Rebirth to become the President’s Omega Wife - Chap 50
Xian Mo Yu stretched out its roots and swayed in front of everyone. Then the roots retracted, leaving one wrapped around Su Ling’s wrist and one standing beside him.
After Ye Lei turned on all the monitoring equipment, his eyes fell on Su Ling’s wrist, “It’s very close to you.”
Su Ling hadn’t spoken yet, and the standing root bent to rub Su Ling at the side of his face. He reached out and pinched the root, “Don’t mess around.”
Ye Lei was surprised by the interaction, “It can understand us? What a high IQ.”
“Yes,” Su Ling nodded. “What the book says about Grade S spiritual plant having high IQ is correct.”
Ye Lei’s eyes lit up, and he circled Xian Mo Yu, “Unfortunately, Grade S spiritual plants are too rare, we don’t know much about them. Although we have found traces of Grade S spiritual plants everywhere, we failed to track them down. They know how to stay hidden in their own turf too well.” He looked at Su Ling, curious and excited, “Why did it come back with you? And why it would be so close to you?”
Su Ling hesitated but told Ye Lei about his pheromone abnormalities. Before Ye Lei could ask further, he stated, “I don’t know what was in my body before. I haven’t seen it on Xian Mo Yu’s body either.”
Ye Lei recorded down his(SL) words and asked, “Will it be fine just drinking nutrient solutions? Does it need to bask in the sun for photosynthesis?”
“It shouldn’t be necessary ba, I have never let it out in the sun before,” he said, lightly squeezing the roots, “Do you want to bask in the sun?”
The standing root swayed left and right, then moved up and down again.
Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “So it’s yes or no?”
The roots didn’t move, and Xian Mo Yu’s experience flashed in Su Ling’s mind. Its red petals seemed to be shining in the sun, surrounded by many animals, as well as colourful butterflies and bees. At the next scene, Xian Mo Yu is waiting quietly in the depths of the forest where there is no sunlight at all, with roots extending everywhere; hunting mode. Now Su Ling understands that Xian Mo Yu will hunt when there’s no sunlight to do photosynthesis. It has inherited survival methods from both plants and animals. But now that it has nutrient solution, which has replaced hunting. He asked Xian Mo Yu to confirm the information he learned, “You mean, it’s okay either way whether to bask in the sun or not?”
The roots moved up and down.
Ye Lei: “Then we won’t arrange light factor for the indoor test. We will wait for the field test to study its photosynthesis.”
After Ye Lei finished speaking, he asked the team members to open a new container of nutrient solution and put it near Xian Mo Yu. A lot of roots came out from Xian Mo Yu and soaked itself in the container. As it unfolded itself in the nutrient solution, the fragrance it exudes is stronger. Obviously, it is feeling happy now.
Ye Lei enjoyed the fragrance for a while before asking, “How do you feel when you smell its scent?”
A team member replied, “Very comfortable, it gave me a lazy feeling.”
“There is a sense of trance, like in a dream.”
Someone agreed, “Yes, I feel that way too.”
Ye Lei looked at Su Ling, “I feel the same as them, how about you?”
Su Ling nodded: “But my mind is clear, knowing that everything happening right now is real.”
Ye Lei acknowledged with an En. After a moment of thought, he said, “A feeling of trance, but doesn’t affect reason.” He rubbed his lower neck unconsciously, and then pointed to a member of the team, “Old Third, you stay.” Then he said to Su Ling, “I want to test the effect of its scent on Alpha and Omega’s pheromone. To avoid getting affected, please go next door.”
Except for Ye Lei and Old Third, the others all walked out. Some team members joked, “Group leader, don’t be afraid. If he dares to mess around, we’ll rush over and beat him right away.”
The man they called Old Third threw a kick in the air, “Fxck off, my self-control is super strong. Otherwise, why do you think the team leader asked me to test his theory?”
The man laughed and closed the door after going out.
In the next room, no one sat down. Everyone stood there looking at the holographic screen that was as large as the wall. Su Ling and Gu Liheng stood at the front, while the rest stood at the door, seemingly ready to rush to Room 1 at any time. In the holographic screen, Ye Lei said to Old Third while taking off his isolator, “Take off yours.”
Old Third did as what he told.
The people in front of the holographic screen were all staring at the screen. Five minutes later, Ye Lei and Old Third are still standing face to face, but no one is blushing or getting soft at the feet, just like when they have their isolator on.
“I watched the team leader’s assessment before this. His pheromone was very attractive, it doesn’t make sense.”
“Uh…Is there a problem with Old Third?”
“Impossible, Old Third went directly to the bathroom after watching the team leader’s assessment last time.”
After another five minutes, Ye Lei faced the camera and beckoned them.
When Su Ling saw this, they all moved to the next door.
Both Ye Lei and Old Third has re-attached their isolator, and the ventilation equipment is in operation. But some of the sweet smell of an Omega pheromone and strong Alpha pheromone still remains in the air.
Gu Liheng took Su Ling’s hand and looked at his expression.
Taken aback, Su Ling soon reacted and laughed, “I’m not affected.”
The other team members were surprised as well as they said, “I am not affected either.”
“It feels so strange. I can smell the team leader’s pheromone, but my emotion is very stable.
Ye Lei held down his excitement and tried to calm his tone, “This should be the effect of Xian Mo Yu’s fragrance, which blurs the feeling, but does not affect the reality.”
“It is equivalent to that AO can still smell the other party’s pheromone, but it blurs the emotional changes brought by the pheromone while keeping the mind sober.”
Su Ling’s eyes lit up and looked at Gu Liheng, “In this case, we can stay together in the future, and it will be fine even if we don’t attach our isolator!”
Gu Liheng nodded and said, “However, it is still uncertain whether the scent is useful for AO who are already affected, and whether the effectiveness stays the same for AO with high compatibility rate.”
A team member voiced out, “Oh yeah, Old Third has the lowest compatibility rate with the team leader.”
“Haha, it turns out that the team leader chose Old Third for this reason.”
Ye Lei turned to glance at the man, and when they settled down, he said, “President Gu is right, but there is no way to test it today. We will go into the details, and it will be tested three days later.”
“No matter what the result is, this effect is already very magical,” Ye Lei made a fist. “In the future, AO may be able to fall in love without the isolator, just like a normal Beta, without being affected by their instinct.”
“That’s great. I have a friend where the person he like has a low compatibility rate with him. Later, another person with a high compatibility rate chased after him. After drinking, he was affected by their pheromones, and he couldn’t control himself, ending up having a relationship with that person. It is still a big mess at his side.”
“So miserable.”
“When I can’t control myself, I became really upset and felt like a beast. So it always distressed me seeing my Omega’s sorry state after I woke up in the morning.”
Hearing that, Su Ling glanced up, it was the Alpha who was sitting on the right seat before.
“Boss, stop spreading dog food.”
“Yes, is this a time to spread dog food?”
Ye Lei recorded the result of their testing and ordered, “Go and prepare. The indoor test doesn’t need much help, we’ll just need to monitor the whole process.”
The boss nodded and left with the other four members.
Then Ye Lei said to Su Ling, “I will go to the next door to observe. You can join me or do your own thing. I will contact you if something is up.”
Su Ling: “We won’t join you then, we still have something else to do.”
Before Su Ling leaves the room, he reminded Xian Mo Yu again not to mess around. After lightly pinching the roots, Xian Mo Yu let go of him, and he and Gu Liheng left Room No.1.
They headed to the spiritual plant sample storage room. Su Ling swiped his bracelet and went in. Once inside, it seemed like they have entered an enormous library. The indoor area is large, with rows of shelves placed, just like bookshelves. The level of the spiritual plant sample is written next to the shelf. The closest to the door is Grade E. Each row of shelves has three floors, each with ten grids, which are blocked by small glass windows, and samples are placed inside. A label with the name of the spiritual plant is attached to the upper right corner of the glass window, as well as a brief introduction of the spiritual plant, including the effects of its aroma.
Su Ling sighed in admiration, “What a good place.”
It is a paradise for students majoring in spiritual plant.
Gu Liheng asked, “You like it? It’s not a problem for our Gu company to find all the known spiritual plants listed so far. It just takes time to organize it, and then we will be able to make something like this in the villa.”
“No, it’s not that I like it. I just think it’s very convenient to study this way,” Su Ling said with a laugh. “Don’t do this in the villa. After I noted down the information, it will be useless.” This is definitely a very heavy workload.
Gu Liheng looked at him and nodded.
Smiling, Su Ling took Gu Liheng’s hand and led him to the first grid and said, “Smell it carefully. Tell me which one that makes you feel refreshed, soothed, and comfortable.”
A soft expression appeared on Gu Liheng’s face, “Okay.”
Gu Liheng concentrated on feeling the effects of various spiritual plants’ scent, and Su Ling mentally noted down the fragrance and the name of the spiritual plant. Although he has a better memory now, he still can’t remember things with just a glance. But he won’t force himself, he will just remember as much as he can.
At dinner time, they only managed to get to the Grade D spiritual plant area. There are too many Grade E spiritual plants, accounting for almost half of all types of spiritual plants. Many Grade E spiritual plants have similar effects. Gu Liheng has pointed out a total of 42 spiritual plants, of which 18 are refreshing. Su Ling kept the records, and they left the storage room to eat dinner at the restaurant outside the association.
When they returned, Su Ling walked to the door of the dormitory area, and a root broke out from the ground and swayed in front of him. Su Ling looked at the black hole on the floor, “…If you really want to come out, come out through the window next time?”
Fortunately, it’s just a root. If there’s more… what if the level collapses? He thought about it and felt that it is indeed dangerous. Hence while walking into his room, he explained the consequences of the floor collapsing to Xian Mo Yu.
At the same time, Ye Lei came out of the monitoring room, his eyes fell on the root, “How long is its root?”
Su Ling looked back, then looked at Room No.1. The roots from Room No.1 to the black hole and then to where he stood were at least ten meters away.
“I don’t know either.” In his impression, the roots were like a rubber band that could stretch indefinitely. He rubbed the root of his wrist and asked, “How far can you reach?”
The root lets go of him, went straight to the second floor, and entered his room through the second-floor window.
Ye Lei estimated, “More than twenty meters.”
Soon, the root retracted and disappeared from the black hole it created. After a while, two roots came out of the window of Room No.1 and went directly to Su Ling’s room on the second floor. Although he couldn’t see what is happening, but from the way the roots shook, Su Ling knew that it is swaying in front of Lopseed and Baby’s breath again.
He looked at Ye Lei and asked, “Is it okay that it acted like this?”
Ye Lei raised his head to look at the roots, “It’s okay, it doesn’t affect the test since it’s up in the air[1]. Is there something in your room that it likes?”
Su Ling: “Lopseed and Baby’s breath, it is probably playing with them.”
Hearing that, Ye Lei’s eyes lit up and he made notes on his bracelet, “In other words, Grade S spiritual plant can make friends.”
Su Ling agrees, he thinks Xian Mo Yu regards him as a friend.
…
In the evening, Su Ling’s room.
Su Ling and Gu Liheng sat in the living room, Su Ling looked at the fragrance making courseware, while Gu Liheng handled urgent documents from his company. The two did not communicate, but the atmosphere was very warm. The scent of Lopseed and Baby’s breath in the air makes them very comfortable, and they don’t feel tired regardless of study or work. Xian Mo Yu’s roots stayed until the two plants closed their petals, indicating that they had to rest before moving away from them, and went to Su Ling’s side.
Su Ling casually gave it a squeeze and turned back to focus on the courseware.
Xian Mo Yu stayed for a while, then turned to sway in front of Gu Liheng. Gu Liheng glanced at it and continued to look at his files. Its roots scurried around boredly and finally lay lazily on the windowsill. Suddenly, it felt something, the front end opened up in shock, and soon quickly retracted from the window sill. Its movement was fast and light, so it didn’t make any noise or large movement. Su Ling and Gu Liheng didn’t even find out when it left.
The roots left the window sill but did not return to Room No.1. Instead, it went to the front office building and finally stopped behind the main building. Its front end opened up again, contracting like it was heaving. Then it stopped the action and patted the ground irritably before collapsed on the ground[2]. At the same time, countless roots appeared in Room No.1, some of them rushed towards the door and opened the door. Then the roots stretched straight, lifted the flowers bud, and moved forward. Every time the flower bud move, the roots behind the main building also move forward.
