Chapter 95: Inferiority Tsundere Canary Alpha

Whether Jiang Li’s words had sunk in or not, Li Huan spent the rest of the journey lying quietly on her lap. She rubbed obediently against Jiang Li’s wrist but made no other movements.

By the time they returned to the Jiang Mansion, Li Si was already waiting at the entrance. Her expression was grave as she stared at the slowly decelerating car.

Before the vehicle had even come to a full stop, Li Si strode forward several quick steps. The pure black silk shirt she wore accentuated her tall, straight figure, making her seem even more slender.

She should have been lounging at home, finally enjoying a vacation she hadn’t taken in ages. But a single medical report had shattered that leisurely peace.

She had received Jiang Li’s call on her way to the mansion.

Now, she also knew there was an S-level Alpha in susceptible period aboard that car.

Li Si yanked open the car door in a few swift strides. The intimate scene before her sent her blood rushing to her head, and she suddenly feared her career might end right then and there.

An Alpha already deep in susceptible period, cozied up to such a close Omega—what came next was all too easy to imagine.

Yet Li Si furrowed her brows sternly. She scrutinized Jiang Li’s pale cheeks with serious concern, her worry deepening.

“Jiang Li, before you and this Alpha go through her susceptible period together, there’s something I must tell you.”

Li Si stressed, “I must.”

Her stance blocking the door was resolute, as if the matter were gravely serious. Jiang Li recalled the sharp pain in her heart from earlier—her body still remembered that intense agony.

Meeting Li Si’s earnest gaze, Jiang Li nodded softly. “I have some questions for you too.”

With Li Si’s help, Jiang Li carried Li Huan straight to her own room. After all, the familiar scent of her pheromones lingered there, which should provide Li Huan some temporary relief.

“Can’t you just inject an Alpha inhibitor casually?” Jiang Li asked.

She watched as Li Si plunged a syringe of liquid into Li Huan’s arm. Jiang Li didn’t recognize the substance and could only guess at what it was.

Li Si tucked the empty syringe back into her medical kit and shook her head, refuting Jiang Li’s assumption. “I just gave her a temporary sedative. Don’t worry—it’s harmless to her.”

Jiang Li nodded to show she’d heard, then moved to the bedside. She gazed at Li Huan’s flushed cheeks, thought for a moment, and grabbed the air conditioner remote from nearby. She pressed a few buttons to lower the room’s temperature by several degrees.

That should make the Alpha feel a bit cooler, at least.

“Alright, let’s talk somewhere else—before your Alpha wakes up fully and starts throwing a fit looking for you.” Li Si hefted her medical kit. The woman wore silver-rimmed glasses, her lips pressed into a thin line.

Her words jogged Jiang Li’s memory, though she figured it wouldn’t be an issue. After all, Li Huan was lying right there on her bed—how much trouble could she cause?

Still, Jiang Li left a note for Li Huan, taping it to the headboard. She didn’t want the Alpha waking up alone and freaking out. After all, an Alpha in susceptible period reportedly felt unsafe to the extreme without her.

They closed the door quietly and headed straight to the study.

The moment they entered, Jiang Li cut to the chase. “There’s something wrong with my body, isn’t there?”

Li Si’s urgency, combined with that sudden, unbearable pain in her chest earlier, made it hard for Jiang Li not to suspect an issue with her health.

Seeing how directly Jiang Li had asked, Li Si nodded, her brows tight with anxiety and gravity. She confirmed it, pulling a report from her kit and placing it on the desk.

“Yes. This is your recent physical exam report. There were already abnormal changes in your heart back then. After a follow-up check, we can say for certain—”

“You cannot engage in any strenuous activity.”

Afraid she hadn’t been clear enough, Li Si thought of the girl lying on Jiang Li’s bed, now fully immersed in her S-level Alpha susceptible period. She spelled it out bluntly.

“In other words, you need to stay far away from that girl. At the very least, until her susceptible period passes.”

Jiang Li’s expression barely changed. She tapped calmly on the marble desktop. “What would happen to her susceptible period without me?”

Her direct gaze bore into Li Si with oppressive force, demanding an answer. Li Si awkwardly averted her eyes.

A flicker of hesitation crossed her own gaze. Should she tell Jiang Li the truth?

The truth was, without Jiang Li’s help, the girl inside faced a real risk of failing her susceptible period—with a high chance of it costing her life.

On the other hand, if she told Jiang Li the full story, the Eldest Miss would undoubtedly choose to help the girl anyway, gambling with her own slim odds of survival.

Even working for one of the city’s top capitalists, Li Si didn’t consider herself so callous as to discard someone more fragile as expendable.

So she turned back, voice firm. “She has over an eighty percent chance of becoming a failed Alpha—with her life in danger.”

Jiang Li echoed, “Her life in danger?”

An Omega’s heat only brought suffering. Even without an Alpha’s help, it merely eroded the body bit by bit amid endless desire.

Why were the consequences for an Alpha’s susceptible period so dire?

Li Si knew Jiang Li’s confusion and explained, “Ordinary Alphas don’t face this, but the girl inside—if I remember right—is the S-level Alpha you specifically selected. The higher rank means different risks.”

“After an S-level Alpha successfully passes her first susceptible period, all her abilities undergo a qualitative leap. But correspondingly, enduring the susceptible period itself brings inhuman hardships.”

Jiang Li listened intently, occasionally voicing her questions. Her expression gradually softened. Li Si watched, pausing her explanations after one more sentence.

She understood Jiang Li’s choice, but there was one more thing she had to make clear.

Li Si set her medical kit on the desk and retrieved the physical report from the other side. She pointed sternly at the bold, capitalized text.

“As your doctor, I have to tell you responsibly—”

“If you approach that girl in your current condition, and she successfully passes her susceptible period, your body will collapse.” Li Si eyed Jiang Li leaning against the desk and emphasized, “It definitely will.”

Her lips pressed tight, Li Si’s expression was solemn—far from her usual playful demeanor. Jiang Li knew the weight of her words.

However.

“My mind is made up.” Her knuckles flexed as Jiang Li folded the report into a sleek paper airplane. With ceremonial flair, she huffed on it at lip level, then flung it confidently.

Good! A promising sign!

Watching the paper plane lodge perfectly between the light fixtures, Jiang Li smiled in satisfaction and headed out. The door clicked shut behind her.

“Aaaah! That damn family doctor! Which Eldest Miss throws away her life like this?!”

Li Si clawed dramatically at her hair, turning her neat locks into a bird’s nest. Her earlier seriousness vanished.

She’d guessed Jiang Li’s decision well in advance, yet it still infuriated her.

Fuming inwardly, Li Si snatched her phone and fired off several tips and precautions to Jiang Li.

Helping an S-level Alpha through susceptible period was a monumental task already—let alone with Jiang Li’s current health…

If she didn’t share these little tricks, Li Si figured her days as this laid-back family doctor were truly numbered.

Jiang Li, just returning to her room, heard her phone ping. Thinking it might be her teacher asking something, she pulled it out.

What the hell?!

Her brows shot up. The contact labeled Li Si kept popping up with messages—each spicier than the last, dancing right on the edge of her limits.

-For the sake of your health, you must follow this!!!

Watching the typing indicator flicker, Li Si knew her texts were rather explicit. But now! This was a last resort!

-Got it. You stay home for the next few days.

After replying to Li Si, Jiang Li arranged leave for both of them on their behalves. Only then did she toss her phone aside with relief and sit on the bed’s edge, gaze drifting over Li Huan.

Her round trip hadn’t taken long. The sedative Li Si had administered was likely still working, so Li Huan remained deeply asleep, eyes closed.

Her usually cool, downturned brows looked adorably docile in slumber. Jiang Li’s lips curved up. Leaning in with interest, she trailed her fingertip gently down that smooth cheek.

She thought, perhaps no one knew that Li Huan—the aloof, unapproachable type of Alpha at school, the one who seemed not to be trifled with—could be so soft and in susceptible period, or in private moments.

She would bury her head in an Omega’s skirt hem, nuzzle playfully inside, retract all her aggression before drawing near…

Making the Omega gradually respond first, hmm?

Her thoughts halted as Jiang Li’s fingertip tapped Li Huan’s high, straight nose tip—pert and upright, not exactly gentle-looking.

“Mmm. So fragrant.”

Her finger pad slid lower, and the moment it brushed those lips, they automatically drew it in. Hearing the soft praise by her ear, Jiang Li tensed her wrist against the bed. She glanced up—Li Huan’s eyes stayed shut.

It was like sucking on jelly, but Jiang Li sensed something else entirely. Li Huan even circled her teeth around the pad.

No way did this look like jelly-sucking.

Pop!

Yanking her finger free produced a crisp sound. Jiang Li’s ear tips flushed. She’d had to tug hard, but hadn’t expected such a tight bite.

The fingertip glistened with saliva, now laced with Li Huan’s pheromones.

The cedar scent wafting from it snapped Jiang Li back to reality. It built her trust in Li Si’s tips a bit—maybe they weren’t so useless after all.

If saliva on her finger picked up pheromones, then… surely elsewhere would be the same, or even stronger.

Jiang Li stood, placing the note by Li Huan’s ear. Watching those long lashes quiver faintly as she rose, a hint of amusement slid into her eyes.

What sharp senses—like a little dog.

“Come find me. Find me, find your Omega, find the pheromones you crave, and then…”

Her breathing paused by Li Huan’s ear. Jiang Li stepped back, kneeling lightly by the bed. She nipped the earlobe, breath weaving intimately. “Do whatever you want to her.”

Her tongue curled, the short phrase dragging slowly across its scarlet surface. As Jiang Li spoke, Li Huan’s trembling lashes shook violently.

As if she’d awaken from slumber any second.

Delighted by how readily Li Huan reacted to her words, Jiang Li smiled wickedly. No one disliked having their allure so easily affirmed.

Finally, her finger pad brushed that flushed cheek, sweeping away nonexistent dust. Her lips pressed lightly to the forehead. “A prepaid kiss for today’s little dog. You’ll owe me one later.”

Rising with a smile, Jiang Li turned and left.

She had already decided how their first time together would go.

Ambiance—or rather, the erotic mood—was essential.

Huff~

Her palm pressed against the door, beginning to tremble uncontrollably. On the way here, during her bath just now…

Li Huan’s mind and awareness spiraled utterly beyond her control.

What was Jiang Li doing right now? What would she wear? What would they do together soon…

Wave after wave, flush-inducing images flooded her brain.

Fresh from her bath, her cheeks burned brighter than the heart Jiang Li had drawn—even more vivid.

She swallowed hard. Her heart pounded wildly, refusing to settle. As she pushed open the door, it soared straight to the heavens.

The door swung wide. Taking in the sight inside froze her breath. Her eyes stared blankly at Jiang Li.

For a moment, she wondered if she’d entered the wrong room.

Only when Jiang Li spoke did she fully confirm: this was indeed her Eldest Miss.

“What? Don’t I look good?” Jiang Li asked slowly, a smile playing on her lips.

Li Huan shook her head frantically. Her heart beat solely for the sight before her.

Pure white fabric hugged a perfect figure—every inch exquisitely refined—yet it barely covered the key spots. Clusters of rose lace adorned the exposed snowy skin, desire spilling forth.

Revealed yet teasing, covered yet not, half-hidden in breathtaking allure.

Jiang Li savored Li Huan’s expression. Sitting at the piano, she bent her eyes in a smile and quietly released her pheromones. Silken strands drifted toward Li Huan.

Her soft lips parted seductively. Jiang Li leaned forward against the piano, beckoning.

“Then—”

“Come unwrap me, bit by bit.”
