The young police officer hesitated, “Yes, yes.” Although Jiang Heng seemed to be reminiscing, the young police officer couldn’t help but sense the undertone of a threat. “So, Omega isn’t as… No, is it?”
After Jiang Heng finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair, his eyelids drooping, and the smile vanished from his lips. He never quite understood where society’s bias against Omega came from. Even those who had received higher education often held the belief that “Omegas are too weak.” Therefore, even when witnessing someone being violated in front of them, is it forbidden for an Omega to intervene?
If at that time he chose not to go in, chose to call the police, he didn’t know if the attempted rape would turn into a successful one, if he might have already ruined someone’s life. In comparison, he would rather be a reckless “superman.” The young police officer fell silent for a while, “Yes, yes.” After leaving, Jiang Heng, unusually, remained silent for a long time.
“Jiang Heng.” In his trance, Shen Huaizhi suddenly called out to him. Jiang Heng touched his pocket, suddenly feeling an urge to smoke, but he hadn’t done it in a long time. He tugged at the corner of his mouth, “What’s wrong, Captain? Are you going back? The sports meeting hasn’t ended yet.”
“Weren’t you at the broadcasting booth yesterday? Suddenly running out, what happened?” He seemed to have just remembered these things. Shen Huaizhi’s eyelids drooped, emotions unclear in his eyes. After a while, he asked, “Jiang Heng, are you afraid?” Jiang Heng didn’t know why he suddenly asked such a significant question. He hesitated for a moment, intending to say yes.
Behind them, the teacher’s voice suddenly came. “That’s right! No cheating!” The grade director praised and nodded, “Student He Ci, learn from Student Jiang Heng!” He Ci fell silent for a while, thinking that you won’t say that once Jiang Heng’s exam results are out. Nevertheless, he still obediently nodded.
Jiang Heng lifted his eyelids, pulled the corners of his mouth, and smiled, “That’s right, learn more from me.” Several students who were about to enter the classroom beside them were almost shocked by Jiang Heng’s thick-skinned attitude.
Why does someone who only sleeps during class have the audacity to say such things? “That’s right, Jiang Heng, although you were in the last exam room this time, the teacher believes that you will definitely be in the front next time! As long as you’re willing to study hard…” The grade director seemed to have found some kind of switch and went on endlessly.
Probably for mobilization, the passing students were all stopped by the grade director and began to listen to his sermon. And the object they were supposed to learn from was Jiang Heng.
After listening to nearly fifteen minutes of praise, Jiang Heng, surprisingly, felt a bit embarrassed. It was the first time in his life, being praised by a teacher in front of so many people, and making others learn from him.
With this, isn’t it a bit awkward for him to leave the exam blank again this time?
He thought for a moment and echoed, “Director, you’re absolutely right. We all need to study hard.”
The people around him: “…”
The grade director: “Quick! Learn well from Student Jiang Heng!”
“Laughing to death, learn what? Learn to sleep in class every day or skip class?” Chen Xingchi, who was also stopped outside the classroom, almost laughed out loud as soon as he entered.
Jiang Heng glanced at him, “Funny?”
Chen Xingchi immediately sat up straight, “It’s nothing, just moderately amusing.”
“Jiang Heng, how are your grades?” Hearing this question, Jiang Heng thought for a moment, “I don’t remember.” Back in Yuen Cheng, he basically left the exams blank, so he wasn’t very clear about his own abilities.
Chen Xingchi was about to say something more when he saw Shen Huaizhi entering through the back door. Immediately, he told Shen Huaizhi about the incident where the grade director caught a group of people at the class door and praised them for learning from Jiang Heng’s study attitude.
He had initially thought that Shen Huaizhi was a good listener, even though he didn’t respond, but at least he didn’t refute much. Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Shen Huaizhi paused while organizing his things, and then smiled, “It’s quite good.”
Chen Xingchi: ??? He had a vague feeling that something might have changed between these two.
Thinking back, when they entered the classroom, he seemed to smell the information pheromone of the class leader from Jiang Heng because they weren’t standing very close, and he didn’t smell it very distinctly.
After a while, the class teacher entered the room. As soon as he entered, he pointed at Jiang Heng’s position and instructed, “Jiang Heng, move and sit with Shen Huaizhi.”
Jiang Heng felt somewhat surprised; the position next to him was vacant. Rarely were there situations where an Alpha and Omega sat together. The school was quite strict in this regard. Hearing the teacher’s arrangement, there were whispers below.
“What’s going on?”
“I’ve never seen the class leader sharing a desk…”
“True, if an Alpha sits with the class leader, they’ll probably be excluded.”
Wang Yong seemed to have no intention of explaining this decision. After Jiang Heng moved his seat, he gave up his position for the teacher of this class. Before leaving, he instructed everyone to treat the upcoming exams seriously. If they performed well, there would be no class on the afternoon of the day the monthly exam results were out; they could watch a movie.
The promise of watching a movie diluted the gossip that had just happened, and everyone started discussing what movie to watch. No one cared much about why the seats suddenly changed.
“Class leader, what’s going on?” Jiang Heng took out a book and began to pretend. He didn’t think the class teacher would suddenly decide to change his seat.
Coincidentally, when Shen Huaizhi was in class, he was very focused, sitting upright and diligently taking notes. It seemed that he didn’t hear what Jiang Heng said.
Just after changing seats, Jiang Heng was still curious. Seeing that Shen Huaizhi didn’t respond, he wrote a small note and tossed it over to Shen Huaizhi’s side.
This person either slept or couldn’t sit still. Now, sitting next to Shen Huaizhi, he couldn’t possibly fall asleep. After writing the note, he threw it to Shen Huaizhi’s side.
Chen Xingchi, sitting behind them, couldn’t help it and poked Jiang Heng’s back with his pen. “Don’t disturb the class leader; he hates being disturbed when he’s studying.”
Chen Xingchi was a bit worried; Jiang Heng’s seat hadn’t even warmed up, and he was already asked to change it. His voice was low, and Jiang Heng didn’t hear clearly, “What?”
Chen Xingchi was about to speak when he saw Shen Huaizhi, with a serious expression, pick up Jiang Heng’s note.
Chen Xingchi: “What the hell!”
“Chen Xingchi! Can you please be quiet if you don’t want to attend the class?” The teacher’s chalk flew straight towards Chen Xingchi.
Jiang Heng suppressed a laugh, tilted his body, and let the chalk land steadily on Chen Xingchi’s desk.
Chen Xingchi felt wronged, “Why… How did the class leader end up reading a note during class? Did I see it wrong?”
Just as he finished his self-BB, he saw that Shen Huaizhi seemed to have written something on a small note and then handed it to Jiang Heng.
Chen Xingchi: “…”
Jiang Heng bit his pen, lowered his head, and glanced at the note.
“Class leader, can you explain this to me QAQ?”
“Pay attention to the class.”
Ah, Shen Huaizhi’s handwriting was also nice.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Heng crossed out the word “class” and then drew a small stick figure.
Attending class was indeed a bit challenging for him. Even if he wanted to pay attention, even if Shen Huaizhi was sitting next to him, Jiang Heng couldn’t successfully endure half a class. His state gradually changed from paying some attention to directly falling asleep with his head on the desk.
When he slept, the dazzlingly white back of his neck was completely exposed in the air. Perhaps to cover the marks, he applied a barrier patch today. However, that small section of his neck still had a fatal attraction.
The teacher was looking for someone to answer a question. She usually turned a blind eye to Jiang Heng. After looking at Jiang Heng’s side for a while, she finally called out, “Shen Huaizhi, please explain the answer.”
She called once, but it seemed like Shen Huaizhi didn’t hear.
She repeated, “Shen Huaizhi!”
Jiang Heng sleeping was one thing, but why was Shen Huaizhi also drifting away?
