Returning to the Villain Omega's High School Days - Chapter 4

Xie Ning finished the book quickly. The further she read, the more her blood ran cold, her body chilled with fury, and her eyes burned.

Everything written about her in the book was true, including falling in love with Su Xingheng at first sight, her assault on Su Wan that caused her miscarriage, and her miserable second half of life—her debt-ridden, unrecognizable state matched the book’s description.

She was plunged into a state of immense doubt and panic. Was she just a puppet on a string? Did she not have her own thoughts and consciousness?

No, something must be wrong!

Xie Ning thought about it. The book was around 150,000 characters, primarily detailing the life of the “chosen one,” Su Xingheng. The descriptions of Su Wan were more subtle, and as a secondary character to a supporting character, Xie Ning was given even less space.

One thing was for sure: everything described in the book would happen no matter what. However, in the parts of her life that the book didn’t describe, Xie Ning was completely free and independent.

For example, when Xie Ning suddenly went crazy and hit Su Wan, it wasn’t a multiple personality disorder. It was fate forcing her to follow the plot.

On the other hand, the book never described the happiest time Xie Ning and Su Wan had together, which was when Xie Ning was most genuinely herself.

As for her ending, the book described it from Su Wan’s perspective.

Original text:

Su Wan learned of Xie Ning’s death from Su Xingheng. She heard that Xie Ning was hit by a truck and killed instantly. Su Xingheng laughed and said, “That scumbag is dead. You must be happy, right? I heard it was a tragic accident; she died on the spot. It’s a bit too easy for a person like her.”

Su Wan asked him with a blank expression, “Xie Ning never hurt you. Why do you say that about her?”

Su Xingheng felt it was boring. He just wanted to see what Su Wan’s reaction would be, but she showed no emotion. After he left, Su Wan sat at her desk, staring at a blank Word document, unable to type a single word all day. She knew the accident happened on Xie Ning’s birthday. Shortly before that, she had run into Xie Ning. If only she hadn’t said such harsh words.

After reading this part, Xie Ning’s anger subsided a bit. She traced the words with her finger, thinking, “Su Wan really is so kind and gentle.”

But gentle people were always hurt by this world. Su Wan, like her, was just a supporting character in this book. All her misfortunes were meant to highlight the protagonist’s greatness. Yet, even so, Su Wan was never defeated.

She worked her way up, left Xie Ning, and continued to fight in the mud. After years of endurance, she sought revenge…

Because her role was that of the main villain, the nemesis of Su Xingheng, the only person who could deliver a fatal blow to the chosen one.

According to the book’s plot, after Xie Ning’s death, Su Wan finally decided she couldn’t wait any longer. She confronted Su Xingheng directly and revealed the following things, which were enough to cause him fatal damage:

The first thing: Of Su Xingheng’s three wives, the sons born to his first and second wives were not his. Su Wan had injected them with someone else’s sperm. How could she be so sure they weren’t his? Because she had also been giving Su Xingheng oral contraceptives for Alphas, mixed into his food every day. As for his third wife, since she had never harmed Su Wan, she was spared. The third wife had two daughters with Su Xingheng and gave birth to a son two years ago, but Su Wan had swapped the baby at the hospital.

Su Xingheng was trembling with rage. He was tied to a chair with tape over his mouth, his teeth gritted in hatred for Su Wan. Su Wan wasn’t just there to provoke him; she was holding a knife, its cold light reflected in her eyes, filled with murderous intent.

At that moment, Su Xingheng had no idea that Su Wan had hated him enough to want to kill him a million times over. That’s why she had gone to such great lengths to hide her true self, to endure the malice from the outside world, to tolerate unnecessary pain, and to put on a sheep’s clothing, only to reveal her fangs at the end. All she wanted was to kill Su Xingheng in one swift blow, but she had so many things to confront him with.

The second thing she talked about was the distribution of the Su family’s assets. She was very pleased that Su Xingheng hadn’t let her hold any family stocks because she had already shorted the Su family’s stock. As the stock plummeted, Su Xingheng would become bankrupt and penniless overnight.

This was exactly what Su Xingheng had done to the Xie family. When the Su family faced a crisis, they relied on Su Wan’s marriage to the Xie family and their financial support to get through it. When the Su family became powerful, Su Xingheng completely forgot about this.

Old Man Xie was initially very willing to support the Su family. If Xie Ning hadn’t differentiated into an Alpha, he would have preferred Su Xingheng as his son-in-law. Su Xingheng was a person who believed himself to be righteous. When Old Man Xie confided in him about the management problems of the Xie family’s business and that they were even faking their financials, Su Xingheng thought, “A business this chaotic and their stock is still worth so much? The Xie family is bound to fail eventually.” He immediately sold the information to a short-selling firm.

After that, the Xie family’s business never recovered, and Xie Ning’s multi-million-yuan fortune vanished overnight. Oh, by the way, if the book hadn’t described this in detail, Xie Ning would have never known that it was Su Xingheng who sold out the Xie family. Su Wan knew, but she never told Xie Ning.

The third thing Su Wan said was about Liu Ya.

The reason she hated Su Xingheng so much and endured so many years by his side was to avenge her sister, Liu Ya. By blood, Liu Ya was not Su Wan’s biological sister. She was the sixth child of her foster parents but the best gift they had ever given Su Wan.

Liu Ya was two years younger than Su Wan. Su Wan had looked after her since she couldn’t walk. It was a child caring for a child, humming lullabies and feeding her milk. Sometimes, when Su Wan fell while holding her, both of them would cry, but Liu Ya would stop crying when she saw Su Wan’s tears.

Because of Su Wan, Liu Ya came to Rongcheng and met Su Xingheng. Like all the girls who met Su Xingheng, she became hopelessly and crazily infatuated with him. How could a simple country girl ever be noticed by a protagonist like Su Xingheng?

But Su Xingheng really did have a soft spot for her. He praised Liu Ya’s innocence and gave her gifts, and a seed that was never meant to grow into a big tree sprouted in Liu Ya’s heart.

Fifteen-year-old Liu Ya spent all her days thinking about how to please Su Xingheng and how to get rid of her country-girl demeanor and enter his circle. She became more and more beautiful, and then Su Xingheng’s group of friends noticed her.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were a minor. You don’t look fifteen at all.”

After it happened, the perpetrator said this in a flippant manner. Liu Ya had been “marked” by him, even though she hadn’t even differentiated yet!

“Yaya, my friend did something wrong, but he was drunk. In that situation, you should be able to forgive him, right?”

Su Xingheng’s words left Liu Ya speechless. She was stunned for a long time before she could say, “But… I… I… I thought… I thought, Brother Xingheng, weren’t we dating?”

If they were dating, Su Xingheng should have been angry and sad for her and should have sought justice for her. But instead… he was asking her to forgive?

Forgive?!

Liu Ya’s entire world collapsed. Su Xingheng looked at her strangely and finally said, “I’m sorry, Yaya, I didn’t think you would see it that way…”

Su Xingheng gave her all kinds of gifts, waited for her after school, and took her out on holidays. Even the fake sister in his family was secretly jealous. To the naive Liu Ya, Su Xingheng’s actions at the time were a clear sign that he was pursuing her. She never expected that in the end, Su Xingheng would beg for mercy on behalf of his friend and ask her to forgive that bastard?!

How could she?!

But… he was Su Xingheng. He was the Su Xingheng whom Liu Ya loved most. All her efforts were for the sake of being with him! Just being able to stand in front of him and look up at this god-like man was enough for her.

It was her own fault for being so presumptuous. How could a mere mortal dare to lust after a god?!

Liu Ya was so desperate. She didn’t dare tell anyone what happened to her, not even Su Wan, until a half-month later, when Su Wan learned from a teacher that Liu Ya had dropped out of school. Only then did Su Wan realize something terrible had happened.

Su Wan was preparing for her college entrance exams at the time, but she took a leave of absence and went back to her hometown to find Liu Ya. Holding Liu Ya’s hand, she told her, “You have to report this to the police.” She stayed up all night, talking to Liu Ya and convincing her. Before dawn, she took her in a rideshare back to Rongcheng.

When Liu Ya finally gathered the courage to walk into the police station with Su Wan, she overheard Su Xingheng defending his friend to the officer.

“My friend didn’t know; he thought the girl was of age. And that girl has a very casual personality; she often accepts gifts from people, so he naturally assumed she was willing.”

“And she didn’t refuse at all, okay? She usually dresses very… how should I put it, very flirtatiously. Who dresses like that at fifteen? My sister wears her school uniform every day. It’s hard not to suspect she was trying to seduce him. Here are some photos of us hanging out; you can see she even actively leans on men.”

“…”

The door to the interrogation room was open, and Liu Ya heard Su Xingheng’s words unexpectedly. She dared not move forward and wouldn’t let Su Wan interrupt them. She just clutched Su Wan’s hand tightly, tears streaming down her face, and said in a hoarse, choking voice, “Let’s go.”

Su Wan later found out that on that night, Liu Ya had mistaken that man for Su Xingheng, which was why she didn’t refuse him. She had been drinking and thought it was just a casual encounter. She never expected him to forcibly mark her.

Liu Ya stopped speaking. She only told Su Wan about what happened to her, but the news spread like wildfire, with people making fun of her.

“I’ve always disliked her. She’s only fifteen, but she dresses like a heat-crazed Omega. Who’s to blame but herself?!”

“The Su family’s young master is so unlucky. He was just trying to help a poor girl from the mountains, but she almost latched onto him. Good thing it wasn’t the Su family’s young master who did it!”

“Ugh, she deserved it!”

On top of all that, Liu Ya’s scent gland was damaged from the forced marking. If she didn’t have surgery in time, it would prevent her from differentiating and she would lose her fertility forever.

So Su Wan stayed with Liu Ya in the hospital for her surgery, studying for her exams by her bedside. After the surgery, Liu Ya said she wanted to go back to her hometown. Su Wan didn’t want to go back to face her adoptive parents. After several failed attempts to persuade her, she could only let her go.

This became one of Su Wan’s biggest regrets.

Su Wan didn’t get into a top university but went to the best school in the province, while Liu Ya stayed in the mountains for a few years and returned to Rongcheng a completely different person. Her surgery didn’t heal well, and she had dropped out of school. She couldn’t do anything in the village, so her family lied about her age to set her up with dates.

After many failed attempts, her family realized Liu Ya was a lost cause and started tricking her into going with the village pimp. In the countryside, getting married was expensive, and several of her brothers were still unmarried, so they wanted to earn whatever they could.

After a few years of this aimless life, Liu Ya got sick. “Go ask your sister for money. You two are the closest. Isn’t she rich now that she’s in the Su family?”

In reality, Su Wan had worked to pay for her living expenses in college. The Su family only paid her tuition and would “forget” to give her an allowance unless Su Wan asked for it.

But even so, she used her scholarship money to pay for Liu Ya’s hospital bills and borrowed from friends to get her the treatment she needed. If it still wasn’t enough, she would have no choice but to ask Su Xingheng. Liu Ya’s situation was his fault.

But she didn’t know that before she made that decision, Liu Ya had already called Su Xingheng. She didn’t ask him for anything; she just begged him to come see her one last time.

“Okay, since we were friends once,” Su Xingheng had laughed and agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Ya climbed to the hospital roof, went over the railing, and fell to her death.
