Chapter 221: The Commander Who's All About Plain Water is Head Over Heels (4)

After comforting Song Chuyi, Yuan Chao left with the association members.

Not long after, Song Chuyi received compensation from the association, amounting to a full 100,000 credits.

Song Chuyi checked the consumption level of this world; a basic nutrient pack costs ten credits, so 100,000 credits could last a long time.

However, this is just the ordinary consumption level; a spoiled Omega can spend up to tens of thousands of credits a day.

Looking at it this way, the 100,000 credits didn't seem enough.

Song Chuyi touched the gland at the back of his neck, lay back, logged into the StarNet, and started catching up on the latest gossip!

The first headline on StarNet was #Commander Pei Jingnian's Frequent Heat Periods#, and the second was the news about his gland being damaged.

Clicking in, there were all sorts of comments.

"Which Alpha is so bold, show yourself and face the consequences!"

"I heard it was the Omega who damaged it himself, oh my, I can't imagine how painful that must be."

"This is a civilian Omega, right? Probably nothing will come of it."

"Has the Omega Association not yet found out the results? I have a strong suspicion that Pei Jingnian injured this little Omega."

…………

The public opinion isn't looking good for Pei Jingnian.

Song Chuyi stroked his chin, ready to say a few words for Pei Jingnian, but unexpectedly, Pei Jingnian himself appeared.

"Pei Jingnian: No harm. I will take responsibility."

Two sentences, but with opposite meanings.

If there was no harm, why take responsibility?

Many people raised this question, just as the Omega Association completed its investigation, clarifying that Pei Jingnian indeed did not harm Song Chuyi.

Song Chuyi's gland was damaged by himself.

As for the reason, to protect the Omega's privacy, it was not disclosed.

Once this announcement was made, some doubted, some believed deeply, and some just laughed it off.

Soon, the news of the Zerg invasion of planet XR-233 took over the headlines, pushing down the entertainment gossip.

Nowadays, Zerg invasions are becoming more frequent, and no one knows when the Zerg will invade their own planet.

Some are trembling with fear, while others are reveling in joy.

A mix of fear and celebration, like the end of the world, is happening in this world.

After browsing through StarNet, Song Chuyi generally understood the situation and then logged off.

He got up and walked out of the ward.

The doctor waiting outside saw him come out and asked with concern, "How are you feeling now?"

"I'm fine," Song Chuyi smiled, "Thank you, doctor."

"I want to be discharged."

Apart from the damage to his gland, he had no other injuries.

A session in the treatment pod would fix everything; there was no need to stay in the hospital.

Noting his good condition, the doctor agreed.

After leaving the hospital, Song Chuyi opened Pei Jingnian's StarNet profile, followed him, and sent a private message.

"Commander Pei, how do you intend to handle this?"

At that moment, Pei Jingnian had just finished the investigation by the Omega Association.

The people at the Omega Association didn't like him much; those Omegas preferred strong-smelling pheromones, a symbol of strength and conquest.

His pheromones weren’t exactly a hit with the Omegas.

Although he didn't need their approval.

As soon as Pei Jingnian left the association, he received news of the Zerg invasion on planet XR-233.

Planet XR-233 belonged to the Second Legion, which wasn't under his jurisdiction, but he had a good relationship with its commander. Hearing the news, he inquired further.

"How's the situation there?"

Rong Jing quickly replied, "No immediate issues, but the Zerg invasions have been increasingly frequent these past two years."

"Understood," Pei Jingnian said as he walked briskly. "By the way, what about Song Chuyi?"

Rong Jing glanced at his holographic interface, "He's already been discharged."

Pei Jingnian nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Protect him."

He then reached out to the Second Legion’s commander.

He didn't see the private message Song Chuyi had sent; he had already set his account to do-not-disturb mode, where all messages except from friends were intercepted by the system.

Coincidentally, the two were not friends, so Pei Jingnian missed Song Chuyi's message.

Song Chuyi waited at the hospital entrance for half an hour. Seeing no reply from Pei Jingnian, he guessed what had happened.

He strolled out casually, following the host body’s memories back to the dormitory.

The host body had already completed its graduation project and was just waiting for it to be approved to graduate.

Counting the days, graduation was in three days.

No wonder the host had been so anxious.

The Betas he shared the dorm with had already moved out for work.

Now, he was the only one left in the dormitory.

Song Chuyi sorted through the host body's belongings and found that the host had studied classical studies.

In simple terms, it was a straightforward and popular choice for many Omegas.

However, it's true that finding a job is tough, and most Omegas choose to marry an Alpha after graduation, relying on an Alpha for support.

Apart from this, Song Chuyi also discovered something very important to him.

Because of their unique physiology, Omegas can only consume natural food, so the nutritional supplements that Alphas and Betas drink are completely unsuitable for him.

Natural food is also extremely expensive, with a single cabbage costing five thousand credits.

The hundred thousand credits he has might only last him a week.

The looming crisis surprisingly sparked some ambition in Song Chuyi.

He decided to write novels to support himself!

It just so happens to align with his major.

Song Chuyi logged into the largest novel website on the Star Network—Starlight Novels.

He then registered a simple pen name—Chuyi.

Without wasting time, he started writing.

He wrote continuously for three days.

Three days later, Song Chuyi received a notification from the school that his graduation project had been approved, along with a notice asking him to move out of the dormitory by tomorrow.

Looking at his hundred-thousand-word draft, Song Chuyi first uploaded thirty thousand words.

He stood up, stretched, and poked the sleepy little white bun in his mind.

"Xiaotong, let's go find the villain."

Xiaotong: "Yay! The host finally remembers the mission!"

Yes, that's right, in Xiaotong's view, the host's rare ambition is just a distraction.

This system is meant to stop the villain from destroying the world, not to chase careers!

Song Chuyi chuckled, "Let's go!"

Meanwhile, after a busy day, Pei Jingnian finally had a chance to sit down and rest.

He directly opened Starlight Novels, intending to see if there were any good novels to read recently.

Soon, a novel titled "Sweet Seduction! The Stoic Commander is Addicted to Spoiling Me!" caught his attention.

The title... has a certain magic to it.

He eagerly clicked on it and started reading. After more than ten minutes, Pei Jingnian's eyes darkened as he looked at the author's pen name—Chuyi.

Is it a coincidence?

His eyes flickered as he pulled up the background of "Chuyi," and sure enough, it was the Song Chuyi he knew.

Thinking about the content of the novel, his eyes darkened further, and he dialed Rong Jing's video call.

As soon as the call connected, he said in a deep voice:

"That little Omega likes me."

Rong Jing: "What?"

Pei Jingnian said confidently, "He sent me a love letter."

"He even posted it on Star Net."

"He’s totally into me."

Rong Jing was speechless...

His friend had gone completely bonkers.
