After Transmigrating as a Scumbag Alpha, My Omega Underwent a Second Differentiation - Chapter 3

The dancing spots of light were finally blocked by the outline of a person. Her eyes, stung by the backlight, gradually traced the appearance of the woman standing beside her.

At first glance, that face did not resemble Teacher Yun—or rather, Yun Rong—at all. It was clearly more mature and experienced. Especially now, as she glared at Sheng Yinglan with an imposing air that needed no anger to command authority, she had a presence Yun Rong did not possess.

But through the bone structure beneath her skin and the proportions of her features, it was easy to see that she and Yun Rong carried the same family’s temperament.

On top of that, when the other woman had threatened her just now, it more or less counted as a self-introduction.

Sheng Yinglan’s brain, which had been shut down for the entire night, finally began to function. At the same time, the fragments of life that had suddenly flooded into her mind last night made her frown tightly. In confusion, she turned her head slightly and spoke a name.

“Yun Keyi?”

Yun Keyi was Yun Rong’s paternal half-sister in the book. Before Yun Rong was found and brought back by the family, Yun Keyi had also been the only heir.

What surprised Sheng Yinglan was that, in the novel, when she drugged Yun Rong, Yun Rong had clearly still been a pitiful little thing struggling in the mud and had not yet been found by her family.

Otherwise, she would not have been humiliated and bullied so wantonly by a rich second-generation like her.

But now, the flashback fragments in her mind were clearly telling her that for the past two weeks, the only piece of news constantly dominating the trending searches had been that the Yun family had finally found the little princess who had been living outside the family for many years.

Yun Rong had finally returned to the Yun family after years apart, becoming the second heir of the Yun Group.

The contents of the novel were completely different from the events that had already happened in this world and had been stuffed into Sheng Yinglan’s mind.

Yun Rong had returned to the Yun family ahead of schedule.

“Oh… so you still haven’t given up?” Yun Keyi said. “This surprised act of yours is pretty good. Are you going to say next that you don’t have a phone, don’t read the news, didn’t know Yun Rong had already been brought home, and had no idea she had become an heir of the Yun Group? That you truly like her, even though you’ve now been thrown out by the Sheng family…”

“Jie, I’m standing right here, aren’t I? I’m already fine. It was just… I just drank a little too much…”

Yun Keyi had naturally heard the rumors about Sheng Yinglan among the wealthy young heirs. She knew that someone like her was a waste of air just by existing.

With a sneer on her face, she had been exposing the other woman’s pretenses bit by bit. She even wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule Sheng Yinglan using the recent events that had happened to her, but Yun Rong opened her mouth and interrupted her.

The flashback fragments belonging to the original body were far too complicated. Sheng Yinglan had only vaguely grasped a few of them and had not yet had time to examine them closely before her gaze was instinctively drawn to Yun Rong’s voice.

Yun Rong seemed to have already washed up. The black fitted high-collared shirt she had been wearing had been replaced by a long white dress with the same high collar. The waistline of the dress was designed to sit high, paired with a bright red leather waist cincher, making her look lively without losing a touch of sensuality.

Her neck was wrapped so tightly that not even an inch of skin could be seen, and a section of gauze was faintly visible at the back of her neck.

Even though she was dressed so brightly that it seemed she could attend a group meeting in the next second, the sickly pallor of her face and the dark bruising beneath her eyes both showed that she probably had not rested properly since last night.

The way she spoke to Yun Keyi was not intimate, but it carried respect.

When she stopped Yun Keyi from continuing, she even seemed to want to tug at Yun Keyi’s sleeve. But in the end, perhaps because of the other woman’s expression, she only rubbed her fingers together unconsciously before lowering her hand again.

Even when she tried to argue that the two of them had simply drunk too much, her tone clearly lacked confidence.

Yun Rong’s blatant attempt to lie with her eyes wide open directly angered Yun Keyi at the side. She turned her head and looked at Yun Rong with disdain.

“Do you think I’m worried about you? Worried about a younger sister who has only called me ‘sister’ for two weeks? Do you know how much Yun Group’s stock price will fall when the market opens this afternoon because of these photos? Do you know how much market value will evaporate?”

Her voice was full of mockery. She clearly despised the way Yun Rong had addressed her, and even took two steps back, sweeping Yun Rong from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze.

“With the way you are, how could you possibly be a member of the Yun family’s…”

“Miss Yun, I was the one who drugged Yun Rong last night. If you need it, I can clarify things publicly. Of course, you can also call the police directly. I’ll tell them the truth.”

There was no need to speak so viciously to her own younger sister.

She looked very hurt.

In front of an outsider, Yun Keyi already made no attempt to hide her dislike for Yun Rong. Sheng Yinglan did not know how Yun Rong had spent the past two weeks. The small relief in Sheng Yinglan’s heart—that Yun Rong had returned home earlier than in the novel and could perhaps suffer less—vanished instantly.

Before Yun Keyi could say anything even crueler, Sheng Yinglan could not help but interrupt her.

The moment she said this, the other two women both turned to look at her.

In truth, Sheng Yinglan was not saying this casually. She had thought it through carefully.

Although she had started off by receiving such a scumbag of a role, she could not exactly ram her head into a wall and see whether she could restart the game, right?

Of course, it would be great if she could restart. But if she could not, then now that Sheng Yinglan had finally seen this face identical to Teacher Yun’s, to be honest, she was a little reluctant to leave.

So she had to think about how to reverse this character’s traits.

Sheng Yinglan’s self-awareness was very clear. She could not become someone as bad as the original owner. Therefore, she could only find a way to make the original owner become a good person in everyone’s eyes.

To put it in professional terms for character creation, she needed to set up a major event for the character, let her experience growth, and give this character an arc.

And right now, she had just drugged Yun Rong. Taking this opportunity to turn herself in and reform was a decent choice.

Besides, last night in the room, she had forcefully restrained herself from touching Yun Rong and had even let the other woman leave the room. No matter how one looked at it, this should count as an attempted crime.

And the original owner’s family seemed to be rich and powerful. With some maneuvering, she probably would not be sentenced. That was why she dared to say those words.

Although Yun Keyi was somewhat shocked that a human trash like Sheng Yinglan could actually say something so humane, she was not a three-year-old child who would simply believe the other woman’s words.

In her opinion, who knew what crooked idea Sheng Yinglan had in mind?

With a smile that was not quite a smile, she raised her brows and glanced sideways at Sheng Yinglan.

“There’s no need to say such pretty words in front of me. You’ll go turn yourself in to the police, then later hand the doctor’s diagnosis to them and tell them that you’re not an Alpha who hasn’t differentiated yet, but someone suffering from glandular disability disorder. That you fundamentally couldn’t do anything to Yun Rong. Then you’ll drag the Yun Group out and parade us around with you, won’t you?”

At this point, Yun Keyi deliberately paused, seemingly wanting to observe Sheng Yinglan’s reaction.

As expected, the other woman’s face was completely blank, as though this was the first time she had ever heard the words “glandular disability disorder.”

Yun Keyi snorted.

“I underestimated you before. I thought that when you were still in the Sheng family, you were just a useless rich second-generation spoiled rotten. I didn’t expect that after being driven out, your brain would actually become much sharper. Your acting is pretty good too.”

What glandular disability disorder?

What did she mean, driven out?

Those abrupt words caught Sheng Yinglan’s attention. Very quickly, she searched out the flashback fragments related to “being driven out.”

Sheng Yinglan was not the Sheng family’s biological child. She had been accidentally switched with another family’s child when she was young. After being raised for many years into a spoiled and willful person, she had been swept out of the house by the parents she had called father and mother for over twenty years, though they had no blood relation to her.

Only, in the novel, this plot happened after Sheng Yinglan had already forcibly possessed Yun Rong for a very long time.

But in reality, the original owner had been kicked out less than three days ago.

It seemed that not only was Yun Rong’s storyline different from the novel, even the original owner’s development was different.

Although Sheng Yinglan was confused, she did not show it. This time, she carefully searched through all the memories in her mind and discovered that there really was no information related to glandular disability disorder.

She was just about to ask Yun Keyi what this meant when she heard Yun Rong’s slightly angry voice.

“Jie, how can you do that? That’s someone else’s privacy. You clearly promised me just now…”

She glanced apologetically at Sheng Yinglan, then looked at Yun Keyi with disapproval, like a child showing an aggrieved and helpless expression after being deceived.

“Even if I don’t say it, the doctor will. Have you forgotten where this is?” Yun Keyi said. “What I said just now was that if you want me not to reveal this privacy, I have conditions. And I want to talk to her.”

Faced with Yun Rong’s accusation, Yun Keyi recounted without any guilt what the two of them had argued about while Sheng Yinglan had been asleep.

Now, even if Sheng Yinglan were foolish, she understood what Yun Keyi meant.

The other woman had actually already thought of a countermeasure from the beginning. She just had not said anything. Only when Sheng Yinglan had reached the end of the road did Yun Keyi finally reveal her true face.

Yun Rong seemed to still want to argue with her, but Sheng Yinglan spoke first.

“Since Miss Yun has already thought it through, why not just say it directly?”

A faint smile hung on her face, and she did not show any fear.

Ever since becoming an actress these past few years, she had always worked hard to slowly move closer to Teacher Yun, hoping that one day she could stand shoulder to shoulder with her.

But fate played tricks on people.

Although her acting skills might still be far inferior to the other woman’s, she had learned quite a lot of this calm composure.

Yun Keyi seemed rather pleased with her attitude of knowing when to yield. However, she still stood very straight, looking down at Sheng Yinglan from above. It was as though lowering herself to sit down and speak properly with the other woman would greatly tarnish her dignity.

But this time, she no longer kept her in suspense.

“My condition is this. You will tell the police, honestly and in full, how you drugged those other Omegas before and how you toyed with them. You will also hand over every video you recorded. Then you will tell the police that you originally intended to do the same thing to Yun Rong, and that she is a victim from beginning to end.

“With the evidence of how you toyed with others in the past, the public will believe Yun Rong is innocent. If you agree to this condition, I will keep the matter of your glandular disability disorder confidential. I will also instruct the police to keep it confidential and ensure that you are given a safe place to stay during detention.

“You’ll lose your freedom, but you’ll keep your life.”

Sheng Yinglan had seen plenty of the ugly faces of capitalists during her years in the entertainment industry.

However, apart from being harassed and even receiving inappropriate propositions when she first signed with her company, her star path afterward had been very smooth.

She had always thought she was simply lucky.

It was not until one day after Teacher Yun left that she learned from others, after the news passed through several mouths, that the company matters that had been settled for her before had all been handled by Teacher Yun behind the scenes.

The reason no one later dared to harass her was also because they were giving Teacher Yun face.

She had not expected that today, she would experience this kind of thing again.

With just a light movement of Yun Keyi’s lips, she spoke of exchanging freedom for life as if it were the simplest thing in the world.

Sheng Yinglan tugged at the corner of her mouth self-mockingly.

Before she met Teacher Yun, before she became an actress, every day of her life had been a struggle to survive.

She really had not expected that even after transmigrating into a book, she would still experience the feeling of her life being outside her own control.

Perhaps that self-mocking smile provoked Yun Keyi.

Without even much of a pause, Yun Keyi told her what would happen if she refused the best solution.

“If you’re unwilling, I’ll tell the Omegas you bullied in the past that you have glandular disability disorder. I won’t even need to do anything myself. Now that the Sheng family can no longer protect you, the moment you step out of this hospital, those people will be able to play you to death.”

The Sheng Yinglan in the novel was an out-and-out scumbag Alpha.

Even before she differentiated, she liked to find ways to get her hands on any Omega who caught her eye. Although she had not differentiated yet, she had plenty of ways to toy with those Omegas to death.

After she differentiated, this behavior only became worse.

She also had the perverted habit of recording videos, both to control others and to satisfy her own preferences.

But because the Sheng family was large and powerful, she had always acted without fear.

It was not until it was discovered that she was not the Sheng family’s biological daughter and she was thrown out that she suffered malicious revenge from others, including Yun Rong.

To be honest, Sheng Yinglan definitely wanted both her life and her freedom.

If she wanted to die, she would have already used that method to see whether she could restart. She also did not want to go to prison and lose her freedom.

After all, the reason she stayed was because she wanted to spend more time with Yun Rong.

The other woman had a face exactly like Teacher Yun’s.

Just being able to look at her like this already made Sheng Yinglan feel very satisfied.

Her mind was not stupid, nor was she impulsive. She knew even more clearly that in this situation, she could only first choose to agree to Yun Keyi’s condition.

After all, things like video evidence would definitely need to be found in the original owner’s lair. As long as she delayed things temporarily, she would eventually be able to think of a way.

On top of that, she currently knew nothing about glandular disability disorder. But based on Yun Rong and Yun Keyi’s conversation, she could guess that having this thing was quite troublesome.

If she could only protect herself for the time being, she had to ask a doctor about the specific details as soon as possible.

However, what puzzled her was that when she had searched her mind just now, she had not found any memories related to those matters, let alone any images.

Seeing that Yun Keyi’s patience was almost exhausted, Sheng Yinglan prepared to first use a delaying tactic.

Unexpectedly, Yun Rong, who had been keeping her head lowered at the side the entire time, spoke at that moment.

“She’s my girlfriend.”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

Yun Rong had only just started speaking when Yun Keyi interrupted her.

“I said, we’ll announce publicly that she’s my girlfriend. Rather than trying so hard to clear our relationship, it would be better to openly admit it.

“Your first plan may be able to clarify things, but it will still take time. The group’s stock price will only continue to fluctuate as the incident develops. Unstable market factors will cause even more trouble. Jie, you should understand this better than I do.”

When she said these words, the cowardice that had originally been in her eyes had disappeared.

In its place was a deep, unfathomable emotion flashing through the depths of her gaze, vanishing in an instant.

The consequence of being too shocked was that Yun Keyi’s attention was completely focused on what Yun Rong had said, causing her to miss the emotion in the other woman’s eyes.

Sheng Yinglan, meanwhile, was also momentarily dazed from shock. For an instant, she thought the person saying those words was Teacher Yun, and therefore overlooked Yun Rong’s most direct reaction.

“Her reputation is simply too terrible. Even if we announce it like this, it still won’t reduce the Yun Group’s losses. You’ve only been back for two weeks, yet you already want to interfere with company matters…”

“Jie, I don’t want to meddle in the company’s affairs, nor do I understand how to reduce the losses.”

Yun Rong said, “But I’m willing to transfer 5% of the 20% Yun Group shares left to me by my parents to you. I believe that way, as the company’s largest shareholder, you’ll be able to give the company an explanation, right?”

In just this short time, Yun Rong seemed to have once again become that person whose eyes flickered with timidity, someone who wanted to get closer to Yun Keyi.

She boldly put forward this idea, as if she had no idea what kind of consequences would follow once it was carried out.
