After Becoming a Scumbag Alpha, the Green Tea Omega is Reborn - Chapter 1

Her body felt searingly hot, and her consciousness was a blur. The air was thick with a faint scent of blood mixed with white musk, stinging Yu Li’s nose.

She opened her eyes bleary-eyed, only to see a woman curled up in the corner of the room, her body covered in welts from being whipped. The woman was trembling and sobbing, repeatedly murmuring, “No… please don’t touch me… I beg you…”

Yu Li looked down in panic at the leather belt gripped tightly in her hand. Had she just personally beaten this girl into this state?

Yu Li leaned against the wall, her feet sinking into the soft down carpet. On the mahogany table next to her lay two small red booklets. She opened one and realized, to her shock, that it was her own marriage certificate. Simultaneously, a flood of memories that didn’t belong to her rushed into her mind.

She… had transmigrated into a book. Specifically, she was now the “cannon fodder” scumbag Alpha in a Yuri ABO novel. The original owner of this body had used her family’s wealth and power to get pushed into the spotlight as a top star, eventually using sweet talk to trick the rising starlet, Tao Ran, into marriage.

Tao Ran was shy and introverted. On their wedding night, she had refused the scumbag Alpha’s marking. In a fit of rage, the Alpha had whipped her severely with a belt, forcibly marked her against her will, and thrown her only remaining bottle of suppressants into the flowerbed downstairs.

Yu Li dropped the belt in disbelief. She looked at Tao Ran’s smooth, jade-like legs, feeling an unbearable heat rising in her chest. She couldn’t help but slowly walk toward Tao Ran; the scent of white musk pheromones drifting from the girl was the scent the scumbag Alpha was most obsessed with.

Tao Ran bit her cherry-pink lower lip, her eyes filled with tears. She looked lost and helpless, trembling like a pear blossom in the rain. A single tear fell into the hollow of her collarbone.

With such a natural beauty before her, how could anyone not want to possess her?

Fragments of the scumbag Alpha’s past thoughts surfaced in Yu Li’s mind:

“I’m tired of the wild ones lately; I want to taste a pure little flower like Tao Ran.”

“Marrying someone like her is fine—she’s obedient and submissive, which makes it easier for me to find other Omegas later.”

“Born looking like that, she was meant to be marked.”

Yes, mark her. Right now. Right here.

A powerful desire seized Yu Li’s mind. She couldn’t stop herself from lunging forward and pinning Tao Ran’s hands down.

“No!” Tao Ran let out a grief-stricken scream.

Yu Li had already opened her mouth to gently bite the gland when she suddenly snapped to her senses. She released Tao Ran and slapped herself hard across the face. Tao Ran, meanwhile, fainted from exhaustion.

You beast, Yu Li thought, the person is already injured like this, how can you still think of possessing her?

But Tao Ran’s heat had arrived. If she couldn’t be marked, then the only option was… right, the suppressants!

Yu Li gently laid Tao Ran down, turned on her phone flashlight, and ran downstairs to the flowerbeds, crouching to search inch by inch. She was as frantic as an ant on a hot griddle, her forehead dripping with sweat and her back soaked. Finally, she found the mud-covered suppressants under a magnolia tree and stumbled back to the room clutching them.

The suppressant was oral. Yu Li carefully cradled Tao Ran’s head and brought the medicine to her lips, but since Tao Ran was unconscious, she spat out most of what she drank.

In desperation, Yu Li took a mouthful of the medicine herself, pressed her lips against Tao Ran’s, and slowly pried her teeth open to feed her the suppressant.

Though the girl remained in a deep sleep, the burning heat of her body gradually faded. The medicine was working. Yu Li let out a long sigh of relief and gently tucked her into bed.

Should I take her to the hospital? But they were both actors. If they made such a scene at a hospital, they’d be on the front page of every tabloid tomorrow.

Is there a manager or someone who can help?

Just as Yu Li was about to check her contacts, a call came in labeled “Dr. Liang.”

She scrambled to answer. Dr. Liang began scolding her immediately.

“Miss Yu, although you explicitly refused earlier, I must remind you again: if Miss Tao suffers from pheromone disorder, you cannot just stand by. You must notify me to make a house call immediately, otherwise, her life could be in danger.”

“Can you come over now? Miss Tao is injured.”

“What caused the injury?”

“Whip wounds.”

Dr. Liang’s tone turned sharply cold. “At your house, right? I’ll be there immediately.”

Ten minutes later, Dr. Liang appeared at the door. Yu Li opened it and said, “Miss Tao is in my bedroom.”

As Yu Li prepared to lead the way, Dr. Liang walked toward the bedroom with practiced ease. She had clearly been here many times before and lived nearby; she was likely the family’s private doctor.

“Fortunately, the wounds aren’t deep. I’ve disinfected them. Give her the oral medicine twice a day, morning and night, and apply the topical cream three times a day. Go to the pharmacy tomorrow to buy these extra ointments to use together, got it?” Dr. Liang said, sending a list of medications to Yu Li’s phone.

Yu Li nodded. Dr. Liang let out a displeased sigh. “Since you are family now, talk things through. How could you resort to violence? A lady uses her words, not her fists.”

After Dr. Liang left, Yu Li sat in the living room with her phone, looking at messages from over a dozen people. The more she read, the more her head ached.

Nine out of ten people had no nicknames, and their profile pictures all had that “internet celebrity” style. Their messages were full of sycophantic flirting that Yu Li couldn’t bear to look at. Among the others, one asked if Tao Ran was “good in bed” and commented on her body; another asked if she wanted to find a “fresh Omega” to play with tomorrow; and another… labeled “Assistant 8,” sent a curse at her and then deleted her.

Yu Li rubbed her temples in exasperation. What great sin had she committed in her past life? Why did she wake up in an ABO world where she beats women and has a bunch of “fox friends” conspiring with her?

She sighed deeply and scrolled through her phone until she saw Tao Ran’s chat box. More memories of the original story surfaced.

In the original book, Yu Li was just a scumbag Alpha cannon fodder—a stumbling block on Tao Ran’s road to success. Tao Ran was the true protagonist. She was forcibly marked, kept like a prisoner, and forced to give up her dreams and leave the industry to have the Alpha’s children.

The scumbag Alpha was Tao Ran’s first love. Tao Ran was naturally kind and gentle; she had been pursued by the Alpha for a while and had developed feelings, even being willing to bear her children and become a homemaker. Who knew that after Tao Ran got pregnant, the Alpha would become even worse? She cheated multiple times, committed domestic violence, and even let her mistresses bully Tao Ran, forcing the pregnant woman to kneel outside the house.

The ending of the book was this: Tao Ran cut out her own gland to be reborn from the ashes, becoming a legendary Movie Queen. The scumbag Alpha’s atrocities were exposed; she was kicked out of the industry, framed by others, and her body was eventually dumped in the wilderness.

Yu Li propped her chin on her hand, sighing. A girl barely in her early twenties subjected to such abuse.

Regardless, Tao Ran was the victim. As long as she treated Tao Ran well, perhaps she could not only help the protagonist achieve her dream of becoming Movie Queen but also change her own ending.

Yu Li started searching for Tao Ran’s name online, reading through the results one by one.

In the dim bedroom, Tao Ran jolted awake from her stupor. As she sat up, she felt an all-encompassing pain. The red whip marks on her arms and thighs were a shocking sight.

What happened to me? Wasn’t I just attending the Movie Queen awards ceremony?

Tao Ran turned on the light and was stunned to find herself in her and Yu Li’s bedroom. But Yu Li had long since been forced into retirement; how was this possible?

She looked around and saw the two red booklets on the table. She opened them—it was her and Yu Li’s marriage certificate.

Had she traveled back in time? From her awards ceremony back to the day she married Yu Li—the day the nightmare began.

Tao Ran took a few deep breaths to calm the chill in her heart, then let out a soft huff and tossed the certificate aside.

Since she was back in the past, she would not repeat her mistakes. She had already seen through Yu Li’s coldness and cruelty; she would never be as soft and kind as in her previous life, fantasizing about Yu Li changing her ways while being repeatedly harmed.

This time, she would squeeze every bit of use out of Yu Li to help herself climb back to the top!

Tao Ran remembered something and checked herself in the bathroom mirror. The whip wounds weren’t too heavy, but there was a distinct bite mark on her gland. It seemed she had already been forcibly marked by Yu Li. She knew that in the previous life, it was this very marking that caused her to fall pregnant.

Three months from now, the other Omegas Yu Li kept would come to the door and kick her out of the house. She would be pregnant, kneeling in the rain begging for mercy, while Yu Li held her mistress and slammed the door shut.

She absolutely could not keep this child. She had to buy emergency contraception immediately. However, given Yu Li’s intense possessiveness and desire for control, she would likely keep Tao Ran locked inside. To get out of the house, she first had to find a way to please Yu Li.

The night was dark, but the lights were on in the villa’s living room. Yu Li sat under the lamp, scrolling through the news on her phone and letting out a long breath.

The news of the popular actress Tao Ran and top star Yu Li registering their marriage was at the very top of Weibo’s trending list. Entertainment media and netizens alike were jealous, saying Tao Ran must have been blessed for eight lifetimes to marry Yu Li.

The Yu family was a famous conglomerate family; marrying into it was seen as a lifetime of security. Yu Li herself was a top star who worked with famous directors and dominated variety shows and advertisements. But who knew that the original Yu Li was “gold and jade on the outside, but rotten on the inside”?

The original scumbag Alpha had money, power, and resources, but refused to give even a crumb to Tao Ran, preferring to throw heaps of cash and roles at the “trashy Omegas” she had one-night stands with.

Tao Ran had asked for a divorce many times, but the original Alpha always used a “slap followed by a sweet date” method to keep her, even resorting to imprisonment, eventually driving Tao Ran to jump from a building to escape.

Yu Li bit her lip. Suddenly, she heard a door open upstairs. Tao Ran had changed into a light green slip dress and was slowly walking down the stairs.

Her gaze was filled with determination and coldness.

“Are… are you okay?” Yu Li asked cautiously.

Tao Ran walked toward her expressionless, clutching the two marriage certificates.

Yu Li lowered her head in shame. Tao Ran must think she was being hypocritical, hurting her and then acting concerned.

Tao Ran… if she wants a divorce, I won’t refuse. Not only that, I’ll give her all my best resources and eighty percent of my assets.

I only hope that after the divorce, you live a better life than I do.

Tao Ran raised the certificates. Yu Li thought she was going to throw them in her face and reflexively closed her eyes, but instead, Tao Ran placed them gently on the table.

“Honey, we were in such a rush to get the certificates today that I didn’t look closely. You look so handsome in the photo,” Tao Ran said with a beaming smile, pointing at Yu Li’s picture.

“Huh?” She’s not mentioning a divorce? Yu Li looked over blankly.

The original Yu Li had the exact same face as her—heroic features, though the eyes were sharp. When she smiled, she had a cold, arrogant air that made people hesitant to get close. As for Tao Ran, she was exactly as her name suggested: when she smiled, she was as delicate and charming as a blooming peach blossom.

Setting everything else aside, the two of them together were a visual feast.

Tao Ran curled her lips into a smile. One doesn’t strike a smiling face, she thought. She believed that as long as she spoke sweetly and acted submissive, she could control Yu Li.

“Honey,” Tao Ran turned and sat on Yu Li’s lap, wrapping her arms around her neck. “I didn’t mean to refuse the marking just now. I was just a little shy. Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”

Terrified that Tao Ran might fall, Yu Li stiffened her back and held her gently. “I won’t be angry,” she said stiffly. “Don’t be afraid. From now on, I will definitely treat you well.”

Yu Li vowed to herself never to force her, never to mark her, and to protect her until she became Movie Queen.

But in her heart, Tao Ran sneered. What a classic scumbag line. She’s probably said it a thousand times without ever changing. Who would believe her?

“Then shall we…” Tao Ran smiled, her index finger tracing circles on Yu Li’s chest.

Yu Li swallowed hard, nearly drowning in her soul-stirring eyes.

Tao Ran leaned against her chest and whispered, “Let’s go back to the room and continue.”
