A Tsundere Beauty Omega is Stubborn but Sweet - Chapter 25

Ding—

A message came in on the phone on the table. Zhou Muxian leaned over and glanced at it. It was from Princess Fenxiang.

[Princess Fenxiang: Last time at school, you said more haste means less speed. I thought about it, and it does make sense. I can help you plan things slowly.]

[Princess Fenxiang: Winter break has already started, right? When are you free to meet? I can teach you all the business methods you want to learn without holding anything back.]

Would that old fox really be so kind?

Zhou Muxian had no desire to agree at all. But when she thought about it, if she refused so directly, there was no guarantee Princess Fenxiang would not come up with some new way to deal with the Yu elders.

She might as well keep maneuvering around her.

[Zhou Muxian: Actually, a lot of things don’t necessarily have to be discussed face-to-face. Talking on the phone is the same.]

[Zhou Muxian: I’m free at three in the morning tonight. If you’re not busy, just call me then.]

Zhou Muxian deliberately chose a time when the entire family would be fast asleep, ensuring that her conversation with Princess Fenxiang would not be interrupted, much less discovered by Yu You.

After a few minutes, Princess Fenxiang replied.

[Princess Fenxiang: Three o’clock, right? Fine.]

Knock, knock, knock—

The sudden knocking startled Zhou Muxian. Guilty like a thief, her hand shook violently, and her phone bounced twice on the floor before sliding under the bed.

“Little Sister, do you want watermelon?”

It was Chun Ling’s voice, boundlessly gentle and thoughtfully inquiring, as if she would not get angry even if refused.

Still, who ate watermelon in the middle of winter?

“Sister Chun Ling, I won’t eat any.”

Zhou Muxian refused through the door, but the dull knocking sounded again. This time, it was Yu You’s voice, carrying a bit of anger. “Why are you always talking with the door closed? That’s very impolite. Open the door and talk!”

It was indeed very impolite.

But right now, outside influences were affecting her pheromones far too strongly. Zhou Muxian took a deep breath and silently brainwashed herself: endure it, endure it.

Creak—

After the door opened, Chun Ling stood at the doorway in a fresh floral blouse, while her sexy fishtail skirt somehow carried a mature feminine charm on her.

Yu You was still wearing that white sweater, arms crossed over her chest, staring down at Zhou Muxian with a condescending look.

Zhou Muxian did not look much at Yu You. But in the instant her gaze swept past, she noticed a glistening sheen of sweat on Yu You’s neck.

The temperature in the residence was not low. One would not be cold even wearing a camisole nightdress. Yu You usually dressed coolly enough, so why had she been wearing that white sweater since daytime?

She was sweating and still would not take it off?

“Sister Chun Ling, I won’t eat watermelon. You two go ahead.” Zhou Muxian repeated politely.

Chun Ling did not force her and immediately responded, “Okay, then we’ll go eat.”

As she spoke, she was about to turn and go downstairs, but Yu You still stood there with her arms crossed and did not move. Seeing this, Zhou Muxian looked up at her in confusion.

Meeting Zhou Muxian’s examining gaze, Yu You gave a disdainful tch and spoke sarcastically. “Looks like in this whole residence, only Chun Ling is a living person.”

Zhou Muxian immediately reacted. Yu You was angry that Zhou Muxian had only greeted Chun Ling and ignored her.

“Sister…”

Zhou Muxian called out, then pressed her lips together, wanting to say something concerned. “Sister, aren’t you hot wearing that sweater?”

Hearing this, Yu You’s anger flared. She grabbed Zhou Muxian’s arm and pulled her to the side, lowering her voice. “You still have the nerve to say that? My arms, collarbone, and back are all covered in bite marks and bruises from you. How am I supposed to face people?”

Zhou Muxian had not thought of this matter for a moment. Being pressed against the wall and questioned by Yu You, her already weak aura instantly became even more flustered. She lowered her head and looked elsewhere. “Sorry.”

Seeing the two sisters being all clingy in the corridor, Chun Ling tactfully went downstairs at once.

Once Chun Ling left, Yu You became even more unrestrained.

“Sorry? A light apology won’t solve the problem.”

Zhou Muxian knew Yu You had already thought of a way to torment her. If she answered, there would be no path of escape left. But as if possessed, she still answered quickly.

“Then what does Sister want me to do?”

Yu You had been waiting for Zhou Muxian to soften up with that exact sentence. Without another word, she lifted Zhou Muxian’s sleeve and bit down.

“Hiss—”

Zhou Muxian immediately sucked in a cold breath. Yu You was really biting. She was not pretending at all. Zhou Muxian’s tense body trembled as if shocked by electricity, and the painful, itchy sensation on her arm gradually became comfortable.

It actually made her a little addicted.

So much so that the instant Yu You released her mouth, Zhou Muxian felt an empty sensation in her heart. Instinctively, she grabbed Yu You’s wrist as Yu You was about to turn and go downstairs.

“What are you doing? You want revenge?” Yu You turned back to look at Zhou Muxian, a trace of caution appearing in her eyes.

Zhou Muxian did not speak or look at her. She only kept tightening her grip around Yu You’s wrist. The indescribable desire in her heart and her usual powerful self-control were fighting wildly inside her body for dominance.

Yu You’s wrist hurt. Seeing Zhou Muxian still standing there like a block of wood, she simply lowered her head and bit down fiercely on Zhou Muxian’s left hand.

The sharp, painful, itchy, numbing feeling traveled to her heart like electricity. The corners of Zhou Muxian’s mouth lifted slightly, and her expression revealed a bit of intoxication. If only this bite were not on her hand, but on her neck. How wonderful that would be.

Or perhaps, if this bite were delivered by her onto Yu You’s gland.

Yu You released her mouth and, with one shake of her hand, turned to leave. But Zhou Muxian wrapped her arms around her waist from behind.

“Sister.”

Zhou Muxian pressed tightly against Yu You’s back and called out aggrievedly. Yu You, who had accumulated a whole day’s worth of anger, instantly relaxed, and her tone became much gentler than before.

“If you were always this obedient, Dad, Mom, and I wouldn’t give you any trouble…”

Yu You’s words paused here, because the hands around her waist were now kneading her waist through the sweater without restraint, like squeezing a stress-relief toy.

The head against her back was also nuzzling her like a kitten, each time harder than the last, as if wanting to nudge her from the corridor all the way downstairs.

“Why are you in heat again?”

Yu You turned around to look at Zhou Muxian. Seeing that Zhou Muxian’s cheeks were indeed burning hot, she hurriedly pushed her into the room behind her. Taking advantage of Zhou Muxian being unprepared, she shoved her hard onto the bed.

Zhou Muxian was knocked dizzy and disoriented, unable to recover for a moment.

Yu You seized the chance to open the drawer. After rummaging around a few times, she found that there was not a single Omega suppressant.

Zhou Muxian climbed up, hurriedly opened an Alpha suppressant, and injected it into Zhou Muxian’s neck.

Her technique could be called rough, but it was also very precise.

Zhou Muxian hissed and regained her senses. Embarrassed, she jumped off the bed and apologized obediently. “I’m sorry, Sister. I scared you.”

Yu You’s gaze landed on the drawer. “You’re too careless. Everything you bought is Alpha suppressants. Next time, look carefully before buying. Fortunately, the Alpha suppressant from this brand actually works a little on Omegas too. Looks like in the years I was abroad, domestic technology developed very quickly.”

As she spoke, she took out her phone and snapped a photo of the suppressant packaging. “From now on, just buy this brand of suppressants.”

Zhou Muxian stood beside her without making a sound. She actually felt that this brand of suppressant did not work well. It did not take effect quickly enough, and its effect was neither long-lasting nor stable enough, causing her to inject so many yesterday.

“Oh, right.”

Yu You, who was crouched in front of the cabinet, suddenly spoke in a somewhat cautious tone. “This Sunday is my birthday. Are you coming?”

Zhou Muxian had never seen such a careful Yu You before and was momentarily stunned. She tried hard to recall whether there was any plot about this birthday in the original book, but she could not remember.

Since she had no impression of it, it probably was not an important plot, right?

Seeing that Zhou Muxian did not answer immediately, Yu You instantly became annoyed. With her face flushed red, she abruptly stood up, nearly bumping her head into Zhou Muxian beside her. Fortunately, Zhou Muxian’s eyes and feet were quick, and she swiftly took a step back.

“I just said it casually. Come if you want, don’t come if you don’t.”

Yu You threw down these words irritably, walked around Zhou Muxian, and strode toward the door.

Zhou Muxian hurriedly answered her retreating back. “Of course I’ll go to Sister’s birthday! Even if there’s an earthquake or tsunami, I’ll ride a drone there to attend!”

Yu You’s footsteps slowed, and her tense back also relaxed, revealing a bit of ease. She stood there and held it in for a few seconds before slowly turning back.

On her calm face was a pair of bright eyes that could not hide their happiness. “Then I have to remind you. If you’re coming, come early. If you’re late, there won’t be a seat for you to eat.”

“Yes, ma’am~”

Zhou Muxian grinned. On that hard-to-read face, a bit of simple, silly charm actually appeared. And this grin truly amused Yu You.

She could not help letting out a scoff of laughter, then tried hard to hold the smile back. Her alluring eyes lingered on Zhou Muxian as she slowly turned her head back.

Only after Yu You’s figure disappeared from the doorway did Zhou Muxian let out a breath.

Fortunately, Yu You had left quickly. If she had been a little slower, if Zhou Muxian had looked at her a few seconds longer, Zhou Muxian would have lost control of herself again.

Ding—

The sound of a phone notification suddenly came from beneath the bed. Zhou Muxian hurriedly knelt on the floor, reached under the bed, and pulled out her phone.

[Ge Yuan: Muxian, I heard tomorrow is Yu You’s birthday. Last time at school, she gave me such expensive jewelry, and I’ve always felt bad about it. I prepared a small gift. I hope you can help pass it to her tomorrow and convey my blessings.]

[Zhou Muxian: Okay. I’ll come get it tomorrow.]

[Zhou Muxian: By the way, how has your dad’s work been lately? Is it stable?]

[Ge Yuan: Very stable. His boss hasn’t made trouble for him, and they haven’t asked him to go out of town to drive any oil tankers again.]

After receiving the message, Zhou Muxian breathed a sigh of relief.

Great. She could finally sleep peacefully.
