After Daddy Gets Tangled Up with a Spoiled, Scheming Puppy

The Huo family is a well-known financial dynasty. As its heir apparent, Huo Yunchuan is also widely regarded as one of the most eligible single Alphas in their circle.

But he has no interest in the Omegas who go out of their way to curry favor with him. He has just two requirements for a future partner:

"Obedient and sweet."

Someone who doesn't need to be coaxed and doesn't cause trouble.

Perfect for him.

Huo Yunchuan made time to attend the matchmaking dates his family arranged, but every candidate seemed like trouble.

Until the door opened again, and a strikingly beautiful face appeared across from him.

Ruan Xingyou, the young master of the Ruan family, a nineteen-year-old Omega.

The young master sat down in front of him, eyes lowered, hands neatly folded on his knees. His voice was soft and gentle. "Hello, Mr. Huo."

Obedient and sweet.

Huo Yunchuan was quite pleased.

The two began seeing each other naturally enough.

At a banquet, Ruan Xingyou stayed quietly by his side. When another Omega made a determined effort to get close to Huo Yunchuan, Ruan Xingyou's hand slipped as he held his wineglass, splashing the other person from head to toe.

Huo Yunchuan: ? How was he that accurate?

Ruan Xingyou's eyes reddened, and he looked over helplessly. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..."

Huo Yunchuan: Never mind. It's not a big deal.

Ruan Xingyou's pheromones smelled of strong rum, while Huo Yunchuan preferred sweet, rich Omega pheromones.

After that, every time they met, Huo Yunchuan caught some deliberately cloying sweet scent on him.

A different one every day.

Ruan Xingyou kept hovering around him, ears red as he waited for Huo Yunchuan's opinion, pretending it was all quite casual.

He was a little clumsy, but he really was well-behaved.

One day, Huo Yunchuan arrived early for their date and opened the restroom door.

His "sweet and obedient" match had the Omega who had flirted with Huo Yunchuan a few days earlier cornered by the sink.

The scent of rum filled the whole room.

Ruan Xingyou lifted his chin, looking haughty as he delivered an unmistakably vicious warning:

"Stop hanging around him. If I catch you looking at him again, I'll gouge your eyes out."

At the sound of the door, Ruan Xingyou turned around irritably.

The instant his eyes met Huo Yunchuan's, the arrogant sneer on his face froze. His pupils trembled, and he immediately turned to look up at Huo Yunchuan with an innocent expression, his voice soft and gentle.

"Mr. Huo, he started it..."

Huo Yunchuan: ...I'm not blind.
