In class, the teacher handed out the papers of the previous day.
Chi Ting paid special attention to it. Lou Yueren might look like an extremely arrogant school bully, but his grades were unexpectedly not too bad.
Under the circumstances, it wasn’t impossible to work hard in the college entrance examination.
Chi Ting thought of this and wondered whether to help with tutoring.
However, Lou Yueren might’ve lived next door to his house in the past, but Chi Ting hadn’t seen him since he moved. Chi Ting didn’t know where he lived now.
Chi Ting’s right hand might be sprained, but it wasn’t completely unusable. Even so, Chi Ting chose to write with his left hand.
The beautiful handwriting was neat and straight. It was almost impossible to tell that he had changed hands to write.
Once the bell rang, Chi Ting turned around to look for Lou Yueren. However, he only caught a glimpse of the figure that flashed out the back door of the classroom. By the time he looked again, the seat in the corner was empty.
He ran very quickly. In some ways, this fit the stereotypes of bad students.
This reminded Chi Ting of the teacher’s comment in the infirmary—he is a good kid.
He blinked slowly and couldn’t help laughing.
No matter whether he was a bad student or a good kid, this was still the Lou Yueren he knew.
Chi Ting was also a big celebrity in the school. He was a top student with an outstanding appearance. He always attracted a lot of attention along the way.
Due to this tall, thin, and handsome appearance, he had long been at the top of the evaluation list of the most handsome male student in school.
Chi Ting didn’t like the feeling of being secretly watched all the time. Seeing a few unfamiliar classmates whispering and running away with red faces, he turned into another alley very naturally after leaving the school gate.
This path was narrow and deep. There weren’t many people coming and going here in the past, which was enough for him to return home quietly.
To Chi Ting’s surprise, this time, he hadn’t walked for long when he vaguely heard some fierce movements.
Chi Ting: “……”
What happened today? Did he run into someone fighting?
It was hard to see people in the deep corner. He stood at the corner and could only see a strong figure that was half exposed, as well as the student backpack thrown on the other side.
From their appearance, the few people gathered here seemed to be hooligans from the neighborhood. They blocked the student from his school here. It was highly suspected they were trying to rob the student.
Chi Ting stood there and silently touched his still red and swollen wrist.
In fact, his condition today wasn’t suitable for action. But just now, he seemed to see someone take out a knife. There was a flash of a dazzling light.
He let out a low sigh and took off his backpack. He found a relatively clean place to put it down and walked over.
The atmosphere in the corner was tense.
The alpha, holding a dagger in his hand, had a cold expression, and his tone was flat. “Boy, it is enough that you meddled in other people’s business once. However, you did it again and again. You don’t take us seriously, do you?”
The person next to him sneered. “So, we still have to teach him a lesson, or he will think we are easy to bully.”
“Okay, it is time to see some blood.
The man said and was about to step forward with the dagger raised. However, he was unexpectedly kicked in the buttocks. The huge force made him fall forward. Fortunately, the person next to him was quick to pull him up, so he didn’t fall flat on his face.
Once he stood up firmly, he looked back angrily. “Where did this ba*tard come from? Are you looking for death?”
“Sorry, I’m not interested in death.” Chi Ting slowly retracted his long leg with a faint smile on his face, but his tone was light. “I just want to remind you kindly. I just called the police. Once they come over later, it is probably you brothers who are looking for death.”
The extremely gentle tone sounded as if the clean and sharp kick just now wasn’t his handiwork.
“Police?” These people were obviously frightened for a moment, but others quickly reacted. “Don’t be frightened by this kid! The nearest police station is more than ten minutes away from here. Fight quickly and finish it soon. Hurry up and deal with this nosy guy!”
Such words made Chi Ting frown slightly.
In fact, he wasn’t afraid of fighting, but he chose to use his foot just now to protect his wrist. It seemed that these people didn’t fall for threats, so there would inevitably be a fight.
The first person rushed forward in the blink of an eye. As the other party grabbed him, Chi Ting stretched out his hand, grabbed the man’s wrist, and pulled it forward neatly.
The other party obviously didn’t expect his skills to be so neat. He looked up. Before he could come to his senses, he met a pair of eyes that were smiling faintly. The next second, a heart-wrenching pain came from his abdomen.
Chi Ting’s knee hit the spot with great precision with just the right amount of force. This made the alpha see stars from the pain.
He fell to the ground and retched for a long time before he came to his senses. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence. “F*k, what are you still standing there for? Come on!”
The others woke up from their dreams.
Chi Ting looked at the formation that was rushing towards him in an instant and let out a low tsk. He wondered about the probability of ensuring that his wrist wouldn’t get worse.
He was in the same school as this student. He didn’t regret meddling in this matter, but the senior year exams were scheduled very closely lately. It seemed that he would need to use his left hand to answer the papers next time.
After all, with so many people on the other side, it would be hard to end the fight without getting worse.
He had just thought of this when the people rushing over had already arrived.
The cold blade was close at hand, and Chi Ting acted decisively. He quickly and accurately dealt with one person and was ready to face the team battle. However, he saw the second person pause before reaching him. This person was directly pulled back by a force and hit the wall heavily.
There was a clang, and the trash can next to them was overturned to the ground. This directly caused the already tense atmosphere to stagnate.
“Hey, shouldn’t the object of your attention be me? Why did you change targets so quickly? This seems a bit too unfocused, right?” The young man’s voice was tired and hoarse, but it was full of provocation.
What d*mn unfocused?
Even Chi Ting couldn’t help complaining when he heard it.
However, it was this familiar voice that made him realize who the person blocked in the corner was.
His vision was just blocked by the wall. Now this person came out, allowing Chi Ting to see Lou Yueren’s current appearance clearly.
For a moment, he couldn’t tell whether Lou Yueren was injured or not. He subconsciously frowned.
As if noticing his gaze, Lou Yueren looked up, and a smile suddenly appeared in his originally emotionless eyes. “Study god, you are quite skilled.”
He looked embarrassed, but he was still in the mood to tease.
Chi Ting hummed. “You can still move.”
Lou Yueren blinked. “I want to stay still, but I really can’t let you be the hero saving the beauty.”
Chi Ting wondered, “…Are you sure this is how the idiom is used?”
Lou Yueren thought for a while before laughing. “I’m a poor student. My language score really isn’t that good.”
In a few words, it could be seen that this person was indeed not in a serious condition. Chi Ting sighed with relief. “Let’s talk about it when we get back.”
Now was indeed not the time to chat. In the blink of an eye, the other people gathered around.
Lou Yueren quickly pulled Chi Ting.
In the process of approaching, Chi Ting could vaguely smell the faint scent of blood from the other person’s body. He glanced at the wound remaining on the face and retracted his gaze.
The two sides fought in the blink of an eye.
The two people were besieged by two or three alphas on average, but in the end, they didn’t suffer any disadvantages.
It wasn’t until they saw that the situation couldn’t be controlled that someone shouted. “Boss, that guy seems to be an omega!”
Such words came out and made Lou Yueren’s eyes follow.
Someone laughed. “An omega. That is good. I’ll give you a good…”
The person next to him reminded, “It is illegal to use pheromones maliciously.”
The moment these words came out, he was pushed back. “F*k you. You speak as if a gang fight isn’t illegal!”
Chi Ting vaguely realized something when he heard their conversation. The color of his eyes darkened slightly, but his expression didn’t change.
He could feel that the pheromones belonging to the alphas around him were gradually becoming stronger. All types of disgusting smells were densely intertwined as if they wanted to pierce his skin and penetrate through.
Alpha pheromones with low matching could easily cause discomfort to omegas. At the same time, it was like a stimulating hint leading in a certain direction.
It was indeed not a good thing for omegas once an alpha’s strong aggressiveness was directly exposed.
At this time, Chi Ting could already feel the dense needle-piercing feeling gradually rising. Looking at the bad expressions on the faces of the other people, he didn’t move at all.
This was just a low-level trick. He didn’t know whether these people overestimated him or underestimated him…
Chi Ting’s lips curled up. He just wanted to step forward when he felt Lou Yueren pulling him behind him.
At this moment, he could feel an overwhelming pheromone wrapping around him.
Lou Yueren’s pheromone was a light smell that didn’t match his temperament. It wasn’t known if it was because he deliberately diluted it, but Chi Ting felt like he was covered in a thin layer of moonlight.
The discomfort that originally agitated his skin dissipated in an instant, as if he was comforted by an invisible hand.
Chi Ting was stunned and looked up subconsciously. He couldn’t see Lou Yueren’s expression clearly from this angel. He could only feel a clear coldness when the other person’s outline fell into his field of view.
This made him clearly realize that this guy was angry.
Lou Yueren, who could still smile even if he was blocked in a corner by these guys, was really angry.
The tense atmosphere was raised to the extreme. Unlike Chi Ting’s feelings, the overwhelming sense of oppression in an instant made the gangsters’ expressions darkened. “You kid…”
“Don’t you understand? I just didn’t want to waste time with you,” Lou Yueren spoke slowly but there were no excessive emotions in his voice.
He turned back to Chi Ting and smiled. It was like the previous coldness was an illusion. He used a tone that only the two of them could hear, “Wait for my hint and get ready to run.”
Chi Ting met his gaze. “No revenge?”
“Didn’t you call the police?”
Chi Ting looked at him steadily without saying anything.
After a few seconds, Lou Yueren seemed to understand something and laughed out loud. “Then we have to run even more?”
Chi Ting thought for a moment. “If you are worried that I will hold you back, there is no need to worry. Their pheromones can’t affect me.”
No matter whether it was omega or alpha, there were corresponding strength levels after differentiating.
Chi Ting’s primary assessment was S. So even if he felt a bit uncomfortable, he wouldn’t be disturbed by such a guy.
Lou Yueren said, “I know, study god. It will only take you a few minutes to teach them a lesson, just like you taught me a lesson when I was a kid.”
Chi Ting: “……”
He still remembered it.
Before he could speak, he heard Lou Yueren slowly continue, “But we should let them go today. After all…”
“Hmm?”
Lou Yueren’s eyes were full of smiles. “After all, I don’t want you to have so many disgusting smells on your body.”
Such words made Chi Ting stunned for a moment. Then he felt that the pheromones around Lou Yueren became dense in an instant.
It was dense as if to completely wrap him up.
As there was a muffled groan behind him, he heard the young man’s voice clearly brush past his ears. “Right now, run.”
The moment Chi Ting took a step, he could feel Lou Yueren tightly grasping his left hand.
Just as he was about to endure the pain and use his right hand to grab his schoolbag, he saw that Lou Yueren had picked up the two school bags neatly and directly dragged him to run wildly.
Two young and flamboyant figures were seen at the end of the narrow alley.
Chi Ting wasn’t worried that the people behind them would catch up, but under Lou Yueren’s leadership, he took steps in a very cooperative manner.
Looking up and seeing the hair flying behind the man’s head, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes.
This was until they finally ran out of the alley. The surroundings were once again bustling with traffic, and it seemed like the whole world had opened up.
“Here.” Lou Yueren handed the schoolbag over. He bypassed Chi Ting’s hand and put it on his back. Looking at the place on Chi Ting’s wrist that was obviously red and swollen again, he frowned and said, “Wait for me here. I’ll see if there is a pharmacy around.”
“No, I’ll go with you.” Chi Ting noticed his gaze. “You had better treat those wounds.”
Lou Yueren paused before finally nodding. “Okay.”
The two of them found a nearby pharmacy. After coming out, they sat down on the lawn of the park not far away.
Chi Ting sprayed medicine on his wrist. He took the cotton swab in his left hand and started to apply medicine to Lou Yueren. Looking at the man’s grinning expression, he raised an eyebrow slightly. “Do you feel the pain now?”
“I have always known pain.” Lou Yueren didn’t hide it at all and didn’t forget to tease. “In this respect, I am different from someone.”
Chi Ting’s expression was calm as if he didn’t understand at all.
After the matter was dealt with, he glanced over and asked, “How did you get into trouble with those people?”
Lou Yueren replied, “If I say that I saw injustice and helped out, would you believe it?”
In fact, he just said this casually, but Chi Ting nodded without hesitation. “I believe it. You are a good kid.”
The words ‘good kid’ alone made Lou Yueren choke on the spot. A long time passed before he laughed. “In fact, in some ways, you might be more like a school bully than me.”
“Hmm?”
Lou Yueren met his gaze and tilted his head to the side slightly. “It was like this before. If you really fight, you are much more ruthless than me.”
Chi Ting thought for a moment before commenting. “That’s because you are too delicate and weak.”
“……”
Lou Yueren sighed but finally chose to accept it. “Okay, it is only in your eyes that I am a delicate alpha.”
Then he stood up and said, “Then this heroic and powerful study god, can I, a delicate alpha, take you home now?”
Chi Ting also stood up. “No, I just sprained my hand, not my foot.”
“It is rare that I don’t have to avoid you in school. Can’t I send you home?”
Chi Ting looked back at him. “You don’t have to avoid me in school either.”
Such words made Lou Yueren pause for a moment before he laughed out loud. “Only you…”
Chi Ting finally let Lou Yueren send him back.
Along the way, they passed by countless familiar streets, and it was just like it used to be in their childhood.
It wasn’t until he went upstairs and returned to the room that Chi Ting saw through the window that the figure standing downstairs turned around and left.
The setting sun stretched the originally slender shadow even longer as if it was coated with a shallow edge.
The corners of Chi Ting’s mouth moved slightly and were raised in a very shallow arc.
How could a guy who was always protected by him as a child not be weak and delicate?
