The White Moonlight Omega Has Amnesia and Always Tries to Seduce Me - Chapter 79
When they left the house, it was already past eight in the evening, and the sky was a deep navy blue. Shen Zhi flagged a taxi and got in with Qin Huai.
“Driver, to Jiangcheng University,” Shen Zhi said as she closed the car door.
The driver replied, “Got it,” and turned the steering wheel, heading towards Jiangcheng University.
Shen Zhi glanced worriedly at the omega beside her. Streetlights lit up one after another, and the soft yellow light intermittently shone through the window onto Qin Huai. Her long hair was loose, the top of her head slightly messy from being grasped too many times, and the wisps of hair at her temples were tucked behind her ears. When she looked out the window, she was shrouded in a subdued aura.
Qin Huai like this didn’t seem like the Qin Huai who was emotionally stable; rather, she had a sense of impending storm and pressure.
It was as if she was waiting for an opportunity to release her emotions.
Shen Zhi held her hand, gently stroking the back of her hand.
As soon as they got home, Qin Huai went straight to the bathroom. Seeing her empty hands, Shen Zhi turned to the bedroom to find underwear and a bathrobe before heading out.
The bathroom light was on, and the sound of running water could be heard.
Shen Zhi walked over and knocked on the door, “Huai Huai, you didn’t take your clothes.”
The next second, a slightly cold female voice, muffled by the sound of water, came out. Shen Zhi didn’t hear it clearly and moved her feet closer, “What did you say? I didn’t hear you.”
This time, there was no sound from inside for a long while.
Shen Zhi became anxious, her slender eyebrows knitted together, and her knuckles quickly tapped the glass door, “Huai Huai, can you hear me?”
After about two or three seconds, just as Shen Zhi’s knuckles were about to tap the door again, the bathroom door was opened from the inside.
A burst of steam rushed out, dampening Shen Zhi all over.
However, just as she realized the person inside was fine, her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and she was yanked inside.
In the confined space, only the two of them remained. Qin Huai, with wet long hair, forcefully pushed her against the sink, her actions rough and aggressive, “Mark me.”
Shen Zhi was startled and froze for a moment by the demand.
Seeing her standing there stunned, Qin Huai actively reached out to tear at her clothes. The bathroom floor was too slippery, and Shen Zhi dared not push back, only grabbing her wrists, “Huai Huai, calm down first.”
Qin Huai seemed to be pricked, and when she looked up, her eyes were teary and fierce, “You like me, don’t you? I’ll let you mark me now.”
“But your emotions are unstable right now.”
Qin Huai grabbed her collar, “You don’t care if I’m stable or not, if you can’t make me go into heat, then get lost.”
This time, Shen Zhi finally understood what Qin Huai meant. When an Alpha marks an Omega, pheromones inevitably leak out, causing the Omega to go into heat. Qin Huai wanted to go into heat now, which meant there was only one reason.
She wanted to know what she was like when she was in heat.
“Huai Huai, I understand what you mean.” Shen Zhi sat on the sink, allowing the omega to grasp her collar, “But these things won’t solve the problem.”
“Qin Zhijing exploiting Auntie’s amnesia during her heat only shows he’s a piece of trash. And even if you clearly know what amnesia during heat is like, what good will it do? It will only make you suffer more in the end.”
While speaking, Shen Zhi looked directly into the eyes of the omega in front of her, without the slightest evasion. The girl’s eyes were passionate and sincere, looking at her without any disguise, easily giving rise to a deep emotional illusion.
Qin Huai was struck by this gaze, released her grip on the collar, and slowly squatted down as if losing strength.
The shower water had been turned off, and the exhaust fan hummed, but the mist in the bathroom did not dissipate.
Qin Huai looked at the water pooling at her feet, her fingers gripping her arm turning red. Like a failure, she confined herself, “Compared to my mother, I am truly useless. Not only can I not make Qin Zhijing receive the punishment he deserves, but I can’t even restore her reputation.”
The omega, who had extremely high expectations for herself, was deep in self-doubt and negation. She felt that Gu Qing giving birth to her was a mistake.
“I really am a waste.”
Shen Zhi looked at her slightly trembling back and suddenly chuckled, “A waste? But do you know how many people you’ve helped?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Huai looked up, her eyes glistening with moisture.
Shen Zhi half-squatted down, cupping her face with one hand to wipe away the moisture, “Huai Huai, change your clothes, I’ll take you somewhere.”
“Where?”
Shen Zhi smiled, a hint of bitterness in her eyes, “The place where I met you.”
Not knowing how long they would stay at the school, Shen Zhi didn’t bother calling a taxi. After Qin Huai was ready, she took her hand and headed to the underground parking garage.
It wasn’t quite summer yet, and the evening was still a bit chilly. Qin Huai wore a loose white T-shirt and sweatpants, covered by a striped shirt, and went out wearing a baseball cap pulled low. She didn’t know where Shen Zhi was taking her, so she let her lead her to the basement and stop in front of a car.
Then came the sound of the car lock unlocking.
Qin Huai looked up in slight surprise, her eyes shrouded in the dim light, and asked, “Yours?”
Shen Zhi nodded. Afraid that Qin Huai might worry, she supported her shoulder and gently pressed her back into the passenger seat, saying, “Don’t look at my age, but I got my driver’s license as soon as I turned adult, and I drive often. Don’t worry.”
Click. The seatbelt fastened.
Qin Huai couldn’t help but laugh, “I wouldn’t run away.”
Shen Zhi finally felt reassured after settling her, resting her arm on the car door, her long hair falling as she turned her head, “You would.”
Qin Huai blinked, not quite understanding.
This made Shen Zhi feel like she was raising a younger sister, so she pinched Qin Huai’s chin and teased, “Little sister, be good, or big sister will lock you up today so you can’t run away.”
Qin Huai was too lazy to argue with her. So Shen Zhi voluntarily took her expression as acquiescence and continued, “First, call me ‘big sister’.”
This time Qin Huai couldn’t tolerate it. She raised her chin abruptly and opened her mouth to bite the hand resting on her chin.
Shen Zhi was quick to react and dodged. Before closing the door, she said to the omega’s sullen face, “When will you change your habit of biting randomly when you get anxious?”
The consequence of that remark was that Qin Huai didn’t say a word to her the whole way.
It wasn’t until the car got closer and closer to the city center and the surrounding streetscape became familiar that Qin Huai peered out the window and asked, “Why did you bring me to our school?”
Shen Zhi looked for a parking spot on the side of the road, turned the steering wheel to pull over and stop, and replied with a smile, “This is my alma mater too.”
Qin Huai seemed a little disbelieving. Shen Zhi got out of the car first and asked her, “Shall we go?”
Jiangcheng No. 1 High School hadn’t changed much since Qin Huai graduated. At the school gate, there were still single desks set up with notebooks and pens, and some school badges.
Shen Zhi greeted the security guard at the gate, and the guard surprisingly remembered her, so he generously let both of them in.
Qin Huai followed behind Shen Zhi, grabbing the hem of her shirt and asking, “Did you attend high school here too?”
Shen Zhi nodded, “Yes, but you definitely wouldn’t recognize me.”
Shen Zhi’s intention was actually to sound a bit pathetic, but she didn’t realize the target of her pity was immune to it, and actually nodded in agreement, “It’s normal that I wouldn’t recognize you.”
Shen Zhi was genuinely sour now, “Yes, the senior was a prominent figure at Jiangzhong, with admirers lined up from the twelfth grade to the school gate. How could she remember me?”
Qin Huai nodded, “It’s good that you know.”
Upon hearing that, Shen Zhi looked sideways, her eyes slightly widened.
Qin Huai, who was enjoying teasing her, stroked her head, and her entire face became exceptionally gentle as she raised her chin, “Then why don’t you tell me about your high school life today? Student Shen Zhi.”
Shen Zhi narrowed her eyes, a shallow dimple appearing at the corner of her mouth, as if she really was her high school self, “Okay.”
At this time of night, day students had long finished evening self-study, and only a few boarding students were having their evening self study in the classrooms. It was inconvenient for Shen Zhi to take her to the classroom, so they went to the sports field.
The field wasn’t crowded at this hour. The young Alpha held the hand of the person she longed for, walking along the crimson track, and said by the moonlight, “I was told off by the teacher again today during the group run.”
Qin Huai cooperated, “Why?”
Shen Zhi: “The student behind me kept stepping on my shoe, so I went out to tie my shoelace, and also to watch the twelfth-grade students run.”
Qin Huai nodded, “Then the teacher said you deserved it.”
Shen Zhi: “This afternoon, the school organized a speech, and Senior Qin Huai from the twelfth grade was going to speak.”
Hearing her own name, Qin Huai paused her steps, “What?”
The stage was ahead. Shen Zhi’s eyes curved, and she pulled Qin Huai to run forward, saying as she ran, “Today I’ll show you how amazing my Senior Qin Huai is.”
Shen Zhi stopped in front of the stage, then released her hold on Qin Huai, pointing to the stage with her chin, “Go up.”
“No, that’s too embarrassing,” Qin Huai refused.
So Shen Zhi stepped onto the stage herself, then looked down at the omega on the field and said, “At that time, my senior stood here and gave a speech. Facing the difficulties of a questioner, she was neither subservient nor overbearing, leading them skillfully, and ultimately defeating her opponent.”
“She will never know how radiant she was standing here, as if there was light in her eyes.”
Qin Huai was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised her hand to cover her mouth.
Shen Zhi continued, “That’s when I started to notice Senior Qin Huai. At first, I just memorized her face, and then I spent so long looking at her that I couldn’t bear to look away, until one day someone asked me, ‘Shen Zhi, why do you always stare at the twelfth grade?'”
“That’s when I fell for you.”
“Before I met you, I drifted along, aimless. My biggest joy every day was spending money. I always thought that since my family had endless money, I would be wealthy for a lifetime even if I lived off old earnings. But until I heard you say that you wanted to develop the most cost-effective inhibitor, I was initially in disbelief.”
“So my Senior Qin Huai is amazing. This is nineteen-year-old Shen Zhi saying this to twenty three year old Qin Huai.”
“This means eighteen year old Qin Huai is saying this to twenty three year old Qin Huai.”
