After Transmigrating Into An Eighteenth-Tier Alpha, I Married The Best Actress - Chapter 1
Clusters of twinkling stars were scattered messily across the sky.
Yin Lingzhu was sleeping in bed when she suddenly felt a wave of thirst.
She opened her eyes, wanting to get up and drink some water, only to find that the room was pitch-black.
A faint surprise stirred in Yin Lingzhu’s heart. Every time before she went to sleep, she always had to leave a light on.
Her guard went up. She got out of bed, turned on the main light, and looked around. After checking the room, she confirmed that this was not her house.
Yin Lingzhu moved over to the desk. There was a book on it.
The Differences Between Alpha and Omega
She glanced at the title. The moment her fingers touched the cover, a sudden pain shot through her head, and she fainted.
When Yin Lingzhu woke up again, she was startled awake by the sound of someone pounding on the door outside.
She clutched her head. A massive flood of memories that did not belong to her filled her mind.
This world was actually like this.
The knocking grew louder each time. It was obvious that the person outside was gradually losing patience.
“Hurry up and pay back the money, or I swear I’ll tear your door down.” A rough male voice rang out again, mixed with the sound of someone kicking the door.
These noises left her no time to think.
Yin Lingzhu checked the original owner’s memories and discovered that she had indeed borrowed money from someone.
The people outside had not come to demand repayment just once or twice either.
“Big Brother, I don’t have money right now. I’ll bring it to you in a few days,” Yin Lingzhu shouted through the door.
“Just you wait. After the seventh, if you still haven’t paid, you know what the consequences will be.” The burly man left behind that threat, kicked the door hard one more time, and only then was he finally willing to leave.
Listening as the footsteps outside the door gradually faded away, Yin Lingzhu let out a breath of relief.
She began carefully going through the original owner’s memories.
In this world, humans were divided into male and female at birth. At eighteen, they would undergo another differentiation, becoming Alpha, Beta, or Omega.
After differentiation, there were six gender ranks: SS, S, A, B, C, and D.
The body Yin Lingzhu had transmigrated into belonged to a B-rank female Alpha. On top of that, because her face was quite good-looking, she had been signed by an entertainment company.
But the original owner did not dance, did not practice singing, and did not go to the company either. It was not until noon today, when her manager sent her the contract and gave her a final ultimatum, that the original owner found out.
If she could not gain enough fame, she would have to pay an enormous breach-of-contract penalty: ten million.
After receiving this news, the original owner had been distracted. While drinking water, she was electrocuted to death, and that was how Yin Lingzhu transmigrated into this body.
Why did everyone else transmigrate into smooth sailing lives, while she transmigrated into a giant penalty fee?
Yin Lingzhu gave a bitter laugh, placed the book on the desk neatly and properly, and began thinking about how to solve the issue of the penalty fee.
As she thought and thought, Yin Lingzhu unknowingly fell asleep.
The next day, sunlight slowly filtered through the curtains and shone onto Yin Lingzhu’s face.
The morning light carried a hint of orange-red, slowly sliding over Yin Lingzhu’s full forehead, straight nose bridge, and the hair draped over her shoulders before reaching her collarbone, forming a perfect curve.
Yin Lingzhu slowly opened her eyes, half-squinting under the sunlight. Because she had just woken up, her entire body carried a soft, cute, harmless air.
She felt around in her pocket. Not a single cent.
Yin Lingzhu simply tidied herself up, then walked to the company on foot.
The place she rented was neither too close nor too far from the company. It took her half an hour to arrive.
Yin Lingzhu found her manager’s office, opened the door, and discovered there was already someone inside.
She recognized who it was: Rong Yu.
Rong Yu had signed with the company around the same time as Yin Lingzhu, but she had seen through the company’s true nature very early on. Using the convenience the company provided, she quickly found herself a backer.
Yin Lingzhu was not very familiar with her.
Just as Yin Lingzhu sat down on the sofa, she noticed Rong Yu staring at her the whole time, so she gave Rong Yu a smile.
She had bangs that happened to fall right above her eyes. Her brows were naturally shapely without needing to be trimmed, and when she smiled, she looked especially youthful.
Rong Yu stared in a daze for a moment. After coming back to herself, she shot Yin Lingzhu a vicious glare.
Receiving that look, Yin Lingzhu was extremely puzzled, and secretly became a little more cautious.
Just as the air fell into silence, another person pushed open the door and came in, walking straight to the main seat and sitting down.
The newcomer immediately directed his attack at Yin Lingzhu. “What brings you here today, busy woman?”
This person was their manager, Wen-ge.
Yin Lingzhu had not yet figured out how to explain when Rong Yu spoke first.
“Wen-ge, Xiao Zhu has come to the company now, so don’t say that about her.” Rong Yu’s voice was gentle and soft, but her words were clearly adding fuel to the fire.
As she spoke, she even glanced at Yin Lingzhu, though there was deeply hidden malice in her eyes.
“Wen-ge, don’t be angry. I want to look at my contract.” After Rong Yu finished speaking, Yin Lingzhu followed up with this sentence.
She had thought about it for a long time. The only thing she could do was look for loopholes in the contract she had signed and see if she could pay a little less in penalty fees.
“The contracts are uniformly kept by the company. I don’t have it.” Wen-ge looked at his phone, speaking in a firm tone.
“Besides, we’re such a big company. How could we possibly trick you?”
Seeing how Wen-ge stubbornly refused to bring out the contract, and how he was obviously trying to cover something up, Yin Lingzhu understood.
Her contract most likely had a huge problem.
That was what she thought, but not the slightest hint showed on her face.
“What are you saying, Wen-ge? I trust the company very much too.” Yin Lingzhu sat up straight, wearing an innocent smile.
At that moment, Rong Yu suddenly said, “Xiao Zhu probably hasn’t filmed in a long time. I know there’s a production crew holding auditions this afternoon. You can go give it a try.”
“Then hurry and go with Xiao Yu to audition for the crew.” Wen-ge hurriedly picked up his phone. “This opportunity is hard to come by.”
Yin Lingzhu took all of these movements in.
“Okay, Wen-ge. I’ll head to the production crew first, then.” Yin Lingzhu followed behind Rong Yu, speaking to Wen-ge as she walked.
Seeing the door close behind Yin Lingzhu, Wen-ge hurriedly called someone.
“She seems to have noticed.”
Yin Lingzhu only heard this one sentence before she was interrupted.
“What are you dawdling around for?” Rong Yu turned around. The person who should have been behind her was now crouched by the office door.
“My shoelace came undone.” Yin Lingzhu gestured for her to look at her shoes.
The shoelaces on both shoes were tied.
“I just tied them.” Yin Lingzhu stood up, the corner of her mouth curving. “Do they look good?”
“Are you sick in the head? Hurry up and go.” After being interrupted by her like this, Rong Yu’s mind went blank. She forgot what she had been thinking and could not help scolding her.
The blazing sun at noon baked the ground. There was not a cloud in the sky, and the air became thick and hot.
Yin Lingzhu walked alone along the roadside. Sweat dampened the hair on her forehead and the back of her neck. Feeling the sticky sensation all over her body, irritation rose in her heart.
Yin Lingzhu’s shoes had been bought for ten yuan. Both the soles and uppers were very thin.
The good thing was that they were breathable. The bad thing was that the soles of her feet hurt terribly now, no different from stepping directly on the ground.
A car horn blared: “Beep—beep—beep—”
Yin Lingzhu turned her head with a frown. Rong Yu was sitting inside an extended luxury car, holding an iced drink in her left hand and watermelon in her right.
After receiving Rong Yu’s instructions, the driver kept the car moving extremely slowly, almost at the same speed as Yin Lingzhu walking.
Through the car window, she could see the smug expression on Rong Yu’s face.
Yin Lingzhu felt stifled with frustration and turned her head away, refusing to look at Rong Yu.
She could sense Rong Yu’s hostility toward her, but she had not expected her to be this childish.
Yin Lingzhu frowned slightly. Why would Rong Yu have malice toward her? The two of them had barely interacted before.
