A girl hurriedly tapped the person next to her, whispering behind Xie Yun’s back.
The person beside her only stole a glance before suppressing their voice. “Shh, keep it down. Don’t act like you’ve never seen the world. Is he really as beautiful as the forum says? I don’t believe it.”
The girl scoffed.
But as the boy’s voice trailed off, Xie Yun reached the corner of the stairs, and his gorgeous profile came into their view.
Long eyelashes, like the wings of a butterfly, slowly swept down. The youth’s elegant face was devoid of emotion.
He really is… so beautiful… the boy gasped in surprise.
Outside the cream-colored, European-style corridor, the locust trees were saturated with rainwater, which pattered rhythmically as it soaked the terrace.
The two entered the classroom.
Walking through the aisles of the crowded room, burning gazes and hushed whispers followed Xie Yun as he took a seat next to Lu Yibing.
As the latter draped his soaked jacket over the back of the chair, Xie Yun’s attention was captured by the desk beside him, which was covered in graffiti.
Immediately after, Lu Yibing quietly reached into the desk, pulled out a tissue, and fished out a dead rat.
The stench of a rotting corpse instantly spread through the area, followed by immediate snickering from the surroundings.
Xie Yun, whose gaze followed the action: “?”
The other boy’s face remained expressionless. He merely continued to quietly clean out the trash-filled desk drawer, as if he had long since grown accustomed to it.
No wonder Lu Yibing didn’t have a seatmate when Xie Yun first transferred here; he had been enduring bullying all along. (Note: This was not mentioned in the original book).
But this isn’t right, Xie Yun thought.
Although he knew the hierarchy in this prestigious academy was severe, those wearing the Bauhinia badge were supposed to be in the elite class.
Is the entire class composed of Alphas?
【Yes, Host. Aside from the two of you, the entire elite class consists of high-quality Alphas.】
【While the hierarchy based on flower rankings is indeed strict in this academy, it is the biological knowledge of ABO dynamics that leaves the deepest impression on them.】
【They collectively believe that the existence of an Omega is solely to bear children for Alphas, so…】
The System trailed off.
So that’s how it is.
Xie Yun’s brows furrowed.
“Let me help you.”
His voice was low and stern as he pulled a small bottle of cleaning agent from his bag.
Both the original host and the current Xie Yun were germaphobes, so he carried this kind of stain-removing spray with him.
He opened the cap, sprayed the graffiti a few times, and used a tissue to wipe the desk clean.
Seeing the two of them busy, the surrounding students widened their eyes in unison.
Lu Yibing whispered a “thank you” and tried to carefully take the tissue from him, smiling faintly. “I should do it.”
As his fingertips brushed against Xie Yun’s warm, soft knuckles, he stiffened and silently withdrew his hand.
A surge of heat rushed to Lu Yibing’s heart. He pursed his lips and carried the gathered trash to the bin.
“Take out yesterday’s homework; I’m going to conduct a random check.”
A wine-red skirt swayed gently in the breeze as a woman with long hair reaching her waist stepped into the room. She called out to the students.
The newcomer was Yu Yu, the teacher for the elite class and a senior educator in her forties.
She taught Chemistry. Her personality shifted between gentle and severe—like a rose with thorns. Her background was famously powerful; almost no one dared to act out in her class.
A leg that had been sticking out into the aisle was silently retracted.
Teacher Yu Yu walked to the podium, her gaze shifting to Lu Yibing, who had just reached the trash can. “Class has started. What are you doing?”
A small wave of muffled laughter broke out among the students frantically rummaging through their desks.
Hearing this, she frowned. “What are you laughing at? Get your homework!”
Lu Yibing offered an apologetic reply. The students fell silent and began pulling their assignments from their desks.
After throwing away the trash, he circled back to his seat. The woman on the podium stepped down.
The students sat up straight, each one breaking into a cold sweat. After checking and punishing several students who hadn’t finished their work, Yu Yu walked over to Xie Yun. She frowned slightly and tapped on his desk. “Student, why aren’t you wearing your school uniform?”
Her calm, steady voice fell upon him. Xie Yun lifted his eyes to meet hers.
Then, he stood up. “I’m sorry, Teacher. I just transferred here and didn’t know where to collect my uniform.”
The youth’s clear voice was tinged with a soft, apologetic tone.
A dark, gloomy gaze was fixed upon the person standing up.
Why does this Xie Yun drop all his coldness and become so well-behaved when facing a teacher?
Cui Yiyang, slumped on his desk, thought gloomily.
I’m the F1 of this prestigious academy, for heaven’s sake!
Yu Yu looked at him with a neutral expression and spoke warmly. “Oh, right. You’re the transfer student, aren’t you? I remember your custom-made uniform is at the logistics office. Have your seatmate take you there after class.”
As soon as she said this, someone couldn’t sit still. “Teacher, I also know where the logistics office is.”
“Turn in last week’s homework first, then we’ll talk.”
The teacher cast a flat look at Cui Yiyang before walking back to the podium and announcing two words: “Class begins.”
Cui Yiyang lost his momentum, slumped back onto his desk, and pulled out his phone.
『Felod Forum』
[OP: This bastard illegitimate son sure has good luck. [/Gritting teeth] [/Gritting teeth]]
[2L: I think so too.]
[3L: Same here.]
[4L: OP sounds like there’s a story here. Listening in.]
[5L: No need for OP to say it, I’ll tell you. Just now, XY helped LYB wipe his desk…]
[6L: Yes! It makes me so mad! Why should a beauty help him wipe his desk?! And just now when Teacher Yu asked why he wasn’t in uniform, that beauty stood right up like a little rabbit that had made a mistake. He was so obedient and soft.]
[7L: ? What’s the big deal about wiping a desk?]
[8L: Brother Zou said he wanted to give LYB a ‘surprise,’ so he had someone cover his desk in graffiti. In the end, XY played the hero saving the idiot and helped him wipe it all off.]
[9L: ……]
[10L: You guys are in the elite class, right? Even though I’m saying this, please don’t flame me, but is it really okay for a group of Alphas to keep bullying an Omega…]
[11L: Did we bully you? Shut your mouth. It’s his own fault for differentiating as an Omega! He walks around with a wooden face every day like everyone owes him millions. Don’t you know he’s not just an Omega, but an illegitimate son too? He’s disgusting.]
[12L: Listening in.]
[Reply to 12L: It was in the last post. Don’t ask.]
[14L: You guys are in the same class? I’m so jealous. [Biting handkerchief/]]
[Reply to 11L: 11L, what are you barking for? That XY is also a Beta, why don’t you guys bully him?]
[Reply to 15L: Scram. I’m not barking; this is just my personality.]
[Reply to 15L: Is XY the same? I think he’s so beautiful that he was born to entertain Alphas. I’m an Alpha, and I happen to dislike children anyway, so I’d be quite willing.]
[18L: +1]
[19L: +1]
[20L: I heard that if you go deep enough with Betas, they can also get pregnant. You don’t want kids because you’re impotent, right? [Wiping sweat/]
25L: Are you all reincarnated Teddy dogs?
The dizzying array of posts made Cui Yiyang’s eyes ache. He simply turned off his phone, but his gaze involuntarily drifted toward Xie Yun.
A slender, porcelain-white neck came into view. Seeing the way he straightened his back and listened intently to the lecture, Cui Yiyang only felt his cheeks grow hot.
This is crazy.
The dismissal bell had already rung for the second time. The teacher on the podium took a sip of tea and finally dismissed the class before walking out.
With a thud, someone blocked Xie Yun’s path just as he was about to stand up.
“Hey, transfer student. Why don’t I take you to the logistics office? ^^”
Cui Yiyang’s towering face appeared before both of their eyes.
