Flash Marriage with a Seductive Beautiful Omega After Being Dumped/Having the Engagement Broken - Chapter 20

By rights, Shen Jiangxu should also have rested well today, but she just brought her laptop and locked herself in the study, to avoid affecting Bai Youxi, and to avoid being affected by her.

When Bai Youxi brought Niannian back to the small bed and was coaxing her to sleep, Shen Jiangxu took advantage of the gap while replacing her scent-blocker patch to leave the study for a bit of exercise.

Shen Jiangxu saw the slightly ajar bedroom door at a glance, walked over to look, and stood right by the door without approaching. Her cool, gray eyes gazed tenderly at Niannian sleeping peacefully in the crib, her expression seemingly emanating a sacred glow.

Bai Youxi noticed this from the corner of her eye, and her slightly hazy vision instantly brightened, quickly looking over.

Her happiness had not been completely digested with the passage of time instead, it became more pronounced. Her bright, sparkling gaze was hard to ignore. Only then did Shen Jiangxu turn her head to look at her, and in what seemed like just the blink of an eye, the softness in her expression returned to its usual coolness.

Bai Youxi didn’t notice this at all. A smile suddenly spilled from the corner of her mouth. She extended a small index finger to point at Niannian, and mouthed: “She’s asleep.”

Shen Jiangxu distinguished her words from her lip movements and nodded, then raised her hand to point at her own nape.

Bai Youxi’s smile faltered, and she quickly covered her nape. The pheromones, which had been relatively stable, suddenly surged out, causing the scent-blocker patch, which had been perfectly fine moments ago, to instantly lose its effectiveness.

Shen Jiangxu in her heat cycle was more sensitive than usual. It was only then that Bai Youxi smelled the gradually thickening sweet apricot aroma.

Was it because she had seen Shen Jiangxu?

Her face flushed instantly, and a faint blush immediately appeared. Bai Youxi’s smile became awkward, completely unprepared for such a reaction.

Shen Jiangxu didn’t linger. She gently closed the door and turned to leave.

Bai Youxi looked at the closed door, then at the sleeping Niannian, tiptoed away from the small bed, and quickly walked out barefoot.

Shen Jiangxu had been so busy that she even had lunch and dinner casually in the study. She couldn’t let her pheromones cause trouble for Shen Jiangxu.

Replacing the scent-blocker patch, using the inhibitor, Bai Youxi, holding a neutralizer, sprayed it barefoot all over the house, especially at the study door, almost causing the entire door to form condensed droplets.

Afterward, she retreated to her room, distractedly opened her phone to scroll, but still clicked into Shen Jiangxu’s chat box, gazing at the contact note at the top with a happy smile for a while, before clicking on the video Shen Jiangxu had sent.

She had saved that video immediately, but she still preferred to watch it in her chat history with Shen Jiangxu.

Even though the phone screen was much smaller than the tablet screen, the clearer image quality made the details even sharper than when she watched it on the tablet.

Those pine soot gray eyes looked past the lens at her, suddenly falling into her own eyes as if traversing time and space, so beautiful that she could barely stop herself from trembling.

However, it seemed to be different from the current Shen Jiangxu.

In the slightly blurred quality on the tablet, those eyes, whose gray color was hard to distinguish, looked no different from Shen Jiangxu’s eyes now.

But in the clear quality on the phone, those eyes possessed more brilliance than the current Shen Jiangxu’s.

The Shen Jiangxu in the video looked noticeably younger, not like a work from the past year or two. But regarding Shen Jiangxu’s more distant past, Bai Youxi only knew about that night four years ago.

It seemed, however, that it was not much different from now.

The finished video returned to its cover image. The omega, standing sideways, had a slender figure. Although she was merely standing still, she seemed to contain infinite energy, elegant and beautiful.

The pheromones from her post-cervical gland broke through the scent-blocker patch again. Bai Youxi hurriedly put down her phone to replace it.

The sweet apricot scent was mixed with a faint hint of sparkling wine. Sparkling wine itself does not have a high alcohol content, but the shallowly mixed aroma in her pheromones seemed to make her a little drunk.

This intoxication led her, later in the evening, to stand outside the study door and send a message to Shen Jiangxu.

【Can I come in?】

After a moment, Shen Jiangxu replied, 【You can.】

Bai Youxi took a deep breath and opened the door. Shen Jiangxu was sitting at the desk, and upon hearing the sound, she raised her head to look at her.

Those pine-soot gray eyes swept across her face, and she spoke directly: “Still out of control?”

Bai Youxi was momentarily stunned, her steps halting. Shen Jiangxu had already lowered her head back to the computer screen and continued, “Give me five minutes.”

This time, Bai Youxi reacted and hurriedly waved her hands, her speech rapid: “No, no, no, I’m fine, I didn’t come for that. I mean, it’s getting late, don’t you want to rest early, and…”

Bai Youxi suddenly paused for a moment, lowering her voice a few degrees, sounding somewhat guilty, “Let me give you a massage.”

Whether it’s the rut or the heat cycle, the large outflow of pheromones always brings physical discomfort. A temporary marking certainly has a great alleviating effect, but the premise is that there was no madness from the night before.

Shen Jiangxu hid it well, but traces of unreleased soreness could still be seen in her movements, persisting in a body without sufficient sleep.

Shen Jiangxu looked steadily into her eyes. Bai Youxi did not avoid her gaze.

After a moment, Shen Jiangxu closed her laptop. “Okay.”

Bai Youxi sat on the chair and waited for quite a while before Shen Jiangxu came out of the bathroom after her bath.

Shen Jiangxu was wearing a light slip-dress. The neckline of the dress was a bit low, revealing her distinct collarbone and a portion of her full, snowy bosom, making one inexplicably hesitant to look directly.

She walked straight up to Bai Youxi. “How should I do it?”

The scent of shower gel mixed with shampoo wafted over. Bai Youxi abruptly stood up, pointed to the large bed nearby, and said, “Lie on your stomach first.”

Shen Jiangxu nodded and did as she was told.

The back neckline of the slip-dress was also quite low, revealing a portion of her slender shoulder blades.

Even just lying down, the dress outlined her graceful curves, like finely carved, exquisite jade.

She had already relaxed her body, yet muscle definition was still subtly visible in various places. If she applied a little pressure, those lines would become beautiful and obvious.

Bai Youxi’s face felt a little hot. She carefully sensed the situation of the gland on her nape, felt she could likely hold out, then slipped off her slippers and knelt on the bed beside Shen Jiangxu, hesitatingly reaching out to touch that thin shoulder.

Her hands were large, her palms warm and dry. Her long knuckles kneaded the sore muscles with appropriate force. Shen Jiangxu closed her eyes in comfort.

Bai Youxi massaged downward little by little, using different techniques for different areas. With every touch, Shen Jiangxu felt the dull soreness she had barely noticed almost completely disappear.

Feeling the slight feedback beneath her hands, she couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Does it hurt?”

Shen Jiangxu, with her eyes closed, sounded slightly slow, “It’s very comfortable.”

Bai Youxi smiled silently. After a while, just when she thought Shen Jiangxu had fallen asleep, Shen Jiangxu suddenly said, “You… must be in a lot of pain.”

Bai Youxi was taken aback. She knew they weren’t talking about the same thing, and yet they were.

A temporary marking indeed had a significant alleviating effect on Shen Jiangxu, but for Bai Youxi, it was merely a drop in the bucket.

But she still shook her head with a smile, her tone light, “It doesn’t hurt, not at all.”

Shen Jiangxu did not speak.

Bai Youxi also remained silent. After she had thoroughly massaged Shen Jiangxu’s entire body, Shen Jiangxu’s breathing became smooth and even.

She sat quietly for a while. For some inexplicable reason, she leaned over and placed a kiss on that slender back.

After covering Shen Jiangxu with the blanket, Bai Youxi quietly withdrew from the room.

She did not hear the low sigh that came from the dark room.

“Feigning strength.”
