After Transmigrating into a Scumbag Alpha, I Sweetly Pampered the Substitute Omega - Chapter 6

“Good news? You can actually have good news? A piece of trash like you thinks you’re worthy?”

Before Qin Ying could finish speaking, she was interrupted by an arrogant voice.

As fellow Alpha grandchildren of the Qin family, Qin Wei had always disliked Qin Ying.

All of the Qin family’s grandchildren were usually addressed by their given names. Only those recognized by the older generation as heirs from a young age could be addressed according to numerical order.

And in the Qin family, the one called Eldest Miss was an Omega, Qin Yun. The one called Second Miss was this useless Qin Ying. As the first grandchild of the Qin family, Qin Wei had been resentful about this for many years.

Qin Ying raised her head unhappily. Without realizing it, the aura of an Alpha spread from her.

The mocking words Qin Wei wanted to say suddenly stopped, and her breathing became heavy.

Since when did this useless thing have this kind of aura?

Qin Wei was secretly shocked. She wanted to suppress it back, but she could not muster any strength at all. She had no choice but to lower her head in submission.

“A-Ying, what did Grandma Qin say?”

Seeing Qin Wei’s expression gradually turn ugly, Luo Ranjia knew what had happened. They had come here to admit fault in the first place, so it was best not to create more trouble. That was why she spoke at this moment.

The Qin family did not only have Grandma Qin. Although Qin Ying basically had no so-called impression points left in the eyes of the Qin family, perhaps there was still a chance to save things?

And for some unknown reason, Luo Ranjia, as an Omega, was not affected by Qin Ying’s pheromones.

A faint scent of green grass seemed to surround Luo Ranjia like a guard. It was no longer the choking smell of tobacco from before. Luo Ranjia was surprised inside, but none of it showed on her face.

Qin Ying returned Qin Wei’s disdainful look before changing back into her previous smile.

“Grandma said she’ll give me one last chance.”

Qin Ying sat beside Luo Ranjia, picked up a cup of water, and drank it in one go. Under Grandma Qin’s pressure, she had not felt it earlier, but now she realized that her throat was almost smoking dry.

For some reason, before coming here, Qin Ying had felt uneasy. She had tried her best to make everything from her clothes to her expression resemble the original owner. But after meeting Grandma Qin, she inexplicably felt that she did not need to pretend.

Then maybe her transmigration into the book was not just a simple accident.

But no matter how complicated it was, now was not the time to investigate it deeply.

“Even if you’ve passed Grandma’s test, when the Qin family gathers tonight, you still won’t get anything good out of it.”

In the past, when Qin Wei saw Qin Ying smile, she would only think this useless thing was a clown who did not know she was a clown.

Now, when Qin Wei saw Qin Ying smile, she could not help wanting to destroy it.

So even though she had just been taught a lesson, she still could not fix her cheap mouth.

Qin Ying turned to look at this cousin in her memories and only felt that this person had not inherited the Qin family’s good genes. At the very least, she had not inherited them in terms of appearance.

Even with graying hair, Grandma Qin was still an extremely beautiful woman. The beauty aged by time made her very charming even at this age.

Before going to the study, Qin Ying had glanced at Qin Wei’s mother, Qin Xue. She could also be considered a beauty, but the greed in her eyes was a little too obvious. Clearly, she valued power and profit greatly.

By Qin Wei’s generation, however, she could only be called good-looking. Ordinarily good-looking.

And toward someone with a bad personality, who also lacked enough beauty to make people willing to suffer a tiny loss, Qin Ying had always had a sharp tongue.

“You’re not useless, but after so many years, I haven’t seen you accomplish anything either. Compared with me, someone ignorant and incompetent, there’s only one reason you’ve lived such a failed life. It’s a problem with your intelligence.”

Qin Ying looked at Qin Wei’s furious expression, took a sip of tea, and continued,

“I’ve always thought you were the most balanced person in the Qin family. Your looks and your intelligence are simply on par with each other.”

There was no woman who did not care about her appearance, and no Alpha who did not care about her strength. Qin Ying attacked both at once, aiming to make Qin Wei, this troublemaker, shut up before tonight’s family meeting.

Of course, if she overdid it and caused Qin Wei to go even crazier, Qin Ying would also be happy to play along.

Luo Ranjia looked at this version of Qin Ying with complicated feelings.

She had thought Qin Ying was like spring sunlight—warm, bright, but also gentle.

But judging from today, when Qin Ying encountered someone she disliked, she could also be a burning sun, forceful and rather powerful. That much could be seen from Qin Wei’s ashen face.

“Keep acting tough for now.”

Qin Wei was unconvinced, but the pain of being suppressed forced her to submit. In the end, she could only throw down a harsh sentence and leave in disgrace.

Once the annoying thing left, Qin Ying felt that even the air in the little garden had become much better.

“Why aren’t you continuing to advise me?”

Qin Ying could naturally guess Luo Ranjia’s intentions. Being cared for made her feel delighted all over, and she even had to ask in a show-off manner.

“Your complexion is much paler than when we came.”

Luo Ranjia did not ask exactly how Qin Ying had made Grandma Qin give her one more chance, but she knew it must not have been simple.

Qin Ying lifted the long hair beside her face. Alas, the person beside her was not someone willing to open her mouth and praise others. Her narcissistic feelings could only be slowly digested alone.

She felt a little disappointed.

Luo Ranjia only felt that the gaze of the person beside her was becoming more and more resentful, and she was somewhat helpless.

“Sigh, do you think Grandma believed I would change too casually? She barely asked anything.”

Qin Ying leisurely leaned against the back of the chair. Shattered sunlight passed through layers of green leaves and sprinkled across her face, as if the forcefulness from earlier had only been an illusion.

Luo Ranjia also relaxed her body, but the habits she had formed over the years still made her maintain an upright sitting posture.

“Do you know what status the words ‘Second Miss’ hold in the Qin family?”

Luo Ranjia often suspected that Qin Ying was not very clear about her own identity, whether it was her identity as an Alpha or her identity as the Qin family’s Second Miss.

“I’m afraid that from the moment those videos and recordings reached Grandma Qin’s hands, your every move has been reported to her at any time.”

Qin Ying had been in this world for a week now. From the moment her so-called friend stopped contacting her, Qin Ying knew the videos and recordings had definitely already reached Grandma Qin.

She had wanted to stop it, but things like that, which could easily be backed up, would probably take a lot of effort to completely erase.

Besides, paper could not wrap up fire forever. Qin Ying was also too lazy to spend every day living in fear like she was guarding against thieves. She might as well honestly return to the old residence and accept punishment.

Luo Ranjia thought Qin Ying would probably be displeased by this kind of surveillance, but she saw only indifference on Qin Ying’s face.

Qin Ying turned her head. Luo Ranjia’s long hair fluttered slightly in the wind, tempting her to wrap it around her fingertips.

But that thought could only remain in her heart. She was not a frivolous person.

As if sensing something, Luo Ranjia turned her head slightly. Qin Ying watched helplessly as the few strands of long hair closest to her moved farther and farther away.

Alas, facing such an outstanding person, it was really hard not to fall for her.

Qin Ying shifted her gaze to the flower branches on the other side. Whether it was merely because her beauty was bewitching, or because her personality was charming, Qin Ying was not prepared to let Luo Ranjia discover this budding love in her heart.

Otherwise, this situation where the two of them could sit together so leisurely might never have a chance to appear again.

She could not help sighing inwardly, but on her face, she gave Luo Ranjia a big smile. Ignoring the doubtful look in Luo Ranjia’s eyes, she turned to chat about another topic.

Luo Ranjia looked at Qin Ying thoughtfully. She truly could not figure out why this person would suddenly fall silent, then suddenly become happy.

“Aren’t you worried about tonight’s family meeting?”

The two of them drank tea and admired the scenery in the little garden just like that. Before they knew it, the sun had already tilted westward, dyeing the entire sky. It had a breathtaking beauty of its own.

Looking at the magnificent scenery, Luo Ranjia could not help thinking of the bright red lips of the person beside her.

With such gorgeous looks, Qin Ying should have bloomed warmly and passionately. Yet sitting together with someone as boring as herself, Qin Ying showed not a trace of impatience. She even seemed to be enjoying it more than Luo Ranjia herself.

“The most difficult hurdle has already been passed. The rest isn’t a big problem.”

Before transmigrating into the book, Qin Ying’s work ability had not been bad either. As an orphan who had climbed to the position of project manager at a major company by the age of twenty-four, Qin Ying had never feared challenges.

The only thing that made her helpless was that her original plan of working as a corporate slave for two more years before resigning and slacking off seemed no longer feasible after transmigrating into the book.

There were not many people at the family meeting. Some members of the Qin family, such as Qin Ying’s two mothers, were away on business and had no time to return. Qin Ying also had an elder sister, but unfortunately, this elder sister had also inherited the workaholic nature of their two mothers very well and treated overtime as part of daily life.

Relying on the images in her memories, Qin Ying recognized more than half of the people.

The woman she had seen in the living room earlier, wearing a red qipao, was Qin Ying’s eldest aunt, Qin Xue. She was currently glaring at Qin Ying aggressively.

Sitting beside this eldest aunt was Qin Wei, who had failed to provoke Qin Ying and had instead been suppressed by her.

“I wonder whether Qin Wei dared to tell this eldest aunt about what happened in the little garden.”

Qin Ying thought this out of boredom. This eldest aunt wanted her daughter to become outstanding. In the past, in order to set off her own daughter’s excellence, every time they met, she would belittle the original owner, making the original owner feel deeply humiliated but unable to refute her.

Beside these two was Qin Ying’s second aunt, Qin Lin. She was an Omega, carrying the sensitive heart and rich emotions that most Omegas had.

Qin Lin was not interested in the family business. Most of the time, she focused on painting. She had already held several art exhibitions and was a fairly well-known painter.

What was worth mentioning was that this gentle, sentimental woman had once done something no one expected—she divorced the Alpha she had once deeply loved.

After Qin Lin discovered the other party had cheated, she returned to the Qin family and cried heartbreakingly in Grandma Qin’s arms. Just as everyone was preparing to comfort her, she decisively found a lawyer and arranged the divorce matters. In the end, both the property and her daughter belonged to her.

As Qin Ying recalled this, she could not help sighing. As expected of Grandma Qin’s daughter.

And sitting beside Qin Lin was naturally her daughter, Qin Yun.

She was also an Omega, but she was the person recognized by Grandma Qin as the “Eldest Miss.”

In this world, Omegas were naturally weaker than Alphas. In many families, Omegas were not allowed to interfere too much in business. But Grandma Qin was different. She had only one standard for choosing people: ability!

So this Omega, who had been strong-willed since childhood, successfully obtained the identity of Qin family’s Eldest Miss at the age of ten after displaying extraordinary talent and ability in business.

It was said that this had once made eldest aunt Qin Xue collapse emotionally.

Next were Qin Ying and Luo Ranjia.

Qin Ying could not quite understand it. According to the Qin family’s standards, the title of “Second Miss” should never have fallen on her head no matter what. In her memories, everything from her childhood was completely blank.
