The Five Heartless Scumbag Alphas Turned Against Each Other Because Of Me - Chapter 114

Sheng Yiheng stood there, completely stunned, eyes wide and mouth slightly open as she stared at Lu Huaixu in disbelief. For a second, she wondered if she’d misheard.

Wait—what did she just say? Hua agreed to be her girlfriend today? Something this important, and the Omega hadn’t said a word to her?

And besides, what did Lu Huaixu have that could actually win Tan Hua over?

Was it her family background, her looks, her sweet words? Or was it that cold, distant act she put on, which somehow gave off a subtle, irresistible charm? Could it be that, behind closed doors, Lu Huaixu had some soft, lovable side that no one else knew about?

Sheng Yiheng felt like she was about to explode. Her chest tightened with rage, and her breathing quickened. Seriously?! They’d agreed to compete fairly, and now this sly, manipulative fox had stolen the prize right from under her nose—and actually pulled it off!

“I don’t believe it,” she said through gritted teeth, doing her best to keep calm on the outside. “Not unless I hear it from Hua herself.”

“You’re just trying to mess with my head—trying to throw me off so I’ll make a mistake,” Sheng Yiheng added with a cold smile. “It’s not going to work. You can forget it.”

Lu Huaixu simply shrugged, clearly unfazed. “Believe what you want.”

She had no interest in arguing with someone like Sheng Yiheng—someone lucky but clueless. With her hands in her pockets, Lu Huaixu turned and casually walked toward the house next door, her long legs carrying her away with ease.

Under the soft orange glow of the streetlamp, her shadow stretched across the pavement, making her tall figure look even more striking.

Sheng Yiheng stood frozen, clenching her jaw so hard it felt like her teeth might crack. She looked at Lu Huaixu’s retreating figure, then at the door Tan Hua had just closed.

Finally, she clenched her fists, turned around, and started pounding on the door. “Open up—I need to talk to you.”

Tan Hua had just made it upstairs and hadn’t even sat down properly when she saw Sheng Yiheng’s furious face appear on the video doorbell screen.

She frowned, confused. She couldn’t figure out why Sheng Yiheng was suddenly this angry, but instead of asking questions, she simply gave her the code to the smart lock. “Come in and find a seat. I’m going to wash up first.”

Her voice was calm and cold, completely indifferent. Sheng Yiheng stared at the camera with a pitiful expression, but in the end, she entered the code and obediently sat down on the sofa in the living room to wait.

She knew she wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight until she got answers.

After sending the code, Tan Hua didn’t say another word. She stayed in the bathroom for over an hour, taking her time, and only came downstairs after wrapping her hair in a towel.

As soon as she appeared, Sheng Yiheng jumped to her feet, looking deeply hurt. “Is it true? You said yes to being Lu Huaixu’s girlfriend?”

Tan Hua paused, thinking for a moment. Who told her? Was it Lu Huaixu just now?

“How did you find out?” she asked. “Did Lu Huaixu tell you?”

“Don’t worry about how I found out,” Sheng Yiheng snapped. “Just answer the question.”

But even without a direct answer, Sheng Yiheng could already tell from Tan Hua’s reaction. If it had been false, knowing the Omega’s personality, she would’ve immediately exploded in anger and denied it on the spot.

But she didn’t.

Her first reaction wasn’t to deny it—it was simply to ask, confused, who had let the secret slip. That alone shattered Sheng Yiheng’s heart into pieces.

“Is it true?” she asked again, still clinging to a shred of hope, unwilling to give up so easily.

Since Sheng Yiheng had basically already guessed the truth, Tan Hua saw no point in hiding it anymore. Leaning casually against the stair railing, she admitted it openly, “It’s true…”

But before she could even finish, Sheng Yiheng started rambling.

“Baby, how could something as cold as that come out of your 37-degree lips?”

“Am I not better than Lu Huaixu? Or… have you already gotten tired of me? Is it that I don’t excite you anymore, that there’s nothing new or fresh about me?”

“What is it about her that you find so attractive? Tell me—whatever it is, I’ll learn it. If I can’t beat her, I’ll copy her, replace her, and become her.”

Sheng Yiheng was heartfelt and intense, every word soaked in desperation. “If it’s really just her looks you like, I’ll get plastic surgery. I’ll turn myself into her exact image. And if there’s anything off, you just say the word—I’ll keep going until you’re completely satisfied. What do you think?”

Tan Hua: “…”

She did not think that was a good idea.

The mere thought of seeing two Lu Huaixus standing in front of her made Tan Hua shudder.

Sheng Yiheng sounded so serious—too serious. Tan Hua didn’t doubt that if she nodded right then, Sheng Yiheng would book a surgery appointment before sunrise. No—she’d probably call a clinic tonight and be on an operating table by morning.

Tan Hua had to shut down this ridiculous idea. “I don’t like her for her looks.”

“Then what do you like about her?” Sheng Yiheng stepped closer, growing increasingly frantic. “Her femininity? That deadpan funeral face of hers? Or is it her twisted charm—the whole ‘come here, go away’ seduction game she plays?”

She kept going, breathless, “Okay, maybe I’m not as smart as her. But I’m honest—and loyal. If you dump her and choose me, I’ll do whatever you say. If you tell me to go east, I won’t dare go west. If you tell me to take off my pants, I wouldn’t even dream of putting on clothes…”

Tan Hua raised a hand, cutting her off: “???”

What kind of wild nonsense was that?

She stared wordlessly at Sheng Yiheng—who now looked like a giant golden retriever, full of misplaced loyalty, pitiful hope, and eager anticipation. Tan Hua didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“No. None of that,” Tan Hua shut down every one of Sheng Yiheng’s guesses. “What I like is her financial power.”

Sheng Yiheng: “?” Her what power?

The Alpha immediately turned serious. “Wait… did she try to buy you off with money?”

“Five hundred million—no, six hundred million,” Tan Hua corrected herself. “A full six hundred million. The moment she said it, I swear, she lit up. She started glowing in my eyes. I couldn’t look away. I was completely drawn in—hooked, helpless.”

When Tan Hua admitted she hadn’t agreed to date Lu Huaixu purely out of love, Sheng Yiheng immediately relaxed. She even had the presence of mind to tease her.

“Seriously? Just six hundred million and your heart’s already been bought?”

“You agreed to be her girlfriend for a measly six hundred million?”

“What else was I supposed to do?” Tan Hua shot back, eyes wide. “Six hundred million is a lot, okay? For someone like me, a broke commoner, that’s enough money for six lifetimes of penny-pinching.”

She crossed her arms. “President Lu threw six hundred million at me to win me over. Since you’re so in love with me, how much are you planning to offer?”

“My entire fortune,” Sheng Yiheng replied without missing a beat. “It has to be at least a few trillion.”

She inched closer with a fawning smile. “If you say yes, we can get our marriage certificate tomorrow. If you want to go public, I’ll call a press conference right away, and my PR team will blast the news across every platform—we’ll be officially married to the whole world.”

“I’ll make sure you become my wife openly and proudly. None of that sneaky, under-the-radar stuff like Zheng Jinyu, who was so scared of being found out, she treated her own wedding like a secret operation.” Even now, Sheng Yiheng couldn’t resist throwing shade.

“You can have anything you want. My salary accounts, all my assets, my heart, my whole world—it’s all yours.”

“Everything I own, even the things you can’t find out about, will belong to you. And you’ll instantly become the richest Omega wife in the city.”

“Wherever I rank among the Alphas, you’ll rank right alongside me among the wives.”

Sheng Yiheng’s words were undeniably tempting. Tan Hua stared at her with frustration, raising her head and looking into her eager, hopeful face.

“If you like me this much,” she asked bitterly, “why didn’t you say something earlier?!”

“I was scared,” Sheng Yiheng admitted, nervously fidgeting with her fingers. “What if you rejected me? That would’ve been so embarrassing.”

Tan Hua: “…”

“Well, too bad. You’re a step too late.” Tan Hua clicked her tongue in mock regret. “I already made the deal with Lu Huaixu—just a few minutes ago. She transferred the money.”

She pulled out her phone to show her. “It’s in the contract—once the funds hit my account, the agreement goes into effect.”

Sheng Yiheng stared at the screen, eyes narrowing in concentration as she examined it for a long while. Then, with innocent eyes, she looked up and asked, “Can’t you just cancel it?”

“How much is the cancellation fee? I’ll pay it for you.”

Tan Hua gave her a faint smile. “One billion.”

Sheng Yiheng: “?”

…Never mind.

One billion wasn’t exactly pocket change. Her expression turned tragic as she clutched Tan Hua’s hand with deep sorrow. “Maybe… you should just take the money.”

She sighed. “It’s a huge deal handed to you on a silver platter—why not make the most of it?”

“Besides, I’m not saying I have to be your official partner,” she added. “As long as you still care about me, as long as I’m on your mind, I’m okay being your secret lover behind Lu Huaixu’s back.”

Tan Hua: “???”

“She can have you when she needs you—just pretend to love her. The rest of the time, you’ll be with me…” Sheng Yiheng hadn’t even finished before Tan Hua stomped down hard on her foot.

Tan Hua gave her a cold look. “What am I, a machine? No rest, no breaks—is that it?”

Sheng Yiheng was silent for a moment. “Then what do we do?”

Suddenly her eyes lit up. “How about this—you talk Lu Huaixu into paying another six hundred million to make me her second girlfriend!”

“That way, she still gets a girlfriend, I get to be with you 24/7, and we can have our little secret romance on the side. Isn’t that a win-win-win?”

Tan Hua: “…”

How desperate must Lu Huaixu have been to pay billions just to get herself cheated on?

Delusional. Drama queen. Dangerously sweet: I’m desperate, so I’m about to go feral and take everyone down with me.

President Lu: “Yeah, no thanks. I’m not into funding my own heartbreak.”
