After Ditching Four Powerful Alphas, I Differentiated into an Omega - Chapter 50
Lu Shangyi’s tone was very aggressive; the dangerous aura around her could be felt even through the screen.
Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then let out an undignified “pfft” of laughter.
She genuinely couldn’t imagine the scene of the other person biting her.
And what was the point of two omegas nibbling on each other?
They couldn’t scent-mark one another.
Qiao Yu didn’t take Lu Shangyi’s words too seriously, as it was clearly the female lead who had gone rogue and was now eyeing her beautiful, foster step-mother.
It was understandable that Lu Shangyi didn’t know the truth.
Recalling Jiang Mei’s ambiguous, shockingly intense gaze before she left, Qiao Yu’s scalp tingled as if an electric current had passed through it.
Fearing that Jiang Mei might jump out from another corner without warning, Qiao Yu quickly patted her butt, grabbed her phone, and fled the scene.
She had arrived in Lu Shangyi’s car, but since Lu Shangyi was gone, she could only leave the building and call a ride-share.
The figure in the parking lot finally disappeared furtively.
Lu Shangyi withdrew her gaze, a subtle, wry smile playing on her rosy lips.
But she couldn’t smile for long.
After her phone vibrated, she saw a message from Qiao Yu: “Is that not okay?”
The other person seemed to have thought for a moment before sending a second message: “To be honest, I’d really miss you, Sister. Although there’s no chance for us romantically, we can still be family!”
If they became family, wouldn’t they be able to see each other often?
Qiao Yu thought she was incredibly clever, but the person on the other end didn’t reply to her message for a long time, as if she didn’t even have time to look at her phone.
Biting her lip, Qiao Yu worried that Lu Shangyi would misunderstand and think she had sided with Lu Shenghui, so she added: “Don’t worry, Sister Lu, even if my body belongs to your niece, my heart will always belong to you.”
Instead of getting angry, Lu Shangyi laughed.
She wants to be my niece’s wife that badly?
Tossing the phone aside, Lu Shangyi raised her hand to rub her temples.
Chu Mi opened the car door and was stunned for a couple of seconds to see the look of frustration on the woman’s face.
“Still worried about the company?”
“No,” Lu Shangyi put her hand down, a definite denial.
Chu Mi tossed her bag onto the back seat and casually asked while fastening her seatbelt, “Then what is it?”
Was there anything in this world that even Lu Shangyi was powerless against?
Just as the thought crossed her mind, she heard the woman in the driver’s seat, who was gripping the steering wheel with one hand, slowly say, “A child has set her sights on my niece.”
Chu Mi paused, then her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked up at her.
That’s it?
Her expression was so astonished that Lu Shangyi indifferently glanced over, staring at her with a straight, expressionless face.
Chu Mi instantly snapped to attention.
“What’s the big deal? Just snatch what you want, like you always do.”
“This is different.”
“What’s different about it?” Chu Mi pulled her cap down, folded her arms, and settled in to catch up on sleep.
“If you really can’t be ruthless, just leave it to me.”
She blinked in confusion.
“Besides, isn’t your niece being watched closely by Lu Shenghui lately? Do they even have a chance to meet?”
Lu Shangyi couldn’t even be bothered to spare her a glance now.
After the car slowly started moving, Chu Mi sensed the subtle displeasure in the woman’s heart.
She subtly observed the other person.
“No way, are you serious this time?”
The woman was focused on driving and still said nothing.
Chu Mi pushed her cap up in shock, laughing with schadenfreude.
“Oh dear, that might be a little tricky.”
She seemed afraid that Lu Shangyi might actually be in a good mood.
“The child and your niece have known each other for so long, they’re practically childhood sweethearts.”
“Isn’t it only natural for childhood sweethearts to end up together when they grow up?”
Chu Mi was laughing brazenly.
Lu Shangyi suddenly pulled the car over to the side of the road.
“You move to the back.”
She was clearly serious.
Chu Mi quickly grabbed the armrest.
“Just kidding, just kidding.”
Lu Shangyi didn’t react.
Chu Mi hurriedly said ingratiatingly: “They say a childhood sweethearts can’t beat a sudden love. That’s perfect for you two.”
The car started again.
Chu Mi, relieved that her life was spared, patted her chest with lingering fear.
“But didn’t your niece go on a blind date with Song Wanying a while ago?.What happened?.Did it not work out?”
“It didn’t work out,” Lu Shangyi’s red lips subtly twitched.
“And it was never going to.”
“That’s true..Even though your niece was only recognized later in life, her personality is very much like yours in some ways.”
Equally enduring, equally deep, equally…
Calculating.
However, Jiang Mei was still far inferior to Lu Shangyi.
Lu Shangyi had been deeply manipulative since childhood.
When others were still being scolded by parents and elders for being mischievous and ignorant, this person already knew how to win over adults, making 99% of the elders around her praise her to the high heavens.
If you wanted to talk about cunning, no one could surpass Lu Shangyi.
After arriving home, Qiao Yu collapsed onto the sofa.
Her increasingly frail body made her too tired to even move a finger, especially after having been subjected to three rounds of threats from Ye Yunjian, Jiang Mei, and Lu Shangyi in one day.
She could confidently say that since she was born, she had never experienced so many heart-stopping things in a single day.
Qiao Yu felt a bit weary.
She grabbed a cushion to rest under her elbow, her eyelids half-closed and drowsy.
Bai Yiyu walked in from the courtyard and saw the girl curled up on the sofa, looking listless.
Her long, straight black hair was spread out, her face was sleepy, and her eyelids under the fine eyelashes seemed closed, yet not entirely.
She looked utterly exhausted.
Under the soft lamplight, her delicate features and snow-white skin were on display.
Her cherry-red lips under her perky nose unconsciously moved twice, instantly making a heart skip a beat.
Qiao Yu was only covered with a thin blanket.
The deep curve of her waist was slender and alluring.
Her two exposed legs were long and straight, and her delicate ankles were thin, conveying a fragile beauty that inspired a natural urge to protect her.
As if aware of the observer’s thoughts, the pheromones on her body aggressively wafted over.
Blending with the girl’s faint scent, they were captivating and made one’s heart race.
Bai Yiyu suddenly felt a little parched.
She deliberately increased her pace to make a sound, drawing the girl’s attention.
Bai Yiyu stopped at the doorway, waiting for the girl to fully wake up.
After about two seconds, the other person’s dark eyes looked over with a hint of confusion.
Qiao Yu stared at the figure in the doorway for a long time before she could match the face to the identity.
She instantly sat up from the sofa with a graceful movement, her bare feet touching the rug, her expression somewhat startled.
Seeing that she had reacted, Bai Yiyu walked over to her.
“Why are you sleeping here?”
“No, I was just playing on my phone.”
Embarrassedly scratching her cheek, Qiao Yu opened her eyes and looked at her curiously.
“Auntie Bai, what made you decide to visit me?”
“I came over to discuss something with your mother tonight,” Bai Yiyu said.
Her gaze skimmed over the clothing slipping off the girl’s shoulder, and Bai Yiyu shifted her eyes.
“Dinner is almost ready. Get yourself together and come eat with us.”
Qiao Yu was suddenly a bit awkward.
In fact, she had just eaten a lot of snacks and wasn’t hungry at all.
Bai Yiyu quickly noticed the colorful snack wrappers in the trash can.
She chuckled almost imperceptibly, and thoughtfully didn’t expose her.
“If you don’t have an appetite, you can eat later. I’ll ask your mother to save some for you.”
How could she possibly do that?
Bai Yiyu, as a guest, had personally come to invite her.
If she didn’t go, wouldn’t that be incredibly rude?
She quickly shook her head.
“No need.”
Flinging the blanket off her, Qiao Yu rummaged around.
“Auntie Bai, wait for me. I’ll put on another layer of clothing.”
She wriggled around, and the fragrance from her body, completely unguarded, rushed into Bai Yiyu’s nostrils, carrying captivating pheromones that almost overwhelmed Bai Yiyu.
The smiling look in her eyes unknowingly darkened a little.
Bai Yiyu’s gaze fell on her two white and tender legs.
Because she was bent over looking for something, her short skirt had ridden up a little.
The faintly exposed skin was incredibly enticing, yet the main person was completely unaware.
Bai Yiyu politely averted her eyes again, her lips pressed into a tight line.
Qiao Yu grabbed the nearby cardigan, picked up her phone, and turned around, only to see Bai Yiyu looking completely upright and innocent.
Perhaps because she had grown up in a military compound, the woman’s back was perfectly straight.
Her gaze was fixed straight ahead, so proper that it was impossible to suspect her of any ill intent.
Qiao Yu’s soft gaze swept from Bai Yiyu’s head to her feet.
She was inexplicably choked into silence by the other person’s virtuous appearance.
It wasn’t that Bai Yiyu being so open and honorable was bad; it was just…
She felt as if she had inexplicably lost a round.
The system heard her inner monologue and was filled with question marks.
“Host, when will this damn need to win be cured?”
“This time it’s different.”
Qiao Yu stared at Bai Yiyu for a long time.
“This time it’s not about winning.”
She said, “It’s mainly that I just like to challenge myself and attempt the impossible.”
The system: “…”
I don’t believe you.
Qiao Yu was good in every way, except for the fact that she was prone to rebellious teenage emotions.
The more pure and unmoving Bai Yiyu was, the more Qiao Yu wanted to see her face flushed, breathless, and out of control.
Her dark eyes rolled twice.
Qiao Yu deliberately moved closer to the other person, smiling softly and gently.
“Auntie Bai, I’m all set.”
Her trailing syllable had an upward lilt.
Her voice was like a hook, so captivating it made one’s bones go soft.
And that wasn’t all.
The other person suddenly moved closer, and the fragrance and pheromones on her body rushed in without warning.
Bai Yiyu’s fingers tightened abruptly, nearly digging marks into the sofa cushion beneath her.
Qiao Yu narrowed her eyes and smiled innocently.
She subtly moved closer to the other person.
Her shallow breathing fell steadily on Bai Yiyu’s chin and cheek, carrying a fatal temptation.
She smiled like a newly transformed fairy, her appearance innocent, completely oblivious to how ambiguous her actions looked to others.
The veins on Bai Yiyu’s forcefully pressed hands were clearly visible, revealing the inner struggle and restraint of their owner.
But on the surface, she still maintained a calm, noble demeanor, as if she hadn’t been affected by the girl at all.
“Let’s go.”
Standing up, she took two steps ahead with a sense of trying to escape, maintaining a distance of a couple of steps from Qiao Yu.
Her expression was starting to lose its initial gentle composure.
She hadn’t originally harbored any deep feelings for the young girl.
An alpha with such firm willpower, like her, could maintain a degree of sanity even when faced with an omega in heat, let alone facing a woman like Qiao Yu, who wasn’t in heat.
A trace of doubt crossed her ink-black eyes.
Bai Yiyu unconsciously turned back to glance at Qiao Yu.
The other person was looking dejected, seemingly lacking any energy.
But noticing her gaze, the other person’s eyes quickly lit up.
She then quickly ran to her side and familiarly hooked her arm around hers, quietly pleading, “Auntie Bai, wait for me.”
Qiao Yu finally understood.
She couldn’t rush a woman as difficult to warm up as Bai Yiyu.
Haste makes waste.
Even if she worried until she got blisters in her mouth, it wouldn’t help.
She needed to treat Bai Yiyu like a frog in warm water, slowly dissolving her will with sweet words and growing closer to her.
Her soft, boneless arm, wrapped in a fluffy cardigan, rubbed against hers without any pattern, like a small kitten gently clinging to her, which inexplicably softened her heart a little.
Bai Yiyu wasn’t used to intimate contact.
Her whole body subtly tensed, but slowly relaxed after confirming the girl had no other intentions.
Noticing her bare feet on the floor, Bai Yiyu frowned slightly, gently scolding her, “Go put on some shoes.”
Qiao Yu was a little too lazy to walk back.
She pointed to the doorway.
“I’ll put them on right there.”
The distance to the doorway was the same as the distance to the sofa to put on shoes.
Bai Yiyu looked at her for a moment, silently accepting her willfulness.
However, she moved quickly, taking a few long strides that swiftly brought Qiao Yu to the entryway.
She then stopped, her dark, resolute eyes looking at Qiao Yu, and then at the shoes in front of them.
Her lips curved up slightly.
Qiao Yu looked around and deliberately chose a pair of low heels.
The perfect shoe shape accentuated the thin, delicate lines of her ankle.
The arch of her instep was beautiful and alluring.
Bai Yiyu was silent for a while.
She couldn’t say the shoes didn’t look good, but…
She looked up at the girl’s face.
“Change into some slippers.”
It’s just dinner at her parents’ house next door.
There’s no need to dress up so formally.
Those who knew thought she was just going home for dinner; those who didn’t would think she was going home to meet her parents.
Startled by her own thoughts, Bai Yiyu looked away, her face tightening even more.
Qiao Yu leaned against the entryway wall and, hearing this, lightly knitted her brows.
“But there’s so much snow outside. If I wear slippers, the soles will get wet.”
Her eyes rolled mischievously twice.
Qiao Yu suddenly moved closer to Bai Yiyu, almost throwing herself into the other person’s arms.
“Auntie Bai, why don’t you carry me over?”
The trailing sound of her soft voice was uplifted.
It was clearly an incredibly ambiguous statement, yet coming from her mouth, it seemed like just an innocent question, devoid of any ulterior motives.
Bai Yiyu turned to look at her, her gaze unknowingly darkening by two degrees.
Qiao Yu looked innocent.
Seeing that Bai Yiyu didn’t say anything, she raised her foot.
“Then I won’t change.”
Auntie won’t give me a hug.
How boring.
With her being so willful, Bai Yiyu could only hold her arm, helplessly taking out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet.
“Put these on.”
Qiao Yu instantly beamed, her face as bright and showy as a flower in March.
“Alright, I’ll change right away!”
Reaching out to take the shoes from Bai Yiyu’s hand, she quickly put them on.
Qiao Yu pushed open the entryway door, and, afraid the other person would change her mind, she deliberately exaggerated and dramatically exclaimed while staring at the thin layer of white on the ground, “Wow! It’s so snowy!”
After shouting, she turned to Bai Yiyu expectantly, the implication clear.
Bai Yiyu wasn’t one to go back on her word, especially since it was only a short distance of a few dozen steps to the next door.
She leaned forward slightly, placed her hand under Qiao Yu’s fair knee, and with a little force, lifted the other person up.
Qiao Yu was very light, like holding a feather in her arms, almost weightless.
Surprised internally, Bai Yiyu unconsciously put on a stern face and lectured her.
“You need to eat more vegetables and stop being a picky eater.”
Qiao Yu leaned on her shoulder and smiled.
Hearing this, she moved her eyelids and deliberately teased her.
“Auntie Bai, when you lecture people,” she paused.
Bai Yiyu thought the girl was about to say she was scary, but a moment later, she said, “Why do you sound so much like an older girlfriend?”
Bai Yiyu didn’t understand the term “older,” but she certainly understood the word “girlfriend.”
Annoyed and amused, she glared at her.
Bai Yiyu quickened her pace.
“Stop taking advantage of your aunt.”
She hadn’t even thought of it that way, but after Qiao Yu’s subtle suggestion, a thought suddenly took root in her heart and began to grow uncontrollably.
Girlfriend?
It didn’t sound bad at all.
Such a warm and cozy girl would be just right for her bed in winter.
Perhaps because her thoughts were impure, Bai Yiyu started to feel uncomfortable everywhere while holding the person.
The skin contact suddenly started to burn, bringing a tingling itch like an electric current.
The faint scent of pheromones at her nose gradually intensified.
She could almost smell the pleasant scent of shower gel on the skin hidden beneath the other person’s clothes.
Every part of Qiao Yu’s body seemed to be trying its best to tempt her.
Qiao Jinghuai was so shocked that he took off his glasses and frantically called out to his wife, “Wife, the little ancestor is really about to take down your old classmate!”
Having been married to his wife for so many years, he knew his wife’s friend quite well and understood that she was
an extremely severe germaphobe.
Not only would she avoid holding a woman she wasn’t familiar with, but even when she was with Mrs. Qiao, Bai Yiyu would be extra careful not to get any surrounding scents on her.
Qiao Jinghuai once thought that a woman as germaphobic as Bai Yiyu would die alone, never finding a partner.
Who knew that his little mischief-maker of a daughter would cause the other person to break the rule she had adhered to for so many years after only meeting her a few times?
Staring at the smiling Qiao Yu in the woman’s arms, Qiao Jinghuai didn’t know whether he should first offer some perfunctory sorrow for his daughter’s future, or feel sorry for Bai Yiyu being entangled by his shameless daughter.
After all, if his daughter hadn’t been so good-looking, she probably would have been beaten to death already.
Mrs. Qiao looked up upon hearing the noise and happened to see Bai Yiyu bending down to gently put the girl down.
Slightly surprised, Mrs. Qiao composed the emotion in her eyes and spoke indifferently.
“You’re so old, don’t you know how to walk by yourself?”
Hearing her mother’s reprimand, Qiao Yu just smiled cheekily and didn’t argue.
What did they know?
It took all her efforts to cling to Auntie Bai and get some physical contact.
It was a pity, though.
The entire walk, Bai Yiyu hadn’t even broken a sweat or shown any embarrassment.
She didn’t even blink twice.
If it weren’t for the faint warmth transmitted through their clothes, Qiao Yu would have thought the other person was an android.
Sighing internally with regret, Qiao Yu secretly glanced at Bai Yiyu, and was caught red-handed.
Bai Yiyu raised her eyebrow at her, her face completely composed.
Qiao Yu secretly pouted.
With her parents present, she naturally couldn’t openly flirt like a temptress, but that didn’t stop her from diligently serving and putting food on the other person’s plate at the dinner table.
The couple watched Bai Yiyu’s overflowing bowl, speechless.
Why not just set a separate table for the two of you?
She was overly enthusiastic.
Bai Yiyu held her bowl, her eyelashes fluttering twice.
“No need.”
Dodging the attentive chopsticks, Bai Yiyu’s voice held a hint of helplessness.
“I can’t eat any more.” Qiao Yu let out a soft “Ah.”
“Auntie Bai, you have such a small appetite?”
She thought someone who had been in the military like Bai Yiyu would be a big eater.
Disappointed, she put the dish into her own bowl.
Qiao Yu looked around and enthusiastically served the other person a bowl of soup.
“Then, Auntie, drink more of this. It’s good for longevity and your health. My mother wouldn’t even make it if you weren’t here.”
The girl was always moving around beside her.
When she moved, her faint pheromones would mix with the breeze and waft over, making her heart itch unbearably.
Bai Yiyu endured it for half the meal.
Finally, feeling a bit overwhelmed, she held Qiao Yu’s hand, her tone unconsciously intensifying slightly.
“Do not talk while eating or sleep. The food is getting cold. Hurry up and eat.”
Qiao Yu said, “Oh,” feeling very disappointed.
“System, I’ve been flirting with her for half the night, why is she still completely unmoved?”
This was making her doubt if she was even a proper woman!
The system smacked its lips and chuckled with schadenfreude.
“Host, you’re really not a woman.”
Seeing her glare fiercely, the system wasn’t intimidated and slowly whispered in her ear, “But if you slept with Auntie Bai tonight, you might become a real woman.”
Qiao Yu: “…”
You’re so dirty.jpg
But the system had a point.
Secretly glancing at Bai Yiyu twice, Qiao Yu’s gaze unconsciously slid down to her slender, powerful right hand.
Look at the bone structure.
Look at the grip on the chopsticks.
Her technique must be very good.
The young girl suddenly stared at her right hand with a flushed face.
Bai Yiyu’s fingertip moved slightly, and she understood what was happening with almost no effort.
She didn’t know what expression to make, so she ended up with no expression at all.
She felt she must have misunderstood the other person’s intention.
Maybe Qiao Yu simply found her hand attractive and was just staring at it a bit longer.
How could a young girl have so many inappropriate thoughts?
Qiao Yu had planned to continue her intimate exchange with Bai Yiyu, but the other person left after dinner.
Moreover, Mrs. Qiao seemed to have caught on to her intentions and stopped her.
“Have you finished your homework? Have you memorized your vocabulary? Have you done the practice tests? Have you reviewed the key topics?”
With this barrage of questions, Qiao Yu instantly deflated, losing all enthusiasm.
But the night wasn’t without its rewards.
At least her relationship with Bai Yiyu had leaped forward.
They had already made plans to go out for Japanese food next time.
Qiao Yu smiled happily at Bai Yiyu’s reply on her phone.
Coming out of Mrs. Qiao’s house, Qiao Yu was about to push open the iron gate to her own courtyard when a dark figure suddenly rushed toward her from the side.
Jiang Mei quickly covered her mouth, stopping her impending scream.
“Yu Yu.”
“It’s you?”
Qiao Yu was so startled that her soul almost left her body.
After clearly seeing the female lead’s face, Qiao Yu slowly let out a breath.
“Why do you walk without making a sound?”
However, the next second, she realized that Jiang Mei shouldn’t be here.
But just as she looked up to ask the other person, she accidentally met the other person’s deep, dark eyes, which held a frighteningly dangerous aura.
Qiao Yu unconsciously stepped back, wanting to escape.
But Jiang Mei pressed forward step by step until she cornered her in a dark spot with no escape.
The intense aura of the alpha rushed toward her.
Qiao Yu instinctively put her hands up between herself and Jiang Mei.
However, her weak resistance was effortlessly caught by the other person.
Jiang Mei tightly restrained her in her arms, her voice husky.
“Why was Bai Yiyu holding you?”
Qiao Yu was stunned.
“You saw that?”
Her question made Jiang Mei laugh out loud.
She leaned in close to her ear.
“Not only me, but Aunt also saw it.”
Her deep eyes were fixed on the omega’s panicked face.
Jiang Mei moved closer and closer.
Her strong pheromones almost made Qiao Yu’s limbs go weak.
“Yu Yu, shouldn’t you explain yourself?”
Explain?
Qiao Yu looked at her nervously.
“If I explain, will you believe me?”
She was silent for a long time.
So long that when Qiao Yu tried to run away while she wasn’t paying attention, the other person’s strong arm tightly clamped around her slender waist.
“What do you think?”
Her low voice, carrying warm breath, fell on her skin.
Qiao Yu’s scalp tingled.
She was so tightly confined by Jiang Mei that she couldn’t move, forced to lean into her arms and match her posture.
Jiang Mei didn’t intend to let her go easily tonight.
In the darkness, she lowered her head to stare at those two soft lips, her mouth feeling dry.
She called out softly again, “Yu Yu.”
It sounded like a death knell.
All the hairs on Qiao Yu’s body stood up.
“I think there must be some misunderstanding between us.”
“Misunderstanding?”
Jiang Mei quietly asked.
“What misunderstanding?”
Qiao Yu couldn’t think of one right away, but it was obviously more important to soothe the female lead’s emotions at the moment.
In her haste, she blurted out, “Actually, it’s because I accidentally twisted my ankle in the room earlier, so Auntie Bai kindly carried me.”
As soon as the words fell, a low chuckle came from her ear.
“Twisted your ankle?”
“But I just saw you walking around, looking quite lively.”
Qiao Yu: “…”
Well, this is embarrassing.
Qiao Yu was frantic and quickly called out to the system.
“Oh my god!
Your bloody-style female lead has gone rogue!”
The system was so annoyed with her that it put on a scowling face and squatted on the wall, lighting a cigarette for itself.
“This is all your fault. You figure it out yourself. I’m useless.”
It hadn’t even finished dealing with the going-home issue, and now this woman had corrupted its female lead.
She was the most talented person in the world.
Even at this moment, the omega in her arms was still spacing out.
Jiang Mei lightly ground her teeth, her pale lips pressed into a tight line.
She stared coldly at the girl wriggling in her arms.
“Qiao Yu.”
“If you don’t concentrate, do you believe I’ll kiss you?”
Qiao Yu instantly calmed down, but didn’t forget to argue with the system.
“She’s your female lead, you’re responsible!”
The system wasn’t to be outdone.
“No, woman, the female lead is yours now.”
“…?”
Damn it!
Lu Shangyi stood quietly on the balcony, holding a glass of wine.
She slowly took a sip, the smile on the woman’s lips so profound it was impossible to guess.
It wasn’t until a light breeze blew past a moment later that the woman’s red lips subtly curled.
Her voice, containing a faint laugh, slowly and deliberately spoke, “I told you not to provoke my niece.”
Draining the remaining wine in her glass, Lu Shangyi faintly looked at the person in the darkness.
“You’ve already stopped listening so quickly.”
