When Ning Xi woke up, he found himself lying under a garbage pavilion, shoulder to shoulder with four trash bins.

The clear July sky was thick with humidity, making the air sticky and stifling.

Blazing sunlight filtered through the transparent roof of the garbage pavilion, shining directly onto Ning Xi’s face. A warm golden hue spread across, casting sharp contrasts of light and shadow.

Ning Xi was blinded by the brightness. He turned his head uncertainly to glance at the “Hazardous Waste” bin beside him and struggled to sit up.

Ah…

He remembered just finishing a call from the admissions office. Before he could even decide whether to go to Peking University or Tsinghua University, his rogue-like friends had dragged him off to drink.

Did he drink so much that he ended up next to a trash bin?

Ning Xi lifted his eyelids, lazily ruffling his hair. His finely shaped lashes drooped slightly, and the lingering scent of alcohol rose faintly from his throat again.

He let out a soft hiss and carelessly wiped his face.

Ning Xi was a recent graduate, a top-tier candidate for China’s elite universities. A naturally gifted student, he had scored an impressive 702 on the college entrance exam, ranking 5th in the entire province and becoming a highly sought-after prospect for the country’s best schools.

With outstanding grades, a prestigious family background, and an enviable appearance, Ning Xi had lived his 18 years in effortless ease. Everything had gone his way, fueling his young master’s temperament.

And yet, here he was—sitting under a garbage pavilion overflowing with precious resources.

Around him were lush green lawns and red-tiled white-walled buildings—familiar yet foreign. If nothing else, it should be a high school.

What the hell did he do last night to end up in someone else’s school?

The inexplicably oppressive heat made Ning Xi’s whole body sore, and the pain in his neck was especially unbearable.

Maybe the alcohol was still messing with him. A careless, roguish air lingered in the slant of his brows.

Ning Xi didn’t bother with his usual refined pickiness or the nauseating smell of garbage. He simply slammed himself back again, wanting to stretch his limbs with a turn.

But before he could even settle into a comfortable position, a shadow loomed over him.

“Uh…”

Following the voice, Ning Xi looked up and saw a high school student standing in front of him, dressed in a school uniform and holding a large bag of trash.

The young boy was tall and lean, with slightly lighter-colored hair, deep-set brows, and a high nose. Natural light cast a soft glaze over his pale skin. However, his expression was somewhat doubtful—his brows slightly furrowed, and his tone hesitant as he asked, “Classmate, are you still going to get up?”

Ning Xi: “…”

Did he misunderstand something?

“Ah, yeah, I just fell accidentally.” After Ning Xi finished, he braced a hand against the ground to stand up. But as soon as he moved, his blood pressure clearly wasn’t keeping up. Before he could even straighten halfway, he plopped right back down.

Ning Xi: “…”

He wasn’t sure if he was delaying this male student from throwing away his trash, but the high schooler seemed unable to just stand by and watch. He slowly opened his mouth, “Do you need a hand?”

Before Ning Xi could say yes, he grabbed Ning Xi’s arm and hoisted him up.

Still in a half-dazed state, Ning Xi’s first instinct—thanks to his thick skin and laid-back nature—was to appreciate this classmate’s help.

So he patted the boy’s shoulder, gave him a big grin, and flashed a thumbs-up. “Thanks, didi.”

The boy squinted at the smiling “gege” beside him, then wordlessly averted his gaze. He didn’t respond, then he faintly turned his head away.

When Ning Xi looked at this high school kid, he could tell at a glance that he was definitely one of those aloof, pretentious cool guys who never talked much at school.

Even from this distance, Ning Xi could even catch the scent of the boy’s cologne.

It was likely a blend of ebony and citrus—reminiscent of late autumn and winter.

Tsk, a high schooler wearing cologne? He was either a troublemaker or a flirt.

Ning Xi felt an inexplicable sense of pity for this handsome guy. He figured the kid’s grades were probably mediocre at best.

As an excellent senior who just graduated, Ning Xi didn’t forget to offer a sincere piece of advice to this younger brother from a completely different school: “Study hard ah, didi. Jiayou^[1]It means to cheer somebody on. oh.”

The boy paused briefly, his expression indifferent.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke. “…Your pheromones, remember to cover it.”

Pheromones? What was this?

Ning Xi blinked a few times, then suddenly remembered that he had just gotten up from next to a trash bin. He probably had some lingering garbage odor on him.

Were little boys these days always this subtle when pointing things out?

“Oh okay, okay.” Ning Xi patted himself.

Then, a wave of nausea hit him, probably from drinking too much. Feeling sick to his stomach, he turned back and asked, “Ai didi, where’s the bathroom in your school?”

The boy hesitated for a moment before saying, “The nearest one is in Teaching Building No. 2.”

“Thanks ha.” Ning Xi waved a hand lazily and strolled off toward the building.

The camphor trees were particularly lush this season, their rain-washed leaves along the road were clean and translucent.

On one side of the connecting corridor was a small courtyard shaded by greenery, while the other faced high school classrooms where lessons were still in session.

Ning Xi wandered into the teaching building, strolling idly to find a bathroom.

The privacy film on the windows was positioned just right, allowing teachers to discreetly peek in and catch students slacking off during class. The large glass panes were wiped spotless, letting in sunlight at just the right brightness.

Ning Xi’s gaze swept past the teacher on the podium who was passionately delivering the lesson, and the students below, some diligently taking notes, others zoning out.

He suddenly remembered that just a few months ago, he had also been a senior in high school.

Ning Xi always sat by the window, where he could look up and watch the endless clouds drifting across the sky.

His deskmate had been a girl who loved reading novels. All day long, she would chatter about her favorite fictional characters, even treating them as spiritual support by placing their pictures on her desk.

At the time, Ning Xi had found her pretty annoying. But thinking back now, it was actually a nice memory…

The men’s bathroom was at the end of the hallway.

Ning Xi walked in, and the wind caused the door to slam shut behind him with a loud bang. He didn’t think much of it.

But before he could fully step inside, he heard someone exclaim, “F*ck!”

A high school boy, in the middle of using the restroom, had been startled by the noise. He saw Ning Xi, cursed, then hastily yanked up his pants and zipped them.

Ning Xi looked at the boy, confused by his panicked expression. He could only say, “Uh… continue ah.”

“Sh*t,” the boy said. “You’re in the wrong place. This is the Alpha’s bathroom. What’s an Omega doing here ah!”

Ning Xi: “?”

Ning Xi thought back to the sign outside. Under the male symbol, there had indeed been an “Alpha” label.

But so what?

The high school boy in front of him continued, “F*ck why is your pheromone scent so strong? You’re not in heat, are you?”

Before Ning Xi could open his mouth, this high school boy shouted, “You can’t run to Alpha’s toilet even if you’re h***y, this behavior is very hooligan, do you know that!”

Before Ning Xi could respond, the kid blurted out again, “No matter how desperate you are, you can’t just run into the Alpha restroom! Do you even know how pervy that looks?!”

Ning Xi: “…”

He’s scolding me, right?

He’s definitely scolding me.

Just as Ning Xi was about to put this ignorant kid in his place, the nausea in his stomach suddenly surged up violently.

Maybe the alcohol still hadn’t worn off. The dizziness kept intensifying, and an indescribable pain spread from his spine all the way up to his neck.

His legs felt weak, and his body lost balance. He had to reach out and brace himself against the wall, gasping for breath.

Seeing his state, the school boy couldn’t help but ask, “Hey, are you okay?”

Ning Xi wanted to say he was fine.

But the heat at the back of his neck was growing unbearable, and his throat felt dry. He could only turn his head slightly, trying to ease the stinging pain.

“Why don’t you wash your face first?” The boy saw that Ning Xi’s head was covered in sweat and asked cautiously.

Ning Xi thought that washing his face would indeed clear his head, but before he could walk to the sink, he was stunned by himself in the mirror.

Who… who is this ah?

The person in the mirror had delicate features and fair skin. Every part of their face was exquisite, their eyes slightly reddened at the corners. Cold sweat dampened their bangs, making them look both disheveled and pitiful.

Ning Xi froze in place.

He raised a hand in front of the mirror and waved it.

The person in the mirror did the same.

Holy sht, holy sht, holy sh*t.

That pretty didi in the mirror can’t be himself!

It was definitely Ning Xi’s face, yet something was inexplicably different.

The tan he’d gotten from playing basketball in high school had completely faded, leaving behind a pale, almost porcelain complexion. His eyes were rounder, their curve softer.

Every contour of his face had become incredibly delicate, giving him an overall look of complete harmlessness.

Ning Xi was still wearing the same clothes from last night’s drinking session, and it was undeniably his own face, but how the hell had he ended up looking like this?

Either he had drunk too much and still hadn’t sobered up, or he had lost his mind.

The air felt like it was laced with poison—every exposed pore on his body was screaming in pain.

Ning Xi stood frozen. The tightness in his chest made him can’t help but bend down and breathe heavily.

The male Alpha next to him started to panic.

This was clearly an Omega. If something happened to him here, as the only Alpha present, he’d definitely be held accountable.

“No, I’m a little scared when you’re like this, hey, I’ll take you to the teacher…”

As he spoke, the Alpha stepped forward, reaching out to help Ning Xi up.

But before he could even touch him, Ning Xi grabbed his hovering arm, twisted it backward in one sharp motion, and pinned the Alpha straight to the ground.

Ning Xi’s voice carried a barely restrained irritation. “What do you think you’re doing?”

Alpha: “…”

Did he just get taken down—barehanded—by an Omega who looked like he was in heat?

Ning Xi had trained in martial arts since childhood, later specializing in Taekwondo in school. He had even won a national award and earned a black belt.

These defensive moves were practically ingrained into his muscle memory. As soon as Ning Xi realized what he’d done, he quickly let go of the guy, backing away while apologizing, “I’m sorr,y I’m sorry. It was just a reflex…”

Then, he bumped straight into a solid chest.

Ning Xi turned around to see that it was actually the mensao^[2]Outwardly cold or retiring but deep and passionate inside. didi who had just sprayed perfume.

The didi stood behind him, holding a broom. His naturally drooping bangs half-covered his shallow, narrow eyes. His lashes lifted slightly as he gazed at Ning Xi in silence.

“What are you doing?” he asked close to Ning Xi’s ear.

That Alpha saw that didi and hurriedly shouted, “Song Yize, You’re here just in time. This Omega barged into the Alpha restroom, reeking of pheromones, and then slammed me to the ground! Tell me, does the student council deal with shameless behavior like this or not?!”

Song Yize…

This name sounds familiar.

Wait.

Ning Xi jolted awake.

–

”<My Agreement with the School Grass A>^[3]School Grass means the handsome guy in school. is seriously so good! I’ve decided—Song Yize is officially my husband from today onward!”

“Ah, does someone as perfect as Song Yize really exist? He’s cold but also gentle—are people like him even real~”

“Help! Song Yize spoils the female lead so much! Ah, ah, ah, ah, it’s too dreamy!”

“Song xueshen^[4]Study God is my spiritual pillar. I want to learn from him, get good grades, and get into a top university!”

“Ah, ah, ah, Ze-ge! I have a math test today—please bless me ah!”

……

–

Holy ****. Now he remembered.

Aiya, no wonder the name sounded so familiar.

Song Yize ah, his high school female deskmate’s absolute favorite novel character ah.

The one fictional character, Song Yize, who had nothing to do with him yet somehow managed to indirectly harass his entire senior year ah!

Ning Xi stared in disbelief at the ridiculously handsome guy in front of him. He even rubbed his eyes, refusing to believe it.

No way. Maybe it was just the same name…

Ning Xi tugged on Song Yize’s arm and leaned in. “Your name is Song Yize?”

Song Yi Ze felt puzzled, but still nodded.

“Song as in Song Yu, Yi as in Yi, and Ze as in Chuanze?”^[5]宋 “sòng” in 宋玉 “sòng yù” which means his surname came from this. The surname song and the character for jade. 易 “yì” as in 容易 “róng … Continue reading

“En.”

“Height: 187, weight: 139, shoulder width: 53, measurements: 101/75/92, six-pack abs, a mole behind your left ear, senior year experimental class, best at math and physics but kinda sucks at Chinese—Song Yize?”

Song Yize: “…”

“Damn. This little Omega knows you really well. He even knows your body measurements,” the school boy behind them whistled and said to Song Yize in amusement, “Your suitor ah?”

Song Yize’s tone remained calm and indifferent. With an expressionless face, he replied, “No idea.”

“Ai, makes sense. He does look pretty good, ai. But hey, it’s not like you’re lacking admirers. In our senior year, studying for college is what really matters!”

“It’s good that you know.”

Unfortunately, Ning Xi, whose brain had short-circuited, didn’t hear a word of their conversation.

Somehow waking up in an unfamiliar high school, passing out next to a row of trash bins, this whole Alpha-Omega setting, his face becoming even more refined, and Song Yize—a guy who matched the novel’s character down to the last detail…

Putting all of that together, there was only one conclusion left, whether he believed it or not.

Ning Xi swallowed hard.

He, might’ve, transmigrated into a book.
