“Could it be… that night… was real…?” Lu Yao shook his head in disbelief.

He had always thought the passion of that night was just a dream.

In that dream, his brother suddenly went into heat, even actively threw himself into Lu Yao’s arms and responded eagerly to his kisses. All Lu Yao could remember was Ji Jin’s deep, ragged breathing, damp hair, and the whole room filled with the scent of strawberries.

Could that night really have been real?

Three years ago, the IKW team won the spring championship. The whole club went out to celebrate the night after the victory.

Lu Yao was genuinely happy for his brother that night, so when others pushed drinks on him, he didn’t refuse. His tolerance wasn’t great—he got tipsy quickly and went out to the restroom.

Coming back, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance of strawberries—the scent of an Omega in heat!

His head was fuzzy and he didn’t think much, only that the smell was pleasant and oddly like his brother’s.

Following the scent, he found himself upstairs at a hotel room.

Ji Jin had run away from home early, still knew little about being an Omega, and used suppressants haphazardly. This time, thinking his heat had just passed, he let his guard down. But with so many Alphas at the hotel, he was overwhelmed by multiple pheromones and unexpectedly went into heat early.

At the celebration, everyone was Alpha, even Yu Huanhuan, the only female, was an Alpha. He absolutely couldn’t approach anyone. Without suppressants on him, he opened a hotel room immediately once symptoms appeared.

He hadn’t shut the door properly—and that’s how Lu Yao caught him.

Ji Jin was huddled inside, trying to hold on until Ke Yu brought suppressants—but instead, a drunk Lu Yao stumbled in.

Young Alpha’s pheromones were strong and intoxicating. Ji Jin, barely able to resist, saw it was Lu Yao who had come in… and finally gave in.

Lu Yao had just turned eighteen, inexperienced in everything. If it hadn’t been for his heat, he surely would have gotten hurt.

The reckless young Alpha was merciless, and Ji Jin felt like he almost died on that bed.

They spent the entire night together. Ji Jin was so exhausted he couldn’t lift a finger, but the Alpha on top never let up.

Eventually Ji Jin passed out. When he woke up, Lu Yao was still asleep. He struggled to take the suppressants Ke Yu had left at the door and tidied the room, spraying several bottles of pheromone neutralizer until no scent remained, then quietly left.

Later, Lu Yao was probably picked up by his youth training camp teammates.

“Ahem… you were the one who blacked out and denied it the next morning, not me,” Ji Jin immediately shifted all blame away.

At first, Ji Jin didn’t even realize Lu Yao had blacked out; he thought Lu Yao just didn’t want to take responsibility. He didn’t want Lu Yao to either, so he went along with it—as mutual help.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xingxing came from that one night.

Later Ji Jin realized Lu Yao truly had no memory of that night. But with Ji Xingxing, Ji Jin didn’t want to be a burden and, pushed out by the team management, left quietly.

“You should have told me, brother,” Lu Yao whispered, pressing wet kisses along Ji Jin’s neck and shoulder. His eyes were full of tenderness and happiness.

Though he controlled his emotions, the joy in his voice was unmistakable; his lips twitched involuntarily into a smile.

At that time, Ji Jin didn’t know Lu Yao came from a wealthy family. He thought Lu Yao was just a poor kid and feared being a burden or holding Lu Yao back.

Besides, back then only one of them could stay, and Ji Jin wanted Lu Yao to remain.

Lu Yao suddenly understood and stopped pressing further. Instead, he pulled Ji Jin tightly into his arms and softly said, “Brother… you can’t leave anymore.”

“No leaving. I’ll be your high-class lady—carrying kids in one arm, dogs in the other, jade bracelets on my wrists, golden chains around my neck,” Ji Jin joked.

Lu Yao pictured the scene and laughed out loud. “If only I could chain you with those gold chains, that’d be perfect.”

The conversation suddenly took a risqué turn, and Lu Yao’s gaze became less innocent.

Ji Jin felt the pheromone levels around them shift. He looked at Lu Yao and instinctively tried to back away.

But Lu Yao had already sealed off all escape routes. He brushed Ji Jin’s cheek softly and said, “I blacked out that night and remember nothing. Brother, please tell me… what really happened that night?”

Ji Jin was startled. Aside from the obvious, what else was there to say? The team’s joint training wasn’t over yet. If he didn’t go back, MOE and LPF would all know what ‘inappropriate’ things he and Lu Yao got up to.

But Omega power was hard to resist against Alpha’s moves. Half pushed, half willing, Ji Jin reluctantly went over the events of that night again with Lu Yao.

…

…

…

When Ji Jin came out of the lounge, his whole body smelled of plum wine from the inside out, his legs felt weak, and his eyes were blank.

In the end, Ji Jin still couldn’t catch up with the joint training match between MOE and the LPF team.

That day, IKW’s review session also failed to progress as planned.

As soon as the break was over, the playoffs immediately began.

Eight teams were eliminated during the regular season, leaving eight teams to compete in the playoffs. Compared to the regular season, the playoffs were more difficult. Although it was still best-of-three (BO3), each game could be the key to entering the finals, so no team slackened off.

In the first match of the playoffs, MOE ran into the IKW team again and lost once more.

However, there was slight progress this time: MOE seized a loophole and barely won one game, which was enough to boost morale.

Actually, losing was quite normal. MOE had performed well during the regular season, but it wasn’t yet time for them to challenge IKW. Opinions in the esports community were mixed, and no one believed they could defeat IKW.

Players who supported Ji Jin and the MOE team were quite optimistic about MOE’s potential, especially about Ji Jin’s gameplay. After so many matches, Ji Jin often showed godlike or clutch moves. Also, Cheng Pian had flashy and dazzling skills and frequently created exciting moments with Ji Jin’s assistance.

Players who disliked or did not support MOE constantly mocked them. Many attacked Ji Jin wildly because he was an Omega, claiming Omegas didn’t deserve to play games and saying that if they put an Alpha in the sensitive period in the next match, MOE would have no chance.

There was also a group of devoted haters who fiercely ridiculed MOE and Ji Jin every time they lost, sometimes pushing “Ji Jin lost again” to trending topics. But Ji Jin didn’t care much, and neither did MOE.

What bothered Ji Jin somewhat was that not long after the match ended, his Weibo alternate account gave him a “special attention” notification.

Ji Jin had always used his main Weibo account; he had no secrets and nothing to hide. But after learning about Lu Yao’s alternate account @Ji Jin’s Head-Patting Recommendation Squad, Ji Jin registered a secondary account to follow it specially, wanting to see what it usually posted.

He took out his phone and glanced at it, nearly wanting to grab a knife and go chop Lu Yao.

@Ji Jin’s Head-Patting Recommendation Squad posted: “Look at this God Ji, so white and tender, investing in him won’t lose out, follow him!!!”

This Weibo post included a clip video. Usually, this account edited highlight reels of Ji Jin’s matches — exciting clips with some commentary by the author. But this time, the clip wasn’t about the game; it was about Ji Jin playing the game.

The game’s quiet room was equipped with cameras and microphones, and footage was often released to help players understand strategies. There were many close-ups of players’ operations and post-match interviews. The clip edited by this account was a sexy Omega video, paired with a seductive and tense background music.

Slender, pale fingers flew swiftly across the keyboard like beautiful butterflies dancing on it. The next moment, he stood on the podium, his thin body clad in an oversized team jersey, revealing a pale neck and collarbone.

Every frame could be made into wallpaper or a risqué poster, making hearts itch.

“Alright, Comrade Lu,” Ji Jin sneered inwardly, thinking about how to deal with Lu Yao.

But within five minutes of posting, the Weibo post was deleted. When reposted, it contained the same text but replaced the video with a normal match interview clip, mainly showing Ji Jin looking white, bright, obedient, cute, and likable among a group of Alphas.

Shortly after, another post appeared, explaining that the wrong clip was posted by mistake.

This immediately stirred the netizens—

Netizen A: “What a god-tier editor! Editing God Ji’s sexy video behind our backs! No deleting! No deleting! Hand over God Ji’s naughty video!”

Netizen B: “I hadn’t thought about this before, but now looking at God Ji, he really is an Omega. This video is amazing! Slurp slurp slurp!”

Netizen C: “What are you even talking about? What sexy video?”

Netizen D: “Too late, nothing left! Wuwu I have a friend who’s about to lose it and wants to see God Ji’s sexy video! Please, big shots, share the resource! Please, please! My xx cloud storage is…”

Netizen E: “Wuwu God Ji is just too cute! I like it, I like it, more content please, don’t delete!”

Netizen F: “Why couldn’t I download the video earlier! Anyone recorded the screen? Anyone recorded the screen?”

At first, Ji Jin thought the problem wasn’t serious, but after this incident, he felt the issue was very big. If you want everyone to see something, the best way is to… forbid everyone from seeing it.

Because of curiosity, almost everyone in the esports circle tried to find resources to watch the video.

At that moment, Lu Yao, who hurriedly replaced the video, sneezed several times in a row, patted his chest, and relaxed thinking: “Luckily, brother doesn’t know this Weibo account is me, otherwise…”

However, what he didn’t know was that Ji Jin had found out immediately and had already seen the original video.

 

Author’s Note:

Click! Me! Just! To! See! God Ji’s! Sexy! Video!

Lu Yao: I was just having fun editing a spicy video for myself and accidentally posted it!!! What do I do now?!

God Ji: Anyone know a good neutering clinic? I’m going to castrate Lu Yao. Permanently.
