Reborn as a Scummy Alpha, I Became Every Heroine's Obsession - Chapter 33

Gu Qiqi hadn’t yet figured out what was going on.

Before she could react, Feng Jiying’s lips were already moving toward her.

Startled, Gu Qiqi grabbed Feng Jiying by the shoulders and immediately turned her head away, refusing to let her get what she wanted.

Was this a joke?

The 200,000 credits promised in the car hadn’t even been transferred to her terminal yet, and now Feng Jiying wanted to get handsy? Did she really think Gu Qiqi was some naive idiot?

Just this afternoon, Feng Jiying had suddenly and unreasonably kicked her out of the car.

Gu Qiqi hadn’t even had a chance to settle that score. And now, here she was at night, putting on a soft act and trying to make peace.

These Omegas really knew how to bend and adapt when they needed to.

Gu Qiqi said sharply, “Feng Jiying, pull yourself together and take a good look at who I am.”

Feng Jiying was wearing her metal-rimmed glasses, but her long hair wasn’t tied up.

It flowed down to her waist, and a blush had risen on her cheeks.

“I know exactly who you are, Gu Qiqi…”

“If you know who I am and you’re still doing this, then you must be out of your mind.”

“I’m not crazy,” Feng Jiying replied as she shook her head. She struggled against Gu Qiqi’s grip, trying to break free, but her strength was no match for Gu Qiqi.

A bitter smile appeared on her lips as she shrugged her shoulders slightly. “This is the difference between an Omega and an Alpha. An Omega can never truly resist an Alpha.”

Gu Qiqi was speechless.

“Excuse me? Who exactly can’t resist who? You were the one trying to kiss me just now. And now you’re playing the victim?” Gu Qiqi’s sharp eyes widened. She couldn’t believe how naturally Feng Jiying was twisting the story.

“And you still haven’t explained why you suddenly threw me out of the car this afternoon. Just because I’m an Alpha from the fringe district, does that mean I don’t deserve basic respect? Is this how high-class Omegas behave? Acting however they want and treating people like they’re nothing?

“You may have saved me once, but I’ve saved you too. We’re even. If you don’t want to owe me, then don’t mess with me. I, Gu Qiqi, am not someone who can be pushed around.”

Gu Qiqi honestly thought she was having a serious conversation with Feng Jiying.

But Feng Jiying calmly took off her gold-rimmed glasses and carelessly tossed them to the floor.

Her eyes locked onto Gu Qiqi’s, dark and unreadable, filled with emotion.

She gave a faint laugh. “So what if I threw you out? What are you going to do about it? Come bite me?”

“Seriously?”

Gu Qiqi was completely confused.

This was the same Feng Jiying who had been cold and distant in the car earlier, the same one who had argued with her. And now she was acting like a completely different person.

Was this really the president of Feng Corporation? How could she be so childish and unpredictable?

Feng Jiying continued, her voice dripping with sarcasm, “Besides, someone picked you up after I left you behind. In a way, you should be thanking me. If I hadn’t kicked you out, how would you have ended up in Liu Huaiqing’s car?”

Only then did Gu Qiqi realize that something was wrong with Feng Jiying.

“You’ve got a fever. Don’t tell me it’s messing with your brain.”

[System Notification]: Host, according to the game settings, Omega bodies are especially fragile. An Omega triggered into heat becomes highly sensitive, and after the heat period ends, even slight physical or emotional stress can cause a relapse. If exposed to rain, fear, or other stimuli, they may experience high fever, confusion, or mental disorientation. Host, you must help Feng Jiying cool down immediately.

Gu Qiqi felt like laughing.

Whenever something happened to the main character, supporting characters like her were expected to sacrifice themselves to help. Right?

Well, not this time.

Why should the protagonist get to do whatever she wants?

Gu Qiqi had dignity too. If no one else would respect her, she would respect herself.

She let go of Feng Jiying and said, “You’ve got a fever. I’m not going to argue with someone who’s sick. What’s your private doctor’s number? I’ll call them for you.”

She grabbed Feng Jiying’s wrist and opened her terminal, randomly tapping through it to try and find the contact.

But Feng Jiying only leaned in closer, drawn to Gu Qiqi’s body heat.

She didn’t want Gu Qiqi to leave.

Her mind was in chaos. Even after forcing herself to take a cold shower, her head was still filled with the image of Gu Qiqi getting into Liu Huaiqing’s car, playing over and over again.

“Why did you get into Liu Huaiqing’s car?” she murmured.

Gu Qiqi blinked. “What?”

Feng Jiying knew that she and Gu Qiqi had been matched by the Federal Government. She had no feelings for Gu Qiqi, and her family would never allow her to marry an Alpha from the fringe district, someone with no background or influence.

From a young age, she believed that as a fragile Omega, she would never be interested in any Alpha. She had promised herself to keep her mind and body united, fully devoted to her family’s business.

She would never become an Alpha’s possession or a slave to her own pheromones.

But now, something had changed. Why did her chest hurt so much?

It felt like someone was squeezing her heart, making it hard to breathe. Every breath she took was filled with Gu Qiqi’s scent.

She pulled her hand away and said, “I’m not sick. I’m completely clear-headed.”

“Oh, come on. What kind of idiot admits they’re an idiot? If you’re so clear-headed, then transfer me 500,000 credits right now.”

Feng Jiying stared at her, confused by Gu Qiqi’s obsession with money. “Why do you care about money so much?”

Gu Qiqi looked at her like she was completely clueless. “You’re the most privileged Omega in Central City. The only legitimate heiress of the Feng family. The sole successor to Feng Corporation. With a single word, people fall over themselves to please you. You have endless wealth. Of course you don’t get it.

“In the fringe district, people are willing to risk their lives just to eat. Do you know how expensive bread is out there? Do you know how much a family has to sacrifice just so one kid can take the university entrance exams held in Central City? Some kids can’t even afford the registration fee. And orphans like me? We don’t even qualify to take the exam.

“And now you’re asking me why I like money? In the entire Interstellar Federation, who doesn’t? If you don’t care about money so much, then why don’t you give me all of yours?”

Feng Jiying had grown up in luxury.

She had always treated money and people like toys. From her high position, she had never looked down on those below because she never cared enough to look.

She was born to be like the moon in the sky.

Distant, proud, beautiful, and out of reach.

But now, looking into Gu Qiqi’s eyes, she saw something different.

Gu Qiqi’s eyes were clear and honest. She didn’t hide her desire. She wanted money, and that was all. There were no games, no hidden meanings.

Feng Jiying paused for a moment, then said softly, “Fine. I’ll give it to you.”

Gu Qiqi truly felt that Feng Jiying had lost her mind. The fever had clearly fried her brain.

What was the name of Feng Jiying’s assistant again?

Right. It was Xiao Bai. She should probably call Xiao Bai first, because their CEO was about to give away all her assets to someone.

Gu Qiqi said, “You say you’ll give it to me and I’m just supposed to believe you? Then give it to me right now.”

Feng Jiying shook her head. “Not now. But when the time is right, whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.”

She still hadn’t uncovered the truth about her parents’ deaths.

But she felt she was very close.

Gu Qiqi raised an eyebrow. “How is that any different from saying nothing at all? If that’s the case, I could say I’ll give you my life… when the time is right.”

She imitated Feng Jiying’s tone, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

Gu Qiqi was full of life and spirit.

Feng Jiying’s fingertips gently grazed against each other. Her eyes locked onto Gu Qiqi’s face as her heart thudded heavily in her chest, each beat no longer feeling like it belonged only to her.

“Alright. Then we’ll consider it settled.”

Gu Qiqi blinked. “Wait. Settled what?”

She glanced down at the contact labeled “Bai something.” “Is this your secretary’s number?”

Just as she was about to tap it, her terminal chimed loudly.

[Incoming call from Liu Huaiqing. Incoming call from Liu Huaiqing. Would you like to answer?]

Gu Qiqi wasn’t good with technology. All her device settings were still in default mode, including the elderly voice-assist alerts. The voice reminder was comically loud.

Feng Jiying’s expression darkened immediately. Her gaze zeroed in on the terminal on Gu Qiqi’s wrist.

“You’re with me and still thinking about another Omega? Alphas really are greedy creatures.”

She grabbed Gu Qiqi’s wrist and forcefully ended the call notification.

Then she held Gu Qiqi’s chin, her eyes locked with hers in a stubborn stare.

“Look at me. Only me.”

And with that, she kissed her.

After a few real encounters, Feng Jiying’s kissing skills had improved dramatically.

She had learned what it meant to move slowly and with intention.

A top student was a top student for a reason. No matter the subject, she absorbed knowledge faster than anyone else.

Her movements were gentle, each touch full of purpose, gradually drawing Gu Qiqi into a shared descent.

She undid the buttons of Gu Qiqi’s shirt, craving the warmth of her body.

Since the death of her parents, Feng Jiying had always been alone.

She knew that the elders and relatives in the Feng family viewed her with hostility. As a female Omega, the law of interstellar society dictated that once she married, she would lose all rights to the family inheritance.

So there were always people scheming to pair her off with an Alpha.

She knew better than to fall into that trap.

No one in this world ever truly cared about her.

No one ever put her first. Everyone who approached her did so for power, wealth, or personal gain.

Even the elders who claimed to act in her best interest, telling her to stay away from Gu Qiqi, were only trying to prevent the Feng family’s assets from being seized or manipulated by the Federation.

But Feng Corporation was built by her parents.

If anyone wanted to take it, they’d have to be ready to pay the price.

That was why she had always guarded herself against others. Over time, she believed she had grown used to the loneliness.

She thought she had become strong enough to never need anyone again.

But the more time she spent with Gu Qiqi, the more she realized how addictive warmth could be.

Feng Jiying no longer cared whether her feelings were being influenced by Gu Qiqi’s pheromones. She craved her touch, the look in her eyes, every word from her mouth.

She wanted to merge Gu Qiqi into her very blood so they would never be apart again. That was the only way to stop this restless ache in her heart.

For the first time, Gu Qiqi understood what it meant to be kissed breathless. Even as a physically strong Alpha, she felt like she was drowning.

Gasping for air, she tugged at the back of Feng Jiying’s neck. “Director Feng, if you’re unhappy, just say so. But don’t try to suffocate me. It’s embarrassing for an Alpha.”

Feng Jiying pushed Gu Qiqi down onto the sofa.

Both of them had long legs, tangled together. Their bodies pressed closely, inseparable.

Feng Jiying recalled scenes she had unintentionally come across before.

She had never deliberately studied how to please an Alpha.

But because of her strong memory, she had remembered every detail of the 330 Military Academy’s curriculum on how to tame an Omega.

She never wanted to become an Alpha’s wife or their subordinate.

Yet now, she found herself instinctively using those techniques to win over the Alpha beneath her, to make sure Gu Qiqi could only see her, want her, and think of her.

She inhaled the scent of Gu Qiqi’s skin. Her lips traced her cheeks, nose, and eyelids, softly and slowly, her warm breath fanning across Gu Qiqi’s face.

They looked like ancient swans, necks entwined, inseparable in their closeness.

[System Notification]: Host, at this rate, Feng Jiying might actually fall in love with you. Your spiritual strength and pheromone levels are too high, which creates a false sense of dependence in Omegas. Remember, in this game system, everyone in interstellar society worships strength.

Gu Qiqi’s heart began to waver.

She remembered how Feng Jiying had come to her rescue like a god descending in her darkest hour.

She also remembered what the male Alpha in the car had said earlier that afternoon when Feng Jiying had pressed Gu Qiqi’s head to her chest to protect her.

Feng Jiying had crossed a dangerous line within the Feng family for her.

Because of the nature of the game’s system, Gu Qiqi didn’t believe in emotions.

With the A-B-O structure, people were driven by pheromones. It was almost impossible to tell if the feelings they had were real or just desires.

Feng Jiying suddenly said, “Why are you distracted? Who are you thinking about?”

She grabbed Gu Qiqi’s collar, forcing her to look into her eyes. The narrow almond-shaped eyes were filled with deep, unreadable emotion.

“Feng Jiying, you better not regret this when you wake up tomorrow.”

Gu Qiqi met her gaze head-on, refusing to back down.

She had never feared anything her entire life.

Growing up in the fringe district, she had never once felt ashamed of her origins.

She was who she was. Even if she was just a background character in someone else’s story, she was still the protagonist of her own.

She just wanted to live her life peacefully.

Feng Jiying curled her lips into a cold smile. “I, Feng Jiying, never regret anything I do. No one controls me.”

“Good.”

“Then don’t blame me for being rough.”

Gu Qiqi suddenly flipped their positions. Now it was Feng Jiying beneath her. The Alpha’s dominant presence sent Feng Jiying’s heart racing and her breath quickening.

In the room, the sweet scent of her pheromones began to blend with the aroma of Gu Qiqi’s coffee-like pheromones.

The coffee scent chased and intertwined with the sweetness, mixing together.

“Since Director Feng says she never regrets anything, don’t blame me if I don’t go easy on you.”

Principal’s Office, 330 Military Academy

The perverted principal paced back and forth in front of the school’s surveillance monitors.

“Useless. You couldn’t even track down two people? Are you sure one was an Omega and the other an Alpha?”

Zhao Zhongtian clutched his red, swollen cheek and nodded silently.

“Based on the pheromones that drifted through the air, it was a high-level Alpha and an Omega.”

Last time, the perverted principal’s fun was abruptly interrupted, forcing him to end things hastily.

He had always hidden himself well.

And he only ever targeted Alphas from the fringe districts.

Alphas from those areas generally had stronger mental strength and physical abilities. He especially enjoyed crushing their rebellious pride and sense of superiority, completely stripping them of their dignity.

“Principal, someone tampered with the surveillance footage. There are signs of a hacker breaching the system.”

Zhao Zhongtian pointed at the seemingly normal screen that had in fact been overwritten. “This segment already appeared once earlier. The hacker is highly skilled. There were no traces left behind. Should we alert the tech department?”

“You want more people to know about this and ruin me? Don’t get any funny ideas. I could make you disappear as easily as squashing an ant. Then let’s see how your precious little brother begs me to bring his good brother back. Truly touching, your brotherly bond.”

Zhao Zhongtian’s eyes widened. His pupils trembled slightly. “I was wrong. I’ll do everything I can to get this done.”

The principal rubbed his greasy chin. “If a hacker is involved, someone is clearly planning to move against me.”

The interstellar economy had already begun to unravel. Power was being divided. The Federal President no longer held real authority, with old aristocratic families and emerging factions splitting control.

These old families had long dominated the economy and now wanted a piece of the political power as well.

The principal turned his gaze back to Zhao Zhongtian.

“Keep a close eye on this batch of first-year students. See who might be useful to me.”

Zhao Zhongtian lowered his head. His hair covered the red mark on his face. “Yes, sir.”

The principal grabbed his chin and forced his head up.

“You’d better be useful to me. Otherwise, I’ll start with your precious little brother. You two were handpicked by me from the fringe zone. Don’t disappoint me. Do you understand?”

Zhao Zhongtian turned his head to break free from the man’s grip. A flicker of resistance passed through his eyes.

“Why me?”

Instead of getting angry, the principal laughed gleefully.

“That’s right. Use that face. Use that unwilling, rebellious look when you stare at me. That’s exactly what he looked like. One day, I will make every Omega in this society disappear. I want to see how Gong Suizhi survives then. This is the price he pays for rejecting me.”

An Omega who dared dream of Alpha rights. How pathetic.

Zhao Zhongtian had already killed the principal a thousand times in his mind, but he didn’t yet have the power to act.

“Principal, what should I do about Gu Qiqi? It’s difficult to get close to her.”

He was trying to divert the principal’s attention, hoping to keep him from focusing on his brother.

He could endure anything, any humiliation, but his brother could not.

“I will make you the vice class leader of Class 3, Year 1, and later promote you to vice president of the first-year division. During your missions, find out what Gu Qiqi’s secret is. Observe whether the Federal Government or any factions are trying to recruit her. Most importantly, find her weakness.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Enough unpleasant talk. At least I haven’t lost interest in you yet. Among all the Alphas who resemble him in personality, you also look the most like him. So rare, that ghost-pale skin without a drop of blood. You should cherish the blessing fate has given you. Please me well, and I’ll make sure you and your brother live like kings.”

Gong Suizhi had been too strong. Proud and ruthless, with unmatched abilities. No other Omega in the interstellar society was like him.

Zhao Zhongtian stepped forward, offering himself willingly.

“Yes, sir.”

But hatred flashed in his eyes.

He had no power to fight the strong. But to keep from going insane, he redirected his hatred toward someone just like him—Gu Qiqi, who was also from the fringe district.

If only the principal had picked Gu Qiqi instead of him, then he and his brother wouldn’t have to suffer this fate. He could have lived in the light, becoming a star Alpha in Central City.

He envied Gu Qiqi’s luck. He hated that she was protected by the Federal Government. They were both high-level Alphas. So why did she get everything?

In this broken world, how could he protect his brother?

At that moment, the game’s storyline began to unfold according to its original trajectory.

Gu Qiqi’s system suddenly blared out an alert.

[System Alert: Warning! Hidden Plot XX-00 has been triggered. Current storyline has forcibly deviated from host’s control. Please pay attention. Please pay attention.]

Feng Family Villa

The sunlight was completely blocked out by thick curtains. Not a single ray slipped through.

The person lying in bed resembled a delicate porcelain doll, peacefully curled up under the covers.

She lay elegantly on her side, the blanket slightly shifted to reveal the smooth skin of her back.

Suddenly, she turned over and instinctively reached out beside her.

Only to find emptiness.

A cold void that made her heart race.

Feng Jiying’s long, narrow eyes snapped open.

In that moment, her gaze was already clear. There was no confusion.

There was no warmth beside her. Not even the faintest trace of sweet-scented pheromones in the air.

What was going on?

Why did she instinctively feel there should be a sweet scent in the room?

Her whole body ached.

Even her gland throbbed. She reached back to touch the nape of her neck and felt two deep bite marks.

Her head was a little dizzy.

Feng Jiying quietly pieced together the events of last night.

The wild scenes burst into her memory like fireworks.

Her fingers froze.

So last night, she and Gu Qiqi had…

Just then, her terminal lit up with a call.

Xiao Bai: “President, don’t worry. Miss Gu has already moved out overnight. There’s not a single trace of her left in the villa. Everything was completely cleaned up by Hanhan.”

Feng Jiying: “What? Why did Gu Qiqi move out?”

She didn’t even realize the anxiety in her voice.

Xiao Bai: “Didn’t you say you wanted to cancel the forced match with her? The Feng elders have already submitted a joint petition to the Federal President, and it was approved. Miss Gu has officially moved out. I don’t know if your next match will be with Miss Wen or Miss Liu. Both seem to like Miss Gu, though, so it might not even count as forced. Who knows, one of them might actually end up marrying her.”

Xiao Bai cheerfully rambled on, counting on her fingers as she painted a lively picture.

Xiao Bai: “President, why is your terminal glitching?”

For the first time, Feng Jiying understood what it meant to clench your jaw in frustration yet be unable to explode.

She took a long, deep breath.

Feng Jiying: “Xiao Bai… about your year-end bonus…”

Xiao Bai: “I know you’re happy, President, but there’s still something else. You haven’t graded Miss Gu’s evaluation report yet. Only if you give her an A-plus will your match officially be canceled. Should I bring the file to you now?”

Feng Jiying: “Your year-end bonus is canceled.”

The moment the call ended, a scream echoed from the secretary’s office.

Who said tsundere CEOs were easy to handle?
