Chapter Index

    If Shi Heng knew that Shuang Yu had seen through his true nature at a glance, he would probably be very surprised. As a beast in human skin, apart from the few people who knew him well, outsiders all thought he was a refined gentleman.

    While Shuang Yu was secretly observing him, he was also secretly observing Shuang Yu. He discovered that when this person looked at him, there was only surprise and assessment, and no other emotions. There was no embarrassment from fleeing after a one-night stand, and certainly no guilt from a guilty conscience!

    Could it be that… he doesn’t even remember that I was the one he slept with?!

    Shi Heng’s smile gradually turned perverse… To outsiders, it just looked like a brilliant smile, though it inexplicably made one’s scalp tingle.

    “Do you two know each other?”

    the vice-principal suddenly asked.

    “W-We met once, b-before, at a hotel.”

    Shuang Yu hurriedly tried to distance himself with his explanation. However, he didn’t expect his explanation to make people’s imaginations run even wilder.

    No wonder Her Excellency Shi Shu had him moved to that dormitory. So that was their relationship! This noble was probably planning to play a love game with this commoner. Compared to an omega, a beta was indeed more convenient. When it was time to leave, he could just be disposed of casually. Although this Ji Shuangyu was a stutterer, his face was indeed very handsome. It was his good fortune to be noticed by a retainer of Her Excellency Shi Shu. Even if he couldn’t marry into the Royal Family in the end, he would surely receive plenty of benefits.

    Shuang Yu’s explanation also confirmed for Shi Heng that this little omega didn’t remember him at all!

    No matter, the game is getting more and more interesting, isn’t it!

    “Your Excellency Shi Shu, we’ve arranged a single room for you. As for student Shi Heng, you’ll be staying with student Ji and Viscount Wei. Is that alright?”

    The vice-principal asked humbly with a fawning smile.

    “Thank you. I don’t want to cause a commotion. From now on, just have students Wei Yichen and Ji Shuangyu show us around the school.”

    Shi Shu smiled faintly, intending to keep a low profile. Because the welcome was so grand, a crowd of students had already gathered at the school gate to watch the spectacle, all speculating about the identities of the two newcomers.

    Ji Mian was also among them. While he was curious about the two outstanding Alphas, he was also extremely jealous that Ji Shuangyu could stand beside them. Damn it, he was just a bastard with no parents. What right did he have to receive such an honor? The school officials must have had their brains squeezed by a door to let him welcome such important people. Damn it, who were these two people with such impressive backgrounds? He absolutely could not miss this opportunity; he had to attract their attention.

    Soon, Ji Mian found his chance. As soon as the school leaders dispersed, he immediately trotted towards Wei Yichen.

    “Yichen!”

    He threw himself into Wei Yichen’s arms, calling his name in a sweet, delicate voice, then timidly looked at Shi Shu and Shi Heng. Feigning a bit of shyness, he quickly hid behind him, peeking out with half his head to look at them curiously, asking in a low voice, “Who are they?”

    Wei Yichen possessively put an arm around him and introduced them.

    “This is Ji Mian, my omega. Mianmian, these are my friends, Shi Shu and Shi Heng. They will also be studying at this university from now on.”

    Their surname is Shi?

    Ji Mian was greatly shocked. He was not a fool like Ji Shuangyu. Determined to climb into high society, he had naturally studied the system of nobility thoroughly. The surname Shi belonged to the Empress’s family! Shi Shu must be Prince Shi’s daughter, the Empress’s own niece! He knew that Prince Shi had a daughter his age. But he had never heard that Prince Shi had a son. What was the background of this Shi Heng?!

    “Hello, student Ji Mian. I’m Shi Heng, a retainer of Her Excellency Shi Shu.”

    Shi Heng saw his scrutiny and straightforwardly stated his false identity.

    A retainer—wasn’t that just a servant? What a waste of that face, to have such a low status. Ji Mian felt a sense of disdain and immediately removed him from his list of potential conquests.

    “Hello, Your Excellency Shi Shu. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

    He automatically ignored Shi Heng and greeted Shi Shu with an innocent expression. His moist apricot eyes, like those of a fawn, were incredibly alluring.

    Shi Shu and Shi Heng could tell at a glance that this was a scheming bitch. They both looked at Wei Yichen with amusement, finding it laughable that his taste was so poor as to fall for such a low-quality person.

    The disdain in their eyes infuriated Wei Yichen. He hated it when people looked down on his Mianmian, who was the most important person in his life.

    “Mianmian saved my life when we were children.”

    He explained, the implication being, don’t look down on him just because he’s a commoner; he is very important to me!

    “So it’s the classic ‘repaying a life-saving debt with one’s body’ drama… It’s a pleasure to meet you, Ji Mian. Getting to know you all will surely make my campus life very colorful.”

    Shi Shu said with a meaningful smile.

    Originally, when Shi Heng had dragged her here to be his shield, she had been reluctant. As Wei Yichen’s mortal enemy, even breathing the same air as him was a humiliation to her. But now she had changed her mind. The future… would surely be very interesting!

    “Are you going to tour the school? Yichen and I can accompany you. Xiao Yu just arrived at the school not long ago and isn’t familiar with it.”

    Ji Mian proactively invited them, the implication being that this obstructive background character could get lost.

    “I’m not feeling well, so I won’t be joining you. Student Ji, could you take me to the dormitory?”

    Shi Heng smiled demurely and politely asked the silent Shuang Yu. Although he gave off a dangerous feeling, it was still better than being disgusted by Wei Yichen and Ji Mian’s public displays of affection. Shuang Yu nodded without hesitation and said to Shi Shu in an indifferent tone, “U-Until next time, Your Excellency Shi Shu.”

    Without waiting for Shi Heng, he started walking towards the dormitory area. Shi Heng smiled and nodded at the three of them, then followed.

    Wei Yichen and Shi Shu were mutually repulsed, and he had no desire to stay with her. Coincidentally, his phone rang. He held it up, gestured that he was taking a call, and walked off into the distance.

    “Xiao Yu has a bit of a difficult personality, Your Excellency Shi Shu, please don’t take it personally… After all, he hasn’t seen much of the world…”

    Ji Mian said with feigned sweetness.

    “Mm, I won’t bother with small fries. Student Ji Mian, how did you and Wei Yichen meet? I’ve known him for so long, and I only know he has a white moonlight in his heart, but he’s never willing to talk about your story.”

    Shi Shu asked with a smile, her eyes seeming to have hooks that stared straight at him. Being stared at by a high-quality Alpha made Ji Mian’s whole body tingle, his vanity immensely satisfied. He thought smugly, Oh my, why am I so popular? It’s so annoying~~

    He wasn’t Ji Shuangyu, so of course he didn’t know their childhood story. Even if he did, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to tell an Alpha who was clearly interested in him. “I-I don’t remember. I had an accident before… My childhood memories are very blurry… In fact, when we first met, I didn’t recognize Yichen at all. Fortunately, he never forgot about me.”

    Ji Mian put on a troubled and pained expression, then finished with a sweet smile, saying delicately.

    “You’re so cute. If it were me, I would never forget you either. I’m starting to understand why Wei Yichen is so devoted to you.”

    Shi Shu chuckled, her eyes turning a little deep as she began to blatantly seduce him.
