After I Woke Up to Find I Had a Wife - Chapter 28

The consultation records in Fu Xinran’s hands were confidential documents that even Lin You had not yet seen.

“Can I look at your treatment records?” Fu Xinran had tugged on Lin You’s ear while Lin You was still playing her jumping-up-and-down game, her voice light and airy. Lin You had happily agreed.

Fu Xinran had her send a message to Zhuo An with her phone. Zhuo An had asked repeatedly to confirm, but unfortunately, at that time, Lin You’s whole mind had been filled with beauty, and she did not hear Zhuo An’s hints at all. She directly told Zhuo An to give them to Fu Xinran.

Inside the yellow-brown file bag were the records of every treatment Lin You had undergone.

The first medical record stated:

Patient: Lin You. Age: 16. Overall psychological state: positive and sunny. No intervention needed.

Fu Xinran knew what sixteen-year-old Lin You had been like.

Her fair fingers pinched this document. Memories and time rapidly retreated from this simple record.

The temperature on an early spring evening was not high. When the night breeze blew, it even made people shrink their necks a little.

Fu Xinran walked alone along a sparsely populated street, where pedestrians hurried past.

Her pure white shirt and fitted dark-green school blazer made the young girl look neat and crisp, while also carrying the youthful air unique to students. On her small tie was a golden school emblem.

Such a Fu Xinran naturally attracted attention. Her long, slender legs, newly developed body, and young, tender face still carried a green, sweet innocence.

“Which school is this junior from? Let’s be friends.”

Two bad-boy-looking boys followed behind Fu Xinran. They did not get too close, and their words were not excessive, but the sudden attempt to strike up a conversation still made one feel afraid.

Fu Xinran’s breathing paused. They were all students who had not yet differentiated. She turned her head and looked at them coldly.

“I don’t make friends with people who aren’t in the top ten of their grade.”

The two boys clearly had not expected Fu Xinran to be so tough. Her aura was cold and sharp, and there was not the slightest fear in her eyes. She only looked at them indifferently before walking away.

“Oh my god, did she see through our true nature as terrible students?” the other boy with a crew cut rubbed his hair and asked his companion foolishly.

His companion rolled his eyes at him. Idiot, you only realized that now?

This was the first time the two had seen such a beautiful girl. Not wanting to miss the chance, they continued jogging after her, stopping when they were three or four meters away.

Fu Xinran gripped the strap of her schoolbag. Today, she had simply not wanted to go home so early, so she had deliberately taken a detour. This was the first time she had encountered this kind of situation, and she felt a little panicked.

At the next intersection, a bicycle suddenly glided out and moved alongside her, following her at an unhurried speed.

Fu Xinran turned her head in curiosity and gratitude, and saw Lin You wearing the same school uniform as her. With flying short hair and a lazy smile, the bicycle beneath her feet crawled along like a turtle.

Lin You raised a brow and waved at the junior schoolmate looking over. Seeing that someone was there, the two boys did not dare follow too closely.

Only when they reached a turn and the two boys saw that the upperclassman from the neighboring noble school riding the bicycle had turned together with the girl in front did they stop completely, no longer daring to continue.

The students at neighboring Yufan High School were either rich or noble. Originally, they had only wanted to strike up a conversation and ask for a phone number or scan her WeChat.

The two girls walked unhurriedly the whole way. When they entered a street with more people, Lin You quickly rode away, leaving Fu Xinran with only the back view of her dark-green school uniform.

Fu Xinran bit her lip. Looking at that figure amid the traffic, she eventually called her family driver and asked him to come pick her up.

After doing a good deed for the day, Lin You happily smiled and waved at the car owners waiting at the red light. Her smile was unrestrained, flamboyant, and extremely deserving of a beating. After the light turned green, many cars stepped on the gas and threw exhaust fumes at Lin You.

Lin You did not mind and rode through the exhaust toward the pedestrian path.

“Sister Lin, over here! Over here!” Zheng Er, with a head of yellow hair, held a cigarette in her hand and shouted at Lin You. At this time, Zheng Er’s aesthetic sense was moving. She was wholeheartedly trying to walk the punk path.

Thin and weak, Zheng Er had a yellow, Shamate-style hairstyle that burned Lin You’s eyes.

Lin You had not expected that her casual comment about “the uniquely stylish Shamate nobility” would actually make Zheng Er go get hair extensions in the middle of the night and produce such an eye-burning hairstyle.

Unfortunately, she could not advise her against it. She could only endure the pain in her eyes and go with Zheng Er to eat skewers at this little restaurant.

Fu Xinran sat in her family car. When she turned her head, she happened to see the person who had accompanied her all the way walk into an alley.

Fu Xinran withdrew her gaze and lowered her head to look at her schoolbag.

She thought it was only a chance encounter, but unexpectedly, two days later, at a basketball match, Lin You appeared on the court. Her figure was tall and slender, and she wore a loose red jersey.

Fu Xinran sat on the bench as a substitute player, ready to step in at any moment.

As the school’s chosen representative face, Fu Xinran sat at the referee’s table, but the corner of her eye kept unconsciously looking at that short-haired upperclassman.

“Hey, Xinran, who are you looking at?” Cao Rui raised her brows with a wicked smile.

“I’m watching the game,” Fu Xinran said lightly, withdrawing her gaze.

In the second half of the match, Lin You entered the court. Her long, powerful arms knocked past the person colliding with her. She made a fake move, turned handsomely, dribbled away, and with a bang, the ball slammed into the basket.

Countless people cheered on the court. This was an interschool league match, and everyone took it very seriously. Seeing someone from their school score, they were so happy they almost jumped.

The match continued. Sweat flew freely. Lin You leapt high, lifted her arm, and sent the ball into the hoop again.

The final score was 134 to 100.

Yufan High School won. The whole court cheered. Fu Xinran tightly gripped the bottle of mineral water in her hand, yet she hesitated and did not dare go forward. Lin You picked up a towel and wiped the sweat from her face.

She accepted the bottle of mineral water a classmate handed her, and everyone left in twos and threes. In the end, Fu Xinran still failed to give away the bottle of water in her hand.

Fu Xinran dragged her steps and walked at the very back, watching the group in red jerseys leave. After Cao Rui finished handing over the follow-up work, she saw only someone staring pitifully toward the front.

Cao Rui waved a hand in front of Fu Xinran. Fu Xinran rolled her eyes at her.

“Hahaha, Ranran, secretly tell your sister who you’ve taken a liking to. Big Sister will help you deliver a love letter.”

Cao Rui leaned close to Fu Xinran’s ear to pry information out of her. Fu Xinran ignored her and only handed the mineral water in her hand to her. Cao Rui accepted it happily.

“Little sister, you know what’s up. You knew your big sister was thirsty.”

Fu Xinran did not mention anything. She simply linked arms with her classmate and left.

In the days that followed, Fu Xinran would occasionally watch Lin You exercise on the basketball court. She was lively and bright, her physical fitness especially strong. Under Cao Rui’s gossiping, Fu Xinran learned that Lin You had already differentiated into a Beta.

She did not know why she felt a little disappointed. Her own genetic test showed a 90% probability that she would become an Omega.

Lin You was in her second year of high school, while she was in her third year of middle school. They were not that far apart, but Fu Xinran had skipped grades all the way up.

Her and Lin You’s life paths almost never intersected. When she saw Lin You again, Lin You no longer remembered when she had once helped a little girl.

Patient: Lin You. Age: 17. Attribute: Beta. Personality: positive, sunny, upward, energetic, likes chatting, broad knowledge base. Academic pressure somewhat high. Recommended sleep adjustment.

When Lin You was seventeen, she was in her final year of high school. Fu Xinran was in her first year of high school, fifteen years old, and about to differentiate. Every week, she would go to the school doctor to have her body checked.

“Classmate, classmate, are you all right?” Lin You, whose shirt was half-tucked into her pants, bent down and looked at the pale-faced younger schoolmate.

Fu Xinran had felt unwell since leaving home. It was like having a cold, sometimes hot and sometimes cold, and it felt as if a stick was stirring around in her head. Her vision went dark, and after several stumbles, she fell to the ground.

Lin You suddenly appeared under the sunlight. The worry on her face made Fu Xinran’s body sway, and she fell onto her. The fresh woody scent made Fu Xinran’s face redden before she fainted.

Lin You half-held the younger schoolmate in her arms, somewhat bewildered.

How did she just faint?

“Eh, Boss, why are you holding a female classmate?” The short Lu Sihao looked disapprovingly at his boss.

Lin You rolled her eyes at him. “Can’t you see this big sister is acting bravely for justice? Go. Tell Old Ban I’ll be late.”

“Oh, so that’s what it is? Then Boss, hurry to the infirmary. I’ll go back and tell Old Ban.” Lu Sihao scratched his hair embarrassedly, realizing he had judged her unfairly.

Lin You bent down and helped the younger schoolmate leaning in her arms upright, then turned around and carried her on her back. The girl’s thin body, pale face, and cold sweat sliding down her hair soon soaked Lin You’s white shirt.

Lin You had not even had time to carefully look at the grade and name on the younger schoolmate’s nameplate. She could only stride toward the infirmary. It was still early, and she did not know if that group of salary-taking freeloaders in the infirmary had started work yet.

The infirmary door was half-closed. Lin You kicked it open. “Doctor He, Ms. He, are you skipping work again?”

Lin You called for a long time, but no one answered. She could only walk to the sickbed covered in white sheets and carefully put the person down. The unconscious Fu Xinran’s body was soft, and she directly tilted sideways on the sickbed.

Lin You was quick-eyed and quick-handed, supporting her and arranging her properly. Just as she picked up the blanket to cover her, hiss—a slap suddenly flew onto her head.

Lin You’s face darkened. Before she could speak, the culprit who had hit her lazily pushed her aside and glanced at her sideways. “What are you doing? You’re not even an adult yet. What are you trying to do?”

Lin You rubbed the top of her head and really wanted to beat this insensible Omega up.

You think just because I’m female, I won’t hit a woman? Lin You glared at her fiercely. “This younger schoolmate fainted halfway down the road. Help check on her.”

“Go, go. You’re covered in pheromones. Don’t tell me you carried her here just like this.” Doctor He pushed her away and casually picked up the pheromone-eliminating spray, spraying it at Lin You.

The pungent air-freshener smell made Lin You sneeze nonstop.

“If I didn’t carry her here, where was I supposed to carry her? I’m a Beta. Give me a blocking patch. Did she differentiate?” Lin You rubbed her nose and looked from afar at the little girl she had carried in.

“Yes. This little one must have forgotten the medicine I gave her. Her differentiation came a few days early. She should have stayed home, but who knows why she came to school again. Her parents really let you children mess around.”

Once Doctor He entered doctor mode, she became extremely irritable whenever she encountered students who did not follow medical instructions. Seeing that there was nothing else for her to do, Lin You took advantage of Doctor He not paying attention to her and quietly left.

When she reached the door, she smelled a clear, icy fragrance. It smelled very nice. Lin You’s brows and eyes curved as she glanced at the person lying behind the curtain.

She did not care about the part of her shoulder soaked by sweat. Facing the rising morning sun, she walked toward her classroom.
