The Perfect Heroine wants to Possess me {English Translation}

Chapter 36

As the cool autumn breeze swept through the classroom's back row, vibrant yellow butterflies adorned with hues of gold and orange gracefully fluttered in the wind.

Instantly, Ji Xiao grasped the silent message conveyed by the packaging box.

"Oh, so a mysterious admirer is revealing their feelings already? Xiao-jie certainly deserves to be the most famous after last week," Fang Yiming exclaimed, not bothering to lower her voice, her eyes fixated on the small cake resting on the table.

Observing the curious glances from their classmates drawn by Fang Yiming's comment, Ji Xiao playfully jabbed her shoulder. "Keep it down," she chided, before tapping the back of the desk on the front row and calling out, "Sun Min, any idea who left this?"

Sun Min glanced at the cake, shaking his head. "No clue. It was here when I arrived. But this isn't your average treat; it's from Xetr, a high-end bakery."

His tablemate chimed in, teasingly, "Looks like Xiao-jie's popularity is off the charts."

Ji Xiao let out a dismissive snort. "Quit it," she said, disinterested in such attention.

"Xiao-jie, did you know you need to order these cakes a week in advance? This isn't your run-of-the-mill sports meeting prize!"

"Your popularity knows no bounds, Xiao-jie!"

...

As the wind carried snippets of conversation from the window through the vacant back row, Wei Qingyu's hand, clutching a book, hesitated noticeably.

Pretending nonchalance amidst Fang Yiming's teasing, she subtly shifted her gaze to the focal point—the creamy little cake.

The delicately tied bow gently swayed with the breeze, resembling a tiny butterfly alighting on Ji Xiao's desk. The sun cast a mesmerizing pattern upon it, tempting on lookers, yet to Wei Qingyu, it casted an overwhelming indignation.

A gift from an omega...

Before their conversation could continue, Ji Xiao tapped the box housing the cake, halting their banter. "Since you all say this cake is so delicious, how about we eat it together?"

Sun Min waved his hands hastily. "Xiao-jie, it's a gift for you. We can't possibly accept it."

"Exactly. Imagine if the omega who sent it to you found out you gave it away, she'd be devastated. You should just enjoy it yourself."

"Yeah, Xiao-jie, it's a gift from someone else. You can't just give it away," Fang Yiming interjected, her tone laced with playfulness. "Whoever sent it must be quite forward. You're an alpha yourself. Don't you want to start a sweet campus romance?"

At the mention of "campus romance," Wei Qingyu's expression grew colder involuntarily.

Gazing at the pot of yellowing orchids atop the cabinet, she felt a fog descend upon her heart, weighing her down with melancholy.

"How enchanting campus romances are, free from the burdens of adulthood, just young souls lost in love, hands intertwined in secret behind the woods..."

As Fang Yiming rambled on, Wei Qingyu quietly tidied her books, intending to leave from the reach of this conversation.

However, just as she was about to depart, Ji Xiao's voice reached her ears. "Hey, Wei Qingyu."

Halting in her tracks, Wei Qingyu, known for her graceful stride, made an uncharacteristic clunk as her heel met the floor.

She stood upright, meeting Ji Xiao's gaze head-on. "What is it?" she inquired, her tone composed.
