After Transmigrating as a Scum Alpha, I Marked my White Moonlight Omega - Chapter 16

“Jiang Nan!!”

Before Jiang Nan could respond to Dan Yang, a familiar voice calling her name rang out from outside the shop. Fortunately, the market area was naturally noisy, so it didn’t seem out of place.

Jiang Nan turned her head at the sound and saw Lin Yu. She was still wearing the same grey hoodie from earlier, her black hair tied casually in a low bun. Her expression was somewhat grim as she strode toward them.

Lin Yu had only managed to stay calm at home for about ten minutes. Reflecting on her attitude toward Jiang Nan, a wave of self-reproach had washed over her.

It was she who refused to tell Jiang Nan about the attack last night; she who didn’t want Jiang Nan to live in fear and worry; and just now, it was she who had treated Jiang Nan with that inexplicable “stink face.”

Truly, it was unreasonable.

It wasn’t until she stepped out of the room, looked around, and saw the keys and wallet at the entrance—along with the missing sneakers—that her heart skipped a beat, as if a piece had been hollowed out.

The outside world was so dangerous; just how much danger would Jiang Nan be in?

Lin Yu didn’t even know how she had rushed out of the house, following every surrounding route to find Jiang Nan. Luckily—thankfully—she spotted her in a nearby fried noodle shop.

Looking up at Lin Yu’s grim expression, Jiang Nan felt a flicker of guilt. She scratched her cheek awkwardly, glanced at Dan Yang opposite her, and stood up to introduce him.

“Wife! This is Dan Yang. I dropped my wallet just now, and he helped me.”

Jiang Nan: See how amazing your husband is? I stepped out and went straight for the jackpot!

Hearing this, Lin Yu didn’t rush to settle scores regarding Jiang Nan’s unauthorized outing. Instead, she shifted her gaze to Dan Yang in his apron, looking him up and down to confirm if his identity and appearance matched the investigation reports.

She glanced around. The menu posters covered in years of grease and the nearly dilapidated, humming freezer suggested that this shop had been open for a very long time.

“…What were you two talking about just now?”

Lin Yu sat down beside Jiang Nan as she spoke, wanting to gain a deeper understanding of this key figure.

Jiang Nan was about to explain, but Dan Yang beat her to it without the slightest hesitation: “Sister just said that to thank me, she plans to invite me to your house for a meal.”

Jiang Nan: Hey, hey, hey, I haven’t agreed to that yet.

Lin Yu’s gaze toward Dan Yang sharpened slightly. She pondered for a moment, seemingly weighing something, before finally agreeing: “Fine.”

Upon hearing this, Dan Yang’s indifferent face finally flickered with a smile. “Alright then. When I’m on my lunch break, I’ll come find you.”

Jiang Nan tilted her head, asking in confusion: “Eh? You know where we live?”

Dan Yang looked at Jiang Nan and Lin Yu with a polite smile. “I do. You’re the new neighbors who moved in across from my house in the early hours of yesterday, right?”

As Jiang Nan and Lin Yu left, the noodle shop began to welcome a wave of customers ordering takeout. Behind the glass partition blurred by grease, Dan Yang skillfully began his daily work routine.

Jiang Nan withdrew her gaze, only to realize that her hand was being held tightly in Lin Yu’s palm. The constant warmth flowing through made the corners of her mouth curl up. “Wife, you’re not angry anymore?”

Lin Yu’s train of thought was interrupted. Her gaze instinctively moved to the face of the person beside her. Those curved eyes and translucent skin, under the interlacing sunlight blocked by buildings, presented a look of ultimate radiance.

Her throat tightened. She tightened her grip on Jiang Nan’s hand slightly, averted her eyes, and spoke in a low voice: “Don’t go out on your own again… and about this morning, cough cough, I was in the wrong.”

This was likely her first time apologizing to someone—and to a “scumbag Alpha pervert” she used to loathe to the extreme, no less.

Jiang Nan nodded obediently. Seeing her wife take the initiative to admit a mistake made her deeply moved. She made a theatrical gesture of wiping away tears: “Then Wife… tonight… can we do it a few more times?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu’s grip on Jiang Nan’s hand turned into a pinch. The tips of her ears turned slightly red, her brow furrowed, and the veins on her arm popped.

Lin Yu: I shouldn’t expect a pervert to say anything decent.

Jiang Nan immediately caved: “Ouch, ouch, ouch! Wife! Hey! Don’t misunderstand, it’s mainly because my divine power is low; when I looked at Dan Yang just now, I really couldn’t see anything.”

At this, Lin Yu couldn’t help but recall Dan Yang’s appearance. Those dark eyes hidden beneath the messy hair on his forehead didn’t seem simple.

Furthermore, for a twenty-year-old boy to be so composed in both action and dialogue without showing much emotion…

Her gaze turned sharp as she said solemnly, “Dan Yang’s current situation is suspicious. We need to observe and understand him slowly.”

Jiang Nan rubbed her chin. As they walked to their front door side-by-side, she looked back deeply at the closed door across from them. Images flashed through her mind; her pupils constricted. She hurriedly fumbled the keys out of her pocket, opened the door, pulled Lin Yu inside, and locked it behind them.

Seeing Jiang Nan’s unsettled expression, Lin Yu stepped forward to ask, “Did you see something just now?”

Jiang Nan nodded. She pulled Lin Yu by the wrist into the living room and sat cross-legged on the sofa, describing the images she had seen with an expression of disbelief.

“I just saw an aura of death coming from Dan Yang’s home. I suspect someone died there recently… but I couldn’t see anything from Dan Yang himself. It was like a hollow void.”

“It means Dan Yang feels no emotion toward the deceased—no love, no hate, no resentment, no grief. Nothing at all.”

Receiving this information, Lin Yu’s brow furrowed even deeper. She seemed to recall something and spoke slowly.

“Actually… Yue Qian brought me news about Dan Yang’s family last night. They said Dan Yang’s father died in a casino. According to the investigation, he was running his mouth, and combined with the enemies he’d made over the years, he was beaten to death in a casino restroom.”

Hearing this, Jiang Nan got a bit excited, her mouth curling into a smile. “It seems my vision was spot on!”

Lin Yu turned to boil a kettle of water in the living room. While wiping the glass cups on the low table, she noted: “If your guess is correct, it seems Dan Yang has become numb regarding his father.”

Jiang Nan thought Lin Yu’s words made sense and nodded.

As a father addicted to gambling, he had been volatile and violent at home for years and was cold-blooded toward Dan Yang. His death was likely a form of liberation for the boy.

Lin Yu stopped what she was doing. Looking at the sunlight streaming onto the narrow balcony, she continued her analysis: “But the gambling debts his father owed won’t be canceled because of it. That’s the rule of the underworld… and the Wang family Alphas won’t just let it go.”

Seeing the water had boiled, Jiang Nan stood up to pour it into a glass. Seeing that Lin Yu’s brow hadn’t unfurled since the beginning, she leaned in and comforted her softly.

“Wife, our investigation has only just begun. No matter what Dan Yang’s situation is, we can handle it well, can’t we?”

Lin Yu took the hot water Jiang Nan poured for her. The chill she had picked up outside was dispelled by the sudden warmth, and her mood finally relaxed. she looked down and gave a flat nod.

Yes, she was being too tense.

Whether it was last night, the events of today, or the progress of the clues, she had been in a state of constant high tension.

Seeing Lin Yu’s brow slowly relax, Jiang Nan reached out and gently pulled her into an embrace, resting her chin among the other’s cascading hair. The faint scent of Photinia made her nuzzle in greedily.

“…Wife, you smell so good.”

Lin Yu looked up slightly, her cheeks flushing. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she didn’t speak, but in her heart she whispered: You smell good too.

Jiang Nan’s hands began to move restlessly, lifting the thin hoodie and sliding upward until she touched that softness, causing the woman in her arms to let out a small whimper.

Her actions grew more bold, yet her eyes held an innocent plea. “Wife, I want you.” As she spoke, she stealthily released a bit of pheromones.

Lin Yu’s eyes were already growing hazy, her body trembling slightly. The scent of Photinia leaves in her breath made her mind go blank; for her, it was the ultimate drug.

She wrapped her arms around Jiang Nan’s neck. Holding onto the last shred of her remaining logic, she parted her lips slightly, her brow furrowed, and her voice carried a blush-inducing shame: “…I want it.”

Seeing this, Jiang Nan’s eyes paused for a split second before she quickly pinned Lin Yu to the floor, fiercely sealing the lips that were continuously letting out whimpers, drawing a sensitive shudder from the woman in her arms.

Ha, Wife really is… too sexy.

After showering, Jiang Nan came out to see Lin Yu at the balcony using a hairdryer to dry the damp ends of her hair. The pheromones lingering in the room from their earlier intimacy smelled somewhat suggestive. On the back of Lin Yu’s neck was a mark she had left. Looking at her from a distance like this made Jiang Nan’s heart race.

Jiang Nan: No, no, no. Dan Yang is coming later; I can’t start another round.

After drying her hair, Lin Yu saw Jiang Nan standing in the living room shaking her head like an idiot. She couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and chuckle inwardly.

As Jiang Nan looked up and saw her wife staring straight at her, she was just about to say she was going into the kitchen to cook when the doorbell rang.

A familiar voice sounded from outside. “It’s me, Dan Yang.”
