Can Betas Be Threatened by Pheromones Too?

[Recommendations: My serialized novel, Straight-A Guy Long Aotian Becomes a High-Risk Mentor ^0^]

I don't dare turn on my mic when I'm playing online with my crush. I'm afraid he'll hear me clucking, bleating, quacking...

Jiang Yelan has been feeling strange lately.

Ever since school started, a pair of fluffy ears have been popping up on his head.

At first, he thought he was hallucinating, since he was the only one who could see them. But his roommate, Chi Zhouyu, never looked at him strangely. Besides, why was Chi Zhouyu always there whenever the ears appeared?

It wasn't until Chi Zhouyu went into heat that Jiang Yelan realized it was because of pheromones.

After that, his roommate Chi Zhouyu would use his pheromones to "threaten" him from time to time.

He'd make Jiang Yelan touch him with his own hand during class, steal his giant chicken drumstick at meals, and, worst of all, crawl into Jiang Yelan's bed in the middle of winter to get warm, then slip his cold hands under Jiang Yelan's clothes...

Jiang Yelan held up his phone. "I have a boyfriend. I hope you'll keep your distance."

Chi Zhouyu held back a laugh. "An A and a B can't spark anything. Besides, we're good buddies."

Jiang Yelan pulled his tail away from where it was wrapped around his "good buddy's" arm and scoffed. "I can wear a huge padded coat and your little brother will still get hard. Also, don't touch my ears."

Chi Zhouyu: "No way!"

Luckily, the school went on break not long after, and Jiang Yelan went back to the countryside.

But after he got home, his usually taciturn online boyfriend kept asking him to play games and voice chat.

As a result, all Jiang Yelan could think about while trying to sleep was: Please turn on your microphone and talk!!!

He was just about to message his boyfriend and tell him to stop pretending when the other guy messaged first, suggesting they play Truth or Dare by rolling dice.

He lost in the very first round and chose Dare.

Online boyfriend: Video-call your boyfriend.

Jiang Yelan: Which one are you talking about?

Online boyfriend: ???

In less than three seconds, his online boyfriend called him. As soon as he picked up, a familiar voice came through the phone.

"Jiang Yelan, what did you mean by that? How many boyfriends do you have?"

Looking at the flushed, furious face on the screen, Jiang Yelan couldn't help laughing. "Is that a different question?"

Chi Zhouyu laughed in exasperation. "Did you know it was me all along?"

Jiang Yelan: "Two years ago, you sent me a picture of a pearl (pig). I forgot to tell you, I was there the day Pearl ended up on the dinner table."

Reader's guide:

1. They both know who their online boyfriend is, but neither has directly revealed his secret identity.

2. The gong's pheromones make the shou grow fluffy ears.

3. Beta shou x alpha gong.

4. One-on-one romance, both have no prior sexual experience.

Serialized novel: Straight-A Guy Long Aotian Becomes a Mentor

Xie Zhenzhou is a famous slacker in the cultivation world. If he can lie down, he won't sit, and if he can sit, he won't stand. Out of every twelve hours in a day, he spends nine lying motionless.

Lots of people can't stand him, but he happens to be incredibly lucky, and his talent for the puppet arts is astonishing.

At just sixteen, he became a sixth-rank puppet master, dazzling the world with his brilliance.

Then, after returning to his sect from an outing, everyone suddenly discovered that all the puppets under his control had been destroyed.

He had also turned a living person into a puppet and openly kept him by his side.

Turning a living person into a puppet! A violation of human ethics, a denial of humanity! He deserves to die!

For a time, the whole world joined in the outcry, and a tide of weapons surged toward him.

The once-beloved genius fell into the dust, meeting his end with his soul and spirit utterly destroyed. After his death, his ashes were scattered at the entrance to the cultivation world, where everyone could trample them at will.

The crowd laughed in delight, mouths still wide open, when a disciple responsible for guarding the coffins in the ancestral shrine suddenly came running up to them, rolling and scrambling. He stammered:

"S-something's wrong! The coffin lid of our founding patriarch just moved!"

*

Xie Zhenzhou is very fond of the disciple he picked up. He's strong and clever, and he'll even wash his hands to cook for him.

Until one night, Xie Zhenzhou accidentally entered his disciple's dream, where the disciple pinned him down and kissed him wildly, even tugging at his robes...

Xie Zhenzhou's world came crashing down.

# I treat you like my disciple, but you treat me like your husband?!

# Hey! Look carefully, I'm a man, a man!!

From then on, Xie Zhenzhou couldn't help seeing his disciple, who liked men, in a different light. He himself was acting strangely, too. It seemed he didn't dislike his disciple treating him this way...

# This is a bit of a headache. He's the disciple I raised myself. Now that he's turned out to like men, I should do something to save this wayward boy.

That night, Xie Zhenzhou called his disciple to his room to sleep together. He deliberately snored, sprawled out like a pancake, stole the blanket, and kicked and flailed, determined to show him that men weren't as alluring as women.

In the middle of the night, he was kissed until he was red all over and tongue-tied. "G-get out... Get out. We're both men, and we're master and disciple. This is incest... completely against the natural order."

"Master, I'm still your puppet, your one and only puppet, Master."

???!!!

# I don't get it. He likes men, and I'm straight. Why is he the one riding me?!
