āRuan Tang, come with me, although I canāt give you anything now, butā¦ā¦but I swear, Iāll be good to you in the futureā¦ā¦ā
The young Alpha looked at the Omega in front of him, he was so tense that saying one more word was nerve wracking, and even speaking these words seemed to have taken great courage.
He didnāt even dare to look at the Omega.
The Omega sitting opposite him was undoubtedly a beauty recognized in the eyes of the worldā¦
His skin was fair, his figure thin, the facial features even more noble and handsome. His temperament outstandingly cool and clear but unforgettable at first sight; the soul exceedingly alluring.
The strange sense of disobedience created his incomparable charm.
But at this moment, the beauty named Ruan Tang frowned slightly after listening to the words of the young Alpha, he was surprised, āGo with you? Lu Yang, are you kidding?ā
Ruan Tang never thought that this kind of plot similar to that of a famous TV series, where an omega was asked to elope by a poor boy, would happen to him and that the other party who offered the invitation was Lu Yang.
The junior in this research institute who he had a decent relationship with.
āRuan Tangā¦ā¦Iāve heard about your marriage with that person, so long as you nod your head, no matter what price I pay, even if itās my life, Iāll take you to the ends of the earth, somewhere the royal family and government canāt find usā¦ā Hearing Ruan Tangās voice, Lu Yangās tone became more and more excited.
He seemed to regard himself as Ruan Tangās savior, the only person in the world who could rescue Ruan Tang.
Ruan Tang looked at the young Alpha who was completely immersed in his own story. Finally, he couldnāt help sighing and coldly interrupted him, āLu Yang, I donāt know what kind of misunderstanding you have made, and where you heard these kinds of thingsā¦ā
āBut I must tell you that, while Iām grateful for your kindness towards me, I donāt feel the same way about you. Therefore I will not and cannot go with you.ā
āYou should get rid of these feelings. Todayās words, Iāll pretend as if you havenāt said them and I havenāt heard them. We will not be in contact again.ā After his voice fell, Ruan Tangās fair hand immediately put down the cup in his hand, got up without hesitation, turned around and left
Looking at Ruan Tangās back, Lu Yangās mood in his eyes changed again and again. In the end, his hand tightly clenched into a fist. He reluctantly looked at Ruan Tangās figure. He could hardly suppress his grief and anger, and asked, āWhy? Are you really as they say, a greedy and vain Omega who hates the poor and loves the rich? ā
āFor the sake of wealth and status you would rather marry Duke Austin, than leave with me?ā
He never believed those rumors about Ruan Tang before. Ruan Tang was so beautiful and cold. Even though he was not good tempered, how could he be the legendary unscrupulous black lotus outsiders spoke of, who wanted to climb up using any means necessary?
But now, Ruan Tangās rejection has caused Lu Yang to have a slight change of heart.
After all, Duke Austin is known to allā¦It is obvious what kind of choice a normal person would have made between him and Austin, if not for the sake of power.
But Ruan Tang made the opposite choice of what the rest of the world would choose, if not for power than for what?
This omega was as cold and heartless as the rumors said.
āI donāt think itās necessary for me to explain my personal affairs to you.ā As for Lu Yangās narrow determination, Ruan Tang was unable to make any complaints about it. He just looked back at him and turned away. āAs for what you think about it, just believe what you want.ā
Over the years, many prejudices and misunderstandings have been put on him by the world. Ruan Tang has explained many times, but the more explanations he gives, the more no one believes it.
He gradually became too lazy to explain
Lu Yang looked at Ruan Tangās distant figure with unwillingness, but not far away, a beta came forward, and coolly began to speak.
He was a colleague of Ruan Tang and Lu Yang at the Research Institute.
āLook, what did I tell you? Ruan Tang canāt go with you! An Omega like him doesnāt care about sincerity and feelings at all. He only cares about power and status. ā
āHe is the number one beauty of the Emperor Star but also the number one black lotus1Ā of the Emperor Star.ā
āYou were only deceived by his appearance. He is not as good as you think. You canāt brood over an Omega such as him like thatā¦ ā
Lu Yang listened to his colleagueās words, and his mouth moved slightly. However, he did not defend Ruan Tang or find excuses for him as he did before.
Thereās no smoke without fire2.
Perhaps, the rumors he had heard about Ruan Tang in the past were true
ā¦ā¦
āFifth young master, the master invites you to his study.ā Ruan Tang had just returned home, and the housekeeper of the Ruan family came to him to convey the masterās orders.
Ruan Tang had been prepared for a long time and immediately responded in a low voice, āAlright, I understand.ā
Ruan Tang was born in the Ruan family, one of the most prominent families in the Orpheus3Ā Empire.
Although their family had been in decline, because of the great military achievements made by Ruan Tangās father, Marshal Ruan Ming. The Ruan family did not decline for decades, and soon returned to its former glory.
Ruan Tang is the youngest son of Ruan Mingās first wife, and he is also an extremely precious Omega. Even if Ruan Ming himself is a charming stud; having numerous lovers and illegitimate children, with his mother, brothers and sistersā protection, he should have been the stars holding the moon4, born the proud son of heaven5.
It seems as if this reincarnation6Ā has exhausted all of Ruan Tangās good fortune, he has had bad luck for as long as he could remember.
First, his eldest brother, the successor of the family, was seriously injured in a battle and became a vegetative man. So far, he is still in a coma. Then, his Omega sister, the eldest daughter, was hurt by love and went crazy. His mother was also stimulated, and she even became sick and muddled all day long.
Ruan Ming was very lucky7, and he was never a dedicated and affectionate Alpha.
After the first wife was left in a trance, he quickly applied to terminate the marriage relationship with Ruan Tangās mother on the grounds that they could not preside over the hosting in the mansion because the first wife was in a dazed state.
And he chose one of his lovers, who had several children, as the new wife and welcomed her through the door.
With the arrival of the new wife and several illegitimate children who became legitimate, Ruan Tangās status as the youngest child left behind by his original spouse became awkward.
He was neither Ruan Mingās first child nor his favorite child.
In this cold big family, he had to struggle for survival alone, helpless without the protection of his mother and siblings
Although Ruan Ming did not mistreat the children of his original partner, he did not treat Ruan Tang very well.
In particular, after Ruan Tang failed to get married several times, and he repeatedly fought with Ruan Mingās favorite son, Ruan Xi, the relationship between father and son dropped to a freezing point.
This time, were it not forā¦
Ruan Ming would not have taken the initiative to talk to Ruan Tang.
āI think you have heard about the 95% of your pheromone match with Duke Austin, and the royal familyās intention to marry our family and choose you as duchess.ā Ruan Mingās index finger lightly tapped the table top and looked at Ruan Tang carelessly.
He is an ambitious Alpha, from a son of a fallen family to an imperial marshal who revived his family. If his life was written as a novel, it would be a very popular Jack Sue8Ā novel.
He has more than 20 children in this life, including 5 Omega children.
Both illegitimate and legitimate children, including the least favored Ruan Tang, were all squeezed in his hands and cultivated as marriage tools to exchange in order to strengthen the family and interests.
Ruan Tang is his least favorite child, but thereās no denyingć¼ć¼
Once upon a time, among all his Omega children, Ruan Ming had the most expectations for him.
There is no reason other than Ruan Tang not only being the best looking one amongst his children, but also having a very pure Omega gene, and its matching degree with any high-level Alpha is very high, more than 90%.
Even if Ruan Ming doesnāt like him anymore, he had to admit that his son was a good marriage tool.
He doesnāt want to acknowledge it, but Ruan Tang has excellent qualifications on all aspects, he doesnāt know why he feels disappointedā¦9
~~~
From objects of marriage contracts to the objects of marriage negotiations, everyone who has come into contact with him for a period of time does not like him, and instead turn to Ruan Xi, Ruan Mingās other omega son, who is inferior to Ruan Tang in terms of qualifications and appearanceā¦
Such things happened again and again.
This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org
Ruan Tangās reputation kept getting worse and worse. Ruan Ming almost felt as if this son was going to be ruined while in his hands, he didnāt expect a new opportunity to come so soonā¦
Only then did Ruan Ming have some thoughts of breaking the ice with this son.
āYouāve fought such a big battle10Ā at Emperor Star. Iām afraid if I said I hadnāt heard of it, you wouldnāt believe it.ā Ruan Tang walked up to and indifferently looked at his fatherās eyes.
Ruan Ming looked at Ruan Tang coldly and ordered in a uninterested tone, āSince youāve heard about it, I wonāt talk nonsense anymoreā¦Her Majesty, the Empress is very fond of you, and Duke Austin has also agreed to the marriage.ā
āThe wedding is scheduled to be in two weeks. Make sure youāre ready to attend your wedding on time.ā He said in a low voice.
As the sole head of the family, he had no desire to discuss with Ruan Tang.
āDuke Austinā¦ā Ruan Tang repeated the name, looked at Ruan Ming coldly and immediately chuckled sarcastically, āThe famous blue beard11Ā Duke of the Empire, countless Omega have been scared to death by him. For the sake of profit, you have chosen such a marriage partner for your own son. Father, you are really cruel.ā
He knew Ruan Ming didnāt care about him, but he didnāt think he was this merciless.
āDuke Austin is the eldest son of the empress. Although his legs are disabled and his appearance is flawedā¦but I donāt think thereās anything wrong that makes him unworthy of you.ā Ruan Ming frowned impatiently and looked at Ruan Tang discontentedly.
Ruan Tang listened to his words, and then laughed mockingly, āHaha.ā
Sure enough, he shouldnāt have any unrealistic expectations for creatures like Alphasā¦
As a partner, even if his legs are disabled and his appearance completely ruined, so long as his character passes, in Ruan Tangās eyes, it is not a defect at allā¦ but this Duke Austinā¦
It is true that he is the eldest son of the Empress, but because of an accident when he was ten years old, he became disabled from both legs with a disfigured appearance. After that, his temperament also changed drastically, becoming dark and violent.
Among the various rumors, it is said that he is a total psychopath12, and has an abnormal hobby of torturing people and animalsā¦
It is said, that in order to cover up his special hobbies, the Emperor handed over the Imperial Torture Department to him.
With such a power, the Duke became more and more presumptuous and restored the torture of ancient timesā¦some of the corrupt officials and death penalty criminals who fell into his hands were skinned alive by him, and others had their brains, hearts, and livers cut outā¦none of their corpses were left wholeā¦itās so perverted and heinous to the point of making oneās hair stand on end.
Every year, human rights activists complain about him, privately calling him the royal familyās mad dog.
That is to say, none of his methods are used on ordinary people, so thereās no way that people can blame or convict him of a crime.
There are countless legends about him in the whole Empire Star. It is said that in his Dukeās residence, that except for robots, none of the people serving there are abled, they are all disabledā¦ Even if a normal person wants to work in his residence, they must first become disabledā¦
Itās also rumored that there are countless ferocious birds and beast in his mansion for him to torture and abuse.
In previous years, the Empress tried to push countless people to his side, however even the Omega he married were scared to death by him.
Ruan Ming can seriously boast about someone who is universally acknowledged as a lunatic and even push his own son into his mouth13.
Ruan Tang really wanted to laugh.ć
His father really didnāt care about his life or death at all.
