CH 29

Song Xici is a transmigrator who doesn’t possess his own memories, only those of the original host, along with an auxiliary system.

The full name of the system is “Pretending to be a Beta as a wealthy Omega Young Master while Living an Alpha System,”, and it’s abbreviated to B while providing him with three cheats:

First, a search engine in his brain, allowing him to become a little genius who excels effortlessly in academics, relieving his mother’s worries about his studies even if he were to sleep most of the day.

Second, an automatic body operation mode, enabling him to play the piano with elegance or overpower Alphas in combat. He exudes a noble temperament, making him equipped for face-slapping.

Third, the script.

He knows the direction this book’s plot will take.

He is the biological son of the Song family couple who was lost for 14 years. He was recently found and brought back home. His parents said, “We have already developed a bond with your younger brother. You need to accept him.” They silently permitted his younger brother to bully and marginalize him, as the younger brother is a precious Omega, while he has yet to differentiate, with a 99% chance of becoming an ordinary Beta. However, the Song family’s standing in the business world requires consolidating through an Omega marriage, and his younger brother has already been promised to the Ren family.

In addition, his Alpha older brother shows no concern for him and only dotes on his Omega younger brother.

His younger brother, who should have lived a rustic life in the countryside, was swapped with him.  The biological parents of this younger brother from the countryside were malicious people who resorted to the theft of Song Xici in order to provide a better life for their own child. In the original story, early on, there will be constant implications that Song Xici has “poor grades,” “lacks fashion sense,” and “is inept at everything” to highlight the younger brother’s nobility. Later on, the younger brother will become insanely jealous of Song Xici because the latter gains the favor of the male lead, Ren Shuhan.

Ren Shuhan, a top student and a school bully1It’s not a literal bully, but more like a top dog that no one else dares to bully actually, is a cold and paranoid person. Although Song Xici’s white lotus younger brother claims to be his fiancé, Ren Shuhan has no feelings for the white lotus younger brother and has never agreed to the marriage.

However, this aloof big shot who is difficult for others to approach becomes interested in the protagonist.

During the beginning of the school year, due to an accident, Song Xici is forced to share a room with Ren Shuhan. Both of them forget to bring their suppressants, and coincidentally, Song Xici starts to differentiate. Ren Shuhan discovers that Song Xici is an Omega.

But Song Xici is proud and doesn’t want the Song family’s attitude towards him to change just because he is an Omega. He only wishes to maintain the status quo and observe these people from a distance. Thus, he threatens Ren Shuhan to keep his secret.

Seizing an opportunity, Ren Shuhan takes advantage of the situation, saying: “Let me bite you, and I won’t tell anyone.”

Song Xici can only swallow his pride and allow Ren Shuhan to bite him.

However, it doesn’t matter. The domineering Gong should act this outrageously at this moment. It won’t be long before he starts the pursuit of his wife, only to be tormented by Song Xici, who is focused solely on studying.

So, rumors started spreading around the school about the new country boy, Song Xici, being a top student. After some time… what? He became a school bully? And later on… oh my, he actually got involved with Brother Han?

Those who were jealous of Song Xici thought that he was done for. However, one day after school, a classmate witnessed Song Xici cornering Ren Shuhan in the classroom and saying, “If you want to bite, do it quickly and then get lost. Don’t delay my training and studying.”

Shock! Deadly enemies turned into lovers!

…This script is quite cool.

But!

Perhaps ordinary people would like this plot, but Song Xici doesn’t. He doesn’t want to be casually bitten by a man he doesn’t even know.

Who is Ren Shuhan, this scum of a man? He wants to bite someone just because he discovered their secret? That’s so unethical! Ugh, disgusting.

Fortunately, none of that has happened yet. Song Xici decides not to follow the script and instead carries suppressants with him wherever he goes. This way, he can avoid being bitten by the scum and also prevent being envied and framed by his white lotus younger brother. It’s a win-win situation.

But!

Not long after the start of the school year, Song Xici begins to feel unsatisfied with the story.

Firstly, his younger brother has exhausted all of his schemes. Why was he spreading “rumors” about him performing poorly in academics (which was true for the original host)? At the dance, he was instigating him to embarrass him, only for Song Xici to counter with outstanding grades and elegant dance moves. His Alpha older brother has also seen the stark difference in the character of his two younger brothers and regrets his previous actions. He now tries to please Song Xici, and even their parents are a bit disappointed in the younger brother.

So, Song Xici feels that he is living a life with no challenges…

Secondly, as an Omega, he has needs.

Seeing all the Alpha-Omega pairs around him, with his white lotus younger brother constantly pleasing Ren Shuhan and boasting about being his “fiancé,” Song Xici is also slightly enchanted. He suddenly finds a reason to get closer to Ren Shuhan:

To seek revenge on his white lotus younger brother!

If he can first win over the scum, his younger brother will surely be infuriated. Then, he can dump the scum and exact revenge on the man who bites indiscriminately. It’s a double win, isn’t it?

Moreover, Ren Shuhan does have his charms. He possesses the looks and physique of a typical protagonist, and he is competent in various aspects. He is quite outstanding, but he just lacks the experience of chasing after his wife.

Song Xici thinks that maybe when Ren Shuhan is pushed out of the crematorium, physically and mentally tormented, then he might consider accepting his pursuit.

So, today, when Song Xici leaves for school, he doesn’t bring his suppressants.

As expected, the plot begins. After the afternoon physical education class, as the sports committee member, Song Xici goes to the equipment room to return the mats used for sit-ups. There, he encounters Ren Shuhan, the sports committee member from the neighboring class. While counting the mats, they are accidentally locked inside the room by a passing teacher.

Alone in a room, Alpha and Omega, the pheromones start to kick in.

As Song Xici sees Ren Shuhan’s eyes turning redder and his breathing becoming heavier, he looks quite enticing. Song Xici even extends his neck, anticipating him to make a move. But then, he…

He doesn’t know where he pulled out two bottles of suppressants from!

Still, it’s a spray type suppressant. Song Xici is completely dumbfounded. Has technology advanced to the point where even suppressants for ABO configurations have been upgraded? From injectable to spray type? How advanced is that? The protagonist must be wealthy… No!

The problem is, shouldn’t the scum also have forgotten to bring suppressants?

It’s not until Ren Shuhan kicks the door and runs away that Song Xici finally snaps out of his daze.

Voices from around ask about the smell of pheromones. Song Xici quickly sprays himself with suppressants, checks the system, and shockingly realizes that the plot has changed.

Suddenly, he feels a bit scared.

The feeling of having everything under control disappears.

But it’s okay. Song Xici pats his chest and comforts himself. He doesn’t know why things have changed here, but the plot has generated something new. The system shows that the next time he forgets to bring suppressants and encounters Ren Shuhan, who also forgets to bring suppressants, they can try again. He can also study why it changed and what might happen next.

He didn’t lose out in this situation since he’s the one who triggered it.

That scum should already be smitten with him.

Now all he needs to do is threaten Ren Shuhan a bit more, making sure he doesn’t reveal his Omega status. They might have had an encounter, but he can take it slow and eventually wear him down.

On the other side, Ren Shuhan is in a hurry.

He can’t find Jiang Qingyue’s name, and if he wants to use facial recognition, the system needs to see the person in question or have access to their photo. But he doesn’t have anything on him right now.

In the previous world, he and Jiang Qingyue spent over ten years of blissful honeymoon phase. He never expected to be transported into a book again one day, and the system didn’t give any warning. It seems it indeed needs an upgrade, but the progress bar seemed like it would take… probably a month.

If his wife still looks the same as before, Ren Shuhan can guarantee recognizing him at a glance. However, finding him will still be challenging. What if they’re not in the same school?

And if him appearance has changed, things will be even more difficult.

The worst-case scenario is…

In this world, Jiang Qingyue may not exist.

Ren Shuhan didn’t dwell on that possibility and started searching for the campus map to return to the classroom. While walking, he examined the information. Fortunately, the embroidery on the school uniform indicated that he belonged to Class 1-1, which wasn’t mentioned in the character introduction.

The introduction only provided his host’s identity: Alpha, protagonist and school bully, a top student and campus tyrant. Due to script changes, the information was incomplete. Please load the memories of the original host for more details or check the plot.

Ren Shuhan was a bit confused.

What the hell?

I’m in such a hurry, and you want me to read a novel now?

And when he tried to load the original host’s memories, the system prompted, “Please wait for the current update to finish loading.”

Ren Shuhan was going crazy. “Do I have to wait for a month?”

If I had known, I would have loaded the memories first before updating the system! Stay calm, the four rules of life: if it doesn’t work, change it; if you like it, buy it; drink more hot water; try restarting… Yes, restart!

System: “The host does not have the authority to force restart or completely shut down the system.”

Ren Shuhan: “…”

Even though the AI was already turned off, the current response was an automated reply from the system. But it seemed like the system had anticipated his desire to restart and explained, somewhat aggrieved, “Because during system shutdown, the aura-blocking function and firewall that shield the protagonist will be temporarily disabled, which may lead to severe consequences such as intrusion. Therefore, if the host has any needs, it is recommended to use other standby functions to handle it by himself…”

Then the system repeated the details of the original work.

After a calm moment, Ren Shuhan surrendered.

At that moment, Song Xici suddenly rushed at him from behind without saying a word, ready to attack him. Ren Shuhan instinctively dodged, feeling annoyed but didn’t retaliate.

Because although it was highly unlikely, what if he was Qingyue?

“Come here!” Song Xici said fiercely.

“I’m busy, what’s the matter?” Ren Shuhan frowned. I just gave him a bottle of suppressants, and he’s acting like this?

Song Xici looked around and saw people in the distance. He reached out to grab Ren Shuhan’s clothes, but Ren Shuhan evaded him. Now Song Xici was even more furious, pointing at him and warning, “You’re not allowed to disclose that I’m an Omega, otherwise…”

He gestured a cutting motion across his throat.

Ren Shuhan was certain now, he definitely wasn’t Qingyue.

“…Who are you? Do I know you? Do you think you’re the sun and the whole world revolves around you?”

Song Xici was stunned. Although he knew Ren Shuhan was his arch-enemy, he wasn’t mentally prepared to be countered like this. Instantly consumed by rage, he wanted to approach and attack Ren Shuhan again.

But Ren Shuhan didn’t even bother to respond. He directly extracted a blob of lubricant from the system’s mall and poured it onto the soles of Song Xici’s shoes, watching him slip and fall in front of him.

“Get lost,” Ren Shuhan said dismissively, “Don’t interrupt me from reading my novel.”

REN SHUHAN WHAT’S THIS IMMATURE WAY OF MAKING HIM FALL DOWN YOU CHILD?!

I kinda forgot that for the premise, the original Ren Shuhan would need to be a scum and I thought that he was a sh!tty male lead, then I remembered that it was needed for the plot haha. Especially since it looks like a typical omegaverse plot!

And tbh it looks like Song Xici’s system is quite useful this time… I wonder how that’ll affect the plot since Ren Shuhan’s own system is busy updating!

Also, I’m wondering how it’ll be with Jiang Qingyue bby (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)
