The Pursuit of Love After Divorcing My Cold Omega - Chapter 90.2

So when Song Wenzhi discovered the truth, her emotional collapse caused her physical state to deteriorate. The degree of damage to her gland worsened due to the severe loss of pheromone control, as if she were suffering a backlash. All the mint scent Yu Kunian had given her was released back through the pain in another form. Xia Weichi loathed the culprit behind all of this; Song Wenzhi’s agony was like a knife stabbing into her heart.

Yu Kunian knew none of this.

That day at Xia Weichi’s house, Yu Kunian thought Song Wenzhi was just having a normal heat cycle, but she didn’t expect it to be a “backlash.” The Alpha froze at this moment, her fingertips trembling uncontrollably. Her breathing became erratic, and her voice was hoarse: “Why is Zhizhi’s gland damaged? Was she born with it?”

“The initial cause was long-term drug abuse and mental suppression.” Xia Weichi sighed, feeling sad. “Xiao Zhi was once used as a test subject because her gland was very excellent, very perfect.”

So, that day in the Zhaoming Biotech lab, when Song Wenzhi heard the sound of a certain instrument and became panicked—it was because she had experienced that kind of pain?

Yu Kunian’s thoughts returned to the past, to every second spent with Song Wenzhi.

The Alpha couldn’t control her eyes from reddening. She covered her face with both hands, her heart aching as if being cut by a knife. She hadn’t expected Song Wenzhi to have suffered such pain, and whether intentionally or not, she had become the person who inflicted secondary harm.

“Yu Kunian, by telling you about Xiao Zhi, I want you to think clearly. I have some understanding of your family. Regarding an Omega with a damaged gland who cannot be marked for life—they might not necessarily accept her. What about you?” Xia Weichi couldn’t guarantee that Yu Kunian could accept it; family ideology would more or less affect this Alpha from a privileged background.

Yu Kunian answered very quickly: “I accept everything about Zhizhi. My family has no right to make choices for me.”

She had long since decided never to return to Lihua City.

Xia Weichi said, “You’d better mean what you say.” She sat back down on the sofa. “After the divorce, Xiao Zhi’s condition hasn’t been good. She needs your pheromones, so I need to use the CPP technology to extract your pheromones and make ‘medicine’ for her.”

Yu Kunian didn’t question her again. She said, “Starting tomorrow, you can use the people from the Alliance as you wish. The CPP team will fully cooperate with you, and I will be responsible for all the funds consumed.”

Xia Weichi said, “Before the medicine is made, you can stay with Xiao Zhi, but there shouldn’t be too many pheromones.”

Yu Kunian gave an “Mhm.” She wiped the tears from her cheeks and stood up, turning to take another inhibitor and injecting it into herself to avoid releasing any more pheromones. The Alpha could no longer care about the pain in her own gland; she was currently consumed by heartache and guilt.

Perhaps it was at this moment that she realized Yu Kunian truly had no ulterior motives. Before Yu Kunian entered the bedroom, Xia Weichi asked, “Why did you make the Alliance only negotiate cooperation with Xiao Zhi?”

Yu Kunian’s footsteps stopped. Her hands were clenched into fists, and her voice was very soft: “The Alliance’s cooperation is enough to push her into the upper management of the Research Institute.”

Being an assistant was simply a waste of her talent.

Yu Kunian wanted to use her own resources to propel Song Wenzhi into a high-level position at the Research Institute, so she would at least have a voice and the power to do what she wanted to do.

Xia Weichi didn’t speak for a long time. She realized she had been narrow-minded. She hadn’t expected that someone as profit-oriented as Yu Kunian would be willing to exhaust her own interests just to pave the way for the Omega.

Watching Yu Kunian enter the bedroom, Xia Weichi didn’t know what she was feeling. She lowered her eyes with complex emotions.

Was it resentment? Not exactly; she had known for a long time that there was no possibility between her and Song Wenzhi.

Back in Lihua City, Song Wenzhi had rejected her marriage proposal. Although the Omega desperately wanted a home, the prerequisite was mutual love. If there was none, Song Wenzhi would rather be alone than force it.

Xia Weichi was just wondering: was Yu Kunian’s sincerity truly one hundred percent?

Let’s hope so.

She did feel disgust and aversion toward Yu Kunian, but she also wanted Yu Kunian to stay by Song Wenzhi’s side. This Alpha was Song Wenzhi’s only special cure.

In the room, Yu Kunian’s pheromones had almost entirely dissipated. Xia Weichi’s own scent blocker was a bit damp; the mint scent from earlier hadn’t just affected Cheng Lu, but her as well. Yu Kunian’s pheromones were too powerful, more aggressive than theirs.

And Yu Kunian herself had now withdrawn all her scent. She pulled up a chair and sat by the bed. The bedroom was faintly permeated with the scent of coconut candy, which made the Alpha particularly uncomfortable.

Song Wenzhi was still unconscious. Yu Kunian’s tears lightly hit the bedsheet as she wept silently. She couldn’t imagine how much pain Song Wenzhi had endured in the past. And she had indirectly harmed the Omega even more. Yu Kunian’s chest heaved as she whispered hoarsely:

“I’m sorry.”

Her apology was for much more than just her late-arriving love.

The Alpha held the Omega’s hand and lowered her head. Her wet eyes appeared brilliant in the darkness as she gently kissed the back of Song Wenzhi’s hand.

It was a gesture of devotion and sorrow.

“Zhizhi, I won’t let you hurt anymore…” Yu Kunian looked at Song Wenzhi. She interlaced her fingers with the Omega’s, stroking her knuckles with her fingertips. “I’ll never leave again.”

For a split second, Yu Kunian felt fortunate that she was useful to Song Wenzhi.

From now on, she would be there at any time, as long as Song Wenzhi needed her. No matter when or where, the Alpha would rush to Song Wenzhi’s side. She was willing to do everything for the Omega, as long as Song Wenzhi was no longer in pain, as long as Song Wenzhi was well.

Yu Kunian spent the night half-awake in the chair. When she woke up the next morning, Song Wenzhi had not yet opened her eyes.

Xia Weichi hadn’t left either; she had made do on the sofa for the night. She woke up earlier than Yu Kunian. When she saw Yu Kunian leaving the bedroom, she stood up. “Is Xiao Zhi awake?”

Yu Kunian shook her head. “Check her condition again.”

After the previous night, the atmosphere between Yu Kunian and Xia Weichi was no longer as confrontational, but it was still somewhat delicate. Xia Weichi tried to speak as little as possible to avoid excessive communication with Yu Kunian. After all, her grudge against Yu Kunian hadn’t been completely erased; although her opinion had changed somewhat last night, it wasn’t enough to welcome her with smiles so quickly.

“She should wake up by the afternoon. There shouldn’t be any issues, but your pheromones cannot appear for the next few days.” Xia Weichi left the medical kit on the table. She didn’t plan to stay long, and it was indeed inappropriate for her to remain. “I’m going to the Alliance.”

Yu Kunian said, “Thank you.”

After seeing Xia Weichi off, Yu Kunian washed up briefly and then returned to the bedroom. She tucked the corner of the quilt for Song Wenzhi and made sure she wouldn’t catch a cold before sitting back down.

It had been a long time since Yu Kunian had looked at Song Wenzhi so quietly. She gazed at the Omega’s face with near-craving. Her expression was no longer so tense, and she occasionally stood up to tidy a few stray hairs for Song Wenzhi. Just looking at her like this made the Alpha feel satisfied.

To be safe, she injected another inhibitor at noon.

“What are you doing?” Song Wenzhi’s voice suddenly rang out, nearly causing Yu Kunian to accidentally hurt herself.

After finishing with the inhibitor, the Alpha threw it away and quickly turned around. “Zhizhi, you’re finally awake. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Song Wenzhi had naturally seen what Yu Kunian had just used. She remembered that the Alpha was still in her rut. “I don’t feel uncomfortable, but why did you use that?”

Following the Omega’s gaze to the trash can, Yu Kunian paused for a moment before leaning in closer and saying seriously, “Zhizhi, you can’t be exposed to too many of my pheromones anymore.”

Song Wenzhi woke up and saw the medical kit on the table. She pursed her lips and asked after a long pause, “What did Weichi tell you?”

She didn’t know how she had fainted last night, but thinking about it, it could only be related to her gland.

The Omega’s complexion was still not very good. Yu Kunian coaxed Song Wenzhi to lie back down in the bedroom before saying, “She probably told me everything she could.”

“You know everything now?” Hearing this, Song Wenzhi stared at Yu Kunian, seemingly trying to find something in the Alpha’s expression, but to no avail.

Yu Kunian nodded. “I’m sorry, Zhizhi.”

Song Wenzhi’s fingertips retracted slightly. “Why are you apologizing?”

Yu Kunian said, “Your physical condition is more or less because of me. Whether indirectly or directly, it is my fault.”
