“Don’t be impulsive, calm down.” Qiu Zhenyang put one arm around Ling Mu’s waist and touched his thorny head with the other, staring down at him comfortingly.

“Get out of the way, or I’ll beat you together!” Ling Mu’s eyes were red with anger, but in Qiu Zhenyang’s eyes, there was no threat at all.

Ignoring the reaction of the shocked students around him, gasping for breath after seeing his actions, Qiu Zhenyang controlled Ling Mu effortlessly, and said to Lin Nuo quite easily, “There was no medicine. You all know that when entering the test site, you have to undergo a whole body scan. How could anyone bring in things like banned drugs? As for you saying that Ling Mu is ugly… I’m sorry, everyone has different aesthetics. I just like him.”

“Shut the f*ck up!” Ling Mu, whose flushed with anger just now, reddened with shame.

He waved his arms in Qiu Zhenyang’s arms, clearly hitting hard, but the person being beaten didn’t react at all, as if his strength was only enough to tickle him.

The onlookers wore different expressions. For a while they didn’t know which point to complain about first.

Lin Nuo gritted his teeth in anger. From the past to now, Ling Mu has always been disgraced and insulted by others, but since when has him, Lin Nuo, ever lost face! All of this is because of that Ling Mu! Moreover, who knew that Qiu Zhenyang would speak up for Ling Mu like that! What the hell is he saying? Doesn’t Qiu Zhenyang like another omega, since when did he get with Ling Mu?

“Okay, I’ve said everything that needs to be said. The excitement is over, what are you all still doing here? You’re blocking other people’s way. Hurry up and leave.” Qiu Zhenyang was the first to leave the crowded center.

After being dragged all the way to the place to grab dinner plates, Ling Mu finally regained his freedom. He glared at Qiu Zhenyang fiercely and said, “I didn’t ask for your help.”

Qiu Zhenyang was speechless, but Yuan Chenyu, who was next to him, glared. “Hey, I say, Zhenyang is kind enough to help you, why don’t you appreciate it!”

Although he also watched with a confused look on his face, how could he not stand up for his good brother.

Ling Mu’s eyes became more obscure at Yuan Chenyu’s words. Frowning, he whispered, “I don’t want to owe him even more.”

“Ah?” Yuan Chenyu blinked, obviously not understanding his meaning.

“Okay, Chenyu, go to eat first, you don’t have to wait for me.” Qiu Zhenyang dragged Ling Mu to a corner. Staring blankly at their backs, in the end, Yuan Chenyu could only roll his eyes and go to eat by himself.

“Don’t pick me up, let go!” Ling Mu didn’t like physical contact with others, and his face was quite ugly.

However, Qiu Zhenyang obviously didn’t listen. This guy has an awkward personality, but when faced with his thick skin, nothing’s impossible.

After walking them to the corner, Qiu Zhenyang released his arm. Seeing Ling Mu touching his wrist with a displeased expression, he raised his eyebrows and said, “Who was that omega just now?”

Ling Mu glanced at him, but didn’t speak.

“Well, if you don’t say anything, I’ll kiss you right here.” Qiu Zhenyang crossed his arms lazily over his chest, acting cheeky to the end. Anyway, he isn’t someone who cares very much about the opinions of the outside world. So what if he kisses his omega?

“Why are you so shameless!” Ling Mu was shocked, and his chestnut pupils enlarged in fright.

This is the first time he has seen such a shameless person!

The shameless Qiu Zhenyang even dared laugh, curling his mouth, and hinted, “Quick, speak or kiss, choose one.”

“…” Ling Mu gritted his teeth for a while, and finally gave up, very unwillingly saying, “Lin Nuo, the young master of the Lin family.”

It turned out to be him.

Although the original body went to the Lin family to break off the marriage contact, he only met Lin Zhiyuan, and did not meet Lin Nuo, so he had no impression.

With a clear understanding in his heart, Qiu Zhenyang didn’t ask any more questions. He turned to look at Ling Mu’s bruised wrist that was pinched by the alpha just now. “Eat with me first, and then come to my room for medicine after eating.”

“Can you leave my business alone?” Ling Mu roared at Qiu Zhenyang, and stepped back. “I will return the favor of those crystal cores to you. I don’t want to owe you more, so can you stay away from me?”

His obvious behavior of escaping gave Qiu Zhenyang mixed feelings.

It was just some small help, but it was a lot of pressure in Ling Mu’s heart.

Taking a deep breath, Qiu Zhenyang’s eyes became firm, and the corners of his mouth burst into a splendid and warm smile. “But I want to. Ling Mu, listen, I want to take care of your matters. Sooner or later, I will also make you used to accepting everything I do to you.”

Things had deviated from that temporary mark, and Qiu Zhenyang didn’t bother caring any more.1Caring about the plot*

In the inconspicuous corner of the huge cafeteria, Ling Mu looked at the alpha in front of him with mixed emotions, and his heartbeat gradually amplified in his ears.

Fiercely gnashing his teeth, Ling Mu clenched his fists, turned around, and fled after dropping the words, “you’re crazy.”

Qiu Zhenyang smiled lightly at his fleeing back, and then turned around to pick up food again. Because he didn’t know Ling Mu’s taste, and couldn’t understand the dishes here, he simply ordered something recommended by the robot. Dividing it into two, he carried them back to his room first.2QZY ordered 2 servings, which came as one, and then was redivided

He opened his backpack and found a bottle of ointment inside. This ointment was given to him by his grandmother before he came to test. It is the highest S-grade quality medicine, and is good for healing outer wounds.

Holding the ointment and two meals, Qiu Zhenyang went directly to the omega area to find someone.

“My god, is that an alpha? What is he doing in the omega area?”

“He’s here to find someone. See, he has two meals in his hand.”

“Hey, hey, isn’t that Qiu Zhenyang from the first high school in the capital? My god, is he here to find the omega he’s been chasing for a long time?”

Qiu Zhenyang, who appeared in the omega’s rooming area, was surrounded by people as he walked. Ignoring those omegas, he went straight to the teacher in charge of this area, registered his identity information, and inquired about Ling Mu’s room.

After all, the security was poorer, and the teachers paid attention to these aspects. They not only checked Qiu Zhenyang’s identity, but also personally followed him to the outside of Ling Mu’s room.

Qiu Zhenyang coughed lightly under the gaze of the teacher, and raised his hand to knock on the door. “Ling Mu, are you there? I’m Qiu Zhenyang.”

There was a crisp cracking sound from the room, as if a cup fell to the ground .

The there was no sound again.

The teacher beside him gave Qiu Zhenyang a sideways glance, with obvious doubts in his eyes.

Two black lines hung on Qiu Zhenyang’s forehead. He quickly raised his hand to knock on the door again. “Ling Mu, I’ve brought you medicine. Please open the door quickly, and don’t bother the teacher any longer.”

This time, there was a response in the room – a rather clear “go away”.

Qiu Zhenyang: “…”

Teacher: “…”

The teacher looked at Qiu Zhenyang with narrowed eyes, as if studying him.

“Cough, Ling Mu, I know you’re still mad at me.” Qiu Zhenyang continued knocking on the door without changing his face, completely ignoring the teacher’s gaze. “It’s all my fault for biting so hard when marking you. You were so tempting, I couldn’t help it. It’s human nature after all.”

Hearing this, the teacher’s eyes widened into round balls, revealing bloodshot eyes.

“F*ck!”

The door slammed open, Qiu Zhenyang was pulled in by his collar, and the door closed again with a “bang” before his feet could stand firm.

Teacher: “…”

He stared at the door panel for a while, then turned and left silently.

After dragging the person in, Ling Mu frowned and looked at Qiu Zhenyang with an enraged expression: “Do you still want face?!”

Qiu Zhenyang put the bag in his hand on the table beside him, and took the lunch box with a natural expression. He then said, “What’s there to hide? Anyway, many people saw us in the cafeteria.”

Watching his movement, Ling Mu’s eyes passed over the two hot meals. Affording these dishes would require him working 2 days. He and Qiu Zhenyang, no matter what it was, are very discordant, like two parallel lines that cannot intersect.3Nerdy math fact, 2 parallel lines can intersect in non-Euclidian geometry. See basketball example

“Qiu Zhenyang, what’s your purpose?”

Ling Mu’s voice was hoarse.

Ling Mu couldn’t think of any reason for Qiu Zhenyang’s actions. Could he be toying with him for revenge?

After setting the meals down, Qiu Zhenyang sighed slightly. He reached out and tried to pull Ling Mu over to eat, but was avoided by the other party.

“I already said so, I will be responsible.” Qiu Zhenyang stared down at his face. “You have my mark and my smell on your body, how can I possibly let you go?”

He really can’t let Ling Mu go. It wasn’t only because he missed the character in the original text,4As in, he pitied/liked Ling Mu’s character in the novel but also because Ling Mu’s appearance and personality were very much in line with his own heart.

Qiu Zhenyang wanted to give him a hand, and was unwilling to see the day he truly became desperate.

Ling Mu felt that Qiu Zhenyang was acting unreasonable. “What are you talking about. It’s just a temporary mark, and will disappear soon.”

Alphas still care about a temporary mark? Don’t say a temporary mark, even if it’s a full mark, there are many alphas who will abandon their omegas to find a new love. Most of those alphas have strong and powerful backgrounds, and they will not take a mere temporary mark to heart at all.

Besides, Qiu Zhenyang hated him so much in the past, and no longer had a marriage contract.

Being looked at by Ling Mu with such distrustful eyes, Qiu Zhenyang touched his nose with a guilty conscience.

Those are all ‘good’ things the original body did. He’s innocent, okay?

“I know you don’t believe me, then… what if I want to make friends with you? I’m sorry about those previous things, but apart from the marriage contract, you are the son of Adjutant Ling. Adjutant Ling is my father’s savior, and you and I should have been friends to start.”

Qiu Zhenyang knew Ling Mu’s psychology well. Years of living badly made him unwilling to trust others, and resist those unreasonable or suspicious offers.

But fortunately, a lot of things haven’t happened yet. Seeing the hesitation flash in his eyes, Qiu Zhenyang knew that he hasn’t given up on human nature yet.

There’s still a chance.

“I don’t want to be friends with you.” Irritated, Ling Mu’s brows were so tightly knit that a fly could be caught.

Smiling, Qiu Zhenyang looked at him and nodded. “Okay, you still have time to consider whether it’s worth being friends with me. But the food has already been delivered, so just give me face, how about having a meal together?”

QZY: Knock, knock.

LM: …

QZY: Knock, knock. I have food and meds.

LM: F*ck off!

QZY: Knock, knock. About the mark…

LM: F*ck you!

Teacher on the side: WTF just happened?!
