The White Moonlight Omega Has Amnesia and Always Tries to Seduce Me - Chapter 89
All the reversals happened in an instant.
As soon as Qin Huai finished speaking, a “thud” suddenly came from the other end. It sounded like a heavy object falling to the ground, the sound deep and heavy, causing alarm just by listening. Qin Huai was the first to react, disregarding her usual politeness and upbringing, she just shouted: “Shen Zhi?”
There was no answer from the other side.
Qin Huai’s heart was troubled, a raging fire seemed to be burning in her chest. The Alpha she had been worried about and hadn’t had a proper chance to spend time with was trapped in the center of the fire; many regrets hadn’t been compensated for, making her frantic.
“Shen Zhi, if you hear me, say something back.”
This time, there was no speaking voice, but there were other noises. Qin Huai interpreted the heavy object falling as Shen Zhi being ambushed and pushed down, and the muffled sounds as punches hitting flesh. Qin Huai couldn’t care less now, her eyes fell on the police officer in front of her, hoping the other party could give her an address.
The police officer naturally felt soft hearted facing this pitiful and pleading gaze, but they had indeed promised Shen Zhi not to let Qin Huai get involved in the danger. They could only comfort her, “Don’t worry, our people will be there right away.”
Qin Huai was afraid that by the time their people arrived, Shen Zhi would have been dragged to see the King of Hell by that deranged lunatic. Just as she was about to seek a way out, a sound suddenly came from the computer.
“Can you hear me?”
Everyone present, including Qin Huai, quickly reacted. The police officer sitting in front of the computer was desperately hitting the keyboard, with such force that it seemed like he wanted to shatter the device. Qin Huai, on the other hand, stared at the small screen, contemplating Qin Zhijing’s plan.
Since Qin Zhijing’s ultimate goal was her, if he was smart enough to know the relationship between her and Shen Zhi, he definitely wouldn’t casually take Shen Zhi’s life.
Qin Huai could think of these things, and Qin Zhijing naturally could too.
Qin Zhijing’s slightly excited voice came through, “Qin Huai, I just heard your voice. You should be with those police officers, right?”
Everyone in the living room simultaneously turned their eyes to Qin Huai. The Omega’s skin was fair like snow, but her personality was as hard as stone. She glanced around at everyone, seeing the forced composure in Shen Zhi’s parents’ eyes and the police officers’ hindering gazes, but she couldn’t go against her heart.
In front of everyone in the room, Qin Huai parted her lips and said, “I am.”
Qin Zhijing’s booming laughter drowned out the silence in the living room. Qin Huai waited for him to finish laughing and then asked indifferently, “What’s wrong? Thinking of another dirty trick? Haven’t you harmed my mother enough, and now you want to harm me?”
Gu Qing to Qin Zhijing was like a scabbed wound to a child; the more you tell them not to pick at it, the more they can’t control themselves. Qin Zhijing’s laughter indeed stopped, his tone completely one of being wronged by others, “I harmed your mother? I harmed you?”
Qin Huai didn’t want to talk to this kind of Alpha with mental issues.
But Qin Zhijing was oblivious, speaking with the tone of a victim, “I just wanted your mother to be a little more compliant. As long as she stays with me nicely, why would I bear to lock her up? And you, this isn’t harming you, this is a chance for you to be remembered throughout history.”
“Should I kneel on the ground and be immensely grateful to you?” Qin Huai raised her voice, questioning him.
“No, no need,” Qin Zhijing said, “You just need to offer your gland to Dad. After Dad finishes researching this experiment, I will take you to see your mother. Haven’t you always wanted to see her?”
“Do you think she’d be happy to see you?” Qin Huai couldn’t help but mock, “Seeing you would only make her feel like garbage soaked in water on a rainy day. She’ll only cover her nose and stay farther and farther away from you.”
“Your mother wouldn’t,” Qin Zhijing said lightly, “The essence of an Omega is still to admire power. Before, when I was inferior to her, she wouldn’t look at me. But now that I have status and research results, she will accept me again.”
Qin Huai shattered his beautiful dream, “She won’t.”
Qin Zhijing’s breathing suddenly quickened. Then a “smack” sound came from the other side. Qin Huai’s temper flared up, and she yelled into the device, “What are you doing?”
“I’m very unhappy with the things you just said,” Qin Zhijing said, “Say something nice, or I’ll use the pliers in my hand to pull out this Alpha’s fingernails first.”
“Qin Zhijing, I’ll kill you,” Qin Huai’s eyes were red, furious because of Qin Zhijing.
“I’ll count to three,” Qin Zhijing ignored her and calmly began counting, “Three.”
Qin Huai pursed her lips, not opening her mouth.
“Two.”
Qin Huai’s lips moved slightly, still not speaking.
“One.”
Qin Huai finally spoke this time, openly challenging the other side, “Qin Zhijing, listen. I can’t say things that go against my conscience, but aren’t you most precious of this gland of mine?”
The counting on the other side stopped, waiting for Qin Huai to continue.
Qin Huai lowered her eyelashes, and when she raised them again, they were filled with a determination to fight to the death. She spoke calmly and coolly, using herself as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Qin Zhijing, “If you use the pliers to pry open one of her fingernails, I will slash my own gland. As long as she is in any danger, my gland, and me, you can just wait to see them after you die.”
“I want to see you now,” Qin Zhijing said.
“Fine,” Qin Huai agreed, “But I want to talk to Shen Zhi first.”
“Fine,” Qin Zhijing agreed and handed the device to Shen Zhi.
She was fierce towards Qin Zhijing, but her tone changed when facing Shen Zhi, afraid that a loud word would scare her, “Shen Zhi, are you okay?”
“I’m quite alright,” Shen Zhi took a deep breath, her voice somewhat muffled, “Sister, you shouldn’t have come out.”
“No nonsense,” Qin Huai said to the other end, “Wait for me to bring you home.”
The call was disconnected. Qin Huai honestly told the police officers and Shen Zhi’s parents, “I’m going to find her.”
Zhou Yue immediately stood up from the sofa, opposing the idea. Her good friend was already gone, so she naturally couldn’t let her friend’s daughter take risks. “No, this is too dangerous. We couldn’t stop Shen Zhi, so we must find a way to stop you. Leave it to the police, they will bring Shen Zhi back.”
Unexpectedly, Qin Huai was not in a state of discussion, but had already made her own decision, “Teacher Zhou, I am definitely going there. Even if you lock me up, I will jump from the balcony to find her.”
Qin Huai spoke too decisively, which stunned Zhou Yue.
Qin Huai walked around the sofa, disregarded the surrounding gazes, knelt on one knee in front of Zhou Yue, and said with composure, “If this situation today were my mother, I believe you would definitely go too. Shen Zhi is to me just like my mother is to you… no, that’s not right.”
She changed her statement halfway, “I love her, it’s the kind of love where I want to be with her for life. If I shrink back now due to fear or your obstruction, then I would also be letting her down for all the planning she did for me. Just take pity on me, and let me go this once.”
“My mother’s matter, Shen Zhi’s matter, I want to solve them myself.”
Zhou Yue lowered her gaze, carefully examining the Omega’s features. She reached out and gently traced the contours of her eyebrows, nose bridge, and jawline… She thought of her good friend, the Omega who was always positive and believed that there was always a way, an Omega who was only truly serious when it came to experiments.
She was the confidante who would encourage her when she hesitated and the best friend who would let her stay at her house freely when she was cheated.
She was her forever good friend.
How could she watch her friend’s daughter take risks? But what Qin Huai said was also true, because besides her, no one could take risks for her deceased friend.
A tear slipped down her cheek, across her nose bridge, and landed on Qin Huai’s forehead.
Zhou Yue finally stroked the top of her head and said, “If you want to go, then go.”
The car sped like a rocket on the road. The fields and crops by the roadside were unsettlingly quiet at night. Qin Huai was wearing a grey long-sleeved tracksuit with a hood, her dark eyes fixed on the flashing scenery outside the window.
The police had already installed a tracker on Shen Zhi, and Qin Zhijing didn’t destroy it after discovering it. So Qin Huai smoothly arrived at the factory gate.
Police officers in bulletproof vests stood at the entrance with guns. When they saw the car stop, they quickly surrounded it. “Captain, what do we do now?”
The person being called captain ignored everyone, got out of the driver’s seat, opened Qin Huai’s car door, helped her out, and then closed the door.
She ignored everyone else, afraid that Qin Huai’s phone might be confiscated, and only instructed Qin Huai, “If anything unexpected happens, all you need to do is yell, and we will rush in.”
Qin Huai looked at her sideways, nodded, and agreed.
This factory was built in the suburbs, surrounded by countryside. There used to be a small river here, which had now been paved and filled to become a road.
Qin Huai pulled on the hood over her head and then pushed open the door.
The space inside was vast. Machinery that hadn’t been moved when the factory relocated was scattered around, looking somewhat like roaring, man-eating beasts under the dim corner lighting.
Qin Huai closed the door and walked over the path created by these “beasts” towards the corner.
Qin Zhijing was lighting a cigarette in his hand; the glowing red tip of the cigarette was particularly striking. He peered forward, and upon seeing the arrival, he immediately stood up from his chair.
For over twenty years, the father and daughter had always been in a state of hostile confrontation, making the present moment constrained and awkward.
At least, Qin Huai felt so. As for Qin Zhijing, he seemed very pleased, his eyes curving into a smile when he laughed, “Good daughter, you finally came.”
“Just call me by my name,” Qin Huai wished she didn’t have a blood relationship with him. She cut straight to the point, “When will you let her go?”
After speaking, Qin Huai looked towards the corner. The Shen Zhi in her memory had never been so dishevelled. Blood stained her forehead, half of it trickling down from her temple. Her defined features were covered with a layer of dust, and the white dress on her was also dirty.
Shen Zhi’s hands were tied, and her mouth was stuffed with some kind of cotton cloth. She shook her head at Qin Huai.
The anger from being locked in the room hadn’t subsided. Qin Huai walked over and stepped on the Alpha’s shoulder. The force wasn’t great, but the posture looked a bit frightening.
The leg stepping on the person was slightly bent, bringing the two closer. Qin Huai could clearly see the Alpha’s eyes. She stared, examined, and guessed, but her words were harsh, “You can’t decide anything for me, just like I was forced to choose when you left me in that room.”
“Shen Zhi, we’ll settle our score when we get back.”
