After the class, Qiu Zhenyang sorted out his schoolbag and left the classroom with Ling Mu.
But not long after they went out, the two were stopped by Guan Tang.
“Ah, how are you! Ah, excuse me!” Guan Tang seemed to be running over from another classroom, probably out of breath for fear of not catching up with them.
Qiu Zhenyang already knew his name from Ling Mu’s mouth, so he greeted him kindly. “Guan Tang, hello.”
It was the peak of class, and there were a lot of people, so they found a corner with no people to talk. Because Guan Tang didn’t say that he wanted to talk to Ling Mu alone this time, Qiu Zhenyang also followed.
“Well, I’m here to ask about a spot for the internal test…” Guan Tang smiled at Ling Mu, his eyes full of inquiry.
Ling Mu squinted at Qiu Zhenyang and said nothing.
The latter couldn’t help smiling, and said generously to Guan Tang: “Okay, you’ve found the right person. Scan your boyfriend’s terminal code, and I will send him the code later.”
Guan Tang happily sent his boyfriend’s terminal code to Qiu Zhenyang. After confirming it was sent, he couldn’t hide his excitement, and pulled Ling Mu’s hand. “You guys are so kind. I’ll treat you to dinner. Let’s have dinner together, I’ll pull my boyfriend over too! Thank you very much!”
Ling Mu, whose hands were held, was a little uncomfortable, and wanted to refuse.
But Qiu Zhenyang was one step ahead of him and agreed directly: “Yes, then thank you.”
Guan Tang agreed with the two of them on a time and place, and then ran away happily, unable to wait to share this joy with his boyfriend.
Ling Mu turned his head and asked Qiu Zhenyang, “Why did you agree?”
The classmates in the corridor were almost gone by now, so Qiu Zhenyang took Ling Mu by the hand and explained, “Didn’t you ask me about friends at noon? I’ll take a look at it for you. This Guan Tang feels pretty good, and making friends when eating is possible.”
Qiu Zhenyang squeezed Ling Mu’s hand, “Anyway, I’ll accompany you tonight. If you don’t feel good, just leave. It doesn’t matter.”
Since Ling Mu doesn’t know anything about these things, it is necessary for Qiu Zhenyang to help him filter people out.
After returning home and putting down their bags, Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu went to the gym. The two of them usually pay attention to fitness, so Ling Mu’s physical strength and endurance are much better than the average omega.
When it was almost time for dinner, the two went to their rooms to take a shower, changed their clothes, and went out together.
When Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu arrived, Guan Tang was already standing in front of the restaurant.
“Ah, you guys are here, I’ve already booked a private room inside, come in first!” Guan Tang welcomed the two in with a smile. But after they entered, he glanced anxiously at the time on his terminal and went outside to look around. After looking around a few times, he followed.
After entering the private room, Guan Tang first handed the menu to Ling Mu. “I’m sorry, my boyfriend was delayed by some things, and he will probably be a little late. You order first, he should be able to arrive when the food comes. Just order whatever you want.”
Ling Mu nodded indifferently, pushed the menu towards Qiu Zhenyang, and motioned him to read it together.
However, Qiu Zhenyang has always been uninterested in Interstellar food, so he just ordered a dish with a relatively normal name, leaving the rest to Ling Mu to order. Ling Mu ordered one more and then pushed Guan Tang back. He was really used to eating Qiu Zhenyang’s dishes, and he wasn’t much interested in these foods.
Guan Tang saw that the two of them only ordered two dishes with some surprise. “Is the food in this restaurant unpalatable? Why don’t we change to another one? Anyway, there is still time, don’t worry.”
Qiu Zhenyang said immediately: ” No, no, we just don’t know what’s good in this store. We’re afraid to be struck by lightning1as in picking something horrible, so why don’t you help us order the rest.”
Ling Mu nodded, picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water for Qiu Zhenyang, and then for himself. Just as he was about to put down the kettle, after thinking about it, he took Guan Tang’s cup and poured him a cup.
“Ah, thank you!” Guan Tang was a little flattered. Ling Mu used to feel too inhumane, which made Guan Tang feel shocked by the occasional closeness.
After Guan Tang generously ordered a few more dishes, the three of them began to wait for the dishes to be served. Throughout, Guan Tang looked for topics to liven up the atmosphere, Qiu Zhenyang chatted socially, and although Ling Mu didn’t talk much, he has been listening carefully to them.
So far, Qiu Zhenyang is quite satisfied.
But Guan Tang’s boyfriend still didn’t arrive when the food was served.
Although neither Qiu Zhenyang nor Ling Mu mentioned this matter, Guan Tang felt very embarrassed. Originally, he invited them to repay their kindness, but it’s rude to let them wait on an empty stomach!
After talking about a topic, Guan Tang couldn’t help but use the excuse of going to the bathroom to call his boyfriend.
“A’chen, where have you been?” Guan Tang suppressed her anger and asked angrily.
An impatient voice came from the opposite side: “What’s the hurry? I’m almost here, just a minute or two.”
Guan Tang tried to control his tone and said as gently as possible: “If you really can’t make it in time, don’t come, and we’ll eat directly. It’s embarrassing to let them wait for so long.”
“What’s the embarrassment for? Didn’t I just say a minute or two. One sec, I’m hanging up.”
But no matter how angry he was, Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu still had to know. After Guan Tang went back, he said that his boyfriend was coming soon, and bade them eat first.
“It’s alright, let’s eat with him.” Qiu Zhenyang has always been patient, but Ling Mu is obviously starting to get impatient. When Guan Tang left, he wanted to leave, but Qiu Zhenyang forced him to stay so he sat down again.
In the end, another ten minutes passed.
“Yo, the dishes are ready, I’m dying of starvation, hurry up and eat!” Guan Tang’s boyfriend finally arrived late, and he sat down and started to eat.
Guan Tang quickly grabbed the man’s arm to prevent him from moving. After winking several times, he turned around with a smile and introduced, “This is my boyfriend Nie Chen, the senior of our sophomore year. A’chen, this is Qiu Zhenyang and He Ling Mu, they gave you the spot for the internal test of “Machine Warfare”!”
Nie Chen swallowed what was in his mouth and looked at Qiu Zhenyang carefully for a while.
Originally, Qiu Zhenyang’s expression was quite friendly, but the other party’s eyes didn’t seem to be kind, so his mouth gradually dropped, and his eyes became indifferent.
“Qiu Zhenyang, isn’t it? Oh, as expected of a rich man, he was able to make games independently after he went to college. Who knows if the game will work or not.” Nie Chen raised his glass, reluctantly, and raised his head to toast him.
Guan Tang didn’t expect him to say such a thing, so he couldn’t help kicking him several times under the table.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, he has a very low EQ and always talks nonsense!”
Guan Tang was still thinking about helping Nie Chen, but the other party didn’t appreciate it. “What nonsense? I’m just describing objective facts. As for whether the game is okay, I have to wait until I have played it before I know it. What’s wrong with what I said?”
Qiu Zhenyang has always been very personable, and since this person is Guan Tang’s boyfriend, he just smiled and said ambiguously, “Nie Chen is right. Whether it’s good or not will only be known after playing it.”
Ling Mu and Guan Tang both sensed the smell of testosterone between the two of them. The latter was so anxious that his forehead sweated. The former ignored them and ate silently.
However, after just two bites, he couldn’t take it anymore. After eating Qiu Zhenyang’s dishes for a long time, it was really difficult to accept these foods.
Therefore, Nie Chen was the only one eating happily at the dinner table. Guan Tang also found things tasteless. After poking his chopsticks in the bowl several times, he didn’t eat much.
When Nie Chen had finished about half of the dishes on the table, a call came in. He answered the phone while eating, and turned on the speakerphone for convenience.
“Brother Chen, didn’t you agree to play games with me? Why aren’t you online yet?”
A coquettish voice that made one’s skin crawl came from the terminal. Ling Mu’s hand shook, and his chopsticks fell on the ground with a clatter. Taking a sip of water, Qiu Zhenyang wiped his mouth with a tissue, and looked at Guan Tang, and found that the other party’s face turned pale, and his eyes became obviously dim.
“I’m eating.” Nie Chen replied, ignoring those beside him. He didn’t forget to keep eating while he talked.
The girl on the other end of the phone was a little unhappy at his reply. “Is brother Chen accompanying his boyfriend? Oh, really, how can someone stick to their partner so much, it’s just for a meal. Isn’t our game tonight important? Brother Chen, if you don’t come, you can’t blame us if we lose~”
Guan Tang was so angry that he seemed to want to grab the terminal and argue with the woman, but Nie Chen held him down.
“I see, I’ll be there soon, you guys go online and wait for me first.”
After saying this, Nie Chen hung up the phone and ate the dish in his bowl before lowering his head.
Guan Tang couldn’t bear it anymore, frowned and asked Nie Chen in front of Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu, “Don’t tell me you really want to leave?”
Nie Chen stood up: “I’ll leave first, you guys eat slowly.”
“Nie Chen, please stop for me! Do you know the meaning of tonight’s meal? People are willing to give you a spot for the internal test, yet you use this kind of attitude to repay them?” Although Guan Tang is petite and cute, his aura is quite intimidating when he’s angry. If they weren’t in a private room, his loud voice would probably attract the attention of many people.
But Nie Chen wasn’t fazed. “So annoying, saying so much. I’m leaving.”
He didn’t even have the patience to explain, and just left Guan Tang here.
The door was pulled, and the room fell silent. Guan Tang sat down again, downcast and distressed.
Ling Mu suddenly opened his mind for some reason, and pushed Guan Tang the tissue next to him, signaling him to use it.
“Thank you…” Guan Tang took out a piece of paper and blew her nose very loudly. “I’m sorry, I didn’t expect this to happen. If I knew earlier, he wouldn’t be allowed to come here, why don’t we just eat.”
Qiu Zhenyang tapped his fingers on the table twice: “Although it’s not good to say these words because we’ve only known each other for a short while, I still advise you to see clearly as soon as possible and not get too deep.”
Ling Mu was more direct: “What do you like about him?”
Guan Tang sighed helplessly, with memories in his eyes. “I am a person who likes to play games, but because players are generally unfriendly to omegas, it’s difficult for me to play. I was scolded for a while and almost retired. Later, after coming here, I was introduced to the school’s game club. Back then he brought me to play, and didn’t mind if I was terrible. I’ve been with him since then.”
This experience was really… unexpected.
Qiu Zhenyang raised his eyebrows and decided not to say anything.
With Nie Chen’s disturbance, the meal could no longer be eaten, so Guan Tang went to settle the bill hastily.

Brother Chen, if you don't come, you can't blame us if we lose~Guan Tang was so angry that he seemed to want to grab the terminal and argue with the woman, but Nie Chen held him down.I see, I'll be there soon, you guys go online and wait for me first.After saying this, Nie Chen hung up the phone and ate the dish in his bowl before lowering his head.Guan Tang couldn't bear it anymore, frowned and asked Nie Chen in front of Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu, Don't tell me you really want to leave?Nie Chen stood up: I'll leave first, you guys eat slowly.Nie Chen, please stop for me! Do you know the meaning of tonight's meal? People are willing to give you a spot for the internal test, yet you use this kind of attitude to repay them? Although Guan Tang is petite and cute, his aura is quite intimidating when he's angry. If they weren't in a private room, his loud voice would probably attract the attention of many people.But Nie Chen wasn't fazed. So annoying, saying so much. I'm leaving.He didn't even have the patience to explain, and just left Guan Tang here.The door was pulled, and the room fell silent. Guan Tang sat down again, downcast and distressed.Ling Mu suddenly opened his mind for some reason, and pushed Guan Tang the tissue next to him, signaling him to use it.Thank you Guan Tang took out a piece of paper and blew her nose very loudly. I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen. If I knew earlier, he wouldn't be allowed to come here, why don't we just eat.Qiu Zhenyang tapped his fingers on the table twice: Although it's not good to say these words because we've only known each other for a short while, I still advise you to see clearly as soon as possible and not get too deep.Ling Mu was more direct: What do you like about him?Guan Tang sighed helplessly, with memories in his eyes. I am a person who likes to play games, but because players are generally unfriendly to omegas, it's difficult for me to play. I was scolded for a while and almost retired. Later, after coming here, I was introduced to the school's game club. Back then he brought me to play, and didn't mind if I was terrible. I've been with him since then.This experience was really unexpected.Qiu Zhenyang raised his eyebrows and decided not to say anything.With Nie Chen's disturbance, the meal could no longer be eaten, so Guan Tang went to settle the bill hastily.
