After Going on a Blind Date With My Omega Love Rival (ABO, GL) - Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Actually, Du Ruo was quite satisfied with Yu Heyi’s appearance, as she basically inherited all the best traits from her and Old Yu. However, Yu Heyi always went out bare-faced, wasting a beautiful face, and paired it with simple white T-shirts or white shirts and black pants. As her mother, Du Ruo always felt Yu Heyi was squandering her efforts.

Most importantly, at 28 years old, Yu Heyi had never been in a relationship. After graduating high school, Yu Heyi went abroad, got hooked on racing, and after returning, was busy with competitions. But Du Ruo always managed to arrange blind dates for her in the midst of her busy schedule, though Yu Heyi rejected them all, citing her racing commitments.

No wonder Du Ruo suspected her daughter liked alphas and not Omegas.

Except for knowing during high school that Yu Heyi liked an Omega, Du Ruo thought her daughter had matured early like her, imagining she might have a granddaughter before turning forty. But that dream shattered soon after. Ten years later, let alone a granddaughter, Du Ruo hadn’t even seen a single Omega by Yu Heyi’s side.

The matter of blind dates was urgent.

Du Ruo didn’t hang up on Old Yu but kept her on the line to listen.

“You’re going on a blind date this time, no excuses.”

Yu Heyi lowered her head, pretending not to hear, but was Du Ruo someone to be trifled with? She cooed to Old Yu on the phone, “Your daughter’s not listening to me~”

Old Yu, the wife-doting maniac, couldn’t resist her wife’s charm. She roared, “Yu Heyi! Your mommy’s talking to you!”

Hitting her weak spot, Yu Heyi’s Achilles’ heel was Old Yu. She’d been somewhat afraid of her strict mother since childhood. Though she wasn’t scared anymore as an adult, when Old Yu got angry, she couldn’t help but give in…

“I don’t have anything to say.”

“Then listen to your mommy.”

Yu Heyi sighed. Clearly, she was the child in this family, so why did she always have to give in to Mommy? Old Yu spoiled her, fine, but she had to spoil her too.

Her mommy truly maximized Omega privileges in front of them.

Yu Heyi glanced at her legs and said, “I’m still lying in a hospital bed. I can’t get out for months. What blind date?”

Du Ruo was clearly prepared. She smiled brightly at Yu Heyi and said, “No rush. You can go when you’re better.”

…So annoying. Yu Heyi had no desire to talk to her mommy anymore.

But Du Ruo kept poking at her heart. “In your current state, you’ll definitely have to retire. You’re almost thirty. You need to hurry up and get married. Look at your classmates and friends—besides Jiang Qi, who’s still unmarried?”

This made Yu Heyi recall the WeChat message from Jing Wan that morning—she was getting married. Her heart sank again. Her mommy’s words were lethal, hitting both of her sore spots at once.

Just then, Yu Heyi’s phone rang. It was Jiang Qi, in the next hospital room. As soon as Yu Heyi answered, she heard Jiang Qi loudly say, “Did you see the news about your goddess Jing Wan getting married?”

…Pretty awkward. Lady Du Ruo overheard Jiang Qi and was staring at her unblinkingly.

“…I saw it.”

Jiang Qi, oblivious to Yu Heyi’s mood, kept talking. “That male alpha is nowhere near as good as you. I don’t know what was wrong with Jing Wan back then, rejecting you because she liked betas, and now she’s marrying an alpha.”

At this point, her tone suddenly turned enlightened. “I get it now. She rejected you because she liked men.”

Oh, come on, why say “rejected” twice? If Du Ruo heard this, it’d be a disaster.

Sure enough, Yu Heyi glanced at her mommy with her peripheral vision. At some point, she’d hung up the phone and was looking at her with a gossip-hungry expression. Yu Heyi had a bad feeling… After hanging up, her mommy would definitely press for details.

And so it happened. The moment Yu Heyi ended Jiang Qi’s call, her mommy asked, “Who’s Jing Wan?”

Resigned, Yu Heyi spilled the secret she’d kept for years, telling Du Ruo everything.

“In high school, I told you I had feelings for an Omega. In my senior year, she rejected me, and then I went abroad…” Before she could finish, Du Ruo interrupted, “So, you haven’t dated all these years because of this Omega?”

Yu Heyi didn’t speak, which was as good as admitting it.

Seeing her like this, Du Ruo was furious. She never imagined Yu Heyi was so sentimental.

“Are you out of your mind?”

Yu Heyi, unprepared for the scolding, was stunned, staring blankly at her dear mommy, speechless.

“What? You don’t think so? Staying chaste for someone who rejected you ten years ago.”

Yu Heyi, clearly unable to accept this, felt her alpha pride wouldn’t allow it!

“I’m not doing it for her!!!”

Du Ruo, still smiling brightly, said, “Then go on the blind date.”

“You’ve lost your career now. It’s time to seize love.”

It made some sense. Jing Wan was getting married, so there was no need to guard her heart for some nonexistent love.

Besides, she didn’t really like Jing Wan that much anymore. She just hadn’t met someone else she liked, so her first and only love, Jing Wan, lingered in her mind.

“Fine, I’ll go on the blind date.”

Hearing this, Du Ruo got so excited she hugged Yu Heyi’s face and kissed her. The kiss left Yu Heyi dazed, unable to process. The last time her mommy was this affectionate was probably before her differentiation.

As an alpha, she had some awareness. Though this Omega was her mommy, after differentiating, they hadn’t been this close. Partly because she didn’t like it, but more importantly… if Old Yu saw, she’d probably kill her.

An alpha’s possessiveness was strong. Some alphas were fine with their kids being close to their wives, but Old Yu, the wife-doting maniac alpha, absolutely wouldn’t allow it.

It happened soon after Yu Heyi differentiated. A simple hug with her mommy sent Old Yu’s pheromones skyrocketing… How old was Yu Heyi then? How could she withstand it? In an instant, she was suppressed by the minty pheromones.

She felt uncomfortable and confused… Then she sensed rose-mixed-with-mint pheromones—her mommy’s scent.

Calmed down, Old Yu’s mood suddenly brightened, but only toward Du Ruo. When she looked at Yu Heyi, her gaze was sharp as she said, “Hurry up and find your own Omega. Don’t cling to mine.”

Sure enough, she was a stumbling block. Yu Heyi felt utterly miserable.

Du Ruo gave her a coquettish glare, somewhat displeased with Old Yu’s attitude toward their daughter. She reached to support Yu Heyi, but Yu Heyi dodged under her mother’s stern gaze.

She was still young and didn’t want to experience that kind of suppression from a mature alpha again.

It was too painful.

Over time, she stopped wanting to be close to her mommy and didn’t have time for it either.

So this sudden kiss left Yu Heyi terrified…

Du Ruo saw the fear in her eyes and felt a pang of hurt. A bit aggrieved, she said, “Heyi, is Mommy that scary?”

“No… I’m just not used to it.”

Even without Yu Heyi’s explanation, Du Ruo knew why. Her expression grew rare and serious as she said earnestly to Yu Heyi, “You’re not young anymore. You really should have your own Omega.”

It’s well-known that Alphas and Omegas have special heat periods. Though an alpha’s susceptibility period is easier than an Omega’s heat, inhibitors can manage it. But after thirty, continued use, while possible, brings side effects, like irregular heat or susceptibility periods.

So, most Alphas and Omegas marry before thirty, which is better for both.

Seeing her mommy so serious, Yu Heyi nodded obediently for once. Even if her mommy hadn’t said it, she knew, and she wasn’t as resistant to blind dates as before.

Before, it was because of an impossible person and her love for racing.

But now? The person she liked was getting married, and she couldn’t race anymore. She wasn’t young, and her mommy wasn’t either. She reached out, took her mommy’s hand, and looked closely at her eyes…

Okay, her mommy still looked young, with just some fine lines, appearing not even forty. Standing together, they looked more like sisters than mother and daughter.

“Mommy, have you considered having a second child?”

“Get lost!!!”
