She hadn't expected that she could actually tell from the changes in airflow that it was Luan Yenan's silent mockery.
She looked up and met Luan Yenan's gaze.
The latter said in a calm tone, "You can't do it this way."
It's been discovered.
Sure enough, even part-time jobs are being regulated.
Zuo Baixuan gave the excuse she had prepared beforehand: "This is just a programming assignment for school. Since I didn't bring my computer, I can only use my phone to write it first, otherwise I won't be able to hand in the assignment on time."
Luan Yenan's family's information technology company, "Frontend," is a world-renowned top company. Her mother has always hoped that she could inherit the family business, which is why she was willing to spend a huge sum of money to donate a library to send her to Beijing University to get a graduation certificate.
Nowadays, even a wife bought with money would be more prestigious if she had a nice graduation certificate.
Zuo Baixuan was certain that the crazy woman must have thought of this when she stopped herself from losing control.
That's all there is to it.
You can't expect an immoral person to suddenly have a change of heart.
Luan Yenan opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, his cell phone rang, interrupting him.
She saw the nickname "Old Woman" on her phone screen, without specifying who it was.
Luan Yenan didn't hesitate, and wasn't even that worried. As soon as he answered the phone, he addressed the other person by their nickname.
"Old woman."
The person on the other end of the phone was clearly stunned for a moment, then even their breathing became tinged with anger. They coughed twice in anger before angrily saying to the others around them, "I told you we shouldn't have bothered with that brat! Let her die out there!"
But she was quickly persuaded by those around her, and resisting the urge to hang up, she snapped at him: "After being ignored for a while, not only have you not learned anything good, but you've also secretly done so many things. Luan Yenan, have you really grown up? You don't even need to tell your own mother about your marriage anymore?"
Luan Yenan understood; the "old woman" was the original owner's mother, Luan Muyin.
“I really don’t want you to. But your mom said that since you’re married, you can’t mistreat the girl. Even if you don’t have a wedding, you should at least bring her home to meet us tomorrow, and we can give her a red envelope or something.”
"It's fine that you spent that money on the new house. I can also give you some money to keep as a family stash. But the condition is that you have to live an honest life from now on." Luan Muyin's words, tinged with helplessness, bluntly laid out the minimum requirement.
Upon hearing "a sum of money," Luan Yenan, who was originally planning to find an excuse to brush off the topic, changed her mind.
"Okay, please send a car to pick us up tomorrow."
Luan Muyin clearly hadn't expected Luan Yenan to agree so readily, and for a moment she didn't know what to say. In the end, she let out a sigh and managed to squeeze out a single "good."
The phone call ended without any formal closing remarks.
Luan Yenan put away his phone, looked at Zuo Baixuan who was sitting up straight, and reached out his hand.
Zuo Baixuan, seemingly out of some unspoken understanding, immediately grasped the meaning, stood up, walked to Luan Yenan's side, and took her arm.
They looked just like a couple.
The inexplicably relaxed atmosphere made Zuo Baixuan wonder if the "we" in the phone call earlier when someone said "come to pick us up" included her.
But it also felt a bit unnecessary.
Instead of wasting time on this, I'd rather secretly drift off and think about how to fix that awkward piece of code from earlier.
They remained silent the entire way until they got into the private car, where the driver asked, "Where are you two going now?"
"Go home," Luan Yenan replied.
The word "home" made Zuo Baixuan silently twitch her lips into a bitter smile. Gazing at the myriad lights outside the window, she felt no warmth in her heart.
go home?
Where is home?
What home does she even have?

Chapter 5
As soon as he returned to his luxurious penthouse, Luan Yenan asked Zuo Baixuan to bring him paper and pen, and to Zuo Baixuan's surprise, he gestured for her to sit down and have a chat.
On the way back, Luan Yenan checked all of the original owner's software, quickly extracted useful information, and constructed a portrait of the original owner in his mind.
A typical spoiled rich kid.
Omega mother died young, Alpha mother Luan Muyin was busy with work, so when she was a child she was left to be raised by Alpha grandfather Luan Lizheng, who had traditional ideas and was in the late stages of Alpha cancer, and picked up a lot of bad habits.
After growing up, it differentiated into an S-level Alpha and was rated as the top of the S-level, attracting much attention but also exposing many problems.
He is arrogant, loves-starved, and has a paranoid and crazy personality.
He doesn't understand emotions but loves to flirt with Omegas, wanting to demonstrate his value and sense of existence through a lot of attention.
However, the pheromones she differentiates are strange; they smell like chili peppers. And because the pheromones are of a very high level, whether released normally or during the fertile period, they only cause discomfort to others.
Her Alpha mother and Omega stepmother took her to various hospitals for treatment, but to no avail.
The doctor recommended finding a suitable S-grade Omega for matching.
However, most S-class Omegas reside in high society circles, and scumbag Alphas have long been infamous there.
Even though a marriage alliance with the Luan family could bring many benefits, no family would be willing to waste an S-class Omega on this hopeless Alpha.
This physiological problem caused the original body to become increasingly sick.
Luan Muyin couldn't bear to watch. In order to cheer her up, she cut off her allowance, hoping that she could focus her life on work and study, even if she didn't amount to anything, at least she could live like a human being.
Unexpectedly, the original owner of this body really did "make something of herself." She stole company secrets and then used them to threaten her Alpha mother.
When the threat failed, they sold the secrets, causing the company to lose a multi-million dollar order that it had spent half a year preparing.
Luan Muyin was so angry that she was hospitalized and wanted to sever ties with her, but it was her Omega stepmother who persuaded her to stay.
The original owner of this body, however, was carefree and took the money to live a carefree life.
Zuo Baixuan was someone the original owner met while waiting for someone at a milk tea shop in the university town.
It's said to be love at first sight, but that's only partly true.
She specifically hired her own detective to investigate Zuo Baixuan's background.
It was obvious to the naked eye that she was a little girl from a very poor family.
But to my surprise, he turned out to be an S-class Omega.
The girl was clever; she used legal rules to conceal her S-class Omega medical examination report.
Because of insufficient pheromones due to malnutrition during gland development, no one suspected anything.
The original owner of this body had just spent almost all the money he earned from selling secrets, so he started thinking about getting married. Even though Luan Muyin was still angry, Luan Lizheng, who only wanted his descendants to carry on the family line, would definitely be happy.
She contacted Zuo Baixuan's adoptive parents.
From her perspective, the transaction was successfully completed; she coaxed and tricked the young girl into becoming her legal husband.
Luan Yenan, however, is a true capitalist. If she were to comment on this transaction, she would applaud.
For Zuo Baixuan, this was nothing more than a fair transaction where everyone got what they wanted.
However, Zuo Baixuan is currently unaware that the trading partner has changed.
Having acquired a new identity, Luan Yenan had originally considered replicating his skills from the original world to earn his first pot of gold.
This idea changed after learning that the original owner of this body was an extremely wealthy second-generation heir.
The money earned from selling secrets was squandered by the original owner of the body.
But this did not stop Luan Yenan from planning to obtain another huge sum of money from his wealthy mother as initial capital, just like the original owner of the body.
In her original world, she didn't have time to play video games and wasn't particularly interested in them. But now she understood why the young employees in her company were so keen on creating alternate accounts or playing new games.
interesting.
When Zuo Baixuan sat down opposite Luan Yenan, she happened to see a faint smile on his face, which made her uneasy.
This woman is always so unpredictable and hard to fathom.
Taking out paper and pen, are they going to settle accounts?
She instinctively sat up straight, revealing a docile expression, putting on a facade.
Luan Yenan looked at Zuo Baixuan and saw through the anxiety hidden in her expression. He made the corners of his mouth turn up even more obviously, no longer keeping her in suspense, and explained his intentions.
"Since our marriage is based on mutual benefit, we should have signed a prenuptial agreement. But things happened so suddenly that we skipped a lot of steps. It shouldn't be a problem to make up for it now, right? First of all, the first clause is that offensive behavior like suddenly throwing you onto the bed like today will not happen again."
Zuo Baixuan felt a chill run down her spine.
She really felt like she had smashed this crazy woman's head.
This person used to always smile, but it was mostly an arrogant smile built on a sense of superiority.
The confidence in that smile came from her background; she knew that no matter what she did, as long as she didn't cross the line, there would be powerful elders protecting her.
But now, that smile really looks like that of a cunning fox.
The first rule written on the paper was supposed to give her a sense of security. However, it triggered Zuo Baixuan's animalistic defensive instincts. She frantically wondered if this fox was planning to dig an even bigger trap.
These rich kids, born with a silver spoon in their mouths, should be very good at using laws, contracts, and treaties.
She examined the paper on the table carefully.
Luan Yenan wrote "Party A: Luan Yenan" and "Party B: Zuo Baixuan" with a strong penmanship.
And the first rule I just mentioned.
The handwriting is very beautiful, with its own style, neat yet elegant, and each stroke has just the right proportion, as if it has been practiced.
