After Desperately Pretending To Be An Omega In Front Of My Girlfriend - Chapter 7
Every hair on Qi Yu’s body stood on end.
She desperately tried to push Gu Qian off her.
Unfortunately, the woman above her had skin as smooth and soft as fine jade. The moment Qi Yu wrapped her fingers around Gu Qian’s slender arm, it felt as though she were touching the finest white jade and rich cream.
Her fingertips began stroking Gu Qian’s skin almost instinctively.
She couldn’t bear to let go.
Gu Qian let out a soft hum.
In an instant, the fragrance of hibiscus exploded throughout the room, blending with the heavy scent of alcohol and leaving Qi Yu’s mind hazy.
No.
No, no.
If this continues, I’m really going to be forced into heat!
Gritting her teeth, Qi Yu bit down hard on the tip of her tongue.
The sharp pain gave her a brief moment of clarity.
The strength an Alpha could unleash in an instant was tremendous.
No longer able to worry about treating Gu Qian gently, Qi Yu shoved the dazed woman aside, scrambled off the bed, and rushed to find her handbag.
Suppressant.
Suppressant, suppressant, suppressant!
Her hands trembled as she frantically rummaged through the bag, tossing cosmetics and miscellaneous items onto the floor with a series of clattering sounds.
Found it!
The moment Qi Yu saw the green suppressant injector, she felt like someone lost in darkness who had finally discovered a spark of fire.
She released a deep breath of relief and hurriedly injected the suppressant into her body.
“Mm…”
As the drug entered her bloodstream, Qi Yu let out a muffled groan.
All the strength seemed to drain from her body.
She leaned sideways against the wall, panting weakly, and pressed her burning face against the cool surface as the overwhelming tide of desire slowly receded from her body.
No wonder the main ingredient in modern suppressants is the same as the chemical-castration drugs used to punish sex offenders…
Qi Yu tried to amuse herself despite her misery.
Being forcibly dragged out of arousal was truly agonizing.
Having been forced into a state of complete post-desire clarity, Qi Yu nearly forgot about Gu Qian, whom she’d left to one side.
At some point, Gu Qian had climbed out of bed and pressed herself against Qi Yu again, wrapping her tightly from behind.
Under the influence of the drugged alcohol, Gu Qian had clearly fallen into a deeply confused state.
She had no idea where she was or what she was doing.
Qi Yu pushed her back slightly.
Seeing that the long hair at Gu Qian’s temples was already soaked with sweat, she couldn’t help feeling sorry for her.
“Don’t panic,” she said gently. “I’ll find your suppressant.”
As she searched through Gu Qian’s bag, Qi Yu cursed President Chen viciously in her heart.
After digging around for quite some time, she finally found a small bottle of suppressant specifically made for Omegas hidden in an inner compartment.
Before she could turn around—
A sharp pain suddenly pierced the back of her neck.
Oh no!
Gu Qian bit my gland!
Qi Yu’s vision went dark.
An Alpha could inject pheromones into an Omega’s gland to create a temporary mark.
Likewise, an Omega could temporarily mark an Alpha in reverse.
However, because an Alpha’s metabolism was too fast, the mark would lose its effect after only a few hours.
Yet whether it was an ordinary temporary mark or a reverse temporary mark, while the effect lasted, neither Alpha nor Omega could resist the person who had marked them.
All strength instantly vanished from Qi Yu’s body.
Her knees buckled, and she slid down onto the floor.
Gu Qian had no idea that she had just accomplished something remarkable entirely by accident.
Following instinct alone, she kept her teeth against the back of Qi Yu’s neck.
Then, from the depths of her body to the deepest part of her heart, an indescribable sense of satisfaction surged through her.
Qi Yu watched helplessly as the suppressant slipped from her hand, fell to the floor, and rolled several times before disappearing beneath the bed.
She was completely powerless.
She wanted to cry.
“Big Sister…”
“Big Sister…”
She called Gu Qian in despair, unable to say anything else.
Qi Yu also understood that if Gu Qian hadn’t been in such an extremely disoriented state, the Omega identity Qi Yu had maintained for three years would have been completely exposed because of one damned glass of alcohol.
She couldn’t decide whether to consider herself unlucky or fortunate.
Forget it.
I only need to endure a few hours…
Qi Yu thought optimistically.
And then—
Gu Qian pressed closer.
Qi Yu’s scalp went numb.
A terrifying possibility surfaced in her mind.
…
By the second half of the night, Qi Yu had already given up resisting.
She kept her eyes closed to lessen the humiliation.
Fortunately, just before dawn, the drug finally wore off.
Exhausted, Gu Qian fell asleep on top of Qi Yu.
The Omega hormones belonging to Gu Qian gradually disappeared from Qi Yu’s body through her metabolism.
Qi Yu struggled to her feet, lifted the peacefully sleeping Gu Qian into her arms, and carried her back onto the bed.
Keeping her gaze carefully averted, she used a towel to give Gu Qian’s body a simple wipe-down.
After thinking about it…
She cleaned the floor too.
It was too horrible to look at.
Before leaving, Qi Yu paced beside the bed for a long time, conflicted.
In the end, she was worried Gu Qian might mistakenly believe she’d been picked up by a stranger the previous night.
So she left a note on the bedside table.
You were drugged last night, but I gave you a suppressant. Rest properly today.
—Qi Yu
After leaving the hotel, Qi Yu posted on Weibo.
Qi Yu:
When you give someone roses, the fragrance lingers on your hands!
Her fans: ??? Was her account hacked???
Lin Tong had just returned after filming a drama out of town.
Eager to share everything that had happened, she went straight to Qi Yu’s rented apartment.
She knocked for a long time.
Only after quite a while did slow, dragging footsteps finally sound from inside.
The door opened.
Lin Tong was startled by Qi Yu’s pale face and the large dark circles beneath her eyes.
“…Did you spend last night committing burglary?”
She looked Qi Yu up and down.
Physiologically speaking, an Alpha wasn’t actually so fragile.
The reason Qi Yu looked so utterly haggard was mostly because her mind had suffered an enormous shock, and she had yet to recover.
Qi Yu poured herself a glass of water at the counter and drank half of it in one breath.
Then she casually handed another glass to Lin Tong before returning to the sofa and staring gloomily at the television.
Holding the glass, Lin Tong followed her over and lightly kicked her leg.
“What are you doing?”
“What happened?”
“Why do you look so miserable?”
Qi Yu took a sip of water.
After a long silence, she sighed bleakly.
“My thighs and knees are no longer pure…”
“Pfft—”
Lin Tong choked on her own saliva.
She cursed at Qi Yu,
“Can you speak like a normal human being? Did you have a one-night stand?”
Qi Yu only shook her head.
“You wouldn’t understand.”
Lin Tong snorted.
She assumed Qi Yu had studied the script so intensely that she’d become trapped in character and hadn’t come back to reality yet.
So she ignored her.
At that moment, an entertainment news report happened to begin on television.
An enlarged candid photograph appeared on the screen.
Although the image quality was blurry and the woman in the photo wore a baseball cap, it wasn’t difficult to recognize the newly crowned Best Actress, Gu Qian, from her figure.
Beside Gu Qian walked another woman who was slightly taller.
She hadn’t concealed her appearance at all.
Qi Yu recognized her immediately.
It was Shi Yunwei.
So the person I saw outside the hotel last night really was Shi Yunwei?
Qi Yu rubbed her aching brow.
What an unbelievable coincidence.
In the photograph, Gu Qian and Shi Yunwei happened to be walking out of the same hotel where Qi Yu had stayed the previous night.
Shi Yunwei even appeared to be saying something to Gu Qian.
The two looked familiar with each other.
The scene changed.
Two or three paparazzi rushed forward at once, practically shoving their microphones into Gu Qian’s face as they loudly bombarded her with questions.
“Best Actress Gu, may we ask what your private relationship is with this Alpha woman?”
“Best Actress Gu, is this woman the person you’re currently dating?”
“Did the two of you spend last night together at the hotel?”
“Compared with male Alphas, does Best Actress Gu prefer female Alphas?”
Gu Qian’s delicate brows drew together.
Her expression turned icy.
She pushed the microphones away and replied indifferently,
“This woman is my partner in my next film.”
“We merely happened to run into each other at the hotel.”
“If any media outlet maliciously fabricates rumors about our relationship, I will take legal action.”
On television, the female presenter smiled ambiguously and spoke in a mysterious tone.
“According to our information, this Alpha woman is a student at Capital Film University.”
“We can’t help wondering whether the movie the two will soon be working on is Director Wang Du’s Alley.”
Lin Tong clicked her tongue twice.
“Usually, whenever people say they merely happened to run into each other, it’s definitely a lie.”
“In a place like the entertainment industry, how could there be such a coincidence?”
She raised her eyebrows at Qi Yu and gave her a knowing smile.
“Right, Yubao?”
Qi Yu turned off the television.
Then she stared solemnly at Lin Tong.
Lin Tong blinked.
“You… what’s wrong?”
With a completely serious expression, Qi Yu asked,
“What was that line from Cass Sunstein’s On Rumors that our elective professor made us memorize last semester?”
Lin Tong answered automatically,
“We are both transmitters and recipients of rumors. Journalists must possess the spirit of doubt and verification.”
Only then did Qi Yu nod in satisfaction.
Lin Tong: ???
