After Transmigrating as the Villain Alpha, I Marked the Reborn Supporting Female Omega (GL) - Chapter 25.2

The two glass shards were thrown into the waste container. Fortunately, the wound was not large.

When Tang Mufeng and the others arrived, Liang Manqing had already helped Qin Qin into the car.

Lin Mian was full of concern: “Qin Qin, are you okay?”

Qin Qin felt sick to her stomach. She had never found Lin Mian to be so hypocritical. She looked at Lin Mian and said: “You deliberately pressed my hand into the glass shards.”

Lin Mian panicked internally and played pitiful: “I didn’t do it on purpose. I thought you would struggle a bit, I didn’t expect you to press your hand straight into it.”

Lin Mian’s statement still implied that it was Qin Qin’s fault for not being careful.

Liang Manqing’s gaze swept over Lin Mian’s panicked face. She knew Lin Mian was lying.

Director Tang Mufeng stepped in: “The filming just started; let’s hope for good fortune, everyone. Let’s not have conflicts. Qin Qin’s performance in this scene was great, and I think adding the glass shards will make the plot more complete. It’s all for the sake of a better production.”

Liang Manqing sneered: “Can ill-intentioned actors be allowed to harm others freely just for the sake of the show?”

Lin Mian bit her lip, looking disgruntled: “Liang Manqing, are you calling me ill-intentioned?”

Seeing Liang Manqing defend Qin Qin so fiercely, Lin Mian felt extremely annoyed.

Liang Manqing’s cold eyes fixed on Lin Mian: “You know whether it was you or not. I’m not touching you now out of respect for Xia Jun. If there’s a next time, don’t blame me for being unkind.”

Instinct told Liang Manqing that the Lin Mian in front of her was not the original female lead.

Even if the original female lead deviated from her personality, she wouldn’t be this cruel and petty.

If the Lin Mian in front of her wasn’t the real Lin Mian, where was the real Lin Mian?

If that were the case, Liang Manqing thought there was no need to be polite to Lin Mian. However, Lin Mian’s chances of achieving a happily-ever-after (HE) with Jiang Hejing seemed even greater now.

The conversation with Xia Jun during the red carpet show further confirmed that the Lin Mian in front of her was not the original female lead.

Xia Jun tested Lin Mian and found that she knew many people well. She also remembered everything that happened between them. Xia Jun was certain that Lin Mian had only changed personality.

But Liang Manqing considered this: someone remembers everything, but their personality has completely changed. What was strange was that Lin Mian was completely deviating from the plot of the book. Why?

After thinking all this through, Liang Manqing felt a faint sense of dread.

Tang Mufeng pressed his hands down in the air: “We won’t dwell on Lin Mian’s mistake for now, but Qin Qin damaged the entire row of experiment samples on the table. Those are needed for later filming. CEO Liang, you might need to come with me to assess the damage.”

Qin Qin, nestled weakly in the back seat of the car, let out a hollow laugh: “Director Tang, if you review the footage, you’ll see who deviated from the rehearsal and deliberately pushed me to cause the damage.”

Lab equipment was valuable, and breaking even one piece would cost a fortune to replace.

Tang Mufeng recalled the filming footage and his gaze suddenly turned toward Lin Mian.

Lin Mian shrunk back: “Director Tang, please listen to me…”

The first day of filming was going poorly. Qin Qin leaned against the car window, unable to figure out what was wrong with Lin Mian that made her change like this.

The Lin Mian from the previous life was kind and sincere. Even when Qin Qin treated her badly until the very end, Lin Mian still smiled.

Why would she suddenly change, becoming terrifying, becoming someone Qin Qin feared?

Back at the Liang house, Liang Manqing carried the soaked Qin Qin upstairs.

Aunt Tao saw the miserable Qin Qin and felt heartbroken: “Manqing, what happened to Xiao Qin?”

Liang Manqing: “She got soaked in the rain. Aunt Tao, please make Qin Qin a bowl of ginger soup.”

Aunt Tao immediately agreed and went to the kitchen to cut ginger.

Inside the room, Liang Manqing closed the door and found clothes for Qin Qin: “Go take a shower first.”

Qin Qin’s dress was soaked and clung to her body, and water dripped onto the floor, creating a puddle.

Liang Manqing went out to check on Aunt Tao’s ginger soup. When she returned, she saw Qin Qin still wearing her wet clothes.

“Why haven’t you gone to shower? You’ll catch a cold soon.”

Qin Qin extended her bandaged hand and sniffled: “My hand is injured. I can’t wash myself.”

Liang Manqing sighed, stood behind her, and unzipped the dress. Qin Qin’s snowy white back was exposed, and her waistline was smooth.

Qin Qin curled her fair toes: “Thank you for today.”

Liang Manqing asked softly: “Does your hand still hurt?”

“A little bit.” Qin Qin’s hand injury wasn’t severe. The pain lessened significantly after the glass shards were removed, so she wasn’t being overly delicate.

Liang Manqing removed all the wet clothes from the Omega and tightly wrapped Qin Qin in a bathrobe: “In the future, don’t endure pain when you’re injured or sick, like you did today. Do you understand?”

Qin Qin obediently nodded, tilted her chin up, and spoke in a spoiled voice: “Then, since I’m injured and sick today, can I ask Dr. Liang for treatment?”

“What?” Liang Manqing stuttered: “Are you referring to physical relief?”

“Mhm…” Qin Qin put her learning to immediate use, reaching out with both hands to hug Liang Manqing’s firm waist: “You just said I don’t have to endure it.”

They seemed to be talking about two different things.

Liang Manqing’s arms hung slightly, and she paused: “You’re injured today…”

Qin Qin gently lifted her head, her eyes slightly red: “It’s because I’m injured that I need Dr. Liang.”

The Omega was both obedient and soft. Her frail body pressed against her felt a little warm.

Qin Qin rubbed her cheek against Liang Manqing’s neck, asking softly and sweetly: “Sister, is treatment really not allowed tonight?”

The Omega was hugging her. Liang Manqing leaned against the cool wall. After a few seconds of contemplation, she compromised: “Then which treatment method do you want to use?”

“The first one, but…” Qin Qin leaned close to Liang Manqing’s ear and suggested softly: “But Dr. Liang, the treatment will be more effective if you treat me with skin-to-skin contact.”

The warm breath in her ear made Liang Manqing’s mind go blank. Her neck instantly flushed crimson.

Liang Manqing still hadn’t fully adjusted to the doctor role. When the Omega mentioned “treatment,” she couldn’t help but be stunned.

Qin Qin laughed at Liang Manqing’s dazed expression: “Sister, I’m going to take a shower now.”

Liang Manqing’s bathroom had a large Jacuzzi, which filled quickly with hot water.

Qin Qin’s one injured hand made showering difficult. She lay in the tub, soaking in the bath. After a comfortable wash, the gauze on her hand was still dry, having avoided the water.

After showering, Qin Qin wrapped herself in a loose bathrobe and went out. Liang Manqing was not in the room.

The gentle clink of a porcelain bowl came from the kitchen downstairs.

Liang Manqing was carefully blowing on a bowl of hot ginger soup to cool it. She turned and saw Qin Qin coming down from upstairs: “Qin Qin, come here and drink your ginger soup.”

With ginger soup and brown sugar, the spicy taste was reduced, and the flavor was sweet.

Qin Qin’s rosy lips rested on the edge of the white porcelain bowl as she sipped. After finishing the ginger soup, her body was warm.

“It tastes good. Thank you, Sister.”

Qin Qin licked her lips. The water droplet on her lip disappeared, leaving a moist trace.

Liang Manqing’s gaze swept over her lips, and her voice turned hoarse: “Now that you’ve finished, go to sleep. The family doctor will come to change your dressing tomorrow morning.”

Aunt Tao went to sleep after cooking the ginger soup. Liang Manqing stayed to tidy up. The Alpha’s sleeves were rolled up to her wrists, exposing her fair, long forearms. Her clearly defined hands were washing the porcelain bowl.

Qin Qin slowly walked into the kitchen and waited beside Liang Manqing until she was done.

Wiping her hands dry, Liang Manqing turned to look at Qin Qin’s reluctant expression and asked: “Why aren’t you going to sleep? You have filming tomorrow.”

It seemed Liang Manqing hadn’t taken what she said seriously. Qin Qin tugged at Liang Manqing’s sleeve: “Sister, aren’t you going to keep me company?”

The Omega was insistent about the pheromone treatment, but Liang Manqing could tell that Qin Qin’s pheromone disorder wouldn’t necessarily flare up every night.

Liang Manqing led Qin Qin by the hand into the room and tucked her into bed: “Since you’re injured tonight, please sleep well, okay?”

“Sister… are you unwilling?” Qin Qin lowered her dark lashes, burying the side of her face into the soft pillow: “Do you not like me anymore?”

Does Liang Manqing still think the “white moonlight” is best and is unwilling to even spare comfort to the substitute?

Omegas are extremely sensitive to emotions. Liang Manqing gently stroked Qin Qin’s eyebrow, patiently explaining: “Dr. Xu also said that relief should be appropriate. When it’s not severe, enduring it is okay. Otherwise, I worry you will become addicted. I don’t dislike you.”

In the previous life, the pheromone disorder was Qin Qin’s greatest fear and worry. Of course, Qin Qin had to hold tightly to Liang Manqing.

“Alright, if Dr. Xu said so, then I’ll endure it.”

Qin Qin closed her eyes to sleep. In fact, compared to the torment of the pheromone disorder in the previous life, this life was much better.

She rarely felt the unbearable need now.

The night completely descended, and stars filled the sky.

The Omega’s cheeks were rosy, and her sleeping face was soft.

Liang Manqing turned on a night light and quietly left the room. She still decided to sleep in Liang Xue’s room.

Tossing and turning against the pillow, Liang Manqing couldn’t fall asleep. She thought that Qin Qin’s dependency on her might not be a good thing. According to the plot, Qin Qin was easily subjected to emotional and physical abuse.

She was still awake in the middle of the night when the system suddenly emerged from her sleepiness: [Host, according to my deduction, the supporting female character is completely dependent on you. Pushing her away is not conducive to the plot progression. Why don’t you use this opportunity to make the supporting female character completely fall in love with you?]

Liang Manqing slightly pursed her lips. That would be playing right into the system’s hands.

Liang Manqing decided to ask the system about Lin Mian: [Scum System, do you have other task partners?]

The system was caught off guard: [No! I am the only task system in this world.]

Liang Manqing saw through the system’s nervousness: [Stop pretending. Where did the original female lead Lin Mian go?]

The reason the system hadn’t been willing to come out for so long was that Liang Manqing was smart and would test it constantly.

[The original female lead was disobedient, so I locked her in a little dark room. But this is none of your business. You can’t help the original female lead. If you help the male lead finish the plot and ensure the supporting female character completely blackens, you can return to your original world. Interfere at your own risk.] The system said this and vanished without a trace.

Liang Manqing had guessed correctly: Lin Mian was no longer the original female lead.

Being locked in a little dark room means…

Liang Manqing speculated again: Is the original female lead’s consciousness still inside Lin Mian’s body, only trapped and unable to speak by the possessor?

The possessor would definitely try every means to achieve a happily-ever-after (HE) with Jiang Hejing. In the end, not only would the original female lead Lin Mian be permanently suppressed, but Qin Qin would also blacken and disappear.

Liang Manqing clenched her hands. It seemed she had to speed up the process of destroying the system, awakening the original female lead, and saving Qin Qin.

The logic took shape in Liang Manqing’s mind: the breakthrough to destroy the system still required awakening Lin Mian. This might require Xia Jun’s help.

Early the next morning, Liang Manqing was awakened in her sleep by repeated soft calls of “Sister.”

Qin Qin sat by the bed and poked her cheek: “Sister, wake up.”

Liang Manqing had slept late, and her mind wasn’t fully awake. She raised her hand, grabbed the restless hand, and mumbled: “Stop moving… let me sleep a bit more.”

Her hand was caught by Liang Manqing and pressed to the Alpha’s chest. Qin Qin didn’t dare move, blushing as she called out: “Liang Manqing, wake up! We have a location shoot in the countryside for the next few days. Can you come with me?”

Getting no response, Qin Qin couldn’t resist rubbing a little.

Liang Manqing suddenly opened her eyes, looked down at Qin Qin’s hand, and immediately let go: “You… what did you just say?”

Qin Qin repeated: “Can you come with me?”

Liang Manqing had also received notification of the countryside shoot. She had already arranged for her studio to bring the necessary design accessories for the crew, so she naturally had to go herself.

“Is everyone else from your crew going?” Liang Manqing sat up, leaning against the pillow. Hearing Qin Qin say everyone was going, she sent the filming address to Xia Jun, telling her to be sure to go since Lin Mian would be there.

Xia Jun replied, “Okay.” Liang Manqing got up to wash: “I’ll go with you.”

Qin Qin: “Great! Then I’ll go pack my things. The crew’s car will pick us up in an hour.”

Liang Manqing hummed in agreement and went back to her room to pack.

The countryside shoot was expected to last about a week. Liang Manqing packed a few extra sets of clothes. The weather forecast was clear for the coming week, but she prepared thick clothes just in case.

She also prepared motion sickness medication and some fruit.

The crew had prepared SUVs. The rural roads were difficult to navigate, so an SUV would be more convenient.

Liang Manqing was not used to squeezing into a car with others. She had asked Qian Haiye to prepare her own car in advance, stocking it with various necessities.

Bai Ningning, Yu Zhiting, and Lin Mian left first in the crew’s car.

Liang Manqing took Qin Qin’s luggage and put it in the trunk. Throughout the journey, Qin Qin was the one being looked after.

The scenery outside the window was beautiful. The air became fresher as they entered the adjacent town, but the road was bumpy.

Qian Haiye drove steadily, slowing down the pace.

Liang Manqing was sitting by the window in the back seat when someone burrowed into her lap. Qin Qin hugged her waist and frowned: “Sister, I feel so dizzy.”

Liang Manqing: “Carsick?”

Qin Qin nodded.

Liang Manqing peeled an orange she had prepared beforehand, broke off a segment, and fed it to Qin Qin: “Will eating some orange help?”

Taking the orange segment from Liang Manqing’s hand, Qin Qin opened her mouth and bit down. Her moist lips touched Liang Manqing’s finger.

Liang Manqing rubbed her fingertips: “Does it taste good?”

“Mmm…” Qin Qin hummed, then shook her head and frowned: “Not very.”

The oranges were fresh fruit she had just bought. How could they not taste good?

“Let me try.”

Liang Manqing broke off a segment and put it in her mouth. As her teeth gently bit down, the sweet orange juice spread. But before she could eat it, Qin Qin leaned close and bit the orange away from her mouth.

The Omega gently licked the residual orange juice from Liang Manqing’s lips, then sucked on her lips.

Liang Manqing’s lips felt moist, warm, and tingling. Her heart skipped a beat, and she was momentarily lost.

Qin Qin swallowed the orange segment, looked into Liang Manqing’s eyes, and whispered: “Eating Sister this way… is so sweet.”
