Transmigrating into a Scumbag Alpha, a Dainty Omega is Pregnant with My Child - Chapter 28.2

Jiang Cha opened her mouth slightly and took the shrimp. Through the thin transparent glove, Xiao Yun could feel the softness and warmth of her lips, and the sharpness of her teeth.

Xiao Yun recalled how the original owner had demanded Jiang Cha suck her finger, and when Jiang Cha submissively complied, she bit down hard enough to nearly sever the finger.

Xiao Yun’s voice trembled. “Is it good?” She pulled her hand back in fear.

She suddenly felt the question was a bit inappropriate. Xiao Yun pinched her own leg. It was all the fault of those “magnifying glass” fans that made everything they did feel like fanservice.

Jiang Cha swallowed and then chewed gently, like a kitten eating, while nodding. “Mhm, mhm.”

Xiao Yun got excited. “Sit here a bit, I’ll go buy some more good stuff.”

Before long, Xiao Yun returned with oysters, scallops, and grilled mutton skewers.

Jiang Cha sniffed happily. “Wow.”

“Never had this before?”

“Never.” Jiang Cha picked up a mutton skewer and took a light bite.

The mutton didn’t have a gamey smell; instead, it had a fresh, savory aroma. “So you actually like this stuff?”

Xiao Yun started on the oysters. “Not really.” After preparing an oyster, she handed it to Jiang Cha. “What I love most is still home-cooked food.”

Jiang Cha remembered what her mother had asked her: “What kind of dishes do you like?”

“Why, are you going to cook for me?” Xiao Yun sucked down a plump oyster, immersed in the flavor.

Even more delicious than the food was Jiang Cha’s sudden agreement: “I can cook.”

She didn’t know what was up with the Omega, but being this obedient made her feel uneasy.

Xiao Yun quickly changed the subject. After finishing the BBQ, the sun was just beginning to set.

The sunset dyed the sky and sea orange and the roses a gentle pink.

Jiang Cha had a smile on her face. In the orange light, she looked like a beautiful oil painting. The “painting” spoke: “Where to next?”

Xiao Yun’s brow twitched. She looked away from Jiang Cha’s face and glanced at a bike rental station in the distance. “Let’s go for a ride.”

With that, she stood up, and Jiang Cha followed close behind.

“I don’t know how to ride a bike.”

Jiang Cha hurried forward to walk beside her.

Xiao Yun slowed her pace. “I’ll teach you.”

“But it’s getting dark.”

They had to get back to their assigned villa by 7:00 PM; the cameras were waiting for them.

Xiao Yun slapped her forehead; she’d almost forgotten the “business” side of things.

But she really wanted to ride along the coast, feel the sea breeze, see the sunset, and feel the world transition from noisy to quiet.

She pointed to a white bicycle with a back seat and met Jiang Cha’s eyes. “Then, I’ll give you a ride?”

The shadow of the wheels rolled forward like two messy balls of yarn. Their shadows were overlapped tightly, as if they were leaning against each other.

Jiang Cha sat sideways, staring blankly at the shadows.

Xiao Yun watched the horizon where the sea met the sky and felt relaxed.

“Have you ever watched a sunset like this?”

“No.”

Jiang Cha tilted her head back to look at the orange sky. “The sunset is beautiful today.”

With the sea breeze blowing, her mood was exceptionally smooth.

Xiao Yun turned her head to respond while pedaling. “Mhm.”

She noticed Jiang Cha was lightly gripping the back seat, which seemed a bit dangerous. However, she felt awkward asking her to hold her waist, since in Jiang Cha’s eyes, she was still a dangerous Alpha.

If they were to be together for the long term, hiding the truth forever wasn’t an option.

But she hadn’t found the right chance to mention she was a Beta.

“Jiang Jiang,” Xiao Yun said suddenly. “I’m actually…”

Ugh, I can’t say it.

“What is it?”

“Does the back of your neck still hurt?” She changed the subject.

That Xia Yueyao was simply too malicious.

Thankfully, she’d flipped their boat; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to swallow that insult.

Jiang Cha’s voice was faint. “It’s fine. It was just a light touch. I’m not that fragile.”

After the competition, she could clearly smell Xiao Yun’s pheromones. Right now, they were becoming even stronger. It was still too early for the Omega’s heat cycle, so Jiang Cha didn’t think much of it.

They were close. Xiao Yun’s thin back was right in front of her. Through the semi-transparent shirt, she could see the bra straps inside. She felt her body becoming lightheaded from the sun.

“Yun Yun.”

Jiang Cha called her name.

“Yeah?” As Xiao Yun started to turn her head, she felt a cool cheek press against her back.

Through the thin fabric and skin, that coolness was piercingly cold.

Xiao Yun trembled all over.

Why did Jiang Cha lean on my back?

Extreme cold leads to heat; though she’d felt ice-cold a moment ago, Xiao Yun suddenly felt her back burning.

The wind was good, the scenery was good, but there was a buzzing sound of mosquitoes overhead.

Xiao Yun looked up. In the distance, a drone was flying toward them.

Dogs. The production crew are truly dogs.

Smart. Jiang Cha is truly smart.

How is she so good at acting?

Xiao Yun suddenly felt a rush of energy. She pedaled harder. “Honey, hold on tight!”

An indistinct “Mhm” came from behind—the voice was suggestive and melodious.

In Shun City, the ice and snow were melting. Xiao Jingliang watched the two of them getting along harmoniously and lovingly on the big screen, a kind and satisfied smile on his face.

Steward Mei said over the phone, “The Second Miss and Miss Jiang are very much in love, just like it says on the trending topics.”

“They went to see a romance movie together, ate street food, and the Second Miss gave Miss Jiang a ride to watch the sunset. It was very romantic.”

Xiao Jingliang nodded. “I saw. You don’t need to follow them too closely; don’t let her find out. As long as she isn’t out there causing trouble.”

Xiao Qing happened to walk by. She glanced at the screen, saw Xiao Jingliang’s beaming face, and her expression quickly darkened.

On the other end, Steward Mei stood with eight bodyguards behind her. She nodded. “Understood, Chairman.”

Xiao Jingliang hung up and called out to Xiao Qing. “Eldest daughter.”

Xiao Qing walked over. “Dad.”

“Your second sister’s incident has changed her a lot. I can see she really likes that Jiang Cha. This way, I’ll be able to hold a granddaughter soon.”

Xiao Qing’s mouth twitched, but she kept a smile on her face. “Yes, Xiao Yun is indeed very different this time.”

So different that she almost felt Xiao Yun was a different person. Or had she been playing the fool all along and was only now showing her true nature?

If so, Xiao Yun was a formidable opponent.

Xiao Jingliang didn’t know what she was thinking. He turned back and said, “If your second sister has news soon, as the eldest sister, you should also work harder.”

He kept his frustrations to himself; his eldest daughter-in-law had been in the family for five years and hadn’t produced so much as an egg. He was very dissatisfied.

Xiao Qing looked troubled. “My Omega’s body conditioning is almost done. Dad, don’t worry.”

Xiao Jingliang coughed. “I only have you three daughters, and all three are Alphas. Your third sister, Xiao Yu, is coming back to the country soon. If she comes back and has a child before you, what do you think you should do? You’re the eldest; you should set an example.” Xiao Jingliang was disappointed she wasn’t living up to expectations.

Xiao Qing’s face remained wooden. “I’ll keep that in mind.”

Xiao Jingliang patted her shoulder and walked out of the villa.

Her face darkened, and she quickly made a call, her tone stiff: “Find a few people and fly to Coconut Grove Island today. The sooner the better.”

“Boss, how many people?”

“Five or six will do.”

The sky was high and the Emperor was far away. Xiao Qing didn’t believe she couldn’t handle her second sister if no one was protecting her.

The drone didn’t disappear until they reached the villa.

Xiao Yun marveled at the production crew’s ability to create seamless transitions.

Liao Yanyan stood at the villa entrance with a thick-skinned smile to welcome them. As they arrived, she immediately had the cameras zoom in.

“Congratulations to both of you for winning first place! Tonight, the itinerary for the Yun-Jiang couple is: a candlelight dinner and a pool bath. The session will last about three hours. Are you two ready?”

While she spoke, Xiao Yun got off the bike. Jiang Cha leaned beside her and nodded seriously. “Ready.”

Xiao Yun had no objections and nodded as well.

As they walked, Xiao Yun asked, “Director, you won’t be filming the bedroom today, right?”

Liao Yanyan turned with a smile. “Of course not. On such a wonderful day, we’ll leave that to the two of you. we won’t be collecting footage there.”

Over the past two days, because of Jiang Cha’s high popularity, Liao Yanyan’s attitude had done a 180-degree turn, and the filming focus had shifted toward them.

Even as an investor, Beike Pharmaceuticals would still favor the more popular pair.

After all, their high popularity brought more ad exposure.

After inserting some “hard ads,” Liao Yanyan led the two on a tour of the villa.

The villa had four floors. The first and second floors were for bedrooms and reception, the third was for dining, and the top floor was a temperature-controlled swimming pool.

She introduced each area.

Xiao Yun followed behind her, her arm held by Jiang Cha.

She hadn’t noticed it yet, but Jiang Cha’s head was lightly resting against her arm.

Previously, Jiang Cha would hold hands or link arms, but she wouldn’t lean her head on her.

She looked over. Jiang Cha’s eyes were half-closed, her face forcing a smile. Her cheeks were flushed, and she was struggling to keep up.

Through the thin shirt, Xiao Yun could feel the heat from Jiang Cha’s forehead—a warm, soft weight rubbing against her arm.

Liao Yanyan was still droning on about the villa’s grandeur. Xiao Yun quickly interrupted: “Director, we just got back. Let’s head to the restroom first.”

“Oh, right, right.” Liao Yanyan was cut off, looking awkward.

Only then did Xiao Yun help Jiang Cha to the restroom.

The camera followed them right up to the door. Xiao Yun slowly lowered her hand from her shoulder. Jiang Cha’s legs went weak, and she nearly collapsed in front of the mirror.

Xiao Yun’s hand quickly gripped her waist. The Omega’s waist was so slender that she could hold it with one hand. If she used even a little force, she could easily overpower her fragile body.

She only held her lightly, but the Omega’s gaze was as cold as a frozen lake. The Omega quickly used her small hands to push away the large hand.

She pushed her away. “I’m fine.”

Her voice was soft. “It was just too much sun on the road. I’ll be fine after a little rest.”

Xiao Yun didn’t pull away. As a doctor, seeing a sickly person always triggered her “savior complex.” She pulled the Omega close again and lightly touched her forehead with the back of her hand.

“The temperature isn’t very high, but just in case, I’ll get you some heatstroke medicine.”

When her hand moved away from her forehead, the Omega’s watery almond eyes stared at her. Their eyes met, and Jiang Cha turned her face away. “Mhm.”

Xiao Yun added, “Looking at you, you shouldn’t be exhausted for too long. How about we skip the filming tonight? You should get some rest.”

She turned to leave, but Jiang Cha grabbed her arm. “No, tonight is very important. We have to film.”

Why so stubborn? Xiao Yun turned back. “Is there anything more important than your health?”

Her voice carried the natural sternness of the original owner, but her gaze was gentle. “Jiang Cha, take a night off.”

Jiang Cha’s eyelashes lowered, casting a shadow like raven feathers over her eyelids, the contrast of light and dark sharp on her face.

After a long moment, she let out a faint sigh. “You don’t understand. In our industry, one wrong step leads to many more.”

It wasn’t easy to regain her popularity. The audience’s most anticipated “night at the villa”—how could they not film it just because of a simple fever?

Furthermore, she still had her beloved ex-wife to save.

Xiao Yun felt that arguing was futile.

She retracted her doctorly concern. “Wait a moment.”

Three minutes later, Xiao Yun returned with a glass of water and some medicine.

Jiang Cha was leaning against the wall, her face pale.

“Come out. You can’t take medicine in the bathroom.”

Jiang Cha’s eyelids fluttered as she looked around.

Xiao Yun eased her worries: “I’ve settled it with the production crew. We’ll start in an hour.”

Jiang Cha breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked out along the wall.

“I’ll help you.”

Xiao Yun’s hand hovered near her shoulder.

“No need,” Jiang Cha said coldly.

She remained wary of her, especially when she was sick and vulnerable.

Xiao Yun didn’t mind. The filming over the past two days had forced them into too much intimacy; it was normal for Jiang Cha’s body to have a strong reaction.

Plus, she had almost forcibly marked her before.

There were always shadows in her heart.

Xiao Yun reached out and handed over the medicine and water. “Take the medicine first.”

Like a kitten, Jiang Cha picked up the pills and took them one by one. There were five in total, and she took a sip of water with each. After several gulps, Jiang Cha finally finished the medicine and lay down crookedly on the bed.

Xiao Yun stood up and tucked the thin blanket around her. Seeing a few droplets of water on her lip—like dew on a rose petal—her “OCD” kicked in.

But she restrained herself until Jiang Cha fell asleep. Only then did she take a tissue and carefully step forward to gently dab the water from her lip.

Xiao Yun felt like a thief, fearing that the little ancestor might suddenly wake up—that would be a huge misunderstanding. She’d definitely be labeled a pervert.

Her hand lingered gently near her lips. For a moment, she thought Jiang Cha had stopped breathing. After waiting a long while, a small puff of warm air came from her nose. Xiao Yun finally withdrew her hand and let out a sigh of relief.

An hour later, Jiang Cha’s fever had mostly subsided. When she opened her eyes, Xiao Yun walked over and checked her forehead with the back of her hand.

Her fingers moved away from the forehead, which was as smooth as jade.

Jiang Cha took a breath and sat up. Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, covering her body. She still looked a bit listless.

“We’re not filming.”

Xiao Yun saw how pale she was. “You need rest.”

Jiang Cha didn’t answer. She ignored her words entirely, got out of bed, and found a very sexy black swimsuit in her suitcase.

As she passed Xiao Yun with the swimsuit, she stopped, like a kitten looking up at her. “You should go change too. I’m fine.”

Entering the bathroom, Jiang Cha locked the door. Memories flooded her mind—sometimes it was a black dog stealing her teddy bear, sometimes it was her father looking fierce with another woman, sometimes it was Li Rang being taken away at the wedding, or Xiao Yun rushing at her to mark her on their wedding night.

All the images merged into one: her mother’s face.

“Cha Cha, don’t easily trust others. No matter how good they were to you before, they aren’t trustworthy until their fangs are revealed. You must learn to protect yourself.”

“Women are like water, especially Omegas. You need to be outwardly submissive; otherwise, how will you gain the other person’s trust? Strike a fatal blow when the time is right.”

“Just like that black dog—if you don’t give it something good to eat, how will it give you the chance to kill it?”

“You are an S-class Omega, a rare treasure. You are destined to be fought over by other Alphas. It’s not that they love you; it’s because you have the best genes to produce high-quality offspring for an S-class Alpha. During your heat, you emit the most intoxicating and hallucinogenic pheromones. You must learn to protect yourself.”

Maddening pheromones—everyone wanted them.

Jiang Cha gasped. Her mother had been very blunt: sexually, she could provide Alphas with an intense experience.

Fit to breed and fit to use. How ridiculous.

She looked at herself in the mirror and shook her head, wondering why such messy thoughts were surfacing.

Then, she opened the door. Xiao Yun had changed into a pure white one-piece swimsuit. Her figure was slender and graceful. She was facing away, tying her hair up high, revealing the blue semi-transparent blocker patch on the back of her neck.

“Finished changing?” Xiao Yun bit the hair tie and turned to look at her.

Jiang Cha nodded, a silk scarf draped over her shoulders to hide her good figure.

Xiao Yun’s eyes didn’t linger on her. “If you’re ready, let’s go out.”

Jiang Cha felt a bit weak, and another thought flashed in her mind.

Before a hunter strikes, they wait for their chance.

Why did Xiao Yun choose to marry her? Why not someone else?

Jiang Cha felt like her brain was mush, and her body began to heat up. She didn’t know why her thoughts were wandering.

She clenched her fists and shook her head hard.

“Let’s go.”

Beside her, Xiao Yun extended her long arm, wrist out, for her to lean on.

Jiang Cha hesitated for a moment, ignored her, and walked straight out the door.

Xiao Yun thought to herself: What’s up with this little ancestor?

When they reached the pool, the cameras were in position. Jiang Cha stood by the edge. The pool water shimmered, reflecting blue light onto her face, which made her look even colder.

Even though she was wearing a swimsuit, she wrapped her chest and back tightly with the scarf as if guarding against a wolf, only showing her snow-white calves.

Because the cameras were on, Xiao Yun stepped forward and crouched beside her.

She splashed the water a few times with her pale hand. “The water isn’t cold. Come in.”

Xiao Yun turned to look at her, thinking that they needed to put on a good show for the cameras.

Despite her coaxing, Jiang Cha remained seated. Her voice was slow: “You go in first.”

Xiao Yun paused, then decided to go first.

Her long legs dipped into the water, and she slipped smoothly in. The pool was shallow, coming up to Xiao Yun’s chest. The water rippled around her vaguely visible cleavage.

Xiao Yun reached out to Jiang Cha. Her Alpha pheromones began to spread through the pool water.

Jiang Cha looked away from her chest and bit her lip. Ignoring her hand, she held the railing and slowly walked down into the pool.

The great beauty simply ignored her and got into the water, finding a comfortable spot to look at the surrounding scenery.

Liao Yanyan frowned and whispered to the cameraman: “Did the couple have a fight?”

“Looks like it. Jiang Cha is ignoring her.”

The whispering reached Xiao Yun’s ears. She couldn’t hear clearly, but she could guess what the crew was thinking.

Are we not going to interact in the pool at all?

Xiao Yun didn’t know what Jiang Cha was thinking as she watched that small back treading through the water.

When Jiang Cha saw her approaching, she leaned slightly into a corner.

So, as Xiao Yun swam toward her, she would swim away.

Eventually, Jiang Cha was cornered.

Xiao Yun used both hands to trap her in the corner.

“What’s wrong with you today? Are you angry?”

Xiao Yun whispered to Jiang Cha while covering her mic.

Jiang Cha was in a defensive posture, arms crossed over her chest, as if fearing she would come any closer.

“N-No. Go swim over there.”

As soon as Xiao Yun got close, the water around her became warm, and the back of her neck began to ache slightly.

“Oh.” Xiao Yun stood there looking at her for a moment, her cool eyes filled with doubt, before swimming away.

Liao Yanyan saw the oddness. “Cameras, get every detail!” A couple’s quarrel would be another wave of traffic.

The director didn’t mind a bit of drama. After watching for a while, she immediately called a waiter.

“Hello, how can I help you?”

“Get two glasses of red wine and a fruit platter.”

“Certainly, please wait a moment.”

Soon, the fruit and wine arrived.

Xiao Yun swam to the edge. Liao Yanyan called out to her, “Miss Xiao.”

“This red wine and fruit are for you two.”

Xiao Yun glanced at Jiang Cha. “She just took fever medicine; she can’t drink.”

Liao Yanyan smiled. “Then feed her some fruit. The audience wants to see you two interact in the pool, not bathing separately.”

Xiao Yun was in a bind and had to take the fruit platter back toward Jiang Cha.

The Alpha pheromones approached again. The handsome woman stood beside her, her breath tickling her ear.

She shrank her body, her eyes darting to the other side.

“Jiang Jiang.”

The Alpha spoke softly to her.

“Have some watermelon.”

It would help cool her down.

Jiang Cha only felt the back of her neck becoming increasingly uncomfortable. “I’m not eating.”

Xiao Yun coughed and leaned in closer, her breath warm. Her low voice was very sexy. “Have some. They’re all watching.”

The Alpha’s aura pressed in. For a moment, Jiang Cha’s mind blurred, triggering bad memories. She reached out and pushed lightly. “I said, I’m not eating.”

The fruit platter was knocked over into the pool. Watermelon pieces fell one by one into the water, floating near Xiao Yun’s feet. She looked up in surprise. Jiang Cha’s hazy eyes were shimmering with the blue water light as she stared into her eyes. “S-Sorry.”

Jiang Cha’s face was flushed, and her body temperature suddenly became scalding. The scent of roses from her neck began to spread, more delicious and intense than usual.

Then, Jiang Cha’s legs went weak. Her entire body lunged forward onto Xiao Yun, her hands grabbing her flat chest. In an instant, Xiao Yun felt her become hot and soft, while her own heart became chaotic and numb.

Jiang Cha was in heat.

Author’s Note:

Xiao Yun: “She’s in heat! Get the suppressants quickly!”

Jiang Cha: “Why isn’t this ‘Cloud’ marking me?”
