[BL] Between an Alpha and Omega

H: Priorities

AN: The chapter had its own story but I got it done! Yay~

*****

Coming into school the next day was an event in itself.

In that, it wasn't possible to do so.

There were dozens of parents walking in to voice their grievances and various news crew's milling about, hungry for the story. Whatever had occurred the day before was quite an event.

The trio, despite being separated, had been met with the same 7 words whenever they spoke to anyone from school.

"Did you hear about what happened yesterday?"

Depending on who was asked, the story changed as no one really saw what happened.

Some say that a gang of thugs showed up at the school gates to challenge Chen Guiren to a fight.

Some said that it was actually a gaggle of men and women who had apparently come to confront the man who they were all having an affair with, including a few teachers.

Others claimed a fight broke out between a bunch of adults but the motive was unclear.

The scary part was that they were all equally true.

***

A week later, the students were finally allowed back onto the campus. The news crew who had been camping outside the gate previously had gotten wind of a more juicy and current story, so they moved on.

While many parents were upset at the circus, all of them were glad they could finally send their kids back to school. Their monthly exam was coming up and a week away was bound to encumber them.

Classes went on as normal, though many noticed that a few teachers were missing from their positions. When questioned, the substitute would scold the student and tell them to focus on their studies.

Considering how the principal was also replaced as well, the rumor was that the missing teachers were involved in the 'incident' too.

"Seriously, you missed out on the show!" Yang Ru proclaimed as they walked through the campus. Other students were milling about whispering about the faculty changes. "It was crazy~"

It must have been for her to proclaim it as such. Yang Ru dealt with a lot of things, so 'crazy' was a special adjective for her.

Now that I think about it, wasn't that the word she used to describe Chen Guiren? He thought, briefly wondering how the alpha was doing. They managed to slip away from his house without being seen but avoiding his parents was hard when he couldn't get the full story from Li Suren.

Luckily, his parents were more relieved that he was not involved. His lack of knowledge worked in his favor though he still felt guilty for skipping school.

As for Li Suren, even when he texted him, the omega only gave short replies of 'can't talk, latr'. Whatever had taken his attention had it in a death grip. Considering his position, he probably had to deal with the aftermath of the event.

Jun Yibai could only marvel at the chaos that he and his friends had somehow avoided. Thinking about it, he was absolutely sure he'd have been dragged into it somehow.

On one hand, this would be due to his bad luck. If something bad happened, he'd somehow get involved. More relevantly though, the group of hooligans who stormed in were probably connected to Chen Guiren.

Ah, maybe Suren was right about us dodging a bullet. He thought, excusing himself to take a piss. Yang Ru was still busy trying to sort things out with her class so she left.
