The Scumbag Attackers Regretted It Deeply After My Death - Chapter 15

In the villa study.

Yao Anna walked behind the desk and sat down, placing her phone upright. As she smoothed her hair, a light laugh reached her ears.

“What are you laughing at?”

Yao Anna frowned, looking displeased as she stared at the relaxed, dominant CEO Jiang Nian’an sitting on the armrest of the sofa opposite her.

Jiang Nian’an’s long, straight legs were crossed, and she leaned casually against the side of the sofa, exuding a quiet air of towering poise. The warm sunlight streamed through the window and bathed her, softening the coldness in her beautiful eyes.

The ‘ice queen’ CEO Jiang had a faint smile playing on her lips, a departure from her usual indifference. Her deep, dark eyes were fixed intently on Yao Anna.

Yao Anna felt a chill run down her spine under her gaze. She always felt that Jiang Nian’an was suffering from some kind of major illness. In her previous life, she had been perfectly normal, wearing an ice-cold expression every day, looking like someone owed her a fortune. She ignored everyone, treating them all equally as if they were invisible.

In this life, not only had Jiang Nian’an’s attitude towards her undergone a 180-degree change, but she was also constantly smiling at her, which made Yao Anna deeply uneasy.

Sister, could you please stop smiling at me?

Jiang Nian’an had not found anything particularly special about Yao Anna before. There were plenty of good-looking Omegas, and Yao Anna was just one of them. But ever since Yao Anna woke up from her fever, she seemed like a different person. Whether it was the way she fiercely rebuffed Yao Guangming until he was speechless, or the way she quietly tidied herself up in front of her phone screen.

Jiang Nian’an found it all very novel and extremely interesting.

“If you have a problem with your brain, go see a doctor immediately!”

Yao Anna glared fiercely at Jiang Nian’an. The sight of Jiang Nian’an’s face annoyed her, especially after learning from Pei Congling that Yao Zhenzhen had relied on Jiang Nian’an to secure the lead role in Phoenix Nirvana in the previous life. She disliked Jiang Nian’an even more!

Heh, Scum Alpha and Btch Omega, a match made in heaven!

Noticing the obvious disgust in Yao Anna’s eyes, Jiang Nian’an subtly frowned, and the smile on her lips gradually vanished. She wasn’t oblivious to Yao Anna’s dislike, but she simply couldn’t believe the drastic change in her fiancée’s attitude.

Before, she could still reassure herself that Yao Anna had merely been affected by the fever. Now, she could no longer deceive herself.

“You really hate me?”

Jiang Nian’an’s beautiful eyes were tense. She stood up unhurriedly and walked to the desk. Relying on her height, she looked down at Yao Anna and finally asked the question lingering in her mind.

Yao Anna narrowed her eyes. What was this person trying to do now?

“CEO Jiang, why ask what you already know?”

Facing one of the culprits responsible for her tragic suicide by jumping off a building, Yao Anna couldn’t lie to herself and chose to tell the truth.

Receiving the Omega’s firm answer, Jiang Nian’an’s expression darkened slightly. She propped her hands on the desk, staring intently at her cold-mannered fiancée.

Yao Anna didn’t bother wasting words with her. She repositioned the fallen phone upright, looked at her reflection on the screen, and said lightly, “You’re disrupting my video recording.”

The Alpha maintained that posture in silence for a long time. Just as Yao Anna thought Jiang Nian’an’s next question would be “Why?”, she suddenly said gravely, “Stop pretending.”

Yao Anna looked up in confusion. What was she pretending about?

“You never intended to help Yao Zhenzhen clear her name.”

Meeting Jiang Nian’an’s deep, sharp, black eyes, Yao Anna frowned. She crossed her arms and leaned back. She looked at the Alpha’s confident demeanor and countered with a question, “Why do you say that, CEO Jiang?”

“That lawyer, Shen, I’ve met her. She is Pei Congling’s confidante.”

“Yao Anna, I really didn’t expect you to cooperate with the Yao family’s sworn enemy. What exactly are you planning to do?”

Jiang Nian’an didn’t reach her current position by chance; she fought for it every step of the way. While she was indeed the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family, there were many descendants. She emerged victorious from five candidates to inherit the Jiang Consortium, and in just a few years, she led the Jiang Consortium to establish a true business empire. Did this Omega really think she was a fool, merely using her momentary lapse of reason to throw a smoke bomb and confuse her?

Jiang Nian’an now radiated a powerful aura, and the dangerous atmosphere surrounding her was chillingly coercive.

At this moment, Yao Anna had to admit that Jiang Nian’an was truly formidable. She was actually able to see through the facade to the essence in such a short time…

This Alpha is too dangerous!

Yao Anna frowned tightly. She stared deeply at Jiang Nian’an, about to speak, when Jiang Nian’an suddenly straightened up, glanced down at her, and retracted the imposing pressure surrounding her. “Forget it.”

“Whatever you plan to do, I only advise you on one thing: as long as you don’t go too far, I can turn a blind eye.”

“All you want is the inheritance your mother, Madam Mu, left you. Focus on recording your video, and I will help you get what you want.”

Jiang Nian’an’s eyes held a momentary complexity, then returned to their usual state, her voice carrying a hint of her customary detached coldness.

“Is that so?”

Yao Anna raised an eyebrow. She lifted her phone, pointing it at the Alpha.

When Jiang Nian’an saw her own aggressive look in the video, her eyes narrowed, and her hands hanging by her sides gradually clenched into fists.

She had been careless.

Yao Anna was secretly recording her! And she hadn’t even noticed until now!

Yao Anna remained outwardly calm, but she felt a bit nervous inside. The video on the phone captured Jiang Nian’an questioning her just now. When Jiang Nian’an came over, she had accidentally bumped the upright phone onto the desk. She didn’t know which button was pressed, but the phone had unexpectedly recorded the entire scene of her threatening Yao Anna!

She had only just discovered it herself!

But it was precisely because of this accident that she gained the leverage for a comeback!

Yao Anna hated being threatened the most. Hadn’t they teamed up to threaten her enough in the last life?

And now, again in this life?

Jiang Nian’an reached out to snatch the phone, but Yao Anna reacted quickly, immediately pulling the phone back. She squinted at the Alpha’s increasingly gloomy eyes.

At this moment, Jiang Nian’an deeply regretted having the thought of letting her off just now!

“Yao Anna!”

“Stop shouting. What’s wrong with you, always yelling? I’m not deaf.”

Yao Anna rubbed her ears, looked at her with a disgusted look, and said lightly, “I believe CEO Jiang knows the impact this video will have on you if I post it online. It’s very simple to get me to delete the video: as long as CEO Jiang cooperates with me, I will delete the video, and we can pretend this whole thing never happened. How about that?”

The video also recorded the audio. Jiang Nian’an’s words just now mentioned both her and Pei Congling. Although it sounded like her speculation, the cooperation between her and Pei Congling could indeed not withstand scrutiny. Once the video was exposed, it would affect not only Jiang Nian’an but also her and Pei Congling.

Pei Congling and Jiang Nian’an were both business magnates; while they would be affected, Yao Anna was in the entertainment industry, and the impact on her would definitely be much greater than on the other two. Yao Anna was betting that Jiang Nian’an would agree!

The reason was simple: the Jiang Consortium currently had a major project worth billions of dollars under negotiation, and at this time, the Jiang Consortium did not want any disturbances or rumors!

“Mom, they’ve been inside for almost an hour. Why haven’t they come out yet?”

“Wait a little longer…”

Yao Zhenzhen immediately flared up when she heard this. “Wait for what?! How long has it been? Is the video still not recorded? It looks so bad for them, an Alpha and an Omega, to be alone together… Mom!”

Zheng Xiulan’s elegant brows furrowed. How could she not understand her daughter’s feelings? The first time Yao Zhenzhen saw Jiang Nian’an, she fell in love with the aloof CEO, but in the end, it was Yao Anna and Jiang Nian’an who got engaged. Zheng Xiulan was very clear about how much Yao Zhenzhen liked Jiang Nian’an.

Seeing Yao Zhenzhen about to rush out, Zheng Xiulan quickly grabbed her arm and lowered her voice, “Zhenzhen! You can’t go!”

Yao Zhenzhen stared at the tightly shut door with red eyes. Her patience had been pushed to the limit of tolerance. The feeling of watching the Alpha she loved getting engaged to her own sister was something she had endured for a long, long time. She couldn’t take it anymore!

Tolerate, tolerate, how much longer does she have to tolerate this?

The commotion made by the mother and daughter caught the attention of Yao Guangming and Shen Xi. Yao Guangming subtly frowned. Mindful that Shen Xi was still present, he whispered, “What are you two doing!?”

“Dad! I…”

As soon as Yao Guangming spoke, Yao Zhenzhen’s eyes lit up. She quickly grabbed onto him like a lifesaver and said, “Sister and CEO Jiang have been inside for so long; the video should have been finished ages ago. I was just thinking that since Sister and CEO Jiang haven’t officially held their engagement ceremony yet, maybe it’s not appropriate for an Alpha and an Omega to be alone together? I wanted to go ask Sister if she was done recording, but Mom insisted on holding me back…”

“Yao Zhenzhen!” Zheng Xiulan’s still-attractive face slightly darkened, and she sternly shouted a warning!

Has this girl lost her mind?

Although Yao Guangming had always doted on his daughter, Zheng Xiulan was very clear about his character. Compared to Yao Zhenzhen, Yao Guangming valued the family’s interests and reputation more. He was actually hoping for Yao Anna and Jiang Nian’an’s relationship to progress further. It would be even better if they could have a temporary mark to bind Jiang Nian’an.

Once the Yao and Jiang families were truly joined in marriage, the Yao Clan would replace the Pei Clan as the leader in financial investment in no time!

Sure enough, when Yao Guangming heard this, his expression became a little off. He uncharacteristically squinted and scrutinized Yao Zhenzhen, and an unpleasant thought popped into his head.

Could this girl, Zhenzhen, be trying to steal Jiang Nian’an from her sister?

Otherwise, why was Zhenzhen reacting so strangely to Yao Anna and Jiang Nian’an spending time alone?

Just then, the study door suddenly opened. Everyone looked over. Yao Anna raised an eyebrow and meaningfully glanced at Yao Zhenzhen. Seeing her face look somewhat distressed, she sneered inwardly. Just as Jiang Nian’an emerged from the room with a cold expression, Yao Anna suddenly stepped forward and intimately linked her arm through the Alpha’s.

Jiang Nian’an was momentarily stunned. She looked down at Yao Anna with a gaze that seemed to bore a hole through her!

What kind of trouble is this ancestor cooking up now?
