The Lovesick Beauty Decides to Die with Her Scumbag Lover

This is a sweet little love-hate story, mostly about the shou chasing the gong and trying to kill him~

Tan Xu was Jiang Shirong's assistant for five years, and his lover for five years, too.

They weren't exactly a match made in heaven, but they got along remarkably well, in every sense and in every place.

One day, Tan Xu learned that Jiang Shirong had commissioned a ring worth a fortune. Jiang had been with no one but him these past few years.

It was hard for Tan Xu not to read into it, hard not to get his hopes up.

He thought that perhaps, at certain moments, Mr. Jiang had felt something for him, too.

So Tan Xu waited, full of hope, only to see Jiang Shirong slip the ring onto the finger of his first love, who had just returned from abroad.

At the grand banquet, Tan Xu had carefully chosen the flowers and personally arranged the music.

He thought Mr. Jiang was being rather cruel to him. If he'd known, he could at least have stayed away, instead of being the subject of everyone's furtive stares.

The guests smiled as they congratulated Jiang Shirong on finding his beloved, while taking sly, gloating jabs at Tan Xu.

"Who does Tan Xu think he is? Just the top courtesan from that brothel the Tan family runs, unfit to be seen in public. Did he really think Mr. Jiang's favor would make him rise to the top? Jiang was only playing with him."

Tan Xu understood their looks. He didn't mind Jiang Shirong playing with him, but he wanted Jiang Shirong to play with him alone.

At a time like this, the usually elegant and composed Assistant Tan ought to smile, offer his congratulations, and make a dignified exit.

But how could stubborn, obsessive Tan Xu bear to? Jiang Shirong had been the longing of his entire adolescence, his faith.

He had broken his own spine and shed more tears and blood than he could count just to get by his side.

He wanted his god to bow down to him.

If that wasn't possible,

then his god could go to hell with him.

If they couldn't be together, they would fight until death.

[An outwardly elegant and capable beauty with a shou's sickeningly intense possessiveness]

[A suited-up brute, a refined scoundrel with a fatherly streak, the gong]

Preview: This Omega Has No Pheromones

Lin Jing has a terminal case of being obsessed with coming out on top. If he isn't number one, he feels so miserable it's like someone's hacked him to pieces.

His Omega dream isn't to find a handsome, gentle Alpha.

It's to come first, every day and every month, until he dies with that first-place trophy in his coffin.

Bai Zhuming from the neighboring No. 1 High School is the biggest obstacle on Lin Jing's path to first place.

They compete in everything, from regular exams to contests to basketball, and Bai Zhuming always wins more often than he loses.

Lin Jing unilaterally considers Bai Zhuming his nemesis.

Even though they've never said a word to each other.

Until one day, his nemesis stole his takeout.

Lin Jing is the most famous Omega at Guanghua High School. What draws people in even more than his perfect math scores is the unspoken rumor that he's an Alpha pretending to be an Omega.

"Lin Jing was really good when he played basketball with us last time. He can't possibly be an Omega."

"Everyone at the high schools in Licheng knows Lin Jing is an Omega pretending to be an Alpha."

"He's on Guanghua's volleyball team. He's the only Omega on the boys' team, but even when he sweats during exercise, he doesn't give off any pheromones. Even Brother Bai couldn't control his pheromones that well, could he?"

"What Alpha doesn't release pheromones when he sweats during exercise? He must be using some kind of suppressant..."

His handsome looks, cheerful personality, and mysterious family background have won the hearts of more than half the Omegas at Licheng No. 1 High School.

But! He really is an Omega!

Won't somebody believe him?

No matter how much Lin Jing insists that he's an Omega, nobody believes him.

He's exhausted.

Until one day, he sees the search history on Bai Zhuming's phone.

"What kind of mindset does an Alpha pretending to be an Omega have?"

"What should two Alphas in a same-sex relationship watch out for?"

Lin Jing: ...

Note: This is not a double-Alpha romance.

Neither gong nor shou fans will be catered to.

The story contains many ABO elements of the author's own invention, but there are only six sexes: male and female Alphas, Betas, and Omegas. There are no Es or anything like that.

That's right, in our ABO world, there are six bathrooms.

Theme: Love and hate are only a moment apart.
