After I Became A Scumbag Alpha, the Female Lead Omega and I Both Fell Hard (Transmigration Into A Novel) - Chapter 3
It was no coincidence that the original Song Chenxi had befriended someone so appalling.
Song Chenxi was the second daughter of the Song Group’s family. She had a sister three years older than her, but while her sister was merely an unremarkable Beta, Song Chenxi differentiated into a top-tier Alpha at sixteen. She possessed unrivaled beauty, and her pheromones carried the deep, rare scent of guaiacwood, capable of making every Omega within a hundred-li radius grow weak in the knees and submit.
Thanks to her exceptional genes, she learned everything faster than others and succeeded at anything she attempted.
She was truly heaven’s favored daughter, blessed with both beauty and intelligence.
Because of this, her entire family doted on her excessively. From childhood onward, she received whatever she wanted and could virtually summon the wind and command the rain.
Even when she did something wrong, her parents could not bear to punish her. Instead, they punished the servants in front of her.
Over time, she began to find it entertaining.
Eventually, punishing other people became one of her peculiar fetishes.
Those in her social circle were eager to curry favor with her, so they constantly devised new forms of entertainment and showed her what a decadent life of pleasure stained with blood and tears truly looked like.
Song Chenxi ended the call, put away her phone, and shook her head with a bitter smile.
She was so grateful to have transmigrated into such an atrocious scumbag.
Knock, knock, knock—
Someone knocked on the hospital-room door.
A woman with short flaxen hair entered. The badge on her uniform read Chief Physician.
When she saw Song Chenxi, her footsteps faltered. Her attractive straight brows abruptly knitted together, and the eyes behind her glasses filled with anger and disgust.
“Song Chenxi, why are you here?” she asked.
Song Chenxi’s pupils widened slightly. She blinked her innocent eyes.
“Uh… I…”
“Forget it. I’m not remotely curious about why someone like you would appear here. Now, please leave.”
After speaking, the woman began flipping through the medical chart in her hands.
Song Chenxi pursed her lips.
“…”
What else could she possibly say?
“Ruan Tang, correct? How are you feeling now?”
“Are you experiencing discomfort anywhere?”
“Have you taken the medicine you were prescribed?”
The woman stopped looking at Song Chenxi and walked around her to approach Ruan Tang. Her voice immediately softened by several levels.
Ruan Tang ducked her neck and hunched her shoulders. She cautiously glanced at Song Chenxi and then at the doctor, but her lips trembled too badly for her to speak.
The sudden appearance of a stranger made her extremely uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Song Chenxi took a deep breath and walked over to the doctor.
“Excuse me, but you are…?”
The woman straightened and turned toward the window, refusing to look at her.
“Song Chenxi, important people truly do have short memories.” She clicked her tongue. “It’s me, Pei Fei.”
Oh!
Song Chenxi remembered now.
In the original novel, Pei Fei had been the original Song Chenxi’s high school classmate. She was a superior Alpha with excellent grades who had earned direct admission to Huaicheng Medical University. After graduating, she began working at the municipal hospital.
The two of them had once been genuine best friends who could talk to each other about anything. But after the original Song Chenxi differentiated and began revealing her twisted personality, they had fallen out.
For the following several years, they clashed like fire and water whenever they met.
Song Chenxi scratched her cheek, tilted her head, and smiled brightly.
“Old classmate! Long time no see.”
Dark lines covered Pei Fei’s face.
“…”
She spared Song Chenxi a glance.
In all these years, the two of them had never exchanged such a proper greeting.
It felt rather strange.
“Spare me the act. It’s disgusting.”
Pei Fei withdrew her gaze and turned toward the motionless Ruan Tang.
Why does she have to insult me? Song Chenxi thought aggrievedly.
Pei Fei took Ruan Tang’s temperature and examined her pupils and throat. Then she looked at the bag of medicine on the table, her expression turning grave.
“Why haven’t you taken your medicine?”
Ruan Tang remained silent.
“You aren’t in heat. You’re exhibiting symptoms of heat because the pheromones in your gland are in disarray, so you must take your medication on time.” Pei Fei paused briefly. “Stop taking the sleeping pills for now. They’ll interfere with the medication treating your pheromone disorder.”
“What?” Song Chenxi exclaimed in surprise.
Ruan Tang had suffered prolonged abuse at the original Song Chenxi’s hands, leaving her unable to sleep. She had secretly taken sedatives from the house. Combined with the original Song Chenxi forcibly attacking her with pheromones while she was not in heat, this had caused her to develop a severe pheromone disorder.
Pei Fei shot Song Chenxi a vicious glare before answering her disdainfully.
Song Chenxi clenched both hands tightly at her sides. The veins stood out beneath her skin, and her fingertips turned white.
The original Song Chenxi truly deserved to be cut into a thousand pieces.
The medication Pei Fei had mentioned sat in a white porcelain dish on the cabinet beside the hospital bed.
Song Chenxi walked over, opened the packet, and poured the yellow powder into a cup. She dissolved it in hot water, stirring constantly in an attempt to cool it more quickly.
Pei Fei glanced at her and froze slightly.
Just as Song Chenxi approached Ruan Tang and offered her the medicine, Pei Fei snatched the cup away.
Her voice was as cold as her gaze.
“Stop putting on an act. If it weren’t for you, this child would never have ended up like this. Leave her to me. You—get out of here. Right now!”
The cup shook violently, spilling scalding liquid over Song Chenxi’s fingers. Within moments, a large patch of skin had turned red.
“Oh,” Song Chenxi replied, enduring the pain.
Oh?
Pei Fei was rather surprised.
Song Chenxi’s behavior today was truly strange. She was actually so… mild-tempered.
In the past, this arrogant and overbearing second daughter of the Song family would already have unleashed a stream of vicious obscenities capable of making someone drop dead on the spot.
Song Chenxi did not even have time to wipe the liquid from her hand. She glanced at Ruan Tang.
“Then I’ll wait outside. I won’t go far, so call me if anything happens. I’ll come in immediately.”
Ruan Tang kept her head lowered, her eyes as still as a lake. She showed no reluctance at Song Chenxi’s departure. On the contrary, she visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon reaching the door, Song Chenxi looked back at Pei Fei and said to her retreating figure, “I’ll leave her in your care, Dr. Pei.”
Pei Fei’s heart gave a sudden thump.
She had not met Song Chenxi for the first time today, yet something about her seemed… different.
Song Chenxi sat on the bench outside the room. A nurses’ station stood nearby, and two young female nurses could not resist sneaking glances at her.
They spoke quietly, but Song Chenxi’s exceptionally sharp hearing allowed her to catch every word.
“That Alpha is gorgeous. She’s exactly my type.”
“You’d better stop right there. Don’t you recognize her? That’s Song Chenxi, the infamous, perverted scumbag Alpha.”
“Really? She doesn’t look like one.”
“You can’t judge people by their appearance. The Omega Dr. Pei just went to examine is her partner. She’s been beaten and abused for years, tortured until she barely even looks human anymore! At this rate, she’s going to die sooner or later!”
“Oh my God. What absolute human garbage! What a waste of such a beautiful face. Why doesn’t she just die?”
…
Song Chenxi’s temples throbbed.
She leaned her head back and stared at the deathly white lights on the ceiling, remembering her life before her sudden death.
She had been born in a small southern city. Her family valued sons over daughters, showering her younger brother with affection while summing up their opinion of her in a single phrase:
“A damned girl who’s nothing but another mouth to feed.”
Even Little Yellow, the mutt who had been the only one to wag its tail and show happiness whenever it saw her, had been beaten to death by her father for stealing food.
Her family had even demanded that she send money home every month so they could save enough for her younger brother’s bride price.
Her father wanted to marry her off to some local nouveau riche man. Left with no other choice, she told her family about her sexual orientation.
Her father flew into a rage and slapped her hard across the face twice. He shouted that he was disowning this disgraceful daughter and told her to go die if she had the nerve.
Even while declaring that “a woman’s lack of talent is a virtue,” they continued forcing her to work hard and send money home.
How ridiculous.
She had worked herself to the bone neither for her father nor for her younger brother.
She had only wanted to earn more money and escape that hell as soon as possible.
After finally achieving financial independence, she took the initiative to cut ties with her family. Yet she had worked herself so far beyond her limits that she ended up here, transformed into a perverted scumbag Alpha despised by everyone.
Being misunderstood and cursed was… only natural.
After all, the original Song Chenxi truly had been a monster.
Song Chenxi picked at her fingernails and sighed gloomily.
But she was now the owner of this body. Since heaven had given her a chance to begin again, she would live up to that opportunity and make certain she survived.
After an unknown amount of time, the hospital-room door opened.
Song Chenxi jolted upright and hurried over, cautiously peeking her head inside.
Pei Fei approached with the medical chart in her hands, maintaining an arm’s length between them in obvious disgust.
As she passed Song Chenxi, she said coldly, “Song Chenxi, if you have even the slightest shred of conscience left, you should let her go.”
