After Differentiation, I Marked My Arch-nemesis - Chapter 55
After the second period at Jiangcheng No. 1 High School, there was a school-wide large break.
Since entering November,
The large break activity had been changed from group calisthenics to running. Before, Jiang Youli would participate in the group calisthenics, but now that it was running, she had never been to the track, because she really didn’t like to run.
So today,
During the large break, Jiang Youli and Chen Huaian, as usual, didn’t go to the track to run. The students of Class 1 of Grade 1 were already used to getting points deducted for running.
The school’s broadcast was playing running music.
The entire academic building was quiet.
At this time, there were only Jiang Youli and Chen Huaian in Class 1 of Grade 1.
Both were on their phones.
The reason Jiang Youli was staying in the classroom was to wait for the Omega who sent her the anonymous red love letter to come and find her. Otherwise, to avoid Lu Yaoyi, she would have left the classroom as soon as class was over. Now, she just had to wait to deal with the Omega who sent the letter.
However…
The fact that that Omega dared to send her a love letter was truly courageous.
What a shame, she had misplaced her genuine feelings.
She planned to advise the person to get back on the right track and not waste their time on her.
She didn’t know how much time had passed.
The school broadcast stopped playing music, and a deafening sound of footsteps suddenly came from the hallway outside the classroom. It sounded like someone was running wildly in the hallway.
Jiang Youli heard the commotion and subconsciously looked back.
She saw a girl suddenly appear at the back door of the classroom, gasping for breath.
It was Lin Jinyue.
Lin Jinyue was holding onto the door with one hand, panting heavily.
“Jiang… Jiang Youli…”
Chen Huaian heard Lin Jinyue’s voice and looked back. Lin Jinyue looked like she had over-exercised and might suffocate and die at any moment, so he didn’t blame Lin Jinyue for being so late. “Lin Jinyue, you’re finally here. Boss and I have been waiting for a long time.”
Jiang Youli looked at Lin Jinyue and didn’t say anything.
Lin Jinyue ignored Chen Huaian and said directly to Jiang Youli,
“Jiang Youli… my… my friend is waiting for you at the bathroom…”
Hearing this, Jiang Youli got up without a word and walked to Lin Jinyue.
“Is she at the bathroom right now?”
Lin Jinyue nodded. “Mhm…”
Jiang Youli walked out of the classroom and looked toward the bathroom at the end of the hallway. She saw a long-haired Omega standing at the end of the hallway. From a distance, the Omega was graceful and gentle, giving her a very soft and pure feeling.
She was like a fairy.
After a few seconds, she began to walk toward the Omega at the end of the hallway.
Chen Huaian followed Jiang Youli out of the classroom.
He turned his head to look in the direction Jiang Youli was walking and also saw the Omega at the end of the hallway. He then asked Lin Jinyue, “Lin Jinyue, how long has class been over?”
“Why are you and your friend only now coming to find my boss?”
Lin Jinyue: “…”
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “We rushed back as soon as we finished running. We don’t dare to skip running like you and Jiang Youli.”
Chen Huaian agreed with Lin Jinyue. “You’ve got a point.”
Lin Jinyue didn’t say anything.
Chen Huaian: “Hey, how long has your friend liked my boss?”
Lin Jinyue: “She’s liked Jiang Youli for over a month.”
Chen Huaian: “Over a month isn’t very long.”
Lin Jinyue: “It’s not long, but she really likes Jiang Youli.”
Chen Huaian: “How did she come to like my boss?”
“Didn’t you ask me this question this morning?” Lin Jinyue said, looking at Jiang Youli’s back as she walked further away. “It’s because Jiang Youli helped her before.”
Jiang Youli walked closer and finally saw the Omega’s face clearly.
The Omega was indeed very beautiful.
Although she wasn’t a very bright and bold beauty, she was pure and clean, which made people’s fondness for her increase subconsciously. She gave people a very comfortable feeling.
Jiang Youli walked up to the Omega and looked down at her. The Omega was too shy to look at her.
She then said faintly, “You were looking for me?”
The Omega’s face flushed as she smelled Jiang Youli’s scent. She was so shy that she didn’t dare to look up at Jiang Youli. She just held on to the corner of her shirt and nodded.
“Mhm…”
Jiang Youli: “You’re the Omega who sent me the anonymous red love letters?”
The Omega nodded gently again. “Mhm…”
Jiang Youli didn’t plan to waste her time with the Omega in front of her. When it came to matters of the heart, she was always decisive and never dragged things out. So she went straight to the point and said to the Omega, “Don’t send me love letters in the future, and don’t waste your time and feelings on me. I have no intention of dating or accepting anyone.”
Every word she said gave the Omega no hope.
“So please don’t like me anymore.”
Although her words were heartbreaking, her tone and attitude were gentle.
The Omega bit her lip and didn’t respond for a long time. She had been mentally prepared for this outcome, but it was still hard to be rejected without even confessing.
Just then, students who had just come out of the bathroom started passing by.
The entire academic building quickly became lively and noisy.
Jiang Youli was losing her patience. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”
With that, she turned around and left before the Omega could say anything.
“Wait…”
The Omega finally mustered up the courage to look up at Jiang Youli.
“Wait a moment…”
Jiang Youli stopped and turned around. “Is there anything else?”
The Omega’s heart raced as she looked at Jiang Youli. Her face was red with nervousness, and she was gripping her sleeve tightly. She then said softly, “Jiang Youli… thank you…”
Jiang Youli didn’t quite understand. “Thank me for what?”
“Before, I was being bullied by some seniors… you helped me… you also said to come find you if they bullied me again…” The Omega said and then looked down shyly. “Do you… do you remember me… near the lab building…”
Near the lab building…
Hearing this, Jiang Youli suddenly remembered something like that happening.
She had a particularly deep impression of that day because she had just done a pheromone test and found out that her and Lu Yaoyi’s pheromone compatibility was 99%, a perfect match.
She had indeed helped a fellow Omega near the lab building that day.
So that was it.
This Omega in front of her was the one who had been surrounded, insulted, and bullied by a few senior students at the lab building that day. So the question of why she only received love letters on Fridays was now solved. She suddenly realized something and asked the Omega in front of her.
“So you liked me because I helped you?”
The Omega nodded, then shook her head.
“No…”
Jiang Youli raised an eyebrow. “No?”
“It’s not just because you helped me that day…” The Omega answered shyly in a soft voice. “I just think you’re very, very good… so I like you…”
Jiang Youli felt that the Omega in front of her only liked her because she had received her help. So she said solemnly, “You only like me because you’re grateful for my help. It was just a small gesture. I’ve helped other people at school too. You really don’t have to like me because of this.”
“But…” the Omega said, “I just like you…”
Jiang Youli was indifferent and cold toward people she didn’t like. She looked at the Omega with a blank expression and said, “Then let me tell you clearly that I won’t like you or accept you. You really shouldn’t waste your time on me. It’s not worth it.”
The Omega pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
She had never fantasized about being with Jiang Youli.
She just… couldn’t control her feelings.
She had been quietly following Jiang Youli before, but after Jiang Youli helped her that day, her feelings for Jiang Youli became uncontrollable.
She knew she couldn’t be with an Alpha like Jiang Youli.
But before she gave up,
She wanted to fulfill her last wish. She mustered up her courage to look at the Alpha she truly liked and said, “Jiang Youli… I’ll listen to you and give up on you…”
Jiang Youli was very satisfied with this answer. “Mhm.”
The Omega said, “Then… can I hug you…”
Before Jiang Youli could refuse, the Omega had already rushed into her arms without permission and even tiptoed to kiss her.
“…”
This Omega dared to hug her without her permission?
And even kissed her?
Just as she was about to get angry, the Omega had already run away.
“…”
Several students who came out of the bathroom saw the scene.
Jiang Youli: “…”
But even if they saw it, it didn’t matter. No one dared to gossip about her.
She looked at the Omega’s retreating back in anger.
She had been taken advantage of by an Omega whose name she didn’t even know?
This was absolutely ridiculous.
After this unexpected offense from the Omega today, she would never meet any other Omega who liked her again. In the end, she decided to just let it go and not waste her time on it.
She unhappily wiped her face and turned to go back to the classroom.
However, the moment she turned around,
Jiang Youli saw Lu Yaoyi standing at the classroom door, looking at her.
The two of them were looking at each other from across the long hallway.
The next second,
Lu Yaoyi turned around and walked into the classroom.
Jiang Youli hadn’t been able to see what Lu Yaoyi’s expression was just now. She suspected that Lu Yaoyi had seen the Omega hug and kiss her. A strange and unfamiliar feeling instantly rose in her heart, but she didn’t care about it.
She went back to the classroom, grabbed her jacket, and went out to hang out with Chen Huaian.
Lu Yaoyi kept an eye on Jiang Youli out of the corner of her eye until Jiang Youli left the classroom. She then turned her head to look. Ever since Jiang Youli had differentiated into an S-class Alpha, she had always been confident that she and Jiang Youli were a perfect match.
Because she and Jiang Youli’s pheromone compatibility was a 99% perfect match.
But the scene she had just witnessed shattered her confidence.
Jiang Youli was so intimate with someone else…
And Jiang Youli had been deliberately avoiding her recently.
She felt an unprecedented sense of crisis and couldn’t help but wonder if Jiang Youli wanted to date another Omega, which was why she was avoiding her and keeping her distance.
No, Jiang Youli was her Alpha.
The fear of losing Jiang Youli suddenly rose in her heart and gradually consumed her rationality.
She didn’t want to wait any longer.
Since it was Friday, school got out earlier. Lu Yaoyi didn’t go straight home. Instead, she went to a nearby pharmacy. After buying what she wanted, she went home.
Jiang Youli still made up an excuse not to come home for dinner that night.
Li Henian was initially suspicious and questioned Jiang Youli, but then Jiang Youli video-called Li Henian. Li Henian saw that there were many friends around Jiang Youli, so he was relieved. He then told Jiang Youli several times to come home early before hanging up.
That night,
It was already past 11 p.m. when Jiang Youli returned home.
She had been hanging out outside every night recently, and now she was tired of it and didn’t want to continue. So she came home a little earlier tonight.
She went back to her room, took off her jacket, and was about to go to the bathroom to shower.
“Knock, knock, knock—”
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Youli’s heart trembled.
Then, Lu Yaoyi’s weak voice came from outside the door. “Jiang Youli…”
Jiang Youli heard the voice and looked at the door, thinking that Lu Yaoyi should have been asleep by now. Why was she knocking on her door so late?
She stood there, staring at the door. “Is something wrong?”
Lu Yaoyi didn’t answer and just kept knocking.
Jiang Youli had no choice but to walk over and open the door. “What’s wrong so late…”
Before she could finish her sentence,
The moment the door opened, the scent of hyacinths rushed toward her.
The Omega’s pheromones were surging like a storm.
Jiang Youli was instantly surrounded by the sweet and rich scent of hyacinths.
Before she could react,
The girl standing at the door had already rushed forward, tiptoed, and hugged her by the neck.
At the same time, the girl’s panting came from next to her ear.
“Jiang Youli… I feel so bad… help me…”
