After Setting Me Up With My Ex, The Aloof Alpha Regrets It - Chapter 27.2

Chapter 27.2

After sending the message, the two of them stood up and saw two familiar figures walking through the door.

Zhu Yunqi and Lan Yang.

Lan Yang was slightly shorter than Zhu Yunqi, but she was wearing high heels, which made her a little taller than Zhu Yunqi. Lan Yang was dressed in her usual glamorous and sexy style, with blue eyeshadow, a blue sequin eyeliner, and a full head of hair. She wore a pair of gold-rimmed, frameless glasses for decoration. She wore a purple silk dress with a close-fitting skirt. Because of her powerful and confident aura, she didn’t look cheap at all. She looked like a mermaid who lured passing fishing boats with her beautiful singing.

Zhu Yunqi, on the other hand, was dressed in her usual cool, ascetic style. A sleeveless, high-necked crop top, a thin silver necklace as an accessory, dark blue high-waisted jeans, and a pair of black leather combat boots. Her hair was also in her usual updo, with a steel hairpin neatly holding her long hair in place. Even in a high-necked top that would easily make one’s neck look short, her shoulders and neck were still as elegant and beautiful as a swan’s.

Zhu Yunqi was the most suitable person Shi Li had ever seen for this kind of hairstyle. Her head shape was simply too perfect. Her eyebrows and eyes were set close together, paired with her gray eyes and a chiseled jawline, which gave her an exotic, mixed-race look.

Everyone in the restaurant turned to look at them.

Shi Li was surprised as to why they were here now.

Lan Yang walked gracefully to their table. “My dearest Shi Li, I knew I would find you here.”

“Find me?” Shi Li pointed to herself. She wasn’t close to Lan Yang at all. But after the kidnapping incident last time, she knew that Lan Yang was a straightforward person and no longer felt the initial dislike she had for her.

“Yes. I don’t have your contact information, and my dear captain wouldn’t give it to me.”

Lan Yang gnashed her teeth when she said “dear captain.”

Zhu Yunqi, standing behind Lan Yang, gave Shi Li a look of helplessness.

“I have something I want to ask you for help with,” Lan Yang said with a cheeky smile, sitting down next to the table. She saw a piece of untouched fruit pizza on a plate and picked it up to eat. “I’m twenty-five years old, and I don’t have time for a relationship. My family has been hounding me to find an Omega to marry. I wanted to ask if you know any suitable Omegas you could introduce me to? My qualities, as you can see.”

As she spoke, she deliberately showed off her breathtaking figure.

Zhu Yunqi said from the side, “Shi Li, just take it as a joke. She’s bored because she has nothing to do lately.”

Then she introduced Lan Yang to Tang Yingchi, as an introduction.

“Tang Yingchi, this is Lan Yang. Lan as in orchid, and Yang as in rippling.”

“Lan Yang, this is Shi Li’s good friend Tang Yingchi. Tang as in Tang Dynasty, Ying as in reflecting the sun, Chi as in pond.”

Tang Yingchi glanced at Lan Yang, thinking her outfit was indecent, even more so than the Alpha models in nightclubs.

What Omega could handle her walking around dressed like this all day? They would die young from excessive blood loss.

Zhu Yunqi was much more pleasant to look at. They were both Alphas, but their styles were so different. One was from heaven, the other from the bottom of the sea.

Shi Li seriously thought about the people she knew. Unfortunately, she didn’t have many friends and only knew a few Omegas. She knew more Betas.

“Does it have to be an Omega? Would you consider a Beta?”

“Only an Omega. Betas don’t have pheromones. I like Omegas who can be marked.”

Lan Yang said, patting Zhu Yunqi’s hand. “Right, Captain Zhu?”

Zhu Yunqi completely ignored her. She hadn’t wanted to come in the first place. Lan Yang was the one who was bored and insisted she come over, without even saying what it was for. Now she knew it was to have Shi Li set her up on a blind date.

Did she want a blind date, or did she want Shi Li as her matchmaker…

Zhu Yunqi still remembered how Lan Yang had been smitten with Shi Li at first sight on the street when she first arrived at Z3291.

Her own three-way relationship with Shi Li and Wen Yue was already complicated enough. Forcing another person, Lan Yang, into the mix would just turn it into a mess.

Zhu Yunqi gritted her teeth and said, “If you want a blind date, I can ask my sister to help you find one. She knows a lot of Omegas.”

Lan Yang looked innocent. “But I like Shi Li’s type, and birds of a feather flock together. I’m sure she has similar Omegas around her.”

As she spoke, she rested her chin on her hand, and the two mounds of white flesh on her chest gently jiggled.

Shi Li racked her brain, just about to speak, when she saw a deep red drop fall. A bright red flower bloomed on Tang Yingchi’s white skirt.

At the same time, the two Alphas across from them also smelled the distinct scent of blood.

“Yingchi, you’re having a nosebleed!”

…

Shi Li quickly took Tang Yingchi to the restroom to handle it. Zhu Yunqi went to a nearby pharmacy to buy nosebleed medicine.

After they finally got it under control, they returned to the table. Tang Yingchi looked at Lan Yang and broke down, turning her head away.

She mumbled something.

Shi Li didn’t hear it clearly and leaned closer. “What did you say?”

“I said,” Tang Yingchi said shakily, covering her nose, “can you ask her to put on a jacket?”

Suddenly, Shi Li understood the reason for her friend’s nosebleed. She didn’t want to get it, but her face instantly flushed.

Lan Yang was indeed very beautiful and seductive, but strangely, in her opinion, the neatly and fully dressed Zhu Yunqi seemed more sensual. The hidden, secret temptation beneath the fabric was more provocative than a body that was completely exposed.

Of course, she herself had never fantasized about Zhu Yunqi’s body. She was only giving an objective analysis from a designer’s perspective.

Coincidentally, she was wearing a plaid jacket today. She took it off and handed it to Lan Yang, asking her to cover her upper body.

Lan Yang put on the jacket and said excitedly, “Wow, I actually made a Beta have a nosebleed for me!”

Tang Yingchi was so angry and frustrated. “Shut up…”

Zhu Yunqi returned with a tube of medicine.

Before she could sit down, she saw that Shi Li’s jacket was now on Lan Yang.

Without thinking, she grabbed the jacket and pulled it off.

“If you’re cold, you can find your own clothes to wear. Don’t wear other people’s clothes.”

She folded the jacket on her lap. When she handed it back to Shi Li, a faint, familiar scent of lime drifted past her nose. It seemed Shi Li used this perfume often.

Lan Yang protested, “My good sir, I was forced to wear this for the sake of Ms. Tang’s health, okay?”

Tang Yingchi couldn’t take it anymore. She felt a hot liquid flowing from her nostrils. “Please, just put it on…”

Her nose was as if it was allergic to this Alpha named Lan Yang. She couldn’t even look at her for a second longer.

A damn sex bomb.

Shi Li quickly said, “It’s fine if she wears it. Zhu Yunqi, I lent it to her.”

But Zhu Yunqi’s attitude was firm. “No, an Alpha and an Omega should not be too intimate.”

Lan Yang’s head was steaming. “Captain Zhu, are you living in a feudal era? It’s just a jacket, not touching or kissing…”

Looking around, Shi Li was indeed the only one who had a jacket. Zhu Yunqi remembered there was a women’s clothing store near the pharmacy where she had bought the medicine. “Wait for me a minute.”

She strode out quickly.

Tang Yingchi covered her face and turned back.

While Zhu Yunqi was gone, Lan Yang immediately shared some gossip with Shi Li. “My dearest Shi Li, do you know why Captain Zhu agreed to come to the Star Corporation headquarters?”

“Weren’t you two together?” Shi Li’s eyes widened.

“No, no, no. I came over by myself first to find you, but then I felt it was inappropriate to find you behind Captain Zhu’s back,” Lan Yang said in a very low voice, as if afraid of being overheard, but her eyes were twinkling with uncontrollable delight. “So I just told her one thing: ‘I’m at Shi Li’s company building.’ She got here in ten minutes.”

Shi Li didn’t understand why this was something to talk about behind Zhu Yunqi’s back.

Seeing her confusion, Lan Yang shook her head in dismay. “How can you two be so dense? Captain Zhu wanted to see you.”

Shi Li offered her own perspective: “I think she wanted to keep an eye on you more.”

…

A minute later, Zhu Yunqi jogged back and threw a dark, shapeless piece of clothing at Lan Yang.

Lan Yang caught it and put it on. As she did, she complained, “What did you buy for me, Captain Zhu? It looks like a garbage bag. You didn’t just rip a garbage bag for me, did you?”

Zhu Yunqi said, “Take a closer look.”

Lan Yang put on the clothing, and it really did look like a garbage bag. Shi Li thought the clothing looked a little familiar, like something she had seen in a fashion show.

“You can’t do this to me, making me wear a garbage bag!” Lan Yang said in agony. She was about to take it off when she suddenly saw a tag on the garbage bag: “‘Eco-Lover Series’—69,998 star coins? Is this garbage bag made of gold?!”

“Put it on properly.”

“Yes, yes, yes. I love you, Captain Zhu.” Lan Yang never wanted to take this clothing off again. This awful woman was so damn rich and powerful that even if she gave her a garbage bag, she would hold it carefully.

No, this wasn’t a simple garbage bag. Lan Yang thought. When she died, she would make it her shroud. She had to die in style.

Shi Li was also speechless. Sometimes the aesthetics of luxury brands were too avant-garde, and she, as a designer, couldn’t quite understand them.

But at least Tang Yingchi could speak normally now.

Getting back to the topic of Lan Yang asking for a blind date, Shi Li couldn’t think of any suitable candidates at the moment, so she said she would keep an eye out for Lan Yang after she went back. Then, in front of Zhu Yunqi, they added each other as friends on their light brains.

Wearing the “garbage bag,” Lan Yang said sincerely, “Please, hurry. My vacation ends in a month, and then I’ll have to go back to the Black Star Belt to repair mechs, where I can’t even find a single Omega.”

Zhu Yunqi was annoyed that she was bothering Shi Li. “This is about fate. The more you push, the less likely you are to find someone.”

Shi Li smiled and tried to smooth things over. “I’ll do my best. I’ll do my best.”

Both Zhu Yunqi and Lan Yang had already had lunch. As they left the restaurant, Lan Yang was suddenly inspired and offered to take Tang Yingchi to work. Her reason was very valid: she had just made Tang Yingchi bleed with her beauty, so she had an obligation to take her to work.

Tang Yingchi didn’t refuse.

The two of them left, one after the other, leaving Zhu Yunqi and Shi Li alone.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

After a moment, Zhu Yunqi said, “How about I walk with you to your company building? My sister just asked me to buy a household robot.”
