A No-CP Female Lead is Pregnant with the Uxorilocal Alpha’s Cub - Chapter 22.1

—??? Does this mean there’s something wrong with the congee?

—No way! She already swallowed it!

—Speaking of which, the plot now seems completely different from the book. Is that really okay?

—No way. Is this servant the one with the problem?

—Ahhh, I’m actually a little touched. Did Xuexue notice something was wrong and then come back?

—So is there something wrong with the congee or not!!!

…

Song Ranxue did not know that the bullet comments were currently discussing heatedly. She glanced at the servant who had brought food up to Leng Xingxuan, then still walked over to Leng Xingxuan and shielded her.

That servant… seeing Song Ranxue, she also looked at her in some surprise, but there was no expression resembling panic or fear. For some reason, this made Song Ranxue even less reassured.

Either she was very good at pretending, her acting skills already reaching the point of perfection, or else… she had left herself a backup plan.

Of course, Song Ranxue actually also hoped there was nothing wrong with the food Leng Xingxuan had eaten, but she felt that this was hardly possible.

She did not think there was anything wrong with her own sense of smell or memory—

Because she had smelled the scent of the pheromone-inducing agent. It was exactly the same as the one she had smelled in that mysterious clubhouse last night.

Even earlier than that, she had smelled it when she was leaving Xingkong SOHO. At that time, that female Beta in a baseball cap had accidentally smashed the tube in her hand and even left behind one bottle. That smell was almost no different from last night’s. Song Ranxue had reasonable suspicion that these two matters were definitely connected.

And although she could smell the pheromone-inducing agent without any issue, this inducing agent was something even Betas feared. Leng Xingxuan’s behavior in that room last night, along with the various changes after they returned home, had all made Song Ranxue feel surprised. She believed the pheromone-inducing agent should have played a role in it.

In other words, no matter what, Leng Xingxuan should not be smelling that pheromone-inducing agent again, much less ingesting it.

Otherwise… what if her special period was triggered again later?

But just now, she had eaten a mouthful of congee that very likely contained the pheromone-inducing agent.

That was why Song Ranxue was so anxious.

However, looking at Leng Xingxuan now, there was no reaction from her at all, so Song Ranxue became uncertain whether what she had done was right or wrong. For a moment, it was not good for her to flare up again, though her expression remained grave.

The atmosphere in the room was heavy and stifled. No one moved. Song Ranxue’s face was faintly dark as she looked at Leng Xingxuan, wanting her to give an explanation.

“Why did you come back again? Are you hungry?” Leng Xingxuan truly was a little surprised that Song Ranxue had returned again, but her expression remained as usual, and she ate another mouthful of congee, turning a blind eye to Song Ranxue’s concern.

Song Ranxue: “…” Did she look like some huge sucker?

But at this moment, she did not want to leave so quickly anymore. Because what she knew was that even if she left this time, these matters would still come looking for her next time. Since that was the case, it would be better to clarify everything all at once.

Leng Xingxuan had the servant leave first. The room door was closed again, and once more, only the two of them remained. The atmosphere inexplicably became strange.

Leng Xingxuan did not continue eating the congee and instead looked at Song Ranxue. “There’s extra breakfast here. Do you want to eat?”

She was still sitting on the bed and had not moved anywhere. Her attitude looked fairly composed too, but for some reason, Song Ranxue still saw her discomfort. She did not ask the earlier question again. Instead, she came to sit beside Leng Xingxuan and stared into her eyes. “Does it hurt a lot?”

“…”

Leng Xingxuan turned her eyes away and did not look at her. The roots of her ears faintly heated up, completely beyond her control.

This question had no beginning or end, yet she understood it effortlessly.

—Ahhhh, am I the only one who thinks Xuexue’s line is kind of hot?!

—Pfft, pfft, Xingxing is shy.

—In the past, Xingxing not only would never eat in the bedroom, she definitely wouldn’t eat in bed. Maybe it really hurts terribly?

—Hahahahaha, Xuexue really is pretty capable!

…

“Do you have ointment? I’ll help you apply it.” Song Ranxue stared at Leng Xingxuan’s unconsciously reddened earlobe. At this moment, she no longer wanted to throw a tantrum with her either. Even if last night had not been something she initiated or something she wanted to do, the person who had done those things was still her. This was also beyond dispute. She had no way to shirk responsibility.

Right now, she could only properly make up for it.

“Why haven’t you left? Do you pity me?” Leng Xingxuan did not want to show weakness in front of her. She turned her head back to look at her, no warmth in her eyes.

Her expression was one that rejected people from a thousand miles away.

“I don’t pity you. How could I possibly pity you?” Song Ranxue felt she was being rather absurd. “What right does someone poor like me, who only has a few thousand yuan in assets and doesn’t know where the next meal will come from, have to pity you?”

—Pfft, pfft, indeed, she has no right. She’s pretty self-aware.

—So what is she staying for? Another round?

—That servant from just now!

—No, I can’t help it anymore. I’m going to go ahead and look at the latest plot first, then come back to solve the mystery. I’m really too concerned about what happened last night.

…

Leng Xingxuan’s thoughts shifted slightly. In truth, she had already more or less investigated the whole matter clearly. Even without the gossip bullet comments, she could roughly guess what had happened.

However, if possible, she also wanted to know a little more.

It was just that Song Ranxue had clearly already left, yet returned again… That truly surprised her a little.

This matter had originally had nothing to do with Song Ranxue. She was even a victim too. So why?

She could not truly be worried about her, could she? How was that possible?

“Why did you come back?” Leng Xingxuan asked again.

“There’s something wrong with your breakfast.” Song Ranxue was too lazy to argue with her anymore. She glanced at her breakfast and could still smell the pheromone-inducing agent. “Or rather, there’s something wrong with your servant.”

“I know.” Leng Xingxuan nodded, indicating she was aware.

“So you still ate it?” This time, it was Song Ranxue’s turn to be surprised.

“Otherwise? It wouldn’t be good to waste food, would it?”

“…”

This time, Song Ranxue truly was choked speechless. At the same time, an unnamed fire surged in her heart.

She closed her eyes, wanting to suppress that anger, only to discover that she could not do it at all. She directly raised her head to look at the Omega before her, that indifferent face, and could not hold back from fiercely pinching her cheek. “Do you care that little about your own body? There’s pheromone-inducing agent in this food. Don’t tell me you don’t know how many side effects inducing agents have. And you still eat it? Food? Can this be considered food?! And you still say something like that to me!”

—Oh my god, could this be the great villain’s true face? So fierce, so scary. Hugging myself tightly!

—Speaking of which, the book never wrote that the great villain liked pinching people’s faces, and so ungently too…

—Feels like Xuexue might really be furious.

—So why did Xingxing knowingly eat the food when she knew there was something wrong with it?

…

That was right. Why had she knowingly eaten it when she knew there was something wrong?

Leng Xingxuan raised her hand and patted Song Ranxue’s hand that was still pinching her cheek, signaling her to calm down. Song Ranxue also knew she had lost control just now and slowly let go of her face. But her gaze swept over the Omega’s red lips and saw that the corner of Leng Xingxuan’s mouth had been bitten open, in the exact same place where she herself had once been bitten. This made her face heat up again.

Her body… seemed to be full of marks left by Song Ranxue. In terms of belonging, she was Song Ranxue’s… Omega, even though Song Ranxue had not marked her.

This feeling was indeed somewhat subtle to her. She did not know how to describe it either.

In any case, it made her happy, and it also caused her emotions to fluctuate fiercely, making her no longer seem like herself… She really was angry at Leng Xingxuan for acting this way.

“…Sorry.” Song Ranxue withdrew her hand. Seeing that red marks had already been left on Leng Xingxuan’s cheek, like red plum blossoms on snow, gorgeous yet proud, she felt a little guilty.

“You pinched quite hard. Has your anger faded?” Leng Xingxuan lightly touched the area Song Ranxue had pinched red, then said with a smile that was not quite a smile.

“…” This made Song Ranxue even more embarrassed.

—Hahahahaha, make her compensate you! Hurry!

—Help, she’s kind of spoiling our Sister!

—I’m dying of laughter!

—What kind of compensation? How about making her your servant for two months~

—Just kiss her, hehe~

—Xingxing, don’t let her off!

…

“I don’t want a verbal apology. You have to compensate me.” Seeing the Alpha’s embarrassed appearance made Leng Xingxuan happy. The frustration from the morning also dissipated a little. She was deliberately making things difficult for her.

“…How about I let you pinch me back?” Song Ranxue knew she was in the wrong and did not avoid it, saying this directly.

“I don’t want to. My hands hurt.” Leng Xingxuan refused almost without thinking.

“…But I don’t think I made your hands hurt last night?” Song Ranxue stared at her flawless hands, seeming somewhat puzzled.

“…” Leng Xingxuan felt uncomfortable under her stare. Without changing her expression, she hid her hands slightly behind her. Her face also looked somewhat unnatural.

—Although I have no evidence, why do I feel like they’re driving a very new kind of car?

—Hahahahaha, the great villain is feeling guilty, right? Xingxing’s line originally probably didn’t mean anything else, did it?

—I’m dying of laughter. How are they so cute?

—Xingxing, hurry and enslave her!

…

Leng Xingxuan tugged at the corner of her lips. Enslave her? How would she dare enslave her? She might get bitten back and not even know what happened.

“Where is the ointment?” Song Ranxue could only ask again.

“What do you want to do?” Leng Xingxuan truly discovered that she was very stubborn. Had she not heard the meaning in Leng Xingxuan’s words?

“Help you apply medicine.” She repeated it again.

“This is your compensation to me… mmph—”
