After Cannon Fodder A Accidentally Marked the Cold Film Queen - Chapter 3

The warning current emitted by the System finally stopped.

The numbing sensation from the current faded, and a small part of Zhu Songning’s consciousness returned, yet she more clearly felt the room’s temperature climbing rapidly.

The Alpha’s pheromone was a complex green floral scent—galbanum mixed with bergamot, smelling sexy yet restrained, cold-hearted yet fragile.

The floral and tea scents intertwined like two threads, wrapping tighter and tighter, eventually becoming inseparable and fused together.

So this is what mutual pheromone soothing felt like.

Zhu Songning leaned her back against the cold wall, her left hand supporting the Omega’s slender waist to prevent them from slipping down from exhaustion.

She closed her eyes, letting the gland at the back of her neck heat up and swell, quietly feeling her skin drenched in the Omega’s jasmine tea scent.

Not only that, their clothes were a mess too. Garments were discarded along the darkness onto the floor. The scarf was carelessly pulled off by the Omega’s hand and flew far away into the corridor outside the suite.

“Dear sister…” Her fingers on the other person’s waist tightened, and her hoarse voice carried a heavy bite, “If we continue like this, I won’t be able to stop.”

She wasn’t one of those saints who could sit still when tempted.

Humans are the sum of desires. Desire, craving, eternal expansion, seeking, and spread—these have always run through a human’s life.

She was just a mortal, and naturally no exception.

This was practically testing her already weak willpower with sheer beauty.

However, the Omega in front of her seemed not to have heard what she said, still staring straight at her with those soul-capturing eyes.

The crimson corners of their eyes trembled with the rising and falling of their eyelashes, burning like fire.

“…”

Seeing the person’s look of complete irrationality, Zhu Songning let out a long sigh.

“I understand.”

She helplessly lowered her head, withdrawing the right hand the Omega had been gripping tightly.

Turning her head, she bit the edge of her white glove and pulled it off.

Zhu Songning’s breathing was still heavy, mixed with a few gasps.

Perhaps because she was holding the glove in her mouth, her voice was muffled when she spoke, sticky like a flirtatious tone.

“At least close the door first… we shouldn’t be doing this in a public place…”

Zhu Songning didn’t expect the other person to give any effective response. But this time, the Omega seemed to understand her words and swiftly grabbed the doorknob beside them.

The suite door clicked shut and was locked.

“…?”

Her brain briefly overloaded but was too overheated to engage in rational deduction and thought.

She just vaguely wondered.

Didn’t this person… still have a bit of clear consciousness?

Why did they ignore her suggestion to stop just now?

She was currently facing away from the door and was perplexed by the Omega’s abnormal reaction, naturally missing the moment the door closed—

The Omega rested their head on her shoulder, a curtain of long black hair like seaweed covering their tightly intertwined bodies.

And the beauty who should have been groggy was tilting their head, offering a provocative smile towards the outside of the door.

Lu Conghuan had just walked up the stairs when this scene came into view.

In the bright corridor, only the room in that spot was completely dark inside, and she could vaguely see the silhouettes of two people behind the door.

For some reason, she suspiciously felt that the Alpha’s back looked a bit familiar.

Before she could react, the Omega leaning on the Alpha seemed to suddenly sense her presence and smiled in her direction.

Immediately after, the room door slammed shut.

“Hello? Hello?”

Lu Conghuan was still holding a phone, which showed an ongoing call.

“Huanhuan, how is it? Did you find anything?”

The person on the other end of the line was Xu Zhen.

“Nothing at all—”

Lu Conghuan’s face was pale, and her tone was filled with dissatisfaction.

She was an A-level Omega, which should have been superior to many, but this corridor was overflowing with S-level Alpha pheromones!

S-level Alpha pheromones intermingled, as if turning the entire floor into the pair’s territory. Lu Conghuan, a lower-level intruder, naturally found this level of oppression hard to bear.

“How is that possible?”

Xu Zhen’s voice on the phone suddenly rose a few notches.

She had heard rumors that someone was going to drug Shen Qingyu tonight, so she set up a plan for Lu Conghuan to rescue her early. That way, Shen Qingyu would owe a favor, which could help Lu Conghuan land a role in a drama.

In the entertainment industry, staying an idol offers limited prospects; only by gradually transitioning into an actress can one gain greater benefits.

“Look closely again? Are you sure you didn’t see anyone?”

“I already told you no! I only saw a shameless AO couple in heat right in the corridor. Or do you think that Omega could possibly be Film Empress Shen?”

Xu Zhe on the other side fell silent.

Although Shen Qingyu was her aunt, Xu Zhe was not very close to her; instead, she felt more fear.

If she could hear the rumors, she didn’t believe Shen Qingyu, who had consolidated the Northern City Shen family with an iron fist within a year, was completely unaware.

Therefore, even though she couldn’t stand her arrogant, condescending demeanor, Xu Zhe didn’t dare to truly kick her while she was down. She just wanted to use this opportunity to gain some advantage.

But how could someone as seemingly frigid as Shen Qingyu have an Alpha?

The only possibility was that she had already resolved the matter and found someone else to act out the scene for her.

“Looks like we were late.” Xu Zhe couldn’t do anything about it. “Then come back first. Aren’t we having a party tonight to celebrate you successfully ditching that Alpha simp? Everyone’s pretty much arrived.”

“Got it, you guys order first, my treat tonight.”

Lu Conghuan lightly tossed her phone, hanging up, but her expression didn’t soften at all.

Zhu Songning…

Everything had gone according to her wishes: she first broke up with this useless Alpha who had no value to her, then turned around and latched onto Xu Zhen, who was connected to Film Empress Shen, leading to a bright future and an open path to stardom.

Yet, the thought that Zhu Songning agreed to the breakup so easily left a thorn in her heart, impossible to pull out or swallow, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

However… based on her understanding of Zhu Songning, it probably wouldn’t be long before that Alpha would be crying and begging on her knees for her to reconsider.

Thinking of this, a secretive sense of triumph flared up in Lu Conghuan’s heart.

It was just that familiar Alpha’s back and the Omega’s smile that made her feel very unsettled.

Just as she was about to turn and leave, Lu Conghuan’s peripheral vision caught sight of a scarf lying on the floor outside the suite door.

Her pupils contracted.

She had seen that style of scarf before.

Zhu Songning owned an identical one.

Inside the room, Zhu Songning was completely unaware of everything that had just happened.

When her reason was utterly defeated by lust/desire, she was seduced. She squatted down, picked up the slipper the Omega had kicked away with one hand, and carried her in her arms, striding towards the bedroom.

The Omega’s frail, creamy arms wrapped around her neck, nestling bonelessly in her embrace. With their rapid breathing, their body subtly swayed, pressing intimately against the source of her heartbeat, separated only by a thin undergarment, thin skin, and the fifth rib.

By the bed, Zhu Songning’s phone rang abruptly.

She couldn’t spare a hand; the call was ended by the Omega.

“Who is it?”

“I don’t know… looks like a scam or harassment call…”

Unexpectedly, the person kept trying to call, and the phone was then powered off.

The large bed in the bedroom sank.

The Omega’s long hair was lifted from the back of their neck. They lay compliantly on their stomach, allowing the Alpha to carefully inject the green floral pheromone bit by bit.

Outside the window, the first snow of Northern City’s winter began to fall. The light snow piled up on the branches, then melted into streams of water, until it burst into a flowing river.

…………

The next day.

When Zhu Songning woke up from her sleep, her face still carried a scent of satiety.

It had been a long time since she had slept so soundly.

In her original world, she had a bunny plushie that always stayed with her, and she had to hug it to sleep well.

She had transmigrated to this new world, but the toy hadn’t come with her.

Yet, last night, she had miraculously slept very soundly!

Outside the window, the sky was bright, and the first snow had stopped, leaving the entire world covered in silver and white, the snow glittering brightly.

Just as she was about to get up, she felt something was off.

She looked down and saw a delicate, beautiful woman lying in her arms.

The body was slender as a lily stem, the skin a faint, sickly pallor. That face was three parts purer than snow, and even the bright moon at night had to concede some of its clear beauty to it.

As if sensing Zhu Songning’s movement of waking up, the Omega lying on her finally slowly opened their eyes, a pair of obsidian eyes revealing a luster like precious jade in the sunlight.

The face she hadn’t been able to see clearly last night was completely revealed to Zhu Songning.

It was pretty much as she had guessed; she was indeed a rare beauty. Even after being with Lu Conghuan for years and having seen countless beauties in the entertainment industry, she had to admit that this face was an undisputed, crushing beauty compared to everyone she had ever seen.

Simply exceeding the model standard.

But…

Why did this face look more and more familiar?!

As if to confirm her suspicion, the typically reserved Omega spoke softly, “Hello, I am Shen Qingyu.”

The voice was also clear and cold like snow, like shattered porcelain splashing on a plate.

Zhu Songning was slightly dazed.

No way?

The S-level Omega she temporarily marked last night was, by an unfortunate coincidence, Shen Qingyu!

Her ex-girlfriend’s cheating partner’s aunt, the legendary Film Empress who even the main protagonists of the book wouldn’t dare to easily offend.

Her mind recalled the enthusiastic encouragement from the customer sister—

“Find an Omega who is prettier, richer, and more famous than your ex-girlfriend!”

“Preferably someone who is an elder to her or that cheating partner, the kind who will have to bow and serve you tea during the holidays!”

Zhu Songning: “…”

Sister, with a mouth like that, you should have bought a lottery ticket.

Why did it have to come true for her…

Her hand gripped the bedsheet tightly.

Zhu Songning, who was usually eloquent, was uncharacteristically stuck for words, momentarily unsure of what to say.

“Well… actually, last night was just an accident. You were drugged, and I just happened to pass by and gave you a temporary mark to help.”

She quickly cleared her thoughts.

According to the descriptions in the book and the rumors she had heard about Shen Qingyu over the past three years, this powerhouse was playing the role of the entertainment industry’s “untouchable ice queen.” No Alpha could get close to her; no one had even smelled what her pheromone was like. She was a mysterious and incredibly powerful existence.

This kind of beauty was like a thorny flower, only to be admired from afar. She didn’t want to court any messy trouble.

And besides—

Zhu Songning secretly glanced at Shen Qingyu.

Presumably, the Film Empress wouldn’t want to get involved with someone like her, who was disguised as a useless Alpha, just because of an accident, right?

Having figured this out, a professional smile returned to her face, and she continued, “So you don’t need to take it to heart. Regarding everything that happened last night, I will keep it strictly confidential.”

Shen Qingyu lowered her head opposite her, not immediately responding.

The room fell into silence.

A few seconds later, Shen Qingyu finally looked up again.

The messy pajamas slipped from the Omega’s shoulder, revealing red marks on her shoulder, and on the vulnerable gland at the back of her neck, Zhu Songning’s bite mark was clearly visible.

Shen Qingyu’s shoulders trembled slightly, and her long black hair swayed.

Her eyes contained a crystalline shine. As her thin eyelids blinked, a pearly tear instantly moistened those moving eyes, and one bead rolled down, tracing a long watery streak on her snow-white cheek.

No one could bear to refuse her in this state.

Zhu Songning felt her heartstrings gently tugged by that tear. Her gaze involuntarily dropped from her eyes to that thin, rosy lip.

“Zhu Songning, don’t you want to take responsibility for me?”

The beauty’s wet lips opened and closed, looking at her with tearful eyes.
