Xie Yang is the school bully at Jiangyang No. 3 High School. Arrogant and hopelessly unruly, he excels at fighting and skipping class, and he cheats so brazenly that the whole school knows about it.
Nobody can keep him in line, and nobody knows that the school bully, Xie Yang, is actually an omega.
That is, until his mother brings home a top Alpha student to keep him in check and tells him to call the guy "big brother."
Xie Yang is born rebellious, so he refuses on the spot!
He even leans in toward the back of the guy's neck, takes a sniff, and frowns. "What kind of pheromones smell this bad?"
Seeing the other guy's face turn gloomy, Xie Yang thinks he's won.
In reality, he's lost.
"Bro, do me a favor and bite me?" Xie Yang grabs Jin Ci as he comes upstairs and pulls him against his bedroom door, blocking his way.
Jin Ci reaches around to the back of Xie Yang's neck and gently strokes it a few times. In a detached voice, he says, "My pheromones stink. I don't want to get you dirty."
"Aw, I was wrong," Xie Yang says, rubbing his face against him. "Please, bro..."
1. An omega pretending to be a beta. Campus ABO, no pregnancy, and a classic case of falling hard after denial.
2. Contains author-created worldbuilding.
3. The cringe is dialed all the way up. If you can't handle it, don't read on.

Xia Yu Ci called him "big brother" three times.
The first time was when Xia Yu Ci had just been brought to his home. At a banquet, a group of spoiled young masters dragged Xia Yu Ci in front of him, pinning back his straight shoulders and forcing him to call him big brother.
He sneered. "Hmph."
The onlookers laughed with delight. In a daze, he thought he heard Xia Yu Ci laugh too, and for a moment, it inexplicably made his heart flutter.
The second time was when Xia Yu Ci came back, soaked to the skin and stumbling.
The corners of his eyes were wet. He was barely conscious, and on closer inspection, his eyes were rimmed with red.
Xia Yu Ci tugged at the hem of his clothes and asked, "Big brother, could you help me?"
The third time was on a rainy night. The vast mansion was unusually quiet that day, with only the rustle of the rain to be heard, cold and oppressive.
He came downstairs and saw a figure standing by the half-open door in the pitch-black hall.
Lonely, yet proud.
Amid the desolate patter of rain, he clearly heard Xia Yu Ci turn back and call out in a cool voice, "Good night, big brother."
Then he disappeared for good.
After starring as the young immortal lord in the big-budget fantasy drama A Young Man's Journey, Xia Yu Ci burst onto the scene as a stunning new actor with extraordinary talent. His schedule soon filled up, and his posters seemed to be everywhere, impossible to avoid.
Yet he kept a low profile. He never appeared on variety shows, rarely updated his Weibo, and aside from a post from a year ago captioned "Big brother," he had posted nothing else.
Then, for the first time, Xia Yu Ci agreed to appear on a live-action escape-room show, and his long-neglected Weibo account was updated.
The picture showed a proud, silver-shaded cat. The caption read: "Big brother."
On the day of the live-action escape-room show, fans watched as the aloof, solitary, heaven-blessed movie emperor, in the middle of solving a puzzle, seized Xia Yu Ci when no one was looking and dragged him into a dark room nearby.
The movie emperor's gaze was terrifying. He pressed against Xia Yu Ci's neck, looking as if he might bite off a chunk of flesh.
#Movie Emperor and Xia Yu Ci Are Not Getting Along# It took only a few minutes to hit the trending list.
But only Xia Yu Ci knew that the movie emperor had lingered against his neck for a long time, seeming to hesitate before gritting his teeth and letting out an angry meow.
