This person's approach is very clever; offering a chance to pursue someone instead of immediately agreeing to be together makes it hard for them to refuse.
"Even if my glands are defective?" Luo Wenchuan suddenly asked.
"Yes, even yours, your what?" Alpha paused, and a hint of retreat crossed his eyes as he looked at Luo Wenchuan.
Besides secreting pheromones, glands are also closely related to the immune system. Gland defects mean that this delicate Omega is even less capable than a Beta.
No one would be willing to spend time, money, or effort to pursue an Omega who is unable to have children and is also weak and sickly.
In the Empire, only top-tier Os are treated this way.
"We might..."
"Perhaps it really isn't suitable."
A cold glint flashed in Luo Wenchuan's eyes. He smiled slightly and turned to walk towards Song Ling.
Some people's affections are so fragile; they admire the perfect person they imagine. This affection is conditional; once they discover that the person doesn't meet their expectations, the affection quickly vanishes.
The glands are defective.
Such a reason is enough to dampen the enthusiasm of most Alphas, and even that person would feel it would be a disgrace to their family.
I like you as a person, not your glands.
Only Song Ling, only Song Ling would say such a thing.
Only today did Luo Wenchuan realize how sincere and rare that seemingly naive statement was.
Luo Wenchuan retraced his steps, and the closer he got to this familiar road, the faster his heart pounded.
The smell of barbecue on the grass gradually dissipated, and the voices of people fell silent, replaced by the sweet and alluring fragrance of peach blossoms and a heart pounding in one's chest.
Luo Wenchuan quickened his pace and then saw an Alpha propping himself up on his arms and looking up at the stars in the night sky.
The moonlight was soft, falling on his long neck and outlining a clear curve.
As if sensing each other, the two looked up and their eyes met.
Song Ling smelled that aroma of wine again, strong and intoxicating.
Luo Wenchuan's eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were so red that, in Song Ling's eyes, it looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
"What's wrong, baby?"
No sooner had Song Ling finished speaking than Luo Wenchuan threw himself into her arms.
"Wen Chuan, what's wrong?"
I don't know if the person just said something unpleasant.
Luo Wenchuan buried his head in Song Ling's chest and sobbed, "Brother Ling, you can't abandon me."
"I want you. When did I ever say I didn't want you?"
This child is always anxious and prone to overthinking.
"But I'm not a top-tier Omega."
Song Ling stroked his head, comforting him, "Don't say you're not a top-tier Omega. Even if you weren't an Omega, I wouldn't abandon you."
Song Ling's response to Luo Wenchuan's self-deprecating remarks was always firm.
People need to learn to express their love. If he doesn't say something, Luo Wenchuan will always overthink things.
"Really? Even if I'm not an Omega."
Luo Wenchuan raised his head, his eyes sparkling like stars.
Song Ling couldn't help but smile, lifting his chin and saying, "Even if you're just a little kitten or a little puppy, I'll take care of you."
"You don't need to support me; I can support Brother Ling in the future."
When Luo Wenchuan spoke, there was a touch of innocent reverie unique to his age.
Song Ling felt incredibly sweet inside. This was the first time someone had ever said they wanted to take care of him, and he wasn't exactly a frugal person.
"Then you need to earn more, because I eat a lot."
"I will."
Luo Wenchuan's gaze was firm; in a short instant, he had already made all the calculations.
The smell of alcohol grew stronger and stronger in the air, and Song Ling then realized that the person in his arms was extremely hot.
"Have you been drinking?"
"No."
Upon hearing this, Song Ling was stunned for a moment.
"Maybe the person whose pheromones are perfectly compatible with yours smells like alcohol."
Zhou Yinan's words came to mind. Song Ling carefully savored the taste and then confirmed one thing.
"Baby, you may be going through differentiation."
You may be about to diverge.
Luo Wenchuan was stunned. No wonder, no wonder he's been having those kinds of thoughts lately.
This should have been a good thing, something he had been looking forward to, but when the day actually arrived, Luo Wenchuan felt a kind of expected joy.
Will Song Ling be able to tell that he is Enigma? Will this lie end completely after tonight?
When Song Ling saw the confusion in Luo Wenchuan's eyes, it turned into fear of differentiation.
Song Ling pulled Luo Wenchuan closer and whispered in his ear, "Wait for me here. I'll tell them we're going home."
"Um……"
Luo Wenchuan didn't say anything else, but took one last sniff of the unique pheromones emanating from Song Ling.
The scent of peach blossoms is not strong, but it smells exceptionally comforting.
Song Ling gently put Luo Wenchuan down and went to talk to a few people in the crowd not far away.
He had an excellent appearance and always knew how to dress. With his thin lips moving, almost no one paid much attention to the specifics of what he said. He also agreed to any requests that came his way.
Several Omegas were very interested and hesitated whether to go up and ask for their contact information.
By the time I realized what was happening, the person was already far away.
The scents of the two pheromones in the air blended together, creating a delicate and elegant peach blossom wine.
Luo Wenchuan sat alone on the cushion, looking down at his fingers. His forehead was a little hot, and his heart was pounding erratically in his chest.
This strange, burning sensation, as if my heart was about to leap out of my chest, I couldn't tell if it was due to differentiation or because of Song Ling.

He closed his eyes, feeling the longing yet unattainable pheromones, until he fell into a firm embrace.
"I'll take you back."
"good."
The person was scooped up, and this time when they came back, the little rabbit seemed to have grown quite a bit taller.
.
Outside the courtyard was Song Ling's car. The moment Luo Wenchuan opened the car door, he closed his eyes and leaned closer to Song Ling.
"I can't drive properly if you're like this."
"That's what I want."
The person buried their face in his chest, their voice muffled, as if they had been bullied.
The little rabbit was very good at being affectionate, and Song Ling was most susceptible to this, so she had no choice but to agree to his request.
During the differentiation phase, Alphas are primarily driven by aggression. Omegas, on the other hand, are most vulnerable and sensitive during the differentiation process; they may cry or even break down.
Luo Wenchuan must be feeling this way right now. Children are usually very sensitive, so he must be in even more pain right now.
The two sat in the driver's seat. Song Ling comforted Luo Wenchuan for a while, and when she felt that Luo Wenchuan's emotions had calmed down, she said softly to him, "Now I'm going to drive. You need to sit in the passenger seat."
If they don't get back soon, Luo Wenchuan might have to spend his differentiation period on the bus.
This is not a good place to protect your privacy.
Luo Wenchuan acted as if he hadn't heard Song Ling's words, whimpering in her arms for a long time before finally letting go.
He looked up at Song Ling, his wet eyes filled with an intensely suppressed possessiveness. This state had been going on for many days, but it became particularly strong on the day he saw Song Ling.
As Song Ling said, he may be about to split apart.
Enigmas possess boundless energy, surpassing even Alphas. Both marking and knot formation take significantly longer than typical AO pairings. There have been precedents of partners failing to complete knot formation due to exhaustion; Song Ling, being an Alpha, should have better stamina than an Omega.
Luo Wenchuan sat in the passenger seat, but his gaze lingered on Song Ling's handsome profile.
Song Ling glanced back, and Luo Wenchuan's clear eyes flickered slightly when they met Song Ling's gaze.
He turned to the side and helped Luo Wenchuan fasten his seatbelt. The moment his hand touched Luo Wenchuan, he clearly felt the man's body stiffen slightly.
Children are children, innocent and pure inside and out.
.
After parking the car in the residential area, Song Ling carried Luo Wenchuan upstairs in her arms;
The two stopped in front of the door. When Luo Wenchuan saw that he didn't open the door, he asked him, "Don't you have a key?"
"Yes, it's on my person."
"Where?"
"Pants pockets".
Even the door locks in this old neighborhood are so outdated. Luo Wenchuan's hand reached into his pocket, his movements slow and hesitant, and he inadvertently brushed against Song Ling's waist.
