Qiu Yue’s pheromones are quite peculiar; it’s like a combination of the forest after rain and a handful of snow, which is a rare pheromone that can’t be visualized. Fortunately, since the interstellar age has been equalized for a long time, both Alphas and Omegas are required to have basic protection to avoid public disturbance caused by pheromone leakage, and few people know about his scent.
Qiu Yue is already thirty-four years old, which is an age at which marriage can be promoted even in the interstellar age when life expectancy is greatly prolonged and sexual maturity is delayed to nineteen years old. Qiu Yue doesn’t care about that, but his two dads are more concerned, especially his Omega father. When he went back to see them last month, his father took him by the hand and said to him, “Baby, do you feel lonely by yourself? If yes, dad will give you a brother to accompany you.”
Qiu Yue firmly refused in his father’s tender and loving eyes.
Qiu Yue is very satisfied with his life now. As a university teacher, his work is quite relaxed. After class, he drove along to buy vegetables and went home. On the way home, he went into a flower shop, which he often visited.
There are not many places with flower shops in the interstellar era. Compared with ornamental plants, the Academy of Sciences has made more genetic improvements for edible plants. Many flowers are not easy to feed here. When decorating rooms, simulated flowers are now obviously a better choice.
What Qiu Yue often bought was a kind of flower with small stems and dense petals. Its fragrance was very light. When he got close to it, he could smell a bitter scent similar to wild berries, called deiro.
When Qiu Yue was young, he was often described as a young man with a strong sense of youth. Now, because of professional reasons, his temperament is more gentle and restrained, which makes him harder to ignore.
Fu Lin’s first impression of Qiu Yue was very deep. When he received his smile whilst handing over the packaged flowers to the other party, he felt like he was back in his childhood, because he had done a trivial thing and was rewarded with the sweetest sugar.
Because he is next to the University, it is not necessary to guess Qiu Yue’s identity. One day, Fu Lin asked unintentionally, “Is Mr. Qiu a teacher?” So they became a little acquainted.
Fu Lin admitted that he was fond of Qiu Yue and this was also a deliberate temptation. However, if he didn’t start to buy flowers in the shop, they would only have this unfair relationship and only say two words to each other when packing flowers.
Fu Lin, who had been struggling with how to break the stalemate, received a phone call from Qiu Yue that night, saying that he wanted to order a bunch of flowers. Because of too many things going on, he only just remembered that he needed it in the morning, so had to call to inquire about the order.
Fu Lin first left his private number for Qiu Yue, and has been wanting to acquire the other party’s number. Now he was very happy to agree.
The next day, they both got up early, dressed up and met in the rainy morning.
After putting the flowers in the back seat of Qiu Yue’s car, they decided to have breakfast together. The moisture of the rain mixed with the bitter scent of the berries, and was extremely harmonious in the early morning before the sun had come out.
