    The next day, a little after three in the afternoon, Xiao Jue was called out by Zhan An with a phone call. They often played games together at an internet cafe near the school. Sometimes, when they were in the mood, they could stay there for a whole day and night.

    As usual, the three of them went together this time, paid the money, and found three seats next to each other. Because it was a holiday, there were a lot of people in the internet cafe, and the strong smell of smoke made people feel uncomfortable. Especially for the Omega who naturally disliked this smell, it was even more unbearable.

    Xiao Jue was fine, as Ling Yu occasionally smoked and he had gotten used to it. It was Zhan An who struggled, covering his nose and taking a while to gradually adapt. Seeing him in discomfort, Jiang Yan called the network administrator and asked for a few bottles of mineral water.

    "How are you? Are you okay?" Jiang Yan asked while patting his back, a hint of tenderness in his gentle gaze.

    "Much better." Zhan An tilted his head back and took a few big gulps of water, his eyes reddened as he spoke.

    "In the future, I'll wear a mask whenever I come to places like this!" Jiang Yan still couldn't rest assured as he looked at him and said, absorbed in his own thoughts.

    What kind of mask are you wearing? It makes you look so delicate, just like me!" Zhan An pouted, turned his head to look at Xiao Jue, who was completely unaffected, and somehow felt a bit embarrassed.

    "Omegas have always been delicate!" Jiang Yan earnestly stated.

    Nonsense! Look at Jue Ge, does he seem delicate to you?" Zhan An immediately refuted his words, and even presented his best "evidence" as an example.

    Jiang Yan was left speechless by what was said. He stared at the person for a moment, then glanced at Xiao Jue. He awkwardly scratched his head and said, "Ah Jue... he's a special case! Besides, not every Omega is as mighty as him!"

    Xiao remained silent, only turning his head with an interested expression as he watched them bicker. After a while, he grew impatient and asked, "Are you two going to play the game or not?"

    "Fight! Fight! Fight!" Zhan An quickly responded, "Jiang Yan, log in, hurry up!"

    Jiang Yan pouted and reluctantly logged on. However, he seemed a bit off today, and his performance was noticeably worse than usual. At first, Xiao Jue thought that it was because he hadn't played for a long time and his skills were rusty, so he didn't pay much attention.

    Over the course of the next three to four rounds, Jiang Yan consistently maintained a level of skill rarely seen, resembling a novice. This greatly frustrated Xiao Jue, who clicked his tongue and furrowed his brow before asking, "Jiang Yan, what's going on with you?"

    "That's right, what kind of lousy operation is this?!" Zhān Ān couldn't quite understand him. He was usually so sharp, but when it came to critical moments, he would drop the ball!

    "Unfamiliar, unfamiliar..." Jiang Yan smirked and subtly moved a little closer to Zhan An. Then, with a touch of cunning, he asked, "Xiao An, are you free tomorrow? I'd like to treat you to a meal."

    Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Zhan An looked at Xiao Jue in a daze and immediately asked, "Brother Jue, why don't you come along too..."

    As soon as the words fell, Jiang Yan's mouth twitched, and he looked at Xiao Jue with extreme sorrow and resentment. He had no idea what to say to describe his complex emotions at this moment. He just wanted to invite Zhan An to have a meal alone, hoping to seize this opportunity to bring them closer together. However, he never expected this brat to be so clueless, always dragging Xiao Jue along no matter what they did.

    "I...I won't go, I have something to do tomorrow!" Xiao Jue seemed to understand the strange look in Jiang Yan's eyes, and directly declined Zhan An: "You two go ahead, have fun."

    Jiang Yan was momentarily stunned, but immediately realized that he wanted to help her. So she quickly continued his words, saying, "Yeah, let Ah Jue handle it if he has something to do. We can just go together."

    "If Jue Ge doesn't go, then I don't want to go either!" Zhan An pouted.

    "Don't go, Xiao An. I've gone through so much trouble to invite you for a meal. It's not like you to be so disrespectful." Jiang Yan became anxious and turned to Xiao Jue, giving him a signal with his eyes, urging him to speak for him quickly.

    Xiao Jue's gaze froze for a moment before finally understanding his meaning after a long pause. He replied, "Since Jiang Yan is treating, why not go? It's great to enjoy a free meal without having to pay. I'm just busy, otherwise I would have gone with you."

    In the end, after much coaxing and persuasion, Zhan An finally agreed to go out alone with Jiang Yan tomorrow.

    Not only was Jiang Yan happy, but Xiao Jue also breathed a sigh of relief. He did have something to do tomorrow, he needed to go to the hospital for a physical examination.

    Every Omega who has received long-acting suppressants must go for a medical examination at regular intervals. If no abnormalities occur for over two years, there will be almost no issues to worry about.
