Transmigrated as the Top-Tier Alpha's Secretly Married Ex-Wife - Chapter 25

Chapter 25

No, this is completely wrong.

The original owner was so diligent and enthusiastic toward Mo Xian, yet Mo Xian should have never done anything like this.

If she had, the original owner would have likely written an eight-hundred-word essay to express her feelings.

Sun Qiushuang happened to call out for a game, so Su Tuantuan glanced at Mo Xian, said nothing, and joined the game circle.

The group was drinking fruit wine. Su Tuantuan drank one bottle and wanted to use the restroom, a perfect excuse to leave for a bit. While playing the game, Mo Xian didn’t interact with her much, but Sun Qiushuang kept squeezing her, making her nearly lean into Mo Xian’s arms.

Afraid of Mo Xian’s aversion, she decided to get some fresh air after using the restroom and didn’t want to go back.

Everyone else had a holiday tomorrow, but she still had work to do.

The KTV’s décor was like a dazzling star field, giving her an extra excuse not to return.

She wandered over to a mirror-sphere photo spot and sat on the sphere chair. The mirror on the floor distorted her reflection. She lowered her head, pulled out a cigarette, and as she looked up while putting the cigarette in her mouth, she saw Mo Xian standing right in front of her.

The cigarette in Su Tuantuan’s mouth dropped to the floor.

The original owner should have been a very well-behaved girl who never smoked, right?

She jumped off the chair, picked up the cigarette from the floor, crumbled it, and threw it into the trash can. “Can I help you?”

Her movement was casual. Mo Xian blocked her path, hands in her hoodie pockets, watching her silently. The dim light overhead shone down, making the two of them look like they were about to have a—

Secret rendezvous!?

Su Tuantuan was startled by her own thought.

She clapped the tobacco dust off her hands. “The song you sang tonight was quite beautiful.”

Mo Xian stepped forward, closer to her. “I wrote it for you.”

Su Tuantuan was slightly surprised. She looked up at her. The light suddenly dimmed, making the Mo Xian in front of her feel very unreal.

“Why?”

She leaned back against the mirrored wall. Her reflection in the mirror also leaned back.

Mo Xian didn’t hide it. “I know that you were the one who saved me back then.”

Her voice was low. “I am very sorry and feel guilty. I wrote that song, hoping you would hear it.”

Mo Xian had locked herself away for a week. After careful consideration, she realized she didn’t want to lose Su Tuantuan like this.

It felt like she was driven by some force, but even more so, she was following her own heart.

She didn’t want to lose her this way.

The lyrics were clear enough. With her honest admission, Su Tuantuan understood.

Su Tuantuan laughed. She lit another cigarette, took a drag, then looked up at her, blowing out a smoke ring. Her tone was somewhat mocking. “Have you ever considered that the former Su Tuantuan and the current Su Tuantuan are completely different people?”

Mo Xian didn’t speak. Su Tuantuan felt there was no point in teasing her like this.

If Mo Xian liked the original owner, she couldn’t accept it on her behalf.

If Mo Xian liked her, she couldn’t accept it because of the original owner either.

Her feelings for Mo Xian—

Were, at most, admiration.

All along, there was no real “like” or “dislike.”

It was just that she was swayed by the glamour of her concerts, knowing this woman had impressive skills that could make people utterly captivated, and her body naturally felt arousal for her.

But those were things she couldn’t control.

She intended to stay away from Mo Xian from the start, and that was still her goal now.

So she found it absurd.

If Mo Xian truly liked her, it meant she had changed the original plot.

Then what did that make them?

“Mo Xian, I’m just saying, is it possible that you don’t actually like me, but my demanding a divorce just challenged your competitive spirit? Then, during this process, you realized I wasn’t so bad, and you happened to find out that the former Su Tuantuan saved you—”

Su Tuantuan leaned against the mirror, tilting her head. “Don’t mistake all this for love. If you ignore me, you’ll find many other girls who will genuinely like you.”

Mo Xian seemed a little hurt.

Her eyes were red. She stared intently at Su Tuantuan. Su Tuantuan straightened up. “Don’t cry. Don’t frame me. I didn’t do anything to you—”

Mo Xian took another step closer to her.

Su Tuantuan had nowhere to retreat. Just then, Mo Xian grabbed her hand.

Su Tuantuan was startled. They were too close. Mo Xian lowered her head, her fuzzy head rubbing against Su Tuantuan’s forehead.

A jolt of electricity shot up from her tailbone. Su Tuantuan’s whole body went numb.

Her breathing hitched. The cigarette in her hand burned her finger. She forgot to pinch it out and it fell to the floor.

“I don’t know either.”

Mo Xian’s phoenix eyes were slightly lowered, looking like she was about to cry. “I clearly didn’t like you before, and thinking about it now, I genuinely didn’t like the old you. I wouldn’t like her if I had a thousand or ten thousand chances. But—”

Her hands were slightly cold, tightly gripping one of Su Tuantuan’s hands. “I don’t understand what’s happening to me now. I miss you intensely. I miss you when I don’t see you, and I miss you when I do. Even though you don’t like me as much as before, I want to keep paying attention to you.”

She closed her eyes, tears forming on her lashes. “I know I’m crazy, but I can’t help it. I don’t know why this is happening. If you and the former you weren’t the same person, I might feel a little better, but something so absurd wouldn’t happen in the world, Su Tuantuan.”

She opened her eyes, meeting Su Tuantuan’s gaze, which seemed to hold a vast ocean. “Why is this happening?”

Why is this happening?

Su Tuantuan didn’t know.

She believed that every action she had taken since transmigrating was without any transgression.

She didn’t know how she had managed to attract Mo Xian.

And make her so distressed.

Su Tuantuan met her gaze. “Just listen to me. Go find other girls to like. I’m really not that great. Whether past or present, it’s the same. You—”

Shouldn’t like her.

How could she like her?

She’s just a female supporting character.

Mo Xian’s hand had already let go. Su Tuantuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second, Mo Xian’s hands cupped her face.

Mo Xian’s movements were very gentle, afraid of hurting her, even afraid of smudging her makeup.

“Then why are you avoiding me?”

Mo Xian asked. “Is it because of the things I did before that hurt you? … I’m sorry.”

How was Su Tuantuan supposed to explain?

Explain that she and the original owner were fundamentally different people, and Mo Xian could like anyone but her.

Tell Mo Xian that she was just a character in a novel, and she and Qiao Yanran were the destined pair?

That was too ridiculous.

Tell a darling of heaven that she was just a paper figure, and all her settings and honors were dictated by someone else.

Who could handle that?

“I—”

Su Tuantuan’s vision suddenly went black.

All the lights went out, leaving only the dim light of the sphere behind them.

Mo Xian’s nose touched hers, and her finger gently stroked behind Su Tuantuan’s ear.

She said, “I don’t believe it, Tuantuan. I can clearly feel that you like me too.”

She lowered her head toward her.

Su Tuantuan exploded.

In the next second, a warm, soft touch covered her lips.

Su Tuantuan’s eyes widened. Two seconds later, she saw Mo Xian’s lips pull away, and Mo Xian’s thumb rested on her lip.

Su Tuantuan’s heart hammered wildly.

She was startled and looked at Mo Xian again.

She wasn’t a timid person, but she truly thought Mo Xian was going to kiss her just now, and she felt absolutely no repulsion, but rather some… expectation?

Su Tuantuan knew there was no way she could return to the VIP room now.

Mo Xian’s fingers were gradually growing hot. Although she knew her actions just now were impulsive, her pheromones didn’t stop releasing.

The scent of pine branches burning in winter snow diffused around them.

This was the scent of her pheromones.

Her body was very honest.

But Su Tuantuan—

She had no reaction.

Su Tuantuan’s ears were burning terrifyingly. Leaning against the cold mirrored wall, she was being stimulated by Mo Xian’s pheromones.

But she had been in the training camp recently, and fearing any incident with pheromone dispersion, she had constantly been using suppressants and pheromone delay medications.

This was the first time she knew what it felt like to be exposed to an Alpha’s pheromones.

It caused heat and desire.

She wanted to strangle Mo Xian right now.

The turmoil in her bloodstream made her want her immediately.

If this continued, her pheromones would soon leak out and expose everything.

“So, were you trying to seduce me just now?”

Her voice was low and trembling. The rapid rise in body temperature was uncomfortable.

But she tried her best to restrain herself and pretend to be normal.

Mo Xian was flustered and reached out to hug her. “I’ll take you away.”

Su Tuantuan was so angry she laughed. She slapped away the hand around her waist. “Mo Xian, let me show you what a real kiss is.”

She stood on her tiptoes, grabbed Mo Xian’s hoodie collar, and tilted her head to press her lips against Mo Xian’s.

She bit down hard on Mo Xian’s lip, using significant force. A faint metallic taste of blood spread. Mo Xian let out a small whimper, like a wounded animal, indicating it hurt.

She still feels pain?

Mo Xian’s pheromone scent grew even stronger.

Su Tuantuan’s eyes were hot. Mo Xian was too clumsy; she clearly hadn’t kissed before. Su Tuantuan used the tip of her tongue to pass the scent of smoke and alcohol to Mo Xian. When Mo Xian opened her mouth, intending to respond, Su Tuantuan held onto her last shred of sanity.

She let go of Mo Xian, her smile contemptuous. “See? That’s seduction. You just got a free lesson. Too bad, I truly don’t feel anything for you, sister.”

Su Tuantuan swayed her hips and left.

She didn’t look back at Mo Xian even once.

Mo Xian’s breathing was ragged, her scent gland was swollen. Watching Su Tuantuan walk away so smoothly and nonchalantly, she slowly squatted on the floor, taking several deep breaths until the pervasive pheromones gradually dissipated.

She slowly steadied her breathing. When she felt her body was somewhat recovered and the surrounding scent had completely faded, she finally stood up. Sweat was beading on her forehead, and her heart rate still hadn’t dropped.

Mo Xian returned to the VIP room, but Su Tuantuan was no longer there.

Su Tuantuan went home and lay on the bed, twisting and turning in agony. She furiously inhaled from a bottle of suppressants, but it was useless now.

Overstimulated, she was emitting a concentrated scent of citrus.

Gritting her teeth and clutching her aching lower abdomen, she crawled toward the bedside table.

The painkiller was there.

“Mo Xian, you home-wrecker, you just wait!”

Su Tuantuan ground her teeth. How dare that home-wrecker actively tease her!

How can those damn pheromones have so much power!

Next time, she would stay far away from Mo Xian. Mo Xian wouldn’t be allowed within a ten-mile radius!

It hurts…

Su Tuantuan’s back was soaked with sweat. Only after swallowing two painkillers did the physical desire slowly subside.

She hugged her pillow and fell into a deep sleep, without even having time to change her clothes.

“Damn it…”

Muttering in her sleep, Su Tuantuan lamented, “Why am I not an Alpha…”
