Pay Attention To Me

Chapter 4

T/N: Happy new year everyone ✨❤️

The lunch break at First High was nearly an hour.

After eating, the overactive alphas headed out to the athletic field to kick a ball around, with a surrounding circle of betas and omegas to cheer them on, the noise from which could be clearly heard all the way over to the academic building.

After Jiang Yao finished his unappetizing lunch, he went off to the school shop to buy some snacks, wandering aimlessly around the campus on his way there to familiarize himself with the new environment.

The perimeter wall of First High was much shorter than Eighth High’s. Probably because they hadn’t been inflicted with many “bad students” like him who would climb over the wall. It was somewhat grown-over with creeping vines.

Jiang Yao thought to himself that such an opportunity should not be squandered. Some night, he could head out for a midnight snack, since there were plenty of small restaurants on the back street behind the school which were definitely higher quality than the dining hall.

After turning a corner, he found a small grove, which was pretty much the staple of any school grounds. Jiang Yao used to go into the grove at Eighth High, usually because he was called there by someone for a confession. It had happened at least a dozen times.

“……this is what I made……”

A faint voice came from within the grove.

Did I happen to run across the scene of a confession?

He had always held the leading role in such a scene, so being a passerby for the first time was quite the novel experience. He approached the grove.

The lush Metasequoia trees were neatly arranged to form a natural wall. Through the gaps between the leaves, he could roughly make out the scene inside.

“It was made crudely, so wait until next year…… Next year, I’ll try to make something better for you.” The speaker lifted the large bag in his hand, showing the person opposite him the contents, and smiled shallowly, “You like it?”

Jiang Yao let out a “wow” in his heart.

This little brat, turns out he also has someone he likes.

Yin Che was facing his direction, but didn’t seem to notice him. His eyes were focused on the person before him and there was a trace of obvious nervous tension in his smile.

He could only see the back of the other person. It was a male student. He was tall and seemed like an alpha. His hands were in his pockets, as if he had no intention of taking the bag.

He just lowered his head and looked into the bag, “It really is pretty crude. For my birthday, you’re just giving me this thing?”

Yin Che’s smile dimmed, “I remembered you liked building houses when you were a kid, so I made one on my own. It’s definitely not as good as a purchased one. But if you don’t like it, I can go buy—”

“No need, I don’t want it.” The student scoffed, “Do you know what birthday gift I want the most?”

“What? Just say it and I’ll try my best.”

“I want you to move out. Just catching sight of you makes me feel annoyed.”

Yin Che blinked in surprise, “But, I’m already staying in the dorm.”

“Don’t you still go home on the weekends? Don’t I still have to see you at school? Hovering around in front of my eyes every day. Are you afraid other people won’t realize I have an older brother like you?”
