It was fragrant in the garden, the low-grade spiritual plants and the 3 Grade A spiritual plants were waving their branches and leaves. They move in unison, shaking slowly, like waves blown by the breeze. The young man was dressed in white, half-leaning on the recliner beside him, while looking at the holographic screen in front of him intently, as if a scene from a painting.

Gu Liheng paused in hesitation, but in the end, he turned around to leave, not wanting to disturb that picture of silence.

Su Ling was looking at the information about Xian Mo Yu when his wrist was suddenly caught by Golden Baby’s breath vines and pulled outwards. He turned his head subconsciously and looked out. A hint of unexpectant flashed through his eyes when he saw the person at the door.

When did his male god arrive?

Seeing Gu Liheng about to leave, he called out, “President Gu,” then stood up and walked towards Gu Liheng, “are you looking for me?”

Gu Liheng glanced at Su Ling without any expressions but made him looked very serious. He explained, “Darry said you are in a bad mood.”

Thinking about it for a moment, Su Ling realized that he was probably too silent on their way back to the villa.

Gu Liheng’s tone was calm as he comforted, “Though your trouble cannot be treated now, it does not mean that there’s no treatment in the future, don’t be too disappointed.”

Su Ling smiled, his phoenix eyes lightly curled up, and his eyes were bright, “Are you worried about me?”

Gu Liheng’s eyes stayed on his face for a moment before replying, “En.”

Su Ling’s eyes curled even more, “Why are you worried about me?”

Gu Liheng has never thought about this question before. When Darry mentioned about this matter, all he wanted to do was to comfort Su Ling. He thought for a moment and got the answer.

“You make me feel like we are friends. Other than that, you are still too young.”

Ever since Gu Liheng was young, whenever the people around talked to him, they will use either cautious or respectful tone. Very few people can be like this young man in front of him. His natural attitude made him feel very relaxed. Gu Liheng still remembers the day they first met in the hospital. Although the young man did not mention it, Gu Liheng knew that he had amnesia, at least a part of his memory was lost. Otherwise, it is impossible not to recognize the smell of his own pheromone. For this reason, he could not help wanting to remind the young man(about general things), and worrying about him.

Su Ling’s mouth curled as he rebutted, “I’m not young anymore, I’m an adult now.”

Gu Liheng looked at him without speaking, using his silence to say, ‘See, you are still a child.’

Su Ling also realized his emphasis is making him looked childish. He approached Gu Liheng, not stopping until the two were less than one fist apart. Usually, he won’t notice, but now that they are so close together makes Su Ling realize how large is the gap between their height. When he looked straight forward, he could only see the other party’s skin, around 5 cm from the collarbone, that means their height difference is at least 15 cm. His words were choked in his throat, then he reached out and poked Gu Liheng’s shoulder, “I’m at the age when I can get married. ‘Some people‘ even persuaded me to apply for system allocation before!” After that, he raised his eyes and met Gu Liheng’s downward gaze, “Children are not allowed to get married, so you have to see me as an adult.”

It was Gu Liheng’s first time in getting along with an Omega at his age, he couldn’t help but think that he can understand why Omega was so popular. Really cute. He nodded and said, “Okay.”

Su Ling was satisfied with the answer and asked him, “Didn’t you went to work this morning?”

“We are closed on the weekend, but I had an urgent meeting.” Gu Liheng replied.

Su Ling pointed at the recliner he was sitting on before, offered, “Want to sit down together? It’s very comfortable here.”

The 3 spiritual plants were obviously in a very good mood. They bathed in the sun, generously exuding fragrance in the air, giving people a comfortable feeling and gave them energy. This is a paradise for everyone.

Gu Liheng nodded, “Okay.”

Domi soon moved another recliner to the garden and set it side by side with Su Ling’s recliner. Then he changed to a bigger umbrella, so that it will cover the two lounge chairs under its shadow, and brought two glasses of juice.

Su Ling took a sip and praised Domi, “You are an excellent housekeeper.”

Domi was pleased, its eyes on the electronic screen were shining with pleasant blue light, “Beautiful Omega guest, you are really a lovable guest.”

Su Ling laughed. Domi waved at him and left. When Su Ling turned his head, he saw Gu Liheng looking at him and raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong?”

Putting his hand on the first button of his suit, Gu Liheng asked, “Do you mind if I take off my coat?”

Su Ling said, “Of course I don’t mind,” he glanced at the suit on Gu Liheng’s body. “But I think you should change to something casual.” Upon saying that, Su Ling lifted his own leg to show Gu Liheng the soft material of his casual pants, “Your body also needs a holiday.”

Gu Liheng followed his advice and left to change. When he returned, he saw Su Ling frowning at the holographic screen. He has seen him reading the biology textbook more than once before, and he knew that Su Ling wanted to go to university to study the spiritual plant. He asked: “Are you worried about the exam?”

One of the tests to enter the spiritual plant major is a professional interview. Since the result Su Ling gotten from the doctor today is not good, it would mean that his professional interview will not optimistic.

Su Ling turned his head to look at him and said, “No, I will try my best in the exam. If I can’t get through, I don’t mind repeating for another year.” After that, he asked, “Have you heard of Xian Mo Yu before?”

Gu Liheng was a little surprised by his question and nodded, “Yes, I heard of it before. Our Gu company established a special department last year to search for the legendary spiritual plants, and Xian Mo Yu is one of them.”

Su Ling quickly asked, “Have you found it?”

Gu Liheng: “No, they leave no trace. The most detailed record is only hand-painted portrait. There were multiple versions of hand-painted portrait for almost every Grade S spiritual plants, and each of them was very different.”

Su Ling sighed, it was similar to what he read, this is why he was frowning. The data might look like a lot, but it has no reference value. The only certain point is that Xian Mo Yu will absorb nutrients from other spiritual plants.

Gu Liheng: “Do you want to find Xian Mo Yu?”

Su Ling nodded and told Gu Liheng about his situation. Then he said, “It’s not necessarily related to Xian Mo Yu, but it was very likely.”

Gu Liheng: “I will tell you if I have any news.”

Su Ling thanked him with a smile, “Thank you.” After that, he hesitated and asked, “Is the Redthorn Ball liquid enough for you in just one month?”

Frowning slightly, Gu Liheng replied, “It was just an estimation, so I’m not sure.” But connecting to what Su Ling was talking about, it is not difficult to guess his intention in asking the question. “Do you want to use them to attract Xian Mo Yu?”

Su Ling nodded honestly, “The final exam in the 15th. I have more than 2 months off, so I want to take them to the place where Xian Mo Yu appeared previously, according to the information I have here.” Next, he quickly added, “Redthorn Ball can stay in the villa. If the spiritual plants can really attract Xian Mo Yu, 2 Grade A spiritual plants are enough.”

Gu Liheng’s gaze fell on his face, “You are good to me.”

If Xian Mo Yu really exists, the stronger the temptation, the higher the chance, it’s that simple. This young man knew about it, but he is still willing to leave Redthorn Ball behind, just for his sake.

Laughing, Su Ling said, “Of course I’m good to you.” You are my male god! And I want to marry you!

But Su Ling swallowed those words into his stomach, so as not to scare off Gu Liheng. Both of them know about each other for only a short period. With Gu Liheng’s serious personality, he definitely won’t believe if he(SL) really confessed. He might even think that he(SL) is not serious about feelings.

Gu Liheng: “Why?”

A lot of people were good to him, or he should say a lot of people wanted to please him, but those people have a purpose in doing so. Some hoped to get something from him while some wanted money. But the young man didn’t want it. Instead, he was willing to lend a rare spiritual plant to him for free, only asking for extra care for other spiritual plants and their raw materials.

Su Ling’s smile became deeper, “I asked you this same question not long ago.” He replied, “Of course it is because we are friends. It’s normal to be good to friends.”

Gu Liheng looked at him as a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Staring at his mouth, Su Ling said, “You laugh naturally this time.”

Instantly stunned, Gu Liheng’s smile disappeared, and he looked more serious than usual.

Su Ling was stunned, “What’s wrong?”

Gu Liheng got up and stood there for two seconds. He raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, his expression calmed down, “It’s nothing. I still have a document that I need to sign. I’ll return to my study now.”

Su Ling looked at his back with a frown. He has this nagging feeling that Gu Liheng became flustered for a moment when he realized that he was laughing naturally. But how is it possible? There is nothing bad about laughing, it must be an illusion. Taking a deep breath, Su Ling felt refreshed once again. He leaned against the recliner and circled the places mentioned in the information. Organizing those into a folder, he returned his focus at the biology textbook.

With a serious expression, Gu Liheng sat on the large chair in the study. In the holographic screen in front of him, a gentle middle-aged man looked surprised as he asked, “President Gu, something happened?” It has been more than three years since their last contact. The man thought Gu Liheng would never contact him again.

Gu Liheng’s thin lips slightly pursed, “I just smiled,” he paused before adding, “naturally, and I didn’t even realize it.”

The elegant man’s eyes are bright, and his tone is pleasantly surprised, “This is a good thing. Your symptoms are likely to improve.”

However, Gu Liheng frowned. “No, when I knew about it,” he lowered his eyes and clenched his fists in his fingers. He continued, “I subconsciously panicked. My smile quickly disappeared, and my expression turned stiff.”

The man’s complexion became cautious, “Are there any other symptoms besides panic? Is there a voice criticizing you, just like before?”

Gu Liheng’s jaw tightened, “Yes.”

The man looked at him, “I still propose targeted therapies. What makes you laugh?”

Gu Liheng hesitated, not speaking.

The man patiently and gently said, “You can trust me, any answer you have is just a basis for consultation, I won’t judge you.”

Gu Liheng: “I have a friend.” For a 28-year-old, this is a ridiculous answer.

The man didn’t show any strange expression. His face was calm as he pondered for a moment, “Three years ago, I suggested that you quit your job, but you refused. Now, I still propose this suggestion. Working for a long time will make you subconsciously maintain a serious expression to match the ‘correct expression’ instilled in you from childhood, you cannot relax in this kind of surrounding. Also, I suggest that when you are not working, you can spend more time with your friend. A relaxed environment is very beneficial to you.”

Gu Liheng remained silent for a long time before replying, “I will seriously consider your suggestion, thank you.”

The man smiled and said, “You don’t have to be polite, if you have any questions, you can always contact me.”

Gu Liheng nodded and ended the communication. He sat for a while and contacted his personal assistant, to let him organize all the important work of the company in the next three months to him. Then he contacted the regional managers.

A few days later, Su Ling found that Gu Liheng became very busy all of a sudden, and he often ate dinner alone. However, he didn’t think too much about it as the university entrance exam is about to begin.

Su Ling raised his eyebrows in surprise and sat down opposite Gu Liheng. He poked his cheek with his index finger and slightly tilted his head to a side, asking, “Do I not look alright to you?”

Su Ling was good-looking, so this action looked very cute. Gu Liheng paused for a few seconds and shifted his eyes away, “Zhao Qing contacted me because his brother gave you some troubles, and apologized to me for the trouble.”

Su Ling blinked and asked, “Why does he apologize to you?” Then thinking of Zhao Qing’s attitude, the corners of Su Ling mouth curled up; Zhao Qing probably misunderstood his relationship with Gu Liheng.

Gu Liheng didn’t know what Zhao Qing was thinking, and analyzed the reason reasonably, “I told him not to trouble you anymore. Although it was not his fault this time, it has a lot to do with him.” Then, he looked at Su Ling and asked, “What’s actually happened?”

Su Ling roughly recounted the incident to Gu Liheng because he didn’t want Gu Liheng to feel that there are a lot of troubles around him. He laughed and brushed it off with a sentence, “High school students making mischief, don’t bother with it.”

Gu Liheng frowned slightly, “It’s too inappropriate,” he paused and continued, “Why must Zhao Qing smell your pheromone?”

Su Ling recalled Zhao Qi’s words and helplessly shrugged, “Probably because Zhao Qing heeded your warning and warned Zhao Qi to not seek troubles with me. Hence, Zhao Qi misunderstood Zhao Qing, thinking that his brother took a fancy to me. That’s why he wants to make Zhao Qing sober by smelling my pheromone so not to be fooled by my looks.”

Gu Liheng’s gaze fell on Su Ling’s face when he heard that. The young man’s skin was very pale. His permed bangs slightly covered his eyebrow, giving him a bright and obedient aura. His narrow and long phoenix’s eyes were slightly curled up, and his eyes were clear. Compared with many good-looking people he has seen, Su Ling is no less inferior.

Su Ling noticed his gaze and his eyes curled up, “How does President Gu think I look?”

Gu Liheng looked away slightly and answered, “Very good.”

Su Ling’s eyes curved even more with the joy, and his eyes shone brighter, “Then, will you dislike me because of the smell of my pheromone?”

Gu Liheng met Su Ling’s eyes and said, “No, it is not good to judge people by their pheromone.” He paused for a moment before adding, “The abnormality of your pheromone is likely to be curable. I know an expert in the pheromone field. Do you need me to introduce that person to you?”

Su Ling laughed and asked, “Are you talking about the same person Darry mentioned? He said he will help me make an appointment.”

Gu Liheng nodded, “Alright, Darry is more familiar in this.”

Darry told Su Ling about the appointment the next day, it will be 8:30am on the coming Saturday.

…

On Saturday morning, Su Ling and Darry went to the spiritual plant room. Su Ling rubbed the leaves of the 3 spiritual plants and greeted them, then Darry began to harvest the raw materials. After the harvest, Su Ling found that the 3 spiritual plants were more active than usual, and their branches were waving towards the window.

Darry handed Su Ling the bottle containing the nectar and stem, then explained, “They want to go out. Although they have a complete light system in the room, they still prefer natural light.” Recalling some information from his mind, Darry said, “They have stayed indoors for 10 days but have been frozen for 16 years before this. It’s time for them to go out and get some sunlight.”

Su Ling looked out the window and agreed, “The sun is good today, I will move them out.”

With butler robot Domi’s help, the 3 spiritual plants were quickly transferred to the front yard garden. There are many types of flowers in the garden, many are ordinary plants, but there are also a few low-grade spiritual plants. After the 3 spiritual plants arrived, the low-grade spiritual plants bloomed more brilliantly, and their foliage shook with the breeze. The fragrance dispersed in the air becomes stronger and stronger.

Su Ling looked at the 3 waving plants and smiled, “They are pleased.”

Darry nodded, the joyful feeling was conveyed to him through his pheromone, “Yes.” He glanced at the time and reminded, “Let’s go, we need to go to the hospital.”

As Su Ling turned to walk out, one of the Golden Baby’s breath curly vines straightened and gently curled around his wrist. Stopping, Su Ling walked back to touch its flower and comforted, “I will come to see you again once I’m back from the hospital. I have an off day today, so I can stay with you for a long time.” His words seemed to work, and the vine slowly let him go.

Twenty minutes later, the two arrived at the Central Hospital. Su Ling discovered that this hospital was the one he was previously hospitalized in. Darry handed him a white card, explaining, “This is an appointment card. You can find Doctor Ni An on the 3rd floor, in the pheromone department. I have to go to the 2nd floor to deliver the Redthorn Ball liquid. Please contact me when you are done with your appointment.”

Su Ling nodded, he knew about the fact that Darry would head directly to the hospital after harvesting the Redthorn Ball liquid every day. He remembered the time when he met Gu Liheng for the first time, Gu Liheng should be just leaving after a hospital visit. Su Ling tried to recall the content of the novel. Gu Liheng was not mentioned much in the novel, there were even lesser regarding his relatives and friends. He decided to ask Darry about the relationship between the patient and Gu Liheng later when they leave.

Entering the pheromone department on the 3rd floor, Su Ling was able to find Doctor Ni An smoothly with the appointment card. Doctor Ni An has white curly hair and small wrinkles on his face. With the average life span around 300 years old on the planet, and also gene modification technology for beautification is very advance, it only shows that Doctor Ni An is quite old.

A hint of expectation appeared in Su Ling’s heart. Older people are more knowledgeable and might have seen patients with a similar situation before.

“Child, are you Su Ling?” Doctor Ni An asked gently.

Su Ling nodded, “Yes, Doctor Ni An.”

Doctor Ni An walked over to the detector on the right and waved at him, “Come here. Remove your isolator and do a bodycheck first.”

Su Ling followed the doctor’s instructions, removed his isolator, and stood on the footprint indicator of the detector. An unpleasant odor emanated from the gland at the back of his neck, which a series of codes and data began to appear on the electronic screen of the detector. Su Ling stared at it for a while, but he couldn’t understand it at all. 5 minutes later, Doctor Ni An entered a row of data, and the data was connected to form a line. Su Ling’s result was processed in the same way, and the two lines almost overlapped. Ni An pressed the close button, his eyes fell on Su Ling’s face, and he softly sighed, “It’s really you.”

Su Ling looked at the lines on the screen, puzzled, “Doctor Ni An knows me?”

Ni An nodded and said nothing more, only asked him to reattach his isolator, and continued to do 2 more tests. When the inspection is completed, Ni An asked him to sit on the stool. After reading the result for a while, Doctor Ni An raised his head to look at Su Ling and said, “Sorry, boy. I still can’t help you.”

Su Ling shook his head, “It’s okay,” he paused before asking, “Why do you say “still”?”

Ni An’s head lifted slightly, with memories in his eyes, “16 years ago, Ms. Qin visited me. At that time, her physical condition was terrible but she still insisted on studying your situation with me.” He emotionally continued, “She is an amazing spiritual plant specialist. If she didn’t look for me, I would not even know that Planet Belle has such a powerful spiritual plant specialist. We studied the case for a long time, and finally found clues from the 3 spiritual plants owned by Ms. Qin.”

“We found a few unknown, nearly transparent spherical particles in their petals. The smell of this kind of particle is exactly the same as the smell of your pheromone. Later we tested and experimented with the particles in various tests. After many analyses and speculations, we deduced that your abnormality is probably because Ms. Qin accidentally consumed this kind of particles during pregnancy.”

Su Ling thought of the video of Mother Qin’s birthday greetings and felt a little upset.

“Ms. Qin was very self-blaming. We have been working hard to investigate what this substance is but only found a similar description in the spiritual plant anecdote, which is probably the pollen of the legendary Grade S spiritual plant Xian Mo Yu[1].”

“Xian Mo Yu is very powerful and will actively absorb all nutritious substances around it. We have always believed that the spiritual plants in her hand were attacked by Xian Mo Yu, which caused the perp to leave behind its pollen. It’s a pity that Xian Mo Yu only appeared in the legend. We investigated for a long time, but still no news. We only found some information that Xian Mo Yu often actively attacked advanced spiritual plants.”

Ni An sighed, “Ms. Qin originally wanted to use her 3 Grade A spiritual plants to attract Xian Mo Yu, but her body couldn’t hold on, so this plan could not be implemented. Later on, no one knows where those 3 spiritual plants went.”

Su Ling: “They were frozen by… my mother to store in an insurance company.”

Ni An thought of the recent news, suddenly came to a realization, “This is indeed more secured. Spiritual plant flourishes for only 20 years, so if she didn’t do this, there would be too little time for you to use them to implement your mother’s plan when you grow up.”

Su Ling: “My mother only said that my abnormality is related to the 3 spiritual plants, but she didn’t mention her plan.”

Ni An was not surprised, “This is normal because it was just one of our inferences. The existence of Xian Mo Yu is not certain. We could only determine that your abnormality is related to 3 spiritual plants.”

Ni An looked at him: “In these years, other than having an abnormal smell of pheromones, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Su Ling shook his head.

Ni An pondered, “I have done a lot of research afterward. The energy contained in the spherical particles is potent and can absorb all kinds of spiritual plant nutrients. I took a look at your body test results. The energy in your body is concentrated near your glands. According to the research results, the energy of the spherical particle will not only make your pheromone smelly but also have a very positive impact on you.”

Su Ling was stunned. His affinity with spiritual plants was not inherited? Then he nodded, “My affinity with spiritual plants is quite strong.” He thought about it and realized not only the affinity but also his sense of smell is very strong, though Su Ling does not know whether it has anything to do with the particle or not.

A smile appeared on Ni An’s face, “If your mother knows about this, she might blame herself less.” Then he looked at Su Ling, “Spiritual plant specialist has to deal with hundreds of spiritual plants every day. When making products, especially beverages, they often need to try it first by themselves. The particles are small and transparent, and when mixed amid Grade A spiritual plant pollens, the bad smell is very light, so please don’t blame her for accidentally consuming it.”

Su Ling nodded, “I don’t blame her.”

Ni An smiled, “Ms. Qin didn’t tell me your name until her death. She originally hoped that you could be cured so that no one would know about your infantile abnormal pheromone, so as not to be laughed at. She also didn’t tell me about the whereabouts of the spiritual plants, because she doesn’t want anyone to know who the next owner of the spiritual plant is, so as not to put you in danger.” He added with emotions, “You are a good boy, and her hard work was not in vain.”

Su Ling felt a bit upset, Mother Qin loves her child very much.

Ni An: “You are in good health, but I’m sorry that I can’t help with the abnormality in your pheromone. I will transfer related information and our previous findings back to you, I hope those can help you.”

Su Ling quickly gave his thanks.

Ni An: “Remember to inform me if something happened. I have been in the medical field for more than 200 years, and you are the only unsolved patient. If you managed to find the root cause, you might be able to make an antidote for yourself.”

Su Ling thanked Ni An again.

After leaving the pheromone department, Su Ling met with Darry on the first floor. He was thinking about Doctor Ni An’s words, so he was quiet all the way back. Darry looked like he has something to say several times, but he didn’t speak in the end. Darry thought the result was not optimistic; this kind of thing, no matter how one tries to comfort, it is useless. Darry sent Su Ling back to the villa and left, leaving only a piece of warm advice to have a good rest.

Su Ling head directly to the garden, and the fragrance he could smell in the garden was refreshing. Feeling refreshed, he asked Domi to get him deck chair, then he sat beside the garden to read the information Ni An sent to him.

After Gu Liheng finished his meeting, he came to the garden and saw this scene.

[1] 仙魔芋/xiān mó yù – This name was an imaginary name created by the author so it doesn’t exist in the real world. Banana cannot use the name in English because directly translated, XMY will become Immortal Demonic Taro (like the name of an ingredient from some random xianxia novel :v), which I can tell you, XMY is not a taro at all XD

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

“Sorry, Qi Qi is just speaking nonsense, he doesn’t mean it.” Zhao Qing felt that Su Ling’s relationship with Gu Liheng is not simple just by looking at the sachet in his hand and hurriedly apologized on his brother’s behalf.

Su Ling pursed his lips and said, “Tell this to the police.”

Zhao Qi immediately panicked, “You called the police?”

The driver was stunned and poked his head out of the driver’s seat, “When did you call the police, no, I mean, why did you call the police?”

Su Ling glanced at him and said, “Everyone with a brain knows that when affected by pheromones, removing the isolator will only make the situation worse.”

The one-sided reaction will affect both sides and intensify the effect. Not to mention, the route the driver used does not go to the fragrance bar at all. It was just a coincidence that he called the police, he did not expect this matter to be related to Zhao Qi. After he said that, the sound of a police car’s siren could be heard approaching them.

Zhao Qi nervously grabbed Zhao Qing’s arm, “Brother, what should I do?” He glared at Su Ling, “Call them and say you are fine.”

Su Ling found that to be a little funny, and asked, “Why do you think it is possible? You have troubled me again and again, so why do you think I should submit meekly and not get back to you?” His expression was slightly cold as he reminded, “I already said it in the classroom last time, I will call the police if the situation gets worse.”

The police car arrived soon. Various Alpha scents still remained in the air. A police officer asked, “Who called the police?”

Su Ling responded and told them his story. He, the driver and the Zhao brothers were all taken to the police station to record their statement. It didn’t take long for a police officer to walk in from outside and report about his investigation.

“According to a traffic monitoring system, the taxi stayed at an intersection in front of the school for half an hour. When student Su called for a taxi, the driver received a signal to start the car and let student Su take his car.”

Then, the police found contact records on the driver and Zhao Qi’s bracelet. It was obvious who is the perpetrator behind this.

Zhao Qi’s voice trembled as he confessed, “I didn’t want to harm him. I just wanted the driver to stimulate him to release his pheromones so that my brother could smell his pheromones.”

Su Ling: “There were not only the driver but also several other Alphas in the scene, just at the place where the taxi stopped.”

Officer frowned and scolded Zhao Qi, “As an Omega, don’t you know how dangerous is an Alpha’s pheromone to an Omega? Especially at your current age, your estrus  may be induced.”

“And you, as a driver, don’t you have any professional ethics?! At such an old age, can’t you tell the seriousness of the matter?”

The driver gave his excuse, “I have advised the second younger master against this action, but he does not listen. I am only a servant, so I have no other way. As for this car, I borrowed it from other people.”

Not long after, Zhao Qi’s lawyer came.

The police officer looked at Su Ling with pitiful eyes, “Are you going to press charge?”

Su Ling shook his head, “No need.”

Things have not progressed to the worst outcome. Zhao Qi’s behaviour also showed that his purpose is really just to make him take down his isolator, pressing charge will not have any result.

Zhao Qi humphed beside him. His expression became calmer when he heard his lawyer said that there would be no problem.

Su Ling looked at the police officer and said, “Just leave a criminal record under his name. He has money at home, so he likes to do whatever he wants, and always troubles me. If I get into an accident one day, it may be related to him.”

Zhao Qi glared at him, “Nonsense, there are people other than me who hated you!”

Su Ling: “Really? But no one bothered me except you.”

The police officer turned to ask Zhao Qi, “Why are you bothering him? If there is anything, make it clear now and settle it. Don’t make trouble later.”

Zhao Qi blurted out, “He’s so stinky, looking at him just annoyed me.”

The officer frowned, and Zhao Qing quickly patted Zhao Qi on the shoulder, and warned in a displeased tone, “Qi Qi.”

Su Ling makes a face, but his expression was calm as he opened up, “I was under a lot of pressure before, and he keeps making fun of me. I couldn’t think straight and attempted suicide some time ago. Before that, he kept looking for trouble with me, but I kept silent and didn’t resist. After my attempted suicide, I thought everything over and stopped letting him bully me.” A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, “For daring to rebel against him makes him think that I have slapped him and made him lose face.”

Then Su Ling turned to look at Zhao Qi, “Your usual punching bag is gone, so how can you tolerate it, right?”

After that, he shifted his focus to Zhao Qing, “If he is the executioner, then you are the one who handed him the knife. He grew up doing whatever he wants, according to his mood. He is a high school student now, so what he can do is limited. Just wait until he graduates, I bet your life will be more exciting.”

Zhao Qi’s character is completely spoiled. Although Su Ling does not know whether his words are useful, he still tries his best to remind Zhao Qing. If Zhao Qi can be corrected in time, it would mean lesser trouble for him(SL) as well.

Zhao Qing was slightly stunned, then his expression gradually becoming more serious. Zhao Qi wanted to say something, but Zhao Qing pinched him at the shoulder.

Su Ling withdrew his gaze and asked the police officer, “Can I leave now?”

The police officer nodded and replied, “Already recorded the statements, remember to call the police if there is danger.”

Su Ling said with a smile, “Thank you, uncle.”

He did not look at the Zhao brothers and left the police station. He called a taxi to the fragrance bar. On the way, he thought about it and sent a text message to Gu Liheng, telling him that he is not returning for dinner tonight. Gu Liheng has asked him about the dinner time before, it wouldn’t be nice if he said nothing to inform him that he’s not going back.

The fragrance bar has not opened yet, and the staffs were in the middle of preparing. Nalu sat at the deck, frowning at the holographic screen in front of him, and his finger sliding the pages. Su Ling walked over and took a glance at Nalu’s screen, found out that it was about recruiting material harvester.

Nalu noticed someone behind him and looked up before closing the screen from his bracelet, “Why are you late?”

Su Ling didn’t want him to worry, so he only gave a vague answer, “Something happened and delayed my time. So, are you hiring someone for the store?”

Nalu rubbed the bridge of his nose, “Just a material harvester, but it’s too hard to find.”

In Planet Belle, the spiritual plant specialist actually has two identities, a harvester and a fragrance maker. The former mainly collect raw materials, and the latter uses the raw materials to make finished products. Spiritual plant specialist can be both, but the harvester or fragrance maker will only focus on one specification. Only Omega can be a harvester, while a fragrance maker is not restricted by gender.

Su Ling recalled the definition in the textbook and asked, “Are there too little Omega available for work?”

Nalu got up and said, “Come with me, the spiritual plants are at the backyard.” As he walked to the backyard, he explained, “Not only there is lesser Omega available, the main problem is there are lesser temporary workers available to harvest raw material.”

“Omega is physically weaker and will choose a stable workplace, which is safer. Temporary workers will always need to change locations, and there is a lot of Alpha in the fragrance bar. Unmarried ones are easily affected, while the partner of married Omegas will not agree for them to take the job. The salary of a full-time material harvester is too high, even Grade E starts at least 20,000, and that hasn’t count staff remuneration yet. Our shop’s business is not good, so it’s not worthwhile to hire full-time material harvester. A temporary worker every week is enough, but it is not easy to find one.”

Su Ling thought about it and asked, “How much can I sell daily for the nectar and stem?”

Nalu: “The first three days we sold a total of 60,000, with an average price of 10,000 per piece. Can’t help it, the black market will suppress the prices.”

Su Ling was surprised, “So expensive?”

Nalu: “Not really. The 3 spiritual plants are at their most active period of life so they can produce a lot of nectar and stem every day. The top fragrance product in the market is Grade A, and you must use Grade A raw materials to make the products. Have you heard of Cold Moon Sachet before? Golden baby’s breath is one of its essential raw material.”

Su Ling nodded, the refreshing scent in Cold Moon Sachet was indeed Golden Baby’s breath.

Su Ling: “This is a lot of income, how about we hire a full-time material harvester?”

Nalu shook his head, “Spending 5,000 a month for a part-timer is good enough. Hiring a full-time staff is a waste of money, and you still have to go to university! Plus your marriage and dowry in the future, all those need to use money.”

Su Ling: “…”

Nalu: “The spiritual plants were left by your mother. This money must be used on you. The store doesn’t have to pay the insurance fee anymore, so we are slowly saving up money. The money can be used to renovate the shop in a year or two.”

Su Ling couldn’t help but ask, “Uncle Nalu, why are you willing to keep this shop running for so many years?”

Nalu rubbed his hair with a smile, “I like this job, and I have to repay your mother.”

The two of them came to the spiritual plant shed in the backyard. The shed area is not large, and there weren’t many spiritual plants in there, just occupying half of the area. Su Ling caught a whiff of a light scent as soon as he entered. He could easily recognize the aroma of roses, which is the most commonly used spiritual plant in the store. All of the spiritual plants were placed on the right side of the shed, the entire view was full of red flowers, with a few orange or yellow flowers mixed in the middle.

Nalu: “You can take a look around. The remaining raw materials are enough for two days. I will try to find a harvester again.”

After Nalu left, Su Ling walked into the shed. When he reached the rose bush, he squatted down and examined carefully. The flower clusters were too dense. He reached over wanting to touch the petals and leaves, but before he could touch them, Su Ling noticed that the flowers were shaking slightly. He stared at a red flower and thought for a moment, then moved his finger a little, stopping at a knuckle distance from the flower. At the next moment, the branches were slightly bent, and the flowers touched his fingers while trembling slightly as if it was rubbing against his finger.

Su Ling’s eyes became bright, and he touched the petals with his hands. It seems that his affinity with the spiritual plants is really high. He gently opened the petals, wanted to see the internal structure. The flowers bloomed brilliantly under his hands, and the stamens were unobstructed.

Su Ling smiled and said, “Thank you.”

He looked at it while compared with modern roses in his mind. The two were quite similar, except that the rose stamen in his hand has a touch of gold, and the surrounding area seems to be glowing. After that, his fingers lightly touched inwardly on the periphery of the flower, and the inner core of the flower gathered up to wrap the stamen. Su Ling found it very interesting. He took a step back and wanted to look at the branches, but doesn’t know since when several clusters of leaves were built behind his feet. When his feet started moving, the leaves swept back by itself. Turning back to the roses in front of him, Su Ling touched the leaves, and the leaves opened towards the sides. He could easily see the appearance of the branches, smooth green skin without thorns.

As stated in the Illustrated Book of Spiritual Plants, the spiritual plant’s level and attack power increase accordingly. Grade E spiritual plant has almost no attack power; hence Grade E rose has no thorns. After observing the roses, he continued to observe the rest of the flowers. Every flower liked him very much, so the process of his observation was very smooth. He compared the spiritual plants with what he read from the biology textbook, giving him deep impressions.

When he was about to leave, a cluster of leaves closest to him touched his feet, as if they were reluctant to see him leaving. Su Ling thought for a while and closed the door of the shed before removed the isolator. If he can’t communicate with Grade A spiritual plant, maybe Grade E can! They like him very much.

When his pheromone drifted towards the spiritual plants, Su Ling instantly sensed countless panic emotions, which agitated his head and made him dizzy. He pressed between his eyebrow, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the brilliant flowers that were initially blooming closed their petals tightly, and their branches were bent in the opposite direction.

Su Ling: “…” This response is too similar to Redthorn Ball and the other two!

The only difference is probably a greater sense of panic. Sighing, Su Ling reattached the isolator. It didn’t take long for the flowers to bloom at the same time. If he ignored the previous event, this scene of many flowers blooming together is breathtaking. Su Ling regretted it a bit and felt that it should be recorded. He hesitated for a while but didn’t do it again. That kind of panic was quite uncomfortable. He left the fragrance bar and had his dinner in a restaurant before returning to the villa.

Gu Liheng was sitting on the sofa watching economic news. When he heard footsteps, he looked up and gave Su Ling a once-over, asking, “Are you all right?”

Su Ling’s action of leaning against the door was very obvious. Gu Liheng was standing under the dryer at the end of the swimming pool, his gaze slightly changed as he quickly walked towards the door.

Su Ling’s fingers clenched tightly against the door. His fingertips turned slightly white because of the intensity, and the sound of his rapid breathing in his ears made him panic. Looking up, he saw Gu Liheng getting closer and closer, while the mellow fragrance becomes more intense. The scent was similar to the wine that has been stored for many years. It even gave Su Ling an illusion that he is soaking in a pool of red wine.

At the same time, dull irritation radiated from the back of his neck and swept across his head. As if his mind were covered by fog, his thoughts were not clear. Su Ling raised his finger slightly, wanting to remove the isolator to make himself more comfortable. That thought passed in a flash, and he pressed his finger down hard on the door panel again. Even he disliked his own smell, he couldn’t let his male god smell it again. His scent is bad at normal days, but with how uncomfortable he felt at the back of his neck right now, the smell must be strong.

Gu Liheng stopped about two steps from Su Ling. He pulled out an isolator and attached it to the back of his neck, then he adjusted the ventilation system to the highest level.

Su Ling felt his mouth very dry and licked his lower lip. He looked at Gu Liheng and took a breath, asking, “President Gu, are you okay?”

Gu Liheng glanced over his slightly moist lips, his eyebrows frowning slightly, “It’s you who are not okay.”

Su Ling blinked and admitted honestly, “En, my legs felt powerless, my heartbeat is fast, and my neck is uncomfortable.” What he didn’t say was his entire body felt very hot, and he really wanted Gu Liheng to touch it, but it was too shameful. He finished speaking in one breath and felt that his current appearance was too embarrassing. Looking at Gu Liheng, he asked, “I want to go back to my room, can you help me?”

Gu Liheng took a step forward and reached out for Su Ling. A delicate and small gourd-shaped dark blue sachet appeared on his hand, and Su Ling could smell a faint refreshing fragrance came from above. Gu Liheng gave Su Ling the sachet and held him with another hand, “Hold this and smell it.”

Earlier, Su Ling took a bath and put on thin refreshing clothing; white cotton singlet with black shorts. With such a thin fabric, Su Ling could clearly felt the heat from Gu Liheng’s palm. The moment Gu Liheng touched him, his(SL) hand subconsciously shifted outward, but he quickly stopped himself. Su Ling had never had such close contact with other people before, his heart was beating wildly, and he has this unknown impulse to reach out and hug the other person tightly.

Su Ling lightly scratched at the door to stay calm, then he took the sachet from Gu Liheng’s hand, and put it to the tip of his nose. The refreshing fragrance instantly rushed from his nose to his mind, and his clouded mind suddenly became clear like the fog was blown away by a gust of wind. Apart from that, the irritation at the back of his neck has dissipated. Su Ling moved the sachet away in surprise, but when he was about to examine the sachet, his body was suddenly carried up. Quickly raising his eyes, Su Ling saw a clear view of Gu Liheng’s side profile.

Gu Liheng looked down at him and said, “Pardon me.”

Gu Liheng walked downstairs with Su Ling in his arms, which his hands are at Su Ling’s shoulders and knees. The two of them were so close, skin touching skin, so Su Ling could easily sense how Gu Liheng’s body is slightly stiff. He couldn’t help laughing and said, “Your literature[1] skill is outstanding.”

Gu Liheng didn’t reply. He had never hugged a young Omega like this before. His hands at Su Ling’s knees have direct contact on the other person’s bare skin. The smooth and soft touch made him inexplicably flustered.

Su Ling squeezed the sachet again and then realized that Gu Liheng walked quite fast, as they have arrived at the first floor in the blink of an eye. He turned to look at Gu Liheng. When he(GLH) is just a few steps away from his(SL) room, Su Ling explained, “I was reading the physiology textbook regarding Alphas. It said that it is bad for the Alpha’s body if one doesn’t take off the isolator during exercise[2].”

“You have been doing strenuous exercise, and I’m worried about you, so I went up to take a look.”

Now Gu Liheng understood why Su Ling asked him ‘Are you okay’ before this. He walked into the room and placed Su Ling down to sit by the bed.

Su Ling sat down and looked up at him with an awkward expression, “Sorry, I gave you trouble.”

Thinking about everything that happened tonight, Su Ling frowned and was very annoyed with himself. He is just like an insensible child who keep having problems. The thing that happened today was far from his original plan. Initially, he plans to get acquainted with Gu Liheng for a few days and then starts making advances to him. He hopes to behave sensibly, beautifully, and s*xily in front of his male god… letting his male god discover all kinds of good qualities found in him. He hasn’t had the time to show it and ended up doing something stupid on the first day.

Gu Liheng looked down at him, his voice was soft and gentle, “You didn’t trouble me, have a good rest.”

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and saw him acting normal as usual, not looking irritated or disgusted. Feeling relieved, he raised his hand to return the sachet to Gu Liheng, “Thank you.”

Gu Liheng didn’t accept it. He said, “Take it, you can smell it when you get affected by pheromones again.”

Su Ling hesitated, he took back the sachet and asked, “Do you still have more?”

Gu Liheng stretched out his hand, and a similar sachet appeared on his palm, but the colour was dark gray.

Su Ling couldn’t help but sigh. Sure enough, rich people put everything in the space bag[3]. He smiled, “It’s great that you have one for yourself.” Su Ling did not reject Gu Liheng’s kindness, thinking about the function of the sachet, he asked curiously, “Is it from a spiritual plant?”

Gu Liheng nodded.

Su Ling smelled the sachet again, his affected body had almost returned to normal. He deeply felt how powerful are spiritual plant products, and even more determined to study spiritual plant major. An Omega’s body is too easily affected, plus various high-level spiritual plant products may not be available even if one has the money, so if he can do it himself, he won’t have to worry anymore. Maybe he can even develop a better spiritual plant product.

Gu Liheng: “You have to go to school tomorrow, so have a good rest.”

Su Ling nodded, “Okay.”

Gu Liheng glanced at his obedient response and turned to leave the room, closing the door.

Su Ling lay down on his bed, and rolled a few times around to ease himself into a regular sleeping position, then gradually fell asleep smelling the sachet.

In the morning, Su Ling and Gu Liheng had breakfast together and went to see the spiritual plants. The spiritual plants were delighted to see him, shaking their leaves and flowers and nudging his fingers.

Darry released his pheromones to communicate with them, laughing, “They are very happy.”

Su Ling’s fingers were tickled, and his eyes narrowed when he smiled, “I’m really curious about how it feels when communicating with them.”

Successfully obtaining the raw materials, Darry handed Su Ling the nectar and stem. He looked at Su Ling with pity and said, “I know an expert in pheromone matter, do you want me to introduce you?”

Su Ling looked at the spiritual plants. Mother Qin told him that the key lies in them, so he did not have any expectation towards seeing some experts. But during these few days, he came to see the spiritual plants every day, and also carefully observed them several times, he even tried eating the raw materials directly, but didn’t find anything useful. He thought about it and agreed, “Have to trouble you then.”

Darry laughed, “You’re welcome. I’ll notify you after I contacted him and make an appointment.”

Su Ling nodded, and Darry left with the Redthorn ball’s liquid.

…

Su Ling got off the car, thanked the driver, and turned to enter the campus. Before he could take two steps away, someone called him.

“Su Ling, stop right there!”

Su Ling turned around and saw Su Ao running towards him and asked, “Whose car you took to come to school?”

Su Ling raised an eyebrow, “What does it matter to you?”

Su Ao sneered, “I saw that the driver is at least 40 years old?” He despised, “You are not willing to apply for a system allocation, but you are willing to be supported by an old man, how disgusting!”

Su Ling looked at him speechlessly, this children imagination is really rich.

“Can you speak with your brain?” He rolled his eyes. “Also, I have severed my relationship with the Su family. We don’t have any relations to each other, so don’t talk to me if you have nothing to do.”

Su Ao: “Then, why not change your surname?!”

Su Ling is really impatient with such unreasonable children. He replied, “You don’t want to have the same surname as me? Then you can change your surname.”

After he finished speaking, he strode into the school, and Su Ao followed behind him angrily, “Why should I change mine, that’s my father’s last name.”

Su Ling pretended he didn’t hear anything and ignored him.

Su Ao stamped his feet angrily, “Don’t ever go back to the Su Family if you can!” He heard his mother say that Su Ling is fearless now because he has some money, but that little amount of money will be fully spent in two years.

“Su Ao, Su Ling really broke off with the Su family?” Someone tapped him on the shoulder.

He turned around, “Brother Qi, it is true.”

Zhao Qi frowned, he is even more puzzled now. Yesterday, his brother promised to teach Su Ling a lesson, saying he will help him embarrass Su Ling. In the end, not only the matter was not done well, and his brother got his hand injured, he also asked him not to trouble Su Ling again. Furthermore, his father mentioned about a business with the Su Family at night during dinner. He thought his brother was afraid of the Su Family, but Su Ling already cut off his relationship with them. Why did he prohibit him from causing troubles for Su Ling? Could it be? Zhao Qi thought of Su Ling’s pretty face, his face became ugly. Could it be his brother fell for Smelly Su?

After school in the evening, Su Ling did not contact the Gu Family’s driver, but stood by the roadside, because he is going to his store. There will be a batch of Grade E spiritual plants arriving in the store today. He has been reading biological books recently and wants to see the real plant. He waited two minutes before he could get a taxi. After telling the driver the address of the fragrance bar, Su Ling turned his head to look out the window. After a while, he frowned because the smell of an Alpha is getting stronger in the car. The back of his neck started to feel tight, and his body turned slightly hot; very uncomfortable.

The driver panicked and said, “Sorry, I… I’m not feeling well.” He glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, “Are you all right?”

Su Ling replied, “Fortunately.” It was much better than his reaction towards Gu Liheng last night. He then added, “You can put me down at the next turn.”

The driver accelerated and said, “Okay, I will find a place to put you down. Please bear it. You can take off your isolator if you felt uncomfortable.”

Su Ling glanced at the taxi driver. He took the sachet out from his backpack and smelled it, then tapped his bracelet and triggered an alert to the police.

The driver parked the car by a small road, where 3 Alphas are standing beside the road, and a burgundy sports car parked not far away. The driver opened the door at Su Ling’s side and said, “Quickly get off the car.”

Su Ling didn’t get out of the car, but various Alpha scent still rushes to him through the door seam. Placing the sachet at the tip of his nose, Su Ling could sense the crisp fragrance eliminating all kinds of scent; refreshing and cool.

In the sports car, Zhao Qing lazily curled a lock of loose hair by his forehead and disdained, “My dear younger brother, don’t you know how much an Alpha hated the smell of their same kind? You brought me here to give me a punishment?”

Zhao Qi wore a mask and pulled him out of the car, “I’m trying to make you sober.”

Zhao Qing shrugged his shoulders and followed him to the taxi.

When Su Ling saw Zhao Qi, he frowned with impatience. Just like what it says in the novel, Zhao Qi like a dog skin plaster (狗皮膏药). In the novel, all of Zhao Qi’s focus was used to check out what the protagonist gong likes and to break down the feelings between two protagonists. He encountered failure again and again, then will come out with new ways again and again until he died. This kind of person is really annoying.

Zhao Qi waved his hand and dismissed the Alphas. After that, he took off his mask and said to Zhao Qing, “Take a whiff, his pheromone is particularly smelly, don’t be fooled by his appearance…” Then he stopped talking because there wasn’t any unpleasant smell in the air. He glared towards the driver, “So useless, you still haven’t made him remove his isolator yet?”

The smile on Zhao Qing’s face instantly disappeared, “Didn’t I said not to mess with him?!”

Zhao Qi was taken aback by his serious expression and stiffened his neck, “I just want to let you smell his pheromone so that you are not fooled by his appearance.”

Su Ling got off the car and stared at them.

Zhao Qi’s eyes fell on his hand, and his voice suddenly increased, “How come you have that Cold Moon Sachet?” He begged his mother for that sachet for a long time before she agreed to buy it, but in the end, they failed to win the bid.

Su Ling looked down at the sachet and thought to himself, as expected, this item is not any cheap bargain stuff.

[1] – GLH said 冒犯了 which somehow means ‘Excuse me for the impoliteness? :v It’s like what the ancient chinese people will say.

[2] – Felt like this is a plot hole because SL wore his isolator while running. So the author probably set this rule specifically for Alpha only, since they ‘have a lot of energy’

[3] – 空间背包, directly translated as space backpack :v Banana is not very experienced with future world terms and stuff. Like usually people say space ring, which they will have a physical ring as the key ma. But backpack? What is the key for GLH to open the space storage? Banana is clueless _(;3/ Could it be cultivaltion style, using spiritual power? 😛

Su Ling’s eyes narrowed with a smile, and two dimples appeared on his cheeks. His slender eyes curled up, looking pure and gorgeous.

Gu Liheng paused for two seconds and moved away from his clear eyes. Then he said, “You did it on purpose.” His voice was calm, and he was using an affirmative tone.

Su Ling blinked and slightly restrained his smile. He stared at Gu Liheng, trying to find out his real thoughts from his expressionless face, “You are not angry ba?” Lifting his head from his bag, Su Ling sat upright and explained, “I just want to tease you, because you… are always looking very solemn.”

Su Ling’s gaze was warm and sincere, with a hint of worry in it. He was not sure where Gu Liheng’s bottom line is as he(GLH) has always maintained a serious expression. Su Ling wants to make it clear so that he won’t shoot himself in the foot when the time comes.

Looking at Su Ling’s posture as if saying he will accept any lessons, Gu Liheng thought to himself, still a child. He said, “I am not angry, I am used to showing this expression.”

Su Ling smiled, “It’s great if you are not angry,” he said sincerely, “You have a good personality.” Stable and reliable and very accommodating.

Gu Liheng saw Su Ling’s serious expression and refrained from telling him that many people were afraid to even talk to him.

Back at the villa, Gu Liheng ordered the butler robot Domi to bring Su Ling to the guest room, and said to Su Ling, “If you have something to ask, you can contact me. Dinner time is at 6.30pm.” He paused. “What time do you usually have dinner? You can set another time if you want.”

Su Ling immediately said, “6.30pm is good enough.”

Gu Liheng nodded, and Su Ling followed Domi to the guest room.

The room is just one room away from the room where the spiritual plants were placed. The area is much larger than the fragrance bar’s lounge, and the lighting is nice as well. Su Ling circled the room once and was very satisfied. He opened the closet and saw that it was empty. There was a sachet in the corner, exuding a light fragrance, and it smelled very comfortable. Su Ling took his clothes out of the backpack, hung them one by one in the wardrobe, and put the toiletries in the bathroom. Standing in front of the sink, he removed the isolator, and the feeling of restrained heat at the back of his neck eased up a lot. An awful smell gradually appeared in the air. Su Ling wrinkled his nose and turned on the ventilation system.

After that, Su Ling leaned his head closer to the mirror and observed the back of his neck. Other than looking slightly red, the skin on the gland seemed normal to him. He pressed on the spot and instantly felt numb. He groaned, and his eyes were slightly opened. This feeling is too strange. His body has changed a lot since then, it makes him curious and afraid. He doesn’t dare to explore further and doesn’t dare to touch much of that area every time he takes a bath. This is just an exposed neck, and he felt it when he touches it. Couldn’t imagine what would happen if someone touched it instead. Su Ling recalled the time when he started to read this kind of novel, he was puzzled about how the ABO world setting works, and specifically went to search about it. He remembers seeing someone saying that the ABO setting is the paradise for ‘yellow’ novels.

Su Ling felt kind of complicated. At first, he thought he could ignore how an Omega’s body is different from his original body, but this body’s reaction reminded him that running from reality is useless. He sat down on the bedroom sofa, opened his bracelet interface, and carefully read up on the relevant chapters regarding the physiology of an Omega. After reading it, he glanced down with a shocked expression on his face, then looked away. He coughed awkwardly. Although he only briefly glanced down, he had the illusion that he was perverting himself. He glanced at the time. At 6.25pm, he closed his bracelet interface and went to the dining room.

When he reached, Gu Liheng hadn’t arrived yet, and his thoughts couldn’t help returning to the content he just read. Words like estrus and knot flashed in his mind.

“Are you feeling uncomfortable? Your face is very red.” Gu Liheng asked when he walked into the dining room and saw Su Ling’s red face.

Su Ling came back to his sense and felt a little ashamed. He hurriedly answered, “No, it’s nothing” he patted his face, ” just feeling a little bit hot.”

Gu Liheng glanced at Su Ling’s short-sleeved T-shirt and turned the air-conditioning down by 2 degrees.

Gu Liheng’s eating etiquette is perfect, and the whole dining process was silent.

Su Ling would glance at him from time to time, and couldn’t help sighing in his heart that Gu Liheng is really handsome; handsome and good-tempered. Drinking his juice, Su Ling watched Gu Liheng maintained an unhurried speed while eating, and found out that Gu Liheng ate more than he did.

Gu Liheng noticed his stare, and his movements slightly paused, “You don’t have to be polite, you eat too little.”

Su Ling: “I’m full.”

Gu Liheng didn’t say anything and continued to eat. After eating, the two left the dining room, and the housekeeping robot cleaned up the table.

Su Ling saw Gu Liheng walking towards the second floor, and asked, “Are you going back to your room?”

Gu Liheng looked at him, “You have something to ask me?”

Su Ling replied, “It’s not good to sit down right after a meal. It’s best to take a walk.” Then he suggested, “Let’s go for a walk together.”

Gu Liheng looked out of the door, the sky is not entirely dark, as if it was covered with a layer of gray-blue gauze. Not bright, but one could still see clearly. He turned to Su Ling and asked, “Are you afraid of the dark? There are night lights in the yard, and you can ask Butler Domi to turn it on now.” The night lights were scheduled to turn on at 7.30pm, but it is only 7.00pm right now.

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng helplessly. This person’s head doesn’t have even a shred of romance? Isn’t he a bit too straight?! His invitation was obvious to see. Or does Gu Liheng thinks of him as a child and didn’t think in another direction?

Su Ling looked at him, “Are you going with me?”

Gu Liheng saw Su Ling’s expectant eyes and got slightly soft-hearted, but he was not interested in a soft exercise like walking, so he replied, “Not going.” Then, he thought of what Su Ling said about not sitting after a meal, he added, “There is a fitness room on the second floor.”

Su Ling immediately asked, “Can I go?”

Gu Liheng nodded, “Yes, but pay attention to safety.”

Su Ling’s eyes quickly swept over him, his male god is tall and sturdy, with a perfect inverted triangle figure, but it was a pity that he was covered by his shirt and trousers. Thinking about how his male god looked during exercise, his heart beats faster, “En, I will pay attention.”

Su Ling followed Gu Liheng to the fitness room located at the far right side of the second floor. Upon entering, he momentarily had a feeling that he has just entered a fitness club. The fitness room has various equipment on the left, a swimming pool on the right, and a squash room on the front. The equipment area was separated from the swimming pool by a glass wall.

Gu Liheng: “I need to deal with a document first, feel free to use the room.”

Su Ling acknowledged with an ‘En’. After Gu Liheng left, Su Ling looked around at the fitness room and got a general understanding of how each equipment works. He went to a treadmill and adjusted it to jogging mode. Slowly running on the treadmill, he would occasionally glance at the door. About 15 mins later, when Su Ling turned his head to the door again, he saw Gu Liheng coming into the room.

Gu Liheng was wearing a black tank top, and sports shorts, giving Su Ling an unobstructed view of the muscles of his arms and calves. The muscles under his honey-coloured skin looked very strong. Gu Liheng has powerful facial features, tall figure and long legs, and the scene when he walked into the room looked like he is shooting the cover of a magazine; so cool and so handsome.

Su Ling’s footsteps paused for a moment, causing his body to fall forward. Coming back to his sense, he quickly propped himself on the console and pressed the stop button. He gasped, and the lights in front of him were blocked out all of a sudden. Looking up, Su Ling saw Gu Liheng frowning at him, “You were distracted, that’s very dangerous.”

Su Ling’s face turned red, and he felt like a silly kid. He hasn’t felt like this for a long time.

“I will pay attention.” He was a little embarrassed because he said the same thing not long ago, but ended up slapping his face with it.

Gu Liheng raised his hand, wanted to help him down, but stopped when he thought of the other party’s gender, “Can you still come down from the treadmill? Did you hurt your foot?”

Su Ling shook his head and leapt down from the treadmill. Then he jumped a few times on the ground and laughed, “I’m fine.”

Gu Liheng’s eyebrows loosened as he advised, “Use the smart mode in the future. You can link the equipment to Butler Domi, and it will help to handle any unexpected situations.”

Su Ling nodded, “Okay.” He looked at Gu Liheng and added, “You can go to exercise, I’ll link it myself.”

Hence, Gu Liheng told Su Ling how to set the link, before walking to the side to warm up. After that, he went to the squash court to play.

Su Ling opened the treadmill control panel and linked it to Butler Domi.

Butler Domi couldn’t help but sigh, “After 20 years, Master finally needs me again during exercise.”

Su Ling coughed, “Butler Domi, it’s me who needed you.”

“Oh, dear beautiful Omega guest, I am delighted to serve you.”

Su Ling whispered, “Who designed your system character? It is completely different from your master’s style.”

Butler Domi: “Of course it is my owner himself.”

Su Ling raised his eyebrow and turned his head to look at Gu Liheng. He couldn’t think how Gu Liheng would set his butler’s personality like that. He initially just subconsciously looked over, but this time he did not want to look away. Gu Liheng looked very fierce when he was playing squash. His expression was still the same as usual, but his momentum was awe-inspiring, his eyes were focused and fierce. He is very fast as well, Su Ling can hardly see the trajectory of the ball, but Gu Liheng still can receive the ball accurately every time, and then return the hit hard.

“Dear beautiful Omega guest, the connection is successful, you can now run with confidence. There will not be any problems, even if you fall asleep on the treadmill.”

Su Ling looked away when he heard Domi, “Thank you, Butler Domi.”

“You are welcomed.”

Su Ling adjusted the treadmill to normal running speed and stopped after running for half an hour. During this period, Gu Liheng has been playing squash non-stop. His hair is wet from the sweat, and a layer of sweat is covered his honey-coloured skin, which is very sexy. Su Ling was amazed. If he played squash like Gu Liheng, he absolutely wouldn’t be able to hold on for 10 minutes. Just 30 minutes of regular running has made him feel tired.

Gu Liheng’s physical strength is incredible!

Sighing in his heart, Su Ling lightly gasped and wiped away the sweat on his forehead with his hand. Hesitated, he decided not to disturb Gu Liheng and went back downstairs to take a shower.

After Su Ling left, Gu Liheng grabbed the ball and stopped playing. He frowned as he took off the isolator on the back of his neck. In an instant, a rich and mellow fragrance came wafting into the air. He moved his hands and feet to relax his muscles, then walked out of the squash court. He jumped into the swimming pool, took a few rounds of casual swimming, and lay on the surface of the water slowly.

After taking a shower, Su Ling endured the shame and continued to read up on the physiology notes. This time, he read about Alpha.

“Alpha is full of energy and constantly needs to vent out. Sxx and exercise are the best ways. During both processes, the isolator should be removed, because having the isolator on will damage the glands.”

“When exercising, make sure that no Omega other than the partner is present; otherwise, the pheromone emitted may induce an Omega into estrus.”

Su Ling swiftly stood up. The amount of Gu Liheng’s exercise just now is not any regular exercise! Did he stay inside the squash court because of him? Su Ling couldn’t help worrying, would something goes wrong from him restraining himself? Sticking the isolator on, Su Ling went to the second floor. As soon as the door of the fitness room was opened, a rich and mellow fragrance rushed over, causing Su Ling’s legs to soften instantly. Su Ling immediately supported himself against the door.

The hxll with this body?!

The next day, Su Ling went to school in a good mood. He was thrilled to think that he could live together in the male god’s villa from tonight. His good mood continued until he entered the classroom and walked to his seat. Lin Meng hadn’t come yet, he leaned over to shift Lin Meng’s chair under the table and was about to get up when he wrinkled his nose.

He can smell a very faint pungent smell from his chair. His sense of smell is very sensitive now, and he can easily distinguish the various scents he has smelled before. This faint pungent smell was not new to him because he used this material when pasting mural wallpaper in the store 2 days ago. It is a kind of strong glue that can’t be pulled away directly and can only be washed away with water. Although this world is full of holographic screens, paper products are still being used in many places. For example, the fragrance bar, each day has a different theme, and they will change the mural[1] to set off the atmosphere, using paper will make it more stylish.

Su Ling’s eyes narrowed, and he looked at the chair surface. There were 4 slightly reflective points in the middle of the chair surface as if someone accidentally dropped 4 drops of water on the chair. One can easily miss it if they are not paying attention. Obviously, someone intentionally put glue on his chair, and if he accidentally sat on it, the chair will definitely stick to his pants. Even if the glue can be washed away with water, his b u t t will still be thoroughly wet. He can imagine how embarrassing he will be just by thinking about it. Moreover, the other party was cautious, as he/she only placed 4 drops of glue, so it was not easy to detect. He knew who did it without thinking.

“Ling Ling,” Lin Meng’s hand rested on his shoulder, “What are you doing?”

Su Ling stood up and walked aside to give way to Lin Meng, “You sit first, I have something to do.”

Lin Meng looked at him weirdly, “What’s wrong?”

Su Ling smiled, “You will know later.”

The classroom became full in a short time, and Su Ling looked conspicuous standing alone there.

Zhao Qi looked at him, “What are you doing standing here? Just like a fool.”

Su Ling ignored him. When the teacher walked into the classroom, he raised his hand to get the teacher’s attention. But he doesn’t need to do that actually, because the teacher had already noticed him.

“Su Ling, why are you standing there?”

Su Ling: “Teacher, someone put glue on my chair. I request to check the CCTV.”

Everyone in the classroom immediately started talking. Zhao Qi and his friend were shocked and soon became nervous.

The teacher frowned and asked, “Are you sure?”

Su Ling nodded, “Yes, this is a kind of strong glue, which is more than just pranks. I want to know who did it. If I get into an accident in the future, the police will have targets to investigate.”

His words shocked everyone in a classroom. For them, being punished by calling their parents is already very serious, so it’s a big deal if the police are involved. The teacher looked at him in surprise, and couldn’t help thinking if Su Ling’s attempted suicide have unknown factors in it. His expression turned serious as he said, “Okay, I will contact the school security team to begin an investigation immediately.”

“Don’t!” A classmate suddenly shouted with a crying voice, “Teacher, don’t investigate, I did it, it was just a joke.”

Su Ling looked over, it was the boy who went to school together with Zhao Qi yesterday morning.

The teacher said with a sullen face, “Nonsense, how can this thing be a joke! If it sticks to the skin and one flailed in a panic, it is easy to tear the skin and get injured.”

The classmate’s face was pale as he apologized, “I’m sorry, I won’t do that again in the future.”

Zhao Qi clenched his teeth tightly, and his fingers were closed together. Then he stood up suddenly and confessed, “Teacher, I make him do that, it has nothing to do with him.” Then he looked at Su Ling and said, “Su Ling made our class a laughingstock because of his cowardly behaviour, so I just want to teach him a lesson.”

Su Ling raised his eyelids and looked at him, “Teach me a lesson? Who do you think you are? I committed suicide before this because I wasn’t thinking straight, but don’t forget, it also has a lot to do with you.”

Zhao Qi: “You are just a coward. I merely tore a card and stated a few facts. Anyone will feel sick if they are being liked by a stinky Omega like you!”

“Zhao Qi, how can you say that, it’s too much!” Lin Meng’s cheeks bulged as he glared at Zhao Qi.

Su Ling coldly looked at Zhao Qi who acted like he is the truth. With just a glance, Su Ling could tell that Zhao Qi was spoiled by his family, and he didn’t know how hurtful the words were.

“Silence, all of you,” the teacher’s expression looked ugly, “Zhao Qi, Qian Wu, follow me to the office, while the rest of the students do self-study.” Then the teacher turned to Su Ling, “You go to the logistics department to change your chair.”

The teacher left with Zhao Qi and Qian Wu.

Lin Meng carefully looked at Su Ling’s face and comforted, “Ling Ling, what Zhao Qi said were all nonsense. You are an excellent person, and the person you like will definitely be happy.”

Su Ling smiled at him. He placed one hand on Lin Meng’s shoulders and grabbed the chair over him with another hand then lifted it up, “I don’t care about what he said.”

Lin Meng: “I will accompany you to change the chair.”

“No need, this kind of glue can be washed away with water.”

Lin Meng curiously stared at the chair surface, “Why can’t I see the glue?”

Su Ling pointed at four points, and Lin Meng looked at him in surprise, “You have good eyes, how did you find out?”

Su Ling answered, “Smell,” and he shook his chair, “talk to you again when I come back.”

When it’s time for lunch, Zhao Qi glared at Su Ling fiercely, before getting up and quickly walked out of the classroom.

…

“Brother, I don’t care, you must help me!” Zhao Qi said angrily.

“Aren’t you the top bully in your school? You still need my help?” The young man has a lazy demeanour, as he questioned back with a mocking tone.

Zhao Qi: “That Smelly Su seemed to have turned into a different person. I went against him several times already. Today, I was scolded by the teacher for 2 periods straight, then was punished to write a 10,000 words self-reflection by hand. I can’t swallow this down if I don’t teach him a lesson.”

“Smelly Su? The one you said won’t even squeak when being hit?”

Zhao Qi: “He can sure speak out for himself now.” Zhao Qi angrily recounted what Su Ling said outside the canteen and in the classroom.

“Quite interesting.”

Zhao Qi raised his voice, “Brother!”

“Alright alright, say it ba. How do you want me to help?”

Zhao Qi: “The school is being monitored everywhere. He is adept in reporting everything to the teacher now, and it’s not convenient for me to do anything. After school today, you can follow him and do whatever you want. Just make him into a sorry state, keep the photos and videos, I want to upload it to the school forum. Also, his pheromones are particularly unpleasant, so it’s easy enough to do this.”

“Alright, I know.”

Zhao Qi finally showed some smile on his face, “Thank you, brother.”

…

“Ling Ling, let’s play together tonight!” Lin Meng suggested after school.

Su Ling shook his head, “Maybe next time? I have something to do today.”

Su Ling took a taxi to the fragrance bar, picked up the backpack he already packed, and walked out of the fragrance bar. Standing by the roadside, Su Ling estimated the time needed to reach the villa before contacting the Gu family’s driver. He asked the driver to wait for him at the villa area’s gate around 20 minutes later. Just when he is about to hail a taxi, a car suddenly stopped in front of him. The window lowered, revealing a blond man with slightly long hair tied behind. The man is very handsome, and he looked somewhat familiar.

The man whistled, “Turned out you are a little beauty.”

Su Ling glanced at him and said, “Still worse than you.”

Then he walked away with his backpack, but his arm was caught. Su Ling turned his head and frowned slightly. A strong grassy scent rushed into his nose; it was very strong. He has the illusion of being coated by this smell, from his hair to his toes — the smell of rosemary.

Slightly dazed, Su Ling soon realized what’s wrong. He raised his eyelids and looked at the handsome man in front of him, “You didn’t wear an isolator?”

The man smiled brightly as he asked, “Ah, you smelled it? Do you like it?”

Su Ling wrinkled his nose, “Unpleasant.” Glancing around, Su Ling turned back at him and said, “I’m warning you, let go of me in the count of 3. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what happens next.”

The man smiled deeper, and the scent from his body became more potent, “What happens next?”

Su Ling noticed a slight heat from the back of his neck, but couldn’t be released because of the isolator. The feeling of restrained heat made him very uncomfortable. Using all his strength, Su Ling waved his hands around and shouted, “Help! Perverts!”

The street that the fragrance bar located is a place for night activities, so there are not many people nearby, but it is not like there are none. It’s around 5pm at the moment, so some stores have already begun to prepare for the opening of their store. Besides, there were also people passing by. An Omega’s voice was well recognizable, hence as soon as his shouts were heard, people came running towards him from all directions.

The blond man was stunned. He has yet to react when someone gripped his wrist tightly. The man grunted, and his fingers became powerless, releasing Su Ling.

Su Ling withdrew his hand, he was surprised and astonished when he saw who helped him.

Gu Liheng was expressionless. After the man let go of Su Ling’s hand, he neatly folded the man’s hand to his back. The man gasped and raised his fist. He turned and waved his fist towards Gu Liheng’s face. Shifting away slightly, Gu Liheng gripped the man’s fist in his hand.

“President Gu?” The man was shocked.

Gu Liheng frowned. He released the man’s hand and handed an isolator to him, “Put it on.”

The man rubbed his wrist and pasted the isolator to his neck.

Several passersby ran over, and one of them looked at Su Ling, “Do you need help to call the police?”

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and shook his head. Smiling at the passerby, he said, “No need, thank you. It was a misunderstanding.”

The passersby dispersed, and Gu Liheng looked at Su Ling, “Are you all right?”

Su Ling shook his head and glanced at the two of them, “Do you know him?”

Gu Liheng: “I met him before, he is Zhao Qing.” After that, he looked at Zhao Qing and said in a deep voice, “Stay far away from him in the future.”

Immediately, Su Ling understood; Zhao Qi’s brother. He curled lips and said, “Zhao Qi asked you to help? You are an adult, is it alright to entangle yourself with high school students matter?”

Zhao Qing chuckled, “I was just bored. I heard Qi Qi talk about your disputes, and I think you are very interesting.”

Su Ling stared at him, “Interesting? You released your pheromone earlier on purpose, just to make me look bad. Childish, just like your brother.”

Zhao Qing was mentioned a lot in the early stage of the novel. He is a playboy who was very fond of his brother and is Zhao Qi’s good helper in making trouble. However, later on, he fell for Lin Meng and got disappointed with Zhao Qi. Being emotionally hurt by Lin Meng’s rejection, he left Planet Belle and didn’t return until Zhao Qi died in a car accident. Thinking of this, Su Ling’s lips moved, but he didn’t say anything. He(SL) was just a stranger, and someone who had bad blood with Zhao Qi, Zhao Qing would not listen to him.

Zhao Qing shrugged and looked at Gu Liheng, “President Gu knew him?”

Gu Liheng nodded and replied, “He is under my wing, don’t trouble him anymore.”

Zhao Qing was a little surprised. Raising his hand and waved, Zhao Qing felt his wrist throbbed. His breath hitched, and he lowered his hand. The corner of his mouth slightly curled up as he replied, “I know, bye.”

After Zhao Qing left, Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and asked, “Why are you here?”

Gu Liheng: “Just passing by,” he glanced at Su Ling’s bulging backpack, “Going to the villa?”

Su Ling nodded and looked at him expectantly, “Can I hitch a ride?”

Gu Liheng nodded. Su Ling smiled and sat beside him at the back of the car. He placed the bag on his legs and hugged it. Then his hand subconsciously reached out to stroke the back of his neck. The restrained feeling has not dissipated and felt uncomfortable.

Gu Liheng: “You can remove the isolator.”

Su Ling turned his head to look at him, “Does Omega usually be like this when facing Alpha’s pheromone?”

Gu Liheng looked at his confused face and explained with a serious attitude, “The reaction varies, your reaction right now is considered very light.”

“If the compatibility is high, you…”

Gu Liheng’s eyes fell on Su Ling still immature face, and paused: “You can read up on physiological knowledge.”

Stunned, Su Ling couldn’t help laughing out, “En, I’ll do that.” He blinked and looked at Gu Liheng’s slender fingers on his legs. The fingers moved, and that caused Su Ling’s heart to become a little itchy. He forced himself to look away and asked Gu Liheng curiously, “What is the smell of your pheromone?”

Gu Liheng glanced at him, “You don’t need to know.” Then, he paused and said, “Don’t randomly ask an Alpha this question.”

Su Ling raised an eyebrow, “Why?”

Gu Liheng patiently explained, “Because it is suggestive, vaguely indicating that you want to smell the person’s pheromone.”

Su Ling’s eyes moved to Gu Liheng’s back, and he slowly moved his head closer. When his chin is almost touching Gu Liheng’s shoulder, he whispered, “I want to smell your pheromone.”

Gu Liheng’s eyes moved slightly, his eyes drooped, “No.”

Su Ling’s eyes curled up, and he pulled back, “So if I asked the question like this, it means I am clearly asking to smell other person’s pheromone, right?”

Gu Liheng turned to look at him, “You were just asking questions?”

Su Ling’s eyes were clear and looked innocent, “Yeah, otherwise?” He smiled, “You answered me just now, does that means you thought I was asking for it?”

Gu Liheng’s expression stiffened a bit, and his thin lips twitched slightly as he replied, “En.”

Su Ling smiled into his bag, President Gu was unexpectedly honest. So honest that it doesn’t match President Gu’s appearance, but it made his(SL) heart beat faster.
