Chapter 096: Coming Home


When he took the red pillbox from Caesar's hand, Lin Yuan suddenly felt that the packaging of this pillbox was very familiar, it seems like it is a little similar to the medicine Ling Feng gave him? Taking out the red case from inside the medicine chest and comparing it in suspicion, it really ended up being the same medicine.


Ling Feng also wrote a little note on the manual inside the medicine chest—


“Xiao Yuan, an Omega’s chance of getting pregnant during estrus will be very high. If you don’t want a child, taking this drug within three days after estrus can prevent pregnancy. You are too young now, carefully think it over before making a decision.”


Because for many Omegas, their estrus period comes suddenly and the contraception step cannot be done in time beforehand. The probability of pregnancy after being completely marked during estrus is very high. If you do not use contraception, then it would be unavoidable for an Omega to give birth to a child in one year’s time. Their body would assuredly be unable to manage it like that.


Experts at Imperial Central Hospital have specially developed these postcoital oral contraceptives, which can be used after estrus to prevent an Omega pregnancy. This drug is kept on hand in many Alpha homes in the Empire. In case their Omega's estrus comes at an unsuitable time, they can use this method to prevent Omega pregnancy when the two of them do not want a child.


Lin Yuan took a closer look at the instructions for use, took out a red pill from the box, put it in his mouth, and then swallowed it down with lukewarm water.


Only after taking the medicine did Lin Yuan raise his head to look at Caesar—


Although Caesar always wore a smile on his face and was even the one to propose the "not have this child" decision, Lin Yuan could tell that Caesar’s mood was obviously a little depressed.


Alphas that do not want children for the first estrus are exceedingly few and far in between, especially the royal family subculture that places a heavy emphasis on lineage inheritance. Practically every prince of the imperial household had produced an heir when they marked their Omega for the first time. The child that is born, no matter whether it is a prince or princess, is written into the royal family tree as the grand prince/princess and is then personally named by the king himself. There is even a celebratory banquet held at the Imperial Palace…


Yet, Caesar still voluntarily proposed: not have children the first time.


It must have been difficult for him to make this decision, right?


If he were any other Omega, perhaps long ago, he would have become Caesar’s prince consort with peace of mind and stayed in the Imperial Palace for him to bear and raise children.


But, that was impossible for Lin Yuan. He had never received an education of Omega-relevant knowledge before and he was even less mentally prepared to properly have children. He didn't want to put all of his plans to ruin because of an unexpected pregnancy.


This kind of postcoital contraception method is undoubtedly the best. So long as he doesn't get pregnant, all of those hard problems will be disposed of.


Looking at Caesar’s feigned nonchalance, Lin Yuan couldn’t help asking: “Caesar, you aren't really willing, are you? You… want to have a child?”


Caesar smiled and stroked Lin Yuan’s hair, “That's not it. You are only eighteen years old, there's no pressure at all for a child. Don’t think too much about it, go on and do the things you'd like to do.”


Lin Yuan hung his head down and said quietly: “I still haven't fully mentally prepared myself as of now. Give me some time… okay?”


Caesar said: “Okay, I will wait for you.”


Past all expectations, Caesar did not hesitate in the slightest to say “I will wait for you”, such a simple sentence is full of trust and acceptance.


The rims of Lin Yuan’s eyes abruptly grew hot and he threw himself into Caesar’s embrace, tightly wrapping his arms around Caesar.


—This is his Alpha.


—Willing to unconditionally wait for him.


—Willing to give him the greatest freedom, acceptance, and support.


After Lin Yuan took the pill, he immediately sent a message to Ling Feng telling him not to worry.


Ling Feng, who has been constantly restless at eta Ursae Majoris Starfield, finally relinquished his worries. Ling Yu is not here, Xiao Yuan is just like his own flesh and blood son. Xiao Yuan’s current age and physical condition are not suitable for pregnancy at all. Taking the postcoital contraception could be considered to have minimized the impact of the unexpected estrus to where it was inconsequential.


All the while Snow, on the other hand, widened his eyes in shock at the name of the medicine that appeared on his web search—


The name of the drug he had never heard of was actually an oral contraceptive?


Dad had specially rushed over to the space station to deliver medicine. Lin Yuan and Caesar did not open the cabin door for three days and three nights and then he suddenly had a fever afterward. So, it turned out to be…


Estrus?


Thinking that his brother had been marked by Caesar, Snow’s mood suddenly became a bit complicated.


Lin Yuan and Caesar finally reached Planet Rennes at 8 o’clock that night.


These days, Planet Rennes has been snowing and the air temperature was as low as 18 degrees below zero. As a result, Lin Yuan specifically urged his mother and sister not to come to the space station to welcome him. After being persuaded by Lin Yuan, they decided to make a table full of rich dishes to welcome Lin Yuan with dinner at home.


(TN: In Celcius, I believe. A bit lower than 0 degrees in Fahrenheit.)


Planet Rennes is located at the edge of the Cigar Galaxy. The planet has a large number of mineral reserves. Most of the troops stationed here are military personnel responsible for supervising the mining of minerals and workers of mineral companies. There are few native residents on this planet.


On this desolate planet, there are no small-scale suspension vehicles available for rent to the public. The two could only take a public suspension vehicle from the space station to the town where he lived. After they got off near the mining company, they walked to his home on foot.


Caesar had said that the purpose of this trip to Planet Rennes was to see the snow. Since it was a trip, they originally should have gone to a hotel for lodging. However, Lin Yuan seemed to have forgotten this bit and took Caesar to his home from beginning to end. Naturally, Caesar would not take the initiative to remind him and kept next to Lin Yuan with a thick face.


The frigid Planet Rennes was practically covered with pure white snow, and the tall and imposing trees that were extremely cold-resistant were planted on either side of the street, there was a sense of desolation as far as the eye could see.


Compared to the bustle and warmth of the Capital Star, it really does look like two different worlds.


The pedestrians on the street are sparse and many small shops on the roadside are closed due to the bitter cold. At a bit after eight o’clock in the evening, the sky was already dark and the street lights were all lit up. Under the glow of the pale yellow street lights, the snowflakes fluttering in the air appeared to be stained with a golden halo.


The two walked side by side on the sidewalk, the snowflakes crunched under their feet and a biting cold wind blew in their face, mingling together with the large number of snowflakes falling straight on their necks.


Having never come to such a cold place before, Caesar’s nose has always been sensitive and being unable to adapt to this climate, he could not help but loudly sneeze.


Lin Yuan immediately turned his head and asked: “Are you really cold, Caesar?”


The wind was so strong that Caesar couldn't clearly hear what he was saying, so he bent over and moved his ear closer to the seams of his lips, asking in a low voice: “What did you say?”


Lin Yuan looked at Caesar’s ears that had been frozen red. That red color resembled frozen meat taken from the freezer. It was clear his ears were irritated by the freezing air and were already quickly losing feeling.


Lin Yuan couldn’t help but take out his warm hand from inside his pocket, gently warm his ear, and say: “It snows all year round here where I live. It’s not like the Capital Star. You must be unacclimated your first time coming here then?”


As he spoke, he took his other hand out and with both hands and covered Caesar’s ears, gently covering Caesar's ears with the palm of his hands to warm them up.


“Have they turned into popsicles? Seeing your ears look so red like this, I would have bought you a hat before setting off had I known…”


Caesar froze for a moment before responding, Xiao Yuan was actually using his hands to warm his ears.


The shock and excitement in his heart made Caesar speechless for quite a while—


Is his Omega worried about him? He was worried that he would turn into a popsicle, so he used his hands to cover his frosty red ears?


The warmth radiating from the palms of Lin Yuan’s hands quickly spread through his whole body following along the outlines of his ears, making it so that Caesar’s heart suddenly became nice and warm— the feeling of being cared for by the person he likes was so nice… Xiao Yuan cared about him, it's truly too much of a blessing…


Realizing that Caesar had taken the initiative to move closer, Lin Yuan stood up on his tippy toes and continued to cover his frozen red ears with both hands while jokingly saying: “You've never been to Planet Rennes before. Unlike me who has grown up here and has been acclimatized to it from a young age, you're not accustomed to the climate over here, making it very easy to freeze out in open-air. If I let our prince, His Highness, go back with frostbite, the hearts of His Majesty and the Queen would definitely ache to death.


Xiao Yuan’s smiling eyes were beautifully bent into crescent shapes under the street lights, which made one's heart rate quicken for a bit.


Caesar resisted the urge to fiercely kiss him and played along with Lin Yuan’s words, and as if playing a joke, he asked in a whisper: “If I froze into a popsicle, wouldn't your heart ache?”


Lin Yuan: “…………”


His face went slightly red and he wasn't too sure whether it was because it was too cold or if it was embarrassment. Lin Yuan pretended to calmly retrieve his hands and changed the topic: “It’s too cold outside, let’s get going, my house is just around the corner.”


He shoved his hands back into his warm pockets soon after speaking and turned towards the direction of his home.


Caesar gave a small smile and immediately followed after Lin Yuan’s footsteps.


Lin Yuan had grown up on Planet Rennes. He was accustomed to this frigid climate. When he disembarked the spacecraft, he found a thick overcoat and hat from his suitcase. Wearing them made it nice and warm and he didn't think it was too cold either. Caesar, however, had underestimated the coldness here and the little prince who did not take the proper precautions against the cold trekked the journey in the cold wind, his ears were almost frozen enough to fall off and Lin Yuan had worried that he would be frozen into a popsicle and could not help but encase his ears with the warmth of his hands.


Looking back now, Lin Yuan also feels it is strange— why did my heart ache to see Caesar suffering in the cold just now?


He was stupid enough to rise to his tippy toes and cover his ears with his hands…


After arriving at his home, Lin Yuan turned and aimed a glance, just in time for his sight to meet with Caesar's smile.


At the moment when their pair eyes were diametrically opposed, Lin Yuan’s heartbeat suddenly seemed to stall for half a beat. He quickly looked away and rang the doorbell.


After a short pause, the door was opened.


The one who had opened the door was Lin Yao. The Beta girl wore a full set of casual clothes and had her hair up in a ponytail. Her sleeves were rolled up and she looked very well put together. When she saw Lin Yuan, she immediately rushed over and gave Lin Yuan a bear hug, “Xiao Yuan, you've come back at long last!”


Lin Yuan took off his hat and said with a smile: “Big Sis'.”


Lin Yao rubbed her little brother’s head before releasing him, looked around, and then asked in confusion: “Oh, that's right, what about Hobby? Hadn't he secretly stowed himself away in your suitcase and went with you? He wasn't discovered by the school, was he?”


Seeing his sister’s worried appearance, Lin Yuan quickly explained: “He wasn't, Hobby is actually quite safe. I left him with a classmate for the time being.”


In fact, Lin Yao is particularly fond of rubbing Hobby’s head and tying its hair into all kinds of braided pigtails… Hobby was really scared of being tormented by her. Thus, when Lin Yuan was going back home, Hobby firmly resolved himself not to tag-along. At that time, he had only managed to escape from the clutches of Sister Lin Yao with great difficulties. He couldn't return this time. In case his owner left it at home in the care of Big Sister Lin Yao, wouldn’t dying be better than living?


Hobby’s attitude was very determined. Lin Yuan was under pressure for lack of a better option and could only temporarily leave him in Po Military Starfield.


Fortunately, Bertha is the daughter of Instructor Irene. She lives in a military academy and has a gentle personality. She also really likes to keep pets. Lin Yuan gave her Hobby to take care of, for the time being, intending to take that round lump of fur back upon returning to school after vacation ended.


Hearing that the “doggie” was not in any danger, Lin Yao let go of her worries and didn’t ask anymore. She raised her head to look at the tall guy standing beside her little brother, saying in wonder: “And this is?” Lin Yao eyed the suitcase in Caesar’s hand, “A classmate who came together with you?”


Before Lin Yuan and Caesar had time to answer, Mrs. Lin’s gentle voice came from the direction of the kitchen: “Has Xiao Yuan come back? Why don’t you come inside to talk? It’s so cold outside, you'll catch a cold if you stand at the door.”


Lin Yao hurriedly said: “Oh yeah, don't talk here, quickly come in!”


She then swiftly found clean slippers for the two of them after she spoke.


The two changed their shoes at the door and walked into the house together. Lin Yuan put their suitcases in his bedroom and Lin Yao rushed to cordially pour tea for the two.


Mrs. Lin came out from the kitchen and saw the handsome boy sitting next to her son, then paused for a bit before asking: “Xiao Yuan, this is?”


Lin Yuan had originally wanted to say: This is my roommate, he's passing through Planet Rennes to see the snowy scenery.


However, when he met Caesar’s gaze with those kinds of words, he suddenly couldn’t say anything.


Not long ago, the two had just finished marking each other completely. Lin Yuan clearly remembers every I love you Caesar declared in earnest each time they embraced… Afterward, Caesar even thoughtfully said not to have a child and bought contraceptive pills of his own accord. When he isn't well mentally prepared, he helps him dispose of all his worries for the future, and says without hesitation and a resolve of steel: I will wait for you.


—How can he continue to use “friends” to define the identity of such a person?


—He has traveled thousands of miles to Planet Rennes, how could he let him suffer this kind of grievance?


Lin Yuan thought of this, finally hesitated no longer, scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment: “Mom, he is… he is my Alpha, his name is Caesar.”


Caesar: “…”


Mom: “…”


Lin Yao: “…”


My Alpha, in just this one simple sentence, contains infinite profound meanings.


Usually, only partners who have marked each other use the adjective “my Alpha”. The prefix “my” proves that the other party belongs to them, and the optimal way for an Alpha and an Omega to belong to one another is precisely a complete mark.


Lin Yuan was so straightforward that he just said it without thinking about it. The moment where he had completely marked him, Caesar had said: “I am yours”. When introducing him to others, Lin Yuan automatically used “my”.


Unexpectedly, after saying this, the other three suddenly went strangely silent.


Lin Yuan looked at Caesar, his mother, and his sister… What's going on with the three of you? Could I have said something wrong?


The author has something to say: Happy Valentine’s Day and Lantern Festival everyone! !! Returned late since I was dragged out to window-shop~~


Don’t hate Xiao Yuan ma, asking for some encouragement and positive energy!


I don’t think I wrote an inconsistent plot point ah. Not wanting to have children at the age of 18 while a first-year in college is a normal way of thinking. Taking contraceptives is the best way if you don't want a child. Changing it out with another method: Caesar and Lin Yuan wore a condom during sex… Do you feel cruel ~~~


This is just reasonable contraception. The child hadn’t been conceived…


There will be buns, but not now, the cute buns will happily come to this world when the two fathers really love each other and are ready to welcome the babies ^ _ ^
