The Five Heartless Scumbag Alphas Turned Against Each Other Because Of Me - Chapter 94
Sheng Yiheng stopped abruptly at the doorway, her eyes flicking uncertainly between Mu Wanyi and Tan Hua.
Wait—what did she just say?
Did that mean Mu Wanyi wasn’t just some close girlfriend of Tan Hua’s… but actually a kept canary?
Were they not just regular friends, but secretly in a relationship, hiding it right under everyone’s noses all this time?
That was… disturbing.
Hadn’t Tan Hua always liked Alphas?
Why would she suddenly switch to Omega? Or—was Omega her real preference all along, and everything with Alphas, including Sheng Yiheng herself, was just a front for appearances?
Was Tan Hua just pretending to be interested in Alphas to keep her job or maintain a certain image?
Sheng Yiheng felt her brain freeze.
She stood there in a daze, until a group of nurses and doctors rushed past her and forced their way inside. Snapping back to reality, she stepped aside and watched the white-coated professionals gather urgently around the hospital bed. Only then did she react and hurried forward.
“What happened to her?” she asked anxiously.
No one answered.
She turned toward Lu Huaixu and walked over with a furrowed brow, demanding,
“What’s going on?”
Lu Huaixu gave her a flat glance, clearly not in the mood to talk. But in the end, likely because of Sheng Yiheng’s pestering, she responded coldly,
“She secretly went to a small clinic and had her gland removed.”
“Who?” Sheng Yiheng immediately tensed. “Tan Hua?”
“The other one.”
She breathed a sigh of relief—only to feel her frown deepen moments later. Still, she muttered in half-awe,
“That’s… gutsy.”
Removing a gland wasn’t something she’d personally experienced, but she could imagine it wasn’t exactly painless.
And instead of going to a proper hospital, Mu Wanyi had chosen some back-alley clinic with questionable hygiene and no guarantee of safety.
Sheng Yiheng looked at her in disbelief.
“Wasn’t she afraid she’d die on the operating table?”
Lu Huaixu didn’t respond.
Left talking to herself, Sheng Yiheng had no choice but to fall silent and stand nearby, quietly watching with her.
She stared at Mu Wanyi’s pale face, and couldn’t help but think:
No wonder she’s Tan Hua’s friend—she’s got guts.
Forget a gland—just cutting off a small piece of flesh would be painful enough. But glands? They’re connected to nerves throughout the body. That kind of operation must feel worse than death.
Sheng Yiheng found herself wondering:
What kind of pain… what kind of desperation must she have gone through, to push her to that point?
She vaguely remembered hearing that Mu Wanyi was married.
If so, would her husband even agree to this?
Or… had they already divorced?
But that didn’t make sense either. Under the Omega Protection Act, once an Omega is permanently marked by an Alpha, they cannot get divorced—no matter what happens. Not even the end of the world would change that.
Unless… the one who requested the divorce was the Omega.
And in order to make it happen, she had been willing to risk her life to remove her own gland.
Sheng Yiheng’s thoughts spiraled.
Now, when she looked at both Tan Hua and Mu Wanyi, her expression shifted.
If Tan Hua’s friends were this ruthless with themselves… what would happen if she ever backed Tan Hua into a corner?
Would Tan Hua be even more ruthless?
Sheng Yiheng didn’t want to find out.
And honestly, things weren’t bad enough yet to push Tan Hua—or anyone—into something so cruel and irreversible.
The doctor did a quick evaluation of Mu Wanyi, then ordered the nurse to clean and redress the wound on the back of her neck. Tan Hua stood to the side, expression grim as she silently watched every movement.
Only when the nurse had finished dressing the wound did Tan Hua speak up,
“Doctor, how is my friend doing?”
“She’s not in critical condition,” the doctor said briefly. But the medical jargon that followed went straight over Tan Hua’s head.
The doctor seemed to notice, so he cut to the point:
“My advice is to do a full-body examination and have her stay for inpatient observation for a few days.”
“This is not a minor issue.”
“If it’s not properly handled and treated, she could end up with lasting complications—or worse, full-body paralysis, confined to bed for the rest of her life.”
That Tan Hua understood.
She gave a small, calm smile. “Thank you, doctor.”
The doctor nodded, and was just about to ask whether Tan Hua wanted to proceed with admitting Mu Wanyi when Lu Huaixu spoke up from behind:
“In that case, both of you can transfer hospitals together.”
“The ambulance is already downstairs.”
Tan Hua: “?”
Mu Wanyi: “???”
Mu Wanyi turned to look at Tan Hua, her face blank with confusion.
What was that supposed to mean?
But before Tan Hua could explain, the medical team from the new hospital had already arrived. Without giving her a chance to react, the doctors swiftly secured her to a stretcher. In the blink of an eye, both Tan Hua and Mu Wanyi were loaded into the ambulance.
Tan Hua: “…”
Was that really necessary? Did they have to move that fast?
The two Omegas were whisked away in the speeding ambulance, and within seconds, Lu Huaixu and Sheng Yiheng were no longer in sight.
Zheng Jinyu returned just in time to see both women being wheeled out one after the other. She paused, staring for a moment, then turned and asked Lu Huaixu and Sheng Yiheng,
“Why is there another one?”
Sheng Yiheng jumped in to explain enthusiastically,
“The other one is Tan Hua’s friend—Mu Wanyi. Apparently, she snuck off to a small private clinic and had her gland removed. They only just found out.”
Zheng Jinyu: “?”
She went alone? To a back-alley clinic? With no one accompanying her?
Zheng Jinyu didn’t even know whether to call it recklessness or courage.
Removing a gland wasn’t something you could just do casually. The pain was said to be comparable to having your bones broken while fully conscious.
And what reason could she possibly have to go through something like that?
Zheng Jinyu’s mind was full of questions, but with Lu Huaixu and Sheng Yiheng already heading out, she instinctively followed. She asked Sheng Yiheng,
“Are Tan Hua and she… really that close?”
Sheng Yiheng didn’t answer—just gave her a look that said, What do you think?
Zheng Jinyu fell silent, but the thought that followed made her scalp tingle:
If Mu Wanyi was willing to go that far for herself, Tan Hua… could go even further.
So all those things Tan Hua had said before—those threats—weren’t just empty words. She really might be capable of hurting herself.
Zheng Jinyu’s feelings grew heavier. On one side was Cheng Yuan’s cold rejection. On the other, Tan Hua’s unpredictable behavior, which filled her with dread.
She lifted her fingers to rub at her brow, feeling a wave of frustration wash over her.
Two relationships. That’s all she had. And she had failed both of them.
Every part of her private life was a mess. She was like a sinner—hurting one, then the other—until both had turned away from her.
Like she was something they needed to avoid at all costs.
She gave a bitter smile and began to reflect:
Where did I go wrong? Was it falling in love with Cheng Yuan? Or was it the moment I felt guilty toward Tan Hua and tried to make up for it?
Tan Hua and Mu Wanyi lay side by side on separate stretchers in the ambulance, both staring blankly up at the ceiling.
No one spoke.
It was impossible to say how long the drive lasted, but eventually the vehicle came to a halt, and the two were wheeled into the VIP ward of the new hospital.
Lu Huaixu’s cousin, Xu Fengqi, was already waiting inside.
As the two Omegas were brought in one after the other, his brows arched slightly.
“Why is there another one?”
His gaze fell on Mu Wanyi as he asked,
“You’re pregnant too?”
“Too?”
Mu Wanyi’s eyes shot wide open. She forced herself upright despite the pain in her neck, her face pale as snow.
“What do you mean by that?”
Xu Fengqi didn’t answer her right away. Instead, he turned to Tan Hua.
“What’s your relationship with her?”
Her answer would determine whether he would reveal her personal information to Mu Wanyi or not.
Mu Wanyi, though no one had told her anything yet, could already guess most of it based on how the medical staff was treating Tan Hua.
Pushing through the pain, she sat up straighter and exclaimed,
“You’re pregnant?!”
“When did this happen?” she demanded, eyes wide and voice rising.
“Why didn’t you tell me anything?!”
Mu Wanyi’s barrage of rapid-fire questions left Tan Hua no choice but to raise a hand and rub her nose, clearly flustered.
“I just found out,” she muttered, a little sheepishly.
“I didn’t have a chance to tell you yet.”
She waved her hand like it was nothing.
“Come on, it’s not that big of a deal—”
“Not that big of a deal?!”
Mu Wanyi practically exploded, staring at her in disbelief.
“Then what is a big deal? Are you planning to secretly give birth behind my back—then let me know?!”
Tan Hua: “…”
Dr. Xu Fengqi could see that the two Omegas were about to start bickering and tried to intervene—but before he could get a word in, Mu Wanyi fired off another question.
“Whose baby is it?”
“Who marked you?”
“Was it Sheng Yiheng? Or Lu Huaixu?” She shook her head immediately.
“No… that doesn’t make sense. You haven’t known them that long. So the baby probably isn’t theirs.”
“Is it Zheng Jinyu?” Her eyes snapped up to Tan Hua.
“Did she force a mark on you? Then do something else to you after—”
Mu Wanyi abruptly cut herself off, realizing how inappropriate it was to blurt all that out.
Mu Wanyi was sharp—but her guesses were all wrong.
Tan Hua let out a long sigh.
“It’s not Zheng Jinyu. We had an agreement. Nothing happened between us.”
“Then who?”
Mu Wanyi stared at her wide-eyed, as if she were ready to tear the answer out of her.
Tan Hua hesitated for a few seconds, then turned toward Dr. Xu.
“You should ask the doctor.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Mu Wanyi’s head snapped toward Xu Fengqi, her meaning clear as day.
Xu Fengqi: “…?”
Why are you asking me? How would I know?!
He was a skilled doctor, yes—but still just a regular human. He didn’t have X-ray vision or some supernatural ability to divine the DNA of an unborn child.
If he did, would he still be stuck here working under Lu Huaixu?
Xu let out a depressed sigh. He figured he might as well tell Mu Wanyi the truth since the two seemed close—but just as he opened his mouth, Tan Hua suddenly pointed at Mu Wanyi like a tattling child.
“Dr. Xu, my friend secretly went to a shady clinic and cut out her own gland! Please check on her!”
Mu Wanyi: “???”
Xu Fengqi: “???”
Mu Wanyi stared at Tan Hua in utter disbelief.
How could you throw me under the bus like that?!
Not one to be outdone, she immediately pointed back at Tan Hua, matching her tone and posture:
“Dr. Xu, she just risked her life to save someone—drove a Pagani like she was playing bumper cars in the middle of traffic!”
“She’s pregnant, and she pulls something reckless like that? She clearly hasn’t been taking any of your medical advice seriously!”
Xu Fengqi: “???”
He stared at the two Omegas, who had gone from besties to mutual exposers in mere seconds, and could only take a deep breath before angrily slamming the button on his desk.
When the alerted medical team finally arrived, the doctor strode in and pushed open the door.
Xu Fengqi glared at the two clearly mischievous Omegas and said through clenched teeth,
“Take both of them downstairs and run a full-body examination—head to toe.”
The team immediately turned to carry out the order, but Xu Fengqi stopped them with a raised hand.
“Oh, right—” he called out. When the doctor looked back, Xu forced a smile and added pleasantly,
“Also, schedule a surgery for her.”
“Have… whoever handled her gland wound last time clean it up properly this time. I want it thoroughly disinfected.”
The doctor nodded and finally left to make arrangements.
Once everything was set in motion, Xu Fengqi turned his gaze back to the two now visibly guilty Omegas. His smile was bright and exaggerated.
“Meeting the two of you must be my reward from a previous life.”
“No need to feel so honored,” Tan Hua cut in. “Knowing we could bring you such joy—we’re truly grateful.”
Mu Wanyi: “…”
Her skin is as thick as ever.
Xu Fengqi was left speechless by Tan Hua’s shameless reply. He narrowed his eyes and stared directly at her.
“Have you actually thought about whether you want to keep the baby?”
At that, Mu Wanyi looked over, visibly tense.
Being a single mother was no easy path—raising a child alone was difficult enough to crush anyone. But if Sheng Yiheng or Zheng Jinyu were willing to step up as “stepmoms” and help raise the baby, then maybe she’d just keep her concerns to herself.
Truthfully, Tan Hua hadn’t fully decided.
If she terminated the pregnancy, it would damage her health. But keeping it? That might be even more dangerous.
Childbirth came with unpredictable risks—like amniotic fluid embolism, which only happened in one in ten thousand births but had a mortality rate of nearly eighty percent, or the many postnatal complications that could wreck her physically and mentally.
So she couldn’t help calculating:
Could I finish my mission before giving birth, cash in my rewards, and leave this game-like world for good?
Besides the unpredictable Lu Huaixu and the newly arrived Guo Lanyi, the others seemed mostly on track. Progress was nearly complete.
After hesitating for a long while, she gritted her teeth, ready to gamble it all.
Go big or go home, right?
She looked up, her expression resolute.
“I’ve made my decision.”
“I’ll keep it. For now.”
Xu Fengqi: “…What do you mean ‘for now’?”
“I mean that I’ve decided as of now I want her. But whether this child and I are truly fated—whether she makes it in the end or not—that’s up to fate.”
“If it turns out we’re not meant to be, then… there’s nothing I can do.”
Xu Fengqi was speechless.
“…As long as you don’t drive like a lunatic and play bumper cars again, I’d say the odds are in your favor.”
Tan Hua protested, her tone serious and indignant.
“I only did that because I was saving Cheng Yuan’s life!”
Mu Wanyi shrieked, staring at her like she’d lost her mind.
“Why would you save her?!”
Tan Hua blinked.
“She’s still a human being, okay? She was right there in front of me, and the danger was real. I’m the kind of warmhearted person who couldn’t just watch something so tragic happen to a beautiful young woman in front of me.”
Mu Wanyi stared blankly, then said flatly,
“You’re not falling for her, are you?”
Tan Hua widened her eyes in mock offense.
“What are you saying? That wasn’t lust—that was love at first sight.”
But Mu Wanyi wasn’t ready to back down.
“‘Love at first sight’ is just a fancy way of saying you were attracted to her looks,” she said stubbornly. “If Cheng Yuan weren’t pretty, would you still have saved her?”
“Yes,” Tan Hua replied without missing a beat.
She nodded firmly. “Because my purpose in coming to this world is to save her—to pull her out of danger and help her return to the life she was meant to live. She’s not supposed to die in the prime of her life.”
Her voice was so sure, so full of conviction, that Mu Wanyi didn’t even know how to respond.
By the time she was wheeled away by the medical staff, it finally hit her. She sat up suddenly, struggling on the stretcher.
Is Tan Hua crazy?
Cheng Yuan was practically royalty—blessed with beauty, intelligence, power, and the devotion of countless elite Alphas. She needed Tan Hua, a powerless Omega, to save her?
Lu Huaixu, Sheng Yiheng, and hundreds of others would throw themselves into danger for Cheng Yuan without a second thought.
Mu Wanyi clenched her fists. Tan Hua must’ve lost her mind from being pregnant.
She wanted to jump off the bed and march over to yell some sense into her—until the doctor snapped,
“Lie down. Stop moving.”
Instantly, all her defiance disappeared.
“…Okay,” she muttered and lay back down obediently.
Fine. I’ll argue with her later, she thought bitterly.
—
Once Mu Wanyi was taken away, Xu Fengqi turned to Tan Hua and waved.
“Alright, your turn now.”
As if on cue, a nurse entered and led Tan Hua out toward the OB/GYN department.
—
When Lu Huaixu, Sheng Yiheng, and Zheng Jinyu arrived at the hospital, Xu Fengqi was finishing up in his office. Hearing the commotion, he looked up at the three arriving Alphas, gave them a quick glance, and said nonchalantly:
“Wait. The results aren’t out yet.”
The three of them had no choice but to squeeze together on the small office sofa.
Xu Fengqi paused mid-cleaning and looked at them again.
Really? You’re all going to sit there? So where exactly am I supposed to go?
Can’t you wait somewhere else? Sitting in a room with three intimidating Alphas isn’t exactly calming. I’m just a doctor, not a soldier.
—
Meanwhile, Wen Chuan and Ning Xi had been summoned to the police station for questioning.
As soon as Cheng Yuan finished at the hospital, she headed there too.
When she walked into the station, the two of them looked like they wanted to say something but held back. It was clear they were struggling, but in the end, they both chose silence—probably out of fear or guilt.
Cheng Yuan took it all in without letting it show. She noticed everything, but said nothing at the time.
Once the questioning was over and the three of them stepped outside, she finally stopped walking. Folding her arms across her chest, she turned to them with a calm expression and a faint smile.
“Alright. Tell me—what exactly happened between you and Tan Hua these past few days?”
“Which of you wants to start?”
Her eyes slowly swept over Ning Xi, then Wen Chuan.
“You?”
“Or you?”
Both of them froze, instinctively holding their breath. No one dared to speak.
“What, you’ve suddenly gone mute?”
Cheng Yuan raised her eyebrows slightly, her voice calm but clearly laced with warning.
“Fine. Then I’ll speak for you.”
“How does that sound?”
Ning Xi: Someone please explain how my childhood best friend is now mad at me over another Omega?!
Wen Chuan: I’m too young to be caught in this kind of emotional battlefield… [internal panic intensifies]
