Redeeming that Beautiful, Strong, and Miserable Omega [Transmigrated into a Book] - Chapter 16

Chapter 16: The Hotel

“Wife, what are you saying?”

“We’re married. How could I possibly leave you?”

What does the female lead mean by that?

Has she discovered something?

Aside from the intimacy that happened at the hotel, this was the first time Xu Ruozhou had initiated an embrace.

A faint rose scent emanated from the Omega’s scent gland. Wen Yan’s face grew redder and redder, and the Douglas Fir pheromones in her own gland began to stir restlessly.

“Wen Yan, you…?”

Wen Yan immediately pushed the Omega away from her embrace. Her face was as red as a freshly cooked liver. Clutching the back of her neck, she bolted. “Wife, I have something I need to do!”

She burst through the villa’s front door.

The Beta servants who were working were startled by the loud noise.

“Inhibitor, inhibitor…”

Wen Yan muttered to herself, her bloodshot eyes scanning left and right. The servants had never seen her look like this; some were so frightened they dropped their tableware.

“Master, the inhibitor is in the bedroom.”

Lin Xi’s timely appearance saved Wen Yan. She scurried and stumbled into the bedroom, following the direction the black-haired maid pointed.

Pulling open the cabinet, Wen Yan found the Alpha-specific inhibitor, which was as thick as her forearm. She sighed in relief, leaning against the wall and panting heavily.

Did the female lead not pay attention in physiology class? How can an Omega go out without a pheromone patch?

Looking at the needle, which was as thick as her finger, Wen Yan couldn’t bring herself to inject it.

The female lead won’t be back for a while, so maybe I should wait?

Suddenly, a knock sounded outside the bedroom door.

Wen Yan immediately became alert and loudly asked, “Who is it?!”

“Master, it’s me.”

Hearing Lin Xi’s voice, Wen Yan’s taut nerves relaxed. She slowly unclenched her fists. “Oh, it’s you.”

“What’s the matter?”

The person outside the door was silent for a moment.

“Master, I have already dismissed the servants in the villa who might be affected. You can safely inject the inhibitor.”

The black-haired maid paused in her tone. “If you need it, I can also assist you with the injection.”

Wen Yan sighed in relief. Lin Xi was still so thoughtful.

She couldn’t precisely control her pheromones yet and was most afraid of accidentally releasing aggressive pheromones in the villa.

Although these servants were Betas, Betas still had scent glands, even if they were undeveloped.

She was worried about injuring the servants working in the Wen family.

“Come in, Lin Xi.”

Lin Xi pushed the door open and entered. Wen Yan, unable to do it herself, pushed the inhibitor on the floor toward the black-haired maid’s feet. “Thank you for your trouble.”

The black-haired maid picked up the Alpha inhibitor at her feet. The inhibitor was concealed by her large sleeve. “It’s no trouble, Master.”

“It is Lin Xi’s honor to serve you.”

The needle pierced the skin, and Wen Yan grimaced in pain.

With one-third of the dosage injected, Wen Yan felt as if she had attained enlightenment, devoid of all worldly desires.

But the hand holding the syringe seemed to continue injecting.

“Lin Xi.”

The black-haired maid’s forearm trembled slightly. “Yes, Master?”

“Do your burn scars still flare up when they encounter water?”

Lin Xi was silent for a long time. “I’ve gotten used to it.”

It wasn’t that the pain was gone, but that she had gotten used to it. Wen Yan pondered for a moment. “I should hire a doctor for the house.”

Lin Xi’s hand stopped injecting the inhibitor. Wen Yan sighed. “Since you are the housekeeper now, you shouldn’t touch the miscellaneous chores. Just let the other servants do the work.”

“If you continue to be so hands-on, your burns won’t heal anytime soon.”

“Huh?” Wen Yan turned her head slightly. “Why did you stop injecting?”

Lin Xi came back to her senses, pulled out the injection needle, and placed a cotton swab soaked in iodine on the bleeding injection site on the gland.

“Master, the inhibitor has been injected. I still need to check the renovation accounts, so I won’t stay here with you.”

Lin Xi pushed the door open and left before Wen Yan could even speak.

Why is everyone so strange?

The female lead is strange, and Lin Xi is strange too.

But this inhibitor really worked wonders.

Wen Yan pressed the cotton swab on her gland, feeling refreshed. She let out a sigh of contentment. “It feels so good not to have my brain controlled by pheromones.”

Except.

Wen Yan raised her hand and curiously touched her scent gland. “Why can’t I feel the presence of pheromones anymore?”

Ever since returning from the stable that day, Xu Ruozhou’s eyes had been strange. She would unexpectedly touch Wen Yan from time to time.

Her arm, thigh, and collarbone.

It was as if she were treating her like a mannequin. Wen Yan tightly wrapped herself in her blanket.

Is the female lead lusting after my body?

Recalling that Xu Ruozhou never spared any other Alpha an extra glance, even at the very end of the original book.

Wen Yan’s frantically beating heart quieted down.

She couldn’t let her imagination run wild anymore. Wen Yan took out the signed prenuptial agreement from the drawer under the sofa, pressing the can of iced cola against her cheek to cool down.

She reread it carefully.

“First, sleep in separate beds after marriage;

Second, act as a loving couple in public;

Third, both parties must inform the other during heat or rut periods and inject inhibitors promptly, forbidding forced marking…”

The first point was fulfilled.

The second point was excellently fulfilled.

The third point…

Wen Yan’s expression was righteous.

Facing the provocation of the ignorant, simple, weak, and pitiful Omega, she upheld the Alpha’s bottom line!!!

It was just that there were a few more bleeding holes on her scent gland.

Xu Ruozhou was truly lacking in physiological common sense. Wen Yan took out her phone and messaged the physiology tutor she had hired, asking about Xu Ruozhou’s course progress.

Unexpectedly, not long after she sent the message, a call from Xu Ruozhou came in.

Wen Yan looked confused. “Hello, wife?”

“Wen Yan, could you come over? I have something I don’t understand that I’d like to ask you about.”

“Oh, oh.” Although she didn’t understand why the female lead wouldn’t just ask the tutor directly, Wen Yan obediently headed over.

The place where Xu Ruozhou was taking classes was not far from the villa, only two or three kilometers away, at a hotel owned by the Wen Group.

Using the master key card to open the door, Wen Yan only saw an empty room. Only the whiteboard covered in black marker indicated any sign of a class having taken place.

Wen Yan searched every corner but couldn’t find Xu Ruozhou. She had no choice but to call her to ask where she was.

“Wen Yan, you’ve gone to the wrong hotel. I’m at the one next door.”

“That explains it,” Wen Yan said. She took the elevator down and walked out the main entrance of the hotel. “Turns out I went to the wrong one.”

Stepping out the main entrance, a familiar building came into view.

Wen Yan’s expression momentarily froze. The Omega’s gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. “Wen Yan, what’s wrong?”

“Oh, nothing.”

“I’m in the Presidential Suite on the 21st floor. Come find me.”

Aaaahhhhhhh!

Wen Yan looked at the hotel next door, her pupils shaking.

Isn’t this where the original host drugged Xu Ruozhou?!

Wen Yan walked into the hotel lobby with trembling legs. The front desk staff recognized her and looked slightly surprised. “Young CEO Wen?”

“What brings you here?”

The commotion from the marking incident had been widely spread, and the hotel staff all remembered her.

Wen Yan’s ears were burning. She stammered, “Oh, I was just walking around. Your renovations are quite nice, ah ha ha ha.”

The front desk staff’s gaze became increasingly strange. Wen Yan was so embarrassed her toes curled up, and she quickly turned to flee.

Forget it, I’ll apologize to the female lead on the phone later.

Meeting Xu Ruozhou here just feels like…

Remembering the scene of the snow-skinned beauty sitting in her lap, her swan neck arched back, Wen Yan’s old face flushed red.

She furiously shook her head a few times, trying to delete the explicit imagery from her mind.

“CEO Wen, where are you going?”

A pair of hands rested on Wen Yan’s shoulder.

Wen Yan turned her head. A Beta wearing black-rimmed glasses looked at her in confusion.

This was the physiology tutor she had hired for Xu Ruozhou from the Omega aristocratic school.

“Ruozhou, didn’t she call you?”

Wen Yan cleared her throat, pretending to be calm. “Yes, I got the call.”

The physiology tutor’s expression became even more confused. “Then why aren’t you going up yet?”

“It’s my first time seeing an Omega as smart as your wife. She learns everything so quickly. Most Omegas at our school take a year to complete all the ABO differentiation physiology knowledge, but your wife finished it in just half a month.”

“Oh, oh, oh.”

Wen Yan wasn’t surprised.

If someone with a little talent was driving a car on the highway, Xu Ruozhou was a rocket launching directly.

What others took a lifetime to achieve, she could do in a few months—a true hexagonal warrior.

Wen Yan felt proud.

“Although her theoretical knowledge is excellent, Miss Xu still lacks a little practical experience. Since she is already married, you, as her Alpha, can compensate for this very well.”

“Of course.” Wen Yan proudly puffed out her chest.

“…?”

Wait.

What?!

The curve of Wen Yan’s lips stiffened slightly. “Professor, what did you just say?”

The physiology tutor gave her a knowing, ambiguous look.

It felt like a bolt from the blue.

Wen Yan almost lost her footing.

Say that again. What does the female lead want to do with me?!

Coincidentally, the phone rang again at that moment. Wen Yan looked closely.

It was Xu Ruozhou’s number.

Wen Yan: …

“Why haven’t you come up yet?”

Wen Yan took the call with a trembling hand, which only shook more when she heard that.

“Where are you?”

Wen Yan laboriously swallowed. “I’m downstairs.”

“Should I come down and get you?”

Wen Yan’s heart hammered. “N-no need. I’m coming right up.”

Taking a deep breath, Wen Yan walked to the front desk. “Has the Omega staying in the Presidential Suite on the 21st floor paid the bill?”

The front desk staff found the Alpha walking toward her with her arms and legs moving out of sync strangely amusing. “Let me check for you.”

Her fingers quickly typed on the keyboard. “CEO Wen, your wife has already paid.”

“Oh.”

The hotel room was reserved by Xu Ruozhou, and Xu Ruozhou had paid.

She rushed over at Xu Ruozhou’s beck and call.

What did this count as?

Wen Yan’s expression was blank.

Had she become a marking tool?

This wasn’t in the prenuptial agreement!!!
