MORIC - Chapter 17
Chapter 17: Punishment
Chi Yueshan was startled by Xi Zhoumeng's action.
For a moment, she didn't dare to move, only feeling the other's breath on her neck.
Finally, a hand pressed against her gland, and Xi Zhoumeng said in a low voice, "You like watching her change clothes that much?"
The words were too explicit, as if Chi Yueshan were some kind of pervert.
Chi Yueshan finally reacted, shoving Xi Zhoumeng away forcefully. She patted down her clothes and huffed, "What's it to you! Senior Wen didn't say anything, so what right do you have to lecture me?"
To her surprise, Xi Zhoumeng was pushed so hard she stumbled back onto the sofa, letting out a delicate grunt.
Even the shoulder strap of her dress was knocked askew, revealing a smooth, rounded shoulder.
Chi Yueshan stared at Xi Zhoumeng without any reservation. The last time in the public bathhouse, she had already figured out this person padded her chest, and today was no different. She wondered how many layers of padding there were.
Xi Zhoumeng pulled her shoulder strap back up and leaned in again. "Who's lecturing you? Re-tie this for me."
She was referring to the one on her chest.
Chi Yueshan's eyes widened. "Why should I! You're the one who came over here."
She had taken off her hair clip for her stakeout, so she was back to her usual look with half her face covered.
However, this sprout-yellow shirt was quite cute.
It made her look less gloomy.
Xi Zhoumeng didn't even consider the option of tying it herself, as if she were ordering a servant. "Hurry up, the match is about to start."
Chi Yueshan: "I won't!"
She turned to leave, but Xi Zhoumeng grabbed her wrist. The academy's dream Omega was surprisingly strong; even Chi Yueshan, who could send an Alpha flying, couldn't break free from her grip.
The female Omega, head lowered, spoke with a hint of a smile in her voice, "Then, Chi Yueshan, how are you going to explain how you got in here?"
"I could consider having the electronic dogs arrest you."
Chi Yueshan had almost been bitten by an electronic dog before. She hated these electronic plush dogs; they looked big and were very fierce.
They were specifically designed to detect suspicious individuals, and the definition of 'suspicious' was very broad, yet they never caught people who were dating.
Well, what era was it now, after all.
They should just arrest all the flies buzzing around Senior Wen!
How annoying. Xi Zhoumeng was not only her love rival but also a damn big shot at the academy, and on top of that, the president of the organization sponsoring this school event.
Chi Yueshan bit her lip. "How do I tie it?"
It was undeniable that this person looked good with both black and brown hair, but this dress was just too troublesome. If a strap came loose, it had to be re-tied.
Chi Yueshan grumbled, "Then how did you put it on yourself? So annoying."
Xi Zhoumeng sat down on the sofa, her collar open, offering an endless view. Chi Yueshan could even see the faint outline of her abdomen.
What the heck? It's incredibly difficult for Omegas to get defined abs. Isn't that supposed to be a matter of genetics?
Why does this person look so much like an Omega on the outside but have such a great body?
Not the fleshy, soft type at all.
Damn it, damn it, damn it.
Chi Yueshan bent over, holding the red cord in her hands, completely at a loss.
Xi Zhoumeng watched her with great interest, one hand propping up her chin. Her gaze roamed up and down, as if it could penetrate the little slob's clothes.
【System: Harmony Warning!】
【System: Can you do something proper for once!】
Xi Zhoumeng thought: I really have no feelings for Wen Xinghuo. She's completely not my type. Even if this wasn't an ABO setting, a T-type like Wen Xinghuo couldn't interest me at all.
【System: Chi Yueshan's destiny is to die. You are free to ignore her.】
Xi Zhoumeng stared at the face before her. Chi Yueshan's eyes were beautiful; even when scrunched up, her face was still cute.
So the original work's description was a total scam.
What's wrong with being cannon fodder? As long as Wen Xinghuo and her wifey are all lovey-dovey, it doesn't matter if we cannon fodder stay alive, right?
【System: The premise is that Wen Xinghuo's love line is perfect.】
Xi Zhoumeng pressed her lips together. Her long, shimmering hair draped over her shoulders and was tremblingly pushed back by Chi Yueshan.
The red cord on the front of the black dress was picked up. Chi Yueshan tried to tighten it, but clumsily cinched it too tight against Xi Zhoumeng's chest.
Xi Zhoumeng let out a soft "mmph".
Chi Yueshan's movements froze. She glanced at Xi Zhoumeng.
Xi Zhoumeng was looking at her intently.
Chi Yueshan thought: How did she do her makeup? How is it so clear and translucent?
Didn't this person usually not wear bright lipstick? This matte red actually suits her so well.
Oh, it's the same color as this red cord.
Such attention to detail, Young Miss.
Chi Yueshan loosened the cord, only to find it had left a mark on the other's skin. The red on the snow-white skin was almost blinding.
Holy crap! No way! Is her skin that delicate?
Chi Yueshan was completely stunned. The ointment she had spent ten thousand Star Coins on last time popped into her mind. She wondered if Xi Zhoumeng had used it all up. She's not going to make me go to the school infirmary again, is she? No way, no way, right?
She doesn't actually sleep on that many mattresses, does she???
A real pea?
Xi Zhoumeng saw it too. She reached out and grabbed Chi Yueshan's collar, forcing Chi Yueshan to tilt her head up and meet her gaze.
"Did you do that on purpose?"
Xi Zhoumeng's hand was a bit cold, or maybe it was her nail extensions that were icy.
Chi Yueshan shook her head.
She looked rather pitiful right now.
Xi Zhoumeng: "What use are you."
Chi Yueshan: "You're the one who wanted me."
Xi Zhoumeng: "You can't even do this?"
Chi Yueshan felt truly wronged. She had hardly ever worn a dress, let alone one like this.
"I don't even own a dress like this."
She muttered.
Xi Zhoumeng snorted and said imperiously, "You, take it off."
Chi Yueshan clutched her chest, a look of horror on her face. "What? Are you crazy?"
Xi Zhoumeng: "You wear this."
Chi Yueshan: "You're not planning to go see Senior Wen naked, are you?! So scheming!"
She spoke without thinking whenever she was in front of Xi Zhoumeng.
Xi Zhoumeng sent a message on her light-brain, then replied to Chi Yueshan through gritted teeth, "If I wanted someone, it would be easy. I wouldn't have to go to such lengths."
For once, the young miss asked seriously, "What's so great about Wen Xinghuo that's worth you going this crazy?"
Chi Yueshan took a few steps back. "Is it wrong for me to like an Alpha? Isn't it natural for an Omega to like an Alpha?"
Xi Zhoumeng thought about her own compatibility rate with this silly girl.
If I were really an Alpha, she thought, you'd be fucking stuck on me.
But if that were the case, she would find it boring.
She had always detested predetermined destinies, the idea that being a certain type of person meant you had to bear certain responsibilities.
How could destiny be predetermined? She refused to believe it. To destroy was to rebuild.
To live as if in a drunken dream was Xi Zhoumeng's rule for life.
Even after transmigrating into this book, it was the same.
She still didn't believe in predetermined destiny, and this system couldn't possibly stop her completely.
She wanted a new trajectory, and she also wanted to make this little slob, Chi Yueshan, deviate from her predetermined path.
Affection was part of it, but it was mostly rebellion.
She didn't want fate's predestination. She only wanted...
...what I want.
"Yes, it's perfectly natural."
Xi Zhoumeng stood up and reached out to take off Chi Yueshan's clothes.
She was a defective Omega, or possibly an Alpha. Wen Xinghuo's occasionally overflowing pheromones only ever repulsed her.
Before, Xi Zhoumeng thought she just hated the smell of gunpowder, but now it seemed to be a case of like-repels-like.
But Chi Yueshan's pheromones, drawn out by Wen Xinghuo's, made her restless.
At this moment, she wanted to ruthlessly suppress this love-struck little slob.
Chi Yueshan was backed into a corner. Her pride-and-joy physical strength was ineffective against Xi Zhoumeng under the influence of their 100% compatibility.
She almost thought she was sick.
Her jacket was taken off, her pocket-covered pants were taken off, and just as Xi Zhoumeng was about to pull at Chi Yueshan's shirt, the doorbell rang.
Duan Daizhen's voice came from outside— "Zhoumeng?"
Xi Zhoumeng hummed in acknowledgment and shushed Chi Yueshan.
She drew the partition curtain and went to open the door.
The match hadn't started yet, but most people had already had their tickets checked and entered.
When Duan Daizhen received the message from Xi Zhoumeng's light-brain, she thought she had misread it.
Xi Zhoumeng had asked her to bring a change of clothes.
The academy organizations they ran all had their own uniforms. Xi Zhoumeng was planning to change anyway, so the timing was perfect.
Duan Daizhen knew Wen Xinghuo had already gone to warm up, so she didn't peek inside.
She stared in astonishment at Xi Zhoumeng's chest. The red mark was incredibly eye-catching. Her eyes widened, and she let out an "Ohh."
Xi Zhoumeng took the clothes. "It's from the lacing. What are you thinking?"
Inside, Chi Yueshan tremblingly pulled her pants back on. She felt that something was definitely wrong with her.
How could she have her pants stripped off by such a delicate Omega?
It shouldn't be possible. Even if Xi Zhoumeng is taller than me and has a larger frame, she's so dramatic, picky, and delicate. How could she possibly overpower me?
It must be the coffee I drank on the way here.
Chi Yueshan then felt pathetic, as if she were born with the fate of a servant girl, unable to handle expensive things.
Chi Yueshan could also hear Duan Daizhen's voice.
"Isn't it obvious? Wow, I never thought Wen Xinghuo, who looks so honest and innocent, would be so..."
She clicked her tongue a few times and said in a teasing tone, "Zhoumeng, you're so big and so soft, of course she'd want to... you know. Ahem, it's a bit embarrassing to say, but actually, I kind of want to as well."
It was very obvious which words were emphasized.
Chi Yueshan's face soured as if she had eaten a bug.
Big, soft, my, ass.
It's padding.
And she's not bigger than me.
The next second, Chi Yueshan felt it was pointless to compare, but she had indeed been the one to make the mark.
I didn't feel a thing.
If Senior Xinghuo and I get to know each other, she'll definitely be charmed by me.
My figure might not be smoking hot, but it's not bad either.
Even when I was a streamer, a lot of people praised me! That one person even called me their Muse.
Definitely! No problem!
Xi Zhoumeng laughed. "It's really not that. I just thought it would be a hassle to go back, so I decided to change here."
Duan Daizhen didn't believe her at all. She let out a few affected "aiya"s, gave her an "I get it" look, and left, glancing back every few steps.
Xi Zhoumeng closed the door and changed into the new clothes right in front of Chi Yueshan.
Chi Yueshan: ...
"What on earth are you trying to do!!!"
Xi Zhoumeng changed into the Omega Council president's uniform, gaining an awe-inspiring and unapproachable air.
She walked toward Chi Yueshan, holding the dress she had just taken off. "Of course, it's to punish you."
Xi Zhoumeng used to be strictly disciplined. After she was let off the leash, she learned a lot. Her past girlfriends were of all different types.
Love was incredibly illusory, but she always seemed to remain clear-headed. Moreover, she would get tired of it every time things were about to get more serious.
No feeling, no interest. It was better to have fun on her own.
Chi Yueshan's type was her cup of tea, but she had never seriously "eaten" it before.
Chi Yueshan: "Who cares about you."
But the next second, she remembered this person's status, as well as her own act of exploiting a bug to sneak in and peep.
Ah... if I get exposed, it'll be a complete social death.
She shot Xi Zhoumeng a hateful glare, but in the end, she obediently put it on.
Xi Zhoumeng was much taller than her, so the dress was naturally quite long on Chi Yueshan.
But this young miss, as if she had found a new toy, made the red cord seem alive in her hands. In just a few movements, it was re-tied.
It looked like a new dress.
Chi Yueshan didn't dare to move. Xi Zhoumeng's breath washed over her, and her fingers swept across her body, as if measuring her, yet also as if teasing her.
They were both Omegas, yet Chi Yueshan felt completely suppressed.
Especially the look in Xi Zhoumeng's eyes as she did this—utterly focused.
It was as if Chi Yueshan were her most precious model, a priceless treasure she wouldn't trade for anything.
It's an illusion.
Chi Yueshan said to herself.
This is the greatest love rival of my life.
She repeated this silently in her heart several times, but when she saw herself in the mirror, she was still stunned.
Chi Yueshan, who came from the slums of the Lower World, had never enjoyed any luxuries in her life.
The most peaceful and wonderful period of her life was when she worked with her Master in the underground machine city.
But by then, she was already an Omega who wasn't very Omega-like.
Being too much of an Omega was actually a bad thing.
This world was sometimes cruel. If it was divided into an Upper and Lower World, why was there unconditional shared network access?
The noble Omegas on the network were glamorous and bright, while she was destined to live a dusty, hard-working life.
Chi Yueshan had never worn a dress.
They were troublesome, unsuitable for assembling equipment or modifying mecha.
Too fussy, and they got dirty easily.
But a dress... was a beautiful dream.
In this mirror, Chi Yueshan saw the self from her dreams.
But the one who granted her this dream was a devil.
Xi Zhoumeng lowered her head, pretending to talk to Chi Yueshan, but took advantage of her being unguarded to rip off her pheromone patch.
In an instant, the scent of rust flooded the entire lounge.
Before Chi Yueshan could even react, she heard Xi Zhoumeng's voice, feigning a deliberate apology—
"Your pheromone patch was peeling up. My OCD can't stand it."
