TLAIALS Chapter 96

Chu Yi Qiao had never expected something like this to happen. After hearing You Pan’s words, he immediately went to the children’s room.

At that moment, perhaps only a parent could truly understand the anger, sadness, and self-blame over their child being hurt.

The moment he pushed open the children’s room door, he saw Luo Qing Ye hugging Zuo Gu, seemingly crying.

Zuo Gu was patting Big Daddy’s back.

Luo Qing Ye immediately looked up at the noise.

Chu Yi Qiao met Luo Qing Ye’s red, wet, and angry eyes. He took a deep breath, as if to calm himself, but he couldn’t hold it back. He held his forehead, his expression growing colder.

“I won’t let them go. I definitely won’t let them go. Zuo Gu, come here.”

Zuo Gu obediently jumped off Big Daddy and walked over to his Daddy.

Chu Yi Qiao squatted down and cupped Zuo Gu’s little face, his eyes filled with heartache. “Daddy’s wrong. I only taught you to be sensible, polite, and learn skills, but I didn’t teach you how to protect yourselves. Now tell me what happened that day. Daddy will protect you. Daddy will teach them a lesson.”

Perhaps because his Daddy’s tone was too gentle, Zuo Gu blinked, and tears as big as beans fell.

Chu Yi Qiao lifted Zuo Gu into his arms, then stood up, patting his back gently. His gaze fell on the back of the child’s neck, thankfully finding no marks: “It’s okay. No one will hurt you again. You Pan protected you, right?”

“……En.” Zuo Gu rested his head on his Daddy’s shoulder, just in time to see You Pan at the door, his mouth pouting in grievance.

“He won’t let me tell you!” You Pan stood at the door, furious, his hands on his hips. “Big Daddy, you should scold him! I’m so angry! I told you Daddy won’t scold you!”

Zuo Gu muttered softly: “But Daddy will scold you if he finds out.”

You Pan’s expression seemed slightly guilty, as if he’d realized something.

Luo Qing Ye sensed something was wrong with You Pan: “Are you still hiding something from Daddy? Come here!” He sat down on the sofa nearby and waved at You Pan.

Perhaps because Big Daddy’s tone was too harsh, You Pan shrank back and cautiously moved closer to him.

“You can distrust anyone in this world, but you can’t distrust Daddy. Only Daddy can protect you, and only Daddy will always be here for you.” Luo Qing Ye supported You Pan’s shoulders. He glanced up and down at You Pan’s height, then glanced to the side at Zuo Gu, who was held in Chu Yi Qiao’s arms.

Alphas have the most sensitive sense of smell among ABOs. Generally, Alphas aren’t attracted to Alphas, but only one situation can make their sense of smell exceptionally sharp.

With rising living standards, children are now differentiating at an earlier age. The ABO Data Center currently records that the youngest child to differentiate is 10 years old.

Especially during the initial stages of differentiation, the sense of smell becomes particularly sensitive.

Why did he want to bite Zuo Gu? It’s likely that he smelled something on him.

Although Zuo Gu and You Pan are twins, their differences have gradually widened over the past few years. He hadn’t thought it was a sign, as Zuo Gu had always had a small appetite and naturally ate less, making him smaller than You Pan. But now, doesn’t this seem like foreshadowing?

If something really happened, he might regret it for the rest of his life.

“After gym class, the sun was blazing brightly. Zuo Gu and I were trying to walk back to the classroom around the woods when Zuo Gu accidentally bumped into the Alphas from Third Grade. We caught them smoking secretly.” You Pan recounted the events with clear logic: “Zuo Gu apologised right away, but they were still aggressive. One of them sniffed Zuo Gu’s neck and tried to bite him. Then I took a rock and smashed it in his stomach, dragging Zuo Gu along and ran off.”

Chu Yi Qiao felt Zuo Gu trembling, probably because he was frightened by this incident. He frowned, they didn’t say they couldn’t come home and tell them if they were wronged at school, did they?

“Daddy, I didn’t want you to scold You Pan.”

Zuo Gu’s soft voice reached his ear.

Chu Yi Qiao froze. He looked down at Zuo Gu: “You didn’t want us to scold You Pan for throwing stones, so you kept it from us?”

Luo Qing Ye listened and looked at You Pan.

You Pan shrugged his shoulders with an innocent look on his face: “Ge Ge didn’t let me say it, I’m also very angry.”

Luo Qing Ye slapped You Pan’s head, mindful of his strength: “Now you know he’s your Ge Ge and you need to obey him. You can’t handle your Ge being bullied, so you don’t need to tell us. Do you have the ability to protect him now? You still want to be a hero!”

You Pan quickly held his head in his hands and subconsciously glanced up at Zuo Gu, his expression slightly embarrassed.

Zuo Gu: “……” They seemed a bit foolish.

Yeah, why didn’t we tell Daddy?

The surveillance footage was obtained in less than half an hour. Knowing the exact date and location, they quickly found the footage. The footage showed the exact scene You Pan described, including the three Alphas hiding behind a tree to avoid the cameras while smoking. Even their faces were clearly visible.

Zuo Gu and You Pan were walking across the gravel path, heading through the woods to the school building. As Zuo Gu rounded a tree, he accidentally bumped into the Alpha hiding behind it and was lifted up by the Alpha.

The third year junior high school student, who had already differentiated into an Alpha, was incredibly tall and strong, and Zuo Gu couldn’t possibly resist such strength.

Then the Alpha put out his cigarette against a tree. As if he’d smelled something on Zuo Gu, he leaned over to sniff him, even trying to bite him.

Then You Pan threw a stone at the alpha.

So, after watching the surveillance footage, they contacted the school directly to have the 3 third-year junior high school students and their parents resolve the matter. Luo Qing Ye went even further, sending a driver to pick them up, forcibly.

When the Alpha’s parents heard the knock on their door, their hearts skipped a beat.

Their feet faltered when they realized who it was.

Their child, ignorant and having provoked the two young masters of the Galaxy Group, was in for a disaster.

“The Alpha is over 16, so he should be held criminally responsible for child molestation.”

The villa was packed, but the atmosphere was frozen.

When Zuo Gu saw the Alpha who had bullied him, he instinctively hugged his father’s neck and buried his face.

“Daddy, that’s him!” You Pan cursed, pointing at the tallest Alpha boy: “He’s the one who bullied Zuo Gu!”

Luo Qing Ye held You Pan, who was about to jump up, down: “Daddy will handle it, you calm down. You could have done this a long time ago, but you didn’t. Now be quiet.”

“Oh.” With his Big Daddy holding his head, You Pan could only stand there obediently.

The Alpha’s parents had never imagined their son would do such a thing, let alone bully a primary school student, let alone two young masters of the Galaxy Group.

“President Chu, President Luo, is there some misunderstanding here? My son isn’t usually like this, and it’s certainly impossible for him to bully someone for no reason—”

“Bullying?” Chu Yi Qiao’s eyes darkened, and he gently patted Zuo Gu: “You call molestation bullying? Your child is already a differentiated Alpha, so he should know exactly what sniffing and biting the back of the neck entails. If my child were an Omega, he’d be suspected of rape.”

The Alpha’s mother paled at this. She stared at her son in disbelief, then raised her hand and slapped him hard in the face: “You’re truly confused! He is just a child! Are you crazy?”

The Alpha turned away, speechless, and looked up at Zuo Gu.

The next second, he was met with a sinister, stern gaze, as if a wolf king had bitten his neck, a sense of oppression that overwhelmed him.

This was the aura of a superior Alpha.

Everyone present had been injected with a blocker, reducing their pheromone scent to 10%. This allowed gender identification, but it was harmless.

Only Luo Qing Ye’s pheromones were too potent. Even though they had been reduced to only 10%, the oppressive feeling was overwhelming. It wasn’t harmful, but it was overwhelming.

“The barrier blocks the scent, but it doesn’t make you forget you’re an Alpha, right? Now that you’ve differentiated into an Alpha, you have a responsibility to protect the vulnerable.” Luo Qing Ye stood in front of Chu Yi Qiao and confronted the rascally Alpha boy, his face livid: “Giving you abilities isn’t for bullying the vulnerable. If you find being an Alpha stressful, then I suggest you wash off the Alpha pheromones.”

The Alpha boy’s face paled.

“Even if you don’t feel pressured, this will be a lifelong burden. You made a mistake, and it will haunt you forever. You’ll have to pay for it. That price will be a record in your file of child molestation and misconduct.” Luo Qing Ye said expressionlessly.

Luo Qing Ye didn’t let the other two Alpha boys off the hook either: “And you two, your failure to dissuade him is legally considered complicity. If something goes wrong, you won’t be able to escape.”

The evidence was irrefutable, and no one could refute the facts.

Chu Yi Qiao looked at the Alpha boy’s parents: “Put yourself in their shoes. If this happened to you two, what would you think as parents if you knew something like this happened to your children? My child is only 8 years old, he hasn’t yet differentiated. Children at this stage are still confused about ABO gender. But your Alpha child is a fully differentiated Alpha. His behavior would irritate my child, and that’s illegal.”

“I will hold him accountable according to the law, even though he’s a minor.”

“And my child is a minor too. I have to protect him.”

Zuo Gu looked up at the two fathers standing in front of him, his eyes filled with admiration. Then he felt his trouser leg tug, and looking down, he saw it was You Pan.

“Come down.” You Pan whispered, tugging at him.

At that moment, he suddenly seemed to understand something.

It turned out that there really were supermen in this world. His supermen were his Daddy, his Big Daddy, and—

Luo Pan Zhi.

He jumped out of his father’s arms.

They couldn’t understand what their fathers were doing, so they ran back to the toy room to continue building their block castle.

“Thank you, You Pan.” Zuo Gu handed the blocks he was holding to You Pan across from him.

You Pan curled his lips: “Hmph, I told you ba, we can tell Daddy, but you didn’t listen.”

“I’ll listen next time.” Zuo Gu moved to sit next to You Pan, watching him slowly build a castle from the scattered blocks on the block table. “I think Daddies are supermen. They’re so awesome.”

You Pan glanced at him, puffing up his cheeks: “What about me?”

Zuo Gu leaned close to You Pan’s ear and smiled, as if whispering something: “You’re my superman too ya.”

“Since you call me superman, I’ll definitely protect you.” You Pan put his arm around Zuo Gu’s shoulder: “Don’t worry, Chu Guzhi. Wherever you are, I, Luo Pan Zhi, will be there. I won’t let anyone bully you again. This is the last time.”

At the time, Zuo Gu didn’t think these words were sincere, because You Pan loved to play.

But as he grew older, he realized that these words truly carried weight.

His younger brother really grew up to be an Alpha like his Big Daddy, protecting him and Xiao Yu.
