Wei Xiu truly has fallen from grace. Ever since that day, he constantly has Xu Yunchun massage him and change his clothes. If the beta questions his decision to remove his glands, he has him sniff them.
A summary of his experience after his fall from grace: the more disgraceful, the happier he is. He’s completely forgotten the meaning of decency.
He’s also not sure why, after his fall from grace, he acts more like a young master than ever before.
At the same time, he can wholly see that Xu Yunchun indeed feels something, it’s just that he stubbornly refuses to admit it. But, he doesn’t care anymore, their lives are so long anyway, he can just casually spend time with Xu Yunchun.

Every day, Xu Yunchun sniffs pheromones into lightheadedness, making him more and more against the idea of Wei Xiu removing his glands.
Wei Xiu: “I made a surgical appointment for next week.”
Xu Yunchun: “No!”
Wei Xiu: “I’ve already decided. If you’re gonna miss them so much, then smell them as much as you can now.”
Xu Yunchun pouts, still struggling to come to terms with the idea of the young master losing the advantages of being an S-Rank alpha. Wei Xiu extends an arm to him, and the beta climbs into his arms, still pouting.
These past two days, Wei Xiu would constantly say to Xu Yunchun “It’s tiring to stand. Don’t you love hugging your young master?” and have him climb into his embrace and smell his pheromones.
The beta would whine as he sniffed, then sniff until he was lightheaded.
Xu Yunchun: “Do pheromones contain some alcohol? Why do I feel so lightheaded after sniffing for a while?”
Wei Xiu: “Stop sniffing if it makes you sick.”
Xu Yunchun: “No, I can’t waste it.”
The two are all too naive. They are unaware of what it means to let someone sniff your glands in the ABO world. And they mistakenly believe that Xu Yunchun’s dizziness is simply an effect of scent overload.

Finally, Xu Yunchun comes down with a fever.
Just three days before Wei Xiu’s surgery, Xu Yunchun develops a high fever.
His fever came suddenly; not long before he was longingly pleading for the young master to find a way to extract his pheromones, then, half an hour later, Wei Xiu discovered him passed out on the sofa, whole body scalding hot.
Wei Xiu sends him to the hospital. But after one night, Xu Yunchun’s fever still hasn’t gone down. The doctor informs Wei Xiu that Xu Yunchun’s hormones are extremely unstable.
“Before the fever, did you two have sexual relations?” the doctor looks intently at the S-rank alpha before him.
Wei Xiu, face cherry red: “No, we don’t have that kind of relationship.”
The doctor, doubtful: “But his body is filled with a high concentration of alpha pheromones…unless he has another partner?”
Wei Xiu instantly shakes his head: “He spends every day with me.”
A young master fanatic like him? Be with someone else? That would be highly improbable.
The doctor: “Impossible, alpha pheromones would not just appear in his body without proper reason.”
Wei Xi thinks carefully, then suddenly freezes: “Could it be…because I had him sniff my pheromones everyday?”
The doctor: “How so?”
Wei Xiu explains plainly. Seeing the doctor’s expression go from shock to disdain let him finally understand that their behaviour is abnormal.
The doctor: “You don’t consider THAT sexual relations? Letting someone sniff your pheromones is quite the invitation, such behaviour is already questionable. But you even released a large dose of pheromones to have him sniff?”
The doctor stared at Wei Xiu with contempt. He couldn’t have expected that behind such a sanctimonious face would lie such despicable intentions.
Wei Xiu also couldn’t have imagined such a turn of events. Without his own knowledge, he became the slimy indecent alpha luring an oblivious beta!
–
Wei Xiu, attempting to remain calm: “What is your impression of his condition?”
The doctor: “Excessive exposure to pheromones will cause the body’s hormones to destabilize. It’s normal that he’s had a fever these past few days. Don’t worry. However, his ABO gender may be affected, leading to a secondary presentation.”
Wei Xiu is shocked.
The doctor: “He may become an omega.”
Wei Xiu: “!!!”
Become an omega? Doesn’t this mean that if he doesn’t remove his glands…
The doctor: “Of course, he may also become an alpha.”
Wei Xiu: “???”
This whole situation is too complicated. Wei Xiu considers several possibilities, then asks: “Is there a surgery that allows alphas to be turned to omega…”
The doctor grits their teeth: “You insist on having him become an alpha? Scumbag!”
Wei Xiu calmly counters: “No, if he becomes an alpha, of course, I’ll become an omega.”
Wei Xiu finally understands how Xu Yunchun has been feeling. If the beta became an alpha, he couldn’t bear to have him remove his glands. And naturally, it would be even more impossible to bear the idea of him getting with another omega.
Either way, he’s already fallen from grace, becoming an omega for Xu Yunchun is no big deal.
