Chapter 78 Extra abo
After the winter break, Ye Qingyun and Gu Chenyuan returned to school.
After their conversations during the winter break, Ye Qingyun felt that his relationship with Gu Chenyuan had become much closer. He even dared to kick Gu Chenyuan's feet under the desk when he was bored in class, or to sleep with his head on Gu Chenyuan's arm during breaks.
Ye Qingyun hadn't originally intended to sleep with Gu Chenyuan as her pillow. Gu Chenyuan was a delicate and precious omega; how could she let him bully her like that? Her arm would get so tired.
However, every time he fell asleep with his head on his own, he would wake up to find himself resting his head on Gu Chenyuan's forearm.
Gu Chenyuan not only didn't stop him, but when he was still pretending to be asleep and awkwardly trying to move away, he protected his face from hitting the cold, hard table and moved his head back onto himself.
Ye Qingyun: ...Wow.
How thoughtful! How can there be such a gentle omega? He's so cute! He's practically his ideal type!
I wonder which alpha will be lucky enough to marry such an outstanding omega as Gu Chenyuan in the future?
————
It wasn't long before everyone knew that Ye Qingyun was an omega.
The alpha who had designs on Ye Qingyun was arrested on charges of attempted murder of an omega, and as the victim, Ye Qingyun's sexual orientation quickly became public knowledge.
Since then, Ye Qingyun's desk has been filled with countless love letters from a fanatical alpha.
Ye Qingyun was no stranger to this phenomenon, and she handled all the love letters with ease every day.
That day, after Ye Qingyun finished dealing with the love letters, she was about to chat with Gu Chenyuan when she noticed that Gu Chenyuan seemed rather unhappy.
"Are you unhappy?" Ye Qingyun asked.
"No," Gu Chenyuan replied coldly.
Ye Qingyun was now certain that Gu Chenyuan was unhappy.
Ye Qingyun thought for a moment and comforted her, "Don't be angry. After you differentiate, you'll receive more love letters than I did. Look, I didn't receive any love letters before I differentiated either. Alphas and omegas are afraid of falling for people of the same sex, and betas don't want to fall for people of either alpha or omega. So everyone sends love letters to people who have already differentiated. Don't be angry."
Gu Chenyuan's fingertips turned white as he gripped the pen, and Ye Qingyun even suspected that Gu Chenyuan wanted to crush the pen.
Gu Chenyuan said coldly, "I'm not angry because of that. I'm just... never mind, it's nothing, I won't say anything more."
Since Gu Chenyuan refused to talk about it, Ye Qingyun could only try to avoid the topic in their daily conversations.
As the days passed by while she was studying, Ye Qingyun encountered new troubles.
A famous, rich, and handsome alpha from the whole school confessed to him, saying that he had been secretly watching him for a long time. After learning about his differentiation results, although he knew that studying was the priority, he couldn't help but want to let him know his feelings and hoped that they could be together.
Ye Qingyun refused without hesitation, but the alpha did not give up. Instead, he said, "There is pheromone attraction between alphas and alphas. I really like your pheromones. Why don't you smell mine too? You'll like it."
Ye Qingyun ignored him, held his breath, and left quickly without looking back.
Ye Qingyun heard the footsteps of the alpha chasing after them, but the footsteps didn't get close because they were blocked by another person.
Ye Qingyun turned around and saw a familiar figure from behind.
Ye Qingyun stopped in her tracks, surprised, and said, "Gu Chenyuan, what are you doing here...?"
Gu Chenyuan turned his head to look at them, his expression gloomy, as if he was suppressing some kind of emotion that was about to erupt, and said coldly, "Let's go."
Ye Qingyun paused, then quickly left.
Gu Chenyuan's expression was not good, and Ye Qingyun felt she could understand.
As friends, they were quite similar in many ways, so the sudden difference in their circumstances could easily make people feel unbalanced. That's why he had been trying to avoid discussing this matter for a while, hoping that Gu Chenyuan could recover.
But now it seems that Gu Chenyuan has not only not recovered, but his emotions have become even more serious.
Ye Jinyun did not go back to her own home, but went to Gu Chenyuan's house and squatted at the door waiting for Gu Chenyuan to return.
He had to talk Gu Chenyuan out of it; he couldn't let their relationship continue in this strange state, as it was too easy for it to affect their feelings.
Ye Qingyun waited and waited, and finally Gu Chenyuan returned.
"Gu Chenyuan, go back—"
Ye Qingyun shut his mouth in shock. He saw a bruise on the corner of Gu Chenyuan's mouth, as if he had been punched.
"Who bullied you? Is there no justice in this world?!" Ye Qingyun stood up abruptly, angrily leaning closer to check where Gu Chenyuan was hurt, and said furiously, "I'll go with you to tell the teacher, this is just too much!"
“He was more seriously injured than me.” Gu Chenyuan seemed indifferent to his own injuries, instead emphasizing something that Ye Qingyun considered completely unimportant: “I won.”
"...Huh? You fought with him?" Ye Qingyun was a little confused; this was indeed an unexpected development.
What kind of omega would beat up an alpha just because they're jealous that their omega friend is being pursued by an alpha? That's a really bizarre line of thinking.
Ye Qingyun asked Gu Chenyuan to open the door, pulled him inside, and examined his wounds.
Ye Qingyun applied the red antiseptic she had rummaged through drawers to find to Gu Chenyuan, saying with concern, "Why did you fight with him? What if he tells the teacher? His family is well-off, and the teacher might favor him. You'll get punished again then."
With medicine applied to his wounds, Gu Chenyuan didn't even lift his eyelids, and said calmly, "He wouldn't dare say that it's a great disgrace for an alpha to fight against someone who hasn't even differentiated yet and lose."
Ye Qingyun: "...Okay, it is quite embarrassing."
Ye Qingyun continued applying medicine to Gu Chenyuan. After a moment of silence, Ye Qingyun spoke up, "Chenyuan, shall we talk?"
Gu Chenyuan didn't respond, so Ye Qingyun continued on her own: "Don't be angry about love letters anymore during this time. I want to be your friend for life. Don't let things like this affect our relationship, okay?"
Gu Chenyuan raised his eyes, and their gazes met. Gu Chenyuan's dark eyes were like a bottomless well, making it impossible to see through his emotions.
Ye Qingyun paused for a moment, then continued, "You are outstanding, more outstanding than anyone else. In the future, many alphas will definitely like you, so there is no need for the two of us to cause friction over this."
"I hope that many years from now, even after we've both gotten married, we can still maintain this feeling, okay?"
Ye Qingyun looked at Gu Chenyuan expectantly, waiting for his response.
Gu Chenyuan stared at him silently for a long time before parting his thin lips and uttering a few words: "Not good."
Gu Chenyuan's dark eyes were like frozen, stagnant water, devoid of any warmth that Ye Qingyun needed. He continued, "I don't want an alpha, and I don't want to continue being your friend."
Ye Qingyun felt a chill in her heart, but conversely, her body began to feel hot.
Ye Qingyun's eyes stung, and his heart felt like it was about to explode. He tried to stand up and leave, but his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground the next second.
His first heat cycle actually started at this time.
"...Qingyun?" Gu Chenyuan immediately picked Ye Qingyun up, his voice full of worry, "What's wrong with you?"
Gu Chenyuan's concern at this moment made Ye Qingyun even more heartbroken. He tried his best not to look so embarrassed: "It's...it's a symptom of heat. I have suppressants in my bag. Please get them for me."
Ye Qingyun was carefully placed on a chair, and Gu Chenyuan quickly brought him an inhibitor and fed it into his mouth.
Inhibitors can quickly prevent AOs from smelling each other's pheromones and restore basic rationality, but they cannot alleviate the heat of estrus so quickly.
Ye Qingyun felt hot all over, his pheromones surging uncontrollably, clamoring for him to have intimate contact with someone else.
As an omega, he desperately needs someone to comfort him during his heat cycle; this can be considered a basic, psychological, and physiological need.
But this could have been tolerated under the influence of inhibitors.
Ye Qingyun looked at Gu Chenyuan, who was standing in front of him and watching him intently, and instinctively hugged him.
To Ye Qingyun's surprise, Gu Chenyuan hugged him even tighter.
What happened next was chaotic. By the time Ye Qingyun's heat was completely suppressed, he had already confessed to Gu Chenyuan several times.
Once she regained her senses, Ye Qingyun, disregarding the fact that Gu Chenyuan was a delicate omega, punched him hard on the shoulder: "You said you didn't want to be friends with me, and yet you're helping me like this! You bastard, I'm warning you, if you say you're breaking up with me again, I'll get angry!"
Gu Chenyuan helped Ye Qingyun straighten her disheveled clothes and said softly, "I never said I wanted to break off our friendship."
Ye Qingyun was furious at Gu Chenyuan's shameless behavior: "If you don't want to be friends with me, what is this if not breaking off our friendship? I still remember it!"
"I don't want to be your friend, I want to be your boyfriend."
Ye Qingyun was stunned.
Gu Chenyuan reached out and grasped his hand: "Before, I thought I would wait until I differentiated and confirmed my second gender before confessing to you... but I couldn't hold back anymore."
Those eyesores surrounded Ye Qingyun day and night, gradually eroding his patience.
"No matter what gender I become in the future, I will always be good to you. Whatever you want, I will find a way to get it for you." Gu Chenyuan leaned closer again and hugged Ye Qingyun's waist. "Qingyun, be with me."
Ye Qingyun blushed.
So it turns out Gu Chenyuan wasn't jealous before, he was just jealous.
OO love, so fashionable, no wonder she's the main character!
He's so happy.
Ye Qingyun rested her head on Gu Chenyuan's shoulder and whispered, "Okay, okay, let's be together then."
————
Ye Qingyun thus began his double Omega love affair. He originally thought that Omega love would definitely be very pure, because it was unrelated to pheromones, so it would most likely be just holding hands and even kissing would be gentle and tender.
However, Ye Qingyun soon discovered how wrong this conjecture was.
Gu Chenyuan seemed to have impure thoughts about him.
That's terrifying.
He likes it.
He didn't deliberately hide his relationship with Gu Chenyuan, so everyone found out quickly.
It seemed no one took this relationship seriously, and no one believed they could really make it work. Even the homeroom teacher, who strictly forbade students from dating, only reminded them to be careful not to let their grades drop and to continue working hard for the college entrance exam. He didn't offer any further advice on not being impulsive or getting pregnant before marriage.
Everyone also felt that Gu Chenyuan was an omega. It was a strange subconscious feeling, and no one knew why it arose. It might be because Gu Chenyuan's appearance was more beautiful than handsome.
Only Ye Qingyun knew how serious Gu Chenyuan was about him, and how impulsive he was when facing him.
Fortunately, he was still focused on his studies, adhering to his principles and insisting on leaving a certain matter for after the college entrance examination. Otherwise, he was afraid that if he tasted success, Gu Chenyuan's grades would plummet.
————
Their high school life ended amidst diligent study and sweet romance. Ye Qingyun and Gu Chenyuan's results came out, with Ye Qingyun living up to expectations and becoming the top scorer in the province, while Gu Chenyuan came in second.
On the night the results were announced, the two of them didn't discuss which schools to apply to, but instead embarked on another important task.
That night, Ye Qingyun's pheromones filled the entire bedroom.
————
When it came time to choose a university, Ye Qingyun consulted with Gu Chenyuan about which universities they should apply to.
"Which school do you want to apply to? I want to go to a scientific research institution, what about you?" Ye Qingyun asked.
"...I want to mark you."
Ye Qingyun: "...Can you be serious for once and talk about serious matters?"
Gu Chenyuan leaned closer and sniffed at the back of Ye Qingyun's fair neck.
Last night, he had clearly imbued Ye Qingyun with his scent so many times, but today, he couldn't smell a trace of his scent on her.
For this reason, even when they go outside, those reckless alphas still dare to pester them, treating them only as ordinary friends.
He wanted to become an alpha and leave his mark on Ye Qingyun forever.
But what if he's not an alpha?
He needs to become stronger, so strong that no matter what gender he eventually becomes, no one will dare to look at Ye Qingyun again.
He's going to military school.
————
Three months later, at the airport.
Before boarding the plane, Ye Qingyun was still very worried. She held Gu Chenyuan's hand and said, "Chenyuan, there are so many strong Alphas in the military academy. You are a gentle omega, so you must take good care of yourself, you know?"
Gu Chenyuan's lips twitched, but he ultimately didn't correct Ye Qingyun's choice of words. He simply said, "You'll see the same thing over there. Those people are so scheming and backstabbing. If they bully you, tell me, and I'll find a way to help you."
Ye Qingyun didn't say anything, but gave Gu Chenyuan a long hug.
When it was time to board, Ye Qingyun waved goodbye to Gu Chenyuan and boarded the plane.
————
It was the agreed-upon video call time. After class, Ye Qingyun returned to her dormitory, turned on the video, and began their rare video call time with Gu Chenyuan.
The video call was quickly connected, and Gu Chenyuan's image appeared on the screen.
After such a long time apart, Gu Chenyuan looked even taller, and he exuded a chilling aura, making him seem even more unapproachable than before.
If Ye Qingyun hadn't known Gu Chenyuan, she might have mistaken him for an alpha.
Ye Qingyun joked, "With so many handsome guys around you, have any of them taken a liking to you and want to pursue you?"
When these words reached the ears of the alphas who shared a dorm with Gu Chenyuan, everyone shuddered, hugged themselves in fear, and put on a mournful face to prove their innocence.
Gu Ge's partner is terrifying; they dare to make such jokes. They're not crazy!
But who exactly is this person who can find such a fierce and intimidating person as their partner and even tame this evil star so well?
Gu Chenyuan smiled and said, "They wouldn't dare."
"Hahaha." Ye Qingyun laughed out loud. He didn't think Gu Chenyuan was telling the truth at all, but only thought that Gu Chenyuan was joking.
After laughing, Ye Qingyun became serious and instructed, "Although you haven't differentiated yet, you should still carry inhibitors with you at all times, just in case, understand?"
“I…” Gu Chenyuan paused before saying, “Next time we meet, I have some good news to tell you.”
————
"Have you heard? That alpha at the military academy? I heard that as soon as his pheromones come out, alphas kneel down in worship, and omegas go weak in the knees and turn into whimpering monsters. He's an absolutely terrifyingly powerful Alpha!"
"I've heard about it too. I heard he's super handsome. Maybe I'll get to meet him in person and smell his pheromones. I'm so excited!"
"Don't just look at the pheromones, okay? That alpha completed an impossible task before, which shocked all the big shots. You could say he has a bright future ahead of him."
"Qingyun, what do you think?"
Ye Qingyun, who was suddenly called upon, smiled and said, "No, I just want to see my boyfriend."
Good-natured laughter rang out from all around, and just as the topic was about to change, a sarcastic voice suddenly rang out: "Your boyfriend? That poor kid who came from who-knows-where? Haha, standing next to that alpha, he probably wouldn't even be able to lift his head."
An awkward silence fell over the surroundings. Ye Qingyun's face turned cold: "Instead of worrying about others, you should worry about yourself. Standing here, can you even hold your head up?"
The man stopped talking, pulled over a blanket, closed his eyes, and pretended to be asleep.
This group of elites from the scientific research academy received an invitation from the military academy to visit and learn. The person who mocked Ye Qingyun, however, had gotten in through connections, his aim being to seize this opportunity to publicly ridicule Ye Qingyun, who always seemed to outshine him, implying she could only find a worthless boyfriend.
All around was quiet. Ye Qingyun lowered her head and sent a message to Gu Chenyuan.
Military academies are strictly managed, and it's unclear when Gu Chenyuan will be able to see it.
He wasn't interested in any earth-shattering A-ranks; Gu Chenyuan had also participated in that mission and completed it just as well.
Military academy management is strict, and he and Gu Chenyuan haven't been able to see each other for a long time. This time when they meet, they must get to know each other better.
When Gu Chenyuan video-chatted with him last time, he told him that he had some good news to tell him when they met. He wondered what the good news was.
————
Ye Qingyun received a reply from Gu Chenyuan. Gu Chenyuan was extremely excited and asked where she was. He then said with great guilt that he couldn't leave for the time being.
Ye Qingyun expressed his understanding. He wasn't in a hurry to see Gu Chenyuan right away, so he continued to follow his companions and was taken on a tour of the school by the school staff.
There were countless alphas in the military academy, and when they saw Ye Qingyun, their eyes practically popped out of their sockets. They all struck their coolest poses, trying to get Ye Qingyun's attention.
Ye Qingyun was under immense pressure from encountering so many alphas at once, and secretly sent a message to Gu Chenyuan to complain:
Wow, there are so many alphas at your school!
[They're so enthusiastic! But the pheromones are so strong, the air smells weird.]
[How do you usually spend your time, Shen Yuan? If it gets too bad, we should just drop out of school. After all, your health is the most important thing!]
Gu Chenyuan: 【…Who are they? Take pictures of them and send them to me.】
Ye Qingyun: [?]
After a moment, Gu Chenyuan replied: [It's okay. If any of them make things difficult for you, just mention my name.]
Ye Qingyun didn't feel like he was being made difficult. He looked at the text message, which seemed like it was trying to cause trouble, and decided to pretend he hadn't seen it.
At the end of their campus tour, the school staff told them that a welcome dinner had been prepared for them that evening, and they hoped that everyone could attend.
He also frequently implied that many of their outstanding students were also attending the party, and that everyone could interact more.
The implication of the statement that the vast majority of people here are single is self-evident.
Ye Qingyun saw the guy who had come in through the back door and had always been against him snort and gave him a malicious look.
————
Gu Chenyuan put down the phone he had picked up during a break in others' reports, looked around, and frowned with some impatience.
He completed a task some time ago, which earned him the favor of those senior colleagues, and as a result, he received countless offers of opportunities.
“I’ve heard all your reports. You’ve done a great job!” an elderly man with gray hair said cheerfully. “But we don’t need to be so serious now. You outstanding young people should chat a bit more.”
The young man the old man was referring to was an omega sitting not far from Gu Chenyuan. He had been gazing at Gu Chenyuan with affectionate eyes for some time, and upon hearing the old man's words, he immediately sat up straight and softly said, "Classmate Gu—"
The old man watched all this with a smile. This young man was a perfect match for their Omega. Although there had been no prior communication, he was sure Gu Chenyuan wouldn't refuse him this favor.
Gu Chenyuan really didn't give him that face.
Gu Chenyuan stood up: "I'm sorry, my wife is here to see me, so I'm afraid I can't stay here any longer. I've finished my report, so I'll have to take my leave now."
Gu Chenyuan strode away without looking back, and soon he found that his accomplices had caught up with him.
"Hey, Brother Gu!" The boy who caught up was panting. "Why did you leave? Didn't you see how ugly those two looked?"
"So what?" Gu Chenyuan said expressionlessly.
"You really are..." The boy sighed helplessly. He advised, "Yes, even without them, with your abilities, Brother Gu, you could definitely climb the ranks. But with their support, it would be so much easier! Brother Gu, haven't you been working hard for this all along? You could easily reach even higher goals! That omega is also very beautiful, no less so than your current girlfriend, right?"
Such persuasion would be hard for an ordinary person to resist. However, Gu Chenyuan gave the boy a cold look, then turned and left.
No matter who it is, they are all far inferior to Ye Qingyun.
He did crave status and glory, but not for himself; rather, he wanted to give Ye Qingyun a better life.
If Ye Qingyun's figure is not in that bright future, then it has no meaning for him. He would be happier than when he slept with Ye Qingyun in a narrow bed many years ago.
————
Unable to refuse the invitation, Ye Qingyun went to the banquet, intending to simply eat something and chat with the others.
He texted Gu Chenyuan, telling him he was there and that Gu Chenyuan could come over when he was free. If Gu Chenyuan wasn't free, they would meet at another time.
Gu Chenyuan replied to his message shortly afterward, saying that he was on his way.
So Ye Qingyun waited happily, but even though he sat in the corner quite consciously, he couldn't stop the swarms of admirers coming toward him.
"May I have the honor of dancing with you?"
"Oh, you look so familiar, like I've seen you somewhere before. How about we have a drink, sit down, and chat?"
Do you have a boyfriend? What do you think of me? I'm a super fighter!
Ye Qingyun: "..."
Ye Qingyun replied uniformly: "Sorry, I have a boyfriend. He is also a student here, and I am waiting for him to come."
"Oh?" Everyone was shocked. A few people, unconvinced, shouted, "Who is he? What's his name? He might not even be as good as me. Wouldn't it be better to dump him and be with me?"
Ye Qingyun was genuinely worried they might cause trouble for Gu Chenyuan, so she explained, "You can't say that. Although Gu Chenyuan—"
"Wait a minute! Who did you say?" Ye Qingyun's words were interrupted, and everyone sitting around him straightened up and stared wide-eyed.
“Gu Chenyuan…”
"brush--"
These words seemed like some kind of terrifying curse. The alphas sitting next to Ye Qingyun immediately took off running, faster than rabbits, and disappeared in just a few seconds.
Ye Qingyun: "...?"
what happened?
Before Ye Qingyun could think about why these people were running away, another acquaintance appeared in front of him.
The omega who had always opposed him in school walked up to him with an arrogant expression, arm in arm with a tall alpha.
"Oh, you're here! Come on, let me introduce you. This is my new boyfriend. He's ranked second in the whole school. Isn't that amazing? Where's your boyfriend?" After saying that, the omega pretended to be surprised and covered his mouth, saying, "Why are you sitting here alone? Is your boyfriend too scared to come? Are you afraid of losing face?"
The omega turned to the alpha he was holding: "Darling, don't you think I'm right?"
The alpha looked at Ye Qingyun with eyes full of amazement. He straightened his posture and said in a gruff voice, "That's right! Those who didn't come at this time are all trash students who weren't invited, not worth mentioning—"
Ye Qingyun frowned, about to speak, when he saw the alpha looking behind him with a look of panic on his face.
Before the alpha could finish speaking, he ran away as fast as a ghost seeing the King of Hell.
Ye Qingyun: "?"
This is the second time he's encountered this situation tonight. What's going on?
As Ye Qingyun turned around, a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind, pulling her into a familiar embrace.
"Qingyun," Gu Chenyuan's voice sounded behind him, and he was surrounded by an overwhelming amount of alpha pheromones, "Finally... I see you again."
————
Ye Qingyun's first thought was that Gu Chenyuan had been marked by some alpha, because he was emitting such a strong alpha scent.
But soon, he realized something was wrong.
This faint pheromone, like a sharp wind, was not from anyone else; it was emitted by Gu Chenyuan himself.
Could Gu Chenyuan be an alpha?
How could Gu Chenyuan be an alpha? That doesn't make sense! Did he transmigrate into the wrong novel?
Ye Qingyun was stunned. He was pulled back to his dormitory in a daze.
Gu Chenyuan has now moved to a single dormitory room, where he lives alone without any other roommates.
Gu Chenyuan closed the door and took Ye Qingyun's hand.
"This is the good news I wanted to tell you before." Gu Chenyuan became nervous at this point. "I... I'm an alpha, not an omega. Will you still like me?"
What if Ye Qingyun likes omegas and not alphas?
Ye Qingyun asked in a daze, "How did you differentiate into an alpha? This doesn't make sense."
“That’s not surprising,” Gu Chenyuan said, carefully holding Ye Qingyun in his arms. “Qingyun, I… I’ve been dreaming of marking you.”
Ye Qingyun knew that Gu Chenyuan was telling the truth.
Gu Chenyuan continued, "Whether I'm an omega or an alpha, I'm still me, and I love you the same way."
Ye Qingyun: "I know."
The two exchanged a tender kiss, and after a while, their lips parted.
Gu Chenyuan did not let go of Ye Qingyun; instead, he pulled her even closer into his arms.
Ye Qingyun closed her eyes and leaned on Gu Chenyuan's shoulder for a moment, then heard Gu Chenyuan speak: "Qingyun, I want to mark you, you... are you willing?"
Would you be willing to be marked by him and carry his pheromones with you?
Sensing Gu Chenyuan's unease, Ye Qingyun smiled.
He put his arm around Gu Chenyuan's neck: "Then let's do it."
