The Mad Beauty and the Sick Young Lady [Transmigration Novel] - Chapter 8
Su Li came out of the restroom to find the entire scene had been sorted out. Ying Feiyan had likely used her “money power” to settle things with the two boys and the staff.
Su Li didn’t want to talk to her, so she pulled Guan Jingxian and turned to leave. Ying Feiyan followed, sticking close to Su Li and trying to grab her hand:
“Lili, if you want to go to a bar, I’ll take you to a good place.”
Su Li felt a slight flicker of hesitation and paused her steps.
Guan Jingxian immediately yanked Su Li’s arm to move forward, saying with certainty:
“What good place? We’re going home! Don’t pay attention to that jerk!”
Ying Feiyan said to Guan Jingxian:
“Miss Guan, let my fiancée come with me. Otherwise, I’m not sure what I might say to Su Li’s parents.”
The threat was practically naked. Guan Jingxian’s eyes widened, and she turned back to look at her:
“Are you threatening me? How dare you?”
Ying Feiyan stepped forward and placed her hand on Su Li’s shoulder:
“It’s not a threat… I just want to be alone with my fiancée for a while to talk about private things.”
Su Li didn’t want to make things difficult for Guan Jingxian, so she boldly reached out and slapped Ying Feiyan’s hand away:
“I can go with you, but I have to bring Guanguan!”
Ying Feiyan thought about it for a moment and agreed.
Su Li and Guan Jingxian got into the car driven by Guan’s family driver, while Ying Feiyan drove ahead to lead the way. They arrived at a magnificent club.
The club’s courtyard had rockeries, small bridges, flowing water, and green bamboo, creating a secluded and elegant environment. The people coming and going inside were all wealthy and distinguished. No one paid extra attention to Su Li, which made her feel at ease.
Besides, no matter what, Ying Feiyan was someone she had liked for so many years. Maybe a little manipulative, but surely not capable of doing anything truly outrageous.
Su Li looked at Ying Feiyan. Although she found the other person greasy and ordinary now, she had to admit she still had a certain ‘youth filter’ for her and truly didn’t want to think the worst of her.
The group entered a luxurious private room. Ying Feiyan was clearly a regular customer here. The waiter was extremely attentive, taking orders and bringing fruit plates with exceptional thoughtfulness.
Su Li sat in the corner of the sofa, gripping Guan Jingxian’s arm. Guan Jingxian vigilantly stared at Ying Feiyan, shielding Su Li behind her.
“Lili, the matter between the two of us shouldn’t involve outsiders…”
“Guanguan is not an outsider. Say whatever you need to say. Anyway, there’s nothing I need to hide from Guanguan.”
Su Li interrupted her, speaking with what she intended to be a strong tone. Unfortunately, due to her poor health, her voice always carried a certain frailty, making her sound less forceful than she’d hoped.
Ying Feiyan sighed, pushed the fruit plate toward Su Li, stood up, turned on the karaoke system, and started a song.
“Do you still remember this song?”
Ying Feiyan didn’t sing but let the original track play, then turned her head to ask Su Li.
Of course, Su Li remembered, but she chose to shake her head and spoke:
“If you have something to say, just be direct. Don’t play these games. I’ve lost interest in our past.”
Ying Feiyan smiled faintly:
“Why exactly… Even if you want to break up and cancel the engagement, you haven’t given me any reason. How can I feel at ease? If something happens to you without me to take care of you, how heartbroken will I be?”
Su Li recalled the novel where she was lying in a hospital bed with a ventilator while Ying Feiyan and Jiang Zhuoye were having sex in a luxurious penthouse… She didn’t see much heartbreak, nor did she see where Ying Feiyan had ever taken care of her.
She smiled politely:
“I’ve already given the reason. I don’t love you anymore, and of course, I don’t want to marry you.”
Ying Feiyan stared into Su Li’s eyes:
“Is it really that simple?”
Su Li nodded:
“That simple.”
Just then, the waiter brought in the wine several bottles of red wine valued at over a hundred thousand, elegantly placed in an ice bucket, then poured into a decanter.
The beautiful red liquid clung to the glass wall, like tears, dripping down one by one.
Ying Feiyan picked up a glass of red wine, drank a large gulp, and suddenly laughed:
“Lili, have you hooked up with someone else?”
Su Li’s heart pounded, and her eyes widened:
“Why would you think that of me?”
Ying Feiyan tapped the glass with her finger. She had thick eyebrows and downturned eyes, which always gave her a slightly melancholy look, a feature Su Li had once been completely infatuated with.
She looked at Su Li with that melancholy expression and asked softly:
“Was your late-night outing with Jiang Zhuoye to meet a lover? If I hadn’t happened to pass by the bar and run into you this time, would you have been waiting for a lover then too?”
Su Li was completely shocked. It took her a moment to realize that Ying Feiyan was likely projecting her ‘scumbag’ mentality onto herself.
Ying Feiyan was prone to cheating, so naturally, she thought everyone else was the same!
Upon realizing this, a wave of anger rushed to her head:
“What nonsense are you talking about!”
She slammed her hand on the sofa armrest. Using too much force, she burst into a violent cough.
Guan Jingxian quickly patted Su Li’s back gently:
“Don’t get angry, don’t hurt yourself. What this person is saying is rubbish; don’t listen.”
Ying Feiyan, however, let out a miserable laugh:
“Haha… Could it be, Miss Guan here? A high grade Alpha, hiding behind the title of ‘best friend,’ finally made her move right before our wedding?”
Guan Jingxian stopped patting her back. With lightning speed, she grabbed a crystal wine glass from the table and threw it at Ying Feiyan!
Ying Feiyan simply raised a hand and caught the wine glass steadily, then just as steadily placed it back on the table, her expression mocking:
“There’s a big difference between high grade and top-tier. Don’t you understand that, Lili? If you choose Miss Guan, I think you’ve settled for less.”
Su Li finally managed to stop coughing. Hearing those words, her face flushed with anger as she looked up, pointing at Ying Feiyan and yelling:
“You’re talking nonsense! You, you shut up! I, I have never, never loved anyone else!”
Ying Feiyan’s eyes lit up slightly. She stood up and grabbed the hand Su Li was pointing at her:
“So, that means you still love me, right?”
Su Li felt dizzy.
She stared at Ying Feiyan, suddenly feeling a sense of delusion. After a long moment, she realized that Ying Feiyan had released her pheromones.
The pheromones of a top-tier Alpha, once fully released, were nothing short of a disaster!
Within hundreds or even thousands of meters, all Alphas would feel an irresistible urge to submit, and all Omegas would be affected, going into premature heat!
Su Li was very familiar with Ying Feiyan’s pheromones. Although the two hadn’t had intimate contact before, they had exchanged pheromones during dates a tentative form of seduction and intimacy.
However, during those dates, Ying Feiyan consciously controlled herself, releasing only a tiny bit of pheromones. Now, for some unknown reason, she was full-throttle, releasing her pheromones completely unrestrained!
Su Li, facing this impact directly, felt her head spinning, unable to speak, and began to cough violently.
She reached for her bag, trying to find an inhibitor patch inside. This was a high end daily item for Omegas, which could suppress an Omega’s heat, though it was certainly not as effective as an injection.
But before her hand could reach it, she was tightly gripped by Ying Feiyan.
Ying Feiyan, whose body was radiating sea salt-scented pheromones, had bloodshot eyes, with a flame seemingly burning in their depths.
She gritted her teeth, her fingers tightly clamping down on Su Li’s arm, saying word by word:
“If I mark you right here, right now, then you won’t run away from the wedding, will you? We can be a happy couple…”
Su Li was already feeling an uncontrollable urge surge through her body like a wave. She started to lose consciousness, her vision blurring, making a “gasping” sound as if someone was choking her.
She struggled to turn her head and saw Guan Jingxian fighting her instincts, forcing herself to walk toward them.
But Guan Jingxian’s movements were as if she was walking against a Category 5 typhoon. Her expression was painful and fearful. Every step took several seconds, making her completely unable to provide immediate help!
Is there no hope…? Am I going to lose my first time… here… No, I can’t…
While fiercely resisting the relentless surge of instinctual desire within her body, Su Li tried to break free from Ying Feiyan’s grasp, but she couldn’t do either!
In the storm of heat that swept through her body, she gritted her teeth and reached for her phone, which was on the table beside her.
At this moment, who could she ask for help… Who…?
Ying Feiyan was already showing a satisfied and dreamy smile, her gaze constantly moving to Su Li’s nape:
“Don’t worry, this room is sound and scent-proofed… Even my pheromones would have a hard time spreading out. No one will know what happened here… Lili, you were always my fiancée, just give yourself to me…”
Her voice grew hoarse toward the end, like a beast controlled by lust, gradually losing the ability to speak, only knowing how to get closer to her target.
She roughly shook her arm, pulling Su Li’s body into her embrace, completely ignoring Su Li’s cry of pain.
“Ah! You’re hurting me!”
Su Li cried out for help. When she waved her other hand, she touched her phone and quickly picked it up, only to have it slapped away by Ying Feiyan.
“You… let go of me…”
Su Li gradually lost strength, her voice rising, her cheeks red, and her eyes moist with tears.
A thick scent of oranges began to rise in the room.
This was Su Li’s pheromone scent, one that, in Su Li’s memory, had only been released less than ten times.
She was habitually using inhibitors regularly. Now, suddenly smelling her own scent, it felt almost unfamiliar.
The music from the karaoke system continued to play a lingering love song, the melody beautiful, flowing through the private room.
Her phone lay on the ground. Guan Jingxian was still ten steps away. Su Li was held tightly in Ying Feiyan’s embrace. The latter was pressing the back of her head down, desperately saying:
“Don’t move, darling. Show me your neck. Let me bite you. It won’t hurt, I promise…”
