“Really.” Yu Hanzhou extended his hand toward Ming Huan, who was squatting on the ground.

The thin fingers, which were slightly smaller than those of an adult, were placed on his palm. The dragon had suddenly wilted because Ming Huan had missed out on his desired ice cream after listening to Yu Hanzhou’s words and going to the barbecue restaurant and shopping first.

He grabbed him and pulled him up, “Right, let’s go home first.”

When he entered the enclosed craft again, Ming Huan untied his thick scarf to reveal his beautiful slender neck.

Ming Huan’s neck was covered with a barrier patch, and his body smelled faintly of a bathing agent. Unexpectedly, it matched him well.

Ming Huan’s eyes were still a little red. Through the small transparent window, he gazed at the shrinking sweet store at the bottom with the start of the trolley.

When he returned home, Ming Huan was surprised to find that his bedroom had actually changed.

Although only some simple projection changes, the entire room apparently became completely different from the previous gray tone. It was now a light goose yellow with golden ginkgo leaves that were as real as if planted by nature, and they would naturally sway gently with the wind. A piece fell lightly on Ming Huan’s feet, and turned into a misty cloud.

‘So beautiful.’

‘It was no worse than Xie Shuci’s.’

Ming Huan once secretly asked Xie Shuci about the cost of decorating his small room, and Xie Shuci wagged five fingers to say that the room was 500,000.

‘Five hundred thousand, oh my God.’

‘But I have been gone from the room for only ten days, I have already reached the differentiation period, and it was done so soon.’

“When the time is urgent, only some simple changes will be made first.” Yu Hanzhou stood outside the door and asked calmly, “If you don’t like it, we can…..”

“Like it.” Another ginkgo leaf fell and Ming Huan reached out to catch it, but it touched his palm and turned into nothingness, “I like it.”

Yu Hanzhou spent a lot of money on all the flowers, he did not want to spoil the fun by saying it was too expensive.

Then, in that case, he would just enjoy it for the remaining ten days!

The night of the last day was the most comfortable night for Ming Huan to sleep since he arrived.

He slept well, but the birth clock of the law had already taken root in his body, and Ming Huan woke up on time at the end of the first day. As he was getting ready to go to school, Yu Hanzhou was sitting in the living room waiting for him.

On the table was a freshly brewed pot of black tea.

“Why don’t you take a nap?”

He’s been waking up at the same time every day for three years, and he used to get scolded for being a little late.

The AI butler took a small plate of beef cut into strips and fried with onions from the deli pantry and handed it to Ming Huan. The little dragon’s sense of smell was extremely keen during the differentiation period, and once the pantry door was opened, he immediately smelled the sweet smell of ice cream.

He was about to go to the kitchen. Yu Hanzhou was quick to grab his collar, and he swung him to the sofa, “Eat some meat first, then eat the cold food.”

‘Ahhh, it’s really ice cream!’

Ming Huan rubbed his hands and waited for the AI housekeeper to heat up the food and bring it to him. He took the fork and ate very quickly, picking up most of the bites. Yu Hanzhou was already standing at the door of the food storage cupboard. He said, “I want to eat the sand honey fruit crisp beads beans pile of black rock box….”

Yu Hanzhou’s hands held the wrong ice cream, and he shook his head and said, “Not this one, the other.”

Yu Hanzhou brought out another one.

“…. No, not that one either.”

The little dragon got a little anxious and said the name of the ice cream to the AI butler, who recognized it wisely and picked out the one that Ming Huan wanted to eat from a bunch of ice creams before it finally brought it over.

Yu Hanzhou actually spoke softly to him. Moreover, it was clear that the dessert store would not open until 10 o’clock. Yu Hanzhou actually went to get so many ice creams early in the morning.

Ming Huan scooped up a spoonful, and the top was also poured with a rich salmon berry-fruit sauce and bitter chestnut powder. It was layered with a rich layer of crushed phyllo pastry, and a spoonful would cause it to flow with a wobble. It was just like volcanic rocks and looked beautiful. He took a mouthful, and at first, it was a slightly bitter powdery taste mixed with sweet jam juice that was followed by the dense creamy and crispy taste of the aromatic phyllo after a while.

‘Too, too delicious….’

Ming Huan was almost moved to tears.

In the past, Yu Hanzhou would never buy him something like this. Even if it was a reward for him, he would only be rewarded with a limited number of mecha books, precious photon cannon weapons, or he would simply take him to a “movie”. It was beautiful to call it a movie, but in fact, it was usually a boring Empire and Federation war-related documentary. At the end, he also had to write a thousand word reflection.

Those rewards really left a dragon speechless to the point of no return.

‘But.’

‘From yesterday to today, Yu Hanzhou was really good to him.’

‘Was it because–’

‘he had differentiated into an omega?’

‘Could it be that less than a month from today to the differentiation period.’

‘Yu Hanzhou would be submissive towards him?’

“Ming Huan,” Yu Hanzhou handed him a cup of black tea and sat down on the sofa opposite him, saying, “There will be a brief meeting of the military high command tomorrow at noon, mainly for tomorrow night’s competition for the right to develop that one mining star. If possible, I’d like you to attend and describe in as much detail as possible about what happened that day. In case we are in a passive position in the court martial due to unknown factors.”

In fact, Ming Huan knew something he had to make clear.

As long as the fault for blowing up the Pierce was not all on him, he was not without explanation.

“You can be evasive, but don’t lie.” Yu Hanzhou thought of the interrogation in the study three days ago, Ming Huan asked anxiously as he gave an aggrieved squat while to clean his tears, and got angry then differentiated within an hour.

His thumb rubbed slightly on his index finger for a moment, and he added, “Because it is a full leap source, the identification section also only issued a very general report – has gone beyond their short identification of the source category. Only the specific data from the real-world consumption statistics office. So the supporting material is also very ambiguous. You’re bound to hear differently about blowing up the Pierce until clear evidence emerges that the source value is indeed much higher than the fighter value. But my judgment is the same as yours. Think those source stones are, in all probability, advanced leap materials.” Yu Hanzhou said faintly, “So three days ago I helped you. Tomorrow when you do the report, consider all issues, you directly avoid it, argue that there is no point. You only need to discourse on the details of the battlefield.”

Was Yu Hanzhou trying to cover for him, or was he afraid that Ming Huan would refuse to testify at the Military Department again due to the scare he caused last time?

Ming Huan silently drank his tea. He originally thought it wasn’t a big deal and wanted to agree directly. He planned to assist before leaving for the agricultural planet. Although it was just a momentary “plastic father-son relationship,” Yu Hanzhou was an absolute big shot. Crossing him now would be like falling flat on one’s face. It’s better to part amicably.

But upon second thought, wasn’t it a good time to make a request?

So, the little dragon who had intended to obediently agree as before, cautiously ventured to make a request.

“Can I also propose an exchange condition to you?” Ming Huan asked.

“Of course. Tell me what you want,” Yu Hanzhou replied, with the same commanding tone as before.

“I don’t want to take the Matching Test,” Ming Huan straightforwardly expressed his demand.

“Why?” Yu Hanzhou inquired.

“I just don’t want to,” Ming Huan said. “Xie Jue’s son, Xie Shuci, did a match prediction before differentiation—it was you. If both of us, after differentiation, refuse to redo the Matching Test, then in the database, he will still be your highest match. Does that matter?”

“It doesn’t,” Ming Huan couldn’t understand why Yu Hanzhou emphasized it to him. “Isn’t it good that Xie Shuci and I are highly matched? He’s very accommodating.”

“If one of you has a differentiation probability, he is an omega. And you, now also differentiated into an omega. So, the pre-match prediction would definitely be inaccurate. Without redoing a precise Matching Test, it won’t cover the previous data.”

“I just don’t want to overwrite it!”

If he doesn’t do it, he won’t have a match for a while. Xie Shuci was an omega and not allowed to be with him! As long as he doesn’t do the [match test], he unilaterally eliminates the possibility of being chosen to be engaged to someone else.

Yu Hanzhou, however, clearly misunderstood him.

He slowly sipped his black tea, “You still like Xie Shuci a lot.”

“Not really. I just don’t want to be forced to bind the engagement treaty with anyone just because of a good match.” Ming Huan said, “I’ll go to the military tomorrow to make a statement, and you help me so that I don’t have to go through the match test. Is it okay?”

Yu Hanzhou sharpened his chin to be a little more stern.

‘Help me’.

Ming Huan seldom spoke like that.

However, the feeling of being asked and relied on wasn’t bad.

Yu Hanzhou also seemed to go through some deliberation as if to test Ming Huan’s meaning, “Match detection also has a huge benefit. If you have a match of 60% or more, then it’s enough to find something more suitable to you according to the quality of the category of your highest matched pheromone. It’s less harmful to the body but has a good effect on the selection of an inhibitor and isolation paste. You are in the differentiation period for a month. When the heat period comes, you will know how important the right inhibitor is for a dragon or person with strong mental energy.”

Yu Hanzhou hadn’t had a match higher than 10%, so for four hundred years, he did his own research on inhibitors. He spent a lot of effort at the hospital, but after much debugging, the medicine was barely effective. However, there was still a huge loss of mental energy with the inhibitor.

Thus, what Yu Hanzhou meant was that the right match needed to be made.

It was a good thing, not a bad thing.

Ming Huan’s head shook like a rattle, “My mental energy is already very strong, I don’t care if an inhibitor has a negative impact on my mental energy.”

Ming Huan had imagined living comfortably on an agricultural planet, self-sufficient and completely off the grid. But that required leaving everything behind. Once differentiation was complete, things would become complicated.

Yu Hanzhou suggested some ways to deal with Ming Huan’s thoughts.

“If you just want to avoid the “mandatory mating clause” that alphas hold over tri-engagement rights, I can partially intervene in your Matching Test, intercepting notifications sent to the other party.”

“You can know who your match is and create suitable inhibitors. But they won’t know you, so they can’t exercise the three-year engagement right.”

It was a great solution, almost perfect. Ming Huan suddenly brightened.

Why didn’t you say so earlier instead of going on and on? Ming Huan knew Yu Hanzhou personally. He was used to being a decision-maker and wouldn’t always agree to requests. Even if he did, it would be without compromise.

“Alright,” Ming Huan seemed uncomfortable with this side of Yu Hanzhou. He was originally a staunch supporter of rules, and the fact that Yu Hanzhou was willing to interfere with the information system for him was surprising. Ming Huan was momentarily touched.

“Thank you. I thought that you would be the kind of person who would not be willing to use the power.” Ming Huan swallowed, and felt that Yu Hanzhou was really too good for him these last two days, “Are you being good to me because I will differentiate into an omega? In fact, don’t buy so much, you’ll go broke….”

Omegas…. were not very difficult to raise.

Ming Huan carefully counted. He had bought things just yesterday, and brought some desserts today. He spent almost more than 30,000 star coins. The room decoration projection should be at least 50,000 star coins. The ward must have also cost 50,000 star coins a day, and he lived there for three or four days.

With his speed of spending money, Yu Hanzhou would not be able to support him soon.

Although he would be leaving soon.

“I’m not that old-fashioned.” Yu Hanzhou picked up the black tea, “During your last Junior commander exam, I transferred you to the alpha dormitory, I should not have used the right to transfer you.”

Ming Huan’s heart was doused with a little emotion.

‘Oh, you still have the face to mention that thing.’

‘I have a reaction to alpha pheromone, but you threw me to three alphas!’

‘And I have to take a test! Just outrageous!’

The little dragon’s face instantly turned gray, and Yu Hanzhou slightly raised the corners of his mouth and didn’t tease him any longer.

“Moreover, I don’t want you to be trapped by the so-called marriage guidelines.” Yu Hanzhou smiled gently, “Not to mention that marriage law, which was originally set by me.”

It just so happened that in the chat with the young dragon today, there was also an article about “marriage” and “matching”.

However, he didn’t expect that Ming Huan would bring it up first.

He said that he didn’t want to do a match prediction.

He had never thought that Ming Huan could be differentiated into an omega.

That means all of the cultivation directions are actually somewhat inaccurate – perhaps he should have sensed that something was wrong. A white feathered alpha dragon did not have mood swings.

He would not like to eat ice cream, would not be caught with red eyes, would not like rabbit hair bands and piggy slippers, and would not like being obviously stuffed with so much meat –

There was no way he could not get taller than him.

He should have suspected earlier that he was actually an omega.

“There are other reasons why the feathered dragons are the most powerful race. But there are records about us being destroyed in the interstellar war a thousand years ago, due to extensive data destruction, now there are very few ancient books left. So the Federation or Empire, even if the upper echelons know about the existence of the dragons, they simply do not understand the feathered dragons. but, from the only information I have, I know that the feathered dragons have never had an omega before.

You are the first.”

Yu Hanzhou was still wearing the same beige trench coat from yesterday with a warm-looking black sweater underneath. He raised his hand to take the glasses sitting on the bridge of his nose. His eyes became more focused, so Ming Huan was a little scared.

Although the two people had on isolation stickers, Ming Huan, who was already in the differentiation period, still felt that his body was getting increasingly aware of the feelings of the dragon in front of him.

The unique pressure of the SSS-mental energy level as well as the alpha aura was like a hurricane that fanned out around Ming Huan.

“If you are casually marked by others, as your [adopter], I would be troubled.”

Ming Huan was taken aback by Yu Hanzhou’s cold words.

Yu Hanzhou’s expression at this moment was not quite the same as it was every time in the past, “Since you have passed the adult period, to the differentiation period. It also means that as a young dragon, you have one more month, then you are ready to become an adult. Then there are some things that I have to tell you as well. I have blocked all news about your differentiation. Whether it’s the dragons, or the whole interstellar. until I’m ready for other options, you must promise me not to reveal to anyone that you’re an omega. And correspondingly, like yesterday. I will try to get along with you in a gentle way, to understand the habits of omegas, to respect you as an omega. I will not force you to learn what you do not want to learn, and can promise to raise you all the time, not limited to the [custody] period. Ten years, fifty years, a hundred years, or more. I will never kick you out as long as you don’t want to leave. I’ll buy you anything you want. Anything you like, I can satisfy that too. You’re an omega, and I only have one request for you. Don’t get your heart set on just anyone. And don’t send yourself up and be marked by anyone.”

‘Eh. Yu Hanzhou…. What the hell was he talking about?’

Ming Huan was confused.
