I’m Addicted to your Pheromones from the First Moment We Met - Chapter 9

In less than an hour, Yu Zhouyao had confirmed one thing: Miss Mu was definitely no ordinary person.

First, Mu Mingyue possessed unique pheromones and powerful mental strength; her combat prowess was certainly not low. Second, as an Alpha who had lost control during heat, she appeared to have more vitality than Yu Zhouyao herself her constitution was staggering. Third, and most importantly, Yu Zhouyao had absolutely no idea how to deal with her.

It was not that they could not find common ground; on the contrary, they chatted quite enthusiastically. Yu Zhouyao was simply powerless against Mu Mingyue’s conversational tactics. If she was not careful for even a second, she would find herself being led by the nose.

Fortunately, after finishing the nutrient solution, Miss Mu finally decided to settle down. She stopped pushing the suggestive topic from earlier and instead dragged Yu Zhouyao into playing with their devices.

At Mu Mingyue’s suggestion, they exchanged contact information and began chatting digitally while sitting right next to each other.

[A Round Moon]: [God of Wealth]: Hello. [A Round Moon]: Hehe, chatting with Zhouyao. So happy. [God of Wealth]: Mm.

They remained immersed in their screens for a while until Dr. Pei knocked and called Mu Mingyue out for a follow-up exam.

“Mingyue, the family doctor is here. Come out for a checkup.”

Mu Mingyue frowned, clearly unwilling to leave. She drew out her words in a pouty whine. “Cousin.”

Dr. Pei remained unmoved. “Mingyue, this is a necessary checkup.”

“I do not want to—”

“Your aunt is worried about you and told me to watch over you until the exam is finished.”

Mu Mingyue wilted. “Fine. Since it is Mother’s order, I will go.” She threw herself into Dr. Pei’s arms, continuing to act spoiled. “Then Cousin has to help me. I am afraid of pain; you have to tell those doctors and nurses to be gentle.”

Dr. Pei gently stroked the ends of her hair to comfort her. “Alright, alright, whatever Mingyue wants. The family doctors will certainly listen to you.”

“Mmhmm.” Mu Mingyue put on a jacket and stood obediently behind Dr. Pei.

Seeing this, Yu Zhouyao was secretly rejoicing, thinking she would finally get some peace and quiet. As if reading her mind, Dr. Pei added, “Yu Zhouyao, you come too.”

Yu Zhouyao blinked. “Ah, I have to go as well?”

Mu Mingyue was delighted. “Great! Zhouyao, let’s go get our checkups together.”

Dr. Pei glanced at them both and led them out of the ward. Two little “tails” followed behind her: one reluctant Yu Zhouyao and one very happy Mu Mingyue.

Once they reached the office, Pei Xian pointed to a partition and said, “Alright, Mingyue, go inside for your exam.”

Yu Zhouyao was surprised. “Wait, Dr. Pei, you aren’t the one doing her checkup?”

Mu Mingyue pouted. “No. If Cousin were in charge, I would be overjoyed.” She walked over to Yu Zhouyao and gave her head a gentle pat. “Zhouyao, be good. I am going in for my exam, so you have to stay well-behaved too.”

Yu Zhouyao froze. She had not expected such an intimate gesture. By the time she snapped out of it, Mu Mingyue had already disappeared behind the partition.

“She…” Yu Zhouyao started to speak but trailed off.

Across from her, Dr. Pei was watching her with great interest.

“Dr. Pei, why are you looking at me like that?” Yu Zhouyao felt a bit apprehensive, fearing she really was being targeted as a medical lab rat.

“In just a few hours, you and Mingyue have become this close?”

“…” Yu Zhouyao swallowed the complaints she wanted to air and remained silent.

Dr. Pei did not tease her further. “Alright, time is short. Let’s do your follow-up. First, let’s verify your basic information. Yu Zhouyao, age 17, from M419. First gender: Female. Second gender: Alpha. Pheromones: Unknown. Comprehensive rating: S+. Any issues?”

“Yes.” Yu Zhouyao thought for a moment before asking directly, “Dr. Pei, you told me the other day that I was SS rank.”

Pei Xian placed her device on the desk and looked at her. “I am reading from your medical record. As for whether the record reflects the actual situation, that requires further verification. What you want to ask is why I hid your true rating, right?”

Yu Zhouyao nodded.

Pei Xian gave a light laugh. “Is that so hard to understand? Has Mingyue muddled your brain?”

That… actually makes sense, Yu Zhouyao thought. It was like a sudden enlightenment. Meeting the monster Mu Mingyue in the hospital—Yu Zhouyao exhausted all efforts but could not resist.

“The Mu family did indeed ask me to suppress the news. You saved Mingyue; the Mu family must show proper courtesy to her benefactor.”

Yu Zhouyao gave a quiet “oh” and then asked, “Dr. Pei, I have a basic question. Is the Mu family very powerful?”

Pei Xian’s voice went up an octave. “You do not know the Mu family?”

Yu Zhouyao shook her head honestly. “I really do not. I just got here.”

Dr. Pei looked slightly speechless. “The Mu family is the premier family of Aurora. The current head of the family is the Commander-in-Chief of the Thirteenth Army—she is Mu Mingyue’s paternal aunt. The Commander is unmarried and has no children. Mingyue’s mother passed away; her other mother—the one I call Aunt—works in Planet Aurora’s administrative system. Mu Mingyue is their only daughter and the primary focus of the Mu family’s next generation.”

Dr. Pei tapped the desk. “Alright, don’t waste my time with such idiotic questions. A quick search on your device would have told you that.”

Yu Zhouyao maintained her smile and bowed her head. “Understood, Dr. Pei.”

Pei Xian continued, “Even if the Mu family had not instructed me, I would still be personally interested in your data.”

“Um…?”

“The accompanying doctors told me your pheromones are very special. As an Alpha, your pheromones actually fall within the Omega spectrum. It is the first time I have seen a case like yours.”

“Oh.”

“What I am curious about is the report from the scene. Your pheromones successfully comforted Mingyue. For two Alphas to have such harmonious pheromone blending… Yu Zhouyao, how did you do it?”

Yu Zhouyao shook her head. “I do not know.”

Dr. Pei squinted, her gaze turning slightly dangerous.

Yu Zhouyao spread her hands. “Doctor, I truly do not know. My pheromones have smelled like this since I was little.”

“Since you were little? Not since your awakening?”

Yu Zhouyao repeated firmly, “Since I was little.”

“Have you had similar experiences before?”

“What kind of experiences?”

Dr. Pei let out a tsk. “Pheromone blending between two Alphas.”

“Oh, you mean that? Let me think… no, never.”

“Is that so?” Dr. Pei scribbled something quickly onto the medical record. Suddenly, she asked, “Is orange soda tasty?”

Yu Zhouyao shrank back instinctively. She could not help but think: Are all the women in this Mu family so terrifying?

“Doctor, a patient’s pheromones are a matter of personal privacy,” Yu Zhouyao emphasized.

“Heh.” Dr. Pei brought the conversation back on track. “Since your pheromones are so unique, my personal advice is that you had better not reveal this to anyone else. If word gets out that two Alphas can achieve pheromone blending, it will cause an absolute earthquake in society.”

Yu Zhouyao nodded, showing her understanding.

“As for you,” Pei Xian paused, “for the sake of your health, you are to come to me for regular follow ups.” She turned her head, revealing a cryptic smile. “Otherwise, the people at the transportation base will find out your personal information immediately.”

Yu Zhouyao could not help but shiver. “Understood, Dr. Pei.”

Threatened by a doctor. Although Yu Zhouyao hated being threatened, the current situation was overwhelming, and her opponent was a physician. She had to bow her head. After all, doctors were the one group you never wanted to cross. If you offended them, you would not even know how you died.

Yu Zhouyao sighed silently. After a while, Mu Mingyue emerged from the partition.

“I am all done!” she said, full of energy. “Eh? Cousin, Zhouyao, why do you both look so drained?” She leaned over to Yu Zhouyao and tapped her forehead. “Vitality restored!”

Yu Zhouyao blinked.

“Wow, the spell worked! Yay! Zhouyao, you are back to life!” Mu Mingyue said happily.

“Mm.”

“What is wrong? Was the diagnosis bad?” Mu Mingyue asked with concern. “Cousin, is Zhouyao’s health not good?”

Dr. Pei’s voice was flat. “She is perfectly fine. She can be discharged immediately.”

“Mmhmm! Uncle Zhou also said my condition is much better. I should be able to be discharged with Yu Zhouyao.”

Dr. Pei nodded in agreement.

“Hooray! Discharge, discharge!” The young miss of the Mu family pushed Yu Zhouyao out of the doctor’s office.

Back in the ward, Mu Mingyue pulled out her device and handed it to Yu Zhouyao. “Look, look! Zhouyao, do you know you are famous on the forum?!”

Just seeing the title made Yu Zhouyao feel the pressure mounting.

[New Gossip! New student breaks through pheromone pressure to give out-of-control Alpha a suppressor! (Hot)]

She clicked it and found the post already had over a thousand replies.

1L: On a dark and windy day (actually daytime), in the pheromone-exploding Dawn campus, an Alpha lost control. It was a dangerous situation. Just like a princess waiting for her prince, she too met her guardian knight. A woman from the far east broke through countless dangers to administer a suppressor, saving the princess. Is this a blessing of fate or a curse of a cult classic? Welcome to the latest installment of “Dawn’s Romantic Fairytale.”

2L: OP, speak like a human.

3L: Summary: A new student braved the danger and gave an out-of-control Alpha a suppressor.

114L: To add, rumors say the Alpha who lost control is the eldest daughter of the Mu family.

115L: Is this gossip for real?

116L: 114L, rest easy. It is real. I asked the new student.

120L: Where did she get a suppressor?

998L: Quick update. A student just overheard the Academic Affairs teachers discussing it. The new student seems to be named Yu Zhouyao. Not sure about the exact characters yet.

1300L: You mean this Yu student braved Miss Mu’s SS-rank mental strength, did a sliding dash into the building, gave the injection, and successfully enrolled?

1303L: Could it be that the new student is also SS-rank?

1305L: Are there two SS-ranks in this year’s batch? Our school hit the jackpot!

Yu Zhouyao finished browsing the post at high speed, her heart full of complex emotions. This complexity was not directed at the post itself, but rather triggered by Mu Mingyue.

“Zhouyao, you are famous before you even set foot on campus,” Mu Mingyue said with a beaming smile.

“Haha… our classmates just love gossip before school starts.” Yu Zhouyao did not really care what people said about her. She just could not understand how Mu Mingyue, as the other person involved, could talk about this so casually.

Mu Mingyue leaned in close and whispered, “Zhouyao, they are saying I am the princess and you are my knight.”

Yu Zhouyao’s ears turned red.

This Miss Mu is truly terrifying.
