Pay Attention To Me

Chapter 49

Jiang Yao's mind filled with buzzing, he was completely and totally struck dumb.

"No way......aren't there still suppressants? Suppressants can delay the heat period."

"It's no use. What the suppressant inhibits is actually the pheromone, delaying the eruption of the pheromones. Without pheromones, how can they be delayed?"

Jiang Yao suddenly had an incredibly strong, but unclear premonition. He grabbed Yin Che by the arm, "Then y-your illness is the same?"

Yin Che didn't say a word. The look in his eyes didn't fluctuate with emotion at all, as if his eyes were pools of stagnant water.

Jiang Yao felt like he was about to collapse just looking at him, but then he heard him say, "It's different."

His heart, which had been suspended high in the air, finally fell heavily back down to earth.

"Ah, that's right, you're a beta, you don't have a heat period, what am I thinking......"

"Yeah, what are you thinking." Yin Che turned around and continued to walk forward.

The setting sun stretched long black shadows out behind them, like a bottomless abyss splitting the ground.

A thing like death, at their age, was too distant a concept.

Although Jiang Yao had threatened other people with things like "I'll beat you to death", in actuality, he'd never really had a concrete idea of that word.

Up until this moment, when he'd learned that a person he'd just met, a real living person, might only have a few months left. Suddenly, he felt a sense of reality in his mind.

Turns out this word all along was so close to me.

"There must be a cure, right?" he asked, unwilling to give up.

I just can't believe that a young man like Xu Shou, who's in the prime of his young life, just because he has no pheromones, his entire being will cease to exist.

"For the congenital illness, there are no cases of a cure domestically or abroad."

Jiang Yao said in a daze, "How can that be......"

"However, there are cases of self-recovery from the illness."

"Self-recovery?"

"Well, as long as there are still glands, the pheromones actually still exist, it's just that the channel for them isn't open, that's all. If there's a pheromone-compatible alpha who can give him strong stimulation during the heat, it might be able to help him open those pheromone channels.

The president took leave from school in order to take care of his body and to properly prepare for his heat's arrival."

"What's the success rate?"

"At present, the doctor has assessed about 80%."

Jiang Yao heaved a huge sigh of relief, "You should've said so sooner, you scared me to death. I thought it was a terminal illness."

"Congenital pheromone deficiency is a relatively easy illness to treat, because the condition isn't complicated and it just needs alpha stimulation as the treatment." Yin Che's voice lowered, until he was almost murmuring, "But if it's the acquired disease, it's very complicated and the success rate is also very low......"

"That's great then, what a relief." Jiang Yao put his hands together as if praying, "From today on, I'll pray for the president, for blessings and protection to keep him safe and sound."

"If praying worked, why would we even need doctors?"

"It's better to believe that something is real." Jiang Yao didn't know which god to offer a prayer to. "In the future, let's just not make handicraft during the club class, instead let's put a few statues of Buddha to worship the Bodhisattva."
