After Transmigrating as a Scumbag Alpha, the Reborn Omega Always Wants to Cling (GL) - Chapter 8
“How much money are you asking for?” The short-haired woman’s sharp, heroic brows hadn’t relaxed since she entered the room. Dressed in a business suit that accentuated her broad shoulders and narrow waist, she exuded a powerful aura. At this moment, she frowned and angrily questioned the person opposite her.
“The first payment… needs to be five million.” The male Beta said cautiously. He had never expected that the investor coming to negotiate would be Jing City’s fierce tiger, Li Zhengyin. In five years, Orca Capital had become Jing City’s number one firm, all thanks to this sharp Alpha’s methods.
“Heh,” Li Zhengyin felt as if she had heard a joke. She shook her head, stood up, and irritably tugged at her tie.
At this moment, Li Zhengyin’s dissatisfaction with Qin Renfeng reached its peak. Not only had he made her stand up a blind date to discuss such a terrible project, but the other party was also asking for an exorbitant amount.
“Mr. Huang, you must be kidding,” she sneered. Her sharp demeanor made Mr. Huang, a Beta, a little breathless.
“Then… maybe a little less?” Even though the weather was so hot, he felt a little cold.
Li Zhengyin shook her head. “This isn’t about the money.” It’s that your project has a problem! She didn’t say the second half of the sentence.
She understood a little that this was Qin Renfeng deliberately trying to cause her trouble.
“Mr. Huang, to be frank, I’m not interested in your project.”
Her bluntness made Mr. Huang’s face turn a little pale. “Is that a good thing to say, Ms. Li? Old house renovations are very popular now, and many people have made money.”
“In this world, there aren’t many things that are so easy to make money from. You’re not the first person to eat the crab, so why do you think you won’t get poisoned?” With that, Li Zhengyin stopped talking to him, picked up her briefcase, and walked out the door.
The project office was in a spacious courtyard in the old residential area, where cars could drive directly in. Li Zhengyin opened the car door, and a blast of hot air hit her.
“Unbelievable.” The sun was getting fierce, and the temperature inside the car was not suitable for getting in immediately. “Qin Renfeng is such a jerk.”
After a while, the temperature inside the car was not much different from the outside. Li Zhengyin took off her suit jacket and threw it into the car. “This awful weather is not suitable for a blind date, and even less for talking nonsense,” Li Zhengyin complained irritably.
She sat in the driver’s seat and was about to close the door when a fair, slender hand rested on the car door.
“It seems Mr. Li’s negotiation didn’t go well.” The cool voice carried no emotion. Li Zhengyin followed the sound to look at the beautiful woman who had suddenly appeared.
Although her tone was cool, Li Zhengyin raised an eyebrow and sized her up. “Beautiful, which company are you from?” She was very pretty, a shame she was an Alpha, but that wasn’t necessarily a dealbreaker.
“Fir Capital, Fu Qingyun.”
“Little CEO Fu?” Li Zhengyin narrowed her eyes, examining the beauty in front of her. “Tsk, Little CEO Fu is not quite like the rumors.”
Seeing her disbelief, Fu Qingyun took out a business card and handed it over. “You said yourself they are just rumors.”
Li Zhengyin took the business card, and when she saw the name, she raised an eyebrow. “Is there something you need, Little CEO Fu?”
“I’m just asking how Ms. Li’s chat went today.”
Li Zhengyin curved her lips into a casual smile. “What, is Fir Capital also interested in this lousy project?”
“Compared to that, isn’t Ms. Li more interesting?” Fu Qingyun shook her head, her ink-black eyes fixed on Li Zhengyin’s face.
Li Zhengyin let out a laugh, a playful thought forming in her mind. “Little CEO Fu, two Alphas can get sick.”
As she spoke, she got out of the car and moved closer to Fu Qingyun. “But for a beauty like Little CEO Fu, as long as you don’t mind being a ‘pillow princess’, I won’t lose out.”
Fu Qingyun replied, “Would that make Ms. Li switch companies?”
12138… [Bigshot, do you know what a ‘pillow princess’ means?]
[I know.] As if she couldn’t understand that this person was just joking?
12138… Then why are you so serious about it? [Bigshot, this is cheating!]
[I’m not planning to cheat.]
Li Zhengyin originally wanted to make a joke. When she heard Fu Qingyun’s words, she understood that the other party was here to poach her from Orca Capital.
Li Zhengyin’s playful mood deepened. She grabbed Fu Qingyun’s slender wrist, turned her around, and pressed her against the car door.
“Little CEO Fu, wouldn’t that be a big sacrifice for you?” Li Zhengyin pinned Fu Qingyun’s hands against the car door and leaned in, her ambiguous and dominant tone pressing against Fu Qingyun’s ear.
The two were very close. Li Zhengyin had a typical Alpha body, a few inches taller than Fu Qingyun even in heels.
“You’re joking, Ms. Li.” With that, Fu Qingyun pushed her away. “I don’t think Ms. Li is really interested in Alphas.”
“That’s different,” Li Zhengyin stepped forward and wrapped her large hand around Fu Qingyun’s slender waist. “Who told you to be so beautiful, Little CEO Fu?”
“Will Ms. Li switch companies?” Fu Qingyun asked indifferently.
Li Zhengyin hadn’t expected Fu Qingyun to be so persistent even in this situation. Her serious and detached demeanor made her even more intriguing.
“Will Little CEO Fu be my pillow princess?”
Fu Qingyun gave her an eye roll. “Ms. Li, let’s be straightforward. Are you really happy at Orca Capital?”
Li Zhengyin’s gaze became dangerous. “Your information is quite good, Little CEO Fu.”
She had worked at Orca Capital for five years. Just when she was about to become a partner, Qin Renfeng was parachuted in as CEO, and he took 51% of the company’s shares, constantly suppressing her.
During this time, Li Zhengyin was in a miserable situation, and almost all of her projects died within a month.
“If you’re unhappy, why not switch to another investment bank?” Seeing this, Fu Qingyun pressed her advantage.
Li Zhengyin sneered, tightening her grip and saying in an unfriendly tone, “You’re very concerned about me, Little CEO Fu.”
Fu Qingyun pulled her hand away and created some distance between them. “Ms. Li can give it some thought.”
“I’m about to become a partner,” Li Zhengyin said seriously.
“A partnership with a CEO who has complete control over the company… is that interesting to work for?” Fu Qingyun’s words were to the point.
This kind of situation was rare in an investment bank. It was clear that Qin Renfeng was ambitious and wanted to pressure Li Zhengyin into working for him.
“Then why do you think you can convince me to join Fir Capital?” Li Zhengyin laughed. It was great to talk romance with a beauty, but when it came to business, she wasn’t as interested.
Fu Qingyun tilted her head. “Fir Capital should be the best choice for you right now, Ms. Li.”
The sun was getting hotter. Li Zhengyin fanned herself with her right hand. “Little CEO Fu, it’s too hot…” We should probably stop for now.
“Then let’s find a different place to talk properly about your current situation, Ms. Li, and what Fir Capital can offer you.”
Li Zhengyin… I don’t know what to do with you.
“Heh? Little CEO Fu, to be honest, my blind date fell through today, and I’m not in a good mood. How about you accompany me to a nearby mall for a bit? We can get to know each other better.”
It sounded like a flirty tone, but Fu Qingyun knew that Li Zhengyin had compromised.
“Then, would I have the honor of buying you a cup of coffee, Ms. Li?” Fu Qingyun knew that dealing with Li Zhengyin wouldn’t be that simple, but the fact that she was willing to continue talking meant there was still a chance.
“Yes, a beauty’s invitation? Who would dare refuse?” With that, she turned to open the passenger-side door.
Fu Qingyun waved her hand when she saw this. “I drove my own car.”
“Tsk, don’t be like that. Give me a chance, Little CEO Fu. It’s the first time I’ve had a beauty as a passenger.”
Fu Qingyun frowned at Li Zhengyin’s flashy car. The retro green color covered the original white. “Your car is too flashy, I don’t deserve it.”
With that, she turned to get into her own car. Li Zhengyin grabbed her hand. “Little CEO Fu, is this how you poach people?”
“I think I’m being very sincere.” Fu Qingyun pulled her hand back, not wanting to get into her car.
“Tsk, I can’t see it. In that case, let’s talk another time.” Li Zhengyin waved her hand and was about to leave. She had been led on like a monkey on a Sunday, and she was getting a little impatient.
Seeing this, Fu Qingyun took two steps forward and got into the passenger seat. There weren’t many opportunities to win over Jing City’s tiger, and Fu Qingyun didn’t want to miss this chance so easily.
Li Zhengyin chuckled, opened the car door, and got in. She then eagerly buckled Fu Qingyun’s seatbelt.
“Let’s go, Little~ CEO~ Fu~.” After the flirtatious words, Li Zhengyin pulled off her tie, unbuttoned the top two buttons of her collar, and pulled the collar wide open, revealing her sexy collarbone.
[This person is so ostentatious.] 12138 couldn’t help but complain.
Fu Qingyun rested her head on her hand, which was propped on the car window. [She’s faking it.]
[She’s faking it, but she’s definitely interested in you. What if she flirts with you again and asks you to be her pillow princess?]
[She won’t.] Fu Qingyun denied.
[How do you…]
“By the way, Ms. Li, I’m married,” Fu Qingyun said softly.
Li Zhengyin’s hand, which was on the AC button, paused. “Then why did you…” She was silent for a moment, remembering that she was also trying to tease the other person.
“Heh, Little CEO Fu, my apologies,” Li Zhengyin apologized for her rude behavior. She didn’t deny that she was a little interested in Fu Qingyun, but that didn’t mean she would get involved in someone else’s marriage.
So, any romantic feelings she had instantly vanished. Besides, a pair of Alphas really can get sick.
Li Zhengyin then coughed awkwardly. “I was just joking with you, Little CEO Fu.”
“I know,” Fu Qingyun turned her head to look at her. “I was also just joking with you, Ms. Li.”
“You’re married and you’re still making jokes like that with me?” Li Zhengyin chuckled.
Fu Qingyun turned her head to look out the window. “Weren’t you the one who started joking, Ms. Li? I was just playing along because you seemed to be having fun. After all, I’m the one trying to get you to join Fir Capital, aren’t I?”
Li Zhengyin was a little speechless. This person was so cunning. If Fu Qingyun hadn’t played along, she probably wouldn’t have agreed to her invitation.
“No wonder Little CEO Fu said you were sincere?” Thinking this, Li Zhengyin shook her head in admiration.
“Mm, completely sincere.”
“Alright. I have nothing to do on Sunday anyway, so I have a whole afternoon to chat with Little CEO Fu.” Her blind date had fallen through, and her projects were being blocked by Qin Renfeng. She felt like an employee at a salt factory, salty (bored) and at a loss.
The car drove out of the courtyard, and the atmosphere between them was no longer as awkward. But to Su Ziqin, who was hiding in her small sports car in an alleyway, it was a completely different story.
“Fu Qingyun got into an Alpha’s car?” Su Ziqin’s eyebrows were so furrowed they could kill a fly.
Thinking back to all of Fu Qingyun’s past behavior, “Could Fu Qingyun be a lesbian Alpha?”
A flash of inspiration hit Su Ziqin’s head. It wasn’t impossible. In her past life, she hadn’t had any contact with any Omegas other than Su Yingying.
“And a closeted one?” Su Ziqin covered her mouth in shock. “No wonder.”
“She’s playing quite a game, isn’t she?” Su Yingying probably doesn’t even know she’s Fu Qingyun’s shield.
“If I catch Fu Qingyun cheating with an Alpha…” Her amber eyes flickered, and a mischievous idea formed in her mind.
But then, the b*tch’s figure and face from her memories—cold yet alluring—surfaced in her mind. Su Ziqin immediately shook her head, driving the absurd thought away.
“What am I thinking?” This doesn’t align with her plan. “I’ll see if you’re really a lesbian Alpha. Even if you are, I’ll straighten you out!”
Besides, she hadn’t even gotten her hands on the b*tch’s body yet. How could she let some random Alpha on the outside get her?
