⸺This was truly a weighty surprise.
Xiao Yiheng had once thought that nothing in this world could make him forget his manners, but the boy who fell in his arms a moment ago was more than enough to shake his world.
The sun’s afterglow disappeared right at this moment. In the dark alley, their bodies were sticking closely to one another. They could clearly feel each other’s warmth and their hot breaths were brushing against the other person’s cheeks.
Because of the force of impact of the boy jumping down, Xiao Yiheng was caught off guard and his body swayed slightly.
The blonde boy thought that they would fall to the ground so his eyes widened in alarm and his hands clung onto Xiao Yiheng’s shoulders out of reflex. He cried out, “Hey, aren’t you an alpha? Carry laozi firmly! ⸺Wait, you’re Xiao Yiheng?”
He seemed to have been shocked as he promptly let go and sprang out of Xiao Yiheng’s arms.
He landed deftly on his feet. Xiao Yiheng didn’t even have time to react before the warmth in his embrace disappeared.
Xiao Yiheng subconsciously reached out his hand, probably because he wanted to support him, but the boy was very nimble so he steadied himself shortly after landing. Xiao Yiheng’s outstretched hand halted midair and then he pulled it back, pretending as if nothing had happened.
The sky was already completely dark.
The street lamps from outside the alley spilt some light into the dark alley. The two boys who were around the same age sized up each other under the dim light.
Unlike Xiao Yiheng, the blonde boy’s school uniform had not been worn properly. His shirt was fully unzipped. The white fabric of his uniform was covered with doodles. The black, tight-fitting T-shirt that was printed with the arrogant pronoun ‘zhen’, proclaiming himself as king.
They are like the north and south poles of a magnet. One was disciplined and aloof, like a flower that can only be seen and not be touched; undisciplined and extremely unbridled.
After just a glance, Xiao Yiheng already associated him with the word ‘troublesome’.
Xiao Yiheng asked, “Do you know me?” He had heard the boy calling him by his name.
The blond boy frowned and answered him with a question, “You don’t know me?”
Xiao Yiheng: “……”
Xiao Yiheng: “Should I know you?”
The blond boy disputed, “Shouldn’t you know me?!”
Listening to his tone, it was as if it would be a very grave offense if Xiao Yiheng didn’t lower his head and kiss his shoes promptly after seeing him.
In a flash, a name popped up in Xiao Yiheng’s mind.
The tip of his tongue lightly touched his palate as he uttered the sweet and tangy name on his lips, “Are you Li Cheng?”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
“Humph!”
Li Cheng snorted. I knew it. How could someone not have heard of the renowned school tyrant Li Cheng?
Xiao Yiheng: “……”
He didn’t recognize Li Cheng at first sight because of the preconception he had after seeing the bizarrely charming sketches of Li Cheng. He truly couldn’t comprehend how Li Cheng’s classmates could draw him so horribly when Li Cheng obviously had a dazzling appearance. If it was him who drew Li Cheng… No, it’s impossible for him to draw others.
Li Cheng recognised Xiao Yiheng at first sight because of the sketches he had seen of him. Li Cheng previously thought that the sketches had beautified Xiao Yiheng too much, but after seeing Xiao Yiheng in person, he realised that it was actually the opposite.
A brush was unable to fully portray Xiao Yiheng. The drawings were only able to capture a tenth of his appearance.
But… It was absolutely impossible for Li Cheng to admit that Xiao Yiheng was good-looking.
Li Cheng raised his head, folded his arms behind his back, and spoke like an old uncle choosing tomatoes as he strolled through a market, “Xiao Yiheng…Tsk tsk tsk. I think your appearance is only so-so. You’re just an ordinary person with two eyes and a mouth. Why was the junior so head over heels for you?”
He completely lied through his teeth.
Xiao Yiheng didn’t get angry and indifferently replied, “If I had an eye and two mouths, the junior wouldn’t have been head over heels for me. Rather, she would be scared out of her wits.”
“……” Li Cheng was at a loss for words. If it wasn’t nearly time for their guild’s instance, he would have certainly continued arguing with Xiao Yiheng. He chose to strategically retreat, “You’re smart-mouthed, huh. Forget it, I’m not wasting time with you.”
Li Cheng turned around to leave but Xiao Yiheng stopped him: “Where are you going?”
Li Cheng vigilantly looked at him, “Why should I tell you where I’m going?” He had heard that Xiao Yiheng was the teachers’ fair-haired boy. Xiao Yiheng wouldn’t report me after I leave, right?
“You don’t need to tell me,” Xiao Yiheng pointed at the wall and coldly reminded him, “But… I’ve done you a favour yet you’re leaving without even saying a thank you?”
Li Cheng laughed out loudly as he raised his eyebrows provocatively. Baring his canine teeth, he chided, “Why must I thank you? I didn’t ask you to appear under the wall, so what does it have to do with me?”
Xiao Yiheng: “……”
Could it be that this matter is going to embarrass me forever?
……
As Li Cheng had been held up for quite a while, when he arrived at the internet cafe, his lil’ brothers had already reserved the best computer for him and they were waiting for him to lead everyone in the decisive battle.
Li Cheng looked around and asked with disapproval, “Why did y’all choose the lounge?”
Huang Yelun fawningly came forward and said, “Li ge, there were people in the private room today so we had no choice but to play here in the lounge.”
The lounge was in a much worse condition than the private room. The air conditioner that had not been cleaned for a long time was emitting a mouldy smell. Someone was eating malatang a row across from them. There was also a middle-aged man wearing slippers who was scratching his feet while voice-chatting. The atmosphere in the lounge seemed gloomy and the keyboards were covered with oil, looking extremely dirty.
Despite Li Cheng being heedless of many things, there were still times that he would inadvertently show his omega side.
Li Cheng frowned as he disgustedly looked at the filthy computer table before reluctantly sitting down in front of the computer. Huang Yelun hurriedly helped him wipe the keyboard and mouse using his school uniform’s sleeves. In the end, the more he wiped, the dirtier it became.
Li Cheng pushed him away and impatiently said, “Scram. If you can’t get the private room next time, you should castrate yourself.”
Huang Yelun had a woebegone expression as he cried out, “Wait, Li ge. I’ll quickly go to the supermarket next door to buy wet tissues!”
Li Cheng grumpily replied, “Can this be wiped clean with wet tissues? You might as well buy a keyboard.”
Huang Yelun: “For you to use?”
Li Cheng: “For you to kneel!”
Huang Yelun had yet to answer when three hooligans sitting in front of them laughed.
“Woah, where did this pampered omega come from? He came to an internet cafe to play games yet he still dared to be choosy?” One of the hooligans threw a glance at Li Cheng’s direction. He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, thinking that this action looked wickedly charming when in fact it was creepy and disgusting. He continued saying, “His body is still reeking of alpha pheromone. Whose bed did he just get out of?”
Li Cheng: “……”
The surroundings became quiet in an instant and a peculiar expression appeared on the omega’s sharp and beautiful face: like a smile yet not a smile, like a scowl yet not a scowl, mixed with what seemed to be curiosity and surprise.
Li Cheng tilted his head to the side as he asked the lil’ brother beside him, “I didn’t mishear him, did I? Is he making fun of me?”
Huang Yelun’s whole body was trembling as he summoned his courage to reply, “Uh… Seems like it. He was making fun of you, big bro.”
All of Li Cheng’s lil’ brothers seemed to have numerous screaming chickens in their mind as they thought, Which novice village did this wandering monster come from? Not knowing his own abilities, he actually came over and sent himself to his own death?
Li Cheng halted and asked, “Do I really smell of alpha pheromones?”
Huang Yelun nodded stiffly, “Y-yes. Actually, big bro, we noticed it as soon as you came in.”
However, as his lil’ brothers, they had mastered how to turn a blind eye. They knew what to say and what not to say. He didn’t hate living so why would he take the initiative to tell Li Cheng about this matter?
Li Cheng got a cold after his swimming competition. Although his fever had gone down, he still had a stuffy nose and couldn’t smell anything.
He pulled the collar of his school uniform close to his nose and sniffed hard. Then, a biting cold scent of cedarwood in the middle of an ice field assaulted his senses. He paused, immediately associating the scent to Xiao Yiheng.
The smell was truly like him.
Like a lion cub, Li Cheng’s hackles were raised.
Xiao Yiheng, that asshole, definitely left his pheromone scent on me on purpose!
He didn’t expect that he would smell of Xiao Yiheng’s pheromones after being briefly in close proximity with one another. He swaggered all the way from school to the internet cafe while everyone could smell his body reeking of pheromone.
Just how many people misunderstood me?! Where did my reputation as the school tyrant go?!
The more Li Cheng thought about it, the angrier he became. He badly wanted to rush back right at this moment to teach Xiao Yiheng a lesson.
Seeing that he wanted to leave, the three hooligans mistook it for him being afraid.
They laughed without restraint, “Huhuhu, this pampered lil’ omega wants to escape~”
“Wants to go back to ask husband to take revenge~~”
“He’s so frightened that he wants to be comforted by his husband’s pheromones~”
“I can comfort you~ But wife, you must first let your husband have a taste of your pheromone~”
“What’s the scent of baby’s pheromones, hmm? Let me guess. It should smell like sweet chocolate~”
The lil’ brothers who had been standing behind Li Cheng took a step back every time they said something.
When they had finished talking drivel, the lil’ brothers had already retreated to the corner of the internet cafe. There was only Li Cheng standing in the spacious centre of the internet cafe’s lounge, facing the group of hooligans alone.
The hooligans laughingly pointed at the group of ‘deserters’ and derided, “Cutie, look at your ‘friends’. They left you on your own and had run away.”
Li Cheng beamingly asked, “Oh, is that so?”
The hooligan spoke once again, “An omega must have an omega’s appearance! Although you have slightly darker skin and are slightly taller, it doesn’t matter. Considering your beautiful face, our brothers will surely love you dearly!”
As Li Cheng listened to their babbling, he unhurriedly took off his jacket and threw it onto the seat beside him.
The black t-shirt tightly clung to his muscular body. On his chest, the word ‘Zhen’ had been printed in white ink, revealing the youth’s frivolity.
His blonde hair lay in wisps across his forehead. He took out a bunny hair tie and easily tied his hair up into a ‘rocket’ hairstyle. His actions caused the hooligans to ridicule him even more.
Li Cheng pretended not to hear them.
He lightly rotated his wrist and cracked his knuckles, giving out light popping sounds.
The boy raised his gaze towards them with a bright smile on his face⸺
⸺”Come, you good-for-nothings. Who’ll go first?”
……
The beta lil’ brothers who were hiding in the corner of the Internet cafe tremblingly hugged each other: QAQ Li ge, please stop smiling! Someone’s bound to die if you continue smiling that way!
That encounter was certainly unlucky hahaha. Poor Xiao Yiheng, no one is gonna forget that phrase in the foreseeable future.

Li Cheng laughed out loudly as he raised his eyebrows provocatively. Baring his canine teeth, he chided, “Why must I thank you? I didn’t ask you to appear under the wall, so what does it have to do with me?”
