After Transmigrating as a Scum Alpha, I Marked my White Moonlight Omega - Chapter 14

“You mean to say Jiang Zhou is the one who killed my adoptive father?”

“Jiang Zhou has never been honest. I’d say the Perverted Spirit Medium is spot on!”

“He’s spent all these years just fooling around; isn’t it a bit far-fetched for him to covet the position of the organization’s Boss now?”

At this moment, Jiang Nan was sitting in the villa’s living room, surrounded by her wife’s subordinates, who were all chiming in with their opinions.

Lin Yu shifted her gaze back to Jiang Nan. Noticing the look, Jiang Nan immediately sat up straight and stated with renewed certainty:

“The rebellious aura on Jiang Zhou indicates that he has recently committed an act of betraying a relative, but it doesn’t directly prove he is the one who killed Chairman Lin.”

Hearing this, Lin Yu immediately instructed Nan Zhi: “Nan Zhi, focus your investigation on Jiang Zhou’s whereabouts over the past few months.”

Nan Zhi, sitting nearby, nodded in understanding. Lin Yu, seemingly uneasy, furrowed her brow slightly and emphasized: “Remember, I want to know every single move he made—including who he slept with every day.”

Nan Zhi’s eyes flickered for a moment, but she quickly nodded: “Yes, Boss.”

Jiang Nan: Wife… really has a meticulous mind.

Lin Yu seemed to remember something and asked: “What about Dan Yang, whom I told you to investigate last time? Any results?”

Yue Qian projected the completed investigation report onto the wall behind her and began to respond.

“Boss, according to our investigation, the father of Dan Yang from the slums incurred massive gambling debts in his early years. As the only child, Dan Yang has been working various odd jobs every day to fill his father’s bottomless pit.”

“However, a month ago, Dan Yang had contact with the inner circle of the Wang family Alphas. It’s likely because his father’s gambling debts are all from the Wang family’s casinos.”

As soon as Yue Qian finished, the room erupted into a heated discussion.

“It’s obvious! Dan Yang couldn’t pay his debts, and the Wang family forced his hand!”

“Uh, but what reason would the Wang family have to attack us? And what’s the deal with the rebellious aura on Jiang Zhou?”

“The Wang and Lin families haven’t crossed paths for years. Now that Chairman Lin is dead, there’s no guarantee the Wangs don’t want to take over our position in the underworld.”

Jiang Nan: This discussion is getting pretty brain-draining.

Lin Yu frowned as she listened to the chatter, cleared her throat, and looked flatly toward Jiang Nan.

“Jiang Nan, what do you think?”

Being called out by her wife, Jiang Nan couldn’t help but scratch the back of her head uncomfortably.

…Is this even something I should be involved in?

With everyone looking at her, Jiang Nan gave a dry laugh and answered uncertainly: “Regarding the speculation about Dan Yang, I can’t be sure yet… After all, I haven’t met him. I can’t confirm if he carries a bloody aura of murder.”

Although she did have divine power, it was better not to talk nonsense about things she hadn’t seen. After all… the chances of a “half-baked” medium messing up were quite high.

After she spoke, a chorus of murmurs broke out; everyone nodded, agreeing that the Perverted Spirit Medium had a point.

Lin Yu pondered for a moment before slowly standing up. Her cold features carried the sharp edge of a leader. She announced in a steady voice:

“In that case, I’ve decided. To avoid our investigation being too obvious, I plan to take Jiang Nan to stay in the slums for a while starting in two days. We’ll get close to Dan Yang’s family and investigate the connections.”

The meeting ended in a clamor of subordinates urging the Boss to reconsider. Eventually, only Lin Yu and Jiang Nan were left in the living room, neither breaking the silence.

Although Jiang Nan hadn’t finished the novel, she vaguely remembered the general plot.

At this specific point in time—staying in the slums—Lin Yu was supposed to encounter the “domineering aggressive” Alpha lead of the book: Song Mo.

Song Mo, a high-quality older Alpha and distant relative of the Wang family, would be heavily injured while being hunted by her clan. She would collapse in a slum alleyway and be accidentally picked up by Lin Yu. After that, they would start living together, join forces, and begin a sweet, powerful life.

Generally speaking, this had absolutely nothing to do with a minor “cannon fodder” like Jiang Nan.

But, her wife had already been marked by her! So she belonged to her!

So what if she’s a domineering aggressive Alpha? Her wife surely loves her… right?

Lin Yu glanced at Jiang Nan, whose expression was shifting unpredictably. She raised an eyebrow in curiosity. “Why aren’t you speaking?”

Snapped out of her thoughts, Jiang Nan hurriedly looked up with a dry laugh. “Uh, nothing. It’s just that everyone is worried about you, Wife, so… I am too.”

Jiang Nan: I’m definitely not going to say I’m afraid you’ll be snatched away. Wuwu.

Lin Yu knew Jiang Nan was naturally afraid of death; the girl felt like she was going to heaven the moment a fight broke out. Even though Lin Yu often felt speechless about it, she could somehow tolerate it.

…Probably because Jiang Nan’s medium abilities can help me?

It must be that.

She withdrew her thoughts. Her voice lost its hardness from the meeting and softened considerably. “Don’t worry. Nan Zhi and Yue Qian will arrange everything and monitor our movements constantly. There won’t be any danger.”

Jiang Nan was naturally confident in her wife’s strength. Even if their rivals discovered them in the slums, her wife’s combat skills would easily ensure a smooth escape.

“Wife, if—and I mean if—one day you found a heavily injured Alpha in an alleyway, what would you do?”

After asking, she watched Lin Yu intensely, even holding her breath out of nervousness. Her face betrayed an air of desperation.

Lin Yu: ?

Lin Yu paused. Perhaps the gaze was too firm and desperate for it to be a random whim.

She frowned and answered instinctively: “I’d call an ambulance, obviously… Isn’t that just common sense?”

Jiang Nan: Ha! It seems Wife’s sense of self-protection is quite high.

This answer made her breathe a sigh of relief, and her expression relaxed significantly.

Lin Yu knew Jiang Nan was someone who couldn’t hide her thoughts, but out of pride, she didn’t ask directly. She just tucked the moment away in her heart.

As someone who came to the villa with nothing, Jiang Nan didn’t have much luggage. At most, she added some yarn balls and knitting needles to the suitcase Yue Qian had prepared for her.

Jiang Nan spent an entire day behind closed doors and finally learned the most basic knitting method from Yue Qian.

Once she managed to knit a small section, her face filled with “smug pride.” Holding the crooked, messy knitted piece, she bragged to Yue Qian:

“See, Yue Qian! I told you I could do it!”

Yue Qian looked at the fabric that barely managed to be a continuous piece of yarn, filled with all sorts of bizarrely shaped stitch patterns. She fell into a long, five-second silence.

Yue Qian: I’m really looking forward to seeing the Boss’s face when she receives this. ^_

Seeing Yue Qian’s silence, Jiang Nan assumed she was awestruck by her exquisite knitting skills. Her enthusiasm flared even higher as she continued to knit feverishly.

Then Nan Zhi walked into the room. Seeing Jiang Nan, she announced: “Perverted Spirit Medium, the car is ready. The Boss is waiting for you outside.”

Jiang Nan was so startled she shoved the messy scarf into her suitcase and turned around with a dry laugh. “Ah, I’m coming!”

Nan Zhi: …No need to hide it.

Dragging her suitcase out to the villa entrance, Jiang Nan felt the biting cold of the winter night. She wrapped her heavy coat tighter and dove into the car, instantly feeling the refreshing rush of warmth.

She couldn’t help but turn her head and ask: “Wife, why are we leaving in the middle of the night? Didn’t we say tomorrow morning?”

Lin Yu was wearing a rare, thick trench coat in a bright, vivid color. Under the moonlight, one could see it was a macaron tone popular in recent years. Her soft black hair cascaded over her shoulders.

Since her wife was usually out on missions, she usually wore lightweight leather coats that didn’t stain easily with blood. It was rare to see her dressed like this.

Jiang Nan: Wife looks so beautiful like this too.

Lin Yu’s gaze shifted toward her, her cold eyes softening instantly. “Because movement during the day is too obvious. Leaving at this time is less likely to attract attention.”

Jiang Nan nodded in understanding, thinking her Lady Wife was indeed thorough… it was just that, in the middle of the night, she was getting sleepy.

Sitting in the slowly moving, warm car, she let out a yawn. Physiological tears blurred her vision, but realizing she was on a mission with her wife, she blinked and tried to stay awake.

Leaning by the window, Lin Yu noticed her companion’s movement. Turning her head, she saw a face tortured by sleepiness. For some reason, her heart softened. Uncontrollably, she spoke softly:

“Sleep. I’ll wake you when we arrive.”

She moved slightly closer to Jiang Nan. Jiang Nan’s swaying head naturally settled onto Lin Yu’s shoulder. Having found a comfortable spot to sleep, Jiang Nan pouted contentedly, closed her eyes, and drifted off.

Lin Yu looked down at the head on her shoulder, which was wobbling as if it might slip at any moment. It made her heart itch. Inexplicably, she reached out to support Jiang Nan’s chin.

The slightly cool temperature transferred to her fingertips. In the moment she wanted to pull back, she couldn’t bear to.

She… would absolutely never admit that she had fallen for this pervert.
