Since Qiu Zhenyang leaked his living arrangement with an omega a few days ago, Interstellar Academyâs forum exploded. Everyone was inquiring which omega Qiu Zhenyang lived with.
Many people investigated by tracking Qiu Zhenyang. However, since only those who live in the single-family dorm area are allowed in, and because the distance between villas is relatively far, itâs easy to spot those tracking him. He threw those people behind every time, so they learned nothing in the end and everyone could only guess.
Cheng Anâan was everyoneâs primary guess, but his friend came forward to clarify that it was not him.
The second person to be guessed is naturally Ling Mu, who works in Qiu Zhenyangâs milk tea shop.
[2F] You are creating something out of nothing: Impossible, although Qiu Zhenyang is very kind to him, but the two of them donât look like theyâre in that kind of AO relationship, okay?â
[3F] Melon: When I clicked on the landlordâs post, I just drank a sip of water and sprayed it all over the screen⊠You pay for my terminal!
[4F]//Falling money from the sky//: Impossible, the new school grassâs vision canât be that bad
[5F] Little female fan of Yan God:Wait, what is the new school grass? As Yan Godâs fan, who allows you to talk nonsense! Scumbags, draw your swords!
[6F] Li Taoâs little expert: I recently ate a melon that Qiu Zhenyang had a marriage contract with that part-time worker before, and later broke off the contract in order to pursue Cheng Anâan. Given this, it seems that there is no way they can live together.
[7F] Thatâs okay: Where did you get the melon upstairs? Begging for directions!
[8F] Are you a pig: +1 for directions!
[9F] Li Taoâs little expert: here.
[10F] Peerless goddess: So who is Qiu Zhenyang living with? This old lady canât hold back anymore, she canât wait to pounceâŠcough, cough, restrained. Hey, is he lying to us to stop the peach blossoms?
[11F] You are short: Donât worry, I have already paid someone to help me follow him. Hmph, I found ten people this time. I donât believe that he can still get rid of them!
[12F]wtf: Upstairs, awesome!
[13F] Do you eat pigs: Remember to let us know when you find out~ (waves a handkerchief)
The gossip ran rampant, but Qiu Zhenyang had no idea about it.
ââ
Ling Mu found himself blocked many times before, and each time, their reason for doing so was always the same. Most of them werenât pleasing to the eye, they were pissed off by his arrogant attitude, and wanted to hit him.
This time it was new. Someone was here to cause trouble for him due to Qiu Zhenyangâs matters.
âYou and Young Master Qiu are roommates?â The blond omega in front of him glared at him with his hands on his hips, full of momentum. The jealousy in his eyes seemed about to materialize.
Ling Mu looked down at him by taking advantage of his height and was too lazy to speak.
Still Young aster Qiu? What are these omegas thinking of day in and day out?
âAre you dumb? Do you know how to be polite? Iâm talking to you!â Ize, a young master with a wealthy background, usually relied on his familyâs wealth and own beauty to run arrogant in the academy. But this time, he faced Ling Mu, who was a hard nail.
This time Ling Mu reacted, snorting contemptuously.
âYou!â
Stomping fiercely with gritted teeth, Ize held his breath for a long moment. After all, him seeking out Ling Mu wasnât to pick a fight with him.
After he figured it out, he said in a tone of contempt, as if he was doling out charity: âYou share a dormitory with Young Master Qiu now, right? Oh, I know youâre poor, and are holding on to him for money. How about this, Iâll give you 100,000, and my single-family villa, and youâll move out for me today.â
After saying that, as if certain that Ling Mu would not refuse, Ize lowered his head and clicked the payment app on his terminal.
âIâll give you the money,â He pulled up the transfer interface in front of Ling Mu, but the other party didnât move. Ize stared at Ling Mu impatiently, âCan you hurry up? I have to organize my things and move them over there!â
Ling Mu squinted at Izeâs words, making the scar on his brow protrude a little, which made him seem even gloomier. âF*ck your moving? What kind of sh*t are you?â
Ize was stunned: âYou, youâre scolding me!â
âYou deserve a damn scolding.â Ling Mu gave him a cold look, then turned and left.
âStop for me! I warn you, if you donât give me your dorm today, Iâll see how you survive in this school! I, Ize, am not vegetarian!â Ize threatened, insisting that Ling Mu move today!
But the warning was useless, Ling Mu didnât stop.
Annoyed, he quickly ran forward and grabbed Ling Muâs arm. âStop for me, canât you hear me?â
Ling Mu felt sick from the unfamiliar touch on his hand. Turning around suddenly, he threw the hand away, growling in disgust, âGo away! Donât touch me!â
âAh!â
Ling Muâs movements were too sudden, so the moment he pulled back his hand, Ize lost his footing and fell miserably to the ground. The pampered and raised Izeâs eyes suddenly turned red, and he burst out crying. âYou pushed me! Bastard! Go to hell!â
This shout was like a demonic sound, causing Ling Muâs face to turn even darker. âYouâre weak so youâre right?â
âIâm an omega! Whatâs wrong with me? You think everyone is a freak like you?!â
âWhat about omegas? Although omegas are born weak, as long as you want to do it, itâs possible. You can keep your body strong by exercising. No one will be weak their whole life.â Ling Mu frowned and gave him a contemptuous look, looking down at him.
Everyone can choose their own path. Although an omegaâs physique is considered weak, there are many omegas who are unwilling and unreconciled, so they strengthened themselves \through various methods.
Ling Muâs height and physique werenât better than other omegas at the beginning either. But because he admired his father who was a soldier since he was a child, and exercised regularly, he became like this. He has always been proud of this, and will not care about other peopleâs strange glances because of it.
âYouâre ugly, no matter how much you quibble, you canât change this fact! I really donât know how Young Master Qiu can live with you. A person like you should sleep in a garbage heap and live trampled by others, unable to raise their heads!â Ize, who was too angry, could only think of grinding the person in front of him into dust!
Obviously uglier than him, obviously poorer than him, what qualifications does he have to pretend to be aloof and despise him! He will definitely destroy this Ling Mu!
âCrazy.â Compared to Izeâs madness, Ling Mu only thought that he was a fool. He rolled his eyes and left.
If he stays with this idiot any longer, he will go crazy.
Itâs all Qiu Zhenyangâs fault. Whyâd he have to provoke so many omegas and rotten things!
Ling Mu didnât tell Qiu Zhenyang about this, because he didnât take it to heart at all. And Ize wanted to save face, so didnât dare to tell others such a shameful thing.
A month later, the operation of the Yaoyao Milk Tea Shop was on the right track. With the food delivery robots, Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu donât have to be so busy. Unless the guests have something and call them over, they usually just sit at the front desk and watch.
What surprised Qiu Zhenyang was that because the reputation of the milk tea shop gradually increased, many businessmen outside obtained his terminal number, trying to contact him to cooperate and open shops outside.
He simply rejected all of these, directly adjusting his terminal to reject messages and friend requests from strangers.
If he wanted to go into the restaurant industry, he could definitely do it with the strength of the Qiu family. But he wasnât interested in this. He planned to give the recipe to his grandmother when the semester is over. After all, sheâs the head of the First Consortium, and can execute such an operation better than him.
He wanted to make that mecha game more instead.
His obsession with this game is actually all for Ling Mu. There are very strict regulations around mechas, so apart from teaching purposes, people are generally not allowed to use mechas. Going to planets outside Capital Star where mechas can be used is extremely dangerous, so apart from virtual games, there really isnât any way to provide Ling Mu exposure to mechas and the thrill of mecha combat.
Qiu Zhenyang already has some ideas in mind, and was waiting for the right timing.
But when it comes to mechas, the most anticipated is the practical class on Friday.
The practical course is the only course that one can really drive mechas, so almost all mecha enthusiasts have chosen this course. Due to the large number of students it was held in a special training building which had eight floors and two basements.
The mechas in the basement are used for teaching. When theyâre needed, they are brought up by elevator. The lower four floors are where students in each grade are taught by instructors, and the upper four floors are where students fight independently.
âWe spent all last month discussing manipulation, etc., but this time I can finally touch a real mecha! I want to 1 vs 10!â Yuan Chenyu excitedly looked at the mecha below and clenched his fists excitedly.
This guy is not very interested in mecha knowledge, but he is very interested in driving mechas, so he also chose this class. Zhuo Hang was not so interested, but he chose this class to be with his friends, and yawned boredly at the side.
Raising his eyebrows, Qiu Zhenyang glanced at Yuan Chenyu, and moved closer to Ling Mu in disgust.
âIâve introduced the process for operating mechas in class before. Today, everyone will have a chance to try it out. These are all mechas for teaching, and there is no danger. However, you should pay attention when operating not to move the mecha too much, as itâs easy to tilt and fall.â The teacher explained in detail, and finally let people board once he finished speaking.
âLing Mu, come with me later.â Qiu Zhenyang hooked Ling Muâs finger in the crowd and whispered.
Ling Mu raised his eyebrows: âWhy?â
âMy mecha operation is pretty good. If you have any problems, I can help you solve it right away!â Qiu Zhenyang blinked, willing to âdegenerateâ and become a tool man!
Ling Mu looked at him up and down suspiciously. Although he knew that Qiu Zhenyang was from a Legion family and had a certain understanding of mechas, he heard that this person didnât like mechas before. It still remains to be seen how capable he truly is.
However, Ling Mu did not refuse. Qiu Zhenyang walked with Ling Mu happily and found two mechas next to each other.
The appearance of the inseparable pair made a person not far away gnash his teeth with hatred, and loathing flashed in his eyes. Without saying a word, Lin Nuo found a mecha and went in, sat in the cockpit and hammered the console hard.
In the past month, Lin Nuo didnât say a word to Ling Mu because of Qiu Zhenyangâs attitude. Week after week, he watched as Ling Mu, who was thin because he could only drink nutrients, become stronger, and gain flesh on his cheeks. The lines on his gloomy and sullen face even became a little handsome, making it obvious he was getting better day by day.
âLing Mu, what means did you use to make Qiu Zhenyang treat you like this?â Lin Nuo was about to go crazy with hatred. That Ling Mu who he never placed in his eyes! God knows how Qiu Zhenyang mocked and ridiculed Ling Mu after he went to the Lin family to break off their engagement. But now, heâs just slapping them in the face!
His eyes fell on the start button of the mecha, Lin Nuo clenched his fists and squeezed out a sentence from his teeth: âTch, see how long you can be arrogant!â
QZY⊠youâre already a toolman.
Degenerating further means youâre a stupid toolman.
