From Trashy A to the Heiress’s Little Son-in-Law After the Idol Competition (GL, ABO) - Chapter 94
Xiao Yanjin closed her eyes as a trickle of liquid seeped into her mouth.
A faint peach flavor.
This wasn’t water—it was peach-flavored fermented rice wine.
“Mu Rouxue, what the hell are you doing?!” Xiao Yanjin quickly wiped the alcohol from her face. The sound of the door closing echoed, leaving the room chillingly silent.
When she finally wiped her face clean and opened her eyes, the private chamber was empty—except for an Omega suddenly embracing her from behind.
“Ah Jin, I love you… I really, really love you. I don’t care if you have a wife. Please stay with me, won’t you?” Her voice was soft and seductive, her pheromones instantly flooding the air.
“I know there’s a part of me in your heart. Otherwise, why would the young mistress Ji you like share the same aura as me…?”
The scent of alcohol mingled with her peach-infused Omega pheromones.
The unique blend harmonized seamlessly, only serving to intoxicate and madden an Alpha further.
“I like you so much… I really, really like you…” The Omega murmured in an unbearably tender voice, her gaze soft and enveloping as it wrapped around Xiao Yanjin.
Like you, my ass!
Xiao Yanjin shoved her away immediately, shouting, “Don’t touch me!”
Mu Rouxue fell to the ground with a delicate cry.
Her cheeks were flushed, her neck tinged a faint pink, her breath coming in ragged gasps as she murmured incoherently—she seemed to have entered her heat cycle.
Xiao Yanjin: “!!!”
Damn it, she was hiding her heat!
“I need your pheromones… give them to me…” Mu Rouxue’s eyes were heavy with desire as she crawled toward Xiao Yanjin, pleading.
Xiao Yanjin took several steps back, her mind racing. Was this Xue Fengye’s scheme? To trap her alone with Mu Rouxue, take compromising photos, and ruin her reputation? If word got out, not only would she be disgraced, but the Ji family would be humiliated and cast her out.
What a cunning Alpha!
“Please… give me your pheromones…” Mu Rouxue sobbed.
Xiao Yanjin refused to release her pheromones, but Mu Rouxue had no such restraint—her scent saturated the room in an instant.
As a top-tier Omega, her pheromones were downright lethal to Xiao Yanjin.
Her head spun in chaos as she rushed to the door, only to find it locked from the outside—impossible to open.
That bastard Xue Fengye!!
That damn Mu Rouxue!!
Xiao Yanjin slammed her fist against the door in frustration.
“Mmm…” Behind her, the Omega struggled to prop up her weak body before stumbling over to embrace Xiao Yanjin again. Between coquettish whimpers and dazed giggles, she begged, “Ah Jin… I want your pheromones… Won’t you give them to me? I’ll give you my body… I won’t tell Young Mistress Ji, I promise…”
“Go to hell.” Xiao Yanjin wrenched herself free. Being embraced by another Omega was unbearable, but with Mu Rouxue’s pheromones flooding the air, the discomfort only intensified.
She tried the window next—only to find it firmly latched shut. No escape.
If she couldn’t vent her pheromones soon, she’d be completely overwhelmed by Mu Rouxue’s scent.
And if she lost control…
Sweat beaded on Xiao Yanjin’s forehead as she watched the Omega writhe on the floor, her body burning with heat. Her white dress clung to her, nearly torn open—revealing a glimpse of pale skin at her chest.
Then, inspiration struck.
Xiao Yanjin grabbed the wine from the table and forced it down Mu Rouxue’s throat.
Mu Rouxue had no choice but to gulp it down—once drunk, she wouldn’t have the strength to release her pheromones.
However, footsteps echoed at the door, and light flooded in.
Ji Yunuo’s livid face came into view, her piercing gaze locked onto Xiao Yanjin.
Those beautiful eyes burned with fury.
How dare someone covet her alpha!
To an outsider, it would look like Xiao Yanjin was some perverted alpha deliberately getting an Omega drunk.
“Sister.”
“Don’t speak.” Ji Yunuo’s voice was icy. “Come with me.”
Mu Rouxue had already been discovered by hotel staff and sent to the hospital.
Xue Fengye had deliberately tipped off the paparazzi to catch Xiao Yanjin in the act, even disabling nearby cameras—but he never expected Ji Yunuo to arrive early.
Standing on the rooftop, Xue Fengye watched the car drive away. It would have been perfect if she had seen that scene. Maybe the young mistress of the Ji family would be furious enough to divorce her.
Meanwhile, inside the car, Ji Yunuo pulled over to the side of the road.
“Xue Fengye is trying to frame me,” Xiao Yanjin mused. Though the original host had a grudge with him, it wasn’t anything major. Why would he go to such lengths to set up someone who had already married into the Ji family?
Crossing the Ji family wouldn’t do him any good.
“Xiao Yanjin.” Ji Yunuo suddenly spoke.
“Sister, I didn’t do anything! I’ve always upheld alpha virtues!” Xiao Yanjin quickly defended herself.
Ji Yunuo smiled faintly. “Do you think I don’t trust you?”
Xiao Yanjin pouted. “I was just worried.”
“Can you explain your relationship with Mu Rouxue clearly?” Ji Yunuo asked.
Xiao Yanjin obediently recounted everything—what had just happened, as well as the original host’s past with Xue Fengye and Mu Rouxue—leaving nothing out.
Ji Yunuo hummed in acknowledgment, piecing it together.
“You met Mu Rouxue abroad years ago, talked well enough that she developed feelings for you, then she got plastic surgery and came back specifically to see you—only to realize you didn’t recognize her.”
“Mm.”
“Something like this is trivial. For him to hold onto it for so long… And now that you’re part of the Ji family, framing you would mean provoking us. No sane person would take that risk.”
“That’s what I thought too. He used to despise underhanded tactics, yet now he’s using an Omega to target me.”
“I’m just curious…” Ji Yunuo looked at her. “Did you really get along that well with an Omega?”
Ji Yunuo’s attention to Xiao Yanjin was genuine. During the survival show, aside from He Rou—a beta—she hadn’t gotten close to any Omegas. Even her interactions with Lan Yuanning and Shen Ya were superficial. It was hard to imagine Xiao Yanjin having Omega friends.
Even fans online joked that Xiao Yanjin was “immune to Omega charms.”
“That was years ago. I’ve changed now.”
At this, Xiao Yanjin’s heart suddenly clenched. She looked up just as Ji Yunuo’s sharp gaze locked onto her, as if she had discovered something.
Xiao Yanjin swallowed nervously.
Ji Yunuo lowered her eyes and murmured, “Did she hug you?”
Xiao Yanjin’s heart softened. “She did, but I pushed her away immediately.”
Ji Yunuo’s fingers tightened on her clothes. “Then… she didn’t kiss you, did she?”
Xiao Yanjin shook her head and declared solemnly, “I, Xiao Yanjin, will forever uphold the A-virtues for Miss Ji! I’ll only kiss Miss Ji, this Omega. My body can only be touched by Miss Ji!”
Ji Yunuo smiled and kissed her.
“Really?”
“Really!”
Xiao Yanjin pulled her into an embrace, intertwining their fingers while soothingly rubbing her back.
“Did you come looking for me, sis?”
“I was worried you might be drinking, so I thought I’d come find you first.”
Xiao Yanjin chuckled and hummed in agreement, relieved. She hoped Ji Yunuo hadn’t noticed anything else—she wasn’t ready to reveal the truth about her transmigration yet. Ji Mian had told her some secrets were best kept hidden, and pretending to belong to this world would make things easier.
#XiaoYanjin and Mu Rouxue Spotted Entering Hotel#
The trending topic inevitably surged to the top.
[No way, so they really are just a marriage of convenience?!]
[If Xiao Yanjin is out with her co-star, does that mean Miss Ji is keeping male concubines too?!]
[I knew it! Would Miss Ji ever fancy someone like Xiao Yanjin? Would a domineering Alpha like her really marry an Omega as a live-in son-in-law?]
“What’s going on?” Wei Qin had also seen the headlines. Just yesterday, Xiao Yanjin had mentioned going out with friends, and now this scandal broke out.
Xiao Yanjin put on a pitiful act, snuggling into her wife’s arms with a whimper, looking so vulnerable that Wei Qin immediately assumed she’d been framed.
Ji Yunuo stroked her head. “A-Jin was set up.”
Ji Zhanye, flipping through a newspaper, said nonchalantly, “Then suppress the trending topic. We’ve got plenty of money for that.”
Xiao Yanjin obediently hummed in agreement, the fire in her eyes carefully concealed.
Xue Fengye.
Mu Rouxue.
Just you wait.
–
With filming nearly wrapped up, Xiao Yanjin soon joined another production—a couples’ variety show with Ji Yunuo.
The previous scandal had been swiftly buried by the Ji family, but Xiao Yanjin’s reputation had taken another hit. The production team was under immense pressure to proceed.
Even the show’s director assumed Xiao Yanjin and Ji Yunuo were merely putting up a front as a fake couple.
Xiao Yanjin: Time to debunk the rumors and start the redemption arc!
Wei Qin only found out too late. Watching the crew set up cameras around the house, her expression darkened visibly.
The day before, Ji Yunuo had cautiously probed Wei Qin: “If I joined a variety show, would you scold me?”
Wei Qin, busy cutting watermelon for Ji Zhanye, gave her a puzzled look. “When have I ever scolded you?”
Ji Yunuo relaxed—until Wei Qin handed slices to Ji Zhanye and Xiao Yanjin but didn’t offer her any.
Pregnant Ji Yunuo: “…”
Just as Ji Yunuo was about to apologize, Wei Qin tugged at her wife’s sleeve and pouted. “Honestly, they’re doing a couples’ show without inviting us? Aren’t we a couple too? I want to join!”
Ji Zhanye blinked. “But darling, you’ve been retired for decades.”
Wei Qin tossed her long hair with a dramatic flair. “What, doesn’t an award-winning actress making a comeback count? A queen stays a queen, even after twenty years out of the spotlight.”
“Of course, of course!” Ji Zhanye hurriedly soothed her. “Next year, I’ll personally produce one just for you—and we won’t invite them!”
Wei Qin smiled in satisfaction: “That’s more like it.”
Ji Yunuo: “……”
To let the audience understand the couple’s relationship and dynamics, the Ji family’s housekeepers and chefs had to temporarily leave the mansion. In other words, this luxurious Ji residence would serve as their filming location for the variety show.
As for the older couple Wei Qin and Ji Zhiye, they could do whatever they wanted inside or even go out—this was primarily the stage for the young Ji couple, with them playing supporting roles.
The show adopted a “film-and-release-per-episode” format, with several background commentators scoring and reviewing each couple’s performance.
The panel included Fu Qingqing from “Wonderful Gathering,” Zhang Xiaoxiao from “Talk Show Competition,” and Su Ya from “Love You on Time”—all notoriously sharp-tongued industry veterans guaranteed to stir up drama after broadcast.
Many netizens were eagerly anticipating how Xiao Yanjin would present herself—whether she’d live up to her online reputation as a shameless gold-digging socialite.
First day of filming.
Xiao Yanjin woke up early to prepare breakfast for her wife.
With practiced ease, she took buns from the fridge to pan-fry. When they were nearly done, she added starch water, unfazed by the sizzling oil as she simultaneously whisked eggs with effortless grace.
[Yanjin’s actually cooking for them this early?]
[I thought she had chauffeurs for grocery runs as a trophy wife?]
[Don’t be naive—there are obviously housekeepers. This is just for show.]
Since that first breakfast for Wei Qin, Xiao Yanjin had honed her culinary skills to perfection, earning viewers’ admiration.
[I totally believe Yanjin cooks for Miss Ji regularly—no way she’d be this skilled otherwise]
[She even makes Wuhan-style hot dry noodles!!]
The commentators offered relatively objective praise.
Fu Qingqing: “Xiao Yanjin’s performance is quite commendable.”
Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded: “I’m looking forward to her interactions with Miss Ji now.”
Midway through cooking, Ji Yunuo woke up. Her loose pajamas concealed the slight swell of her belly, though viewers would’ve just assumed she’d gained weight if visible.
After washing up, she came downstairs, embraced Xiao Yanjin from behind upon seeing the spread, and said warmly, “You’ve worked hard.”
[OMG THAT VOICE—SO SOFT AND SWEET!]
[INCOMING NUO-YAN CP CONTENT—EVERYBODY SCATTER!!]
Xiao Yanjin: “Cooking for you could never be work.”
Su Ya nodded approvingly: “Xiao Yanjin excels here. We just watched another couple where Partner A had zero domestic awareness—even slept in. Yanjin shows remarkable initiative—praiseworthy indeed.”
Ji Yunuo planted a light kiss on her cheek. Their shared smile seemed to generate visible pink bubbles around them.
Xiao Yanjin then served Yunuo a bowl of freshly made soy milk.
As Yunuo ate contentedly—with Wei Qin and Ji Zhiye deliberately staying elsewhere, today’s breakfast bore no resemblance to their usual bland meals, all thanks to Yanjin’s arrangements—they eventually sat down together after cleanup.
“Jiejie.”
“Hmm?”
Xiao Yanjin leaned in like an eager puppy wagging its tail: “Praise me?”
Yunuo burst out laughing and gave a thumbs-up: “Absolutely delicious! These pan-fried buns are juicy, and the soy milk is perfectly sweet. I love it.”
Eyes sparkling, Yanjin beamed: “Thank you, jiejie.”
【So sweet! Who on earth said they had a contractual marriage?】
After dinner, Xiao Yanjin still had a bit of vinegar at the corner of her lips.
Ji Yunuo considerately wiped it off for her, while Xiao Yanjin obediently leaned in with a sweet, squinty-eyed smile—instantly melting hearts.
Later, Xiao Yanjin held Ji Yunuo’s hand as they went to the balcony to bask in the sun, while she herself headed to the bedroom to change the bedsheets and gather laundry.
Netizens watched wide-eyed as Xiao Yanjin took the clothes out to wash in the yard—
By hand, no less.
【Am I seeing things? Xiao Yanjin, an alpha, is actually doing laundry?】
【Oh my god, that other couple earlier—the alpha didn’t even have a clue, asking his wife where the clothes were and whether it was cold enough to layer up. Meanwhile, Xiao Yanjin just straight-up washes her wife’s clothes!】
【Xiao Yanjin is so domestic, I love it—ahem, I mean, never mind.】
Xiao Yanjin sighed. She was just trying to boost her image!
Though, admittedly, she did wash Ji Yunuo’s private undergarments herself.
