A roguishly handsome alpha transferred in from the neighboring department and got along well with Xu Guo.
The alpha often brought him food, helped him with his sign-in for class, and even climbed through his window to bring him medicine when he was sick with a fever.
Xu Guo's roommate warned him, "Huo Qiongyan definitely has a crush on you."
After all, an alpha wouldn't be nice to an omega for no reason.
One day, Xu Guo stopped Huo Qiongyan and asked, "Why are you so good to me?"
At that, Huo Qiongyan raised an eyebrow, hooked an arm around his shoulders, and laughed shamelessly. "Why else? You're my bro!"
Xu Guo blinked in innocent confusion. "Oh... we're bros."
If he could turn back time, Huo Qiongyan would have loved to slap his stubborn younger self across the face.
Bros? What a load of crap!
That lie he'd blurted out just to save face haunted him with regret. Now, Xu Guo called him his bro every chance he got.
Even on Valentine's Day, when Huo Qiongyan worked up the courage to give Xu Guo a bouquet, Xu Guo merely went up on tiptoe, slung an arm around his shoulders, and playfully punched him in the chest. "Thanks, bro!"
Huo Qiongyan: "..."
Later, he finally couldn't hold back any longer and cornered the omega in a meeting room.
His gaze shifted uneasily as he rubbed his nose. "Actually, I've never thought of you as a bro."
Xu Guo smiled with his lips pressed together. "I know."
"Well, the thing is, I'm nice to you because I have other intentions."
Xu Guo was still smiling. "I know."
Huo Qiongyan froze. "You know all that?"
"Of course." Xu Guo tilted his head, his clear, innocent doe eyes full of mirth. "I also know you've had a crush on me for ages."
