The Eldest Lady always wants to have a double O Relationship with her old enemy - Chapter 8

“The rain is really heavy, it’s like it’s never going to stop.”

Ye Tao threw the newly bought bread and milk on the table and pulled out a few tissues to wipe the water off herself.

Shen Jianxi glanced at her. “Didn’t you bring an umbrella?”

“I did, but it was so windy and rainy, it didn’t do much.”

Shen Jianxi’s gaze fell on the third-to-last row by the wall. “Has Tang Yanzhao been absent all this time?”

Ye Tao sat down and started unwrapping her breakfast. She casually looked over her shoulder. “I think so.”

“Where could she have gone in this weather?” Shen Jianxi murmured, her brows furrowed.

“Xixi, Yang Yuhan is looking for you,” a girl at the door suddenly called out to her.

Shen Jianxi snapped back to attention, exchanged a knowing look with Ye Tao, and then got up and walked out of the classroom.

The Yang Yuhan who was so arrogant and meticulously dressed just a few days ago was now a stark contrast. Her eyes were bloodshot, heavy bags hung underneath them, her skin was sallow, and she looked completely drained and lifeless.

It seemed that ever since the truth was exposed, she had also experienced this feeling of helplessness.

Shen Jianxi’s face was sullen as she asked, “What is it?”

Yang Yuhan glanced at the students passing by and scurried into a corner, lowering her voice. “Can we talk over there?”

She pointed to the end of the corridor, where there was a storage room that few people went to. She was deliberately choosing a deserted place. Did she still want to save face at a time like this?

Shen Jianxi’s patience ran out. “If you’re not going to talk, I’m leaving.”

Seeing this, Yang Yuhan instinctively reached out to stop her from leaving. Fortunately, Shen Jianxi was quick and dodged her, taking a step back and warning, “Spit it out!”

“Xixi, I’m begging you, please take down the video and put in a good word with the school board. Don’t let them expel me, okay? I can apologize to Tang Yanzhao,” Yang Yuhan’s voice was choked with sobs.

Shen Jianxi sneered. “Will an apology help?”

“What do you want me to do? I’ll try my best to do whatever I can. Please?” Yang Yuhan, driven to desperation by her family, was now begging for mercy.

“I want you to get out of Rongqing.”

“Xixi, please don’t do this. I’m begging you. If I really get expelled from Rongqing, and it’s recorded in my file, my life will be over.”

Yang Yuhan’s words were filled with tears. An uninformed person would probably assume that Shen Jianxi was bullying her. However, the news from the forum had spread, and most people at Rongqing had heard about Yang Yuhan’s actions. Regardless of their private thoughts, they wouldn’t show any sympathy for Yang Yuhan on the surface.

“Now you know how to cry? Weren’t you pretty intimidating when you ganged up on her and bullied her? Weren’t you enjoying it when you had someone post a thread to elevate your status?”

“I just got carried away for a moment. I didn’t post the thread, Xixi, I’m sorry. Can’t you forgive me just this once?” Yang Yuhan was on the verge of kneeling. “Besides… Tang Yanzhao didn’t get seriously hurt, did she?”

Anger flared in Shen Jianxi’s eyes. “She didn’t get hurt? What about her injuries? Does she have to lose an arm or a leg, or be marked by you, for it to count as getting hurt? Yang Yuhan, you brought all of this on yourself.”

With that, she turned and left, not even hearing the math teacher who passed her by say, “Class has started, where are you going?”

On her way, Shen Jianxi fuming, asked Xiao Shi, “Where is she?”

“Host, I am your system. I don’t have the function to track other people’s whereabouts.”

Shen Jianxi stood on the first floor, watching the large raindrops hit the ground and form splashes.

She pulled out her phone and called Tang Yanzhao directly, but after three consecutive calls, the other party was in a “no answer” state.

Unless absolutely necessary, Tang Yanzhao would never skip class. The fact that she was absent meant she couldn’t come.

Shen Jianxi’s frown never eased. She concentrated and said, “You can determine her feelings by her physical changes. Does that mean you can also detect her physical condition?”

“Theoretically, yes.”

“Then help me check her current physical condition?”

Since she couldn’t know Tang Yanzhao’s whereabouts, she would first check her health to infer her safety.

The next second, Xiao Shi exclaimed, “Tang Yanzhao’s various body metrics are all outside the normal range. Her body temperature is abnormal, her heart rate is abnormal, her pheromones are abnormal, her white blood cell count is abnormal…”

Shen Jianxi’s heart sank with each report. Her gaze pierced through the rain, and her thoughts quickly led her to a decision. She stepped out into the rain, which quickly drenched her from head to toe. A blurry curtain of rain obscured her vision, but Shen Jianxi paid no attention, raising a hand to wipe it away and continuing without stopping.

About five minutes later, she stood panting at the door of room 513.

Her clothes stuck to her body, which was extremely uncomfortable, but Shen Jianxi paid no mind. She raised her hand and knocked on the iron door, calling out, “Tang Yanzhao, Tang Yanzhao…”

If this wasn’t during class, Shen Jianxi would probably have been surrounded by a crowd.

But no matter how hard she tried, the door wouldn’t budge. However, the faint scent of green grapefruit rum that was seeping through the door crack reminded Shen Jianxi that Tang Yanzhao was inside.

Just as she was at a loss, she heard a sound from the hallway. Shen Jianxi looked over and saw a girl walking and stopping at the door of room 515 next door.

“Xixi? What are you…” The girl was startled to see Shen Jianxi in such a disheveled state. After a closer look, she finally recognized her.

A thought flashed in Shen Jianxi’s mind. “Are the balconies of your two dorms connected?”

The girl replied truthfully, “No, they’re separate.”

“Can I go in and take a look?”

“Sure.”

Shen Jianxi went to the balcony. The balconies of the two dorms were indeed separated, but the gap between them was only about the width of half an arm. She made up her mind and was about to climb over.

The girl was startled. “It’s very dangerous. Come down.”

Shen Jianxi ignored her warning and gathered her strength to jump. But the heavy rain had made the tiles slippery, and as soon as her feet touched the ground, she inevitably slipped. Her body lost balance, and her knee hit the ground with a loud thud.

The girl’s expression was a mix of shock and panic. She leaned over the railing and asked anxiously, “Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

A cold sweat broke out on Shen Jianxi’s back from the pain. Her fair face instantly flushed. She held onto the wet railing and stood up, forcing herself to respond, “I’m fine, thank you. Please don’t tell anyone about this.”

The girl had only come back to get something and hadn’t expected to encounter this. She nodded repeatedly. “Okay, I understand. But are you really okay?”

Shen Jianxi stood up straight and let out a long breath. “I’m fine.”

With that, she slid open the glass door and limped inside. The rich scent of green grapefruit rum instantly clung to Shen Jianxi as if it had found an anchor. It was like in the kidnapping incident in her previous life, where Tang Yanzhao’s words were cold, but her pheromones had been silently protecting her.

Because of her love, the natural repulsion of two omegas’ pheromones had no effect at that time and even transformed into protection. In her previous life, Shen Jianxi had failed to notice this silent secret of Tang Yanzhao’s.

This time, Tang Yanzhao hadn’t fallen in love with her yet, and the high concentration of pheromones swirling around her stimulated Shen Jianxi’s glands. A slight stinging sensation made Shen Jianxi’s head feel momentarily dizzy.

She shook her head, took a deep breath to adapt, but the smell of the pheromones in the air caused her to cough several times.

Shen Jianxi endured the discomfort and turned around to open the glass door. The damp, cool air rushed in, and the intense pheromone scent gradually decreased.

She turned back around, and the figure huddled and trembling in bed came into view. Her arms dangled weakly over the side of the bed. A puddle of an unknown transparent liquid was scattered on the ground, but the shattered glass next to it reminded her that Tang Yanzhao had not used the oral inhibitor.

Shen Jianxi used the back of her hand to wipe away the sweat that had been forced out by Tang Yanzhao’s pheromones, and slowly approached. She bent down with stiff legs, and her fingers, which had been soaked by the rain, felt cool as they touched her cheek, making her body temperature feel even more frighteningly hot.

Shen Jianxi asked tenderly, “Zhaozhao, can you still hear me?”

Tang Yanzhao’s consciousness was completely muddled and she was unable to respond to Shen Jianxi’s question.

Shen Jianxi remembered that last time, Tang Yanzhao had taken the first aid kit from a cabinet below. Following her memory, she successfully found the kit, but after rummaging through it, she couldn’t find any omega inhibitors.

So the one Tang Yanzhao had broken was her last one.

Shen Jianxi’s nostrils flared. She went back to the bed, touched her flushed cheek, and whispered, “Zhaozhao, wait for me.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she endured the pain in her knee and opened the door, about to leave. Afraid that the door would be blown shut by the wind, she quickly turned back into the room and dragged a stool to block the door.

But in that case, Tang Yanzhao, whose bed was close to the door, would be completely exposed.

Shen Jianxi hardened her heart, held her breath, and ran to her own dorm at the end of the same floor. In a hurried panic, she pulled out her cabinet. After finding the inhibitor, she took off running without bothering with the items scattered all over the floor.

The door slammed shut with a bang, as if the wall had shaken.

Shen Jianxi ran across the empty hallway. As she got close to the door, the scent of green grapefruit rum was already overflowing. She quickly pulled the door shut, cutting off the connection between the room and the hallway.

Back by the bed, she pushed aside Tang Yanzhao’s black hair. The exposed gland was several times fuller than what she had seen in the infirmary, like a ripe cherry. Transparent fluid was seeping around it, dampening her collar.

No matter how mischievous Shen Jianxi was, she would never tease it at a time like this. She cleanly tore open the inhibitor and even reminded Tang Yanzhao before injecting it, even though she couldn’t hear her now.

The inhibitor needed some time to take effect. Blood was still oozing from the injection site. Shen Jianxi used her finger to wipe it away. The rounded gland shook slightly with her touch, feeling very elastic.

Shen Jianxi pursed her lips and curled her fingers into her palm, not touching it again. She pressed Tang Yanzhao’s body to make her lie flat. The concentration of pheromones around them was rapidly decreasing, but Tang Yanzhao’s face was still flushed, and even her neck and collarbone were pink.

She found a thermometer to check her temperature. It was “38.5 degrees Celsius.”

Shen Jianxi got her a cup of warm water, found some fever reducer and rubbing alcohol, and placed her palm on her face, gently stroking her with her thumb. “Zhaozhao, wake up and take the fever medicine.”

Tang Yanzhao didn’t know if she was conscious or not, but when Shen Jianxi fed the medicine to her mouth, she automatically stuck out her tongue and took it in. The hot, soft, and slick temperature brushed against Shen Jianxi’s fingertips, and her fingers trembled as if in a spasm.

It was soft and wet.

Shen Jianxi looked up and drank the rest of Tang Yanzhao’s water. She let out a sigh of relief that had been weighing on her chest and finally felt a bit better.

After feeding her the medicine, Shen Jianxi conscientiously rubbed alcohol on her palms and forehead. She watched her condition for a while, and only when her face gradually returned to normal did she finally feel relieved.

Shen Jianxi then had time to deal with her own discomfort. After being busy for so long, her hair was already half-dry. The wet clothes, with their indescribable smell, were uncomfortably sticking to her body. Her gaze fell on the person lying on the bed, and using the excuse of being worried about her being alone, she opened Tang Yanzhao’s cabinet.

There weren’t many clothes inside. They had a faint scent of laundry detergent and were neatly arranged, just like her—following the rules step by step.

Shen Jianxi found a white t-shirt from inside. Her slender fingers were placed on the collar, and she cleanly undid her own clothes, leaving nothing on underneath.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound behind her. Her fingers, which were holding the white t-shirt, paused, and she turned around with her hands in front of her to look at the person on the bed.

She saw Tang Yanzhao change her position, lying on her side with her face to the wall. Her ears were still red from the fever and the estrus period.
