A Snake Transmigrated as a Scum A (GL) - Chapter 3
With a bang!
Fu Man slammed the bedroom door shut and walked straight towards Li Yingxue, who had just returned from work.
“Did you do it?”
Li Yingxue raised her eyes slightly, opening her eyes slightly, staring at the woman in front of her without blinking. Her beautiful jade-like eyes revealed a hint of unsurprise.
“So what if I did?”
“I warned you.”
Li Yingxue didn’t shy away from admitting that it was her, but the next second, her wrist was grabbed.
The force grew tighter, as if she wanted to crush her wrist.
However, Li Yingxue didn’t even frown and just stared coldly at Fu Man.
“Did they all die? My condolences.”
She said coldly.
“Do you know who you’re talking to?”
Seeing her attitude, Fu Man’s anger flared up again. She lowered her voice and her eyes gradually looked like she was looking at a dead person.
Li Yingxue smiled instead, raising her chin, “Does it matter who you are?”
Seeing her even more provocative, Fu Man’s killing intent grew, and the surrounding air moved without wind, causing their clothes to rustle.
Li Yingxue still looked at her fearlessly.
Fu Man’s face was like frost, and the hand behind her back gradually condensed a ball of energy. Just as she was about to make a move, a random memory fragment flashed through her mind.
In the fragment, there was a cage with three sides of railings and a white wall.
Under the white wall, a naked woman cowered. Five or six brightly colored venomous snakes were climbing onto her.
The woman had disheveled black hair and her expression was unclear, only a pair of jade-like eyes were filled with fear.
The fragment flashed by quickly, and Fu Man didn’t even have time to capture whose it was, she only remembered those eyes.
An inexplicable emotion surged in her chest, calming her down.
She looked at the arrogant Li Yingxue in front of her with a complex expression.
The magic she had condensed in her hand dissipated inexplicably. As soon as it dissipated, she heard Li Yingxue’s low chuckle, venting her mockery thoroughly.
Hearing her sneer, Fu Man became angry again and shouted at her, “Get out!”
Although she didn’t know what those fragments were, it didn’t prevent her from realizing that she had poisoned all her beloved pets.
How dare she!
Fu Man violently shook off her wrist and glared at the beautiful human in front of her.
Li Yingxue still had the same indifferent expression, and without a word, she turned and left the mountain villa.
As the sound of the Bentley car faded away, A Ci came to Fu Man, “Your Highness, what happened to you just now?”
Why did she suddenly stop?
This wasn’t like her.
She thought the Empress would give Miss Li a good lesson, after all, she had personally killed their kind.
Fu Man was still angry and glanced at her, “I seem to have gained a new memory.”
A Ci exclaimed, “What kind of memory? Is it from the original owner? How did you suddenly get an extra memory?”
Fu Man shook her head, she didn’t know whose memory it was either.
She didn’t know whose perspective it was either. If it was the original owner’s, it didn’t make sense, because the original owner didn’t know Li Yingxue, so how could she suddenly have such a memory.
A Ci was even more confused, “Whose is it? How could someone else’s memory suddenly appear in Your Highness?”
As soon as Fu Man thought of those eyes, she would associate them with Li Yingxue, and as soon as she thought of Li Yingxue, she would think of her beloved pets that had been tragically killed, hanging lifelessly on the branches.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
“Why ask so much? Just go and take care of them.”
“Fine,” A Ci had to give in.
With all her beloved pets dead, Fu Man wasn’t in a good mood.
Moreover, she had planned to feed them with the hot spring water, hoping that one day they could transform into human form.
This plan had died before it even started.
What was even more upsetting was that the day after Li Yingxue left, their underground palace construction plan was halted.
“…….”
A Ci received a message from Lord Fu and relayed it to Fu Man, “Your Highness, Lord Fu wants you to coax her back.”
Fu Man snorted in disdain, “Do you think I can do that?”
She, a Empress among snakes, was actually going to coax a human?
A Ci: “…”
Seeing Empress Fu Man walking towards the hot spring cave, about to cast a spell, A Ci hurried forward to stop her.
“Your Highness, stop. You’re using so much spiritual energy just to build an underground palace, it’s not worth it!”
Moreover, they were still losing spiritual energy continuously.
It was unknown how long they could maintain their human form. What if they used it up, and then one day in the future, they would run out of spiritual energy at a critical moment? Wouldn’t that be a disaster?
“Let go.”
“I won’t! Your Highness, although you have thousands of years of cultivation, we don’t know the calculation method for the loss of spiritual energy. What if it’s only enough for us to maintain our human form for ten or eight years, then won’t we be just ordinary snakes in this world in the future?”
Fu Man said, “Impossible. Once the spiritual hot spring is excavated, I can cultivate.”
Then it won’t be a one-way loss.
A Ci was dragged along, closing her eyes and shouting loudly, “What if we can’t cultivate even after it’s built?”
As soon as she said this, the hot spring cave became silent.
“Do you want me to succumb to this measly amount of money?”
Fu Man couldn’t believe it.
She, a Empress among snakes, would one day actually succumb to money.
A Ci whispered, “It’s still several million…”
“…….”
Seeing the Empress leave the hot spring cave without saying a word, A Ci followed behind her and advised earnestly, “It’s just coaxing someone, Your Highness, isn’t this your specialty?”
“Besides, we don’t know how to do business, or else we could earn our own money.”
A Ci reminded her subtly.
They had also tried to use magic to do some sneaky things, but it seemed to go against the laws of nature, and they lost spiritual energy even faster.
She was afraid that the loss of spiritual energy from earning these few million would be greater than directly using magic to build the underground palace.
Returning from the hot spring cave, Fu Man walked into the study and slowly sat down on a pitch-black leather high-backed chair, crossed her legs, and rubbed her chin with her index finger and thumb, her high heels dangling in the air.
“I don’t have any experience coaxing people.”
A Ci said, “It doesn’t matter, Your Highness, just treat her as an ordinary snake.”
The way she said that…
Fu Man glanced at the snake ring on her hand.
“…She’s not a beautiful snake.”
“And she killed so many snakes yesterday.”
She’s supposed to coax her? Does that make sense?
A Ci tried to reassure her, “It’s okay, they’ll have a spirit in heaven. They will definitely understand the Empress’s great cause and will not blame the Empress.”
A Ci suddenly thought of something, “I heard that Alphas in this world are very strange creatures.”
Fu Man gave her a reluctant glance, “How strange?”
A Ci explained, “Beautiful and weak Omegas have a fatal attraction to Alphas. In this situation, an Alpha will naturally develop an infinite desire to protect, possess, and plunder beautiful and weak Omegas from birth. Even to attract the other’s attention, an Alpha will unconsciously perform courtship-like behaviors. So, it’s very normal for an Alpha to coax an Omega.”
Fu Man flashed a beautiful and aloof face in her mind and sneered, “Bullshit.”
She, the Empress of snakes, how could she be restricted by such an absurd setting?
Fu Man still had the same indifferent attitude, “There’s no way I’m going to coax her.”
Miss Li was an actress. At a young age, she had several works that were popular with the public. Just last week, she had won the Best Actress award.
However, many people still believed that she was just a vase, with no acting skills at all, and that she had only gotten where she was by relying on her face.
There were even haters who claimed that Li Yingxue’s Best Actress title was bought for her by her wealthy backer, and that it was completely water, with no real value.
Fans and haters were at each other’s throats.
In an independent dressing room, a stunningly beautiful face was reflected in the large mirror, but her red lips were curled up in a hint of irony.
“Is that money still not enough to satisfy your vanity?”
“What’s the rush? Are you ghosts waiting to be reincarnated?”
With just two sentences, she made the person on the other end of the phone furious.
In the end, the man on the phone sneered and left a harsh message, “Don’t forget about your Beta grandmother.”
Li Yingxue immediately narrowed her eyes and hung up the phone, folding her arms. The screen of her phone clearly displayed the name of her father.
At this time, her agent, Feng Qiao, came over, “Yingxue, someone is looking for you.”
“Who?”
“Fu Man.”
After a while, the agent brought the woman outside into the room, leaving the two of them alone. Li Yingxue opened a jewelry box and, listening to the footsteps behind her, waited for Fu Man to speak.
“If you have something to say, just say it. I have other things to do later.”
Fu Man was doing this kind of thing for the first time and felt a little unnatural. She chose a sofa and sat down, still habitually crossing her legs, “They won’t actually bite you.”
Li Yingxue put a pair of sparkling diamond earrings on her earlobe and asked, “Is Miss Fu here to settle a score?”
There was a long silence.
“…No.”
Li Yingxue glanced at the mirror and then at Fu Man sitting on the sofa, and asked back, “So you want me to apologize to you?”
Fu Man paused, as if she had regained her composure, and raised her chin, saying coldly, “It would be best if you could apologize.”
Li Yingxue stood up from her seat and suddenly laughed, a silent mockery.
“I still have things to do. I’ll take my leave first.”
With that, Li Yingxue picked up her bag and prepared to leave.
“Why do you hate snakes so much?”
Fu Man didn’t forget the purpose of her visit today. She instinctively stood up and blocked the woman, her gaze falling on the Omega in front of her.
“Have you…experienced something bad?”
As soon as she said this, Fu Man noticed that the Omega in front of her became even more distant and cold. She only heard her say emotionlessly, “No, I just simply don’t like cold-blooded animals like snakes.”
Seeing that she was about to walk around her, Fu Man stepped forward again to block her path, looking at the beautiful and bright face that made one breathless. She stared for a moment, then spoke dryly, “They’ve all been dealt with.”
Li Yingxue looked at her coldly, “What does it have to do with me?”
“Get out of the way.”
Fu Man didn’t move, as if she had prepared herself for a long time, and asked with raised lips, “When are you going back?”
Li Yingxue looked as if she had heard a joke, her eyes, expression, and even the curve of her red lips were filled with a mocking that could not be ignored.
“Back where?”
Fu Man coughed, “My home.”
She knew that she was somewhat slapping herself in the face now, after all, she was the one who had driven her away, and now she had to come back and coax her.
But she had no choice.
Li Yingxue simply couldn’t be bothered to give her a look, as if talking to her was a waste of life. She walked straight out, but the next second, her wrist was grabbed.
“Miss Li, I think I’m your fiancee.”
Fu Man subconsciously pulled her back, “Shouldn’t fiancees live together?”
“Let go.”
Under Li Yingxue’s cold gaze, Fu Man opened her mouth and, probably feeling guilty, finally let go of her slender wrist.
A moment later, Fu Man was alone in the large dressing room.
A Ci called and asked, “Your Highness, did you coax her?”
Fu Man looked at the empty dressing room and replied concisely, “Not yet.”
A Ci asked, “Then did Your Highness find out why she couldn’t be coaxed back?”
There was a brief silence on the other end.
“Probably because she’s not easy to coax.”
Anyway, it wasn’t her fault.
Fu Man had no interest in making herself feel foolish. Since she couldn’t be coaxed, she wouldn’t try anymore and prepared to go home.
But as she was about to walk to the door, it was suddenly opened from the outside, and she was almost pushed.
“You haven’t left yet?”
When Li Yingxue saw that Fu Man hadn’t left, she frowned, clearly not happy that she was still in her dressing room.
Fu Man heard her displeasure and said coldly, “I’ll leave right now.”
Li Yingxue ignored her and walked straight to the dressing table drawer, quickly searching for something.
However, she couldn’t find what she was looking for after searching through all the drawers.
Quite a few cosmetics on the table fell to the ground, making a clattering sound, which caused Fu Man, who was about to leave, to turn back and take a look.
This look made her retract the step she had taken and turned towards Li Yingxue.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Fu Man stood in front of her, looking down at Li Yingxue who was squatting, feeling that something was wrong with her.
Because Li Yingxue’s usually calm face had an unnatural flush.
