The wind rustled through the leaves, causing several green and yellow patches to fall in front of the three of them.

Wei Qingyu stood silently behind Ji Xiao, gazing at her blankly.

In reality, the 1,500 meters meant nothing to her.

She maintained the habit of morning runs, even after joining the Ji family. Every morning, she insisted on running for half an hour, so running 1,500 meters as an omega was not a challenge for her.

Moreover, except for the healing wound on her palm, she had no injuries on her body.

She could actively sign up, or she could choose to remain silent.

Observing Ji Xiao's uncommonly dejected figure as she sat down earlier on the stairs, a sense of satisfaction filled Wei Qingyu's heart.

However, for some reason, she couldn't find peace within herself, despite the apparent satisfaction.

The sunlight streamed down through the patio, casting a glow on the girl seated on the corridor steps, her shoulders slouched casually.

"Just as Qi Qi said, I participated in the 1,500 meters last year. You could have come and find me," Wei Qingyu calmly addressed the three alphas in front of her. "I won't get you in trouble either. I'm not quite so vulnerable."

Ji Xiao, gazing into Wei Qingyu's calm, deep turquoise eyes, swallowed hard, her throat tight and uneasy.

Indeed, she heard them.

Ji Xiao, sticking to the original good's tendency of not losing momentum, quickly retorted, "If you don't care for yourself, then so be it. I'm being cautious, just in case."

In her attempt to feign composure, she swiftly grabbed the registration form from Wei Qingyu's hand. The sudden movement caught Wei Qingyu off guard, and her hand was grazed by her soft thumb.

The touch of alpha skin left a hint of warmth, as if brandy had seeped into the skin, leaving behind a subtle tingling sensation, reminiscent of alcohol spilled on a wound.

This strange sensation prompted Wei Qingyu to instinctively clench her palm slightly. The crusted wound, not completely healed yet, stung a little, and Ji Xiao's words echoed in her mind.

"Wei Qingyu's hand injury hasn't cleared up yet. You guys, who don't understand Omega fragility, still insist on it?"

What is this person up to? Would she rather bow her head to rally other omegas to participate in the 1,500 meters than let Wei Qingyu participate in the event?

Is it due to jealousy of her first-year high school grades, not wanting her to secure the top spot again?

Or is Ji Xiao genuinely trying to show favoritism and help her escape from difficult tasks?

Wei Qingyu gazed at Ji Xiao, who was focused on examining the registration form, and found a mix of emotions in those calm eyes, emotions she couldn't quite define.

She disliked the feeling of things slipping beyond her control and uttered blankly to Ji Xiao, "If there's nothing else, I'll go."

Before Ji Xiao could react, Wei Qingyu turned around and left.

The girl's retreating figure remained as slender as ever, and the white shirt faintly outlined her slender waist in the light.

Although someone had volunteered for the 1,500 meters, Ji Xiao couldn't shake off her concern.

"Buzz..."

Suddenly, Wei Qingyu's phone vibrated in her pocket.
