Gu Lin, the military academy's famously laziest Omega, went crazy and signed up for the same courses as the Alphas. People thought he must have some exceptional talent, but instead he slept through class, came in last on every exam, and even talked back to his instructor in front of everyone...
The only thing he had going for him was his looks, so they nicknamed him "Gu the Vase."
Lu Yu, known as the "Star of the Empire," was an SSS-class Alpha from the moment he presented, making him the object of every Omega's desire. But he ignored them all, even declaring that he would never marry an Omega.
One was the "Star of the Empire," adored by all; the other was the "Vase," scorned by everyone. The two had nothing to do with each other, yet somehow grew closer and closer. It even seemed like Lu Yu was the one throwing himself at Gu Lin...
Sure, Alphas should be the ones to make the first move, but...
That was Lu Yu, the "Star of the Empire" who made countless Omegas fall for him at first sight!
What made this "Vase" so special?
But what happened next took everyone by surprise:
Gu Lin, who had dared to talk back to his instructor in public, challenged him to a duel. Everyone thought he was in over his head, but the instructor ended up unconscious in the hospital for three whole days and nights...
The student who always came last in theory class could pilot a starship one-handed, swoop in from behind enemy lines, and single-handedly save the empire from being besieged by space pirates...
When everyone found out that Gu Lin was a man pretending to be a woman, and was actually an Alpha...
The whole military academy fell silent.
Just then, Lu Yu posted on his Starblog account:
Gu Lin and I are together. Please don't bother him. Thank you.
The moment the post went up, the entire empire fell silent...
Furious, Gu Lin grabbed his wrist communicator and stormed over to Lu Yu's mansion. There sat the culprit by the floor-to-ceiling windows, legs crossed and posture elegant, coffee in his left hand and Starblog open on his phone in his right. Whatever he was looking at made the corners of his lips curl upward.
Oh, he thought that was funny?
"What do you mean by this? Didn't you say we'd end our 'relationship' as soon as my identity was exposed?!"
"A Lin, what relationship? We're already married. The Lu family has recognized you as their daughter-in-law for ages."
Gu Lin: Why was there a giant question mark over his head? What nonsense was Lu Yu spouting now?
He was about to argue, but Lu Yu showed him a garage full of starships, so many star coins he couldn't count the zeroes, and enough property deeds to bury a person...
"A Lin, these are all my dowry. Have you forgotten what we said before?"
Gu Lin, catching on, picked up where he left off: "What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine."
In the end, Gu Lin reluctantly accepted Lu Yu's confession, but it absolutely wasn't because of the money! (Emphasis on absolutely!)
[At last, the person he'd been worrying would run away the moment he looked away was firmly by his side.]
Gu Lin once asked Lu Yu, "How much do you love me?"
Lu Yu: "A little more than yesterday, a little less than tomorrow."
Gu Lin kissed Lu Yu. "You're such a sweet talker..." He hid the tips of his ears, which had turned a little red.
A mischievous, slightly money-loving Alpha who pretends to be a female Omega, paired with a powerful, influential, outwardly cold but unconditionally indulgent partner.
