A Snake Transmigrated as a Scum A - Chapter 36
Li Yingxue’s gaze was like a sharp blade, staring at her, and her expression turned cold.
“……”
Fu Man woke up as if from a dream, coming to her senses amidst the car full of iris pheromones.
She must have just been bewitched to say such nonsense.
“I just… wasn’t very clear-headed.”
“Let go.”
Fu Man reluctantly let go, and upon seeing Li Yingxue in front of her… her eyelashes drooped slightly like a small fan, looking at her own arm, and then she unhesitatingly injected an inhibitor.
Pulling it out again, a new, not very attractive needle mark was added to the original seven or eight.
Fu Man, with a serious expression, leaned against the back of the seat and looked towards the front, hearing the sound of Li Yingxue throwing the inhibitor syringe into the trash can.
After Li Yingxue finished her own matters, she finally looked at the snake ring on her hand, unable to resist touching it, her mind swirling with countless thoughts.
This world actually has things like this…
Does this mean that she will no longer be subjected to Alpha’s teasing and malice in the future?
But such a good thing… was actually given to me by the woman who once humiliated me crazily.
Li Yingxue’s mood was somewhat complicated as she raised her eyes to look at the side profile of Fu Man sitting beside her. At this moment, she couldn’t see a trace of her past life in her.
Where did that vengeful, sadistic Fu Man go?
She couldn’t understand, but deep down, she didn’t want to owe her anything.
“Where did you get this snake ring?”
“…it’s been passed down through generations.”
These sentence blocked Li Yingxue’s thought of compensating from elsewhere.
In the end, she could only say two word: “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Fu Man turned to look at her, worried that she might hold a grudge in the future, and her expression became serious: “This snake ring has another function.”
Li Yingxue was surprised: “What is it?”
Fu Man: “It will copy some of your memories and then store them up there.”
Li Yingxue looked over with an expression as if she were hearing a fairy tale.
Fu Man: “It’s fine, you don’t need to use this feature, so you can ignore it.”
Li Yingxue didn’t know whether to believe it or not. Perhaps just to humor her absurd claim, she casually asked, “How would it be copied?”
Fu Man: “When you recall, it will replicate.”
She thought for a moment and added, “Usually, it’s only unhappy memories that get copied.”
“You can consider it as… an unhappy copy machine.”
Perhaps the “unhappy copy machine” was a bit humorous, and Li Yingxue covered her mouth and let out a snicker.
Fu Man quietly watched her smile, and it was rare for her to smile back.
“It’s getting late, let’s go back.”
“Okay.”
Li Yingxue pushed the door open and got out, sat in the driver’s seat, inserted the key, started the engine, placed her hands on the steering wheel, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the silver snake ring quietly resting on her index finger.
Thinking about its two functions, Li Yingxue lifted her eyelids and looked at the rearview mirror inside the car.
The woman sitting directly behind her had her long legs crossed, arms folded across her chest, and her gaze faintly fixed on the window.
When this woman is silent, she exudes a serene, sacred, and transcendent aura.
Even… there was a quality about her that made her seem like she didn’t belong to this world.
Li Yingxue thought about what had just been said, and upon introspection, she realized she didn’t actually feel disgusted. It was just that years of habit had conditioned her self-defense mechanism to react in the most appropriate way at that moment—promptly rejecting any illicit intentions directed at her.
“Li Yingxue, I’ll get my driver’s license in a while.”
Fu Man sighed.
Li Yingxue drove through the streets lit by the evening lights, making a sound of acknowledgment.
Taixi Golden Bay affluent area.
“You said she lost?”
Min Tian, upon hearing the news, frowned tightly and said, “Forget it, you can go.”
Galt, step back.
Min Tian turned and walked into the bedroom, smelling the mandrake flower pheromones filling the room. Suppressing her displeasure, she thought, this woman is in her sensitive period again.
Min Tian took a tube of inhibitor out of the drawer and threw it in front of her.
“Hit this.”
Xu Anji narrowed her eyes upon seeing her attitude.
“What do you mean?”
Min Tian looked down at her from above and said coldly, “It’s nothing much. This can suppress the susceptible period.”
“Is this how you treat your master?” Xu Anji sneered.
Min Tian mocked, “If you want to be my master, you have to be a top-tier Alpha. And you, who can’t even win a simple car crash competition, what kind of top-tier Alpha are you?”
“I’m still feeding you well and taking care of you, so go ahead and laugh behind my back.”
Having said that, Min Tian was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, a force slammed her against the wall, and she fell heavily.
Min Tian spat out a mouthful of blood, “You—”
As soon as she uttered a sound, someone stepped on her chest.
Xu Anji i glared at her with eyes full of hostility: “Whether I win or lose against Fu Man is none of your business, human.”
“I know you, Min Tian, are a proud and noble Alpha, but in this world, all Alphas are nothing to me. When you can beat me, then you can give me a hard time. If you can’t, then just obediently be my slave and follow my lead.”
“Did you understand?” Xu Anji ground her foot down hard.
Min Tian spat out more blood from the corner of her mouth, “……I… I understand.”
Xu Anji i tugged at the corner of her mouth and said, “Didn’t hear you, speak louder.”
Min Tian tightly clenched her fist, trembling, and said, “Understood!”
“From now on, speak to me with more respect.”
Min Tian tightly clenched her fist, trembling: “Got it!”
If looks could kill, the woman in front of her would have died countless times by now. Min Tian glared at her resentfully, responding reluctantly, “Yes.”
Xu Anji saw that she had finally submitted and behaved, so she released her foot. Watching Min Tian struggle to sit up, trembling and in a sorry state, with fresh blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, Xu Anji half-squatted, glanced at her body, and slowly moved her gaze upward, landing on Min Tian’s stubborn, resentful, yet unyielding face.
The next moment, she reached out and pinched her face, admiring her struggle yet unwillingness to fight back, and Xu Anji smiled.
Min Tian looked at her snake tail in horror, and after a moment, her gaze blankly turned to the ceiling.
“What does being a top Alpha even mean? I am a python, a height you humans can never reach in your lifetime.”
“This world will sooner or later belong to me, Xu Anji.”
“How’s the investigation I asked you to do going?” Xu Anji tapped Min Tian with her snake tail.
Min Tian was getting dressed when she heard the question. She suppressed her irritation, was about to speak, but had to level her tone: “Fu Man has a fiancee named Li Yingxue.”
“Fiancee?” Xu Anji raised an eyebrow in surprise, “She actually have a fiancee.”
It’s hers now.
“Kidnap her and bring her here.”
“……”
Min Tian frowned slightly and politely declined, “M City is orderly. I’ve already joined the Empress’s team. I can’t do such things.”
“Empress?” Xu Anji asked in confusion.
Min Tian took out the remote control, turned on the TV, and directed her gaze to the screen where the nearly 70-year-old empress wearing a crown at the M City banquet was. “Our highest leader of M City, possessing half of the decision-making power.”
The remaining half is in the parliament.
And her father… is one of the members of parliament.
Min Tian thought of this and hid her thoughts.
“Old woman.” Xu Anji rested her elbow on the back of the sofa, not particularly concerned, “Why can’t you kidnap just because you joined the team?”
“I can’t leave them with any leverage.” Min Tian replied, thinking for a moment, “But she is someone I know, so I can try to see if I can get in touch with her.”
“I didn’t expect you to know her,” Xu Anji glanced at her, “What is she to you?”
“Ex-girlfriend.”
Fu Man finished a day’s training in the hot spring palace and had just come up when she saw A Ci hiding under a tree outside the villa gate. She turned around and walked towards her.
“A Ci, what are you sneaking around for?”
A Ci was startled and gestured for Fu Man to look at the big gate outside. “Miss Li is talking to a woman.”
“Oh?”
Fu Man squinted her eyes and followed her gaze.
A Ci said again, “That woman is someone Miss Li knows. I recognize her; her name is Min Tian.”
Fu Man: “How did you know?”
A Ci told her about what she saw at the driving training range that day, “Miss Li and Min Tian seem to have a close relationship. She even said that if there are any difficulties, we can ask her for help. Oh, and I also picked up her business card.”
“Such a big deal, why didn’t you tell me?” Fu Man asked her to hand over the business card.
A Ci handed it to her: “Your Highness, why are you taking someone else’s business card?”
“Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.”
“……?”
The other side.
Li Yingxue looked at the woman in front of her with no trace of a good expression: “Min Tian, I think I made myself very clear back then, it’s over.”
Min Tian: “We can still be friends after breaking up.”
Li Yingxue looked as if she had seen a joke: “I won’t be friends with a cold-blooded person.”
“Still not forgotten about that matter?” Min Tian’s expression darkened, “What does that matter have to do with us?”
Back then, when they were dating, they once witnessed an act of murder together.
An Alpha killed an Omega piece by piece with a knife.
At that time, they were standing at the top of the alley, overlooking this massacre.
——Yingxue, don’t make a sound, he’ll find us.
At that time, she was just leaning on the edge of the rooftop wall with her hands, getting a bit lost in thought.
That Omega always knew someone was watching her from the top floor before she died.
And afterwards, Li Yingxue actually said she was cold-blooded and broke up with me without hesitation.
Min Tian saw her face turn pale and retorted, “At that time, besides watching her, what else could I do? You tell me?”
Li Yingxue took a deep breath and said, “Just go. Let’s never see each other again in this lifetime.”
They are not even the same kind of people; Min Tian’s calm and playful stare at that Omega back then sent chills down her spine.
Li Yingxue turned around and went back.
Min Tian stared deeply at her back, then looked up at the villa in front of her, turned around, and drove away.
Evening.
After Li Yingxue finished washing up, she lay down on the bed. Not knowing what she was thinking, she suddenly raised her hand and examined the snake ring.
This little thing has brought her quite a bit of peace.
Back then, Min Tian actively pursued her, and she indeed had a good impression of her at that time, so she agreed to be together after a while.
But as they got along, she always felt a sense of coldness from Min Tian; she didn’t care about many things. Her goals were deeply hidden, to the point where she always felt like she was being used.
But she couldn’t say where she was being used, because Min Tian was indeed quite good to her.
Until that incident happened, Min Tian’s behavior made her feel scared, so she chose to break up and distance herself from such a person.
Although they hadn’t differentiated at the time, that Omega could be any one of them. Wouldn’t she be scared?
Thinking of this, Li Yingxue pushed the matter aside and stopped thinking about it.
Looking at the snake ring again, she lost herself in thought and inexplicably thought of giving this snake ring to the woman she love.
Just then, the bedroom door was knocked on.
Li Yingxue hurriedly put down her hands and said, “Come in.”
The visitor was Fu Man; she seemed to have already washed up and walked around to the other side of the bed to lie down.
Li Yingxue saw that she had nothing to say to her, so she casually turned off the light and prepared to sleep.
The room darkened.
Li Yingxue turned slightly, facing away from her.
Suddenly, a voice rang out in the darkness: “Is someone looking for you today?”
Li Yingxue thought for a moment before realizing she was talking about Min Tian, “Yes.”
“What does that person want with you?”
“She wants to ask me out to hang out.”
“Is she someone you know?”
“Mm.”
“So you agreed?”
“Why are you asking this?”
The air was quiet for a while.
“Tomorrow, Lord Fu is coming to see us. You probably won’t be able to go out.”
“Then I won’t go out tomorrow.”
Getting the answer she wanted, Fu Man still wasn’t very happy.
But she doesn’t know where the unhappiness is coming from.
Fu Man couldn’t fall asleep after lying down for a while, so she simply got up, left the bedroom, and went to the underground palace to work overtime on her training.
The great undertaking of cultivation must not be delayed because of women.
Li Yingxue looked at the empty room, then glanced at the door that had just been closed, feeling somewhat complicated.
In the underground palace, Fu Man practiced one spell after another, greatly improving her skills.
During the break, that business card flashed through her mind.
She take the phone and the business card, and enter the phone number from it.
Three in the morning.
Min Tian received a call and answered it: “Hello?”
“Min Tian, right?”
On the other end of the phone came a cool and composed older sister’s voice. Min Tian thought the caller had dialed the wrong number, so she looked at the screen—an unfamiliar phone number.
“It’s me, what’s up?”
“Li Yingxue has been kidnapped by me. If you want to ransom her, send over 100 million.”
“……?”
“If you don’t come over, I’m going to kill her.”
Min Tian frowned and said, “You dialed the wrong number. You should call her fiancee, Fu Man.”
Fu Man crossed her legs and, upon hearing this, the corners of her mouth lifted. “But she said that if she had any difficulties, you would help her. This small amount of money, Miss Min, you can afford it, right?”
What responded to her was the busy signal of the call being hung up.
It seems they rejected “Li Yingxue’s plea for help.”
She can’t even afford 100 million, so how can she talk about her definitely helping when she’s in trouble?
So funny.
Fu Man put down her phone and slowly tore the business card piece by piece.
