After the Scumbag Alpha Tries to Save the Love-Struck and Flips Over (Quick Transmigration GL) - Chapter 12

“Perhaps it’s a mutual understanding?” Shen Su covered her mouth and chuckled softly, not giving the answer Lu Yan had expected.

Lu Yan let out a soft “Hmph”: “Then we really are fated.”

“Alright, I’ve been secretly following you for a long time. After all, know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without ever being in danger,” Shen Su smiled gracefully and gently tapped Lu Yan’s nose.

“No wonder I lost to you…” Lu Yan poked her own finger. “After all, I didn’t know you were a great chef. If I had known earlier, I would have learned to cook myself.”

Shen Su said encouragingly: “If you want to learn, I can teach you. I think your talent for learning is so good, you’ll surely pick it up quickly.”

“I think so too!” Lu Yan nodded.

“Two students, here’s your tomato grilled fish rice—”

The two carried their grilled fish rice and found a two-person table to sit down across from each other.

Lu Yan picked up a piece of steaming hot fish, gently blew on it, and carefully put it in her mouth.

The fish was tender, savory, and delicious. Dipped in the sauce, it carried a rich tomato flavor.

“You have such good taste,” Lu Yan mixed the sauce into her rice and swallowed a mouthful, saying contentedly, “Whether it’s the taste in choosing food or the taste in choosing a person, you are top-notch!”

Shen Su chuckled softly: “How did you manage to include yourself in the compliment?”

“What’s wrong? Can’t I?” Lu Yan pouted.

Shen Su nodded: “Of course you can. You are absolutely right!”

Lu Yan asked: “By the way, what are you planning to do after graduation?”

It was a good question, but Shen Su wasn’t very eager to tackle this difficult problem.

After all, she would enter the next world after completing her mission, and she had no intention of starting a career in this world.

So she answered casually: “Probably inherit the family business?”

Lu Yan wasn’t surprised by this answer. Most people from their background would make that choice.

“What’s wrong?” Shen Su noticed Lu Yan seemed distracted and asked curiously.

According to the information the System gave her, Lu Yan also inherited the family business after marrying the “Phoenix Man” Alpha, but the Alpha was the one managing the business.

“Before you said you wanted to marry me, I actually didn’t plan to inherit the family business.” Lu Yan lowered her head and poked the white rice. “But we are getting married, so I have no choice but to inherit the family business. I can’t let you bear the risk of a failed startup with me.”

Shen Su understood: “So, you originally planned to start your own business?”

“Yes, because Omegas can’t truly inherit or manage the family business, so I wanted to start my own business to show them that Omegas can also do well.” Lu Yan’s voice was soft; Shen Su had to lean in to hear it.

After saying this, Lu Yan cautiously observed the expression on Shen Su’s face. It was still that gentle smile.

Shen Su said warmly: “Of course Omegas can manage companies. My mother is an Omega, and she has her own business. I believe you can do very well.”

“Really?” Lu Yan curved her eyebrows, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Shen Su nodded: “Really.”

“Older sister, thank you.” Lu Yan’s eyes shifted slightly. “I didn’t expect you to believe in me so much.”

“Of course. You are my only rival for so many years,” Shen Su said.

Lu Yan smiled at Shen Su: “You are too.”

They finished their lunch before noon. Since classes didn’t start until 1:40 PM, they took a walk around the campus to aid digestion.

At 1:20 PM, Shen Su took Lu Yan to the corresponding classroom.

Standing at the doorway, Lu Yan tightly held Shen Su’s hand and pouted: “Are you just leaving like that?”

The hallway was getting increasingly crowded.

Shen Su quickly pressed a light kiss on Lu Yan’s cheek: “See you tonight.”

Only then did Lu Yan let go of Shen Su’s hand: “See you tonight.”

After watching Lu Yan enter the classroom and sit down, Shen Su slowly walked away from the increasingly crowded hallway.

She left the teaching building, took out her phone, looked at the address her parents had sent, and saw it was Jintian Plaza.

Shen Su slowly walked to the parking lot and sat in the car for a while. She didn’t start driving until her parents messaged her saying they had finished eating.

After driving to the underground parking lot of the mall, she confirmed the location again before taking the elevator to the third floor.

Mr. Shen and Ms. Wen had just picked up their milk tea.

She accompanied them to browse for a while, and then, following Ms. Wen’s suggestion, they purchased meeting gifts.

Lu Yan couldn’t concentrate on the class content at all, which had never happened before.

Her mind was full of Shen Su. She couldn’t help but wonder, What would Shen Su say to her parents?

It wasn’t until the class break that she picked up her phone and sent Shen Su a message: “How is your shopping going? What did your mom and dad say?”

Shen Su replied instantly: “My parents are really looking forward to the meeting. They’ve already bought a lot of gifts.”

Shen Su sent a picture—meeting gifts were stacked around her feet.

This feeling of being valued made Lu Yan feel secure, but at the same time, she was worried about her own parents.

There was still no news from them.

She hesitated for a moment and sent a message to her parents: “Is there anything we need to prepare for the first meeting?”

They hadn’t replied even after class ended.

Meanwhile, Shen Su sent her a message saying she would be going home for dinner and might be back a little late.

Lu Yan thought about it and decided to go home herself.

However, she made sure to eat dinner outside first, to avoid having to listen to their usual nagging at the dinner table.

Only when she reached the front gate did she remember that she had lost her access card.

“Miss, you’re back! The Master and Madam have been talking about you for a long time!” When Butler Wu saw that the person at the door was Lu Yan, he quickly opened the door to welcome her in.

Lu Yan slowly walked in, her eyes ambiguous: “Talking about me for a long time? About what?”

“Of course they miss you. You only come back once in a blue moon.” Butler Wu scratched his head, clearly confused.

Lu Yan didn’t say much. She walked into the incredibly familiar place and looked up at the luxurious villa. Suddenly, a scene flashed through her mind.

Her gaze sharpened. Instead of walking towards the side door of the villa, she headed towards the small garden.

Lu Yan walked to the swing and looked up at the third-floor balcony.

Just now, a scene flashed in her mind—her falling from that balcony.

Although she had considered such things before when she was under a lot of pressure, it had never been so clear. She even knew which balcony it was.

“What’s wrong, Miss? The Master and Madam are waiting for you inside.” Butler Wu asked, puzzled.

“Nothing.” Lu Yan suppressed the anxiety in her heart and walked into the villa.

As soon as Lu Yan walked through the door, she saw her parents sitting together on the sofa.

This was a very rare sight.

The Lu couple’s marriage was a business arrangement, and their relationship was poor, but they were both very strict with Lu Yan.

Before Lu Yan differentiated, they had always trained her according to the standards of the family business heir.

“You remembered to come back?” Lu Mother scanned Lu Yan indifferently. “Such a big matter, and you only came back to tell us now?”
