Rebirth to become the President’s Omega Wife - Chap 39
Su Ling saw how everyone reacted and wanted to laugh. He likes male god, how is that shocking? His male god is very good! It seems that his serious image is too deeply rooted in the people’s heart. The corner of his mouth curved up and his eyes meet Gu Liheng’s. He(GLH) won’t doubt that he(SL) has feelings for Xiào Rui anymore, right?
Gu Liheng and Su Ling stared at each other for two seconds, then Gu Liheng looked away. During the susceptible period, his emotions are very sensitive. He was delighted when he heard Su Ling’s words, but his logic caused him to tighten up. Boldly confessing to an Alpha in public is not good for the young man. Should there be anyone who likes him(SL), they will not dare to confess anymore. Although Gu Liheng is not willing for other people to be confessed by Su Ling, he cannot accept the young man if his condition has not improved. He hopes that the young man can be loved by excellent and outstanding people.
Glancing over the people present, Gu Liheng said in a deep voice, “All of you didn’t hear what he said just now.”
The staff of the auction house subconsciously answered, “Yes.”
Xiào Rui: “I heard nothing.”
Lin Meng blinked his eyes in confusion. Why didn’t President Gu want others to know that Ling Ling is chasing him? He doesn’t like Ling Ling? He looked at Su Ling worriedly and wanted to say something but Xiào Rui took his hand with a smile and said, “It’s getting late, I will send Meng Meng back.”
Lin Meng struggled, but couldn’t get away. His face turned red and was taken away by Xiào Rui in a daze. The Xiao family members took Redthorn Ball and the liquid collected tonight with them.
Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng and asked, “Afraid others will know that I like you?”
Gu Liheng frowned slightly and glanced at the employees present, “I will send you back.”
Feeling that this is not a good place to talk as well, Su Ling left the auction house with Gu Liheng. On the way out, he received a notification message that he has received a transfer of 950,000 star coins. After that message, he received another one, which is from Lin Meng: Ling Ling, do you really like President Gu?
Su Ling smiled and replied: “En.”
Lin Meng: “Good luck!”
Su Ling: “Thank you.”
Walking to Gu Liheng’s car, Su Ling asked again, “Why don’t you want others to know that I like you?” If this is someone else, Su Ling might wonder if this person thinks that he is unworthy.
With a serious expression, Gu Liheng said, “If you already have someone you like, there will be fewer people to chase you.”
Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “I don’t need someone to chase me. I like you. Why do I want others to chase me?”
Gu Liheng watched him silently, and Su Ling’s smile gradually faded, “You think you will keep rejecting me and don’t want to delay my happiness?” Without waiting for Gu Liheng’s answer, he sighed, “You are still thinking about me even when you refused me. You are too gentle, and with this, I won’t give up on you.”
His phoenix eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, “You obviously like me. Although I don’t know why you hesitated, it doesn’t fit your style.” He paused before adding, “President Gu.”
Obviously, it is what people often greeted him, and it is just a simple word, but when Su Ling says it, the lingering feeling makes Gu Liheng tremble. He stood straight, his tall height and long legs were very eye-catching, but he simply stood like a block of wood, not saying a word. Gu Liheng couldn’t say anything because the young man was right. He couldn’t refute or explain himself. Should he tell the young man about his situation? No, suffering from mental illness due to childhood experience, such a weak side of him, as an Alpha, how would he be willing to let his Omega crush know?
Seeing that Gu Liheng’s expression is not good, Su Ling said with a smile, “Go back and rest. I’ll just take a taxi.”
Gu Liheng: “I will send you.”
Su Ling laughed, he didn’t point out how inconsistent his actions at this time were with his refusal. His male god is too clumsy emotionally, but it moved his heart. He smiled, “All right then, thank you.”
Back at the fragrance bar, Su Ling waved to Gu Liheng and walked into the backyard to release the spiritual plants. Lopseed and Baby’s breath’s condition was not very good, but they are better than before, not looking like they are going to snap off anytime soon. Su Ling stroke their leaves; hopefully, after some time of contact, they would understand that Xian Mo Yu really wouldn’t eat them. Then they could be calmer when they stay together.
Su Ling went to the lounge and checked the balance of his account balance. Then he transferred one million star coins to Nalu with a message: Money from auctioning Redthorn Ball liquid, I have enough money to spend for myself.
Nalu would transfer the money from selling the raw materials in the black market to his(SL) account regularly before this, and he still has the money with him. After a while, his communication rang with a call from Nalu, “One million star coins for a month of Redthorn Ball liquid?”
Su Ling: “En, Xiào Rui placed a bid with that price right away in the auction.”
Nalu: “No wonder, this little money is nothing for his family.” Knowing that Su Ling has enough money to spend, he continued, “I’ll accept the money then. It just so happened that I am planning to close the shop for renovation after the current raw materials are used up.”
“Business has been booming in the past two days, and the store has gotten more and more negative reviews. The store decoration style is indeed too old.
Su Ling asked, “Do you need my help with the design?”
“This is your store. Think of the design when you have the time, you must like it after all.”
Su Ling thinks it makes sense. He is very interested in making fragrance. Hence, whether to take good care of the store or to fulfil this body’s final wish, he must take it seriously, “Okay.”
…
Upon returning to the villa, Gu Liheng took off his isolator and took a bath. After that, he changed into black pyjamas and sat on the bedroom sofa with a serious face while rereading Mill’s advice. After reading it, he made several plans and then looked at the forum. He hesitated for a while, before posting a help post. When filling in the nickname, he subconsciously wanted to fill in [Red Wine], but he changed his mind after a pause and wrote [Citrus] instead.
[Citrus]: The Omega I liked is chasing me, but I may not be able to give him happiness, what should I do?
There were a lot of people on the forum in the evening, plus his title mentioned Omega chasing him, so a reply soon appeared.
[Strawberry]: Really now? An Omega will chase after someone else, a Beta to boot?
[Gardenia]: So fake, Omega will only get chased, right? And Beta has no pheromone, how can you attract the Omega?
Frowning, Gu Liheng couldn’t understand why he is considered a Beta without asking.
[Citrus]: I am an Alpha.
[Strawberry]: Why can’t you as an Alpha give the Omega happiness? S*xual dysfunction?
[Pine Tree]: Brother, you sounded a bit miserable. Let me introduce you to a reliable hospital.
Gu Liheng deleted the post decisively. Seems like the forum is not reliable to find suitable suggestions. He has to work hard to recover.
…
Early the next morning, Su Ling put the spiritual plants in his space storage and went out to eat breakfast. Then he took a cab to Linshui villa area. Upon arriving, he discovered that the Linshui villa area is actually next to the Banshan villa area[1]. And Linshui is even further away, just that he hadn’t paid attention before. A car from the Xiao family is already waiting at the entrance of the villa area. Xiào Rui stood by the car and waved to him. Obviously, he was very concerned about the liquid.
After Su Ling got in the car, Xiào Rui asked, “Why don’t I let my driver pick you up at your place in the future?”
Su Ling: “No need, it’s very convenient to take a taxi.” He recalled the plot in the next book. “May I ask, who is the liquid for?”
Xiào Rui laughed, “It’s alright to ask, many people know about it. It is for my grandfather.”
A jolt ran across Su Ling’s heart. He remembered it is written in the novel that Xiào Rui’s grandfather passed away during the summer vacation, causing the Xiao’s family to fell in turmoil. Xiào Rui became very busy and had many misunderstandings with Lin Meng. Of course, many of them were caused by Zhao Qi. Soon, Su Ling calmed down. This world is real and not in the novel. He should have been dead, but he is still alive; anything could change.
After harvesting the liquid for the day, the Xiao’s family’s driver escorted him away. Su Ling bought a bunch of flowers and went to the Banshan villa area. He decided to dispel male god’s doubts with actions. Sending flowers is not necessarily a good choice, but he couldn’t think of a better way at the moment. After all, male god is much richer than him, and he has no shortage of anything. If to make any intimate gesture, his male god is not willing.
The villa area was very strictly managed. Since the car from the Xiao family has not registered at Banshan Villa before, it was stopped at the gate. However, the security guards have seen Su Ling being sent down in the Gu family’s car on his return trip before, so they didn’t stop him. Hence, Su Ling walked up to Gu’s villa again.
When the door was opened, Su Ling saw Gu Liheng behind the door and gave out flowers with a smile, “I went to Xiao family’s house in the morning to harvest the liquid. Then I found out that it is very close to your place, so I came here by the way.”
Gu Liheng’s gaze swept across Su Ling’s slightly flushed face from his walk. He still remembered Su Ling saying that the walk was tiring yesterday. Turning sideways, he makes space for Su Ling and said, “Come in and take a break.”
Still didn’t accept the flowers.
Su Ling smiled. After entering the living room, he didn’t see the flowers from yesterday, but he didn’t mind. He put the flowers in the vase and arranged them to look more beautiful before sitting on the sofa. Then he checked Gu Liheng’s expression and found that he is not in good spirits and seemed to have not slept well. He asked, “Are you unwell?”
Gu Liheng: “It’s okay, just normal reactions during the susceptible period.”
Su Ling: “Is there any way I can help you to be more comfortable?”
Gu Liheng’s thin lips pressed slightly, and he didn’t speak. Of course, there are ways to help him. He could hug the young man, kiss him lightly, or bite him on the back of the neck; all these will make him feel comfortable.
Shifting a bit, Su Ling moved until the side of his thigh touches Gu Liheng’s thigh. Instantly, Gu Liheng’s muscles stiffened. Su Ling opened his hand sideways, “Would you like to try hugging?”
Gu Liheng stood up abruptly and moved a step aside. He sputtered, “No.”
Su Ling put his hand down and said, “All right, feel free to tell me if I can make you more comfortable.”
Noticing that Gu Liheng’s emotions were tense, Su Ling smiled helplessly and stood up, “I’m going back, goodbye.” But seeing Gu Liheng want to move, he raised his hand, “No need to send me.”
Gu Liheng stopped on his track.
The moment when Su Ling walked out of the living room, he saw a car already stopping at the door. The door of the vehicle had been opened, and the driver stood by the car, “Mr Su, I will send you back.”
Su Ling looked back and saw no one. He shook his head amusedly and got into the car. Halfway through, he received an unfamiliar call and directly hung up. However, the caller tried to call again. He raised his eyebrows, looked out the window boredly before connecting the call.
“Hello, Mr Su. This is Major Qian Qin, from military logistics department. Do you have time to talk?”
Su Ling thought of the news he had read online and said, “You want to talk about Pearl Lopseed? Sorry, they are friends to me and are not for sale.”
Qian Qin was a little surprised. He had read information about the young man, and the speed of reaction and decisiveness of rejection was really not like an 18 years old Omega. Even Father Su may not be so decisive upon hearing the word ‘military’.
“I understand, I can just buy the Lopseed nectar.”
Su Ling considered for a while, the nectar can be collected about 15ml a day. He hasn’t learned how to make fragrance, and he can’t use this high-grade raw material, so it’s a waste to just keeping it around. At least the military is more reliable than the black market. If the military buys the nectar, other people will not have any intention on him, thus saving him from possible trouble. He said, “Okay, I can sell 300ml a month, and will sell it once a month. If you have any emergency, you can also come to collect in the middle of the month, is that okay?”
Qian Qin did not agree right away, but asked, “How many nectars can you collect from your Lopseed in one day?”
Su Ling: “15ml.”
Qian Qin: “The military will take all. 450 ml a month, and we will give you 500,000 star coins.”
Su Ling: “I can only sell up to 400ml, I still have to keep a little for myself.” The nectar is a holy medicine for trauma injury after all, which he may have a use for it at any time.
“Okay, let’s set an appointment, are you free?”
Su Ling said yes, and Qian Qin acted efficiently. He quickly determined the meeting location and transferred the contract to Su Ling directly upon meeting up. Su Ling signed the contract after reading it. The whole process took no more than 5 minutes.
Looking at the signed contract, Qian Qin smiled and stretched out his hand, “Happy to cooperate with you.”
Su Ling stretched out his hand as well, but before their hands touched, Qian Qin quickly took his hand back and touched his nose, “Sorry, your decisions were swift and neat, so I forgot that you are an Omega.”
Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “Are you being s*xist?”
Though Qian Qin is dressed in a military uniform, his aura was not stern, and he laughed heartily, “Absolutely not, no one will discriminate against an Omega. Where are you going by the way? I can send you.”
Su Ling took Qian Qin’s car to go back to the fragrance bar. He released the spiritual plants at the backyard and continued to practice on controlling his pheromones. In the afternoon, he used an extractor to extract a few essential oils from the low-grade spiritual plants and used them to mix with the essential oils extracted last time in the fragrance-making room. He kept changing the ratio of various essential oils and choosing the best smelling one. He wanted to continue but soon realized there are no raw materials left. So he didn’t continue with his testing but looked for the basic courseware of fragrance making online. During his experiments in the afternoon, Su Ling found that the essential oil of the spiritual plant is somewhat different from the plants from his world, and the smell is not easy to mix. It was until he saw Nalu coming to work that he turned off the courseware.
Su Ling placed the spiritual plants in his space storage before going out for dinner. Then he strolled along the entertainment street to look at the shops. He would stay at each shop for a while, carefully looking at their decoration styles and observing the preferences of the guests. He came to check the shops out before, but he didn’t have a clear purpose back then.
During his stroll, a lot of people attempted to chat with Su Ling, but he cleanly refused everyone. After checking a shop, he will write down the good points and some thoughts in his bracelet. He just came out of a store when his bracelet rang. When he connected the call, Lin Meng’s voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of being discovered, “Ling Ling, come to Nightshade.”
Nightshade is the largest mixed bar in the entertainment street. It is a fragrance bar and a drinking bar at the same time. A mixed bar needs to place a high priority on their fragrance; otherwise, it cannot be opened. After all, alcohol can release emotions, and the fragrance bar is a place to relax and find partners. So, many customers won’t attach their isolator. Only when the bar’s fragrance works well, can the customers keep their sense.
Puzzled, Su Ling asked, “What’s the matter?”
Lin Meng: “President Gu asked Ah Rui to come out today. But Ah Rui didn’t let me go with him, so I followed him quietly. Zhao Qi also came just now. He deliberately slipped and fell on President Gu. I think something is wrong. Could it be he has stopped chasing Ah Rui and changed his target to President Gu?!”
Su Ling’s eyes narrowed. He raised his head and looked forward. Not far away is Nightshade.
“I’m coming right away.”
