Liu Han had said that the freshman would come to live in his dorm room, but Xiao Zhan never expected it would happen so fast.

When he returned to his dorm carrying the washed clothes, he found that the door was open, even though he had definitely locked it when he left half an hour ago.

He walked a few steps inside and found an unknown person standing beside an empty bed in the dorm room.

"Hey."

The young man was startled by his sudden words. He had been stooping down to tidy up his luggage, but jumped straight up and turned to look at him.

Xiao Zhan: "......"

This freshman alpha was pretty tall, nearly a head taller than him. Though he had a scared expression, his face was quite handsome, still a little boyish since he was just out of high school.

After the young man caught sight of Xiao Zhan standing at the door of the dormitory, he paused for a second and then in an instant, a very bright, sunny smile broke out.

"Xuezhang! Hello!"

The young man took a few steps forward, coming to stand in front of Xiao Zhan, and said loudly, "My name is Wang Yibo, please treat me kindly."

Standing so close, Xiao Zhan discovered that that the eyes of this alpha were brown-green, the bridge of his nose was high, his eye sockets were deep, and that overall his face contours were slightly different from the average Asian.

"Are you mixed race?"

Looking a little embarrassed, Wang Yibo answered, "Uh huh, my paternal grandpa is German."

This alpha seems pretty friendly, Xiao Zhan thought. However, he immediately thought of how the other selected him "by name" to live with and his expression hardened.

"Why do you have to live with me? Do we know each other?"

Wang Yibo didn't expect Xiao Zhan to be so direct, so he was suddenly a bit at a loss. He mumbled and stuttered, "I don't even know...... we've met before, but Xuezhang shouldn't have an impression of me......"

Xiao Zhan said in surprise, "Where did we meet?"

"When I was being bullied before, Xuezhang helped me chased those people off......"

"You? You were bullied?" It seemed that Xiao Zhan had been able to hear something hilarious, "Aren't you an alpha?"

Generally speaking, weak omegas and some betas were the targets of bullying, but this kind of alpha being bullied...... Although it was possible for someone like Xiao Zhan here, it didn't meant it was common. It could even be referred to as unimaginable. Besides, the alpha before him didn't look thin and weak.

Wang Yibo's eyes shifted. It seemed he didn't want to answer. Xiao Zhan didn't bring it up again and changed the subject, "So why do you want to live with me? Coming to be my xiaodi?"

Wang Yibo grabbed the edge of his shirt and rubbed it between his fingers, nervous sweat breaking out on his forehead. He opened his mouth to say something and immediately pursed his lips.

"......something to say?" Xiao Zhan asked, baffled. He'd never seen such an timid alpha.

"Xuezhang, I....... I......." Wang Yibo repeated it several times, and then seemed as if finally made up his mind, raising his brown-green eyes firmly to Xiao Zhan's, "I like you! Please go......go out with me!"

"Xuezhang! I like you!"

Xiao Zhan was stunned speechless.

He had never expected to be confessed to by a xuedi he'd just met.

And this was the first time he had heard such a serious confession.

For an alpha to hit on him was not unusual. After all, omegas had inherent appeal for alphas, even an omega like Xiao Zhan. It wasn't that no one wanted him, but most of those alphas weren't looking for relationships, just wanting to subdue him. Some of them even deliberately released their pheromones in an attempt to take him down. In any case, no one had ever spoken to him with such sincerity.

Words like "I like you" - no one had ever said them to him seriously.

"......just because I helped you?"

Xiao Zhan couldn't understand it at all. He had helped a lot of people younger than him, but he had never met anyone who would give their heart to him before.

Wang Yibo's courage seemed to have been spent in the confession just now, so now he panicked again, "Ah, I don't know...... Any-anyway, I just like Xuezhang......"

Xiao Zhan frowned.

Not even knowing why he liked him, what was up with this person.

Although the confession just now surprised him a little, after snapping out of it, Xiao Zhan didn't feel that the alpha in front of him with this weak character was his type.

But for the sake of the other person, he decided to still give him a chance.

"Release some pheromone."

"......eh?"

"Let me smell your pheromones. If it's strong enough, I'll consider it."

This was Xiao Zhan's greatest concession. A weak personality could be improved with training over time, but nothing could be done if the pheromone was too weak.

After hearing this, Wang Yibo stood still, motionless, who knew what he was thinking. After a long time, he mumbled, "My pheromone is very weak...... almost scentless, but I really, really like you -"

"Stop," Xiao Zhan cut off his words mercilessly, "Thank you for liking me, but what I'm looking for is an alpha with pheromones strong enough to calm my own. You are not suitable, so give up."

Wang Yibo froze, then the eagerness in his eyes disappeared a little, even the light of his eyes dimmed a bit and the original brown-green became dull.

"Okay......"

He bowed his head, pulling his tall body down, so that Xiao Zhan couldn't help but think of his big docile golden retriever when he was wronged. He reached out and rubbed his head instinctually, "So timid and obedient, no wonder others wanted to bully you."

Wang Yibo waited for Xiao Zhan to finish rubbing his head before he looked up. The depression in his expression had not faded, but he gave a soft smile because of this action, "Xuezhang, can I still live with you? I absolutely will never mess around."

Xiao Zhan thought it over, this alpha was exactly as his aunt said, totally nonthreatening, so he wasn't worried about being attacked. Even if the other student really attacked him, he should be able to take him out.

"Fine, you stay here for a while, and if you don't behave, I'll kick you out."

The corners of Wang Yibo's mouth fell again, "Don't kick me out, Xuezhang, I'll be very good......"

"I'll be watching your behavior," Xiao Zhan didn't relent.

After making a unilateral agreement, Xiao Zhan actively took on his responsibility as an upperclassman, helping Wang Yibo organize his luggage and mentioning some tips about the room. During the conversation, he learned that the principal is Wang Yibo's paternal uncle. No wonder he could use his connections to specify his dorm room.

Xiao Zhan had at first been annoyed that someone wanted to live with him, but now he didn't feel the same. Wang Yibo was just like a large pet, well-behaved, letting him do as he pleased. All the pet owner responsibilities like hygiene were even taken care of. Apart from being a little too enthusiastic, he was the ideal roommate.

Fine, let's just raise this pet.
