From Trashy A to the Heiress’s Little Son-in-Law After the Idol Competition (GL, ABO) - Chapter 97

That evening, Xiao Yanjin absentmindedly applied lotion to Ji Yunuo.

“Ah Jin,” Ji Yunuo called out, wrapping her arms around Xiao Yanjin’s neck from behind.

“Hmm?” Xiao Yanjin kissed her fingers in response.

“Do you remember not long ago when you kept pestering me for kisses?” Ji Yunuo pressed her lips against the back of Xiao Yanjin’s neck, her gaze lingering on the still-flat scent gland. “You said it had been months, and your body was malfunctioning.”

Xiao Yanjin chuckled. Though she had grown accustomed to it and the craving wasn’t as intense now, there were still moments when the longing crept in.

She held Ji Yunuo’s hand, her eyes fixed solely on her wife, memorizing every curve of her smile.

“Only because you bit my scent gland to fix it,” Xiao Yanjin said, her eyes brimming with contentment. “You must’ve been even more pent-up than me.”

Ji Yunuo didn’t reply—instead, she captured Xiao Yanjin’s lips in a fierce kiss.

What began as gentle licks soon deepened into something more—entwined, fused, inseparable.

Feeling the Omega’s intense reaction, Xiao Yanjin immediately lifted her into her arms.

“Take me to the piano room,” Ji Yunuo murmured against her shoulder, breath uneven. “I want to go there with you.”

When Xiao Yanjin carried her inside, she finally understood why the small bed had been placed there—it was nearly identical to the one in their original bedroom.

Gently, she laid her pregnant Omega down.

Then she pulled her close, nuzzling affectionately against her.

Ji Yunuo looped her arms around Xiao Yanjin’s neck and kissed her.

“Jiejie…”

“The doctor said this period is the safest,” Ji Yunuo whispered shyly, her fingers tracing patterns over Xiao Yanjin’s chest. “Ah Jin, aren’t you in your rut? I want to make you feel good.”

“Jiejie.” Xiao Yanjin’s smile was one of pure delight.

She certainly wouldn’t waste her wife’s thoughtful arrangement.

Her skillful touch left Ji Yunuo breathless.

Fingers tangled in Xiao Yanjin’s hair, Ji Yunuo gasped and tightened her grip.

The Alpha adored this expression—it filled her with boundless joy.

“Jiejie,” Xiao Yanjin grinned, obedient as a puppy. “Seems like you really couldn’t hold back.”

Her lips tasted like cream, her gaze clouded with something inscrutable.

Ji Yunuo averted her eyes, remembering their wildest days—during the May holiday.

Back then, her Alpha wife had murmured sweet promises against her skin, swearing she’d be gentle. But once the floodgates opened, there was no stopping her.

Sometimes, when things got too intense, Ji Yunuo wanted to scold her. Yet the moment Xiao Yanjin apologized, her heart would soften.

And that softness only encouraged the Alpha to push further.

She lost count of how many times she was marked, how many rounds they went.

Hours blurred together until all she knew was Xiao Yanjin’s smug grin and breathless declaration: “I can still go.”

Finally, the Alpha collapsed onto Ji Yunuo’s stomach, panting as her fingers traced smooth skin.

“So flat,” she murmured. “Jiejie… will we really have a child?”

Now, Xiao Yanjin’s hand rested on the slight swell of Ji Yunuo’s belly, her smile widening.

“Jiejie, we’re finally going to have a baby.”

At dawn, birdsong filled the air as Xiao Yanjin watched her sleeping wife, pressing a tender kiss to her collarbone.

The alarm rang. Ji Yunuo groaned and clung tighter.

“Stay with me a little longer.”

“Okay.”

Xiao Yanjin picked up her phone and called Jiang Nan.

Jiang Nan was jolted awake, the Omega in her arms stirring slightly.

“Hello?” Jiang Nan replied softly.

“Long time no see—how’s the relationship progressing?” Xiao Yanjin asked with a laugh.

Jiang Nan glanced down at the Omega in her arms again.

This time, the Omega was truly awake.

Lan Yuanning turned her gaze toward the windowsill, where white orchids bloomed, their fragrance indistinguishable from the orchid pheromones lingering in the room—sweet and intoxicating.

The orchids were pure and beautiful, just like her—at least in Jiang Nan’s eyes.

Jiang Nan pressed her lips together, silent.

Unaware that the two were lying together, Xiao Yanjin urged, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Lan Yuanning suddenly gripped Jiang Nan’s arm and made a gesture.

[Sorry.]

Jiang Nan’s heart skipped a beat.

She watched as Lan Yuanning got up and headed to the bathroom.

The phone slipped from Jiang Nan’s hand.

“Hello?”

Receiving no response, Xiao Yanjin sighed and hung up.

She decided to go check on them.

“Let’s go see Yuanning, okay?” Xiao Yanjin murmured into her Omega’s ear, leaning close.

Ji Yunuo stretched, opening her eyes to the sight of her little Alpha smiling down at her.

That smile was like the first light of dawn—warm and comforting.

“Okay,” she replied, looping her arms around Xiao Yanjin’s neck and nuzzling against her temple.

Just as Xiao Yanjin was enjoying the playful intimacy of their intertwined fingers, another call came through, disrupting the moment.

“Justice?” Xiao Yanjin answered.

Shi Zhengyi’s voice trembled with tears. “He Rou wants to move out.”

Xiao Yanjin rubbed her temples—just one thing after another.

…

Xiao Yanjin and Ji Yunuo arrived at their shared apartment.

Shi Zhengyi’s eyes were red, while He Rou sat silently on the couch, clearly sulking.

The scene felt oddly familiar to Xiao Yanjin.

Ah, right—it was like those quarrels between married couples, where the wife was teary-eyed and the husband sat in stubborn silence.

“What’s going on? Talk it out properly,” Xiao Yanjin said, playing the mediator.

Shi Zhengyi pouted. “He Rou won’t admit she likes me.”

“Who said I like you?” He Rou snapped, her expression flustered.

Here’s what had happened.

Ever since moving in together, the two had grown closer—even if they didn’t realize it themselves.

That day, Shi Zhengyi had rolled off the bed in her sleep.

(Though whether it was truly an accident remained debatable.)

As luck would have it, she landed right on He Rou’s bed. Before He Rou could react, Shi Zhengyi, still half-asleep, had draped herself over her, tangling them together—likely mistaking her for a pillow or blanket.

Shi Zhengyi twitched her lips, about to speak, when He Rou’s delicate fingers brushed clumsily against her face, sending her pulse racing.

The lingering scent on those slender fingers wrapped around her senses, refusing to fade. Shi Zhengyi’s eyes widened as she watched those graceful fingers skim over her lips.

Her throat tightened.

A strange heat stirred in her chest.

Shi Zhengyi turned her head slightly—He Rou’s lips were full and rosy, like ripe cherries, tempting and sweet.

It had been a long time since she’d seen her this close.

Shi Zhengyi’s gaze softened, rare and tender. She leaned in, closer and closer—

Until she could see the faint down on He Rou’s cheeks.

Then He Rou jolted awake.

Their eyes met.

“Ah—!”

Xiao Yanjin snapped her fingers: “So He Rou thinks Justice Sister is trying to take advantage of her, feels completely disrespected, and is furious enough to break ties and move out.”

He Rou was still in her pajamas, her hair uncombed, glaring fiercely at Shi Zhengyi.

“But that’s not the key point.”

“What is then?”

He Rou said, “After I screamed, she was afraid others might hear me, so she covered my mouth.”

Xiao Yanjin went “Oh,” “Isn’t that normal? Your screams are really loud, it wouldn’t be good to wake everyone up.”

Ji Yunuo glared at her: “She means she used her mouth to cover it.”

Huh? Wasn’t that a forced kiss?

“Justice Sister, I never thought you could be so despicable inside! What a disgrace to your name. From now on, don’t call yourself Shi Zhengyi (Time Justice), call yourself Shi Weisuo (Time Pervert)! How could you kiss someone without their consent? Unlike me—I’d at least ask first.” After complaining, Xiao Yanjin turned to Ji Yunuo with a smile: “Sister, don’t you think I’m right?”

Ji Yunuo: “…”

Shi Zhengyi’s face turned bright red as she apologized to He Rou: “He Rou, I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to. It’s just that your voice was too loud, and I was afraid it would disturb others. Please don’t be angry, okay? I promise I won’t do it again.”

Xiao Yanjin chattered on: “Actually, I’m curious—why is Justice Sister, an alpha, sleeping on the bed while He Rou’s on the floor?”

“A-Jin, let’s go out first.” Ji Yunuo tugged her hand. If they stayed any longer, Shi Zhengyi might lose her temper.

He Rou’s face flushed. Truth be told, she had enjoyed spending time with Shi Zhengyi these days, but something had been bothering her.

“You took my first kiss,” she grumbled resentfully.

“I just lost mine too,” Shi Zhengyi said sheepishly.

“Cut the crap. Someone like you must’ve dated a lot in school. ‘Just lost’ my foot.” He Rou snorted.

“I really never dated before.” Why did everyone assume she was experienced? “Back then, I was dumb and thought being single made me noble. Forget dating—I didn’t even have anyone I liked. Who knew I’d meet you…”

Shi Zhengyi, unusually awkward, blushed: “Only then did I realize you’re my destined one. It’s rare for me to feel this way about someone.”

He Rou was stunned. Shi Zhengyi usually acted careless and unreliable, but her confession just now carried the weight of a life-and-death bond.

“Do you really like me that much?”

“Like? It’s way more than that.” Shi Zhengyi stared at her feet. “I’m someone who loves money, yet I’ve turned down jobs just because I missed you. Seeing how thin you are, I wish I could cook every delicacy for you—even though I’m a terrible cook. I just can’t stand you being so skinny.”

As she spoke,

He Rou’s eyes reddened, on the verge of tears.

“Wait, why are you crying?” Shi Zhengyi asked nervously.

“I’m a beta.” He Rou wiped her tears and cried out, “Before differentiation, I always hoped I’d be an Omega, but I turned out to be a beta.”

“What’s wrong with being a beta?” Shi Zhengyi asked, confused.

“Because betas can’t release pheromones, I can only smell yours without being affected like an Omega. More importantly, I can’t give you the pleasure of pheromones.” He Rou lowered her head, fingers clutching her clothes tightly, looking like a helpless little girl.

“I’m ashamed of being a beta. I never dared to date anyone. Once I confessed to an alpha I liked, but he said, ‘What can you offer when you can’t even release pheromones?’ I… I felt completely humiliated. Since then, I’ve always believed betas can’t release pheromones, and alphas would inevitably look down on me. To avoid your disdain, I had to distance myself.”

He Rou wiped her tears as she spoke haltingly, finally voicing the pain of being unable to release pheromones—the one thing she’d refused to mention since her differentiation.

“Silly girl.” Shi Zhengyi felt nothing but heartache. Despite this vibrant girl’s bold and fiery dance performances, she hid such unspoken insecurities.

Shi Zhengyi held her tightly and said solemnly, “I like you simply because you’re He Rou. Whether you’re an Omega or a beta, I’d like you just the same. Pheromones don’t matter. I’ve been single all these years—when have I ever needed them? And besides…”

Shi Zhengyi gazed at He Rou, memorizing the softness of her beta form.

Summoning courage, she leaned in and kissed her.

“And it’s not like you can’t bite my gland.”

He Rou immediately flushed red and whimpered, “I don’t want to bite that lump of flesh!”

“Then I’ll bite you,” Shi Zhengyi teased, tickling her.

“I don’t even have one!”

Watching the two playfully bicker before embracing intimately, Xiao Yanjin and Ji Yunuo couldn’t help but smile like doting elders—they were finally together.

Though Xiao Yanjin had something to say: without pheromones, biting a gland was useless—it was just like biting a lump of flesh. Clearly, the inexperienced Zhengyi had no idea.
