Luo Zhiyu and Xiao Yan, both presenting in the middle of a gang fight, are carried to the hospital one after the other. One becomes an omega, and one becomes an alpha. ... more>>

Probably because the two were in the middle of an intense brawl at the time of presenting, their pheromone compatibility is an historically unprecedented 0%.

Other than sometimes fighting and getting on bad terms every time they meet, these two people put together are definitely safe — to the point that when there are not enough hotel rooms on a school trip, teachers put them in the same room.

Teachers: Anyone has the potential to date in high school, but these two definitely have no chance!

The principal catches an alpha and an omega walking on the side path in the evening, supposedly dating —

Students: There is no way, those two are definitely innocent!

Everyone, including Luo Zhiyu himself, thinks that there is no way between them.

And then one day, Luo Zhiyu gets permanently marked by Xiao Yan.

Luo Zhiyu: ? No, the pheromones say we are not compatible, we must believe in science.

Xiao Yan pulls out the new compatibility report, dropping it in front of Luo Zhiyu: Enough nonsense, go steal your hukou identification so we can get married.

Transfer student, a head honcho in his previous school • Damn badass cool guy, Shou (Zhai Yao)... more>>

Top-notch big shot in his curent school • Reserved, cunning, and upfront, Gong (Shen Heng)

#This is a story of when one school boss meets another school boss…

Zhai Yao transferred from one rubbish school to another rubbish school, and on the very first day, he sent shockwaves through his new class, leaving his classmates utterly bewildered.

With a pale and delicate countenance and a slender figure, Zhai Yao appeared anything but the rumoured fighter who could take on ten opponents at once. Yet, the very next moment after entering the classroom, he confidently strolled to the back row, kicked a desk in the corner, and dropped his backpack on it.

The male student, who had been reading with lowered eyes, lifted his head and looked up with an indifferent expression. “Need something?” Zhai Yao glanced at the name on his book, knocked on his desk twice, and said, “Shen Xing (沈行), right? …Move aside.”

He remained utterly oblivious to the ominous hush around him—

Very well, the new student had just arrived, and on his very first day, he had already clashed with the school’s big shot.

The big shot sneered, rising to his feet. With a casual flick of his hand, he sent Zhai Yao’s backpack sailing into the rubbish bin. He corrected him, “‘Heng (珩)’.”

–

Zhai Yao and Shen Heng became desk mates.

Zhai Yao felt that his new desk mate was both devious and pretentious. Not only was he ruthless in fights, but he also always carried a book in his hands. As fate would have it, their academic standings left them ranked side by side at the bottom-most. To put it bluntly, he was nothing more than an overbearing king of pretence.

It wasn’t until one day, by a twist of fate, Zhai Yao ended up visiting Shen Heng’s home and discovered a wall decorated with certificates and awards.

Shen Heng accompanied his senile elderly grandpa. He patiently and tirelessly answered the old man’s repetitive questions while revealing his strong yet slender arms, preparing a meal consisting of three dishes and a soup.

He cast a cold glance at Zhai Yao. “Come and have dinner.”

Zhai Yao chuckled and approached, narrowing his eyes. “Tsk, you’re quite a homemaker, huh.”

Shen Heng gazed at Zhai Yao’s exposed fair neck, his eyes lingering for a moment before he averted his gaze. His earlobes betrayed a subtle blush.

–

Zhai Yao once thought that Shen Heng was a bit of a pitiful soul, implicated by the hardships of life, from being an all-around academic genius to falling into a delinquent.

To the extent that, when Shen Heng pinned him against the wall in the stairwell and even locked the door behind them, Zhai Yao still maintained a light-hearted demeanour, joking with a mindset of rescuing a wayward youth, “Want to kiss me? Wait until you break into the top 100.”

Shen Heng’s breath hitched ever so slightly, his gaze deepening with a mysterious intensity. “I’ll just get the top rank instead. Would that be enough to bed you?”

Gu Jia Nian failed the college entrance exam and went to her grandmother’s house in the countryside for summer vacation.... more>>

She accidentally entered a villa covered in creeping plants and inhabited by a recluse known by the villagers as someone who never left their house and avoided the light.

Children even secretly called him a vampire behind his back.

As the vacation came to an end, she did two things: discussing with her parents about retaking the exam and confessing her feelings to him.

One succeeded, the other failed.

Two years later, Gu Jia Nian studied diligently in the competitive Chinese literature program at a prestigious university.

In a literature appreciation class, the professor assigned a reading list, with nearly half of it coming from a rising star novelist—who had won major literary awards with a full-length novel and a series of medium-length novels.

Gu Jia Nian sat in the library at 2 a.m., opening the preface of that full-length novel.

It began:

“Rough start, with over a dozen interruptions due to the erosion of romantic fantasies by harsh reality. Until one day, she knocked on my door, cleared the messy Chinese hawthorn outside, and handed me a box of pastries. From then on, light poured in.”

Guide for newcomers:

The male lead falls for the female lead after she comes of age.

They get together after she retakes the exam.

Six-year age gap, Student-Teacher Relationship (SC).

Told from the perspective of Chi Yan.

After deleting the twelfth draft’s beginning, someone with no sense of timing suddenly knocked on his door.

He opened it with a frown and found a shy high school girl standing outside, with big eyes, fair skin, and a box of cookies in her hands.

Due to family obligations, he reluctantly put an end to his reclusive life and started taking care of this girl who had been crushed by the pressure of the exam.

He let her read at home.

Gave her a key.

Accompanied her to doctor appointments.

Accompanied her on shopping trips.

Comforted her, encouraged her, praised her…

The girl was polite and sensible, but she never called him “brother.”

Finally, as her summer vacation came to an end and she was about to start retaking the exam, she awkwardly confessed her feelings to him.

“…”

Chi Yan glanced at her. “Let’s talk about this after you finish your exam.”

After the second year’s exam ended, Chi Yan sent her a text on WeChat, calculating the time the results would be released.

“How did it go?”

A long while later, she replied, “Well, I did great.”

Followed by another message: “Thank you, Brother Chi Yan.”

Chi Yan, brother.

“…”

Damn, it’s easier to be deceived as you grow older. <<less

A grumpy girl and a stinky boy.
Short story for those who want some sugar.

As a good-looking Beta with a good family background, Duan Jiayan has lived a smooth sailing life for more than ten years, until he met Lu Xingci in high school.... more>>

Lu Xingci’s family situation is better than his, he is taller than him and plays basketball better than him. Needless to say, his grades are a whole tier above Duan Jiayan’s. Even his friends can’t help but occasionally praise Lu Xingci.

Most importantly, every girl that Duan Jiayan has set his sights on, all admitted that they have liked Lu Xingci for a few years already.

Since then, Duan Jiayan has never thought well of Lu Xingci, till the day he received his new medical report. He is a late-blooming Omega, and because he became an Omega this late, it came with dire consequences. Now Alphas will feel the need to beat up other people whenever they come near Duan Jiayan. He himself is now allergic to every Alpha’s pheromone, except Lu Xingci’s.

*

One night during a self-study session, Duan Jiayan became extremely uncomfortable and ended up asking Lu Xingci to bite him and leave a temporary mark.

After finishing the bite, Lu Xingci asked: “We Alphas have very bad tempers, now that I’ve bitten you, are there any rewards?”

“Why don’t you…” Duan Jiayan tentatively asked: “Be a little more generous?”

“Sure,” the other party kneeled slightly and tilted down his head, exposing his white neck: “Then you’ve to also bite back. Once you do, I won’t make a fuss anymore.”

Duan Jiayan: “…” <<less

The battle for the scholarship was like wildfire. In the entrance of the school director’s office, Lin Yujing and Shen Juan came face to face.... more>>

Lin Yujing wore a pitiful look, tears threatening to fall. “Classmate Shen, to tell you the truth, I came from the countryside. My family’s poor and I was originally called Lin Cuihua. I was the only one in our Lotus Flower Village to have been able to make it to university. If I don’t get the scholarship this time, I won’t be able to pay off the school fees. If I can’t pay off the school fees, I can only go back to my village and feed the pigs….”

Shen Juan wore a look of indifference and responded, “What a coincidence. I come from the neighboring Lotus Leaf Village. My original name’s Shen Tiezhu. I don’t only have to feed the pigs; I even have to farm.”

Lin Yujing: “…..”

The two people stared at each other for three seconds before turning around in unison and leaving.

#Mutual attack story#
#A short story to practice writing; proceed with caution#... more>>

Ruan Baobao, the little crybaby, has a secret—
He likes his deskmate Ling Yue, a fierce and cold Omega.
In Baobao's mind, Ling Yue is super good-looking and cleaner than those Alphas.
So starting at the age of 15, Baobao makes a wish every birthday, hoping that Ling Yue will suddenly transform into Alpha and match with him 100%!
On his 18th birthday, his wish came true.
Sure enough, someone was differentiated for the second time—from Omega to Alpha.
But—
It's him!
No matter what, he became the one with the strongest mental power!
Why ? ? ?

Ruan Baobao's eyes turned red as he cried: Wuwuwuwu (onomatopoeia for crying, can be translated as 'boohoo'), from my name to my looks, I am so delicate, soft, cute, and sweet, how can I be an Alpha ne! ! !

The saddest thing is that, as an Alpha, he can no longer stay in the Omega High School and be deskmates with Ling Yue!

His family no longer calls him Baobao and asks him to change his name to Ruan Yongqiang Q_Q

He doesn't want to! ! ! !

Small theater:

1. Ruan Baobao came back from the alpha training ground crying.
He raised his reddish hand to show Ling Yue: "Ling Yue, it hurts~"
Ling Yue: "I heard that you sent four alphas into the hospital?"
Ruan Baobao: "Q_Q They called me a macho guy!!!"

2. Ruan Baobao returned home after four months of training.
Ling Yue sent a message: "Will you come out to play tomorrow?"
Baobao: "Give me one week!"
Ling Yue: "?"
Baobao: "Wuwuwuwu, I'm tanned and my flesh has stiffened. I'm too embarrassed to see you!"
Ling Yue: "...come to my house tonight."
Baobao: "? ? ? ?"
