After the System Called Me Mom, My Arch-Nemesis Omega Fell for Me - Chapter 30

Medical University Clinical Dean’s Office

“Dean Jian, Jian Cheng and Tian You haven’t come to class for two days. Do you know why?”

Dean Jian looked up. “I don’t. What’s going on? Go check the surveillance.”

The surveillance footage showed Tian You leaving the school gates two days ago, destination unknown. As for Jian Cheng’s whereabouts, the footage showed him leaving the school gates with a girl.

Dean Jian pointed at the girl in the frame. “Is that girl Jiang Mingyue?”

“Yes, Jiang Mingyue hasn’t come to school for two days either. Jian Cheng has been pursuing her. However, on the school forums, someone said Jiang Mingyue is involved with Lu Lingzhi, the ‘campus belle’ of Capital University. Jiang Mingyue was exposed as the daughter of the Jiang Hotel Group; the Jiangs have recently been acquiring the Cloud Peak Hot Spring Hotel. As for Lu Lingzhi, her online profile is very clean.”

Dean Jian’s phone rang. He was informed that all four of them were at the Cloud Peak Hot Spring Hotel.

All four had visited Presidential Suite 2020.

I hope it isn’t what I think it is, he thought.

Cloud Peak Hot Spring Hotel Presidential Suite 2020

Chang Xi sat on the sofa, her long lashes lowered, her gaze fixed on the giant movie screen on the wall. Light and shadow shifted across her exquisite profile, and she exuded an air of effortless charm.

Xie Fuyun sat beside her, holding an Apple Pencil in her well-defined fingers.

She was focused on sketching on an iPad screen.

Chang Xi’s slightly curled chestnut hair fell across her neck. Her bathrobe collar had inadvertently slipped, revealing a hint of collarbone, and her legs were crossed, sketched stroke by stroke.

“Wait until Lu Er and Mingyue wake up. I’ll take them out to eat. You deal with those two in the bathroom.” Her red lips curved slightly, delivering a nonchalant judgment. “Give them both a major demerit. There’s no need to expel them.”

Xie Fuyun’s pen paused. She looked up at her. “Dr. Chang, do you own the Medical University? You beat them into pulp, and now you want to give them major demerits? You’re a teacher, after all, a teacher hitting students. If this gets out, even if you’re in the right, you’ll end up smelling like trouble.”

Chang Xi gave an indifferent hum, her posture both haughty and stubborn.

It was as if she were saying: So what? What can they do? Anyone who dares bully my Lu Bao, I’ll fight them to the death.

“Understood,” Xie Fuyun whispered, glancing at the red bottomed, diamond encrusted stilettos.

In the entire process, Chang Xi went 1v2 and ultimately secured the MVP.

Just then, Lu Er’s WeChat avatar popped up.

In the latest message, Lu Er said she discovered Xie Fuyun didn’t love her and didn’t like her as a daughter.

How could Xie Fuyun not love her?

She loved her quite a lot, in fact.

[Chang Xi: Lu Bao, President Xie loves you the most.]

After sending it, she felt it was inappropriate and immediately retracted it.

The kid was going through a rebellious phase, how had Xie Fuyun provoked her right under her nose?

[Chang Xi: What’s wrong?]

The two chatted for a while.

Seeing how serious she was, Xie Fuyun knew she was chatting with Lu Er again. Every time she talked to Lu Er, she looked like she was enjoying it. Who knew what those two were whispering about her behind her back?

Suddenly, two sticky, sweet cries of “Little Mommy” came through. The coquettishness was bone-deep, almost dripping with honey.

Xie Fuyun took a sharp breath and rubbed her arms as if she had goosebumps. She looked at Chang Xi with a frown of feigned disgust. “Listen to that! Is she calling her mother, or is she meowing like a cat?”

The corners of Chang Xi’s lips curled up happily, a gentle glow rippling in her eyes. “I think it’s quite cute.”

She shifted from reclining to a kneeling position and leaned in close to Xie Fuyun. Her bathrobe tie loosened slightly with the movement, revealing a glimpse of a mesmerizing view. She carried the faint scent of a bath and stared directly at Xie Fuyun with a hint of playful provocation: “So what? I didn’t give birth to her.”

Xie Fuyun then saw the WeChat message Chang Xi sent.

[Chang Xi: I don’t like her either, who could live with her.]

Xie Fuyun was angry and needed Chang Xi to coax her.

“President Xie, are you angry at us mother and daughter?” Chang Xi’s gaze lingered on Xie Fuyun’s face, her eyes innocent yet flirtatious. “I was just soothing the child. The poor kid is bleeding again. I’m just following her lead. I’m coaxing her.” She reached out and poked a certain someone’s face. “She came to complain because you don’t show enough concern. She cares about you, she’s just been a proud little princess since she was a kid and can’t bring herself to lose face. You should give in to her a little.”

Xie Fuyun’s pen left a sudden jagged mark on the screen. She put the pen down, her earlobes quietly flushing red.

“Just say some soft words to her on WeChat, coax her. She’s easy to please. When she was little, she loved it when you held her. Between the ages of two and five, we brought her to the capital. We climbed the Great Wall, went to the Forbidden City, the National Museum, and the Aquarium.”

“She loved sika deer, and we even raised a little one for her. Think about that time, we were a happy family of three. You were teaching her the ways of business and resource integration, and she’d mispronounce it as ‘worshipping eating peaches’ and ‘spiders will do.’”

Chang Xi spoke eloquently; she truly loved that period of time.

Watching Lu Er grow from a tiny thing, hugging and kissing the two of them.

She always saw Lu Er through a rose-colored filter.

Xie Fuyun pursed her lips. “…”

Chang Xi tilted her chin up and said firmly, “Repeat after me: Lu Bao is the most important person to me, and I love Lu Bao the most.”

Xie Fuyun lowered her eyes bashfully. “…I love Lu Bao the most, she is my most important person.”

“So good~~” Chang Xi handed her the phone. “Send her a voice message, say that sentence to her.”

However…

Two WeChat messages from Lu Er arrived.

Xie Fuyun looked at their chat history and almost died of anger.

Lu Er was certainly capable.

“Break up with her,” “take half the assets,” and even the outrageous, “Old-fashioned, almost forty, arrange 99 young hotties.” She was even planning to have her family’s legal team sue her so she could leave with Chang Xi.

This arrogance was nowhere near the weakness of someone who just had a nosebleed.

It clearly screamed: I’m a fighter, I’m asking for a beating, bleh-bleh-bleh.

Knock, knock, knock.

The sound of knocking broke the subtle atmosphere in the suite.

Xie Fuyun got up to open the door. Standing outside was Dean Jian from the Medical University.

Dean Jian immediately spotted Chang Xi on the sofa. She was in a bathrobe, her long hair draped lazily. She was poking a piece of honeydew melon with a fruit fork.

Her posture was entirely that of the mistress of the suite.

“Dean Jian?” Chang Xi looked up. Seeing who it was, she showed no surprise or embarrassment. Instead, she offered a shallow smile and pointed casually to a single-seat sofa. “A rare guest. Sit.”

Dean Jian looked at the scene, then at Xie Fuyun in casual loungewear. The air still held a faint, lingering sense of ambiguity.

These two, one a star professor of the Finance Department at Capital University and a CEO, the other the Dean of the Psychology School at Medical University and a Chief Director at the General Hospital opening a room early in the morning?!

He coughed dryly, his face full of disapproval. “You two… you are professors, dean-level… this… the influence…” His meaning was clear. Of course, before he could finish, Xie Fuyun interrupted him.

Even though Xie Fuyun was annoyed by Lu Er’s antics and wanted to lock her up for a scolding, she wouldn’t let an outsider bully her family.

She hadn’t even settled the score with the Jians yet.

Xie Fuyun closed the door. “Dean Jian, Chang Xi and I are a legitimate couple. Does becoming a teacher mean we aren’t allowed to have basic desires? Which eye saw us doing something scandalous? Dean Jian, you’re quite a pro at labeling people.”

Xie Fuyun was angry first thing in the morning?

Dean Jian’s heart sank as a powerful pheromone pressure approached him.

He glanced over. Xie Fuyun’s deep blue pupils snapped open, eerie and magnificent.

When those blue eyes lit up, it meant she was truly furious.

I should watch my words. Don’t provoke her.

As it turned out, the rumors about the Taiyu Group’s succession standards were true.

The so-called standard was that every successor had to be a top-tier Alpha or Omega (AO) and possess a pair of azure blue pupils.

The blue pupils were a unique genetic trait of the Xie family.

The owner of these eyes possessed superhuman visual perception and overwhelming spiritual pressure.

Ever wondered why Xie Fuyun and Chang Xi had been in a relationship for nineteen years and never married? On one hand, Chang Xi wasn’t a top-tier Omega, she was only A-level so she couldn’t produce top-tier AO offspring. On the other hand, she was an orphan from an ordinary background.

She and Xie Fuyun were as different as clouds and mud.

Even if Chang Xi was stunningly beautiful, rivaling any socialite in the capital, and held positions like Dean of Psychology and Chief Director, high-level positions within the system.

In the eyes of the Xie family’s “old money” aristocracy, if you weren’t “qualified,” you weren’t qualified. After all, over a hundred years ago, the Xies were actual royalty.

Chang Xi was qualified to be Xie Fuyun’s confidante, canary, or mistress. But entering the family? Forget it.

Xie Fuyun had left in a rage with her, and the relationship had only recently thawed slightly.

“Fuyun, Dean Jian has known us for many years. It’s normal for people to have such thoughts.” Chang Xi gave Xie Fuyun a reproachful look, but there was no actual blame in her eyes only a soft, indulgent smile.

She turned to Dean Jian and said with a sigh, “Dean Jian has misunderstood. Fuyun and I are here with our child. The child’s grades aren’t great. Don’t look at how dignified Fuyun is in front of her students at Capital University, when she deals with our little treasure, sigh…”

“Oh, a child?…” Dean Jian’s eyes nearly popped out of his head. “A CHILD!!!”

A child? When did that happen? Who gave birth?!

Chang Xi was someone who couldn’t stand even a grain of sand in her eye.

Could it be that they had the child together?

Chang Xi had actually had a child out of wedlock? Well, they were both approaching forty, having a child wasn’t exactly a massive scandal.

The child must be thirteen or fourteen years old. They had kept it hidden so well.

Thinking about how Xie Fuyun was glorious in public but driven crazy by a child in private.

No wonder her eyes turned blue, she’s been driven mad by that child and had to use spiritual suppression. Xie Fuyun, even you have a day like this.

Chang Xi said, “Yes, raising a child is so difficult. Dean Jian, thank you for making the trip. Since you’re here to see me, is there something on your mind?”

Dean Jian followed her lead and replied, “Oh, I’m also here looking for a child…”

As soon as those words left his mouth, two pairs of eyes instantly focused on him.

“…Cough! No! I mean, three students from our college have gone missing. Specifically, Tian You, Jian Cheng, and Jiang Mingyue. These three were last seen here.”

Dean Jian was a bit fidgety. This involved Medical University students booking a room, and it even implicated a student from the Capital University Finance Department.

As it happened, Xie Fuyun was a professor in that very department.

He had a feeling the other party knew something.

Wait a second.

He had checked the check-in records, the person registered here was Lu Lingzhi.

Thump! Thump!

Two dull thudding sounds came from the direction of the bathroom, followed by the bathroom door being swung open violently from the inside.

Dean Jian’s gaze instantly froze.

There stood his nephew, Jian Cheng, and his student, Tian You. Both were tied up as tightly as Zongzi, looking utterly pathetic. Even more jarring was that both had been slapped twice. There were marks on their necks, and their clothes were torn to shreds.

Inside the entire suite, only Dean Jian gasped in shock, rendered speechless.

Xie Fuyun and Chang Xi, however, acted exactly as expected. One held a glass and was adding ice, while the other sat cross-legged eating fruit.

There was a reason for this.

A doubt swirled in his mind: why were these four able to enter this room? Where did the original guest go?

Just as Dean Jian was about to ask for the reason.

“Uncle, save me! It was this woman and that woman. One slapped me, and the other knocked me out!” Seeing his savior, Jian Cheng immediately shrieked, pointing spitefully at Chang Xi and Xie Fuyun.

His uncle was here, he had backing now.

“Dean Jian, help! She’s the one who hit me!” Tian You hurriedly chimed in.

Looking at the injuries on his nephew’s face, Dean Jian’s brow furrowed. A mix of anger and embarrassment welled up within him as he scolded sharply: “How dare you speak to your teachers like that? Where are your manners? This is Dean Chang from our school’s School of Psychology. And that is a professor from Capital University, as well as President Xie.”

He used their titles to warn Jian Cheng and Tian You to watch their tongues.

Chang Xi slowly stood up from the sofa, radiating a piercing chill. She looked down at the two on the floor. “You two have quite the nerve. How did you get in here?”

The words “How did you get in” hit Jian Cheng and Tian You like a ton of bricks. Their faces instantly turned ashen, and their eyes darted around guiltily.

How did they get in?

Of course, Tian You had used a master keycard from the hotel. As for Jian Cheng, he had directly taken the spare key for room 2020.
