It was almost eight o’clock in the evening when they came out of the cinema. Tang Bai and Xie Ruheng then walked hand in hand on the street.
They couldn’t see any omegas wandering around alone at this time. When Tang Bai went out at this time in the past, he would either go out with elders like his father and grandfather in an orderly manner, or wander around with Gu Tunan, who was using their blind date as a shield, to complete a mission.
He thought of the future described in the book, where many years later omegas could wander around alone without worrying about their clothes or being afraid of being teased, molested or even raped.
Even if they were walking on the street in the middle of the night, they wouldn’t have to feel scared or uneasy.
“What are you thinking about?” Xie Ruheng asked.
Tang Bai shook his head. He pointed to the door of a bar on the street and whispered, “I haven’t been here yet.”
“Want to go in?” Xie Ruheng asked.
At this moment, a beta couple happened to open the door of the hidden bar, and for a moment the restless atmosphere inside the door overflowed.
There were lively songs and dances everywhere, where you could let off some steam and maybe even have a wonderful encounter.
“I thought about it before.” Tang Bai leaned his head on Xie Ruheng’s shoulder and held Xie Ruheng’s fingers tightly, “But you have shown me more exciting and beautiful things.”
Both the cheering and dancing in the underground arena and the entire square far exceeded his expectations.
In summer, the temperature difference between day and night was large. Xie Ruheng was worried that Tang Bai would catch a cold, so he took off his coat and put it on Tang Bai. Together, they went to the last destination of today’s date –
Pheromone Museum.
The Pheromone Museum recorded the smells of tens of thousands of pheromones and had also thoughtfully designed perfumes that betas could also smell.
Tang Bai saw several messages on the message board, such as “When will the curator be able to simulate Xie Ruheng’s pheromone perfume?”, “I will die if I can’t smell Xie Shen’s pheromones again” and “Please give me some dream material about Xie Shen”
Tang Bai unhappily took a pen and wrote: “Only Tang Bai can smell Xie Ruheng’s pheromones!”
Xie Ruheng’s mouth curved up, and he picked up a pen and wrote after messages like “I want to take a whiff of Tang Bai’s pheromones” and “Tang Bai is so sweet, his pheromones must be strawberry-flavored”: “Only Xie Ruheng can smell Tang Bai’s pheromones.”
The two childish ghosts put down their pens, held hands and then went to smell the different scents of pheromones.
“None of them smell as good as you, Brother Xie.” Tang Bai sniffed and made a fair assessment based on his conscience.
Xie Ruheng nodded in agreement. He held Tang Bai’s face, put his nose against Tang Bai’s cheek, and slowly sniffed the scent of Tang Bai.
Tang Bai felt a little itchy from being rubbed by Xie Ruheng, so he retaliated by scratching Xie Ruheng’s ticklish spot, “What are you doing?”
Xie Ruheng held down Tang Bai’s restless hands and said seriously, “Washing your nose.”
Tang Bai: “Pfft.”
Some people looked over. Tang Bai was shy about this kind of thing. When he was hesitating whether to push Xie Ruheng away, Xie Ruheng pecked his face lightly, and a hint of satisfaction was revealed in his deep voice: “It smells good.”
For a moment, Tang Bai felt that Xie Ruheng wanted to kiss more than just his face. Fortunately, Xie Ruheng restrained himself, otherwise…
Tang Bai turned around and saw the staff member coming towards him. He heard the other party excitedly asked, “Hello! Are you Tang Bai? I’m your fan, I like you very much!”
Tang Bai smiled sweetly, “Hello~”
The staff member glanced at Xie Ruheng and said, “Do you want to do a pheromone matching test? It’s free.”
Tang Bai was very curious about the compatibility between himself and Xie Ruheng. They entered the instrument under the guidance of the staff.
After waiting for a while, the test results came out.
The staff member was surprised and said: “Pheromone match is 100%!”
“You are the destined ones!”
A 100 percent pheromone match meant that this alpha and omega were destined to be together.
….
Tang Bai was in high spirits all the way out of the museum. He had originally planned to go back after visiting the Pheromone Museum, but he was so happy that he couldn’t stop and pulled Xie Ruheng to continue visiting.
“We are destined to be together!” Tang Bai said curiously, “No wonder I liked you so much the first time I saw you!”
“But we didn’t smell each other’s pheromones at that time.” Tang Bai frowned: “Isn’t it said that the destined ones will be attracted to each other only after smelling pheromones?”
Xie Ruheng said softly, “Then we are more destined than destined.”
“Even without the attraction of pheromones, I still like you.”
Tang Bai was overjoyed after hearing this. He didn’t care if anyone was looking at him. He stood on tiptoe and smacked Xie Ruheng hard, saying loudly, “Me too!”
On a brightly lit night, Tang Bai walked past the long queue at the hot pot restaurant, holding a bowl of hot soup skewers, and grabbed a lot of dolls from the claw machine with Xie Ruheng.
There were many pedestrians on the street, and some people recognized Tang Bai and Xie Ruheng, but Xie Ruheng’s oppressiveness was too strong. Passersby who wanted to chat with him hesitated for a moment, and then saw them walking past them, seemingly talking about whose house they were going to visit in the evening.
Fans and passers-by: “!!!” What are you doing visiting at home?!
“Let’s go to my house and watch the game video of the Empire guys.” Tang Bai found that Xie Ruheng held his hand very tightly, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
But when he looked up at Xie Ruheng’s profile, he couldn’t see anything. Xie Ruheng’s expression was calm and restrained. He lowered his eyes and looked at him gently, “Okay.”
When he brought Xie Ruheng home, only Grandpa Tang and Father Tang were at home. Mother Tang had gone to accompany Li Songyun.
Grandpa Tang was in the weapons research room, and Father Tang was in the study, so Tang Bai and Xie Ruheng came to the bedroom carrying a bunch of dolls.
Placing the new dolls next to a teddy bear that was as tall as a person, Tang Bai introduced to Xie Ruheng the dolls that had grown up with him.
“I like to sleep holding Jiujiu the most.” Tang Bai picked up a little fat Jiujiu that was a little faded after washing and kissed the fat Jiujiu doll.
Xie Ruheng solemnly touched the tip of the little fat bird’s wings and said, “It’s very soft.” Not only was it soft, it was also filled with the flavor of Tang Bai’s toffee pheromones.
He looked at the pile of dolls and suddenly realized that he didn’t need to build a nest when he was in his susceptible period. He just needed to dive into the pile of dolls and he would be surrounded by Tang Bai’s pheromonoes.
“This is what my grandpa made for me.” Tang Bai held out a robot doll.
“This is what my mother sewed for me.” Tang Bai touched the head of a little cat doll.
“This is what my father bought for me.” An exquisite Palulu doll that looked very expensive sat on the shelf.
“You caught these for me.” Tang Bai happily placed the ordinary plush doll that Xie Ruheng had caught for him next to Palulu.
“Brother Xie, let me show you my photo album.” Tang Bai took out three thick photo albums. He pulled Xie Ruheng to sit down on the thick cashmere carpet. The suspended star lights automatically flew to Tang Bai and Xie Ruheng, and the vast light like a galaxy illuminated the opened photos.
“Look, this is what I looked like when I was one hundred days old.” Tang Bai covered the photo of him when he was just born and didn’t want Xie Ruheng to see it.
In the full moon photo, little Tang Bai was holding a pacifier, sitting in the middle of a red cloth filled with various items, and his chubby little hands were holding a super mini starship and mecha.
“Mom said that when I grabbed the starship and the mecha model, Grandpa was very happy.”
Xie Ruheng looked at the starship and thought that it was understandable since it was filled with all kinds of shiny special metals that could attract children’s attention. “You were so cute when you were a child.”
“I won’t show you the photos of me when I was just born. My mother gave birth prematurely, and I was very small when I was born. My mother took one look at me and she felt terrible.”
“She wondered how there could be such an ugly child, and that such an ugly baby was born by her.” Tang Bai imitated Mother Tang’s tone and described it to Xie Ruheng vividly.
Xie Ruheng couldn’t help but smile.
“But my grandpa and my dad both closed their eyes and blew rainbow farts after seeing me saying I was so cute and that my eyebrows looked like grandpa’s and my eyes looked like dad’s.”
“My mom thought my eyebrows hadn’t grown much yet, so how could he say my eyebrows looked like grandpa’s? He’s bald anyway.” Tang Bai covered Xie Ruheng’s mouth, “You’re laughing too loudly!”
“Later, when I gradually became more attractive, the three of them confided in each other. It turned out that they all thought that I was too ugly when I was born but were too embarrassed to say it out loud.” Tang Bai groaned.
Xie Ruheng was somewhat curious about what the photo covered by Tang Bai looked like, but Tang Bai refused to show it to him.
“This is a photo of me on my first day at kindergarten!” Tang Bai flipped through several pages until he saw a picture of himself wearing a kindergarten uniform and carrying a small schoolbag, walking proudly into the school gate.
“At that time, my whole family was worried that I would cry when I went to school for the first time. My grandfather and father even took time off to accompany me to the kindergarten. Unexpectedly, I didn’t shed a single tear. I couldn’t wait to go in and said I wanted to see and meet new friends.” Tang Bai laughed, “They said they felt the loneliness of lonely elderly people in advance.”
“I was the teacher’s favorite child in kindergarten. I am still in contact with my kindergarten teacher. She said I was the cutest, most obedient and polite child she had ever seen!” Tang Bai said proudly.
They through the pages of the album, from Tang Bai’s first time riding a pony, “This is precious information about the early human taming of the Arabian horse”, to Tang Bai going to the farm to pet the lambs and being drowned by marshmallows, “This is the story of the desperate struggle between a human cub and a lamb.”
From kindergarten to elementary school, elementary school to junior high school, junior high school to high school, and finally to college, Tang Bai’s facial outline in the photos gradually lost its roundness and childishness, but the light in his eyes never dimmed.
In group photos, he was always the first shining star that everyone noticed.
Turning to the latest page, there were two photos on it.
One was the official photo of them holding hands with two rings complementing each other.
The other was a screenshot from the game. They were all wearing the crew uniforms of the Discovery and smiling brightly in front of the vast sea of stars.
There was a line of Tang Bai’s handwritten words on the photo: “July 1, 231st year of the star calendar, I found someone who wants to conquer the sea of stars with me~”
Xie Ruheng stared at the photo in a daze.
The long first twenty years of his life, in which he was unable to participate, were finally turned over page by page. From now on, he would not miss any important moment in Tang Bai’s life.
….
After reading the competition information of the Empire players, Xie Ruheng walked out of Tang Bai’s bedroom and saw Grandpa Tang and Father Tang who had been waiting for him in the living room for a long time.
Three alphas of different ages sat at a table. This time, their cups were filled not with hot tea, but intoxicating wine.
The three of them drank a lot.
They also talked a lot.
Finally, Grandpa Tang said to Xie Ruheng, “Tangtang is also old enough to get engaged.”
“If you win the Mecha Cup this time, you can take the trophy and get engaged to Tangtang.”
“The reward for the Mecha Cup champion is the gift I prepared for you two.”
