After Transmigrating as a Scumbag Alpha, the Reborn Omega Always Wants to Cling (GL) - Chapter 10
The next week, Su Ziqin was clearly avoiding Fu Qingyun, coming home early and leaving late every day.
She used the excuse that final exams were coming up and that she needed to focus on studying at school.
Fu Qingyun knew she was avoiding her, so she was happy to have some peace and quiet, focusing most of her energy on work and dealing with the plot.
At 3:00 PM on Friday, Fu Qingyun finished work early and was chatting with 12138 in her office.
[Bigshot, are we not going to do anything about that little web drama of Su Yingying’s? In the original book, she became famous because of that drama.] 12138 was searching for news online.
As the protagonist, Su Yingying was currently just a small, 18th-tier actress, but she would soon become famous with a web drama.
And this web drama was exactly the one that Qin Renfeng had snatched a few days ago.
Fu Qingyun said rationally, [This drama doesn’t make much money.]
[We’re talking about the plot, not the investment.] 12138 secretly rolled its eyes. [Once the protagonist becomes famous, her luck will be even stronger, and we’ll be very passive.]
Fu Qingyun sighed, [Now I finally know why Qin Renfeng wanted to snatch such an unprofitable project.]
[Exactly. He’s jealous.] After all, the original host invested in this drama for the original protagonist.
Fu Qingyun rubbed her chin, [But we can’t directly interfere, can we?]
12138… That’s true, [Then what should we do? Just watch the protagonist’s luck soar?]
Her distinct knuckles bent slightly, gently tapping the desk.
[I don’t quite understand.]
[What?] Is there anything in this world that you don’t understand?
[Why is the protagonist so against Su Ziqin? Su Ziqin was adopted, wasn’t she? Why would the protagonist be so hostile toward an adopted daughter who poses no threat?]
12138… [The plot didn’t mention that either…]
Fu Qingyun sneered, [So we have to investigate ourselves after all. Did the original book mention Su Ziqin’s background?]
[No, the book only mentioned that Su Ziqin got revenge on the scummy Alpha. After learning that the original host was instigated by Su Yingying, she carried ten kilograms of TNT to blow up the Su family villa. The male lead rushed into the ruins to save the female lead, and then it’s a happy ending.]
Fu Qingyun pinched her temples, [When did Su Ziqin die?]
[According to the timeline, it’s a little over two years from now.]
[Mhm.] Fu Qingyun took out her phone. The contacts were very clean, with only a few numbers. [The original host is also very strange.]
[A scumbag who doesn’t gamble, doesn’t smoke, and doesn’t chase women. Besides her terrible taste in women and being a lickspittle for Su Yingying, she has no other flaws.]
[Your point is?] As a cannon fodder side character, the original host didn’t have many scenes in the original plot. 12138’s knowledge was limited.
But after being in this world for half a month, Fu Qingyun also gradually discovered that the original host wasn’t a complete scumbag.
[How was the original host’s relationship with her family?]
[Not very good. The Fu family appeared even less in the plot and were completely glossed over later on.]
[Mhm.] She wanted to go to the Fu family’s old residence, but she was a little hesitant.
She was too different from the original host. She was able to fool Su Ziqin because of 12138’s replies, which temporarily stabilized Su Ziqin.
But how could the original host’s family not notice the difference between her and the original host? If they found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Ding dong~” The forum notification sounded.
12138 operated the computer to open the chat interface.
A message flashed on the screen: [Studier: Are you there?]
[Oh, didn’t the little villain say she was studying?] 12138 teased.
A week ago, the little villain spent all her time at school to avoid the bigshot’s “pursuit.” The bigshot had no choice but to put on its vest and “guide” Su Ziqin remotely to make her open up.
[12138: I am.] Fu Qingyun sat down and replied.
[Studier: I saw you selling books on the forum, and your business seems to be doing well.]
[12138: Thank you. It’s all thanks to your forum. And thank you for letting me sell things on your forum.]
12138 clicked its tongue twice. This bigshot was really something. Not only did she subtly guide the little villain onto the path of e-commerce, but she also earned a lot in a week from the bookstore’s commissions.
[Studier: I want to transition the forum. Do you have any good suggestions?] Su Ziqin felt that the other person was knowledgeable and full of ideas.
Many people thought of selling things on the forum, but this person not only made the posts look great but also got her permission beforehand.
The posts she made were completely different from ordinary flea market posts. The book pictures were exquisite, and there were different packages, as well as things like cash back for a good review and free shipping to your home.
[12138: Uh… Forum owner, I don’t know about that, but a few of my buyers told me that they usually have to go out to buy things, and that online shopping gave them a new and different experience.]
[Studier: Online shopping?] Su Ziqin’s heart was filled with joy when she saw the new term pop up on the screen. Why didn’t I think of that? It seemed she would have to ask Fu Qingyun for some money.
[Studier: Thank you for your suggestion.] She then went offline.
Fu Qingyun closed the interface. [She probably has the concept of an e-commerce model now.]
12138: [Our guess was right. This indirect method won’t trigger the plot’s resistance.]
[It’s just that this little fox’s brain isn’t very good. She’s so focused on playing little tricks.]
Even though they hadn’t seen each other in the past few days, Su Ziqin didn’t forget to make her presence known in front of Fu Qingyun. She would either order flowers to be delivered near the company or have the nearby coffee shop send afternoon tea. The entire company was saying that the bigshot’s wife was very generous.
This extravagant behavior was well-liked by her colleagues, and of course, she was using Fu Qingyun’s card.
[The little villain has made progress. She finished her professional exam in fifteen minutes, even though it was a two-hour exam.]
12138 now felt that Su Ziqin was like its own daughter. Unfortunately, Fu Qingyun didn’t think so.
[The protagonist is about to rise, and she still needs me to remind her about something as small as forum reform. She can’t even fix a simple line of code.]
Fu Qingyun covered her face, thinking about the time she went to see Su Ziqin coding at night. A piece of code that would have only taken her five minutes to write, Su Ziqin was stuck on a small detail for more than two hours.
[I’m going to go to the aquarium and get a dolphin. At least a dolphin with paws would be better than her.]
12138… [Bigshot, a dolphin’s brain is developed to 20%. Su Ziqin is just a normal person.]
Fu Qingyun: [Let’s not talk about her. We need to find a way to deal with the protagonist. Are there any good web dramas recently?]
12138: [You mean, we’ll compete against the protagonist?]
[Or…] Fu Qingyun’s eyes narrowed slightly, [What role did the protagonist get famous for?] She didn’t know the plot as well as 12138 did, having only received a general summary of the story.
[She played a popular supporting role as a demoness. The character was likable, so she became famous.]
Fu Qingyun’s eyes lit up. She reopened her computer and looked at the information on the web drama. It was a low-budget fantasy drama.
It had to be said that the protagonist’s character was not very likable, while the supporting character’s role was more heartwarming.
[Where’s the protagonist? Has she joined the cast?]
12138: [Not yet. The director is holding auditions at the Art University. Both the male and female leads are there. The female lead hasn’t been cast yet. It’ll probably be another week or so.]
Fu Qingyun didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence. She immediately had an idea.
She pressed the call button on her desk. “Han Yu, go to Star Entertainment and pick out a few Omegas. They should be female, beautiful, and have that innocent-yet-seductive vibe.”
Han Yu received the message, and her hands didn’t know where to go. “Yes… Boss.”
With a feeling of unease, Han Yu went downstairs. Seeing that no one was around, Han Yu took out her phone and made a call.
“Hello.” The call was connected successfully.
“Boss’s wife, the boss asked me to go to the entertainment company to find a few Omegas. She also wants them to be the innocent-yet-seductive type.” As an upright person, Han Yu had also been receiving Su Ziqin’s generous afternoon teas.
Just a few days ago, Han Yu became Su Ziqin’s spy. If there was anything even slightly off in the office, Han Yu would tell Su Ziqin about it.
The boss’s reputation wasn’t very good before. She was a little ugly, a little fierce, and a little bit of a sycophant. Now that she had finally married an Omega, she couldn’t go astray.
“Innocent-yet-seductive?” Su Ziqin’s eyes gradually became dangerous. You scumbag woman, you act so proper in front of me, but in the end, you still like that kind of style from your past life.
I must have been blind to think this scumbag had changed!
“When will the people be sent?” She looked at the time. The next exam was in half an hour. At her current speed, she could finish the exam questions in half an hour.
“Probably in an hour.”
“You go find the people for her. Stall for a bit. I’ll try to get there in an hour and a half.”
“Okay, okay, okay.” Han Yu replied.
After the call ended, Han Yu told herself that she wasn’t betraying her boss; she was protecting her boss’s happiness.
“Yes, there are a few good actors. I’m personally willing to invest a part of it for them.” Fu Qingyun, who was on the phone with the director, had no idea what kind of person Han Yu and Su Ziqin had made her out to be.
“Oh, President Fu, you’re too kind.” The director was ecstatic when he heard that there was money coming in, and it wasn’t under Yunshan’s name.
At that time, Huijing had written in the contract that it could only accept personal investments, not money from investment companies. Although Huijing had invested a lot, who would complain about having too much money?
And what Fu Qingyun gave wasn’t a small amount. “President Fu, should I set up an audition, or do you have a time for me to go to the actors?”
He was a director, yet he was willing to make a special trip to hold an audition, which showed that the money Fu Qingyun gave was very generous.
“No problem. Is tonight a good time for you?”
“Yes, it is. Let’s make it at 7:00 PM at the Charm Palace. How does that sound?” The director’s voice was a little sleazy.
Fu Qingyun had never heard of this restaurant’s name. She thought it was some high-class hotel, so she just said “good” and hung up.
[Bigshot, Charm Palace isn’t a decent place.] 12138 sent the information about Charm Palace to Fu Qingyun’s mind.
Fu Qingyun was a little suspicious. [The prices are not low. This director doesn’t look like he has such a high-spending lifestyle.]
[Well, you’re just going to talk about business. Just be careful of the dirty things there.]
[What? Is it haunted?] Fu Qingyun asked.
12138… [I didn’t mean…]
“Boss.” Han Yu knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
Han Yu walked in with three beautiful Omegas. “Boss, I brought the people.”
The three Omegas had never seen such a beautiful Alpha before. Their faces turned red, and they looked down. On the way here, they were all very nervous, thinking that they were going to be taken advantage of.
Now that they saw the boss of Yunshan, they didn’t mind being taken advantage of.
Fu Qingyun went up and looked at the three of them. They were all the same type of Omega, just a little shy.
“The three of you will come with me to see the director for an audition tonight. Don’t be too nervous. Just do your best.”
After hearing this, the already nervous Han Yu became even more so. Oh no, I misunderstood the boss. She was about to call the boss’s wife to explain.
A soft and wronged voice came into the office. “Sister Fu, why are you looking for other Omegas?”
Han Yu’s heart sank. Oh no!
