Once successfully matched within the system, both parties can preliminarily contact each other through the internal messaging system.
Quickly, a message arrived from Qi Yuanchu.
The dean’s eyes flashed, reacting swiftly, but was intercepted by Xu Yin, who tore it open effortlessly without even turning his head, causing her to cry out in shock, almost falling to the ground!
The two groups didn’t help her, their faces quite ugly—once the communication between the two sides reached this stage, others couldn’t interfere anymore. The system only accepted input from the fingerprint owner, so what was she trying to do by rushing over?!
Moreover, that was a message from Qi Yuanchu, how dare she interfere!
Xu Yin stood in front of the family system’s touch screen, touching his chin as he looked at the lengthy message from the other party.
The wording was very polite, and even somewhat mature in expressing greetings, explaining their own situation, expressing their desire for a good love, and finally, eagerly but not losing composure, asking if they could meet.
Hmm…
This doesn’t seem to be the style of his Lao gong.
His Lao gong is reserved and subtle, unable to write such straightforward and eager words; usually, actions speak for him.
However…
He looked at the man in the photo.
The pitch-black abyss-like eyes, the lightly pursed lips that seemed very indifferent, the strong yet elegant facial features, the sexy jawline… everything was the most familiar to him. He could even imagine the indifference in the man’s eyes dissipating instantly and turning into a gentle expression when he slightly lifted his lips.
Xu Yin quickly made a judgment in his mind.
The person is that person, but the message is not sent by him.
Xu Yin narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and regardless of anything else, accepted the invitation to meet.
Since he had contacted his Lao gong, and their current most important communication tool was this marriage matching system, Xu Yin naturally wouldn’t leave this orphanage temporarily.
“Qi Yuanchu” indicated that he would come to see him.
So Xu Yin simply sent the address of the orphanage.
In just one or two minutes, both sides confirmed the first “date” arrangements and agreed to meet the day after tomorrow directly.
Xu Yin nodded in satisfaction, finished chatting, turned off the system, turned around, and saw three faces looking embarrassed.
He was in a good mood at the moment, so he smiled and asked, “So, do we still need to continue the discussion we just had?”
The two groups of officers and officials: “…………”
How can we continue?!!!
What could be more embarrassing than getting furious halfway through and then being slapped in the face?!
The two groups felt aggrieved and said, “……No, it’s late, we’re leaving!”
The dean grabbed them in panic, “Officers! Officials!”
They forcefully pulled their hands away. One of them lowered his voice and said, “It’s Qi Yuanchu that he’s matched with. What else can we do? Do we dare to meddle in Qi Yuanchu’s affairs? Even Madam Lu doesn’t dare! Your son is not an emperor, does he have to stick with that omega? There are so many omegas in the orphanage, why can’t he pick another one?!”
“But,” the dean gritted her teeth, “But I just can’t accept it…”
Zhou Xiao likes Xu Yin, and she has secretly worked so hard for her son’s happiness for so long. Now, she’s about to succeed, but Xu Yin slips away!
How could she accept it!
And Xiao Xiao will definitely be heartbroken. When that child wakes up and hears this news, he will definitely cry and make a scene!
She whispered, “Qi Yuanchu is from the central city after all. No matter how influential he is, he can’t necessarily interfere in our affairs here, right?”
They looked at her incredulously.
Although they outwardly followed Madam Lu’s orders and were quite considerate of this woman, internally, the Association has always looked down on this new dean of the orphanage.
She came from who knows where, a single parent, bringing along a somewhat pitiful-looking son, timid and submissive, knowing nothing, only knowing how to fawn over Madam Lu.
But they didn’t expect Madam Lu to actually have some relationship with her in the past. Even though this woman couldn’t hold her own, Madam Lu still regarded her highly.
However, this woman would probably be nothing more than the dean of an orphanage in the depths of the forest for her whole life—she doesn’t seem like someone who can climb high.
…Never did they imagine that, facing Qi Yuanchu at this moment, both of them would falter, yet she still had the audacity to “not accept it”!
The two of them were truly taken aback and for the first time realized that this woman might have some ability since she managed to climb up to Madam Lu.
…At least she indeed had enough courage.
They glanced at each other and waved their hands, “Alright, we’ll talk to Madam Lu about this matter. If even Madam Lu says it’s not possible, then it’s not possible!”

After the officers and officials arrived, soon enough, a nosy and restless omega secretly slipped down and eavesdropped on everything in the corridor.
After hearing the astonishing part, he covered his mouth, turned around, and went upstairs, entering his friend’s room.
Messages were passed on one by one until the next morning, and the entire orphanage was filled with rumors—
Xu Yin has been matched with a big shot, and the big shot has already arranged to meet him!
During breakfast, the atmosphere at every table was peculiar, everyone seemed absent-minded, and their gazes occasionally drifted past Xu Yin, who was calmly eating.
Beside Xu Yin, Bai Luo put down his chopsticks several times, seeming like he wanted to say something, but hesitated due to the quiet atmosphere. Once he opened his mouth, he would be surrounded by others, so he angrily picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.
In fact, he was both jealous and fearful in his heart.
Jealous because all of Xu Yin’s qualifications were just average, yet he managed to match with Qi Yuanchu.
Who is Qi Yuanchu, you ask?
Even though they lived in the orphanage since childhood and rarely interacted with the outside world, they had heard of him!
He was a person who lived in a completely different world from them, an alpha they didn’t even dare to fantasize about.
Bai Luo strongly suspected that there was a mistake in the marriage matching system, but if there really was a bug, why couldn’t it happen to him? Why did it have to happen to Xu Yin!
Fearful because once Xu Yin really went with Qi Yuanchu, Zhou Xiao would definitely shift his harassment target.
And who would be his next target?
If it were him, would he be lucky enough to escape like Xu Yin?
Just thinking about it made Bai Luo tremble.
Especially the dean…
This woman, who initially seemed honest and simple when she arrived here, had long since shed her disguise and revealed the face of a poisonous snake.
Just being glanced at by her, Bai Luo felt a chill down his spine.
After breakfast, Xu Yin rested for a while before going for a run—it’s still necessary to do some tasks when there’s free time, points shouldn’t be consumed recklessly.
Halfway through the run, a random task popped up, and Xu Yin followed the instructions in the task panel to turn to the back of a building, where he saw a small black dog cowering in the corner, trembling in fear, whimpering, while the dean slowly approached with open arms, seemingly intending to catch it.
This little thing, having sneaked out all night, actually ended up here—Xu Yin raised an eyebrow and asked, “Dean, what are you doing?”
The dean was startled, turned around, and saw Xu Yin, her face slightly changed, “You, what are you doing here?”
The small black dog’s eyes lit up when it saw Xu Yin, its ears perked up, and it quickly slipped out from under the dean’s body, bouncing towards Xu Yin.
Xu Yin bent down and directly picked up the small black dog.
The dean froze, forced a smile, and said, “Xu Yin, this is a stray dog, who knows how many germs it’s carrying on its body. It’s better not to casually bring it back.”
The small black dog wagged its tail and buried its head into Xu Yin’s arms, curling up into a ball, showing its backside to the dean.
Xu Yin patted its back—scolding it for disappearing all night.
“It’s okay, I’ll be careful,” Xu Yin said lightly, “But as for you, Dean, if you do anything inappropriate to small animals, it might affect your position in the omega orphanage, don’t forget.”
—The scrutiny for this position is so strict, even though this woman seems to have some backing in the Association, it seems she still hasn’t reached the point of being fearless. This warning would be effective for her.
The dean clenched her fists immediately.
Despite being warned, she still had to force a smile, gritting her teeth, “What are you talking about? I just wanted to bring it back and feed it some food…”
“From today onwards, I’ll take care of it.”
Xu Yin said and turned around.
The next second, the dean caught up, “Wait, Xu Yin, there’s something I almost forgot to tell you—”
Xu Yin kept walking, giving her a glance.
The dean had to follow him, holding back her anger, putting on a friendly face, “Early this morning, the Qi family contacted me.”
Xu Yin narrowed his eyes at her words.
The Qi family, not Qi Yuanchu.
Sure enough, the one who contacted him through the messaging system last night wasn’t his Lao gong.
Because if it were really him, he would never let anyone—even family members—interfere in this matter.
The dean pretended to be kind-hearted, “I talked to them and found out that yesterday’s match was done by their elderly without Qi Yuanchu’s knowledge. That elderly person is old and confused, even last night’s appointment with you was decided by him without permission.”
The dean observed Xu Yin’s expression from the corner of her eye and slowly continued, “It wasn’t until this morning when Qi Yuanchu returned from his business trip that they told him about it, but he doesn’t seem very happy…”
Xu Yin paused, interrupting her, “Has Qi Yuanchu seen my photo?”
Such a question would be answered when they met, and Xu Yin was sure the dean wouldn’t dare lie to him.
The dean slightly curled her lips, secretly pleased but had to hide it, sighed, “Of course, hasn’t he? Actually, Xiao Yin, you’re very beautiful, but you also know, someone like Qi Yuanchu has seen hundreds, if not thousands, of omegas, so his standards are naturally high…”
Xu Yin looked ahead, expressionless, and remained silent.
Seeing him like this, the dean felt even more gleeful.
Who would dare to dream that a scion of a prestigious family would easily take a fancy to him?
Too naive!
She said, “You, prepare yourself. The Qi family are very eager for him to get married soon, but marriage is impossible between you two. If he doesn’t like you, even if you enter a prestigious family, you won’t be happy!”
Xu Yin walked faster, and the dean had to almost jog to keep up.
Panting, she continued, “Failed marriages in prestigious families aren’t uncommon! So, you have to stay clear-headed and learn to resist temptation—”
“Learn? Well,” Xu Yin suddenly stopped, turned around, and smiled brightly, “I happen to love prestigious families the most.”
The dean was stunned, “Huh?”
“If Qi Yuanchu himself doesn’t like me,” Xu Yin smiled, each word uttered clearly, “maybe he should reflect on himself.”
The dean: “????”
What is this guy saying? Is he alright?!
The dean was dumbfounded.
