Chapter 4040 Are you willing to pretend secondary differentiation?
Liang Guanyue saw what the omega, whose body had transformed into a worm, looked like on the school's news screen.
He stopped in front of the tall light screen, his brows unconsciously furrowed. The limbs and body of the omega inside had completely transformed into the appearance of Zerg, with a pair of black and green wings spread out behind it. Only the part above the neck still looked human.
A very familiar face. Liang Guanyue remembered that this omega once smashed his inhibitor and asked in tears why he differentiated into an alpha while he was an omega.
I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for two or three years, his fate and this person's fate would be so different.
Fana nudged him and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Are you engrossed in it? We still have a mecha piloting class later."
"...Hmm." Liang Guanyue withdrew her gaze. "I was wondering, should I say he's lucky or unlucky?"
"Lucky?" She rubbed her arms in disgust, goose bumps forming. "Living like this is better than being dead."
Liang Guanyue said: "At least he survived among a group of test subjects, right?"
Fana shook her head: "A person must first be a person before there is meaning in life."
Liang Guanyue scoffed, "But many people in this world don't have a choice." He pressed the brim of his baseball cap. "But that has nothing to do with me."
Just as he was about to leave, Fan Na suddenly grabbed him and said in surprise, "Oh, it's the Fourth Prince! He rarely appears on the big screen!"
Liang Guanyue said uninterestedly, "Let's go. Weren't you urging me just now?"
Fanna said, "I've finished reading it. I heard he was responsible for what happened in Area 06 and he handled it very well."
She refused to let Liang Guanyue leave, and Liang Guanyue had no choice but to wait for Fu Yunlu to finish her report.
Good morning, fellow citizens of Ninoy Aquino.
Fu Yunlu stood at the podium, back straight. Behind him, the blue wall bore the silver-white emblem of Ninoy Aquino. His hair was combed back, revealing his fair, well-defined face. The tiny mole beneath his lip, on the high-definition screen, always caught the eye of omegas and betas. His dark blue eyes gazed calmly and confidently at the camera, his royal demeanor embodied vividly in this video of him reporting to the citizens.
As the lead investigator for the human parasite transformation incident in District 06, I have worked with the special task force, the military district, the research institute, and other parties to continuously tackle the problem. After two months, the source has been identified. I will now provide an overall report on the investigation.
This incident stems from illegal black market transactions in Area 06. A criminal group has used technology banned by the Federation to fuse Zerg genes with human genes. However, this fusion is contagious, and the main route of transmission is sexual intercourse.
The illegal black market trading network has been completely dismantled, with all existing dens completely eliminated. Over 400 million yuan worth of materials have been seized, eight individuals have been summarily executed, and 37 suspects have been criminally detained. While the channels have been physically blocked, we remain vigilant in our pursuit of the core criminal group behind the scenes.
Fu Yunlu took off the wide-brimmed hat on her head, put it on her chest, and bowed slightly to the camera.
Please rest assured, citizens. The federal government has initiated the highest level of investigation. The President signed a special executive order today establishing an inter-agency investigation team to thoroughly investigate all individuals and organizations involved. This type of experimentation constitutes a serious violation of humanitarian principles and the federal Biosafety Act, and constitutes a federal felony.
[We pledge to all citizens with the credit of the Federation: the truth will never be buried, and justice will penetrate any darkness.]
After reading it, Fanna sighed and patted Liang Guanyue's shoulder: "An alpha should be like the Fourth Prince." She fantasized, "If I also have an alpha child as outstanding as the Fourth Prince in the future——"
"You want to be his mother?" Liang Guanyue said with a smile.
Fanna rolled her eyes at him and said, "What do you know? If I were his mother, I'd wake up laughing in my dreams, okay?"
Liang Guanyue recalled what Fu Yunlu had said about his home: "That's not necessarily true."
"Hey, what do you mean—"
Liang Guanyue waved her hand: "Let's go, we're going to be late."
It has been more than two months since Fu Yunlu left the main city, and Liang Guanyue returned to the main city a month and a half ago.
He didn't stay in District 06 for long. After confirming he was fine on Monday, he rushed back to Stello to attend classes. Although Fu Yunlu was very worried and wanted him to stay for two more days to observe, Liang Guanyue's reasons were sufficient and legitimate, and he stated that he was not feeling unwell at all. Fu Yunlu had no choice but to relent.
After he returned to school, he would send a message to Fu Yunlu as a routine every day. Fu Yunlu always replied very late, but Liang Guanyue didn't care what the other party replied or when the other party replied.
By the time Fu Yunlu hurried back to the main city, autumn had already arrived, and a week had passed since Liang Guanyue last saw his report on the school's screen.
Liang Guanyue received a message from Fu Yunlu while he was in class, asking him when the last class would end and that he would come to pick him up later.
Liang Guanyue left the school gate and followed the license plate to find Fu Yunlu's car and got in. Fu Yunlu was taking a nap in the back seat with her head tilted to one side. When she heard the door close, she suddenly woke up. She turned around and saw that it was Liang Guanyue, then she calmed down: "I'm early. I was waiting and I fell asleep."
Liang Guanyue asked, "How long have you been back?"
"In the morning, I went to explain the details to my father first. I think everything has been handled. I'm not responsible for anything else. At noon, I went to see my mother and had lunch."
I haven't been idle since I came back, Liang Guanyue thought.
"Didn't you say on the live news that the criminal gang was still pursuing them? Did they catch them?"
"No." Fu Yunlu smiled bitterly. "I tried my best, but there's nothing I can do. Fu Wanqian was very decisive in cutting off the trail in this matter. The clues that directly pointed to him were cut off."
Liang Guanyue heard Fu Yunlu say that this matter might be related to the eldest prince, and said puzzledly: "There is one thing I don't understand. The eldest prince clearly knew that human experimentation was clearly prohibited by the Federation, so why did he act as an umbrella and let his men go to District 06 to do this?"
Fu Yunlu touched Liang Guanyue's head and said with a smile, "What do you think?"
Liang Guanyue curled her lips: "Anyway, it's not just for money."
"Of course, profit is only one of the reasons. The most important factor is to use the black market as a venue to satisfy the curiosity of those powerful people." Fu Yunlu spread his hands. "The closer these powerful people are to the black market, the closer they are to Fu Wanqian, and then they are gradually tied to the same boat and become part of his network of relationships."
Fu Yunlu commented: "But he forgot that some transactions carry greater risks than benefits, and the human body becoming a parasite is one of them."
Liang Guanyue was silent for a moment, then asked, "What will happen to the transformed omega?"
Fu Yunlu replied, "Don't worry, he's a complete victim. The Federation will do its best to save him. If his transformation into an insect can't be reversed..." He paused, "The Federation will give him the option of euthanasia."
"Really?"
"……What?"
Liang Guanyue looked at him and asked, "Is it euthanasia, rather than being used as a precious experimental subject for research?"
Fu Yunlu stared at him speechlessly for a moment before she said, "...the research institute does have this idea at the moment."
"..." Liang Guanyue turned his head expressionlessly, the scenery outside the window flew by. He reached out and touched the glass, saying lightly, "Don't lie to me, after all, this has nothing to do with me."
"Guan Yue..."
"Shut up."
Liang Guanyue didn't know why he felt depressed. He obviously didn't care about the life or death of the omega he once knew, but he seemed to be able to see the fate of thousands of people through the ending of this omega, including himself.
He was just blessed with a little luck for one day - on the day of differentiation.
If he is not an alpha, no matter how cunning or smart he is, no matter how hard he tries, he will probably be crushed by a speck of dust dropped by fate and unable to get up.
"Guan Yue." Fu Yunlu held his hand and said gently, "If you feel sorry for this, I can stop the institute from doing this."
Save him? But I don't care about his life. Liang Guanyue lowered his eyes and said, "I just saw myself through him."
Fu Yunlu hurriedly said, "How could that be? You and he are completely different." He hugged Liang Guanyue, tilted his head to kiss his cheek, and comforted him, "Stop imagining this, okay? Baby, your future is extremely bright, and no one can affect it."
“No one can influence it?”
Fu Yunlu nodded: "I will escort you."
Liang Guanyue laughed silently at herself, "What if I disobey you?"
Fu Yunlu said, "I know what you're worried about. I love you so much, how could I do something like that?" He said seriously, "I swear, I will never affect your future."
Liang Guanyue suddenly felt that all this was very boring.
Whether it was Fu Yunlu's love or his own revenge - because at this moment he realized very clearly that even such a terrible incident as human transformation into insects could not allow Fu Yunlu to overthrow Fu Wanqian, and could he really succeed in making Fu Yunlu lose her current power?
The events of District 06 allowed Liang Guanyue to see more clearly the mountains behind these royal family members, which could not be destroyed by a single earthquake.
These high-ranking nobles do not treat other people as human beings. They are only interested in profit. The power they gain allows them to stand higher, and then they are doubly eager to climb up.
If he couldn't defeat Fu Yunlu completely, all he would face was Fu Yunlu's revenge. But was he going to be tied to Fu Yunlu like a pet for the rest of his life?
Besides, how long could his love last? Perhaps one or two years, perhaps four or five years, or even longer. Liang Guanyue didn't believe that Fu Yunlu's interest in him could last a lifetime.
When the passion subsides, will Fu Yunlu let him go, or will he consider killing him like he did to Ji Shun, who has followed him for many years, because he knows too much?
He would not be willing to be a dog on a leash in the hands of the powerful, nor would he wait like a fool for Fu Yunlu's final judgment on him after her love for him disappeared.
Liang Guanyue believed that since he was favored by Fu Yunlu, there was only one way for his future. That road was not the bright and glorious one that Fu Yunlu had described, but a gamble.
Liang Guanyue whispered: "Brother, I want to go to your house."
Fu Yunlu wanted to make Liang Guanyue happy, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll take you to my house."
Fu Yunlu's home is decorated in a very lifeless style, with all colors being black, gray, and white. The only thing that seems to bring some life to it is a gray-haired wool felt cat with green eyes placed on the shoe cabinet in the entrance.
Liang Guanyue changed into slippers, poked the wool felt cat with her finger, turned around and asked Fu Yunlu curiously: "Did you make this?"
Fu Yunlu laughed and said, "How is that possible? I asked someone to do this."
"You like cats?"
"...Does it count?" Fu Yunlu was unsure at first. After glancing at Liang Guanyue, she said, "It counts."
"Then the prototype of this cat..."
"It's a stray cat I raised when I was very young." Fu Yunlu walked over to Liang Guanyue and stroked the cat's head with her fingers, as if she could return to that time. "I actually wanted to take it home, but my mother refused and scolded me so harshly that I even cried while doing my homework that night."
When Fu Yunlu said this, he burst into laughter.
"Then I was too busy for a few days and didn't have time to feed the cat. When I went back to look for it, it was already dead," Fu Yunlu said. "I didn't have the ability to adopt it, but out of selfish sympathy, I treated it as my own. Maybe without me, it would have lived longer as a stray cat."
Liang Guanyue looked at the cat doll and said, "So out of guilt, you asked someone to make a wool felt doll in its image and keep it at home?"
"Guilt?... Rather than guilt, every time I see it when I go out or come home, it seems to tell me—" Fu Yunlu chuckled and said, "Fu Yunlu, you need to grab more power, so much that no one can stop you."
Liang Guanyue turned her head and stared at his profile with her eyes lowered: "What if I lose my rights?"
“Without my rights, I have nothing.”
Fu Yunlu felt his gaze and turned to him, gently pecking his lips. "I bear the weight of my mother's expectations and my father's gaze. This power allows me to choose what I want time and time again, rather than being helpless like I was with that stray cat. Therefore, for the past thirty years, all I've pursued is this one thing."
"What's more..." Fu Yunlu smiled with her eyes curved, "If I weren't the Fourth Prince, we might not have been able to be together from the very beginning."
"..." Liang Guanyue placed her hand on the side of Fu Yunlu's neck, her fingertips inserted into his collar, slowly stroking his glands, and chuckled softly, "Brother, what you said seems to make some sense."
Fu Yunlu's breathing quickened as he touched her. She leaned forward to kiss him. Liang Guanyue dodged for a moment and asked, "Am I your brother's compensation for not raising a cat when he was young?"
Liang Guanyue pressed his gland hard. Fu Yunlu groaned in pain and leaned against Liang Guanyue's arms, trembling slightly. He said in a hoarse voice, "...baby, be gentle."
Liang Guanyue said: "I'll think about it after you say it."
Fu Yunlu unzipped Liang Guanyue's pants: "Do it first."
"..." Liang Guanyue raised an eyebrow, "I didn't say I would do it. Brother hasn't answered my question yet."
Fu Yunlu had no choice but to put her arms around his neck. After thinking for a while, she said, "Guan Yue, you are not my pet. You always say that you have no home... I want to give you a home." He licked Liang Guan Yue's earlobe, "I want to spend my whole life with you."
Liang Guanyue had no intention of doing anything else, and was half-seduced and half-forced by Fu Yunlu to sit on the sofa in the living room. He sat on Liang Guanyue with his legs apart, kissed his forehead with his eyes curved, and said in a dry voice: "If you don't want to move, then I'll do it myself."
Seeing that Fu Yunlu was determined to do it, Liang Guanyue simply gave up resistance and snorted, "Brother, do it well. I'll supervise you."
This time, because she was not in the susceptible period and Qiang was promoted, it was too reluctant. Liang Guanyue did not mention it, and Fu Yunlu naturally did not want to ask for trouble. However, even if it had nothing to do with Qiang's promotion, Fu Yunlu still found it difficult to adapt to the size that could be fully inserted.
He took a while to act, and after a while, he didn't know what he thought of. Suddenly, he grabbed Liang Guanyue's hand on his chest, kissed the palm of his hand, and said intermittently: "Guanyue, if I took over, uh... If I took over the position of head of state, would you be willing to... pretend... secondary differentiation?"
Liang Guanyue frowned: "Pretend to undergo secondary differentiation?" After saying that, he understood what Fu Yunlu meant. He faked the illusion that he had undergone secondary differentiation and became an omega, so that he could marry him naturally.
"...Would you like to?"
Liang Guanyue laughed. If it weren't for his things being inside, he would have wanted to fight with Fu Yunlu right now: "Brother, these things are too far away. Let's talk about it later, okay?"
Fu Yunlu pursed her lips in disappointment, but immediately concealed it: "That's right... these things are too far away."
In the early morning, Liang Guanyue got up to go to the bathroom and found that Fu Yunlu was not at the bedside. She quietly opened the door. Sure enough, the light in the living room on the first floor was still on. Fu Yunlu held a cigarette between her fingers and seemed to be talking to someone, her voice even lower than usual:
"Academician Julie, I knew you were still busy with the experimental subjects in Area 06 so late..."
"Haha, you're joking. I'm not interested in that omega." Fu Yunlu exhaled smoke and said slowly, "Look, the institute suspended a project ten years ago due to research and development funding issues. I heard that you are still the leader of this project."
White smoke swirled around, and even Fu Yunlu's words were a little unclear to Liang Guanyue's ears: "...I will fully support the project's start-up funds. However, the head of state has given the right to dispose of the experimental subject to the institute. Can you help me negotiate with the institute to ensure that he can be euthanized later?"
"No, no, it's nothing. I'm the one who's bothering you..."

The author has something to say: xysm keeps his word and will update daily until Monday...
In many cases, if someone with normal emotions were to deal with them, they would indeed be moved by Fu Yunlu's various actions and words (we can analyze rationally because we have a bird's-eye view, not just an insider's perspective). However, Liang Guanyue has some emotional barriers, and this lack of emotion allows him to analyze the pros and cons and see through the essence of things more rationally and coldly... This is also why I dared to stick with this plot line even though Fu Yunlu is indeed enough to love him...
