I Confessed to the Wrong Enigma, Then Got Pregnant as a Top Alpha [Transmigration] - Chapter 3
Chapter 3
Qi Ran got out of the car. The youth wearing sunglasses snorted coldly: “If I were rejected this many times, I would have given up long ago. I don’t even know what you’re after.”
Hearing this, Qi Ran turned to look at the youth in the car and felt that the other person was actually quite right; he didn’t know what he was after either. He curled his lips slightly and suddenly leaned down toward the window: “You have a point. I’ll consider it. Thanks for giving me a ride back. By the way, I still don’t know your name?”
Qi Ran’s sudden closeness startled the sunglass-wearing youth. His eyes widened as he stared at the handsome face just inches away, and his heart skipped a beat involuntarily. Even if they mocked Qi Ran from time to time, they all had to admit that Qi Ran was exceptionally good-looking, so good-looking that even they, as Omegas, couldn’t compare.
As an Alpha, his skin was fair and translucent, looking soft to the touch just by looking at it. His eyes were incredibly vivid, and most importantly, there was a faint pink tint at the corners of his eyes, making him look both pure and seductive.
Being stared at like this, the youth’s cheeks flushed involuntarily. He felt that Qi Ran was doing it on purpose: “Don’t you f*cking starts with me! As if you don’t know my name! Let me tell you, even if you’re good-looking, there’s no way I’d ever fall for you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, as if afraid Qi Ran would say something else, he quickly rolled up the window, and with a red face, slammed the gas pedal and fled like his life depended on it.
Qi Ran, left standing there: “…”
What just happened?
Who wanted him to fall for me?
The Little White Chick in his head suddenly started hopping: [Abnormal heartbeat value detected! Host, you are truly a peerless beauty, extraordinary in your actions, loved by all, a flower that makes others bloom…]
“Speak human!”
Little White Chick: [He probably thought the host’s behavior just now was flirting, chirp~]
Qi Ran: “…”
Is he a psychopath? How was what I did flirting? I don’t even know who he is!
…
Qi Ran hailed a taxi by the roadside and returned home, just in time to run into Qi Su coming out of the house.
As an Omega, Qi Su was absolutely the “ideal child” of other families. From childhood to adulthood, he had been top-tier in every aspect. If one had to name a flaw, it was probably that his personality was a bit cold.
Seeing Qi Ran who was supposed to stay at home—suddenly appear in the yard, Qi Su’s brows furrowed slightly: “Where have you been?”
Qi Ran confirmed once again that his luck was so bad lately that even drinking water got stuck in his teeth. He walked over with a smile: “The house was too stuffy, so I went out for a stroll.”
Qi Su obviously didn’t believe him: “Is it necessary to dress like this just for a stroll?”
Strolling the streets in a full suit?
Go burn newspapers at a grave and fool some ghosts instead.
Knowing Qi Su wasn’t easy to trick, Qi Ran chuckled and took a step closer: “Brother, today you’re wearing the Violet Gen-2, ‘Qing Yun.’ The top note is as cold as the white snow on a mountain peak, chilly and pure. You just sprayed it less than ten minutes ago, right?”
After hearing him speak, a hint of surprise flashed in Qi Su’s eyes: “Since when did you start studying perfumes?”
Qi Ran curled his lips: “Brother, let me tell you, I’m not the same as I used to be. I plan to develop properly. The family’s burden can’t all fall on your shoulders alone. Rest assured, with me around in the perfume sector, I can definitely make it flourish again.”
The Qi family had originally made its fortune in the perfume business, but now that various perfumes were flooding the market, the Qi family only had one production line left, maintained solely for its reputation.
They didn’t really expect the perfume industry to see a second spring.
Hearing Qi Ran speak like this, Qi Su’s attitude became serious: “If you truly think that way, that would be for the best. Father and I could finally stop worrying about you.”
Although he said this, Qi Su didn’t harbor much hope for Qi Ran. Setting aside the declining market demand for perfume, and not even mentioning whether Qi Ran had the talent or ability, Qi Su was skeptical of Qi Ran’s “three days of fishing and two days of drying nets” (inconsistent) personality.
After all, Qi Ran had said similar things before, only to go back to chasing the Jiang family’s eldest son the very next day.
Sometimes he really wanted to crack open Qi Ran’s head to see what was inside.
Sensing the perfunctory nature of Qi Su’s words, Qi Ran wasn’t annoyed. He took a step back with a smile: “Brother, next time you can try the Violet Gen-6, ‘Bai Zhi.’ The scent might suit you better.”
‘Qing Yun’ was too sharp and cold. Even if the base note turned sweet with a hint of lime and sea salt, it couldn’t balance out his brother’s naturally cold temperament.
‘Bai Zhi’ was different. The top note was slightly sweet with a gardenia fragrance. After evaporating through different temperatures and time, the gardenia scent would dissipate, gradually revealing the breath of fresh snow like a rebirth, pure and holy, as if a deity were being born.
Curling his lips, he thought his brother would surely be the center of attention then.
Watching the youth who left with a smile after saying those words, a trace of peculiarity finally surfaced in Qi Su’s eyes.
The feeling Qi Ran gave him was indeed somewhat different. He just didn’t know if this change was for better or worse.
…
Unaware of what Qi Su was thinking after he left, Qi Ran returned to his room, ran a bath, and went to the kitchen to find food to fill his stomach.
During the process, he didn’t forget to communicate with the Little White Chick in his head: “What is the next mission?”
He couldn’t be blamed for being so impatient; having only one day of life left him with no sense of security. If he wasn’t careful, he wouldn’t even know where he’d drop dead.
Hearing this, the Little White Chick immediately hopped around happily: [Feeling the host’s proactive attitude toward missions, Baby feels very gratified. The next mission is very simple! I believe the smart and powerful host can definitely complete it!]
Qi Ran continued eating: “Don’t dawdle, just say it.”
The Little White Chick rolled around in his head: [New mission issued: Please become good friends with the Protagonist Shou, Lu Ling, within your limited lifespan and gain 10 Favorability points. Completing the mission will grant a 3-day life extension. Please do your best!]
Qi Ran stopped eating: “That’s not right. Lu Ling and I are love rivals. Is it even possible for me to become friends with him?”
Lu Ling was probably annoyed to death by him, right?
Hearing this, the Little White Chick suddenly chuckled “Chirp chirp.” For a bird, its laugh actually looked like a squinty-eyed fox: [Has the host forgotten? You don’t like Jiang Sen anymore. Lu Ling’s wariness toward you shouldn’t be as high as before. Becoming his friend now to obtain important information about the protagonists’ progress is a great opportunity. I believe with the host’s ability, you’ll complete it without any effort, right?]
“No need to suck up to me. A 3-day life extension… barely acceptable.” Qi Ran swallowed his last bite of food and stood up to go to his room. “You’re responsible for tracking Lu Ling’s movements. I need to sleep for a bit first.”
If he didn’t rest, he was afraid he’d die of exhaustion.
The Little White Chick used its small wing to swipe near its head in a salute, indicating it would definitely complete the task.
…
That evening, a well-rested Qi Ran left the house and took a taxi to a bar in the city center.
On the way, he asked the Little White Chick with some disbelief: “Are you sure Lu Ling really went to a bar?”
He had seen Lu Ling’s character settings. For such a soft, well-behaved Omega to go to a place like a bar seemed like a complete character break, didn’t it?
Based on the fact that the Little White Chick had already “overturned its car” (failed) once, Qi Ran had every reason to suspect it had made a mistake.
The Little White Chick hopped indignantly: [It’s absolutely true! Baby made one mistake; could I make a second? Absolutely impossible! If I get it wrong this time, punish me by turning me into a Baldy Chick!]
Qi Ran: “…”
No need to be so cruel to yourself.
In front of the “Blaze Bar,” Qi Ran buttoned up his unfastened suit jacket and looked up at the flickering blue and pink neon sign. No matter how he looked at it, this didn’t seem like a place a pure Omega should visit.
The receptionist at the door saw him and asked respectfully: “Are you alone, sir?”
As he spoke, he met Qi Ran’s eyes and froze, an irrepressible look of amazement flashing through his eyes.
Qi Ran didn’t notice his expression and said: “One person. No need to follow.”
The Little White Chick hid its beak with its wing while chirping: [Host’s charm is just too great. You capture hearts so easily; you’re simply an arsonist of hearts~]
“I’m not interested in starting fires. Quickly find Lu Ling’s location.”
He just wanted to finish the mission and get the reward quickly!
However, just as he finished speaking, his gaze swept over a booth nearby and paused slightly. He saw Jiang Siheng sitting inside, talking to someone.
Qi Ran’s heart jumped. He quickly turned and walked in the opposite direction.
Therefore, he didn’t see Jiang Siheng’s gaze turn toward him after he turned around.
