Transmigrated Before the Scum A Tortured the Female Lead (GL) - Chapter 16
Song Jiao, of course, noticed Xu Jinzhao’s nervousness.
After the Alpha finished speaking in one breath, she was extremely flustered. Even in the night, the blush on her cheeks was very noticeable.
Song Jiao lowered her eyelashes, pretending not to hear her promise just now.
In fact, she also had reservations about those words, even though the other party showed an unprecedented sincerity and genuineness that Song Jiao found extremely unfamiliar.
But Song Jiao knew that questioning was the basis of her survival, and she had to maintain a skeptical attitude towards everything to be deceived as little as possible.
Being deceived meant risk, and Song Jiao had very little left. She didn’t have much room for error.
Now that Xu Jinzhao herself took the initiative to change the subject, it also saved her the trouble of thinking about how to properly respond to this promise.
Song Jiao didn’t even realize that she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she should have said “I believe you” insincerely. This would be what Xu Jinzhao liked to hear, and it would also make the other party feel that she was very obedient and didn’t have dangerous wildness.
But for some reason, she suddenly didn’t want to pretend anymore, at least not at this moment.
Song Jiao looked up at Xu Jinzhao and chose to respond to her self-talking emotion: “I’ve learned musical instruments, but I don’t understand music.”
These words sounded very contradictory, but they came from the bottom of her heart and were not false.
Song Jiao had indeed learned the piano. At that time, she still had a complete family, and she was taken to a master to learn.
She was born with a serious and focused personality, and she practiced harder than other children, working very hard.
But later, her teacher sighed and said: “There is no emotion in your piano.”
Song Jiao didn’t understand. She had been trying very hard to imitate and learn, but what did playing the piano have to do with emotion?
To be honest, Song Jiao still didn’t understand how other people could hear so many complex emotions from music. This was something she couldn’t do.
Song Jiao could distinguish the melody and playing skills of the music, but in a sense, Song Jiao really didn’t understand music.
The Alpha seemed to think she was being modest and shook her head and smiled.
Song Jiao pursed her lips and suddenly regretted saying what she had analyzed from the Alpha’s expression.
She was someone who didn’t understand, so why did she use Xu Jinzhao’s own experience to deceive her?
Seeing Song Jiao lower her head again and refuse to speak, Xu Jinzhao didn’t force her, but suggested: “Let’s take a walk, don’t rush home.”
The Omega seemed to have become a little mute, silent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Xu Jinzhao tentatively took two steps forward, and saw her follow closely, and immediately felt funny and cute.
The two of them walked side by side on the streets of the city at night.
The early autumn night wind turned cold, and Xu Jinzhao gathered her clothes, her hands were a little cold.
She glanced at the person next to her. The Omega hid her hands in her sleeves, only showing a little fingertip outside.
Xu Jinzhao thought for a while and changed direction to the corner of the street.
There were stalls selling small ceramic and glass ornaments, cheap bracelets, potted plants, and other miscellaneous things.
Song Jiao followed with some doubts, standing next to the stall. She wasn’t sure what the other party intended. After all, Xu Jinzhao wasn’t the type to be interested in these little things.
She watched the Alpha pick and choose in the cardboard box filled with wool products, and finally found a bag of transparent plastic paper packaged things. Because of the light, Song Jiao didn’t see what it was.
Xu Jinzhao asked the price, and there was change left over from buying breakfast in the morning in her wallet.
After paying, she opened the pair of beautiful gloves she had spotted at first glance, tore off the outer packaging, and handed them to Song Jiao: “Aren’t they pretty? Try them on.”
Song Jiao took it in a daze and looked down.
The soft, thin, plush fingerless gloves showed a warm orange color, with some dark orange stripes similar to tabby cat patterns. When the two gloves were unfolded, you could see light pink color blocks woven in the palm of the hand to imitate the kitten’s paw pads.
Song Jiao put on the gloves, and she found that they really looked like the real thing.
Xu Jinzhao was overjoyed. The Alpha’s heroic eyebrows were raised, and her eyes, which were originally upturned at the end with a charming style, were bent with laughter.
“They look good, they match your little shoulder bag.”
Song Jiao belatedly realized that Xu Jinzhao was referring to her canvas bag with simple cat gel prints.
She bought that bag casually in the store, didn’t choose carefully at all, and only found these overly childish prints when she brought it back.
This person’s aesthetic is really childish, the Omega thought.
But she subconsciously squeezed her palms, the orange stripes swayed under the street lights, and her cold palms were covered with warmth.
Xu Jinzhao said: “Let’s go home.”
Song Jiao looked up at her and responded softly, “Okay.”
They walked towards the parking lot, this time side by side.
When they came to the parking space, Xu Jinzhao took two steps forward and opened the back door of the car.
The warm yellow light in the car shone on her face, and her eyes also reflected a different gentle light: “Get in the car.”
After Song Jiao sat down, Xu Jinzhao gently closed the car door.
A few seconds later, the Alpha got into the driver’s seat. She took off her windbreaker, making rustling sounds of fabric friction.
Song Jiao watched her fold the windbreaker and put it on the passenger seat, and then went to get her shoes.
The green dress on the Alpha’s body was a sleeveless shoulder design, and when she took off her windbreaker, she revealed her snow-white arms.
She leaned down, one arm propped on the back of the car seat, her fingertips deeply embedded in the soft leather, the contrast between white and black was so distinct that it made people feel thirsty.
Her half-length curly hair also slipped from her shoulders with the movement. Song Jiao could see her beautiful neck with the blocker attached, and a small piece of skin on her back that was not covered by the fabric.
When Xu Jinzhao changed her driving shoes and fastened her seat belt, she heard the Omega in the back seat say:
“You will prepare an extra inhibitor for me, right?”
Xu Jinzhao was stunned, and then said: “Of course. Your next heat should be in a week. I’ll get it for you in advance.”
Song Jiao didn’t speak after that.

The next day was Saturday, and Song Jiao had no classes.
Xu Jinzhao’s biological clock seemed to be fixed at 6 o’clock. She got up early again, went out for a morning run, and brought breakfast home.
Somehow, Song Jiao got up a little later than yesterday.
When she got up, the steamed buns were still warm, but the taste of the small wontons was not as good as when they were freshly bought.
Xu Jinzhao was a little embarrassed, feeling that she hadn’t considered it carefully.
After Song Jiao finished eating, she suggested: “You don’t have classes today, let’s go to the housekeeping company. I’ll drive, and you’ll talk.”
Compared with the tone she used when talking about this at the same time yesterday, it was very different now.
Xu Jinzhao herself was also a little surprised. In just one day, the atmosphere between her and Song Jiao had eased so much.
This also made her more despise the original owner. Song Jiao was such an easy-going person. The relationship was so bitter and hateful before, all thanks to [Xu Jinzhao]’s bad deeds.
If the original owner had done a good deed, it wouldn’t have been like this.
However, she was well aware of the suspicious side of Song Jiao’s personality and planned to leave this matter to her.
Song Jiao had no objection. After finishing her breakfast, the two went out together.
Xu Jinzhao did her duty as a driver. She drove Song Jiao to the housekeeping company downstairs, lowered the car window, and smiled: “I’ll wait for you here, don’t rush.”
The sun was relatively strong today, and Xu Jinzhao wore sunglasses.
Song Jiao’s eyes swept across her lips, which were smeared with milk apricot velvet lip gloss, and nodded lightly before turning to leave.
Xu Jinzhao watched Song Jiao’s back through her sunglasses. Her outfit today was nothing like a student’s, and even her behavior and walking posture had changed.
The Omega wore a V-neck, waist-cinching knee-length dress, wrapped in a light and soft shawl, and simply curled her long hair with a curling iron and tucked it behind her ears, with jewelry on her delicate earlobes and neck.
Xu Jinzhao roughly guessed Song Jiao’s intention.
Which was easier to fleece, a young, lamb-like female student or a shrewd, married Omega? It was self-evident.
At the front desk, Song Jiao scrutinized the interior decoration with a critical eye.
“Find me a full-time housekeeper. Not too old, but not too young either. They need to be quick, efficient, and quiet.”
She recalled Xu Jinzhao’s sparkling eyes and satisfied expression during dinner last night and added,
“They must be good at cooking.”
