Chapter 42: Fated Omega, Love Me Again Part 2

“You still dare curse my daughter to ten years in prison? You little slut! Someone, hold her down!”

Two bodyguards stepped forward, grabbing her arms on both sides.

Liu Xuan looked at her face, and a vicious idea arose in her heart: as long as she scarred up this little bitch’s face, Qingqing wouldn’t be bewitched by her anymore, and she could vent her fury thoroughly.

Just as she raised her hand, someone rushed in. A figure sprinted forward and shoved her away.

“Who?!” Liu Xuan stumbled back a few steps and looked up at the newcomer. It was Xiao Luo standing before her.

“Sister-in-law, so much time has passed. Why are you still provoking her?”

Liu Xuan said angrily, “What business is it of yours? Get out of my way!” She was really fed up with Xiao Luo meddling in others’ affairs.

Seeing that Xiao Luo wouldn’t budge, she said to the remaining bodyguards, “Someone, take her outside!”

The bodyguards were all Liu Xuan’s people and only listened to her. So they all walked toward Xiao Luo.

A tall woman in a suit stepped forward. Her phoenix eyes swept sharply over them, releasing the alpha’s oppressive pressure, and she coldly uttered one word: “Scram!”

The bodyguards were all betas, unable to endure the alpha’s pheromone pressure. One of them went weak in the knees and fell to his knees.

Seeing this situation, Liu Xuan looked at Xia Lingyu with some terror.

She was an omega, one who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Now, without a husband or bodyguards to protect her, her imposing aura immediately deflated.

“Madam, please take your bodyguards and leave this place at once.” Although Xia Lingyu’s tone was light, it conveyed a sense of murderous intent.

Just then, another person rushed in from outside. It was the transmigrated woman, Xiao Qing. Seeing this scene, Xiao Qing was startled, and her gaze immediately shot to Leng Youran on the ground.

Seeing the slap mark on the female lead’s face, she couldn’t help but shudder, instantly associating it with her own future ending.

She hurriedly ran over, shoved away the bodyguards on both sides, and grabbed Leng Youran’s arm, asking as gently as she could, “How are you now?”

Leng Youran shot her a glance full of repulsion and even disgust, then angrily pushed her away. “Don’t touch me!”

Xiao Qing turned around to look at Liu Xuan, Xiao Luo, and the others. Her face dark, she stood up and said, “Mom, Little Aunt, what exactly are you trying to do? Why would you come and cause trouble at someone’s studio?”

Xiao Luo spread her hands innocently. “Don’t drag me into this. It was your mom who got people to come trash the place, and she even wanted to hit someone.”

So that was it.

Xiao Qing’s train of thought was rather bizarre. Not only did she not feel angry, but she actually felt a faint excitement in her heart.

Though the plot had deviated a lot, it was still being pulled back somewhat. In the future, she’d have an excuse to get close to the female lead, then find ways to make amends. Over the course of their interactions, the female lead would surely lower her guard and realize she was different from before…

She composed herself and said solemnly to Leng Youran, “Miss Leng, rest assured, for what happened today, I will definitely give you a satisfactory compensation.”

Leng Youran rose to her feet and straightened her clothes. She said coldly, “No need. Please leave this place immediately. Xiao Qing, I repeat once more: your detention had nothing to do with me, and I don’t owe you anything.”

Xiao Qing said eagerly, “Of course.”

Leng Youran glanced at her and said, “So please, you and your family, do not appear before me again. You’ve already caused me great trouble today. I won’t call the police, but I don’t want there to be a next time.”

“Alright, alright, alright…” Xiao Qing couldn’t take her eyes off the female lead, thinking to herself that indeed, the female lead was beautiful even when angry.

Feeling that scorching gaze, Leng Youran felt a surge of disgust.

At that moment, another person entered from outside. Seeing the studio in such a state, she said in a flustered tone, “Youran, what’s going on?”

Seeing that her fiancée was also surrounded by people, including Xiao Qing.

Liao Xueyuan’s anger surged. She hurriedly pushed Xiao Qing hard, then stood in front of Leng Youran, cursing, “Xiao Qing! You shameless woman! You still dare to cause trouble with my fiancée!”

Seeing that it was Liao Xueyuan, Xiao Qing’s good mood instantly vanished.

She truly didn’t understand why Liao Xueyuan, such a useless and ordinary alpha, was the other female lead. Every time she saw Liao Xueyuan, she felt that this person was defiling her goddess.

A perfect omega like Leng Youran deserved a better alpha—for instance, the current her.

Leng Youran was definitely being controlled by the plot. She would definitely find a way to free the goddess, to make the goddess awaken her self-awareness!

Seeing Xiao Qing still lost in her own fantasies and unable to extricate herself, Xiao Luo couldn’t help but speak up: “Alright, Big Niece, let’s go out first and let Miss Leng calm down.”

Xiao Qing found this reasonable, so she said softly to Leng Youran, “Miss Leng, today’s incident is all because of me. I’m sorry…”

Then she chattered on and on until Leng Youran frowned in annoyance, and only then did she lead Liu Xuan out the door.

Xiao Luo was about to leave with Xia Lingyu when Leng Youran behind her said, “Thank you, Miss Xiao Luo.”

“You’re welcome.” Xiao Luo turned her head, winked at the two of them, and said, “If anything happens in the future, you can contact me.”

…

On the way home, Xiao Qing, her face ashen, continuously complained to Liu Xuan: “Mom, it’s all your fault. Why did you go provoke her? I already said it wasn’t Youran’s fault, yet you still went to cause trouble with her. I think you didn’t want to vent my anger at all. You’re just jealous that she’s an SSS-Level omega.”

Hearing her daughter say this, Liu Xuan’s eyes suddenly widened, and she said, somewhat hurt, “Qingqing, how can you say that?”

Xiao Qing snorted coldly and stared at Liu Xuan frostily. “Isn’t it? Not only that, you’re jealous that she’s better-looking than you, so you wanted to claw her face up. To put it plainly, you’re just a jealous and mean-spirited woman.”

“Ahhh—” Liu Xuan couldn’t take it anymore and gave her a hard slap. “You talk about me, you dare talk about me like that—I’m your mother!”

In the past, although Xiao Qing was mischievous, she was still very good to her only biological mother, even lying in her arms and acting spoiled. Now, she was actually saying this to her for the sake of another woman.

Liu Xuan couldn’t stand it anymore. Even if it was her own precious daughter, she needed to give her a slap to vent her anger.

But the slap seemed rather heavy. Xiao Qing was struck dizzy and saw stars, her face burning fiercely. She touched it with her hand and saw blood on her fingers.

Xiao Qing stared wide-eyed at the blood on her hand. “Blood, blood…”

Liu Xuan panicked and hurriedly asked, “Qingqing, what’s wrong, Qingqing?”

Xiao Qing rolled her eyes back. “I faint at the sight of blood!”

And then she fainted.

Seeing her like this, Liu Xuan’s first reaction was to catch her and say to the driver, “To the hospital!”

Afterward, she found it somewhat strange. Her daughter never used to faint at the sight of blood. What was going on now?

Connecting all these strange behaviors of Xiao Qing’s, Liu Xuan felt that the current Xiao Qing was becoming more and more of a stranger.

When Xiao Qing woke up, she found herself lying in the hospital, with no one beside her.

She touched her face, got out of bed, and went to the mirror in the bathroom to look. Damn it, her face actually still had a bloody scratch mark on it.

After a while, her phone rang. It was Xiao Luo calling.

After answering, she asked expressionlessly, “What is it, Little Aunt?”

On the other end, Xiao Luo laughed, “Sister-in-law went home first, so I’ll come pick you up later.”

This remark reminded Xiao Qing that Liu Xuan had slapped her and even left her behind. She was furious in her heart. Even Xiao Luo, a cannon-fodder character, was better than Liu Xuan, her own mother.

She made up her mind never to pay any attention to this mother again and couldn’t help but curse Liu Xuan fiercely in her heart.

Not long after, Xiao Luo arrived. She walked in, saw her face, and exclaimed in surprise, “Oh dear, Big Niece, what happened to your face?”

At the mention of this, Xiao Qing got angry. “Don’t even bring it up. It’s all because of that mother of mine!”

Xiao Luo’s expression held a bit of sympathy as she said, “You’ve only been home for one day, and Sister-in-law already hit you. She’s really so cruel.”

“Isn’t she, though? She’s just such an unreasonable woman, jealous of Leng Youran, so she went to pick a fight… By the way, Little Aunt, why were you there too?” Xiao Qing narrowed her eyes and sized up Xiao Luo. Could it be that Xiao Luo had also taken a liking to Leng Youran and wanted to act as a guardian angel?

Xiao Luo said, “Of course, I was doing it for you.”

Xiao Qing was puzzled. “For me?”

Xiao Luo nodded and smiled. “I know you like omegas like Leng Youran, so I helped her to build a good impression of you.”

Xiao Qing felt a bit more pleased and said, “Little Aunt, you did well. But if something like this happens next time, you need to tell me first.”

Her information wasn’t that up-to-date; it had taken her a great deal of effort to find Leng Youran’s studio. Although this little aunt was just cannon fodder, she was familiar with the information of this world, so she could consider making use of her.

Xiao Luo lowered her eyes, pondering. “But Leng Youran actually has a fiancée. Do you want to come between them? That’s not very good, is it? We should behave ourselves from now on.”

Xiao Qing frowned displeasedly. What did she mean by “come between them”? That sounded awful!

She just wanted to awaken Leng Youran’s self-awareness, to let the female lead—who was just a paper-thin character—possess a true soul and not live her whole life according to the script of fate. Wasn’t that a good thing?

And besides, they weren’t marked or married, so she couldn’t really be considered a third party.

But Xiao Qing didn’t voice these thoughts. She cleared her throat and said, “I know my limits. You don’t need to say more.”

Xiao Luo nodded with a smile. “Alright, I knew Big Niece was a person of principle and bottom-line.”

Xiao Qing glanced at the smile on Xiao Luo’s face, her chest tightening. It didn’t seem like she had agreed to anything, right?

“Don’t bother about my affairs. Let’s go home. Oh, and you’d better stay away from that Xia Lingyu.” Xiao Qing felt that Xia Lingyu was a villainous supporting female character who would sooner or later be written off as cannon fodder.

…

Xiao Luo took Xiao Qing back to the Xiao family home. Then she drove to a certain high-end apartment building, where she saw Xia Lingyu standing at the entrance waiting for her.

She got out of the car, ran over, spread her arms, and threw herself into Xia Lingyu’s embrace. “Did you wait long?”

She felt a bit guilty in her heart.

However, Xia Lingyu just patted her head and smiled. “Not very long. Come, let me show you around the apartment I bought not long ago.”

She had previously considered what their life living together would be like, and she felt an apartment was best. Although it was a bit small, it was cozy enough. It would be sufficient for just the two of them.

Xiao Luo entered the apartment and saw that it was decorated according to her preferences. A wave of emotion surged in her heart. She couldn’t help but hug Xia Lingyu and say, “Professor, this morning’s date was a failure. So tonight, let’s have our date here, okay?”

She pressed close to Xia Lingyu’s ear and whispered, “I really can’t hold back from doing some exciting things to the professor.”
