Many Omegas were interested, but most were deterred by Qin Chu's "very simple" approach.
In the end, only a few persisted and completed the course.
The last Omega remaining in the studio broke free, clutching the rope with a look of delighted surprise: "I really broke free! This actually worked quite well, thank you Milo!"
Qin Chu hummed in agreement and turned to pour himself a glass of water.
The weather was already quite hot, so he took off his high-necked uniform jacket and wore only an inner layer.
As he bent down, the Omega behind him, who was getting up to say goodbye, suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, Milo, the area around the gland on the back of your neck is so red."
"Are you about to go into heat?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Chu choked on a mouthful of water.
He didn't even have time to cough before he immediately reached up and touched the back of his neck, turning to ask the Omega behind him, "Heat? Is this discomfort related to your heat?"
Seeing his strong reaction, the Omega suddenly remembered that Qin Chu didn't have pheromones. He thought he'd touched a sore spot and felt a little embarrassed: "Well, um, my glands turn red when I and several other Omegas are about to go into heat. But I don't know about you..."
After seeing the Omega off, Qin Chu immediately dragged Noah out: "Quickly check if his heat cycle is about to start."
Noah scanned his body data and sighed, "Sir, you're overthinking it. You don't have any pheromones at all, so how could you possibly enter your heat cycle normally?"
Qin Chu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Military academy student dormitory.
Unlike Omegas, who are delicate, the alphas in the military academy live in six-person dorm rooms, relying entirely on pheromones to claim their territory.
Levi lay half-reclined on the bed closest to the air conditioner vent, propping one leg up to watch videos on his personal computer.
It was still those bound hands.
Her fingers were dazzlingly white, even the slightly protruding knuckles had a translucent quality. These hands were incredibly beautiful no matter what they were doing.
At the end of the video, as Alpha struggled with his fists clenched, he touched the screen with his finger, pausing the video and freezing the moment.
These hands were bound, the fingers clenched into fists, the knuckles and the tendons on the back of the hands stretched into an extremely beautiful arc, even the tendon on the inside of the wrist was taut.
The image conveys a sense of power, yet also subtly reveals an indescribable fragility.
It seemed as if the owner of these hands was imprisoned or had been forced to do something embarrassing, which was why he was struggling like this.
His Adam's apple bobbed again, and he used his broad hand, which was holding the quantum computer, to forcefully cover the screen on the bed.
With his neck resting on the railing, Levy's head was drooping below it.
He covered his eyes with his arm, trying to clear his mind with this position.
It's hopeless.
He tried to stop others from having wild thoughts about the video, but he couldn't control his own.
The personal terminal that was tossed on the bed made a "ding" sound, and the alpha, who had been half-dead, suddenly sat up in bed.
He immediately turned on his personal computer to check the message, only to find that it was just an activity message sent by the system.
No one added him on social media.
Levy irritably ran a couple of fingers through his hair and clicked into the post again.
There are already a lot of replies to the post.
He scrolled up and found that Qin Chu hadn't replied to the post where he had left his contact information.
The senior is cute, the senior is smart, and the senior is also particularly ruthless.
Levy scrolled up to the tenth floor and saw Qin Chu's reply that could drive anyone crazy.
There are no special requirements; anyone can do it.
Levi almost laughed out of anger. How could someone with such low standards not even be interested in him?
The other roommates returned to the dorm one after another after taking a shower, and started laughing and joking as soon as they entered.
"Have you seen the replies to that post? That original poster is really something."
"Is he an Omega? I want to be his brother!"
"Come on, you bro, are you some kind of bitch?"
The group entered laughing, then immediately took a step back and cursed, "Holy crap, Levi, are you crazy?!"
The entire room was filled with a dangerous and eerie smell of blood; the smell alone could make you think it was a murder scene.
The fact that someone released such strong pheromones right after taking a shower clearly indicates that they are in a terrible mood.
Listening to this group of people talk about Qin and Chu, Levi felt uneasy. He sat up in bed and asked:
"Who's going to the second floor of the restaurant tonight?"
The issue isn't going to the restaurant, but who's going to keep the appointment with the original poster.
Levy said this with a smile on his face, but he had also been smiling as he pulled people into the boxing ring last night.
"Alright, that's enough."
The dorm leader walked over and patted Levi on the shoulder. "I know you're interested in that Omega, but he's already rejected you. We're not sore losers, so don't worry about it."
Levi merely twitched the corner of his mouth, without saying a word.
Everyone in the dormitory knew that when the reverse selection rules were first announced, Levy had a one-on-one contest with every military academy student.
There was only one agreement: the losing cadet was not allowed to try to take him away.
They were all puzzled at first, wondering which popular Omega Levi had taken a liking to, and why he had gone to such lengths.
It was only later that I learned this Omega didn't have pheromones. Only when Levi was asked would he say, "No? I smell pretty sweet."
For a moment, many people thought he had a problem with his sense of smell, saying that no one would be able to compete with him this time.
Unexpectedly, this Omega ultimately rejected Levi.
The dorm leader added, "That Omega even posted on the forum to find a model. Don't make it so that he can't find a single model in the end."
He wiped his face and sighed, "Yeah, I'm not going tonight. Keep an eye on things over there, and lend a hand if anything happens."
"Okay, I won't embarrass that Omega."
The dormitory head turned and went back to his bed, glancing back at Levi before leaving. "Brother, let me tell you the truth, you haven't been behaving well lately, you've been a bit impulsive. If you break the rules again, you'll be sent straight back to military academy for punishment."
Levi nodded haphazardly, it was unclear whether he had actually listened.
The agreed-upon time arrived.
Qin Chu left the art studio ahead of time, and on the way, he glanced at the post again.
Great, it looks like quite a few people are coming.
The second round of model selection closes tomorrow. Tonight, he needs to select a military academy student and then exchange choices with others in the system.
Although he knew that the choice between the artist and the model was almost an unspoken blind date, Qin Chu felt no romantic feelings whatsoever. His mind was preoccupied with how to select a student who wasn't too stupid.
The seats on the second floor had already been booked in advance, so Qin Chu wasn't in a hurry on the way.
But when he stepped into the restaurant, he was shocked by what he saw inside.
The venue was packed.
Especially the second floor of the restaurant.
The restaurant used to be busy, but it was never as full as it is now.
The restaurant is now filled not only with a large number of military academy students, but also with many Omegas and betas, most of whom are just there to watch the excitement.
Qin Chu glanced at it casually and reminded Noah, "Take advantage of the crowd now and scan quickly."
Noah was very impressed: "Even at a time like this, you still remember this."
After leisurely strolling around the restaurant, Qin Chu waited until Noah had finished scanning before climbing the stairs to the second floor.
Although table number 15 was not full, there were four or five military academy students there, and many people were craning their necks to look around.
Qin Chu glanced at it and wanted to finish quickly and finalize the modeling deal.
He walked toward table number 15, and as he passed table number 13, his deliberately raised voices of laughter drifted over: "Hey, I heard he rejected Levi? But Levi didn't beg for an artist; on the contrary, he lost his model and had to find another one on the forum."
"It's not certain who rejected whom. Maybe Levi said he was rejected just to save face for the Omega."
It was Ross who spoke. Qin Chu glanced at him and continued walking forward.
When Qin Chu reached table number 15, he paused again.
He suddenly felt a sharp pain in the skin around the glands on the back of his neck.
Although this area has been uncomfortable for a while, it's just like being bitten by an insect; the pain goes away quickly.
But this time was different. The indescribable tingling and itching lasted for a long time and became more and more intense. Qin Chu could even feel a burning sensation on the back of his neck.
Qin Chu reached out and pressed it, his brows furrowing.
He put down what he was holding, looked at the 15 tables of military academy students and said, "I'm the one who posted the video. Wait for me a moment, I have something to do, I'll be back in a bit."
As he spoke, Qin Chu immediately looked up to find the restroom sign.
He hadn't been to the restaurant's restrooms yet, but if he remembered correctly, the restrooms were only on odd-numbered floors.
Once he made up his mind, Qin Chu immediately went up the stairs to the third floor.
There weren't many people on the third floor, so Qin Chu quickly found the restroom.
However, Qin Chu encountered the greatest challenge since coming into this world.
He stood in the corridor, looking at the six restrooms with different signs on both sides, lost in thought.
Six genders, six restrooms, seems like no problem.
But why is the sign for the restroom so obscure?
Qin Chu looked through them one by one, but still couldn't find which one the male Omega should go to. Forget about not being able to tell the difference between Alpha and Omega, he couldn't even distinguish between male and female logos designed by these art students.
These restrooms have all been specially treated, so he can't identify them by their pheromones.
Qin Chu was facing off against the doors of the several restrooms when one of the black doors opened.
The tall alpha came out of the door and was taken aback when he looked up and saw Qin Chu.
He seemed surprised to run into Qin Chu, and for a moment he was even a little flustered, but he quickly lowered his eyes and greeted him softly, "Senior."
