If he wasn't sure who it was at the beginning, the last two words is too obvious.

Shen Jin could even imagine the other person's eyes raised and the nonchalant look when he was speaking.

Recently, a new feature has been developed in the chat software, which allows you to fill in a reason for rejection, so there is no need to hesitate.

They are not familiar with each other and have no interaction in daily life, so why add?

He clicked "Reject": [What's the matter?]

*

Under the influence of the autumn heat, the outdoor temperature still soared to 30 degrees at night. Qian Kun broke out in a sweat as soon as he returned home.

He didn't like the sticky feeling and immediately went into the bathroom. When he came out, he saw the phone on the desk vibrating non-stop.

He forgot to set up no-notifications for the class group, where an in-depth discussion on the outcome of tonight's match took place.

Liu Qimai: [I think we can still try to save the situation. It's a bit hasty to decide the outcome in one try. We should try at least three times!]

Jiang Yifan: [Can't afford to lose?]

Luo Ying: [Can't afford to lose?]

Hou Ruixing: [Can't afford to lose?]

[......]

Why is it so difficult to discuss this with you guys?

Are all the people in Class 9 reincarnated argumentative people?

Liu Qimai didn't want to be so humble. He thought, he used to be a tyrant in a private school in the past. He had been a big shot for many years and had fallen only a few times.

Who told him to see this group of people discussing making them change into women's clothes to attend the class opening ceremony of the three-school joint sports meeting in a few months.

This move of cutting off the source of the problem directly made Liu Qimai and the others wilted.

A real man can bend and stretch, can A or O. If you can't beat them, just join them!

So Liu Qimai pulled other transfer students together and roamed around in the group, trying his best to persuade them to change to something else.

He also had to maintain his status and ask the students in Class 9 to help him, which was a great test of his language skills.

Qian Kun watched for a while and wiped his wet hair.

Just as he was about to close it, he remembered something. He clicked on the group members, scrolled around, and saw the avatar of a round-faced, big-eyed rabbit. He applied to add it as a friend.

He took a screenshot of the avatar and sent it to Liu Qimai: What is the name of this fat thing?

Liu Qimai was still fighting, and when he saw Qian Kun was online and not helping, he started to curse: [You, this Shang Zhou, have you been bewitched by a vixen? You see us being bullied like this, and you still ask nonsense questions!]

(t/n: Liu Qimai is probably referring to King Zhou of Shang who was cruel, tyrannical, indulged in alcohol and sex, and has a long history of doing evil.)

Qian Kun: [Aren't you having a lot of fun?]

Liu Qimai: [I endured humiliation and infiltrated the enemy. Do you understand?]

After joking with each other for a while, Liu Qimai looked at the avatar.

He has dated many Omegas and can tell where they come from at a glance.

[This fat white guy is called Hug Rabbit, and there is another fat pink guy as a pair.]

[A pair?]

[Yes, there are couples all around. I had a girlfriend who liked this and forced me to play claw machines for her for an entire afternoon. But some people wear it just because they think it's cute. I remember Ice God used this, and he used the male A version. As expected of him, he doesn't take gender seriously. It's hard to believe that a widow like him would use a couple profile picture with anyone.]

(t/n: A widow is a popular internet term referring to a person who has been single since childhood or a lonely person without a partner.)

Qian Kun's fingers tapped the screen intentionally or unintentionally, his light eyes looking at the avatar, not knowing what he was thinking.

Before he could reply, he received a rejection message from Shen Jin, who also sent three words: What's the matter?

He has never been rejected by anyone in his life since he was born.

The few times he was rejected were almost all recently, by the same person.

Qian Kun thought it was funny. He must have really pissed off the little ice cube, and it didn't even want to keep up the pretence anymore.

Qian Kun knew to stop when he should. Any further additions would probably result in a rejection.

It's better to go to school and stroke people's fur. If you really provoke them, they'll ignore you in the future.

Shen family.

After Shen Xie'an drove his parents out, he became more and more angry the more he thought about it.

Some things cannot be thought about too carefully. Once you think about them too carefully, you will feel that some people are getting more than they deserve.

He knocked on his parents' door. Xie Yan opened the door and asked curiously, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I want to talk to mom and dad."

Xie Yan always thought that Shen Xie'an was still a baby, but she didn't expect that he could already have a heart-to-heart talk with his parents. She felt relieved.

"Sure, what do you want to talk about?"

Shen Xie'an: "It's about the engagement. Why didn't you refuse on the spot when the Ke family proposed a replacement? In my parents' eyes, my elder brother's and my marriages are bargaining chips for you to strive for the top position?"

Shen Qing frowned: "Watch your attitude. Where are the etiquettes I taught you?"

Xie Yan glared at her husband and tried to hold Shen Xie'an's hand, but her youngest son dodged her.

She sighed and said, "Xiao An, many things are not as simple as you see. The current working capital of the Shen family is guaranteed by the Ke family, including some suppliers and channels, which have their influence. Once we collapse, not only the entire Shen family will be affected, but also the thousands of workers of the Shen family. The unemployment rate is so high now, we can't just think about ourselves. Besides, compared to Xiao Jin, you and A-Huai have known each other for a longer time, right?"

"What a joke! What does this have to do with how long we've known each other? Even though I don't understand a lot of things, I also know that if I agree, there's a term for it out there: Xiao San!"

(t/n: xiao san = mistress)

"Mom and Dad, don't you care about the reputation I have? Aren't you selling out your son?"

Shen Qing was so angry at his youngest son that he walked over and raised his hand.

Shen Xie'an was trembling with fear, but he did not run away. He simply closed his eyes.

In the end, the slap did not land, and it was Xie Yan who stopped Shen Qing.

After Shen Qing got angry, the Alpha's pheromone pressure almost made Shen Xie'an unable to stand.

Shen Qing: "You have been led astray by your brother. You can actually say such things! You want to hurt your mother and me!"

They didn't notice that there was a person standing outside the slightly open door.

Standing like a sculpture, silent and motionless.

Shen Xie'an endured the pain of surrendering to an Alpha and said with a smile: "Why do you have to push everything onto my brother? Can't it be that I can't stand your partiality?"

"I still remember when I was a kid, I went to play on the swing and I pestered my elder brother to push me higher. My elder brother couldn't persuade me, so he had to push harder. But I didn't hold on tightly and fell off, and passed out. As soon as you arrived outside the emergency room, without asking any questions, you asked whether it was my elder brother who made me fall. Did he do it on purpose?"

Seeing his parents' faces change, how could they really feel nothing and have no guilt at all? Shen Xie'an knew that it worked, and spoke even slower.

"You both didn't listen to elder brother's explanation at all."

Xie Yan remembered the misunderstanding and wanted to compensate her eldest son afterwards, but her eldest son turned around coldly and went back to the Xie family to find his cousin, Xie Ling. He stayed at the Xie family for three months before returning.

Seeing that they could not persuade him to return, and having to take care of Shen Xie'an, running back and forth between the company and the hospital, they forgot about it and thought that Xie Ling should be able to take good care of him.

Sometimes misunderstandings are left unresolved and slowly become old wounds. It is not until the skin breaks and becomes festered that we realize that the knot in our heart has already rotted.

"I don't even want to tell you about what happened later. Even when you were betrothing my elder brother, you didn't ask for his opinion. As the person involved, he was the last person to know. Now you're breaking off the engagement and you don't take his opinion to heart. You agreed when I said I didn't agree, and you want to wait until my elder brother say he doesn't agree. What are you waiting for? Waiting for the Ke family to turn around? Even if it is a scale, it wouldn't be so biased!!"

Shen Xie'an wiped away his tears and looked at his parents who were left speechless by what he said.

"Is elder brother really your biological son?"

"What's wrong with him? His grades are much better than mine, and he inherited all of your strengths. Do you know how many people envy me for having such an outstanding brother?"

"I asked him why he didn't refuse afterwards if he didn't want to get engaged, and he said he was raised by the Shen family and had an obligation to repay them!"

"He has never disobeyed you! You, however, always think the worst of him just because he is so smart!"

"Now that elder brother has differentiated into Beta, you didn't say it clearly, but why didn't you bring him to the Ke family's banquet? Are you afraid of being embarrassed? Do you really think elder brother can't feel your attitude?"

"If I were elder brother, I wouldn't want to stay in this house for a moment!"

"Because this place makes me suffocated!"

After saying this, Shen Xie'an rushed out. There was no one outside the door.

He returned to his room and sat by the door, breathing heavily.

His tears kept falling, not for himself, but for Shen Jin.

He just felt that his elder brother was too wronged.

An Alpha's natural pheromone suppression made him feel uncomfortable all over, but he also felt refreshed. He finally vented the anger that had accumulated over the years.

He knew he was too impulsive today, but he didn't regret it at all. Instead, he felt that some of the things should have been said long ago.

Wuwu, elder brother doesn't cry, then he will cry for him!

The Shen family returned to silence again. Both the Shen parents' door and Shen Xie'an's door were tightly closed.

Shen Jin had already returned to his room and did not let Shen Xie'an bump into him.

He leaned against the door, staring blankly into the distance.

The sound of his cell phone vibrating brought him back to his senses little by little, and his eyes seemed to brighten.

He saw another friend request message: [The moon is very fat tonight, go to bed early.]

Shen Jin clicked "Reject" and replied: [.]

Walking to the window, he saw the blue velvet sky dotted with stars and a full moon hanging high in the sky.

It was indeed round and fat. A smile flashed across Shen Jin's lips.

Tomorrow will definitely be a nice day with clear skies.

He opened the door again and went to the kitchen to cook a pot of wontons. One bowl with green onions and dried shrimps sprinkled on it, and the other bowl with nothing at all.

He went upstairs and knocked on his brother's door, saying, "I made some midnight snacks, do you want to eat?"

Shen Xie'an was so scared that he hummed several times. After making sure that the sound was normal, he replied: "Eat!"

Elder brother should not have heard it. The sound insulation in the house is pretty good.

Shen Xie'an washed his face in the bathroom, and only went downstairs when he felt his eyes were not so red anymore.

There were two bowls of steaming wontons on the table. The heat added a layer of haziness to Shen Jin, making him look a little dreamy.

Elder brother is too good-looking. Wuwuwu

He saw the green onions and dried shrimps in the wontons. Elder brother always remembered his likes.

Even his parents may not remember it so clearly.

Shen Xie'an lowered his head, and the tears that had just been retracted were about to burst out again.

The two brothers ate wontons quietly, and the only sound in the dining room was the collision of bowls and spoons.

They didn't notice the Shen parents standing not far away and watching. After watching for a while, Shen Qing patted his wife and they slowly went upstairs.

When the two of them had almost finished eating, Shen Jin spoke up, "I plan to apply to live on campus to save time on the road and read more books."

Shen Xie'an was dazed and replied, "Okay."

He always knew that his elder brother went to school as a day student because of him.

Shen Jin told Xie Yan about his idea the next day, but he didn't expect Xie Yan to agree after just a brief consideration.

"But you have to come back on weekends and holidays," she added stiffly, "Is that okay?"

This was the first time she used a negotiating tone with her eldest son.

Shen Jin nodded.

"Okay, thank you."

Xie Yan wanted to say that there was no need to say thank you between mother and son, but the words came to her throat and she couldn't say them.

After so many years of estrangement, it can't be eliminated overnight.

Shen Jin slept late yesterday and didn't arrive at school early.

After checking the time and finding it too late to buy breakfast, he simply hung the Discipline Inspection Department's sign on his arm and hurried to the school gate.

He is one of the officers of the Student Union and is sometimes assigned tasks. For example, today he is on duty at the school gate and to catch latecomers.

Only half of the students at Nanhu live on campus, and many of them commute to school from home.

This period of time happened to be the peak time for students to arrive at school. Several Omegas saw Shen Jin standing aside. They held back their screams, and hurried away.

An Omega immediately opened the forum and typed: "The one on duty at the school gate today is Brother Jin!! Sisters, it's time to be late!! "

"You're late today, Ice God~" A senior student looked at Shen Jin teasingly.

This person is Ke Minghuai's friend and one of the few people who have discovered their relationship.

Shen Jin: "Senior, please call me by my name."

He doesn't know where this nickname came from, but every time someone says it, he feels so embarrassed that he can dig a castle out of it.

Seeing Shen Jin standing like a little poplar, with long and straight legs, the senior thought Ke Minghuai was really lucky and said, "Okay, okay, I won't joke around anymore. If A-Huai finds out, he'll beat me up again."

Shen Jin raised his eyebrows: "Brother Huai won't."

The senior thought to himself, of course he wouldn't do that in front of you.

The senior reminded him, "Remember, the higher the level of the Alpha, the more beastly they are. Never expect them to be calm when they meet their loved ones."

Shen Jin felt that his senior was overthinking, as he was not Ke Minghuai's sweetheart.

Both he and Ke Minghuai were dug a pit by their elders. On the day of their engagement, one was participating in the Mathematical Olympiad in Nanhai, and the other was in a summer camp in Shangjing, going in completely different directions.

After coming back, they were all confused.

Afterwards, Ke Minghuai said that they would serve as shields for each other and agreed on a fake engagement which would be cancelled when it is no longer needed.

They don't like each other, so there is no problem with this.

Of course, it is impossible to say this to others.

"Can you contact him, Senior?"

"He has already handed over his cell phone. It would take a lot of wits and courage to get a cell phone. Who can contact him?"

The Dean of Studies saw the senior student pulling Shen Jin and talking about something. If Shen Jin hadn't caught a few students who didn't wear school badges, he would have thought that he was not on duty at all.

Shen Jin was doing his job well, but the other one was suspected of disturbing good students.

The Dean of Studies caught the senior and scolded him: "Your student union was asked to come here to take up duty, are you here to chat?"

The senior is still a little afraid of the dean. He doesn't know if this dean has reached Alpha menopause, but his anger has increased sharply recently, and it seems that his head is about to turn into a bald spot.

He can only curse his bad luck and muddle through by laughing it off.

When the bell for morning self-study rang, the dean asked him to check carefully and asked Shen Jin to block the wall at the back door of the school.

There are often students who are late and jump over the wall to come in, so someone is needed to guard below.

Shen Jin caught three, noted their names and classes, and deducted the corresponding points.

No matter how they begged, he remained unmoved.

This group of old foxes also knew that Shen Jin was stubborn and could only give up.

Shen Jin looked at the time. It was almost time for the morning meeting, so he prepared to leave.

Suddenly, thud.

A schoolbag was thrown at his feet from the other side of the wall.

He took a look and was in no hurry to go back.

After a while, a sturdy and explosive figure appeared on the wall.

The person also noticed Shen Jin standing below.

"Yo."

Qian Kun raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

Shen Jin took out the record book and wrote the words "Class 9, Grade 2, Qian Kun". He found that the other party was looking at him with a smile. He looked so leisurely that he didn't look like he was late at all.

Shen Jin raised his eyes: "Come down."

In the sunlight, his eyes looked like pieces of cut golden glass flowing on the water.

"You can come down."

"But, can you catch?"
