Chapter 37

Qiao Yu really doesn't remember any Aunt Bai.

With a forced laugh and a pout, Qiao Yu shamelessly snuggled closer to Lu Shangyi, trying to avoid the gazes of Ye Yunjian and Song Wanzi. The small bundle nestled against her hand like a puppy seeking warmth in winter, its entire being radiating dependence on her.

Lu Shangyi raised an eyebrow slightly. So she's not afraid of him anymore?

Qiao Yu frowned and racked her brains, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember who the other person was. She trembled and looked at Meng E. Just as Qiao Yu was about to ask Meng E to describe the other person's appearance, Bai Yiyu had already bypassed Meng E and appeared in her line of sight with a bright and clear face.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, illuminating her tall figure and deep, sculpted features. Her pristine white shirt looked as if it had been bleached, spotless and immaculate. Coupled with the faint smile on her lips, Qiao Yu showed absolutely no trace of the aggression or invasiveness that an alpha should possess.

Staring blankly at the other person's face, Qiao Yu finally remembered that this was the woman who had only spoken two or three words to her before.

The girl looked like she suddenly understood. Ye Yunjian lazily changed his posture, his deep gaze casually glancing at Bai Yiyu, his tone very unwelcoming, "What are you doing here?"

Bai Yiyu first glanced at Qiao Yu, who was standing close to Lu Shangyi, then met Ye Yunjian's gaze. She said softly with a gentle smile, "A friend asked me to come and take care of Yuyu."

Yu Yu? Ye Yunjian's expression darkened slightly, as if he was displeased. They had only met a few times, yet she was calling him so affectionately.

Bai Yiyu turned her head, a faint smile on her face, and said to Qiao Yu, "Your mother and I are friends. You can just tell me if you need anything in the future."

As the woman's soft voice faded, Qiao Yu keenly sensed the air pressure around her drop several degrees, a tense atmosphere gripping her. Ye Yunjian's gaze was particularly unfriendly. Qiao Yu blinked, glanced at Bai Yiyu, then at Ye Yunjian, and finally feigned discomfort, closing her eyes and leaning decisively into Lu Shangyi's arms. "Sister Lu, my head hurts so much."

Ye Yunjian and Song Wanzi turned to look at him. What kind of headache is this?

The child insisted he wasn't feeling well and quickly pressed the call button by the bed. When the doctor arrived, he ruthlessly kicked all three alphas out of the room. The doctor's expression was serious, and his words were blunt, "Don't you know the patient just differentiated? Haven't you considered the harm you might cause the patient with such strong pheromones?"

He specifically criticized Ye Yunjian and Bai Yiyu, saying, "You two don't look young anymore, how come you don't understand such a simple principle?"

Upon hearing this, Song Wanzi gave a half-smile, but after watching the show for less than two seconds, the doctor turned around and lectured her more sternly than Ye Yunjian and Bai Yiyu: "You too, after filming so many dramas, don't you even know this basic common sense?"

Song Wanzi's upturned lips suddenly fell back down, "..."

The three fearsome alphas didn't dare utter a word in response to the doctor's criticism, appearing extremely obedient. Meng E stood trembling to the side, holding her breath, afraid of inadvertently attracting their attention.

Ye Yunjian lifted her eyelids slightly. Perhaps the doctor was also intimidated by her gaze, so he spoke more tactfully, "If you want to see Yuyu, come back in a couple of days. Yuyu still needs to be hospitalized for observation for a few more days."

Another one named Yuyu? The three of them looked up at the same time. Where did you come from, you vixen?

Seeing the three alphas being lectured by the EGA doctor unintentionally, Meng E felt a huge "danger" looming over her head. After the doctor turned and entered the ward, Meng E hurriedly followed behind, trying to slip away, but a hand deftly reached out and stopped her.

Song Wanzi's slender figure swept over with a powerful aura, "Little friend, I have a few questions for you."

Meng E's heart stopped beating on the spot.

Ye Yunjian raised his eyelids and strode towards Meng E with his long legs, "What a coincidence, I also have something I want to ask you."

Tang Shu grew increasingly angry. Wasn't leaving after being scolded by Qiao Yu just proof that she was guilty? She immediately ordered the driver to turn around, gritted her teeth, and rolled up her sleeves. Today, she was determined to fight Qiao Yu to the death.

But as soon as she stepped out of the hospital elevator, she noticed that something was wrong with the scene outside Qiao Yu's ward.

That's… Her eyes widened slightly. Why were Ye Yunjian, Song Wanzi, and Aunt Bai Yiyu all here to see Qiao Yu? When did Qiao Yu attract so many alphas? Her gaze shifted, and she saw Meng E, who was cornered by Song Wanzi, looking helpless. She instinctively raised her voice and asked, "What do you want to do to her?"

Meng E, being an EGA, had a gentle personality and lacked the powerful family background of Tang Shu, so she dared not speak up even if she was bullied. Tang Shu quickly strode over and pulled the girl behind her, warily scrutinizing the three of them, "Don't even think about bullying her."

"Bully her?" Song Wanzi raised an eyebrow slightly, her smile suddenly brightening. She glanced at Ye Yunjian slowly and said with a smile in her voice, "Another one."

She sized up the wary Tang Shu with a satisfied look in her eyes, "This one knows Yu Yu much better than my little fan."

Including Tang Shu within her territory, Song Wanzi spoke clearly to Tang Shu with her red lips: "Let's go, you can also speak to me privately."

Tang Shu: "?"

The area outside the ward quickly quieted down, and Qiao Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but she still craned her neck to look around anxiously, "Have they all left?"

The doctor looked at her irritably. "They're all gone." She said while examining Qiao Yu, "And you, at such a young age, why are you learning to be a slut and attract attention? It's one thing to seduce EGAs, but you don't even spare Alphas."

"Now look what you've done. Let's see what you're going to do next."

Qiao Yu was indignant and wanted to retort, but upon closer reflection, she realized that whether it was Song Wanzi, Ye Yunjian, or Bai Yiyu, she had been blinded by their good looks and actively pursued them. Silently shutting her mouth, Qiao Yu could only complain to the system, "Beauty is a curse, beauty is a curse."

Subconsciously, Qiao Yu clung even tighter to Lu Shangyi, looking up at her with pleading eyes, "Sister Lu, you're also an EGA, why aren't you afraid of Aunt Ye and the others?"

Lu Shangyi glanced at her lightly and indifferently, speaking just as bluntly, "I don't flirt around."

Qiao Yu pursed her lips, “…I’ve brought this humiliation upon myself.”

The hotel was bustling with activity. Mrs. Qiao was surrounded by a throng of wealthy housewives, making it difficult for her to move. The more Mrs. Qiao looked around, the more uncomfortable she felt. Squeezing her way to Mrs. Qiao's side, Mrs. Qiao shooed away the women surrounding her and said, "Sister-in-law, I have several children in my hometown who are alphas. How about I have them come over to meet Yu Yu another day?"

"What if these kids fall for Yuyu? Wouldn't that make us even closer relatives?"

Madam Qiao turned to look at her, her beautiful face expressionless. Aunt Qiao, feeling somewhat embarrassed by her gaze, was secretly annoyed by Madam Qiao's high standards and condescending attitude when the other woman slowly spoke, "It's fine."

Aunt Qiao was overjoyed, and she couldn't hide her smugness. "Then I'll go and tell them to prepare."

Aunt Qiao glanced provocatively at Aunt Qiao San not far away, and sneered, "Wait until that kid from back home wins over Qiao Yu, then let's see how arrogant you can be."

Mrs. Qiao watched her second aunt leave with a detached gaze, a cold smile curving her red lips. The other ladies quickly chimed in, "Oh, Mrs. Qiao, what kind of good alpha could a woman from the countryside possibly know? You should think more about my child."

"My child has a good personality, good character, good grades, and is obedient. If Yuyu tells her to go east, she will never dare to go west; if Yuyu tells her to kneel, she will never dare to stand..."

"Nonsense! Your kid has been dating for a long time, changing girlfriends like he changes clothes every day. How dare you say that to Mrs. Qiao?"

"Isn't your family the same? He got a female classmate pregnant at such a young age. You must have spent a lot of money over the years to clean up these troubles for your son."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Mrs. Qiao calmly said, "What I say doesn't count."

She smiled gently, "It only counts if Yu Yu likes it."

Qiao Yu suddenly noticed her phone ringing incessantly. Looking at it with a puzzled expression, she saw several new friend requests. Blinking in confusion, she opened the EGA group chat. "Who gave my WeChat ID to someone else?"

The quiet group chat suddenly became lively. "How could that be, sister? We're too busy being wary of you, how could we introduce you to someone else?"

"That's right, sister. Your fighting power is enough to take down all the alphas in the capital in one go. How could we possibly recommend your business card to an alpha we know?"

"You got an alpha so quickly? But thinking about it, it's not that unusual. After all, I've never seen any sister in the group be as arrogant as you when they differentiated."

"Oh dear, lovers turned into rivals. Our relationship changed so quickly. You're so heartless, girl."

Qiao Yu's eyelids twitched violently. How malicious these people were! They couldn't stand not rubbing salt in her wounds. With a blank expression, she placed her phone face down on the table. Looking up, she saw Lu Shangyi also staring at his phone, his expression serious, his aura radiating an aura of unapproachability.

My heart skipped a beat. Had Sister Lu seen the message I posted in the group chat again?

Lu Shangyi quietly looked at the message Chu Mi sent: Lu Shenghui went to get a paternity test.

Chu Mi was getting anxious as she waited for a reply for a long time. "Although the results won't be out for a few more days, if he really does have an alpha daughter who's living on the streets, things will be even more difficult for you. Those old men in the company are shameless. Even if we have dirt on them, we might still end up with a lose-lose situation."

Her eyelashes drooped down in unison, and Lu Shangyi moved her fingers slightly. "It's alright."

"It's alright?" Chu Mi's eyes widened in disbelief. Was this woman blinded by lust?

Qiao Yu noticed Lu Shangyi's fingers twitching several times, but there was no reply from Lu Shangyi in the group chat. Puzzled, she turned around, still holding her phone. Had Lu Shangyi switched to an alternate account?

As she was pondering, the woman, radiating a chilling aura, suddenly approached. Her hot breath brushed against Qiao Yu's skin, her red lips lightly brushing against her earlobe, and her voice, carrying a seductive undertone, softly said, "No early romances allowed."

The author has something to say: Early romantic relationships are not allowed, but not entirely forbidden.

I was extremely sleepy after getting the vaccine and couldn't wake up properly. My stomach also hurt a bit, so that's all I can update for today.
