The Amnesiac Omega Who Reels Me In Every Day – Chapter 43
by Little PandaDifferentiating into an Alpha
Unbelievable
Su Yi stumbled out of the room, his mind in a fog. When he saw Jiang Jinyi holding her phone to make a call, he assumed she was reporting him to the police. Hot rage surged in his chest, and he slapped the device right out of her hand.
Struck with such brute force, Jiang Jinyi’s already weak body collapsed straight onto the floor. She let out a sharp cry of pain.
Su Yi’s face twisted into a snarl. “Jiang Jinyi, I haven’t even gone looking for you yet, and you dare cross me?!”
“What do you think you’re doing?!” At the sight, Xu An broke free from the staff’s hold, lunged forward, and kicked Su Yi again. “Fuck your mother! Is Jiang Jinyi someone you can lay your hands on?!”
The young lady was terrified of pain; she was far too fragile to handle a fall like that.
“How are you? Are you alright?” Xu An wanted to help her up, but Jiang Jinyi wouldn’t let her touch her. With reddened eyes, she scrambled to look for her phone.
Xu An helped her find it. The screen was completely shattered, and no matter how many times she pressed the power button, it wouldn’t turn on.
Vaguely sensing that she had been affected by the pheromone disruption agent, with her gland growing increasingly uncomfortable and strange, Jiang Jinyi had only one single thought in her mind and heart.
She wanted Jiang Youwan. She had to find Jiang Youwan.
She knew that as long as Jiang Youwan was there, she had nothing to fear.
When an Alpha or Omega fell into a heat, a rut, or some kind of danger, they would always seek out the person who could give them an absolute sense of security.
Perhaps a lover, perhaps family, perhaps…
Jiang Jinyi couldn’t hear the arguments of the people around them. She clutched Xu An, looking up at her as she gasped out, “Jiejie… help me find Jiejie…”
Seeing her like this, Xu An was stunned.
Just what had Jiang Youwan done to Jiang Jinyi? Jiang Jinyi had actually grown so dependent on her.
To think she would rely on her to such an extent.
Xu An couldn’t help but wonder what Jiang Jinyi would feel if she recovered her memories in the future.
“Alright, let’s find your Jiejie.” Xu An turned around to make a call to Youwan, explaining the current situation. Once she was done, she turned back and said, “Okay, I called your Jiejie. First, go wait inside the room, okay—”
“Fuck, where did she go?!” In the blink of an eye, Jiang Jinyi was gone.
Xu An anxiously questioned the staff, “Why didn’t you keep an eye on her?! Did you see where she ran off to?”
They all shook their heads blankly, leaving Xu An so frustrated she wanted to curse.
Wen Ye had already left earlier, carrying the woman in her arms. Liang Wei glared fiercely at Su Yi for a long time, his rage glaringly obvious, but in the end, he did not make a move or say a word, simply following Wen Ye out.
Ji Xiaoqin had run off long ago, though Xu An had watched her leave.
Xu An searched everywhere, but Jiang Jinyi was nowhere to be found. She checked the surveillance footage but only caught a fleeting glimpse of her figure, with no clue as to where she had ultimately run off to.
Who would have thought that her simple plan to bring Ji Xiaoqin here to catch Wen Ye cheating would end in such terrible luck.
Xu An was somewhat familiar with pheromone disruption agents. Often colloquially referred to as aphrodisiacs, they were highly harmful to the human body and strictly banned by the state, yet that still did not stop those with malicious intentions from using them.
Jiang Jinyi had been perfectly fine when she entered that room. She must have been affected by that stuff, and there was no telling what her condition was now.
Meanwhile…
The very second the call disconnected, Jiang Youwan set off toward the club.
It took her less than twenty minutes to arrive.
The first words out of her mouth upon seeing Xu An were an anxious, “Where is Xiao Jin?”
Jiang Youwan was completely different from her usual calm, effortless self. Genuine, raw emotion was written all over her face—tension, worry, fear…
Xu An finally understood the saying that if a person wanted to be invincible, they must have no attachments.
There was absolutely no one and nothing in this world that could hurt Jiang Youwan, except for Jiang Jinyi.
“Earlier, Xiao Jin caught a whiff of that man’s inhibitor. After a moment, she got incredibly uncomfortable and just ran off. We don’t know where she’s hiding, and no matter how much we call out, she won’t come out.”
Xu An handed her Jiang Jinyi’s smashed phone and said, “That guy earlier was incredibly arrogant. He slammed Xiao Jin straight onto the ground. I gave him a kick, and now the police have taken him away.”
Jiang Youwan’s eyes narrowed. She took the shattered phone and muttered, her voice dripping with venom, “How could one kick ever be enough?”
From the moment Su Yi plotted to hurt Xiao Jin, he deserved to be sliced into a thousand pieces. He should have been hung up by her, his flesh scraped off layer by layer, forced to watch his own meat being fed to the dogs.
He deserved to die. He deserved to die.
The murderous aura radiating from Jiang Youwan completely dissolved the moment she saw Jiang Jinyi’s figure on the surveillance monitor. Her fierce expression transformed into raw heartache, her eyes trembling, her heart aching to its very core.
She observed the footage closely, then went to search for her in the area where she had last disappeared.
The underground parking lot.
The moment she entered the parking lot, Jiang Youwan caught a faint scent of hyacinths in the air.
She grew even more certain that Jiang Jinyi was right here.
“Xiao Jin, Xiao Jin? Jiejie is here. Where are you? Don’t be scared. Come out, and Jiejie will take you to the hospital, alright?” Jiang Youwan was incredibly patient and gentle.
At this moment, Jiang Jinyi looked as if she had just been pulled from the water. Her clothes were soaked through, and she was curled up in a corner, her body shivering uncontrollably. Why had she run? Because she couldn’t stand the smell of even a single speck of anyone else’s pheromones. Catching even a whiff of them filled her with a terrifying fear of losing control. Forced by circumstances, she had fled to this deserted spot, not daring to take a single step out.
“Jiang Youwan… Jiejie…”
How could this be? This sensation was ten thousand times worse than being forced into heat. Her body was as scorching hot as if she were in an oven, and the throbbing pain in her neck gland almost made her pass out several times. She forced herself to stay conscious, terrified that Jiang Youwan wouldn’t be able to find her when she came.
Gradually, she heard Jiang Youwan’s calls. She lifted her head from between her knees, her unfocused eyes seeming to find her hope, and replied in a weak voice, “Jiejie, I’m here…”
“I’m here…”
She wanted to be held in Jiang Youwan’s arms right this instant.
Hearing Jiang Jinyi’s faint response, Jiang Youwan ran quickly toward the sound. Finally, she spotted Jiang Jinyi curled up in the corner, looking utterly pitiful.
Jiang Jinyi held her legs close, her body trembling as she gazed in her direction with tear-filled eyes. The tears that had been welling up finally broke free, spilling down in large droplets.
She tried to stand, but her body was so weak she tumbled back down. The floor was rough concrete, scraping some skin off her hands. It hurt, but fortunately, the very next second, she was pulled into Jiang Youwan’s arms, receiving the comfort she craved most.
“Jiejie, I feel so awful…” Following her body’s instincts, Jiang Jinyi buried her face in the crook of Jiang Youwan’s neck, very close to her nape, where the scent of pheromones was strongest.
Sobbing, Jiang Jinyi choked out, “I don’t know what’s wrong with me. It hurts so much… I didn’t hide on purpose. My body has become so strange…” It had been strange earlier, and it was still strange now. Earlier, the discomfort had been painful, but now it was different—replaced by another kind of ache, another kind of urge. She didn’t know what to do or how to relieve it, so she could only hold Jiang Youwan tight, tighter and tighter…
Seeing her like this, Jiang Youwan’s heart shattered. She had no idea how to comfort Jiang Jinyi, wondering if giving her the finest things in the world could somehow make up for her current suffering.
Jiang Jinyi was drenched in sweat, as if she had just been fished out of the water. The scent of her pheromones was so rich that even without any conscious attempt at seduction, it almost overwhelmed Jiang Youwan.
Fortunately, since it happened to be during her own heat, she had taken suppressants. Otherwise…
Slipping a hand around the back of Jiang Jinyi’s neck, she found her nape swollen and scorching hot. Running away on instinct at the sight of anyone… this condition was highly reminiscent of differentiation…
Could it be secondary differentiation?!
Jiang Youwan kissed her forehead. “Jiejie is here. It won’t hurt much longer. Let’s go to the hospital. We’ll just go get you checked out at the hospital, and you’ll be fine.”
Sensing Jiang Youwan kissing her, Jiang Jinyi lifted her head and tilted her face up, staring at her with those deeply pitiful eyes.
She didn’t know what was wrong with her, to actually seek a kiss from Jiang Youwan. But she currently lacked the capacity to think about any of that. Seeing Jiang Youwan dazed and no longer kissing her, she tilted her head up on her own and pressed her lips to the corner of Jiang Youwan’s mouth.
Jiang Youwan froze. Aggrieved that she wasn’t kissing her back, Jiang Jinyi wrapped her arms around her neck, pressing against her lips, wanting to part them, wanting to kiss her.
Kiss her.
Just like that night—a deep kiss.
Jiang Jinyi took her lips in her mouth, murmuring indistinctly, “I want to kiss you so much… Jiejie, kiss me…”
The flutter in her chest reached its absolute peak at this moment. Jiang Youwan’s body felt slightly weak, and her heart hammered wildly, thumping so hard it felt like it would leap out of her chest, a stark reminder of just how deeply stirred she was.
Look at you. Just because Jiang Jinyi told you to kiss her, you’ve gone crazy, wanting to carve her into your very flesh and blood.
Jiang Youwan simply had no way to refuse, no way to resist, no way to fight it. She cradled Jiang Jinyi’s cheeks, lowered her head, parted her lips, and kissed her deeply.
Jiang Jinyi didn’t know how, but she was led by Jiang Youwan, guided step by step on how to catch her breath.
Jiang Jinyi was both lucid and intoxicated. Gradually, she grasped what made kissing so addictive. From her clumsy, stumbling first steps, she became increasingly adept—even a little eager, wishing to seize the initiative. But facing Jiang Youwan, who was six years her senior, she ultimately had to concede defeat.
Jiang Youwan was kissed until her cheeks flushed and her lips grew slightly swollen. Looking at Jiang Jinyi’s face, which was even redder than her own, she exerted all her strength to restrain herself. Now was not the time for kissing.
Jiang Jinyi wanted to keep kissing, but as she moved again, her nape suddenly flared with an intense, agonizing pain. The sensation shot through her entire body like an electric current jolting every single nerve, and the sheer agony caused her to black out.
At this very moment, the originally soft and delicate scent of hyacinths underwent a subtle change.
“Secondary differentiation?”
The doctor nodded and said, “Yes, this young lady has just undergone secondary differentiation. We don’t know the exact details yet. We will have to wait for the test results to come out before making a definitive assessment.”
In this world, a small percentage of people would experience secondary differentiation after their initial one. Jiang Youwan wasn’t too surprised, and she felt somewhat relieved.
She had feared Su Yi had done something unspeakable to her. If it was secondary differentiation, it was highly likely to be a good thing.
She began to wonder: after this secondary differentiation, would Xiao Jin become an SSS-class Omega? If so, she would surely be even more alluring than she was now. That would certainly spell trouble; who knew which of them would be the first to lose self-control?
She could sense that Jiang Jinyi liked her at least a little bit now.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so intensely jealous over the misunderstanding about her having a fiancée, nor would she have kissed her, nor…
Kissed her.
But it was also possible that the jealousy was simply because Xiao Jin possessed a natural possessiveness over what belonged to her, and kissing her was merely driven by lust.
Thinking of this, Jiang Youwan narrowed her eyes. Looking down at Jiang Jinyi lying on the hospital bed, her gaze darkened significantly. She pinched her cheek, pressing her thumb against her lips, and said in a low, suggestive murmur, “You little bastard. If it really is just that, Jiejie won’t let you off easy.”
Since she had taken the initiative to kiss her, she had to take responsibility.
“So this is your good brother, your buddy, your business partner? Plotting to sleep with your own meimei. If we hadn’t received word in advance, what do you think would have happened to Qiqi by now?” Wen Ye stood with her arms crossed, speaking coldly to Liang Wei.
Liang Wei frowned. “What are you getting so worked up for? Isn’t Qiqi perfectly fine?”
“Fine?” Wen Ye sneered. “What if we had been a step too late? Would you still be saying those words? If anything had actually happened to Qiqi, do you think Grandfather would let you off? Do you think he would still hand Liang Corporation over to you?”
Liang Wei knew he was in the wrong. He pursed his lips, his gaze turning irritated.
“What kind of man is Su Yi? If he can treat your own meimei like this, do you really think you can count on him to help you take the top spot once the deed is done?”
Liang Wei cast a glance at Wen Ye. “…That’s different.”
Wen Ye chuckled. “How is it different?”
Liang Wei didn’t even realize how hard he was trying to make excuses for Su Yi’s vile behavior. “With Qiqi, Su Yi was just too horny. I’ll just have a word with him and send a few more Omegas his way, tell him to keep his hands off Qiqi. There are so many Omegas out there; he can’t possibly play with them all anyway.”
“Even though he’s a bit of trash in that department, he has no reason to go back on his word to a brother.”
Wen Ye was truly speechless at this man’s stupidity. “No reason? Liang Wei, Liang Corporation is such a massive piece of fat meat. He is greedy for power and profit—is that not reason enough?”
Every word hit home, making Liang Wei’s gaze grow more and more irritated. “Wen Ye, are you really that desperate to stop me from inheriting the family business? Let me tell you, even if it doesn’t fall to me, it’ll never go to someone named Wen!”
Seeing her good intentions thrown back in her face, Wen Ye shook her head with a frustrated laugh, mocking his ignorance. “Do you truly think Jiang Youwan is going to be that easy to handle?”
Liang Wei scoffed at her. “Do you really think Jiang Youwan is some kind of god? Jiang Corporation is already on the brink. All it takes is one final step, squeezing her Achilles’ heel—how could she not surrender?”
The more he spoke, the more confident Liang Wei became. He gave Wen Ye a low warning, “I’ll protect Qiqi myself, and I won’t be abandoning my partnership with Su Yi. You, a Wen, had better not harbor any designs on the Liang family.”
“A fool like you can actually protect Qiqi?” Wen Ye sneered, refusing to speak with him further. She walked up to the villa’s second floor, stopped at the door of Liang Qi’s room, and knocked.
“Qiqi, it’s me.”
A few seconds later, the door opened from the inside. Liang Qi had just showered and was wearing pajamas. Her eyes were swollen and her voice was raspy from crying. She looked at Wen Ye. “What are you doing here?”
Wen Ye said, “Just to check on you.”
Liang Qi didn’t show much warmth. “Thank you for what happened earlier today. I’m already fine. If there’s nothing else, I’d like to rest.”
Wen Ye paused, appearing hesitant to speak. “Then get some good rest.”

Meanwhile…
After handing Jiang Jinyi over to Jiang Youwan, Xu An went to look for Ji Xiaoqin. She couldn’t get through on the phone, but when she went to her place, she discovered that she had already returned home.
It had started raining while she was searching, soaking Xu An quite a bit. Seeing her in this state, Ji Xiaoqin felt terribly guilty and hurriedly ushered her inside to change.
Outside, the rain poured heavier. Xu An sat on Ji Xiaoqin’s sofa, undoing her twin tails so her pink hair fell loose down her back. Ji Xiaoqin went into the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles, bringing it over to her. “Thank you for today,” she said to her.
Xu An fell silent for a moment. “I thought you’d hate me.”
Having forced her to face things she didn’t want to see, truth be told, Xu An had been afraid that Ji Xiaoqin would hate her.
Ji Xiaoqin was slightly taken aback, her voice dropping even quieter. “How could I?”
Relieved by her denial, Xu An felt much more at ease. Taking the chopsticks Ji Xiaoqin offered, she took a bite of the noodles and was pleasantly surprised by how delicious they tasted.
Xu An grumbled on her behalf, “You don’t need to be sad over someone like that. She is just a playgirl1. If someone hadn’t held me back today, I would have definitely taught her how to behave like a decent human being.”
The corner of Ji Xiaoqin’s mouth twitched into a forced smile. She murmured softly, “Actually, she never defined our relationship from the start, so I can’t really blame her.”
It was just that before this, Ji Xiaoqin had always believed that an act as intimate as marking was something only couples did.
How could Xu An not know what a pure, innocent Omega Ji Xiaoqin was? Something like a one-night stand was utterly impossible for her, and she refused to believe Wen Ye didn’t know that.
That playgirl Wen Ye had never spared a single thought for her!
Another wave of fury surged inside Xu An. She buried her face in her noodles, eating in silence, when suddenly Ji Xiaoqin’s phone rang. When Ji Xiaoqin picked it up from the table and looked, Xu An knew exactly who was calling just from her expression.
“Wen Ye?!”
“Yeah…”
“Hang up…” Ji Xiaoqin murmured.
“Don’t hang up!” Xu An cut her off, snatching the phone. She was absolutely going to give her a piece of her mind; hang up? Like hell she would!
Ji Xiaoqin looked distressed. She wanted to grab her phone back, but she knew she was no match for Xu An’s physical strength.
Xu An swiped to answer. The air fell silent for a second before the voice on the other end spoke first. “Xiaoqin, it seems to be raining outside. Did you get wet? Have you gone home yet?”
So fucking hypocritical.
“Who do you think you are to her? How do you have the face to call her again? Are you even worthy of caring about her? A person needs face just like a tree needs bark! How can you be so shameless, Wen Ye?! Do you just want to hear how heartbroken and devastated she is over you? Does that give you some twisted sense of satisfaction? Let me tell you, she is doing perfectly fine. Fuck you! May playgirls like you be struck by lightning! You fucking idiot of a playgirl.”
Xu An spat out everything she wanted to say in a single breath, finally feeling a bit better. The other side remained silent for a few seconds before letting out a soft chuckle.
She seemed to completely ignore Xu An, speaking instead to Ji Xiaoqin with heavy implication. “It’s so late, yet there’s still someone at your place, Xiaoqin? I really thought you were such a pure, innocent girl, and I did feel quite guilty toward you. But now, I feel a lot better. I won’t disturb you two further.”
“Fuck your mother!” Hearing these words, Xu An’s lungs were about to explode with rage. The other side instantly hung up. Xu An looked up, and as expected, Ji Xiaoqin’s tears were on the verge of spilling over.
Wen Ye knew very well that wasn’t the case, yet she deliberately spoke such words. It was truly too much.
Xu An had absolutely no idea how to offer words of comfort. Ji Xiaoqin wiped her eyes and quietly licked her wounds for a bit before looking up to say apologetically, “I’m sorry. I dragged you into this and let others misunderstand. I’ll clarify things later.”
Even when she was in such a state herself, she was still thinking of others…
Xu An felt an incredibly heavy feeling in her heart, her protective urge swelling uncontrollably. Clenching her fists, she blurted out, “No need to clarify.”
Ji Xiaoqin looked at her in shock. Xu An added, “Just let her misunderstand. I’ll protect you from now on.”
By the time Jiang Jinyi woke up on the hospital bed, it was already four or five in the morning.
She opened her eyes to the dim room, and the smell of disinfectant confirmed she was in a hospital.
Her body was no longer uncomfortable, and she let out a sigh of relief. When she tried to move, she realized her hand was being held, and there was a slight weight resting against her. Turning her head, she saw Jiang Youwan slumped over the edge of the bed, seemingly fast asleep. She was clutching her hand, having watched over her the entire time.
Jiang Jinyi blinked. Memories surfaced of when she had still been conscious: Jiang Youwan finding her, holding her in her arms as she wept, and kissing her forehead to soothe her. And then… she had been unable to resist kissing her.
The images of their kiss from last night replayed with absolute clarity in her mind. While her face flushed hot, Jiang Jinyi couldn’t help but gaze at Jiang Youwan’s sleeping face.
Jiang Youwan was incredibly beautiful. Her sleeping face was a novel sight to Jiang Jinyi, without the sharp intensity she had when awake, which made people feel this woman was dangerous.
Now, she exuded a sense of vulnerability—the vulnerability of a powerful businesswoman who had stripped away her defenses.
Jiang Jinyi swallowed. The face before her melded with the memory of holding her face in a haze of passion to kiss her, and her heart suddenly began to throb violently.
In the past, she could never have imagined she would kiss Jiang Youwan so passionately, let alone grow to love the feeling.
Was that kiss laced with opium? It was a little addictive.
An itch stirred in her chest. She wanted to taste her again, wanting to draw her lips into her mouth and see if they would melt there.
If she stole a kiss, she wouldn’t find out, right? If she didn’t know, they could just pretend nothing had happened…
Jiang Jinyi decided to follow her heart.
After all, Jiang Youwan had taken advantage of her once before too.
Armed with a justification to take advantage of her, Jiang Jinyi felt a bit more grounded. She gently propped herself up and leaned down, slowly drawing closer. Terrified of waking her and getting caught, her movements were incredibly light, but her trembling breath was impossible to control. Afraid her breathing against her face would wake her, she only dared to quickly press a brief kiss onto her lips, then retreated to a safe distance, lying back down and covering her completely flushed face with her hands.
Ah! She had actually stolen a kiss from Jiang Youwan! She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but the scent of datura flowers drifting through the air seemed to grow slightly richer. Startled, Jiang Jinyi glanced sideways at Jiang Youwan, who was still sleeping peacefully.
Yet, Jiang Jinyi had a nagging feeling that Jiang Youwan had actually been awake all along—vividly aware that she was kissing her, vividly feeling her trembling breath as she drew near.
This thrilling sensation made it impossible for her heart rate to settle. Her face burned hotter and hotter, feeling as if she were about to boil!
No, that wasn’t right, Jiang Jinyi comforted herself. Jiang Youwan had to be asleep. If she were awake, she would definitely grab the back of her neck and ask her with that half-smile why she was kissing her.
A wicked woman like her would absolutely never let slip an opportunity to tease her.
Yes, exactly.
…
Before long, the sky outside began to brighten. Only then did Jiang Youwan “wake up.” She poked the cheek of the person who had fallen back asleep on the bed, waking her.
Seeing Jiang Youwan act completely normal, totally oblivious, and only caring about whether her body was still uncomfortable, Jiang Jinyi felt completely at ease.
“It’s still uncomfortable. The back of my neck is uncomfortable, and my whole body feels strange.” She didn’t know what exactly was strange, but it was just odd. The way her body felt was completely different from before.
Jiang Youwan stroked her head, comforting her. “You’ve really suffered, our Xiao Jin. It’ll be over soon. The doctor will be here in a moment.”
Before long, the doctor came in holding a medical report, cheerfully saying, “This young lady has undergone secondary differentiation, and she has differentiated into an SSS-class Alpha.”
“It’s truly rare. It must be due to excellent family genetics, or perhaps she was influenced by an Omega.”
Jiang Jinyi didn’t catch anything the doctor said after that. The only word that registered in her mind was… Alpha…?
Both Jiang Jinyi and Jiang Youwan froze. Jiang Jinyi’s jaw dropped in disbelief, and even Jiang Youwan, who usually could remain calm and rational in the face of any major storm, wore an expression of sheer surprise.
When the doctor had mentioned “SSS-class,” she had honestly assumed it was an Omega.
“Doctor, are you sure there isn’t some mistake? She… differentiated into an Alpha? And an SSS-class one at that?”
The doctor nodded, showing no trace of jesting. “I’m sure.”
An Alpha. An SSS-class Alpha.
How absolutely stunning. No wonder Jinyi had kissed her until her own body went completely weak yesterday, yet still couldn’t get enough.
What an incredible surprise. Jiang Youwan had truly never even considered the possibility of her becoming an Alpha. Heaven was truly beginning to smile upon her, always bringing her such unexpected joy.
Jiang Youwan quickly digested and accepted the news, a meaningful smile dancing in her eyes. She leaned to the side to look at Jiang Jinyi, her gaze complex and highly suggestive. “Xiao Jin, with your delicate, soft-girl personality, crying over the slightest teasing… now that you’ve differentiated into an Alpha, whatever will you do in the future?”
“Will you even be able to find an Omega? You really make Jiejie worry.”
While Jiang Youwan teased her on the surface, her mind was harboring an entirely different train of thought. If she’s an Alpha…
