After the Scumbag Alpha Accidentally Marked the Blackened Villain - Chapter 2

Lin Bie froze. A memory of the plot flashed in her mind.

In the original story, the character she now inhabited was a classic scumbag Alpha. To someone like that, genuine emotion was the most worthless thing—mainly because she didn’t have any to begin with.

But…

Lin Bie quickly composed herself, then looked at Leng Jinxi with uncharacteristic seriousness.

“I know I was awful before. I know you don’t believe a word I say right now. But this… what happened, it’s mostly my fault, and I’m not going to walk away from it.”

Some things might make for good drama in a novel, but Lin Bie could never bring herself to act like the original Alpha—someone who climbed out of bed and pretended nothing had happened. Even if it sounded like empty excuses from a liar’s mouth, she had to explain.

Sure enough, Leng Jinxi merely gave her a long, unreadable look before shaking her off and turning to leave.

“Do what you want,” she said coldly.

But as she took her next step, her knees gave way and her body pitched forward. Lin Bie reacted quickly and caught her before she could collapse.

The heat radiating off Leng Jinxi’s fragile frame was alarming. Her breath, fanning against Lin Bie’s collarbone, was hot—feverishly so.

Stunned, Leng Jinxi stiffened in Lin Bie’s arms before angrily trying to push away.

“Let go of me!”

Lin Bie frowned, carefully helped her back to bed. “I’m getting you medicine. You need to go to the hospital.”

“Not your place to say,” Leng Jinxi snapped through labored breaths, still icy despite her flushed cheeks.

Lin Bie paused, then said quietly, “The fever is because of me. So yeah, it is my place. Where’s your medicine?”

She felt the razor-sharp glare cut into her back but didn’t budge, waiting patiently.

“Bottom drawer, left side of the living room cabinet.”

She found the medicine quickly—and also discovered a box of Omega suppressants. That jolted her memory.

This world’s ABO system had unique rules. While most Alphas and Omegas were average, there was a 0.01% chance of becoming S-Class.

S-Class Alphas and Omegas were indistinguishable from the average most of the time—except during heat or susceptibility periods. Leng Jinxi was one of those rare S-Class Omegas.

From the moment they differentiated, S-Class Omegas developed differently. Their heat cycles could be triggered by stress or health conditions. Unlike ordinary Omegas, their heat couldn’t be stopped even with a mark—only managed. And it lasted longer, requiring constant use of suppressant patches year-round.

Likewise, Lin Bie’s original body was an S-Class Alpha.

In the novel, the original Alpha locked Leng Jinxi at home, forbade her from using suppressants, and refused to offer her pheromones. Leng Jinxi had to endure heat after heat alone.

The pain was several times worse for S-Class Omegas. Each episode left permanent damage. Repeated suppression eventually destroyed her glands entirely—leaving her unable to ever be marked.

To the Leng family, she was just a pawn for political marriage. Divorce wasn’t an option. Trapped and abused, Leng Jinxi was driven to the brink.

If meeting Lin Bie had never happened, Leng Jinxi’s blackening value might have stayed around 10%.

But having met her? It would hit 100%.

Lin Bie stared grimly at the suppressants, grabbed the fever patch and meds, and was about to stand when a sudden ding! echoed in her mind.

[Congratulations, Host! You’ve unlocked your system. I’m your personal assistant—call me “System”!]

“…Can you not right now?” Lin Bie said flatly. “I need to give her the meds first.”

[……]

The excited System shut up instantly. Lin Bie, still holding the meds, turned to head back.

Just as she reached the bedroom door, something soft brushed against her ankle. Looking down, she spotted a silver tabby Maine Coon cat curling around her foot.

“So cute.”

She gave it a quick pet, then opened the door.

Inside, Leng Jinxi sat on the edge of the bed, gazing listlessly at the large tree outside the window. She looked up at the sound of the door—expression frosty as ever.

“Your sister called. Get dressed and go home.”

“My sister?” Lin Bie echoed.

Leng Jinxi gave her a complicated look.

“Yes. Your sister.” She tilted her head toward the nightstand. “Your phone’s over there. Contact her yourself.”

Though her voice was weak, the flush from her fever gave her a fragile, ethereal beauty as she lounged quietly on the bed.

“Have you thought about how to explain this to her?”

“Explain what?”

Leng Jinxi let out a cold chuckle, her gaze skimming over Lin Bie’s slightly open pajama collar.

“Throwing a tantrum at the wedding, refusing to marry me, and yet showing up at my house the next day… covered in kiss marks.”

Her tone was mocking, but her smile was cold as she turned back toward the window.

“I’ll explain it,” Lin Bie muttered, ignoring the sarcasm. She still didn’t know the backstory with this so-called sister, but for now, she walked over with the fever patch and suppressant.

“The water’s still hot. Just apply this for now. And use this suppressant—it’ll help with the pheromone overflow.”

Ever since that morning, the room had been thick with Leng Jinxi’s camellia-scented pheromones. Lin Bie could sense her distress through it, knew she was trying to endure it.

But the moment Leng Jinxi saw the suppressant patch, her expression darkened.

“Get out.”

The words came through clenched teeth, her fury barely contained.

Lin Bie realized too late—offering a suppressant patch after a forced mark was tantamount to disgust. To an Omega, it felt like being told their pheromones were unbearable. Anyone would be enraged.

The room was saturated with her angry pheromones. Even Lin Bie, now more sensitive after marking her, was starting to feel the pressure.

“I don’t need that. I don’t need you. Get out.”

Leng Jinxi’s face had turned to ice.

Even Lin Bie, who usually kept her cool, was losing patience. She dropped the patches on the nightstand.

“Fine. Burn up with a fever then. Not my problem.”

Snatching up her phone, she stormed out. She didn’t even glance at the cat now licking its paw by the door.

Once the door slammed shut, she exhaled sharply and clutched her racing heart.

Villains really are different. Just standing in that room full of camellia pheromones made me want to bolt.

She poured herself a glass of warm water in the kitchen and took the chance to unlock the phone. Thankfully, there was facial recognition.

Instantly, a flood of WeChat messages popped up—most of them from the original Alpha’s pack of awful friends. Lin Bie skimmed through, growing increasingly disgusted.

[How’d it feel, Lin Bie, humiliating the Leng family at your own wedding? You went too fast, though. If it was me, I’d marry her first and then slowly break her. A helpless Omega like that is easy to handle. She’s a film queen, too—should’ve gotten pics. What a waste.]

[It’s been 12 hours, no reply. Whose Omega are you hooking up with this time? Hook me up with one too!]

[Everyone’s saying you humiliated Leng Jinxi in public. Good job! I’ve always hated that ice princess act of hers. She’s just an Omega—who does she think she is?!]

…

Lin Bie scowled. She took back what she said earlier—not only was the original Alpha a lunatic, but her whole friend group was too.

She’d landed right in the middle of a madhouse.

Her fingers flew as she cussed them all out, blocked them one by one, then stared at the rising steam from her water to calm down.

That’s when she remembered something she’d ignored.

“System.”

[……I’m here.]

The System sounded grumpy, as if sulking after being cold-shouldered so long.

Lin Bie didn’t bother placating it.

“What’s going on here? How do I get back? Can I even go back?”

[Do you want to return?]

“Of course. I still need to sue everyone who spread rumors about me and get justice for my grandma.”

[Understood. Wish logged: ‘Return Home.’]

[You arrived here after a car accident. Fulfill the mission, and you’ll be sent back. You are now inside a web novel—a dog-bl00d ABO story—as the Alpha Lin Bie. Your goal is to complete one of two tasks:]

① Successfully “clear” the main story by befriending both heroines and achieving a peaceful, happy ending.

② Push the villainess Leng Jinxi to full blackening and cause the world to collapse.
