After an Alluring Alpha Provokes an Unhinged Omega 25

Chapter 25: Desire

The sticky air was like glue poured over them.

That pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be staring her down. Jiang Mi didn’t back down. If she weren’t so familiar with this face, she might have thought at this moment that this Yan Wei was a fake.

If she couldn’t smell Yan Wei’s scent, she would definitely have thought that Yan Wei was teasing her.

In fact, the brandy pheromones were becoming clearer. When an AO was in heat, their pheromone scent was slightly different from normal times. In addition to the intensity, there was also a hint of a clean, salty sea breeze.

Jiang Mi took a deep breath. There was only one step between them. No matter who moved closer, they would touch each other in the next step. The atmosphere was abnormally tense. Even a needle drop would stir up a thousand waves.

“How do I try?”

What’s the worst that could happen? Break the sky? How much worse could it get?

Jiang Mi’s well-controlled pheromones showed a slight tendency to be let loose. Her glands throbbed like a pulse. She was taking the initiative to conquer Yan Wei.

Yan Wei’s legs showed signs of weakening. She had known from the beginning that Jiang Mi could never be an ordinary Alpha. She could barely withstand the pheromones before her heat, let alone what would happen when Jiang Mi’s heat truly arrived. What would she become?

“What do you think? Do you need me to teach you again?” Due to her lack of strength, Yan Wei’s voice was tinged with laziness.

Jiang Mi was silent for a moment, then smiled. “Like the last kissing scene?”

Jiang Mi was also testing the waters.

She stared at Yan Wei’s lips, recalling their softness and fierceness. She moved forward, grabbing Yan Wei’s fingers with her backhand. Let’s just say I’m going crazy, she thought.

She pushed Yan Wei back, pinning her against the door.

“I’ll try. Teacher Yan, see if I’m doing it right.”

Yan Wei narrowed her eyes, her gaze deep. Jiang Mi probably didn’t know how eye-catching her feigned composure and flushed cheeks were at this moment.

She didn’t move or speak, only her heart was beating violently.

The moment Jiang Mi kissed her, Yan Wei shivered violently. The inexperienced Alpha didn’t use her tongue, but gently bit open her lips with her teeth. It was a little painful, but for some reason, she felt that this feeling was extremely good.

She opened her lips, letting Jiang Mi practice how to retaliate against her.

She was pinned against the door, and she subconsciously tilted her head back, exposing her neck. It was too comfortable, so comfortable that she couldn’t bear to call a stop.

This kiss lasted for a while.

What a pity.

Yan Wei’s eyes were full of unwilling regret.

Unfortunately, Jiang Mi was out of time.

Footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. Jiang Mi opened her eyes and saw Yan Wei’s reddened eyes, her heart slightly numb. She looked up and listened carefully to the movement outside. The next second, Yan Wei reached out, her thumb wiping her lips.

“Is anyone in there? Weiwei?”

Jiang Mi heard Surui’s voice. She looked at Yan Wei and asked in a low voice, “Is that Surui? So you knew what was going on today?”

Yan Wei leaned against the door and turned to look at herself in the mirror. Her lipstick had been eaten by Jiang Mi, and it was now a different color. She didn’t answer directly, but said to Jiang Mi, “Take the suppressor and come find me after the red carpet.”

The door opened.

Behind Surui were the makeup artist and stylist. They couldn’t help but show surprise when they saw Jiang Mi. Surui’s reaction was calmer. After all, she had already found out the situation from that anti-fan just now.

It was just another common, dirty trick in this industry.

But seeing Yan Wei surprised her even more. It seemed that Yan Wei had no intention of hiding it at all, otherwise she would have dealt with her kiss-swollen lips first.

Surui then discreetly sized up Jiang Mi again. This little Alpha is quite capable.

This was considered having a strong backer.

“Miss Jiang, you have eight minutes.” Surui walked closer, patted Jiang Mi’s shoulder, and her tone became much friendlier. “Don’t worry, they will help you.”

Jiang Mi had many questions, such as how Yan Wei knew she was here, and what the meaning of what just happened was. But now was not a good time.

Her gaze met Yan Wei’s. Yan Wei said slowly, “Walk out with your back straight. Crush her, then come back.”

Surui heard this. Yan Wei usually wasn’t vengeful. The people, things, and matters she cared about in this world were few and far between. But once she set her eyes on something… she had said, Yan Wei usually wasn’t vengeful.

Once she had this thought, it was no longer revenge, but annihilation.

But Jiang Mi’s spirits were lifted. The thought of giving up, which had been rising, instantly vanished.

She still had time, and even people to help her. She hadn’t lost her chance yet. She took a breath and stood in the restroom, facing the bright mirror, her gaze becoming firm.

Yan Wei was right. If she gave up just like that today, the person who had plotted against her would only be more smug. Besides, it wasn’t time to give up yet.

She glanced at Yan Wei and nodded.

**

Yan Wei was sitting on the sofa in the break room, holding a copy of Mind magazine, flipping through it quickly, which showed that her patience for waiting was running out.

This was why Surui always reminded Yan Wei to go out at around the right time.

Apart from filming, Yan Wei’s patience was very poor.

But there were only a few minutes left until Jiang Mi was done. She didn’t know what kind of spell Jiang Mi had cast on Yan Wei. She hadn’t noticed anything unusual recently, so why had she suddenly become so impatient?

Her thoughts paused. It seemed she could understand a little… unsatisfied desire?

Surui silently withdrew her gaze and, after a few seconds, said, “Weiwei, if you have any ideas, you can let me know in advance so I can arrange for PR early.”

Yan Wei looked over, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Surui tentatively said, “I mean, if you have any thoughts of dating…”

“Dating?” The word was clearly unfamiliar to Yan Wei. She thought for two seconds, then lowered her head and continued to read the magazine. “No.”

Surui let out a breath and nodded. That made things much easier. As long as they weren’t photographed, it was fine.

Yan Wei wasn’t young anymore. It was normal to have needs. Perhaps this Jiang Mi really had something special. But she still had to remind the other person’s team to be careful not to get caught.

At this moment, the sound of knocking on the door once again broke the sound of pages turning. The stylist pushed the door open and came in. “Sister Surui, this is the clothes Teacher Jiang just changed out of. The door over there is locked, you see…”

Surui took them and placed them on an empty chair nearby. The gown Jiang Mi had changed into today was one of Yan Wei’s backup options. Fortunately, the size difference between the two was not that big.

“How should we deal with the anti-fan? Or should we leave it to Miss Jiang?”

Her pale lotus-colored nails gently scratched the paper. Yan Wei said impatiently, “Apology video. Home, school, work, post one for each.”

Surui considered, “People’s ability to handle pressure isn’t that great these days. Won’t it be too…”

Harsh?

That woman was only in her early twenties. Upon investigation, she might even be a student. After being caught, the girl had recorded an apology video in tears. No one would want this stain to be known by everyone.

Yan Wei laughed calmly and closed the magazine. “Then how is your ability to handle pressure?”

Surui: “…”

Surui took a breath. Of course, she couldn’t give up her career for a fool who had been used.

Yan Wei had always acted based on her own likes and dislikes. If she really went crazy, she was capable of doing something like mutual destruction—Yan Wei had done it before.

But she wasn’t Yan Wei. One had to leave a way out for oneself and for others. A sensitive place like a school still needed to be handled with consideration.

Surui brought up some good news, “I’ve passed on your words to Qin Yao’s company. They just sent a message saying that there’s already a result, and it will satisfy Miss Jiang.”

Yan Wei hummed in response. Surui saw that her mood was on the verge of exploding. “I’ll go to the front desk and take a look.”

After Surui left, Yan Wei tossed the magazine onto the table. She rubbed her temples. She hadn’t slept well these past few days, and just now, Jiang Mi’s pheromones had agitated her. It had taken a long time to recover, and she had expended too much energy. She was very dizzy now.

But faintly, she smelled that familiar scent in the air again.

It was coming from the bag with Jiang Mi’s clothes.

The smell of milk and a sweet, light perfume.

Jiang Mi didn’t use much perfume. Today, perhaps because of the event, she had applied a little bit of a refreshing sweet scent, which was entangled with the milky smell, like a milk candy.

That scent was now faintly drifting into her breath. She took a shallow breath, as if the milk candy was on her tongue, melting with the saliva in her mouth and flowing deep into her body.

Her gaze fell on the bag.

From her line of sight, something was stuck to the clothes.

Normally, something like this would never have caught Yan Wei’s eye, but it was strange at this moment. She curiously walked forward. The restriction of the gown only allowed her to bend down slightly and gently peel the round patch from the damp long dress.

The skin-colored suppressor patch had been tightly pressed against Jiang Mi’s glands. Even though the material of the suppressor patch had been soaked through, it was still covered in Jiang Mi’s scent.

Realizing this, Yan Wei’s fingertips felt as if they were pinching a piece of red-hot iron, intentionally or unintentionally scalding her pulse into a twitch.

She stared at the suppressor patch in silence for a few seconds, as if disgusted by her own reaction. She irritably threw the thing into the trash can.

But her head felt even dizzier.

It was probably because she had been exposed to too much of Jiang Mi’s pheromones today, so the effect was more severe than before.

Her temples throbbed, and every artery in her body was beating fiercely. She urgently needed something to soothe her.

The exquisitely carved face appeared in her mind, the eyes, the tip of her nose, her lips… the white teeth moistened by saliva—

This time, she felt that even her glands were starting to become restless.

**

One minute before the red carpet began, Zhao Jia arrived late.

Seeing the silver, waist-cinching gown on Jiang Mi, it was as if it had been ironed onto her body. The lines were tight and smooth, without a single curve. It was a halter-neck design, with a deep V down to her sternum. A silver diamond necklace was deeply embedded between her peach-like breasts. Her back was smooth and fair, and even without foundation powder, it was dazzlingly white.

And the makeup was so perfect that no flaws could be found.

The entire look was a perfect match for Jiang Mi.

Zhao Jia had seen Jiang Mi look beautiful before, but this was the first time she had seen Jiang Mi in this kind of style. She couldn’t help but be stunned. With just one look, she knew that this red carpet, they had definitely won.

Not to mention the sudden gathering of flashing lights under the red carpet, and the unfamiliarity and surprise of everyone when they saw Jiang Mi.

Her keen sense of smell detected a “business opportunity.”

As Jiang Mi was signing her name on the red carpet under the spotlight, she transferred the remaining budget for Jiang Mi’s gown to three major influencer accounts.

She also prepared some funds for the hot search.

But this money might not be needed. The company wasn’t stupid. At least at this point, they should have a basic understanding—Jiang Mi had market value.

And Qin Yao was not an absolute cash cow.

Just after walking off the red carpet, Jiang Mi could already feel the difference around her.

She found that when she made eye contact with people, she saw more goodwill on their faces.

Zhao Jia draped a tasseled shawl over Jiang Mi’s shoulders. Hearing about what had happened while she was away, she was shocked. Then, hearing that Yan Wei had helped her, and that even this outfit was Yan Wei’s handiwork, she felt both lucky and melancholic for a moment.

“I was in a hurry and left my phone in the car. Coincidentally, there was a problem with the hotel room door, and I couldn’t open it. It took a lot of time.” Jiang Mi always reported the good and not the bad. She didn’t know how much of what she said was true, but if even Yan Wei was alerted, it definitely wasn’t as simple as just spilling some water.

“Did you see the person?”

“No.” Jiang Mi: “I just know they were wearing purple.”

Actually, she was a bit distracted. She had been in a hurry to get on the red carpet just now and hadn’t applied a suppressor patch, let alone a suppressor. Although the feeling of arousal had mostly subsided under the stress, she still felt uneasy.

Zhao Jia’s face was cold. “Qin Yao’s support color is purple.”

This couldn’t be used as evidence. To find this person, unless they called the police, DK might not fully cooperate with them.

And calling the police was not a good move for them. It might even affect the current crew.

Jiang Mi’s mood wasn’t high either. She said slowly, “Teacher Yan might have a clue.”

Zhao Jia picked up, “Then I’ll ask.”

“I’ll go.” Jiang Mi let out a shallow, hot breath. Her face was a little hot. “I have something else to do anyway.”

Zhao Jia was silent for a moment and didn’t say anything. After all, Yan Wei had really helped them a lot.

Jiang Mi’s mood was still a bit complicated. After calming down and thinking about it, what could a kiss mean?

Did Yan Wei like her?

Even if she did, she still felt that this kind of liking could easily be erased by Yan Wei. Or rather, Yan Wei could withdraw at any time. She could even push her away with just a word if she was unhappy one day.

She didn’t like being an insignificant object in front of Yan Wei.

Jiang Mi stopped and looked at the break room in front of her.

There was no name on Yan Wei’s break room, only a gold-stamped logo of Shenhai. It should be Yan Wei’s exclusive room at DK.

—”Come find me after the red carpet.”

The woman’s hoarse and cool voice drilled into her ears, and even now, recalling it made her heart tingle.

Jiang Mi’s hand stopped one centimeter away from the door. She knew that something would definitely happen after she went in.

But she suddenly thought, why did she have to be so submissive in front of Yan Wei? When Yan Wei said it just now, she had subconsciously not even thought of refusing.

She didn’t want to be the kind of person who “comes when called and goes when dismissed” in front of Yan Wei.

She wanted to be an important person.

For the first time, Jiang Mi was certain of this.

She wanted to be—an important person to Yan Wei.

**

A few minutes later, in the break room on the other side of the door, Yan Wei was leaning on the sofa, looking at the message on her phone. Her eyelashes were lowered, and she squinted slightly.

Both messages were from Surui.

[Zhao Jia is asking about the anti-fan. Should I tell her?]

[She also asked me to convey her thanks. Also, Jiang Mi has something to do and won’t be coming over. She said she will thank you in person when she gets back to the set.]

After her patience ran out, even the corners of her eyes were slightly red, but her fingertips were curled and white.

Yan Wei smiled silently.

Jiang Mi, well done.
