Welcome to my new pit!
If you’ve read AAPCFO, the MC is similar to Ling Mu, and the ML is similar to Qiu Zhenyang (when susceptible / in the later half)
Our MC, Shi Yi, is an independent omega trying to run his own business, and is treated poorly by his unfeeling family. He acts cold, due to his past experiences
(trauma)with alphas, and cares a lot about his omega father.Our ML, Lu Yunye, is a top alpha, who suffers from bad susceptible periods. He slowly falls in love with our MC after getting to know him, before discovering he’s the cute omega he liked in childhood.
There’s also a few side couples involving our MC & ML’s friends and families.
Note: Omegaverse biology (estrus, susceptible periods) is a big part of the plot. Readers should be open to how it affects the MC & ML’s personality, thoughts, & behavior without jumping to conclusions.

It was past 9 p.m. in the evening, and all the famous people crowded together in the banquet hall on the top floor of Yunye Building to socialize.
Although everyone was wearing pheromone isolation stickers, most of them have lost their effectiveness after several hours of eating and drinking. The smell of various pheromones mixed together in the air was not so pleasant.
Shi Yi sat on the sofa in the corner, gently shaking the dark red liquid in his wine glass. A pair of long legs, wrapped in suit pants, crossed one another. His skin was fair under the glazed ceiling lighting, but he was a little too thin. Coupled with his indifferent temperament, he was a little out of tune with the surroundings.
“I knew you were here!” The sofa beside him sank, as an omega with a small and delicate face, and milky scent sat down carelessly, “You never come to these crowded places.”
“Xia Qian,” The corners of Shi Yi’s lips raised at the sight of an acquaintance. “Is the filming over?”
“It’s done, I came here from the set.” Xia Qian said with a smile, then lowered his voice, and whispered into Shi Yi’s ear, “I saw Feng Muqing just now. That guy is asking about you. You should wait a bit, and be careful. “
“En.” Shi Yi nodded. Feng Muqing is the eldest son of several leading entertainment companies, and his former marriage partner. They parted ways due to some unpleasantries before, but he didn’t expect that person to continue clinging on.
“The slap you gave was too light.” Xia Qian was still indignant. “He openly harassed omegas. If he didn’t have some family background, he would have been sent to jail long ago.”
Shi Yi remained silent, but his eyes gradually turned cold. Everyone knows what kind of guy Feng Muqing is, but the Shi family still clung to his thighs, blaming him for a long time after his engagement fell through last time.
Seeing Shi Yi’s face change, with his understanding of the Shi family, Xia Qian hurriedly changed the topic with a fake laugh: “By the way, why didn’t I see Mr. Lu? I thought I could see the boss if I came here early today.”
Xia Qian is an artist under Yunye Media, but the number of times he has seen Lu Yunye can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
The Lu family is very low-key. Although its properties are spread all over the place, they rarely appear in the public eye. As a top S-level alpha, Lu Yunye, was even more unpredictable, basically only appearing at these banquets he hosts.
“The rumors are getting more and more wild outside.” In order to make Shi Yi happy, Xia Qian did not hesitate to gossip about his boss. “It’s said that he has mania and is abstinent… the omega who seduced him before, his whole family is miserable now, and they are no longer doing business in the capital.”
“Really?” Shi Yi said softly, raised the wine glass to his lips and took a sip, staining his light-colored lips finally rosy.
Although this is a non-alcoholic drink.
He has no business relationship with Lu Yunye, and he doesn’t care about other people’s private lives. If it wasn’t for the persecution of the Shi family, he wouldn’t have come to this dinner at all.
——
Different from the noise in the front hall, the atmosphere in a box behind the screen is much quieter.
This is Lu Yunye’s separate reception room. Drinks are provided separately, coming from an ice tray floating with white mist. The huge one-way viewing glass captures everything in the periphery.
None of the alphas in the box were of low levels, but the one in the middle is obviously a little different. His shoulders and back are wider, and his waist and abdomen are tighter. His jawline is sharp, his nose is high, his eyes are deep, and he has a dark aura just by sitting.
“I say Lu Yunye, that little star from your company is here. When will you introduce me?” The alpha next to him elbowed him, “Do you think it would be inappropriate for me to walk over directly?”
Lu Yunye followed his gaze and saw the two omegas on the sofa. “My artists are not allowed to fall in love.”
Dai Xing understood Lu Yunye’s nature, and wasn’t discouraged. He pretended to be affectionate and said, “I’ve been Xia Qian’s fan for two years, and I don’t mind waiting a few more years.”
“Hey, wait,” Dai Xing narrowed his eyes. “Isn’t the one next to my Xiao Qian, Shi Yi?”
“Who is that?” Lu Yunye frowned, he had never heard of this person.
“Shi Yi, the youngest son of the Shi family, born from his father’s second marriage. The omega who was engaged to the Feng family before.” Dai Xing marveled at the lag in his information. “He beat Feng Muqing before, and Shi Jinpeng went to personally apologize to them. I’m guessing he still wants to marry off his son.”
Speaking of Shi Jinpeng, Lu Yunye finally had some impression of the Shi family that was engaged in the physical theater business, and had some business contact with them before.
Dai Xing was still spewing gossip, “I heard that Shi Yi has a glandular disease, and the smell of his pheromones is also very weak. I didn’t expect that Feng Muqing’s face would be so big that he still dares rush up.”
After finishing speaking, he concluded, “I really don’t want this kind of cruel omega.”
“The Shi family is being investigated for tax evasion recently, and Shi Jinpeng is desperately looking for a marriage to help his business. Everyone knows what he’s thinking.” Someone added from the side. “Mr. Lu, be careful. Don’t be caught by a vain person like him.”
Lu Yunye didn’t like to gossip, so he pretended not hear it. Slender fingers tapping on the wooden armrest, and he said lightly, “I’m not interested.”
Updates will be slow (no set schedule) as I ramp down SMM & WMWG, and ramp up ABV.
