After Ditching Four Powerful Alphas, I Differentiated into an Omega - Chapter 43
Her heart was pounding, as if it was about to burst out of her chest.
Qiao Yu tried to calm herself down.
“System, what does it mean that Sister Song and Auntie Ye were on my test results both times?”
She wasn’t genuinely asking the system.
The moment the system was about to speak, the girl’s sweet voice, full of laughter, rang out.
“It proves that we have a fated connection!”
The fact that this connection hasn’t been broken twice proves that the red thread between us is still intact, and the Old Man under the Moon has tied several tight knots!
Her red lips were curled in a wild smile.
At this moment, the girl, with her slightly childish face, looked like a soul-stealing vixen.
However, she was surprised that the female lead wasn’t in her match results this time.
She didn’t dwell on it too much.
Qiao Yu guessed that the moment her soul merged with this body, the fate between the original host and the female lead had come to an end.
Last time, she didn’t get a new genetic test; she just used the original host’s results.
So, the results from her own genetic matching would naturally be a little different from the original host’s.
Qiao Jinghuai noticed the increasingly deranged smile on his daughter’s face and instinctively shivered.
She really smiles just like her mom did back then!
Back then, his wife had taken down a sturdy man like him, who was a whopping 1.9 meters tall, with that same gentle, spring-like smile!
He didn’t know who his daughter had set her sights on, but thinking about her personality, Qiao Jinghuai silently lit a candle for all three women.
May you all be blessed if she’s noticed you.
Although normally alphas were the natural enemies of omegas, when they encountered a mutated omega like his wife and daughter, who didn’t play by the rules, it was best to just kneel down and stop resisting.
His daughter’s eyes were smiling happily.
Mrs. Qiao expressionlessly raised her hand and massaged her temples.
This was her habitual gesture when she felt helpless.
At this point, she couldn’t tell if getting this result was a good thing or a bad thing.
However, being able to use this to reject Lu Shenghui’s wolfish ambitions shouldn’t be too bad.
She stood up from her seat.
The woman looked at Qiao Yu, whose eyes had followed her.
“Weren’t you about to study?”
Her voice was faint, and it was impossible to tell if she was happy or sad.
“Go to bed early after you finish studying.”
Mrs. Qiao subtly reminded her, “Since you’ve decided to get into Beijing University, you should focus on your studies and put your energy into it.”
She believed that her words were clear and that her meaning was obvious.
But when she saw her daughter’s face instantly light up, she wasn’t so sure anymore.
Her mother’s earnest advice went in one of Qiao Yu’s ears and out the other, and it instantly turned into: You can date, but you can’t let your grades slip one bit. Especially, it can’t affect you getting into college. Other than that, you can do whatever you want. Even if you want to turn the capital upside down, I have no objections. Qiao Yu immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
“I know, Mom! You’re so good to me!”
A feeling of a heart attack rushed to her chest.
Mrs. Qiao sighed imperceptibly and shook her head.
Forget it.
A parent’s concern is their own.
If Qiao Yu could really capture someone on the list, whether it was Ye Yunjian, Song Wanying, or Bai Yiyu, she would accept it.
It’s better than the naive and sweet daughter of the family next door who is stubborn and insists on marrying a poor and useless alpha.
Qiao Yu was so happy she couldn’t sleep.
Looking at the large pile of cash on the bedside table, she almost grinned from ear to ear.
She turned over to a more relaxed position, lying on her side on the bed.
Qiao Yu tapped her finger on the matching results.
I guess I haven’t officially met Auntie Bai yet.
Whether it was the quick chat at her birthday party or the brief encounter at the hospital, she hadn’t had a chance to have a proper conversation with her.
Her clear eyes blinked.
Qiao Yu took off the face mask and sighed regretfully.
It’s a shame Lu Shangyi’s name wasn’t on the matching results.
She got up and washed her face with warm water.
Qiao Yu read for two more hours before going to bed.
Recently, Qiao Yu had been obsessed with studying and was incredibly well-behaved.
Even Mrs. Qiao came to check on her several times to confirm if she was really serious about getting into college.
However, this peace didn’t last for long and was broken by a chance encounter.
An omega girl was sitting obediently on a luxurious leather sofa in the company lobby.
Her skin was fair, her hair was dark and shiny, her features were delicate, and her nose was straight and pretty.
Her legs were long and slender under a pleated skirt.
Her ankles were so thin that they looked like they could be crushed with a gentle squeeze.
The girl looked gentle and harmless.
Her soft hair framed her face, which had smooth lines, and she had the gentle aura of a little bunny.
The lights in the lobby were bright.
They mixed with the rare sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and fell on the girl.
She radiated a pearly, soft glow, and she was overly beautiful.
People were coming and going, but the girl remained quiet.
Her face showed no sign of impatience, and she seemed very patient.
Everyone who passed by was drawn to her and instinctively softened their footsteps, afraid of disturbing this fairy-like person.
Someone had been observing for a long time.
After confirming that the person was a human, he gentlemanly and politely walked up to her.
“I wonder if I have the honor of having dinner with you, miss?”
The girl looked up.
Her voice was just as gentle when she declined.
“I’m sorry, I’m waiting for someone.”
The man left disappointed.
Other men with the same intention shook their heads.
If even an excellent man like Mr. Yang didn’t succeed, there was no way they could.
Although they were disappointed, they became more and more curious.
They wondered who this breathtaking person was that a girl this beautiful was patiently waiting for.
The receptionist lowered her voice and discussed with her colleague.
“Why does this girl look so familiar?”
“Duh, how could you not be familiar with the Qiao family’s daughter? Didn’t she make the news several times a few days ago for differentiating into an omega? Did you forget what she looks like so quickly?”
The female colleague who spoke first was silent for a moment.
She couldn’t help but defend herself.
“But didn’t everyone say that Qiao Yu is a tramp? This person in front of me looks so pure. She doesn’t seem like that…”
“What do you know? The purer the appearance, the wilder the private life. No rumor in the world comes out of thin air. Since everyone is saying it, there must be solid evidence.”
The female colleague was a little convinced, but she still found it hard to associate the girl’s pure face with the cheating tramp everyone was talking about.
“You really can’t judge a book by its cover.”
Her exclamation was suddenly interrupted by a faint voice.
“Who can’t be judged by their cover?”
Bai Yiyu’s calm gaze fell on the two employees.
The employees were startled.
They quickly composed themselves and stood up straight.
“Ms. Bai.”
The two of them held their breath and didn’t dare to make a sound.
Although Bai Yiyu looked gentle on the surface, she always gave people a feeling of being hard to approach.
Perhaps it was because she grew up in a military compound and trained in a military camp for several years.
Not many people dared to be presumptuous in front of her.
The receptionist was so scared she was sweating.
Fortunately, Bai Yiyu only glanced at her and then moved her gaze.
She walked toward the little girl who had also stood up.
Qiao Yu happily ran toward her, holding a rabbit-shaped cake.
“Auntie Bai!”
She flatteringly handed the small cake to Bai Yiyu.
Bai Yiyu fell into a deep thought as she looked at the childish thing.
She didn’t reach out to take it.
Qiao Yu skillfully took her hand and gently placed the cake in her palm.
“Auntie Bai, don’t mind how it looks. It tastes very good. I even paid a scalper five hundred yuan to wait in line for me to get it.”
Bai Yiyu glanced at the rabbit cake again and looked down at the smiling girl.
“Why did you think of coming here?”
The girl said “oh” softly when she heard that.
She then naturally explained, “My parents arranged to have dinner at the hotel over here, but something came up, and they’ll be a little late. So, my mom told me to wait for her here with you.”
“And I also haven’t had a chance to thank you, Auntie Bai, for coming to see me at the hospital last time.”
She lowered her voice.
Qiao Yu asked tentatively, “Auntie Bai, if you’re busy, I won’t bother you.”
Although she said she was sorry, her clear black and white eyes were full of anticipation.
Bai Yiyu lowered her hand, holding the small cake.
She considerately replied, “I’m not busy,” according to the girl’s thoughts.
The other person’s expression brightened up.
But she still pretended to be shy and asked, “Really?”
After Bai Yiyu nodded and confirmed it again, the girl finally moved closer to her happily.
“I was afraid of bothering you, Auntie Bai. Speaking of which, Auntie Bai, you’re my mom’s classmate, but I’ve rarely seen you all these years and haven’t gotten to know you well. It’s really illogical.”
She cozied up to Bai Yiyu naturally.
Bai Yiyu led her to the private elevator.
“I’m usually busy. It’s normal that you don’t see me.”
Bai Yiyu’s eyes sank, and she started to guess the little girl’s intentions.
As the saying goes, unusual kindness is a sign of ulterior motives.
Qiao Yu had always been cold to her in the past.
It didn’t make sense for her to be so enthusiastic now.
Bai Yiyu didn’t let Qiao Yu see through her.
She pushed open her office door.
“Make yourself at home.”
She poured a cup of hot water for her.
Bai Yiyu sat down.
“How have you been feeling these past few days?”
“It’s okay.”
Qiao Yu blinked.
“It’s just a little unusual.”
The woman always kept her posture straight.
She had a tall and straight demeanor like a pine tree.
Coupled with her clear, cold, and heroic features, she exuded an aura that said “don’t bother.”
Bai Yiyu was tall, and her legs were long.
Her appearance was almost perfect.
She sat quietly in front of her, and she had an attraction that made Qiao Yu want to jump into her arms.
Bai Yiyu’s expression was gentle.
Besides, she couldn’t be strict with such a young girl.
“Now that you’ve differentiated, you have to learn to protect yourself.”
Thinking about the several men who had been staring at her with wide eyes, Bai Yiyu’s slanted eyes became a little more serious.
“Especially don’t run off with strangers.”
What happened at the bar was an example.
If even a classmate could be so dangerous, how much more so a stranger?
Qiao Yu held back her laughter.
“But to me, Auntie Bai, you’re also a stranger.”
“…”
Bai Yiyu was silent for a moment.
She looked at her helplessly and changed the subject.
“When will your parents arrive?”
Qiao Yu looked down at the time.
“About an hour or so.”
An hour?
That was about the time she would be done with her work.
She turned to Qiao Yu and gestured to the lounge next door.
“You can study first. If you get tired, go in and rest for a few minutes.”
“I still have a little work to finish.”
Qiao Yu nodded understandingly.
“Then you go ahead and get busy, Auntie Bai.”
Afraid that her presence would affect Bai Yiyu’s work, Qiao Yu was very quiet and deliberately kept all sounds to a minimum.
The system looked at her intentionally making things difficult for herself and was confused.
“Host, you haven’t even won over Auntie Ye and Sister Song, and you’re already making things harder for yourself?”
Qiao Yu’s red lips curled into a smile.
“I’m just a simple-minded person who wants to bring happiness to everyone on my matching list.”
“Isn’t it a meaningful thing to sacrifice myself to make all the aunties and sisters happy?”
Qiao Yu seriously criticized her.
“My mission in this book is to make the world a better place!”
System: “…” That’s a twisted argument.
With a living person right in her line of sight, it was hard for Bai Yiyu not to notice her.
Qiao Yu kept distracting her.
An hour later, Bai Yiyu finally managed to finish her work.
She picked up her bag and car keys and said to Qiao Yu, who was also packing her school bag, “Let’s go. I’ll give you a ride.”
Qiao Yu quickly refused.
“No need. The hotel is very close. I’ll just walk over.”
The woman suddenly stopped.
Qiao Yu bumped into her back and looked up with a blank expression.
Bai Yiyu looked at her.
Seeing her firm attitude, she could only agree.
The hotel was indeed very close, about 500 meters away.
Bai Yiyu stood at the entrance and reminded her, “Be careful on the way. Keep your phone on at all times. Remember to send me a message after you get to the hotel and see your parents…”
Behind the tinted car window, Lu Shangyi’s deep eyes quietly watched the well-behaved Qiao Yu nod.
The meaning in her eyes was hard to decipher.
The car slowly drove past.
Lu Shangyi looked away.
Qiao Yu’s matching results should have come out these past two days.
She knew her name wouldn’t be on the list as usual, but what about Bai Yiyu this time?
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The secretary was giving a report in the passenger seat.
“Ms. Lu, I’ve already secured the artists and scripts Ms. Qiao recommended.”
The person paused.
“However, Young Master Lu has been secretly trying to hinder us recently.”
Lu Shangyi pulled her thoughts back.
Her voice was too calm to show any emotion.
“Don’t worry about him.”
“He’ll be too busy to take care of himself soon.”
Qiao Yu suddenly felt a chill down her spine, but she looked around and didn’t find anything unusual.
She scratched her face, feeling confused.
Qiao Yu became alert.
“System, is someone trying to harm me again?”
The system glanced at Lu Shangyi’s car.
“No.”
No one is trying to harm you.
It’s just that a sister is quietly watching you from the shadows.
Qiao Yu didn’t really enjoy dinner that night.
However, she heard some useful information when she was listening to the adults chat: Lu Shenghui was going crazy again.
The adults didn’t go into detail about the specific situation, but their tones all seemed to suggest taking advantage of him while he was down.
Lu Shenghui had done a lot of crazy things over the years.
Qiao Yu could almost imagine the storm that was about to come.
She wasn’t worried that this storm would affect Lu Shangyi.
After all, Lu Shangyi wasn’t deeply involved with her family’s company.
The storm ended a week later.
Qiao Yu checked the market value of the Lu family’s company.
It didn’t drop much, but two important projects were snatched away.
Lu Shenghui was furious about losing these two projects.
Even his trusted secretary, who had been with him for many years, didn’t dare to get close to him.
Today, Lu Shangyi came back to this house, which was rare.
Qiao Yu heard her voice and ran out.
“Sister Lu, are you okay? Were you affected at all…”
Her voice suddenly quieted down.
Qiao Yu blinked at Chu Mi.
Chu Mi slowly turned around and looked at the child who had just spoken.
She gently raised an eyebrow.
How could your Sister Lu be affected?
Your delicate Sister Lu, who can be blown away by a gust of wind, was the one who started this.
Chu Mi didn’t expose Lu Shangyi’s act.
She wisely left.
“I’ll come over another day.”
The woman elegantly walked past her.
After she was far away, Qiao Yu took small steps toward Lu Shangyi.
Her attention was drawn to the book in her hand.
“Sister Lu, you still read this?”
She gently took the book from Lu Shangyi’s hand and then pulled out her test papers from behind her back.
She smiled flatteringly and said, “Sister Lu, can you help me with this problem?”
Lu Shangyi looked up, helplessly watching Qiao Yu place the study materials in front of her.
“Which part don’t you understand?”
“This part.”
She pointed with her finger.
Qiao Yu pulled a chair over and sat down.
“They all say you’re a great student. Now, besides you, I don’t know who to ask.”
After saying that, Qiao Yu unconsciously started telling her about the things she had experienced at school over the past few days.
From big things like a classmate differentiating to small things like where to eat and what movies to watch.
She talked about everything in detail, and it had a very homey feel.
Only…
Lu Shangyi gently raised an eyebrow.
Is the little girl turning me into her sister after not seeing her name on the list again and again?
