The Pursuit of Love After Divorcing My Cold Omega - Chapter 94
A Wish Related to You
The wish was related to you.
Song Wenzhi’s birthday party was held in the evening. The colleagues from the research institute finished work early today and drove to Xia Weichi’s villa.
Yu Kunian did not travel with them; she arrived there ahead of time.
She had been physically and mentally exhausted lately dealing with the matters involving Jiang Qiu and Cheng Lu. But today was Song Wenzhi’s birthday—even if those two were to turn the world upside down, Yu Kunian wouldn’t spare them a second thought. Her heart and soul had been focused on this single day. Every bit of the decoration bore the mark of Yu Kunian’s handiwork, but that wasn’t enough. The Alpha carried the prepared cake and placed it on the first-floor table.
She had specifically sought out Cheng Lu, who knew how to bake, to learn the craft. She made the birthday cake with her own hands, and the one she presented to Song Wenzhi was the very best of her efforts.
As the sky gradually darkened, Yu Kunian went up to the terrace. Standing still and tilting her head back, the Alpha gazed at the sky, confirming something. Beside her, balloons swayed in the wind, held captive by silk threads. The terrace was filled with flowers; crimson petals were scattered across the floor, and on the birthday sign nestled among the floral clusters, the Omega’s name was written in Yu Kunian’s own hand.
The gold-stamped handwriting was handsome and elegant. Yu Kunian placed the bouquet she was holding onto the table in front of her.
It was a bouquet of roses and Eustoma, with a letter tucked inside.
Yu Kunian had spent an entire day on the terrace decorations. Everything here had been created and completed piece by piece by her own hands. The Alpha was very satisfied with her work, her heart rippling with joy, as if even the night wind had grown warm.
It wasn’t until Song Wenzhi, Xia Weichi, and the others arrived that Yu Kunian went downstairs. She turned off the lights in the villa. Song Wenzhi entered with her eyes closed, guided by others. When she finally stopped, the sound of cheerful cheering erupted in her ears.
The Omega wore a white pearl gauze dress. Her hair was pinned up today, and her makeup was exquisite; she was breathtakingly beautiful. After Xia Weichi said she could open her eyes, streamers fell before Song Wenzhi. In front of her, Yu Kunian was pushing the cake toward her. The Alpha smiled at her and, after stopping, said softly:
“Happy birthday, Zhizhi.”
Yu Kunian’s voice was tinged with an irrepressible joy. She enunciated every word with exceptional clarity. Her heartbeat was so loud that it made her uncharacteristically nervous.
Candles were burning in the living room. Yu Kunian’s figure was slightly blurred, and the single flame on the cake flickered gently, making the Alpha’s cheeks appear to shift between light and shadow.
Having a birthday hat placed on her head and listening to her colleagues boisterously singing the birthday song, Song Wenzhi also began to smile.
Yu Kunian was singing too. Her gaze remained fixed on the Omega—sincere and pious—her eyes reflecting Song Wenzhi’s silhouette. The Omega slowly took half a step forward, closing the distance between them. Song Wenzhi heard Yu Kunian say another sentence after a few notes of clear laughter:
“I love you, Zhizhi.”
She wanted to tell Song Wenzhi about this love over and over again.
A late love, or perhaps, a love that was not yet too late.
Yu Kunian would never tire of it; she would express her unwavering feelings countless times. She didn’t want to regret anymore—never again. Nothing else mattered; Yu Kunian only wanted to say she loved her in this moment, at this time.
Yu Kunian loved Song Wenzhi.
Laughter danced in her eyes, and the sounds around her seemed to vanish. The Alpha’s eyes crinkled with her smile as she listened to her own accelerating heartbeat.
In this lifetime, forever and always, she would love this Omega. She would never lose Song Wenzhi again.
Song Wenzhi’s lips curled upward along with hers. Just a moment ago, the cold night air had chilled her fingertips, but in an instant, the heat at the Omega’s earlobes and her hurried breathing caused those fair hands to gradually grow warm. Before her was Yu Kunian’s brilliant smile. Song Wenzhi could see nothing else; her eyes could only hold the figure of this one Alpha.
The colleagues clamored for Song Wenzhi to make a wish. The Omega bowed her head and leaned down. Her secrets were hidden in her heart. Even with her eyes closed, Yu Kunian’s face remained in her mind. When the wish was finished in silence, Song Wenzhi looked up and blew out the candle.
A tiny wisp of smoke drifted toward Yu Kunian but quickly dissipated. Song Wenzhi followed that trail of smoke and slowly looked at her. At some point, the Alpha had also leaned down. Her amber pupils seemed like dazzling gems in the dim light, causing Song Wenzhi to inadvertently fall into them.
“What did you wish for?” Yu Kunian’s voice carried a warmth like a spring breeze, full of gentleness, sounding right beside Song Wenzhi’s ear.
Coming back to her senses, their eyes met.
Song Wenzhi spoke slowly: “A wish related to you.”
Yu Kunian’s smile widened. “I guessed as much.”
Her voice was very light, like a white feather brushing past. Song Wenzhi asked her again: “Then did you guess what it is?”
“I don’t know.” Yu Kunian shook her head, her brows arching slightly. “Is Zhizhi going to tell me?”
Song Wenzhi stood up straight, a lingering smile on her lips. “I’m not telling you, Yu Kunian.”
Yu Kunian said: “I will find out.”
She was very certain and sure that the wish would come true, no matter what it was.
Song Wenzhi didn’t speak again, but her expression spoke for itself. Yu Kunian’s confidence was not without reason. Her wish was related to Yu Kunian—it was about their future, a future they were both working toward.
A colleague came over to dab cream on the tip of Song Wenzhi’s nose, and Song Wenzhi finally snapped out of the atmosphere between her and Yu Kunian. The mood became very cheerful. Countless “Happy Birthday” wishes were sent to Song Wenzhi; in this moment, no one could feel anything but joy.
The food for the birthday party had been ordered in advance by Xia Weichi—exquisite and delicious, specifically prepared by a French chef.
Afterward, the cake was distributed to everyone. Song Wenzhi asked Xia Weichi beside her, “Did you order the cake?” She liked the taste of this cake.
Xia Weichi glanced at it. She hadn’t handled that part because Yu Kunian had taken over the task very early on. “It wasn’t me.”
Song Wenzhi asked, “Then who was it?”
“It was Yu Kunian,” Xia Weichi told her. She paused for a moment before adding, “It might not have been ordered—it’s not as refined as something made in a shop.”
Song Wenzhi was stunned for a moment. She immediately realized that Yu Kunian might have made it by hand.
Thinking of this, the Omega wanted to look for Yu Kunian’s figure, but after turning around and searching for a while, the Alpha had disappeared. She asked again, “Where did Yu Kunian go? I just saw her here.”
Xia Weichi said, “She probably went out. Maybe she has something to do.”
Song Wenzhi instinctively wanted to go look for her, but just as she took a step, her phone vibrated. A message had arrived. The Omega opened her phone and found it was from Yu Kunian, as if they were sharing a telepathic connection.
Yu Kunian: [Zhizhi, go to the terrace.]
Song Wenzhi froze for a heartbeat before turning to head upstairs.
The small night lights on the terrace made the area feel warm and cozy. The Omega stopped at the door, dazed. The petals on the ground were gently stirred by the wind, rising like Song Wenzhi’s hair and leaving behind a faint fragrance.
Song Wenzhi stepped inside slowly. There were candles on the terrace table too, which had just been lit. The handwriting on the birthday sign was incredibly familiar to her. Song Wenzhi hadn’t expected Yu Kunian to have decorations here as well. Stopping at the table, Song Wenzhi first saw the letter tucked into the bouquet. Yu Kunian had written it with a fountain pen, filling an entire page. The Omega read every single word without missing one.
As her fingertips brushed over the words on the letter, Song Wenzhi’s eyes turned slightly red.
She wanted to treasure it, just as she had secretly kept that speech script back then.
A moment later, another message came from Yu Kunian: [Look up.]
The very moment Song Wenzhi looked up, fireworks exploded in the sky. The dazzling colors lit up the entire heavens. The terrace provided a perfect angle, enough to see the fireworks clearly.
It was beautiful; she was happy.
While the fireworks continued, Yu Kunian arrived on the terrace. She looked at Song Wenzhi’s back and chuckled softly, then walked closer step by step, finally stopping beside the Omega.
“On New Year’s Eve, I saw very beautiful fireworks in Yin City,” the Alpha spoke softly. “The people around me were all in pairs. I looked at them then and thought, there’s one person missing by my side.”
It wasn’t envy; she just felt that they hadn’t seen such beautiful fireworks together yet.
There were still many things she hadn’t done with Song Wenzhi, and many more sights they hadn’t seen together. Yu Kunian had missed Song Wenzhi very, very much at that time.
The regrets she held then, she would personally make whole.
Yu Kunian continued: “Zhizhi, I want to watch fireworks with you, and I want to do many more things with you. I want to be with you, no matter what we do.”
She would never leave Song Wenzhi again. She wanted to be an Alpha who was always stuck by the Omega’s side—doing small things, living life, then going to and from work together, repeatedly walking through familiar streets, leaning on each other, eating many meals, resting on each other’s shoulders, and sharing many smiles.
As long as it was with Song Wenzhi, anything was fine. Even if they just sat together in a daze, that would be good.
As long as it was Song Wenzhi, it was enough.
The sound of the fireworks finally stopped, and the Alpha’s voice beside Song Wenzhi’s ear also ceased. Her fingertips trembled slightly. When she looked at Yu Kunian, her eyes were even redder.
Yu Kunian’s hair had been blown into a mess, and her cheeks were a bit cool from having just been outside. The Omega raised her hand, her warm fingers brushing back the Alpha’s messy hair before resting on Yu Kunian’s cheek.
“Yu Kunian,” Song Wenzhi’s voice carried a hint of a tremble.
Yu Kunian leaned into her palm and smiled. “I was saying, happy birthday, Zhizhi.” After a pause, the Alpha rubbed against the Omega’s palm. “This is the first birthday I’ve spent with you. Do you like it?”
Song Wenzhi nodded and moved half a step toward Yu Kunian.
She was extremely happy, specifically because of Yu Kunian.
“Thank you,” Song Wenzhi said.
Yu Kunian shook her head slightly. “Don’t say thank you, Zhizhi.” Having said that, the Alpha took out a prepared gift and handed it to the Omega. “A birthday present.”
There were two.
The first was a scarf.
Yu Kunian helped Song Wenzhi put it on to see how it looked. The Omega allowed her to do so but said with some confusion, “Spring is almost here; I won’t be needing a scarf much lately.”
Yu Kunian said, “Just wear it next winter. Zhizhi, just wear this one I gave you. Don’t use any other scarves anymore.”
She was still very bothered by the time Xia Weichi had tied a scarf for Song Wenzhi.
Song Wenzhi didn’t understand why, but she agreed nonetheless. After the trial fitting, Yu Kunian took off the scarf and then took out the second, formal birthday gift.
the gift box was opened, revealing a pair of earrings inside.
She had bought these diamond-encrusted earrings for nearly 500,000 yuan. They were beautiful, a decision made after Yu Kunian’s careful selection, and they matched the Omega’s dress perfectly today.
