After Transmigrating as the Scumbag Alpha Supporting Character, I Captured the Female Lead (GL) - Chapter 6
It was the lily fragrance from Su Ruoning’s body.
Su Yao’s eyelashes gently trembled. She pushed away the approaching Rong Yang, distancing herself from her, and looked directly at her: “If you want to play games, go play far away. Don’t do it in the Su Residence. Everyone here knows our relationship.”
Rong Yang was slightly stunned.
Play what?
What is the meaning of the female lead’s sudden, nonsensical remark?
Wait, can’t I fish in the Su Residence?
Su Yao didn’t wait for her to say anything and left immediately.
She couldn’t get away.
Rong Yang grabbed her arm:
“Explain yourself clearly. What do you mean by ‘don’t play in the Su Residence’?”
“The literal meaning,” Su Yao’s gaze was cold.
Rong Yang scrutinized Su Yao with a judgmental look, her eyes contemptuous:
“Don’t use your baseless imaginings to guess my thoughts. For me, making a mere Su Residence vanish from the capital is very simple.”
Su Yao’s lips pressed into a straight line, her eyes full of disgust. She sneered:
“Why I have these imaginings, does the Princess truly not know the reason?”
“How despicable and vile your actions are today, does the Princess truly not know?”
The more she spoke, the heavier her voice became, each word slamming into Rong Yang’s heart.
“Are you insane?” Rong Yang gritted her teeth: “I brought you back to the Su Residence. Despicable and vile?“
“Have I been too kind to you lately, making you forget your own status?”
“If you don’t want to be here, we can return to the residence immediately, Princess Consort!” Rong Yang emphasized the last two words particularly hard.
“Must I say it directly?” Su Yao pulled away the arm she was grasping: “You have the scent of another woman on you. Can’t you smell it?”
Ah? Scent?
The book had mentioned that when a Qianyuan (Alpha) and a Kunze (Omega) have intimacy, they each release their pheromones to achieve pleasure.
Rong Yang was unprecedentedly bewildered. The female lead thinks I’m messing around with another woman here in the Su Residence!?
Because she wasn’t a native Qianyuan, she wasn’t very sensitive to scents. She didn’t realize that a trace of foreign fragrance was…
“If you want to find someone, you can go outside and find them, or have your maid send them to the Splendid Hall. Since you chose to come here, since you want to pretend, then please keep up the pretense completely!”
“Silence!” Rong Yang gritted her teeth. She was absolutely not that kind of person.
“If you’ve gone mad, then go back to the Fanghua Palace. Don’t disgust me here. I wouldn’t look twice at the women in the Su Residence,” Rong Yang glared at her coldly, her red lips barely moving: “You think too highly of your Su Residence.”
“The scent you’re talking about is because the Second Miss of the Su Residence, coincidentally and inevitably, fell right in front of me as I passed through the garden, and I kindly gave her a hand…”
Rong Yang sneered: “Why don’t you go and ask her why she fell in front of me?”
Su Yao tightly pressed her lips together, realizing she had been a bit rash, and shouldn’t have been so impulsive: “Her business has nothing to do with me.”
“Is this the family education of the Su Residence?” Rong Yang said sarcastically.
The atmosphere fell into a deadlock; even the surface of the pond became utterly silent.
Until the chief stewardess appeared: “Princess, Princess Consort, lunch is ready. My lady asks me to invite you over.”
Rong Yang subtly let out a sigh of relief.
She turned around and looked up, only to find Chunxi, Xia Qing, and Lanxin standing far away…
Should I tell them next time that if the Princess Consort is around, they shouldn’t stand so far away? Otherwise, if something happens, how will they get here in time to save me…
The main hall was bustling until Rong Yang appeared, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.
Only after seeing Rong Yang take her seat did the others dare to sit down.
Su Lie cleared his throat and said: “Begin the meal.”
Chunxi stood by to serve Rong Yang’s food.
She ate a few symbolic bites, then put down her chopsticks.
Seeing Rong Yang put down her chopsticks, Su Lie and Su Furen quickly did the same.
“Is the food not to your taste?” Su Furen asked.
“I’m full,” Rong Yang said lightly.
Su Furen gently nudged Su Yao with her elbow, signaling her to serve Rong Yang some food.
Su Yao’s expression turned slightly unpleasant, but facing her mother’s burning, expectant gaze, Su Yao still picked up her chopsticks.
She served a piece of golden jade tofu to Rong Yang.
Rong Yang was surprised to see the female lead suddenly serving her food and looked at Su Yao with confusion.
Su Yao lowered her eyes and did not respond to her.
Rong Yang picked up her chopsticks and, under everyone’s gaze, ate the piece of tofu.
Seeing this, everyone exchanged a smile. An older relative commented:
“The Princess and Princess Consort respect each other like guests and are full of affection. It is truly enviable.”
Hearing this, both Rong Yang and Su Yao felt utterly uncomfortable.
“You may enjoy the rest of your meal,” Rong Yang said, rising from the table.
Everyone stood up to salute and send Rong Yang off respectfully.
Su Yao looked up, catching a glimpse of Rong Yang’s retreating back, then looked at her empty plate, lost in thought for a moment.
After lunch, Su Furen eagerly pulled Su Yao back to her room, saying:
“How have you been these past two years?”
She looked intently at Su Yao, afraid of missing even the slightest sign of distress.
Su Yao smiled and hugged Su Furen, putting her sadness behind her, and said lightly:
“Everything is fine. It’s just that the Princess is always like this usually. As you can see, she has no ill will…”
Su Furen held her in her arms, a mix of emotions churning in her heart. She had raised her for seventeen years and worried about her for seventeen years, only for one imperial decree to separate her daughter from them in the blink of an eye.
“Silly child, all Mother wants is for you to live well. If you are not living well, even the Royal Family is nothing to us.”
“Mother, I am well. See? I am right here in front of you,” Su Yao leaned her face against Su Furen’s shoulder.
Su Yao and Su Furen stayed in the room all afternoon.
Rong Yang stayed in the study on the other side all afternoon.
No one came to disturb Rong Yang, and no one dared to disturb Rong Yang. Her status destined her to be lonely.
I wonder how the female lead’s reunion with her family went?
She had changed the plot trajectory again. In the original book, the female lead’s return to the Su Residence happened six months later. Rong Yang brought it forward by half a year.
But so far, she hadn’t received any punishment. She was only told not to change her persona, not that she couldn’t change the plot. Besides, if she didn’t change the plot, how could she change the female lead’s perspective?
As long as the general direction is correct, that’s fine, Rong Yang comforted herself.
This time, she hadn’t done anything wrong. She had obediently sent the female lead home…
It shouldn’t be a capital offense…
Rong Yang thought this to herself…
So, if the female lead spares me, what will happen to me?
Return to life?
In the third year of her cancer in the hospital, her parents became pregnant and soon after gave birth to a healthy little sister.
From then on, she distinctly felt her parents’ love withdrawing and the world growing colder.
What should I do after being resurrected?
Su Lie and Su Furen hadn’t seen Su Yao for so long that they forgot the time and strongly urged them to stay overnight and return tomorrow.
Rong Yang saw that Su Yao did not object and knew she wanted to stay. It made no difference where she stayed, so she coldly agreed.
Everything for the sake of lowering the female lead’s hatred value!
As night fell, the crescent moon hung high in the distance, and countless stars paved a magnificent, beautiful night sky.
In the courtyard of the Plum Garden, Rong Yang lay on a recliner, quietly enjoying the starry sky.
The nights in the hospital were always hazy; it was difficult to see any stars.
Su Yao arrived at the Plum Garden. It still looked the same as before she married, but now there was a person who shouldn’t be here in the courtyard.
Hearing footsteps, Rong Yang turned her head, looked up, and was stunned. Su Yao!
Didn’t they say I would be staying here alone?
Does the female lead plan to stay here tonight too?
This is only one bedchamber!
Su Yao saw the question in Rong Yang’s expression: “This is my courtyard…”
She had intended to stay in her mother’s room tonight, using the excuse of missing her, but her father was a little hesitant: “We have already neglected the Princess all day. I fear she might be displeased and blame you when you return…”
After being dismissed a few times and fearing her mother would become suspicious, Su Yao had to bite the bullet and come here.
Rong Yang’s eyes darkened. This plot development is a bit outlandish…
Lanxin brought hot water and served Su Yao as she bathed.
“Bring an extra quilt later.”
“Yes, Miss.” Lanxin added: “Miss, I will keep watch outside tonight. Just call me if you need anything.”
“You’ve had a tiring day, rest early. I’ll sleep on the soft couch. Don’t worry.”
Lanxin wanted to say more, but seeing Su Yao’s resolute expression, she silenced herself.
Rong Yang got tired of stargazing outside. She didn’t want to go into the bedchamber, but she had to. She dismissed Chunxi and Xia Qing to rest and entered the room.
Wisps of smoke rose from the incense burner on the table. The room was filled with a faint fragrance. It was hard to tell if it was the female lead’s scent or the burner’s incense.
Su Yao was half-reclining on the soft couch, wrapped in a loose, light-colored undergarment, revealing the long, swan-like curve of her neck. Why is she still so thin?
She would have to instruct Imperial Physician Li to focus on dietary supplements once they returned to the residence.
Although Rong Yang also liked women, given that this was the female lead who might torture her half to death later, despite being in the same room, she didn’t dare to have any improper thoughts. After all, the female lead belonged to another female lead.
Rong Yang lowered the bed curtains and lay flat on the bed.
She glanced sideways at the person on the soft couch not far away. At least she has some self-awareness.
Soon, Rong Yang felt sleepy. Just as she was half-asleep, she suddenly heard a rustling sound outside.
Su Yao heard it too. The sound seemed to be getting closer to the bed.
She snapped back to attention and almost subconsciously got up, holding her quilt and heading toward the bed where Rong Yang was sleeping.
She only knew one thing right now: she had gone this far with the pretense, and she absolutely could not be discovered, especially not by her mother and father, or the residence would likely be in chaos tomorrow.
Almost simultaneously, the moment the paper window was punctured, Su Yao was already on the bed.
Because the speed was too fast, Su Yao lost her balance and was about to fall onto the bed. Rong Yang instinctively grabbed her, and she crashed right into Rong Yang’s arms.
Su Yao’s long eyelashes trembled. The skin on her neck was burning hot, and the body holding her was also radiating heat.
Her mind was a vast, snowy blank…
Rong Yang’s gaze fell upon the person in her arms, and she asked:
“What are you trying to do?”
“Someone is peeking. I don’t want today’s efforts to go to waste,” Su Yao’s throat felt hot, and she spoke softly.
In the ambiguous posture, at such close proximity:
“Su Yao, you are being presumptuous.”
Warm breath and exhaled heat enveloped her completely.
This was their first intimate contact in two years.
Su Yao suddenly felt flustered. Fearing she might draw attention from the people outside, she pushed away the person holding her, creating distance.
Pushed away like that, Rong Yang met Su Yao’s icy glare, which seemed ready to slaughter her. A chill ran down her spine.
She sheepishly shifted toward the edge of the bed. She’s the one who took my bed, why am I feeling guilty?
The rustling sounds from outside came again.
Rong Yang sat up. Her loose clothing revealed her delicate collarbone, and even a glimpse of the area further down…
With a long, slender finger, she gently pulled back a section of the curtain. Her dark eyes, cold and stern, looked toward the paper window about to be pierced again.
She casually picked up an unknown small object placed next to the headboard and threw it at that spot.
“Get lost!” Icy anger accompanied the object as it was hurled.
A cry of pain came from outside the window, followed by the sound of a stone dropping. It sounded like they had twisted their ankle.
Rong Yang saw that the person was gone and signaled to Su Yao that she could get down.
With this little interruption, Su Yao didn’t dare risk going back to the soft couch. After all, the window paper had been pierced. If someone really discovered something, how would she explain it to her parents?
“Half the bed for each of us,” Su Yao said coldly.
“Su Yao, don’t go too far. This Princess doesn’t like sharing a bed with others,” Rong Yang frowned. She was afraid of waking up tomorrow morning missing a limb.
“Or you sleep on the soft couch.”
