Chapter 5: Chapter 5
Tang Bai, who had waited for a long time without waiting for Xie Ruhang's reply, rubbed his head and carefully read the chat logs between himself and Xie Ruhang again.
Is it possible that his words are too heavy? Xie Ruhang is so proud of himself, surely he doesn't like others to say that his health is poor, and they have just met, they are not familiar enough to talk like this.
After realizing this, Tang Bai wailed and tried to salvage his precarious relationship with Xie Ruhang, and before he could organize his words, Xie Ruhang sent him a video.
The video is of Xie Ruhang in training, doing push-ups with one finger on his face and the other hand on his back at a dizzying pace.
For the sake of training convenience, the first three buttons of the white shirt were unbuttoned, and pale abs could be vaguely seen through the collar as it shifted during training.
There is a cacophony of hooting and hollering coming from the video, some people are laughing and cursing while saying Brother Xie is awesome, and there are also military cadets whistling, so it's hilarious just by the sound of it.
At the end of the video, Xie Ruhang easily gets up, and his handsome face is still bloodless white, with a tear mole at the end of his eye, which makes him ascetic and sexy.
Tang Bai touched his nose and smiled shyly at the light screen; it seemed like every time he saw Xie Ruhang's face, he received a beauty blast.
I didn't realize that Xie Ruhang would be so adorable in private, and even went on to make a video to prove that she wasn't physically weak! It's so cute to be serious!
It's true that omega is the cutest creature in the world!
Following the example of the military cadet in the video, Tang Bai truly bragged, "Brother Xie is awesome! Punish myself for my rashness.gif"
Xie Ruhang saw the silly way Cat got into the wine glass and couldn't pull her head out to shake it, he couldn't help but look at it more, it was the first time he had seen these cute and cuddly emoticons.
How can you be so cute, so cute that it's totally irritating ......
It's true that omega is the cutest creature in the world!
Xie Ruhang replied back, "I'm free after 4 p.m. I'll take you to the slums then, bento doesn't have to be prepared every day, just teach me manners."
Tang Bai quickly replied, "Okay! I'll wait for you in front of your school at four o'clock in the afternoon! I can teach you manners first! Catwink.gif"
After fixing the time, Tang Bai returned to school with a brisk pace. Her roommate was pouting on the bed, painting her nails, and when she saw Tang Bai's joyful return, she asked curiously, "Why are you so happy? Your fiancé is obsessed with your cooking?"
Tang Bai's small face wrinkled, goosebumps all over his body, hurriedly corrected: "It's quasi-fiancé, eight has not even begun, don't remove the word 'quasi' for me."
The elders of the Tang and Gu families are very happy with Tang Bai and Gu Tunan, and would like to see them get engaged right away, but Tang Bai and Gu Tunan are both "stalling" to their families, and so the two of them have become the fiancées in the elders' mouths.
"They're all about the same." Seeing Tang Bai's furtive gaze, Tong Meng hurriedly changed his words, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, your fiancé-to-be is up to something again?"
The word "again" should be "oo", after all, Gu Tunan has been doing this for a long time.
The first time Tang Bai and Gu Tunan met was at a hotel. Tang Bai dressed up and went to the appointment, only to hear Gu Tunan's "I like the new age omega" speech at the beginning.
After listening to Gu Tunan's superiority speech with no expression on her face, Tang Bai, in the mood to return the favor, crossed her fingers and pointed at Gu Tunan in a whiny manner, "I like a soft and gentle alpha, best to spoil me like a little baby."
And then Gu Tunan was so disgusted by Tang Bai's stunt that he didn't eat his dinner.
Gu Tunan has been fighting with Tang Bai ever since, probably because of that first unpleasant meeting.
After all, the omega in the general environment cannot meet Gu Tunan's requirements, and Gu Tunan's parents are looking forward to Gu Tunan's marriage, so Tang Bai becomes the unlucky shield at this time.
Gu Tunan is so determined that he likes Tang Bai that he is forced to go on a blind date with him even though he is not satisfied with him.
At first, Tang Bai didn't know that Gu Tunan was deliberately trying to torment him. The first time he was stood up by Gu Tunan, Tang Bai happily went to play with his little sister because it was not easy for omega to take a vacation from school.
After being stood up by Gu Tunan for the second time, Tang Bai continues to play happily with her little sister.
So much so that Tang Bai regretted the third time Gu Tunan didn't stand him up.
Where is the company of an alpha with advanced straight A cancer as happy as playing with your little sister?
Tang Bai is not stupid, he can see that Gu Tunan is deliberately trying to torment him and using him as a shield. Coincidentally, Tang Bai also wants to find a shield, although Gu Tunan's personality is a bit naive, but his looks are not bad, and Gu Tunan doesn't want to talk to him at all, so every time they go on a date, it is very perfunctory. The "date" is very perfunctory, and the task can be accomplished quickly and conveniently, leaving Tang Bai with enough time to play with his little sister.
Tang Bai would have wasted a lot of time on a different blind date, so he might as well use Gu Tunan as a shield, since he never loses a verbal battle anyway.
"I'm happy because I met a new friend." Tang Bai looked at the time it was already 1:30 p.m. It was probably a bit of a rush to make a good meal before four o'clock, so he might as well bring some of the desserts he usually made himself over there.
The book does not describe what Xie Ruhang likes to eat, but omegas generally have a sweet tooth, and Xie Ruhang should be no exception. Tang Bai hummed a little song and picked out the Ma Kalong, and then chose a delicate bag and wrapped it up with great care.
Tong Meng was paralyzed in bed, "Which one of your little sisters are you giving it to? I advise you to bring some tea before your sister gets bored to death."
Tang Bai tossed a Ma Kalong into the air, and ah-oh caught it in one bite, nibbling it happily, his cheeks puffing out, "It just has to be sweet enough to make you feel happy~"
Tong Meng toothache said, "I'm afraid of having happiness fat, really envy you guys like how to eat can not eat fat skinny people."
After Tang Bai found a tin of good green tea in a beautifully wrapped bag, ready for his gift to Xie Ruhang, he stopped by and grabbed a copy of If You Had Little Alpha off the shelf.
This book describes the titles an alpha should read from birth to college.
He's going to give his textbook to Gu Tunan in the hope that the late-stage Straight A cancer patient will realize that it's hard for an omega to go to school, and that he has to work hard to learn a bunch of alpha-serving skills in a society that says "an omega is a good person if he has no talents.
And then no matter how much one studies, they can't get rid of the label of a trophy in the eyes of alpha, but do those superior alpha's ever actually think about the fact that not all of them have ever had all those advantages that they have when they criticize omega's.
All alpha academies aspire to produce swords and shields to guard the Federation, but all omega academies are keen to produce pretty vases.
Tang Bai once wondered, if an omega enters an alpha academy, will he still be a trophy after all the hard work he's been through? Likewise, if an omega enters an alpha academy, will he still be a great leader and dominator?
There is no answer to the latter question, but Xie Ruhang has given the best answer to the former.
Tang Bai puffed up his chest with pride and wrapped both gifts, there was another reason why he gave Gu Tunan that book, Tang Bai used Gu Tunan as a tool person for taking leave.
Tang Bai's school is very strict about omega's entry and exit, it's hard for omega to go out alone, but it's easy for them to take a leave of absence under the pretext of "dating their prospective fiancé" because the school is happy for omega to find a good quality alpha.
To put it bluntly, while other schools look at the employment rate and careers of their students, Tang Bai goes to a school that counts the careers and social status of the partners of its students, and prides itself on the fact that its students are well-married, hence the nickname "Bridal Academy.
"Dating her fiancé-to-be" is an unbeatable excuse for a leave of absence, which is why Tang Bai is willing to bring lunchboxes to Gu Tunan, even though she doesn't care about him.
After all, every time I take a vacation, I have to ask Gu Tunan to report to the teacher by video, so sending him a lunchbox is a kind of payment.
While Tang Bai was filling out his leave form, Tong Meng was holding his feet and painting his toenails, saying as he did so, "Remember to come back early and make sure you let alpha drive you back to school."
"I've heard that some omega has been abused in the slums in the past few days, and even though we have better security here than in the slums, who can guarantee that there won't be any accidents?"
Tang Bai's hand was slowing down as he filled out the leave form, "What exactly is going on?"
Tong Meng sighed, "I'm not sure, my brother still told me about this, but our security here isn't as bad as the slums, so as long as you don't wander around alone in the alleys, odds are you won't get into trouble."
The slums are indeed chaotic, because of that novel, Tang Bai knows that the slums have not only underground arenas, but also the largest red light district in the whole federation, many missing omega are sent to the red light district.
Xie Ruhang in the book divides and conceals his gender, also partly for safety reasons.
With Xie Ruhang accompanying him, nothing should happen, but Tang Bai was still a bit uneasy, so he took out a diamond-encrusted portable energy gun from his jewelry box.
If the diamonds on the surface of this energy gun were removed, most military students would be able to recognize it as the "Commander" series of energy guns from the Military Research Institute's latest research and development division.
The price is so high that it makes people sad to hear about it, but the key is that this series of weapons is still unavailable, and Tang Bai's grandfather was the chief of the Weapons Institute of the Military Research Institute, so he was able to give Tang Bai such a precious gift.
The magic silver on the "Sea of Blue" chain was also given to Tang Bai by his grandfather.
The reason why he was able to ask for these is that Tang Bai learned a lesson from his childhood, that if he told his family that I was going to wear alpha combat fatigues, they were two hundred percent different.
But if he says, "I want to wear a pink combat suit with lace trim," his family will hesitate. Tang Bai then says, "You won't buy him new clothes even if he wants to, you're bad," and his family will be relieved when they see that Tang Bai is still so angry.
Tang Bai followed a similar method, to Tang Grandpa soft, stalking, saying "I just want to try how well the jewelry and weapons match, after decorating it will be used for the collection of oh" such nonsense, to achieve the goal.
"What kind of jewelry do you have, why is it in the shape of a gun, it doesn't look good." At the moment, Tong Meng doesn't realize that his whiny roommate is wrapping something around his waist that could blow his head off with a single shot.
Tang Bai didn't explain, he was in a good mood as he opened his closet to choose a dress, "Is this one too sparkly?" Tang Bai's left hand is carrying a diamond-encrusted dark blue dress, and his right hand is carrying a dress that utilizes lace elements, "This one seems to be too flowery again."
Tong Meng guessed that Tang Bai was going to meet his omega sister as soon as he saw that Tang Bai was so entangled, and their omega would only be so grand when they met their sisters.
"Wear something fresh, baby?" Tong Meng sighs, "With that face of yours, the only way to bring out your clean demeanor is to dress simple, trust me, a white shirt, not to mention alpha, even a girly omega like me would be impressed."
Tang Bai has a face as clear and delicate as an angel's, and every night when she comes out of the shower in her simple white pajamas, Tong Meng is struck on the spot by the ultimate innocence of her beauty.
It's a pity that Tang Bai loves the fancy and bitchy clothes that are full of noblewomen, and it's more suitable for Tang Bai to wear them, but they are pure and beautiful.
Seeing Tang Bai turn a deaf ear, Tong Meng said helplessly, "Ugh forget it, the place you guys are going to is suitable for this kind of noblewoman style anyway."
Tang Bai smiled and suddenly reacted, the place he is going to this time is a slum, dressed like this will definitely be very conspicuous.
Tang Bai looked hesitantly at the two pieces of clothing, and although he believed in having fun with what he wore, he was afraid that what he wore would cause trouble for Xie Ruhang.
There are times when it's important to make yourself happy, but that happiness can't be a problem for the people you care about.
Tang Bai relented and said to Tong Meng, "Do you have any plainer clothes?"
Tong Meng: "!!!"
Tong Meng in hot tears, "I did!!!"
*
Tang Bai stands at the entrance to the Federal Military Academy and realizes he's suddenly turning heads.
Although he had already had a high turnaround rate, this time several passersby had their eyes going wild.
Tang Bai doesn't like those alpha's overpowering attention, always feel that their eyes are lustful, it's better to dress expensively so that you can let those alpha's know that -
I'm noble. You're not worthy.
Glancing down at the clock, three o'clock sharp, he had come an hour early especially to hand deliver this book to Gu Tunan.
It's mainly because Gu Tunan is so busy that he won't let him leave his stuff at the guardhouse and has to deliver it himself.
If Tang Bai leaves his things unattended, Gu Tunan will contact Tang Bai's teacher directly and report that he has not seen Tang Bai, claiming that he is worried about Tang Bai's safety.
Gu Tunan, the alpha, is very small-minded and will toss Tang Bai around on little things every time he's defeated.
These include making an appointment, but deliberately delaying it for 20 to 30 minutes, leaving Tang Bai to wait, and Gu Tunan's insidious tendency to show up early and report Tang Bai's failure to show up.
The target of the complaint is naturally Director Huang, who gave Tang Bai his leave of absence.
When Director Huang found out about this, he would drag Tang Bai around and tell him how to be a good omega to please his alpha. This kind of brainwashing education would take about three to four hours, and it would make Tang Bai's brain dizzy, but the director really believed that he was doing it for Tang Bai's own good.
Yeah, everyone thinks it's for his own good to keep him with Gu Tunan.
Even his grandfather, who favored him the most, thought so.
Gu Tunan comes from a good family, has good looks, good grades, and a bright future. If he and Gu Tunan get together, he'll be a major general's wife at least.
As to whether Gu Tunan loved him or not, and whether he loved Gu Tunan or not, no one would care about that.
Tang Bai remembers the teacher saying something like, "Xiao Tang, when Gu Tunan marks you, you'll be in love by instinct." ......
Pretty amber eyes darkening, Tang Bai tugged at the corner of his mouth, finding the whole instinct thing hilarious.
He couldn't imagine that he would, in time, become dependent, subservient, and adore Gu Tunan for such horrible things as being fully marked.
Whether the subject was Gu Tunan or some other alpha, he couldn't accept it.
Tang Bai doesn't even know if the person after being tagged is still himself?
What he wants is not a misplaced attraction that succumbs to physical instincts, but a match of three views, a resonance of the soul, love in its purest form.
But as a precious omega, Tang Bai must marry and be alpha-marked, it's federal law.
He has no right to refuse.
Perhaps it is for this reason that he likes Xie Ruhang, he envies Xie Ruhang's freedom to choose what he wants in life, and he admires Xie Ruhang's courage to cut off his glands and inject camouflage agent for the sake of freedom.
He likes people like Xie Ruhang, people who know what they want to be and have the courage to pay for it.
Tang Bai sighed and looked up to see Gu Tunan's figure.
Gu Tunan, who has never given Tang Bai a good look, has never been so relaxed after seeing Tang Bai's outfit today.
It's hard for an alpha to be disgusted by Tang Bai dressed like this.
Tang Bai body of that petite still in, but not have a sense of distance with the fancy dress complementary to the delicate, but the small white flower of the delicate, is the kind of parents seriously ill, lonely, poor need the whole world alpha all give him a home of the delicate.
Very straight A chop.
Even Gu Tunan, who is a fan of independent omega, was for a moment impressed by Tang Bai's stubbornness in her innocence, and even began to regret a little that she shouldn't have made Tang Bai wait so long.
Gu Tunan remembered that he had told Tang Bai before that he liked omega to wear simple and generous clothes, without too much pretense, just fresh and natural.
A flash of realization dawned in his gray-blue eyes, and Gu Tunan couldn't help but give Tang Bai a meaningful look.
Tang Bai: "????"
What's this Bean Batch thinking?
Tang Bai handed the book to Gu Tunan headfirst, "Read more, enrich yourself, so you won't know everything later."
Gu Tunan frowned, and when he saw that the title of the book was "If you have a little alpha", he looked deeply at the little omega who was in a hurry ~sex~, and then turned to leave, leaving behind a high(zi) deep(zuo) mo(duo) measuring(qing) back.
Tang Bai: "????"
And what is this Beanpole thinking?
Tang Bai stood blankly at the school entrance, he thought he would have to wait for a long time because he and Xie Ruhang had arranged to meet at four o'clock, and it was only half past three now, but within a few minutes, Tang Bai saw Xie Ruhang.
Xie Ruhang came early for his appointment.
Tang Bai happily like a lark, da da da da trotted towards Xie Ruhang, leaving the student on duty in the janitor's room with a head full of question marks, "If I'm not mistaken, this Mei O is in contact with two of our schoolboys at the same time????"
