After Becoming the Alpha Protagonist, I Snatched the Cannon Fodder Omega

“No need, I’m done cleaning.”

The room was clean and tidy.
The furniture was carefully wiped, and some even had wet water stains.
The bed was covered with lovely pink sheets and quilts, and at first glance it was Ling Dang’s, while the floor near the bed was simply covered with a layer of cushions, with pillows and thin quilts, which should be where Ling Mu slept.

Ling Mu finally folded the quilt on the bed, straightened up and wiped the large drops of sweat on his forehead.

A faint floral fragrance lingered in the room.

Qiu Zhenyang squinted, and when he entered the dormitory, he realized that Ling Mu had not turned on the air conditioner.

It’s the sweltering heat of September now, and it’s already very hot without the air conditioner, let alone tidying up in the bedroom for a long time.
Although the window was opened for ventilation, there was no wind outside, and it had no effect at all.
Seeing Ling Mu’s blushing cheeks and the sweat-soaked shirt at this moment, Qiu Zhenyang felt very uncomfortable.

“Why don’t you turn on the air conditioner when it’s so hot?” Qiu Zhenyang raised his wrist and clicked the options on the terminal.
The air-conditioning system of the entire dormitory started to operate, and it took less than ten seconds to make people feel cool.

Ling Mu lifted the hem of his shirt and wiped the sweat from his forehead, revealing the clear lines of his thin and tough waist and abdomen.

He didn’t care much and said, “Save electricity.”

Qiu Zhenyang only felt a flash in front of his eyes.
Throat bobbing a few times, he opened his mouth and closed it again with difficulty.
The air conditioner was turned on, but the temperature felt even hotter than before.

Walking over and closing the window, Qiu Zhenyang looked at the road below.
His voice was a little hoarse between words: “No need to save this money.
Ling Dang is still young, if she gets heat stroke from the heat, the losses will outweigh the gain.”

Ling Mu was silent for a moment, and nodded in response.

After all, he loves his sister dearly and is reluctant to bear her to suffer too much.
As for utility bills, as long as he finds a job in the school’s commercial street as soon as possible, it’s not a big problem.
It doesn’t matter if he works hard, his sister can’t always suffer.

Seeing that Ling Mu had almost finished tidying up the room, Qiu Zhenyang asked, “You guys haven’t eaten dinner, have you? Bring Ling Dang out with me and let’s grab dinner.
I happen to have two friends, let’s get to know each other together.”

Friends? The friends of this young master should also be rich boys with scary backgrounds.

Ling Mu pursed his lower lip, and his slightly frowning brows looked a little cold under the sharp facial features: “No, Ling Dang and I have already eaten, thank you.”

He’s already eaten? After eating, the little girl was so happy to get a fruit just now? No matter how much that girl likes it, she has to have stomach space to hold it!

Qiu Zhenyang immediately saw that Ling Mu was lying, but did not expose him.
He knew that Ling Mu didn’t like to deal with people, and his mother’s attachment to a wealthy family made him unwilling to deal with rich people.
So he didn’t say more, and felt a little regret.

But regret is regret, Qiu Zhenyang has the patience to help Ling Mu emerge from the shadow of the past little by little.

“That’s alright, I’ll go out first.
Oh, my mom put food in the fridge.
It’s easy to spoil, so you and Ling Dang can help me eat some.” Qiu Zhenyang waved farewell, and went downstairs to say goodbye to Ling Dang before going out.

On the tree-lined road leading to the eastern dorms, Qiu Zhenyang, Zhuo Hang and Yuan Chenyu met up, and the three walked around campus together.

After learning of each other’s situation, Qiu Zhenyang found out that the three of them were assigned to Class A1, which was a good thing.
To celebrate, the three of them went to the cafeteria to book a booth, ordered a lot of dishes and chatted while eating, and didn’t return to the dorms until nine o’clock.

When Qiu Zhenyang got home, Ling Mu and Ling Dang had already returned to their room to rest, so he went straight to take a bath and sleep.

A good night’s sleep, when Qiu Zhenyang went downstairs the next morning, he saw Ling Mu take two tubes of nutritional supplements and stuffed them into Ling Dang’s small schoolbag.

“You only give her this for a day?” Qiu Zhenyang frowned.
Although nutritional supplements can indeed provide nutrition for the body, children are still growing.
Many adults will often take nutritional supplements, but when they are young, their parents will make some effort to provide normal meals.

Ling Mu raised his head and glanced at Qiu Zhenyang without replying.

Ling Dang grinned and said, “We want to save money! My brother said, when he goes to the school’s commercial street1think a business street or a university village with things for students to work and earn money, he will prepare food for Ling Dang!”

“Commercial Street?” Qiu Zhenyang’s eyebrows raised.
He wandered over there when hanging out with Yuan Chenyu and Zhuo Hang yesterday.
Interstellar Academy has a large number of people and people usually only leave on holidays, so the commercial street was very well developed.
The stores are very popular on weekdays, and there are indeed many students working there.

“Ling Dang we’re leaving, I’ll take you to the school gate.” Ling Mu took Ling Dang’s little hand and waved it at Qiu Zhenyang as a farewell.

Qiu Zhenyang replied “Be careful on the road”, and waited for the door to close before going to the kitchen to take a look.

He opened the fridge, and saw the contents inside were still the same as yesterday.

Although this result was expected, Qiu Zhenyang still wanted to sigh.
Don’t know how others would feel seeing his expression.
Anyway, right now, all he wants to do is give Ling Mu good things, as if this can make up for what he has suffered in the past.
Let alone watching him and his sister drink nutritional supplements every day, even the living expenses have to be earned by working hard…

Thinking too much is useless.
After making a simple breakfast from some fruits, Qiu Zhenyang headed out.

“…Students, the students of our A1 class are the top 100 alphas who performed best in the entrance test, and will also become the key training objects of the school.
In the next four years of college, I hope you can live up to expectations.
Forge ahead and become useful talents for the Federation and the entire interstellar space!”

The head teacher, Yu Xiaojie, was giving an impassioned speech on the podium, but Qiu Zhenyang under the stage was drowsy.

He squinted and yawned, turned his head in boredom, and found several others bored like him.
On the other hand, Cao Shuhuan, who ranked first in the test, listened very carefully.
When the head teacher was particularly excited, he would applaud in response.

Maybe it was Cao Shuhuan’s support that made Yu Xiaojie happy, or maybe it was because of his dazzling first-place results.
In short, after the speech was over, he was directly appointed as squad leader, and asked to lead the class to change into uniform and prepare for military training in the afternoon.

“I say, isn’t the ‘hair restorer’ launched by the research institute already perfect.
Why is the top of our class’s teacher still as bald as a mirror?” Yuan Chenyu, who was beside Qiu Zhenyang, was complaining to Zhuo Hang, who was on his other side, as they slowly walked forward with the class.

Zhuo Hang laughed at his words.
“Maybe even hair restoration is useless for him? Anyway, this is not bad.
In case he’s behind in class and we’re lazing off, the reflection will remind us!”

Qiu Zhenyang was amused by the two, but because he had something in his heart, he had no interest in getting involved in the topic.

After thinking about it, he decided to tell them frankly: “I want to find a way to make money.
Do you have any suggestions?”

“Make money? Was your brain left at the door? Don’t know how many gold mines are at home, yet you’re still worried about how to make money?”

Zhuo Hang shoved Qiu Zhenyang with disgust.
“So annoying, lunch is on you!”

Qiu Zhenyang thought his inexplicable behavior of sponging a meal quite shameless.

“Okay, be serious.
I want to start my own business, the kind that has nothing to do with my family.” Qiu Zhenyang paused, scratched his temples, and added, “Of course, we still need upfront funds.
But after I make a profit, I won’t ask my family for money again.”

A wealthy family is indeed beneficial.
Qiu Zhenyang just came here, and there was no other way to get the principal except for relying on his family.
However, he is still young and wasn’t bothered about this, and he can take money with peace of mind.

“Are you serious?” Zhuo Hang was the same age as Qiu Zhenyang, but saw a firmness on his face.

“En, how about you? Have you ever thought about starting your own independent business?” Qiu Zhenyang shot back.

Zhuo Hang and Yuan Chenyu looked at each other, their expressions were a little confused.
As a standard second generation of the rich and distinguished, they have never had any money worries since young.
They were used to being supported by their family, and neither of them ever considered Qiu Zhenyang’s words before.

Let alone them, even the original body never considered it.
In the original text, the forces behind the original body all came from his family, and he never thought of starting his own business.

“But… we still have four years to study, and we usually live at school.
How can we start a business?” Yuan Chenyu was a little interested, but also understood that starting a business is not that easy.
Zhuo Hang also nodded.

Qiu Zhenyang’s lips twitched, and shared his conclusion from browsing Starnet a few days ago.
“I recently watched some of the most popular virtual games, and found the types of games are too singular.
Apart from urban construction and interstellar wars, the rest aren’t very interesting and quite boring.”

Qiu Zhenyang was in contact with many games before transmigrating, and he himself was also interested in gaming, so he focused on this aspect.
There aren’t many games here, and the contents are a little boring and not novel enough.
Even if virtual game technology has matured in the interstellar, the games aren’t any better than his original world.
Players can directly enter the game warehouse to experience the fun of the virtual world.
Won’t players be excited to death if they use the games from his original world?

After arriving for so many days, he noticed that although technology has advanced, there is a lack of innovation on many entertainment-related things.
Even food and drink are so sloppy; the simple ingredients look good, but when cooked, all taste like canned herring.

Just because of this, Qiu Zhenyang feels that his money is bright!

“Singular? It’s boring?” Yuan Chenyu glared.
“Zhenyang, do you know how much profit the most popular games can bring to a company every year? Yixing Technology relied on ‘Spark’ to develop into one of the five major consortiums in just ten years!”

Zhuo Hang also echoed: “I have played several games, all of which are quite good.
I even lost hundreds of thousands on them.”

Qiu Zhenyang shrugged, noncommittal.

If such games can become so popular, Qiu Zhenyang can guarantee that if he brings some game modes from his previous world, he will definitely make those players explode!

The three of them chatted on the way, and slowly followed the class to receive their training uniforms.
Qiu Zhenyang slapped the two brothers who were still chatting hotly, smiled and said, “Okay, let’s talk about this later.
If you have any news or thoughts, just mention it to me, don’t worry too much.”

Anyway, this matter can’t be rushed.
He has no technology and no team, and taking the first step is a problem.
