Ye Chen took advantage of waiting at the traffic light to catch a glimpse of the Omega boy next to him.

Ye Chen couldn't understand why his heart inexplicably filled with a sense of joy when Tian Xinyuan referred to their two-person duplex apartment as "home."

The index finger tapped the steering wheel irregularly, undoubtedly showing that Alpha's mood was just right at the moment.

Perhaps it was because he had fastened his seatbelt too hastily just now, causing his short-sleeved school uniform shirt to become crumpled beneath the seatbelt. However, Tian Xinyuan seemed completely unaware of it as he blinked his eyes and took a small sip of juice after unscrewing the bottle cap.

Ye Chen silently looked on, sighed, and thought, "He really is just a child who hasn't grown up."

Although I knew that the other party was seven years younger than me before our arranged marriage, they were still considered an adult. However, through these few days of interaction, I realized that Tian Xinyuan's age cannot simply be measured by a number, because he really is just too young.

Cute, innocent, and pure.

Everything he displayed may not yet be called that of an adult, and these reasons are inseparable from his longstanding living environment.

However, it was this Omega who became his partner.

Even though they had not had any deeper interaction, and even though he had never sensed the omega pheromones that belonged to the other person, sometimes Ye Chen couldn't help but think about it. He even felt guilty about these thoughts himself. So, it was no wonder that every time Tian Ke saw him, there would be a hint of wariness on his face.

But in this matter, it cannot be said that both families are at fault.

"Brother? Where are we going?"

Tian Xinyuan seemed to sense his gaze and turned his head to meet Alpha's eyes.

Ye Chen coughed lightly and replied seriously, "Come to my house." After a pause, he added, "Come to my parents' house, the main residence of the Ye family."

"Oh." Tian Xinyuan dumbly responded, took a few seconds to react, then said, "What...what about Uncle and Aunt?"

"En." Ye Chen didn't correct him on the way he referred to his parents. Neither of them would force themselves to call each other's parents mom and dad in this regard.

My mom told me last night that she wants to meet you. It happens to be the weekend, so let's have a meal together at home.

"...Tian Xinyuan fell silent, the juice bottle in his hand creaking as he squeezed it."

Ye Chen seemed to have noticed the other person's nervousness and spoke in a gentle voice, saying, "There are only my parents at home, no need to be so...nervous."

Before he could finish speaking, Tian Xinyuan hurriedly interrupted, saying, "I know. It's... it's..."

Why does it feel like the originally arranged marriage for show has become more and more formal?

It's like... it feels as if the two of them have really gotten married.

Tian Xinyuan, somewhat untimely, recalled the day of the wedding when they made their vows before the priest, Alpha's focused expression.

"Umm..." Tian Xinyuan shook his head, trying to shake this image out of his mind.

It must be admitted that Ye Chen looked very handsome, extremely handsome, when he was wearing a white high-end suit at that time.

It perfectly embodies the ideal image of a perfect partner that Omega high school students fantasize about nowadays.

Ye Chen didn't notice the faint blush that appeared on Tian Xinyuan's face unintentionally. He drove the car into the gates of Ye's residence, and soon, someone wearing a uniform came running over to guide him in parking.

Tian Xinyuan walked alongside Ye Chen towards the entrance of their home.

"Is your school bag heavy? Shall I carry it for you?" Ye Chen asked.

Tian Xinyuan unconsciously clutched the straps of his backpack, refusing to let him carry it. "Thank you, big brother, but I can carry it myself."

"Don't be nervous, just treat it like you used to when visiting before." Ye Chen comforted, his right hand resting on Omega's shoulder, giving it a gentle pat.
