After Transmigrating as an Alpha, the Omega Wife Insists on Cuddling - Chapter 2
The moment the nurse pushed the door open, Shen Huailu, afraid that Song Zhuqiu would continue acting foolish, chose to speak first.
“Nurse, you can collect the pheromones now.” As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Huailu quickly turned around and hurriedly left the examination room, as if escaping something unsettling.
Song Zhuqiu watched Shen Huailu’s departing figure with slight confusion and scratched her head.
The nurse carefully peeled off the inhibitor patch from the back of Song Zhuqiu’s neck. The sound of the patch separating was especially noticeable in the quiet examination room.
A fresh, crisp Douglas fir scent spread through the air, pure and intoxicating, like the aroma of a forest in the early morning.
The nurse was a Beta and couldn’t smell it.
Song Zhuqiu, however, caught it sharply. Her senses were instantly and completely awakened.
But from the original owner’s memories, wasn’t her scent purely fir?
Now there was a hint of lemon mixed in, making it smell like Douglas fir.
When Shen Huailu came out of the examination room, Bai Manshuang was still waiting outside, looking at her with a half-smile.
“From the perspective of physical relative distance, your compatibility won’t be low.”
“Well, we’ve already shared joys and hardships together. It’s about time you got to taste the flavor of romance too.” Bai Manshuang still sounded a little gleeful.
“Even a heavenly fairy has to descend to the mortal world eventually~” Bai Manshuang winked at Shen Huailu.
Shen Huailu: “……”
Inside the doctor’s office, the faint scent of medicine mixed with disinfectant.
“Compatibility rate: 95.69%.” Bai Manshuang’s eyes curved with a smile, her voice full of satisfaction at having guessed correctly.
Shen Huailu understood in her heart, though her face looked like she was deep in thought.
Since receiving the original owner’s memories, Song Zhuqiu had been digesting them and could understand what Dr. Bai meant by compatibility rate.
Of the four questions Song Zhuqiu had sorted out at the amusement park, two had now been answered. But what did this have to do with gravity?
Seeing Song Zhuqiu’s increasingly confused expression, Bai Manshuang half-jokingly asked, “Miss Song, how was your high school biology?”
Both Shen Huailu and Bai Manshuang knew she was asking a question she already knew the answer to.
Song Zhuqiu’s memory was decent: “Very bad.”
An unexpectedly honest answer.
Shen Huailu glanced at Song Zhuqiu, a complicated look flashing in her eyes, before turning back to Bai Manshuang.
“When the compatibility rate between AO exceeds 50%, if either party enters a sensitive period or heat, it will activate the gravitational field between them as long as they are within a certain distance, creating physical mutual attraction. With your compatibility rate, Miss Song and A’Lu should be able to feel each other’s attraction from about 9 meters apart.”
Bai Manshuang mischievously omitted some details, not enough to affect the overall situation. If Shen Huailu really needed to know, she would tell her everything — it all depended on how her childhood friend wanted to “deal with” this Alpha.
“You both felt it at the amusement park and in the examination room earlier.”
Bai Manshuang smiled helplessly and looked at Shen Huailu. “From a biological perspective, you two are destined partners.”
This statement was easy to misunderstand. Shen Huailu wanted to add something to prevent Song Zhuqiu from getting the wrong idea.
But Song Zhuqiu seemed to have not heard Bai Manshuang’s last sentence at all. She was lost in her own thoughts.
She had caught the key point in the first half of Dr. Bai’s explanation: the adjusted parameter was gravity — specifically, gravity between living beings, and even more specifically limited to AO pairs.
Song Zhuqiu’s curiosity was greatly aroused. She looked at Bai Manshuang with expectant eyes, her voice filled with the desire to explore. “Is there more?”
Bai Manshuang suddenly laughed.
“Isn’t ‘destined partners’ enough for you, Miss Song?”
“A’Lu is a highly sought-after Omega, you know~ So many prestigious families have come knocking with marriage proposals. She’s a heavenly fairy that countless young heirs chase after but can’t obtain.” Bai Manshuang raised an eyebrow and smiled.
Song Zhuqiu was dumbfounded.
What destined partners? What partners?
Oh, right — the other party was her childhood betrothal.
But Song Zhuqiu didn’t continue thinking along Bai Manshuang’s line of thought.
She was simply curious about this gravity phenomenon. She had to admit, this setting was really interesting.
Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, the evening glow poured into the office like a flowing oil painting. The interwoven orange-red and violet light cast a warm halo on Song Zhuqiu’s face.
Shen Huailu looked at the scene before her, a trace of appreciation appearing in her eyes.
Song Zhuqiu’s appearance hit her aesthetic preferences precisely.
Song Zhuqiu hesitated for a moment, her brows slightly furrowed. Curiosity and reason battled within her, but curiosity ultimately won. Since this was a marriage partner arranged by her family, she could naturally trust her.
“Miss Shen, I wonder if it would be convenient for you to stay with me at a hotel tonight? We can book a two-bedroom suite. I’d like to study the gravitational field between the two of us.”
Song Zhuqiu spoke like a rookie explorer, full of endless curiosity and desire to explore this new world. She was eager to uncover every unknown.
Fearing the other party might misunderstand, Song Zhuqiu even used polite language and offered an explanation.
Song Zhuqiu had no real concept of AO differences. In her eyes, they were both girls. Sleeping together was nothing, and booking a two-bedroom suite was even less of an issue.
She could also discover some interesting things.
Song Zhuqiu secretly approved of her own idea, thinking it was very constructive.
Shen Huailu’s eyebrows twitched violently as she listened.
Song Zhuqiu was really quite lacking in tact.
Beside them, Bai Manshuang raised an eyebrow teasingly, looking like she was watching a good show and clearly wanting to encourage her to agree.
Shen Huailu examined Song Zhuqiu’s eyes and found them clear and transparent, seemingly without any awareness of what was going through Shen Huailu’s mind.
At dusk, the orange afterglow from the horizon spilled through the window onto Song Zhuqiu, dyeing her cheeks with a golden light, like a warm painting.
Shen Huailu stared intently and, as if possessed, agreed to Song Zhuqiu’s request.
Neither of them expected that although Bai Manshuang had explained the gravitational field, there was still a very important part she hadn’t mentioned.
As they were leaving, Bai Manshuang secretly slipped a bottle of pepper spray into Shen Huailu’s hand, her eyes full of mischief.
Shen Huailu: “……”
It probably wouldn’t come to that.
She could sense that Song Zhuqiu had no hostility. Moreover, the high compatibility between their pheromones gave her an almost instinctive sense of trust toward Song Zhuqiu.
Shen Huailu drove them to the nearest hotel. The two got out of the car together.
The luxurious hotel lobby was filled with a faint aroma of incense, accompanied by soft piano music that made people unconsciously slow their steps.
Shen Huailu felt slightly nervous inside, while Song Zhuqiu looked around with mild curiosity.
As soon as they entered the lobby, the hotel manager came forward with an enthusiastic smile. “Good evening, Young Miss. The presidential suite has been reserved for you. Will you be staying tonight?” His tone was respectful with a hint of subtle anticipation.
Song Zhuqiu had just dug this information out of the original owner’s memories — this was the Song family’s hotel.
Song Zhuqiu smiled slightly at the manager and nodded.
The two followed the manager through the resplendent lobby, took the elegantly decorated elevator to the top floor, and the elevator doors slowly opened.
Before them was the luxurious entrance of the presidential suite. Exquisite art pieces hung on the surrounding walls, and the floor was covered with thick red carpet.
So tacky, Song Zhuqiu complained inwardly.
Neither of them remembered to book a two-bedroom suite.
“Chairman! Madam! Good evening, sorry to disturb you so late. The Young Miss just brought a stunning beauty into the presidential suite!!!”
After escorting the two into the room, the hotel manager smiled as he called the group’s boss.
On the other end of the phone, Song Zhuqiu’s parents looked at each other in silence for a moment.
“The child has grown up. She’s finally learned how to steal other people’s cabbages,” Song’s mother said with a gratified expression, leaning against her husband.
“Shall we start now? Or do you want to shower first?” Song Zhuqiu’s eyes sparkled with anticipation as she looked excitedly at Shen Huailu.
Hearing this, a faint blush crept up Shen Huailu’s cheeks. She gently bit her lip.
It wasn’t entirely her fault — Song Zhuqiu’s wording was too suggestive. She also didn’t know exactly how Song Zhuqiu wanted to “study” it.
There was mutual trust between them. Even if Song Zhuqiu spoke bluntly, Shen Huailu felt she could accept it. This was a feeling she had never experienced in her twenty-two years of life.
“Shower first.” Shen Huailu let Song Zhuqiu go first.
She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the distant high-rises, and let out a soft sigh.
The distant lights were like scattered stars, faint and indifferent. The sound of running water came from the bathroom behind her, adding a touch of life to the quiet night.
After showering, Song Zhuqiu stepped out with a white towel on her head. Water droplets slid from her collarbone into her bathrobe. She walked out casually, looking completely relaxed.
The moment she stepped out, Song Zhuqiu noticed something was wrong. The force seemed much stronger at night than during the day.
She quickly walked toward the living room.
“Your turn to shower,” Song Zhuqiu said, then walked out of the bedroom into the living room.
Shen Huailu stood quietly by the window, her eyes misty as she gazed at the night view, completely immersed in her thoughts. She didn’t notice the abnormal force suddenly surging in the air behind her.
After showering, Shen Huailu put on a bathrobe identical to Song Zhuqiu’s. The fabric was soft and light, gently wrapping around her body. She stepped out of the bedroom with an indescribable sense of peace.
Only after stepping out did Shen Huailu realize the problem.
“Is it more serious?” Song Zhuqiu asked with concern.
Shen Huailu didn’t answer. The gland at the back of her neck trembled slightly, and waves of elegant white plum blossom scent uncontrollably overflowed.
Her throat felt itchy. She hadn’t expected the effect to be this strong — it wasn’t just gravity.
Song Zhuqiu suggested Shen Huailu call Dr. Bai. Shen Huailu called twice before the other party finally picked up.
She turned on speakerphone. Before they could say anything —
Bai Manshuang answered breathlessly, her voice hoarse, and asked fiercely, “A’Lu, why are you calling me at this hour? Is Miss Song bad in bed or just incapable?”
Even if Song Zhuqiu was slow, she could more or less guess what was going on from the context.
It was a bit awkward.
But… incapable?
Song Zhuqiu clenched her teeth. She could still understand when someone was insulting her.
Shen Huailu ignored the strange remark and asked calmly, “Bai Manshuang, is there something you didn’t tell us earlier?”
Bai Manshuang replied gruffly, “You interrupted my good time.”
Shen Huailu hit the vital point: “If you don’t tell us, we can keep talking on the phone until you do.”
Knowing her childhood friend would follow through, Bai Manshuang took a deep breath and said:
“When a gravitational field exists between both parties, once the sun sets, the gravity will gradually strengthen. Even at its peak, it’s still weaker than Earth’s gravity, but it shouldn’t be underestimated.
Due to the scarcity of cases — currently, there are no more than a thousand AO pairs worldwide with pheromone compatibility over 50% that can generate a gravitational field. High-compatibility pairs like yours are even rarer.
There was once a mad scientist in the research community who experimented on an AO pair. The poor couple both died during one experiment. After that, no AO was willing to be lab rats.
Therefore, we currently have no specific numerical data on the strength of attraction between high-compatibility AO pairs at night.
Miss Song is full of curiosity, so why don’t you two explore it tonight~ I’m done talking! Don’t bother me again!!”
As soon as she finished, Bai Manshuang quickly hung up.
The busy tone echoed in the air. The two looked at each other in silence.
After listening to Dr. Bai, a gleam flashed in Song Zhuqiu’s eyes. Her curiosity was completely ignited, and she was eager to explore the unknown immediately.
She rubbed her hands together and looked at Shen Huailu expectantly. “Shall we start now?”
She was raring to go.
Shen Huailu had just finished digesting Bai Manshuang’s words when she heard Song Zhuqiu’s ambiguous suggestion.
A blush mixed with shame and anger gradually appeared on her face. She was both embarrassed and furious.
Shen Huailu was an adult Omega. Lack of experience didn’t mean she was ignorant — especially with a doctor as a childhood friend, she understood physiological knowledge better than most.
Enduring the discomfort in her body, she followed the pulling force and walked toward Song Zhuqiu.
“How do we start now?” Shen Huailu approached Song Zhuqiu.
She knelt on the sofa with one knee, the other leg bent against the soft edge of the sofa. Her body swayed slightly, looking somewhat unsteady.
Her arm rested on the back of the sofa, a short distance from Song Zhuqiu — as if wanting to press close, yet keeping some distance.
“Like this?” Shen Huailu’s arm brushed against Song Zhuqiu’s bathrobe, the corners of her eyes turning red.
“Or… like that?” As soon as she spoke, Shen Huailu leaned her upper body forward.
Their noses were now only 1 centimeter apart.
The room was dyed with an ambiguous atmosphere. Every small movement and breath from Shen Huailu seemed to carry a seductive meaning.
Shen Huailu endured her shyness and the increasing discomfort from her gland.
Her breathing was rapid and hot, like scorching wind blowing directly against Song Zhuqiu’s lips.
Both of them were tormented by the attraction, yet they simultaneously exerted force backward, trying to maintain this last bit of distance.
Song Zhuqiu stared at Shen Huailu, her gaze hazy, muttering something under her breath.
Shen Huailu listened carefully.
Song Zhuqiu’s voice gradually became low and serious: “The center of mass of the human body is roughly around the waist and abdomen, so the best way to alleviate the current gravitational field should be…”
She was immersed in analyzing the physical phenomenon, her brows tightly furrowed.
Shen Huailu: “……” Grinding her teeth, anger and embarrassment intertwining in her heart.
She was truly angry. Feeling like she was performing a one-woman show, she pulled back.
After finishing her train of thought, Song Zhuqiu looked up and found that the person in front of her had moved further away. She was puzzled — weren’t they supposed to study this together?
She quickly stood up and walked firmly toward Shen Huailu.
Shen Huailu crossed her arms over her chest. As Song Zhuqiu moved forward, Shen Huailu stepped back.
Song Zhuqiu didn’t speak. Seeing the other party moving in sync with her, she thought for a moment. She figured Shen Huailu was probably testing the strength of the force by controlling the distance.
It seemed that this native, Shen Huailu, was also curious. That was great! She had been worried the other party might feel offended.
The corners of Song Zhuqiu’s mouth lifted slightly. She raised an eyebrow, a challenging glint flashing in her eyes.
Shen Huailu’s mood hadn’t settled yet, and now the person was chasing after her. She, an Omega, was being so proactive, yet the other party was stuck in research mode — and Song Zhuqiu was even smiling right now.
She really didn’t want to deal with Song Zhuqiu anymore. She turned around, intending to go back to the bedroom to rest.
The night was deep. The sky before dawn was as dark as ink. The silence outside the window contrasted sharply with the tension inside the room.
Song Zhuqiu felt the gravity might have intensified again. Fortunately, there was still some distance between them, so she could endure it.
But when Shen Huailu suddenly turned, it instantly increased the distance between them.
Song Zhuqiu was caught off guard. She didn’t notice her balance and was pulled forward by the sudden surge of gravity, staggering.
Unable to steady herself, she fell to the ground with a thud. Before hitting the floor, she tried to grab Shen Huailu’s shoulder to prevent her from pulling further away.
Unexpectedly, in the fall, she grabbed the other party’s ankle instead and, due to inertia, yanked hard.
Shen Huailu’s ankle tightened. Pulled by Song Zhuqiu’s sudden tug, she lost her balance and fell to her knees on the floor with a “thump.”
Song Zhuqiu: “……”
Shen Huailu: “……”
