This is sponsored chapter by Honey Toast and Anonymous ‘A’ (OwO)/ Much tenkius~~

Su Ling has a natural smile on the outside, but inside his heart, he was a little embarrassed. The mesmerizing fragrance in the air reminds him of the scene where he showed his dislike to his own pheromone in the hospital.

Nalu was surprised by his natural greeting, “Do you know President Gu?”

It was not strange for Su Ling to know President Gu. The strange part was his tone that doesn’t seem like it’s one-sided.

Su Ling’s smile deepened, such a coincidence, this man actually had the same surname with his imaginary male god and was very handsome as well.

“We met in the hospital.” He explained to Nalu and looked at the man.

Gu Liheng walked into the room. His bodyguards stood outside the door and closed the VIP room door behind him.

“I was just passing by, then I caught a whiff of the Redthorn Ball’s scent,” he explained, pointing at the spiritual plant in the middle protective box. He looked at Su Ling, “I want to buy it at a high price.”

Following Gu Liheng’s direction, Su Ling looked at Redthorn Ball plant. The plant, at first glance, looked like a bunch of balloons. From the bottom, there are many elongated branches and on top of each branch is a bright red ball. The ball was translucent and looked quite elastic. The surface of the ball has countless filaments of fluff, and the fluff floated gently in the air while giving off a slight gleam. The Redthorn Ball seemed to sense his gaze, its branch closest to him bent towards him, and the filaments on the surface of the ball also tried to get nearer to him.

Su Ling froze, took a step back, and pulled away from the protective box.

The branch was surprised for a moment, and the ball at the top of that branch droop to the left side as if the branch would fall next second, but it did not fall. After the ball maintained this pose for a few seconds, its filament returned to the ball and covered the entire surface of the ball, while the plant retracted its stem.

Nalu exclaimed, “Why didn’t you comfort it? It likes you very much.”

Su Ling: “… how do you know?”

Nalu: “For spiritual plants to actively approach someone, it’s either to attack or to show affection.”

He said with excitement in his voice, “Although I am a Beta, and I don’t know much about the spiritual plant, but I have been working in fragrance bar for many years, so I do know some related knowledge.

“If you communicate with them using your pheromones, you would definitely feel their goodwill.”

Su Ling thought about the smell of his pheromone and glanced at the people around. He didn’t immediately try to experiment with his pheromone. He turned to Gu Liheng and said, “Sorry, they are not for sale.”

Mother Qin already said in the birthday video that the key to treating his pheromone abnormality lies in these three spiritual plants; hence he cannot possibly sell them off.

Gu Liheng’s expression remained the same, and he nodded slightly, “If you don’t want to sell, are you willing to rent it out?” He said sincerely, “I need the Redthorn Ball’s liquid, we can discuss a good price for it.”

Su Ling thought for a moment, “Will it damage the plant?”

Gu Liheng: “Of course not.”

Nalu whispered some information to Su Ling, “It is impossible to use tough means to take raw materials from the spiritual plant, especially the advanced spiritual plant. If the spiritual plant is not willing, the raw materials they give will either be toxic or useless.”

Su Ling was surprised, so powerful? He felt quite relieved and asked in a low voice, “Is this President Gu’s background solid?”

Nalu nodded, “Very.”

Su Ling smiled and looked at Gu Liheng, “I can rent it to you, but apart from the Redthorn Ball, you have to take care of the other two plants as well.”

This way, he will save a lot of money! Su Ling couldn’t be happier, the spiritual plant that could catch this big President Gu’s attention is obviously not any ordinary treasure. If he took it back to the store today, he is afraid it will cause a lot of trouble. Temporarily storing it at President Gu’s side is obviously the right choice.

Gu Liheng: “No problem, you can just tell me how much you want for the rent.”

In his heart, Su Ling is treating President Gu as a free storage place, so he was embarrassed to mention the rent. “No need for rent, it’s fine provided you can keep them safe, and I can come to see them at any time. Also, if I can take them back anytime.”

A hint of surprise flashed through Gu Liheng’s eyes.

Nalu tugged his sleeve, and Su Ling turned to look at him, “What’s wrong?”

Nalu lowered his voice, “Do you know the price of Grade A spiritual plant’s raw materials?”

Su Ling was not very clear, but he does know that it is expensive. He questioned Nalu back, “Do you know any A-level spiritual plant specialist?”

It is not easy to collect raw materials of Grade A spiritual plants. Even Grade A spiritual plant specialists may not be able to take it successfully.  Their pheromone needs to be compatible with the spiritual plant too.

Nalu was choked by the question, and whispered, “You have a high affinity with them, maybe you can collect it? Many spiritual plant’s raw materials are renewable and can be harvested every day; hence just a day could earn you a lot of money!”

Su Ling thought about it and added a point to Gu Liheng, “You have to promise that I can take someone to see the plants at any time.” If the price of the raw materials is higher than hiring a Grade A spiritual plant specialist, he can always hire one and still earn the money, after it’s proven that he cannot do it himself.

Although they were whispering to each other, the rest of the people in the room were all Alphas. Their five senses were much stronger than them, so their words were heard entirely.

Gu Liheng: “I agreed to your request. You have already helped me a lot by renting it to me, but I still have to pay the rent. Other than the Redthorn Ball’s liquid, the Pearl Lopseed’s nectar and Golden Baby’s breath stem, I will let people collect it every day and give it to you.”

Su Ling was pleased, it’s like ‘being given a pillow when you are sleepy’. But soon he realized that he and Nalu were probably overheard. He smiled brightly to conceal his embarrassment, “That’s great, you are really a good tenant.”

Gu Liheng’s eyes stopped for a moment on his face and said, “It’s you who asked for less.” He had seen too many people doing ‘price gouging’ in business. When he caught the scent of Redthorn Ball, he was ready to lose big money, but he didn’t expect to achieve his goal so easily.

Su Ling smiled, “We can sign a contract now, then you can take them away.”

Gu Liheng tapped open his bracelet and asked his secretary to draft a contract. After that, he exchanged contact information with Su Ling and forwarded the fingerprint-certified contract to Su Ling.

After Su Ling read it, he pressed his fingerprint on the holographic screen. His gaze drifted to the name of the signature column beside, and he silently sighed. The words were beautiful, and they looked elegant and floaty, they must have been specially designed by someone. However, the signature was not easy to read, the Gu character was relatively clear to read, but what is the next character behind? Li? He stared for a few seconds before recognizing the last word as Heng. So President Gu’s name turned out to be Gu Liheng… Gu Liheng!

Su Ling looked up sharply at the man. This man’s name is exactly the same as his imaginary male god! His heart is beating fast, the same world setting, the same name. Did he(SL) really transmigrate into that novel?

In that novel, the cannon fodder shou has offended many people in order to chase the protagonist gong. Later, to take refuge, he married the male god with a strong background. In fact, Su Ling’s male god is only equivalent to a background character in the novel.  The purpose why the author created him is to enhance the ability of the cannon fodder shou and increase the obstacles between the gong and shou protagonist.

His male god didn’t have many scenes and only appeared more in other people’s talk. However, just those few times was enough to make Su Ling a fan. Although his male god didn’t like the cannon fodder shou, he has always born the responsibility of his partner and was very reliable. Su Ling keeps telling himself that such a person don’t exist in the real world and that the author only created him to increase the cannon fodder shou’s power. Still, Su Ling was attracted. No love, yet no abandonment; no intimacy, but the responsibility won’t be pushed away. It seems that no matter what happens, he is always there, very powerful.

Many times while reading the novel, Su Ling was very envious of the cannon fodder shou. Every time the cannon fodder shou seek death by doing something stupid, he really wanted his male god to divorce him, but until his male god was killed by the cannon fodder shou’s stupidity, he(GLH) has never filed for divorce.

The protagonist of the novel once asked his male god about it.

His male god’s answer was, he remembers very clearly – “Since I married him, he is my responsibility for life.”

Su Ling was heartbroken by this sentence. He had seen too many separations and deeply yearned for a stable relationship.

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and blurted out, “Are you married?”

Gu Liheng was stunned. Everyone was stunned. It was too suggestive for an Omega to ask an Alpha this question. And they are not in a private setting! Gu Liheng’s eyes fell on Su Ling face, trying to probe Su Ling’s intention for asking that question. He replied, “No.”

Su Ling then asked, “How old are you?”

As he asked that, Su Ling tried to recall how old was his male god when he gets married in the novel. Thinking back and forth, it seems that it was not explicitly mentioned. He only remembers that the cannon fodder shou was 19 years old and a freshman. On the other hand, it seems that something about the difference between the two was mentioned somewhere as well, which is nearly 10 years old. If this Gu Liheng is really his male god, then he should probably be around 29.

Nalu felt that the current situation is not right, he quickly caught Su Ling’s shoulders and said, “How can you ask this question!”

Gu Liheng stayed firmly at the top of the ranking for aged single Alpha. Many people talked about it during the last 2 years, and there were many not-so-good speculations circulating. The media that caused the rumours has collapsed and was taken over by the Gu Corporation. No one talked about President Gu’s single in old age anymore. One needs to know, there are very few excellent Alphas who are still unmarried after graduation, let alone finding one exceeded age 25.

Su Ling: “Is there any reason why I can’t ask?” When he answered that question, he was looking at Gu Liheng.

Gu Liheng’s expression did not change at all, “28, is this related to renting the spiritual plant?”

Su Ling shook his head, “It’s nothing, you…” He took a deep breath, “Do you know someone named Zhao Qi?”

Zhao Qi is the cannon fodder shou in the novel!

Su Ling gave a quick and firm refusal causing Father Su’s expression to darken instantly.

Zhao Han looked at Su Ling like an insensible child and spoke softly.

“Your father is doing this for your own good. If you don’t apply for system allocation now and wait until the graduation period, there will be more Omega applying. Then you will have a lesser chance of being paired with an excellent Alpha.”

Su Ling was unimpressed, “It doesn’t matter.”

Father Su snorted loudly, “After your 18th birthday, the government will no longer give you the Omega subsidies. If you are not getting married, can you support yourself?”

Su Ling raised an eyebrow, “So, the reason you want me to get married was because you were worried that you will have to support me instead?”

Father Su looked at him in surprise. This was not like what his eldest son will usually say, his eldest son always listened to him, without asking questions. He replied with a straight face, “The Su Family can afford to support you, but we cannot be laughed at just because you can’t marry.”

Su Ling was speechless, “I am only 18 years old and still very young.”

Zhao Han: “Your father didn’t mean that. 18 years old is indeed very young. Originally, it’s fine if you didn’t want to get married, but you didn’t even have a suitor. This… will inevitably make people gossip.”

Su Ling: “…”

Under normal circumstances, if you have a bunch of suitors at the age of 18, won’t your legs be broken?

Father Su: “The Su Family won’t support useless people, if you can’t go to the university, you have to get married!”

Su Ling felt that Father Su is super old fashioned, replied, “I will go to the university.”

Su Ling said with confidence, but the fact was he is not entirely sure. After all, he does not understand how is the exam here, but there are no better ways.

Father Su obviously doesn’t believe him, his face showing a furious expression, “Don’t think about delaying time, I’ve seen too many of such tricks. Do you want to wait until it’s too late, then gets married to someone with poor conditions? You want to let the Su Family be ridiculed from your birth to your marriage?”

Father Su stood up suddenly, “If you don’t agree, don’t tell anyone that you are my son!”

Father Su angrily strode out of the living room, while Zhao Han’s face showing obvious joy, she looked at Su Ling, “You, why are you so disobedient? Your father is doing this for your own good!”

Su Ling’s eyelids were slightly lifted, his expression a bit cold, “Really now? When Su Ao is 18, you will also make him apply for system matching?”

Su Ao jumped up, “I will not! I am not you, I will be admitted to the university.”

Su Ling’s mouth twitched, “Your mother said that making me apply for system matching is for my own good. Since it is a good thing, why are you rejecting it?”

Su Ao sneered, “You can’t get into university and don’t have any suitors. This is, of course, the best choice for you! Which Alpha with good conditions won’t go to university?”

Su Ling: So, going to university is to find a better marriage partner?

He speechlessly stared at Su Ao prideful look.

Zhao Han turned to Su Ling, “Consider your father’s words properly,” then she patted Su Ao’s shoulder and said, “Go back to you room to read.” Zhao Han led Old Second and Third away, so Su Ling returned to his room as well.

The next morning, Su Ling went downstairs with a backpack, while Father Su and the rest were eating breakfast.

Father Su wiped the corners of his mouth and looked at him, “You signed it?”

Su Ling calmly replied, “No.”

Father Su frowned sharply. He had an absolute authority at home, and Su Ling’s attitude was downright provoking him. In a deep voice, he scolded, “Do you think I was joking yesterday?”

Su Ling raised an eyebrow, “Were you? You know how to joke with me?”

Everyone’s expression, including Father Su, changed dramatically. Is this really Su Ling?

Red with anger, Father Su pointed to the door and yelled, “Get out, and don’t come back in the future!”

Su Ling followed the flow, walked out from the gate and called a taxi.

The Su Family’s living room was quiet for a while. Seeing that Father Su was still furious, Zhao Han soothingly comforted, “Don’t be angry, he was injured before this so he may not be sober.”

Father Su got even angrier, “Injured? Went to suicide for the sake of a senior, making such a big commotion and letting people made a laughing stock of him?” He slapped the table and said, “When he comes back, I’ll teach him. We were too gentle to him before this because he is an Omega!”

…

Su Ling told the driver the address written on the property certificate. The driver confirmed it and drove to the destination. The taxi was fast, and within a quarter of an hour, they reached in front of a luxurious but somewhat deserted shop. Su Ling paid the bill through his personal bracelet, and glanced at the balance of only two thousand, before thanking the driver and got off.

The word ‘Tian Ling Fragrance Bar’ was made of neon light tube and is dark at the moment. The store has 3 doors, the middle door is a large revolving door while there’s a small door on the left and right side of it. At this moment, only the small door on the right is open. Standing by the door was a man with flaxen hair, he looked at Su Ling for a moment, then waved at him.

Su Ling was a little surprised. This man looked younger than he thought. He walked over and asked, “Manager Nalu?”

Nalu laughed, “Just call me Uncle Nalu,” he patted Su Ling’s shoulder with a sigh, “You have grown so big in a blink of an eye.”

“Let’s go. We should go in and talk.”

Su Ling smiled and followed him into the store. The lobby of the fragrance bar is covered with marble floors, the dome is high, and was hung with gorgeous crystal lamps. There is a curved bar in front, and the sides are deck seats.

Su Ling took a whiff of the faint scent of flowers in the air and thought, if he didn’t know in advance where he was going, he would have thought that he went into a typical bar instead. Actually, a fragrance bar and regular bar have some similarities, like they are places for making friends, and they are open at night. However, the drinks in the fragrance bar are mainly floral drinks with aromas, while alcohol was just for fun. These floral beverages are specially made with a spiritual plant’s raw material, and only Omega can gather it from the spiritual plants. Su Ling checked a lot of information last night and got a general understanding of the spiritual plant.

The two sat on the front seat, and Nalu’s eyes stayed on Su Ling’s wrist for a moment. Then he  turned to face him, “Don’t do stupid things like this in the future.”

Su Ling nodded, “Absolutely.”

Nalu was very pleased, “You look better than ever before.”

Su Ling didn’t expect that comment, he asked, “You knew me before this?”

Nalu nodded, “I have been paying attention to you, but according to your mother’s request, I didn’t disturb you because she was worried that you might get swayed by your father. This arrangement made by your mother for you, your father does not know.”

He paused and added, “At that time, their relationship was already frayed.”

Su Ling is not surprised, his and Su Ao’s age can already explain a lot of things.

“I’m going to break away from the Su family.” Su Ling stated, and briefly retold Nalu what happened in the Su Family.

Nalu’s face has an angry expression, his lips moved as if he wanted to scold something. But considering Su Ling is here, he didn’t do it. He eased his emotions and said, “I agree with your decision. Although the profit in the store is meagre, it’s enough for you to enter the university, you…”

He hesitated but still continued to ask, “How is your pheromone now?”

Su Ling shook his nose in disgust, “Smelly.”

Nalu was amused by his reaction, “Do you want to apply for a medical major?”

Su Ling shook his head and replied, “No, the spiritual plant major.”

In this world, plants are divided into two types, one is a common plant like his previous world, and the other is a spiritual plant. The spiritual plant is divided into 5 levels that is S, A, B, C, and D. S is the highest level; the higher the level, the more intelligent and precious is the spiritual plant. Omega can use their pheromones to establish friendly relations with spiritual plants, allowing them to ask the spiritual plants to provide raw materials such as pollen and petals.
Spiritual plant’s raw materials are critical medical materials, at the same time, it can be made into a variety of fragrance products, drinks, perfumes, aromatherapy, and so on. These fragrance products have different effects, and they are very effective for Alpha and Omega. The products can stabilize emotions, and high-grade fragrance products could keep Alpha and Omega in estrus to stay conscious. Fragrant products made of spiritual plant raw materials are good for everyone, no matter young or old. From spiritual plant major, one will be learning about spiritual plant cultivation, raw material collection, fragrance production and more. The reason why Su Ling studied chemistry in his world was to become a perfumer in the future. This spiritual plant major is too suitable for his hobby.

Nalu looked at him, afraid of agitating him, his voice was light, “I know that the spiritual plant profession has always been the most popular with Omega, so it’s normal for you to like it.”

“But the major has an interview, which you need pheromones to have a certain affinity with a spiritual plant, have you ever think about it?”

Su Ling: “I have considered it. A total of 500 points in 5 written tests and 100 points in the interview, a grand total of 600 points. If one of the tests failed, one could still pass the test as long as the total score is excellent.”

Nalu’s eyes opened slightly, “You can get 480 points in the written test?”

Su Ling shrugged his shoulders: “Not really, but I will try my best. If I can’t pass the exam this year, I’ll wait until next year to redo.”

The 5 courses of the written test, except biology, the other subjects were elementary for him. Other than that, he read up biology notes last night. Not sure if this body has a good memory skill or other reasons, he can quickly remember the content of the biology course, especially related to spiritual plants.

Nalu smiled and teased, “Little school bully.”

Su Ling smiled, “Uncle Nalu, tell me about the store.”

Nalu’s smile stiffened, and he rubbed his eyebrows.

“After your mother died, there was no supply of B-level or higher spirit powder in the store. Our high-end customer base was lost, and the profit in the store was not very good these years.

He turned open his bracelet, and pulled up a report, then pointed out a fixed large amount of expenditure.

“Grade A spiritual plants that your mother deposited in the insurance company, according to your mother’s instructions, has been using the frozen treatment. And every year it requires a high cost, the funds in the store are only enough for daily operations.”

Su Ling: “We’ll take the spiritual plants back, then you can save money.”

Nalu nodded, “But we still need a specialist to take care of the spiritual plants,” he frowned. “It’s not easy because Grade A spiritual plants are too precious and I don’t have any Omega that I’m familiar with. I’m not assured no matter who takes care of the plants.”

Su Ling thought for a while, “Maybe I can try?”

The daily care for spiritual plant is relatively simple, all they need is just an Omega to release his/her pheromones to communicate with them, and give them proper nutrition. Su Ling is very curious about the communication with the spiritual plants.

Nalu hesitated for a moment. He had only heard that Su Ling’s pheromone was unpleasant, but he had never experienced it in person. After seeing him acting proactively, Nalu thought Su Ling has the confidence, so he nodded, “Alright.”

After some discussions, the two of them went to Capital insurance company. After undergoing strict identity verification, the insurance company determined that Su Ling ’s identity is correct, and two robust Alpha steadily moved the protective boxes containing 3 spiritual plants from the safe to the VIP room.

The manager looked extremely cautious. He reminded them, “Please check to make sure that everything is correct before taking it away. If there is a problem later, the company will not be responsible.”

Su Ling scanned his pupils, verified his fingerprints, and swiped his card in the card slot. After these procedures, the protective box makes a beeping sound. Secretly admiring how hi-tech it was, Su Ling reached out to lift the lid, and both the manager and Nalu spoke nervously at the same time, “Lightly.”

Su Ling looked at them and found that not only the two men were excited, but the two security guards were also excited and nervous as well. Su Ling couldn’t help being solemn too, he held the lid with both hands and tried to lift it up gently, but it didn’t budge. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he exerted some force all of a sudden to quickly open the lid. Instantly, a rich and charming fragrance wafted out, and Su Ling felt refreshed.

“Oh, as expected from a Grade A spiritual plant.” One of the security guards sighed.

Su Ling was reveling in the fragrance when he felt a cold and refreshing touch coming from his wrist. He lowered his head and saw a long, slender white petal wrapping around his left wrist that was holding the box, and the tip was protruding inwards along the edge of the gauze bandage. Shocked, he yanked his hand away.

The petals also seemed frightened, it straightened abruptly, and maintained an outward pose, looking out of line with the rest of its body.

“This…” Nalu was surprised.

He hadn’t finished his words yet when the manager’s communication device rang. Soon, the manager hung up and walked away to open the door respectfully. Standing at the door was a tall man with a straight suit. He was followed by 4 bodyguards in black, projecting an imposing picture.

The man’s eyes fell on Su Ling, and an unexpectation flashed through his eyes, “Sorry for this disturbance.”

Su Ling smiled, “We meet again. Is there something wrong?”

The author has something to say: Thank you for your support (づ￣3￣)づ╭?～

Su Ling glared at the door. He got out of bed and tried to open the door, but failed to open it. Then he looked down at the wrist of his left hand, the blood-stained from the white gauze on his wrist was very conspicuous. At the same time, he could feel the stabbing pain. He can’t stay here, this woman is sick!

Standing on the spot and randomly thinking about everything, Su Ling took a deep breath and walked to the desk next to the window, with the medicine and gauze he received on it. He picked up the medicine and read the instructions, pulled the stool to sit down, and removed the bandage. When the wound was exposed, he carefully observed it and was almost certain that the wound originated from a suicide. He pursed his lips and carefully applied medicine before changing the bandage.

This original body seemed to be only 17 or 18 years old. For him to do such a thing, he obviously had a very unpleasant experience. Moreover, such a stepmother, it is impossible to be happy. He wrapped his bandage, got up and walked to the bed. He took the paper thrown by the woman and read carefully.

‘Omega Marriage System Allocation Application Form: The system will select the Alpha that best matches your genes from the gene bank. After the pairing is successful, the Alpha will pick you up at your address within three days and go through the marriage procedures with you.

Remarks: This form adopts a completely voluntary principle, so please sign it by hand. The relevant department will conduct an authenticity check, and after confirming that it is correct, we will start matching you with a suitable partner.’

Marriage allocation?

When Su Ling recalled that woman’s words, she said because no one is willing to marry him, he has to apply for a system allocation. But he is still so young! And a man to boot…

No, that’s not right!

His eyes fell at the heading of the form, and there was a line in the upper right corner: For Omega use. He is no stranger to this word, as he has just finished reading a novel related to this keyword. Because the author wrote about his imaginary male god, he acted cute to the author. Then because the male god died in the novel, he sent the author a row of bloody knives[1].

Omega exists in an ABO world setting. In this world, people have six genders, male Alpha, Beta, Omega, female Alpha, Beta, Omega. Simply put, no matter male or female, the Alpha ones will be the gong, will not be pregnant; Beta can be gong and shou, but their fertility rate is not high; Omega is purely shou, with the highest fertility rate. Beta has the largest number of people, A and O are very rare, A is more than O, the strongest of the three, with O being the weakest in terms of strength.

‘Ten thousand mud horses’ ran across Su Ling’s heart. ABO’s world setting? Isn’t that fictional? It turned out to be true! And he is an Omega now? That means there will be estrus period, which he won’t be able to resist Alpha, and will even be ‘thirsty’? Without any hesitation, Su Ling tore the paper apart, he would never let the system assign him a husband. He likes men, but it doesn’t mean he likes any man. He threw the paper into the trash bin and thought for a moment. Then he started to rummage the room carefully and put useful things he found on the desk. To his delight, he found a ‘watch’ that looked like what the man used in the hospital. He carefully read the ‘watch’s’ manual.

The ‘watch’ is called a personal bracelet. It has the functions of a mobile phone and a computer and can pop up a holographic screen, very high-tech. The instructions were quite clear, and Su Ling soon knows how to use his bracelet. He opens the address book to understand how was this original body’s social circle. One can finish reading the address book with just a glance; Teacher, Father, Aunt Han, Second younger brother and Third younger brother, a total of five contacts. After a moment of pause, Su Ling switched to the diary. He hesitated, then unlocked the lock with his fingerprint.

It took him a long time to read the boy’s past. After reading it, he felt a little uncomfortable. The holographic screen showed the last page of the diary, May 19th.

“Today, I’m 18 years old, already a grown-up, must be brave! I wished to be able to enter the university, take care of mother’s shop. I will confess tomorrow, must be brave!”

Su Ling sighed, closed the diary, and checked the paper he discovered earlier. He found three pink-white cards in the drawer, all of which were words of confessions and blessings. All three were crossed out, which were obviously drafts. The bottom one has distinct folds, like it has been stained wet by water. He turned the card over, and the writing on the back was very messy.

“I’m a coward, I’m useless, no one will like me, I can’t go to university, I can’t take care of my mother’s shop, sorry mother, sorry…”

Su Ling exhaled and turned his head to look out of the window. The orange sunlight shining on the window was lovely. He placed the card back in the drawer and locked it. He continued to look at the bracelet to get more information. Sliding at the holographic screen, Su Ling saw an encrypted folder named ‘Mom’. The folder has two files in it, namely ‘Mom’s Gift’ and ‘Mom’s Shop’.

Mom’s gift file contains a total of 16 videos, which was birthday wishes from the age of 3 to 18. The last opened date of the latest video is May 19th, 00:00. Su Ling clicked on the final video, and a gentle woman with short hair and kind eyebrows appeared on the holographic screen. Her face was pale, and she doesn’t look like she is in good health. She sat on a wicker chair in the garden and smiled at the camera, “Ling Ling, happy 18th birthday. Mother is sorry for not be able to stay with you all the time.”

Tears burst into the woman’s eyes, “My poor child, is he not good to you? I’m so sorry, your growth requires an elder’s pheromone to appease it, so I can’t not send you away.” She wiped her tears and grinned reluctantly, “Congratulations to adulthood, mother’s shop is officially handed over to you today. It’s up to you on how to arrange the matter.”

Then with a careful look, she said, “What I am about to say next, you must remember carefully. Mother has been looking for ways to treat your pheromone abnormalities for the past two years. There are already clues, but unfortunately, mother’s time is running out.”

“You contact Uncle Nalu in the shop, he will take you to the Capital’s insurance company, where I have deposited 3 A-level spiritual plants. Only you can take them out if you go in person; your pheromone abnormality is related to them.”

Her gaze was sad, “Mother is really sorry, it was all because of my negligence that you suffered.”

She looked deeply at the screen, “Don’t marry someone who doesn’t love you in the future. Mother wishes you a happy, happy birthday, Ling Ling.”

Su Ling froze for a while before finally recovering. This woman looks exactly like his mother. He can’t help but wonder if this really him in another world? It took him a while to calm down his emotions. Reaching out and touched the back of his neck, Su Ling’s expression slightly loosened. It’s okay if there is hope for treatment. He doesn’t want to be stinky all his life. Just that he doesn’t know what is ‘spiritual plant’. This original body also mentioned in the diary, saying that he wanted to be admitted into the Spiritual Plant department.

Next, Su Ling opened the file named ‘Mom’s Shop’. There was a real estate certificate with the address of the shop and some related information. The name at the ownership box was Su Ling’s name. Other than a real estate certificate, there is a manual.

“The company was entrusted by Madam Qin Min, that after her son Su Ling’s 18th birthday, she will transfer the Tian Ling Fragrance Bar under her name to Su Ling’s name. The procedure has been completed and can be utilised at any time.”

There is also the contact information of the person in charge of the store, Nalu. Su Ling did not hesitate to contact Nalu right away. Just after he hung up the call, the door of his room was pushed open, so he immediately looked over.

A pretty boy rushed in. Immediately, Su Ling knew the identity of the other party, his stepmother’s eldest son, his second younger brother, 16-year-old Omega Su Ao.

Su Ao stayed two steps away from him, the pitch of his voice raised up, “You hit my mother?”

Su Ling glanced at his wrist and felt that violence is not a good idea. He stood up, causing the boy to take a step back vigilantly. Stooping down to pick up the bloody bandage from the trash bin, he replied with a calm and helpless tone, “She hit me and fell due to unstable footing.”

Su Ao snorted, “I knew it. Was thinking that you won’t be that bold, coward.”

He covered his nose in disgust, “Picking up something from the trash, so dirty. Since you didn’t do it, I will let you go.” As he said that, he raised his chin proudly and pulled the hem of his blue suit dress, “Dad bought this for me when he came back.” Then he turned to go out, “Come on, my mother said to get you for dinner together.” After that, he muttered, “Don’t know what mother is thinking, why we have to call you for dinner together…”

Su Ling threw the bandage into the trash bin and raised his eyebrows. This father, who has been working all year round, has returned. He was initially worried that he would be locked and starved. After washed his hands, Su Ling followed behind Su Ao. Su Ao walked proudly and said, “Dad specially came back to hold a 16th birthday party for me.”

Su Ling’s phoenix eyes squinted, “So good.”

The eldest son’s birthday didn’t even get a Happy Birthday wishes, but for the second son, he hurried back to hold a party, such bias. However, this is for the best, he won’t have any psychological burden no matter what he did.

Su Ao thought it was a compliment and was very satisfied.

On the dinner table, Su Ling can match all the people with the names in the address book except Teacher. During the entire dinner, 4 members of the Su Family enjoyed the meal like a family, while he was treated like air. However, Su Ling didn’t care. He ate his food seriously, the chef’s skill was excellent, the taste was delicious. He ate his meat with the vegetable and was very satisfied.

After dinner, Su Ling was hesitant whether to go back to his room or continue acting like air to listen to them chatting and collecting some news about this world. Then he heard Father Su saying, “Su Ling, come here.”

Su Ling followed Father Su to the living room sofa. Mother Su, Zhao Han sat on the side with a gentle face, while Old Second and Third sat side by side.
Father Su: “Have you signed the application form your mother gave you?”

Su Ling shook his head.

Father Su was displeased: “Your mother is correct, you have been rebellious recently.”

He took out a piece of paper and a pen and pushed it to Su Ling, “Sign it, if it’s fast enough, I can still attend your wedding before I go on a business trip.”

Su Ling looked down at the paper and saw the familiar application form. It was exactly same with the previous one, the one that had been turned into pieces and lying in the trash can.

“I won’t sign,” Su Ling looked at Father Su, “I won’t accept being paired by the system.”

Father Su’s expression darkened, and Zhao Han warmly persuaded: “Your father is thinking for your own good. You also know your situation, other than getting a matching by the system, it will be tough for you to find a partner.”

Father Su said sternly: “You are an adult, what do you want to do if you don’t get married?”

Su Ling was not intimidated by him at all. He honestly stated his plan, “I want to take a university entrance exam.”

There were many study notes in the bracelet, which are similar to modern knowledge, just that biology is vastly different. He has yet to graduate in his real world, so now that he is 18 years old, he must finish studies. Otherwise, he really doesn’t know what he can do.

A chuckle escaped nearby. Su Ling took a glance and saw Su Ao covering his mouth with a smile, “How could you possibly go to university?”

Su Ling pursed his lips, “How do you know I can’t pass the exam?”

Su Ao: “You are so stinky.”

Su Ling was very dissatisfied with personal attacks, but could not refute either: “… Is this even related to me taking the exam?”

Su Ao looked at him like a fool: “Nonsense, you are an Omega. Your pheromone is so stinky, how can you pass the exam?! Unless the rest of your subjects are all excellent.”

Su Ling was stunned, pheromones’ smell can affect whether he could go to university or not?

Father Su’s face was even more ugly: “You don’t even know anything about the exams, and you want to go to university?”

He was too lazy to argue, and pointed at the application form, “Sign!”

Su Ling’s attitude was firm: “I won’t sign.”

Even if he fails to enter university, he will not let the system assign him a marriage partner.

“Need to take good care of mom’s shop.”

Who’s talking?

Su Ling instantly opened his eyes and swept around. Everything was white in colour, and there was a faint smell of disinfectant in the air. This is clearly a ward. No one is here but him. A chill ran down his back. Su Ling quickly got up, turned his head and looked out the window.

Outside the window, the sun shone on the green leaves. The golden light gleams, very beautiful.

How could this be? Shouldn’t he be in the laboratory? The time is not right either. He did experiments for 2 days consecutively, and his last memory was at two in the morning. Could it be the headache he experienced during the experiment made him fall into a coma, and then he was taken to the hospital? He looked around, but he did not see his mobile phone and anything related to him, just some strange equipment at the bedside. There’s an ultra-thin LCD screen displaying figure/data that he cannot understand. All of a sudden, his eyes opened widely, the date in the lower right corner of the screen: Ephemeris Interstellar Year 1780, May 22nd.

He was startled. Next, he recalled of a weak young man’s voice he heard when he woke up. A chill rose from the soles of his feet; Su Ling immediately lifted the quilt to get out of bed. When his gaze fell to his right hand on the quilt, he paused, then without even wearing his shoes, he jumped out of bed and ran.

This is not his hand! His hands are not this pale and tender.

He rushed out of the ward and stood at the door for a second. Without any hesitation, he ran to the left. There was a corner to the right in front of him. A large area of sunlight shone from the corridor on the right.

He needs sunshine right now!

He stared at the lighted area while speeding up, but just before he reached the corner, he saw someone approaching from that direction. With an exclaim, Su Ling’s body leaned to the left, wanting to avoid the man, but his feet turned forward because of inertia, and his body crumbled towards the right. He panicked, unconsciously reaching out to grab the person he almost hit.

Not waiting for him to reach out, the man grabbed Su Ling’s hand in one hand and wrapped his waist in another hand, holding Su Ling firmly in his arms. The man instantly let go of his hand at the next moment, then a calm and pleasant male voice came out, “Be careful.”

“Hiss…”

Su Ling didn’t have time to appreciate the voice, as he was holding his left wrist and gasping in pain. That hurts! He just noticed that his wrist was covered with a layer of gauze, and he covered his hands, his face getting paler.

The pain is so real, it’s not a dream!

The man’s voice sounded again, “Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.”

Su Ling shook his head. His(SL) clothing was white in color, and his sleeves covered half of his palms. Even he himself didn’t realize he had injuries on his hands, “It’s not your fault.”

He raised his head and smiled. When he saw the man’s appearance, he paused slightly before continuing, “Thank you, if not for you, I would fall down.”

This man is too handsome!

Under his dark hair were heroic sword-like eyebrows, a pair of deep black eyes, a tall nose and thin lips. His figure should be at least 186cm, handsome and stylish.

The young man’s face was pale, but dimples appeared on his cheeks when he smiled, and he looked very soft. The man’s serious expression was slightly loosened: “You’re welcome.”

He glanced at Su Ling’s bare feet, “Do you need my help?”

Su Ling looked at the sunlight falling on his left shoulder and forced a smile, “It’s alright.”

He read many rebirth and transmigration novels before but never thought that this kind of thing would really happen to him. But with this current situation, he has no choice but to think in this direction. He felt like he could see the news header now – ‘A certain university student staying up late for days consecutively in the laboratory and suffered sudden death’. A thought flashed through his mind – ‘Staying late hurts the body!’

After accepting this speculation, he gently exhaled, and his tense emotions relaxed a little. Good thing he didn’t encounter a supernatural event in the daytime! As soon as he relaxed, his senses felt much sharper. Frowning, Su Ling wrinkled his nose and looked around. Then he looked at the man and asked, “Did you smell something bad?”

Right after that, Su Ling quickly followed with an adjective, “Like a rotten egg.” He couldn’t help guessing, “Who threw uneaten eggs here and left them to rot?” When he said that, his expression was obviously disgusted, indicating that he hated the smell very much.

The man’s eyelids slightly moved, his calm expression flashed for a second unexpectedly. The man was silent for a moment, then a small rectangular transparent sheet suddenly appeared in his hand, and he handed it to Su Ling, “You may need this.”

Su Ling pointed at the sheet in confusion, “This is?”

The man was about to answer when a low, clear sound came from the black ‘watch’ on his wrist. He handed the sheet to Su Ling, and Su Ling subconsciously pinched it. The man pressed down at one side of the ‘watch’. A small earphone popped up. After putting on the earphone, the man tapped his finger on the dial. He listened silently for a while before saying, “We will have a meeting in 15mins.” Then he took off the earphone and skillfully put it back on the ‘watch’.

Su Ling looked at his series of movements curiously. This ‘watch’ seems to be a mobile phone?

The man looked at him and pointed to the round button on the wall of the ward door behind him, “You can press the call button if you need a doctor.”

Su Ling looked back and thanked him with a smile, “Alright, thank you.”

A slight nod and the man strode past him and left.

Su Ling looked down at the thin sheet in his hand. Then he heard footsteps, when he looked up, he saw four men in black suits came over and stood at the door of the ward where the man had come out. Four pair of eyes fell on him, looking at him differently.

Su Ling was confused when he suddenly realized that those people might be thinking he has some ulterior motives. He smiled at the bodyguards and said, “I was just passing by.” After that, he turned and walked back. Su Ling felt a little nervous in his heart because he doesn’t know what is his identity right now, and whether he has any relatives. Just when he was about to arrive back at the ward, a woman with delicate makeup and a petite figure approached him. There was also a male doctor in a white coat next to her.

The woman saw him and glared at him. Then she quickly stepped forward, with a helpless and concerned tone, “Do you know how worried I was? Why did you run around?”

Someone came out of the ward beside them and muttered, “So damned smelly.” The door slammed shut.

The woman grabbed the transparent sheet from Su Ling’s hand and turned her back to the doctor. Her expression was a bit ugly, but her tone sounded very gentle, “Don’t you know to put on the isolator before you go out?” As she said that, she placed the thin sheet on the back of Su Ling’s neck.

Su Ling was stunned by the woman’s seemingly split personality and didn’t have the time to stop her. When the sheet was attached, he shrunk his neck a bit. Then he reached out to touch the back of his neck; quite fitting, there wasn’t any discomfort.

The woman warned, “Don’t take it off, you can wear it now.”

The doctor added, “Yes, your condition is stable now so the isolator will not affect your health. It’s better to wear it. I will give you a body checkup.”

Su Ling then withdrew his hand and followed the doctor into the ward. He didn’t say a word during the whole process and only observed silently.

After the doctor’s examination, he sighed, “For the wound on your wrist, you can just apply some medicine on it. But your pheromones is still abnormal, and there isn’t any way to cure it at the moment.”

The woman sighed and looked at Su Ling with pity, “Don’t be sad, there will be a way.”

Su Ling took a glance at her and felt that she is wasting talent for not being an actress.

The doctor sighed, “Madam Su is really a good mother.”

The woman’s face revealed a helpless expression, “This stepmother is not good. Look at this child, Su Ling. He usually doesn’t even say anything to me. I’m still not good enough.”

Su Ling’s eyes flashed with surprise, it’s the same name as him!

The doctor calmed the woman with two sentences, “He can be discharged from the hospital now, and please make sure he is in a  constant positive mood.”

The woman said her thanks and asked people to help Su Ling with the discharge procedures before leading Su Ling home. Sitting at the back seat with Su Ling, she sighed and stopped talking after finished some acting to comfort him.

Su Ling also didn’t speak, he only stared at the passenger seat with a complicated expression. He discovered that ever since he had the isolator on, he didn’t smell any rotten eggs smell again! When the doctor gave him an examination, he found that the air was good. He thought that it was the ward door that has isolated the odour from coming in, but when he left the corridor, he still didn’t smell it.

Thinking back of that woman’s attitude, plus the name of the sheet ‘isolator’ and timing when it was applied, he has a very terrible conjecture. The smell of rotten eggs shouldn’t be emitted from him, right?!

This conjecture was quickly confirmed.

After the woman led him to his room, and there are no other people around, she stopped pretending to be nice. She sneered at Su Ling, “Why are you so thick-skinned? Dare to run around with such a stink, our Su family’s face has been thrown away by you.”

“Reflect yourself properly.” The woman said, pushed him into the room and closed the door.

Su Ling staggered forward, and when he corrected his footing, the door is already closed.

Su Ling: “…”

Su Ling lifted his foot and randomly kicked the door, then looked at the room. His top priority right now is to clarify the situation. The room is mainly white, simple and clean; it looks cold. The space is not very large, but the structure is very complete; it came attached to a bathroom. Staring at the full-length mirror beside the wardrobe for a while, Su Ling finally strode over. At first sight of the person in the mirror, his heart beats wildly.

This is not him!

Although they looked similar, he can confirm that it was not him. The one in the mirror was younger than him, similar to when he was 18 years old.

The young man in the mirror was pale, with slightly long black hair, and his bangs have crossed his eyebrows. Underneath the bangs is a pair of light brown phoenix eyes with a slightly tight expression, looking quite cold. The young man’s facial features were almost the same as him. However, he often conducts experiments, so his skin quality is worse, and he never leaves such long bangs because it will hinder him.

Su Ling raised his hand and picked at his bangs. The young man in the mirror did the same thing. He sighed, it seems that he really did reborn in another body. This familiar face and the same name made him wonder if this is himself in another world. He raised his eyebrows and smiled at the youth in the mirror, “I will look after your mother’s shop.”

After he finished speaking, he approached the mirror, stretched his neck to look at the back of the neck. He hesitated, and then he removed the isolator. After a while, he caught a whiff of a slight smell of rotten eggs. This is really what he smells like!

Su Ling pinched the isolator, his expression complicated. Obviously, that man earlier totally understood what was going on; otherwise, he would not give him the isolator. Thinking back, when he asked the man if he smelled anything and looked disgusted, he must have looked stupid. Fortunately, they don’t know each other. Su Ling placed the isolator back and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After a bath, heavy sleepiness struck as he lay in bed and soon fell asleep.

…

“Dong Dong Dong…” Impatient knocks could be heard from the door.

When Su Ling opened his eyes and saw the white ceiling, he was stunned for a while. It took him a moment to react that he is now in the Su family.

“Why didn’t you answer me if you are awake?” Su Ling was just sitting up on the bed when the door was pushed open. His stepmother walked to his bed and frowned at him.

His stepmother’s figure is petite, but she has a big temper. She snorted, “Pretending to be dead? Don’t die at our Su House if you want to die.” After she said that, she threw a paper and pen in on the quilt, “Sign it.”

Su Ling expressionlessly looked at his stepmother. Dare to disturb his sleep, and yet acting so arrogant. How annoying! But the other party is a woman and also an older generation, plus he still doesn’t understand the situation so he can’t mess things up.

Zhao Han was a little stunned, her heart feeling inexplicable, she had never seen Su Ling revealing any expression of resistance. She was too used to Su Ling’s cautious, weak and compliance look.

“What are you doing?” Zhao Han roared, her tone was higher than before, and the pitch at the end was a little sharp, “I am doing this for your own good. If you don’t apply for a system matching, are you expecting someone would be willing to marry you?”

Su Ling’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t help laughing. When he discovered that he likes men, he has no plans to marry a wife, and he definitely didn’t plan to get married out.

How baffling!

This laugh was a straightforward mocking in Zhao Han’s eyes. She was so angry that she took a step forward, grabbed the pen, while her other hand grabbed Su Ling’s wrist to force the pen into Su Ling’s hand.

“Ah!” Sudden pain came from his wrist made Su Ling leaned forward. He raised his hand and struggled to break away.

Zhao Han has yet to put the pen in Su Ling’s hand when she got hit by his struggle. His hand managed to hit the side of her face. That caused Zhao Han to stepped back a few steps. Her high heels couldn’t stand firm, and she fell to the ground. Zhao Han covered her face and froze. Standing up from the ground, she pointed at Su Ling’s hand, shaking, “Are you rebelling? You dare to hit me! Just wait!”

When she reached the door, her footsteps stopped, and she turned back, fiercely said, “If you don’t sign, don’t even hope of getting out.”

“Bang!” The door made a loud noise when it hit the door frame.
