Chapter 33.2
Zhou Muxian originally wanted to rush into Yu You’s room in a few steps, but the person in her arms was not behaving at all. She swayed all over the place, almost falling off Zhou Muxian’s body, consuming a lot of Zhou Muxian’s energy. Zhou Muxian could only retreat back into her room and lock the door.
“Ah, the door is open. Youyou isn’t in her room? I remember she just went upstairs.” Mother Yu’s surprised voice came from outside the door.
The person in Zhou Muxian’s arms not only had restless hands and feet, but also kept breathing hot air onto Zhou Muxian’s neck. Hot sweat could not help beading on Zhou Muxian’s forehead again.
“Wu… uncomfortable…”
Yu You whimpered twice. Immediately after, footsteps gradually approached in the corridor. Zhou Muxian was so frightened she rushed to the bedside, laid Yu You down on the bed, and tightly covered her mouth.
Sure enough, Mother Yu’s voice came from the doorway.
“Xian’er, is your sister in your room filming CP videos with you?” As Mother Yu asked against the door, there was also the sound of the doorknob being pressed down.
Fortunately, Zhou Muxian had been meticulous just now and had locked the door. Only then did Mother Yu fail to open it.
Even so, Zhou Muxian was still frightened into a cold sweat. She stammered in response, “No, Sister said she didn’t have time, so I went to soak in a hot bath. Now I’m doing a full-body mud mask.”
“Oh, is that so…” Mother Yu answered half-doubtfully.
But the sound of footsteps that should have left immediately did not come for a long time. Zhou Muxian frowned and guessed that Mother Yu was probably still standing at the door, observing the movements inside the room.
The person beneath her was still not behaving even though her mouth was covered. She actually licked Zhou Muxian’s palm with the tip of her tongue. Zhou Muxian had not expected this action. The unbearable tingling in her palm made her subconsciously loosen her hand slightly.
“Wu…”
Yu You, whose mouth was covered, finally found a chance to let out a muffled sound. Zhou Muxian was so frightened she hurriedly covered Yu You’s mouth harder, but footsteps leaving still did not come from outside the door.
Although Yu You’s mouth was covered, her hands could still move freely. They continuously wandered over Zhou Muxian’s arms and neck, finally landing on Zhou Muxian’s lips, tracing over them again and again.
Tracing back and forth.
Zhou Muxian was about to go mad…
Right now, she needed a suppressant even more than Yu You did!
Yu You’s hand moved from her lips to her neck, drawing a circle there, then slipped to her collarbone and drew a heart there before continuing downward.
She could not go any lower. If she went lower, Zhou Muxian would completely lose her reason.
Zhou Muxian grabbed both of Yu You’s hands and suddenly kissed her, holding Yu You’s mouth with her own so she could not make even the slightest sound.
After a while, footsteps finally sounded from outside, gradually moving away. The suspicious Mother Yu had finally left.
Zhou Muxian’s tense body instinctively relaxed. Just as she slowly loosened her mouth, Yu You suddenly stuck out her tongue and lightly touched Zhou Muxian’s tongue.
Zhou Muxian’s mind exploded with a boom, buzzing nonstop. She pushed Yu You away and turned to find an Alpha suppressant in the cabinet.
A tingling sensation came from her ankle. She turned back and saw that Yu You was firmly hugging her calf, her entire face pressed against it as she rubbed lightly. “So cool.”
Help!
How could Zhou Muxian bear this scene? She wanted to leave but could not. She had already used every bit of strength she had to maintain the last shred of reason.
Today, Yu You had been frightened into heat again by the centipede. For Zhou Muxian, who was in her susceptible period, the power of that faint daisy fragrance was practically nuclear-level.
Not to mention all this physical contact.
At this moment, an irresistible impulse burned in Zhou Muxian’s heart. She wanted to bite hard into the back of Yu You’s neck and inject all the pheromones bottled up inside her into Yu You’s gland.
No. No, she could not. She could not do that…
Zhou Muxian gritted her teeth and tried to seize back her reason, but her hand had already unconsciously pressed down on Yu You’s shoulder, tugging her white shirt down and revealing most of her shoulder.
The heated gland was right there, emitting that faint daisy fragrance, constantly devouring Zhou Muxian’s reason.
In the end, she uncontrollably leaned close, lightly licking it, then tentatively biting twice. Hearing the person beneath her keep making uncomfortable muffled sounds…
Zhou Muxian’s mind exploded into fireworks. Her vision went white, and she could not wait as she bit fiercely into the gland, continuously injecting mandrake pheromones into it.
In that instant, she was satisfied. Freed.
Yu You was also satisfied. Freed.
Zhou Muxian lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. How was she going to explain Yu You’s bitten gland and the pheromones injected into it this time?
The scapegoat Ge Yuan happened not to be here. Right now, she was far away in Shanxi, traveling with Secretary Chen.
She could not possibly say that Zhou Muxian saw how pitiful Yu You was in heat and found a reliable Alpha in the Yu residence to temporarily mark her, right?
That was far too absurd.
Beside her, Yu You had fallen into deep sleep. The sleeping phenomenon after each heat was as stable as ever.
Zhou Muxian sighed and anxiously scratched her head. She had always been quick-witted and good at improvising, but no matter what, she could not think of a perfect excuse.
Time passed by, second by second, minute by minute.
Yu You woke up.
Sensing the bone-deep pain coming from the back of her neck, she subconsciously reached out to check. After sensing the tooth marks and signs that pheromones had been injected, she struggled to sit up and looked at Zhou Muxian.
Zhou Muxian lowered her head, not daring to meet Yu You’s eyes. How was she supposed to explain this? There was simply no way to explain it.
No matter how she explained, there would be loopholes.
Forget it. If there was really no other way, she would admit her Alpha identity.
Zhou Muxian sighed and slowly raised her head, only to be shoved down onto the bed by Yu You’s hard palm.
“Zhou Muxian, you really are too perverted, aren’t you?”
Yu You stared at her speechlessly. That impatient expression looked as if she would slap Zhou Muxian in the next second.
Zhou Muxian slowly sat up and murmured with her head lowered, “Th-this doesn’t quite reach the level of perversion, does it?”
“Pretending to be an Alpha and biting my gland with all your strength isn’t perverted?” The more Yu You spoke, the angrier she became. She grabbed a pillow nearby and hit Zhou Muxian’s shoulder. “And you even injected suppressant into my gland. Don’t you know suppressants can’t be injected directly into the gland and can only be injected nearby? This can cause irreversible damage to my gland!”
Zhou Muxian raised her eyes and stared blankly at Yu You’s angry face. No matter how she looked, she could not tell that Yu You was acting. Yu You really seemed to think that was what had happened.
“Uh…”
For the first time, Zhou Muxian, who had always been eloquent, was at a loss for words. She was stunned by Yu You’s train of thought and did not know how to respond.
Seeing her like this, Yu You became even angrier and grabbed the pillow to hit her again. “I don’t have time to play this perverted cosplay with you! No wonder Mom suspects we’re dating. Tell me honestly, do you really have feelings for me?!”
Zhou Muxian was hit until her long hair flew everywhere. Pitifully, she lowered her eyes and said, “Sister is so outstanding. Who wouldn’t like Sister? Is that really my fault? Isn’t it because Sister is too outstanding and too dazzling? No matter how you look at it, it’s Sister’s fault.”
Yu You froze. After thinking about it carefully, she put down the pillow and slowly nodded. “What you said does make some sense. It’s true that I’m too charming. No matter who meets me, they’ll be fascinated by me.”
Zhou Muxian quietly lifted her eyes and glanced at her. Seeing that her expression had calmed a lot, she hurriedly continued, “Exactly, exactly. Anyone who sees Sister would lose self-control…”
Before she could finish, the soft pillow swung toward Zhou Muxian’s face, smashing her vision black and making her ears buzz.
“But that isn’t a reason for you to pretend to be an Alpha and bite my gland! And it’s even less of a reason for you to inject suppressant into my gland!”
Yu You’s voice still carried anger.
Zhou Muxian blinked and tried hard to squeeze out a tearful look. “I’m sorry, Sister. I was wrong. I won’t dare do it again.”
Seeing that her attitude in admitting fault was excellent, Yu You could not say anything else. As she angrily stood up, she glanced at Zhou Muxian again. “You really like me?”
“I really like you.” Zhou Muxian sincerely nodded.
The corners of Yu You’s mouth lifted slightly. She raised her hand and placed it on Zhou Muxian’s lowered head, patting it lightly. “Then you’d better hide this liking of yours well. Mom won’t allow you to like an Omega.”
With Yu You patting her head, Zhou Muxian felt happiness bloom in her heart. Unable to help getting carried away, she lifted her head and asked with a smile, “What about Sister? Would Sister like an Omega?”
Yu You’s eyelid twitched. She pressed Zhou Muxian’s head back down with her hand and answered irritably, “How could I possibly like an Omega? Omegas liking Omegas shortens their lifespan. I’m someone who wants to live to a hundred.”
“Even a tiny bit?” Zhou Muxian refused to give up and asked again.
By now, Yu You had already jumped off the bed. She crossed her arms and looked coldly at Zhou Muxian. “You’d better give up on that thought.”
Hearing this, Zhou Muxian put on an injured expression, covered her heart, and fell onto the bed. “Okay, Sister. Then I’ll go die now.”
Yu You’s steps turned, and she walked to the bed. Grabbing Zhou Muxian by the collar, she dragged her closer and fiercely ordered, “If you like me, then you have to listen to me. You can only die if I allow you to die. If I don’t allow it, you’re not allowed to die on your own.”
Zhou Muxian was delighted inside, but her mouth still pretended to be pitiful. “What a domineering Sister.”
Yu You snorted coldly and suddenly let go. Only after Zhou Muxian fell back onto the bed did she say, “I’m just this domineering. If you’re capable, then stop liking me.”
“I like you, I like you. No matter what Sister is like, I like you.”
Zhou Muxian hurriedly climbed up and smiled as she lightly shook Yu You’s arm. Yu You shook off her hand, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously lifted, and her tone was gentler than ever before. “Be more obedient in the future, and I’ll treat you a little better.”
“I’m obedient. I’m very obedient.” Zhou Muxian smiled cheerfully at Yu You. But when she lifted her hand, a black thing bounced out of her pocket.
Yu You did not see it clearly and stepped on it. With a crack, the plastic thing beneath her foot immediately shattered into pieces. She lowered her head and saw that it was the centipede that had appeared in her room.
It was a plastic toy centipede.
“You…!”
Yu You’s eyes widened angrily as she glared at Zhou Muxian. Zhou Muxian instinctively shrank her neck and raised her hand in front of herself, afraid Yu You would suddenly slap her.
“You dare mess with me? You’re dead. I’ll remember this grudge.”
The expected slap did not fall. Yu You’s tone as she issued the threat was not truly angry either. Instead, it carried a bit of playful meaning, which surprised Zhou Muxian greatly.
Yu You walked straight to the door, then suddenly stopped and faintly looked back to add, “This is at home. Don’t always play these childish crooked tricks and use them as an excuse to take advantage of me. If Mom finds out, you’ll have consequences to suffer.”
“Okay, Sister. I won’t do it next time.” Zhou Muxian agreed without even thinking.
Hearing this, Yu You gave her two meaningful looks but said nothing. She opened the door and walked out.
Half an hour later, Zhou Muxian went downstairs to drink water and happened to hear someone ring the doorbell. Seeing no one on the first floor, she walked toward the front door.
Creak—
After the door opened, a young man stood at the entrance holding a cream cake and smiling brightly. “Hello. This is the ceramic cake you ordered. It’s finished.”
Zhou Muxian looked at the cake in his hands in disbelief. None of the cream flowers had a flower shape; they looked like squeezed-out piles of poop. The entire cake bulged and caved in unevenly, and in the middle, a few crooked words were written—
Sister Is the Most Beautiful.
Wasn’t this the birthday cake she had personally made for Yu You that day?
Wasn’t this the birthday cake Yu You had fiercely disliked that day?
Wasn’t this the birthday cake she had casually placed on a corner table and abandoned there?
Who???
Who had taken this ugly cake and made it into a ceramic cake???
It couldn’t be Yu You, could it?
“Excuse me, may I ask who commissioned you to make this cake?” Zhou Muxian looked eagerly at the person before her, wanting to know the answer.
Seeing Zhou Muxian’s urgent tone, which carried an air of interrogation, the young man hurriedly explained in panic, “Oh, you might not know this, but when the original cake was brought in, it already looked like this. We did a one-to-one custom reproduction. We weren’t deliberately cutting corners or intentionally making it this ugly.”
“I know. I’m asking, who commissioned you to make this cake?” Zhou Muxian’s tone became even more anxious. She wanted to verify whether the guess in her heart could possibly be true.
The young man felt that the woman before him did not seem easy to deal with and was afraid that saying the client’s name might cause trouble. So he very politely found an excuse. “Please wait a moment. I have a call I need to take right away.”
Zhou Muxian watched helplessly as he hurried to a corner of the courtyard and muttered on the phone for a while. When the young man came back, his face was full of smiles.
“Miss, this cake was custom ordered by Miss Chun Ling. She said every heartfelt intention deserves to be preserved forever.”
Zhou Muxian gave a disappointed oh and took the ceramic cake from him, slowly walking into the living room. After waiting for quite a while, Chun Ling’s surprised voice finally came from the staircase. “Ah, it arrived? I’ll go call Yu You down to see.”
Three minutes later, Chun Ling pulled the unwilling Yu You into the living room. “How is it? Isn’t this cake a perfect replica?”
Zhou Muxian stared closely at Yu You, hoping to catch some different expression on her face. But Yu You merely crossed her arms indifferently. “Only someone like you would think to turn a cake into a ceramic ornament.”
“Oh, but this is Little Sister’s heartfelt intention. It should be preserved.” As Chun Ling spoke, she picked up the ceramic cake and carefully moved closer to Yu You. “Should we put it in your room?”
Yu You immediately turned her face away. “I don’t want it. Having such an ugly thing in my room would simply lower my aesthetic taste.”
Chun Ling looked around in distress. “Then where should we put it? This is your little sister’s heartfelt intention. How about the display cabinet, with Uncle Yu’s red wine?”
As she spoke, she looked toward a display cabinet in the living room and was just about to walk over when Yu You snatched the ceramic cake from her hands. “This ugly cake doesn’t match the red wine. You don’t understand. This thing has to be displayed on its own.”
As she spoke, she walked to the entryway, took down the golden Buddha ornament in the wall niche, and placed the ugly cake there.
Zhou Muxian and Chun Ling widened their eyes in shock and chased after her, staring at Yu You in disbelief. Yu You glanced at the two of them unconcernedly. “What? Is there a problem?”
She swept her gaze over the whole living room, then glanced at the entryway and shrugged. “This is the only place where it stands alone. Every other place is unsuitable for this ugly cake. It would clash with everything and lower the taste.”
Zhou Muxian scratched her head. For a moment, she could not tell whether Yu You hated this ugly cake or wanted to show it off. This was the most conspicuous place in the entryway. Everyone entering or leaving could see it.
The instant the corners of Zhou Muxian’s mouth lifted slightly, Yu You caught it clearly. Yu You immediately added irritably, “In any case, I will not allow this thing into my room. As long as it isn’t in my room, I don’t care where it’s placed.”
Chun Ling lowered her head and laughed softly. She had the urge to tease Yu You and deliberately reached for the ugly cake. “Then how about putting it in my room? If it’s placed here, people might laugh at it easily.”
Yu You grew uncomfortable. While smoothing her long curls, she scoffed. “Put it in your room? Aren’t you afraid of having nightmares? Just put it here. Who has such a low laugh threshold? Who laughs every day for no reason? I don’t find it funny.”
This time, Zhou Muxian understood. Yu You was extremely pleased.
She could not stop herself from grinning, her tail practically about to lift into the sky. “I think it’s funny. Hehe.”
Yu You was amused by Zhou Muxian’s silly look, but she still licked her back teeth and forced herself to hold back her smile. She turned to go upstairs, but Zhou Muxian moved closer with a grin and let out two more hehe laughs.
This time, Yu You truly could not hold it in. She burst out laughing with a pfft, then somewhat angrily turned her face to the other side.
“Hehe.”
Zhou Muxian leaned closer with another silly laugh. Yu You truly could not stand her foolish look. She also faintly realized that her behavior just now had seemed far too caring, which made her feel unbearably embarrassed. Her face turned red, and the corners of her mouth stretched all the way to her ears.
“You’re so annoying. I’m going to sleep!”
Yu You angrily pushed Zhou Muxian away and quickly stepped up the stairs, rushing into her room at the speed of an eight-hundred-meter sprint.
Early the next morning, Father Yu got up, preparing to go out.
Bleary-eyed, he walked to the entryway. Without looking, he instinctively bowed toward the wall niche. But when he raised his head, his foot nearly slipped.
Where did this ugly cake come from?!
“Who! Who put this thing here? Do they have any brains?!” Father Yu flew into a rage and shouted. Auntie Wang, who was mopping the kitchen floor, immediately trotted out.
“Youyou placed it here. She said it was the birthday cake Xian’er personally made.”
Father Yu was greatly shocked. He had not expected Zhou Muxian to have personally made Yu You a cake, and even more, he had not expected Yu You to place such an ugly cake here.
“How many days can this cake last? It’ll start stinking in a few days. Auntie Wang, you’d better take the cake down and let Youyou eat it soon.”
Auntie Wang smiled and explained, “This cake is a one-to-one ceramic replica. It can be preserved forever.”
Father Yu had nothing to say. He turned his head and looked at the ugly cake, both amused and helpless. “So this means this ugly cake is going to be placed here for a lifetime?”
Half an hour later, Mother Yu came downstairs and also saw this astonishing ugly cake. She likewise learned what had happened from Auntie Wang.
She looked at the ugly cake before her and found it hard to stay calm. This did not seem like Yu You’s usual style. She had raised this child herself, so she understood her best.
There was definitely something budding between Yu You and Zhou Muxian.
She had to snuff out this spark early, before it truly caught fire.
Mother Yu made a prompt decision and took out her phone to make a call. “Hello, Zizi. You haven’t come to our house to play in such a long time. Auntie misses you. Are you free to come over for a family dinner tonight?
“Auntie still hasn’t formally introduced you to Xian’er. You met at the birthday banquet? That doesn’t count. It only counts after we’ve had a family dinner at home. Good. Then Auntie will wait for you.”
