This Omega is Sweet and Wild - Chap 78
Chap 78
Li Cheng had thought that life in a long-distance relationship would be very difficult. He and Xiao Yiheng would definitely be like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the legends, missing each other every day.
But… Li Cheng was so tired that he didn’t even have the energy to think!
When Li Cheng was in Huacheng No. 1 High School, he had the most training among all his teammates. But when he arrived at the training center, he realized that his training was a joke.
The coaches of the national team were a bunch of devils. They had to swim five kilometers just for a morning warm-up!
If it was a 50-meter long pool, they would have to swim 50 laps. If it was a 25-meter short pool, they would have to swim 100 laps!
When the coach announced this number for the first time, the whole swimming team was in an uproar.
Li Cheng was slightly relieved. Luckily, he wasn’t the only one who was “ignorant.”
The coach in charge of the men’s team this time was surnamed Yu. She was a female Alpha. She had a square face, short hair, deep wrinkles, and her eyebrows were always knitted together.
Li Cheng had seen her on the news before. He knew that she often led the second team of the national team to competitions all over the country. She was a very capable coach.
Coach Yu said, “Is five kilometers long?
If you can’t even last through a warm-up, I advise you to take your luggage and go back to your school! ”
Everyone immediately shut up.
They were all geniuses. Every one of them had at least one provincial gold medal. They came to the training center under the envy of their classmates and the expectations of their families. If they were sent back because they couldn’t keep up with the training, it would definitely be the greatest shame in their lives!
No one dared to say anything more. Under Coach Yu’s request, they split into two groups. The long-distance swimmers went to the long pool to warm up, and the short-distance swimmers went to the short pool to warm up.
Before entering the water, Li Cheng heard two swimmers chatting. They were probably from the same hometown, so they deliberately spoke in different dialects.
Li Cheng had been to many places with his parents when he was a child, so he could understand some dialects.
One of them said, “Coach Yu is so scary. Just for a warm-up, we have to swim 100 laps. I’m worried that I can’t swim!”
The other one comforted him, “Today is the first day of training. There must be a lot of people like us.
Don’t mess up. Swim slowly. ”
“Swim slowly?
How embarrassing! ”
“We won’t lose face.” That person snickered. “You forgot that there’s still a ‘bottom’ in our team.”
The first person also laughed, “You’re right!
Speaking of which, isn’t Hua Province’s competition a little too lousy? They actually let an Omega win three times? ”
Li Cheng: “…”
He understood that these two idiots were waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Li Cheng wasn’t the type to swallow his anger. He walked over and interrupted their conversation with a smile on his face.
“Hey, brother, what are you talking about?” Li Cheng acted like they were close friends. “Listening to your accent, you guys are from X City, right?”
The two men’s expressions immediately became vigilant and awkward. “… You can understand X City’s language?”
“I don’t understand,” Li Cheng lied.
The two of them sighed in relief.
Li Cheng continued, “But I used to have a classmate who was from X City. He taught me a few greetings in X City’s dialect.”
Before the two men could react, Li Cheng directly said in X City’s dialect, “F * ck you%% f * cking @ @ I ¥# ¥!”
This sentence was a very, very dirty swear word in X City’s dialect. Not only did it curse the other party’s ancestors, but it also used their ancestors’ coffins as firewood.
The two men’s faces instantly turned into the color of pig liver.
“You —!”
“Me?
What about me? ”
Li Cheng asked with a puzzled face, “I said ‘Hello’. Is my pronunciation wrong? Then I’ll change it — F * ck you # # f * ck you @ @ @ @!”
Li Cheng didn’t use his brain when learning English, but he was very fast when it came to learning dialect swear words. His pronunciation was also very accurate.
However, he still had an innocent smile on his face. His eyes were shining, and he was very magnanimous.
The two men from X City wanted to talk back after being scolded by him, but they felt very guilty. If Li Cheng didn’t know the meaning of swear words, then he was innocent. If Li Cheng knew the meaning of swear words, then it meant that he could understand the dialect. Then, wouldn’t he have heard their conversation just now?
The two men could only swallow their anger and leave with their faces covered in dirt.
After they left, Zhou Jian came over and asked him what happened.
Li Cheng shrugged and said indifferently, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to say hello to them.”
Zhou Jian could tell that Li Cheng wasn’t telling the truth, but he still took the opportunity to express his concern. “If you need help with anything, just ask.”
Li Cheng thought for a moment. “Speaking of which, there is something I need your help with.”
Zhou Jian immediately asked, “What is it?”
Li Cheng: “Can you swim five kilometers for me?”
Zhou Jian: “…”
Li Cheng: “Looking at your expression, I don’t think so.”
Zhou Jian coughed and left awkwardly.
After the five-kilometer warm-up, dozens of young men collapsed on the shore. They were all out of breath.
During the hundred round trip, Li Cheng swam with all his might. He didn’t want others to look down on him just because he was an Omega.
In the end, Li Cheng became the fourth person in the men’s freestyle team to finish the five-kilometer warm-up. The first three were all long-distance swimmers, and their endurance was much better than Li Cheng’s. The two men from X City who were chattering before were pulled up by their coach before they finished swimming.
Li Cheng lay on the ground and gasped for breath. He thought to himself, “Those … phew … those idiots … want to swim faster than me?
… Phew … Bullshit! ”
This five-kilometer warm-up was just an appetizer given to them by Coach Yu. What came next was the main event.
Coach Yu required them to develop the ability to “mentally calculate time”. Every time before they entered the water, Coach Yu would set a time limit for them. After the swimmer finished swimming, the time difference between the two times could not be more than 0.5 seconds!
If the difference was more than half a second, they would have to train for one kilometer.
This requirement drove everyone crazy. For the whole day, Li Cheng was sweating non-stop. His sweat mixed into the pool, and his limbs sank like lead.
After a day of training, the swimmers walked into the cafeteria with each other.
Because his stamina was exhausted, Li Cheng was starving. He desperately stuffed food into his mouth, and he couldn’t remember what the food in his mouth tasted like.
He was so tired that his mind was blank. When he returned to the dormitory, he almost couldn’t climb up to the second floor of his bed.
He fell head first onto the bed, half asleep and half awake.
He vaguely remembered that there was something he hadn’t done yet.
… Oh … That’s right … He promised his boyfriend that he would call him tonight …
Li Cheng forced his eyes open, took out his spare phone from under his pillow, and opened the chat app in a daze.
… What was his boyfriend’s name again …
… Xiao Yiheng, Xiao Yishu, Xiao Yishan, Xiao Yizhi …
When Li Cheng counted to the word “Yizhi”, his mind went black, and he fell asleep.
The class monitor of Grade 12 Class 1, Liu Ke, recently noticed that his deskmate, Xiao Yiheng, was acting very strangely.
Xiao Yiheng was always ranked first in the grade. His grades were always far ahead of the second place by more than ten points. This kind of “genius” was deeply loved by the teachers, and they often called him up to answer questions during class.
But recently, the teacher called Xiao Yiheng ten times, and Xiao Yiheng would answer eight times, “Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention just now. Teacher, please repeat the question again.”
The teacher was speechless.
Only a genius like Xiao Yiheng could calmly say “I wasn’t paying attention” in front of the teacher.
However, even if Xiao Yiheng didn’t pay attention in class, his grades were still firmly in first place.
On the school forum, there was a lemon spirit who said sarcastically, “A genius is so amazing. Since he can understand what the teacher is talking about, why does he come to school?”
Immediately, Xiao Yiheng’s fans jumped out and said, “Even if Almighty Xiao learned all the knowledge in the textbook, he still insisted on coming to school and using his beauty to light up the whole school … I’m so moved, we should applaud his behavior!”
As for the truth, only Liu Ke knew.
During class, Xiao Yiheng’s mind was indeed not paying attention. He took out his phone every five minutes to check if the person he was worried about had replied to his message.
Liu Ke could easily guess that the person Xiao Yiheng was so worried about must be Li Cheng.
Xiao Yiheng took out his phone under the cover of the desk and took a look at it.
There were only a few messages in the chat history.
[Sunday 21: 30]
Li Licheng: Damn, I’m so tired today!
Li Licheng: Today I swam # ¥¥YU% ^ (garbled code)
Perseverance: …
Perseverance: Li Cheng?
Perseverance: Chengcheng, are you asleep?
[Sunday 21: 45]
Perseverance: Chengcheng, good night.
Perseverance: Have a good rest.
[Monday 04: 45]
Li Licheng: Ahhhhh, I’m sorry!
Li Licheng: I fell asleep in the middle of typing again last night!
Li Licheng: _ (: з 」 ∠) _
Li Licheng: I’m going to wash up for morning training now!
[Monday 06: 00]
Perseverance: Good morning.
Perseverance: Come on, I have to get up and go to school too.
The same conversation happened almost every day.
In the past two weeks, Li Cheng was too tired from training. He often fainted on the bed as soon as he returned to the dormitory. Occasionally, he would force himself to send a few messages, but they would disappear in less than three minutes.
His morning training time was 5: 30 in the morning, and he had to wash up and eat breakfast at 4: 45.
The two of them lived in the same country, but because of their different schedules, they couldn’t communicate effectively.
Xiao Yiheng felt distressed and worried about him.
After all, the two of them were thousands of kilometers apart. Li Cheng couldn’t share his hardships, grievances, and anger with him right away.
Xiao Yiheng knew that Li Cheng had been training very hard recently, but he didn’t know anything else.
The most important thing was that Li Cheng had an alpha pursuer who was eyeing him covetously.
Fortunately … Li Cheng was stupid. He still didn’t know that the alpha pursuer named Zhou Jian was pursuing him.
With Li Cheng’s straightforward personality, he wouldn’t be able to understand hints in his life. He would only understand the meaning of love when Xiao Yiheng gave him a straight shot.
… I really miss his sweet orange scent.
Xiao Yiheng moved the pen in his hand and unconsciously outlined Li Cheng’s side profile in the blank space of the textbook.
His drawing skills were superb. With just a few strokes, the dazzling omega was vividly drawn on the paper.
“Hey, Old Xiao, what are you drawing?” Liu Ke, who was at the same table, stretched his head over to see what he was drawing.
Xiao Yiheng didn’t want others to know that he could draw. He quickly turned a page of the book to cover up his doodle.
At this moment, the class broadcast suddenly rang!
The unexpected broadcast not only interrupted Liu Ke’s curiosity, but also interrupted the teacher’s lecture on the podium.
The principal’s voice came from the loudspeaker — —
“Teachers and students, please pay attention. We have received a notice from the fire department. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, the school will undergo a comprehensive maintenance and replacement of the fire protection system. This involves the first, second, and third year teaching buildings as well as the comprehensive laboratory building. Therefore, this Friday, the school will have a day off.
I would like to remind all students that the final exam is coming. Even if it’s a holiday, don’t relax … ”
The principal’s last sentence was drowned out by the screams and shouts of all the students.
A holiday!
A sudden holiday!!
Even if it was only one day, it was a full three days of holiday including last Saturday and Sunday!
Even a top student like the Grade 12 (1) class couldn’t stop their restless hearts from racing.
“We suddenly have three days of holiday,” the girl sitting in the front row said excitedly, “This is enough for us to go to the neighboring city, right?”
“Hey, hey, hey, let me remind you.”
Liu Ke knocked on the table and reminded her, “For third year students, there is no such thing as a holiday!”
“Tch, I can’t even think about it?
It’s not illegal to think about it. ”
“That’s true. It’s not illegal to think about it.”
Liu Ke touched his chin, “Then why don’t we dream bigger? It’s a waste to go to the neighboring city for three days. Why don’t we go to the neighboring province?”
The girl laughed, “Going to the neighboring province for three days? Only you can think of that.”
“What’s wrong? Transportation is so advanced now. How long would it take for me to fly there and then fly back?”
The two of them bickered with each other, as if they could really throw away the endless papers and start a temporary trip that they could leave whenever they wanted.
In the end, the girl pulled Xiao Yiheng into the battle.
“Almighty Xiao, tell me. Do you think it’s better to go to the neighboring city or the neighboring province for three days of holiday?”
Liu Ke pursed his lips, “It’s useless to ask Old Xiao. He’ll definitely say it’s best to do the papers at home …”
“It’s best to go to the capital for three days.”
Xiao Yiheng looked down at the doodles he had drawn on the page and whispered, “No, it’s actually only Friday.
Just like Liu Ke said, we’ll fly there and fly back. ”
“???” Liu Ke was shocked, “You’re not talking about a trip. You’re talking about an adventure.”
The corners of Xiao Yiheng’s mouth curled up slightly.
Yes, this was indeed an adventure.
Every Friday night, his parents had social engagements and often didn’t get home until late at night.
Huacheng No. 1 High School had a temporary holiday on Friday. He would pretend that everything was normal at 6: 30 in the morning, carry his schoolbag, and set off from home. It only took four hours to fly from Huacheng to the capital. He was expected to arrive at noon.
He would fly back at 7: 00 in the evening and land at 11: 00 in the evening. He would be home before midnight.
As for the camera, he could try to use the previous video to tamper with the camera records. Anyway, he went straight to his room to do his homework every day after he got home. The camera’s resolution wasn’t high, but it was enough to fool everyone.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yiheng immediately opened the phone app and prepared to book the plane ticket.
When he saw the date on Friday, he was suddenly stunned — because that day happened to be his 18th birthday.
His coming-of-age ceremony was going to be a thrilling adventure.
