After Transmigrating as a Scum Alpha, a Cold Omega Stole My Heart - Chapter 2

Dim lighting, a body burning so hot it was unbearable, the room filled with the scent of pheromones, and nauseating panting.

The young girl struggled in the darkness, screaming as she tried to escape from the person who was panting, but her heat period had made her entire body weak. In the end, she was pounced on and pushed to the floor.

Her gland was pierced, and disgusting, mixed pheromones were injected into her. There was none of the comfort that should have been there. Instead, it was filled with pain.

Yet her resistance was useless. In the end, her gland was bitten until it was dripping with blood, and her entire body lay sprawled on the bed like a broken doll.

“No… Let go of me… Let me go…”

In the room next door, the young girl lying on the bed had her brows tightly furrowed. Her originally pink lips were now slightly pale. She kept sobbing softly, tears constantly seeping from the corners of her eyes. She looked so tragically beautiful that it made one’s heart ache.

After an unknown amount of time, the girl suddenly opened her eyes.

Tears blurred her vision. She squeezed her eyes shut and opened them again, preparing to face the cruel reality.

But…

That familiar ceiling…

Her body… didn’t hurt?

Forcing herself to support her still sore and weak body after her heat period, the girl lifted the blanket and looked over her intact body. Then she touched the back of her neck. The small bump representing her gland was still slightly red and swollen, but there were no signs of being marked.

This realization left the girl both shocked and confused.

“She actually didn’t mark me?”

Clearly… it wasn’t supposed to be like this.

Had something changed?

The girl could not help but recall what had happened while her consciousness had been hazy.

Xie Shuyun…

But the moment she thought of that name, disgust appeared on the girl’s face. She did not believe the other party had any good intentions.

During the four years she had been in the Xie family, Xie Shuyun had targeted her at every turn. Right now, she was probably planning some even bigger scheme.

The girl took a few deep breaths. Her dark pupils were like whirlpools, swallowing all those emotions. When she opened her eyes again, only calmness remained.

Supporting herself against the bed, the girl slowly walked to her desk and pulled open a drawer. From the corner, she took out a small booklet that had clearly been flipped through many times.

She had the habit of recording everything she had experienced.

Although she was unwilling to believe it, she still wrote down Xie Shuyun’s abnormal behavior today.

The pen fell.

She closed the booklet and placed it back into the drawer.

Just as the drawer was about to close, three characters could vaguely be seen on the booklet, written in bold, sweeping strokes:

Cheng Lingxue.

Sitting by the dining table, Xie Shuyun had already changed into a different set of clothes and was waiting there.

Even if the original body’s father was coming back, there was no need to dress too formally, so she had simply come downstairs in casual home clothes.

Looking at the steaming hot, high-class dishes on the table—dishes that would have made her eyes shine in amazement in the past—she now had no appetite at all.

She wondered whether that girl would come downstairs…

Thinking this, Xie Shuyun’s gaze kept drifting toward the staircase.

Not far away, in the kitchen, several pairs of eyes were secretly watching Xie Shuyun as she rested her chin on her hand and stared blankly at the dining table.

At this point, one really had to praise the original body’s looks.

Even with a melancholic expression, she did not look gloomy. Instead, because of those eyes, she seemed troubled by love, making people feel heartache with just one glance.

The owners of those eyes were several young maids. Their gazes toward Xie Shuyun were filled with admiration as they whispered among themselves.

“What’s wrong with Eldest Miss? Usually, she’s very happy whenever Master comes back.”

“It’s probably Miss Cheng making Miss angry again. Honestly, Miss is an SS-rank alpha. Isn’t she perfectly matched with an SS-rank omega like her?”

“Exactly. She’s just an adopted daughter. Miss taking a liking to her should already be enough, but who knows what she’s thinking…”

“What are you doing?”

The woman in the suit frowned at them and coldly scolded,

“Stop gossiping here. Go back to your positions.”

“Yes, yes!”

“We’re sorry!”

The commotion over there caught Xie Shuyun’s attention. She turned her head in confusion and saw the woman in the suit whom she had met in the corridor earlier.

She compared it inwardly.

If she really had transmigrated into a book, then this person should be the Xie family’s housekeeper, a very capable female beta.

In the ABO world, aside from male and female biological sexes, there were also three secondary genders: alpha, beta, and omega. The latter secondary gender would differentiate around the age of sixteen.

Society was led by alphas and omegas. Alphas were driven and had a strong competitive instinct. Omegas were meticulous and good at leadership. Betas were somewhere in between and also made up the largest portion of the population.

“Eldest Miss, the family head just called. She said she will arrive in ten minutes.”

“Alright, I understand…”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Shuyun keenly sensed footsteps. She turned her head sharply and saw the young girl slowly coming downstairs.

The girl had already tidied herself up. Her face was bare of makeup, her ponytail was neatly tied, and she wore a white dress. One could not tell at all that she had been in such a sorry state earlier.

Her calm, rippleless pupils swept over Xie Shuyun once. There was none of the hatred from before. Her expression was indifferent as she walked past Xie Shuyun.

Sniffing lightly, Xie Shuyun seemed to still be able to smell a faint coconut milk fragrance.

Looking more carefully, the girl’s cheeks actually still carried a faint blush. It seemed that a single inhibitor injection could not perfectly suppress her heat period.

Xie Shuyun was wondering whether she should tell the girl to go upstairs and rest, but in the next second, the front door opened.

A woman who looked eighty percent similar to Xie Shuyun’s current body walked in. She looked under forty and was very well maintained.

Looking at that woman’s face, Xie Shuyun felt a little strange. Some blurry images seemed to flash through her mind, and her head hurt a little. An indescribable feeling gathered in her heart, making her lips part slightly, yet no sound came out.

Although the woman could not hide the exhaustion on her face, when she saw the two children sitting at the dining table waiting for her, she still revealed a joyful smile.

“Xiao Yun, Lingxue, sorry for making you wait so long.”

Her words made Xie Shuyun’s body stiffen.

The obscure feeling in her heart instantly faded, leaving only one thought spinning in her mind.

Miss Cheng…

Lingxue…

Cheng Lingxue!

This, this…

Even if she were beaten to death, she would never forget it.

This was clearly exactly the same as the female lead’s name!

Xie Shuyun, who had still been holding on to the slightest bit of luck, felt as if her heart had shattered.

“No, Auntie Xie, you’ve worked hard.”

The young girl—no, Cheng Lingxue—looked at the woman. The corners of her lips curved slightly, and her eyes carried traces of respect. Her voice was cold and clear, pleasant to the ear, yet with a slight sense of distance.

“Thank you, Lingxue…”

Xie Yun had originally wanted to reach out and touch Cheng Lingxue’s head, but before her hand could make contact, she stopped. She looked Cheng Lingxue up and down.

“You need to take care of your body. If you feel unwell, there’s no need to force yourself.”

“Mm. Thank you for your concern, Auntie Xie.”

After saying that, Cheng Lingxue lowered her head, while Xie Yun’s attention fell on Xie Shuyun, who had been silent all along, her expression constantly changing.

“What’s wrong, Xiao Yun?”

“Ah, nothing. Mother, you’ve worked hard. Welcome home.”

Xie Shuyun suppressed the collapsing emotions in her heart and smiled at Xie Yun. Before the maid could move, she stood up and pulled out the chair for Xie Yun.

Xie Shuyun’s actions made surprise flash through Xie Yun’s eyes, along with a trace of nostalgia.

Raising her hand to pat Xie Shuyun’s head, Xie Yun smiled and said,

“Thank you, Xiao Yun. You’re so considerate today. Did something good happen?”

“Nothing much. Mother must be hungry, right? Let’s hurry and eat.”

Xie Shuyun knew when to stop.

In the book, the scumbag A’s personality was temperamental and unpredictable. If her changes were too drastic, she did not know what consequences might follow.

As she thought this, Xie Shuyun’s gaze drifted back to Cheng Lingxue.

She could sense that Cheng Lingxue’s attitude toward Xie Yun and toward herself were completely different.

Simply put, it was like the difference between ice and fire.

But after thinking about all the awful things the original body had done in the book, this treatment was not strange at all.

For the sake of her future life, should she take advantage of the time she still had to salvage her image in Cheng Lingxue’s heart?

The more Xie Shuyun thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

After dinner, she quickly ran upstairs to think about her great plan to raise favorability. Cheng Lingxue sat for a while longer before excusing herself and returning to her room to rest.

Looking in the direction of the staircase, Xie Yun took a light sip of tea and sighed. She said to the beta housekeeper beside her,

“Qin Yu, keep a close eye on things during this period. Lingxue is a good child, but Xiao Yun… I’ve spoiled her too much.”

“Eldest Miss will grow up. Please rest assured, Family Head.”

If it had been before, Qin Yu probably would not have believed that Xie Shuyun would change in any way.

But thinking back to what had happened earlier, Miss… seemed a little different?

===

The next morning, Xie Shuyun arrived at the dining table feeling heavy-headed and light-footed, swaying unsteadily.

She was wearing an exquisite uniform that had clearly been ironed and looked like it belonged to an elite school.

She truly had not expected that on the second day after transmigrating, she would have to go to school.

And she even had to start from high school.

Just thinking about it made her feel hopeless.

Breakfast was very abundant, with both Chinese and Western styles available. Xie Shuyun was not picky either. She chose a few things and began eating.

Halfway through the meal, she felt something was strange.

Why hadn’t Cheng Lingxue come downstairs for breakfast?

Just as she was about to ask, she once again smelled that familiar coconut milk fragrance.

She turned her head, wanting to greet her, but Cheng Lingxue brushed right past her. Xie Shuyun’s words got stuck in her throat, unable to go up or down.

However, Cheng Lingxue’s outfit at this moment was also eye-catching.

The elite school’s uniform had a fixed style, but it could be freely matched. Xie Shuyun, for example, preferred pants, while Cheng Lingxue wore the skirt version.

The dark-blue uniform was paired with a snow-white shirt, a red tie at the collar, and a short skirt that reached just above the knees. She also wore black stockings. She looked both youthful and extremely beautiful.

But before Xie Shuyun could finish admiring her, she stared blankly as Cheng Lingxue did not stop at all. Instead, she walked directly to the entrance, changed into sneakers, and prepared to go out.

Xie Shuyun’s heart grew anxious, and she immediately stood up with a swish.

Because she moved too hastily, the table shook, causing the bowls and plates on top to clatter against each other.

The movement finally caught Cheng Lingxue’s attention.

She looked over expressionlessly. Her eyes clearly seemed to say, “What trick are you trying to pull now?”

Xie Shuyun took a deep breath, pointed at the food on the table, and said,

“You haven’t eaten breakfast yet. Why are you already going out?”
