After Mistakenly Marking a Sickly, Yandere Beautiful Omega, I Was Forced Into a Flash Marriage - Chapter 22.2
But even as Luo Yan said this, she knew the current situation was not optimistic. For a super-traffic icon like Xue Wu with tens of millions of followers, even if she doesn’t appear every day, disappearing from the public eye for long will trigger suspicion. It would be a problem then. Not to mention her many rivals watching like hawks; over time… it might cause an even greater storm.
So, big villain, you’d better wake up soon.
After the doctor left, Luo Yan stayed alone in the ward for a short while. This was the first time in days she had been this close to her. Her heart was still pounding. Though she knew it was wrong, her mind uncontrollably replayed that brief temporary mark.
She couldn’t help touching her own lips; the sensation of the soft gland seemed to linger, making her feel an inexplicable attachment. Luo Yan had never had such a sensation or feeling before; she felt that… doing it a few more times would truly be addictive.
And after this, she felt that in the short term, she might truly be unable to leave Xue Wu, or rather, unable to ignore her, and must take responsibility for her. She hoped the big villain… would give her such a chance.
“Big villain, wake up quickly. Many people outside want to see you fail; I absolutely cannot let them have their way.” Luo Yan spoke to her before leaving, not noticing that her finger moved slightly before returning to silence.
Until the evening, Luo Yan was still worried about Xue Wu. After all, such an event happened today, and she realized that if Xue Wu didn’t wake up soon, more accidents might occur, and she might not even be able to suppress them then.
The night passed peacefully. Luo Yan hadn’t rested well during this time. Her hair had grown long but she hadn’t cut it; her bangs covered her eyes, which felt quite uncomfortable, so she thought about getting a haircut outside today before coming back.
However, she had class this morning, so she would have to go after finishing her class.
Before leaving, she habitually spoke a few words to Xue Wu: “Miss Xue, I have classes all day today, so I can only come to see you in the evening. Be good in the hospital and wake up early.”
After speaking, she gave her one last lingering look before leaving.
Luo Yan didn’t know that after she left, another major event occurred at the hospital.
And this time, Xue Wu finally woke up.
Luo Yan hadn’t lied to Xue Wu; she was busy until the evening before she had time to come over. Not long after seeing Xue Wu and checking the situation, an emergency call came from the company asking her to return. She could only give instructions to Chen Jia before leaving first.
Chen Jia increasingly felt that Luo Yan’s temperament and way of handling things had undergone a huge change, completely different from when they first met.
“What has Miss Luo been busy with lately?” She couldn’t resist asking a question.
“Company matters. A client came to see me, so I have to go there first,” Luo Yan said, seemingly in a great hurry.
“Alright. If there’s anything I can’t resolve here, I’ll call you over first.” Chen Jia stopped asking, knowing she must be busy, and let her go.
However, not long after Luo Yan left, Chen Jia called her. Her tone was full of excitement: “Miss Luo, the boss is awake! Our boss is awake!”
She didn’t ask Luo Yan to return; after all, she couldn’t currently figure out the relationship between Luo Yan and Xue Wu. Randomly asking Luo Yan to return wouldn’t be good, for fear of annoying her.
Furthermore, she indeed had urgent business just now. If she was asked to return shortly after leaving, even a Buddha would be angry. She didn’t dare take the risk, so in the end, she said nothing else, only told her this important news.
“Awake? Truly awake? How is her condition, is she alright?” Luo Yan was clearly very happy, her voice brimming with excitement, but after the excitement, she worried if anything would happen to Xue Wu.
After all, many people have more or less some sequelae after a car accident, especially since they were now in a book; she couldn’t be careless.
“As soon as the boss woke up, the doctor immediately came over for an examination. The situation looks okay, but the specifics are still unclear.” As Chen Jia spoke, she also grew a bit worried: “Miss Luo, you don’t think anything will happen to the boss, do you?”
“I hope not.” As Luo Yan spoke, she almost unhesitatingly had the driver turn the car back. Although the company matter was urgent, it couldn’t compare to the big villain’s situation. “I’m coming back now to see Miss Xue’s condition. Say no more.”
“Good.” Chen Jia was a bit surprised that Luo Yan would take the initiative to return, but she didn’t show it and waited quietly for her return.
However, no one anticipated that in these few short minutes, a very major change occurred. When Luo Yan arrived at the hospital, she found the atmosphere seemed very silent and heavy.
Luo Yan instantly had a bad feeling. She found Chen Jia and asked directly: “How is Miss Xue’s condition?”
“Miss Luo… our boss seems a bit unwell.” Chen Jia was almost in tears. Seeing Luo Yan arrive, she felt her savior had come and told her everything.
“What happened?” Hearing her say this, Luo Yan’s heart sank. Her greatest fear had indeed come true; the plot had deviated, and she didn’t know what Xue Wu’s condition was now.
“Miss Luo, you’ll know if you go see for yourself.” Chen Jia didn’t know how to explain it and could only let Luo Yan see it for herself for a more direct impression.
Luo Yan asked no more. She frowned, her heart suspended high. She walked with stiff steps toward the ward, wanting to see Xue Wu’s current state.
Xue Wu’s face was still pale, not yet recovered from the serious illness, and her figure was terrifyingly thin. She was sitting on the hospital bed, and her expression seemed fine. She looked up, seemingly talking to a nurse, but Luo Yan couldn’t hear what was said.
She watched from outside the ward for a while and saw Xue Wu’s expression gradually change, becoming confused and distressed. Finally, a tear slid down her face. Luo Yan thought something had happened and, disregarding her surprise at why Xue Wu would cry, rushed in to see what was wrong.
But miraculously, the moment she entered, Xue Wu broke into a smile. She waved toward her and said somewhat complainingly: “Yanyan, why did you just get here?”
Luo Yan: “?” She thought she had misheard and stared at her, the ominous feeling in her heart reaching its peak: “What did you just call me?”
“Yanyan. Is there a problem?” Xue Wu still had gauze on her forehead. She appeared innocent and free-spirited yet lazy—a very contradictory temperament that made one want to watch her even more.
She blinked and looked at her, seemingly unaware that there was anything wrong with what she said, hoping for an answer.
“Miss Xue, you usually call me…”
“Yanyan, you really don’t like me anymore.”
As soon as Xue Wu heard her say “Miss Xue,” her expression changed immediately, becoming troubled and sad, which left Luo Yan’s face full of question marks again.
She didn’t dare stay in the ward anymore. After leaving, she instinctively looked to the doctor for help. The doctor was also somewhat confused and helpless, not knowing exactly what happened. But the results of the preliminary examination were out, so he said to Luo Yan: “Miss Xue likely injured her brain, resulting in memory confusion. Since she woke up, she has been looking for her girlfriend, but she couldn’t say who specifically. It was only when you arrived that she seemed to have found the person she was truly looking for.”
“…”
A deathly silence. After a long, long time, Luo Yan finally came to her senses.
“You mean… she has amnesia?” Luo Yan spoke in a dreamlike way… hesitatingly uttering this impossible possibility she had thought of, her heart not knowing if it was joy or sorrow.
“Yes, it should be amnesia, and we don’t know when she will recover.” The doctor also shook his head and spoke to her with a heart full of melancholy.
“…Alright.” Luo Yan responded blankly, still finding it unbelievable. Her heart was still suspended high, as if one wrong step would shatter her.
She felt she needed to digest this matter well. It came far too unexpectedly, and she had no idea how to respond.
She went back to the ward to see Xue Wu. Since Luo Yan had left the ward before she could stop her, Xue Wu had been watching her anxiously and blankly. Now seeing her return, she sat cross-legged on the bed waiting for her. As soon as she saw her enter, she immediately brightened up and smiled at her—a cautious smile, as if afraid she would leave her again.
Luo Yan found such a smile truly distressing. She approached her, took a chair, and sat before her. Forcing herself to stay calm, she held up a few fingers and asked her: “What number is this?”
“…Yanyan, I only injured my head; I didn’t become stupid.”
“…Then who am I to you now?”
“You are my girlfriend. More specifically, we are… an engaged AO.” Xue Wu didn’t understand why she asked this, but she spoke the truth. She emphasized the latter half of the sentence.
“But we weren’t very close before.” Hearing her personally admit she was her girlfriend, an inexplicable sense of possessiveness inevitably rose in Luo Yan’s heart. She felt this might be Alpha instinct at work, especially after having recently marked her temporarily and then hearing this. However, such an instinct, regardless of everything, should naturally be suppressed, so she spoke quite calmly.
“What do you mean by that? Do you really think that because I have amnesia, you can do whatever you want?”
“…Everything I just said was the truth.”
Luo Yan didn’t expect her reaction to be this large and could only continue to explain with a stiff upper lip.
“What is the truth? Why is it different from everything I remember in my head?” Xue Wu seemed unable to withstand her denial and refusal. Her eyes grew red, looking even more pitiable, making one completely unwilling to speak harsh words. “We are clearly an engaged AO couple. Although we haven’t tested our compatibility yet, I know our compatibility isn’t low. Don’t think about lying to me.”
“We were engaged, but we didn’t love each other. Furthermore, the engagement came about very strangely. You also had someone you liked. I felt there was no need to be tied together, so in the end, we didn’t stay together and called off the engagement.”
“I have someone I like? Who is it? How come I don’t know?” Xue Wu was puzzled by her words. “The person I like is only you and no one else. What are you imagining?”
She spoke with such certainty that it made Luo Yan somewhat confused, wondering if she had gotten something wrong, or if she truly had some mental confusion and imagined something that led Xue Wu to misunderstand.
“The one I liked from beginning to end was only you. On the contrary, you were lukewarm toward me. I actually suspect if you have a new love, or if you just treated me as a substitute and wanted to dump me after getting bored but couldn’t find a chance. Now that there is a chance, you are doing it immediately.”
“Tell me, is that so? Is it?”
She spoke with increasing agitation, as if she had truly projected herself into the situation. With every question she threw at Luo Yan, she moved a bit closer to her. The hospital bed wasn’t very large, and with her movements, she almost fell off. Luo Yan watched in alarm and finally couldn’t resist half-hugging her to press her back onto the bed.
However, once she hugged her, she couldn’t let go. Xue Wu grabbed her sleeve and refused to release it, her words sounding sorrowful with a sob: “Now even you don’t like me anymore, you can’t stand me anymore, can you? So you’re trying every way to abandon me, isn’t that so?”
“I’m not…” But as soon as the words left her mouth, she noticed something was wrong: “No, Miss Xue, it’s not like what you think.”
“Look, you even call me Miss Xue! You never called me ‘Miss Xue’ before. Calling me that now, and you say you’re not trying to abandon me!”
“…”
Luo Yan was driven to the point of collapse by her self-talk. She had no idea what to say. She felt she urgently needed to calm down to prevent something from truly happening, or being confused by her words into admitting something that she couldn’t take back later.
She wanted to press her back onto the bed, but Xue Wu still relied on her embrace and refused to leave. She didn’t know if it was because she had marked her that she was especially dependent on her. In short, Luo Yan clearly felt that Xue Wu’s attitude toward her was completely different now.
She didn’t know if this was a good or bad thing.
“Miss Xue, release me first. I’m not leaving.” Although Luo Yan felt the Omega in her arms was warm, soft, and sweet, and she also liked her dependence, this was still a hospital, and their relationship hadn’t been cleared up yet. She didn’t dare indulge too much in such an atmosphere, for fear of something happening.
“Don’t call me ‘Miss Xue,’ I don’t like it.” Xue Wu didn’t release her but even rested her head gently on Luo Yan’s shoulder, with a sense of attachment: “Yanyan, when the car accident happened, I thought I wouldn’t wake up. And you’re still treating me like this.”
“…Do you remember how the car accident happened?” Luo Yan was now in a dilemma, accepting this arsenic-like sweetness. She didn’t dare hug her back and could only ask her this.
But hearing this question, Xue Wu suddenly burst into uncontrollable sobs. Hot tears dripped onto Luo Yan’s hand, making her scalp tingle even more. Before she could ask what happened, the Omega in her arms questioned her with red eyes: “Are you also abandoning me because I’m pregnant with someone else’s child?!”
Luo Yan: ???
Big villain, don’t say it—I almost forgot about the rumor of you being pregnant! So are you truly pregnant now?!
