After Mistakenly Marking a Sickly, Yandere Beautiful Omega, I Was Forced Into a Flash Marriage - Chapter 9
“Xue Wu, you can’t blame us. Blame the fact that you don’t have a powerful background. You aren’t like Chen Zitian, who is covered by our big boss. Besides, you don’t know how to be flexible. You’ve always stayed solitary and acted all high and mighty, never thinking about integrating into the entertainment circle. If you had just been a bit more obedient, a bit more docile, you wouldn’t have ended up like this. It’s your own fault for thinking you’re unique and acting like some chaste, virtuous woman.”
“Who doesn’t know how poor your foundations are?”
“…So that’s how it is. I understand now,” Xue Wu interrupted her, appearing as if she were on the verge of tears. Seeing this, Lin Ling, standing nearby, felt a pang of pity. However, she knew Xue Wu was only acting to draw out information, so she remained silent and continued to listen. “If I had followed your wishes, would I have gotten better roles?”
“Before, maybe. Now? Ha! Unless you let Ruan Zhao play with you until she’s bored!” Wang Huina said with a cruel sense of satisfaction.
Anyone who didn’t know better would truly think Xue Wu had committed some heinous crime against her.
The “pitiful and weak” expression on Xue Wu’s face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold sneer. “Is that so? Then I’ll see you in court.”
Without waiting for Wang Huina to react, she hung up the phone. Her decisive action left Lin Ling feeling incredibly vindicated.
“Ahhh! Wang Huina and those people are disgusting! We should be able to bring them down this time, right?” This wasn’t the first time they had been set up by Wang Huina, but back when they first debuted, their wings weren’t strong enough to offend someone like her.
Now, things were different. Although Xue Wu was still being used by the Xue family, her talent and fame had reached a level where she had the strength to challenge these people. Since Wang Huina and Chen Zitian were foolish enough to cross her, Xue Wu naturally wouldn’t let this opportunity slip by.
However, according to Xue Wu’s original plan, she had intended to gather enough evidence last night to call the police and send Ruan Zhao straight to prison. She hadn’t expected Luo Yan to suddenly burst in. While the girl had saved her in the nick of time from being trampled, her original plan had been disrupted. Now, she had to find other ways to deal with these vile people.
“It’s not that simple yet.” Xue Wu had started a recording the moment she picked up Wang Huina’s call. Their entire conversation was captured, but to truly topple Wang Huina and her ilk, this obviously wasn’t enough. She needed more evidence to uproot them completely.
Still, she didn’t want to talk about it anymore today, as she didn’t want it to ruin her mood.
After saving the recording, her hair and makeup were finished. The staff here were all trustworthy, so Xue Wu didn’t hide much. She checked herself in the mirror one last time and, seeing no issues, headed out to the filming location.
Lin Ling was just there to accompany her today. Seeing her friend in such a good state, she breathed a sigh of relief. She hated seeing her best friend affected by such disgusting matters.
What they didn’t know was that while Xue Wu was battling wits with Wang Huina on the phone, Luo Yan—who had been hesitating outside, wanting to find her—had overheard the entire conversation. It only served to reinforce her belief that the big villain was unfathomable. Must not provoke her!
The drama Xue Wu had accepted was a workplace series. She usually didn’t do much television, preferring film; she typically only filmed one TV drama a year. She chose this specific script because the female lead was also an Omega who was deeply interested in gemstone identification and jewelry design. Through her own hard work, she got into this university—nationally renowned for those two fields—and began a ten-year struggle.
Ultimately, she relied on her own strength to achieve great success, reaching the peak of the jewelry design industry and becoming a world-famous designer.
Although Xue Wu’s past life had been tragic, in this new life, she still preferred to convey positive messages. Plus, the script was genuinely well-written. In her past life, she had missed out on this script because of the Ruan Zhao incident, and it had been snatched by someone else. Now that she had successfully secured it, she intended to perform it well.
Today’s scene depicted the Omega lead’s life at university. It not only covered her diligent studying but also a plot point where she earned an opportunity to visit a newly discovered mineral deposit. Today’s shoot was crucial; it wasn’t just the beginning of the lead’s career, but the foundation for her future success.
Furthermore, this scene involved an encounter with the other lead, an Alpha, so everyone was looking forward to it.
“Teacher Xue, it’s been a long time. Please take it easy on me later.” The actor playing the Alpha lead was another popular star named Zhong Ting. A former child star, she was a year or two older than Xue Wu, but she specialized in the “girl next door” look, making her appear youthful and vibrant—no one would guess she was twenty-seven.
The look in her eyes when she watched Xue Wu made no secret of her adoration and admiration. She was one of Xue Wu’s many pursuers. However, Xue Wu truly didn’t feel any spark with her, so she was polite but not particularly enthusiastic, greeting her and leaving it at that.
Zhong Ting, however, couldn’t accept being treated so coldly. As if unable to control herself, she let a thread of pheromones twine around Xue Wu’s wrist, intending to seduce her.
Luo Yan happened to be passing by, holding a report on gemstone durability testing. She caught the scent of that domineering Alpha pheromone and saw Xue Wu’s frowning face—one full of disgust and “victimhood.” In the end… Luo Yan steeled her heart, clutched her report, and bolted.
She left Xue Wu standing there with her eyes wide in shock. It was completely unexpected.
