Chapter 1 Chapter 1 The posture of the two people could almost be called intimate...
Shi Yi and his mother Xu Zhuru moved the boxes from the trunk to the door of their home.
He straightened up and turned to look at the small courtyard of the four-bedroom apartment.
Unlike the apartment building I lived in before, this is a separate apartment, across the street from my neighbors, and I rarely meet people when I go out.
He withdrew his gaze, moved Xu Zhuru's luggage to her room, and then moved his own.
Xu Zhuru was tidying up some bottles and jars in the kitchen.
They moved a little bit of stuff every day for the past half month, and today there are only some scattered things left that need to be sorted out.
After Shi Yi finished cleaning his room, Xu Zhuru asked him to go out for food.
"I didn't have time to cook, so I made some noodles and fried two eggs for you. You have to eat them all." Xu Zhuru said.
Shi Yi obediently sat down cross-legged next to the low table.
He has been busy since school and is indeed a little hungry.
Even though the fried egg in the bowl was still hard for him to swallow, he swallowed it in one gulp and then drank a mouthful of noodle soup.
Xu Zhuru has always been good at cooking noodles.
Shi Yi smiled and said, "It's delicious."
It is only the middle of May now, and Shucheng is still scorching hot in the evening.
Sitting in the house, I can still clearly hear the cicadas gasping for breath on the branches.
Shi Yi tilted his head and listened for a while, vaguely distinguishing Xu Zhuru's next topic.
The graduation exam is coming soon.
You should be an adult too.
Learn to be self-disciplined, especially avoid having too much interaction with the alphas and omegas in school.
When Shi Yi stood up to pour water, Xu Zhuru was saying, "Mom has no other wishes, she just wants our family of three to live peacefully forever."
"There's nothing wrong with being a beta. Look at your uncle. He wasn't satisfied with his beta status and tried every possible way to divide us, but in the end he ended up like this..."
Shi Yi placed the water cup in front of Xu Zhuru and said softly, "Mom, I'm going to do my homework. You're tired today, so go to bed early."
Xu Zhuru looked up at Shi Yi.
Shi Yi was wearing a simple black T-shirt and standing sideways. He had a thin body, but the boy was growing up very fast, so she had to tilt her head back to see her son's face clearly.
Shi Yi raised his lips slightly, revealing the dimples on his cheeks.
He casually tied up his slightly long hair with a rubber band.
He has an extremely handsome face, unlike the ordinary and featureless beta in the eyes of most people.
Xu Zhuru nodded in surprise: "Go do your homework. If it gets hot, turn on the air conditioner."
Shi Yi responded and pushed the door open to go out.
His room is the second one on the right.
All the things that were in the room before had been moved in and arranged in a familiar way for him.
This courtyard has actually been bought by my father a few years ago, but he has been busy with work and has never put the renovation on the agenda.
After being renovated for several months last year, Shi Yi thought that this courtyard was going to be used by his father's employees, but unexpectedly, it was their whole family who moved in.
His room is the largest of the four rooms and has a separate bathroom.
Perhaps Xu Zhuru felt that her son was grown up and it was time for him to have his own privacy.
Shi Yi took off his T-shirt and walked into the bathroom when his cell phone rang. He put the phone on the table and turned on the speakerphone.
"Shi Yi, do you still remember tomorrow's competition? Are you sure you want to participate?" It was Chen Yunsheng from the same class.
"Remember, make sure." Shi Yi looked at the mirror in front of him lazily.
"Tomorrow is the last game. The team we are facing is composed entirely of alpha players, and several of them have already backed out," said Chen Yunsheng.
"If you're willing to come on, I might be able to persuade them again," he continued.
"Although it's basically impossible for us to win, with you here, we won't lose too badly. I still have confidence in this."
"I'll play." Shi Yi interrupted him.
"And we will win," Shi Yi moved his fingers, and the water from the showerhead drowned out the rest of his words. "What's there to be afraid of as an alpha?"
Chen Yunsheng wanted to speak again, but there was only a busy tone on the other end of the phone.
-
Shi Yi stands out among the betas with a height of 185 cm.
After careful selection, Geya Middle School could only find a maximum of five betas that were over 180 cm tall.
In contrast, their opponents in the finals, a group of wildly growing alphas, all had an average height of over 190cm.
Beta is inherently weaker than alpha and has an unavoidable psychological fear.
But it was this team, a team that was not outstanding in height and physical fitness, that Shi Yi brought to the finals of the Geya Middle School basketball game.
After class, Shi Yi took out a basketball from his desk and ran straight to the basketball court.
Chen Yunsheng chased after him: "Shi Yi, slow down, wait for me."
"You're not competing, why should I wait for you?" Shi Yi just said lightly.
The tall and thin figure walked further and further away.
"But I'm the manager of the basketball team." Chen Yunsheng felt very aggrieved.
Although he is also a beta, his physical strength is obviously much weaker.
He had to stop and rest after running only 500 meters.
When I looked up, Shi Yi had already run into the basketball hall.
Following behind Shi Yi were quite a few petite omegas and betas.
It seems that they all went to the basketball court to be spectators.
For a match like this where there is no suspense whatsoever, the alphas probably wouldn't bother to watch it.
In their opinion, the so-called honor gained from the game is far less than their one-second appearance in the family.
Chen Yunsheng ran to the basketball hall panting and found the court where Shi Yi was. Just as he was about to shout Shi Yi's name loudly, his voice suddenly became hoarse.
The sudden appearance of a row of dark shadows behind him and the sudden sense of oppression made him feel awed and unable to help but look back.
Those who are over 190cm tall are from the Alpha team...
No, the leading alpha had already made it clear that he would not participate in boring basketball.
Before Gong Yulo's eyes turned to him, Chen Yunsheng accelerated into the court and went straight to Shi Yi's side.
"Shi Yi, Shi Yi, Gong Yulo is here--" Chen Yunsheng looked panicked.
"Gong Yulo?" Shi Yi frowned.
He naturally knew Gong Yulo, Geya's top alpha, who was incredibly handsome and extremely popular. He even took first place in the national joint entrance examination not long ago.
Several key universities have extended him admission invitations. He is undoubtedly the only heir to the Gong family in the future, an existence that is out of reach in the eyes of most people.
But Shi Yi thinks Gong Yulo is shit.
No matter how awesome he is, it has nothing to do with him.
What's more, Gong Yulo is not so perfect, and the things he does behind the scenes are not so presentable.
There's no need to treat him as a god, since he isn't one anyway.
Although he didn't care in his heart, the sense of oppression when Gong Yuluo walked into the court was still hard to ignore.
This is the natural physiological advantage of alpha over beta.
Although betas cannot smell alphas' pheromones, pheromones are never just something that can be smelled.
Shi Yi put on his basketball jersey over his T-shirt and looked back at the place where he felt the strongest sense of oppression.
Gong Yulo always wears his school uniform on campus and this time is no exception.
Geya’s school uniforms are divided into different colors according to gender. Alpha’s uniform is dark blue, Omega’s is sky blue, and Beta’s is dark gray.
In addition, the patterns on the shoulder badges are also differentiated: alpha is an eagle, omega is a butterfly, and beta is a white dove.
Shi Yi still remembers the first time he got his school uniform in his freshman year of high school. The betas around him were all indignant: "Isn't this sex discrimination?"
Only Shi Yi changed into the dark grey school uniform and said nonchalantly, "If a piece of clothing can discriminate against you, then you are not very good."
Shi Yi speaks bluntly in school and has no idea what being subtle is. In the beginning, he made countless enemies, but now he has become the beta light.
As soon as he made eye contact with Gong Yulo, the voices cheering for him from the sidelines suddenly became a sea.
80% of them were betas cheering, with a small number of omegas.
There was no cheering from the Alpha sidelines, and the momentum seemed a lot weaker.
But as soon as Gong Yulo took a step into the field, the cheers for Beta from outside the field immediately died down.
Even the Alpha players who were warming up on the sidelines were flattered.
Is Gong Yulo here to cheer them on?
I've never heard of it before.
This game is so important?
-
The betas and omegas outside the field began to whisper: "The alpha leader is here? Could he be the sixth man?"
Everyone who has been in Geya for three years knows that Gong Yulo is a very good player and has led the Alpha team to win the provincial league championship.
He did not participate in this year's competition, which put pressure on other participating alphas.
If I don’t win the championship, I will probably be scolded.
However, since the opponent this time is just an ordinary beta team, it seems that the outcome is already decided.
Gong Yulo looked into Shi Yi's eyes, but Shi Yi quickly looked away, as if he didn't hear the discussions on the sidelines.
Shi Yi threw the ball to the ground and tapped it twice, reminding his teammates: "You, go stretch. You've been standing there motionless since just now. If you don't run a few steps soon, you'll get cramps."
Shi Yi threw himself into pre-match training and gradually put everything outside the field behind him.
The time was 3:57, and the referee signaled in the center of the field that the game was about to begin.
Shi Yi waved to his teammates to gather around and prepare for the final pre-match mobilization.
He only said a few words and high-fived his teammates.
Then he raised his right wrist, hooked the rubber band on his right wrist with his fingers, and tied it to the end of his hair with his backhand.
It was a very casual action, but it caused screams from outside the venue.
Some omegas secretly held up Shi Yi's support banners outside the venue.
Gong Yulo was originally standing motionless outside the court, but at this time he took two steps inside.
The Alpha team members standing by were dumbfounded. "No, big brother, the game is about to start, and you're coming up now to put pressure on us?"
But Gong Yulo did not stop in front of them, but continued to move forward.
The screams from outside the court almost blew the roof off the basketball court.
Chen Yunsheng's fingers were shaking: "He, he, he is coming, he, he..."
"What are you shaking for?" Shi Yi glanced at him.
He was about to walk onto the court for a jump ball, but he stopped when he caught a glimpse of a dark blue shirt out of the corner of his eye.
Gong Yuluo?
Is he...looking for me for something?
Want to shock me with words?
Give me a warning?
Shi Yi calmed himself down and prepared to face Gong Yulo before facing the Alpha team.
Gong Yuluo stopped in front of him.
His height of 196 cm is intimidating even without words.
Shi Yi looked at him stubbornly with his head slightly tilted up.
Lose the battle but not the battle.
He smiled coldly, intending to strike first before Gong Yulo could speak.
Gong Yulo lowered his head slightly, his lips almost touching his ear.
Their posture was almost intimate.
Then Gong Yuluo said two words in his ear expressionlessly:
"come on."
