The Pursuit of Love After Divorcing My Cold Omega - Chapter 61.2
Yu Kunian didn’t insist on leaving anymore. She indeed couldn’t go looking without a plan. “But I don’t know where she would go.”
Lihua City was too large. If Song Wenzhi wanted to hide, it would be all too easy.
“You’re in such a bad state right now, you definitely won’t be able to think of it. You need to get some good rest first and then organize your thoughts.” Jiang Qiu persuaded her to go upstairs and sleep. “Wait until you’ve rested well before thinking about it. Don’t worry about the other things—Aunt Yu is already looking into the fabricated article. It will settle down in a few days. Don’t pay attention to it; just wait for it to pass. As for the company, you don’t need to go there for the next few days either.”
Regardless of whether the rumors were true, they had indeed caused a significant impact on Zhaoming Biotech. Now the board of directors was exceptionally dissatisfied with Yu Kunian, so asking her not to go to the company was partly for that reason as well.
Beside them, Yu Sheng lowered her eyes, wondering what she was thinking. She was clear about all the company’s circumstances and had already met with some of the company’s directors, but none of this was known even to Yu Dai and Yang Jin.
The matter of the rumors hadn’t completely ended. Yu Dai and Yang Jin were busy collecting evidence and using other means to recover Yu Kunian’s reputation. Meanwhile, Jiang Qiu was helping Yu Kunian find Song Wenzhi’s whereabouts. No one expected a person to seemingly evaporate, leaving no trace behind, which made both of them extremely distressed.
Fortunately, Jiang Qiu approached it from another angle and found some useful information.
Xia Weichi had suddenly returned just two days ago.
Yu Kunian had no other choice. She could only disguise herself. After learning of Xia Weichi’s whereabouts from Jiang Qiu, she quietly followed her in the car, keeping a distance that was neither too far nor too close, ensuring Xia Weichi wouldn’t notice.
She followed her to the downstairs area of Xia Weichi’s residential complex. After seeing that the things Xia Weichi bought along the way were not for just one person, the Alpha was certain that Song Wenzhi was staying at Xia Weichi’s home.
Yu Kunian couldn’t say how she felt when she reached this conclusion. She felt as if her strength had been drained, sitting in the car with a dark look in her eyes. The Alpha hadn’t lost her logic yet; she didn’t go up immediately. She stayed downstairs, watching the sky turn dark, until Xia Weichi left the building again.
Yu Kunian watched Xia Weichi’s back for a moment, then turned and went upstairs without hesitation.
Judging from the floor where the elevator stopped earlier, she identified Xia Weichi’s floor. There were only two units on that floor. Yu Kunian quickly made a judgment based on the shoe rack of one unit, then turned and knocked on the door of the unit without a shoe rack.
There was no sound from inside for a long time. Yu Kunian continued to knock patiently until she heard someone call out: “Coming.”
The familiar voice made Yu Kunian freeze for a moment.
It felt as if she hadn’t heard it in a very long time, and a sense of longing she hadn’t even noticed herself began to stir in her heart.
In the brief moment while waiting for Song Wenzhi to open the door, Yu Kunian actually felt nervous.
The door was pushed open from the inside. Yu Kunian impatiently took a half-step forward. Before Song Wenzhi could fully open the door, she was already prepared to step in. The Omega, upon seeing her, was first stunned, then immediately prepared to close the door.
The Omega was dressed casually, but she seemed a bit more haggard, and her complexion wasn’t very rosy.
Yu Kunian reached out to grab the edge of the door. The scent of coconut candy pheromones lingered faintly at the tip of her nose. She looked at Song Wenzhi and called her name: “Zhizhi.”
“How did you find this place?” Song Wenzhi tried to close the door with force, but Yu Kunian had anticipated this and used her foot to block it.
“Zhizhi, I know you heard what I said at the Li Group banquet that day.” Yu Kunian didn’t have time to say anything else. Song Wenzhi clearly had no desire to see her, so she immediately stated her purpose.
Hearing this, Song Wenzhi’s movements froze.
The Omega slowly raised her head, her gaze filled with an unidentifiable emotion. Her grip on the handle loosened slightly. “So?”
“Zhizhi, I did indeed approach you with a motive. To avoid a forced marriage, I wanted to choose an Omega myself to marry, to go against my family. But I didn’t mean to deceive you. I admit that approaching you like that at the beginning was very vile behavior, but I didn’t treat you insincerely. I wanted to marry you, so I have always taken it seriously…”
“Yu Kunian, don’t you think these words are a bit too late?” Song Wenzhi listened to her excuses, finding them somewhat piercing. “You deceived me from beginning to end. I gave you a chance to admit it that day, but you didn’t.”
“Yes, I didn’t think of it that day. I thought I no longer cared about the original plan, so I forgot. Aside from the ulterior motives at the very beginning, I haven’t deceived you since we got married. I haven’t made any other mistakes.” Yu Kunian knew her initial motives were excessive, but her subsequent actions were not problematic. “I will make it up to you, Zhizhi. As long as you don’t divorce me, I’ll agree to anything.”
“Yu Kunian, what do you take me for?” Song Wenzhi looked at her with a gaze that carried a hint of disbelief, her eyes turning red uncontrollably. “Am I your pastime? You think you’ve done nothing wrong?”
“You are my wife. Our marriage isn’t a mistake, Zhizhi.”
“Do you think my bringing up a divorce is solely because of your deceitful ulterior motives?”
Yu Kunian’s brow furrowed slightly. “Zhizhi, about the ‘liking’ you mentioned… I really need time. You have to give me time, otherwise, I have no way to figure out what that is.”
Such thin, cold words coming from Yu Kunian’s mouth made it almost impossible for Song Wenzhi to breathe.
What kind of attempt at reconciliation was this? Yu Kunian even had to “learn” how to “like” someone. What kind of marriage was this?
“Yu Kunian, I am not suited to be your wife.” Song Wenzhi couldn’t continue maintaining a fake marriage life with an Alpha who didn’t even have an emotional foundation. She knew very well that Yu Kunian’s Omega shouldn’t be her.
Yu Kunian said: “Zhizhi, I don’t want to divorce.”
Song Wenzhi didn’t speak. She looked at Yu Kunian. With such a strange Alpha, she felt heartbroken over this marriage she had once looked forward to so much, only for it to end like this.
“Yu Kunian, please leave.”
“Zhizhi—”
“I said, please leave,” Song Wenzhi repeated, lowering her blurred eyes.
As soon as she finished speaking, the scent of coconut candy suddenly intensified. It was immediately noticed by Yu Kunian.
Song Wenzhi’s heat cycle had never been very regular, but since getting married, the frequency had decreased, and her pheromones weren’t as easily leaked. Now, the pheromones that couldn’t be contained even by a scent blocker felt as intense and out of control as they had been that time before they were married.
“You’re in heat, Zhizhi,” Yu Kunian said, leaning forward.
Song Wenzhi raised her hand to cover the back of her neck. Caught off guard by this moment, Yu Kunian stepped fully inside. The Alpha closed the door behind her. The Omega instinctively backed away but was pulled into a full embrace by Yu Kunian.
Yu Kunian removed her own scent blocker. “Zhizhi, I’ll help you.”
The scent of peppermint spread forcefully, and the soothing pheromones tried to give Song Wenzhi a moment of relief. The Omega followed her pheromones and didn’t struggle against this sudden embrace. Yu Kunian lowered her head, using her fingers to brush aside the hair at Song Wenzhi’s neck, preparing to perform a temporary mark to end the discomfort of Song Wenzhi’s heat.
But her lips had only just brushed against Song Wenzhi’s skin when she was pushed away with all the Omega’s strength. Yu Kunian stumbled back a few steps, nearly failing to keep her balance, and looked at Song Wenzhi in front of her with a face full of shock.
The Omega covered her gland. A tear slid down her cheek, and her voice trembled: “Don’t touch me, Yu Kunian.”
Yu Kunian was stunned.
Song Wenzhi could no longer accept her touch. Furthermore, the Omega’s pheromones began to reject her.
“Withdraw your pheromones. I don’t need them,” Song Wenzhi said. “Yu Kunian, have you ever considered my feelings?”
Yu Kunian stood rooted to the spot. Song Wenzhi’s questioning left her speechless. She thought Song Wenzhi was just throwing a tantrum, so she came to reconcile and make amends for the initial mistake.
But now, she heard Song Wenzhi say to her word by word: “I want a divorce. Can you respect my rights? If you don’t agree, I will go through the litigation process.”
A roar seemed to sound in Yu Kunian’s ears, nearly deafening her. Her heart raced, and the temperature of her fingertips gradually turned cold. Yu Kunian could no longer deceive herself. Facing the haggard Song Wenzhi, she couldn’t speak.
Was it because of her that Song Wenzhi was so haggard?
The peppermint-scented pheromones slowly dissipated. Yu Kunian’s fingertips trembled slightly. She still didn’t know exactly what she had done wrong; she clearly just wanted a little more time. Even if it was “liking,” she could learn to show it. Their marriage could be perfect; it could become whatever Song Wenzhi wanted it to be.
But now, Song Wenzhi’s stubbornness left her with no options.
Yu Kunian lowered her head, took a deep breath, and took a half-step back. She didn’t notice Song Wenzhi’s pained expression. She turned, deciding to leave.
Before going, Yu Kunian said: “Zhizhi, I need to think about it before I give you an answer.”
After saying that, she pushed open the door, only to lock eyes with the returning Xia Weichi.
The scent of coconut candy was thick. Xia Weichi was hurriedly holding the scent blockers she had just bought when she saw Yu Kunian.
“Yu Kunian?” Xia Weichi’s gaze instantly became sharp. She dropped her usual gentle demeanor and immediately reached out to pull Yu Kunian out of her house. “How do you know about this place? Were you following me?”
Xia Weichi first handed the scent blockers to Song Wenzhi. After watching the Omega return to the bedroom, she walked out and closed the door, looking at Yu Kunian and saying: “President Yu, I can call the police for you trespassing on private property.”
“That is my legal Omega.” Yu Kunian was unwilling to let Xia Weichi see her distress at this moment. Xia Weichi surely knew the news of Song Wenzhi wanting a divorce and was probably laughing at her behind her back.
Xia Weichi’s expression remained unchanged. “Soon, she won’t be.”
