As an omega born into a rigid, feudal family, Jiang He’s life was dull and stifling, with its end in sight from the very beginning.
Every word and action of his had been strictly regulated since birth:
He mustn’t speak loudly, only softly; he must stand straight, never slouch; he must be dignified and generous, never jealous or angry; he must be pure, elegant, noble, lovely, beautiful, and well-behaved; he must listen to alphas and submit completely to their authority, never defying them. Swearing, dating young, talking to alphas or betas, and staying out all night were catastrophic offenses, strictly forbidden...
Jiang He was trapped in a maze of rules and doctrines, stifled until he could barely breathe.
After starting university, he finally got the chance to escape his family for a little while, and his soul could breathe again.
His university dorm was a double, and his roommate was a tall, taciturn beta.
They kept out of each other’s way and got along well enough.
Then one day, Jiang He received a text from an unknown number: [Wifey, you’re so cute. I miss you so much.]
The young master of a prestigious family, kept immaculate and sheltered, trembled in fear at the disturbing message.
His tear-streaked face was more intoxicating than any aphrodisiac. So, amid fear and tears, he was invaded step by step, with only his beta roommate to rely on.
He was bullied so pitifully.
Little did he know that the roommate he relied on was the one behind it all.
But in truth, Jiang He had arranged everything himself:
He had known all along who the pervert sending those texts was.
It was the poor student he had carefully selected and anonymously sponsored: a wretched, pitiful stray dog, his beta roommate, and the only beta he had ever interacted with in high school, Lu Yu.
The proud, refined young master had ulterior motives in sponsoring and approaching him. Attending the same university was deliberate, sharing a dorm was his doing, and every move he made had an ulterior purpose: to tempt Lu Yu into making a move on him.
Lu Yu was the obedient dog he had carefully chosen. All of this was part of his elaborate scheme to get Lu Yu to play along with their pervert-and-poor-little-thing game, a way for him to seek thrills and indulge in rebellion.
The plan went just as he had expected, and he experienced a pleasure unlike anything he had known before.
But one day, his plan started to go off the rails.

2. The gong seems proactive at first, but is actually passive, with his every move under the shou’s control. The shou seems proactive, but is actually passive, because the gong has already seen through his tricks. They struggle over who gets to take the lead.
