“…… Ning An?” Xu Yu Sheng’s vision had already become quite fuzzy. Leaning in extremely close, he could finally make out Ning An’s face, but then immediately pushed him away. “Hurry up and leave. In a moment, even you will……”

“I what?” Ning An failed to understand. He noticed that something was wrong with Xu Yu Sheng, so he put the  box down and moved closer to take a look.

“Don’t come over! You……” Xu Yu Sheng didn’t even have the strength to retreat. He leaned his head against the wall and panted. “Th-they should be coming over soon…… Leave now.”

“Estrus?” Ning An was quite surprised, but now was obviously not the time to ask questions. He crouched down in front of Xu Yu Sheng and said, “Where’s your inhibitor? Do you have an inhibitor?”

“Here……” Xu Yu Sheng took out a needle with the medicine dose inside from his bag. His hands were shaking so much that he almost dropped it onto the floor. Ning An quickly came forward to take it away from him.

Xu Yu Sheng’s arms weren’t thick. It was hard to imagine that they could produce such powerful punches. Ning An quickly found his vein and injected all the liquid inside. Fortunately, he made it in time.

Xu Yu Sheng leaned against the wall and waited for the inhibitor to take effect. Beside him, Ning An shook the bottle of moisturising spray to see how much he had just used. It felt too wasteful.

“How come you didn’t seem to be affected at all?” From the way Ning An skilfully injected the inhibitor into him, Xu Yu Sheng basically already determined that Ning An was the same as him, that they were both Omegas who had hidden their identities. “My pheromones……”

“Why would I be affected? An Omega’s pheromones won’t affect other Omegas.” Ning An took out a pack of chocolate biscuits from the box and passed it over to him. “Besides, I am a genuine Beta. If you don’t believe me, then I can take my clothes off right now for you to look. Wait no, that just makes me look like a hooligan.”

Xu Yu Sheng chuckled. He really was too flustered just now.

“It’s true that a lot of people would think that I’m an Omega, but how can it be that easy to deceive the school doctor……” Ning An suddenly paused and shut his mouth. Wasn’t there someone who had deceived the physical examination doctor right in front of him? “How did you get into this school?”

“With an illicit drug. It can make my physical indicators look the same as a Beta’s. I also relied on my family and some connections.” Xu Yu Sheng felt the heat in his body gradually subside. He supported his hand against the wall and stood up, looking at Ning An with a complicated expression. After all, only yesterday, the two of them were still opponents, but today, his opponent had actually saved him. Xu Yu Sheng said with some uncertainty:

“The matter about me being an Omega, can you help me keep it a secret?” If this was exposed, then all his efforts so far would go to waste. “You can raise any conditions.”

“How can you be so reckless ah? Are you preparing to be a hero who sacrifices himself for a righteous cause?” Ning An ate a biscuit in puzzlement. He heart ached when he thought of the help Xu Yu Sheng had received from his family. If not for his own family’s ‘help’, then Ning An would probably have already earned several buckets worth of gold by now. “As for keeping a secret, you can keep it yourself. Oh, also, don’t come and find trouble with Class 6 again. Otherwise, I won’t show any mercy.”

“There’s no need.” Xu Yu Sheng sent Ning An a punch, putting up a ferocious appearance but didn’t have any ill meaning.

“Seeing you like this, you should be okay now? Then I better get going.” The Alpha ‘brotherhood’ who were roaming around outside had left. Ning An picked up his parcel box and also intended to leave. “Oh right, is the classroom now filled with the scent your pheromones? Before you leave, remember to open the windows to ventilate the room.”

He can’t smell it? Although a Beta’s perception of pheromones aren’t that sharp, but to not be able to smell even this, how dull was his perception? While Xu Yu Sheng was puzzling over this, Ning An had already left. Snapping out of his daze, he looked thoughtfully at the open door.

‘As for keeping a secret, you can keep it yourself’? He really was an interesting person. Xu Yu Sheng opened his terminal and wanted to send Ning An a message, but only then realised that he didn’t have Ning An added as a friend. Wang Yi and Ning An were in the same dorm, so Wang Yi should have his contact details. Forget it.

Xu Yu Sheng switched off his terminal. Before leaving, he didn’t forget Ning An’s reminder to open the windows. As for expressing thanks, it’s better if he did this in person.

Although Ning An’s heart hurt for that half a bottle of moisturising mist spray that Ning Meng had sent him, feeling that it was simply to wasteful to have been used on that ‘brotherhood’ group, as soon as he recalled that he had saved someone, he felt that it was worth it. Lying on his bed, he still couldn’t help but search up that moisturiser on his terminal, when he suddenly received a message from Fu Ke.

[Where are you right now? Are you okay?]

Ning An was confused by this sudden message, but he still replied: [I’m okay. I’m now in the dorms and about to sleep. Student Fu should also sleep early.]

Fu Ke’s message icon kept displaying that he was currently typing, causing Ning An to anxiously think that something big had happened. However, when he received a reply, it was just two words.

[Good night.]

It took you so long to type two words? Ning An stared at the two words for a moment. Forget it, let’s just go to sleep.
