Chapter 31: She really had no other choice.

Qi Shaoyou sat in the back seat of the car, not daring to look up at Sister Manman, and could only look at his phone screen.

Ding-dong, a message came through on the screen.

[My dear roommates, I've held back for so long. But I still want to say, the probability that they don't love you is about as high as the orchids we keep in our dorm eventually withering.]

Qi Shaoyou: ...She remembers! The orchid in their dorm! It was a fake flower!

"Are you asking for it?!" Qi Shaoyou's face twisted with anger, feeling as if he were cursed.

[You're done! Resend this now! If you add a bunch of random emojis and send it again, you're dead!] Qi Shaoyou typed fiercely, his agitation making the wound on his right shoulder hurt even more.

The words "The other party is typing..." disappeared after Qi Shaoyou sent the threatening message.

Clearly, the sinking of screens was anticipated.

Actually, I've always had a question. You're only one person, but three people like you.

【Not enough!】A new message came through the screen.

[It seems you don't know how to say anything nice? I suggest you don't say anything here!]

Qi Shaoyou sensed something was wrong, but he obviously couldn't stop the screen from sinking.

Later I realized, two hands and one mouth are just right for a person!

The message sent by Chenping almost made Qi Shaoyou faint.

[I'm begging you! Stop having such a filthy mind all the time!] Qi Shaoyou's lips twitched, wishing he could teleport in front of Chen Ping and slap her phone over!

There's a long queue of people asking me for favors!

[The cat winks!]

Making bad friends was a great misfortune for Qi Shaoyou.

What you're saying is impossible; I already have a complete plan.

Qi Shaoyou was so angry that he sent a long message to Chen Ping despite the pain in his right shoulder.

The content includes, but is not limited to, her hiding her identity in everything she does, her anonymity regarding the proposal for the anti-bite device, and her most recent act of helping Su Yan put on colored contact lenses!

All these conditions point to one thing: Qi Shaoyou is likely to achieve her goal!

After a moment of silence, Qi Shaoyou assumed that she had been persuaded by him.

[Sister You, generally speaking, tops don't care what their bottoms say outside.]

No matter how sweet the words are spoken in public, the person who gets roasted at home is always someone else.

Some principles can be applied in certain situations.

Qi Shaoyou's expression calmed down, and she quickly opened Song Youbai's chat history.

[Ms. Song, I feel I should do something to strengthen your relationship.]

Actually, she quite enjoys watching some movies, but she's too shy to tell you.

This is the movie list.

Then, Qi Shaoyou quickly sent over three of the most terrifying horror movies that he was most afraid of.

After doing all this, Qi Shaoyou took a screenshot and sent it to Chenping.

【How dare you retaliate against me like this! What are you doing!】The message sent by Chenping was filled with shock.

Qi Shaoyou smiled when he saw his friend's wailing.

I won't say things like that again. If I do, I have other methods.

[Insidious JPG]

0527: I always feel that being glued to the screen doesn't necessarily mean suffering; it could also mean secretly enjoying it. After all, watching a horror movie with someone you like is, in a way, a way to strengthen your relationship, right?

I don't know why, but this guy always seems to have this feeling that the harder he tries in relationships, the less he achieves his goals. It's like all his efforts are in vain, and he seems to have a real talent for it.

Knowing that she would definitely get scolded if she said it, 0527 thought for three seconds and decided to use the big shot's name to play a yuri-themed, popular game.

The big shot's name! There must be more to it than meets the eye! Maybe it can even suppress the big shot's romantic luck in real life!

If Qi Shaoyou found out, he'd probably want to take 0527 down with him. Considering he couldn't let the big boss become a pica version of Hannibal, 0527 decided to secretly make the changes.

In short, after Shen Ping's antics, Qi Shaoyou's attention was completely diverted, and her tension eased considerably. Before they knew it, they had arrived home.

When getting out of the car, Liang Man got out first and came over from the driver's seat to help Qi Shaoyou.

Qi Shaoyou injured her right shoulder, so it was difficult for her to sit in the passenger seat and open the door. She wanted to move to the other side of the back seat to open the door with her left hand, so as not to bother Sister Manman.

She was just too slow; before she could even move over, Sister Manman had already opened the car door.

Because there were few people coming and going in the underground parking garage, Liang Man didn't wear a hat or mask, only sunglasses. Her face is small, and the sunglasses completely obscured her expression…

However, Qi Shaoyou could clearly sense that Liang Man was angry. Her lips, which were usually curved in a smile, were now stretched into a straight line.

Thinking about the reason for her injury, Qi Shaoyou found it hard not to feel guilty. Although she wanted to appear in Sister Manman's eyes as a fickle person…

But when something like this actually happens, she really can't be completely justified!

So, in Liang Man's eyes, this is the scene: the person who was always so energetic was now looking down with lowered eyes...

Liang Man helped Qi Shaoyou into the elevator, and the two didn't exchange a single word from the elevator to the door of the apartment.

Feeling a bit irritable, Liang Man never expected to experience this emotion.

After the two of them were seated on the sofa, Qi Shaoyou secretly wondered to himself. This shouldn't be happening; Sister Manman should have scolded her for what she did.

Why...don't you scold her?

Every minute sitting here was agonizing for Qi Shaoyou.

Liang Man glanced over and saw that the child was so tense that he was gripping the edge of the pillow with both hands and his eyes were starting to glaze over.

Yes, are you afraid of scolding her?

Of course not, Qi Shaoyou's blank stare means he's having a meltdown with 0527.

Why?! Why isn't she yelling at me yet? My plan was for Sister Manman to yell at me, then I'd tell her I love her, we'd have a huge fight, and then I'd run away from home.

[If they don't scold me, how am I supposed to run away from home?]

0527 pondered for a while, and then considered the characteristics of the expert.

Hey bro, I think your idea is great. But I doubt Sister Manman would scold you...

She's such a gentle person! I find it hard to imagine how she could have such a big argument with you.

Qi Shaoyou snorted coldly and said, "You just don't understand!"

[If I were to unleash an astonishing possessiveness and become a terrifying yandere type of woman, Sister Manman would definitely find it hard to accept!]

[Furthermore, I've already prepared my explanation. I'll say that the reason I marked other omegas was because I wanted her to be jealous.]

[Sister Manman is so kind! She'll definitely be unhappy and think I'm wrong, and that's how we ended up arguing, right?]

0527 pondered for a moment, his thoughts carried away by Qi Shaoyou. Perhaps this time, the big shot wasn't wrong?

What if?

"Drink some hot water. Auntie will be here to cook soon. You have a wound, so you can't eat greasy or spicy food. Eat something light for now."

Alright! The conversation has finally begun! Qi Shaoyou perked up.

"Don't you care how I got injured?" Qi Shaoyou's question made Liang Man hesitate for a moment before sitting back down.

Before she could speak, Qi Shaoyou uttered his next sentence.

"I was temporarily tagged by an omega when I got bitten like this."

0527 marvels at the art of speaking; those who don't know better might think Qi Shaoyou was forcing an omega.

In reality, she was the one who was forced...

"Is that right, Sister Manman, you won't care what I do?" Qi Shaoyou suddenly stood up from the sofa. She hadn't gotten used to the wound on her right shoulder yet, and when she stood up, she pushed herself up with her hand, which pulled at the wound.

The pain brought tears to her eyes. When she was bitten, Qi Shaoyou was slightly tipsy from his pheromones, so it didn't hurt much.

However, she had already begun to gradually regain her sense of pain once the wound was bandaged. This time, the pain was so intense that she almost cried.

If she weren't trying to start an argument right now, she really wanted to take a painkiller first!

She had to hold back! The perfectly timed tears and the wronged expression were just the right moment to burst forth.

Come on, she's ready to face Sister Manman's wrath!

The next second, Qi Shaoyou fell into a warm embrace filled with the scent of jasmine.

"How can you say that about yourself? Shaoyou, you're not that kind of person."

"Your teacher Song told me that you had no choice but to mark that omega."

"Don't be too hard on yourself, and don't say that about yourself out of spite."

When Liang Man hugged Qi Shaoyou, she deliberately avoided his right shoulder. She gently wrapped her arms around his waist and slowly patted his back.

"If you're unhappy, you can talk to Sister Manman. But you're not allowed to say bad things about yourself." It would be a lie to say that Liang Man's heart was completely unmoved.

When she saw Qi Shaoyou say those words, she knew that the child was also suffering because of her rejection. And because of this suffering, she was even attacking herself, trying to mold herself into a bad person.

Qi Shaoyou cried, 0527 was stunned, and the judgment system sounded.

[Task issued: Please hug one of the people you are tasked with for five minutes.]

Alright, now that this task has been assigned, Qi Shaoyou can't push Sister Manman away right now. But even if he did, he'd probably be mistaken for going somewhere else...

The pain in her shoulder and the ruthlessness of the judgment system brought tears to Qi Shaoyou's eyes as she hugged Sister Manman. Although she was already used to being shocked by the judgment system, she still didn't want to actively seek out shocks when she was injured.

Song Youbai! I hate you! Why do you tell everyone everything?! Honestly stating what happened doesn't mean telling everyone everything!

How on earth did she manage to tell Sister Manman about this while protecting Shen Mingjiao's privacy?!

"Can't you control your wife, Chen Ping?!" Qi Shaoyou wanted nothing more than to grab her phone and unleash a torrent of abuse. Unfortunately, she had to complete her mission first.

Of course, Sister Manman's embrace is still very warm and healing.

The way this event unfolded made 0527 realize that while the big boss might not accept his fate, she had to.

0527 swore that she would trust the big boss everywhere else. But when it came to matters of the heart, if she ever trusted Qi Shaoyou again, she'd turn into a carbon-based being!

At the same time, Shen Mingjiao, who had been unconscious, woke up. She felt as if something had changed, and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was her mother.

"Jiaojiao is awake. Is anything bothering you?" Mrs. Shen asked her daughter with concern.

"I don't feel uncomfortable without my mother."

"But I have a question. Do we have enough money to buy a small island?" Shen Mingjiao's sudden question startled Shen's mother.

"Suddenly, I really, really need a small island."

She needed a quiet environment to have a proper talk with Qi Shaoyou. Ideally, it would always be just the two of them.

Qi Shaoyou: I hate Teacher Song! Chenping, you better control your wife! [Cracked]
