Why was her Zhiyuan so naturally gifted, arousing her to the point of weakness, making her want to pull her into a dark room–
Saucy thoughts.
Hey!
What was she thinking?
Zhiyuan agreed to “live together” with her purely out of contractual spirit. She had never said anything like “I like you” to her.
No way!
She had to make Zhiyuan fall in love with her quickly.
Lu Zhiyuan’s soft lips pressed against her ear: “Did you learn it?”
Heavens, could she not speak so close to her ear?
Her voice was too alluring, too enticing.
“Hmm?” The Alpha asked again in a low voice, her breath carrying a woody scent falling on the back of her neck.
Shen Qiaoyi’s cheeks flushed, the heat spreading from her ears to the glands on the back of her neck, even making her tongue tie: “…I, I failed to learn it.”
Lu Zhiyuan said nothing and didn’t let go, just chuckling softly through her nose with a hint of indulgence.
The increasingly strong scent of white wood wafted from the back of her neck. Shen Qiaoyi shifted, wanting to avoid the Alpha’s breath, but accidentally bumped into the kitchen counter.
“Ow, it hurts.”
Lu Zhiyuan quickly backed away, crouching down to check, her tone urgent: “Where did you hit?”
“Here.” Shen Qiaoyi pointed pitifully at her inner thigh.
The Omega was wearing ultra-short denim shorts. Without thinking, Lu Zhiyuan reached out to touch.
They both froze at the same time.
Three seconds later, Lu Zhiyuan pulled her hand back as if burned, using the excuse of grabbing a bowl to move to the sink: “You, you go rest. I’ll call you when the food is ready.”
Because she was facing away, Shen Qiaoyi couldn’t see her expression, only seeing her fair ear tips flushed an intense red without realizing it.
Shen Qiaoyi slowly moved to the couch, the corners of her mouth curled high: “Okay.”
Soon after, Lu Zhiyuan came over carrying two bowls: “Dinner’s ready.”
“Wow! It smells so good.”
Back in school, Shen Qiaoyi heard the cafeteria lady say that being able to cook egg fried rice and stir-fried potato strips well was a true skill.
Lu Zhiyuan’s egg fried rice not only had distinct grains, but each was coated in egg. Just looking at the color made it appetizing.
Shen Qiaoyi took a spoonful and put it in her mouth, not sparing her praise: “Delicious! Zhiyuan…you’re so capable, you can do everything.”
Lu Zhiyuan smiled faintly. She put her bowl on the dining table, took off her apron, and walked towards Mushroom’s dog bed with another bowl of egg fried rice.
The husky had already smelled the aroma and came out of its little wooden house carrying its dog bowl in its mouth. With teary eyes, it half-crouched, its eyes full of “please feed me.”
Seeing it was Lu Zhiyuan coming to feed it, Mushroom haughtily tossed aside its dog bowl and slowly turned to the side, giving this “cheap mom” a cold shoulder.
Lu Zhiyuan: ???
Was she…being shunned again?
Lu Zhiyuan persisted in getting closer, poking the husky’s short leg in a friendly manner: “Mushroom, time to eat.”
Mushroom curled its leg, shifting position to face Lu Zhiyuan with its butt, making snorting noises through its nose.
Shen Qiaoyi came over and glared fiercely at Mushroom, making a show of taking away the bowl in Lu Zhiyuan’s hand: “Eat it or not, if you don’t eat then go hungry.”
Mushroom finally turned around, pitifully approaching Shen Qiaoyi and letting out an appeasing “awoo”.
Lu Zhiyuan smiled faintly, crouching down to pour all the rice from the bowl into Mushroom’s dog dish.
Mushroom snorted haughtily twice more, but ultimately couldn’t resist the aroma of egg fried rice and buried its head to lick it up.
Lu Zhiyuan rubbed its fluffy head. This time Mushroom didn’t dodge, or perhaps it was too busy eating to dodge.
In the end, it even allowed Lu Zhiyuan to run her hand over its soft belly a few times.
Shen Qiaoyi burst out laughing, winking at Lu Zhiyuan: “See, I told you Mushroom would like you.”
Lu Zhiyuan: ???
How was it liking her? It clearly just wanted the food in her hand.
She really didn’t understand how this cunning little fox ended up raising a husky – a dog with low intelligence that was greedy and destructive.
After dinner, Shen Qiaoyi volunteered for dishwashing duty, letting Lu Zhiyuan use the bathroom to shower first.
Lu Zhiyuan carried her pajamas towards the bathroom, her slightly curly hair loosely tied up with a few strands falling by her temples, swaying in beautiful arcs with each step, sexy and alluring.
The sound of water started trickling from the bathroom.
Shen Qiaoyi stood by the sink holding a dishcloth, her mind flashing through those steamy scenes from the original novel penned by that dog of an author.
There’s no time like the present, why not tonight with Zhiyuan…
Hmm…
Was she moving too fast?
But early next month was Su Wanqing’s birthday. She would inevitably have to meet Ji Ruolan then, who knows what underhanded tactics she would use.
It would be better to let Zhiyuan mark her, cutting off Ji Ruolan’s hopes.
But how could she lure this dense Alpha Zhiyuan into bed?
Just as Shen Qiaoyi was lost in thought, Lu Zhiyuan had finished showering and came over rubbing her damp hair: “Shen Qiaoyi, I’m done. Do you want to shower too?”
Lu Zhiyuan realized how ambiguous her question sounded only after asking it.
Sure enough, the little fox leaned in close, staring intently into her eyes before curling her lashes and eye corners into a smile as bewitching as a poppy: “Alright.”
With that, she lightly brushed past her side, deliberately pausing to whisper two suggestive words in her ear: “Wait for me.”
Lu Zhiyuan’s motion of drying her hair paused. It took a few seconds to calm her heartbeat before she sat down on the couch.
The steam in the bathroom hadn’t dissipated yet. The humid air still faintly carried Lu Zhiyuan’s subtle, rich woody scent.
Standing under the warm bathroom light, Shen Qiaoyi belatedly realized she had forgotten to bring pajamas.
She opened the bathroom door, intending to go get them, but retracted her hand as soon as she touched the doorknob.
What was she thinking!
Wouldn’t it be better to have Zhiyuan bring them in?
To conquer such a dense and honest Alpha, she needed some tricks up her sleeve.
So Shen Qiaoyi opened the door slightly and called out in a trembling kitten-like voice: “Zhiyuan…”
Hearing her shaky voice, Lu Zhiyuan’s heart tightened and she immediately rushed over: “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“I…I forgot to bring my pajamas.” Shen Qiaoyi’s slightly helpless voice came through the door: “Zhiyuan, can you bring them for me? The pajamas are on the low stool on the balcony, the purple ones.”
Lu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment before softly replying: “Okay.”
She walked to the balcony, hugged the pajamas to her chest, then returned to the bathroom and lightly knocked on the door.
From inside came the Omega’s coquettish voice with a hint of allure: “Come in.”
Lu Zhiyuan was startled, her eyelashes trembling lightly as she stood there for a few seconds, unconsciously rubbing her fingertips.
The Omega’s voice grew even more coy, the end of her words carrying a hint of lingering charm: “Come in…”
Lu Zhiyuan’s arms holding the pajamas suddenly tightened. Suppressing the thoughts in her heart, she reached for the doorknob. Before she could exert any force, the door automatically unlatched.
The dark wood door slowly opened. Misty humid air leaked out from the crack, mixed with the fragrance of shower gel and the Omega’s faint fruity wine scent.
Like an airtight net, it firmly ensnared the Alpha inside.
Lu Zhiyuan froze in place as the door swung fully open from momentum. She saw the blurry yet alluring silhouette behind the glass.
The bathroom glass was frosted, semi-transparent on both sides.
Shen Qiaoyi cunningly pressed her body against the glass, then slowly undressed. She deliberately made her movements very slow, letting her clothes fall to the ground one by one, revealing her shapely curves bit by bit.
For Lu Zhiyuan, this was both temptation and torture taken to the extreme.
There were mirrors on both sides, leaving Lu Zhiyuan nowhere to avoid. The Omega’s S-shaped curves gradually entered her field of vision.
She also saw in the mirror her own eyes, tinged crimson and suppressing desire.
She was trapped in the web Shen Qiaoyi had woven, her consciousness starting to blur. She couldn’t tell if this was reality or a dream, only aware of her dilating pupils and violently beating heart.
“Plop…”
A water droplet fell from Lu Zhiyuan’s still damp hair onto the top of her foot.
The momentary coolness snapped her out of her frozen state. Lu Zhiyuan awkwardly averted her gaze and hurriedly put down the pajamas: “I’ve put the clothes on the sink. I’ll go out first.”
Shen Qiaoyi was stunned for a moment, then gently bit her lower lip.
No way, still no reaction?
Aish!
Looks like she needed to use stronger measures.
She quickly dried off her body and put on the sheer, thin sexy nightgown she had prepared in advance. Before leaving the bathroom, she sucked on her lips in front of the mirror to give her already alluring lips a natural rosy color. She then tousled her half-wet hair, deliberately brushing it to one side so a few strands naturally fell into the deep V of her nightgown.
Shen Qiaoyi looked at her seductive reflection in the mirror and curled her lips in satisfaction.
She pushed open the bathroom door, her gaze immediately falling on Lu Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the couch intently watching TV.
Shen Qiaoyi swayed her hips as she walked over, deliberately slowing her pace, like a sinuous beautiful snake, slow and alluring.
Lu Zhiyuan’s gaze seemed fixed on the TV, but her peripheral vision had been on the bathroom the whole time. The moment Shen Qiaoyi opened the door, she had already noticed her.
Faced with the little fox’s dangerous approach, she couldn’t react at all and could only sit there helplessly as her soft body drew closer and closer.
