Villainous Scientist (2)
Jiang Qianyu was unaware that Song Xuyi had already discovered her true identity.
As the medicine truly transformed Alpha into Omega, despite having anticipated it, Jiang Qianyu couldn’t help but feel excited. She carefully observed the one who was once mighty and invincible but now sat there in pain. The distance between them was getting closer and closer…
Song Xuyi awkwardly turned away, unable to meet her gaze.
As Jiang Qianyu approached, the scent of peaches grew stronger. Song Xuyi couldn’t understand why, perhaps due to defects in Jiang Qianyu’s concoction, she could still catch a whiff of her pheromones. It was a fragrance of sweet, intoxicating peaches, devoid of any threat. Yet, it seemed to be intermingled with a subtle hint of icy pressure, like a cunning fuse slowly igniting the lost and submissive desires deep within one’s heart.
This villain… is truly beautiful!
As she looked at Jiang Qianyu, who was now within arm’s reach, there was a moment when Song Xuyi inexplicably felt a longing to break through her cold facade, to lean in and kiss the enticing mole at the corner of her eye, and place her neck within reach of her lips…
“Oh my, why do they look so similar?”
Fortunately, just in the nick of time, the voice of the system in her mind sounded off. It carried a sense of astonishment as it said, “Xuyi! Snap out of it!”
“Help me get the suppressant…”
Song Xuyi didn’t understand which person the system referred to as “looking similar,” but with the system’s almost desperate reminder, she regained her senses.
Song Xuyi gritted her teeth and leaned back, trying to avoid Jiang Qianyu’s touch. “The suppressant is in the cabinet by the bedside…”
As the words left her mouth, Song Xuyi realized that her voice had become coquettish, as if it could flow like water. She bit her lip hard, trying to prevent herself from making embarrassing moans. However, the glands at the back of her neck were uncontrollable, and a sticky, fragrant liquid kept flowing, filling the room with the scent of oranges.
This is… extremely embarrassing!
Song Xuyi closed her eyes in shame.
The scent of oranges throughout the room seemed to activate all the latent aggressive genes in her subconscious. The once mighty little marshal now lay disheveled on the floor, biting her lower lip tightly. Her fair and tender skin had turned pink…
Jiang Qianyu’s gaze fell upon the glands at the back of Song Xuyi’s neck, and her throat couldn’t help but move. For a moment, she even forgot about her plan to observe the subject.

But soon, Jiang Qianyu’s eyes regained their clarity.
She looked at Song Xuyi’s neck with a dark gaze, a hint of mockery appearing at the corner of her lips. She stood up calmly, walked to the cabinet, and took out a vial of suppressant…
A cold sensation spread through her veins, as if she had suddenly stepped into winter. The burning desire that had engulfed her body receded like a tide. Song Xuyi put down the syringe and let out a sigh of relief…
The setting of this world is truly terrifying!
Song Xuyi lay on the ground, her body soaked, feeling as if she had just been pulled out of the water.
Her strength gradually returned, and Song Xuyi sat down, leaning against the edge of the bed, and slowly lowered her head.
Even with her head lowered, Song Xuyi could sense Jiang Qianyu’s gaze on her.
Song Xuyi could almost be certain that her original self would become tied to Jiang Qianyu as an Omega.
However, Song Xuyi had initially thought that Jiang Qianyu would take her life while she was in a state of confusion and infatuation. She didn’t expect Jiang Qianyu to actually give her the suppressant.
What was Jiang Qianyu’s intention?
……
Song Xuyi furrowed her brow. Regardless of Jiang Qianyu’s motives, since she spared her life for now, she shouldn’t harm her again in the short term. What was more important now was how to survive after this ordeal.
In the world of Alphas, it was survival of the fittest. The original self had offended many people with her reckless behavior, but because of her strength as a top Alpha, others didn’t dare to trouble her…
In this world, Omegas were portrayed as the protected class of the entire country, but in reality, they were considered noble breeding tools. Since childhood, the empire had instilled in them the belief that Omegas and Betas needed to submit to Alphas. The most important task of an Omega’s life was to bear children. Omegas in this world had no right to marry Betas or other Omegas. Even unmarried Omegas of the appropriate age would be forcibly assigned to Alphas…
Once those people find out that she had lost her strength and become an Omega…
Song Xuyi couldn’t help but shudder at the thought of that situation.
After much consideration, Song Xuyi ultimately decided to run away.
It was definitely impossible to stay on the Imperial Star. This place was in the center of the privileged, filled with cunning individuals. And with her being an Omega in heat, any slip-up would be noticed…
But where could she run to?
Song Xuyi quickly searched through the memories of her original self and actually found a suitable place:
The original self’s mother was an extremely gentle Omega. After giving birth to the original self, she fell ill and passed away when the original self was three years old. Later, the original self’s father also sacrificed himself in the battle against the Insect Race. At a young age, the original self became the sole heir of two families. Because the father’s family was wealthy, the original self had never managed her mother’s inheritance. Now, Song Xuyi remembered that this body had a few small planets under her name, left behind by her mother. They were scattered in the most remote corners of the starry region, considered the poorest and most backward places in the starry domain.
Considering the Emperor’s growing apprehension towards the original self over the past two years, Song Xuyi believed that if she wanted to run away, the Emperor shouldn’t pose a significant problem. After all, the Emperor wanted nothing more than to see the original self relinquish her military power…
As for what would happen after running away…
Song Xuyi instinctively raised her head and looked at Jiang Qianyu, who happened to be looking at her.
That same gaze came again!
(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)
Seemingly calm, but harboring scrutiny and evaluation, as if observing a research subject placed in a glass jar…
According to the timeline, Jiang Qianyu had recently developed a potion that could transform Alphas into Omegas. It’s estimated that after developing the potion, Jiang Qianyu hadn’t found anyone to experiment on. And now, the original self, with her wicked intentions towards her, happened to fall right into Jiang Qianyu’s trap and became her first test subject…
Facing Song Xuyi’s gaze, Jiang Qianyu didn’t avert her eyes as she used to. She curved her lips and her voice even carried a hint of concern: “Are you feeling better? Is there any discomfort?”
If the original self were here, she would likely be captivated by Jiang Qianyu’s rare tenderness.
However, Song Xuyi knew that Jiang Qianyu only wanted to gather more experimental data at this moment. She didn’t feel moved by it, but rather a chill down her spine.
But in front of Jiang Qianyu, Song Xuyi couldn’t show her fear–
“That’s not a question you should be asking!”
Song Xuyi tried her best to imitate the reaction the original self would have. She summoned the remaining strength in her body, put on a fierce expression, and coldly laughed as she grabbed Jiang Qianyu’s neck: “Now that you know my secret, I’ll give you two choices–“
“One is that I kill you right now! The other… is that you become the person who takes care of me, whom I’ve been lacking by my side. If you’re determined to serve me in the future, I’ll spare your life–“
Song Xuyi said that on purpose.
Knowing Jiang Qianyu’s cunning nature, if she didn’t want to, she would definitely find a way to escape from Song Xuyi’s side. On the other hand, now that Song Xuyi herself couldn’t guarantee her safety, she didn’t want to reluctantly keep a trouble by her side. And if Jiang Qianyu wanted to stay by Song Xuyi’s side, it would conveniently facilitate Song Xuyi’s future missions…
Regardless of whether Jiang Qianyu decides to stay or not, Song Xuyi had prepared for it.
Jiang Qianyu didn’t reply immediately.
She stared at Song Xuyi’s hand, which was holding her neck, with a pensive expression, and slowly furrowed her brows.
“You can rest assured, I won’t reveal it,” Jiang Qianyu sighed softly when she raised her eyes again. Her expression became extremely gentle, matching her slender body, like a delicate white flower on the verge of wilting in the rain, evoking sympathy. “After all, Marshal, you warned me not long ago–“
“I was born as your person, and even in death, I can only be your ghost…”
Song Xuyi found Jiang Qianyu’s words to be utter nonsense.
It must be because Jiang Qianyu saw that she could suddenly burst out and grab her neck, and felt that the potion was not perfect enough, so she wanted to stay by her side to further observe its effects.
But regardless of Jiang Qianyu’s intentions, whether she would find a way to leave or not, Song Xuyi didn’t have the energy to concern herself with it for the time being.
In order to survive, Song Xuyi began feigning illness and devoted herself to planning her resignation as Marshal.
Due to the effects of the potion, Song Xuyi’s strength had diminished to less than a tenth of its previous level. No one doubted her fabricated illness, and her resignation application quickly reached the Emperor’s desk.
The Emperor’s reputation among the people had always been mixed. He was extremely suspicious, and almost all the previous high-ranking officials before Song Xuyi had met unfortunate ends. Normally, such a monarch would undoubtedly provoke rebellious Alphas eager for a fight. However, the Emperor had a secret research institution that had developed a potion capable of amplifying an Alpha’s combat power several times on the battlefield…
This kind of potion was a lifesaver in battle, and the Emperor tightly held the formula, never revealing it to others. The other Alphas, in order to increase their chances of survival on the battlefield, had no choice but to tolerate the Emperor’s suspicion and doubt…
But now the Emperor was old, his suspicions grew more severe, and his mind grew more muddled. When Song Xuyi requested to resign, he didn’t even bother with pretenses of trying to persuade her to stay. Instead, he promptly accepted Song Xuyi’s Marshal token, approved her resignation application, and issued her a travel permit.
“Xuyi! Those few planets with beautiful landscapes are just right for you to take Omegas for rest and recuperation. In the future, a new Marshal will be born for the Empire…”

As Song Xuyi looked at the smile that the old Emperor couldn’t conceal on his face, she laughed along with him but sighed quietly in her heart:
It’s a good thing the original self didn’t witness this scene.
Although the original self was willful and reckless, due to the early death of her biological father, she genuinely respected the Emperor as a father figure. She knew the Emperor harbored suspicions about her, so she had exerted all her efforts to achieve merits and prove her loyalty. However, she never expected that the Emperor would still not have a trace of attachment to her…
But compared to the previous fate of those high-ranking officials who met ruin, her own ending was already considered good.
After obtaining the travel permit, Song Xuyi, adhering to the principle that each additional day meant an increased risk, immediately contacted a spacecraft transport company to prepare for the relocation of her entire family to the remote small planets under her command.
It was only at this moment that Song Xuyi had the mind to consider Jiang Qianyu’s situation.
During this period, Song Xuyi had given Jiang Qianyu ample opportunity to leave. However, Jiang Qianyu seemed extremely obedient and quietly stayed within the Marshal’s residence, never actually leaving.
Since that was the case, Song Xuyi began pretending to trust Jiang Qianyu, treating her as one of her own people. In order to legitimize Jiang Qianyu’s identity and allow her to operate outside, Song Xuyi helped her create a fake identity. Jiang Qianyu didn’t reveal her real name, so the system assigned her a random name, “Wang Liu.”
Soon, the day of relocation arrived.
Except for a few trusted old servants and Jiang Qianyu, Song Xuyi didn’t take anyone else with her.
Everything else was placed in the cargo hold, and Song Xuyi led her small group into the VIP cabin at the front. The VIP cabin was unmanned, with an automatic sensing system at the entrance that granted access based on the individual’s ID card and bone age data.
As soon as Song Xuyi entered, a mechanical female voice rang out from the machine.
“Song Xuyi, female, 24 years old.”
“Wang Liu, female,” when the machine detected Jiang Qianyu behind Song Xuyi, it paused for a moment before continuing, “20 years old, 35 years old… Beep beep beep, system malfunction, system malfunction…”
The author has something to say:
In the previous chapter, there was a comment from a little angel saying that Jiang Qianyu “castrated” her own wife as soon as she appeared…
Hahaha, I’ve been laughing all day~
