What Kind Of Unparalleled Scumbag Alpha Is This? [Transmigration Into A Book] - Chapter 3
“Ah, I can’t sleep anymore!” Ou Bailing sat up irritably on the bed.
“What’s wrong, Host?” The little bee buzzed around in front of her.
“Little Bee,” Ou Bailing said gloomily, “I feel this inexplicable restlessness inside me. Every time I close my eyes, I see Fu Mingge. She keeps seducing me in my head…”
“That’s normal. It’s because you’re in rut right now.”
“What? I-I’m in rut??” For some reason, Ou Bailing found the term incredibly embarrassing, like a cat in the neighborhood yowling for a mate.
Time for a little lesson!
The little bee waved a pointer in front of a blackboard. “In the ABO world, going into heat or rut is completely normal. Alphas and Omegas usually have regular cycles. But occasionally, unexpected situations can occur. For example, if someone nearby is in heat and releases pheromones, then if the two people have a high compatibility rate, those pheromones may trigger the other person’s cycle as well.”
“So I was induced into rut?” Ou Bailing asked with her big eyes wide open.
“Yes, Host. Fu Mingge induced your rut.”
“Oh!” Ou Bailing suddenly remembered something. “Wasn’t Fu Mingge in heat back then? After she knocked me unconscious, where did she go? Did she just walk out like that? Wouldn’t she have been in danger? What if some other Alpha picked her up? Could she have been…”
Ou Bailing fired off question after question in rapid succession.
The little bee summed up its answer in three words.
“She is fine.”
“Oh, right! She’s the female lead.” Ou Bailing quickly convinced herself. “She has protagonist halo.”
The system badly wanted to tell her that it had nothing to do with any protagonist halo. It had been the one to give Fu Mingge a suppressant.
While they were talking, her phone rang.
Ou Bailing picked it up and saw the name “Lü Shiman” flashing on the screen. The image of a frail, delicate girl passed through her mind. Her finger slipped, and she answered the call.
“Hello? What’s up?”
“Ah, Sister, w-where did you go? Why haven’t you come home yet?”
“Me?” Ou Bailing instinctively glanced out the window. It was already dark outside. “I’m at a hotel.”
“You’re at a hotel?” Lü Shiman spoke very quietly on the other end, as if she were covering her mouth and whispering. “I-I’m already home. Hurry back. Dad is really angry that you’re still not home this late…”
Ou Bailing imitated her and lowered her voice too. “Okaaay. I’ll be back soon…”
The little bee crossed its arms beside her and rolled its eyes.
There seemed to be something seriously wrong with this host.
After hanging up, Ou Bailing got out of bed and prepared to go home.
“Ou Bailing!”
The moment she got home, she was immediately subjected to a scolding from her dear older brother, Ou Baisong.
“What were you doing? How could you only come home now?”
Ou Bailing was a little tired and planned to eat something before going back to her room to sleep. Faced with this inexplicably angry older brother, she really didn’t feel like responding.
“You!”
Seeing her ignore him, Ou Baisong nearly died of anger and immediately tattled.
“Dad! She’s back!”
Their biological father, Ou Jun, came out. The moment he saw her, his eyes widened as he demanded, “So you still know how to come home? Where were you fooling around?”
Ou Bailing found their hostility toward her completely baffling.
Still, she couldn’t exactly blame them.
The original Ou Bailing had always behaved erratically and unpredictably, causing plenty of trouble outside. Her dear older brother and old father had cleaned up countless messes after her, so now, whenever she came home late, they naturally assumed the worst.
Lü Shiman and her mother, Lü Yan, came out as well.
The two of them and the three members of the Ou family formed a blended family. Since the others were disciplining their daughter, they didn’t feel it was appropriate to interfere.
Lü Shiman looked at Ou Bailing and noticed the red marks all over her neck.
Surprised, she asked, “Sister, what happened to your neck?”
At her reminder, everyone’s eyes immediately turned toward Ou Bailing’s neck.
Lü Shiman might not have known those were hickeys, but did everyone else really not know?
“Well, well!” Ou Jun immediately flew into a rage. “You shameless thing! Who did you go fooling around with this time? I’m warning you—if you bully some Omega and get yourself thrown into prison, I’ll pretend I never had a daughter like you!”
Ou Baisong immediately followed, “And I’ll pretend I never had a sister like you!”
“Aii—”
Ou Bailing heaved a long sigh.
“You guys are so annoying. I didn’t bully any Omega.”
She would have liked to, sure, but hadn’t she gotten knocked unconscious?
Her head still hurt.
“You!” Ou Jun pointed at her. “And you still think you’re in the right, huh?”
Ou Bailing looked at her father’s aging face.
He wore a pair of reading glasses and had maintained his figure fairly well, without the typical middle-aged weight gain. His entire body radiated the imposing aura of someone accustomed to authority.
At that moment, he was glaring furiously at her.
“I’m warning you. If you cause any more trouble, you’d better watch yourself!”
Ou Bailing walked over to Lü Shiman and abruptly placed both hands on her shoulders.
Lü Shiman jumped in fright and looked at her nervously.
“S-Sister, what are you doing?”
“What are you doing? Let go of her!”
The moment Ou Baisong saw this, he rushed forward, pulled Ou Bailing’s hands away, and shoved at her while cursing.
“She’s legally your younger sister, and you still want to lay your hands on her?! You animal!”
“Manman!”
Lü Yan hurried over and pulled her daughter protectively toward herself, watching Ou Bailing warily, unsure what she intended to do.
Ou Jun angrily pointed at her.
“You bastard! Have you completely rebelled against us? What are you trying to do? In front of all these people, you still want to bully your younger sister?”
“Who bullied her?”
Ou Bailing shook off her older brother’s hand.
She was surprisingly strong, easily throwing off her frail older brother.
Ou Baisong was also an Alpha, but his constitution was weaker, and he didn’t possess Ou Bailing’s natural brute strength.
After being thrown aside, he stared at her in shock.
Ou Bailing grumbled, “I just think she feels familiar and wanted to be a little closer to her. Is that not allowed?”
“You want to get closer to her? Have you forgotten what you are?” Ou Baisong pointed at her. “I’m warning you, stay away from Manman from now on! You heartless thing!”
“Okay, okay.”
Ou Bailing raised both hands and shrugged helplessly.
“Then stop interfering with my business too. I’m already an adult. Give me a little freedom, will you, big… bro.”
Ou Bailing still hadn’t fully adjusted to the ABO world.
She only remembered that she was a woman, Lü Shiman was also a woman, and they were sisters.
She had forgotten that she was an Alpha while Lü Shiman was an Omega.
For her to behave so intimately toward Lü Shiman was practically sexual harassment.
“Unfilial daughter!” Her father pointed at her. “If we didn’t keep you under control, wouldn’t you turn the whole world upside down?! Cough, cough!”
Ou Jun nearly made himself sick from anger again.
Lü Shiman spoke up in Ou Bailing’s defense.
“Sister didn’t mean to do anything to me…”
“See?” Ou Bailing said helplessly. “Even the person involved says so. Stop making such a big deal out of nothing.”
Ou Baisong said to Lü Shiman, “Manman, don’t speak up for her. She’s a wolf that devours people whole!”
“Oh my.”
Ou Bailing suddenly remembered a line from a movie.
“Prejudice in people’s hearts is like a great mountain! All right, enough. Nothing more to say. Wash up and go to bed.”
With that, she waved goodbye to them and headed upstairs on her own.
The four people left downstairs looked at one another, all somewhat dumbfounded.
Although this household was usually thrown into complete chaos every day, today’s confrontation had somehow been relatively peaceful.
“Mom,” Lü Shiman finally spoke, “I feel like Sister is… different from usual. She was fishing by the lake today and accidentally fell into the water. After she was rescued, she seemed like she couldn’t even remember who she was…”
“What?”
The other three were startled.
“She fell into the water?”
“Yeah.” Lü Shiman had spent the entire evening feeling guilty for coming home ahead of Ou Bailing and hadn’t had a chance to explain what had happened. Only now did she tell them. “She seemed to have lost her memory. She didn’t even remember me and asked me who she was…”
“Amnesia?” Ou Baisong immediately refused to believe it. “She was pretending, wasn’t she? Didn’t she just recognize all of us perfectly well?”
“I’m not sure either,” Lü Shiman said weakly. “Maybe it was temporary amnesia, and she remembered afterward…”
“Big Brother,” Lü Yan said to Ou Jun, “why don’t we observe her for a while? That child doesn’t seem as gloomy or violent as usual today. Perhaps she really has changed.”
Ou Jun wasn’t sure either, but he still didn’t believe it.
He snorted coldly.
“She changed? The sun would sooner rise in the west!”
Ou Baisong said to his father, “If she causes trouble again, just beat her once and she’ll behave.”
“Aiya.”
As Ou Bailing went upstairs, she lamented, “I never expected my relationship with my family to be this terrible. The moment I come home, everyone starts talking about beating and killing me. What’s with that?”
“Host, you originally have the setting of a scumbag Alpha. You’re supposed to be ruthless and calculating.”
“But I don’t know how! I’m a very good person—nya!”
“……”
Ou Bailing returned to her room.
Seeing that it was quite large and spacious, she was rather satisfied.
She plopped down onto the sofa at the foot of the bed and asked the system, “Hey, System, do the female lead and I have an engagement?”
“No.”
“Then who is the female lead engaged to?”
“For now, she isn’t engaged to anyone.”
“Hey, then doesn’t that mean I can pursue her?”
“Theoretically, yes. But this time, you cannot cause the female lead’s death. If the female lead dies, this novel will have a BE.”
“This is an ABO yuri novel…” Ou Bailing murmured.
Then, whether she was talking to herself or asking the system, she continued, “If it’s a yuri novel, then who’s the other female lead?”
The system replied, “The other female lead hasn’t appeared yet.”
“So I’m the scumbag Alpha who appears before the other female lead? I steal Fu Mingge away, and then later she dies because of me, so she never gets to meet the person she’s destined for. Is that it?”
“Yes, Host.”
“Bingo! I guessed right!”
Ou Bailing suddenly became full of motivation.
She sprang up from the sofa, planted both hands on her hips, and laughed loudly.
“This is the reason I transmigrated here! Hiahiahiahiahia…”
System: Often rendered speechless by the Host’s intermittent bouts of insanity.
“Oh, right.” Ou Bailing spoke to the system again. “So from now on, I don’t have to do that whole thing where I use underhanded methods to seduce the beautiful, generous, gentle, harmless female lead into becoming mine, right? After all, I have to make way for the future female lead. Even though I’m a little reluctant to give up the beautiful, generous, gentle, harmless female lead, if I want to go home, I guess I have no choice.”
The entire latter half was basically her muttering to herself.
The system ignored it completely and answered only the first part.
“That’s right, Host. You need to turn over a new leaf and become a good person.”
“But won’t that make me act out of character?” Ou Bailing immediately had another question. “Aren’t I supposed to be a scumbag Alpha? Don’t I have to be scummy?”
“You can be scummy toward other people,” the system told her.
“That’s allowed too?”
Ou Bailing didn’t really understand.
She suddenly yawned and only then realized she was tired.
“All right, I’m sleepy. We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Ou Bailing first went to take a nice, relaxing shower.
Afterward, she stood at the sink brushing her teeth.
When she saw the hickeys on her neck in the mirror, the image of Fu Mingge holding her and pressing close against her flashed through her mind again.
What a warm, fragrant, soft beauty!
Just thinking about it made Ou Bailing’s entire body heat up.
Sigh.
Such a beautiful Sister…
Why couldn’t she belong to her?
Why couldn’t Ou Bailing be the female lead instead?!
