After getting up today, Zhou Zhou stood in front of the bathroom mirror observing himself for five minutes. Then, he knocked on Zhou Qiao’s door.
“Come in.”
Zhou Zhou opened the door. Zhou Qiao was wearing glasses, busy typing on her computer.
This time, she wasn’t gaming but working.
However, work was something that could drive people crazier than terrible teammates in games.
“Fuck! I’ve edited it a hundred and eighty times. And they still want me to change it. Why don’t they do it themselves? This is so frustrating!”
“Damn it, they can’t even pinpoint what’s wrong. They just keep saying, ‘I feel like something’s off’. I think there’s something wrong with their brains. Screw it!”
“I’m so pissed off. If they don’t approve it this time, I’m resigning!”
…
Zhou Zhou touched his nose. “Sis, do you have any perfume?”
Zhou Qiao glanced at him. “Do you want some cologne?”
“Do you have something that smells more neutral?” Zhou Zhou seemed indifferent. “My suppressants have made my pheromones completely neutral. I want to wear some perfume.”
“I advise you not to use it,” Zhou Qiao said, “You’ve never had a scent. Suddenly spraying perfume can easily draw attention. Don’t go looking for trouble.”
“That’s true,” Zhou Zhou thought for a moment, “Can you lend me your lipstick then?”
“You’ve got to be kidding me…” Zhou Qiao looked at him with disdain, “Your lips are already red enough. If you apply lipstick, the whole school will know you’re an Omega.”
Zhou Zhou bent down and looked at himself in the mirror on Zhou Qiao’s desk, examining from left to right. “Sis, do I look good?”
“Cut it out,” Zhou Qiao pushed his head away, “Let me tell you this. If you go to the school playground right now and shout ‘I’m an Omega’, 99% of the Alphas in your school will come rushing towards you.”
Zhou Zhou couldn’t feel happy about it. “But what if that indifferent 1% happens to be the person I like…”
Zhou Qiao turned to look at him, “No. I didn’t finish my sentence earlier. I meant to say, 99% of the Alphas will come rushing towards you. But the remaining 1% will like you even if you were an Alpha.”
Zhou Zhou straightened up and touched Zhou Qiao’s forehead with his hand, “Sis, don’t suddenly speak like a human, it scares me. Are you feeling unwell?”
“I’m just trying to get you to leave quickly and not delay my work!” Zhou Qiao’s anger was rising, “Can you hurry up and go to school?!”

Yu Yang went to school with Zhou Zhou today.
As soon as Zhou Zhou came downstairs, he pulled Yu Yang aside.
“What are you trying to do? A drug deal or something?”
“No,” Zhou Zhou said. He nervously touched his nose for a bit, “Can you take a look for me?”
“Look at what…”
Before Yu Yang could finish his sentence, Zhou Zhou swiftly pulled down the zipper of his school uniform jacket.
He was wearing a pink sweater underneath.
“Fuck…” Yu Yang was shocked and leaned against the nearby utility pole, “Zhou Zhou, seriously?”
He had grown up with Zhou Zhou. Although Zhou Zhou looked delicate and pretty, Yu Yang had never seen him wear this kind of colour before. He remembered that Zhou Zhou used to dislike pink, saying it was too girly and that a real man would never touch it!
Damn it, Yu Yang now thought that Zhou Zhou might be more than just an Omega. He might be a female Omega!
“Do I look good?” Zhou Zhou took a step towards Yu Yang, looking down at his sweater with uncertainty, “If it doesn’t look good, I’ll go home and change.”
Although Yu Yang felt shocked, terrified, and somewhat powerless inside, he had to admit that Zhou Zhou looked stunning in this attire.
His skin was naturally fair, his lips were rosy, his eyes were large, and his features were incredibly delicate. Combined with his natural clean aura and slender frame, this soft pastel sweater was like the perfect finishing touch. Whether it was the slender neck exposed by the collar or the delicate wrists peeking out from the sleeves, Zhou Zhou was undoubtedly top-tier among Omegas.
However, Yu Yang couldn’t bring himself to praise Zhou Zhou out loud. Although he had already written a 500-word praise essay for Zhou Zhou in his mind, using his less-than-stellar language skills, he couldn’t say to his childhood friend, “You are so beautiful.”
So Yu Yang moved his lips, struggling to speak, “You look so flirtatious…”
Surprisingly, Zhou Zhou didn’t get angry. He just looked serious and troubled as he contemplated for a moment. He then furrowed his eyebrows, “Flirtatious? Cheng Che probably doesn’t like ‘flirtatious’. Maybe I should change back to the white shirt.”
As Zhou Zhou turned to walk away, Yu Yang suddenly felt guilty and grabbed his wrist.
Fuck, how did he not notice before that this guy’s hands were so slender and smooth when they used to wrestle and tussle?!
Startled, Yu Yang immediately let go of his hand and hastily said, “No, no, no. I think this looks good. Just be a bit more dignified in your behaviour and you won’t come off as too flirtatious.”
“And…” he hesitated before adding, “I’m an Alpha too, you know. Alphas have a strong protective and possessive instinct toward delicate things. The way you are now, Cheng Che should like it.”
Zhou Zhou was about to smile in relief when his expression suddenly froze.
“Oh fuck, I forgot. I’m still an Alpha now. Isn’t it too inappropriate for me to dress like this?!”
“It shouldn’t be.” Yu Yang looked at him and thought carefully, “Here’s the plan. Wear your jacket in class and when you’re alone with Cheng Che, take off the jacket and show the sweater. After all, he’s going to find out sooner or later that you’re an Omega. This way, you’re preparing him mentally in advance.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhou cheered happily. He circled around the utility pole with excitement and then patted Yu Yang on the shoulder. “You’re brilliant!”
Yu Yang rubbed his shoulder, thinking that Zhou Zhou had indeed become less intimidating since he differentiated as an Omega. In the past, even a light punch from him would hurt like hell. But now, he barely felt a thing.
That’s great, Yu Yang thought with delight. He could finally take revenge on all the grudges he had against Zhou Zhou from their childhood.
Like the time Zhou Zhou poured winter melon soup over his head.
Or the time Zhou Zhou put cockroaches in his shoes.
Or the time Zhou Zhou painted on his face while he was napping.
Or the time Zhou Zhou poked his butt with a bamboo stick while catching cicadas.
And many more…
Well, Yu Yang glanced at Zhou Zhou. The guy was now dancing provocatively while humming a tune. Yu Yang thought to himself that maybe he could just let this little wildcat go and be forgiven.
