After Losing My Memory, I Went After My Archenemy - Chapter 31
【Shock】Bai Chuchu, one of the four prestigious ladies of Linlu, was actually criminally detained?
Tonight, a post with this title exploded on the campus forum. All the students were surfing the net and gossiping in it, but the post was deleted shortly after. When appealing, the administrator informed them that the school did not want the incident to escalate and affect the school’s reputation.
Meanwhile, after settling the mess with Bai Chuchu, Xia Rou finally had time to focus on the matter with Lin Xi.
She thought that since she had already confessed face-to-face, there was no need to hide anymore.
[Xia Rou]: You still care about me deep down, otherwise you wouldn’t have helped me investigate that incident today.
[Xia Rou]: You said we are not suitable for each other. I want to hear the reason.
[Xia Rou]: I know you can see all this. That afternoon at school, didn’t you reply to me quite quickly?
[Xia Rou]: You are deliberately pretending not to pay attention to me now! [Pouting with anger emoji]
In the dimly lit bedroom, only a bedside lamp was on. The mushroom-shaped little thing emitted a faint and hazy light.
Lin Xi leaned against the headboard alone, repeatedly turning her phone screen on and off, on and off, doing one action over and over again.
Suddenly, she got an incoming call. She hesitated for a second before answering it and bringing it to her ear.
“What is it?”
Chi Xiao: “I heard Xia Rou confessed to you and you rejected her?”
“How did you know?”
Lin Xi lowered her eyes, and her other hand resting on her chest unconsciously clenched into a fist.
“I ran into her when I went to look for you at school this afternoon. She told me. But that’s not important. What’s important is what you’re thinking, Lin, old friend. Leaving aside the fact that she’s such a high-quality Omega, the key is that she’s 100% compatible with your pheromones. You rejected that too?”
The person on the other end of the phone spoke quite excitedly, expressing her dissatisfaction.
“…There are some things you don’t understand. Don’t worry about it.”
Chi Xiao was a little irritated after hearing this, “Fine, just keep being arrogant. Don’t regret it when someone else snatches her away.”
The next day, Xia Rou got up early to do her hair and makeup, and chose the sexiest dress in her walk-in closet. Knowing that Lin Xi would definitely go to the club this morning, she deliberately went to the club to wander around.
However, she didn’t know if Lin Xi noticed her, but the eyes of everyone else in the club were certainly glued to her.
“Chi Xiao, I’ve done what you said, but Lin Xi is still as unresponsive as ever. And she seems to really dislike me looking like this. She told me not to wear this kind of thing to the club again.”
Xia Rou was quite distressed as she called the other party for help.
Chi Xiao: “Alphas are very possessive creatures. You’re wearing something sexy in front of so many people, she’s definitely uncomfortable. Plan A didn’t work, so let’s implement Plan B.”
“But I’m worried I won’t have the opportunity…”
“The opportunity will come next week,” Chi Xiao interrupted her. “Next Friday is Lin Xi’s uncle’s birthday. I’ll be there that day, and I’ll help you then.”
“But what if Plan B also fails?” Xia Rou was a little worried.
“There’s no such ‘what if,’ unless Lin Xi has been sterilized! What I mean is, no Alpha can resist this move. Believe that you can do it.”
Next Friday…
Xia Rou opened the calendar and counted on her fingers.
When Friday came, Chi Xiao and Shen Xuan arrived at Lin Xi’s uncle’s house early.
“Didn’t I tell you to invite your classmates to come home for dinner? How come it’s only Chi Xiao and Shen Xuan?” Zhou Mingde complained slightly.
“Isn’t it enough to have them accompany me to celebrate your birthday?” Lin Xi looked at the man with a fake smile.
“Enough, more than enough, haha.”
Just as the words fell, Xia Rou arrived.
“Sorry I’m late. Happy Birthday, Uncle. This is the birthday gift I brought for you. I hope you like it.”
Xia Rou went up to him in a familiar manner, completely ignoring Lin Xi, who was slightly stunned by surprise next to her.
Zhou Mingde beamed with joy and laughed without hesitation, “Now everyone is finally here. Everyone’s here.”
Lin Xi glanced helplessly at Chi Xiao. It was most likely her who spilled the beans.
“Wait, there’s one more important thing I haven’t taken out yet.” Zhou Mingde got up and left for a moment. When he returned, he had a bottle of wine in his hand.
“Isn’t this your most precious vintage?” Lin Xi’s implication was that he was surprisingly willing to take it out today.
“It’s my birthday today, and I’m happy, so of course it has to be paired with the best wine,”
Zhou Mingde generously poured a full glass for everyone present. When it was Xia Rou’s turn, Lin Xi subconsciously made a gesture to stop him, but naturally, she didn’t succeed.
“This wine has a high alcohol content. Don’t push yourself.”
Lin Xi looked up at Xia Rou, who was sitting across from her.
Perhaps it was the resentment accumulated from being ignored by her recently, or perhaps it was to build up the courage for the upcoming Plan B, Xia Rou picked up the wine glass without thinking and took a big gulp, drinking more than half a glass.
“Oh, girl, this wine is strong. You shouldn’t drink it like that,” Zhou Mingde looked a bit frightened.
“I’m fine, Uncle,” Xia Rou wiped the corner of her mouth and smiled, but was secretly suffering in her heart, It’s so spicy…
When they were almost done eating, Chi Xiao, who had communicated with Shen Xuan beforehand, gave her a look. The two of them helped the drunk Zhou Mingde up and said, “Uncle Zhou, I saw something I like in your shop. How about a discount for me?”
“No problem, which one did you take a fancy to? I’ll take you to see it!” Zhou Mingde staggered and was about to go downstairs.
After the three of them went downstairs, only Lin Xi and Xia Rou were left on the second floor in the blink of an eye.
Realizing the time had come, Xia Rou encouraged herself in her heart, stood up resolutely, and proactively grabbed Lin Xi’s arm, walking towards her bedroom.
“What are you doing?”
“I hope you stop avoiding me.”
With that, Xia Rou tore off the suppression patch on the back of her neck right in front of her, and then, without saying a word, she untied her dress straps. The dress instantly dropped from her shoulders.
The Omega’s pheromones quickly filled the entire room, and Lin Xi felt as if she was held in place by some force and couldn’t move.
“Put your clothes on.”
The Alpha’s breathing became heavy and rapid.
“I won’t.”
Lin Xi took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and tilted her head slightly, trying to calm down the internal heat and the surging tide of impulses within her body. The next second, she spoke in a hoarse voice: “I’m counting to three, for the last time. Put your clothes on and get out.”
“Three…”
Before she could say the second number, Xia Rou asked, greatly hurt, “Lin Xi, I’m like this, and you still don’t feel anything? Am I really that worthless in your eyes?”
“Two…” Lin Xi still didn’t look at her.
Greatly defeated, Xia Rou quickly put on her clothes and applied a new suppression patch.
“You’re going too far.” The Omega dropped this sentence and ran out crying.
Lin Xi’s fingers twitched. Her body wanted to move forward but suddenly stopped.
In the antique shop downstairs, Shen Xuan and Chi Xiao tried every possible way to keep Lin Xi’s uncle occupied, but unexpectedly saw Xia Rou running out by herself, crying all the way.
“Geez, what’s going on?” Chi Xiao was stunned.
“Let’s go up and see,” Shen Xuan said.
Zhou Mingde, who was left behind: “…”
Facing everyone’s questions, Lin Xi just remained silent and even chased everyone out of her room.
“Everyone has left now, niece. What happened? Can you open the door?”
Zhou Mingde, who was half-sober, stood at the door and asked.
“I’m fine.”
Lin Xi spoke with difficulty. In fact, she was already in agony all over, and the high temperature threatened to consume her.
She pulled open the drawer, took out the suppressor injections, jabbed herself in the arm three times in a row, and then picked up the water cup with her trembling hands and took a few pills, quietly waiting for this long night to pass.
