally arrested.

So he’s safe? Free? Never to return to that dark, cold cage again?

Song Ze noticed that the youth across from him was a little absent-minded, but understood.

After all, it’d been sixteen years. Sixteen whole years…

When he received the call from Shao Mingyu, he was surprised and had mixed feelings.

It took them sixteen years to find him, or should he say, thank goodness they still find each other in their lifetime…right?

“…The director of the orphanage made a deal with them and would often give them the children from the institution. I was sent out when I was six.” Yu Lan answered Song Ze’s question.

Song Ze’s pen stopped and he looked at Yu Lan.

Yu Lan wondered, “What’s wrong?”

“…” Song Ze smiled and said, “Nothing, go on.”

Yu Lan gradually became bolder and offered more information. For example, that couple had an accomplice. The couple was delivering Yu Lan today, but their accomplice was guarding the remaining omegas and those omegas were of the same origin as Yu Lan. Another was that Yu Lan didn’t know who he was going to be sold to, only the couple knew.

At the end of the half-hour question and answer session, a doctor came in, gave Yu Lan a brief examination, drew a tube of blood. Song Ze closed his notebook and walked out with Yu Lan and as he opened the door, he said, “So the next question is what arrangements you’ll make after this.”

The man standing on one side of the hallway turned around.

Yu Lan straightened his back and subconsciously said, “I don’t want to go back to the orphanage.”

The man frowned and asked, “Orphanage?”

Song Ze scratched his cheek and said, “We’ll check the orphanages you mentioned, you can rest assured that we won’t send you to other orphanages either.”

Yu Lan breathed a sigh of relief.

He had no home and had no desire to return to the nightmarish orphanage in the same year.

He had no money and had never been in contact with the outside world since he was a child, so he had no idea what the outside world was like.

Yu Lan was confused about his future, but either way, it was better than being sold to some unknown man, right?

He had a little hope but was also a little perturbed.

Song Ze looked at Shao Mingyu and hesitated. “As for where you are going…”

The man standing beside him looked at Song Ze, then at Yu Lan and suddenly said, “He’s coming with me.”

Yu Lan froze.

Song Ze wasn’t surprised by this result, but after looking at his notebook, he helplessly smiled and asked, “Are you sure?”

“Certain.” Shao Mingyu was indifferent.

Yu Lan counted his fingers, subconsciously grabbed his pants and asked in a small voice, “If you rescued all those omegas I was talking about… what would you do with them?”

Song Ze told the truth. “If they are all orphans according to what you said, then we’ll arrange for them to get social assistance first.”

“Then I…” Yu Lan looked at the man.

So why does he get such special treatment?

The man was currently also looking at him.

“That, don’t get me wrong,” explained Song Ze with a smile, “You’re an adult, you’re free to go with whoever you want, the right is in your hands. It’s just-”

After confirming a serious look towards Shao Mingyu, Song Ze said, “He’s my friend and as his friends, I can guarantee that he is not a bad person. Following him back will definitely be better than staying at the rescue agency.”

Maybe it was the reassurance before he passed out or maybe it was the fact that when he was desperate, the man held him in his arms. Yu Lan showed no resistance to this strange man. Even because of the pheromones that seemed to wrap around him as if to protect him, this man gave him a subtle sense of security.

But no matter how uninformed Yu Lan was, he knew something was wrong with this…

Shao Mingyu looked at him and said, “I won’t touch you, come back with me.”

Yu Lan’s heart skipped a beat and his ears reddened.

He, he didn’t think that this man would do anything to him…

Song Ze sighed and said, “You can trust him. I’m in charge of this case and I’ll come to his place for you for any follow-ups in the future. Just treat it as fate and if you’re willing to trust us, he will take good care of you afterwards.”

Yu Lan opened his mouth, a little hesitant.

But no one there urged him on.

After a moment, Yu Lan whispered, “Okay.”

Before leaving, the organiser of the financial conference, CEO Jiang, even knocked on the door to apologize to Shao Mingyu.

But thanks to him being big-hearted, he let the traffickers on. If the other party said that they lost their pass, he would believe them. Yu Lan may not have been able to escape from the hands of the couple today- of course, the employees he hired were powerful, but to not even find the murder weapons carried by the traffickers was a bit exaggerated.

Yu Lan also specifically came out and bowed in thanks to CEO Jiang.

When CEO Jiang saw Yu Lan, his eyes were stuck. In the next second, he felt the faint gaze of the man on the side and quickly left the scene with a dry laugh.

Lin Yu looked at Yu Lan’s thin back, thinking, this little omega was good-looking and very beautiful, no wonder CEO Jiang’s eyes were stuck.

Half an hour later, Yu Lan was ignorantly taken on board a plane and prepared to leave with Shao Mingyu.

Before saying goodbye to them, Song Ze reminded Shao Mingyu. “Keep an eye on him.”

The man glanced at him.

Song Ze, “Children are too easily deceived.”

They didn’t even require effort and the little kid ignorantly agreed to go with the man.

When they looked up, they saw the dark-haired youth, still wearing home clothes, perched at the second-floor window of the plane, eyeing them.

Song Ze’s heart softened and said to Shao Mingyu, “It was hard to get him back, take good care of him.”

“I will.” The man’s voice was low.

“He’ll be identified later, but you’ve also realised, right? He’s not saying the same things about the past that you once told me. Why are you still so sure it’s him?” Song Ze originally thought that Shao Mingyu would change his mind when he found out something was wrong, but he didn’t expect the man to be so determined, so he couldn’t help but be curious. “Besides the name, what else makes you so sure?”

Shao Mingyu looked up into the dark blue eyes of the person on the second floor.

Those were the most beautiful pair of eyes in the world.

Yu Lan was curious about the outside world.

For twenty-two years, he was chained in the yard at the orphanage and in a cage at the hands of the traffickers.

Towards the outside world, he imagined all sorts of things.

Mr Shao said very little- Yu Lan only learned his name after he agreed to go with the man- but he hardly restrained him.

Yu Lan was arranged to be at a small table by the window on the second floor and drank a bowl of porridge.

The man sat on the couch a short distance away reading the electronic newspaper, lifted his eyes when he noticed his gaze, and asked him, “DOo you want to go to bed for a while?”

Yu Lan shook his head and asked, “Can I just stay here?”

Shao Mingyu paused and replied, “Yes.”

Yu Lan then turned back and sat cross-legged by the window. This was the first time he was in the mood to observe the sparkling universe outside.

He took off his slippers, his white feet still bore some scars from the past.

Shao Mingyu’s gaze swept over those small feet and said to Lin Yu, “Bring a pair of socks up.”

Yu Lan had stayed by the window and the man had sat on a couch not far away. The two had spent the two-hour journey in silence.

After landing on a planet, they switched to a car.

As the car sped down the road, Yu Lan unblinkingly watched the scenery, observing everything in amazement.

Beside him, the man finished his call, put down his phone and looked at him.

It was already very dark when they arrived at Mr Shao’s house.

It was a villa and was huge. Yu Lan tilted his head up and was dumbfounded.

When the housekeeper came out, he was very shocked to see a pretty little omega in home clothes. T-t-t-their sir had brought an omega home?!

Shao Mingyu was silent for a moment and told him, “He’ll be staying here for a while.”

The housekeeper secretly confirmed, “…No need to put him in your bedroom?”

“…” Shao Mingyu, “No need.”

The housekeeper wrung his wrist.

Yu Lan, who knew nothing, saw the housekeeper, came back to his senses, walked over and stood behind Shao Mingyu, politely greeting him, “Hello.”

A beautiful child that was also polite, how could he not be likeable and he was also so obedient.

Even though he seemed to be from the Silver Moon Clan and the Silver Moon Clan was in a somewhat delicate situation, the housekeeper still had a fatherly love rising in his heart and kindly greeted Yu Lan and took him into the house.

There was also an aunty in the villa. After Shao Mingyu put down his suit jacket, he said to her, “Cook porridge for a few days to nourish his stomach, then change something else afterwards.”

Aunty Jiang was a little surprised to receive Shao Mingyu’s instructions for the first time and quickly looked at the youth not far away and nodded, “Alright.”

“Sir, then his room will be arranged to the largest room on the third floor, right next to your room, is that okay?” The housekeeper confirmed with Shao Mingyu.

Yu Lan also blankly looked at him.

Shao Mingyu nodded.

Then he met Yu Lan’s eyes, hesitated and quietly asked, “Can you sleep by yourself at night?”

Yu Lan blushed and desperately nodded.

He wasn’t a child anymore…
