At noon, the school’s broadcast suddenly came about. The vice principal’s deep voice announced, “We are now issuing a notice of expulsion.”
Everyone had just finished lunch and was returning for the afternoon self-study session. Upon hearing these words, everyone froze. They looked at each other in shock.
“Who is it?”
“Expulsion? Is it that serious?”
“It should be. Since it was announced by the Vice Principal…”
…
“He Linze, a student from Class 8 of Grade 3, concealed their second gender identity and had a close relationship with Chen Yi, a student from Class 32 of Grade 3. This seriously violated school regulations. After communication with the school and parents, the decision was made to expel both students. This decision is effective immediately. We hope that other students learn from this incident and avoid similar occurrences. That’s the end of the notice.”
As the broadcast ended, the teaching building fell silent, with only hushed whispers lingering.
“He Linze? Isn’t he the good-looking one? Is he an omega?”
“No wonder I always saw He Linze and Chen Yi together… So He Linze is an omega…”
“I heard they haven’t been to school for several days… It’s really tough. How did they get caught?”
“With the college entrance exams approaching, what will happen to them if they drop out?”
…
Zhou Zhou sat in his seat, frowning. His heart was pounding fast. He knew the school was always strict about such matters. But he didn’t expect them to expel the two directly, especially with the college entrance exams approaching. Even if they were given a serious warning or put on probation, it would have been better. At the very least, there would have been a record in their files. Now, being expelled would surely affect their college entrance exams.
He bit his lip, remaining silent. He felt it would be better to transfer as soon as possible. Otherwise, any trouble would surely affect Cheng Che.
“Hey, hey, hey. I just heard from people in Class 8.” The most well-informed alpha in the class slipped in through the back door, lowering his voice to share some gossip with everyone. “It’s said that last week, when everyone else had left, the two of them were chatting in the classroom. A teacher passed by the class and overheard them. It was found out that they were in a relationship.”
“I think so. He Linze confessed to being an omega to protect Chen Yi. He thought the school would punish him more severely and they would go easy on Chen Yi. But unexpectedly, the school decided to expel both of them.”
“Aahhh… Why did they have to date here at school? If He Linze attended the omega centre, they could have had a relationship without any trouble. Many alphas in our school have relationships with students from the omega centre and the school turns a blind eye to them. But if you’re found pretending to be an alpha within the school, especially when it involves an omega, the consequences are severe. Plus, with the province selecting outstanding training centres, it’s a matter of the school’s reputation. The school is definitely taking it seriously.”
After hearing him, the other alphas exchanged sympathetic glances. High school students, in general, lacked any sense of schadenfreude in such situations. Most of them felt understanding and compassion.
Zhou Zhou not only sympathised. But he almost felt like he was the one experiencing it himself.

Cheng Che knew that Zhou Zhou must be feeling scared. During break time that evening, Zhou Zhou stood with his head lowered in the queue. He avoided eye contact and did not dare to speak with Cheng Che.
To avoid suspicion, Yu Yang tactfully joined them, depicting a camaraderie that spanned across classes. He did so although he was inwardly reluctant.
“Everything will be fine,” Yu Yang patted Zhou Zhou on the back. “Everyone is busy making up stories about Cheng Che and some beauty from the omega centre. No one will notice you guys are together.”
Zhou Zhou shook his head. “I just feel it’s such a shame. We’re about to take the college entrance exams And they got expelled because of this. It’s just really sad when I think about it.”
Zhou Zhou saw He Linze and Chen Yi leave the school. Many alphas saw them too. They were leaning against the corridor, watching the two walk towards the school gate. It was an incompatible pair. He Linze even turned around, waving at everyone with a smile, while Chen Yi ruffled his hair.
Although it wasn’t a tearful and sorrowful scene, Zhou Zhou felt a deep unease. He believed they were both genuinely good people. Despite them breaking the school rules, it didn’t change their essential nature, did it?
While Zhou Zhou was worrying, he also felt a strange sense of shame. Some people were facing consequences for breaking the rules, while he was still hiding and pretending.
Cheng Che glanced at him but remained silent.
