Scum A with a Sweet Black Lotus O – Chapter 59

A kiss… on the Ferris wheel^^

In the darkness.

The intense breathing gradually calmed down, all sensory stimulations eventually returning to reality.

            

Pei Xuezhi regained her rationality.

The series of experiences from her previous life ultimately had their impact on her. Although she tried to maintain consciousness and calmness, those inherent and later-developed dark aspects would suddenly emerge.

Shattering all the previous beauty into pieces.

            

Although she had apologized, Pei Xuezhi knew those words were too light. At this moment, she didn’t dare to look at Fu Chaoyun’s reaction, only silently moving her head and hands away.

The alpha who had been restrained by her turned around, but her first reaction was to grab Pei Xuezhi’s hand.

Don’t go!

            

Pei Xuezhi, almost silently, still raised her eyes to look, only to see that Fu Chaoyun’s face showed no trace of fear. Instead, her pupils sparkled, wearing an obvious smile.

She tilted her head, “Zhizhi gave me a treat, why should I be afraid?”

Seeing her eyes, Pei Xuezhi knew this wasn’t fake comfort.

            

But…

Was Fu Chaoyun really that thick-skinned? Was she truly not afraid at all? Had she still not realized her previous abnormal behavior?

Pei Xuezhi couldn’t understand, so she didn’t answer.

            

Fu Chaoyun slightly moved her limbs; she had really just stood there stiffly earlier, letting Pei Xuezhi do as she pleased.

“Zhizhi,” she called out and then asked, “Is this enough now?”

“…”

            

“Want a bit more?”

Pei Xuezhi had no choice, “Enough.” When speaking, her voice still carried a deep softness and darkness.

“…Oh.”

            

Fu Chaoyun responded, unclear whether she understood or felt regret, then released her hand. Before Pei Xuezhi could feel the emptiness in her heart, she started rummaging through Pei Xuezhi’s small bag.

Usually, Pei Xuezhi would certainly ask what the other person was doing, but now she just watched Fu Chaoyun’s movements.

In a moment, she took out something.

            

It was too dark to see the words on it, but judging by the size, it seemed to be the sunscreen spray that Pei Xuezhi carried—for Fu Chaoyun’s use.

That made sense, they would be going outside again soon.

However.

            

Fu Chaoyun raised that thing and first sprayed it at Pei Xuezhi.

Pei Xuezhi, still somewhat gloomy and dejected: …?

She quickly realized this wasn’t sunscreen spray, but rather a suppressant of similar size.

            

Fu Chaoyun sprayed while saying, “The pheromone scent on Zhizhi is too strong, they’ll definitely notice if we go out like this.”

Fu Chaoyun typically traveled empty-handed, rarely carrying bags. However, Pei Xuezhi, perhaps due to her student status, often carried various textbooks and would frequently have a bag of some size.

Given her cold and distant temperament, having an extra item didn’t seem strange at all.

            

Today at the amusement park was just such a case.

Fu Chaoyun hadn’t tried to take over; she had only asked Pei Xuezhi to carry something for her when getting off the car. Pei Xuezhi hadn’t looked closely before stuffing it in, never expecting it to be suppressant.

As everyone knows, alphas don’t have sensitive periods. They only react to omega’s sensitive periods, so they don’t need preparation beforehand. It wasn’t Pei Xuezhi’s sensitive period recently either, so she hadn’t prepared anything.

            

But why did Fu Chaoyun carry such a thing?

Having this thought, Pei Xuezhi actually asked.

“To prevent accidents, just in case,” Fu Chaoyun said.

            

“?”

“I told Zhizhi when we first met, right? In this society, alphas also need to protect themselves well. I’m fine, but what if there happens to be an omega in their sensitive period nearby?”

Fu Chaoyun said softly, still somewhat alarmed, “Better to be careful.”

            

First met.

Pei Xuezhi noticed this key point, so indeed… her judgment hadn’t been wrong at all.

“Miss Fu is really cautious,” she remarked.

            

“Of course!”

Fu Chaoyun glanced up at her, seemingly slightly dissatisfied that Pei Xuezhi wasn’t calling her “jiejie” anymore, “Zhizhi needs to be careful too!”

“…Mm?”

            

“Although you’re not in your sensitive period these days, what if something unexpected happens? You should always carry suppressants with you.”

Pei Xuezhi was somewhat incredulous, “You… remember my sensitive period?”

“Mm-hmm~” Fu Chaoyun was quite proud, “Since that first meeting, I’ve always said one must be vigilant…”

            

Pei Xuezhi looked at the alpha before her, and unknowingly, her previous gloomy mood had mostly dissipated, becoming bright.

She interrupted Fu Chaoyun’s rambling, “Miss Fu.”

“What?”

            

“The only time anyone had ill intentions toward me—” Pei Xuezhi lowered her voice, “was that time with you.”

!

Fu Chaoyun immediately went on high alert, “I told you, I was set up that time! I didn’t know anything!!”

            

Pei Xuezhi allowed Fu Chaoyun to “do as she pleased”—referring to spraying the suppressant, while her fingertip lightly played with a strand of hair that had fallen from Fu Chaoyun’s ponytail.

“Is that so?”

“Don’t slander a good person, I’m still a virgin alpha!!”

            

Hearing this big revelation, Pei Xuezhi finally couldn’t suppress a light laugh, “I believe jiejie.”

The form of address had changed back, making Fu Chaoyun slightly relieved, but then came the next line—

“Please also keep your pure body intact, jiejie.”

            

Fu Chaoyun glanced up, her expression seeming to say “Do you even need to tell me that?” But suddenly, a flash appeared in her eyes, and she put on a somewhat aggrieved, resentful expression.

“What’s wrong?”

Fu Chaoyun responded dejectedly, “I’m not pure anymore.”

            

“What?”

Pei Xuezhi’s voice carried a hint of ferocity. In the darkness, Fu Chaoyun leaned close to Pei Xuezhi’s ear.

“I was pure before, but now Zhizhi has kissed me, has done this and that…”

            

The ambiguous tone resonating by her ear, though just a few words, brought about an even more intense reaction than when she had been repeatedly “bullying” someone earlier.

She had used the suppressant, but Fu Chaoyun hadn’t yet. Even though she had been slightly affected during the process, that rich, mellow wine scent couldn’t be countered so easily.

Pei Xuezhi inhaled the scent, her eyes seeming to deepen, but this time she didn’t lose control. Fortunately, she maintained an expressionless face most of the time, so she could still keep her composure.

            

“Mm.”

“I will…” be responsible.

Before she could finish the last three words, Fu Chaoyun’s laughter interrupted her, poking Pei Xuezhi’s arm.

            

“Zhizhi is so cute. Alright, now it’s Zhizhi’s turn to spray me.”

“Okay.”

Pei Xuezhi took it, also letting go of the previous half-finished topic. The originally ambiguous and romantic atmosphere gradually faded, and both returned to normal.

            

Pei Xuezhi suddenly thought of something, “You get drunk from one sip of alcohol, so what happens when you smell your own pheromones?”

Fu Chaoyun covered her ears, really not wanting to hear about this dark history, but seeing Pei Xuezhi’s serious expression, she thought about it.

“No effect.”

            

“Perhaps it’s like how people who get carsick don’t get sick when they’re driving?”

Pei Xuezhi: “…”

The suppressant was odorless, and after their friendly mutual assistance, the excessive pheromone scents on both of them were suppressed.

            

It was fortunate that Pei Xuezhi hadn’t bitten Fu Chaoyun’s gland, otherwise, the situation might have become uncontrollable.

“We’ve been away from the cameras for a long time, we should go back.”

“Mm.”

            

Perhaps because of the earlier kiss, Pei Xuezhi kept unconsciously looking at Fu Chaoyun’s nape, hesitantly speaking.

“Do you want to let your hair down?”

“Ah?” Fu Chaoyun belatedly touched her neck, “Is it obvious?”

            

Pei Xuezhi thought for a moment, “It shouldn’t be.”

She had only lightly brushed her lips against it, like a dragonfly touching water, without biting or sucking, so logically there shouldn’t be any marks.

Fu Chaoyun’s skin appeared delicate; not all alphas were rough-skinned and physically maxed out. She was quite sensitive!

            

Moreover, her hair was thick and fluffy. Even tied up, the ends tilted down and spread out, enough to cover most marks. Surely no one would be rude enough to keep staring at someone else’s gland area on their nape?

“Let’s leave it like this then.” Fu Chaoyun said casually, “The weather is so hot, having all my hair down would be suffocating.”

“Mm.”

            

Fu Chaoyun spoke while walking, her expression excited, “Shall we go solve the haunted house mystery now?”

“Sure.”

Somehow Fu Chaoyun suddenly thought of something, “Zhizhi.”

            

“Mm?”

“Next time if I grab the wrong person again, when Zhizhi comes to heroically save this beauty… could you perhaps kiss some other places too?”

Other places?

            

The alpha’s most private gland had already been kissed, yet she wanted to kiss there. At this moment, they reached the doorway. Pei Xuezhi opened the door, letting in a streak of light. She stood sideways, and that light happened to fall on Fu Chaoyun’s lips.

Making those lips appear especially alluring and bewitching.

But thinking of what the other had just said, Pei Xuezhi’s expression instantly turned cold, “You can try.”

            

“…”

Thanks, no more thoughts about that.

Just as the two reached the light source, the venue’s broadcast suddenly announced that this batch of visitors had spent their full forty minutes in the haunted house, and the experience time was over – they needed to leave.

            

Fu Chaoyun: “…”

Pei Xuezhi: “…”

Just before leaving the haunted house, the two cameramen finally found their respective guests again, bringing them back on camera.

            

But the livestream comment section had already exploded with criticism:

【What kind of dating show is this? Every time something exciting is about to happen between them alone, the cameras can’t see anything. What’s the point of this show, just shut it down already!】

【I still don’t understand, how did they suddenly disappear?!】

            

【What’s not to understand? The first time Pei Xuezhi disappeared suddenly, so this second time must be Pei Xuezhi pulling Fu Chaoyun away to hide, who knows what they did in secret.】

【My CP is giving out sugar in secret without letting us see, I’m angry!!】

【Whatever, when the camera disappears we’ll just assume these two did something they didn’t want others to see. Heh, we can see cheek kisses and everything, so what could be so secretive?】

            

【Explode it! Explode it all!! [爆炒 | bàochǎo | internet slang for intensely discussing/shipping]】

【The explosion may be late but it’s here :)】

【Um… the internet isn’t lawless, put some pants on, sisters!】

            

【…Am I the only one who cares about the haunted house mystery? Did Fu Chaoyun and Pei Xuezhi solve it?】

Outside, people were asking about this point too. Perhaps because Pei Xuezhi appeared cold and aloof, Fu Chaoyun seemed more approachable, so they all directed their questions to Fu Chaoyun.

?

            

How would Fu Chaoyun know? She lightly coughed twice and deflected, “We’re livestreaming, and for future visitors to have a better experience, I won’t say anything. If you’re interested, everyone can come experience it themselves.”

【Nothing to say at all!】

【Haunted House—hand over that sponsorship money!】

            

【Really can promote products anywhere, huh??】

It was almost past five when they left the haunted house. Since Qin Zhenyan had written for a full day, they still had the Ferris wheel activity in the evening.

They ate a light dinner at the amusement park’s restaurant. The two injured parties, Tang Ying and Qi Changfeng, had also returned with their caretakers.

            

Compared to Qin Zhenyan, Tang Ying, the ex-girlfriend, was actually quite quiet and hadn’t caused any drama.

However, during the haunted house visit, Qin Zhenyan had been scared, completely shattering his carefully constructed elite image.

Unlike Fu Chaoyun, who had broken character countless times and no longer cared, Qin Zhenyan still had his pride. Now, whether unable to recover or unable to face it, he had also become quiet as a chicken.

            

As for Qi Changfeng, upon hearing about Fu Chaoyun’s screen blackout incident, he beat his chest in regret.

“What a loss! If I’d known, I should have gone too!”

His pitiful act had worked quite well, but with Xia Shiyi unexpectedly added to the mix, things weren’t so good anymore.

            

Always one step behind, Qi Changfeng was extremely regretful.

Beside him, Ni Jiaojiao calmly put down her chopsticks and laughed, “I’m just an ordinary beta, I couldn’t possibly take care of two tall and strong alphas.”

“…”

            

The two alphas in the trio instantly became quiet as chickens.

As night fell and the weather was no longer as scorching as during the day, the group boarded the Ferris wheel.

Qi, Ni, and Xia remained a trio.

            

Qin Zhenyan’s expression wasn’t good; since leaving the haunted house, he hadn’t spoken to Pei Xuezhi again, not even glancing her way.

Fu Chaoyun was in an extremely good mood.

She sat on the same side as Pei Xuezhi, not looking at anyone, humming an off-key tune with her tone-deaf voice while turning her head to look at the night view outside.

            

Her amber eyes reflected the pitch-black night and the lights of countless homes, dancing with particular warmth.

She watched the scenery, Pei Xuezhi watched her.

Suddenly Fu Chaoyun turned her head, catching Pei Xuezhi red-handed—though the latter showed no intention of avoiding her gaze.

            

“There won’t be any more annoying people in the future!”

Pei Xuezhi smiled lightly.

She naturally knew Fu Chaoyun was referring to Qin Zhenyan, who had been severely impacted by these events, yet she still responded with a “Yes.”

            

Before Fu Chaoyun’s joy could reach its peak, Pei Xuezhi added, “But Miss Fu’s situation doesn’t seem resolved yet.”

Now just hearing “Miss Fu,” Fu Chaoyun’s head hurt, and she covered her ears.

“It will be resolved, it will be resolved.”

            

Pei Xuezhi’s smile slightly faded as she just looked at her, silent.

Fu Chaoyun looked out the window again, obviously changing the topic, “Has Zhizhi heard of a legend? When the Ferris wheel reaches its highest point, if a couple kisses, they’ll be happy forever.”

Pei Xuezhi didn’t want to humor Fu Chaoyun’s ancient “Qing Dynasty romantic strategy”, yet that person turned her head and looked at her with pitiful eyes.

            

“Miss Fu, this is just the amusement park’s marketing tactic. Trust science, and—”

“These are all outdated, very tacky.”

Pei “Romance Destroyer” Xuezhi shot down the idea.

            

“Is it really that tacky?”

“Really.” Pei Xuezhi’s tone was firm, “Ex-tre-me-ly tacky.”

“Wuwuwu…”

            

Pei Xuezhi looked at the fake-crying person beside her, then looked away, just considering whether to comfort the dejected kitty when suddenly she felt a force pressing on the back of her head, pulling her forward.

And then.

A warmth on her lips, Fu Chaoyun’s exquisite, brilliant face growing larger before her eyes.

            

Just a touch between lips, a dragonfly-touching-water kiss, fleeting.

Afterward.

Fu Chaoyun pulled back slightly, but not too far. At this distance, Pei Xuezhi could even see her eyelashes trembling slightly as she smiled.

            

She tilted her head, red lips curling into a faint smile. Outside the window, countless lights and stars scattered into her smiling eyes.

Clear and bright, blazing yet warm.

The cameraman hadn’t followed them onto the Ferris wheel, only setting up a camera. Now the alpha covered the camera with one hand, completely ignoring the grumbling inside, while her other hand rested on Pei Xuezhi’s hair tie, gently pulling—

            

A cascade of black hair fell down, some strands entangling with Fu Chaoyun’s fingertips and the back of her hand.

Transforming into threads of love.

Fine, soft, harmless… yet slowly, invisibly, silently completely entwining around one!

            

The alpha’s natural dominance swept over.

She looked at Fu Chaoyun, and Fu Chaoyun looked at her, both deeply reflected in each other’s eyes, inseparable.

At this moment, Pei Xuezhi suddenly realized that her earlier dominance in the haunted house had been completely because Fu Chaoyun willingly handed over control.

            

Just as she herself now, aware yet offering no resistance.

“But Teacher Pei—”

Fu Chaoyun leaned in, her voice low and soft, full of enchantment, “I still want to try~”
