After Ditching Four Powerful Alphas, I Differentiated into an Omega - Chapter 31
“Sister Lu is too domineering!” Qiao Yu secretly told the system.
“But.”
She thought about it calmly.
“I love it!”
She couldn’t wait to reach for the first button on her shirt.
Lu Shangyi’s dark eyes stared at her actions and fell silent.
Seeing that Qiao Yu had already nimbly unbuttoned one, Lu Shangyi’s composed expression changed slightly.
A low voice came out with a hint of confusion.
“What are you doing?”
Qiao Yu stopped.
Her clear black and white eyes also looked at Lu Shangyi blankly.
“Didn’t Sister tell me to take off my clothes?”
The expression on Lu Shangyi’s face instantly became difficult to describe.
She put the newspaper back on the coffee table.
Lu Shangyi’s eyes were fixed on her, and her tone was a little helpless.
“I told you to take off the stockings.”
After realizing that she had misunderstood the other person’s meaning, Qiao Yu smiled awkwardly.
Her skin immediately turned a little pink.
“Oh.”
She let out a small “oh,” and she was quite disappointed.
“Does it not look good?”
She looked down at herself.
Even Auntie Ye almost couldn’t hold back, so why didn’t it work on Lu Shangyi?
Is it because she’s an Omega?
Qiao Yu thought about it and suddenly realized.
She then shook her head regretfully.
“It seems like you Omegas have a very weak desire in that area.”
“In what area?”
Her features were calm and composed, but Qiao Yu was sensitive to the dangerous aura in Lu Shangyi’s words.
She reflexively shook her head.
Qiao Yu subtly took two steps to the side and refused to admit it.
“Nothing.”
She mumbled while taking off her clothes.
“These stockings are thousands of dollars. It would be so satisfying to tear them off at night.”
She suddenly felt that her statement wasn’t very accurate.
Qiao Yu paused, then changed her words.
“Actually, it’s also pretty satisfying to tear them off during the day.”
She secretly looked at Lu Shangyi.
Lu Shangyi was staring at her without blinking.
The slight smile on her face made her look even more terrifying than when she was calm.
Lu Shangyi let out a low laugh.
Her tone suddenly became sexy.
“You like it a lot?”
Qiao Yu originally wanted to nod, but the atmosphere didn’t seem to be very good right now.
She immediately denied it guiltily.
“How could I?!”
She couldn’t avoid it fast enough.
“How could I possibly like this kind of thing?! Who would like things that are meant for dirty old men?”
Qiao Yu said with a sense of righteousness.
“Impossible. I absolutely can’t like it.”
As she said that, she threw the stockings to the side, completely abandoning them.
Right after she threw the stockings, the phone Qiao Yu had put aside rang.
She stretched her neck to look.
There was no caller ID.
She picked it up and hung up.
Qiao Yu explained to Lu Shangyi, “It must be an insurance salesman.”
Before she could finish, the other person called again, relentlessly.
Just as Qiao Yu was about to reject the call for the second time, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of someone.
She immediately hid the phone behind her back.
Qiao Yu smiled faintly at Lu Shangyi.
“Sister, I’m going out to take a call.”
Seeing that Lu Shangyi nodded, Qiao Yu immediately ran out of the house.
“Brother, it’s only nine in the morning and you’re already calling me. What if I was still sleeping?”
Lu Shenghui’s face instantly darkened.
He sneered.
“What about the thing I told you to do?”
I knew it.
With a phone between them, Qiao Yu naturally wasn’t afraid of him.
“What are you in a hurry for? I’ve been very busy these past few days. I’m rushing my homework and doing test papers every day. How do I have so much time to go see Sister Lu?”
Qiao Yu said to him earnestly, “Brother, as an adult, you should also be considerate of a high school graduate like me, right?”
If Lu Shenghui were to be considerate, the sun would rise from the west today.
He let out a cold laugh.
His sinister voice made people shiver even through the phone.
“Cut the crap.”
Qiao Yu’s heart fluttered.
She had no choice but to be honest.
“She hasn’t done anything these past few days.”
“She hasn’t done anything?”
Lu Shenghui obviously didn’t believe her.
Some people in the company had been getting more and more restless lately.
If they hadn’t found a new backer, why would they go against him time and time again?
Other than his good sister, he really didn’t know who else could make these people follow them so devotedly.
Lu Shenghui narrowed his eyes.
“You’d better not be lying to me.”
“I have no reason to lie to you.”
Qiao Yu felt incredibly wronged.
“If you don’t believe me, you can come and see for yourself.”
“All Sister Lu does all day is read the newspaper and look at black silk…”
Qiao Yu paused, then quickly corrected herself.
“Look at black bears walking on tightropes. She’s as docile as can be. And in the past few days, I haven’t even seen her go out to take out the trash.”
Knowing what Lu Shenghui was worried about, she added, “Of course, no one has come to visit her either. She’s just a lonely, caged canary with no friends.”
Lu Shenghui didn’t argue and just ended the call.
Qiao Yu guessed that even though he had told her to keep an eye on Lu Shangyi, he must have also sent other people to do the same thing.
After all, a suspicious person like Lu Shenghui would never trust her one hundred percent.
Qiao Yu walked back into the room, wanting to remind Lu Shangyi, but she couldn’t think of a good reason.
After sitting for a moment, Qiao Yu’s eyes lit up.
She said, “Sister Lu, can you not let me know when you meet other people in the future?”
She said it very seriously.
“Especially at night.”
When Lu Shangyi heard that, she didn’t even lift her eyelids.
“Okay.”
Qiao Yu had prepared a lot of things to say, but when she agreed so readily, Qiao Yu didn’t know what to say.
The person across from her didn’t move for a long time.
Lu Shangyi turned a page of the newspaper and finally looked up.
“Anything else?”
Qiao Yu said, “Huh?”
She hesitated for a long time before she spoke.
“Why?”
Isn’t she going to ask why?
Isn’t she worried at all that I have bad intentions and want to harm her?
The woman’s expression didn’t change.
“You don’t like it, do you?”
These few simple words stirred up ripples in Qiao Yu’s heart.
Her small face was red as she clutched her chest.
Her clear black and white eyes were sparkling as she looked at Lu Shangyi.
Her gaze fell on the other person’s deep face.
The curve of Qiao Yu’s lips visibly turned up by two degrees.
It would be a pity not to marry a woman like this.
Although Lu Shenghui had told Qiao Yu to keep a close eye on Lu Shangyi, Qiao Yu’s test scores dropped by one rank last time.
In addition to Mrs. Qiao’s silent interrogation, the occasional psychological counseling from her homeroom teacher also made her feel tormented.
Since Meng E’s father was discharged from the hospital on Friday and she no longer had to take care of him at home, Qiao Yu asked her family’s driver to pick up Meng E and Jiang Mei to come to her house to study together.
After studying for an afternoon, someone brought up college applications during a break.
Qiao Yu turned to Jiang Mei with interest.
“Which school do you want to apply for?”
“Any is fine.”
Jiang Mei looked at her.
Her red lips were pursed for a while.
Then she said, “But I want to apply for a medical major.”
Meng E’s eyes widened in surprise.
Her tone was a little excited.
“What a coincidence, me too!”
She said softly, “My dad has been sick for many years, and my mom’s health isn’t good either. I think that if I become a doctor in the future, they won’t have to be tormented by pain day after day.”
She said it casually.
After explaining her reason, she asked Jiang Mei, “What about you? Why do you want to study medicine?”
Jiang Mei was eerily silent for a while.
In the end, she gave a seemingly very reasonable reason.
“To make money.”
Qiao Yu was a little surprised.
She remembered that the female lead in the original text applied for a Chinese major and became a popular, gentle, and elegant Chinese teacher at a private school in the capital after graduation.
The plot now seemed to be getting more and more different from what she had read.
She didn’t speak for a long time, so Meng E asked her, “What about you, Yu Yu?”
“Me?”
Qiao Yu pointed at herself.
She had never thought about this question.
After all, she had always thought that she could leave once she completed her mission, so she never thought about starting a new life in this world.
She thought for a moment.
“Most likely finance.”
After all, she still has to go home to inherit the company and earn money to marry her wife.
Speaking of earning money to marry her wife, Qiao Yu remembered that Tang Shu was also there when she called Meng E last time.
“E-E, what’s going on between you and Tang Shu?”
Qiao Yu knew that they were elementary school classmates, but she had never seen them have much contact.
So why were they suddenly so close?
Meng E’s expression changed slightly.
Qiao Yu tentatively said, “Is she bothering you?”
Qiao Yu slapped the table with righteous indignation.
“That cheater!
She has a partner but she’s still flirting with others!
I’ll pay someone to teach her a lesson for you right now!”
Meng E quickly stopped her.
“No need, Yu Yu.”
After she said that, she immediately noticed Qiao Yu’s “I knew it” expression.
Meng E pursed her lips in a fluster and said calmly, “She’s not bothering me. She just wants to find out some things about you from me every time.”
“You know, she’s a person who cares a lot about her pride and is very arrogant. She never lowers her head to you.”
Meng E’s eyes unnaturally looked elsewhere.
“But she’s really curious, so she can only come to me.”
The more Qiao Yu listened, the more something felt wrong.
She looked at Jiang Mei.
Jiang Mei gave her a certain look in return.
Qiao Yu instantly had a headache.
Not only did Tang Shu have a partner, but the fact that both of them were Omegas was enough to put an end to this relationship.
Meng E didn’t want Qiao Yu to worry about her, so she asked about Qiao Yu instead.
“By the way, Yu Yu, didn’t you say that Auntie Ye and the others have moved here? Has anything happened these past two days?”
The corner of her eye twitched uncontrollably.
The problems were huge.
Unwilling to recall what happened that day, Qiao Yu replied perfunctorily, “It’s fine.
Nothing major.”
Her eyelashes, like crow feathers, fell down in unison.
Jiang Mei silently stared at the test questions in front of her.
All of Qiao Yu’s suitors are so powerful, but I’m useless and can’t give her anything.
Jiang Mei pursed her lips.
She remembered the more than five million dollars in her bank account.
With a determination to burn her bridges, Jiang Mei invested a large portion of her money.
Qiao Yu was at the age of differentiation.
When she became an adult, people who wanted to marry her would be knocking down the door of the Qiao family.
If she didn’t seize the time to work hard and make money, she might not even be worthy of holding her skirt, let alone standing beside her in a dignified manner.
Jiang Mei put away her test papers.
“Yu Yu, I have to go back to school now.”
Qiao Yu was surprised.
“So soon? Why don’t you leave after dinner?”
Jiang Mei shook her head and refused.
Her attitude was very firm.
“No need.”
She pursed her lips and smiled.
“I still have some things to deal with.”
Her expression was calm, but her eyes vaguely showed a hint of urgency.
Even when Qiao Yu offered to accompany her, she was rejected.
Qiao Yu had no choice but to ask the driver to take her back.
“Be careful on the way.”
Meng E held a bag of potato chips and ate a few.
She talked about Jiang Mei’s recent whereabouts.
“Ever since she received that package, she’s been all mysterious, messing around with who knows what all day.”
Meng E recalled as she spoke.
“Before, she was a person who wanted to be glued to you, but now she’s leaving early and even refused your company.”
She guessed, “She must be hiding some little secrets.”
Qiao Yu could indeed feel Jiang Mei’s neglect and coldness these past few days, but she could also understand.
“She might be investigating her aunt’s matter.”
Meng E was surprised.
“She has an aunt?”
Realizing that she had accidentally let something slip, Qiao Yu laughed and explained with a sense of reason.
“Her father’s sister is her aunt, isn’t she? If her grandparents had found out about her identity, they would have probably already taken her back to recognize her family.”
After all, a top-tier Alpha gene like Jiang Mei’s was one in a million.
There was no reason for the older generation to let such a good descendant wander outside.
Even if, in a strict sense, she could only be considered an illegitimate child.
The female lead, who grew up without love, would naturally yearn for family love after suddenly finding out that she had other relatives in this world.
If it were her, whether it was due to the closeness of blood relations or the more than five million dollars that the other person sent with good intentions, Qiao Yu wouldn’t be able to remain calm.
She would definitely search the entire city to find out the other person’s identity and then shamelessly hug that thick thigh.
Meng E was convinced and nodded.
She felt happy for Jiang Mei.
“If she can find her other relatives in the world, she won’t have to be bullied by her aunt and cousin anymore.”
But Qiao Yu felt that things weren’t that simple.
What was the concept of the “beautiful, strong, and miserable” female lead?
It meant that she would be as miserable as can be.
Thinking about this, Qiao Yu started to worry.
What if Jiang Mei’s biological aunt, who is a powerful figure in the capital, treats her badly in the future?
What if her biological aunt is deliberately using money to move her and lure her to find her, but actually has another purpose?
Qiao Yu frowned.
“System.”
The system quickly came out.
“Host, I can’t reveal the secrets of the heavens.”
“…”
Qiao Yu had no choice but to discuss which powerful person in the capital looked like Jiang Mei with Meng E.
However, the capital was full of powerful people, and they couldn’t find any useful clues even after discussing it until dark.
After sending Meng E away, Auntie Zhang came over and said, “Yu Yu, your mother is busy preparing for your eighteenth birthday party.”
Eighteen?
Qiao Yu was in a daze for a moment.
Then she asked with interest, “How are the preparations going?”
“They’ve already decided to hold the banquet at your family’s hotel, and the dishes have been chosen.”
As she spoke, she somehow brought up the topic of grades.
“I saw your school’s schedule.
Your school’s proficiency test is about one or two weeks before your birthday.”
She had hinted very obviously.
Qiao Yu made an “OK” gesture.
“I know.
I’ll go review now.”
“And.”
Auntie Zhang called out to her.
Qiao Yu turned around.
Auntie Zhang smiled and said, “Your mother said that a lot of her friends will be there.
So if you like anyone, just tell her, and it’s not impossible for us to get the marriage settled on the spot.”
Qiao Yu was very shocked.
“???”
Do my parents think I’m not going to live past twenty?!
Perhaps it was psychological, but Qiao Yu felt very unwell that night.
It was as if all the cells in her body were being torn apart and then renewed into something completely new.
Qiao Yu woke up in a daze in the middle of the night.
She felt her forehead.
She had a slight fever.
She uncomfortably changed her position.
She vaguely thought, Differentiation is really a torture.
If I don’t differentiate into a terrifyingly powerful Alpha in the end, I’m going to cause a scene.
Because she didn’t get up on time the next day, Auntie Zhang found her unconscious with a low fever.
Soon, the sound of high heels echoed in the room.
Qiao Yu felt a warm hand on her forehead.
She struggled to open her eyes, but she didn’t have the strength.
After struggling pointlessly, it still didn’t work.
Under the other person’s gentle caress, she unconsciously fell asleep again.
Mrs. Qiao’s gaze fell on her daughter’s pale, bloodless face.
She was worried and couldn’t say a word.
Qiao Jinghuai comforted her.
“Wife, don’t worry.
Yu Yu just has a small fever.
It’s nothing.”
Although he said that, he was also a little puzzled.
He had never seen his wife care about Qiao Yu so much before.
Thinking of Mrs. Qiao’s recent actions, Qiao Jinghuai also became nervous.
“This…”
He hesitated for a long time.
“Yu Yu doesn’t really have a problem, does she?”
Unfortunately, all he got was an unhappy look from the woman.
“What problem could Yu Yu have?”
After telling Auntie Zhang what to do, Mrs. Qiao pulled Qiao Jinghuai away.
In the car
, she asked about a person.
“What do you think of Bai Yiyu?”
“Bai Yiyu?”
Qiao Jinghuai’s face was a little hesitant.
“Isn’t she your classmate?”
Mrs. Qiao narrowed her eyes.
Her thoughts drifted far away.
“But her maternal grandfather, grandfather, and father all hold important positions in the military.”
If Qiao Yu marries into the Bai family, all the socialites in the capital will have to respect her.
“But.”
Qiao Jinghuai couldn’t help but say, “She’s a year older than you.”
Mrs. Qiao turned her head.
The expression on her face was very calm.
“You’re also several years older than me.”
Qiao Jinghuai was speechless.
But is a few years the same as a few decades?
What kind of system would that be if she died before the two of them?!
Perhaps Mrs. Qiao also felt that it was a little unrealistic, so she temporarily put this thought aside and didn’t talk about it anymore.
When Qiao Yu woke up, she felt much better, but she still had a slight cough and felt a little groggy.
Qiao Yu suspected that something went wrong when her consciousness merged with this body, but logically, if there was a problem, it would have acted up a long time ago.
It wouldn’t have waited until now.
She took a bottle of nutrient solution in her hand.
She used to be annoyed by this, but now, she felt a sense of peace only when she was holding it.
The outside of the house was quiet.
Occasionally, the leaves of the plane trees on the side of the road would spin and fall to the ground, then be gently swept up by the wind and wander around on the road.
Qiao Yu held the nutrient solution and stood at the door.
“System, do you think I’ll differentiate on my birthday?”
She thought about it carefully.
If she differentiated on her birthday, it would be fine.
All the women in the capital would witness the rise of a peerless Alpha, and she could take the opportunity to make a name for herself.
Qiao Yu fantasized about Ye Yunjian and Song Wanying looking at her with fear.
She almost grinned from ear to ear.
After she differentiates into an Alpha, Sister Song and Auntie Ye won’t be able to bully her so easily anymore.
The system wasn’t very sure either.
“Probably.”
“Probably?”
Qiao Yu narrowed her eyes dangerously, once again realizing how unreliable this rookie system was.
The system was flustered by her gaze and quickly explained, “But differentiating early or late doesn’t have any effect on you, Host.”
“After all, you, Host, are destined to be the most courageous woman in the entire capital.”
Qiao Yu liked hearing that.
She sat down on the warm carpet with her knees bent.
Qiao Yu put her test papers to the side, but before she could start, Auntie Zhang came in with a thick stack of documents.
“Yu Yu, these are the blind date materials that your mother prepared for you.”
She placed the mountain-like pile of documents neatly in front of Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu blinked.
She felt that she must be hallucinating.
She closed her eyes.
She opened her eyes and blinked again.
She blinked again, but the things in front of her were still firmly in place.
Qiao Yu started to panic.
“System, am I really sick with a terminal illness?! Oh my god! I’m just a little girl under eighteen!”
She became anxious like a character from a TV show, and a chill went down her spine.
After the system guaranteed her over and over again, Qiao Yu finally calmed down a little and fell into deep thought as she stared at the huge pile of blind date materials.
After Auntie Zhang left, Qiao Yu hesitated for a long time and couldn’t help but pick up the top one.
She opened the first page, and in large black letters, it clearly said: Alpha Rich Woman Section.
“…”
Qiao Yu picked up the second one.
This time, the title was even more shocking: Alpha Military and Political Section.
She roughly flipped through them.
In addition to organizing the family backgrounds by category, each person’s introduction was also accompanied by a full page of life photos.
Each one looked more imposing and more cold and dignified than the last.
After looking at the categories, Qiao Yu couldn’t help but have a face full of question marks.
Did Mom misunderstand her dating standards?
Besides Lu Shangyi, there wasn’t even one Omega among all these people!
Even though she also likes Alphas, she should at least let her see what other Omegas look like, right?
Qiao Yu rummaged through the pile of documents.
She was so focused that she didn’t notice a person quietly appearing at the door.
Ye Yunjian’s tall figure stopped in front of Qiao Yu.
She had good eyesight, and since Qiao Yu wasn’t deliberately hiding anything, she could see the contents on the white paper clearly.
She slightly raised her eyebrows.
She knelt down with a cold voice.
Her deep eyes were fixed on Qiao Yu, who was instantly flustered when she saw her.
“What? Are you already preparing for blind dates?”
“Is Lu Shangyi not enough for you, or is Song Wanying not enough for you?”
She narrowed her eyes dangerously.
“Or am I not enough for you?”
Her gaze slightly sank in displeasure.
Ye Yunjian casually picked up a document and flipped through two pages.
“Hmph.”
She threw the document aside in disgust.
“These people aren’t even worthy of pouring tea for me.”
The meaning in her eyes was very obvious as she looked at Qiao Yu:
You’d even settle for these people?
