The Ultra-Alpha School Hunk Has Transmigrated into a Cannon Fodder Omega! - Chapter 32

Ji Cenzhou calculated the dates and realized that his heat was approaching this month. Since he had just received his wages from the boss, he went to the hospital to purchase a dose of synthetic Alpha pheromones.

The doctor asked him, “How did you spend your last heat? I noticed you did not come to collect synthetic Alpha pheromones.”

Ji Cenzhou paused for a moment before replying, “A kind Alpha temporarily marked me.”

The doctor said, “In principle, synthetic and natural Alpha pheromones have the same efficacy for your condition. However, it is possible that you might develop a certain dependency on a specific Alpha’s pheromones. The probability is low, as only one such case has been recorded previously, so you do not need to worry excessively. You should keep the synthetic pheromones with you over the next few days to prevent a sudden onset of symptoms.”

Ji Cenzhou nodded. After returning from the hospital, he lived in a state of constant anxiety, fearing that his condition would flare up at any moment. He carried the synthetic pheromones every day, yet his heat did not arrive. He had estimated that it would start before Sunday evening, but when Sunday night came, there was still no sign of it. He felt a slight headache. Once he arrived at the bar, he would not be able to carry the pheromones on his person.

Jiang Mosen was about to head out when his mother suddenly stopped him. “Wait a moment. A friend from a prominent family is coming to visit. She saw you when you were a child and specifically mentioned you over the phone. Please stay for a while.”

Families of their standing placed a high value on etiquette. If they knew a guest was coming and chose to be absent, it would be considered quite rude. Jiang Mosen hesitated before saying, “Fine, I will stay for a bit.”

His mother nodded. “If you have something urgent, you may leave after meeting them. Auntie Lin is a high school classmate I have not seen in a long time. By the way, she has an Omega son who is about your age. You should be polite to him.”

Because of his illness, Jiang Mosen had always maintained a distant and indifferent attitude toward Omegas. Omegas were sensitive by nature, and his demeanor could easily hurt their feelings. Jiang Mosen nodded. He was naturally cold and tended to appear indifferent to strangers. It was not a specific bias against Omegas; he treated everyone that way, but Omegas happened to be more sensitive to it.

Before long, the guests arrived. Auntie Lin was slender with smooth, wrinkle-free skin. It was impossible to tell her age. She said with delight, “You must be Mosen! You have grown into such a handsome young man. Meimei, your genetic memory is truly excellent; your son is both handsome and outstanding.”

Jiang Mosen’s mother returned the compliment. “Oh, do not say that. I envy you for having such a cute and thoughtful Omega son.” The two women exchanged pleasantries and moved aside to chat about their university days.

“Hello, my name is Lin Tianxing. Although we already know each other’s names, I think we should introduce ourselves formally,” said the young Omega.

Jiang Mosen turned around to look at him. The Omega had delicate features and a lively smile. Jiang Mosen nodded. “Hello, I am Jiang Mosen.”

“I heard you attend No. 1 High School and are ranked first in your grade. That is truly impressive,” Lin Tianxing said. His tone felt sincere and slightly playful, making it difficult not to feel a sense of goodwill toward him.

Jiang Mosen took one look and knew the boy had received an excellent education. Every movement was the result of long-term cultivation. They were the same kind of people: delicate flowers raised in a greenhouse, never having experienced the storms of nature, growing up under careful protection.

“When I came in, I noticed your backyard is beautiful. Could you take me to see it?” Lin Tianxing invited him naturally.

Just as he spoke, the main door was pushed open. Jiang Mosen’s father entered and paused upon seeing Lin Tianxing. “Who is this?”

Jiang Mosen replied, “It is the son of Auntie Lin, my mother’s university friend.”

“You must be Tianxing! You have grown up so much without me noticing. I even held you when you were a baby. Time truly waits for no one. In the blink of an eye, you are already an adult,” Jiang’s father said. “I heard Tianxing wants to see the backyard. Mosen, take him there and look after him well.”

Jiang Mosen frowned slightly and paused before saying, “Alright.”

The two went to the backyard. Lin Tianxing looked up at the night sky and sighed, “The moonlight is so beautiful tonight. I can see so many stars!”

“Yes,” Jiang Mosen replied. He checked his watch; time was running out.

Lin Tianxing could sense that Jiang Mosen was distracted. “You probably do not remember, but we met when we were children.”

Out of politeness, Jiang Mosen asked, “Is that so?”

“Yes. It was when we were five years old. I grew slowly back then, so at five, I looked like I was only three. I only came up to your shoulder. You walked ahead, and I followed behind you like a little shadow. When you noticed me, you stopped and held my hand. When you realized we were the same age, you said with surprise, ‘Why are you so small? You look like a little glutinous rice ball.'”

“Is that so? You have a good memory. I no longer remember what happened when I was five,” Jiang Mosen said.

Lin Tianxing lowered his head shyly. “I do not remember other things from my childhood either. I do not know why I remember this so clearly. Perhaps it is fate.” He noticed Jiang Mosen checking the time again. “Do you have somewhere to be?”

He waited for Jiang Mosen to put away his phone and apologize. He understood Alphas too well; he could accurately predict their next move.

“I apologize. I do indeed have an urgent matter, so I cannot accompany you any longer,” Jiang Mosen said.

Lin Tianxing was stunned. Jiang Mosen strode toward the door, completely ignoring Lin Tianxing’s attempts to make him stay. Lin Tianxing watched his back, feeling quite frustrated. In his past interactions with Alphas, he was always the one being coaxed and pampered. No one had ever been as cold as Jiang Mosen. He stomped his foot in anger but quickly felt a sense of relief.

Jiang Mosen was too outstanding. Although he was cold, every movement held a strong attraction. From the moment he entered, Lin Tianxing had noticed him. Jiang Mosen wore black casual clothes; he was tall and possessed a cool aura. Despite his distant attitude, his mannerisms were very attractive. He was handsome and combined a youthful energy with a mature charm. This was the kind of Alpha who was worthy of someone like Lin Tianxing.

Throughout his life, too many Alphas had tried to please him, and their flattering faces disgusted him. It had been a long time since he met an Alpha with such personality and taste. Though Jiang Mosen was cold, it only made him more of a challenge. He believed that before long, Jiang Mosen would fall for him.

“Jiangdong No. 1 High School, Eleventh Grade, Class Ten,” Lin Tianxing smiled. The first step to winning Jiang Mosen’s heart was to get closer to him.

After finishing his dance, Ji Cenzhou did not see the familiar figure at the bar. For some reason, he felt a slight sense of loss. He sat at the bar and, acting on a strange whim, asked the bartender for a glass of mint liquor.

The bartender asked with a smile, “Why did that person not come today?”

Ji Cenzhou knew exactly who he was talking about. He said in a casual tone, “He probably has something to do.”

The bartender teased him, “You look a bit disappointed. Is it because he is not here?”

“What does it matter to me whether he comes or not?” Ji Cenzhou replied. “I am just a bit tired today.”

“If you say things you do not mean, happiness will slip away,” the bartender said as he served the mint liquor. “Every time he comes, his eyes are fixed on you. He never looks at anyone else. Moreover, he is very good at protecting you. Such an outstanding Alpha who provides such a sense of security is rare. You should hold onto him.”

“Whether he is outstanding or not has nothing to do with me. We are not a couple. I do not like him, and he does not like me either.”

“Whether he likes you is one thing, but if you do not like him, why did you order the drink he always has?”

Ji Cenzhou suddenly realized what he had done. He looked at the mint liquor and was momentarily speechless. The bartender did not press him, only saying, “The alcohol content is not high, but you should not drink too much. After all, the person who always protects you is not here today.”

Suddenly, the bartender’s expression changed. He lowered his voice near Ji Cenzhou’s ear. “Three men are coming toward you.”

Just as Ji Cenzhou moved, a hand blocked his path. “Do not leave yet. You look so bored all by yourself. Why not have a drink with us?”

Ji Cenzhou frowned at the three men. “Get away from me.”

“You have quite the personality. Just my type.”

Ji Cenzhou looked at their oily smiles and malicious eyes, feeling a wave of nausea. He wanted to kick them away, but since he was currently at work, he tried to keep his voice calm. “I apologize, but I do not like you.”

“Oh, playing hard to get? It seems you are high-end goods. I am very interested in you. How about this? Name a price. It does not matter if it is high, since I like you so much.”

“Get the hell away from me,” Ji Cenzhou said, his undisguised disgust finally making the man realize he was serious.

The man became dissatisfied. “You are dancing in a place like this and yet you act so pure? You really think you are something special? Let me be clear: I am a customer right now, and you have no right to tell me to get lost. I was just playing along, and you act all high and mighty. Are you relying on someone to protect you? I have been watching you for several nights. Why did that person who always guards you not come tonight? Is he bored of you?”

“I do not mind playing with someone else’s leftovers, as long as the taste is good,” the man grinned, reaching out to tilt Ji Cenzhou’s chin.

Ji Cenzhou dodged and grabbed the man’s finger, bending it backward with force.

“Ow! Pain, pain, pain!” the man cried out. His companions moved to surround Ji Cenzhou. Ji Cenzhou curled his lips and increased the pressure. “If you dare take another step, I cannot guarantee what will happen to this finger.”

Seeing the man’s agony, the two companions hesitated and stepped back.

“Wash your mouth before you leave the house next time. It really stinks,” Ji Cenzhou said. With a clever use of force, he pinned the man onto the bar, twisting his arm behind his back. “I do not need anyone to guard me. I can protect myself just fine. You should be lucky we are in the shop. If we were outside, you would lose this arm!”

Ji Cenzhou applied more force until tears nearly fell from the man’s eyes. Thinking this lesson would be enough for him to remember, Ji Cenzhou snorted and headed to the backstage.

The companions helped the man up. The man glared at Ji Cenzhou’s back with hatred. “What is an Omega acting so arrogant for? He is just a piece of goods that will spread his legs the moment he smells pheromones. He had better not leave the bar today. If he steps outside, do not blame me for being ruthless!”
