A foul-mouthed Tianlong person who loves spending money on his wife, the world's least wife-doting alpha gong x a fake universally hated, truly universally adored, short-tempered, straight beta shou (Li Baiyan x Song Yu)
Song Yu had always thought he was unlucky. He was an ordinary beta, but not only had he been assigned to a dorm with a bunch of obnoxious Tianlong person alphas at school, they were always picking on him, too.
Song Yu hated the one called Li Baiyan the most. He was rich, sure, but also brilliant, ranking first in their major. The first thing he did was pinch his nose and ask Song Yu why he was letting his pheromones run wild. They smelled sickeningly sweet. Then he said Song Yu's wolf-tail haircut looked weird, and that his skinny legs looked even weirder in shorts.
Song Yu wanted to roll his eyes at him. He was a beta, for crying out loud. What pheromones? Li Baiyan was certain Song Yu had sprayed half a bottle of perfume on himself.
All his roommates were rich young masters from powerful families, yet he was always the one whose things got stolen.
He'd waited in a long line to get lunch at the cafeteria, then someone stole it while he was halfway through eating and had gone to wash his hands. After showering, he remembered he hadn't put away his old clothes. When he went back to get them, his underwear had been taken, too. His notebooks and pens for class went missing a few at a time, nearly every day.
Song Yu was fed up, but he cared even more about his reputation. All he could do was pray in his heart for the god of fate to show him some favor and let his rich roommates be the next ones robbed.
Song Yu wasn't clever, and he wasn't popular, either. A few girls had shown some interest in him, but his roommates managed to ruin every chance.
Thankfully, Song Yu graduated. Just before he left, his roommates stopped him, their eyes fierce. "Why are you going to another city?"
Song Yu: "Are you crazy? Obviously, I'm getting away from a bunch of annoying roommates like you!"
Unfortunately, Song Yu fell for a scammer. By a fluke, he ended up in the entertainment industry and was forced to become an untalented, obscure idol. His face was the only thing he had going for him, but he did have one rich superfan, a hater fan who threw money at him while complaining that Song Yu never made an effort.
Song Yu still wanted to make big money. First, to prove himself, and second, to save up for a wife. He might be a beta, but if he worked hard, he could still marry an omega wife.
By chance, Song Yu signed a contract to become a fanservice partner for another new boy band. All the members were alphas. They didn't dare do fanservice with omegas and hated alphas of the same gender, so Song Yu, a beta, was the perfect choice.
Song Yu never imagined that the boy band would be made up entirely of his former roommates, especially Li Baiyan, the one he hated most, who was the center.
Song Yu chose to do fanservice with Roommate C, who had treated him fairly well back then. They got matching profile pictures, wore couple outfits, took promotional couple photos, went on variety shows together...
Li Baiyan said sarcastically, "You still have terrible taste in people."
Song Yu cared about his reputation, so he didn't stoop to Li Baiyan's level.
His hater fan started throwing money around: "So gross... When are you breaking up? How can you do fanservice with someone with a shoehorn face? I'd ride him off like a bicycle seat myself."
Roommate C suddenly confessed to Song Yu. Song Yu: "???"
Roommate C then said, "Do me a favor. My family keeps nagging me to get married. I'll pay you thirty million to pretend to date me."
Li Baiyan: "If you're going to make a fake relationship real, at least pick someone decent! Pheromones that smell like bitter melon, is that all you've got?"
At the same time, Song Yu's hater fan was throwing money around like crazy: "When are you breaking up with that stinky alpha? Please, teach me how to unpair from that bitter melon... The chef made bitter melon soup tonight, and it's like xxx's ugly face is assaulting my eyes. I'm going to throw up, throw up, throw up."
Later, Song Yu changed his matching big-eyed profile picture with Roommate C.
Li Baiyan messaged him at once: "Did you break up? Really break up? Now that you have, I can be your boyfriend, right?"
Song Yu: "??? Are you crazy too?"
Song Yu: "Get lost. I just 'broke up' with him, and now I'm getting with you? What would that make me? What about my reputation?"
Li Baiyan: "It's fine. Just say I'm the third party, and that I chased after you even though you weren't interested [smile]"
Song Yu: "...Then my reputation will be completely ruined."
Li Baiyan: "Too late. I already posted it."
Song Yu: "Which account did you post from?"
The whole internet exploded: "Breaking news!!! The rich hater fan of an obscure idol is actually Li Baiyan!! This time he's really throwing himself at him!"
"Big brother, didn't you always look down on obscure idols who date, saying they had no ambition and no future? Why did you change your tune when it was your turn to sleep with a fan?"
