3. Includes entertainment-industry plotlines.
Lin Ze was born into an ordinary family of two beta office workers.
Growing up in this era of a huge population and intense competition, he understood one thing from an early age: working for someone else was out of the question. You could never get rich that way.
So before he presented at eighteen, he quietly made a grand vow: one day, he would marry into a wealthy family.
For that purpose, he carefully looked after his face, mastered music, honed his cooking, and used his brains to get into a top university. Even if he couldn't present as an omega, he would become an outstanding beta.
Alas, fate had other plans. The biggest obstacle appeared on the day he filled out his college applications: Lin Ze presented as an alpha, and a rare S-class one at that!
S-class alphas may have certain advantages in society, but they can only work for the financial elite.
To marry into a wealthy family, Lin Ze started changing his strategy. Eight-pack abs, just the kind omegas like? Coming right up! Little omegas like celebrities? He switched his major from classical music to acting.
Who says an S-class alpha can't live off a rich omega? Rich omegas may be rare, but if you look hard enough, you'll find one. If you don't try, you'll never get to live off one!
A top university offered plenty of opportunities. At the freshman welcome party, Lin Ze, now sporting an eight-pack, met his target: Huo Ran, the head of a powerful financial conglomerate.
Huo Ran was born to rule. From childhood on, his path through life had been the perfect model and the nightmare of every scion of the wealthy elite. He skipped a grade and entered middle school at eight, graduated with two university degrees at fifteen and went abroad for further study, then took over the family business at eighteen. Everything about him was flawless.
Though, to everyone's surprise, he presented as an omega, he still fought his way through a crowd of alpha brothers and took control of the family. Wherever he went, everyone addressed him as Chairman Huo.
Yet at twenty-eight, there wasn't a single alpha who could get close to him, until he met an interesting young man who struck up a conversation with him at his alma mater.
At first, he thought the other was an ambitious omega and rather admired him. The little omega had ambition, but was only pretending to be pitiful to get some entertainment-industry opportunities. He was happy to provide them.
He never expected the other man to be an alpha trying to snag a rich omega, bold enough to set his sights on him. And he really did fall for it.
