The Substitute Bride Omega Is Irresistible!

The heavenly favored Xia Ruoqi's downfall came with her marriage.

Xia Ruoqi was incredibly proud, and she had every reason to be. Her family had been a prominent clan for a century, with deep roots. She was a top student who had graduated from an elite university, and had built a company from scratch and taken it public in just two years. As for her beauty, she was breathtaking, the dream Alpha of every Omega in Jin City. Xia Ruoqi was the very definition of a high-quality Alpha.

Naturally, someone as particular as Xia Ruoqi wanted the best of everything. She drove a top-of-the-line luxury car, lived in a mansion by the river, and had chosen the perfect Omega as her fiancee: Wu Yao, the eldest daughter of the Wu family, who was accomplished in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and as beautiful as a fairy.

Her charmed life came crashing down just before the wedding. She caught her beautiful, fairy-like fiancee meeting someone in secret, with her clothes in disarray!

There was no way Xia Ruoqi could go through with the marriage. She had no desire to wear a green hat. But the venue was booked and the invitations had gone out, so the wedding had to happen. If she broke off the engagement at the last minute, what would become of the Xia family's reputation? Xia Ruoqi had been proud for over twenty years, but even if she had to swallow her anger, she would do it!

She definitely wouldn't marry Wu Yao, but the Wu family had another Omega who would have to do.

On their wedding night, Xia Ruoqi coldly planned to make it clear to the Omega that this marriage was only a temporary arrangement. Once things settled down, they would part ways. But that Omega laid down some rules first.

"First, no marking."

"Second, the marriage lasts only one year. After that, we'll divorce amicably."

"Third, we don't interfere in each other's lives."

Xia Ruoqi looked at her and laughed in disbelief. "You're the little wife the Wu family gave me to make amends. Since when do you get to tell me what to do?"

Xia Ruoqi, three months into the marriage: "You have no right to bargain with me."

Xia Ruoqi, one year into the marriage: "Honey, I was wrong. Can we not get divorced?"

Wu Ming: "You can't just buy love because you want it, whenever you want it~"

As the Wu family's unloved second daughter, Wu Ming had always been the invisible ugly duckling of the family. Her older sister was as beautiful as a fairy, and her sister had a heavenly favored fiancee. Stories like those fairy tales' happily-ever-afters had nothing to do with Wu Ming. She was a nobody in the story of the main characters.

Until her sister got herself into a scandal and was caught red-handed by the heavenly favored one. The Wu family's world came crashing down.

Wu Ming thought the wedding would surely be called off, but unexpectedly, there was still a way out. The heavenly favored one cared too much about her reputation to be humiliated before the wedding, so she chose Wu Ming to stand in for her and help her weather the scandal.

Just like that, wearing a white veil, Wu Ming held a dreamlike wedding with Xia Ruoqi, the woman she had yearned for for ten years.

As a mere supporting character, Wu Ming felt she could die without regrets.

To spare herself embarrassment and ease Xia Ruoqi's burden, she thoughtfully proposed three rules. But who knew that all those contract marriages on TV were lies?

When Xia Ruoqi insisted on breaking their agreement on her own, Wu Ming was powerless to stop her.

In the dead of night, she was pinned to the sofa, her gland burning with heat. She willingly let herself be swept away.

But afterward, Xia Ruoqi was cool and detached. "About last night, please understand."

Wu Ming forced a nonchalant smile. "You didn't mark me. It was just sex. We both got what we needed."

Over a year of getting what they needed from each other, Wu Ming had lost herself and found her senses again. But she always knew one thing: Xia Ruoqi, the heavenly favored one, was not someone an ugly duckling like her should covet. So when the time came, the ugly duckling should leave of her own accord.

She left without a trace, never expecting Xia Ruoqi, drenched in rain and looking terrified, to block the entrance to her home. "Please, give me one more chance."
