After Transmigrating into a Scumbag Alpha, I Sweetly Pampered the Substitute Omega - Chapter 11

It was another clear, breezy day. Qin Ying, who had begun working, yawned and picked out a black suit for herself before leaving the villa.

Ever since the last treatment, Qin Ying and Luo Ranjia had been getting along neither warmly nor coldly, as if the harmonious atmosphere from before had merely been a bubble under the sunlight—beautiful, but fragile.

“Young President Qin.”

The person in charge of Qin Entertainment smiled stiffly, clearly not welcoming Qin Ying’s arrival.

“If you can’t smile, then don’t. Looking at it for no reason is annoying.”

Qin Ying glanced at her. She had already read this person’s file before coming.

Yang Yue was an Alpha. She did not have much ability, but she was quite jealous. However, she had some connection with an old shareholder at headquarters, which was how she had barely managed to become the person in charge of this branch company that had just entered the entertainment industry.

After being scolded by Qin Ying without any regard for her face, Yang Yue’s expression darkened. She said in a strange, sarcastic tone,

“Young people these days don’t understand anything. They just rely on a good background to throw their weight around. If they really mess up the company’s affairs, where will they go to cry?”

Qin Ying stopped walking and gave a cold smile.

“Who gave you the courage to speak to me like that?”

The original owner’s temper was famous in the aristocratic circle. Although Qin Ying did not intend to continue the original owner’s style, when dealing with a petty person like Yang Yue, she also had no intention of being polite.

Qin Ying’s brows and eyes were full of flamboyance. Her Alpha aura fully opened as she looked down at Yang Yue from above.

“Where I have the right to speak, there’s no room for you to make decisions. Since I’ve taken over Qin Entertainment now, you’ll have to do as I say.”

How could Yang Yue have known that this Second Miss Qin, who was widely rumored to be useless, could put so much pressure on her? She trembled so hard that she could barely stand steadily.

Qin Ying was not someone who made unreasonable trouble. It was just that when Yang Yue saw that the company had never improved and that the artists under them were only lukewarm in popularity, she began having crooked thoughts.

If this kind of person stayed in the company, she would only become a bad apple.

But Yang Yue did not think that way.

In her view, the entertainment industry was a place of sensual pleasures and indulgence. The artists under her were obedient tools. She wanted to use those tools to make mutually beneficial deals with investors. What was wrong with that?

Seeing the unconvinced expression on Yang Yue’s face, Qin Ying knew this person’s thoughts could no longer be corrected. She simply quickened her pace and walked straight into the CEO’s office.

“You’ll leave Qin Entertainment tomorrow.”

Qin Ying sat in the office chair and did not tell Yang Yue, who was still standing, to sit down.

Yang Yue, who had spent the whole way thinking about how to embarrass Qin Ying, the parachuted-in president, at the company, froze when she heard this.

“We both know very clearly why you were transferred to Qin Entertainment in the first place. Just one little lover who coaxed you happy was enough to make you leak company secrets. Although Qin Entertainment has only just begun developing, there are plenty of handsome men and beautiful women here. I don’t feel at ease using someone like you, who already has a record.”

Qin Ying crossed her legs. Both her tone and gaze were much gentler than before.

But it was precisely this gentleness that made Yang Yue understand that Qin Ying was not someone easy to provoke.

Still, how could she bear to give up the cake that was already in her mouth? Thinking of the deals she had already discussed with several investors, Yang Yue seemed to regain some confidence.

“Qin Entertainment has been in a state of loss since it was established. If it continues losing money, Young President Qin, you may not necessarily be able to keep sitting in this position.”

Qin Ying seemed to have heard some kind of joke. So the blame for Qin Entertainment’s losses could really be thrown onto her head, a president who had not even been in office for a day?

“Oh? Manager Yang, are you threatening me?”

The corners of Qin Ying’s lips lifted. Her bright smile hid killing intent, and her eyes quietly looked at Yang Yue.

Yang Yue could not help freezing. If this Young President Qin was willing to drink a cup with those investors, what matter could not be settled?

But in the next second, she sobered up. She felt that if she did not take the initiative to resign, this Young President Qin would definitely make her life at Qin Entertainment very miserable.

She had to find some bargaining chip that would let her stay!

After thinking it over, Yang Yue finally remembered a name—Luo Ranshi.

“Young President Qin, Miss Luo Ranshi, the one you like, is reportedly also entering the entertainment industry. I have a way to get in touch with her. When the time comes, you can invest in a drama and visit the set every day. With all that time together, are you still afraid you won’t win the beauty?”

“Like her?”

Qin Ying found this a bit strange.

Back when the original scumbag Alpha was around, only a few people close to her knew she liked Luo Ranshi. Why was it that after Qin Ying had taken over, it seemed like the whole world thought Qin Ying liked Luo Ranshi?

“Where did you hear that?”

Qin Ying sat up slightly. The well-fitted suit outlined her perfect figure, and she seemed very interested in this topic.

“T-this isn’t something everyone knows? These past few days, the rumors have gone crazy. Everyone says the reason Young President Qin married Luo Ranjia was because Luo Ranjia resembled Luo Ranshi a little. Luo Ranjia is nothing more than Luo Ranshi’s substitute.”

Substitute?

What a fine substitute!

The original book’s plot had taken a huge detour and rounded itself back into shape.

Qin Ying felt even more unhappy. It was already bad enough that she had not succeeded in pursuing her wife, but now there were people adding trouble for her too.

“Luo Ranshi is entering the entertainment industry? Hasn’t she always thought highly of herself and looked down on the entertainment circle?”

This plot had never been written in the original book.

“The news from that side is that with Young President Qin protecting her, Luo Ranshi definitely won’t suffer any grievances in the entertainment industry.”

Yang Yue kept feeling that Qin Ying’s tone was strange. It did not sound like she truly had feelings for Luo Ranshi.

“I’m protecting her?”

Qin Ying only found it absurd.

She wondered whether Luo Ranjia knew about these rumors. If she did, would she feel even the slightest bit… uneasy?

Thinking this, Qin Ying also felt that she was too despicable. If she truly liked someone, how could she be willing to make that person feel uneasy?

Seeing Qin Ying’s changing expression, Yang Yue’s heart stirred. She suddenly said,

“Young President Qin, I’ll immediately cancel those dinner appointments with the investors and properly develop Qin Entertainment according to your instructions. Do you think I can continue staying here?”

It was not that Yang Yue had suddenly discovered her conscience. She had always bullied the weak and feared the strong.

In the past, because she had connections at Qin headquarters, Yang Yue threw her weight around. Now that someone with a stronger backing and more brains than her had arrived, once those few seconds of impulsiveness passed and she calmed down, she naturally became obedient.

Qin Ying did not know all the twists and turns in Yang Yue’s heart. She did not mind having someone work under her. It was just that this candidate—

Seeing Qin Ying stare her up and down, Yang Yue felt her heart leap in fear and cursed inwardly that rumors could not be trusted.

“It’s possible, but the Qin family does not allow those who violate the law, and I also cannot tolerate crooked methods.”

Qin Ying leaned back, lowered her head to drink a sip of water, then casually lifted her eyes and looked at the trembling Yang Yue.

“Have you broken the law before? Will you still let lust cloud your judgment in the future?”

Yang Yue almost wanted to kneel before this Second Miss. She stammered,

“I haven’t broken the law, and I’ll definitely correct this lustful problem in the future!”

Qin Ying was somewhat surprised. Yang Yue was a tiny bit more useful than she had imagined. At the very least, her knees had not yet hit the ground.

“Take me around the company. Also, there is only one president’s wife, and that is Luo Ranjia. Aside from her, there is no need to give special care to any other member of the Luo family.”

Qin Ying did not want Luo Ranshi using her name to cause trouble. She was a good Alpha with someone she liked. Keeping herself clean was only right.

“Oh, right. As for the rumors about a substitute, since you’ve been in charge of Qin Entertainment for so long, I’m sure you know how to handle them. My wife, Luo Ranjia, is a unique and irreplaceable treasure. She is not some substitute for random cats and dogs.”

In any case, Luo Ranjia could not hear her. Whether it was “president’s wife” or “my wife,” Qin Ying felt that the more she said it, the smoother it sounded.

Although Qin Entertainment was still in its loss-making stage, it was still a branch company of Qin Corporation. Whether in scale or internal facilities, it did not fall behind in the slightest.

“Manager Yang, is this a new actress? With that appearance, tsk tsk, is she going to become the company’s pillar?”

As Qin Ying passed by the training room for physical form lessons, a long-haired girl walked toward her. Even with only a simple meeting of eyes, she carried a delicate sense of wanting to speak but stopping.

Qin Ying felt no ripple in her heart. It was just that this girl’s style seemed a little familiar.

“Haha, it’s Miss Chen Su. Why did you suddenly come today?”

Yang Yue was clearly somewhat surprised.

“This is Young President Qin of Qin Entertainment, not an artist.”

Seeing Qin Ying’s expressionless appearance, Yang Yue felt a headache coming on. Chen Su’s fame was not low. It was just that the company she had previously signed with was rather terrible. Yang Yue had tried to poach her several times, but the other party’s agent always said to wait a little longer.

Yang Yue had originally given up hope. Who would have thought the other party would suddenly come?

“So it’s Young President Qin. I was rude just now.”

Perhaps because she could not grasp Qin Ying’s personality, Chen Su became much more proper.

This freely controlled pitiful charm was much stronger than Luo Ranshi’s.

In other words, if she promoted an artist whose style clashed with the female lead’s, would that not be rather interesting?

“Yang Yue, go discuss the business matter.”

Qin Ying planned in her heart to find trouble for Luo Ranshi, but business still had to be handled properly.

Looking at Qin Ying’s back, Chen Su was thoughtful.

“Stop looking. Young President Qin is already married.”

Yang Yue was not completely useless. At the very least, in such a short time, she had already found her position.

“I, Chen Su, am not that kind of person.”

Chen Su smiled faintly. She had merely been a little amazed. She had heard the rumors that the Qin family’s Second Miss was useless, but no one had ever mentioned this person’s extraordinary appearance.

With that face, if Qin Ying were a pretty boy, Chen Su would be willing to keep her even if she were useless.

After looking through artists’ information for the entire morning, Qin Ying left work right on time and bought a box of desserts along the way.

As expected, the villa was completely quiet.

Qin Ying carried the desserts to the study door. She wanted to knock, but hesitated.

She wanted to break the overly distant state between the two of them, but the image of Luo Ranjia crying painfully that day surfaced in front of her eyes uncontrollably.

Her curled fingers moved at a spot one centimeter away from the door, but in the end, they still fell weakly.

Qin Ying felt that this hesitant appearance really did not seem like herself. She finally mustered her courage, but at that moment, the door opened with a click.

When their eyes met, Qin Ying’s mind went completely blank.
