After Becoming the Alpha Protagonist, I Snatched the Cannon Fodder Omega

CH 10



Qiu Zhenyang spent more than three hours browsing the web in his room. His eyes were sore by the time he finally heard the sound of an aircraft landing outside the window.

Closing the terminal, he looked down through the window, and sure enough, Qiu Zhang and Qiu Haolin had returned.

Qiu Zhenyang adjusted his appearance in front of the full-length mirror, then opened the door and went downstairs.

“Hmph, you still have to get stuck in traffic on the way back for dinner, and can’t come back earlier?” Zhu Qin, who had been impatiently waiting, folded her arms and unhappily stared at her husband who just entered the door.

Admiral Qiu, who was dignified and self-disciplined in front of outsiders, was choked for a moment and said helplessly: “Wife, it’s not like you don’t know about the military. It’s already good that we can ask for leave and come back.”

Qiu Haolin also nodded. Seeing Qiu Zhenyang come downstairs, he immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile, “How is it, did you pass the test?”

Qiu Zhenyang felt very close to this brother who was five years older than him, and raised his eyebrows and said, “Naturally. I can’t shame our my family.”

“Nice job.” Qiu Haolin was also a lieutenant general outside, but he was very affectionate towards this younger brother, and punched him with a smile.

“Before leaving, dad even said that if I don’t enter the top three, I won’t be allowed to come back. How dare I relax.” As he said that, Qiu Zhenyang pouted at his father.

Qiu Zhang snorted, puffed out his chest, and said with vigor, “Being Qiu Zhang’s son, you have to be in the top three! Looking at you like this, is it possible that you took first place?”

Qiu Zhenyang immediately waved his hand. “Almost, I took second place. I’ll take the first one for you when there is another test next time.”

“Okay, I’ll remember it.”

Seeing that the three of them chatting happily, Zhu Qin was happy and pushed them to the dining room muttering; “Hurry up, hurry up. Hurry up to eat, don’t you see that Yangyang has lost a lot of weight. Let him eat more and grow some meat.”

The family of four smiled and sat down, each taking a side on the square table, and began to eat dinner.

Although the meal was still unpalatable, Qiu Zhenyang felt warm in his heart when he felt the atmosphere of his relatives.

Before he crossed over, he was just a loner, and he had long been used to loneliness. But he obtained something that he never dared dream about before. To be honest, Qiu Zhenyang is actually very grateful for this transmigration.

“That’s right, Yangyang, school will start in five days, right? Interstellar Academy stipulates that living on campus is required, and we have to arrange everything you need for accommodation in these days.” Zhu Qin remembered Qiu Zhenyang’s school while eating.

“Okay.” Qiu Zhenyang agreed casually.

Interstellar Academy actually has a semi-military management style, and is relatively strict about time regulations. In order to avoid unnecessary waste of time, students also face constraints on what is allowed, and all students must live on campus, no matter family background. Students who don’t follow the rules will be kicked out directly.

Where he lives doesn’t matter to Qiu Zhenyang. He also used to live on campus back when he was studying in his previous life.

“Don’t worry, Yangyang just came back. Let him rest for a day, and go the day after tomorrow. Remember to bring more bodyguards.” Qiu Zhang drank a little wine and thought about it carefully. After all, they have a special status, and have to be careful when walking outside.

“I know, how many times have I taken Yangyang out since he was a child? When was it not peaceful?” Zhu Qin frowned impatiently.

Qiu Haolin looked at his mother’s petulant appearance, and then at Qiu Zhenyang, and both brothers exchanged silent smiles.

After a warm dinner, Qiu Zhenyang chatted with his parents and brother in the living room for a while. Seeing that it was almost ten o’clock, they went back to their rooms to rest.

After taking a bath, Qiu Zhenyang lay relaxed on the big soft bed, looking at the ceiling above his head. He felt at ease both physically and mentally.

The original owner was born in a very good family, with the love of his parents and elder brother, and his life is really happy.

Thinking of this, Qiu Zhenyang closed his eyes contentedly and went to sleep.

The next morning, Qiu Zhang and Qiu Haolin went to the military headquarters early. The two of them are in high positions and usually stay at their posts. Although things are quite peaceful and stable, being prepared for danger is also their duty.

Qiu Zhenyang spent the whole day leisurely, drinking tea, chatting with his mother, and talking about some interesting things that happened during the test. He enjoyed the feeling of being with family.

“Yangyang, after coming back this time, you’ve become a little different.”

Qiu Zhenyang was about to get up and go upstairs after dinner, when Zhu Qin suddenly said this with a smile.

Qiu Zhenyang’s heart suddenly tensed, but his face was calm, and he pretended to be surprised. “Me? How can I be different? Is it possible that I have become more handsome?”

Zhu Qin laughed at her son, scolded him with a smile, and then shook her head. “No, it’s just that you didn’t open your heart so openly when you talked to your mother before. Or maybe it was because of your adolescence that you always seemed impatient.”

This is probably due to the difference between Qiu Zhenyang and the original body.

After all, family affection was something Qiu Zhenyang craved and couldn’t get before, but now that he finally felt the warmth, he couldn’t hide the joy in his heart.

But after hearing his mother’s words, Qiu Zhenyang felt relieved.

“Then I guess I’ve passed my adolescence now. Anyway, when I’m with mom, I’m really happy.” Qiu Zhenyang grinned and showed his white teeth. “Mom, I’ll go back to the room first to rest.”

“Go, go~” Zhu Qin looked at her son’s back with eyes full of love.

When he went out the next day, Zhu Qin really brought several bodyguards as Qiu Zhang insisted, making Qiu Zhenyang a little uncomfortable.

But he didn’t refuse. If he went out by himself, it would be fine. But since his mother went with him, it was better to be more careful.

The group strolled around for a long time, bought a lot of daily necessities, and even a new set of furniture, for the merchant to deliver to the school dormitory first. As for the dormitory, Zhu Qin had already arranged it.

Rich people generally rarely have difficulty in choosing, so their shopping trip was very fast, and ended by 3 o’clock in the afternoon.

Zhu Qin took Qiu Zhenyang to the academy to see the dormitory, asked the bodyguards to tidy up the furniture and other things, and then took Qiu Zhenyang to go home.

However, when the aircraft passed by the school gate, Qiu Zhenyang saw Ling Mu’s figure, and immediately told the driver to stop the aircraft.

“Mom, I just saw a classmate. I’ll go down and say hello. You go home first, I’ll go back by myself later.”

“Then pay attention, and be careful. I’ll let A’kui1bodyguard wait for you at the gate.” Zhu Qin warned. After seeing Qiu Zhenyang enter the campus, she asked the driver to drive back.

Following Ling Mu all the way to the principal’s office, Qiu Zhenyang hid by the open ventilated window, quietly listening to the conversation inside.

“…Ling Mu, we told the other omega students about your situation, but no one wants to live in the same room with you.” The principal sounded a little helpless. “The school does not allow you, an omega, to stay in a beta room, so you can only find another way.”

Qiu Zhenyang leaned against the door, raised his head slightly with his hands in his pockets, and listened silently.

“Principal, what if I take two beds for myself?” Ling Mu’s voice was still as cold as ever, even in the face of the principal.

The headmaster’s voice was even more helpless. “Two beds is a single room, which costs 20,000 a semester. Do you have enough savings?”

Ling Mu’s brows were tightly knitted. He really couldn’t come up with that money, let alone enough for one person’s bed.

There is not much money left from his part-time work. Not only does he have to pay for his own tuition, but also for his sister’s tuition, so there is not much left at all.

“Ling Mu, the school has verified the situation at your home and confirmed that your mother’s condition is not suitable for taking care of the children, and there are no other relatives who can help you. Although the school understands the matter of taking your sister to live with you, and is willing to make an exception, there is no way to help you with the dorm fees.” The principal also sounded troubled.

After hearing so much, Qiu Zhenyang sorted out the problem Ling Mu was facing.

After the divorce, Ling Mu, his mother and sister were kicked out of the Lin family and lived outside. The three of them lived on the money that Ling Mu earned by working. But now Ling Mu was admitted to the Interstellar Academy and needed accommodation. He was worried about leaving his sister alone outside, for fear his mother would drink and do something, so he probably applied to the school and wanted to bring his sister to live with him.

It’s just that the school allowed him to live with her sister, but another problem arose.

Qiu Zhenyang folded his arms around his chest and took a deep breath.

The voice of Ling Mu sounded again: “Principal, is there no other way?”

“In your current situation, omegas are unwilling to live with you; after all, your sister is a beta. You can’t afford the cost of a separate room, and I don’t have any other options.”

“Can I pay for one bed first? Can I owe the remaining one bed on credit for two months? After two months, I will pay it off.” Embarrassed, Ling Mu tightly clenched his hands. He knew that his request was unreasonable, but he really had no other way.

The principal sighed a long time. He really wanted to agree, but the school didn’t allow it!

“I’m really sorry, the school regulations can’t be broken.” He finally shook his head.

There are so many students across the galaxy who want to come to this school. The rules and regulations must be strictly followed, because their every move is under the attention of the people of the entire Interstellar.

Seeing Ling Mu’s eyes dim, the principal’s heart didn’t feel well.

He thought about lending Ling Mu some money himself. Anyway, as long as no one knew about it, there would be no problem. It was really difficult to see this child…

Just when the principal was about to stop talking, there was a knock on the door.

“Principal,” Qiu Zhenyang appeared at the door with a smile at the corner of his mouth. Meeting Ling Mu’s eyes, his smile became even wider, “I have a suggestion. Let classmate Ling Mu and his sister come stay with me.”

QZY: Mumu, Mumu, are you happy too see me?
