The Scumbag Alpha and the Movie Queen Omega's Arranged Marriage - Chapter 6
The police report was supposed to be taken at the police station, but because Lu Xueyin was in a bad physical state, they came to her instead.
Sheng Lan was the person who reported the crime, so she also came along.
She was originally there to accompany Lu Xueyin, but they were separated for questioning.
The living room was very large, and no one raised their voice.
Sheng Lan’s excellent hearing came into play here, and she could hear what Lu Xueyin was saying.
The call was from Feng Zhitong, who had impersonated Sheng Lan to lure Lu Xueyin to the “poisonous room.”
What Lu Xueyin couldn’t explain was why she had given her phone away.
And she refused to answer.
Sheng Lan glanced over.
When Lu Xueyin pursed her lips, her attitude became even more stubborn.
She had changed into a classic-style suit to meet the police.
Since she was indoors, she didn’t need to wear a jacket.
The blouse outlined her slender waist, and her long legs were wrapped in trousers.
The buttons were meticulously buttoned to the top, and the collar was stiff, completely covering her scent gland.
Her long, curly hair was tied up, a lazy style that didn’t match the formal attire.
When she refused to answer a question, she would lower her head and her gaze.
This motion caused the strands of hair at the side of her ears to fall down. She would instinctively tuck them back behind her ear with her fair fingers.
Then, the next time she lowered her head, she would repeat the motion.
After she did it a few times, Sheng Lan felt her heart clench.
The ink-black hair seemed to be coiling around her heart.
She wanted to help Lu Xueyin tie her hair up.
Turning her head back, Sheng Lan continued to explain her relationship with Feng Zhitong.
“We’ve known each other since we were kids. We were classmates in kindergarten, and we lived in the same villa community until junior high school. Then my family moved, and then we went to different universities, but we always kept in touch—”
“An acquaintance, but not a friend.”
In normal adult social circles, few people would go out of their way to announce to the world that they were just acquaintances with someone and not friends.
Sheng Lan was one of those people. They had known each other for so many years, so as long as they were polite to each other, it was fine.
She just didn’t understand what Feng Zhitong was trying to do.
In the original plot, Feng Zhitong and the scumbag Alpha were very close. When the scumbag Alpha found out that Feng Zhitong had set up the poisonous room, she even publicly announced that they were the best of friends.
Sheng Lan showed a look of disgust.
The phone call with Feng Zhitong had been recorded and was submitted as evidence.
Lu Xueyin wouldn’t reveal the real reason she gave up her phone, but the other statements also pointed to Feng Zhitong.
For now, everything was going smoothly.
They were told to keep their phones on, as the police would contact them later.
After seeing the police off, Sheng Lan stretched.
She preferred high-waisted pants and short tops, so this motion pulled the hem of her shirt up.
Whether her waist was slim or not, Lu Xueyin didn’t pay attention.
She just noticed that Sheng Lan’s abs were very nice.
They were firm and toned, without a hint of excess fat.
Noticing Lu Xueyin’s gaze, Sheng Lan immediately acted demure and straightened her clothes.
She wasn’t embarrassed.
She didn’t want to be mistaken for seducing the “female lead.”
Her delicate body really couldn’t handle being framed a second time.
In Lu Xueyin’s eyes, it just looked like she was being cautious.
She looked away and took off the heels she was temporarily wearing to make a good impression—even though she had only walked two steps in them.
By the time the report was done, it was already night.
Lu Xueyin didn’t go back to the room. She weakly curled up on the sofa.
She was even too lazy to find a pair of slippers and just walked barefoot on the rug.
The long, soft fibers nestled against her toes, and a few mischievous tufts tickled the arches of her feet.
She shifted a few times and then pulled her feet back up onto the sofa.
Sheng Lan seemed to smell the rich, warm fragrance of the May rose again.
She shook her head, rubbed her stomach, and sat down a little further away from Lu Xueyin. She continued to order takeout and politely asked Lu Xueyin and Jiang Ling what they wanted.
She also pulled open the coffee table drawer and reached for a suppressant spray.
Noticing Lu Xueyin looking over, Sheng Lan casually moved her hand, grabbed a small mirror from inside, and pretended to be narcissistic.
Hmm.
No need to pretend.
Every time Sheng Lan looked in a mirror, her heart politely went thump-thump-thump.
She was just so beautiful!
This carefree attitude was finally too much for Lu Xueyin, who spoke up.
“Is there nothing you want to say to me?”
Sheng Lan was surprised. “Would you even believe me if I did?”
So, Lu Xueyin fell silent.
They both had to wait for the results from the police station.
After a while, Lu Xueyin asked again, “And you have nothing you want to ask me?”
Sheng Lan thought this person was so contradictory.
Wary and on guard, yet she would try to provoke her.
Like a cat.
“You wouldn’t tell me even if I asked.”
This was a big truth, but it made Lu Xueyin turn away in anger.
Once she was gone, Sheng Lan could spray the suppressant.
Jiang Ling, who was still in the living room: “…”
The takeout was delivered again, and there was no way the two pampered young women in the house were going to go down to get it.
Sheng Lan sighed and resigned herself to running the errand.
When she returned, the living room had already been sprayed with odor neutralizer. Jiang Ling came out to get the food and ate with Lu Xueyin in the room.
Through the crack in the door, Sheng Lan saw that Lu Xueyin already had an IV in her arm.
Did she not get her injection this afternoon?
Her ability to focus on the important details was always excellent. “Ling-jie, you’re amazing that you can even do injections.”
Jiang Ling: “…Don’t try to make awkward small talk with me.”
Perfect.
Sheng Lan didn’t bother with a polite smile.
She didn’t like to eat in her room and had a bit of a social butterfly personality, so even with two people staying at home, she still ate in the dining room as usual.
She also took the opportunity to open a video to watch. It was a fan-made video of Lu Xueyin being paired with someone else.
When she heard the music, Jiang Ling knew exactly what she was watching.
After a moment of being speechless, she closed the door with a blank expression.
Lu Xueyin had chosen to come to Sheng Lan’s house herself, but she felt so insecure once she got there. Even with Jiang Ling by her side, she was constantly on edge, waking up three to five times a minute when trying to rest.
The more she slept, the more tired she became.
She had to force herself to go through with the police report in the afternoon. Afterward, she still wanted to bait Sheng Lan into saying something.
She didn’t get a single word out of her, and it used up all of her remaining energy.
Jiang Ling told her to eat a little and then rest, and also offered some advice. “I don’t know what you’re trying to find out about her, but if you’re like this, you won’t even be able to talk to her. How are you supposed to find anything out? Get a good night’s rest, and you’ll have the energy to try again tomorrow.”
If she was going to stay for three days, she needed to rest up so she could try to find out information three hundred times a day.
Lu Xueyin nodded, but she didn’t want to eat. She just pulled the blanket over her head and went to sleep.
She had a temper when she woke up, and when she got serious, Jiang Ling knew better than to persuade her anymore. She took some bedding from the closet and made a bed on the floor.
The living room quieted down, and the sound from the phone seemed loud.
Sheng Lan thought about Lu Xueyin’s pale, haggard face and quietly turned off the video.
After eating, she went back to her room to sleep.
Maybe it was because she had napped in the afternoon, or maybe it was because her estrus hadn’t passed, but after lying down again, Sheng Lan couldn’t fall asleep.
She tossed and turned, thinking about Lu Xueyin.
There were many issues.
Sheng Lan never liked to think about complicated things. Simply put, it was Lu Xueyin’s pheromones.
Their relationship was awkward, and they didn’t have much affection for each other. When they weren’t talking, they could ignore each other. Sheng Lan could just treat her as an invisible guest.
But Lu Xueyin’s pheromones were too persistent.
Sheng Lan hadn’t even gotten close to her or touched her, yet her clothes were filled with the scent.
She rolled around in her blanket and felt the scent of roses was everywhere.
It was too late to change her clothes.
Sheng Lan unlocked her phone.
Asking the internet would just lead to a diagnosis of cancer.
She would ask Meng Chan.
[Mountain Wind]: What’s the deal with an Alpha feeling like another Omega’s scent is everywhere?
Meng Chan told her to just say Lu Xueyin’s name directly.
The overworked employee couldn’t understand the nighttime restlessness of a pure-hearted young Alpha and spoke sharply: “Are you suggesting that Lu Xueyin is trying to seduce you?”
Sheng Lan blinked.
That’s impossible.
So, it meant Lu Xueyin couldn’t control her own pheromones yet.
That made sense.
It was a private chat, so there was no rating.
Sheng Lan was a rule-abiding person. She sent a red envelope for every minute and gave a manual five-star rating.
[Mountain Wind]: I’ll send you a thank-you banner tomorrow. [heart emoji]
Then she fell asleep, and when she woke up, she felt that Lu Xueyin, well, yes, was indeed trying to seduce her.
Lu Xueyin was facing away from Sheng Lan, sitting on the edge of the bed and facing the window. Her hands were propped behind her on the bed, and her upper body was leaning back.
The blackout curtains blocked out most of the sunlight, and only a small ray of light squeezed through a tiny gap, passing them and landing on the carpet in the distance, hiding the intimate moment in the dark.
Sheng Lan could see the beautiful and delicate butterfly bones under the white lace.
She could also see the slightly red scent gland on the back of Lu Xueyin’s neck, inviting a lick or a deep bite.
Her throat was dry.
The tips of her teeth felt itchy.
Sheng Lan closed her eyes, suspecting that the pheromones were causing this.
They had been lingering around her all night, and finally, she had a romantic and beautiful dream.
She turned over.
She wanted to get away, but she couldn’t escape her instincts.
She moved a little closer to Lu Xueyin.
Lu Xueyin seemed to prefer slip dresses, leaving large areas of white skin exposed.
In the darkness, the scent of her pheromones wrapped around her, turning the source of attraction into something substantial that could be reached out and touched.
Sheng Lan’s inner desires were amplified.
There were little people in her mind trying to tempt her.
She had explicitly said that Lu Xueyin was not allowed in her room.
She didn’t think Lu Xueyin would knowingly do something wrong.
This was no different from giving herself to her.
But then she remembered the day Lu Xueyin had asked for her marking, the eyes filled with emotion and the alluring breaths.
A warmth spread across her lap.
It felt like she was being touched, both itchy and tingly.
She pulled her hand back and scratched her leg.
But the itch wasn’t on her leg.
Her hand moved unintentionally and almost touched Lu Xueyin again.
Sheng Lan smelled that the May rose pheromones were getting stronger.
She called out Lu Xueyin’s name.
There was no response.
Sheng Lan threw off the blanket and sat up.
Most Alphas in estrus are not in a good mood.
Their bad nature was brought out by the pheromones.
She didn’t get out of bed. She moved towards Lu Xueyin in a half-kneeling position.
She propped her hands next to Lu Xueyin’s palms but didn’t press down on them. She didn’t cover them tightly or interlock her fingers with them.
She only let their arms brush against each other as she leaned forward.
Sheng Lan’s body temperature was hot, which felt very nice against the cold.
But her target wasn’t there.
She was taller than Lu Xueyin, and her position was also higher.
Her pinkish-brown curly hair revealed its mischievous nature, jumping onto Lu Xueyin’s shoulder and sliding down into her dress.
Lu Xueyin’s body stiffened.
Sheng Lan leaned over to smell the scent gland on the back of her neck.
The source of the rose scent.
As long as she bit down and marked her, she could keep this little rose for herself.
Lu Xueyin’s body became even more rigid.
Sheng Lan’s breathing was intoxicating.
From the back of her neck to the side of her ear.
It was amazing.
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, Sheng Lan wouldn’t have believed it.
Someone’s ears would turn red while their face turned white.
She whispered in Lu Xueyin’s ear, “Sister, did you get the wrong room?”
Sheng Lan was a singer and had excellent control over her voice.
She kept her voice low, suppressed her restlessness, and the heat made her voice hoarse.
Calling her “sister” was full of flirtation.
Lu Xueyin could no longer pretend.
Her face went from white to red, the same color as her ears.
Like a red rose blooming in a pure white porcelain vase, beautiful and delicate.
Her body temperature naturally rose. When she left Sheng Lan’s room, it was almost as if she was running away in a panic.
Sheng Lan was feeling bold today. She sent a message to Lu Xueyin: “You’re a coward who loves to flirt.”
Then she got up to take a shower.
When she came out, she opened Meng Chan’s chat window.
She continued their conversation from last night. “Dr. Meng, your thank-you banner is gone.”
On the other side.
Lu Xueyin went back to her room, sprayed suppressant on herself, and then buried herself in her blanket, pretending that nothing had happened that morning.
Her phone vibrated, and she picked it up to see Sheng Lan’s message.
Lu Xueyin’s eyelashes hid her expression. She long-pressed on the message bubble and deleted the message.
She continued to sleep.
She had reconfirmed that Sheng Lan wasn’t all talk and was really a fake Alpha, the kind that was truly impotent. Because of this, Lu Xueyin slept very soundly.
When Jiang Ling woke up, she didn’t notice the undercurrent of tension between the two newlyweds that morning.
She only tasted a bit of warmth in the atmosphere during dinner.
It was as if a night had passed and they now shared a secret.
Even though they hadn’t said many words, there was a feeling that no one else could intrude on.
This feeling was shattered when Sheng Lan used a same-city delivery service to urgently buy a fingerprint lock.
Jiang Ling’s jaw almost dropped.
“Xueyin, look at her. Does she have some kind of paranoia? She’s an Alpha, and she’s locking her room. Who is she guarding against?”
Lu Xueyin held her cup and slowly sipped her tea, flipping through the reality dating show’s schedule and past scripts that Jiang Ling had printed out.
She looked very calm.
Jiang Ling: “Does she think you’ll go into her room? She’s dreaming!”
Lu Xueyin: “…”
Her eyelashes fluttered, and she told Jiang Ling to ignore it.
“This is her home. It’s none of our business if she wants to install a security door on her room.”
Sheng Lan heard Jiang Ling’s accusation and also heard Lu Xueyin’s “indifference.”
She was a cannon fodder with a strong will to survive and immediately said, “If you need a security door, I can install one for you.”
She also answered Jiang Ling’s question. “It’s obvious that I’m protecting myself from having any ‘improper intentions’ towards my wife.”
Lu Xueyin: “…”
You’re a fake Alpha, what’s with the passive-aggressiveness?
