When the White Lotus Alpha Steals the Domineering CEO Script - Chapter 1
As night fell, the panoramic view from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the 18th-floor suite at the Vibe Hotel, located in V City’s famous tourist resort area, offered a breathtaking sight of the surrounding scenery.
In the golden autumn of October, the seasonal maple leaves shimmered under the streetlights, their crimson veins glowing as they intertwined with neatly arranged ornamental chrysanthemums, creating a unique landscape within the hotel grounds. Not far away lay the picturesque Liao Mountain scenic area, embraced by lush green hills and clear waters. Naturally, a seven-star hotel built in such a prime location came with an exorbitant price tag.
Yet, standing in this lavishly acquired suite, Shi Wei Yue, holding a wine glass, felt a chill creeping from head to toe. The tall woman stood frozen by the window, staring at her reflection in the glass, illuminated by the room’s lights.
Her hair was dyed a golden-gray, styled in seemingly effortless, tousled waves. Her makeup, though subtle, was meticulously applied to accentuate her delicate features, a straight, well-defined nose, full at the bridge, and cheeks dusted with a rosy blush that lent her face an innocent, almost ethereal allure, yet with an underlying seductive charm.
The style was identical to hers, but the face was not her own.
When the faint sound of running water drifted from the bathroom, the wine glass slipped from her pale fingers with a soft clink, spilling the last drops onto the carpet and leaving a faint stain.
“Welcome to Fu Shao’s Pursuit: Where Can the Delicate Omega Escape? You are Shi Wei Yue, the domineering female antagonist of this story. Below is a detailed introduction to your identity and mission. Please listen carefully.”
As the system’s voice echoed in her mind, Shi Wei Yue felt as though she had been cursed by misfortune lately. Her head buzzed, but the system paid no heed to her reluctance, relentlessly continuing its explanation.
Gradually, Shi Wei Yue pieced together her current predicament.
This outdated novel reeked of melodrama, the male lead was greasy, the female lead was delicate, and the plot revolved around the classic “he chases, she flees, but there’s no escape” trope, pairing a domineering CEO with a sweet, submissive wife. Even her role as the domineering antagonist was a toxic mix of cruelty, pettiness, and cringe.
Among the obstacles standing in the way of the main couple’s happiness was the story’s most formidable villain, Wen Ruxing, a ruthless and influential Alpha who nearly drove the protagonists to ruin multiple times. Backed by powerful connections, she acted with arrogance and brutality. Only after overcoming her schemes could the main couple finally be together.
And Shi Wei Yue’s role? She was Wen Ruxing’s equally toxic and manipulative Alpha wife.
Their marriage had been arranged out of necessity when Wen Ruxing’s family faced a crisis, with an agreement to stay out of each other’s affairs. But according to the plot, Shi Wei Yue would drug Wen Ruxing, forcing her to participate in a twisted game with the main couple.
Unlike the typical “sky darkens, the Wang family falls” tycoons, the original Shi Wei Yue was a rebellious, deranged little freak, unhinged but ultimately powerless. After this incident, Wen Ruxing would hold a grudge, and her fate would be utterly tragic.
Shi Wei Yue had transmigrated at the exact moment when the original host had set her plan in motion. The main couple was about to attend a party here, Wen Ruxing had already consumed the spiked drink, and after accidentally staining her clothes, she was now showering. By the time she stepped out, the drug would take effect.
The drugs were purchased by the original owner of this body from the black market someone wealthy and influential. Under her arrangements, the male and female leads would be led into this very room. The curtains were left open; this expensive venue was part of her earth-shattering scheme. Neither the leads nor Wen Ruxing were ordinary people. She wanted them plastered across tomorrow’s headlines.
All to satisfy her own bizarre fetish.
Shi Wei Yue shuddered at the plot she’d inherited but quickly steadied herself, aware of the urgency. She asked the system:
“Where are the male and female leads?”
The system replied, “They’ve already arrived at the hotel.”
Drawing on the original owner’s memories, Shi Wei Yue wasted no time. She kicked off her high heels, pushed open the door, and shut it firmly behind her, ensuring no one could enter the room now.
Barefoot, she sprinted down the hallway. Spotting a tall figure emerging from the elevator, she slowed her breathing and casually adjusted her long skirt. Under the dim lighting, the man didn’t notice anything amiss. Clutching an empty wine glass, he brushed past her.
In that split second, Shi Wei Yue swung her fist with practiced force, aiming a precise strike at the back of his head, a move she’d learned from self-defense training.
The man collapsed onto the carpet with a thud. The glass clattered to the floor. There was no time to celebrate her success. Shi Wei Yue dashed into a nearby conference room, where a beautiful woman in a delicate white dress was sipping wine. Panicked, Shi Wei Yue grabbed her wrist.
Under the woman’s startled gaze, Shi Wei Yue snatched the half-full glass from her hand and downed it in one gulp.
Heart pounding from the adrenaline, Shi Wei Yue suppressed her nerves and calmly returned to the room.
Just as she keyed in the code and pushed the door open, the bathroom door swung ajar.
Locking the door behind her, Shi Wei Yue took a few steps forward only to nearly collide with someone. Instinctively, she stepped back, discreetly studying the original owner’s so-called “wife.”
Fresh from the shower, the woman’s damp hair hung in loose strands over her shoulders, a few clinging to her pale jawline. The stark contrast between her raven-black hair and snow-white skin was striking. A choker adorned her neck, still in place even after bathing. Shi Wei Yue’s gaze flickered to its intricate craftsmanship, lingering on the diamond-encrusted letters spelling out a word.
“Nightmare.” Most would consider it an ill-omened word, yet Wen Ruxing wore it boldly around her neck, a testament to the audacious personality described in the original novel.
Her makeup accentuated the sharp allure of her feline eyes, while her lips glistened with a hint of moisture. By now, the drugs administered by the original owner should have taken effect. Yet Wen Ruxing’s demeanor was eerily composed, a stark contrast to her predicament.
Despite her mental preparation, Shi Wei Yue found herself unsettled. Wen Ruxing, moving toward her with deliberate steps, resembled a witch closing in on her prey. The towel draped over her shoulders slipped halfway down, clinging precariously to her elbows, revealing glimpses of flawless skin. The sight sent a jolt of tension through Shi Wei Yue.
This woman radiated danger not the scheming malice of a typical villain, but something far more unsettling, honed by Shi Wei Yue’s keen observational instincts. Even drugged, Wen Ruxing remained unshaken, exuding an almost predatory allure. Could it be?
Her back was against the wall. One more step and Shi Wei Yue would be pressed against it, completely losing control. She had no choice but to stay where she was, taking a deep breath and holding it in.
“Please follow the plot and play the role of the villainous domineering CEO. Humiliate the supporting female character and abandon her on the spot.”
Hearing the system’s prompt, Shi Wei Yue tried to resist:
“No, I can’t do this. It’s illegal. I’m a law-abiding citizen!”
In her original world, she had studied law in university. Fresh out of graduation, she was interning at a law firm, working tirelessly to pass the bar exam. She was intimately familiar with all sorts of legal statutes.
Even if this world was different from her own country, the laws should be roughly the same, right? Forcing someone into a group activity even if the other party was an Alpha was still a heinous crime.
But she forgot that in the world of old-school novels, “the law” often didn’t exist.
The system’s response was brief and merciless:
“Host refusal to complete the task detected. Immediate termination imminent. 3, 2…”
Damn it, this is insane!
With the blade of death hanging over her head, she had no choice. Shi Wei Yue valued her life too much. Before the countdown could finish, she gritted her teeth, grabbed the wrist of the woman in front of her, and under Wen Ruxing’s astonished gaze, swiftly spun her around and pinned her against the wall!
Caught off guard, Wen Ruxing’s head hit the wall with a painful thud, and her gaze turned sharp. Shi Wei Yue, who had never done anything like this before, was so terrified her eyes turned red, her throat tight with tension.
The great villain was now trapped in her arms in an ambiguous position, her slender waist resting against Shi Wei Yue’s arm. Feeling the warmth that wasn’t her own, Shi Wei Yue frantically searched her mind for classic domineering CEO lines. Under immense pressure, she finally recalled one.
So, under that murderous gaze that made her legs weak, Shi Wei Yue forced a smirk. Her slender fingers interlaced with the woman’s, slowly tightening their grip. Her voice strained, she leaned in and whispered in the woman’s ear as if throwing caution to the wind:
“Darling, call me ‘wife,’ and I’ll give you my life.”
Before the words had even fully left her mouth, Wen Ruxing’s murderous gaze unexpectedly softened into something warm and tender. She grabbed Shi Wei Yue by the collar and pulled her down onto the bed.
**
At first, Shi Wei Yue had wanted to refuse.
She didn’t share the original body’s twisted desires, she had no interest in forcing anyone into group activities. All she wanted was to quietly survive. After transmigrating into the novel’s cannon-fodder supporting female character, she knew she couldn’t afford to provoke the male lead, female lead, or the villain. She had already stopped the male and female leads, and to avoid Wen Ruxing’s wrath, she had even drunk the spiked wine herself.
Shi Wei Yue’s original plan was to feign ignorance and pin the blame on someone else. After all, both she and Wen Ruxing were Alphas. In the ABO world, Alpha, Omega, and Beta were the primary genders, and two Alphas generally weren’t attracted to each other.
In other words, she shouldn’t have had any interest in Wen Ruxing.
But the heat creeping up her ears and cheeks, the restless fire stirring in her veins, signaled that things weren’t going as she’d imagined. The relentless, rising warmth made Shi Wei Yue unable to resist touching the back of her neck.
There, unnoticed until now, was a small, round protrusion like a miniature cherry barely noticeable unless carefully felt. Yet this tiny, unassuming gland was now bringing about a cataclysmic change within her.
Shi Wei Yue felt her entire body burning up, every inch of her veins raging with fire. An intangible scent erupted from her gland, flooding the entire room with the rich fragrance of pear blossoms, mingled with faint wisps of clear liquor.
That was the pheromone of an Alpha.
Shi Wei Yue had a basic understanding of the ABO worldview, she knew an Alpha’s pheromones carried an extremely aggressive force, acting as an irresistible lure to Omegas while provoking intense disgust in those of the same gender.
She saw Wen Ruxing’s beautiful face, so close to hers, twist in reaction. Hurriedly, she tried to stand up but had no idea how to suppress her pheromones. In desperation, she pressed her hand hard against her gland.
“Ah!”
In her frantic state, she used too much force. Shi Wei Yue had always been ruthless with herself, and the fragile gland throbbed painfully under her fingers. A strange sensation intertwined with the pain, forcing a muffled groan from her lips.
Amplified by the drug’s effects, tears welled in her eyes. Her breathing grew ragged, her vision and consciousness blurring. She hadn’t realized just how potent the dosage the original host had taken was now she was experiencing it firsthand.
This was practically a death sentence.
Instinctively, Shi Wei Yue glanced toward the door.
Calling an ambulance? She didn’t have time to think she couldn’t find her phone in her current state. Calling for the system? No response. Staggering unsteadily in her daze, she mustered the last of her awareness to grab the remote and close the curtains. Then, she heard Wen Ruxing’s indistinct voice.
It was the first sentence Wen Ruxing had spoken since their meeting. The woman’s voice was cool and detached, but it took Shi Wei Yue two repetitions to finally make out the words:
“Get over here.”
So, Shi Wei Yue stumbled and rolled her way to the bedside.
The moment she drew near, Wen Ruxing’s slender fingers clamped around her wrist. Shi Wei Yue, who had never been intimate with anyone before, was forced to kneel on one knee, meeting the other woman’s striking eyes.
The villainess’s features were striking narrow, upturned cat eyes and crimson lips cast in ambiguous shadows, like a bewitching poppy. Even without catching a whiff of her pheromones, Shi Wei Yue could guess she was the aggressively dominant type.
Rumors said Alphas in this world could bite, and Shi Wei Yue had no intention of getting injured or marked inexplicably right after transmigrating. She struggled with all her might to restrain the Alpha, but her buttons were already being roughly undone. The sudden exposure of her skin to the air made her ears burn crimson.
In her twenty-some years of life, this was the first time she’d experienced something like this. Her fingertips trembled uncontrollably. With a woman with another Alpha, the same gender as her current body, she felt no revulsion. Instead, as her gaze fell on the pale neck hidden in the shadows, her heart began pounding wildly.
In her haze, her fingers were slipped into a rubber sheath. The plastic wrapper was discarded carelessly before Wen Ruxing shoved a pill into her mouth.
What kind of medicine it was, Shi Wei Yue didn’t know. She only knew that after swallowing it, her pheromones no longer ran rampant. But the feverish heat remained, her gland still sealed. Every cell in her surging blood screamed for conquest.
The woman lying on the bed revealed a snow-white, rounded shoulder, bending her leg and propping a pillow beside her as she beckoned with a finger. Shi Wei Yue, as if entranced, moved toward her.
Plump red lips brushed past, giving her an exceedingly lingering kiss. For a long time afterward, Wen Ruxing, the notorious villain, became a patient teacher guiding her step by step.
The night was long, the unyielding ink of darkness obscuring the bright, scattered stars. The wind pushed the clouds, and before long, rain began to patter softly outside the window.
**
Exhausted, Shi Wei Yue slept until the sun was high in the sky the next day before waking.
After a night of rain, sunlight filtered through the curtains, heralding the clear weather outside. When Shi Wei Yue finally stirred, she paused for a moment, her memories flooding back. She felt an emptiness beside her and turned her head to see the figure from last night.
Wen Ruxing, seated at the edge of the bed, no longer carried the alluring demeanor of the previous evening. Calmly, she fastened the top button of her blouse, concealing the marks beneath:
“Let’s pretend last night never happened. Once the contract expires, we’re even.”
Still groggy from the night’s exertions, Shi Wei Yue’s mind was slow to react, but she caught the lifeline in those words. Quickly propping herself up, she offered a sweet, obedient smile:
“Miss Wen, if you’d like, we can end things now.”
Wen Ruxing’s hands paused as she dressed, her back turned so her expression remained hidden. After a moment, a hint of amusement laced her voice, though it carried an inexplicable undercurrent of danger. She turned, her striking face suddenly close, nearly pressing against Shi Wei Yue’s.
The breath that brushed her skin was the same scorching heat from the night before:
“Do you mean what you say?”
