A No-CP Female Lead is Pregnant with the Uxorilocal Alpha’s Cub - Chapter 19.1

It was undeniable that the choice presented to Song Ranxue was a difficult and agonizing dilemma.

No matter whom she chose to save, she would inevitably fail the other.

But while she was still struggling internally, the scales had already tipped toward her family.

Putting aside how long she had been here or how the depth of her biological family ties compared to how long she had known Leng Xingxuan… surely Leng Xingxuan would have many people looking for her once she went missing.

But her sister… might only have her as an older sister.

No matter what, she could not abandon her own sister to save Leng Xingxuan first; it was an absolute impossibility.

And yet…

Song Ranxue gripped her phone, staring at the message sent in the name of the original host’s sister, Song Chuning… it seemed unbelievable, and she truly hadn’t expected her sister—usually so well-behaved and just a little mute girl—to be targeted by others.

In the book, they were clearly just background characters, and her sister didn’t even have a name… it was only after she transmigrated that she gradually learned about the original host’s life. She hadn’t expected her sister to be dragged into this mess to be used as leverage against her.

From the limited clues in the message, it was clear that her sister, Song Chuning, had definitely been snatched by He Yingxian’s group to be used to force her into submission.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she could remember her sister’s gentle and patient expression—how she always saved delicious food for her and worked so hard to take care of their sick mother. Whether it was her or the original host, they could always expect a warm glass of milk upon returning late at night; her sister was so warm and considerate… she was the family affection she had dreamed of in her past life as an orphan.

Now that her sister was in danger, as her biological older sister, she certainly had to save her immediately, almost without hesitation.

However… she actually hesitated for a split second before acting. In the call Leng Xingxuan had made to her, the sound of that slap to the face lingered in her mind and would not dissipate. This wasn’t supposed to be her plot, nor did it have anything to do with her. She had already made up her mind to stay away from the novel’s female lead, but… when she heard that slap, she felt her heart ache too, as if the tip of her heart were about to bleed from the pressure.

As for how many setbacks and plots Leng Xingxuan encountered in the book… no one knew better than her, a loyal reader. And the crisis Leng was currently facing should be unprecedented.

Because she remembered that in the book, after Leng Xingxuan went missing for a few days one night, she completely cut off all emotion and love. She showed no mercy to any enemies or competitors, even giving them harsher punishments, becoming an existence that terrified everyone in the book.

When she read the book back then, she couldn’t imagine what Leng had gone through; the author hadn’t gone into detail. But now that she had transmigrated into the book and become a member of it, even as a background character… she could glimpse what Leng Xingxuan would suffer during the next few days and nights of her disappearance—

In an ABO society, Alphas were always more powerful than Omegas. If Leng Xingxuan fell into a wolf’s den, it would certainly end tragically.

The thought of this made her feel even more empathetic and sad than when she was a reader, reaching the point of total heartbreak.

Song Ranxue didn’t know why Leng Xingxuan would call her for help. she felt extremely conflicted, as if countless tiny voices were arguing in her head, listing all sorts of reasons to convince her whether to save her sister first or the female lead first…

The noise made her head feel like it was exploding. Her pheromones were crashing around inside her body, yet she still couldn’t take that first step.

The battle raged in her mind; her fists were clenched tight. She was so miserable that tears flowed unconsciously. She gripped her phone so hard it was almost deformed. Everything happening around her became a void, leaving only her and those tiny emotional voices in a fierce struggle, yet she couldn’t reach a conclusion either way.

However, time waits for no one!

Save her sister! She had to save her sister! As for Leng Xingxuan… she didn’t believe no one would go to save her.

Even if she truly needed her, that would have to wait until after she rescued her sister!

Time waits for no one! If she continued to waste time like this, she wouldn’t be able to save either of them!

Song Ranxue! Hurry up and move! Move! Move!

Leave right now!

“Xiao Song, what’s wrong?”

Just as Song Ranxue was about to make her final decision, Duan Qianying’s voice suddenly rang in her ear. Song Ranxue looked up; her eyes had turned blood-red at some point, with veins spreading. This only made the bewitching tear mole beneath her eyelid seem more mysterious and deep, attainable yet out of reach.

However, Duan Qianying was startled by that gaze. She instinctively held her breath, not daring to speak, or even ask another word. She was pinned to the spot, unable to move.

The pressure unique to an Alpha hit her, making her hold her breath. She saw Song Ranxue’s eyes blink and thought she was about to move in the next second.

Something was wrong, very wrong. The pheromones on her were so thick they were about to overflow. It was terrifying and chilling.

“You…” Duan Qianying finally suppressed her intense fear to squeeze out a word to her. However, Song Ranxue seemed to have lost her soul and didn’t acknowledge her at all. She only looked up toward the door, as if making some difficult decision.

The Alpha’s entire face turned red from the strain. Her body was tense, and her eyes were filled with despair and pain. It was a shocking and heart-wrenching sight.

Finally, she took a step forward, like someone immersed in her own world.

Duan Qianying sensed that something major must have happened to Song Ranxue, but she wasn’t familiar with her yet and had no way to intervene.

As she was leaving, the special assistant who usually followed Leng Xingxuan also arrived. Her eyes were red. Although her expression still looked calm, Duan saw a flicker of anxiety in her face when she noticed Song Ranxue was there too.

With people coming and going, this wasn’t a good place to talk. This female Beta assistant was named He Wei. She was part of the first group of people to work for Leng Xingxuan and had always been loyal. Now that Leng Xingxuan was in trouble, she didn’t dare trust anyone, nor could she trust anyone, so she could only come to find Song Ranxue.

At least, for now, Song Ranxue had no secrets from them.

Moreover, Leng Xingxuan did not repulse her touch. She couldn’t imagine Leng Xingxuan having to endure the touch of others after being rescued, which would lead to nausea, disgust, and coldness. The only thing she could do was make things slightly better for her boss.

However, she wasn’t sure of Song Ranxue’s attitude. After all, in her eyes, Song Ranxue was a tough nut to crack who wouldn’t be moved by threats or persuasion. Not only that, but she was very capable. After all, she didn’t recall many people who could make Starlight Entertainment take the fall and apologize to her, terminate her contract peacefully, and flip her own image single-handedly.

Song Ranxue was indeed the only exception, so it wasn’t surprising that Leng Xingxuan thought highly of her and paid her more attention.

“Miss Song, could we have a word in private?” He Wei forced herself to calm down, knowing she couldn’t afford to lose her composure now. Thus, her tone became steady.

Song Ranxue naturally recognized He Wei. She looked at her with blood-red eyes and moved her lips as if to say something, but ultimately gave up.

Seeing the despair and struggle in her eyes, He Wei was also startled. She hadn’t expected Song Ranxue to turn like this in just a brief moment. Suddenly, as if remembering something and grabbing onto a life-saving straw, she said to her: “Miss Song, I know where we can find your sister.”

Song Ranxue stared at her instantly, her expression changing slightly: “Where?”

At this moment, she didn’t have time to ask how He Wei knew she had a sister or how she knew her sister was missing. She could only ask the most critical question, her face full of obvious tension and anticipation.

“I can go save your sister, but please, you go save our boss.” He Wei stated her request calmly. Although she was a Beta and couldn’t feel pheromones, she could sense the pressure coming from Song Ranxue; no one dared to get near her.

Even she felt her hair strands trembling silently. It was her instinctual fear driving her to leave.

But she couldn’t. Under these circumstances, she couldn’t abandon her boss and be a coward who feared for her own life.

She had to save her boss and tear to pieces those who wanted to insult her!

After finishing her sentence, He Wei looked at Song Ranxue, waiting for her answer.

“…You want me to go save your boss with you? Do you have no one else?” Song Ranxue finally sensed something was off and couldn’t help but ask, feeling slightly strange.

Even if she was worried about Leng Xingxuan, she couldn’t just rush into the enemy’s den without asking anything. She had to clarify certain things.

She had originally thought that since Leng Xingxuan had been captured, her subordinates were powerless to rescue her, which was why they asked for her help. But looking at the situation now, Leng Xingxuan’s subordinate had full knowledge of the situation, which proved she knew exactly where Leng Xingxuan was.

If that was the case, why didn’t she go save her directly instead of looking for her? She didn’t believe she was the only option.

She had calmed down slightly now. Although her heart was still burning with anxiety, some things had to be asked clearly; otherwise, she wouldn’t even know if she was being sold out.

“Because for this matter… we might truly need your help.” He Wei’s eyes were slightly anxious, but she still didn’t want to tell her the real reason.

“The reason?” Song Ranxue asked, the pressure radiating from her enough to crush a person.

“Miss Song, this is President Leng’s private matter; I cannot say. But… perhaps you will know once you see her.”

Hearing her ask this, He Wei’s eyes turned red. She knew Song would ask, but she had no right to tell her about Leng Xingxuan’s condition. Thus, she could only look at her silently, waiting for her decision.

Song Ranxue looked at her silently for a long time, as if scrutinizing her. Her heart was actually wavering. This decision was still very difficult—so difficult she didn’t dare question her own heart.

But in the end… she refused her. “Your boss has so many people to look for her when she’s in danger, but my sister likely only has me. I must save my sister first before taking care of your boss.”

“But… I can save your sister while you save my boss. I absolutely will not let anything happen to your sister.”

“No, I’m still not at ease. Just as your boss didn’t trust me and kept track of my family’s movements, I cannot trust your words.”

At this point, Song Ranxue didn’t want to waste more words and began walking out past her. He Wei grew panicked and followed her, continuing to try and persuade her: “If I have already rescued your sister before you reach the place where she’s being held, can you go save our boss immediately?”

“How certain are you?” Song Ranxue looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze, while a storm raged in her heart. What was Leng Xingxuan’s goal in watching her like this? Watching her wasn’t enough, she had to watch her family too?

“70 to 80 percent.” At this point, He Wei didn’t hide it and spoke directly.

“Let’s go, get in the car. I’ll trust you once.” Song Ranxue stopped hesitating and spoke to her, while also stating her condition: “But I must fully confirm my sister is safe before I go save your boss.”

“Yes, yes, that’s only natural! We will definitely rescue your sister safely! Please rest assured!”

He Wei was clearly very emotional, almost to the point of tears.
