A Rich Family’s Matrilocal Alpha Married to a Vegetative Omega - Chapter 23.1

Zhao Yusze brought the dishes over and said, “Have you been waiting long?”

“It has been quite a while…” Ye Fan muttered softly.

In fact, according to normal cooking time, Zhao Yusze had been very fast, but Ye Fan was so anxious to go home that every second felt exceptionally long.

“Hmm? What did you say?”

Ye Fan waved her hands repeatedly and said quickly, “Nothing, nothing.”

After placing all the prepared dishes on the table, Zhao Yusze sat across from Ye Fan. She picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of braised pork, and held it out toward Ye Fan’s mouth.

“Try a piece?”

Ye Fan instinctively turned her head to dodge, waving her hand with a dry laugh. “No need, I’ll do it myself.”

This avoidant movement caused the smile on Zhao Yusze’s face to stiffen for a moment. She suppressed the irritation in her heart and silently withdrew her hand.

Endure it, endure it. As long as Ye Fan ate the food she prepared, half the battle would be won.

Zhao Yusze tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and smiled slightly at Ye Fan. “Ye Fan, I made all of these because they are your favorites. Hurry and try them.”

Ye Fan looked at the dishes in front of her. They looked very appetizing and were indeed the dishes the original owner of the body liked in her memories. The original owner would have been very happy to see them, but unfortunately, she was not the original owner.

“Eat, you’ll like it.” Seeing that Ye Fan hadn’t moved her chopsticks for a long time, Zhao Yusze urged her anxiously.

“Okay,” Ye Fan replied. She casually picked up a piece of potato and ate it. The taste was indeed good—soft, waxy, and soaked in sauce—but no matter how well Zhao Yusze cooked, the current Ye Fan had no appetite.

“How is it?”

“Very good.”

“I’m glad you like it.” Zhao Yusze smiled at Ye Fan. The heart she had been holding in her throat finally settled a bit, and she relaxed significantly.

Ye Fan was not favored in the Ye family and was an Alpha without pheromones. If Zhao Yusze hadn’t accidentally discovered that Ye Fan’s identity was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, she wouldn’t have gone out of her way to please her.

Originally, when Zhao Yusze asked Ye Fan out before, she wanted to tell Ye Fan about her true background, but unfortunately, Ye Fan didn’t go.

And now, since Ye Fan was determined to get rid of her, she was even less inclined to tell Ye Fan the truth. Unless this plan succeeded and they “created a reality” together, Zhao Yusze would not tell her.

Zhao Yusze had already thought it through. Although the Qin family was powerful, the status of Ye Fan’s original background was not inferior. Even if the Qin family found out that Ye Fan had been intimate with her, they couldn’t do anything to Ye Fan.

When the time came, she would find a way to make Ye Fan and Qin Shujian divorce, and then she could step in and marry Ye Fan, enjoying everything her status brought.

However, drugging someone was not exactly an honorable thing and could easily cause Ye Fan to reject her. If she hadn’t been pushed to the final step, Zhao Yusze wouldn’t have done it.

If she could make Ye Fan’s feelings for her return, there might still be a chance.

She looked up at Ye Fan. “Ye Fan, we’ve been together for a long time. Are you really going to give up on our relationship?”

Ye Fan sighed silently in her heart. This girl is really stubborn; no matter what I say, she doesn’t get it. She didn’t know what an Alpha without pheromones like herself had that was worth clinging to.

She gradually lost her patience. “You have to understand, I am married to Shujian now. If I keep seeing you, it’s not only unfair to you but also unfair to Shujian.”

“So you’re just going to abandon me?” Zhao Yusze bit her lip. Her fists under the table were clenched so tight that she didn’t even notice her nails digging into her palms.

“…” Ye Fan’s patience was completely exhausted. She spread her hands and looked at her with an innocent face. “What else? Do you want to take on the status of a mistress? Even if you’re willing, I don’t want Shujian to be mistreated.”

Zhao Yusze’s suppressed emotions exploded at this moment. Her originally delicate face began to twist, and she roared unwillingly, “We were together first! Qin Shujian is just a useless person in a coma; she can’t do anything! What makes her worth clinging to!”

“Ye Fan! Give her up! As long as you divorce, we can be together! And didn’t you say you liked me the most?”

Zhao Yusze’s eyes were bloodshot. She stood up and walked behind Ye Fan, wanting to hug her.

Ye Fan stood up immediately. She pushed Zhao Yusze away and retreated several steps to put distance between them.

Her wife was so smart and beautiful; she was truly much better than the person in front of her.

Ye Fan frowned angrily with a cold expression. The guilt in her heart was significantly diluted by Zhao Yusze’s words.

“I won’t allow you to talk about my wife like that! Besides, the one who liked you was the old me! The me now only has my wife in my heart!”

The atmosphere in the room was scorching. A wave of heat gradually rose from Ye Fan’s body, making her vision blur. This feeling was similar to her state after every injection, making Ye Fan quickly realize something was wrong.

“I’ve eaten the meal, and I’ve said what needed to be said. My wife is waiting for me to go back, so I’m leaving now.” Ye Fan spoke and prepared to turn and leave.

“No! You can’t leave!”

Zhao Yusze rushed forward anxiously, wanting to keep Ye Fan. She had essentially dropped her facade with Ye Fan now; if she couldn’t keep Ye Fan this time, she feared she would never have another chance.

Ye Fan, of course, wouldn’t wait for Zhao Yusze to catch her. Taking advantage of her long legs, she reached the door in a few steps, opened it, and rushed down the stairs.

“Ye Fan!” Zhao Yusze’s eyes were so red they almost seemed to drip blood. She gritted her teeth and quickly chased after her.

The stairs were long. Ye Fan’s vision was dizzy, and she stumbled, nearly falling, but fortunately, she made it down without incident and quickly rushed to the road to hail a taxi.

Zhao Yusze only caught up just then, seeing only the back of Ye Fan entering the taxi, stamping her feet in rage.

By the time she got out of the car, Ye Fan had almost lost her consciousness, relying entirely on willpower to hold on. Her legs were weak, her head was spinning, and she stumbled all the way back to her room.

Once in the room, Ye Fan’s tightly strung nerves relaxed, and she collapsed onto the sofa, her body incredibly hot.

Qin Shujian had been waiting for Ye Fan. Usually, when Ye Fan went out, it was to the flower shop and then to buy some snacks along the way. It shouldn’t take long—at most, she should have been back within two hours. But this time, she had been out for a very long while.

“Why are you back so late today!” Qin Shujian was unhappy, her cool voice as cold as winter water.

Ye Fan’s mind was already a bit unclear. She panted heavily for a few breaths, unable to say anything.

The Alpha pheromones permeated the air, and Qin Shujian, affected by the pheromones, began to feel hot all over, letting out a few soft moans.

She was both ashamed and annoyed. “Ye Fan! What on earth did you do outside! How did you get yourself into this state!”

Ye Fan didn’t have time to answer. She reached out with trembling hands to get the suppressant from the drawer. As the medicine was slowly injected into her body and began to take effect, Ye Fan finally calmed down a bit.

She approached Qin Shujian piteously and voiced her accusation, “I ran into Zhao Yusze. She drugged me.”

Qin Shujian was uncomfortably hot, and even her voice was tinged with hoarseness. “I’ll settle the score regarding Zhao Yusze with you later. Right now, retract your Alpha pheromones.”

“I can’t control them!” Ye Fan was so anxious she was about to cry. She was born with a pheromone deficiency and had only possessed her own pheromones recently. Her control wasn’t good to begin with, and now that she was drugged, it was even harder to manage.

It was unknown where Zhao Yusze got the drug she gave Ye Fan, but in the few moments it took for Ye Fan and Qin Shujian to speak, the effect of the suppressant Ye Fan had injected began to weaken.

An unbearable dry heat once again swept through Ye Fan’s body. She gasped for air, her fingers fumbling with the buttons at her collar, instinctively pulling at them.

“So hot…”

Ye Fan’s thoughts were hazy, but she was still gritting her teeth and struggling. No matter what, she could not hurt Qin Shujian. She tried hard to control herself, propping up her body to reach for more suppressant, but because her vision was blurry, her fingers missed the suppressant several times.

The Alpha pheromones filled the entire room. Qin Shujian’s body also gradually heated up, and her originally pale cheeks were stained with a thin flush.

“Ye Fan…”

Qin Shujian’s soft and alluring voice was undoubtedly a massive flame to Ye Fan. Her eyes turned red, and she almost couldn’t stop herself from pouncing.

Ye Fan panted with difficulty as she spoke, “Shujian, don’t… don’t speak yet. If you do this, I won’t be able to hold back…”

Qin Shujian was struggling immensely. The fire rising in her body was almost enough to burn her whole being. If she was this affected just by Ye Fan, it was hard to imagine how miserable Ye Fan, the one who was actually drugged, must feel now.

The room fell into silence, with only the sound of their heavy breathing.

Ye Fan had managed to grab the suppressant again and re-injected it. The cold liquid was injected into her veins, but it only slightly slowed her agitated heart. Before long, her blood began to boil again.

These suppressants were not very effective for Ye Fan; they could only delay her “heat.” And as time passed with multiple injections, the effect of the suppressant became smaller and smaller for Ye Fan, with the heat bit by bit swallowing her sanity.

Qin Shujian could hear Ye Fan’s painful groans. After hearing the sound of Ye Fan opening another suppressant, Qin Shujian quickly stopped her.

“Ye Fan, you can’t continue injecting suppressants. It will cause great damage to your body; you won’t be able to take it.” Qin Shujian’s voice trembled slightly, with a trace of suppressed panting.

“But…” Ye Fan certainly knew that too many suppressant injections were bad for her body, but if she didn’t inject them, she would find it very hard to control herself.

It was just her and Shujian in the room, and Shujian still couldn’t move. When her head became hazy, maybe… no, definitely.

She would definitely do something to hurt Shujian, and Ye Fan didn’t want that.

She did like Qin Shujian and wanted to do those things with her, but all of it had to happen with Qin Shujian’s consent.

Qin Shujian could feel Ye Fan’s care for her, and a wave of warmth flowed through her heart. “There are no ‘buts.’ We are already husband and wife now. I allow you to… mmm…”

Ye Fan couldn’t hold back and pounced before Qin Shujian could finish her sentence. Qin Shujian’s subsequent words all disappeared between their lips. Ye Fan only felt a surge of coolness like spring water, making her instinctively want to seek more.

Time flowed, the sun and moon shifted outside the window, and sunlight shone through the window onto the two people on the bed, casting a soft glow over them.

Ye Fan’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, feeling her arm was a bit numb. The newly awakened Ye Fan was clearly not yet fully present. Looking at the motionless Qin Shujian in her arms, she was stunned for several seconds before recalling the events of last night.

Thinking of that absurd and unrestrained night, Ye Fan’s face heated up. She felt a bit embarrassed but also sweet inside.

Ye Fan tightened her hold on Qin Shujian, grinning foolishly. Her wife was so good—she couldn’t bear to see her suffer or damage her body with suppressants, so she was willing to let her do those things.

Now her wife truly belonged to her. She would be good to her wife and would never let her down!

While Ye Fan was lost in thought, Qin Shujian woke up. Although she couldn’t move, she could perceive the outside world. The strange sensation coming from her body made her immediately think of last night, making her feel both shy and awkward for a moment.

“Aren’t you going to get off yet? How much longer do you want to hold me!”

A somewhat bashful and annoyed voice came through. Ye Fan loosened her grip. “Hehehe, wife, you’re awake. Last night…”

Qin Shujian was embarrassed and, fearing Ye Fan would bring it up, quickly interrupted her. “Why were you drugged by Zhao Yusze last night!”

Thinking of Zhao Yusze made Qin Shujian angry. She had already been unhappy when Ye Fan first had contact with Zhao Yusze. Later, Ye Fan promised her not to associate with Zhao Yusze, so she let it go.

But not much time had passed, and not only did Ye Fan meet with Zhao Yusze, she was even drugged by her.
