Weak A, She Just Wants to Live to the End (GL) - Chapter 2

Lin Anan’s heart pounded as she took two steps back, reaching up to pull at her mask.

She was all too familiar with this feeling; it was the effect of the suppressant wearing off.

But usually, after she injected a suppressant, it would last for most of the day. She had only been out for an hour, so why was the suppressant already starting to fade?

Lin Anan looked around. Besides the security guard at the gate in the distance, there was no one else around. It seemed the only reason for the suppressant wearing off so quickly was the girl in front of her.

She had to leave immediately, or the consequences of the suppressant completely wearing off would be unthinkable.

Lin Anan tried to suppress the heat in her heart, but she couldn’t help but take another breath of the girl’s pheromones. Then she took a small step forward again and placed the bouquet in her hands beside the girl. “Ms. Xi Nan, I’m leaving the flowers here. I’m going now. Please remember to sign for them and leave a five-star review.”

After putting down the flowers, she quickly turned and walked a few steps forward. Once she was out of the range of the minty scent, she let out a sigh of relief and slowed her pace.

But as soon as she took a step, she heard a “thud” behind her.

She turned her head and saw the rainbow roses she had just placed next to the girl were now lying on the ground by the girl’s feet like trash. One of the petals was already about to fall off, and the sight made her heart ache.

Such an expensive bouquet, if she sold it, it would surely fetch a lot of money, right?

Rich people just didn’t know the hardships of life.

She was so unlucky to have transmigrated into such a poor celebrity. The 18th-tier celebrities on TV lived such good lives, why was she so different?

What was comforting was that she had transmigrated at an early stage of the original character’s story. She had heard Wu Xixi say that if she followed the original plot, the fate of her cannon fodder character would be miserable.

Because she had pestered the male protagonist and framed the female protagonist, she was eventually blacklisted from the entertainment industry and married a violent thug. The ending was predictable.

Fortunately, she still had time to change her fate. The original character also had a face that was much prettier than her own. Although it was a round face that wasn’t very popular, her willow-leaf eyebrows and apricot eyes, along with her slender figure, made her look very obedient and likable. With a bit of work, she should be able to make some money to survive.

It was just that being an Alpha was so expensive.

Lin Anan thought about it and still couldn’t bear to let go of the money. After all, she was in her susceptible period, and she didn’t have enough suppressants, so she couldn’t go out to make money. The money Wu Xixi earned was only enough for their daily expenses.

She turned and walked back to the girl, reaching out to pick up the bouquet, and said brazenly, “Ms. Xi Nan, are you really not going to take these flowers?”

“Then can… can I have them? It’s a shame to throw them away anyway…”

The girl turned her head, looked at her, and gave an expressionless “Mmm.”

“Thank you, Ms. Xi Nan.” Lin Anan thanked her and quickly took out the bag she had used to carry the flowers. She put the bouquet of rainbow roses inside and put the bag back on her back, preparing to take it back to the flower shop to sell it to the owner.

After putting the flowers back on her back, she was about to turn and leave, but she felt it would be rude to just walk away after taking the girl’s flowers.

She looked at the girl, who had just taken another gulp of wine, and said with concern, “Miss, do you live in this residential area? Maybe you should call your family to pick you up. It’s not safe for you to be outside like this.”

And your pheromone scent is so pleasant, and now you’re so drunk you’re mistaking me for someone else.

Before the girl could answer, a surprised male voice came from the side: “Lin Anan, why are you here?”

Lin Anan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Bai Yunshuang walking toward her, holding the hand of a girl. The girl had fair skin and a beautiful, charming face. Her long, wavy hair flowed behind her, swaying gently as she walked, making her look like a beautiful little elf of the night.

“I’m all bundled up like this, and you still recognize me, how impressive!” Lin Anan answered, unable to resist glancing at the girl next to Bai Yunshuang. She then looked away with a sigh.

She was so unlucky today. Not only did she run into her ex-boyfriend, but his current girlfriend was eight hundred times more attractive than she was. This was too much.

Although she had only met Bai Yunshuang once and had no feelings for him, she couldn’t give in without a fight. She really felt like a Cinderella covered in ashes. Oh no, she was worse than Cinderella; Cinderella was at least a hidden rich girl, while she was truly cannon fodder.

Lin Anan cleared her throat to hide her embarrassment, and just as she was about to explain why she was there, she heard Bai Yunshuang speak as he walked. “Don’t tell me you followed me all the way here.”

“Lin Anan, I’m telling you, don’t go looking for trouble with Xinxin. We’re never getting back together, not ever. Don’t be so wishful!”

Bai Yunshuang’s girlfriend was named Xinxin?

The female protagonist was Tang Xin, so the person next to Bai Yunshuang was the female protagonist?

The female protagonist was indeed different. No wonder, how could a supporting character in this world be so beautiful? So she was the real deal. She was going to be an A-list actress later on; of course she was beautiful.

But! The one sitting here was also very good. With her small mouth and nose, she would look great if she got dolled up.

Thinking of this, Lin Anan glanced at the girl next to her and found that she was still staring blankly at the air in front of her, but her gaze was no longer unfocused. It seemed she was looking in the direction of Bai Yunshuang.

Did the girl also know Bai Yunshuang?

Could she also be one of Bai Yunshuang’s ex-girlfriends?

Forget it, when the big shots fight, I, a little cannon fodder, should quickly get out of the way and not fight with them.

Lin Anan cleared her throat again and patiently explained, “I didn’t follow you, Bai Yunshuang, and I won’t cause any trouble for your Xinxin. I’m just here to deliver something. I was just about to leave.”

“Deliver something?” Bai Yunshuang walked closer with Tang Xin, and said with disgust, “Are you so poor you have to deliver things?”

“How embarrassing. From now on, don’t you dare say we know each other!”

Lin Anan: “…”

I’m so angry. The reason I’m out delivering things is because of you. If you hadn’t bad-mouthed me to the company, my advertising contracts wouldn’t have been snatched away, and I wouldn’t be so poor I can’t even afford suppressants.

Wu Xixi, what kind of trash male protagonist did you write? He’s so annoying.

Lin Anan was about to turn and leave, when Tang Xin, who was next to Bai Yunshuang, suddenly spoke. “Xiao Xi, why are you here?”

The girl didn’t say anything, she just paused, then lifted the wine bottle in her hand and took another sip.

Bai Yunshuang finally looked at the girl, who was half-sitting in the shadows. His eyes brightened almost imperceptibly, and he said in surprise, “Xinxin, you know her?”

“She’s not the one you were talking about…”

“Mmm,” Tang Xin pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

“Oh… so it’s her.” Bai Yunshuang sniffed the air and said with a smirk, “A mint-scented Omega? How alluring. She used to be so strong, I thought she’d turn into a formidable Alpha. I never expected her to differentiate into an Omega.”

Bai Yunshuang let go of Tang Xin’s hand and walked in front of the girl, scoffing, “I told Tang Xin a long time ago that she wouldn’t be happy with you. Now that you’ve differentiated into an Omega, are you still not going to let go?”

Lin Anan finally understood what Bai Yunshuang was talking about.

Although she hadn’t read the original text, she had heard Wu Xixi tell her the gist of the story. She remembered Wu Xixi saying that the male protagonist Bai Yunshuang was an Alpha, so Tang Xin must be an Omega, after all, Wu Xixi had written a romantic, sweet novel.

The original Lin Anan in the novel was abandoned by Bai Yunshuang because she differentiated into an Alpha. So this “Xiao Xi” must have also suddenly differentiated into an Omega and had to break up with the female protagonist.

It was already difficult for a female Alpha and a female Omega to be together, and their pheromones were hard to blend. She never expected this “Xiao Xi” to differentiate into an Omega, which would make it even harder for them to be together.

But this girl shouldn’t be an important character, right?

She remembered Wu Xixi’s analysis of the characters in the novel, and there was no female Omega named “Xiao Xi” or “Xi Nan” who had a entanglement with the female protagonist.

And she couldn’t be this unlucky, to meet so many important characters on her first time out. Wu Xixi had said that she hadn’t planned to develop the cannon fodder character of Lin Anan’s too much.

The breeze blew, and the girl remained silent. She just looked up at Tang Xin again, then lowered her head.

Seeing that the girl was ignoring him, Bai Yunshuang pushed his luck. “Now that you’re an Omega, you can’t give Xinxin happiness. I advise you to quickly let go, and don’t be like this one next to you, clinging on so shamelessly.”

Hey? Why did he have to drag her into this?

Lin Anan protested, “Bai Yunshuang, when have I ever clung to you shamelessly? I told you, I’m just here to deliver something.”

Bai Yunshuang turned his head and glanced at Lin Anan, shrugging nonchalantly. “Fine, if you say you didn’t, then you didn’t. Just don’t let me see you around Xinxin again. And of course, don’t be around me either.”

Lin Anan had a retort on the tip of her tongue, but she thought it was unnecessary to fight with the protagonists. It was more important for her to go back and take her suppressant, because the heat in her heart seemed to be getting stronger, and it was vaguely accompanied by a sense of anxiety.

And after Bai Yunshuang got closer, she didn’t know if it was the original Lin Anan’s reaction to Bai Yunshuang’s pheromones, but she felt that nauseating feeling coming back again.

Lin Anan adjusted the strap of the bag on her shoulder, and just as she turned to leave, the girl behind her grabbed her hand. The girl used Lin Anan’s support to stand up, and said in a weak voice, “Wait, I’ll walk with you.”

Lin Anan was stunned for a moment. The girl then passed her, holding her hand and walking forward.

Bai Yunshuang teased from behind, “Oh? So you two know each other? That works out…”

“Bai Yunshuang, I can’t believe you’re this kind of male protagonist. Just shut up!” Lin Anan couldn’t take it anymore and snapped back.

Bai Yunshuang didn’t care about Lin Anan’s gibberish, but he whistled mischievously.

The girl led Lin Anan all the way to the parking lot next to the residential area. Lin Anan thought the girl was just pretending to hold her hand for Tang Xin’s benefit, but all the way there, the girl didn’t let go.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Lin Anan finally pulled her hand away awkwardly. “They can’t see us here, so I’m going back now.”

The girl leaned against the car door, her eyes a little red. She said in a low voice, “I’ve been drinking, I can’t drive.”

Lin Anan hesitated. “But my car is still at the entrance of the Shuxiang residential area.”

The girl looked up. “What car?”

Lin Anan was a little embarrassed: “…a bicycle.”

The girl paused, pressed the car key, opened the car door, and leaned in to pull out a hundred-dollar bill and the keys. She held them out to Lin Anan. “How about you drive me back first, and then you can take a cab back?”

Seeing that Lin Anan was still hesitating, she added, “Bai Yunshuang might still be at the residential area entrance right now…”

Lin Anan looked at the money in the girl’s hand, then at the girl, and finally reached out and took the keys and the money.

Forget it, she’d just drive her back first.

Otherwise, if she went back and ran into Bai Yunshuang, he would just mock her again.

She could probably save a good amount of money from this hundred-dollar bill, and she also took the girl’s flowers. No matter how she looked at it, she was the one who came out ahead.

And now that she was away from Bai Yunshuang, she felt that dizziness seemed to be a lot better. She should be able to hold on for a little longer. It was just that the heat in her heart was still going up and down.

As soon as Lin Anan and the girl got into the car and closed the door, Lin Anan regretted it.

She had forgotten that the car was a confined space. After closing the door, the entire car was filled with the girl’s mint scent. The single mask she was wearing couldn’t block it at all. The minty scent surrounded her, making the heat in her heart rise another notch.

And she kept forgetting that she was an Alpha, and the girl was an Omega. Even if she was weak, she was still in her susceptible period. Wu Xixi had told her not to be alone with an Omega, whether male or female, during her susceptible period.

But now she had taken the money and gotten into the car, so it would be too awkward to back out.

It wasn’t that the minty scent was uncomfortable; on the contrary, it was very soothing. It was just that smelling the scent made her feel restless, as if her entire body was burning with anxiety.

Lin Anan had no choice but to roll down all four windows and fan herself with her hand. “Where do you live?”

“Nanyu Garden.” The girl was sitting in the back seat with her eyes closed, hugging a pillow. When she heard Lin Anan’s question, she opened her eyes and answered, then asked with a puzzled look, “What? Are you hot?”

Then the girl finally understood what was going on. She took a small sniff of the air. “You… have you differentiated?”

“Mmm,” Lin Anan answered casually, then entered “Nanyu Garden” into her phone’s navigation app and started the car.

The girl pressed on, “Are you a Beta?”

Lin Anan guiltily answered “Mmm” again, then forced herself to focus on driving and not to smell the minty scent in the car.

The girl seemed to relax and closed her eyes. Her voice was so quiet it was like a whisper: “No wonder your pheromones are so faint. You’re so good.”

Lin Anan didn’t know what to say. While suppressing the heat in her heart, she gave another perfunctory “Mmm.”

The girl was silent for a while, then suddenly said in a small, almost self-mocking voice, “But when I smell your Beta pheromones, my heart feels so comfortable and calm. I must be crazy.”

Lin Anan didn’t dare to answer, but her heart tightened slightly.
