Shen Yu is a beta. In his first year at the Alliance Medical Academy, he became the target of an intense courtship by Luo En, an alpha and the eldest son of one of the Alliance's powerful families.
After Luo En pursued him relentlessly, Shen Yu finally agreed to give dating him a try.
That try lasted five years.
The cool, brilliant beauty and the rich, powerful heir: everyone thought they would go from campus sweethearts to married life, and Shen Yu thought so too.
But then Shen Yu received proof that Luo En had cheated.
All these years, Luo En had played the model boyfriend in public, but in secret he couldn't resist omega pheromones and had become a habitual cheater.
Shen Yu handled it with dignity. He didn't drag things out. He broke up with Luo En, deleted all his contact information, and refused to hear a single word of explanation.

After the breakup, Shen Yu landed a good internship as a military doctor with the Alliance Fleet.
The fleet's current chief commander was his ex-boyfriend's younger brother, Lu Lin.
But Lu Lin was away most of the time, and the two had never been close. After everything that had happened, Shen Yu assumed they wouldn't have much to do with each other.
Then Lu Lin started showing up every day with an injury for him to bandage,
bringing him delicious meals when he couldn't stomach the cafeteria food,
and helping him navigate the social situations he wasn't good at...
At first, the fleet personnel just teased them about their relationship. Then the rumors grew more and more outrageous, claiming Lu Lin was pursuing Shen Yu. Lu Lin's subordinates even started calling Shen Yu “sister-in-law”...
So Shen Yu went to Lu Lin and suggested, “You've probably heard the rumors going around lately, so I think we should keep our relationship professional.”
Lu Lin replied, “They're not rumors. I really am pursuing you. Can't you tell, Doctor Shen?”
Shen Yu: “?”

Lu Lin was an illegitimate child, ostracized and rejected by his family from a young age.
Then, at a family gathering, his older brother brought someone home.
The man was gentle, greeted Lu Lin with a lovely smile, and complimented the starship model he'd made.
But his brother said, “This is my boyfriend. You can call him Big Brother.”
Lu Lin had been secretly in love with Shen Yu for years, watching over him from afar.
Then one day, he discovered that his brother was cheating.
For the first time, Lu Lin confronted his brother head-on and beat him up, then anonymously sent the evidence to Shen Yu.
As he sent the email, the commander, who never so much as flinched on the battlefield, couldn't stop himself from trembling all over.
Five years.
At last, it was his turn.
