Fake Alpha Daughter's Self-Help Notes - Chapter 13

The soft fingertips pinched the earlobe and rubbed it gently.

Somewhat itchy.

The ballpoint pen that had been scribbling rapidly on the scratch paper suddenly dragged out a long streak and then froze stiffly. Gu Qingqing looked at Gu Fe, who was smiling brightly and her expression carrying a hint of childlike pride, and for some reason, her tongue pressed nervously against the roof of her mouth as her chest rose and fell slightly.

As her heartbeat quickened, Gu Qingqing’s face finally turned uncontrollably red.

Gu Fei smiled as she leaned back, picked up Gu Qingqing’s scratch paper and glanced over it. Then she looked up and said with a proud tilt of her head, “Not bad, you did it right.”

Gu Fei stretched lazily and stood up, “Gu Qingqing, starting tomorrow, I’ll make a study plan for you. Anyway, I review my own stuff every night anyway, so we can study together. That way you won’t have to be so dumb, drowning yourself in endless practice questions till late at night. What, are you planning to stop sleeping altogether?”

“I’m heading back for tonight,” Gu Fei mumbled as she got up.

“Gu Fei…” Gu Qingqing suddenly turned around, sitting in her chair and looking up at her.

At this time, the blush on Gu Qingqing’s face had not completely dissipated, and her dark pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of fog. Gu Fei recalled the sensation of touching her earlobe just moments ago, and her body suddenly froze. Between the two of them, it felt as if an air of something called ambiguity was quietly swirling.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Fei took a small step back and asked in a low voice.

Gu Qingqing asked in a low voice, “Today at school, I heard them call you Sister Fei?”

“Eh…?” The moment she heard the nickname Sister Fei, Gu Fei’s cheeks instantly flushed, “T-That’s just what they randomly call me! I’m not— I’m not some campus tyrant or anything!”

Gu Qingqing：“……”

Gu Xiao Fei, it seems like you just gave yourself away.

Gu Qingqing asked softly, “But Gu Fei, I feel like they are very afraid of you?”

“Ahem…” Gu Fei cleared her throat. Seeing the curious look in Gu Qingqing’s eyes, she knew she couldn’t dodge the question, so she explained, “Although  I don’t look like an Alpha, and my physical strength is not as good as a normal Alpha, my pheromone concentration is very high. So other Alphas in the school are a little afraid of my pheromones.”

Gu Qingqing blinked, “And then?”

Gu Fei had no choice but to continue, “But the reason they treat me like some school tyrant is because back in first year, there was this omega girl who went into differentiation on an empty street, and her pheromones attracted a few alpha punks from the nearby vocational school. I happened to be out and passed by that street, so I used my pheromones to scare them off. I don’t even know how it happened, but the story got more and more exaggerated until people were saying I knocked out several of them with a single punch and became this terrifying school tyrant.”

By the time she got to the end, Gu Fei was overwhelmed with embarrassment. She covered her face and shook her head vigorously.

Gu Qingqing also chuckled softly.

Gu Fei shot her an exasperated glare, “You are not allowed to mention ‘Sister Fei’ in front of me again! And definitely not allowed to call me that! Absolutely not, not, not!”

Gu Qingqing nodded earnestly, “Mm, I’ve already forgotten about it—eh? Gu Fei, what did you just say?”

Gu Qingqing put on a completely serious face, acting in a way that was not at all realistic, but she still made Gu Fei laugh.

“Alright then, I’m heading back for today. Gu Qingqing, go to bed early.” Gu Fei waved her hand, but just as she reached her own room, Gu Qingqing’s door unexpectedly opened again.

Gu Fei looked over in confusion.

“Gu Fei, I…” Gu Qingqing stood by the door, hiding her fingers behind her back, and said with her head down, “I made you angry today…I’m sorry.”

Gu Fei paused for a moment, lifted her head, and said, “It’s fine, I’m not mad at you at all!”

“Then…good night?”

“Good night, good night, sleep early!”

…

…

“Gu Xiao Fei!”

The next morning, not long after Gu Fei arrived in the classroom, she heard Xi Wan‘s excited voice.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Fei looked at her helplessly.

Xi Wan sat in front of Gu Fei, her face full of curiosity, but she also acted as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, blinking her big eyes.

Gu Fei：“……”

Gu Fei: “Ask whatever you want to ask.”

Xi Wan couldn’t wait to ask, “Honestly, you and your sister…have a good relationship?”

“Yeah.” Gu Fei nodded.

Even if she and Gu Qingqing were still practically strangers a few days ago, after spending these past days together, they definitely counted as friends by now!

“But I heard…things aren’t that harmonious between you two? And you didn’t want to take me to meet her either…” Xi Wan lowered her voice, “Gu Fei, tell me, Gu Qingqing, is she really an illegitimate child? I promise I won’t tell anyone!”

“What kind of nonsense is that?!” Gu Fei’s brows tightened sharply, and her pheromones almost burst out in the classroom again. She held herself back and asked, “Xi Wan,what have you been hearing all day long?”

“I heard…that last Monday at lunch, you snatched Gu Qingqing’s food in the cafeteria and made her cry. Then during PE yesterday, you stormed into her classroom, flipped her desk, and gave her a real beating,” Xi Wan recalled.

“Ha—?” Gu Fei was completely stunned, her face practically screaming, ‘What are you talking about? How come I don’t know anything about this?’

Seeing Gu Fei’s expression, Xi Wan was also a little confused, “But, I saw the photos…” She said hesitantly.

Gu Fei snapped out of her daze, the corner of her eye twitching slightly as she said irritably, “What photos? That gossip group again?”

Xi Wan nodded quickly, hurriedly pulled out her phone, scrolled to last night’s chat logs, and handed it to Gu Fei.

Haicheng High School Gossip Group, Anonymous: [Gu Qingqing really is an illegitimate daughter, this confirms it. On Monday noon, I saw with my own eyes that she got scolded by Sister Fei until she cried. Then during yesterday’s PE class, Sister Fei went to cause trouble for her again, flipped her desk and all, haha.]

Anonymous: [photo.jpg]

This anonymous user posted three photos in total. The first one was taken in the cafeteria, showing Gu Fei ferociously snatching Gu Qingqing’s food tray. Normally, Gu Fei looks cute, even when she’s angry, it’s more “fiercely adorable” than truly mean, but because of the lighting and angle in the photo, she really does look a bit vicious.

The second photo was taken after Gu Fei turned around and left, with Gu Qingqing lying on the table, looking like she was crying.

The third photo was taken during yesterday’s PE class. The person who took it seemed to be standing in the hallway across from the regular class, so the distance was quite far. As a result, only two blurry figures can be seen inside the classroom. Gu Fei was standing with one hand near Gu Qingqing’s desk, it really did look, at first glance, like she was flipping the desk.

Xi Wan pointed at the first two photos and whispered, “Look…you’re obviously scolding her and making her cry.”

Gu Fei didn’t let Xi Wan see her doing system tasks precisely to avoid this kind of misunderstanding, but in the end, it still happened. She rolled her eyes at Xi Wan, exasperated, “Do I look like someone who’d make people cry by yelling at them? Have you ever heard me swear before?”

At this moment, Gu Fei’s aura was intense, but rather than seeming truly intimidating, she looked more like a child throwing a tantrum, she had no deterrent power at all.

Xi Wan blinked and said weakly, “No, but in the photo, she is indeed crying.”

Gu Fei was nearly driven mad by Xi Wan’s cluelessness, so angry that she was practically fuming from all seven orifices, “……”
