Accidentally Picked Up a Rich and Amnesiac Alpha (GL) - Chapter 2

The smell of disinfectant was gone, replaced by a room filled with warm sunlight. The wind blew in from a half-open window, and a corner of a white curtain danced softly, gently brushing her face.

The room was spacious and decorated in a simple, minimalist style, with a very tidy arrangement. Also, the mattress was much more comfortable than the one in the hospital.

A-Yan propped herself up and picked up a bottle of mineral water from the bedside table. She unscrewed the cap and took several gulps. The sweet water soothed her dry throat, and she finally felt much better.

She got out of bed, a little too quickly, and her head felt dizzy. She instinctively reached up to touch her head and realized it was wrapped in bandages.

In a flash, a series of images flickered in her mind: walking unsteadily toward a villa complex by the bay under the glow of streetlights, a sudden commotion from the greenery beside her, and before she could react, a heavy blow to her head, followed by a second, a third, then punches and kicks…

Where was that villa complex? Who hit me? What was I doing there?

Also, the person in the memory looked a mess. What had happened to me to be like that?

A-Yan only thought for a moment before her head began to throb, feeling like it was being drilled into. The pain was so intense she couldn’t think. She clutched her head, her face pale, and sat on the edge of the bed for a long time until her breathing steadied and the pain subsided.

Under the bed was a new pair of slippers. Instead of the usual bunnies, cats, dogs, or bears, there was a cake pattern with strawberries on top.

Seeing this, A-Yan’s stomach growled; she felt a bit hungry. She slipped into the slippers and walked to the door, intending to go out and find something to eat.

She opened the door a crack and faintly heard someone talking on the phone.

“Her looks are undeniable. She’s beautiful, but so frail. Get this: Sister Song kissed her, and she fainted! That’s Song Tingxue! How many people dream of that, and it’s something they’ll never get… Yes, yes, Sister Song kissed her first… I thought it was weird, too. I was completely dumbfounded… Can you believe it? That pretty-but-useless Alpha fainted from a kiss! Isn’t she useless? … Sister Song was pretty embarrassed, hahaha… Okay, Sister Luo, I can’t say anymore. Isn’t this huge news? I have to go back and check if that beautiful Alpha is awake. Gotta go.”

Xiaole turned around and came face to face with the “pretty-but-useless” woman standing in the doorway, unsure whether to step out or not.

“Oh, you’re awake?! When did you wake up?”

A-Yan, who had just earned the title of “pretty-but-useless,” gave her a polite smile. “I just woke up and happened to hear you on the phone with your friend, Miss Le.”

Xiaole’s toes curled in embarrassment.

Thankfully, the other person quickly changed the subject. “Excuse me, Miss Le, where are we? Also, if it’s not too much trouble, could you get me something to eat?”

“Sure, sure. We can order takeout. What do you want to eat?”

Half an hour later, Xiaole was going crazy.

What do you mean, “pretty-but-useless”?! She’s a useless ancestor! And a super particular one at that!

She wouldn’t eat fried chicken, spicy chicken feet, hot and sour vermicelli, spicy stir-fry, or even pizza… All of Xiaole’s favorite and most-ordered takeout meals were rejected.

Finally, the pretty-but-useless woman asked, “Can I use the kitchen?” With her head still wrapped in bandages, she went to cook for herself.

Xiaole stood at the kitchen entrance with her arms crossed, a resentful look on her face, watching her rummage through cabinets and the fridge. She seemed a little disappointed by the lack of ingredients, but a slight curve to her lips. She finally pulled out a pack of steak and two eggs, and began to defrost them.

Xiaole was surprised to find that this beautiful “useless” woman was quite skilled in the kitchen. Her cooking was excellent. The fried eggs were a beautiful golden yellow, and the steak was cooked to perfection. You could tell it was delicious without even cutting into it.

Xiaole swallowed, I want to eat that! But she had just been annoyed and lectured the “useless” woman when they were trying to order takeout, so she definitely wouldn’t share.

Suddenly, the pretty-but-useless woman asked, “Can I ask who Sister Song is to you?”

“She’s my boss.”

The pretty-but-useless woman turned around and smiled. “I see. I remember Sister Song said I’m her girlfriend. If you round it up, I’m the boss’s wife. So…”

Xiaole: “…” Well, this “useless” woman isn’t so useless after all. Not only is she super particular, but she also knows how to play her cards, already putting on the airs of the boss’s wife.

“Here you go, Sister Xiaole, please enjoy. I’m new here, and I hope you’ll show me the ropes from now on.” A-Yan placed the perfectly cooked steak with the golden fried egg in front of Xiaole.

Xiaole’s face broke into a big smile. “Thank you! Miss Yan, your cooking is amazing! You don’t have to call me Sister Xiaole, just Xiaole is fine.”

“My last name is Yan?”

Xiaole, eating the steak, remembered the moment Sister Song had instructed her at the hospital the night before: “Her last name is Yan, her name is Yan Qingqi. I knew her a long time ago…” “Sister Song, is she really your girlfriend?” “Yes, but she won’t be for long. We’re getting married soon.” The thousands of exclamation points over Xiaole’s head all disappeared under Song Tingxue’s cold, icy gaze. Having followed Sister Song for a few years, she knew some things weren’t her business to ask about. Xiaole nodded. “Yes, Sister Song, I understand.”

“What’s my full name, then?”

“Yan Qingqi.”

“But at the hospital, when I first woke up, you didn’t seem to know me and asked for my name.”

Xiaole looked at her. This “useless” woman really isn’t stupid.

Good thing Sister Song had already prepared me.

“That’s because you and Sister Song had a secret relationship. Sister Song has always been very private about it, so I didn’t know. I only found out about your relationship when you had that accident yesterday.”

Xiaole felt a little thrill and excitement. So Sister Song had a girlfriend! And such a beautiful one! They met again after being apart. No wonder Sister Song just hugged her tightly yesterday! It’s like a real-life second chance at love, a broken mirror made whole again! From the looks of it, Sister Song is going straight for marriage to secure her!

What do I do? What do I do? I love this kind of aggressive Omega-chasing-Alpha romance. It’s so addictive!

“Why did we have a secret relationship? Was our relationship something to hide?” Yan Qingqi paused. “Was one of us a mistress?”

Xiaole almost choked on her egg. “Miss Yan, you have a wild imagination. Your secret relationship is because of Sister Song! She’s Song Tingxue!”

Xiaole waited for the pretty-but-useless woman to gasp in surprise and show fan-like joy. However, after a few seconds, the woman just stared at her blankly, then blinked, motioning for her to continue.

Xiaole inwardly let out a big sigh of frustration. “Song Tingxue is a Grand Slam Movie Queen.” At this, Xiaole proudly lifted her chin. “She’s a top-tier celebrity with countless fans. So many people adore Movie Queen Song!”

“So my girlfriend is a big star?” Yan Qingqi finally showed the surprised expression Xiaole had been waiting for.

“Uh-huh, an absolutely huge star!”

“Why don’t I remember any of it? I have no recollection at all.” Yan Qingqi looked thoughtful, then asked, “How did I end up in the hospital?”

“Who knows?” Xiaole said, eating, while busy filling in the blanks for herself. Having a secret relationship with a big star means no public exposure. They absolutely can’t reveal their true relationship. Plus, with all the filming, they’d be apart a lot. Over time, many celebrities’ secret lovers can’t handle it and end up breaking up.

“Maybe you and Sister Song had a fight back then and broke up in a fit of pique. Then, yesterday, you probably ran into some trouble, got into a fight with someone, and they hit you. There were no surveillance cameras in that area, so the attackers definitely ran away. Anyway, when we passed by, you were lying in a pool of blood, so we took you to the hospital. And now, you and Sister Song have met again, a beautiful reunion.”

Yan Qingqi lowered her head and thought for a moment. “I guess the head injury affected some part of my brain’s function, which is why I have temporary memory loss, right?”

Xiaole was confused by her words. “I… I guess so.”

Yan Qingqi gave a small smile. Even with her head bandaged, her exposed eyes, nose, and face shape, especially her proud demeanor, were impeccable. A truly top-quality Alpha!

If an Alpha with this kind of noble, aristocratic vibe, like something out of a manga, were to enter the entertainment industry, people of all genders and ages would flock to her, leaving nothing but crumbs.

It makes perfect sense that Sister Song hid their relationship before, keeping her “pretty Alpha” a secret, and now wants to get married and lock her down as soon as possible!

“Xiaole, am I really Sister Song’s girlfriend? Then why did I faint when she kissed me? If we’re a couple, shouldn’t kissing be perfectly normal?”

This… This is something Sister Song didn’t brief me on!

Cold sweat broke out on Xiaole’s forehead. This “useless” woman asks about everything. Her brain is so sharp even with a head injury. It’s a good thing her memory is messed up right now, or I’d be no match for her.

I can’t say she’s allergic to kissing.

“Haha, well, Sister Song was the one who kissed you. Usually, you’re the one who kisses Sister Song. With the injury on your head, you just got too excited and… fainted.” Xiaole struggled to come up with an excuse, her head almost buried in her plate.

Yan Qingqi nodded, accepting the explanation.

So the goddess sister likes to be kissed, she thought to herself.
