A Heartthrob Transmigrated as the Scumbag Alpha's Ex-Wife - Chapter 9
It was worth mentioning that in the original plot, after the heroine Gu Qiyou was forcibly catalyzed into becoming an Omega, she became extremely disgusted with all Alphas. Later, her official wife was also an Omega.
If a high-level Omega’s pheromones contained special aggressive components, they could have the function of reverse-marking an Alpha. However, this function would not have any major effect on the Alpha’s gland. It was only equivalent to an Alpha temporarily marking an Omega.
This was a normal physiological phenomenon in the ABO world, but in this book, in order for the two heroines to “communicate” better, the author modified the setting and wrote that the heroine, as an aggressive Omega, could also perform a shallow mark on other Omegas.
Naturally, the official wife was a gentle, soft, and weak Omega.
……
Duan Qingyi had heard of Mu Yu’s “famous name” before, but this was her first time speaking to her face-to-face. She had originally thought the other woman would be an extremely sharp and intimidating person, but unexpectedly, the moment she came out of the interview room, she ran right into Mu Yu’s gentle smile.
The woman was very beautiful. Unlike other hot Alphas with aggressive appearances, Mu Yu’s looks sat somewhere between the traditional Alpha and Omega types. She was neither so aggressive that people wanted to avoid her, nor so soft that she seemed weak and powerless. Above her clear eyes were beautiful, free-spirited natural brows. Her red lips were pale in color but full, slightly lifted as if she were smiling, making people feel comfortable just by looking at her.
As the saying went, one did not hit a smiling face, not to mention that this was a beautiful woman. Anyone who saw her would find her pleasing to the eye.
As a newly rising young actress, Duan Qingyi was already very respectful toward seniors. Seeing this, she immediately nodded in greeting to Mu Yu. Mu Yu smiled back. The two of them appeared harmonious and friendly, without the slightest trace of the tragic scene in the plot where they tore into each other the moment they met.
But everything was fully seen by Gu Qiyou upstairs.
Gu Qiyou let out a cold snort. An inexplicable sour feeling spread through her heart, like a cat’s paw scratching hard inside it. From an initial faint itch, it gradually tore the skin and drew blood, the wound deepening little by little.
She had wondered why this woman had suddenly become so strange. She had not expected that Mu Yu had taken a fancy to a beautiful Omega. At first, Gu Qiyou had only felt that the two of them each took what they needed in this marriage, but that did not mean she could just watch herself being cheated on.
Even if Mu Yu was only her wife in name.
Besides, she always felt that Mu Yu was hiding something from her.
Downstairs, Mu Yu, who had chatted with Duan Qingyi for a few sentences, was completely unaware of her other half’s emotions. All she could think about was making sure the main love interest first had a good impression of her, so that after the two heroines got together later, Duan Qingyi would not immediately turn hostile toward her.
Duan Qingyi had a gentle temperament and was modest and polite. Mu Yu’s first impression of her was actually fairly good. After the two exchanged a few friendly words and politely separated, Mu Yu returned and saw Gu Qiyou sitting expressionlessly on the rattan chair in the only double room, trimming her nails.
“Youyou!”
According to the original plot, the scumbag Alpha initially treated Gu Qiyou fairly well on the variety show, but as time passed, she gradually became unable to restrain herself. The scumbag Alpha was naturally flirtatious. Here, she would meet a beautiful staff member, and because Gu Qiyou refused to let her touch her, she could not help wanting a little taste elsewhere.
Duan Qingyi personally witnessing the ambiguity between the two was the beginning of the widening rift with Gu Qiyou. Even if Gu Qiyou and Mu Yu were only in a business relationship, anyone would be unable to endure their spouse repeatedly cheating within the marriage and speaking harshly to them.
Looking at her still-precarious character setting value recently, Mu Yu decided to properly copy the path the scumbag Alpha would take. Her character setting value had not risen. Not only Gu Qiyou, even Mu Qing had begun to suspect her identity.
If she were exposed on the spot in front of those people, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Just as Mu Yu was racking her brains, Gu Qiyou’s voice abruptly interrupted her thoughts. There were still a few minutes before the livestream officially began, and the room’s soundproofing was decent, so they could still speak freely. The woman used a file to smooth the last sharp edges of her nails, then seemed to casually raise her head and ask,
“That physical checkup your sister mentioned last time—when do you plan to go?”
“My sister?”
Mu Yu was stunned for a moment before reacting. Who else could the “sister” she was talking about be besides Mu Qing?
She had transmigrated into this body several years ago. Before that, Mu Yu did not know which hospital the original owner had a good relationship with, nor did she dare rashly bribe a doctor to call a black cat white and reverse her sex on the report. Because of this, Mu Yu was especially resistant to the physical checkup. After dealing with them that day, she had not taken it seriously. After all, they were all adults. Who would actually come and urge her to get examined?
Gu Qiyou’s sudden question made her slightly alert. Mu Yu quietly examined her expression and asked half-jokingly,
“What? Do you really want to have a child too?”
Based on Gu Qiyou’s personality, Mu Yu guessed that she would definitely seriously reject such a question with displeasure. But today, as if she had taken the wrong medicine, Gu Qiyou actually nodded half-jokingly too. She even raised her phone to show Mu Yu the physical checkup appointment options from several hospitals.
Nowadays, the medical industry was advanced. To better protect customer privacy, AI automatic examination rooms had even been created. For twice the price of an ordinary physical checkup, one could experience them. Privacy was especially strong, and both single-person and two-person options were available.
Gu Qiyou meant that if Mu Yu did not want doctors touching her here and there, they could go to an AI automatic examination room. In any case, after the variety show finished filming, there would still be two days before they joined the production crew. Even on set, it would not be completely closed off. They could still squeeze out that bit of time.
Mu Yu’s heart tightened, but on the surface, she let out a sneer.
“If she tells me to do something, I have to do it? Does she really think she’s my sister or my boss? It’s just that the year-end company assessment went badly, and the old man is planning to take back some of the shares in her hands. She’s flying into a rage out of humiliation and wants to take it out on someone else. She can’t touch my eldest brother’s side, so she wants to pick a soft persimmon to squeeze…”
She spoke extremely quickly, but Gu Qiyou soon interrupted her endless stream of words.
The woman calmly raised her phone screen. She had actually already paid the deposit for a chain AI automatic examination room and could go anytime.
“Your grandfather has urged us many times to have a child. Even if we don’t have one now, he will definitely bring it up again within the next six months. So rather than letting him nag us over and over again, it’s better for us to get the checkup done first and put his mind at ease.”
Looking at Mu Yu’s expression, which seemed to change slightly in an instant, Gu Qiyou slowly stood and moved closer, forcing the woman to retreat step by step until she reached the corner.
As the distance between them narrowed, the difference in their heights seemed to become even more obvious. When the warm breath so close to her face brushed against her skin, Mu Yu even had to lift her chin slightly to make up for the few centimeters between them.
It seemed that if Gu Qiyou lowered her head just a little more, she could kiss her directly in this ambiguous atmosphere.
“Actually, I’ve been thinking about something since a few days ago.”
Gu Qiyou deliberately lowered her voice. Her breath fell against Mu Yu’s earlobe, tingling and itching faintly. Mu Yu’s heart almost leaped into her throat. Inwardly, her thoughts stormed like wind and rain as she considered what consequences would follow if Gu Qiyou discovered her abnormal identity.
After all, her little life was now in Gu Qiyou’s hands. Should she immediately kneel and beg that damned system for mercy first?
Seeing that she really looked so nervous, Gu Qiyou became even more certain.
“Sis… Mu Yu, are you unable to perform?”
