After the Scumbag Alpha Tries to Save the Love-Struck and Flips Over (Quick Transmigration GL) - Chapter 7
“Isn’t it normal to try and court one’s fiancée?” Shen Su smiled, saying with complete candidness.
“Then… why are you trying to court me?” Lu Yan looked at Shen Su expectantly.
Shen Su put down her chopsticks, wiped her hands with a wet wipe, then clasped her hands together, resting her chin on them, and gazed at Lu Yan, asking meaningfully, “You don’t know?”
Lu Yan had guessed the answer, but she was still a little afraid that Shen Su was playing with her, so she didn’t dare to bring it up and could only say defiantly: “I don’t know.”
“Are you truly unaware, or are you pretending to be?” Shen Su looked at Lu Yan with a smile in her eyes.
Lu Yan pouted: “I’m not a mind reader inside your belly, how would I know what you’re thinking?”
Shen Su crooked her finger at Lu Yan. Lu Yan leaned forward slightly and blinked.
“You’ll know tonight,” Shen Su’s voice was light, her eyebrows slightly raised, and her eyes sparkled, carrying a faint hint of seduction.
Lu Yan’s face flushed. She instantly understood what Shen Su meant.
After an Alpha and an Omega perform the marking act, the release of pheromones affects the other’s emotions.
In other words, she could feel Shen Su’s emotions through her pheromones, to feel if Shen Su… liked her.
That night, Lu Yan was drunk and only had vague memories. She didn’t remember the details very clearly.
After they finished eating, they went for a walk downstairs in the neighborhood.
“Shen Su, don’t you think this is amazing?” Lu Yan put her hands behind her back, leaned closer to Shen Su, and asked with a lively tone.
“Hmm?” Shen Su curved her lips, “You think it’s amazing that we’re taking a walk together now?”
“Yes, we were still rivals before.” Lu Yan thought for a moment, reached out, and linked her arm with Shen Su’s. “You’re different from what I imagined. You’re very good, I…”
Suddenly, a “meow” sound came from the bushes.
Lu Yan’s eyes lit up. The words on the tip of her tongue were instantly forgotten. She let go of Shen Su’s hand and sprinted to the bushes, where she met eyes with a tabby cat that was stretching out lazily.
Lu Yan cautiously extended her hand to tentatively stroke it. The tabby cat “meowed,” then rolled over, exposing its white belly for Lu Yan to pet.
“So cute!” Lu Yan reached out and carefully rubbed the tabby cat’s belly.
“You like cats very much?” Shen Su stopped and observed the tabby cat for a while. “Do you want to keep it? This tabby cat looks like a stray. I’ve seen it a few times in the neighborhood.”
“Can I?” Lu Yan’s eyes sparkled with joy. She picked up the tabby cat, and it obediently nestled in her arms. Her expression suddenly dimmed, “But we can’t keep cats in the school dorm, and my roommate is allergic to cat hair.”
“Then let’s keep it here.” Shen Su tentatively reached out and stroked the tabby cat’s small head. “We can take care of it together.”
“Really?” Lu Yan confirmed again.
Shen Su nodded: “Of course. Then… should we take this tabby cat to the pet hospital for a check-up? And get some vaccinations?”
“Okay.”
Shen Su and Lu Yan then carried the tabby cat to the nearest pet hospital.
It was only five hundred meters away from them.
“What’s the name of this little tabby?” the Beta receptionist asked.
Lu Yan said a bit sheepishly: “It doesn’t have a name yet…”
The Beta receptionist smiled: “It’s alright. You can give it a temporary name for us to register.”
Lu Yan turned to Shen Su: “Since we found it in the bushes, how about we name it Mu Mu?” (Mu Mu means “wood” or “tree” in Chinese).
“Good.” Shen Su smiled gently and stroked Lu Yan’s head.
Lu Yan inexplicably felt like she had become the cat being petted, her gaze momentarily stagnant.
The Beta receptionist looked down to enter the information, not noticing the intimate atmosphere between the two: “Mu Mu it is. It’s registered. Please wait for the number to be called for the check-up.”
Shen Su retracted her hand and said, “Okay.”
When she saw the doctor, Shen Su deeply regretted not writing her settings completely.
The doctor was a female Omega with a delicate appearance.
She glanced indifferently at Shen Su, then at Lu Yan, who was holding Shen Su’s arm, and gave a cold laugh: “Long time no see. I didn’t expect you to be getting a cat.”
Lu Yan watched the doctor warily, tightening her grip on Shen Su’s hand.
Shen Su looked down at their clasped hands. Her eyelid twitched at the pressure…
Shen Su quickly said: “My fiancée likes kittens, so we’re getting one.”
Lu Yan’s expression visibly improved when she heard the word “fiancée.” She lifted her chin slightly, instantly feeling more confident: “That’s right.”
The doctor was slightly stunned: “Fiancée… I didn’t expect you to be getting married so young?”
Back then, after she and Shen Su flirted for a while, she confessed, and Shen Su rejected her with two reasons—one was that she didn’t like small animals, and the second was that she was still young and not planning to date.
Turns out, they were all just excuses.
The doctor lowered her gaze, suppressed the disappointment in her heart, and began to examine the tabby cat.
During this time, Lu Yan stuck very close to Shen Su, practically clinging to her.
Shen Su understood the reason for Lu Yan’s actions, but she didn’t expose her.
She enjoyed the clingy, unspoken affection during the flirting stage.
By the time they finished with the tabby cat, it was evening.
Lu Yan naturally followed Shen Su back to the apartment. She sat on the sofa, ordering cat food, cat toys, and a cat tree for the kitten.
When it came time to fill in the address, she suddenly remembered that this was Shen Su’s apartment.
After mulling it over for a while, she walked to the kitchen and poked her head in: “Shen Su, what’s the address here? I bought some things for the kitten.”
Shen Su freed a hand, picked up her phone, and sent the address to Lu Yan: “If you don’t have time to receive the package, you can also use my number.”
“Okay.” Lu Yan thought about it and filled in Shen Su’s number.
Tonight, Shen Su made sweet and sour pork ribs and smashed cucumber salad.
After they finished eating, they sat on the sofa, playing with the cat and watching TV.
Lu Yan held up her phone and took a photo of their “family of three.”
After the photo, the tabby cat ran off the sofa.
“It’s getting late. Are you going to stay over?” Shen Su offered a cherry to Lu Yan’s mouth, her fingertip subtly brushing Lu Yan’s lips.
Lu Yan opened her mouth slightly to take the cherry, but Shen Su didn’t withdraw her hand.
“Mmm.” She instantly widened her eyes. This familiar sensation in her mouth…
Their burning gazes met in the air, and the atmosphere gradually heated up.
Shen Su withdrew her hand just before Lu Yan spit out the pit, and smiled slowly: “My apologies. I was momentarily lost in thought just now.”
“Looking at what?” Lu Yan spat the cherry pit into a nearby trash can, asking knowingly.
Shen Su parted her lips slightly, her voice light, like a whisper floating in the air: “Looking at my fiancée…”
Two suspicious red spots crept up Lu Yan’s cheeks. She pouted: “We’re not even officially engaged yet!”
“But you didn’t deny it at the hospital, did you?” Shen Su propped her head up with one hand, sitting sideways with one leg crossed over the other, her lower leg swinging irregularly, occasionally brushing against Lu Yan’s trousers.
“I…” Lu Yan glimpsed the meaningful smile on the corner of Shen Su’s mouth, rolled her eyes, and argued defiantly, “I was just being nice to you! If I had denied it right there, wouldn’t you have lost face in front of your ex-… fling?”
Shen Su let out a soft “Mmm,” moved closer to Lu Yan, reached out to hook her neck, and whispered close to her ear: “Thank you, fiancée.”
“Just thank you with words? Where’s the reward?” Lu Yan covered her slightly tingling ear, turned her head, and met Shen Su’s gaze.”
