My Omega Is A Top Heavenly Master (GL) - Chapter 9

Mu Baicheng did not understand why Qin Xiyao had suddenly asked her to call her Yaoyao. Yet when Qin Xiyao uttered those two syllables, Mu Baicheng felt as though an invisible hand had seized her heart and was squeezing tighter and tighter, leaving her numb with pain.

“Yaoyao?” Mu Baicheng called cautiously.

Qin Xiyao opened her eyes and mocked herself inwardly. She truly had no memories. The person from her previous life never would have called her so cautiously. That woman had been gentle yet aloof, as powerful as the stars, sun, and moon.

Without revealing anything, Qin Xiyao withdrew from Mu Baicheng’s arms.

What am I doing? Didn’t I decide nine hundred years ago that I would never love her again? Hasn’t she already hurt you enough?

Qin Xiyao swept a cold gaze over Mu Baicheng.

Now she is merely a tool that provides you with magical power. Why think about anything else? Mu Baicheng was the one who broke her vow to remain with you for lifetime after lifetime. Besides, once you become a Saint, lifetimes will no longer have any meaning.

Mu Baicheng shuddered beneath Qin Xiyao’s gaze.

What was wrong with this troublesome ancestor? Had she changed her mind? Was she going to charge tuition after all? Was it because she had not been satisfied with how Mu Baicheng called her name?

Heavens, how was she supposed to live like this?

“Class begins.”

Qin Xiyao tossed the Classic of Mountains and Seas from the coffee table to Mu Baicheng. Mu Baicheng’s foundation was terribly weak. She needed to read more.

Mu Baicheng stared blankly at the book in her hands before breathing a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness. This troublesome ancestor had not changed her mind.

She opened the book and sat cross-legged on the sofa.

“Can I read it aloud? My memory isn’t very good.”

Qin Xiyao casually picked up a copy of the Book of Changes and sat to one side without sparing Mu Baicheng a glance.

“Do as you please.”

Mu Baicheng opened the book and began reading aloud while memorizing it, looking as earnest as a child who had only just started school.

Summer brought frequent rain, and today happened to be one of those days. One moment, sunlight was shining brightly; the next, rain began pouring from the sky.

The raindrops struck the windowsill, their incessant pattering playing an irregular melody. The chaotic noise made it impossible for Mu Baicheng to concentrate. She irritably walked to the window and shut it tightly.

The room had only just fallen silent when the doorbell became the next disturbance.

Mu Baicheng was about to curse when Qin Xiyao set her book on the coffee table.

“Keep memorizing. I’ll answer the door.”

Qin Xiyao knew perfectly well who was outside. Liu Suhong was the only person who knew they lived here. Moreover, Qin Xiyao had already divined that they would remain neighbors with Liu Suhong for some time.

She opened the door, and sure enough, Young Miss Liu Suhong stood outside in casual clothes, smiling brightly at her.

“Xiyao, I’ve moved into the apartment across from yours. It’ll be much more convenient from now on.”

More convenient for what?

Naturally, it would make it easier for Qin Xiyao to read her face and tell her fortune.

“It doesn’t matter. I won’t do it for free anyway.”

Qin Xiyao folded her arms and turned around.

Liu Suhong clicked her tongue. Just look at how heartless this woman was! Liu Suhong had only just solved their housing problem, yet Qin Xiyao still treated her so coldly.

“Haah.”

Liu Suhong sighed. There was nothing she could do when Qin Xiyao was so capable. As long as Qin Xiyao was willing to perform readings for her, Liu Suhong would gladly let the two of them live here for free.

Making herself at home, Liu Suhong sat at the dining table across from Qin Xiyao.

Qin Xiyao read her book while Liu Suhong watched Qin Xiyao.

Qin Xiyao raised her eyes. When their gazes met, she asked, “Aren’t you working today?”

She remembered that Liu Suhong’s business card identified her as the general manager of XX Technology Company. She was not the kind of wealthy young lady who did nothing all day.

Today was a weekday. Qin Xiyao had only remained home with Mu Baicheng because she had accurately predicted the weather.

Liu Suhong spread her hands.

“The company doesn’t have any important business lately. If I can do my work as general manager from home, why should I insist on going to the office?”

Qin Xiyao stopped responding.

Young Miss Liu had always been extremely talkative. Even if Qin Xiyao remained silent, Liu Suhong could find countless topics and continue their one-sided conversation.

Perhaps Liu Suhong was speaking too loudly, because Mu Baicheng involuntarily raised her own voice while reading. Their two voices intertwined, making it sound as though they were battling each other.

The corner of Liu Suhong’s mouth twitched. She covered the side of her mouth with one hand and leaned mysteriously toward Qin Xiyao.

“Is your Alpha preparing for the civil service examination?”

In Liu Suhong’s experience, only someone preparing for the civil service exam would study so seriously while radiating such a fierce aura.

Qin Xiyao blinked.

Although she had not been in this world long, she knew what the civil service examination was. She simply could not understand how Liu Suhong had concluded that Mu Baicheng was preparing for it.

Without warning, Liu Suhong was struck by Qin Xiyao’s adorableness.

My heavens! How can such a cold face look so cute?

“Woman, please stop unleashing your charms,” Liu Suhong declared with exaggerated gravity.

Qin Xiyao helplessly turned away and prepared to resume reading, only for her stomach to protest.

Two soft growls sounded.

Only then did Qin Xiyao realize that she had not eaten breakfast.

Remembering the KJJ Family Bucket she had eaten yesterday morning, Qin Xiyao quickly walked into the living room and pulled the book from Mu Baicheng’s hands.

“I’m hungry.”

Qin Xiyao’s black pupils were round, making her resemble a cat begging for food.

The words from the Classic of Mountains and Seas lodged themselves awkwardly in Mu Baicheng’s throat.

Why did she feel like an animal caretaker?

“No way. Your Alpha still hasn’t cooked for you?” Liu Suhong asked in astonishment.

Young Miss Liu had countless suitors, all of whom shared one common trait: every one of them knew how to cook.

When Liu Suhong’s mother was still alive, her father had also prepared every meal for the family. As a result, Young Miss Liu had grown up believing that every Alpha in the world knew how to cook.

Mu Baicheng stiffly turned toward her and pointed at her own nose.

“I’m an Alpha. Why would I know how to cook?”

“Huh? Don’t all Alphas know how to cook?”

Mu Baicheng was speechless.

Where exactly had she gotten that ridiculous idea?

“Forget it. Wait here obediently. I’ll go buy something for you.”

Mu Baicheng knew what Qin Xiyao wanted to eat. She walked to the entryway, casually picked up her old umbrella, and prepared to leave.

Liu Suhong glanced at the oppressively dark sky outside. In weather like this, no umbrella would be much help.

“Where are you going in this horrible weather? Are you planning to offer yourself as a sacrifice to the heavens?”

“She wants a Family Bucket,” Mu Baicheng answered while changing her shoes.

Qin Xiyao murmured her agreement.

“I want the original-recipe fried chicken most.”

Liu Suhong inwardly exclaimed in disbelief.

This had to be more than simple true love, right?

Without several lifetimes’ worth of fate between them, what Alpha would do something this insane?

“Can’t you just order delivery?” Liu Suhong muttered.

At the mention of delivery, Mu Baicheng’s expression suddenly became solemn. She gazed gravely at the pouring rain outside.

“In this weather, they charge an additional delivery fee.”

In short, it was not worth the money.

Liu Suhong was speechless.

She never imagined that would be the reason.

“That’s enough. I have ingredients at home, and I know how to cook.”

“You know how to cook?” Mu Baicheng asked in surprise.

No matter how she looked at Liu Suhong, she appeared to be a sheltered young lady who had never lifted a finger around the house.

Could everything she made be a culinary disaster?

Seeing Mu Baicheng’s wary expression, Liu Suhong rolled her eyes.

She had only two hobbies: art and food. After graduating from high school, she had specifically attended culinary school. She knew how to prepare Western food, Chinese food, and fast food alike.

Qin Xiyao immediately sprang to her feet. She walked over to Liu Suhong and tugged at the hem of her shirt.

“I believe you. I want something a little spicy.”

Qin Xiyao could tell from Liu Suhong’s face that she was not lying. She truly knew how to cook and would even become a virtuous wife and loving mother in the future.

It seemed that Golden Immortal was quite fortunate.

Liu Suhong patted her chest.

“Leave it to me. Xiyao, come home with me.”

She took Qin Xiyao’s hand and led her out.

Mu Baicheng followed them and closed the door behind her.

“Wait for me!”

Liu Suhong’s home was simply furnished, making it obvious that she had only recently moved in.

However, the first thing that greeted them after they entered was a portrait of a half-naked man.

Qin Xiyao grumbled inwardly.

Perhaps once she had recovered enough power, she should send a message to that Golden Immortal and ask her to come discipline her future wife.

“Isn’t he handsome?”

Liu Suhong nudged Qin Xiyao’s shoulder with her elbow and spoke with a sly grin.

Was this not precisely why she liked handsome young men? She was obsessed with their abdominal muscles.

Qin Xiyao looked away.

The image appeared unbearably tacky to her. She truly could not understand why Liu Suhong liked such things.

“I like women.”

Once they reached the living room, Qin Xiyao sat on the sofa like the polite guest she was.

Liu Suhong’s apartment was considerably larger than theirs. Someone had clearly examined its feng shui before, as it had been arranged according to a Five Ghosts Wealth-Bringing Formation.

Mu Baicheng sat beside Qin Xiyao and regarded her curiously.

Qin Xiyao had transmigrated here, and her previous world did not seem to have Alpha, Beta, and Omega genders.

Had she already liked women back then?

“Why are you staring at me?” Qin Xiyao asked, turning toward her.

This woman had been looking at her without blinking for more than ten minutes.

Was there something on her face?

Mu Baicheng shook her head.

“Did you already like women before?”

Female Alphas were rare in this world, just like male Omegas. Most Omegas therefore preferred men.

Compared with female Alphas, male Alphas were generally more physically powerful and better able to make an Omega feel secure.

“Why are you asking?”

Qin Xiyao did not want to answer.

Throughout her hundred thousand years of life, she had only ever fallen in love with one person.

That person simply happened to be a woman.

“I’m curious.”

Mu Baicheng leaned back and allowed herself to sink into the soft sofa.

Liu Suhong’s sofa truly was comfortable.

“In this world, most Omegas are like Young Miss Liu. They prefer male Alphas with defined abs.”

“You have them too.”

The Omega’s fingertips caressed Mu Baicheng’s soft abdomen. Even through the fabric, she could clearly feel the defined lines beneath.

Mu Baicheng stared blankly at Qin Xiyao as she moved closer.

Qin Xiyao lifted the hem of Mu Baicheng’s shirt and slipped her hand underneath. Her cool fingertips sent shivers rippling across Mu Baicheng’s abdomen.

They felt quite pleasant beneath her fingers.

Qin Xiyao tilted her head and looked at Mu Baicheng’s face.

She was beautiful too.

In her previous life, Qin Xiyao had been bewitched by this very face.

Returning to her senses, Mu Baicheng pulled Qin Xiyao’s hand out from beneath her shirt.

“Could you stop launching these surprise attacks?”

“Didn’t you say you would listen to me?”

Qin Xiyao rested against Mu Baicheng’s shoulder.

“Let me touch you again.”

One touch restored some of her magical power. Why had Mu Baicheng pulled her hand away?

Mu Baicheng shook her head.

“No.”

“Oh?”

A cold glint flashed through Qin Xiyao’s eyes.

With a sudden burst of strength, she pushed Mu Baicheng onto the sofa.

Qin Xiyao straddled her waist and looked down at her from above.

“You don’t get a say in whether you’re willing.”

Qin Xiyao needed magical power now, yet Mu Baicheng dared to refuse to cooperate?

Her gaze settled upon Mu Baicheng’s lips.

If she kissed her, would she recover even more power?

Would Mu Baicheng…

What did it matter?

Mu Baicheng owed her this.

Qin Xiyao lowered herself.

Mu Baicheng’s eyes widened as Qin Xiyao moved closer and closer, their breaths mingling.

The Omega’s exquisitely beautiful face filled Mu Baicheng’s vision.

Her heart began pounding beyond her control, and she could no longer tell whether she felt excited or simply bewildered…
