After Going on a Blind Date With My Omega Love Rival (ABO, GL) - Chapter 65

Chapter 65

The convoy left the school at 8 a.m. sharp, heading to Linyang City, the summer camp destination, about three hours away. Now halfway through, they’d entered Linyang’s boundaries, driving along winding mountain roads. The view was endless peaks, and the temperature had dropped a few degrees.

But Yu Heyi’s face felt hot, especially after saying, “Who’d our kid look like more?”

One second, she’d claimed to like Chi Ruixi only a little; the next, she was talking about their child.

Her brain must’ve short-circuited. Absolutely.

And she wasn’t the only one who thought so—she could tell from Chi Ruixi’s look that she agreed.

For a long while, Chi Ruixi just stared, silent.

Yu Heyi, embarrassed, touched her nose awkwardly, avoiding Chi Ruixi’s gaze…

She’d humiliated herself completely.

The rest of the ride was quiet. Yu Heyi was mortified, and Chi Ruixi simply didn’t want to deal with her.

She thought Yu Heyi was being a bit dramatic… better to look at the scenery than at her.

Yu Heyi, still embarrassed, joined Chi Ruixi in silently watching the view.

Linyang’s scenery grew more stunning as they entered. The mountains glowed vibrantly.

Linyang City, with its mountains, rivers, springs, and forests, had breathtaking landscapes. It was the closest tourist city to Xijing and ranked among the top nationwide.

The camp’s destination was Linyang Grand Canyon, one of the city’s most famous spots in recent years, upgraded about seven or eight years ago.

The canyon featured natural waterfalls, ice climbing in winter, and cooling off in summer. Downstream, there was rafting, but post-upgrade, it offered more: a glass walkway near the mountaintop, cliff swings, aerial walks, and more…

Before coming, Yu Heyi researched the canyon. She’d visited during a middle school summer camp, when it was mostly natural scenery with little beyond rafting.

This time, she planned to have fun.

The closer they got, the more excited Yu Heyi became, thinking about the activities. She grabbed Chi Ruixi’s hand, thrilled. “Ruixi, would you dare try those?”

Her eyes sparkled, clearly forgetting the earlier awkwardness. Chi Ruixi looked back, thinking, as expected, this woman’s heart was as big as ever.

She had a childlike side, forgetting everything when excited about fun. But… Chi Ruixi genuinely liked this Yu Heyi and was easily infected by her joy.

“If it’s not too thrilling, I can try…”

At that, Yu Heyi’s eyes lit up, her tone even more excited. “Glass walkway? Cliff swing?”

She was asking Chi Ruixi, but didn’t notice her pursed lips and timid expression, continuing animatedly, “I want to try the aerial walk and rafting. They must be thrilling.”

Back in middle school, her biggest regret was missing rafting. She was too young, restricted from most activities, only able to sightsee.

So, she’d never done rafting.

But Chi Ruixi…

Wasn’t keen on thrilling stuff.

“Yu Heyi.”

Yu Heyi snapped out of her thoughts. “Hm? What’s up?”

Chi Ruixi had been here years ago and wasn’t too interested in the activities.

“You want to do all of them?” Her expression was… hard to read.

Yu Heyi naturally assumed Chi Ruixi might be scared. Omegas generally weren’t as bold as alphas, and Yu Heyi, even among alphas, was particularly daring.

As a former racer, she was unfazed by fast-paced activities. They might not even feel thrilling, but she wanted to try.

She overlooked that Chi Ruixi might be afraid.

“It’s okay, I’ll be there. If… you’re really scared, we’ll skip it.”

Her disappointment was obvious. Chi Ruixi pursed her lips, then pinched Yu Heyi’s cheek, her voice soft, coaxing. “Let’s decide when we get there, okay?”

Even if Yu Heyi was awkward, how could she resist Chi Ruixi’s gentle tone?

Chi Ruixi was so sweet, willing to join despite her fears.

And she considered Yu Heyi’s disappointment, which touched her. Nodding, she smiled. “At the site, I’ll listen to you.”

Then Yu Heyi felt guilty.

She’d done plenty of thrilling activities at home and abroad. Her excitement stemmed from doing them with Chi Ruixi.

She’d hoped thrilling activities would make Chi Ruixi, like many omegas, cling to her softly, letting her show off her alpha protectiveness.

Ideally, with teary eyes.

So, hearing Chi Ruixi’s reluctance, she felt let down. But her coaxing tone quickly cheered her up, even made her smug, feeling Chi Ruixi’s softness before they’d even started.

Her thoughts were selfish.

Those fantasies paled compared to a soft Chi Ruixi. She wanted to pinch her cheeks… shamelessly, everywhere.

Glancing around, most people were asleep, a few awake but on their phones…

Yu Heyi’s hand rested between their legs, itching to move.

It was about to touch Chi Ruixi’s leg, and she didn’t notice.

But just as it was close, Chi Ruixi’s phone rang. Startled, Yu Heyi pulled back, pretending to admire the scenery…

Chi Ruixi gave her an odd look, sensing something off…

But her phone kept ringing—it was Chi Shengxi.

Not avoiding Yu Heyi, Chi Ruixi answered.

“Hey, Ruixi.” It was noisy on Chi Shengxi’s end, like an airport.

“Sis…”

“I’m heading on a business trip.”

“Hm?”

Chi Ruixi didn’t get it. Since when did Chi Shengxi report her trips?

The next words clarified—it was about Chi Ying.

“If it goes well, I’ll be back in a week. If not… maybe over two weeks or more. I thought if I’m back soon, I’d pick up Xiao Ying…”

Chi Ruixi listened silently. Chi Shengxi paused, then said, “Today’s the summer camp, right?”

“Yeah.”

Answering, Chi Ruixi glanced at Yu Heyi, who sat expressionless, as if nothing was happening.

If Yu Heyi’s hand wasn’t on her leg, she’d have thought nothing of it.

Resting there, rubbing—did she think Chi Ruixi wouldn’t notice?

“Ruixi, you listening?”

Chi Shengxi, getting no response, asked again.

“Bad signal, I didn’t catch that.”

Chi Shengxi repeated, “I think Xiao Ying staying with you is intrusive, especially since you have an alpha now. It’s not ideal for her to cling to you…”

Chi Ruixi glanced at her “alpha,” pretending innocence while her hand brushed her leg.

Through fabric—what could she even feel?

Chi Shengxi continued, “I think, if Xiao Ying doesn’t want to go back to the Chi family, she could stay at my apartment in your complex.”

“I’ll talk to Xiao Ying.”

Chi Ruixi couldn’t decide for her, so she said this.

Chi Shengxi understood. She’d have called Chi Ying herself, but Chi Ying probably wouldn’t talk properly.

“Okay, let me know if anything comes up.”

Chi Ruixi put her phone away, watching Yu Heyi’s act with interest. After a while, Yu Heyi still pretended nothing was up.

Unable to resist, Chi Ruixi asked, “Why’s your hand on my leg?”

She expected Yu Heyi to pull back or blush, but instead, Yu Heyi shamelessly said, “Can’t I put it on my omega’s leg?”

So brazen. Not long ago, she claimed not to like her, now calling her “my omega.”

Her hand grew warmer, yet she stayed stubborn.

Even if Yu Heyi said she liked touching, Chi Ruixi couldn’t object.

They didn’t talk further, both resting with closed eyes.

After another hour, they reached Linyang Grand Canyon.

When the bus stopped, Chi Ruixi woke groggily, realizing she’d fallen asleep on Yu Heyi’s shoulder. Yu Heyi was asleep too, her hand now on Chi Ruixi’s inner thigh.

“Wake up, we’re here.” Chi Ruixi pinched Yu Heyi’s cheek, but she only frowned, still asleep.

Before she could call again, a male teacher upfront yelled, “We’re here, wake up!”

His voice was loud, startling Yu Heyi awake.

Sitting in the back, they weren’t in a rush. Once Yu Heyi was more awake, Chi Ruixi urged, “Let’s go, everyone’s off.”

Yu Heyi had slept deeply, surrounded by Chi Ruixi’s pheromones, more comforting than ever. Waking, she was dazed.

She even wanted to act cute with Chi Ruixi, being clingy.

“Ugh… Ruixi, I’m so sleepy.”

She rested her head on Chi Ruixi’s shoulder. Chi Ruixi pushed, but couldn’t budge her, then pinched her ear, saying softly, “Be good.”

Yu Heyi, nestled in her shoulder, blushed instantly.

Sister Chi’s voice was so gentle…

She felt so lucky. Like a puppy, she nuzzled Chi Ruixi’s shoulder, whining cutely. She never thought she was clingy, but Chi Ruixi’s gentle tone made her feel not acting cute would waste it.

“Sister Chi, I really want to sleep hugging you~~”

So clingy, it was almost annoying.

So Chi Ruixi teased, “Our kid better not be as clingy as you.”
