Before the monthly exam, Zhao Yexi had another talk with Wang Ruhui. Just like last time, Wang Ruhui sat at the other end of his desk, head bowed, eyes hidden behind thick glasses, making it difficult to see her face.
Zhao Yexi tried to make her relax and asked, "Do you like milk tea?"
Wang Ruhui was stunned for a moment and didn't say whether she liked it or not.
"Teacher, will you have milk tea?"
After a while, Wang Ruhui shook her head.
Zhao Yesi was a little worried. He had no problem talking to girls normally, but Wang Ruhui was so nervous that he started to get nervous too.
He was wrong. He is not a qualified principal.
Wait, he wasn't really the dean of studies.
Zhao Yesi put aside his messy thoughts and said, "The exam is coming soon, your condition..."
"I'm in great shape," Wang Ruhui said quickly. "I'm sure I'll surpass Jiang Moyu this time."
"That's not what I meant. Compared to your grades, I care more about your health." Zhao Yesi paused. "Student Wang, I'm an omega just like you. If you have any questions about your second gender, you can ask me."
Wang Ruhui clenched her fingers tightly together. Her face looked grim, and a thin layer of sweat formed on her forehead.
"Are you... having a stomachache?" Zhao Yexi felt this wasn't going to work. Their research team couldn't be all men anymore; they needed to have female colleagues. Otherwise, it would be too awkward for a man like him to discuss physiological issues with a woman.
"I'm fine, I'm fine." Wang Ruhui stood up and said, "Teacher Zhao, I haven't finished my homework yet, so I'll leave first." After saying that, she hurried away without waiting for Zhao Yesi to say anything else.
Zhao Yesi wanted to stop her, but suddenly he smelled the scent of red dates, which should be the scent of Wang Ruhui's pheromones.
It’s obvious that Wang Ruhui is a good girl who uses barrier agents regularly. The fact that an omega like Zhao Yesi can capture her pheromones is enough to show that the concentration of pheromones in her body is higher than usual.
Could it be that Wang Ruhui’s susceptible period is coming?
Although a specific drug to suppress omega estrus hasn't yet been developed in a lab, traditional methods of lowering omega hormone levels through infusions are already well established. Omegas can successfully navigate their susceptible period in small local hospitals and qualified clinics.
This point is mentioned in Lu Huangzhi's "College ABO Response Draft": Doctors in every school hospital must participate in unified training to ensure that they can provide effective treatment for omegas in the susceptible period.
If Wang Ruhui's susceptible period is truly approaching, she must be rushed to the school hospital as soon as possible. Otherwise, her pheromones will explode, and the entire classroom will smell like red dates. The alphas in her class, even those on her floor, might lose control.
Zhao Yesi quickly chased after her. Within moments, Wang Ruhui had vanished. Wang Ruhui didn't have a cell phone, so Zhao Yesi had to search everywhere. He couldn't find her in the library, classrooms, or cafeteria. He even called the dorm manager, but Wang Ruhui hadn't returned.
Tancheng No. 1 Middle School wasn't too big, but it wasn't too small either. Zhao Yesi mobilized the teachers who didn't have classes to look for her. Half an hour later, they found her in the gym equipment room.
Zhao Yesi asked others not to approach the equipment room, and he walked in with the female beta doctor from the school hospital.
Entering the equipment room, he felt like he'd stepped into a red date factory; the overwhelming aroma of red dates assaulted him. Wang Ruhui huddled in a corner, her face an unnatural red. She didn't react to the entrance, seemingly delirious from the various symptoms of her susceptible period.
The female doctor said anxiously, "There's no need to test for pheromone concentrations. She must be in her susceptible period. She needs an IV immediately."
Zhao Yesi said, "I'll carry her on my back."
The female doctor helped Wang Ruhui up. Wang Ruhui opened her eyes and saw the white coat on her body. She suddenly screamed and the female doctor was pushed to the ground.
Zhao Yesi grabbed Wang Ruhui's shoulders and said, "Student Wang, calm down. It's me, Teacher Zhao."
"Teacher Zhao..." Wang Ruhui's eyes suddenly turned red when she saw Zhao Yesi's face. "I don't want to go to the hospital. Please, Teacher Zhao, don't send me to the hospital." She grabbed Zhao Yesi's arm and begged, "I have an exam tomorrow, and I will definitely get first place this time..."
Zhao Yesi comforted her: "It's just a monthly exam. Your health is more important."
"What if I'm also susceptible during the Gaokao? Will I be unable to take the exam?" Wang Ruhui cried. "Being a girl is already troublesome enough, why am I also an omega..."
"I promise you, Mr. Wang," Zhao Yesi said seriously, "before your college entrance exam, we will be able to successfully research a special drug that can suppress the omega's susceptible period."
Zhao Yesi and the female doctor took turns persuading Wang Ruhui, and finally she calmed down a bit. Zhao Yesi sent Wang Ruhui to the school hospital, where the doctor put her on an IV drip, and her pheromones gradually stabilized.
At this time, Wang Ruhui still didn't want to give up, and said cautiously: "Doctor, I feel much better, can I..."
"No," the doctor said without hesitation, "Your susceptible period will last at least two days. You must stay in the school hospital during these two days."
Wang Ruhui said nothing more. She watched the dripping liquid drop by drop, her expression blank and numb.
Zhao Yesi asked: "What's your parents' phone number? I'll call them."
Wang Ruhui shook her head and said softly, "Teacher, I'm tired. I want to sleep."
Zhao Yesi had no choice but to go out.
In addition to this female doctor, there was also a male doctor in the school hospital. Zhao Yesi passed by the male doctor's office and saw two male students inside. One was Wang Wenle and the other was Cheng Huaixing.
Zhao Yesi knocked on the door and asked, "What are you two doing here—are you sick?"
Hearing Zhao Yesi's voice, Cheng Huaixing turned around and looked towards the door. Zhao Yesi was puzzled by his resentful look, "Your rhinitis is acting up again?"
Cheng Huaixing coughed twice in anger, "I've never seen such an irresponsible dean like you!"
Wang Wenle said, "He was exposed to the cold wind on the rooftop for an hour, and it turned out like this the next day."
Zhao Yesi was stunned. It turned out there were really idiots who were out in the cold. "Can you still take the exam tomorrow?"
Cheng Huaixing said unhappily, "I don't know."
"Try your best to take the exam," Zhao Yesi said. "Some people can't even take it if they want to. Learn to cherish it, young man."
Wang Ruhui's situation was initially known only to a few teachers, but after students saw Zhao Yexi taking her to the school hospital, word quickly spread. Some underachieving students expressed envy for omegas, saying they were at their most vulnerable stage to avoid exams and how cool it was. Zhao Yexi, upon hearing this, decided she was hopeless and could be buried.
When Zhao Yexi got home that night, he sat on the sofa, holding a little star-shaped pillow in his arms, and talked to Lu Huangzhi about Wang Ruhui. He sighed, "She's right. Female omegas are the most miserable. At least male omegas don't have their periods."
Lu Huangzhi asked, "Are you sure?"
Zhao Yesi uttered a "Fuck!" and threw the pillow at Lu Huangzhi, "Lu Huangzhi, can you please speak some earthly language?"
Lu Huangzhi turned his head and accurately dodged Zhao Yesi's skill, and the pillow fell beside him. "I was wrong."
Lu Huangzhi admitted his mistake quickly, but Zhao Yesi felt that he would definitely dare to do it again next time.
"What about you?" Lu Huangzhi asked.
"What's wrong with me?"
"Your susceptible period is almost here," Lu Huangzhi said, "let's take some leave together then."
Zhao Yexi seemed to be thinking about something, and said, "That's right, the temporary mark of the alpha can alleviate the symptoms of the omega's susceptible period. How about Lu Huangzhi, next time this happens, you can give that omega a temporary mark?"
Lu Huangzhi is experienced and can suppress the alpha's instinct towards the omega, making him a perfect tool.
Lu Huangzhi's expression instantly turned cold, "What did you say?"
Zhao Yesi hadn't expected his casual remark to cause such a big reaction from Lu Huangzhi. "I said, give that omega..." He observed Lu Huangzhi's expression, unsure whether he should continue. "A temporary mark?"
Lu Huangzhi was silent for a moment, then said, "Zhao Yesi, do you know the meaning of the mark?"
Zhao Yesi hadn't heard Lu Huangzhi call him by his name in ages, and he could sense Lu Huangzhi's displeasure. "The purpose of marking is to help omegas get through their susceptible period... right?"
Lu Huangzhi looked at him and said nothing.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhao Yesi frowned. "Did I say something wrong?"
Lu Huangzhi picked up the pillow and put it back in Zhao Yesi's arms, "You're right, it's time for the meeting."
The topic of temporary tagging seemed to have passed. After the meeting, Lu Huangzhi went back to his room to sleep. No matter how slow Zhao Yesi was, he knew that Lu Huangzhi was still unhappy.
Zhao Yesi felt like something was blocking his chest, and he couldn't fall asleep in bed, so he got up and started playing games. He saw Tao Qiaosheng playing games too, and after he finished a round, he sent a WeChat message: [Want to chat?]
【Xiao Qiang must work hard to become Qiao: points. 】
[Is he a tough guy?]
Xiaoqiang is trying to be more like Qiao: Speaking in that tone late at night, you're probably here to ask about relationship issues. But you don't seem to have a girlfriend.
He's a tough guy (smiles)
Xiao Qiang is trying to become Qiao: So what's going on? It's keeping us awake. (Eating melon special emoji.jpg)
Zhao Yexi briefly recounted his conversation with Lu Huangzhi tonight: [Is he angry because I treat him as a tool?]
Xiaoqiang is trying hard to become Qiao: If you ask him to tag other omegas, he'll be mad (rolling eyes)
[It's a tough guy: But it's just a temporary mark. ]
Xiao Qiang is trying to become Qiao: Then put yourself in his shoes. Would you like another alpha to bite you and then inject pheromones into your body?
Zhao Yexi pondered the question seriously. Rationally, as long as he could get through the susceptible period, it didn't matter who marked him. But then he imagined the scene again—he was being held in the arms of an alpha with the same hairstyle as Di Zhonghai, biting his neck... Perhaps he should go to the hospital for an IV?
[It's a tough guy: I think I understand a little bit. ]
[Xiao Qiang must work hard to become Qiao: And Schoolboy Lu has already temporarily marked you twice...]
[He's a tough guy: Three times.]
Xiaoqiang needs to work hard to become Qiao: his alpha instincts make him subconsciously consider you his mate. If you really want to push him to another omega, don't say it out loud; it's too hurtful.
[He's a tough guy: ...]
[He's a tough guy: (Sun Wukong: I'm so annoyed.jpg)]
Zhao Yexi was completely awake. He went to the kitchen to drink some water and saw a figure on the balcony. His first reaction was that it was a thief, but he thought that a thief would not have such a good figure. He took a closer look and found that it was Lu Huangzhi.
Lu Huangzhi has also become an idiot?
Zhao Yesi put on his coat and knocked on the glass door of the balcony.
Lu Huangzhi turned around and glanced at him. The lights were off on the balcony, and Lu Huangzhi's face was handsome and cold. Zhao Yesi was not used to this kind of junior.
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that from the time they met until now, Lu Huangzhi had never shown a cold side in front of him.
This is the first time.
Zhao Yesi held up his phone in front of Lu Huangzhi, the screen displaying the outdoor temperature. "No one would dare to stand on the balcony in the wind in the temperature of minus ten degrees Celsius."
"I can't sleep." Lu Huangzhi held a cigarette in his mouth and lowered his head to light it with a lighter.
The wind was a bit strong at night. Lu Huangzhi tried several times, but the flames were blown away by the wind.
Zhao Yesi shifted his position and opened his coat, just enough to block the wind. He urged, "Hurry up."
With a click, the blue flame lit up in the winter night, so beautiful that it made people's heart beat faster.
Lu Huangzhi exhaled a puff of smoke, and the depression in his heart suddenly dissipated.
No matter how annoying it is, the primary school principal is still so cute.
Zhao Yesi blew on his hands twice, trying to decide his words. "Lu Huangzhi, you still..."
"I'm not angry anymore," Lu Huangzhi said, "I've been coaxed into it by you."
Zhao Yesi was confused and asked, "Did I coax you?"
Lu Huangzhi flicked the ash from his fingertips and chuckled, "Yes."
