Transmigrating Before The Crazy Beauty Scum A Loses Control - Chapter 67
The next day, both Luan Yenan and Zuo Baixuan slept until the sun was high in the sky.
The heavy curtains in the room had been fully closed with the remote before going to bed last night, so the room was still dark.
When the doorbell rang softly, Zuo Baixuan opened her eyes and looked at the electronic clock on the bedside table.
Zuo Baixuan had spent almost the entire twenty hours on the plane in a daze, mostly sleeping. When she arrived last night, she was just a bit tired, not really sleepy.
On the other hand, Luan Yenan, who was holding her from behind, was still deep in sleep. She had indeed been very busy recently and hadn’t been able to rest well on the plane.
Not sure if Luan Yenan had scheduled room service, Zuo Baixuan thought about getting up to check.
But Luan Yenan woke up startled and tightened her grip, not letting her leave.
“The doorbell rang.” Zuo Baixuan said in a hoarse voice, her throat feeling like it had been scraped by coarse gravel.
Luan Yenan opened one eye, confirming that Zuo Baixuan was still in her arms, and without much thought, she continued to hold on.
“I need some water.” Zuo Baixuan said helplessly.
Luan Yenan buried her head under the blanket and only let go after a while.
Zuo Baixuan couldn’t help but find it amusing and reached out to gently stroke Luan Yenan’s head.
Luan Yenan’s face remained expressionless as she peacefully fell back asleep.
Zuo Baixuan got up and couldn’t even find her clothes in the room.
She wasn’t sure if Luan Yenan had tidied them up last night or if they were never in the room to begin with.
She walked to the bathroom, took out a bathrobe, wrapped herself up, and went to the door.
The person outside was patient, waiting for five minutes before ringing the doorbell a second time.
Zuo Baixuan wasn’t in a hurry either.
She walked to the bar in the living room, drank a glass of water to avoid any awkwardness when speaking later, and then went to the door just as the third ring came.
Zuo Baixuan peeked through the peephole.
A familiar cheongsam and a thick coat, the word “luxurious” seemed to be printed on this person.
But Zuo Baixuan frowned deeply behind the door.
Last night, she had asked Luan Yenan why Si Ruxin was also here, but she didn’t get an answer. Luan Yenan had said she would find out tomorrow.
Did “finding out” mean that Si Ruxin would suddenly show up at their door?
Had the two of them planned this in advance?
If she hadn’t come, would Si Ruxin still have appeared here?
Moreover, the top floor was a separate presidential suite, and without permission, no one could come up. She had managed to come up yesterday only by a stroke of luck, bringing along the marriage certificate she had once planned to use for a divorce, proving her legal status.
So why could Si Ruxin be here?
Zuo Baixuan stood behind the door, thinking for a few minutes, then put on a confused expression, exaggerating her fatigue tenfold. She rubbed her eyes naturally as she opened the door.
Looking through the security chain, she indeed saw Si Ruxin’s surprised expression.
However, Si Ruxin’s surprise quickly turned into amusement: “So this is why Luan Yenan specifically invited me for lunch today, because Miss Zuo would be here.”
This statement was also a bit cunning.
She had changed the narrative from her inviting Luan Yenan to Luan Yenan inviting her.
But she also described Luan Yenan’s actions as intentional, wanting to see Zuo Baixuan’s reaction.
Zuo Baixuan had learned a lot of conversational techniques from Luan Yenan.
For example, yesterday, she had spoken with eight layers of meaning, several of which were probing.
Luan Yenan, with her eight hundred layers of meaning, hadn’t responded to any of the probes and had just kissed her instead.
Zuo Baixuan decided to adopt Luan Yenan’s strategy of pretending not to hear anything.
She leaned against the door, deliberately showing a surprised expression but shrinking further behind the door: “Oh, Miss Si, I’m sorry, I thought it was room service. Are you looking for Yenan? She’s still sleeping. If it’s urgent, I can wake her up.”
Si Ruxin, completely wrapped in her coat, looked at Zuo Baixuan for a while before saying, “It’s not urgent. We just had a lunch appointment. If it’s convenient, could you let me in to wait for you?”
Zuo Baixuan hummed in agreement and then closed the door.
Si Ruxin waited at the door, but after a long time, the door didn’t open. She was puzzled, staring at the closed door.
Ten seconds later, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly as she realized.
Zuo Baixuan had no intention of letting her in directly!
Indeed.
Not only did Zuo Baixuan naturally feel insecure about her private space and wouldn’t easily let strangers in, but even if she were more carefree, she wouldn’t let in a woman who had ulterior motives and had a lunch appointment with her wife at this moment.
Zuo Baixuan walked from the living room to Luan Yenan with a glass of water.
Resisting the urge to pour it directly on Luan Yenan’s face, she smiled, placed the glass on the bedside table, and pinched Luan Yenan’s cheek.
Luan Yenan opened her eyes groggily: “What’s wrong?”
“Are you getting up for lunch?” Zuo Baixuan asked.
“Not hungry yet. If you’re hungry, you can order room service.” Luan Yenan replied. Her schedule was empty today, and she had originally planned to take the opportunity to stroll around the city center, but since exhaustion had hit, she might as well rest thoroughly.
Zuo Baixuan sat on the edge of the bed, her tone ambiguous: “Perhaps, have you forgotten something?”
Luan Yenan reached out, half-embracing Zuo Baixuan’s waist, her eyes half-closed as she thought for a while. Then, propping her head up with her hand, she looked up with a smirk: “Oh, the person who rang the doorbell earlier was Si Ruxin, right?”
“Oh, so you do remember.” Zuo Baixuan said, lowering her eyes, using the same tone as Luan Yenan, looking at her lying on her lap.
Luan Yenan chuckled: “So what did you see in the country that made you rush over here in such a hurry? The only interaction I’ve had with Si Ruxin was at the auction, and it was only for five minutes after the auction.”
Zuo Baixuan’s ears immediately turned red.
Their brief five-minute interaction had made her so anxious that she flew over here in twenty hours.
“Who knows if you only met for five minutes? After all, the media caught it and even sent it to the company’s PR department. It was Senior Chen who got it first and sent it to Lingdan.” Zuo Baixuan replied truthfully.
Jiang Lingdan had been assigned to the PR department, so it was no surprise that the photo ended up in her hands.
But Luan Yenan had another question: “Why did Chen Huanyu send it to Jiang Lingdan?”
This question stumped Zuo Baixuan.
That’s right.
Jiang Lingdan was in the PR department, but what did this have to do with Chen Huanyu?
Moreover, at that time, they weren’t even using the company’s cloud service but a private “sponsor” account.
Could it be that Senior Chen deliberately used this method to reconcile with Lingdan?
Zuo Baixuan’s thoughts almost drifted away, but she turned back and pinched Luan Yenan’s cheek in frustration: “Are you deliberately changing the subject?”
Luan Yenan wasn’t annoyed. Instead, she sat up.
The shadow quickly covered the remaining light in front of Zuo Baixuan, making the dimness even darker. But Zuo Baixuan couldn’t escape the scene before her and hurriedly closed her eyes, her breathing becoming rapid.
“No wonder you’re in this state now.” Luan Yenan’s light laughter fell beside Zuo Baixuan’s ear.
“What state?” Zuo Baixuan didn’t know what state she was in, but she felt that Luan Yenan’s state was not good.
If this person was going to use last night’s method of apologizing to communicate with her again, they wouldn’t be able to go out today.
She wasn’t worried about Si Ruxin waiting too long at the door.
She… she just didn’t want Luan Yenan to succeed and wanted to find something to do quickly.
When she came in earlier, she had brought in the backpack from outside. Now was the perfect time to take advantage of the situation and break free from Luan Yenan’s embrace, burying herself in organizing things.
Luan Yenan leaned forward with the force of her escape, half-leaning on Zuo Baixuan: “The state where your nose isn’t your nose, and your eyes aren’t your eyes. Do you not like Si Ruxin?”
“Why should I like her? She’s an Omega, and so am I.” Zuo Baixuan retorted. But she didn’t deny her state.
Luan Yenan looked at Zuo Baixuan: “Even if you’re both Omegas, it doesn’t mean you can’t like each other, just like I’m a woman, and so are you.”
To Luan Yenan, being an Alpha or a Beta was just an additional attribute in this world.
Zuo Baixuan’s hands paused in organizing.
She turned to look at Luan Yenan, not understanding her words.
Although this world also had OO relationships, AA relationships, or even relationships like Jiang Lingdan’s, where an Omega and a Beta were attracted to each other.
But who would emphasize the first gender, emphasizing women and women like this?
Was she trying to say it was unrelated to pheromones?
Zuo Baixuan couldn’t decipher the meaning behind Luan Yenan’s words.
But Luan Yenan acted as if she had said the most ordinary thing, then got up, took a sip of the water Zuo Baixuan had brought, and got out of bed.
Her jade-like body reflected the faint light, smooth as fragile porcelain, but only Zuo Baixuan knew the strength contained within that porcelain.
Luan Yenan walked into the bathroom to wash up under Zuo Baixuan’s gaze.
Only when she could no longer see that artwork-like porcelain did Zuo Baixuan snap out of it and continue rummaging through her bag.
Actually, there wasn’t much to rummage through.
Apart from the laptop and marriage certificate in the backpack’s compartment, she had only brought two sets of sweatshirts and casual pants.
The only wearable clothes were the cotton coat she had worn yesterday.
But thinking about Si Ruxin’s gorgeous cheongsam and the obviously high-end coat, Zuo Baixuan admitted that her attitude earlier had indeed been “nose not nose, eyes not eyes.” and the reason was her competitive nature.
Si Ruxin always made such a grand entrance, while she always seemed disheveled.
At this moment, Luan Yenan came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe, seeing Zuo Baixuan staring at the clothes on the floor in a daze, and said, “Haven’t changed yet? That’s perfect. I ordered some clothes from the hotel yesterday. I’ll have them sent up now.”
…
Outside the room, Si Ruxin would never have imagined that she would finally enter following the room service.
And only as far as the living room.
The room service staff pushed in three racks of clothes and two carts of shoes into the master bedroom.
She stood at the door but didn’t even catch a glimpse of anyone.
Half a minute after the room service staff left, she even heard the sound of the master bedroom door locking.
Si Ruxin was both angry and amused.
This couple was truly well-matched, even in their ability to annoy people.
But she had a good attitude and simply sat at the bar, openly opening the fridge and snack cabinet, taking out all the good food and drinks.
Whether she ate them or not, she opened them one by one, passing the time while waiting.
By the time a bottle of mineral water was empty, Luan Yenan and Zuo Baixuan finally came out of the room.
Rarely did Luan Yenan accompany Zuo Baixuan in wearing bright colors, light purple and light blue.
The outfits were dresses, with Luan Yenan holding a coat and Zuo Baixuan a pure white down jacket. Overall, it wasn’t too formal.
It was a decent outfit that could either go to a casual evening event or visit a scenic spot.
“Sorry for the wait.” Luan Yenan said as she came out, her only explanation being this. Her gaze swept over Si Ruxin without a trace and then withdrew.
Indeed, Si Ruxin’s attire was always stunning, but after seeing it so many times, it was just that. The little white flower was more pleasing.
She looked good in anything.
Even better without clothes.
Luan Yenan’s gaze swept over the remnants of torn clothes on the floor.
Zuo Baixuan’s feet peeked out from under the skirt, kicking the rags to an inconspicuous spot, not realizing that this action made them even more noticeable.
Si Ruxin took this as the couple’s deliberate attempt to annoy her and pouted in dissatisfaction.
“I did wait for a long time. Could it be that the busy CEO has forgotten about our lunch appointment?” Si Ruxin tossed aside the snacks she had opened, her lips clean, clearly not having taken a single bite.
Luan Yenan held Zuo Baixuan’s hand: “We were too tired last night and slept a bit late.”
Zuo Baixuan’s face turned red in response.
Originally, this statement could have multiple meanings, but with the subtle change in Zuo Baixuan’s expression, it only had one meaning left.
Si Ruxin, however, seemed accustomed to the couple’s style of flaunting their affection and didn’t take it to heart. She followed her own rhythm and smiled: “It’s fine. It’s just that the reservation I made is almost overdue. We need to hurry.”
“Since it’s almost overdue, let’s change the location. I noticed you only booked two seats yesterday, so I just booked three. My wife is here too, so it’s not right to make you pay. You’ve always wanted me to treat you to a meal, so this one’s on us.”
“What a pleasant surprise, Sure.” Si Ruxin agreed readily, completely within expectations.
Seeing Si Ruxin agree so readily, Luan Yenan led Zuo Baixuan out.
She added: “But I didn’t expect you to come to my door this morning. It seems the hotel’s security system isn’t very robust.”
Si Ruxin knew what Luan Yenan meant and didn’t hide it: “It’s not the hotel’s fault. I asked your secretary to help me with the visitor registration.”
“Is that so?” Luan Yenan nodded, took out her phone, and dialed an international call: “You can fire Secretary Zhao.”
The HR manager, who had received an international call from the boss in the middle of the night, was a bit stunned: “Boss, did Secretary Zhao do something? Firing her so suddenly… what’s the reason?”
Luan Yenan replied: “No reason, give her compensation as usual. Our company is too small.”
Si Ruxin, leaning against the elevator, couldn’t help but laugh.
She didn’t feel any guilt about a secretary losing her job for helping her. Instead, she admired Luan Yenan’s decisiveness, which lived up to her reputation.
As a secretary, one indeed needed to be very observant and adaptable.
But this secretary clearly hadn’t understood the boss’s intentions and had even acted on her own, making things convenient for Si Ruxin.
This was a small matter now, but it could become a big issue later.
Luan Yenan trusted those she employed, but she also had strict standards for those she didn’t.
Zuo Baixuan hadn’t spoken the entire time, just watching Si Ruxin’s gaze fixed on Luan Yenan, feeling a sense of familiarity.
It was admiration, interest, curiosity, and worship.
No wonder Jiang Lingdan had said these were the beginnings of liking.
Zuo Baixuan’s criteria for judging whether Si Ruxin liked Luan Yenan, apart from pheromones, were these complex emotions.
As for pheromones, ever since Zuo Baixuan had rejected the mark again yesterday, Luan Yenan had completely restrained her pheromones. After putting on the suppressant patch in the bathroom earlier, even she, the marked partner, could hardly sense them, let alone Si Ruxin.
…
From the delayed lunch to the eventual arrival at the reserved restaurant, what they were eating was no longer lunch but dinner.
At the dining table, Si Ruxin spoke earnestly, continuously discussing information technology with Luan Yenan.
But some parts Luan Yenan didn’t explain herself, instead letting Zuo Baixuan handle them, while she quietly sipped her soup with a small spoon.
Si Ruxin interlaced her fingers and moved them a few times, sensing Zuo Baixuan’s charm during the simple conversation.
Or rather, she even saw a shadow of Luan Yenan in Zuo Baixuan.
Although they were completely different in appearance and personality, there was an inexplicable similarity.
Si Ruxin’s expression was calm as she took a sip of wine.
Looking back at Luan Yenan, she was actually yawning.
“Still not rested after sleeping so much?” Si Ruxin asked.
“Mainly sitting is a bit boring. Let’s get up and move around.” Luan Yenan said, looking at Zuo Baixuan. “How about we walk back together later? It’s not far, just some exercise.”
“Sure.” Zuo Baixuan nodded.
“Alright. Miss Si, my driver will take you back. We’ll head off first.” Luan Yenan said, taking Zuo Baixuan’s hand and standing up.
Si Ruxin crossed her legs, turning to look out the window: “Ah, being single is so pitiful. You two go ahead. I can’t bear to watch anymore.”
Only after the two left did she turn her gaze back to their retreating figures.
An Alpha like Luan Yenan was truly rare, not swayed by another Omega’s looks, not changed by pheromones, and not altered by the absence of her wife.
But an Omega like Zuo Baixuan was also deserving. She had real talent, changed her fate through education, and hadn’t become a delicate flower after marrying Luan Yenan.
“Tsk, no wonder the old man deliberately didn’t say anything and instead used this method to trick me into interacting with Luan Yenan. What a clever plan.” Si Ruxin sighed, lightly swirling her wine glass.
…
After leaving the restaurant, Luan Yenan and Zuo Baixuan put on their coats and walked hand in hand.
The unfamiliar scenery of a foreign country and the different skin colors and features of the people on the street brought a strange feeling.
Luan Yenan looked at Zuo Baixuan, feeling as if she had just traveled to this world.
Autumn had passed, and winter had arrived.
The temperature in New York had dropped these past two days, and the night felt even colder. Zuo Baixuan, who was sensitive to the cold, had her nose red from the chill, her breath visible in the air.
She tightly wrapped herself in her white down jacket, not like a little white flower, but more like a little white dumpling.
Luan Yenan didn’t speak, just quickened her pace, pulling Zuo Baixuan along.
Zuo Baixuan was pulled along, her entire day’s schedule delayed because of Luan Yenan and now accelerated because of her. Just like her plans, she always felt on the edge of losing control.
Back at the hotel, standing in the elevator.
Zuo Baixuan felt the environment was too quiet and casually asked: “This meal must have cost a lot, right?”
Luan Yenan smiled: “Are you trying to be the housekeeper?”
“What kind of housekeeper is this? I can’t be bothered with you.” Zuo Baixuan turned her head.
But Luan Yenan remembered something and said: “This meal is nothing. I’m planning to give you something. You can wear it when you accompany me to the summit.”
When they went out for dinner, she had a trusted bodyguard retrieve the necklace she had bought at the auction from the bank’s safe deposit box and place it in the hotel’s safe.
“When did I say I would accompany you to the summit?” Zuo Baixuan retorted.
Although she hadn’t considered when to return to the country, she planned to check the flight tickets tonight and leave directly if there was a suitable one.
“Si Ruxin will also attend.” Luan Yenan said. “The photos taken while walking on the road earlier might not have been noticed, but at the summit, someone will definitely take pictures.”
Zuo Baixuan hadn’t expected that besides appearing alongside Luan Yenan in domestic news, she would also leave her name on the international stage.
If that were the case, could she still divorce Luan Yenan?
What kind of scene would it be when they divorced, how much attention and uproar would it cause, and how many Omegas would be eager to take her place?
Zuo Baixuan lightly pursed her lips and followed Luan Yenan into the suite.
Feeling the warmth in the room, she took off her coat.
Turning around, she saw Luan Yenan holding a dazzling starry light.
No, it was a diamond necklace shimmering like starlight.
So, Luan Yenan had gone to the auction for this necklace.
Luan Yenan slowly approached her, placing the obviously expensive necklace around her neck. The elegant light blue dress tinted the diamonds with a light blue hue, but it couldn’t overshadow the necklace’s brilliance.
Even Zuo Baixuan, who usually didn’t care much for jewelry, was dazzled by the rows of diamonds.
“How much did this cost?”
“Three thousand eight hundred.” Luan Yenan replied.
Zuo Baixuan didn’t need to think hard to know that several zeros followed that number.
Luan Yenan was very satisfied with Zuo Baixuan’s reaction. When she first saw the necklace, she had imagined how beautiful Zuo Baixuan would look wearing it.
Luan Yenan took another step closer to Zuo Baixuan, her left hand gently caressing the end of the necklace, following the tassels down to Zuo Baixuan’s back, where she suddenly pulled down the zipper of the dress.
The sudden move scared Zuo Baixuan, who just wanted to escape. Was this person starting to act so brazenly?
“What are you doing?” Zuo Baixuan pressed her hand against the zipper.
“The promotional tagline for this necklace has a note: it must be worn directly against the skin to bring out the diamond’s luster.” Luan Yenan explained.
Zuo Baixuan’s face gradually turned red, but she wasn’t so easily fooled.
“The dress’s base color ruins the diamond’s beauty. Try it, just take a look.” Luan Yenan said, her fingers still exerting force.
Zuo Baixuan didn’t know what came over her. Under Luan Yenan’s gaze, it was as if she was under a spell, unable to move.
The zipper of the high-end dress provided by the hotel wasn’t well-made. The zipper head broke, but the zipper was eventually pulled down.
Her skin came into contact with the cool diamond necklace.
Zuo Baixuan’s muscles contracted. She didn’t feel cold; it was the diamonds that were too cool.
She gave Luan Yenan a light glare.
But the look Luan Yenan returned was scorching.
It was unclear whether she was admiring the necklace or the person before her.
Zuo Baixuan’s heart was pounding wildly. She took a light breath, unsure if it was because they were in a foreign land, but it felt as if the shackles on her body had been unlocked. The restlessness wasn’t just coming from Luan Yenan.
She said in a suppressed voice: “Stop looking.”
But her half-hearted resistance couldn’t stop Luan Yenan.
