Daily Life Of A Socially Anxious Scumbag Alpha Raising Flowers - Chapter 20
This time, Wen Xin took some injections and medicine from Zhong Siyu again.
As usual, she also stopped by the supermarket on the way to buy groceries and daily necessities.
Only then did she return home with Dong Xun.
After learning from Zhong Siyu that Dong Xun’s condition had improved somewhat, Wen Xin was in a very good mood.
That good mood lasted all the way until they returned home and opened the door.
The instant the door opened, it came to an abrupt stop.
As soon as Wen Xin opened the door, she suddenly discovered that the originally neat living room had become a smoky mess. The living room was filled with curling smoke, and several women were sitting casually on the sofa with their shoes on. The home had also been rummaged through until it was a complete mess.
“Yo, the busy person is back?”
One woman, who was clearly the leader, saw Wen Xin return and opened her mouth in mockery. “Why haven’t you contacted your sisters lately? You didn’t even reply when we tagged you in the group chat. We thought something had happened to you. We were so worried.”
She said she was worried, but there was not the slightest hint of worry in her tone.
Wen Xin instinctively pulled Dong Xun behind her to the side, her gaze icy as she looked at the people in front of her.
From what the other party said, she had roughly guessed that these were the fair-weather friends Wen Xin had made before. They were not strange illegal intruders, which calmed her slightly.
After all, the other side had the advantage in numbers, and Wen Xin did not want to completely fall out with them right away. Her tone remained polite, calm, and impossible to read.
“Sorry. I hit my head some time ago and lost my memory. I forgot who all of you are.”
The teasing expressions on those people’s faces paused for a moment. Then they burst into loud laughter again.
“Hahahahaha! Wen Xin, what kind of joke are you making now?”
“She said she lost her memory, hahahahahaha! Who would believe that if you said it out loud?”
“Come, come, take a good look at my face. Do you really not remember who I am?”
The woman who had spoken first moved her face close to Wen Xin’s eyes. Her mouth reeked of smoke.
Wen Xin resisted the urge to recoil, stepped back, and frowned slightly.
“You really lost your memory?”
The woman looked Wen Xin up and down, half-believing and half-doubting. She turned her head and said to the other two women, “Don’t say it. She does look a little different.”
If this had been the Wen Xin from before, that coward would have started smiling apologetically at her long ago. Now, after losing her memory, she actually looked somewhat more backbone-filled. She even dared show her a disgusted expression.
But memory loss… had its benefits too.
Yang Qing’s gaze landed extremely directly on Dong Xun behind Wen Xin, and a malicious light flashed in her eyes.
“Wen Xin, it’s fine if you lost your memory and don’t remember us. I’ll introduce us to you again.”
Yang Qing smiled and took the initiative to introduce them. “We’re all your good friends. My name is Yang Qing, she’s Wang Ziru, and she’s Chen Mengfan. We were all colleagues before. Usually, we had a good relationship and often went out together. Do you remember a little now?”
“I don’t seem to remember…”
Wen Xin forced the corner of her lips up with difficulty. She kind of wanted to curse.
What damned good friends!
She had long since read through the phone’s spending records and chat logs until they were practically rotten. She had already remembered these familiar names, and now she could finally match them to their faces in reality.
Before, every time they went out to sing and spend money, almost all of it had been paid by the original owner, this sucker. How could they not treat her as a good friend?
“Tsk. Wen Xin, didn’t we agree before?”
Without giving her any room to respond, Yang Qing stretched out her arm and hooked it around Wen Xin’s neck. Her voice did not lower out of consideration just because Dong Xun herself was here. She said openly and matter-of-factly, “You promised me. You said you’d lend me your wife whenever I needed her… My sensitive period is about to arrive soon, and I really need an Omega’s help. I thought of you first, my best sister.”
Wang Ziru and Chen Mengfan exchanged glances for two seconds, then followed along.
“That’s right, Wen Xin. You’re not pretending to have amnesia because you want to go back on your word, are you? You patted your chest before and said that as long as everyone needed help during their sensitive periods, they could come to your house and find you.”
Of course, the original owner had never agreed to such a request.
No matter how cowardly she was, she was still an Alpha. How could she possibly be willing to wear a green hat?
Yang Qing and the others were clearly trying to rob her while she was down.
They did not care whether Wen Xin had truly lost her memory or was faking it.
It would be best if it were true. That way, whatever they wanted to do could be decided by whatever they said.
If it were fake, then Wen Xin would have to keep pretending until the end and swallow this bitter fruit herself.
Yang Qing called her a good sister, but in reality, she had never taken Wen Xin seriously.
Ever since she had once come to Wen Xin’s home and seen Dong Xun, Yang Qing had secretly coveted Dong Xun’s beauty.
She had brought up “borrowing” Wen Xin’s wife during her sensitive period several times. After all, Wen Xin did seem to care very little about the Omega in her home. Her heart was full of her childhood sweetheart, and every time they drank together and she got drunk, she would go mad from the alcohol and talk about the past between her and that childhood sweetheart.
It was just that every time Yang Qing tentatively brought up that kind of request, Wen Xin would change the subject and deliberately blur past it.
The original owner had not even dared directly refuse Yang Qing’s request, which was provocative to the extreme and could be called taking a dump on top of her head.
Calling her cowardly really had not been wrong.
She herself did not dare refuse Yang Qing’s presumptuous demand. Instead, every time she came home, she would take her anger out on Dong Xun, saying that Dong Xun was loose and seducing people…
Yang Qing had said even uglier things in front of the original owner. Having always acted recklessly, she naturally did not feel there was anything wrong with saying these things.
But when Wen Xin heard her speak about Dong Xun as if she were an object and disrespect her like this, she instantly felt a nameless fire shoot straight to the top of her head.
“Get out. I don’t know you, and I don’t welcome people who illegally broke into my home. If you don’t get out, I’m calling the police!”
Wen Xin threw off Yang Qing’s filthy hand and took out her phone to call the police.
Yang Qing was about the same height as her, but her build was much sturdier. Because she spent years mixing around on the streets, she wore a sleeveless undershirt, and the muscle lines on her arms were visible to the naked eye.
With one slap, she knocked the phone out of Wen Xin’s hand. Then she stopped pretending and immediately punched Wen Xin in the face.
Seeing Wen Xin fall to the ground, unable to withstand even a single blow, Yang Qing stepped forward and kicked her hard twice, sneering. “I really gave you face, didn’t I? A useless coward like you dares lay hands on me! Acting tough because you think you can protect your Omega? Believe it or not, I’ll mark your wife right in front of you.”
As she spoke, she went directly toward Dong Xun.
Yang Qing’s punch, thrown with full force, made Wen Xin’s head spin. She could not tell exactly where her body hurt, and for a moment, she actually had no strength to climb up from the floor.
A hot stream rushed out of her nose, and her mouth tasted salty too.
“Don’t touch her!”
Wen Xin’s gaze locked tightly onto Yang Qing’s movements as she used all her strength to scream, “Dong Xun, run!”
Dong Xun’s face was pale, but her figure stood in place without moving.
If Yang Qing and the others’ target was her, then no matter how she ran now, she could not escape.
In truth, just now, Wen Xin had already secretly written in her palm and told her to run. But she had not moved.
She could not clearly say what exactly she was thinking. She only looked at the person who had stood in front of her at once and felt that she should not leave Wen Xin here alone.
Dong Xun retreated a few steps and picked up the vase leaning on the cabinet by the entryway. Her expression was surprisingly calm.
“Hahahaha! Sister Qing, did you see that? This little O is actually trying to resist with a vase.”
“She really overestimates herself. Didn’t she see that even her useless partner got knocked to the ground by our boss with one punch? What’s the point of following a useless person like that? This scumbag isn’t even that good to you. She commits domestic violence against you every day. If you’re smart, you might as well leave her and follow our Sister Qing from now on. Your days will definitely be much better than now.”
The two little lackeys Yang Qing had brought could not help letting out piercing laughter when they saw Dong Xun’s actions.
“That’s right. You might as well follow me. I definitely won’t treat you badly in the future.”
Yang Qing’s obsessed gaze landed on Dong Xun’s face.
To be honest, this Omega was truly good-looking, completely Yang Qing’s type. Unfortunately, what was unfortunate was that her genetic rank was too low. Otherwise, Yang Qing really would have been somewhat tempted to marry her and bring her home.
But as a temporary tool for solving physiological needs, she was still very good.
Although Yang Qing was a street hoodlum who mixed around at the bottom level, she did not think she would keep going like this forever. She often dreamed that one day, she would make something of herself and become rich and powerful.
Because of that, in her private heart, she felt that a low-rank Omega like Dong Xun was unworthy of her future status.
Yang Qing’s face, bearing a malicious smile, gradually approached.
Dong Xun truly used all her strength to smash the vase hard toward Yang Qing’s face.
But Yang Qing had already been on guard and successfully dodged. The vase, flung with exhausted force, only landed on the ground.
After the crisp sound of the vase shattering rang out, Dong Xun bent down and swiftly picked up a sharp shard.
She had not thought of using a fragile, easily broken vase to stop three villains. But she could use a shard to end her own life.
After all…
She had originally already decided to die.
Dong Xun tightly gripped the sharp vase shard and pointed it toward Yang Qing, but in her mind, she was repeatedly simulating the motion of cutting the shard across the artery in her own neck.
Was it human instinct to fear pain and death?
At this final moment, Dong Xun actually felt somewhat hesitant.
Her gaze did not shift for even a moment, remaining fixed on Yang Qing’s disgusting face. Yet her mind uncontrollably thought of Wen Xin’s smiling face.
She was clearly thinking of Wen Xin in her mind.
But in reality, she did not dare move her eyes, did not dare look even once at Wen Xin on the ground.
Why did she not dare? What was she afraid of? In this instant, she could not come up with an answer.
At the final moment, Dong Xun gritted her teeth and was just about to press the sharp shard pointed at Yang Qing against her own neck.
Before she could make the next move, she had only just lifted her head when she saw that, at some unknown point, Wen Xin had climbed up from the ground and rushed over, holding a kitchen knife. From behind, she hacked it into Yang Qing’s shoulder.
Blood gushed out and instantly soaked through Yang Qing’s thin T-shirt.
“Come on! Whoever dares touch my wife, I’ll take her down with me.”
Wen Xin had been punched earlier, and her nose was bleeding, but she had no time to care. The blood had smeared over the lower half of her face just like that. Her sudden action stunned everyone in the room.
Those who wore shoes feared those who were barefoot.
Wen Xin was simply like a madwoman, holding the kitchen knife and attacking indiscriminately.
Yang Qing covered the wound on her shoulder and hurriedly retreated several steps, both shocked and furious for a moment. She had not expected that Wen Xin, who had always been a cowardly wimp, would actually go insane over an Omega she supposedly did not like.
She looked at the two followers behind her, who were standing there dumb as wooden chickens, and grew even angrier. “What are you two still standing there stupidly for? Come help! There are three of us. Are we really unable to handle one person? Today, I must chop off this bitch Wen Xin’s hand!”
Yang Qing had never suffered such a big fall before. Rage had completely replaced reason. Right now, all she could think about was taking revenge and making Wen Xin pay the price.
Seeing two people attack her at the same time, Wen Xin knew she definitely could not beat them.
She closed her eyes, hardened her heart—
Just as she was about to give up hope,
rescue finally arrived.
In truth, the moment she had entered the room and discovered uninvited guests inside, Wen Xin had immediately pulled Dong Xun behind her, leaving her space to escape.
She had even squeezed Dong Xun’s palm, hinting that she should run first and call the police.
Dong Xun had not run, but she had activated the smart terminal’s automatic alarm function with location attached.
That was why the police were able to arrive in time and quickly subdue Yang Qing and the other two.
Even after it was already safe, Wen Xin still had not recovered. Her expression was blank, and she clutched the knife in her hand tightly, not daring to let go.
Dong Xun lightly walked forward.
“It’s okay now. Put the knife down.”
Dong Xun’s voice was very, very light, as if she were afraid that even the slightest heaviness in her tone would frighten Wen Xin. As she spoke, she reached out and held Wen Xin’s hand, using that force to press the knife downward.
Wen Xin’s eyes gradually reddened. She loosened the strength in her hand, and the kitchen knife they had just bought from the supermarket fell onto the tile floor with a piercing clatter.
That sound seemed to flip some kind of switch.
At last, Wen Xin’s emotions completely lost control.
She tightly hugged Dong Xun and burst into tears with a loud wail.
