OO Romance—The Yuri Of All Yuri! - Chapter 12
She knew it! She knew it!!
She knew this woman would do something shady behind her back!
Su Yi was furious.
She did not want to lose her composure like this, but she could not control it. In less than twenty-four hours, this woman had already angered her so badly that she had lost her calm several times.
Clutching her burning stomach, Su Yi forced down her rage and reached out to turn on the bathroom light. Warm yellow light flooded the room. Bian Lu, standing beneath the shower with a bath sponge in her left hand and body wash in her right, had nowhere to hide.
“I’m asking you! What are you doing?!”
Bian Lu blinked. “Taking a shower.”
She still said “ah.” She actually dared to say it as if nothing had happened?!
Su Yi had already barged in, and the light was on, yet Bian Lu did not even make an instinctive move to cover herself! She was far too used to this, wasn’t she? Just how many people had seen her before?
Truly… shame-less!
If this were Bian Lu’s own body, Su Yi would not care even if she ran around naked.
But this was her body.
Su Yi’s body!
How could she… how could she be so casual?!
Angry!
Her chest hurt.
If she died young, it would definitely be because Bian Lu had angered her to death!
Calm down. Calm down, Su Yi.
Her mother had said before that the angrier one became, the calmer one had to be. Only then would one not give their opponent an opening.
Su Yi took a deep breath, turned around, and began rummaging through cabinets for a bathrobe. She did not like other people entering her private space, so there were no housekeepers living in her home. Usually, Aunt Zhou came over twice a week to clean and tidy up.
Aunt Zhou was also the one who put away the bathrobes. Usually, two or three were placed on the rack, with another two or three stored away as backups.
Where were they?
As she searched, she said, “Didn’t I tell you this morning that you weren’t allowed to shower? If your ears don’t work, you can donate them to someone else.”
“But I ran around all day. I’ll be dirty if I don’t wash.”
“Even if it’s dirty, it’s my body that’s dirty. What does that have to do with you?”
“But I’m the one using it right now.”
“So what? You’re only temporarily lodging in my body. I’m the landlord! If you’re living in someone else’s house, shouldn’t you follow that person’s rules?”
“But I’ve never heard of a landlord forbidding someone from cleaning the room.”
Su Yi: “…”
Why. Do. You. Have. So. Many. Buts?!
Are you trying to anger me to death so you can completely take over my nest?!
Don’t get angry, Su Yi. Don’t get angry.
You’ve already lost control too many times today. Even if you were shocked by suddenly swapping bodies, you shouldn’t still be unable to recover after so long. You need to learn to control yourself. Right now, it’s Bian Lu angering you. If it were those people from the board of directors, acting like this would only make them push further.
“That was only an analogy. Since you’re using my body right now, you should respect my privacy. I don’t like others prying into my privacy.”
“But I turned off the light.”
Another “but”!
Su Yi said irritably, “Who knows if you turned off the light so you could do something even more excessive?”
“We’re both omegas. What else could I do?”
“That’s hard to say. What if you have a habit of pleasuring yourself?”
“Self-pleasure isn’t an illness. Compulsive self-pleasure is.”
Su Yi choked on anger. “Who’s discussing that with you? Do you have any sense of shame?”
Bian Lu actually looked rather wronged.
“You were the one who brought it up first.”
“I’m talking about my body. My privacy!”
She was absolutely doing this on purpose.
She was trying to anger Su Yi to death!
“Don’t be angry. I won’t wash next time.”
“Forget next time. You’re not allowed to wash now!”
Su Yi finally found a spare bathrobe, shook it open, and walked toward Bian Lu.
“Put it on. Come out.”
Bian Lu still seemed a little resistant. “At least let me finish this time.”
“I said, put it on. Come out!”
“Oh.”
She only listened when Su Yi got forceful with her. She really was someone who bullied the soft and feared the hard!
Bian Lu reached out and turned off the shower, then really did obediently walk toward her.
“Don’t move! You’re not allowed to come over!”
The large mirror above the sink was embedded in the wall. If Bian Lu took another two steps, there would be no privacy left at all!
Su Yi scolded Bian Lu while holding the bathrobe open with both hands and quickly walking over. With one lift of her arms, she draped it over Bian Lu’s shoulders.
“Raise your arms.”
Bian Lu obediently raised her arms. The body wash fell, but she was still clutching the bath sponge.
“Put down the sponge before raising your arms!”
“Oh.”
Spending even one more day with her would shorten Su Yi’s life.
After helping Bian Lu put on the bathrobe and tie the belt, Su Yi finally let out a slight breath of relief. Bian Lu’s hair was wet, and the faint scent of shampoo could be detected.
It seemed she had already washed her hair.
Washing hair was still something Su Yi could accept.
She grabbed another towel and put it over Bian Lu’s head, casually wiping at her hair. Her gaze accidentally swept over the back of Bian Lu’s neck.
“Why are you showering with a blocker patch on?”
Blocker patches were used to prevent pheromones from leaking out. Wearing one was about the same as wearing makeup. Keeping it on all day was not good for the gland, even with a breathable design. Most people removed it once they got home. That was basic common sense.
Bian Lu was an omega too. How could she not understand even this bit of common sense? Did keeping it covered like that not feel uncomfortable?
Heh. Why should Su Yi care whether Bian Lu felt uncomfortable?
She was simply worried that Bian Lu would damage her body.
Su Yi reached out and tore off the blocker patch. It was a gel-type blocker patch, easy to remove even when dry. After being soaked with water, it was practically just resting on the skin. It came off with no effort at all.
“Don’t!”
Bian Lu actually raised a hand to stop her.
What was she thinking?
Su Yi pinched the pale pink blocker patch between her fingers, turned, and threw it into the trash can. When she turned back, a familiar milky fragrance seemed to drift faintly through the air.
This seemed to be… her pheromones?!
Her heat had not arrived yet, so why were her pheromones leaking out uncontrollably?!
Only then did she notice that Bian Lu’s ears were very red, and the entire back of her neck was flushed too.
Su Yi’s eyes widened slightly. Suddenly, she had an extremely bad premonition.
“You were in here with the lights off just now. What exactly were you doing?”
“Just… showering.”
“You showered until your pheromones leaked?”
“Who told you to suddenly come in?”
“What’s wrong with me coming in? This is my body! You, on the other hand—why are your ears red? Why is your gland red? What exactly did you do to my body?”
“It really was just an ordinary shower.”
“Do you think I’m blind, or do you think my nose doesn’t work?”
“I didn’t expect your body to have such poor self-control either.”
“What do you mean? You’re the one being shameless, and now it’s my fault?”
“Then just treat it as me being shameless. Sorry. Next time, I’ll work hard to control your body properly.”
What did that mean?
Was she saying Bian Lu’s soul was innocent, and it was all Su Yi’s body’s fault for being shameless?
Fine, huh. Expert at shifting blame?
“When I use it, my pheromones never leak for no reason. So why does it stop working when it’s you?”
“Maybe… my soul and your body haven’t adjusted to each other yet.”
“Then why have I adjusted just fine to your body?”
“You… have strong adaptability?”
What the hell kind of strong adaptability?!
Looking at Bian Lu’s impervious expression, Su Yi pressed her lips together and smiled. The curve at the corners of her mouth was absurdly sharp. The last shred of reason in her mind was barely clinging to life, so her facial management had not completely collapsed for now.
“If I find out you did anything to my body, I absolutely won’t let you off.”
“You…”
“Stop standing there acting hesitant and fake. Come out!”
She dragged Bian Lu out of the bathroom, rummaged through the drawers for underwear and pajamas, and had just turned to tell Bian Lu to close her eyes and put them on when she suddenly met Bian Lu’s strange gaze.
“What are you looking at? Does it feel strange looking at yourself too? Then hurry up and switch back with me!”
“You…”
“You what? Close your eyes! Put them on!”
After the previous two experiences of helping with clothes, this time went much more smoothly. Bian Lu cooperated throughout the process. Without needing instruction, she knew to lift her left foot, lift her right foot, and stand up. The panties were put on. The bathrobe was untied and tossed aside. The bra was fastened. Her wet hair was wrapped in a towel. Then she changed into a spring-and-autumn two-piece pajama set with long sleeves and long pants.
Perfect. Over.
The privacy problem was finally solved. Su Yi clutched her burning stomach and collapsed onto the sofa, directing Bian Lu to dry her own hair.
“The hair dryer is over there. Hurry up and dry it, in case you make my body catch a cold.”
“Oh.”
Bian Lu stood, grabbed the hair dryer, plugged it in, and started drying her hair with a whir. While drying, she even tilted her head to look at Su Yi. Amid the messy strands of hair, her slightly narrowed eyes appeared and vanished, as if they carried thousands of rivers of stars. Every blink seemed to spill light.
“You…”
“You,” again.
Always “you.”
Forget it. Su Yi would give her the chance, so she would not choke on her own words.
“What exactly do you want to say?”
“Isn’t your pheromone scent red wine? Why did it turn milky?”
Su Yi: “…”
Bian Lu: “???”
Su Yi: “…………”
Regret. Right now, she only felt regret.
If she had known, she would have let Bian Lu choke on the words!
Su Yi had originally been sprawled on the sofa. Now, after shifting, she sat upright. Crossing her legs, she elegantly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled faintly. “Aren’t you curious why I suddenly came back?”
“I’m not curious.”
“…”
“How can you… how can you not be curious?!”
“The moment you came in, you were clutching your stomach. My stomach problem must have flared up. When that happens, I get cold sweats, tremble all over, and my face turns really ugly. The police at the detention center must have been startled and hurriedly sent you to the hospital. You’re not some important criminal, so there was no need to waste police manpower guarding you specifically. So you took advantage of no one watching and slipped out of the hospital to come back. But I advise you to hurry back. After all, you’re still within the detention period. If you get caught, the detention time might be extended.”
Su Yi: “…”
How boring.
Bian Lu asked again, “So why is your pheromone scent milky? Isn’t it supposed to be red wine?”
Su Yi: “…”
What “so”?
So what?
Didn’t she think this transition had absolutely no logical connection? Also, was there no way around this topic?
Su Yi said, “I’m warning you. You’re not allowed to talk nonsense about this outside.”
“Talk nonsense about what? The milky scent? Don’t worry, I’m not that bored.”
Bian Lu finished drying her hair, put down the hair dryer, and turned to leave.
Su Yi frowned. “Where are you going?”
“To drink milk.”
“Hm?”
“Your milky scent is too fragrant. I suddenly want to drink milk.”
Su Yi had evidence to suspect that this woman was doing it on purpose. She was mocking her for having pheromones that were too weak!
Other omegas could be soft and weak, but she could not.
With a cold expression, Su Yi said, “Do you think you’re very funny? Stop acting cheeky!”
“I’m not.”
“If you’re not, then why are you smiling? Ever since I came back, you’ve been smiling nonstop!”
“I’m used to it. When I talk, I want to smile.”
“Are you trying to imply that I’m funny? So what if my pheromones smell like milk? How much better is your grassy scent?”
“Mine is Longjing.”
“Longjing? Green tea? A green tea omega paired with green tea pheromones. What a perfect match.”
“Yours doesn’t really match. You’re usually pretty fierce. Red wine suits you quite well. Milk is a little out of place.”
How did she manage to slip in something that angered Su Yi with every sentence?!
Su Yi was so furious she nearly had a heart attack on the spot, while Bian Lu continued walking out as if nothing had happened.
“What are you doing?!”
“Didn’t I say? Drinking milk.”
Su Yi: “…………”
Had everything she had just said gone completely to waste?!
“Go sleep downstairs. You’re not allowed back up!”
Bian Lu went downstairs, leaving Su Yi sitting alone on the sofa, sulking. Although the IV had made her stomach feel a little better, recovering from an illness was like drawing out silk thread. The doctor had refused to give her painkillers, saying they would irritate her stomach. Her stomach had already been hurting, and after all that anger, it hurt even more.
She did not know what was wrong with Bian Lu. She was still so young, yet she had such severe stomach problems. If one did not know better, they would think she had been abused from childhood to adulthood.
Her stomach hurt terribly. She still needed an IV tomorrow. Going back to the hospital was the best choice.
But she disliked hospitals. She always felt there were germs everywhere. Besides, she was not at ease leaving Bian Lu alone. She kept worrying that Bian Lu would mess around with her body.
Forget it.
She should sleep.
After lying in the hospital for half the night, she felt as if her whole body was unclean. Forcing herself through her fatigue, she closed her eyes and took a shower, barely changed into a nightgown, and then collapsed face-down on the bed.
Who knew how much time passed before she drifted into a hazy sleep and heard knocking on the door.
“Su Yi? Are you asleep?”
Her sleepiness was heavy, and she did not want to move.
Asleep, asleep. Hurry up and get lost.
“I’m coming in?”
Oh. Mm?
You’re not allowed in!
She snapped her eyes open in alarm. Bian Lu had already pushed the door open and entered, holding a small bowl.
“What are you doing?”
“There aren’t any oyster mushrooms at home, only some millet, so I cooked millet porridge. Drink a little. Your stomach will feel better. Tomorrow, once I buy oyster mushrooms, I’ll make you oyster mushroom millet porridge.”
Su Yi’s gaze cooled.
“Isn’t porridge usually sweet? Why did you mention oyster mushroom millet porridge? How do you know I like savory porridge?”
“I guessed.”
“How are you so good at guessing? You guessed I couldn’t cook, and now you guessed I like savory food.”
Bian Lu walked to the bedside and placed the bowl on the nightstand. The soft yellow millet porridge steamed lightly, its rice fragrance filling the air. Just smelling it seemed to make Su Yi’s stomach feel a little better by reflex.
But she would not drink it.
Absolutely not.
She refused to be led around by the nose by Bian Lu!
Bian Lu smiled. “I also guessed that you’d be willing to drink the porridge while listening to me explain why I pulled out the car key, and how we can switch back.”
She absolutely would not drink it.
Absolutely—
Su Yi: “…”
Motherf— Fine. She would drink it!
