The Pheromone Allergy Paradox [Esports]

Reposting an old story. It's an early, awkward work, the kind that makes your toes curl.

[Coming soon in my collection: Anomaly in Pheromone Compatibility]

Gentle only for you.

Cool, slightly deranged genius esports player (gong) x shy, sensitive cutie with a tendency to cry uncontrollably (shou)

[An old story from my chuunibyou phase. No need to overanalyze it. Feel free to roast it.]

The arena was full of noisy spectators as the host excitedly announced VR's victory!

But the crowd wasn't having it. "A team that got here by relying on outsiders has the nerve to call this a win?"

The VR team members looked at one another, not daring to speak.

Just then, someone grabbed the microphone. Still carrying the ferocity of his youth, he spoke with disdain: "From today on, I'm officially joining VR."

Lan Ying was a high school student whose parents disliked him. He was shy and sensitive, and allergic to his own pheromones. Fang Boyan disliked him from the very first day they met.

Fang Boyan was a genius esports player adored by countless fans. And Lan Ying? A low-quality omega allergic to his own pheromones, with a tendency to burst into tears!

Fang Boyan was deeply displeased with the boyfriend his mother had found for him, and could even be said to hate him. Until one night, when Fang Boyan went into heat, and there was an unmarked omega in the room next door...

The next day, Fang Boyan, the heartthrob of countless girls, naturally took responsibility. "I'll take responsibility for what happened last night. For now, all you need to do is get some rest."

But the disobedient little thing just kept causing him trouble!

Lan Ying: "Hey, can you come to the parent-teacher meeting...?"

Fang Boyan had to put everything else aside and go.

But the meeting never happened. Instead, he found a little dumpling who'd taken a tumble.

"I thought you hit the ground so hard you knocked your sense cells loose," he said irritably.

Lan Ying puffed up angrily. "Aren't you supposed to be aloof? Why are you so talkative now...?"

After that, the two thoughts that occupied Fang Boyan most were: What do I do if my wife is too silly? What do I do if my wife is too cute?

After a victory in one match, the host excitedly asked, "In the final deciding game, why did you choose to play support, and why did you pick Yao?"

Fang Boyan took the microphone and raised an eyebrow, then met Lan Ying's eyes in the audience.

He said, "Because whenever my boyfriend acts cute, he loves hanging off me."

If love doesn't happen at first sight, then it lasts a lifetime.

Waiting for love in the depths of despair.

Gong's pheromones: sour plum

Shou's pheromones: matcha (later undergoes a second differentiation)

[Reader's Guide]

1. The shou has a tendency to cry uncontrollably and gets scared easily (only around people he knows).

2. The shou isn't on the esports team, so this is only partly an esports story.

3. A sweet story with a few mildly coercive scenes. No groveling arc, just lots of doting.

4. The gong and shou aren't related. The shou calls the gong "big brother" because of their age difference.

5. Written during my chuunibyou phase. Please don't roast my writing.

A reminder: the shou cries easily because of his condition, and this is only partly about esports. I got into KPL late and don't know the competition format very well, so about half the matches and other details are made up. If that's not for you, please find another story. Thanks for understanding.
