A Yandere Omega Abandoned Me After Getting Pregnant - Chapter 13
Ye Xingran didn’t say it very loudly, and since she was standing close to Wei Xuejin, she assumed not many people would hear her.
However, the disadvantage was that it was early morning. To avoid being late, Ye Xingran had arrived quite early. The location was an open plaza, making it exceptionally quiet. Consequently, even a slightly raised voice could be heard by anyone within a five-mile radius.
Including the female lead, Wei Yunzhu, who had just arrived with other students to take attendance: ?
She had no idea when the “clingy pest” Ye Xingran had gotten involved with her respected aunt, but she knew one thing… no matter what, Ye Xingran shouldn’t speak to her aunt like that. What was going on?
This was way too much.
Wei Yunzhu truly respected her aunt, Wei Xuejin, and couldn’t stand seeing Ye Xingran treat her this way. “Stalker”? Was she sure she was talking about her aunt and not herself?
The nerve of this person to call someone else out!
“Ye Xingran!”
Fearing Ye Xingran would say something even weirder in front of her aunt, Wei Yunzhu didn’t care about anything else. She lunged forward, grabbed Ye Xingran, pulled her behind her, and hissed in a low voice: “What on earth are you doing? This summer internship project is provided and arranged by my aunt’s company. This whole building belongs to her. Why would she be stalking you?”
“Would she openly stalk you with a dozen bodyguards? Get a grip!”
Ye Xingran: “…” She realized, belatedly, that she had been driven stupid by her nightmare. She was already covering her bright red face, wishing she could dig a hole and hide.
But whose fault was it that she had spent all night dreaming about a cold, noble Omega chasing her down to confess… and… and engaging in all sorts of face-reddening kisses?
Seeing that face in real life triggered a stress response. Besides, she had never seen a CEO arrive at the office before 8:30 AM. Is there such a thing as being too early?!
So… she got a little too excited when she saw her, and now… it was a total social death. Ugh.
“If—and I say if—you’re doing this to get my attention, I suggest you give up now. I won’t like you.”
Wei Yunzhu couldn’t understand why Ye Xingran dared to speak so boldly to her aunt. Recalling the girl’s past “operations” to get close to her, she couldn’t help but think in that direction. However, to avoid sounding too narcissistic, she emphasized the word “if.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t like you either,” Ye Xingran immediately stated her stance.
Wei Yunzhu was momentarily choked up. “Then why did you come to find my aunt? What is your relationship?”
Wei Yunzhu felt her youngest aunt was someone not to be trifled with. Though her aunt was good to her, it didn’t mean she was the warm or good-tempered type. While she hadn’t seen the full extent of her aunt’s methods, her parents’ respectful attitude told her enough… she wouldn’t dare act up in front of her.
In all her years, she had never seen anyone as daring as Ye Xingran speak to her aunt like that. While she respected the girl for being a “strong Alpha,” she also sweated for her. This was not a game.
“What I discuss with your aunt is none of your concern, right?” Ye Xingran said, looking like she couldn’t be bothered to talk to her.
She truly hadn’t slept well, as evidenced by the dark circles under her eyes. Yet, she was still beautiful, and the faint blue beneath her eyes added a peculiar charm to her look.
“Ye Xingran, we are classmates. I’m saying this for your own good. Do you think I want to care about you?” Wei Yunzhu said, her voice rising in defensive anger at the sudden shift in Ye Xingran’s attitude.
“Oh, then I really thank you for your ‘concern,'” Ye Xingran shrugged with total indifference.
“You…”
Ye Xingran ignored her, but noticed the surroundings were… even quieter than before. Looking around, she realized Wei Xuejin and her team hadn’t left. Instead, they were standing aside quietly, as if waiting for them to finish their conversation.
Ye Xingran: “…”
Not only was her face burning… this was a total social catastrophe. Why would a big boss deign to wait for people like this?! Shouldn’t she have left ages ago?! At the very least, shouldn’t she look impatient? Why was she looking over with such a calm expression? Ugh…
[Ah~ Host, the Auntie really loves you~] The System praised emotionally in her mind.
“Shut up.” Ye Xingran covered her burning face and locked eyes with Wei Xuejin, as if she refused to be the first to look away.
It was hard to tell what she was being stubborn about.
You couldn’t really blame her. Anyone who spent a whole night dreaming of someone whispering “I like you” a hundred times in their ear would react even more dramatically. And this wasn’t because Ye Xingran was obsessed; it was the System’s chaotic intervention.
Every time Wei Xuejin’s Love Points increased in her sleep, Ye Xingran dreamed about it. The System couldn’t report them all while she was awake, so it sent them into her dreams. Perfectly normal, right?
Even the System didn’t know why this was happening… it had managed many hosts and targets, but it had never seen lag this bad! It simply had no explanation.
“You didn’t sleep well last night?” Wei Xuejin was indeed cultured; she didn’t show a hint of impatience while waiting.
She walked over to Ye Xingran. Seeing the obvious dark circles and the black-and-white fluffy creature on her shoulder, she felt they looked even more alike. The fluffy thing was slumped on the little Alpha’s shoulder, looking listless and resting its face on its paw—the picture of pity.
However, for some reason, when it looked at her, its face turned red. After a while, it covered its face with its paws, leaving only the cowlick on its head visible.
Wei Xuejin’s eternally quiet heart seemed to throb again. This time, the perceived emotion was strong, different from yesterday, though she couldn’t pinpoint how. Still, being able to feel something was pleasant. Especially when Ye Xingran looked at her with that mix of resentment and hesitation, she felt a surge of joy… an urge to tease her.
“Thanks to you, I really didn’t sleep well.” Ye Xingran had “morning grumpiness” when sleep-deprived. Seeing the culprit in front of her, she wasn’t very welcoming, despite the large amount of Love Points the woman had contributed. She snapped at whoever ruined her sleep.
“Why?” Wei Xuejin asked earnestly, not understanding.
“…” Facing that sincere gaze, Ye Xingran felt as though she were being doted on. She… she doesn’t need to dote on me, okay!
“Nothing. None of your business.” Ye Xingran shot her an annoyed look and walked back toward the group of interns.
She looked adorably grumpy as she walked away. The fluffy creature on her shoulder also looked at Wei Xuejin with a haughty, “tsundere” expression, its face remaining pink.
My heart is beating quite fast, Wei Xuejin thought silently, feeling the changes in her body.
At this moment, she didn’t want Ye Xingran to leave. Seeing the girl was angry—seemingly because she hadn’t slept well due to her—Wei Xuejin instinctively caught her by the elbow.
“Don’t be angry. At your age, it’s normal to have those kinds of dreams. It just proves you’ve grown up. It’s a good thing.”
Ye Xingran: “???” What “those” dreams? What “grown up”? What kind of wild things are you imagining as a CEO??
“Why aren’t you speaking? Did I hit the mark?” Wei Xuejin observed her expression closely. “Don’t worry. I know you’re shy. I’ll keep your secret.”
Ye Xingran: “…” Someone just kill me now!
She couldn’t be bothered to talk to her anymore. She shook off her hand and walked ahead, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She turned back and snapped: “Since President Wei is so familiar with these things, you must have those dreams often, right?”
“How very scandalous.”
Before the woman could react, she turned and left.
Wei Xuejin: “…”
“Pfft—is that the little Alpha you like? Quite the personality. A pink-haired Alpha… I’ve truly never seen one before.”
Shen Qianyi watched Ye Xingran storm off with a grin. The girl was young; she couldn’t hide her thoughts at all. “She seems quite upset. Aren’t you going to coax her?”
“…I tried. It didn’t work.” In truth, Wei Xuejin couldn’t tell exactly how upset she was; she was just judging by her reactions. Her attempt at “coaxing” seemed to have missed the mark. Now that Shen Qianyi said she was upset, Wei Xuejin followed up for advice. After all, Shen Qianyi was much more experienced.
“Well, your method was probably wrong. You don’t need to do much—sending some breakfast should work. But remember, don’t send it only to her.”
Shen Qianyi knew Wei Xuejin was socially stunted—or rather, emotionally stunted—so she gave her a hint.
“Okay. I’ll try again.” Wei Xuejin agreed without hesitation.
Fifteen minutes later, every person in the intern waiting room received a lavish breakfast.
Ye Xingran’s portion was exceptionally abundant. Furthermore, inside her bag, there was an extra… small wood carving. She vaguely recognized it as the shape of the pink snake from yesterday.
Ye Xingran: “…”
[Wow! An ‘Auntie Special Edition’ heart wood carving~ Host, you’re so good~]
The System scattered virtual stars in her mind, nearly blinding her.
“…As an AI, why are you more nauseating than a human?”
[Hmph! How am I nauseating? I’m just being sincere!]
Ye Xingran: “…”
She ignored it but couldn’t help holding the little snake carving to examine it. She looked genuinely interested. “Did she really carve this? Why?” The woman didn’t look like someone who had the time or inclination for woodworking.
[Want to know? Go ask her in person~ And Host, don’t you want to know why the ‘Love Points’ kept chiming after you left her last night, even in your dreams?]
[Look! The points from the Auntie have reached 105!!! In just one night! 105!!!! You’ve broken every record of my previous hosts!!!]
The System set off a small firework in her head, clearly in a great mood.
Ye Xingran: “…” I’m going to be deaf before the week is over.
“Ye Xingran, why do you have a wood carving made by my aunt?” Wei Yunzhu had been keeping an eye on Ye Xingran all morning. One look at the carving and she recognized it as her aunt’s work. Her aunt’s carvings were never given away; collectors had offered high prices for them and were rejected. Her aunt didn’t sell her work.
Yet, here was her aunt, giving a piece to Ye Xingran?
How was that possible? Ye Xingran must have used some trick to get her attention! How detestable.
“None of your business.” Ye Xingran saw her coming and immediately closed her hand over the carving, not letting her see so much as a corner of it.
“…She is my aunt. Don’t go getting ideas about her.” Chagrined at being dismissed again, Wei Yunzhu looked aggrieved.
“You’re quite funny. I stop following you and focus on someone else, and you tell me not to get ideas about your aunt?” Ye Xingran chuckled. “Maybe you should consider who is getting ideas about whom.”
“It’s not like my aunt is the one interested in you. Who do you think my aunt is? How could she like you?” Wei Yunzhu didn’t think that was even a possibility.
“And if it’s true? What then?” To be honest, Ye Xingran didn’t want to offend the female lead, but it wasn’t up to her. When someone practically begs to be offended… what choice did she have?
“If it’s true… I’ll… I’ll be your errand girl for a whole month! I’ll do whatever you say!”
Just then, Wei Xuejin walked in with several executives in charge of the project. Though the other students weren’t part of the argument, they had been listening intently to the gossip.
One student, who loved drama and had a bit of a grudge against Ye Xingran, called out loudly toward Wei Xuejin: “President Wei, is it true that Ye Xingran says you like her?”
In an instant, every eye in the room snapped to Ye Xingran and Wei Xuejin, like searchlights filled with raw curiosity, waiting for an answer.
Ye Xingran: “…”
