Hearing Xia Lingyu’s words, Xiao Luo’s peach blossom eyes curved, like a fox who got its way. She said, “Professor, are you confessing to me?”
Xia Lingyu nodded, a hint of softness flashing in her eyes, as she said, “I like you.”
For some reason, from the first moment she saw Xiao Luo, she found she couldn’t look away. In the days that followed, every time she interacted with Xiao Luo, she couldn’t help but feel happy, wanting to completely possess Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo frowned and said, “Professor, you have no sense of romance. Why didn’t you find a romantic place to confess? Why here, of all places…”
Xia Lingyu didn’t quite follow her train of thought. She thought for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, “Well, what kind of place do you like?”
Xiao Luo leaned close to her ear and said, “Wasn’t the rainy night just now very romantic? If the professor had confessed to me in the rain, we could have driven to a secluded spot, gone to the back seat, and the professor, wearing silicone finger cots, could have pleasured me…”
After this string of words, Xia Lingyu’s heart surged. A trace of desire flickered in her deep eyes, her neck grew slightly hot, and her pheromones once again involuntarily leaked out.
Looking at Xiao Luo’s delicate brows and eyes, she reached out her fingers to Xiao Luo’s gland…
In the end, she closed her eyes, suppressed this restless desire, held Xiao Luo, and said, “Alright, I’ll satisfy you in everything.”
Such a clingy little temptress. But no matter what, she liked her.
They were all lovey-dovey in the corridor. Just then, Old Madam Xiao came out and saw this scene. She was still a bit displeased, her expression not looking too good, and she said in a deep voice, “This is the study. Can you two mind your manners a little?”
Xiao Luo looked up and glanced at Old Madam Xiao, saying, “Mom, sorry about that. We’ll go to my room, then.”
Xia Lingyu also nodded politely and humbly at Old Madam Xiao, then, still holding Xiao Luo in that embrace, carried her off to the room.
Old Madam Xiao watched their retreating figures and muttered under her breath, “Shameless, the both of them.”
But there was still a trace of a smile in her eyes. She thought to herself that if Xiao Luo had to undergo a second differentiation into an omega, it was good that she could adjust her mindset in time and like alphas.
She was indeed getting on in years, and found it somewhat hard to accept Xiao Luo being in an OO relationship or an AA relationship.
But now she had come around. As long as Xiao Luo liked them, it was fine.
Besides, this Professor Xia had some real skills, and it looked like she genuinely liked Xiao Luo.
As soon as she thought of Xia Lingyu’s performance in the study just now, Old Madam Xiao’s face fell. She, an S-class alpha herself, had actually been suppressed by that woman’s pheromones…
The two of them entered the room. As soon as the door closed, Xiao Luo wrapped her arms around Xia Lingyu’s head and started kissing her passionately.
At first, Xiao Luo took the lead, but soon she became the passive one. Her little tongue was entangled by the professor’s, and the fiery passion made her feel somewhat breathless.
Xiao Luo suddenly smelled that orchid fragrance again. The originally light orchid scent had become as rich and intense as full-bodied wine. She took a sniff, and her head felt dizzy and fuzzy. Both sides of her fair cheeks flushed a rosy pink.
This wouldn’t do. Xiao Luo did her best to push Xia Lingyu away, then her body went limp and she collapsed onto Xia Lingyu.
“Sorry,” Xia Lingyu’s voice carried a captivating huskiness as she continued, “I almost forgot your gland hasn’t fully healed yet. You can’t get too emotionally stirred.”
She herself had become aroused, though, releasing too many pheromones. This was highly stimulating for Xiao Luo’s gland.
“It’s okay… but I’m so dizzy now. Professor, hold me.” Xiao Luo’s voice was soft and limp.
Xia Lingyu felt a surge of tender pity. She carried her to the bed to rest.
“Professor.” Xiao Luo still clung to Xia Lingyu and wouldn’t let go, hugging her arm as she said, “I want you to sleep with me from now on, okay?”
Xia Lingyu thought for a moment, smiled, and said, “Alright, I won’t leave tonight.”
As usual, after Xia Lingyu finished treating Xiao Luo’s gland, she prepared to stay overnight in this room.
Before sleeping, the two of them kissed and cuddled again, being all mushy for a while. Only then did Xiao Luo cover herself with the blanket and lie down obediently.
The person beside her had long fallen into a deep sleep, but Xia Lingyu couldn’t sleep. Even now, her brain was still in a state of excitement over everything that had happened.
The next morning, when Xiao Luo woke up, she found no one beside her. She got out of bed and dashed toward the bathroom, bumping right into Xia Lingyu, who had just finished showering.
“Professor?” Xiao Luo looked up. Before her was a woman wrapped only in a bath towel, her fair skin dotted with water droplets. Xia Lingyu’s hair was still wet and sticking to her shoulders, making Xiao Luo’s heart stir restlessly.
“Did you hurt yourself?” Xia Lingyu lowered her gaze, her face showing some concern.
“It’s fine.” Xiao Luo smiled slightly and said, “So you were taking a shower?”
Xia Lingyu had dark circles under her eyes, clearly having not slept well the night before. Still, she smiled good-naturedly and said, “What’s wrong? Did I wake you?”
“No, I usually wake up around this time…” She looked Xia Lingyu up and down.
Xia Lingyu felt a little uncomfortable and asked, “What is it?”
Last night, she’d been too excited to sleep, so she’d gotten up in the morning and taken a cold shower to cool her ardor.
“The professor looks so beautiful after a shower. But you came out without wiping yourself dry. Do you want me to help?” Without waiting for an answer, Xiao Luo tugged her into the bathroom, pulled off the bath towel, and helped Xia Lingyu dry her body and blow-dry her hair.
This time, Xiao Luo got to cop quite a few feels, but Xia Lingyu just smiled through it all and said nothing.
After they changed clothes, the two came downstairs, just as breakfast was being served below.
Old Madam Xiao had thoughtfully asked for an extra set of bowls and chopsticks, saying, “Professor Xia, come eat with us.”
She already saw Doctor Xia as Xiao Luo’s future wife—family.
Xia Lingyu gave Old Madam Xiao a polite smile and said, “Thank you, Madam.”
Liu Xuan and Xiao Mu, who were beside them, seemed to sense something. With Old Madam Xiao showing this attitude toward Professor Xia, could it be she approved of her being with Xiao Luo?
Thinking of this, their expressions both turned sour.
Liu Xuan glared at Xia Lingyu, recalling how this person had retorted at her in the hospital last time. Her impression of Xia Lingyu worsened yet again.
Sure enough, annoying people flock together.
The transmigrated woman, Xiao Qing, took a few extra glances at Xia Lingyu. She recalled the plot about Xia Lingyu in the original novel. In the original, Xia Lingyu was a minor villainous supporting character. Although her medical skills were superb, she had no bearing of a doctor and nearly caused the female lead’s death.
So Xiao Qing also gave Xia Lingyu a gloomy glance, a flash of dislike in her eyes.
Xiao Luo didn’t like the atmosphere here, so she said to Old Madam Xiao, “Mom, we’re going out on a date. We won’t eat here.”
Then she took Xia Lingyu’s hand and walked out the door.
“Professor, once I’ve recovered, I’ll move out and live with you.”
Xia Lingyu patted her head and smiled, “Alright, we’ll move out and live together.”
She had already bought an apartment. When the time came, she and Xiao Luo would move in together, and no one would be allowed to disturb their world of two.
But for now, the date was the priority. Xia Lingyu said, “I know a Western restaurant. Want to try it?”
…
The transmigrated woman ate while looking at her phone, getting food crumbs all over the table.
Old Madam Xiao watched her demeanor and couldn’t help but say, “Can’t you eat properly?”
Xiao Qing shot her an impatient glance, lowered her head and looked at her phone again. Seeing a message from her assistant, she abruptly dropped her bowl and chopsticks and stood up. “I’m full!” Then she ran thump-thump-thump up the stairs.
“You’re full from eating so little?” Liu Xuan was somewhat worried about her daughter’s health; she was so skinny now.
But by the time she spoke up, Xiao Qing had already gone upstairs, returned to her room, and slammed the door shut with a “Bang—”.
Old Madam Xiao said coldly, “Three months in detention, and she comes back without any table manners, sitting all slovenly, her words and actions so crude. I wonder if she picked up these bad habits from the detention center.”
This time, Liu Xuan didn’t talk back. She was also a bit worried about Xiao Qing, afraid she’d picked up bad habits.
Thinking of this, she thought of that damned Leng Youran again. If it weren’t for her, how could Qingqing have been detained for three months?
Liu Xuan instantly lost her appetite too. “I’m full as well. I want to go out for a walk. Mom, Xiao Mu, take your time eating.”
With that, she went upstairs, planning to dress up nicely and then head out to settle the score with that bitch.
Xia Lingyu and Xiao Luo were on their date, the atmosphere romantic.
But just then, the System announced again: 【Mission Triggered – Liu Xuan is heading out to find trouble with Leng Youran. Please stop this behavior.】
The smile on Xiao Luo’s face slowly faded. Xia Lingyu sensitively detected her change in mood and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Sorry, Professor. I have some urgent matter I need to take care of,” Xiao Luo said, her face apologetic.
Although Xia Lingyu felt a little disappointed, she still smiled understandingly and said, “What urgent matter? Do you need me to come with you?”
“If you put it that way, sure. Then let’s go together.”
Xiao Luo agreed to go together, which made Xia Lingyu’s mood lighten a little.
…
Ever since Liu Xuan had caught Leng Youran at the headquarters building last time, Leng Youran had resigned. She submitted countless résumés, only to be rejected one by one.
Thus, she guessed that all of this was the Xiao family’s power working against her, making her lose her job.
However, Leng Youran didn’t lose heart. Since she couldn’t find a job, she’d just rent a storefront and open her own studio.
At that moment, she was in the studio painting the walls when a group of aggressive people kicked the door open and barged in.
Leng Youran was startled. Turning around, she saw it was the noblewoman from last time, with a few big, burly bodyguards behind her. Each of them looked at her with ill intentions, their manner overbearing.
Her eyelid twitched. She said, “What do you want?”
“What do we want?” Liu Xuan sneered as she looked at the newly renovated studio. “Trash this place for me.”
So the bodyguards closed the door and began maliciously damaging everything inside. The just-installed lamps, electrical extension cords, and paint and coatings were splattered all over the floor and walls. In less than a minute, the renovated studio was left in complete chaos.
Seeing this scene, Leng Youran’s face turned livid with anger. She glared furiously at Liu Xuan and said, “Madam, just what have I done to offend you?”
Liu Xuan leisurely wiped her sparkling nails and said, “My daughter was detained for three months because of you. You vixen, you still think you’re innocent?”
Leng Youran was taken aback for a moment, then raised her eyes and looked straight at Liu Xuan, standing her ground. “Madam, I already went to the police station to post bail. It was because I helped you that she was only detained for three months. Otherwise, not even ten years in prison would see her released…”
“Slap—” Liu Xuan struck her hard across the face, knocking Leng Youran to the ground.
