The Self-cultivation of Omega Running with the Ball
Chapter 11 The Boy in Memory
Pei Du was simply dragged here by An Yunqi.
His childhood friend was a party-goer and would never miss such a party. He rushed over and dragged Pei Du out from his small apartment where he was writing a thesis.
An Yunqi was a well-known playboy, dating and breaking up quickly, but he had a lot of fun with every one of them. He took a breath of the hormone-filled air with enjoyment, "Ah, there are so many fresh and tender omegas, there must be one you like, right? Damn, look at that chick over there, she's so hot!"
Pei Du glanced over and saw a freshman with a hot body, whose breasts were padded like water balloons.
"Hey, what's with that empty expression of yours?" An Yunqi nudged him with his elbow, "Can you even stand this with a body like this?"
"I'm not a stud, why can't I hold back?" Pei Du leisurely picked up the biscuit on the plate and took a bite. It was crispy and fragrant, and very delicious.
An Yunqi continued to recommend many beauties to him enthusiastically, but Pei Du didn't say anything. Finally, An Yunqi held his shoulder with concern and said, "Brother, do you really have something to hide..."
"What's the secret?" Pei Du smiled. "Ever since you peeked at me in the bathroom when you were 13, didn't you swear that you would never go to the bathroom with me again in this life?"
An Yunqi got angry and whispered, "Fuck, I know you're older, so you show off!"
Pei Du couldn't tell, although there were indeed many handsome men and beautiful women at the party, he always unconsciously compared himself with a face in his memory. That person was crying in a mess, and was dressed in shabby clothes, but after a few months of washing his memory, he turned into a rose soaked by rain, showing his brightness that had never been picked.
Although he was not interested, the beauty hunters would not miss this opportunity. Pei Du was gradually annoyed by the people who came to chat up, so he took the opportunity to turn into a secluded corner with An Yunqi. This place was close to the back door of the villa, there was no one there, and the noisy music was left far behind.
An Yunqi stretched lazily: "Ahaha, I'm so tired. Being too popular is also a sin... Hmm? What a nice smell, are the cookies ready? The cookies just now were so delicious that they were snatched away in a short while. Come on, let's go and have a bite first."
He walked towards the kitchen, sniffing like a dog. Pei Du highly agreed with his evaluation of the biscuits and prepared to go to the kitchen together to get some freshly baked biscuits.
After walking around the small flower bed, they saw the open door of the back kitchen. A boy was sitting on the steps eating a watermelon. When he saw them, he raised his head in surprise.
He was obviously a kitchen helper, his clothes were soaked with sweat, his trouser legs were rolled up to his knees, his short sleeves were rolled up to his shoulders, and his hair was pinned to his head with two small clips. Even so, beads of sweat kept flowing down his fair skin, and his light green eyes were wide open, with a kind of panic in them, like a small animal.
"Oh oh oh!" When An Yunqi first saw him, he made a bunch of dandy noises. He poked Pei Du beside him with his elbow and said, "Look at that, tsk tsk tsk!"
Pei Du stood still, but his eyes were fixed on that girl. An Yunqi chuckled, thinking, "Aren't you a man with high standards? How come you are so staring at a real beauty?"
Sure enough, Pei Du took the initiative to step forward and greeted him, "Long time no see."
Wen Qiu never thought that he would run into Pei Du when he was eating watermelon in his spare time. He looked embarrassed every time he was bumped into by him. He put down the watermelon rind sheepishly, wiped the watermelon juice off his face, and asked sincerely: "Well... do we know each other?"
An Yunqi's eyes swept between the two of them like a strong flashlight - this was the first time in history that Pei Du had been rejected when he tried to strike up a conversation with him.
"Have you forgotten?" Pei Du would not let him play dumb, and said with a half-smile, "I helped you that day, didn't you treat me to osmanthus milk?"
"Osmanthus milk tea?" An Yunqi looked puzzled. "Is this the new milk tea?"
But for some reason, when the OMEGA heard this, the tips of his ears suddenly turned red. He stood up in a hurry, his eyes darting around: "Oh, so, it's you. Long time no see..."
"I don't think I've seen you go to that store again. Are you working here now?" Pei Du asked with a smile.
"I'm here to help and earn some living expenses." Wen Qiu didn't want to be looked down upon, so he pulled his apron open a little, revealing a freshman T-shirt with the college logo printed on it.
Pei Du was actually a little surprised. It was the first time he saw someone who could work in that kind of place and get admitted to Jiangnan University at the same time.
"So you are a junior from the College of Arts," Pei Du patted his shoulder like an enthusiastic senior, "Our College of Economics is right next to the College of Arts. I'll take you around the school when I have time."
As soon as he approached, Wen Qiu couldn't help but step back. Pei Du left a good impression on him, but the memory related to him was too chaotic. And even if he looked friendly and kind, it couldn't change his nature as a natural disaster - such a person would cause a catastrophe even if he just passed through his life.
Wen Qiu instinctively wanted to escape. He wiped his hands on his apron and made an excuse: "I have to go get busy. The cookies are almost done..."
"So you made that cookie," Pei Du did not move forward, leaving psychological safety space for the vigilant little animal, "It's very delicious."
"Thank you, I'm glad you like it." Wen Qiu said quickly and hid back in the kitchen.
As soon as he left, An Yunqi started to talk nonsense: "Fuck, where did you meet such a pretty girl? She looks stunning when she's shy! Why don't you try to make a date with her?"
"He's not shy." Pei Du said, "He's just trying to avoid me."
"There's no point in hiding." An Yunqi had been friends with him for so many years and knew Pei Du's nature too well. "When have you ever failed to get what you wanted?"
But he was just curious. For someone like Pei Du, he would be very picky even if it was delivered to him. This was the first time he showed obvious interest in someone. When did the two of them meet? By the way, which store’s new product was “Osmanthus Milk”?
An Yunqi was just thinking about it when he suddenly heard Pei Du ask, "Don't you think he looks familiar?"
Does it look familiar? It seems a little bit, but An Yunqi has always felt that he and all the beauties in the world are confidantes who have never met each other... Oh, that pair of eyes is very special, it seems that I have really seen it somewhere... "Ah, maybe it's the young master of the Wen family!" An Yunqi knocked his fist, "Oh, you also saw him once, it should be when we were in middle school, didn't Young Master Wang take a group of people to his newly opened amusement park?"
After his reminder, Pei Du's vague impression finally became clear. That was more than ten years ago, and he could no longer remember what the people who went with him did do that day. However, one child did leave some impression on him.
"I remember that little spoiled brat also had green eyes, and seemed to be of mixed blood." An Yunqi said, "He relied on his cute looks and had a terrible temper. A bunch of big, silly ALPHAs even competed to hold a parasol for him, and even Young Master Wang doted on him..."
Pei Du remembered something else. He was just wandering around bored when he suddenly saw someone at the balloon stand who was very accurate in shooting. He stopped to watch for a while. The green-eyed boy held a gun with a very focused look. He shot a balloon with one shot, and never missed a single shot. He soon won the first prize - a huge rabbit doll, which was placed at the top of the prize column in an eye-catching manner.
The green-eyed child was so small that he couldn't reach his trophy even if he stood on tiptoe.
Wang Shao was there at the time, so he took the rabbit down for him. Just then, a group of people came over from the roller coaster and saw this scene, and they started to make a noise: "Wang Shao is a good shot!"
"Awesome! You have to hit them all to win this rabbit!"
"So cute, let me touch it, Brother Wang..."
"Hey, someone shot a rabbit and gave it to her boyfriend. Why are you interfering?"
Wang Shao was the oldest among the children and the absolute center of the group. He accepted everyone's flattery with a smile, just like a king returning from hunting. He stuffed the giant rabbit doll into the boy's arms and said, "This is for you."
The young man held the rabbit that was almost as tall as him, looked up at Wang Shao, and said clearly word by word: "This is the prize I won myself, what does it have to do with you?"
The clear voice fell to the ground like pearls, and the air became extremely quiet in an instant. The group of half-grown children also felt the embarrassment and suffocation in an instant.
Wang Shao's face darkened. No one had ever dared to let him, an Alpha with a distinguished family background, lose face in public like this. He had always spoiled him and given in to him, but he was so ungrateful: "What do you mean?!"
People around him started to murmur: "That's right, they gave you the rabbit out of kindness, and you didn't even say thank you!"
"He just relies on his good looks and thinks that others have to give in to him..."
Although no one saw what happened before, it seemed that everyone agreed that Wang Shao was the winner.
The boy stood stubbornly in the middle of the crowd, being pointed at by thousands of people. He was so angry that his eyes turned red. He walked up and stuffed the rabbit into Wang Shao's arms, shouting, "You keep it for yourself!"
Then he strode over to the balloon stand, threw down ten dollars, picked up his gun and started shooting.
"Bang-bang-bang--" Each shot was quick and accurate, bursting a balloon, as if it was the enemy's head. When the last balloon burst, the boy quickly put away his gun and jumped up to pull down a shark doll as big as a rabbit.
He held the doll and looked around majestically at the people around him, like a proud soldier. Although his eyes were still red, a smug smile hung on the corners of his mouth: "Who else wants it? I can still win if we try again."
There was total silence. Wang Shao was so angry that he wanted to kick him. The people around him observed his expression and tried to comfort him, accusing him of being rude. But the boy was too lazy to listen and walked away holding the doll with his head held high.
For the next half day, Wang Shao was still the center of attention, surrounded by people wherever he went. Pei Du occasionally glanced at him and found that the boy was always alone, riding the carousel, playing with the spinning teacup, and watching singing and dancing performances with his oversized shark...
He didn't think the boy did anything wrong, he just thought he didn't understand the rules of the game in this world.
Such people often have to endure a lot of suffering and shed a lot of blood and tears until they are covered with bruises before they can see the truth of the world.
An Yunqi obviously remembered this incident as well. "That kid named Wen is really ungrateful and doesn't give face to anyone. I just remember that he had really big eyes and really long eyelashes, like a doll... Do you think that freshman just now is the young master of the Wen family?"
Pei Du touched his chin. The face in his memory was already blurry, but an inexplicable feeling made him certain: "Well, I think so."
"I don't think so." An Yunqi said, "How could the young master of the Wen family be dressed so shabby and eat watermelon on the steps? He is so delicate and vain. He lied when it was obviously not a prize he won..."
Pei Du found it magical. He and An Yunqi had clearly witnessed the same thing. However, An Yunqi's memory seemed to be biased: Wang Shao had become a tolerant and generous positive character, the ALPHA who was never wrong; and the young master was still the unreasonable and spoiled child who made everyone unhappy.
"But mixed-race children with green eyes are rare, right?" Pei Du said.
"NONONO, you have to believe that human nature is hard to change," An Yunqi said confidently, "That kind of spoiled young master would never come out to work even if he starved to death."
"Is it hard to change one's nature?" To a certain extent, Pei Du actually agreed with these four words, and was therefore more curious about what had made Young Master Wen become what he is now.
An Yunqi was just idle, and suddenly he came up with a bad idea. He hooked Pei Du's shoulder and glanced towards the kitchen: "I have a way to find out if he is the young master. How about a bet? The loser has to promise the winner something."
Pei Du put his hands in his pockets and smiled indifferently: "Okay."
