Chapter 16: It's Omega, Wow

Often, children do not need any prominent features when they grow up. It could be that their facial features gradually develop unconsciously, their body gradually grows taller, or it could be an early stage of differentiation, acquiring a second gender. For example, Shen Li embodies both of these characteristics.

In the second half of the third year of junior high school, Shen Li received, without any surprise, the results of the previous examination. The report clearly stated the blood sample analysis data of this child and attached a final conclusion at the end of the paper. The general meaning of the conclusion was that the student who underwent the examination would undergo omega differentiation in the next one to two years.

Black words on white paper, with a crimson stamp on the bottom right corner, making it impossible to mistake.

However, Mrs. Yan, who had previously shown great concern about this matter, now took the report from Shen Li's hand with an unexpectedly calm heart. After all, the fact that Shen Li would eventually transform into an Omega would not change, at most she would just need to keep more inhibitors at home. Yan Jiexu would not deliberately target Shen Li for these things, let alone she had been raising him like her own son for the past few years and liked him more and more. After rationalizing her thoughts, Yan Jiexu specifically went to the pharmacy to buy several sets of inhibitors specifically for teenage Omegas. You never know when they would come in handy, it's always better to be prepared. However, what she didn't know was that no matter how precise the planning was, it would ultimately deviate from the original course.

That year, Luan Xi successfully passed the postgraduate entrance examination. The distance between the school and home was about one hour away. Yan Jiexu was worried that his son would be too tired from commuting for three years, so he suggested that he rent a one-room apartment near the school. Luan Xi didn't even think about it and immediately refused. It's also a coincidence that Yi Zixin had previously asked him for information, pretending to have the idea of taking the postgraduate entrance examination together with Luan Xi. His parents were both busy with business and didn't have much time or energy to manage him, so Yi Zixin could pretty much do whatever he wanted and no one could control him. He didn't lack money or material possessions. He had plenty of friends from his time before attending the police academy, and most of them were second-generation rich kids who liked causing trouble. He didn't have a single true confidant around him. After being roommates with Luan Xi for four years, Yi Zixin felt that Luan Xi was a good person with a good personality, and they got along well. From the bottom of his heart, he considered Luan Xi a close friend.

"Today the results were released, Xiaoge, you must have passed, right? We will see each other again in school for the next three years. Should we celebrate together?" On the night after the results were announced, Yizi Xin immediately called after checking his scores, his voice sounding indifferent.

Luan Xi was awakened not just by the noise, but also by the movement of the child beside him. His eyelashes trembled slightly as if he was about to wake up from a dream. He hurriedly reached out and gently stroked Shen Li's back, while using his other hand to answer the phone, suppressing his voice as he cursed, "Yi Zixin, do you have a problem? Do you even know what time it is now?"

Shen Li instinctively nestled into Luan Xi's arms, holding onto Luan Xi and sleepily calling out, "Brother." Afraid of waking him up, Luan Xi gently kissed the child's forehead and whispered softly in his ear.

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and Luan Xi was about to hang up, but unexpectedly, a tone of astonishment from Yi Zixin came through from the other side.

"Damn, really? Your precious little darling is still sleeping with you even at this age? So close, could it be that they're actually...?"

Halfway through the night, being rudely awakened, and now having to inexplicably listen to the other party's brainless teasing, he felt a surge of anger rushing to his head. He pinched the bridge of his nose and interrupted the other person's words.

"I advise you to discuss matters if you have any." Luan Xi tried his best to make his tone sound calm.

Yi Zixin inwardly thought that the situation was not good, and immediately got straight to the point, "I just wanted to ask if you want to share a rental together. If we live on campus, there are too many restrictions and lack of freedom."

Obviously, Luan Xi would never agree. He had clearly declined Yi Zixin over the phone. He thought to himself that he was originally planning to take the entrance examination in his hometown. If Shen Li found out that he had quietly moved out, wouldn't she make a fuss again?

I'm sorry, but there is no Chinese novel paragraph provided in your request. Please provide the paragraph you would like me to translate and I will be happy to assist you.

During the year that Luan Xi attended boarding school, almost every night when it was time to sleep, Shen Li would rush to Luan Xi's room in his slippers without fail. It was as consistent as thunder striking. Even Luan Xi's nightstand was adorned with Shen Li's water cup, extracurricular exercise books, and snacks. Sometimes, even he found it amusing, as if they were living together.

The change occurred only after Shen Li handed the inspection report to Yan Jiexu.

The school only introduced the course of reproductive education when the students reached the third year of junior high. The knowledge taught varies greatly depending on the different sexes. Besides raising awareness about the three genders, Omega students will also learn how to deal with their heat period and the proper use of various suppressants, along with important precautions.

Yan Jiexu was well aware that children are still in a stage of ignorance when it comes to the second gender. However, considering their unique family situation, it is only natural for a regular family to not have a pair of non-biological AO brothers.

And no matter how you put it, Luǎn Xī is a young and spirited Alpha. She is afraid that Shěn Lí will undergo premature differentiation due to Luǎn Xī's pheromones, which is not a good thing for Shěn Lí's growth. Therefore, she patiently explains the principles to Shěn Lí, allowing her to start developing the mindset of an Omega.

After that, Yan Jiexu would go to Shen Li's room to comfort him and help him fall asleep when it was time. As time went by and Shen Li no longer insisted on going to find Luan Xi, Yan Jiexu also let go of her worries. However, she couldn't guess that after she left, Shen Li would start counting the time and half an hour later, he would sneak into Luan Xi's room with a pillow in his arms on time.

On this evening, Shen Li still quietly snuck into Luan Xi's room, hugging a pillow and bending her waist.

My mother has told you to learn to be independent, why do you keep coming to me every day?" Yan Jiexu was too focused on teaching Shen Li that he neglected to mention the matter of Shen Li's separation with Luan Xi.

Shen Li mumbled, "I, I want to sleep with you." He placed his own pillow next to Luan Xi's pillow.

"When I was your age, I was already sleeping by myself," Luan Xi adjusted the child's blankets and asked casually after lying down, "My mom used to spoil you so much, why did she suddenly start teaching you to become independent?"

Shen Li held Luan Xi's hand as she tucked the blanket for him, blinking in the darkness, seemingly recalling the note and the profound words Yan Jiexu had said to him. "Aunt Yan said she's worried that I might prematurely undergo omega differentiation because of your pheromones."
