When the Possessive Omega Fell for Me - Chapter 36

While the 13th District was tense due to the upcoming leadership change in Jing’an City, with core areas repeatedly strengthening martial law, some areas remained completely detached from the tense atmosphere – such as Jing’an City’s Third District, located on the outskirts, neither coastal nor supported by core industries.

This was truly the bottom-tier development area of Jing’an City. Although it belonged to Jing’an City like the 13th District, its urban construction and commercial development plans lagged far behind.

However,  thanks to this isolation, illegal industries, family powers, and semi-underground gray industries were much more rampant and common in the Third District than in the 13th District.

In the eastern part of the Third District’s central city, inside a new tech company established by a local Third District boss, two young employees peeked through the half-open door towards the vice president’s office, quietly discussing the parachuted-in vice president.

Everyone was quite clear about the real situation of this company. Usually only the boss’s relatives and confidants would come to manage things, and some of their business was not entirely legal. But as long as they kept their mouths shut, they wouldn’t miss out on a penny of what they were supposed to get, so the people below were all very self-aware.

But this newly arrived parachuted leader was clearly different from the others, the kind of different that was obvious at first glance.

That day when the car pulled up downstairs, the calm and capable driver skillfully opened the car door, and the new vice president stepped out. The young woman had a cold and stern demeanor. From her steps getting out of the car to her walking posture and even the way she looked at people was completely different from the bosses they usually saw.

Even though it was all shady business, this person seemed to have more class than the other bosses. Her dress, behavior and manners were very particular, exuding an air of a prestigious family especially since she dared to give the big boss above her the cold shoulder!

As if being arranged as vice president was beneath her.

The two assistants huddled together, quietly studying this parachuted vice president. One of them asked in a low voice, “Hey, do you know what her background is? I don’t remember the chairman having any relatives with the surname Zhao.”

“Are you stupid? How could she be a relative of the chairman? Look at her demeanor, she’s more like the chairman’s grandmother! It feels like her status is even higher than the chairman’s.”

“Huh? There’s someone above the chairman? Then whose relative could she be, surely not the mayor’s?”

The mayor?

Those words must have drifted into the vice president’s office to some extent. The young woman sitting in the office finally turned her head impatiently, her slightly upturned eye corners casting a fierce glance, coldly staring at those two employees:

A bunch of freeloaders in cushy jobs, do you even know the mayor’s surname to dare make such wild guesses?

“Hiss… we’re doomed, doomed, completely doomed…” The two employees were startled and quickly scurried off, muttering anxiously to themselves.

Sitting in the office, Zhao Qin inhaled irritably, turning her head away to avoid seeing and getting annoyed. She barely managed to control her temper.

This damned place didn’t even have a single person of normal intelligence! They didn’t even know to gossip behind the subject’s back, leaving her surrounded by nothing but fools and idiots, without a single competent person she could use.

It was just moving from the 13th District to the 3rd District, how could the level drop so much!

Come to think of it, it was all Yi Jing’s fault. If it weren’t for that person, how could she have been exiled to such a godforsaken place just for taking a fancy to an omega!

Zhao Qin frowned as she recalled what happened at the banquet that day, with the figures of Yu Miao and Yi Jing resurfacing in her mind.

The wound left by that inexplicable gunshot still hadn’t fully healed! That person was clearly aiming to kill her when they fired! If she didn’t have the Zhao surname, she’d be dead by now!

Yi Jing never intended to let her off!

Sitting in the office, Zhao Qin gritted her teeth in anger, her gaze growing increasingly vicious.

She had taken note of this incident and would definitely not let Yi Jing off easily. Now that she was being shunned by her family for making a mistake, it would be difficult for her to return in the short term, but there would definitely be opportunities for revenge.

Yi Jing, the security officer.

Heh, people who stay in the open are always easier to scheme against than those lurking in the shadows. Even a tiny bit of political dirt would be enough to ruin a person.

Corruption, abuse of power, oppression of the people, any one of these would be enough to keep Yi Jing busy for a while.

Oh right, doesn’t Yi Jing really like that omega and pretend to be so pure and clean?

Then she’ll specially send a few omegas to Yi Jing’s bed, let her properly experience some others, so she won’t keep fixating on just that one omega endlessly and not letting go, not even allowing others to touch.

By the way, she could also frame Yi Jing for habitually forcing vulnerable omegas and engaging in regular quid pro quo sexual transactions.

The public loves to believe this kind of thing now. The more disgusting and explosive, the more they’ll believe it. This broken Third District has nothing else, but what it has the most of is girls with no prospects.

As long as she pays enough, there will be people willing to do it. She doesn’t believe Yi Jing can resist the temptation of pheromones. Even if she can resist, so what? She can add some extra ingredients for Yi Jing.

Being in the Easy family’s sphere of influence, everyone is bound by social obligations. Even Yi Jing is no exception.

She just needs to find the right time and the right person to set up the situation. She doesn’t even need to show up herself to make it happen. There’s no need to worry that Yi Jing won’t come.

“Hehe…” As Zhao Qin thought about it, she started to laugh, her eyes narrowing slightly, revealing a hint of shameless cunning.

I heard that idiot Xu Zaixi’s new spot in the 13th District was raided recently. Yi Jing will probably be busy with that for a while. It’s not too late to arrange to meet Yi Jing in a couple of days.

She needs to think carefully about who exactly to get to set up this situation. Hmm, and she needs to choose the omegas well too.

Unattractive ones won’t do, and those without an explosive background are even worse. She absolutely must take good photos and videos to gather evidence and blackmail material, to make her dear cousin famous in a big way.

With a cold smile, Zhao Qin stood up and left the office.

“Ms. Zhao, where are you going?” asked a project manager doubling as the vice president’s assistant who was sitting in the same floor’s office area. He stood up with a puzzled look, still not quite grasping the situation.

Zhao Qin felt annoyed just looking at these people. She didn’t bother hiding it and replied rudely, “None of your business.”

“Oh…” The honest worker meekly shrank back and said nothing more.

Man, the new boss sure has a bad temper.

Zhao Qin walked straight to the stairwell and impatiently jabbed the elevator button. She always felt the people in the company were a hindrance – they couldn’t do their jobs well, and talking too much risked leaking information. They were a huge pain.

She really lacked capable people around her. She’d have to arrange to bring a couple more people over from the family when she had the chance, Zhao Qin thought as she looked at her reflection in the elevator wall.

As for now, the person in the reflection smiled slyly and maliciously, swinging the handbag in her hand and folding her arms.

She was going to find some useful omegas now.

Since being exiled to the Third District, Zhao Qin’s credit card limit had been cut in half, and she was left with only one car, parked in the same spot every day. She was sick of driving it but couldn’t change it.

Zhao Qin thought about this with some disgust as she flipped through her terminal and took out her car keys to open the door and get in. She pondered that when Old Man Yi wasn’t so angry anymore, she would definitely arrange to bring over more capable people from the family and get a few new cars to drive.

Full of fantasies about the future, Zhao Qin completely failed to notice that the car’s onboard computer on the center console flashed a red error message for a split second before disappearing. If one wasn’t staring intently at the console, it would have been impossible to notice.

And Zhao Qin just happened not to pay attention.

The elegantly designed black business car soon drove out of the underground garage. The privately modified rainbow lights flashed briefly on the wheels, quickly propelling the car into a blur as it shot onto the special lane.

Zhao Qin casually grabbed the specially configured car sunglasses from the side console and put them on. The view in front of her immediately became clearer.

The sunglasses completely filtered out excess information ahead, perfectly helping the naked eye adapt to the ultra-high speed. A light green road condition map rose up in front of the car window as the vehicle’s AI system began to assist with driving.

Meanwhile, in a underground hacker’s computer screen in the distant Fifth District, a geeky girl with big headphones, messy hair, and a bucket of instant food in front of her swiveled in her chair to another screen behind her. She looked for two seconds, poked the communicator next to her, and sent a message: [Hey, the person you’re watching is on the move again]

The reply came quickly: [Location.]

The hacker girl typed on the keyboard for a few moments. A route quickly planned by AI appeared on the computer screen, which she then forwarded to the person on the other end.

The message soon replied: [Black Swan Club? What kind of place is that? What is she going there to do?]

The hacker girl twirled the lollipop in her mouth. She was about to reply “How would I know? Take the info or leave it, hurry up and pay,” when the next second she saw a “In Communication” prompt light up on the computer screen.

The hacker girl thought for a moment and sent a voice message to the other side: “Hey, looks like she’s making a phone call. Want to listen?”

The other side: [Let’s listen.]

The hacker girl rolled her eyes and her fingers flew over the keyboard, quickly establishing a temporary eavesdropping channel and building an encrypted connection between her own terminal and the other party’s.

After a brief burst of static, Zhao Qin’s voice came through indistinctly:

“Yes, tonight.”

“Heh, just bring out the best goods you have. That’s right, if you don’t have any then go find some outside. You must meet my conditions no matter what.”

“What? For my own use? Why would I care about family background if it was for my own use? I’m getting them to ‘give to someone else’.”

As the conversation between Zhao Qin and the club manager flowed through the eavesdropping channel, the young man in contact with the hacker girl hesitated for a moment before saying quietly, “Is she planning to harm other girls, How many people are in the car?”

The hacker girl bit her lollipop and fiddled with the mouse, lazily replying, “One. Only one person in the car, in the driver’s seat. No load in front or back.”

“Looks like she doesn’t want anyone else to know what she’s about to do. This is a good opportunity,” said the young man. “Modify her route, change it to about 200 meters left error on the cross-city highway. Find a way to intercept her on the river.”

“Roger that,” the hacker girl’s fingers flew across the keyboard, leaving a final message:

“Remember to add extra payment.”

Nearly a thousand miles away, the AI system on Zhao Qin’s car received instructions and quietly modified the route forward.

Unaware that her car had been secretly tampered with, Zhao Qin hung up the phone and privately gloated as she reviewed her plan for a while. After indulging in some smug daydreaming, she then called another close aunt, hoping she could help arrange to invite Yi Jing out.

At this point, she could hardly summon others either. Her formerly close friends and elders would probably make her behave and not cause trouble out of respect for Old Man Yi. To make this happen, she still needed to ask her aunt for help to invite Yi Jing out under the pretext of apologizing and being obedient.

After much wheedling and coaxing, the Zhao family head on the other end of the phone reluctantly agreed.

Hanging up the phone, Zhao Qin hummed a tune in a good mood as she pondered her plan, absentmindedly looking at the road conditions map and tapping her fingers on the handle.

As long as she could get Yi Jing to come out, the rest wouldn’t be difficult. If Yi Jing dared to show up, she could get people sent to Yi Jing’s room. If one wasn’t enough, she had second, third, and fourth backups. There were all sorts of tricks she could play. Since that security officer was usually so proper and didn’t want to touch anyone, she probably hadn’t seen much of anything, right?

Then it was time to give that overly proper high official a little shock.

Estimating it would take another three or two minutes to reach the Black Swan Club, which had been specially recommended by a friend when she first arrived in the Third District. It was high-end and reliable, one of the few places in this unfortunate Third District that had some efficiency in getting things done.

For the Black Swan Club, finding people with clean backgrounds but easily exploitable identities was a piece of cake. She would have to choose carefully in a moment.

Zhao Qin narrowed her eyes and smiled lightly. Before the thought in her mind could fully form, the car suddenly changed direction under the control of the onboard AI.

The scene in front of her suddenly opened up. Zhao Qin’s smile froze as she suddenly realized something was wrong.

This seemed to be, the small road near the cross-river bridge to the neighboring city?

No! The car was out of control!!!

Although the route displayed on the road condition map was still correct, the car’s actual route had clearly gone out of control beyond the road boundary!

Zhao Qin urgently operated the center console, trying to wrest back control of the car from the malfunctioning AI – but it was too late.

Under the pull of inertia, the high-speed car rushed down the steepest part of the entire riverside section, plunging straight into the shallow beach rock pile by the river.

More than ten minutes later, a huge explosion and flames suddenly rose up, with the car’s metal frame and remaining glass shards flying high. At that very moment, the sky eye surveillance system responsible for monitoring basic security in this area, controlled separately by different district governments, flickered slightly and failed to capture the anomaly by the river.

An explosion returned to silence. The person who had crawled halfway out of the driver’s compartment fell into a deep coma under the secondary damage of the explosion.

In the core district far from the Third District, all remained busy as usual.

Those elites still exchanged false smiles as they vied for power over the general election, job transfers, and future business plans. There were endless documents to review every day.

But the Zhao family’s old mansion was still quite peaceful. Compared to Zhao Laoye who had to attend a banquet at the Yi family and preside over the Yi family manor during this time, Zhao Qingru’s days were still manageable – just reviewing some documents, making some routine decisions, and keeping everyone around her in line.

Oh right, and occasionally having to manage the family’s troublesome younger generation.

Thinking of Zhao Qin who had just called her, Zhao Qingru sighed with a bit of a headache and got up to pour herself a cup of coffee.

These kids nowadays were more troublesome than the last. If that wasn’t her own brother’s child, she would have stopped caring long ago.

The next second, her usually steady subordinate suddenly rushed in from outside the door, holding a terminal display and stammering: “Family Head, it’s, it’s bad news.”

“What’s got you in such a panic?” Zhao Qingru frowned and asked.

“Young Miss Qin, it seems Young Miss Qin has gotten into trouble.”

The subordinate handed the display to Zhao Qingru with a pale face. A 2D map of the Third District riverbank was laid out on the screen, with a red dot representing “life in danger” flashing continuously and radiating three circles of light like water ripples.

This meant that what happened to Zhao Qin was already critical enough to trigger the positioning alarm device the Zhao family had placed on her, and the positioning alarm device had already injected the final adrenaline and auxiliary drugs into Zhao Qin’s body, but still could not save Zhao Qin’s condition.

The coffee cup fell to the ground with a “bang” and shattered into several pieces. Zhao Qingru’s angry voice rang out:

“Arrange people to go find her immediately!!!”

Compared to the crime scene in the Third District, in the Yi family manor closer to the Zhao family’s old residence, Yu Miao and Yi Jing’s rooms were each quiet, except Yi Jing was still lounging on the bed in Yu Miao’s bedroom.

It happened to be the weekend today. Yi Jing, who was usually extremely busy, was now cuddling Yu Miao’s waist from behind as they slept.

Yu Miao had her back to Yi Jing as she scrolled through messages on her terminal, allowing Yi Jing’s arms to wrap around her waist and her breath to fall on her neck.

Ever since that time Yi Jing slept here with her, it was as if Yi Jing had found her way and would quietly sneak into her room from time to time. Occasionally she would even secretly climb into her bed to be affectionate. Even if they didn’t do that kind of thing, she would want to cuddle.

It was quite cute actually.

Yu Miao, who usually found it annoying when others got close, indulged the clingy little alpha. She enjoyed this rare peace while handling messages received on her terminal. As she was organizing files in her inbox, a new encrypted message alert suddenly popped up.

Yu Miao was startled. She looked back to check Yi Jing’s state behind her, confirming that Yi Jing hadn’t been woken up before opening the message.

Q: [It’s been taken care of]

Yu Miao’s movements paused, her previously relaxed and happy expression cooling slightly.

This was her accomplice in the Third District, no, her companion.

It was an underground organization with a very special nature and purpose of existence, with a tight structure and extremely deep concealment. Its sole goal was to bypass official forces and judicial procedures to expose the ugly deeds of the privileged class monopolizing resources, exploiting and oppressing the people, and routinely evading judicial sanctions.

Yu Miao had once doubted the motives of the members in this organization, until she came into deeper contact with some of them.

Everyone in this organization seemed to be hiding some unspeakable hatred. Silent reticence, profound wariness and heavy sorrow seemed to be common traits of most people.

Their biggest characteristic was that they believed what they were doing was absolutely right, so they were far more fanatical in their actions than some official power institutions and also more efficient.

But that was all in her past life. Yu Miao had known about the existence of this organization long before she entered the Yi family.

After too many events and too much time had passed, Yu Miao had almost forgotten about their existence at first.

When she initially made contact, she hadn’t even broken with Rizhong yet and was still that sharp-edged reporter. The underground organization felt that what she was doing was very meaningful, and her character, personality and behavioral motivations fully met their organization’s requirements, so they had been trying to rope in this “companion”.

However, at that time Yu Miao believed she could do everything on her own and didn’t really believe in the rationality of this organization’s existence. She always felt that if an organization came to believe it fully represented justice because of the success of some of its actions that were above the law, such an organization would most likely eventually develop into an anti-social cult.

But her arrogance ultimately ended in failure.

Two years later, she entered the Yi family through this organization because she was unwilling to let go of lost report materials. But the Yi family’s situation turned out to be far more complex than she had imagined, causing her to cut off contact with the vast majority of people in the outside world. Shortly after that, she completely lost contact with this organization, falling into a predicament of being all alone.

Calculating the timing, the point when she was reborn was just before she was about to lose contact with this organization.

Originally, according to the established timeline of events, everything would repeat itself, and she would still be troubled by these people related to the Yi family.

In fact, she had almost forgotten about the existence of this organization, and had thought about giving up everything else and perishing together with everyone at the very beginning.

As long as the Yi family members all died, her revenge would be considered complete. As for other things, she really didn’t have the energy to consider them. She was too tired, and even her heart full of hatred was almost too much to bear.

Until Yi Jing appeared.
