Chapter 44
Lover relationship
[Mi: I was busy with work the past few days, and I only realized how many messages you sent me when I logged on today.]
Wei Jiangxue happened to hear the notification sound. After the voice assistant finished reading, she carefully considered her words: 【Thank you for your hard work…】
Before she could finish typing the rest of the message, several more messages popped up on the other end, which the voice assistant read out automatically.
[Mi: Can I take that as you being worried about me?]
[Mi: To be honest, I haven't been doing well lately. I've encountered some... upsetting things, related to my relationships.]
Wei Jiangxue had nothing to do today, so she continued chatting with Mi. It was rare for her sugar daddy to want to confide in her, so Wei Jiangxue felt she had to fulfill her expectations.
Furthermore, Mi and Wei Jiangxue's relationship wasn't exactly romantic. Mi was quiet but generous, offering help whenever Wei Jiangxue needed it, without ever suggesting anything more in private chats, and occasionally giving Wei Jiangxue advice. If Mi didn't have any intention of keeping a virtual pet, then Wei Jiangxue would consider them more like online friends.
[Wei Jiangxue: Is it convenient for you to chat? Maybe talking about your troubles will make you feel better. Of course, if you don't have time, then forget it.]
Mi on the other end seemed to have started talking non-stop, with Wei Jiangxue's message notifications never stopping.
[Mi: Well, I have a friend... okay, I admit, it's actually myself.]
Wei Jiangxue suppressed a laugh and continued reading.
[Mi: I always thought she liked me, but after I confessed, I realized I was completely wrong. She doesn't like me at all. Simply put, she rejected me, and now I don't know how to face her...]
Love is a complicated thing, and Wei Jiangxue doesn't know the situation between Mi and her sweetheart, so it's hard for her to comment on their relationship.
She thought for a moment, then asked another question: "So, are you planning to give up? Or will you persevere?"
Mi: I won't give up.
Mi seems to have quite the perseverance, Wei Jiangxue couldn't help but sigh. During their conversation, she already knew that Mi was an Omega. However, Wei Jiangxue hadn't told the truth and, just like during the live stream, pretended to be an Omega, so Mi had no reservations during the conversation, speaking her mind freely and quite boldly.
Based on Mi's own words, Wei Jiangxue gradually pieced together Mi's image—a super rich, young, and beautiful Omega.
Mi briefly mentioned some of her crush's requirements to Wei Jiangxue. After listening, Wei Jiangxue frowned deeply: "That Alpha lives in your house? Doesn't she have her own place to live? Aren't these conditions a bit too poor?"
[Mi: There's a reason. She's well-off and can live wherever she wants, but I want to support her. You don't need to worry about her; you just need to tell me how I can save our relationship.]
Huh? Wei Jiangxue was stunned for a moment, suddenly feeling a strange sense of déjà vu. But she didn't have time to pay attention to those details, focusing only on helping Mi calm down.
After briefly analyzing the information Mi provided, Wei Jiangxue found the Alpha quite strange. Logically, no one would refuse someone with Mi's identity, but the Alpha did not.
This person is either genuinely naive or has ulterior motives.
Wei Jiangxue didn't believe that there could be an Alpha in the ABO world who didn't want anything and was blind to high-quality Omegas. That person must be plotting something big, like hooking up with a Mi, suppressing Mi, and then swindling all of Mi's property.
It's true what they say: those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly.
In this situation, why should Mi stick to one thing? Aren't there many more Alphas out there?
But Mi clearly couldn't stand hearing that, so Wei Jiangxue could only wish Mi good luck.
[Wei Jiangxue: Although I don't recommend you be devoted to an Alpha like this, I still have some advice for you. First, manage all your assets well, and then ensure you don't act impulsively. Make sure you're rational before taking any action. Next, confirm that everything is in order and you won't be easily deceived before considering romantic relationships. Most importantly, have you researched what kind of person she likes? Since she's unwilling to be your lover, there might be some incompatibility between you two, which needs adjustment. The fact that she's willing to be just friends with you means you're a good person, just lacking something. You need to understand her preferences first, since you're the one pursuing her.]
Mi retracted a message.
The voice assistant read out three words, and Mi retracted the message.
Wei Jiangxue was completely confused; she had only heard "You like...". What was Mi trying to say?
Soon after, the other party edited the message again: "I don't know what kind of person she likes; she's never given me a specific description, but I don't think she's averse to me."
[Wei Jiangxue: Isn't that great? As long as you're sure you're not just overestimating yourself, you can confidently and boldly pursue her. I think the problem between you two is more about communication. She might not actually dislike you. Don't push too hard when you're pursuing her; give her some space to think...]
They chatted for most of the day, and when Wei Jiangxue's throat was parched, Mi seemed to have made up her mind: "Okay, I'll take your advice into consideration."
She then changed the subject and asked if Wei Jiangxue would be doing a live stream today. Mi said she would definitely come to support her.
Wei Jiangxue exchanged a few polite words with Mi before going to get her makeup and hair done.
She had said everything she needed to say. As for whether Mi could win over the man she loved and protect herself, Wei Jiangxue couldn't interfere too much. She only hoped that no one would get hurt in the end.
After spending several hours acting as a relationship advisor, Wei Jiangxue felt utterly exhausted. Out of habit, she opened her chat with Mi Rui'an again, but the other end remained silent.
Wei Jiangxue thought for a moment and decided to try again. She sent a message to the other end: "Hey, I want to try out for the audition for that show you mentioned last time, 'The Voice of Heaven'."
She could have easily filled out and submitted the information online herself, but Mi Rui'an had previously said she could help Wei Jiangxue. If Wei Jiangxue went by herself, she might lose even this one and only legitimate reason for contact.
Of course, this reason is rather clumsy and awkward, and it's obvious that Wei Jiangxue didn't actually mean that.
Therefore, Wei Jiangxue had no hope at all. At worst, she could just shamelessly say something else next time and one day she would be able to call Mi Rui'an back.
However, there was no next time, because this time she achieved her goal. Mi Rui'an replied: 【Okay.】
The two simple words finally put Wei Jiangxue at ease. She held her phone, wanting to say something else, when a new message came from the other end.
[Mi Rui'an: Let's be friends from now on. I'm sorry, I was too presumptuous before.]
[Mi Rui'an: If you feel uncomfortable, I can move out and try to reduce the number of times we see each other. If you need anything, just tell Xiaodong or the housekeeper.]
[Mi Rui'an: I'll be back in a few days to pack my things...]
Wei Jiangxue listened to a few messages with a frown, then asked the voice assistant to stop. Instead of using voice-to-text, she called Mi Rui'an directly.
Just a few seconds later, the call connected on the other end: "..."
Wei Jiangxue cleared her throat, breaking the silence: "You don't need to move out. This is your home. If anyone should move, it should be me. Besides, I don't think there's anything wrong with what happened before. On the contrary, I feel sorry for what happened before. I did a lot of bad things to you and bullied you all the time..."
She didn't care about the OOC level of her character anymore; as long as 233 didn't scream, Wei Jiangxue planned to continue talking.
"This is your home. You can come back whenever you want. I'll leave a light on for you tonight. Come back early; it's not convenient for you to be out alone."
"Thank you for your affection. I never expected someone to tell me 'I like you' so directly. This is the first time I've received such a sentiment, and I'm truly grateful. But unfortunately, I may not be able to give you the kind of feelings you desire. I only see you as a friend..."
Mi Rui'an suddenly interrupted her: "But do friends kiss each other, take off their clothes, and touch each other?"
Wei Jiangxue choked up suddenly: "My sensitive period... it was just an accident, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..."
“No, you don’t need to apologize. I just wanted to say that even during your sensitive period, you didn’t seem completely indifferent to me. At least, you seemed to like my body quite a bit, so how about we give it a try and start as lovers?” Mi Rui’an’s voice sounded a little distorted through the screen, with the sound of pattering rain in the background.
Wei Jiangxue became even more worried when she thought about the sleet forecast for the past few days: "Can we talk again when you come back? It's so cold outside."
She deliberately ignored Mi Rui'an's question, but Mi Rui'an wouldn't let her off the hook: "Why can't we try? I can change whatever you like. You seem to like that little mole on my chest the most, and you're always kissing it during your period..."
Wei Jiangxue almost screamed: "You're still outside, let's go back inside and talk!"
"Don't you want to give it a try with me? Just for a month. Besides, you said you'd grant me one wish, and that's what I want. Let's try to get to know each other for a month," Mi Rui'an replied, seemingly ignoring the question.
Wei Jiangxue gritted her teeth in frustration and began to be led by Mi Rui'an: "So if I try to spend a month with you, are you willing to come back soon? If we are still not compatible by then, we must separate peacefully and neither of us can entangle ourselves anymore."
Mi Rui'an chuckled softly, "Okay, I promise you."
Wei Jiangxue was taken aback. Wasn't it Mi Rui'an who brought it up first? Why does it seem like she's begging Mi Rui'an now?
Now that things have come to this, there's no need to worry about such trivial details. Seeing that she had relented, Wei Jiangxue hurriedly urged Mi Rui'an to go home quickly.
Having probably achieved her goal, Mi Rui'an's voice on the other end softened, no longer sharp: "So you said it, we're lovers now."
Wei Jiangxue gritted her teeth: "Yes, I said it."
It's strange, I've been having relationship problems lately.
Unfortunately, Mi Rui'an wasn't as gentle as Mi. Mi readily accepted Wei Jiangxue's gentle approach, saying she wouldn't push anyone too hard. But Mi Rui'an came out aggressive from the start; anyone who didn't know better would think she was going to devour Wei Jiangxue.
In fact, Mi Rui'an just wanted to have another chance to pursue him.
