The White Moonlight Omega Has Amnesia and Always Tries to Seduce Me - Chapter 77
Memory cards are not common now because their operation is complicated, far less simple and easy to use than a USB drive. Qin Huai spent a long time just looking for a card reader.
There was a desktop computer in Qin Huai’s bedroom, which had accumulated a layer of dust from long-term disuse. Shen Zhi plugged the card into the host, and then looked worriedly at the person sitting in the swivel chair.
The omega had just come out of the storage room, her white T-shirt stained with a lot of dust, and her palms looked dirty. She sat in the wide black swivel chair, sinking into it, her face as pale as a white sheet of paper.
Seeing Qin Huai like this, Shen Zhi’s heart ached as if it were being gouged out. Her finger paused on the round hole of the host’s power switch, and she asked, “Huaihuai, if you don’t want to.”
The transparent light streamed in, illuminating Qin Huai’s skin as if it were covered with a layer of light, and she looked like a delicate and fragile glass product, making people unable to approach.
The omega’s pupils were very black, and the whites of her eyes were very clean. The moment she looked over, the light seemed to be interrupted, “Look.”
Shen Zhi wanted to say something more, but then laughed at herself.
The Qin Huai she liked seemed to have always been like this, rational and calm, always able to choose the correct answer from the messy, weed like thoughts, and then dive headfirst into it.
The second the display screen lit up, Shen Zhi nodded, “Okay.”
After the computer was turned on, a card shape was displayed on one side of the screen. Shen Zhi clicked into it, and inside it contained two folders, one for photos and one for audio.
At this moment, Qin Huai suddenly felt a sense of fear. She was afraid that what she was looking for was not what she thought it was. She was afraid that Qin Zhijing would go unpunished, wrapping ugly truths in beautiful lies. She was also afraid that Gu Qing’s death was actually that simple: she collapsed and jumped off a building because she couldn’t bear the pressure of having a child.
Qin Huai took her hand off her thigh and slowly placed it on the mouse. Her fingers trembled, and she couldn’t even control her strength when pressing the mouse button.
Shen Zhi saw all these anomalies. The alpha’s heart was full of heartache. Of course, she knew it would be easy to call a stop now, but that was what Qin Huai had been looking for all along. No matter the outcome, all the knots that appeared in the middle had to be untied by herself.
And all she could do was accompany her, whenever Qin Huai needed her.
Shen Zhi placed her hand over Qin Huai’s hand, leaned her shoulder slightly closer, and whispered, “Huaihuai, don’t be afraid.”
Qin Huai looked sideways, nodded heavily.
Qin Huai first clicked on the photo folder. There were thousands of photos inside. She clicked on the first one in order. The screen first turned black, and then a woman’s photo appeared on the screen.
In the photo, Gu Qing was standing at the gate of Jiangcheng University with a black backpack on her shoulder. Green trees cast shadows behind her, and the sun shone through the gaps between the treetops onto the omega’s face, making her beautiful face look very lively.
This Gu Qing and the Gu Qing described by Zhou Yue intertwined layer by layer into a huge net, circling in Qin Huai’s mind, and finally the picture froze at the scene of Gu Qing sitting on the railing in a white dress.
A dull pain shot through Qin Huai’s heart, and her tightly locked brows suddenly relaxed.
“So this is the real you.” Qin Huai murmured, her fingertips moving slightly, followed by another photo.
It can be concluded from the smiling face in each photo that Gu Qing was actually an omega who loved life very much. Whether it was the food at school, the surrounding scenery, or even just the sunset, she could take photos continuously for several days. One photo only showed half of her face. She wore a large sun hat, and the sunset behind her was as gorgeous as flames.
Qin Huai stared at this photo for a long time, and finally reluctantly pressed for the next one.
At the end of the photos, when there were only a little over a hundred left, other people finally appeared in the pictures. The person who appeared most often was Zhou Yue. The two girls in the prime of their lives leaned intimately together, their smiles equally brilliant.
“They should have been in the preparation stage for the inhibitor research at this time,” Shen Zhi said, looking at the two people in the photo.
The two girls looked at the camera, their eyes almost narrowed into a line. One hand was holding an ice cream, and the other hand was holding a notebook. When the camera took the picture, the cover of the notebook was also captured, with a few large characters written in flourishing handwriting:
Inhibitor Research (First Generation)
Qin Huai nodded, “Yes.”
The photos continued to move back, and alpha and beta also began to appear in the picture. Several of them looked particularly familiar; they should have been introduced to her by Zhou Yue during that academic exchange meeting.
Qin Huai briefly looked at the end. These photos were mostly of Gu Qing’s daily life. Although she did not get much useful information, it was a great gain for her.
Shen Zhi saw the disappointment in her eyes, patted her shoulder, and comforted her, “It’s okay, let’s look at the videos again.”
Qin Huai shook her head. Her disappointment was not due to the gap from the truth, but because of regret, regret that such a good person as Gu Qing, if she were still alive, would definitely have a place in the research of inhibitors, instead of being as unknown as she is now.
“I just feel sorry for her.” Qin Huai pursed her lips, her eyelashes trembled, and the pity in her eyes was concealed, “How amazing she must have been.”
All current research related to inhibitors is based on the first generation inhibitor, including Qin Huai’s current proposal to save costs and develop the most cost effective inhibitor.
But at that time, Gu Qing conducted the research under entirely unknown circumstances, with everything from the formula to the dosage being screened layer by layer to determine the final formula.
How amazing she was to have such determination.
“I didn’t know anything about these things before, and I just simply blamed her for committing suicide.” Qin Huai frowned, her tone self-reproachful, “I couldn’t figure it out. Why did she commit suicide? She obviously had parents and a family. Did she never think about what her suicide would bring to these people?”
“But now, although I still have doubts about her suicide, I don’t hate her at all. Because more than being someone’s mother, she was Gu Qing, and she managed to find a little rationality for all omegas during their heat, so that they were no longer helpless.”
Shen Zhi sat on the corner of the table next to the computer, her toes tapping the ground. After listening to Qin Huai’s words, she pulled the armrest of Qin Huai’s chair, pulling her towards herself.
“Your mother is amazing.” Shen Zhi said sincerely, “And her suicide has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to blame yourself.”
“But I’m her daughter.” Qin Huai raised her head, the corners of her eyes were red, and her eyes were helpless like a child’s, “I misunderstood her for so long. If I were her, I would definitely hate me.”
“A mother will never be angry with her child.” Shen Zhi said, pressing her forehead against Qin Huai’s forehead, “So, you have to trust your mother.”
Their foreheads touched, transmitting each other’s temperature. Qin Huai closed her eyes and remained silent.
Shen Zhi was uneasy and was about to move back a little to take care of her emotions, but her clothes at the back were suddenly grabbed by a pair of hands.
Qin Huai still had her eyes closed, but the corners of her mouth twitched, “Don’t use that trick to coax a child on me. I’m several years older than you, be serious.”
Seeing that the omega in her arms had somewhat recovered her emotions, Shen Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said in a dragging tone, “Oh, so you think I’m young.”
Qin Huai’s eyelids moved, and she wanted to pull her forehead away.
This time, however, Shen Zhi did not retreat at all and said aggrievedly, “If I were older, Big Sister would allow me to coax her, right?”
“I didn’t mean that.” Qin Huai explained, “I don’t think you are young.”
“Then Big Sister thinks I’m not serious?”
Qin Huai didn’t hide anything and retorted, “What do you think?”
Shen Zhi was genuinely aggrieved this time, and took the initiative to move her forehead back, “Then next time I coax you, I’ll be more serious?”
Qin Huai: “…”
Shen Zhi sat on the corner of the table, thought for a few seconds, and said, “Don’t be sad, Big Sister, I will definitely accompany you in the future.”
Qin Huai said “En” and nodded. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Shen Zhi’s suppressed smile and realized, “Shameless, who are you telling to call you ‘Big Sister’?”
“You.”
Qin Huai was amused, “What are you thinking about all day long?”
Shen Zhi tilted her head, her expression frank, “You.”
“Can you be more serious?” The depressed mood just now vanished, replaced by Shen Zhi’s cleverness. Qin Huai turned her face away and chuckled a few times, “It’s impossible for me to call you ‘Big Sister’, unless one day I sprain my foot like you and need you to take care of me.”
“But during your heat, you really like me calling me ‘Big Sister’.”
Qin Huai acted as if she had heard a cold joke and didn’t understand at all, “What are you talking about?”
Shen Zhi stepped on the ground with her toes and stood up from the corner of the table, “Next time I’ll take a video for you to watch.”
Qin Huai: “?”
Shen Zhi leaned down and whispered, “Watch how you call me ‘Big Sister’.”
Qin Huai: “………”
The playful banter ended, and Qin Huai refocused her attention on the photos. There were only a few pictures left. Qin Huai frowned, her fingers pressing the mouse to click forward.
She had given up hope for everything, but when she saw the last photo, she was stunned for a full ten seconds.
There were only two people in this photo. One was Gu Qing, and the other was none other than Qin Huai’s father, Qin Zhijing. In the picture, Qin Zhijing was far from looking unapproachable as he does now. Instead, he was wearing simple sportswear, black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he looked quite rustic.
In contrast, Gu Qing next to him wore a white dress that hugged her curvy figure, and her elegance was impossible to hide. When she smiled, her eyes were like a pair of curved moons, bright and beautiful.
The relationship between the two in the photo was not intimate; there was still less than half a meter of distance between them. The end of the photo was also marked with the shooting time.
This was two years after Gu Qing’s graduation, and less than a year before Qin Huai’s birth.
