After Transmigrating Into An Eighteenth-Tier Alpha, I Married The Best Actress - Chapter 11
The hospital at night was very quiet, quiet to a terrifying degree.
Yin Lingzhu lay inside the machine.
She was an Alpha. To Yan Si, she still had value to be used. There could not be anything wrong with her pheromones.
Thinking this, Yin Lingzhu slowly closed her eyes.
After confirming that Yin Lingzhu was ready, You Xiaoxiao pressed the button. A glass cover appeared, surrounding Yin Lingzhu.
Agonizing pain spread from her heart from the inside out, and the pain at the back of her neck was the most obvious.
She felt that aside from pain, something else was draining from her body.
You Xiaoxiao’s eyes reflected Yin Lingzhu’s expression of suffering.
Before doing this experiment, she had told Yan Si, but Yan Si had not given her any reply.
You Xiaoxiao had originally thought that Yan Si did not care about Yin Lingzhu, so she had no reaction and had tacitly allowed her actions.
But when she saw Yan Si appear at the door, suspicion rose silently in her heart.
“Has it started?” Yan Si came in and asked You Xiaoxiao.
You Xiaoxiao shifted aside, and Yin Lingzhu’s appearance was completely exposed to Yan Si’s gaze.
Yin Lingzhu also sensed that someone had come. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Yan Si looking down at her from above.
She closed her eyes again and tried her best to control her expression.
She could not let Yan Si see her face twisted in pain.
“After her pheromones are extracted, even if you two divorce, you won’t need to worry,” You Xiaoxiao said to Yan Si after she came in.
Yan Si looked at the suffering Yin Lingzhu and asked a question. “Then will she still be able to release pheromones afterward? There’s still one marking tomorrow.”
Hearing this, You Xiaoxiao smiled. “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
“The pheromones extracted today will be enough to support you for one year.”
“This won’t harm her too much. After she rests a little, she’ll be able to use them normally.”
In the end, You Xiaoxiao had not been ruthless enough to ruin Yin Lingzhu’s gland.
Yin Lingzhu heard them talking and realized that the procedure she was undergoing was not to eliminate the side effects.
But right now, she could not move, and she did not want to resist either.
If, after the divorce, her pheromones could still help Yan Si, she was willing.
“The more pheromones are extracted, the harder it will be for her body to withstand it. It may even endanger her life.” You Xiaoxiao explained the danger clearly to Yan Si.
“If we extract enough for one year, I can forcibly extract it without her consent. But the higher the number of years, the more she needs to cooperate.”
After Yan Si heard this, her lashes trembled lightly. She walked to Yin Lingzhu’s side and bent down.
“You like me, so you’re willing to give up your life for me, right?” Her voice carried bewitching temptation, step by step luring someone into the abyss.
Yin Lingzhu had heard You Xiaoxiao’s words and also understood what Yan Si meant.
With difficulty, she nodded.
Yan Si bloomed into a satisfied smile. Then she approached You Xiaoxiao step by step, invisibly emitting a sense of pressure.
You Xiaoxiao could hardly bear it and stepped back.
“I trust your skill. You won’t let her die, right?” The corners of Yan Si’s mouth curved into a dangerous arc.
As someone who had followed her since childhood, You Xiaoxiao naturally understood what she meant.
“Fine.” You Xiaoxiao swallowed and nodded.
You Xiaoxiao walked to the machine’s control panel and tapped it lightly a few times.
Yin Lingzhu immediately felt as if her body were being pierced from the outside by thousands upon thousands of needles, slowly embedding themselves into her skin and muscles. Even the gaps between her bones felt as if they were being sliced open by a knife, cut by cut, slowly and deliberately.
By the end, Yin Lingzhu could no longer tell whether her flesh or her bones hurt more.
You Xiaoxiao looked at Yin Lingzhu, whose head was covered in sweat, with some unbearable pity. She turned her head away and saw Yan Si’s side profile.
There was not the slightest expression on Yan Si’s face.
“Ah!!” Yin Lingzhu screamed and fainted.
You Xiaoxiao hurriedly shut off the equipment and dragged Yin Lingzhu out of the machine.
Yin Lingzhu looked as if she had been soaked in water. Her entire body was drenched through with sweat.
Only after You Xiaoxiao placed Yin Lingzhu onto the hospital bed did she check how much pheromone the machine had collected.
While You Xiaoxiao was moving Yin Lingzhu, Yan Si stood to the side, watching the pheromone data.
Because of her own body, Yan Si had researched glands before.
When she saw You Xiaoxiao come over, Yan Si asked how much pheromone had been collected.
You Xiaoxiao glanced at the screen. “Roughly enough for you to use for four years.”
Yan Si frowned. “How is her body? Can she still produce pheromones?”
Hearing her question, You Xiaoxiao honestly shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Yan Si looked at Yin Lingzhu lying on the hospital bed. Countless thoughts flashed through her heart, but not the slightest hint showed on her face.
“When she wakes up, tell her tomorrow is the marking day. I’ll go home.” After Yan Si said this, she walked out of the room.
You Xiaoxiao felt a little sympathy for Yin Lingzhu.
But that sympathy was not much. Only a little.
When Yin Lingzhu opened her eyes, it was already morning.
She propped herself up and first looked around the room. There was no sign of Yan Si.
Only then did she notice the exhaustion in her body. Her arm bent, and she fell back onto the bed.
After learning what Yan Si had said to her, Yin Lingzhu immediately discharged herself and returned to the apartment.
Tonight was not only the marking day, but also the day her one year came to an end.
She still wanted to fight for herself one last time.
There was no sun in the sky. Large patches of dark clouds were connected together, and gusts of wind blew again and again.
Yin Lingzhu lifted her head worriedly, hoping it would not rain.
If it rained, would Yan Si find it troublesome and not come?
Yin Lingzhu sat on the balcony, thinking about how she should tell Yan Si that she did not want a divorce.
Even if Yan Si did not care about her, even if Yan Si might have cheated, she still did not want to leave Yan Si.
Only then did Yin Lingzhu realize that she could actually be this lowly.
She was like a dog, rubbing against Yan Si’s trouser leg while still worrying whether her touch would make Yan Si unhappy.
It was only eight in the evening, yet the sky seemed to have been dyed with ink. There was not the slightest light. The oppressive darkness was frightening.
Suddenly, the sound of knocking rang out. Yin Lingzhu opened the door. It was Yan Si.
Yan Si had come tonight.
Yin Lingzhu revealed a smile. This was the first smile from the heart she had shown in so many days.
“I made your favorite dishes. Try them,” Yin Lingzhu said to Yan Si.
Yan Si did not even look at the food on the table. She stared straight into Yin Lingzhu’s eyes. “Go to the bedroom and mark me.”
The meal was rejected once again. Yin Lingzhu did not feel any anger either. After all, it was not the first or second time.
In Yan Si’s room, Yin Lingzhu lay on the two-meter bed, while Yan Si pressed down on top of her.
The rose fragrance in the air was terrifyingly rich.
“I’m sorry.” Yin Lingzhu’s voice carried a sob. “I don’t have pheromones right now.”
After saying this, Yin Lingzhu closed her eyes. She had prepared herself for Yan Si to leave, but she did not dare watch it with her own eyes.
Who knew that Yan Si, who was pressing on top of her, not only did not leave, but instead gave a soft laugh.
Catching that laugh, Yin Lingzhu opened her eyes.
Yan Si’s brows and eyes were curved, her eyes seeming to be separated by a layer of mist. The curve of her lips was not large, but it was unbearably enchanting.
She was even more heart-stirring than the first time Yin Lingzhu had seen her.
Yin Lingzhu had just wanted to ask why Yan Si was laughing when a clap of thunder sounded outside. Then everything before her eyes went pitch-black.
Terrified, Yin Lingzhu hugged Yan Si.
Her fear of the dark was carved into her bones.
When Yin Lingzhu was home alone, she did not dare turn off the lights to sleep.
Because of this, she had a special lamp that could be set to turn off at a certain time.
Yin Lingzhu had set it so that the light would only go out after she had fallen asleep.
She always fell asleep accompanied by light.
To Yin Lingzhu, what light brought her was more of an indescribable sense of safety. What darkness gave her was endless fear.
There was even a small flashlight at the head of her bed, meant to deal with sudden situations like power outages.
Thinking of that flashlight, Yin Lingzhu could not help wrapping her arms even more tightly around Yan Si.
She had been very busy these past few days and had not had time to charge the flashlight. The flashlight had no power now.
But since Yan Si was by her side right now, Yin Lingzhu was not worried.
In the pitch-black darkness, the phone Yan Si had placed on the bedside cabinet suddenly lit up.
Yan Si got up, and Yin Lingzhu also sat up.
[I’m really scared of thunder. Will you come keep me company?]
Sender: Si Xin.
Yin Lingzhu took the entire message into her eyes, and the fear in her heart gradually spread through her whole body.
She hoped Yan Si would refuse, but Yan Si said she had to leave.
When Yin Lingzhu came back to herself, the room was terrifyingly quiet and terrifyingly dark.
Only Yin Lingzhu was left.
Yan Si had really left.
She walked out of Yan Si’s bedroom.
This time, she truly had nothing left.
Yin Lingzhu sat down on the sofa and pulled out the divorce agreement.
Yan Si’s name had already been written on it. The place for Yin Lingzhu’s signature was still empty.
The only thing in the room that could be used for light was Yin Lingzhu’s phone, but its battery was only at ten percent. It would not last long.
The moment the phone screen went dark, Yin Lingzhu also made up her mind and firmly signed the contract.
This past year, she had given everything to Yan Si. Yesterday, she had nearly even given her life.
But Yan Si’s heart was something she could not warm. No matter how much she gave, what use was it?
Yan Si, ah, Yan Si. You truly make people so heartbroken.
When Yin Lingzhu wrote the final stroke of her name, she pressed down especially hard, pouring all the feelings she had held this past year into it.
How carefree her life used to be.
Before meeting Yan Si, Yin Lingzhu had always been free, living for herself.
Everything she did was to make herself happy. But after meeting Yan Si, her entire being sank into Yan Si.
No matter what she did, she thought about whether Yan Si would like her doing it.
Yin Lingzhu placed the divorce agreement on the table, right beside the cold dishes.
She returned to her own room, took the necessary documents, and left.
The moment she locked the door, Yin Lingzhu’s heart was mixed with pain and joy.
She felt that she should be happy.
Yin Lingzhu placed the documents on herself and knocked on Ji Jingrong’s door.
“Here, your clothes.” Yin Lingzhu held Ji Jingrong’s clothes in her hand. She had forgotten them on the sofa last time.
Ji Jingrong reached out to take them and asked cautiously, “Are you all right?”
Ji Jingrong sharply sensed that Yin Lingzhu’s emotions were off.
“Of course I’m all right. I’m divorced.” Yin Lingzhu smiled and turned, preparing to leave.
Ji Jingrong grabbed Yin Lingzhu’s wrist and pulled her into her apartment.
Although Ji Jingrong was happy that Yin Lingzhu had thought things through, she also understood just how difficult the choice to divorce was for Yin Lingzhu.
She did not ask Yin Lingzhu what had happened. She only hugged her and comforted her silently.
The tears Yin Lingzhu had been holding back finally burst out at this moment.
She really liked Yan Si.
For no reason at all, she had liked her at first sight.
Ji Jingrong stayed with Yin Lingzhu until dawn.
