A Max-Level Film Queen Takes on the Scumbag Alpha Script [Transmigration] - Chapter 12
Tonight, the villa was brilliantly lit, and a cool evening breeze swept away the sweltering heat of the summer night.
Fang Moli and her clique had entered with their families and didn’t feel the need to socialize with others. Consequently, the area where they were staying was quite far from the center of the banquet, with only an occasional waiter passing by.
Jiang Baihe was walking back, intending to find Yan Shu where she had left her. Normally, she would have chosen to stroll slowly and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, but now…
“Can you stop following me, please?”
Jiang Baihe turned around, her head throbbing with a growing headache. She looked at the persistent person behind her, feeling her temper begin to flare.
This person was an Omega—one the scumbag Alpha had flirted with in the past.
In the original book, the scumbag Alpha didn’t dare to be too outrageous in the beginning. After the marriage with Yan Shu was finalized, she had cut ties with all her previous Omegas and stopped contacting them. It wasn’t until later, after entering Shining 404 and realizing Yan Shu couldn’t control her (and actually relied on her), that the Alpha regained her courage. She reverted to her playgirl nature, engaging in secret affairs with several contestants and leaving a trail of broken hearts.
By the later stages of the plot, the unchecked Alpha played even more dangerously. She didn’t just cheat on Yan Shu multiple times, but she even marked another Omega and got her pregnant, all while subjecting Yan Shu to various forms of abuse. This eventually broke Yan Shu’s final straw, leading her to risk her own life to fight back and make the Alpha pay a devastating price.
Because of this, Jiang Baihe had chosen to withdraw from the survival show immediately upon transmigrating. She thought that by escaping the plot of the book, she could avoid all subsequent conflicts. She never expected that the trouble wouldn’t come from the future “breakup” drama, but from an Omega who had already been cut off before the marriage.
The original scumbag Alpha was a veteran in the game of love. Her repertoire of sweet talk and empty promises—“I’ll love only you forever”—had completely tricked this Omega into believing the Alpha truly loved her and had only left because of some hidden, tragic reason. Therefore, even though the Alpha was now married to Yan Shu, this Omega refused to let go. Finding an opportunity to see her today, she immediately chased after her.
Jiang Baihe found this behavior incomprehensible. They had broken up, yet the girl wouldn’t let go. And honestly, what was there to like about the original scumbag anyway? The mess was made by the Alpha, but Jiang Baihe was the one stuck holding the “black pot.”
Sigh, that’s just the luck of transmigrating into a scumbag.
Jiang Baihe had explained the situation multiple times—she was just short of admitting she wasn’t the original person—but for some reason, the Omega refused to accept the fact that Jiang Baihe didn’t love her.
Seeing that she was about to reunite with Yan Shu and the issue still wasn’t resolved, Jiang Baihe became irritable. She didn’t want the scumbag Alpha’s unsightly past to ruin the fragile rapport she had finally built with Yan Shu. Jiang Baihe was someone who was devoted in love and couldn’t stand even a grain of sand in her relationship; she would never allow herself to become a fickle person like the original character.
As for the fact that she wasn’t the original soul, Jiang Baihe didn’t plan on keeping it from Yan Shu forever. One day she would clear the air, but not now. Transmigration sounded too bizarre; she worried that telling Yan Shu before they had a solid emotional foundation would make Yan Shu think she was suffering from a mental break.
Of course, Jiang Baihe had no idea that Yan Shu already viewed her as a patient with Dissociative Identity Disorder.
Looking at the girl who was on the verge of tears, Jiang Baihe rubbed her temples helplessly. “Can you just calm down? There is nothing between us anymore.”
But the girl shook her head and, before Jiang Baihe could react, lunged forward and crashed into her arms. “You said you loved me!”
Jiang Baihe: “…”
But sister, I really wasn’t the one who said that! Why don’t you transmigrate and go find the original scumbag yourself?
The banquet venue was not far off; laughter drifted over periodically. Jiang Baihe held her hands up in the air, not daring to touch the girl, her face a mask of silent desperation.
Suddenly, a clatter came from a nearby corner. Jiang Baihe instinctively looked back, but saw nothing out of the ordinary. Turning her attention back to the girl clinging to her chest, her expression finally went cold.
Originally, because they were both women and the other party was a fragile Omega, Jiang Baihe didn’t want to be too heartless. After all, the original Alpha really was the one in the wrong. But she had explained hundreds of times and offered a pile of apologies. In reality, the original Alpha had only been “verbally flirtatious” with this person; they hadn’t even held hands before the marriage agreement with Yan Shu was signed. Strictly speaking, Jiang Baihe didn’t owe her anything.
Out of empathy, she had still apologized sincerely tonight. Once or twice was fine, but repeated refusal to listen felt like harassment.
She slowly pushed the girl away and looked at her coldly. “You’ve crossed the line.”
“I-I’m sorry!” The Omega’s eyes were red, making her look pitiable.
Unfortunately, tonight she had met the heartless Jiang Baihe. Jiang Baihe glanced around, grabbed a tissue from a nearby table, and handed it over.
“I don’t know what your goal is…” Jiang Baihe said casually, but to her surprise, the Omega’s face stiffened for a split second. Though it was only a moment, Jiang Baihe’s years of acting experience allowed her to catch the detail.
Jiang Baihe: Wait! So this person actually DOES have another motive and purposely entangled me tonight??
The Omega didn’t realize she had slipped up. She looked piteously at Jiang Baihe and tried to grab her sleeve. “I don’t…”
Jiang Baihe nimbly dodged. Being hugged earlier was an accident; now that she was prepared, she wasn’t going to let it happen again. Realizing the other person’s motives weren’t pure, Jiang Baihe lost all patience for the “drama.”
Her expression turned fierce, cutting off the Omega’s explanation. She threatened darkly, “If you continue to bother me… don’t blame me for being unkind!”
With that, Jiang Baihe left immediately without a second look. Finding a nearby restroom, she meticulously cleaned herself, checking for any marks and using a scent-remover to get rid of any lingering odors.
Rubbing her wrists, she replayed the sequence of events. The more she thought about it, the more suspicious it became. Encountering the old “fair-weather friends” could be an accident, but this Omega showing up was starting to feel like someone was intentionally stirring the pot. If she hadn’t transmigrated, the original Alpha would likely be drinking with those friends and getting entangled with this Omega by now—leading straight into the original plot: cheating, creating a rift with Yan Shu, and finally dying a miserable death.
Jiang Baihe’s eyes glinted with a predatory light. It’s fine if the mastermind wants to calculate against me, but if they want to target Yan Shu…
Wait! Where is Yan Shu?!
Panic seized her. She sprinted out of the restroom, scanning the crowd while dialing Yan Shu’s number. She was filled with regret—she shouldn’t have left Yan Shu’s side for a single second tonight. If anything happened to her… she would never forgive herself!
The crowd was thick. After a few minutes of frantic searching, she finally spotted Yan Shu in a relatively quiet corner. Her heart was about to settle until she saw someone blocking Yan Shu’s path, appearing to be getting “handsy.”
The relief turned into a roar of rage. Fine! Do people take me for a fool just because I haven’t lost my temper? Between the friends, the ex, and this creep, there were enough people looking for trouble to start a mahjong game!
Since transmigrating, Jiang Baihe had never been this angry. Her Alpha pheromones even began to seep through the blockers due to her fury.
I have been carefully “feeding” and protecting my Little President Yan for so long that I don’t even dare to be handsy with her—who do you people think you are?!
Jiang Baihe threw her handbag directly at the person. The force was significant, causing the individual to stumble back. She strode forward, her face covered in frost.
“Who gave you permission to touch her?”
