In the first half of the campus story, this friend was just the most despised, trashy pervert, channeling all his intelligence into peeking under the skirts of the school’s Omegas. He conspired with like-minded companions to install numerous pinhole cameras.

As for the male lead?

He definitely didn’t participate. He just “accidentally” passed by while everyone else was excitedly watching the videos and happened to catch a glimpse of an Omega with twin tails bending over to take off her stockings. That image left a deep impression on him.

This Omega didn’t even have much appeal just revealing a graceful back was enough to make many Alphas, who were initially just there for the fun, unable to forget her. It was through this farce that the male lead gained another group of followers.

Yes, although Qing Ling was the undisputed female lead, how could the male lead of a novel not have a harem?

Lost in her recollection of the novel, Ruan Yubai didn’t notice the Omega in front of her growing increasingly resolute. After scrutinizing the soft, lazy salted fish before her, the Omega finally made up her mind.

“But since you’ve figured it out, Ruan classmate, it actually works out well. The truth is, we came to you this time with a favor to ask.”

Before Ruan Yubai could even blink in confusion, the petite Omega declared with firm resolve, “We want to catch these perverted Alphas, but these devices have restrictions set on them, making it impossible to trace the source. So, we plan to set up bait to lure them in for inspection, and we’ll also have people stationed outside to keep watch.”

Ruan Yubai nodded in agreement. The real world was nothing like fiction just because the main characters might enjoy it didn’t mean the Omegas being spied on would feel the same.

But then the Omega abruptly shifted the topic: “We have a favor to ask, Ruan. Could you please be the bait.”

Helping classmates was a no-brainer, and keeping watch was certainly doable.

Huh?

At first, Ruan Yubai thought she was joking, but when she saw the hopeful look in the Omega’s eyes, she nearly let out a frog-like croak of shock: “Classmate, but I’m a Beta!”

However, the Omega shook her head dismissively and waved her hand persuasively, “Without even smelling your pheromones, just from the videos, everyone would mistake you for an Omega!”

The Omega, who had never misjudged anyone before, had her one and only Waterloo with Ruan Yubai. After returning home, she was filled with regret and self-reflection, but from another angle, she discovered a new opportunity.

No ordinary Omega would likely lure out these disgusting perverted Alphas, but someone like Ruan Yubai was a different story.

Who could resist the temptation of a sweet, adorable berry?

Ruan Yubai: “For a moment, I couldn’t tell if that was an insult or a compliment.”

But was that even the point?

A Beta entering an Omega’s restroom would be the real pervert! A perverted slacker like that would be caught by the student council, chopped up, and fed to the cats!

Ruan Yubai might be lazy, but that didn’t mean she was actually that perverted.

Before she could voice her thoughts, she felt a shadow fall over her. A group of Omegas, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, blocked the sunlight streaming through the window. The one at the front handed her a joint petition, pleading earnestly, “Every Omega we’ve contacted on campus agrees to let you, Ruan, into our restroom. We’re counting on you!”

“Yes, you’re our savior!”

Ruan Yubai: …

It was true she wanted to help, but no matter how you looked at it, this kind of spotlight should belong to the female lead, not a cannon-fodder Beta like her.

Accepting was out of the question; she could only politely decline. So, Ruan Yubai cleared her throat and said, “Although I really want to help my classmates.”

And so, after school that afternoon, Ruan Yubai found herself standing in the remote, deserted Omega restroom.

It really wasn’t her fault these Omegas were just too persuasive!

They showered her with compliments like “gorgeous,” “cutie,” and “angel baby,” making her heart flutter. The Omegas even used their natural charm, clinging to her arms and swaying back and forth, cooing and acting cute like her family’s black cat, leaving her utterly dazed by the flattery.

But that wasn’t the worst of it. The ringleader of the Omegas had somehow managed to get her hands on a double-layered cocoa pudding, a flavor that had long been discontinued at Laureus Academy!

Happily swallowing the last spoonful of the melt-in-your-mouth, soft and creamy pudding, Ruan Yubai was like a fish biting the bait, becoming the most classic victim of sugar-coated bullets.

“Bai Bai, your hair is so thick.” The most alluring and captivating feature of an Omega is, of course, the small gland at the back of the neck. But for a Beta like Ruan Yubai, who lacks such a gland, whether her neck is exposed or not doesn’t really matter. They decided to tie her hair into a ponytail, believing that the faint, elusive look would be the most enticing.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Yubai’s hair was so thick that the hair tie in the hands of the Omega helping her style it snapped.

The impeccably made-up Omega had a sudden inspiration and said with a smile, “Let me give you a different hairstyle.”

Ruan Yubai nodded indifferently. Her obedient appearance made the Omega, who was half a head shorter than her, itch to touch her, unable to resist ruffling the soft hair atop the “lazy fish’s” head again and again, thinking to themselves that marrying a Beta in the future might not be a bad idea.

As for why a usually gentle Omega would suddenly entertain such a dominant thought of marrying someone else, it might have something to do with the lazy fish Ruan in the mirror, who was sporting twin tails.

The restroom here was quite remote and not in the best condition. The mirror above the sink was already fogged up, and whether the mist in the reflection’s eyes was tears or condensation was unclear. The lively twin tails bounced lightly in the air, giving off a youthful and naive charm. As they brushed against her soft, fair cheeks, they looked even more pinchable.

“Alright,” said the Omega who had helped Ruan Yubai with her appearance, barely restraining herself from pinching those cheeks. She patted Ruan Yubai’s shoulder and smiled. “Bai Bai, all you need to do now is change into a skirt.”

The uniforms at Laureus, aside from the custom versions for the student council, didn’t differ much. The only small adjustments were made to the skirts based on gender distinctions.

To fully commit to the act, since she was pretending to be an Omega, the skirt naturally had to be altered as well.

However, Ruan Yubai was momentarily lost in thought. Staring at the bewildered girl in the mirror, her mind unexpectedly drifted to the plot of the novel.

Ruan Yubai: Twin tails, this, this doesn’t feel right.

Ruan Yubai: Wake up, buddy! I’m just an ordinary cannon-fodder female side character. Even though I really want to be a big villain, the kind of extra scenes I want definitely aren’t like this!

Unfortunately, the die was cast. Ruan Yubai was practically forced into changing her clothes like a duck being driven to the slaughter.

When she emerged, she frowned and tugged at her skirt, muttering under her breath, “Isn’t this uniform a bit too short?”

Ruan Yubai had never been considered short, and her fair legs were actually quite long. But after changing into an Omega’s uniform, the originally knee-length skirt had ridden up a little. The part of her legs below the knees was covered in pure white thigh-high socks, giving off a plump and adorable vibe. Below her slender ankles were a pair of clean patent leather shoes.

It was, in fact, a perfectly healthy and lively ordinary outfit. But for some reason, the previously chattering Omegas suddenly fell silent. The originally chilly air in the room was now filled with a mix of pheromones. Though most of the scents were sweet, the concentration was so high that it made Ruan Yubai cough lightly a few times.

As she rubbed her nose, the stagnant atmosphere was broken. They led the disoriented Beta to the prearranged cubicle door, gave her detailed instructions, and then filed out one by one.

These Omegas understood that this task was quite demanding, and only someone as soft-hearted as Ruan Yubai could be so easily persuaded. Feeling guilty, they not only stationed companions to keep watch but also finally resolved to report the matter to the school authorities.

So when the student council members arrived, they saw the leading Omega whispering something to the president, who was surrounded in the center. With a light wave of the hand, the lookouts withdrew as well.

The student council decided to go along with the plan, splitting into two groups. Aside from the president, who stayed behind, the rest hid in other locations, ready to lie in wait for their prey.

The last person to leave couldn’t resist taking another look at the serene and dignified president. The dim lighting barely outlined the graceful curves of the young woman’s figure. Though the surroundings were gloomy, Qing Ling always seemed bathed in a halo of light.

He couldn’t help but wonder, how could there be someone as gentle and kind as the president? She was practically flawless! It was nothing short of a miracle!

What he didn’t know was that the noble and beautiful young lady left behind let out a soft, derisive laugh. Her jade-white fingers idly twirled a platinum cufflink, on which a faint bite mark was almost imperceptible on its otherwise pristine surface. Her dark eyes were shadowed, and her light whisper dissolved into the wind.

“A Beta?”
