I Topped the Aloof Omega in a Scummy Alpha Novel - Chapter 4
“Are you trying to sow discord in our marital relationship?”
A blue electronic screen unfolded. Xuan Yuchi, propping open her eyelids, read the words one by one, sounding weak and listless.
“Mission Description: The world you currently live in is a trashy Alpha (A) novel where the cheating rate is as high as eighty percent. Your former childhood friend has also suffered greatly from this, but in the early hours of this morning, her trashy spouse was body-swapped by a Transmigrator. The arrival of the Transmigrator will make this licentious world beyond saving.”
“Mission One: Go to Yunshui Villa, where Bian Yunchen resides, and stop the Transmigrator from completing the plot line—’Sister, it was all my fault before, please forgive me.'”
Xuan Yuchi frowned. Why did this sound like her own plot line?
Xuan Yuchi walked to the side of the road. The surroundings were so quiet it was as if a ghost was about to appear.
Xuan Yuchi: [666, lottery draw.]
System: [Please complete the designated action…]
Eight hundred meters…
Xuan Yuchi didn’t have time to complain. She immediately pulled her legs and ran towards the west.
She bumped into a middle-aged woman in business attire reeking of alcohol. Xuan Yuchi covered her nose and mouth.
System: [Congratulations! You have received a physical reward: one-time car usage rights.]
The tipsy woman compared Xuan Yuchi with the photo on her phone: “Designated driver, right?”
“Here.” She pulled out the car key from her pocket and tossed it to Xuan Yuchi.
Xuan Yuchi was greatly disappointed. She thought this broken system would conjure a car for her.
Xuan Yuchi: [Can you get something more high-end next time?]
System: [You can increase your luck value by triggering side missions. The higher the luck value, the more high-end the reward, oh.]
Xuan Yuchi: […]
Xuan Yuchi: [I suspect you’re not high-end enough. A clever housewife cannot cook without rice, understand?]
System: […]
System: [I can give you one extra reward.]
Heh, so this broken system could be bargained with.
Xuan Yuchi: [An iced Americano.]
The middle-aged woman: “To the CBD. Huh, why aren’t you starting the car yet?”
Xuan Yuchi: “I’m just warming up a bit. Auntie, you go to sleep. I’ll wake you up when we arrive.”
The woman tilted her head and drifted off to sleep.
Xuan Yuchi: “Iced Americano, iced Americano, please descend into Xuan Yuchi’s palm.”
Xuan Yuchi spread out her hand, and she received an iced Americano.
She took a big gulp, placed the iced Americano safely, and smirked proudly.
Sister Bian, I’m coming to save you.
A few hours ago, Bai Fu was rushed to the hospital after suddenly suffering a heart attack while clubbing. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in this world.
The system told her that this was an ABO novel titled Cold and Aloof Sister, Love Me Again.
According to the original plot, her family would fall from grace soon.
If she wanted to continue her life of wealth, she had to cling to one of the female leads, Bian Yunchen—who was also her wife—and complete the emotional storyline with her.
After hearing how much of a trashy person the original host was, Bai Fu was not scared at all; instead, she was full of confidence.
She was a veteran reader of the Green Website, having read no less than a hundred trashy Alpha novels. She knew all the clichés inside out.
She wanted both the money and the beautiful Omega.
As for the other female lead in the original novel, Xuan Yuchi, she was just an unremarkable paper person. How could she possibly compete with her?
“Achen, this is a bottle of red wine my mother personally hoarded. I specially brought it for you to taste.” Bai Fu’s gaze glanced into the house.
Why hadn’t Bian Yunchen invited her in yet?
The original host and Bian Yunchen had a marriage of convenience and hadn’t even lived together after the marriage. Could Bian Yunchen be hiding someone inside?
Bian Yunchen’s eyes were calm and waveless. The black shirt dress lent a hint of coolness to her noble demeanor. The diamond earrings dedicated to her by a private designer sparkled, every ray of light reminding outsiders—you shouldn’t get too close to me.
The title “Achen” was truly overstepping.
She had locked the courtyard gate when she entered. Because she often traveled abroad for filming and had no fixed residence, there were no cleaning staff or security guards at the villa.
But that didn’t mean she liked people sneaking in, trespassing on her private domain.
Just as she was about to warn Bai Fu, the sound of a car horn came from outside.
Two strong beams of light shone in. A woman was peeking and probing at the courtyard gate. She first knocked on the door, and seeing no response, she grabbed the fence and started climbing up, like a monkey from the Southeast.
Bian Yunchen swallowed the words caught in her throat.
Bai Fu’s System: [The paper person appearing now is your biggest competitor.]
Bai Fu rolled her eyes inwardly. She had received the key from Bian Yunchen’s mother and entered openly and honestly.
But the person opposite… and a competitor? Just look at her method of entry. It’s clear she has zero value.
Xuan Yuchi leaped from the top of the iron gate and landed steadily.
Worthy of her!
Sister Bian’s gate is so high. Anyone else would have broken their neck.
Seeing the two people from afar, Xuan Yuchi narrowed her eyes, her gaze jumping from Bian Yunchen to Bai Fu.
On the way, the system had given Xuan Yuchi a detailed explanation.
For example, the reason for the soaring rate of trashy Alphas in the otherwise normal world, and why countless people were losing their minds over marriage and A/O relationships, was all to pave the way for the Transmigrator’s arrival.
When all Alphas were trashy women, the Transmigrator, who arrived in this world with normal thought patterns, would become a hot commodity.
The so-called “Daughter of Destiny” even had morality pre-approved by fate.
Damn it. The thought that her inexplicable frenzy and running abroad to suffer were all because of this person made a surge of anger rush through Xuan Yuchi’s body. She quickened her steps towards Bai Fu.
Bian Yunchen scrutinized the expression of the said person and her aggressive state.
Was she here to catch a cheating spouse?
Didn’t Xuan Yuchi understand?
She and Bai Fu were already wives. Her anger had no basis. Even if they had a past, she had lost her right now.
Xuan Yuchi tightly grabbed Bai Fu’s collar.
She glared at her.
“You, you ‘Tianlong Ren’…”
Xuan Yuchi gritted her teeth: “It’s all your fault!”
Bai Fu looked at Bian Yunchen in a panic: “Achen, save me!”
The more Xuan Yuchi looked at her, the more she wanted to hit her.
Is she okay? Asking Yunchen to save her?
Doesn’t she realize how long she and Yunchen have known each other, and how long she has known Yunchen?
System: [A gentle reminder, they are wives now.]
Bian Yunchen: “Let her go.”
Xuan Yuchi slowly turned her head. Bian Yunchen’s face was calm and expressionless.
Ah! Xuan Yuchi screamed in her heart.
Had her Sister Bian also been tricked by this damn ‘Tianlong Ren’?
The system said that Bai Fu was here to apologize to Yunchen, hoping to make amends for her past frivolous behavior.
So, had Sister Bian forgiven her?
No.
It must be because Sister Bian simply didn’t care about this person.
She was forgiven lightly because she wasn’t cared about.
Xuan Yuchi let go of Bai Fu, clapped her hands, as if she had just touched something dirty: “Stop pretending. I’ll give you a piece of advice: a leopard cannot change its spots.”
She looked at Yunchen, very sincerely: “Sister Bian, you must not believe her nonsense. Cheating is zero times or countless times.”
Bai Fu hissed softly.
According to the original plot, Xuan Yuchi should be indifferent to Bian Yunchen right now. Why is she competing and fighting for her?
Did the plot have a bug?
Bai Fu dropped to her knees in front of Bian Yunchen, head lowered: “Achen, I was not good in the past, but since we are married, I must be responsible for you. I’m willing to do whatever you ask.”
“But regardless, this is an issue between the two of us.”
Xuan Yuchi smiled after hearing that, took a step, and blocked the space between them, lifting her arrogant chin.
“No, no, no. This can also be an issue between the three of us.”
Bai Fu thought, this person is so shameless.
Bian Yunchen crossed her arms, her fair, slender fingers gently tapping her arm. She was curious to see what trick Xuan Yuchi was up to.
Bai Fu: “Xuan Yuchi, interfering in another person’s marriage relationship is a crime punishable by imprisonment.”
Xuan Yuchi: “You’re full of…”
System: [It’s true.]
Xuan Yuchi: [When did that happen?]
System: [Right after you left, the country revised the law. Alpha cheating is generally fine, and the Alpha’s mistress is also fine. But Omega cheating is illegal, and if the Omega’s mistress is sued by the Alpha, they will go to jail.]
Xuan Yuchi: [That’s unfair!]
Xuan Yuchi forced herself to stay calm: “I’m not interfering in your marriage. I’m Sister Bian’s childhood friend, so naturally, I can’t stand by and watch her be deceived by you. This is called righteousness.”
The person behind her heard this and her fingers stopped, stiffly suspended above her arm.
Bai Fu: “Whether I’m deceiving her or not is not for you to say. The decision-making power is in Achen’s hands.”
Bian Yunchen walked to one side, opened the bottle of red wine Bai Fu had brought, and drank most of it in one go. A few drops of wine spilled onto her collar, which she wiped off, not bothering too much.
Finally, a bit of drunkenness set in, and a slight flush appeared on her flawless face.
The arrangement between her and the Bai family was a mutually understood exchange of interests. There was no need to cause a scene.
But now, she was drunk.
She asked Xuan Yuchi: “Then tell me, what method is there to verify if she is lying to me?”
Bai Fu looked stunned on the surface. Why did Bian Yunchen seem to be siding with Xuan Yuchi in her speech?
Xuan Yuchi pondered.
System: [Congratulations! You have earned the achievement: First Try.]
System: [By relying on your extraordinary confidence, you have successfully damaged the relationship between your ex-girlfriend and your ex-girlfriend’s current spouse, showing absolutely no shame despite being the ex…]
Xuan Yuchi: [Stop, just tell me the reward.]
System: [Daily lottery draw attempts upgraded. You can now draw twice a day.]
Xuan Yuchi: [Draw. I want to draw now.]
System: [Please complete the designated action…]
Xuan Yuchi: [Can I change it? I’m an adult; doing that is too undignified.]
System: [No.]
Xuan Yuchi mustered her courage, stuck out her tongue at Bai Fu, and made a silly face.
Bai Fu showed a look of contempt.
Elementary school kid.
Xuan Yuchi felt the other party’s contempt and haughtily turned her head away.
In reality, her inner self was furiously cursing the system.
Xuan Yuchi: [Are you deliberately trying to mess with me, making me do such an embarrassing action?!]
System: [I am not.]
Xuan Yuchi: [Host being humiliated means the system is incompetent!]
System: [Host, please calm your anger.]
System: [You have received a physical reward this time: a whip.]
System: [Please use this to fiercely whip the person who humiliated you.]
Xuan Yuchi’s inner self calmed down slightly.
Xuan Yuchi: [Where is the item? Where is it?]
System: [Feel your pants.]
Xuan Yuchi was wearing an oversized T-shirt and jeans. She put her hand into her pants pocket, and something cut her wrist.
She lifted her shirt edge and found a whip tied around her waist.
Xuan Yuchi: ……
She elegantly drew out the whip: “If you are willing to let Sister Bian whip you forty times, it will be considered a sign of your determination to repent.”
Bai Fu’s eyelids twitched. What kind of ancient-style woman carries a whip with her?
But she thought this would deter her?
What a joke. She had many years of experience in this regard.
Bai Fu took the whip, stood up, and handed it to Bian Yunchen: “Achen, if this is what it takes for you to forgive me, then I am willing.”
Xuan Yuchi’s pupils slightly widened. No way, is this person so ruthless?
Was Bai Fu a masochist in her world before transmigrating?
Xuan Yuchi snatched the whip back, pulling Bai Fu and Bian Yunchen apart. She stood on her tiptoes and whispered in Bian Yunchen’s ear: “Sister Bian, use all your strength to whip her later. She must be faking it; she won’t last long.”
Bian Yunchen: “Nonsense.”
A terrible thought struck Xuan Yuchi. Could it be that Sister Bian was reluctant to hit her…
There were relatives in the family whose commercial marriages eventually turned into true love. It wasn’t unheard of.
Xuan Yuchi looked at Bai Fu. From appearance to personality, Bai Fu didn’t resemble her in any way, did she?
So, the idea that Bai Fu was her substitute didn’t hold up. Sister Bian must have another reason.
She blinked her eyes and said with a playful smile: “Anyway, Sister Bian, you won’t believe her, right?”
Bai Fu: “Achen…”
Bian Yunchen remained silent.
Bai Fu: “Achen, I have patience and time, and you will see my sincerity. It’s getting late, I’ll head back first.”
Only Xuan Yuchi and Bian Yunchen remained here. The air suddenly turned cold.
In the past, when they walked side by side, even in silence, Xuan Yuchi never felt awkward. That was their unspoken understanding. People who feel secure in a relationship aren’t afraid of silence.
Bian Yunchen turned and entered the living room, throwing the unfinished bottle of red wine into the trash can.
Xuan Yuchi followed her in, just about to say goodbye and leave.
Bian Yunchen closed in on her: “Why did you come to my house?”
Xuan Yuchi froze.
She couldn’t possibly say the system told her to come, could she?
She was best at fabricating sweet lies to trick people, and she said whatever came to mind: “Because I missed you.”
Bian Yunchen saw right through her intentions and sneered: “If today’s events were known by outsiders, who knows what kind of rumors would spread.”
Xuan Yuchi suddenly realized. But how was she supposed to know that the current marriage law was so unfair to Omegas?
However, since Bai Fu came to seek reconciliation, she wouldn’t say anything that might harm Yunchen. At most, she would slander Xuan Yuchi as the mistress.
Xuan Yuchi meekly defended herself: “I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Her footing suddenly felt a little slippery. Every step Bian Yunchen took forward, she would take a step back.
Until she was backed against the door, and Bian Yunchen’s hand reached past her side, closing the door behind them in an almost encompassing posture.
The distance between the two was barely an arm’s length. Bian Yunchen stared at her, locking her in place.
“Not on purpose?”
Xuan Yuchi smelled the faint scent of alcohol on her, and she could even distinguish the unique body fragrance of Yunchen wrapped within it. Her face couldn’t help but blush.
Bian Yunchen’s face was cold: “So, you accidentally caused trouble for my marital relationship, completely oblivious to the serious consequences your actions might bring?”
Xuan Yuchi: “What serious consequences…”
Could it be that Yunchen would go to jail…?
She was framed within the constraints of Bian Yunchen’s eyes, yet no silent melting of snow could be seen there.
Bian Yunchen suppressed the surging warmth, took a deep breath: “In the most serious case, I could get divorced because of this.”
