Ah, life is harsh.

But thinking of the long string of numbers in his monthly paycheck, Xu You felt he could endure a little longer.

He took a pair of noise-canceling headphones from his bag and put them on. Then, summoning his resolve, he closed his eyes and reached out to turn on the stereo.

In the next moment,

a rap song with a powerful beat exploded inside the car like thunder.

It was even one of Xie Sisheng’s earlier underground rapper works, from the time when his personal style was most distinctive—vocals bold and rebellious, with a continuous bass sliding that made the entire cabin seem to vibrate.

Xie Sisheng himself was now fully awake.

Rubbing his ear numb from the vibration, he looked toward the front seat, only to see the two still sound asleep, utterly deep in slumber.

“……”

At the next turn, as the sun slowly rose, sunlight poured into the car, with a beam falling directly on Song Yao’an’s eyelids. His lashes fluttered, and he opened his eyes slightly.

In fact, he hadn’t really been asleep; he just wanted to see how Chi Xun would react if he leaned against him like this.

Unexpectedly, the boy yawned slowly and, like him, closed his eyes again.

Sunlight fell on his nose as well, and Song Yao’an heard his steady, even breathing.

For the first time, Song Yao’an doubted his own charm.

Having grown up with outstanding looks and an easygoing personality, he had long enjoyed preferential treatment.

Among their six-person group, Xie Sisheng was a spoiled young master, Si Heng was too hard to approach, Lin Zhaoyi was almost invisible, Ze Fei’er, though handsome and gentlemanly, was rumored to have dated eight hundred girlfriends, enough to intimidate anyone.

As for the older brother, most people couldn’t even tell him apart from the brother.

Although S-level Alphas forcibly suppress their sensitivity periods, if they truly come into heat and have an Omega partner they want to mark, their behavior can be even more brutal than ordinary Alphas, with a higher likelihood of sexual addiction.

There had even been several severe cases in the federation where S-level Alphas had imprisoned their partners for long periods.

Therefore, compared to the rich, lingering scent of oak hazelnut, Omegas preferred partners whose pheromones smelled like coconut milk—non-aggressive and gentle.

Yet even safe pheromones did not guarantee a person’s safety.

Song Yao’an shielded the light that fell on his and Chi Xun’s faces with his hand, slightly turning his head to sniff the boy’s scent.

The pheromones he had previously left had completely dissipated.

Naturally, since they were only infused in the room and not into the other’s glands.

Song Yao’an looked at the back of Chi Xun’s neck, trying to discern what exactly had triggered his sensitivity before.

Quietly, he leaned closer, moving from the shoulder to the nape, where he detected a faint pheromone scent near the boy’s collar.

He reached out and adjusted the boy’s collar, which had slipped to theI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
