The Omega Who Canceled the Engagement Ended Up Falling for Me - Chapter 14
Fu Shuang was wrapped in only a light-colored bath towel. Most of it was used to cover her curvaceous chest, yet even so, it seemed insufficient; the well-defined curves revealed a mysterious cleavage that would spark endless flights of fancy with just a single glance.
Xu Qing struggled to maintain her composure, her gaze slowly drifting downward. Those jade-white legs were still radiating heat from the bath, and water droplets trickled down the inner thighs, sliding past ankles as delicate as congealed fat before dripping onto the damp, reflective floor.
The middle-aged woman at the hospital had been right: Fu Shuang’s legs were exceptionally beautiful, the kind that anyone would admire. Although she wasn’t particularly tall—standing at about 165 cm—the ratio of her upper body to her lower body perfectly conformed to the aesthetics of the Golden Ratio. Consequently, the portion allocated to her legs was a few inches longer than usual, and it was precisely those few inches that made her temperament stand out amongst a crowd of women.
If her chest was a “killing blow” to men, then her body proportions—which appealed to female aesthetics—combined with her sweet, obedient looks perfectly fit the public imagination of a “perfect daughter.” Add to that her sweet-talking nature, and it was no wonder she was exceptionally popular wherever she went.
Had she been a few centimeters taller, she might not have seemed so approachable and well-liked.
As Xu Qing’s mind wandered through these chaotic thoughts, Fu Shuang had already bolted away by the time she looked up again, hiding behind a bedroom door and saying in a panicked voice, “Sister! When did you get back?!”
Koala, who had been in Xu Qing’s arms, broke free and escaped, letting out a “meow” as it chased after Fu Shuang, seemingly puzzled as to why she was hiding behind the door.
“Sorry… I forgot to tell you.” Xu Qing’s slight concussion left her feeling heavy, her blood surging and churning. She touched her nose, and sure enough, blood was seeping out.
Fortunately, she hadn’t been seen in such a disheveled and wretched state.
“I… I didn’t bring my clothes,” Fu Shuang said from behind the door. “Sister, can you help me get them?”
“Which one?” Xu Qing tried her best to sound perfectly composed.
“The nightgown on the sofa,” Fu Shuang poked her head out, one hand clutching the towel at her chest and the other pointing toward the single-seater sofa in the living room. “The yellow one.”
Xu Qing exerted some effort to stand up, waiting for her dizziness to subside slightly before picking up the nightgown and bringing it to Fu Shuang.
Even though they had differentiated into different genders, they were both women; there was really no need to be so restrained.
Thinking this, Xu Qing asked with a gentle and calm expression, “Is there anything else you need?”
“Please, please…” Fu Shuang’s voice trailed off, her face flushed crimson.
Xu Qing didn’t hear clearly and leaned in closer to ask, “What?”
As she approached, Fu Shuang suddenly gasped and whispered with all her might, “Inhi… Inhibitors.”
Xu Qing suddenly understood. She took several steps back and lifted her arm to sniff herself. Although it wasn’t very obvious, she had indeed leaked some pheromones that she shouldn’t have.
This reaction was wrong because even when she had been drugged at the Fu family home, Xu Qing hadn’t reacted just by smelling an Omega’s pheromones!
The area around her gland began to swell. At that moment, Xu Qing was overcome with an indescribable sense of shame and hurriedly said, “Sorry, sorry! I’ll get it for you right away!”
“It’s on the coffee table… no, it should be on the TV cabinet…”
Xu Qing searched around while Fu Shuang watched her through the gap in the door, saying weakly, “Look a bit more, I can’t quite remember…”
“It’s not here, not at the entrance, and not in your bag either,” Xu Qing said. “Did you leave it somewhere else? Do you want me to go buy some for you?”
“Oh right,” Fu Shuang suddenly remembered something. “I bought new ones online! They’re in the delivery box at the door. Help me look for them!”
There were indeed two delivery boxes at the door. Xu Qing checked the labels and opened the box from the “Omega Care Center.” Inside was indeed a batch of brand-new inhibitors for Omegas.
Xu Qing took out one and quickly brought it to her.
Fu Shuang said “thank you,” closed the bedroom door, and slumped onto the floor in exhaustion.
Xu Qing went to take a shower, using the physical cooling to calm herself down.
The bathroom was filled with steam. The clothes Fu Shuang had just taken off were still piled to the side; the light-colored lace panties and semi-transparent bra were exceptionally eye-catching. Xu Qing didn’t dare imagine how good she would look wearing them—even the stage of a world-class lingerie show would be nothing more than this.
Damn, if only I could just catch a whiff of her pheromones.
Cold water poured down from the showerhead. Xu Qing tried her best to dispel those messy thoughts and picked up the inhibitor bottle from the windowsill, spraying a pump toward her nose and mouth.
A completely unfamiliar scent rushed into her nasal cavity. Xu Qing staggered and leaned against the slippery bathroom wall as she collapsed.
Dazed, she checked the bottle, only to realize that the label on this one was different from the one she usually used—
This was the Omega inhibitor, the very one Fu Shuang had asked her to find for so long!
A sweet fragrance filled the narrow bathroom. Xu Qing propped herself up by the sink. In the mirror cabinet, she saw a woman in a bra and lace panties striking seductive poses.
This was a very typical side effect of using the wrong inhibitor: hallucinations.
Xu Qing stared unblinkingly at the phantom in the mirror. The other party winked at her, placing an index finger on her lips in a playful and cute gesture.
Xu Qing pressed her hand against the mirror’s surface. In her blurred vision, the woman behind her approached, hugging her from behind and whispering softly, “Sister, you smell so good.”
Reason could identify it as a hallucination, but her five senses were completely deceived. Xu Qing could even feel the sensation of being embraced, feeling the other person’s damp body, her plump and enchanting figure pressed against her back.
Even if it’s just for this moment, let me indulge.
The air in her chest seemed to have been sucked dry. She forgot to breathe, enduring a suffocating pain while recklessly indulging in the false sense of being needed.
Knock, knock. Two taps came from the bathroom door.
Xu Qing opened her eyes. The hallucination in the mirror faded slightly, yet she could still vaguely see that charming smile.
Xu Qing unconsciously allowed herself to be led by the nose by the hallucination, her reason straying once again.
Knock, knock, knock! The bathroom door was rapped heavily twice more. Fu Shuang’s voice came from outside, “Sister?”
“Sister, are you okay?”
Outside the carved glass door of the bathroom, a blurry yellow figure was closely monitoring the movement inside.
Seeing that there was still no response, Fu Shuang tried to turn the doorknob and called out, “Sister, can you hear me?”
Xu Qing suddenly gasped for air, swallowed, and said, “I’m here!”
“Oh, you scared me to death,” Fu Shuang sighed and said. “I heard you fall, and then I didn’t hear any movement for a long time. I was afraid something happened to you in there.”
The corners of Xu Qing’s lips twitched slightly. She said, “I’m fine now.”
“I almost called 120,” Fu Shuang said with lingering fear. “Sister, next time you shower, don’t lock the door. I won’t peek at you!”
“Is that so?” Xu Qing wiped the fog off the mirror and laughed softly. “You almost broke down the door just now.”
Fu Shuang laughed with a “haha,” muttered a few words, and walked away. Xu Qing turned the shower back on, letting the cold water drench her entire body.
The hallucination had been too intense; the current sense of loss was the most real thing of all.
Coming out of the bathroom, Xu Qing changed into a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, her long black hair tied casually into a bun on top of her head. She saw Fu Shuang sitting on the sofa, hugging her knees and watching TV. The nightgown with the little yellow duck print made her look like a tiny ball.
Xu Qing hesitated whether to go over and greet her or just go straight to the bedroom to sleep.
As expected, she wasn’t quite adapted to living together. So many incidents had occurred in a single night; Xu Qing highly doubted whether she could get along harmoniously with her Omega sister in the future.
“Sister, are you hungry?”
Seeing that she had finished her shower, Fu Shuang used the remote to pause the TV and leaned her head over to talk to her.
“Not really. Why?” Xu Qing looked at her with a smile. “Are you waiting for me?”
“You caught me!” Fu Shuang jumped off the sofa, picked up a stack of cash from the coffee table, and walked over to her barefoot, saying with a smile: “Sister, I’m treating you to a late-night snack tonight!”
Xu Qing looked at the thick stack of bills in her hand, her eyes widening. “Did you strike it rich?”
“I made a small fortune today! I found the kid on the bicycle and showed the video to his guardian. This is the compensation they agreed to give you. Guess how much?” Fu Shuang winked, her complexion significantly better than before.
Money truly could heal many things; Xu Qing felt her joy vicariously.
It seemed she hadn’t experienced this kind of happiness in a long time. Living alone for too long, combined with her personality, always gave people an unapproachable feeling.
Aside from Fu Shuang, very few people took the initiative to talk to her like this.
That stack of cash was at least 5 millimeters thick. Xu Qing narrowed her eyes and intentionally guessed low: “Two thousand?”
Fu Shuang said dissatisfactory, “Way more than that!”
Xu Qing made a “wow” expression. “Gosh, it can’t be three thousand, can it? How did you do it?!”
Fu Shuang pouted, her dissatisfied expression naturally switching to “full of pride.” She raised an eyebrow and said, “Sister, your imagination is too poor. There’s a full eight thousand yuan here! You didn’t expect that, did you?”
Xu Qing was genuinely shocked. She looked her up and down and said, “I didn’t. How did you do it?”
Fu Shuang smiled mysteriously. “Not telling you!”
“Did they really compensate eight thousand? It wasn’t ten thousand and you kept two thousand for yourself, was it?” Xu Qing said jokingly.
Fu Shuang’s expression stiffened as she defended herself, “How could that be? Does Sister think I’m that kind of person?”
Xu Qing laughed, “Just kidding. I didn’t plan on taking this money anyway, and the insurance company has already started the claims process, so I won’t have any losses. I just have to wait for the car to be repaired. Since you managed to get the compensation for me, you just keep the money.”
Fu Shuang: “Really?”
Xu Qing nodded. “Keep the money; just treat me to a meal.”
Fu Shuang hugged Xu Qing excitedly, looking visibly happy. “Thank you, Sister!”
The real hug came a bit suddenly. Before Xu Qing’s hands could even touch her body, the latter let go and kissed the stack of bills with genuine emotion.
Xu Qing briefly savored the embrace and then frowned, calculating the other’s income for the day—
Not only did she have her wages from work, but she also got the compensation from Xu Qing, and finally a hefty sum of damages.
Earning over ten thousand in a day; she was rolling in it.
Even if it were Xu Qing, she would be happy to death.
