Scum A with a Sweet Black Lotus O – Chapter 168
by Little PandaShe and Her · Side CP
Zhao Yujun x Lu Ningyan ③
This time, Zhao Yujun didn’t bow her head again.
Argue, make up, be sweet.
Argue again, make up again, be sweet again.
From their student days to adulthood, this cycle ran through the entire course of their love. It seemed the relationship between Zhao Yujun and Lu Ningyan had always been this way.
After making up once more, Zhao Yujun made a clear change.
She stopped asking about Lu Ningyan’s daily whereabouts, giving her lover more personal space. At the same time, she was no longer so aimless and began to take part in some of her family’s company projects.
She became busy and no longer tied Lu Ningyan down all day. Their relationship truly became a sweet dessert to enjoy after a busy life.
A delicate balance.
Everything was developing in the direction Lu Ningyan wanted. Zhao Yujun gradually adapted and even felt a bit of relief at times. And yet, the first one to express dissatisfaction was Lu Ningyan.
As if history were repeating itself, Lu Ningyan saw her walking with another Omega.
It was laughable, really.
Lu Ningyan could go out for drinks and meals with her own colleagues and friends, demanding that Zhao Yujun not ask too many questions and be tolerant. Yet the moment she saw another Omega by Zhao Yujun’s side, she was the first to jump out and question her.
“That’s Fu Chaoyun’s Omega. They’re already engaged. We ran into each other to discuss work-related matters and just exchanged a few words while waiting for the elevator,” Zhao Yujun explained.
“Is that so.”
Lu Ningyan’s expression froze, looking a little awkward.
“Sorry.”
But soon enough, she found a new angle. “I think you’ve changed recently.”
“What?” Zhao Yujun’s mind couldn’t quite keep up.
“You don’t seem to care about me as much anymore.”
“…”
Her answer was Zhao Yujun’s long silence.
She wanted to say, weren’t all these changes what you demanded? I suppressed my own feelings to get to this point, and now all I get is your blame.
It was as if nothing she did could ever satisfy the other person.
—The Omega was like someone forcing her to fall with them, to sink deep into a tormenting, low-tide of emotion.
So they could struggle bitterly together in the mire.
With her for company, she naturally wouldn’t be lonely anymore.
Lu Ningyan seemed to have just said it casually. Soon, her hand was on Zhao Yujun’s neck. “Wanna do it?”
A few light caresses, and the air grew thick with intimacy. After all, ever since they had gotten back together, their bodies had grown very accustomed to each other.
Just like every time before.
And also as if to cover up her recent slip of the tongue.
This time, however, Zhao Yujun pulled her hand away with some force.
After they reconciled, Lu Ningyan had said she preferred how Zhao Yujun looked with long hair, so Zhao Yujun had started growing it out. Right now, it hadn’t fully grown back, giving her a somewhat awkward look.
Her hair wasn’t fine and soft, but it wasn’t so coarse that it poked people. Right now, the newly grown strands fell against her neck, pricking her skin with a throbbing itch.
And pain.
The Alpha’s dark eyes gazed over. Zhao Yujun asked, “What is it that you really want?”
“What?”
“What exactly do you want me to do to be satisfied?”
The hand she had grabbed instantly went cold. “What do you mean by that?”
Two people hiding beneath a veneer of harmony and gentleness—once all the barbs were out, their arguments would only be more intense than ever before.
The argument ended, once again, with the scene of Lu Ningyan threatening to break up in a fit of pique.
Exactly the same.
Only this time.
Zhao Yujun didn’t bow her head again.
The author has something to say:
