You Might as Well Become a Monk [Female Alpha, Male Omega]

[It's heartbreaking. After all this time, I finally worked up the courage to open this story. I couldn't stomach the female supporting character being sexually assaulted, so I changed her into a male supporting character. I don't even know how I managed to write such sickening misogynistic abuse back then. All I can do is treat that lapse in judgment as a warning to myself.] Everyone in high society knew that the Jiang family had an unwritten rule: [Anyone competing to become the Jiang family heir must not get close to the opposite sex before coming of age.] Over the years, plenty of Jiang family members had broken the rule, but Jiang Yuanqing was the exception. She never crossed that line, not even once, until she turned seventeen. People all said that no matter how tempting Jiang Yuanqing was, even Qi Xi wouldn't be able to win her over. When Qi Xi heard all the things people said about Jiang Yuanqing, he merely chuckled. “She's just a child.” He made a grand entrance at the matchmaking banquet, an open secret among those in attendance, and Jiang Yuanqing picked him out at first sight. After that, all it would take was a beckoning finger, and Jiang Yuanqing would fall hopelessly in love with him. But... Whether he played hard to get or seduced her outright, Qi Xi, who was used to being pursued, couldn't get Jiang Yuanqing to fall for him, no matter how many times he tried. Even when Jiang Yuanqing accidentally ingested an aphrodisiac, she restrained herself completely, choosing to suffer in silence rather than lay a finger on Qi Xi. Instead, it was Qi Xi who was nearly driven mad by the sight of her holding herself back. After being thwarted again and again, Qi Xi lost his temper. From then on, he was determined to shatter Jiang Yuanqing's serene, passionless facade by any means necessary. On the eve of Jiang Yuanqing's coming of age, Qi Xi had already lost completely. Unwilling to give up, he tried again, but of course, he failed. “Just wait a little longer. It's almost time.” Jiang Yuanqing smiled, gentle and harmless, still as calm as ever. Qi Xi rested in her arms. His wariness gradually eased despite his frustration. But the consequence of letting his guard down was that he couldn't get away from her for the entire night she came of age. -You once asked why I would never break my vows for you. -All I could say was: -Only by restraining myself can I shoulder my responsibilities and keep you safe. [Warnings] 1. A shameless old man hitting on an underage protagonist. 2. Nothing happens before the protagonist comes of age, but this premise is still outrageously messed up. The author's moral standards really are low. Theme: Obey the law.
