The next morning, Lin You was discharged from the hospital.
On the first day of regaining freedom, he once again felt the warmth of the sun shining upon the earth. Lin You was overwhelmed with joy and couldn’t help but hop around on the steps of the hospital.
However, he only got to hop a few times when his brother remorsefully told him something.
Upon hearing the news of her youngest son’s discharge, Mrs. Jiang Nian was delighted and especially sent her greetings from a thousand miles away. She instructed her second son to make sure her youngest son attended his classes. If he heads over now, he can still catch the afternoon classes.
As soon as Lin You heard this, his face fell, expressing disbelief.
“Her son was finally released from prison, yet she doesn’t care about my mental health and instead worries about sending me to school?” Lin You’s voice raised by eight decibels. “Is she still a loving mother?!”
Lin Siyu ended the call and looked at his younger brother with sympathy. “Our mother has never been a loving mother. Just give up. It was like this when I was in my third year too. It was already a blessing that you didn’t have to go to tutoring classes during the National Day break.”
“But I’m only in my second year of high school!” Lin You protested.
“As long as you’re in high school, you have no rights. Accept your fate,” Lin Siyu replied.
Lin You instantly wilted and got into Lu Beiming’s car reluctantly.
Lu Qingyan followed him into the car, and Lin You leaned onto him, sighing, unaware that Lu Qingyan’s body had stiffened.
For the following two hours of the car ride, Lu Qingyan’s body remained stiff.
When they arrived at the school, it was indeed as Mrs. Jiang Nian had said: they made it just in time for the afternoon classes.
Lu Qingyan and Lin You ate lunch outside the school before stepping into the classroom. It was just after lunch break, and the class was still lively chatting away, cherishing the last ten minutes of the break before the class.
When Lu Qingyan and Lin You entered, the class fell silent for a moment.
The scene was strikingly similar to the day when Lin You returned to school after he presented.

“Well, you see, the thing is… as an alpha, I’m not really comfortable saying it myself,” Bai Lu pushed her deskmate, Shao An, and said, “You say it, you’re a beta.”
Shao An glared at her. “What’s with the gender discrimination?”
Turning to face Lin You’s questioning gaze, Shao An shrank his neck timidly and said quietly, “It’s nothing much, but basically, our whole grade knows that you were isolated because you were in heat.”
Lin You almost spat out his water.
He silently sat down at his desk, not even bothering to pick up his book anymore. His eyes scanned his surroundings with a threatening look, “The heck? I haven’t even arrived at school yet, someone explain to me, how come the gossip got here faster than me.”
Some people around him suddenly found the sky interesting while others suddenly wanted to whistle. In any case, no one looked at Lin You.
Lin You knocked his fingers on the desk. “Tell me.”
Finally, Ye Nanshan was pushed forward, as he was the most resistant to being beaten among them.
Ye Nanshan wore a bitter expression. “I don’t know who said it first. Some students from other classes overheard Cai Xiaoguo calling your family to ask about the situation, and they accidentally heard it… when the news reached our class, the whole grade probably all knew.”
Lin You: “…”
No wonder he and Lu Qingyan were being constantly stared at when they walked in.
“Lin-ge, you know right, initially there were people who refused to believe you were an omega. But now, they all believe it. You’re now on the school’s dream omega lover candidate list. Last year, you were still on the dream beta lover list.” Bai Lu fearlessly added from the front.
Lin You almost crushed the pen in his hand.
“What kind of crappy lists are these? Why didn’t I know about it?” Lin You frowned.
Bai Lu turned on her phone, opened the school’s gossip forum, and handed it to Lin You. “It’s obvious that you don’t care about the JinNan High people’s leisure life. Look, every year JinNan High School selects their dream omega lover, dream alpha lover, and dream beta lover. Although the names are a bit tacky, they represent the people’s beauty pageant. By the way, last year Lu-ge was the most popular beta, and you ranked third.”
“Then who was in second place?” Lin You asked, subconsciously following the gossip.
“He Xiaoyan from Class 7 upstairs. The really pretty one who dances ballet,” Bai Lu glanced at Lin You, “But I believe that this year, you’ll definitely be the number one on the omega list.”
Lin You raised an eyebrow. “Why?!”
Bai Lu sized Lin You up and down seriously and assessed him for a moment, unsure whether she should tell him that after his heat cycle, he seems to have become… more enchanting?
However, after careful consideration, she decided that her own little life was more important and swallowed those words into her stomach.
“Because you have a commanding presence, and you’re completely different from those delicate omegas,” she reluctantly gave a thumbs up, going against her true feelings.
Hearing this, Lin You pondered for two seconds and reluctantly accepted this explanation.
Lu Qingyan, who had been listening to their foolish conversation for the entire class, finally couldn’t help but turn his head and glance at Lin You.
He noticed that Lin You actually believed it.
Lu Qingyan: “…”
The number of people who came to see Lin You, attracted by his reputation, had decreased recently. However, perhaps due to this gossip, they quietly started to increase again.
Lin You was getting annoyed, so he put up a sign by the window.
“No observing, it comes at a cost.”
Unfortunately, within ten minutes of hanging it up, Cai Xiaoguo caught him in the act.
But Cai Xiaoguo also understood the fluctuations of hormones during adolescence.
In such a monotonous school life, the flowers of the nation are all being crushed under the weight of their homework. Once a bit of gossip came along to liven things up, these withered flowers would revive on the spot, stirring deep within their souls.
So Cai Xiaoguo subtly advised the teachers from other classes, hoping they would discourage their students from harassing his students.
Holding his thermos, Cai Xiaoguo spoke with emphasis, “I know the students in my class are attractive, but it’s not their fault. We should address the issue at its root, don’t you think?”
One of the other teachers pushed up their glasses. “And how do you propose we address it at the root?”
Cai Xiaoguo smiled faintly. “I think these alphas have too much excessive energy. How about having them run ten laps around the track during PE class?”
After this incident, all the people loitering outside Year 2, Class 1 scattered like birds.
Upon hearing this, Lin You was moved to tears and felt like giving Cai Xiaoguo a commendation banner.
Cai Xiaoguo patted Lin You’s head. “If you stop scaring me with your rollercoaster-like grades, it would be enough of a commendation for me.”
However, Cai Xiaoguo could only control those on the school grounds, he couldn’t control what happened outside of it.
A week after returning to school, Lin You and Lu Qingyan were stopped in broad daylight by an alpha from another school.
Lin You looked up, it was even a familiar face.
Wasn’t this the person who fought with him and Lu Qingyan during their first year?
“What was his name again?” Lin You pondered but couldn’t recall.
On the other hand, Lu Qingyan remembered this face very vividly.
“He’s from Bei High, Xiao Ping,” Lu Qingyan said.
