How Did My Obsessive, Brooding Rival in Love Turn Into a Loyal Puppy?

Gu Wei and He has been pretending to be an Alpha for eight years, waking up and going to sleep every day consumed by anxiety over his identity.

As the Asian record holder in middle- and long-distance running, he has never revealed his secondary gender since entering the sport. He let the public assume he was an Alpha with superior physical abilities, unwilling to disclose his more prestigious identity as an Omega world champion.

It was all because of that perverted coach.

He had to fly. He had to escape. Only if he got away completely might he dare to let others know his true gender.

Until he met Ji Yan.

A heaven-favored son, impossibly arrogant. Just because Gu Wei and He walked into a hotel with the person Ji Yan unilaterally considered his arranged-marriage partner, Ji Yan took him for a rival in love.

At a globally renowned brand's new product launch, Ji Yan publicly announced that he hated Gu Wei and He in front of tens of millions of viewers.

Overnight, Gu Wei and He was thrust into the spotlight. The trending searches stayed at the top, dominating the hot-topic lists across social media platforms.

For the sake of his career, he swallowed his pride and apologized. But the moment Ji Yan laid eyes on him, he became completely obsessed.

In a private room, Ji Yan leaned over him and said, "If you want me to apologize and clear things up, you have to make a deal with me. Otherwise, how much do you think you're worth my time?"

Later, on a dating show, Ji Yan glared at his childhood friend, grinding his teeth.

He paid to boost posts shipping him and Gu Wei and He.

And during a game segment, he directly confessed his feelings to Gu Wei and He.

Under the global livestream cameras, Ji Yan carried Gu Wei and He out of the filming venue and chuckled, "Don't get the wrong idea. We just went into heat at the same time and took leave together, that's all."

At 27, Ji Yan had personally captured a quarter of the fashion industry's market. Everyone had heard of his name.

There were two people he hated most in the world: his useless younger brother, who opposed him at every turn, and Gu Wei and He, who had humiliated him in public.

How dare this Alpha walk into a hotel with the person he was trying to woo? Did he not care about keeping his hide?

Ji Yan sneered. With a casual gesture at his company's new product launch, he tossed Gu Wei and He into an online maelstrom.

He thought he was merely punishing another fool who didn't value his own life, just as he always did. But after seeing Gu Wei and He come to apologize, he changed his mind.

This guy... Why does he look just as handsome without makeup as he does on screen with makeup?

Through threats and enticements, he finally forced him into a corner, only to suddenly notice that his gland was unusually flat.

Ji Yan lowered his head and sniffed. "You're a strange Alpha. Why don't you have a scent?"
