Redeeming that Beautiful, Strong, and Miserable Omega [Transmigrated into a Book] - Chapter 14

Chapter 14: Taking Classes

Aaaahhhhhh!

Why did the female lead suddenly say something like that to me?

And asking me to be a good girl…

Wen Yan’s entire face flushed scarlet. Her gaze was evasive, looking everywhere but daring to meet Xu Ruozhou’s eyes.

“Master.”

Lin Xi’s voice suddenly appeared at Wen Yan’s most awkward moment, sounding like a celestial melody, offering her a moment of respite from the female lead’s oppressive presence.

The black-haired maid lowered her eyelashes, standing in a position that conveniently separated the two.

“Miss Xu, someone is calling for you.”

Xu Ruozhou frowned slightly, but Wen Yan shot a grateful look at Lin Xi, feeling a profound sense of relief.

She then stood up and darted out the door like a monkey escaping the zoo.

During her escape, she didn’t forget to report to Xu Ruozhou, “Wife, I’m going to take the call first!”

After Wen Yan slipped away, only Lin Xi and Xu Ruozhou remained in the villa.

“Miss Xu, if you have no further instructions, I’ll take my leave. There are other matters in the villa that require my attention.”

With that, Lin Xi prepared to leave with the account book.

Before she could take a step, a chilling voice from behind stopped her.

“Stop.”

Lin Xi’s steps slightly paused. She turned around, humbly lowering her head. “Miss Xu, is there anything else I can do for you?”

Xu Ruozhou stared coldly at her.

The black-haired maid had straight-cut bangs that went past her eyebrows. When she lowered her head, the bangs not only covered her entire forehead but also her eyes, making her emotions unreadable, only giving the impression of meekness and obedience.

Wen Yan was fooled by this kind of person.

Keeping a wolf disguised as a dog in the house.

How could the owner have a good outcome?

Xu Ruozhou said in a cold voice, “Lift your head and push back your bangs.”

Lin Xi’s body stiffened upon hearing this. “Miss Xu, I…”

“What?” Xu Ruozhou sneered. “Ashamed to show your face?”

“No, I just worry that…”

Xu Ruozhou lost patience and pinched her chin, forcing her to look up.

Her reddish-brown eyes fearlessly stared into the ruthless, inorganic dark eyes. Her other hand didn’t hesitate to push back the thick bangs of the calculating servant.

With just one look, Xu Ruozhou’s expression changed.

Hidden beneath the bangs was a severely scalded forehead. The red lesion aggressively encroached upon the young girl’s smooth skin, making her face look frightening.

Xu Ruozhou’s pupils constricted. Lin Xi quickly adjusted her bangs, lowered her head again, and was trembling all over, even her voice was timid.

“I’m sorry, Miss Xu. I-I didn’t mean to disobey you.”

“…I was just afraid of scaring you.”

“Who did this?” Xu Ruozhou clenched her fists.

Lin Xi remained silent with her head bowed.

Xu Ruozhou asked again, her voice slightly shaking with anger. “Lin Xi, tell me, who injured you like this?”

Still silence.

Xu Ruozhou had a guess in her mind. Just as she was about to speak again, the perpetually silent Lin Xi suddenly knelt down, revealing the answer.

The black-haired maid pressed her forehead against the floor, two streams of clear tears sliding down her flawless cheeks. “My Master doesn’t like others knowing I have injuries.”

“Miss Xu, I beg you, please don’t tell the Master that you know. Besides the Wen family, I have nowhere else to go.”

Was Wen Yan the one who harmed Lin Xi?

Xu Ruozhou didn’t completely believe Lin Xi’s words. The Wen Yan she knew wouldn’t take pleasure in tormenting the weak.

More accurately, the Wen Yan who constantly clung to her now was definitely not that kind of person.

Although skeptical, Xu Ruozhou secretly intensified her investigation into Wen Yan, becoming even more curious about her past self.

What could possibly cause the same person to undergo such a fundamental change?

Or, were they not the same person at all?

The Wen Group’s development was booming, and Xu Ruozhou also received her first vacation since taking over Wen Yan’s family business: a full two weeks.

Early in the morning, before Xu Ruozhou could even wash up, the Alpha excitedly dragged her out the door.

The sun was blinding. Xu Ruozhou squinted for a while before her eyes adjusted to the outdoor light.

She looked up and saw four people standing neatly in front of her. They were holding a violin, a golf club, textbooks, and one person was leading a white horse.

Xu Ruozhou looked at Wen Yan in confusion, only to see Wen Yan raising her head and saying cheerfully, “Wife, these are the tutors I hired for you.”

Tutors?

This word had been absent from Xu Ruozhou’s life for too long.

The last time she heard someone lecturing was when the Xu family, finding her ignorant, punished her by forcing her to listen to the family rules and copy them one hundred times.

After observing the female lead’s expression for a while, Wen Yan still couldn’t tell if she was happy or unhappy.

She should be happy, right?

Doesn’t matter. No matter what, I can’t let the fake daughter succeed at the engagement banquet.

Wen Yan remembered that in the original book, Xu Ruozhou hadn’t been educated and didn’t even understand basic gender differentiation.

Aside from her natural intelligence, Xu Ruozhou had almost no noteworthy hobbies. In contrast, the fake daughter who stole Xu Ruozhou’s life was a “jack of all trades” with many hobbies.

Perhaps afraid that Xu Ruozhou was displeased, Wen Yan cautiously tugged her sleeve. “Wife, don’t be mad. I specifically selected these tutors; they are masters in their respective fields.”

“When you’re out and about, there will inevitably be social engagements. It’s good to have many skills; if I’m not by your side, you can handle things on your own.”

Wen Yan didn’t mention that the fake daughter would deliberately call Xu Ruozhou on stage to perform at the engagement banquet, afraid that revealing too much would land her in trouble.

Xu Ruozhou raised her eyes. Her reddish-brown pupils landed on the Alpha’s serious, almost pious face, and the lips that occasionally tightened when she spoke.

Like an angel.

“Wife, did you hear what I said?”

The Alpha’s long, slender fingers waved in front of Xu Ruozhou’s eyes. Xu Ruozhou snapped back to attention, her ears slightly warm. “Got it, stop nagging.”

Hearing the female lead agree, Wen Yan finally broke into a smile, hugging her arm and giggling foolishly.

The four people standing opposite looked at each other. Xu Ruozhou blushed and fiercely pinched Wen Yan’s thigh muscle, making Wen Yan grimace in pain.

“You two have such a good relationship.” The equestrian teacher commented. “The last time I saw a couple interact like this was Professor He Lan and…”

Realizing he had misspoken, the equestrian teacher immediately fell silent, his face showing annoyance.

Everyone’s attention fell on the white-haired, yet elegantly composed Omega violinist standing in the center.

Hearing the name He Lan, Wen Yan immediately gave Xu Ruozhou a slight push on her back.

Xu Ruozhou looked at her in confusion, only to see the Alpha winking and blinking at her frantically, as if to say.

Go for it, wife!

Xu Ruozhou: …

Although she didn’t understand why Wen Yan cared so much about this early-famed violinist, Xu Ruozhou still took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with her, politely saying, “Professor He Lan, although I am very surprised to see you here, it is my honor to become your student and receive your guidance.”

!!!

Oh my goodness!

Wen Yan’s eyes widened. For the first time, she felt the sheer power of the plot.

Even though Xu Ruozhou met her benefactor, He Lan, before her divorce, she still said the exact same words as in the plot.

“I am also very happy to meet you, Miss Xu.”

He Lan smiled. “But it’s too early to call me ‘Professor’.”

“I only teach talented students. If you don’t meet my standards, I’m afraid CEO Wen will have to look for someone else.”

“Oh?” Xu Ruozhou looked at Wen Yan, who guiltily averted her gaze. In reality, the other three were hired merely to fill the spots, just so Xu Ruozhou could logically meet He Lan.

She utilized the known plot details, leveraging an information advantage to find this violin prodigy who had vanished from the internet.

After the death of her wife, the famous violinist He Lan spends her days in tears.

No one knew that this violin genius, who used to tour the world, was sleeping on a park bench where she and her wife first met.

Then, on a stormy night, an umbrella opened above He Lan’s head. The silhouette of the person strongly resembled her lover.

He Lan went completely crazy, grabbing the person’s hand. “Darling, have you come to take me away?”

When her fingertips touched the palm, she suddenly woke up. “No, you’re not her.”

The person holding the umbrella did not have the calluses from years of training. This was not a hand that had played the violin, but…

…It was very suitable for practicing.

He Lan followed this hand, which was a work of art, upward and saw a pair of reddish-brown eyes. She trembled.

That was the look of a demon who had gone through hell and was determined to cut down everything with her own hands, exactly like her deceased wife.

He Lan’s eyes were astonishingly bright. Ignoring her physical weakness, she climbed up from the park bench. “W-what is your name?”

“My name is…”

“No, no, I don’t need to know your name.” He Lan interrupted incoherently. “You just need to answer me: are you willing to be my student? I can teach you everything I know!”

“Professor He Lan, although I am very surprised to see you here, it is my honor to become your student and receive your guidance.”

Xu Ruozhou was expressionless.

Thunder rumbled in the sky, as if this moment was a pre-written divine will.

Wen Yan stepped forward, putting her arm around Xu Ruozhou’s shoulder, and confidently declared to the violinist, who was suffering from the grief of losing her wife, “Professor He Lan, don’t worry. My wife is absolutely a one-in-a-million genius. She will definitely satisfy you.”

Xu Ruozhou glanced at her, slightly displeased by her confident assertion. He Lan gazed at the distant gray sky and sighed. “Let’s hope so.”

The half-month intensive training began. Xu Ruozhou’s hard-won vacation was completely filled by Wen Yan. She shuttled between the golf course and the violin practice room every day.

The horses at the stable grew thinner, the tutor responsible for catching her up on ABO biology talked until their mouth was raw, the golf coach’s arm ached from swinging, and the harsh sound of the violin chased away all the animals.

And the culprit of all this lay sprawled on the sofa all day, drinking cola, watching identical melodramatic shows, and gaining three pounds.

One day, as Wen Yan was curled up on the sofa, unfamiliar footsteps approached from behind. She initially thought it was a maid coming to clean and paid no mind, but when the person reached her, her eyes widened.

“P-Professor He Lan, why are you here?”

He Lan expressionlessly slapped a card onto the Alpha’s lap. “Your wife has no talent. I cannot teach her. I am returning all the tuition fees.”

“Please find another renowned instructor, CEO Wen.”
