A Tsundere Beauty Omega is Stubborn but Sweet - Chapter 17
Zhou Muxian’s entire face was turned completely to the other side. She could not see even the slightest trace of Yu You from the corner of her eye, and simply allowed Yu You’s slender hand to glide back and forth over her head.
Her movements were so gentle…
Zhou Muxian had only just sighed this in her heart when, in the next second, she was shoved hard by the owner of that jade-like hand…
She had not been prepared for Yu You to suddenly do this. Her steps turned messy and stumbling as she rushed down the steps, her whole body exposed to the cold rain. If she had not managed to steady herself with difficulty, she would probably have fallen into the large puddle nearby.
“Sister…?”
After Zhou Muxian steadied herself, she hurriedly raised her eyes to look at Yu You. Unexpectedly, Yu You had a cold expression and also walked into the rain. Treating Zhou Muxian like air, she brushed past her and strode straight ahead.
This was too sudden. Everything had been fine, so why was she angry again?
Zhou Muxian scratched her head, her gaze following Yu You as she walked forward. When she turned her head, she finally saw where the problem lay.
Not far away, beneath the corridor of the first floor of the teaching building, a red banner with yellow characters was extremely eye-catching. Not to mention from the supermarket entrance—even from farther away, the words on the banner could be seen clearly.
Homeless, pitiful dog Yu You, occupying the nest like a cuckoo, shamelessly stealing someone else’s parents.
Beside the banner stood a familiar figure: gray jacket, tall and thin, with that signature toothy grin. It was Hu Shuo, the one who had said he had thought of ten ways to deal with Yu You.
Yu You had already rushed into the rain, her figure quickly disappearing from sight. If Zhou Muxian chased after her now, she would probably receive nothing but a slap, and not a single word would reach Yu You’s ears.
Zhou Muxian changed direction and ran toward the first-floor corridor.
Seeing her run toward him, Hu Shuo whistled from far away and excitedly held up both hands in peace signs, shouting, “I told you I had a way!”
Rip—
Zhou Muxian tore the banner down in one motion, carelessly rolled it into a ball, and threw it at Hu Shuo. While his vision was covered and he had not yet come back to his senses, she used the banner to tie him up tightly like a big rice dumpling.
Quite a few students around them poked their heads out to look. Hu Shuo felt that he had lost face, and his face inevitably flushed bright red. “I was helping you, my eldest young lady!”
“Who is your eldest young lady? The Yu family only has one eldest young lady, and that’s Yu You.”
As Zhou Muxian spoke, she saw Hu Shuo trying to struggle free from the banner’s restraint. She immediately tied another dead knot in the banner, making him completely unable to move.
Hu Shuo was furious but helpless against her. Hadn’t he tried every possible way to get close to her just to get a share of the business blueprint?
He could only swallow his resentment and pretend to be good-tempered as he asked, “If she’s the eldest young lady of the Yu family, then what are you?”
“Me? Of course… I’m her lackey.”
Zhou Muxian did not shy away from calling herself a lackey and said it openly. A burst of shocked laughter immediately came from not far away.
Zhou Muxian did not feel there was anything shameful about it. Looking toward the people watching the show, she shouted.
“I like Sister. Sister is my goddess. Whoever goes against her is going against me. Anyone who wants to cooperate with the Yu family has to get Yu You’s approval!”
As she spoke, a cinnamon scent of Omega pheromones rushed into her nose. Zhou Muxian lowered her head and looked. Hu Shuo’s face was completely flushed. He bit his lip hard and begged her, “I was wrong, I was wrong. Hurry and untie me.”
Zhou Muxian furrowed her brows. She always especially resisted other people’s pheromone scents. Or rather, she found them disgusting.
Whether Alpha or Omega pheromones, if she smelled too much, she instinctively wanted to vomit.
She immediately reached out and shoved the big rice dumpling in front of her away. Watching him fall flat on his back, his body twisting like a worm as he tried to stand, Zhou Muxian only spoke coldly.
“Good luck.”
Zhou Muxian turned and ran into the drizzle. She did not see Yu You at the school gate, but she did see Yu You’s car quietly parked by the roadside.
She hurried over, only to find no one inside.
On a rainy day like this, if Yu You was not getting into the car to go home, where else could she go?
Zhou Muxian circled the surroundings in confusion and finally discovered that at the corner at the end of the road, Princess Fenxiang’s car was also parked.
Could Yu You be in Princess Fenxiang’s car right now?
Zhou Muxian anxiously ran over, but at that moment, the car started and quickly sped forward. It was clearly trying to shake her off.
This meant the people in the car had very likely seen her.
She had only just managed to pull Yu You out of that triangular relationship with great difficulty. If Princess Fenxiang coaxed her back so easily, wouldn’t all her previous efforts be wasted?
She wondered whether chasing after the car in the rain could soften Yu You’s heart and force Princess Fenxiang to stop.
After thinking about it, Zhou Muxian decided to give it a try. She lifted her legs and was about to run, not forgetting to call out, “Sister~ Sister~”
Her nape was suddenly grabbed from behind without warning, and Zhou Muxian’s steps instantly halted. Before she could turn back to look, a familiar and pleasant voice had already struck down along the back of her neck.
“Are you sick?”
The drizzle above her head also quietly disappeared. Zhou Muxian raised her eyes and saw that a black umbrella completely covered her head. The Chengming Film and Television logo was printed on it. It was Princess Fenxiang’s umbrella.
But the person holding the umbrella was Yu You. She looked at Zhou Muxian coldly, though a few traces of anger and grievance were hidden in her eyes.
Yu You’s bun had long since come undone when Zhou Muxian had carried her on her back to rush toward the supermarket. Now her hair was completely wet and draped over her shoulders, but it still could not hide her beauty. She looked like a beauty fresh from a bath.
The two of them stood beneath the same umbrella. Although it was broad daylight and cars and people streamed past, it added a few traces of ambiguity.
It was as if the surroundings surged endlessly and the rain fell in confusion, but only the two people beneath the umbrella were the world’s only stillness, and also its only closeness.
Yu You turned her face away first and said irritably, “Do you think I’m as stupid as you? Just because she curls her finger, I’ll follow her? Just because she says get in the car, I’ll get in? Why should I get into her car?”
Half scolding, half explaining. Zhou Muxian was delighted inside and could not help getting carried away as she asked, “Then this umbrella…”
“What about this umbrella? She wanted to hold an umbrella for me, so what’s wrong with me taking one from her? You still have the nerve to talk about me? I haven’t even talked about you yet. Today, you deliberately embarrassed me!”
As Yu You spoke, she became angry again. Her eyes widened in fury, her face full of fire. She instinctively stood on tiptoe, like a cat with its fur puffed up, ready to jump down from above and crush Zhou Muxian.
Zhou Muxian uncomfortably shifted her gaze away. She did not know what she was feeling guilty about. It was not as if she had told Hu Shuo to do that. But she still could not withstand the scrutiny of Yu You’s clear eyes.
Or perhaps it was… temptation?
Ahem.
Zhou Muxian coughed lightly twice and reached over to grab the umbrella handle. “Sister, I’ll hold the umbrella…”
Seeing that Zhou Muxian did not directly answer her question, Yu You avoided her outstretched hand and turned to walk forward on her own.
Zhou Muxian hurriedly slipped beneath her umbrella and followed her step by step. She also did not forget to explain, “What happened today really wasn’t arranged by me. Sister, you have to believe me. I didn’t even know Sister would come to school today. After Sister came, wasn’t I with Sister the whole time? Even when I answered the phone, it was right in front of Sister. How would I have had time to arrange for someone else to do bad things?”
Seeing that they were not far from the car, Yu You’s hurried steps slowed down. She wanted to hear Zhou Muxian explain a few more sentences.
Zhou Muxian seized this opening and continued speaking at a rapid pace. “There are too many bad people outside. Sister and I are the ones living under the same roof. How could I possibly team up with outsiders to deal with Sister? They’re all bad people with bad intentions. They’ll only hurt us. Only if Sister and I unite can the Yu family remain standing.”
“This family would fall apart without Sister! Mom and Dad can’t be without Sister, and Little Sister especially can’t be without Sister! Just like the Sahara Desert can’t be without jaguars!”
“Why can’t the Sahara Desert be without jaguars?” Yu You caught the key point and asked. How had she never heard of this before?
Zhou Muxian chuckled, her eyes staring straight at Yu You’s puzzled face. “There’s no reason. Just like how Little Sister needs Sister. It doesn’t need a reason.”
Yu You stood in front of the car door and froze for a moment. The corners of her mouth faintly lifted, then she forced them back down. Pretending to be unconcerned, she tossed her hair aside and opened the car door. “Mumbling nonsense. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Hurry and get in.”
“Yay, let’s go home!”
Zhou Muxian happily took the umbrella and carefully helped Yu You into the car first so she would not be drenched by the rain, though Yu You had already long since been soaked like a drenched cat.
But Zhou Muxian insisted on being attentive. Yu You’s hand on the steering wheel unconsciously tapped out a cheerful rhythm.
This little sister, when she was obedient, was actually quite obedient.
