Transmigrated into the Villainess Alpha Who Marked the Female Lead (GL) - Chapter 1
“Are you okay?” A soft voice drifted from above Ji Ci’s head, like a gentle breeze across her ear.
Ji Ci barely managed to prop herself up, lifting her heavy eyelids. The person’s form, after intense swaying, finally came into focus.
Before her stood a tall, slender girl, as graceful as a bamboo shoot.
Her long hair was tied into a flowing ponytail, strands around her forehead subtly wafting in the wind. Beneath willowy brows, a pair of clear, bright, ink-black pupils gleamed. Her eyes were shallow-set, and when she looked at someone, she seemed gentle and kind.
The girl extended a slender arm, concern etched on her brow, and with it, a faint, elegant fragrance wafted into Ji Ci’s nostrils.
She knew the other person intended to help her up.
She stood frozen, unwilling to move, as her body was covered in dust, her hands grimy, scarred with streaks of bl00d.
The girl noticed her hesitation.
She tilted her head slightly, her gentle gaze directly piercing into Ji Ci’s heart, leaving no room for refusal.
Ji Ci lowered her head, not daring to meet her gaze.
She was a les, an introverted and repressed one, most afraid of holding a girl’s hand or looking into a pretty girl’s eyes.
Ji Ci hesitated, but the girl insisted on helping her. She could only extend her dirty hand, letting it fall into that clean palm.
“Your forehead seems to be still bleeding,” the girl said as she pulled her up, staring at her forehead. She asked with concern, “Do you need me to take you to the hospital?”
Ji Ci let out an “Ah?”
Confused, bewildered.
She still hadn’t figured out what had happened.
Her memory stopped at her escaping from the dormitory at night, running alone to a deserted building in the suburbs, and leaping from the rooftop. The desolate concrete ground was stained with her bl00d; the sensation of shattered bones was still vividly clear in her mind.
How did she wake up again, and everything around her had changed?
The place she was in was filled with vegetation; a faint scent of grass was fresh and pleasant. In the distance, tall buildings were visible, and car horns could be heard, suggesting it was likely a park-like area.
Ji Ci pondered, thinking things over, and finally understood.
It’s often said that before dying, people recall their entire lives, manifesting the most beautiful scenes from their hearts.
Her greatest wish in this life was probably to study hard, earn a lot of money, and find a girl who loved her back to spend her life with.
This wish was impossible with her death, so had the “her” before her been conjured up?
The girl, after a long silence without an answer, asked softly, “Classmate, you…?”
Ji Ci snapped back to reality and smiled shyly.
The girl: “…”
“You’re really beautiful,” Ji Ci praised without hesitation, grinning. “Can I touch your face?”
The girl: “???”
Ji Ci took a step forward.
Anyway, she was just an imaginary person; it wouldn’t matter if she touched her. In this life, she hadn’t even dared to come out about her sexuality; why not do whatever she pleased this one last time?
The girl clearly hadn’t expected this person to actually “carry out” her words.
A faint Alpha pheromone pressed towards her. Strangely, this peculiar girl didn’t carry an oppressive aura.
When the girl reacted,
A pair of sincere eyes, magnified, appeared before her.
Ji Ci fluttered her long eyelashes, held up a finger, and lightly placed it on those curved lips. Her dirty, dust-covered hand and the brightly colored lips appeared in the same frame, creating a sense of incongruity.
Ji Ci’s finger unconsciously picked up some moisture. As she rubbed it, an indescribable doubt welled up in her heart.
But still, this was a bit too real…
Like a real person.
The girl remained remarkably calm about Ji Ci’s transgression, watching the strange girl either giggle foolishly or look perplexed, displaying every possible expression.
She had never encountered such a person before, or perhaps this was a unique kind of “admirer”?
Ji Ci stared at the girl’s face, a silent “hmm” echoing in her mind.
She then raised her dirty hand again, resting it on the girl’s fair, delicate cheek, pinching it with two fingers.
The girl’s head moved slightly in the direction of the force. She raised her eyelids in surprise, her eyes radiating a chill, as if to freeze someone in a literal ice cellar on a warm March day.
She was a few centimeters taller than Ji Ci.
Ji Ci’s eyes, looking up, happened to catch this scene. She quickly dropped her hand, reverting to her true nature as a timid lesbian afraid to meet the gaze of a beautiful girl.
Just as she expected a scolding,
The girl merely looked at her with slight surprise, seemingly without hostility. Ji Ci even wondered if she had misread the earlier moment.
“You really are…” The girl’s red lips parted, her voice as gentle as ever.
“What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing?”
Suddenly, a loud, grumbling female voice intruded upon the scene. Ji Ci looked in the direction of the sound.
A blonde girl was running towards them aggressively, her anger seemingly directed at no one in particular.
Ah! It must be her.
Ji Ci couldn’t dodge fast enough and was body-checked by the blonde, stumbling backward repeatedly until her heels hit a tree, barely allowing her to regain her balance.
What’s going on?
Why did she feel like she was made of paper and almost sent flying?
“I’ve seen you skulking around for a long time. What, couldn’t resist and decided to make a move?”
Ji Ci: “???”
What the heck? How was she “skulking around”?
She had been convinced she was in her own hallucination.
The girl stepped forward, glanced at Ji Ci’s forehead, and said softly, “Never mind, Jiang Yi, she’s injured after all.”
Ji Ci’s pupils suddenly dilated.
She knew this scene felt inexplicably familiar, like it had played out in her mind before.
Jiang Yi? Stalking?
Ji Ci’s gaze focused on the tear mole beneath the girl’s eye. It was definitely there.
No way, no way?!
“Being injured isn’t a reason to stalk someone! I’ve never seen such a disgusting person. She didn’t use her pheromones to suppress you, did she?”
The girl shook her head.
The blonde girl’s brow, which could’ve squashed a mosquito, relaxed slightly. She pointed at Ji Ci, “Hey, what grade and class are you in? I’m going to find your grade dean tomorrow.”
“No… I… this…” Ji Ci, seeing her domineering attitude, instinctively took a step back, but there was nowhere left to retreat.
How would she know what grade or class she was in…?
However, through Jiang Yi’s words, she was now absolutely certain that the stunning girl before her was Bai Yueli.
The situation became tense for a moment.
Ji Ci’s mind was a mess. Jiang Yi didn’t seem to have any intention of letting her go.
Sure enough, just like in the book, once she latched on, she couldn’t be shaken off. Either she’d lose a layer of skin or be expelled from school. She was practically the female lead’s personal representative.
Ji Ci was truly grateful for her past experiences now, which allowed her to remain calm in a crisis and force out a smile, her tone surprisingly light: “Haha, I just remembered I have something to do, so I’ll be going now.”
After saying that, she bolted without a second thought, running with all her might, terrified of being caught.
“You stop right there!” Jiang Yi chased for a bit, but seeing herself getting farther and farther behind, she gave up.
Bai Yueli looked at the spot where Ji Ci had been standing and picked up a small, square card.
“Wait…” she murmured to herself.
But there was no one in sight.
Jiang Yi walked back and stopped beside Bai Yueli, looking at the student ID card in her hand.
“Ji Ci, Alpha, First Year, Class Five, day student…” Jiang Yi said, “This person, it turns out she’s in the same class as Junior Ji Feng.”
Bai Yueli pressed her lips together, silent.
Only when it was just her and Jiang Yi, she wasn’t the amiable person she was in public. A faint worry etched her brow.
She looked in the direction the girl had vanished,
And unexpectedly, curved her lips into a slight smile.
As the sun gradually set, the girl sat on the lawn, the wind gently caressing her face, her loose hair fluttering slightly.
After leaving that chaotic scene, Ji Ci discovered a small, inconspicuous backpack on her back.
The bag was light, with little inside.
A practice book that could verify her current identity, with her name marked on it; and a single-lens reflex camera that accounted for most of the weight.
Ji Ci expressionlessly scrolled through the photos inside.
It was quite alarming,
The same person, different angles, different levels of intimacy. This was probably someone who had followed her all the way home.
She couldn’t imagine what kind of “hospitality” she would have received if she hadn’t managed to escape and Jiang Yi had detained her there and seen what was in the camera.
By now, she had no choice but to believe,
She had truly transmigrated into a book.
A universally adored Omega who didn’t want to be in a relationship, a “buy-stock” novel that used a GL (Girl’s Love) label to deceive her, a lesbian, only to end with a BG (Boy-Girl) pairing. Each character in the book had extremely high discussion rates, but the most discussed, apart from the female lead, were her popular CPs, who had to take a backseat to a cannon fodder Alpha female who drove the plot.
This Alpha female had a unique environmental advantage in the entire book—her Alpha mother and the female lead’s aunt, who raised her, had a deep, unforgettable first love. She was infatuated with the female lead but didn’t use this connection to pursue her properly. Instead, she brazenly moved into the female lead’s house and installed miniature cameras in her room to monitor her.
She had coveted the female lead for a long time, showing no gratitude for the female lead’s help with her studies and life. On a dark and stormy night, she forcibly marked the female lead while she was in heat in the bathroom.
Her eventual fate was, naturally, extraordinarily tragic.
The dark spark in the female lead’s heart was completely ignited by her.
No matter how much her aunt and the villainess’s mother pleaded for mercy, the female lead firmly refused to sign a letter of understanding, sending her to prison, having her glands removed, and bribing the prison guards to put rats in her cell to gnaw at her wounds daily.
The villainess eventually died of shame and pain, smashing her head against a wall.
Thinking of this, Ji Ci instinctively shrank her neck, a cold draft sweeping down her back.
Yes, she was that villainess Alpha in the text, comparable to An Mou Rong.
Ji Ci’s mind couldn’t help but flash back to the female lead’s sharp gaze when she pinched her face, yet in a blink of an eye, it was again gentle and amiable.
She had even suspected it was her own illusion at the time.
Now, was it really just an illusion?
People who don’t read novels carefully often find the female lead’s later blackening abrupt, because the author initially portrayed her as a pure, innocent character, capable of grandly forgiving even being forcibly marked.
The author embedded many details,
Ji Ci, who had read the novel word for word, knew better than anyone.
The female lead was accustomed to enduring,
Once all her endurance reached a breaking point, her methods of revenge would be more brutal than anyone else’s.
So, Ji Ci now reasonably suspected that while the female lead smiled gently on the surface, she had long since recorded Ji Ci in her mental notebook.
Ah, this is difficult.
Who knew she’d start without understanding the situation?
She didn’t know whether to be glad that her life could continue, or to curse her bad luck for having the same cursed name as the villainess.
The sun gradually sank below the horizon, painting the land in shades of orange-red.
Ji Ci sighed, packed her things, and knew that finding her residence was her top priority. But she hadn’t inherited any of the original owner’s memories, making even going home a troublesome affair.
There was, of course, a way to get back.
Beichen No. 1 High School was the main setting for the early plot development. As long as she found out the way to Beiyi, and then asked the security guard to contact her family, it would be fine.
Ji Ci randomly asked a passerby,
It turned out that the place where she had met the female lead earlier was on the way to Beiyi.
She walked along the road, pondering the lines she would use when she met the original owner’s family.
Lost in thought, she didn’t notice a silver-white car silently stopping nearby, having followed her.
“Xiao Ci.” The car’s horn honked.
Ji Ci startled, looking in the direction of the sound.
A car was parked by the roadside. The woman inside had chestnut wavy hair and wore round, narrow-rimmed glasses on her nose, appearing intellectual and mature.
Ji Ci’s mind quickly scrolled through the novel, and she cautiously said, “Mom… Mama?!”
The woman’s eyes were deep-set, radiating a certain stern aura when she looked at people.
Ji Ci bit her lower lip.
Could it be… she recognized the wrong person?
“Why are you standing there? Aren’t you getting in?”
With the woman’s call, Ji Ci finally shed a heavy burden and secretly sighed in relief.
Under the woman’s intense gaze, she opened the back door.
The woman, seeing her buckle her seatbelt in the rearview mirror, started the car. Throughout, she kept an eye on the road ahead while also observing her “daughter” through the rearview mirror.
“What happened to your forehead?”
“Oh,” the wound no longer hurt. Ji Ci had forgotten to prepare a script for this and simply decided to explain it along with something else: “I accidentally got hit by a car on the road.”
She put on a distressed, wronged expression: “…Mom, my head feels dizzy. It’s like I can’t remember a lot of things from before, which is why I came back so late.”
It was quite a clumsy excuse.
But she had no memories of the original owner, and if she didn’t find an excuse early on, she would be exposed sooner or later.
The book didn’t describe much about the villainess’s family. The villainess’s mother usually appeared with the female lead’s aunt, and their previous generation’s love-hate entanglement created the opportunity for the villainess to forcibly mark the female lead.
Ji Liangying was a scholar, an honorary professor at Bo’ai Hospital.
In the world depicted by the author, doctors, lawyers, and those with extremely high social status were at the top of the pyramid. The villainess’s mother, being able to reach this position, had unparalleled academic prowess and work capability.
However, even the most astute person might not be capable of everything.
Ji Liangying believed such an easily scrutinized excuse. She nodded, “Okay, after you get your gland examination, also get an MRI.”
Gland examination?
Ji Ci finally understood. They weren’t going home now; they were going to the hospital.
Did the original owner have something wrong with her glands?
She really didn’t know; it wasn’t mentioned in the book. Anyway, when she forcibly marked the female lead, she was quite capable; the female lead struggled greatly but couldn’t wash away the pheromones she left in her…
It seemed that this world,
While developing based on the tone of the book, had details that deviated from the original story.
Author’s Note:
The story begins! Xiao Ci and her senior meet everyone!
A side note: The Alphas in this book do not have “appendages” (referring to male genitalia).
