CHAPTER 4

The hunter disguised themselves as the purest and most harmless prey.

Ye Chengxing noticed the slight trembling of the Omega's fingertips as she gripped the bedsheets. She thought to herself that Li Jia had already been exposed to too much filth, so it was inevitable for her to suspect that Ye Chengxing had ulterior motives. After all, no one had ever shown her genuine and normal emotions. They had dragged her deeper and deeper into the abyss until her destruction.

Realizing this, Ye Chengxing approached the bedside, her tone becoming even softer. She decided to proceed gradually, saying, "It's okay, don't think about those things. I won't do anything to you."

Upon hearing her words, the Omega's trembling seemed to intensify. The corners of Li Jia's eyes turned pink, accentuating her already beautiful face, which became increasingly seductive and sinful. She moved her lips and exhaled a scent as sweet as an orchid, her tone pitiful enough to evoke the deepest sadistic desires in a person. "They all want my body. Don't you want it too? I don't want to give it to them, but I can give it to you, to the one who saved me..."

The scent of white peach pheromones seemed to silently linger in the air.

Ye Chengxing's expression changed upon hearing her words.

Seeing the subtle change in the Alpha's expression, Li Jia sneered inwardly, but on the surface, she revealed a slightly broken expression. Just as she was about to speak again, she heard Ye Chengxing suddenly say, "Li Jia."

Ye Chengxing looked at Li Jia, her tone gentle but with a hint of seriousness. "Your body belongs to you, and I don't need you to do that."

Li Jia met Ye Chengxing's gaze, almost bursting into laughter in her heart.

Look at how skilled this person is at pretending, so proper, with eyes that don't harbor any nauseating thoughts. If she hadn't seen the ferocious and ugly nature hidden beneath this Alpha's surface with her own eyes, she might have actually believed it.

Li Jia lowered her eyelashes, concealing the hint of mockery, and continued, "But I want to do something for you..."

As she spoke, she also uncovered the blanket. It was then that Ye Chengxing noticed that Li Jia wasn't wearing pants underneath, and the loose patient gown fell to her thighs, revealing her smooth and snow-white skin. Li Jia raised her hand, her fingertips resting on the buttons of the gown, as if she wanted to undo them.

Ye Chengxing felt a headache coming on. She pressed Li Jia's hand, which was about to undo the buttons, and hurriedly said, "Wait, that's not what I need you to do."

Li Jia raised her captivating eyes, which had widened slightly due to excitement. She couldn't wait to kill Ye Chengxing when the time was right, when this person felt invulnerable. Then, the fake expression on this face would surely be replaced by an expression of disbelief and utter fear, just like in the previous life.

"What do you need me to do?" Li Jia raised her hand, about to touch Ye Chengxing's neck, her tone becoming increasingly ambiguous. She was skilled at seducing people and knew exactly how to bring out the ugliest side of these individuals.

Look, with just a gentle probing like this, they couldn't help but reveal their true selves. No matter how many times it happened, these people were all equally nauseating.

Li Jia smiled on the surface, like the softest flower, but in reality, she was already filled with venom, waiting for the moment when the prey approached to strike a fatal blow.

Ye Chengxing took a deep breath, pulled up the blanket, held Li Jia's hand, and tucked it back under the blanket, covering her body in the process.

Only after firmly covering her like this did Ye Chengxing speak again. "There is indeed something I need you to do. During your hospital stay these days, you need to take your medication and eat properly. Also, make sure to wear the patient gown and avoid catching a cold. Even though you've already received the fever-reducing injection, it may recur in the following days, so be cautious."

A faint mocking smile appeared at the corner of Li Jia's lips, laden with a hint of sarcasm.

Ye Chengxing glanced at the blanket and tugged at it anxiously. "I'll be by your side tonight. If there's anything, just call me. Come on, make sure your hands and feet are covered, don't expose them."

"Oh, by the way," Ye Chengxing looked around and said, "Where are your pants? I'll go get them for you to wear."

While asking, Ye Chengxing looked around the ward and found the patient gown's pants in a corner. After finding them, she handed them to Li Jia to put on.

"Although you're not running a fever now, there's a chance it could suddenly spike in the middle of the night. Put these on first, and then get some sleep."

Li Jia met her gaze.

In the Alpha's eyes, there was concern and a sense of care, but no nauseating thoughts.

It seemed that her rebirth had indeed brought some changes, like Ye Chengxing, who could act and pretend even better than in the previous life.

A radiant smile suddenly bloomed on Li Jia's lips. "Okay, I'll do that."

She suddenly didn't want to kill this scum of a person right away.

Killing them right away wouldn't be as interesting. She wanted to make them suffer and wish for death.

......

In fact, it was already very late by now, and in another two or three hours, dawn might break.

Ye Chengxing was not only worried about Li Jia, but since she had transmigrated, she also didn't feel sleepy or tired.

Looking at the quiet sleeping face of the Omega, she suddenly sighed in her heart, remembering the look of trust and gratitude in her eyes before she fell asleep. It made her feel a bit melancholy.

The unreformed villainess seemed no different from an innocent flower. But since she had decided to heal her, she wouldn't let her suffer any harm. However, apart from that, she also needed to give her the means to protect herself.

Making plans in her mind, Ye Chengxing recalled some details. The current Li Jia was only eighteen, if she remembered correctly. In the original plot, the manager and the company had kept her isolated from the outside world to control her and gain her wholehearted trust. She would need to go to school at the age of eighteen, of course, that would depend on Li Jia's willingness. If she only liked acting, she could start an entertainment company to support Li Jia, and financial resources wouldn't be a problem at all.

And that manager and the company, they also needed to be taught a lesson. They were so disgusting.

She wondered if Li Jia's orphanage from her childhood still existed...

Just thinking about those scumbags made her heart fill with hatred. She wished she could make them pay for their actions right now.

As Ye Chengxing planned in her mind, she saw that it was almost time. She picked up the nearby temperature measuring tool and decided to take Li Jia's temperature again.

Just as she sat up but hadn't completely approached, Li Jia opened her eyes. There was no sign of sleepiness in her eyes, they were clear to the extreme. However, because the curtains in the ward were drawn, making it dim, Ye Chengxing didn't notice this expression.

She thought it was her movement that had woken Li Jia up and couldn't help feeling a bit annoyed.

Come to think of it, an Omega who had just come out of that environment would likely sleep lightly, filled with unease. So she spoke in a soothing tone, "There's nothing wrong, it's just that fever tends to recur. Let me take your temperature, then go back to sleep."

She lowered her voice, and her already pleasant and gentle voice gained an inexplicable tenderness when lowered.

As Ye Chengxing's words fell, maybe because it was indeed getting late or perhaps because she was too tired, Li Jia, looking at the other approaching to take her temperature, listening to the soft comfort in her ears, actually felt a hint of long-lost drowsiness.

She curled her fingertips and stared at the figure of the Alpha in the room, which appeared somewhat blurry due to the dim environment.

After a moment, Li Jia lowered her cool gaze.

... Pretending, how disgusting.
