Befriending the Most Powerful PersonCh40.1 - I’ve found you

If he didn’t still have his task to do, Shao Ci would have gone straight for the throat to silence him.

Edwin said, “Yes, I heard everything.” UDxus2

After his shock, Edwin went calm. He finally understood why Shao Ci had always hidden his identity. It was because Shao Ci was actually an omega. He couldn’t be too flamboyant or he would draw all kinds of troubles.

After he understood, Edwin admired Shao Ci even more. As an omega, he could actually make it so far. He was even more amazing than an alpha.

Only someone like his idol could achieve a level that even alphas couldn’t attain as an omega.

As a fanboy, he had to be biased towards his idol no matter what. Lkgws2

Edwin immediately said, “No matter what happens, my way of thinking won’t change. I absolutely won’t say anything about this.”

Shao Ci sighed. He said, “The reason I never told you this isn’t because I didn’t trust you. It’s just that if this gets out it’ll be big trouble… Do you really not care? An alpha being the one to woo an omega… It’s just ridiculous, isn’t it?”

In this world, there were a ton of alphas who looked down on omegas. They thought omegas could only stay at home, taking care of children… For some people, as soon as they knew their genders, even if they were close before, their attitudes would change.

Of course, Shao Ci didn’t have any prior experience with something like that. Everything he said was just based on his impression of the original novel. After all, in the original novel, omegas were really just pretty, useless flower vases.

“No, you are you. Even if you’re an omega, my desire to woo you hasn’t changed at all.” As though he was afraid Shao Ci wouldn’t believe him, he got down on one knee, looking into Shao Ci’s eyes. “Gender or anything like that wouldn’t affect anything. My intentions will never change.”

The first time Shao Ci saw Edwin get on one knee, he was scared silly, but now he felt a bit used to it. But the previous two times were both when Edwin didn’t know his gender. Now that he knew his real gender, it was obvious what Edwin thought about the situation.

When he saw Shao Ci hesitate, Edwin bit his lip. Internally, he knew that if he answered wrong, Shao Ci might not have the same faith in him anymore. His mind flew into a panic. He grabbed Shao Ci’s hand.

“I’m willing to sign a contract. If I say anything about this, I’ll never fight with a mecha again… If I do this, might you be able to believe me?” TRsS1P

Shao Ci was stunned. After all, Edwin had such a high status. Shao Ci himself had suspected that he had simply been humiliating Edwin… But Edwin was even willing to make such a concession. If Shao Ci had encountered a situation like this, he would have walked away without looking back.

Compared to Shao Ci, even if he used to like mechas, they were incredibly boring now… If his opponent wasn’t Shao Ci, even if he could continue piloting mechas, he couldn’t feel happy at all.

“I believe you.” Shao Ci inhaled deeply. “Let’s pretend nothing happened at all and just go about our lives normally when we go back to school.”

In any case, even if Shao Ci didn’t believe him, he couldn’t really beat Edwin to death… It was really a hopeless situation.

“Alright.” Edwin’s eyes gleamed. He said, “Then I’ll continue preparing snacks for you.” CNVJdU

Shao Ci: “…!” Hey, is it really okay to have such wifely virtue!

And so things were resolved as such. After all, education was very important. That afternoon, the two of them got on the airship, returning to the capital planet. On their trip, there weren’t any accidents like what had happened on the way out of the capital.

Shao Ci felt he had been a bit mean. He just tossed a Zerg in heat outside. If that person was really crazy in heat, he might have even been seized by police. Btq0xF

Still, Shao Ci hadn’t heard anything about a youth assaulting someone on an airship. It should be all fine.

Soon, Shao Ci and Edwin separated. Edwin’s worry was obvious, but he didn’t say anything.

When Shao Ci went back to Ji Zhaoyun’s house, he discovered that Ji Zhaoyuan had already left. Shao Ci let out a breath of relief. He wasn’t really used to a character like Ji Zhaoyuan. He always felt like he was being seen through.

Although he hadn’t done anything to feel guilty about, either. jNhldA

Ji Zhaoyun was reclining on the sofa, his black hair like a crow’s feathers, his almond-shaped eyes fixed on Shao Ci. His elegant facial features were full of arrogance.

Shao Ci sighed emotionally. Despite his terrible temper, Ji Zhaoyun was extremely attractive.

“You were gone for a long time. Weren’t you just going home for a bit? There was nothing big happening.” Ji Zhaoyun was fuming. “Do you know how much trouble you caused me being away these days?”

Wasn’t the only thing missing someone to feed you at lunch! Can’t you get used to eating by yourself! lBL6KG

“It was all my fault, I’m truly sorry.” Shao Ci knew how to deal with Ji Zhaoyun. Anyway, he could think about whether it was really his fault after he apologized… And with the system’s plug-in, Shao Ci’s apology sounded extremely sincere.

“Hmph.” As expected, Ji Zhaoyun didn’t spit out anymore venom. He just said, “I’ve been training hard recently, I think I’ve gotten much stronger. Do you think if I participate in the upcoming mecha competition I can make it to the finals?”

The mecha competition in reality was much more of a hassle than the mecha competition in the virtual world. Registering alone had many procedures, and it was impossible to completely hide identities like on the virtual net.

Similarly, getting hurt in the competition was a real injury. Of course, these competitions were more prestigious than competitions on the virtual net. dfyYvw

Obviously, Ji Zhaoyun wasn’t asking to hear Shao Ci’s opinion. He was looking to hear praise first.

Even more falsely, Shao Ci praised, “I’m sure that with your abilities you’ll definitely be able to make it to the finals. Nobody else can compete with you!”

“Well, of course.” Ji Zhaoyun looked satisfied. Suddenly, he added, “Say, aren’t you curious about why I’m participating in the mecha competition?”

“Huh?” Shao Ci was confused. “You need some other reason to participate?” 5Cgo0X

Though he was very clear about why Ji Zhaoyun wanted to participate, he definitely wouldn’t act like he knew →_→

“It’s got nothing to do with you. Go away.” Ji Zhaoyun looked annoyed.

Shao Ci: “…” Why the heck did Ji Zhaoyun seem even more bothersome to deal with? Was it because he had fallen in love… Well, it didn’t have anything to do with him.

Shao Ci turned away, making to head up the stairs. Tonight was Prince Latiao’s first match in the finals. He still had to get ready properly. Avf3iJ

“Wait.” Ji Zhaoyun suddenly spoke again. “I’m going to go train today, so don’t do anything, just go with me. You look too weak to stand a gust of wind. If you don’t train properly, I’ll be embarrassed to take you to school.”

Shao Ci: “Oh, um…” Wait, he had an important competition tonight! And Ji Zhaoyun wasn’t watching, but was instead going to train? Shao Ci had the feeling that he might be scheming something bad.

“Don’t tell me that you have something tonight and you can’t come?” Ji Zhaoyun looked casual.

“Oh, um, I want to watch the mecha competition finals. Isn’t Prince Latiao fighting tonight?” Shao Ci didn’t think there was anything worth covering up, so he didn’t beat around the bush. “Isn’t he the contestant you’re cheering for? Aren’t you going to watch tonight?” GdPQhY

“Now that I think about it, is there something about Prince Latiao that you know and I don’t know?” Ji Zhaoyun said. “After all, I don’t really like interacting with people. I’m not very clear about what happens on the virtual net.”

I already know you don’t have friends…

Shao Ci bolstered his shamelessness and boasted, “Oh, if it’s about that, I’m not too clear about it either, I just think he’s amazing. He must be a formidable alpha in reality.”

“Mm, exactly. You’re right.” Ji Zhaoyun thought back to what his brother had said, feeling like he had read into it too much. XjoaBY

Prince Latiao was an omega, and he could tell that Shao Ci was someone who hadn’t met very many omegas before… As for Edwin, after he confessed online and became the president of Prince Latiao’s fanclub, he must have met Shao Ci in the fanclub.

Ji Zhaoyun relaxed completely, waving a hand casually. “Then we won’t train tonight. Go ahead and leave.”

Shao Ci: “!” Although he didn’t know why, he felt like he had missed a very big problem by a hair.
