I Topped the Aloof Omega in a Scummy Alpha Novel - Chapter 28.1
Pouting and Acting Spoiled
At the airport entrance, the president of Bian Yunchen’s fan club received a message from the informant she had placed in the airport: Bian Yunchen had safely boarded the plane.
“Alright, Yunchen is on the plane now, everyone please disperse. See you next time, and remember to look forward to Yunchen’s new variety show!” the fan club president announced loudly.
“Okay, see you next time!” A few girls responded to the president and got into their cars.
Others remained in place, gossiping enthusiastically online with fellow fans.
Group Chat: “Sinking Hearts’ Desire” Life Fans Edition (4 people)
Scent of Chen: Chenchenzi, you went to send her off today. How was it? Was Yunchen in good spirits? If I didn’t have my project report today, I would have gone with you (Crying).
Chenchenzi: I felt like Yunchen was in a super good mood today! She signed autographs for us and stayed to chat for a while.
Wants to Raise a Chen: I’m so jealous…
Chenchenzi: Don’t be jealous. I got autographs for all three of you.
My Girl is a Movie Queen: Ahhh, Chenchenzi, I love you! Having a fellow fan like you is a blessing from three lifetimes of cultivation (Lipstick kiss).
Scent of Chen: Speaking of which, did you see that mysterious friend? She went to the airport with Yunchen, right?
Chenchenzi: I saw her. She’s actually quite nice.
Wants to Raise a Chen: How so?
Chenchenzi: She seems to be a staff member for that Shuihe company? I’m not sure, just overheard others talking. Anyway, after Yunchen left, she came and collected our flowers. She took one stem from each of us and said many words of thanks. She was very polite.
My Girl is a Movie Queen: Wow, what kind of relationship must it be for my daughter to take special care of her and bring her into her company?
Scent of Chen: Love it, love it.
Chenchenzi: I saw someone secretly slip a postcard into that person’s clothes pocket. I should have brought a postcard too.
Chenchenzi’s eyes left her phone screen to observe the clever fan.
She was a sucker for good looks. Although the fan was wearing a mask and semi-rimless glasses, her peach blossom eyes were quite pretty. She thought the person underneath the mask must also be a beauty.
She had noticed her earlier when the fan club gathered.
This person seemed to have come alone. Strangely, even when Yunchen appeared, she remained very calm, calmly like a staff member lurking among the fans.
Bai Yangyang noticed a gaze scrutinizing her. She glanced sideways at the person, but didn’t pay much attention, getting into the taxi at the front.
In every generation of the Bai family, one person could resonate with the stars and perform divination.
Within the Bai family, they called them “Preceptors.” When the previous Preceptor passed away, the youngest among the eligible young generation of the Bai family was fifteen years old.
If one hadn’t gained the ability to predict by the age of fifteen, they could not become a Preceptor.
This was the Bai family’s top priority. The Bai elders gathered for a ten-hour meeting when Bai Yi suddenly remembered.
His sister, Bai Ci, had a ridiculous affair before her marriage.
The Bai family found the child named Helan Yue and renamed her Bai Yangyang.
As Helan Yue’s neighbors had said, there was something miraculous about her. Helan Yue’s mother loved to play mahjong. Sometimes, Helan Yue would sit nearby doing her homework and suddenly start muttering.
Helan Yue’s mother asked her what she was saying.
Helan Yue said, “Mom will lose the most today.”
Helan Jian was so angry she wanted to hit her child.
Helan Yue said, “I’m not cursing you; it’s true.”
A fellow player stopped Helan Jian and asked the child, “How do you know?”
Helan Yue said, “I just know. Not only will Mom lose the most, but Aunt Lian will win the most.”
When the game ended, it was exactly as Helan Yue had said.
From then on, before playing cards, Helan Jian would first ask for Helan Yue’s opinion. After that, no one wanted to play cards with Helan Jian anymore.
Helan Yue returned to the Bai family. The Bai family initially thought this girl would bring immense benefits to the family, but unexpectedly, Bai Yangyang could only predict minor matters.
The previous Preceptor could even predict the next president. Bai Yangyang’s inability was a great disappointment to the Bai family.
But only Bai Yangyang knew herself: it wasn’t that she couldn’t; it was that she didn’t want to.
Bai Yangyang watched the plane gliding overhead.
She hoped this time she could help Xuan Yuchi.
The plane was flying at high altitude, passing through thick clouds, when it suddenly dropped: once, twice, three times…
“Dear passengers, we regret to inform you that due to weather conditions, the plane will be making an emergency landing at Jingcheng Airport…”
Xuan Yuchi was awakened by the flight attendant’s announcement. The moment she woke up, she saw Yunchen’s naturally beautiful sleeping face, and a smile unconsciously spread across her face, feeling a sense of tranquil time.
It wasn’t until the two words, “Jingcheng,” fell into her ears that she immediately became alert and woke up Yunchen.
Bian Yunchen’s sleepiness hadn’t worn off, and her voice was still a little hoarse: “What’s wrong?”
Xuan Yuchi said seriously, “Sister Bian, the plane is making an emergency landing in Jingcheng.”
“Jingcheng…” Bian Yunchen murmured softly, her eyes gradually showing a chill.
A bizarre card, the sudden plane descent, and it was in Jingcheng, a place that has been quite volatile recently.
Many passengers raised questions.
“Hey, how can we stop in that hellhole, Jingcheng? Doesn’t your crew know that the Omegas over there are acting like lunatics?” The speaker was clearly an Alpha.
“Exactly! How is this different from asking us to go die? I think I’d rather die on the plane. If I’m killed by a rioting Omega, I won’t have the face to see my ancestors,” another Alpha complained.
The Omega at the very back clenched her hands, her voice weak: “Although what you said is discriminatory, as an Omega, I also don’t approve of landing in Jingcheng…”
It was one word after another in the first class, and the economy class was an even bigger mess.
The purser had to personally step forward to explain: “Please rest assured, everyone. Jingcheng Airport is the only international airport in the East. There are special agents on patrol, and after the plane lands, the airline will have a shuttle bus take everyone directly to a hotel for a temporary rest. There will be no accidents.”
With the purser’s guarantee, the complaints subsided. After all, a plane crash was no joke.
Bian Yunchen beckoned, and Xuan Yuchi understood and leaned in.
“Follow me after we get off the plane.”
Xuan Yuchi met her gaze and nodded.
Twenty minutes later, the plane landed.
Passengers boarded the shuttle bus in batches. Xuan Yuchi and Bian Yunchen were in the first batch.
However, the shuttle bus did not take the passengers directly to the hotel but first took them to the waiting lounge.
The passengers realized they had been tricked and were furious, but since they couldn’t fight against the system, they planned to file a complaint after reaching their destination.
Before getting off the plane, Xuan Yuchi had already pulled down the plain hair tie on her head, loosely tied up Yunchen’s black hair, and put sunglasses and a mask on her. She also instructed Yunchen to walk behind her, fully adopting the role of an assistant.
After taking care of Yunchen, she also put on a mask herself. If she had been photographed by fans at the airport entrance, people could use her to identify Yunchen, so it was better to be cautious.
The two didn’t follow the main group into the waiting lounge. They deliberately kept their distance from others along the way and stopped at the restroom mid-route.
Xuan Yuchi needed to use the restroom. Drinking too much coffee was the downside. She rubbed her neck, inexplicably feeling a little itchy, as if someone had touched her neck on the way over.
Bian Yunchen waited for her outside and, while waiting, bought two plane tickets from Jingcheng to Pingyancheng.
The city of Jingcheng was peculiar. It had the only international airport in the East, yet its economy was at the bottom nationally.
Whether Chinese people going abroad or foreigners coming to visit, they all treated Jingcheng as a transit station, with no one staying for too long.
But this did not prevent the state from investing capital in Jingcheng. Even an airport restroom was equipped with a stall occupancy display, air fresheners, a nursery, a changing room…
Even though there was a restroom for every four boarding gates, the interiors were much larger than those of a typical plane.
Xuan Yuchi chose the middle restroom stall, confirming that the two adjacent stalls were empty.
To avoid any embarrassment…
Xuan Yuchi pulled down the zipper of her jeans and flushed the toilet a moment later.
Just as she was about to open the restroom door, she heard a commotion outside.
“She’s in there!” one person said.
“What a strong oppressive feeling! She really is an S-class Alpha!”
“Damn, what’s that pheromone smell? Iced Americano? That’s too weird.”
“Stop talking nonsense, search quickly.”
Restroom doors were kicked open one after another, and the sound of “clang, clang, clang” echoed throughout the restroom.
An S-class Alpha?
Who? Why hadn’t she felt anything?
Xuan Yuchi opened the door and saw seven people standing in front of her, looking hostile.
She walked past them with confident strides, as if no one else was there.
“Stop right there.”
One person grabbed her arm, and the rest immediately surrounded her.
The group exchanged glances, confirming the source of the oppressive feeling.
They had taken a special drug before arriving. Although they could sense the Alpha’s oppressive feeling, they were not overly affected.
Xuan Yuchi looked at them, expressionlessly asking, “What do you want?”
The one gripping Xuan Yuchi’s arm was named Ming Ruo, an A-class Omega. She narrowed her eyes and said, “I really don’t like your tone. You Alphas are born thinking you’re superior.”
“Who told you I’m an Alpha? I’m an Omega, okay? You’ve got the wrong person.” Xuan Yuchi shrugged. Her pheromones were not aggressive. If she pretended to be an Omega, no one would likely doubt her.
Ming Ruo tightened her grip on Xuan Yuchi’s arm with fierce strength, sneering, “This is the first time I’ve seen an Alpha so shameless.”
Xuan Yuchi raised her hand and grasped Ming Ruo’s wrist. Although she didn’t have much of an Alpha advantage, as a human, she exercised regularly and had considerable strength.
Since she couldn’t fool them, she might as well demonstrate her strength and let the other party know she wasn’t easy to bully.
Xuan Yuchi forcefully twisted, bending Ming Ruo’s hand backward, but Ming Ruo couldn’t resist at all.
“Quickly, grab her!” Ming Ruo shouted.
Six people rushed up to restrain Xuan Yuchi, practically lifting her off the ground.
No matter how strong Xuan Yuchi was, she couldn’t overcome six people.
“What exactly do you want! Can’t we talk things over properly!” she also shouted.
Xuan Yuchi: [666, draw me a weapon.]
System: [Drawing a prize for you. Detecting your main storyline progress. The drawing system is undergoing an upgrade. From now on, you will not need to complete action commands. System upgrading. Please wait…]
Ming Ruo’s eyes looked like they wanted to stab Xuan Yuchi, viciously saying, “S-class Alphas are supposed to be so powerful, aren’t they? Why is this all you’ve got?”
Ming Ruo’s older sister was killed by an S-class Alpha during the recent riots.
But her sister hadn’t participated in the protest. She had merely passed by the protesting crowd when that Alpha grabbed her and slammed her onto a railing with sharp points at the top.
Ming Ruo and her mother went to the Special Investigations Bureau to demand an explanation, but the people there said that S-class Alphas exhibit some bestial nature when enraged, and accidental injury was unavoidable.
Why should the law let Alphas off easy!
Xuan Yuchi: [666, are you done upgrading yet?]
System: [Almost. Host, hang in there!]
Xuan Yuchi tried to explain herself: “Your idea is contradictory. If I were an S-class Alpha, would you have controlled me this easily? I am just an ordinary Alpha.”
Outside, Bian Yunchen was also surrounded. She heard the commotion coming from the restroom, and a layer of hostility surfaced in her eyes.
This group wasn’t just coming for her.
“Who is this?” A passerby whispered nearby.
“Judging by the presence, she looks like a big star,” another person said.
“Yunchen, you must speak up for us!” A middle-aged woman stepped forward and grabbed Bian Yunchen’s hand.
A flicker of displeasure crossed the eyes behind the sunglasses. Bian Yunchen didn’t like strangers touching her.
She was waiting for Xuan Yuchi by the restroom door when a group of people suddenly arrived and surrounded her without a word.
At first, there were only five or six people. When Bian Yunchen tried to walk away, three more came, blocking her completely.
These people didn’t say anything, just stood there in a deadlock, attracting more people to watch the show.
The opponents had come prepared. If Bian Yunchen tried to escape, they would surely shout her name loudly in the airport.
Bian Yunchen grabbed the woman’s hand, a fake smile curling on her lips, her tone amiable: “What is it?”
This effectively confirmed her identity. The news of the big star appearing in Jingcheng quickly spread throughout the airport, also drawing some genuine onlookers.
Ming Ruo spat out a small, thumb-length vial containing a green liquid. If this was dripped onto an Alpha’s scent gland, their gland would be permanently damaged, instantly turning them into a useless person.
Someone had told her that an S-class Alpha would be arriving at Jingcheng Airport and had given her this vial.
With the unrest in Jingcheng, Ming Ruo was willing to bear any consequence if she could cripple an S-class Alpha, making an example out of them and letting the conservative party know that Omegas were not to be trifled with.
Ming Ruo opened the small vial. The Omega restraining Xuan Yuchi’s left hand asked, “Sister Ming Ruo, what is this?”
Ming Ruo’s eyes were filled with hatred: “Something that can turn her into a cripple.”
The others exchanged uneasy looks. They had followed Sister Ming Ruo only because they wanted to beat up an Alpha and vent their frustration.
If they permanently crippled someone, they would be arrested… They were just students; they didn’t have the courage to resist like those older women.
The student gripping Xuan Yuchi’s hand instantly softened her grip. Xuan Yuchi felt it and glanced at her.
“Sister Ming Ruo, let’s just beat her up. What if someone comes later…”
“What are you afraid of!” Ming Ruo rudely interrupted her, then said reassuringly, “No one will come.”
That person had said they would arrange everything, so Ming Ruo should act without worry.
Xuan Yuchi felt something cold and hard on her waist. System 666 had just drawn a “physical reward” for her.
A gun, a dagger, and a syringe filled with anesthetic. Xuan Yuchi could choose one of the three.
They were in an airport, and a gun or a dagger would be too conspicuous. Xuan Yuchi chose the syringe.
She forcefully swung herself, kicking away the two people on the left with a flying kick, and then used a slap to knock away the person on the right.
The terrifying explosive power of an Alpha instantly stunned the students. The remaining students quickly let go of Xuan Yuchi and hid far away.
Only Ming Ruo rushed at Xuan Yuchi like a maniac, clutching the small vial.
“You wastes, why aren’t you grabbing her!”
Xuan Yuchi seized Ming Ruo’s arm, knocking the vial out of her hand. The liquid inside splashed, landing on the floor and the restroom door, making a “sizzle, sizzle, sizzle” sound, instantly corroding the floor and the door.
Xuan Yuchi pulled the syringe from her waist, marveling inwardly at how cruel this young girl was, despite her young age.
Xuan Yuchi: “We have no bad blood. Why are you doing this?”
That’s what she said, but it didn’t stop her from injecting the liquid from the syringe into Ming Ruo’s arm before throwing her onto the ground.
“Oh no, she’s going berserk. Let’s get out of here!” one student shouted.
The other students looked terrified and scrambled away, leaving Xuan Yuchi alone in the restroom, rubbing her neck.
Her fingertip caught a small, black, circular dot, but before she could see it clearly, it fell off and disappeared.
Xuan Yuchi: [What was that?]
System: [An enhancer.]
Xuan Yuchi raised an eyebrow. She had seen this substance in textbooks. It was originally used by some low-level Alphas to enhance their aura, but at most, it only made their strength distinction from Omegas clear.
The fact that those people mistook her for an S-class Alpha was likely related to the enhancer.
She hadn’t realized that the item had been optimized to the point where it could make people mistakenly believe she was an S-class Alpha.
Which bastard was deliberately targeting her, putting an enhancer on her in Jingcheng? Wasn’t that trying to get her killed?
The person targeting her must be among the flight passengers. She would deal with that person after accompanying Yunchen to the variety show.
It sounded noisy outside.
Xuan Yuchi put the matter aside and quickly walked out, her gaze cutting through the heavily packed crowd, fixed directly on Bian Yunchen.
A middle-aged woman was kneeling on the floor, crying and pulling at Bian Yunchen’s hand. Bian Yunchen was squatting down, looking somewhat cold with her sunglasses on.
The airport lighting was bright, but the crowd seemed worried about the quality of their videos, flashing their lights directly at Bian Yunchen.
Xuan Yuchi pushed through the outer layer of the crowd and asked the woman next to her, “Ma’am, what’s happening?”
The woman raised her chin and said, “That’s Bian Yunchen. The kneeling woman is a Jingcheng resident, an Omega. Jingcheng has been very chaotic recently. She wants Bian Yunchen to publicly speak up for the Omegas here.
How can she agree to that? Bian Yunchen is just a celebrity, she can’t openly oppose the government. Remaining silent like this is the only way.
Sigh, I don’t know where the airport’s special agents are. Aren’t they worried about a riot breaking out?”
The woman spoke eloquently, sounding like a partial insider in the entertainment industry.
The middle-aged woman on the ground was crying hysterically, but her crying had a rhythm. In between pauses, she repeatedly recounted how her daughter was killed by an Alpha, pleading with Bian Yunchen to seek justice for her.
The people nearby couldn’t stand it anymore: “Bian Yunchen, you can’t forget your roots! You’re also an Omega. How can you not stand with us?”
“That’s right! Aren’t you a celebrity? So many people love you, you should use your influence to let everyone see how miserable Omegas are in this world!”
“What good is a big star posting a few tweets? You won’t even do this little thing for us Omegas. I regret ever liking you.”
“I see no difference between you and those Alphas. You are also a beneficiary!”
