Milk Orange Omega Becomes Popular Through Dating Variety Show [Entertainment Circle] - Chapter 6

“Let me take you somewhere~ it’s super fun…”

“No, thank you.” Pei Yi was very touched, then refused Zhong Lin’s invitation.

Inside the car on the way back, the atmosphere between the two eased considerably—

At least, that’s what Zhong Lin thought.

Zhong Lin herself had a blast all day at Happy Valley, and the cameraman captured many shots of her smiling brightly and sweetly.

Now sitting in the car seat, Zhong Lin’s excitement hadn’t worn off. Her small mouth chattered, and she began to talk to herself: “I played so many rides today~”

“When I was on the rapid river ride, I even met a male Alpha,”

“He chatted with me for ages. Halfway through, he thought the ride was almost over, so he tore off his raincoat,”

“Hmph… who knew there was a big turn after that, and lots of people with water guns at the bottom of the slope~ that guy got drenched like a wet quail, hahahaha, everyone was laughing at him then…”

Pei Yi’s face grew paler and paler. She raised her arm to create distance between herself and Zhong Lin, rubbing her forehead with her thumb. Her voice sounded a little impatient, “Enough, be quiet,”

“I’m tired.”

Zhong Lin “ah”-ed in surprise, then meekly asked, “But didn’t you rest for a long time today?”

Pei Yi: …Heh, my heart is so tired.

[Hahahahahahahaha, poor Yiyi was left hanging all day!!]

[That last line, “But didn’t you rest for a long time today?”, cuts deep hahahaha~]

[The cub went crazy playing and completely forgot about the date hhhhhhhh]

[Yes, yes, yes, the cub’s smile today was the most radiant in the universe, like a spring flower~~]

[Speechless, does Zhong Lin have any manners? Making my Yiyi wait all day! She’s utterly sick!!]

[Zhong Lin is sick +1]

[Person above, no sportsmanship! When the cub wanted to pick your Yiyi, your Yiyi ignored her. Now the cub just likes to play! What’s wrong, is she eating your rice?!]

[Zhong Lin is sick +10086]

••••

The show gave out VIP passes, so there was no need to queue. Zhong Lin played almost every ride she wanted!

Although Zhong Lin was a Bai Ze cub, she was in an ordinary human body.

Her legs felt a little weak and heavy, her head was dizzy, and fatigue washed over her like a tide.

So sleepy…

Zhong Lin’s originally straight posture couldn’t be maintained. Her body leaned against the seat back, her long eyelashes gently trembled, her eyes were bright and watery with sleepiness, her eyelids constantly fighting to stay open, her chin bobbing…

Like a chick pecking at rice.

She was simply too tired and completely fell asleep.

She had a very strange dream.

A girl in a white dress stood by the window. The window was a floor-to-ceiling one, only a short distance from the ground.

The glass window was fully open, the wind was strong, and the billowing curtains rolled back like waves.

The girl’s skirt fluttered in the wind, outlining her slender waist. She was very thin, almost no flesh on her frame. If the night wind blew any harder, she would probably be blown apart.

The girl lowered her head, looking at the floor, seemingly pondering for a while, then looked up at the night sky, her phone dialing a number…

“Beep-beep—The user you are calling is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.”

Dialing again and again, no one answered the girl’s call.

She heard a rustling sound beside her, someone’s foot dragging across the ground repeatedly…

“Thud—” The sound was muffled, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Zhong Lin rushed to the balcony and looked down.

A girl lay in a pool of bl00d, her eyes and the corners of her mouth stained with crimson bl00d, with the exact same eyebrows and eyes as Zhong Lin.

A chill ran down her spine, and her heart felt empty.

Zhong Lin’s brow furrowed slightly, “Don’t…”

A light sneer came from above her head, sounding a little disdainful.

“Don’t what?” A female voice drifted down softly, sounding very familiar.

Zhong Lin shivered, instantly wide awake.

Something light was flicked onto her cheek. Zhong Lin wiped it away, and it was a tissue.

When her fingers touched her face, it felt damp. Could it be… drool?

Pei Yi found out…

How embarrassing.

Zhong Lin quickly rubbed Pei Yi’s tissue haphazardly over her face. As the tissue passed over her nose, she smelled a faint fragrance… It smelled a little sweet, but also a bit sharp, like sweet white grape sparkling wine.

Zhong Lin’s movements paused for a moment, her nose twitching, quietly sniffing the scent on the tissue.

“Aren’t you getting out of the car?” Pei Yi unbuckled her seatbelt, gave her a cold glance, her tone sounding very impatient.

If she could, she really wanted to lock Zhong Lin in the car. Just don’t let this person get out!

Today’s experience was truly terrible.

Pei Yi turned sideways and got out of the car with a “thud,” her heels hitting the ground heavily.

Zhong Lin followed her out. This was not the place they had left in the morning.

After three days of random Alpha-Omega dates, the guests had gained a preliminary understanding of each other. So, after the third day’s dates, the three white nanny vans headed to a villa area.

The guests’ luggage had already been transported by the production team. They were leaving the initial filming base and would be moving into a shared villa.

White fences surrounded the spacious detached villa. Roses bloomed luxuriantly in the yard, and the swing set in the garden seemed to have just been used, swaying back and forth.

Having a group of Alphas and Omegas live together, with both men and women, Alphas and Omegas, and rules supporting mutual selection of all genders, sounded full of freedom…

But in reality, it was like raising poisonous insects (a Chinese idiom for a brutal competition).

The bugle call of war had sounded. Dog food (affectionate moments) and a love triangle (or more complex relationship dynamics) were ahead.

But as a Bai Ze cub, Zhong Lin didn’t understand what this meant. Moving to a new place was just moving… as long as there was good food, drink, and fun~

“Alpha guests stay on the first floor, Omega guests stay on the second floor.”

“Now, we will draw lots. Alpha guests will draw from the pink box on the left, and Omega guests will draw from the white box on the right.”

Zhong Lin reached in and drew room number (201). At the bottom of the card were a few lines of small text,

—Showcase the original vibrant colors of life, wishing you find your beloved one~

—Note: 1. During the program, you must return to the villa every night. You can ask for leave if there are work conflicts, as the program’s filming principle is not to affect the guests’ normal lives.

2. Exchange of contact information is prohibited during your stay.

3. Try to avoid using mobile phones on camera.

4. Before the final pick, you are not allowed to confess your feelings to your desired person in advance.

5. You need to submit anonymous letters every night. Each guest has only one chance per day.

“Everyone can go check out their rooms first, then go record individual interviews.” A staff member raised an A4 paper in hand, pointing to a utility room in the living room on the first floor that served as the “solo interview room.”

Everyone nodded and dispersed.

Pei Yi turned around, ready to find her room.

A staff member called out to Pei Yi: “Teacher Pei, please go in for your solo interview first.”

Pei Yi paused and followed the staff member into the solo interview room.

The director, seeing the youngest Best Actress, and also the biggest star and traffic of the show, smiled like a sunflower:

“Just a simple self-introduction, your wish for coming here, and your preferred type, that’s all.”

Pei Yi nodded softly.

The director was very confident in Pei Yi. Everyone knew that Pei Yi had suddenly faded from the entertainment industry at her peak, but she was once the youngest Best Actress, and her professional skills were top-notch.

The director was very confident in Pei Yi’s performance.

But after the recording began…

“Hello everyone, I’m Pei Yi. It’s a great honor to be here and meet you all. I’m also very happy to receive the invitation for *Thirty-One Days of Heart-Fluttering Challenge*. I hope that through this program, I can achieve my wishes and make my dreams come true.”

The most terrifying thing was the sudden silence.

One minute passed.

Two minutes passed.

The director’s smile completely froze, his tone a little shocked: “That’s it??”

Pei Yi nodded gently: “I’m done.”

The director continued to prompt: “Could you elaborate a bit, what specific wish do you hope to achieve? Or, what specific type of person do you like?”

“I don’t want to say,” Pei Yi said coldly, “That’s personal privacy.”

Her words were concise and to the point, straight to the core. Truly worthy of being the biggest star and youngest Best Actress on this show…

The director was on the verge of tears. He could only purse his lips and silently retract his earlier internal evaluation of Pei Yi. This situation didn’t seem reassuring at all.

The director lightly coughed and handed over an iPad, “First ‘Heart Flutter’ pick. Please choose your favorite Omega guest.”

On the screen were beautiful photos of three Omegas.

Pei Yi’s gaze scanned the other two photos, then settled on the leftmost one—

The girl’s makeup was incredibly heavy, her false eyelashes exaggeratedly long, and her eyeshadow had large, unblended patches of blue glitter, as if she were about to go on stage for a play.

It was the former “Zhong Lin.”

Pei Yi unconsciously curved her lips. She chuckled softly, her voice so faint it was like a whisper.

What the… you can’t even tell it’s the same person as today’s Zhong Lin.

Hmph, so she only saw Zhong Lin’s true face today.

Zhong Lin’s stylist really should be fired and stir-fried.

—What she didn’t know was that Zhong Lin, being an eighteen-line internet nobody, didn’t even have a stylist.

Director: “Hurry up and choose, you only have one minute.”

The countdown on the screen slowly ticked away.

Pei Yi’s brows slightly furrowed. She quietly sighed, “So hard to choose,”

She extended her index finger towards the screen, slowly hovering from left to right—

It wasn’t until the countdown ended and the selection button turned gray that Pei Yi, as if suddenly realizing, let out a soft “heh”: “Why did this suddenly turn gray?”

Director: “…” (Please begin your performance)

Pei Yi handed the iPad to the director. She shook her head slightly, looking a little embarrassed: “I’m sorry, I didn’t make a selection within the allotted time.”

She was sorry?

She was faking it.

It was just the first announcement. Pei Yi didn’t need to choose anyone. In the three days of dates with the three Omega guests, she felt almost no connection.

Except today, Pei Yi felt a completely different, exceptionally strong emotion compared to the previous two days—

This drama queen, Zhong Lin, had finally successfully caught her attention today.

She really wasn’t angry (╬￣皿￣)

••••

The door to the solo interview room suddenly opened. Pei Yi straightened the white blazer draped over her shoulders and slowly walked out of the room.

“Teacher Zhong, come over quickly, the last one just finished recording.” A staff member’s voice echoed from afar.

A familiar figure walked towards her. The girl wore a simple off-the-shoulder white shirt, her legs slender and straight beneath denim shorts.

The corridor was narrow, and the two walked towards each other.

Zhong Lin froze for a moment, not expecting the previous person to go for the solo interview to be Pei Yi. She proactively moved to the left, wanting to give Pei Yi some space.

Coincidentally, Pei Yi had the same idea, almost simultaneously dodging to the right.

Her left was exactly Pei Yi’s right.

Zhong Lin walked quickly with her head down, not paying attention. As they brushed past each other, her shoulder lightly grazed the other’s arm.

Suddenly, her heart panicked. She timidly looked up at Pei Yi.

On the car ride back today, this intensely oppressive atmosphere seemed to have already begun—

Zhong Lin was an Omega. Her height wasn’t short for an Omega, but she was half a shoulder shorter than Pei Yi.

Black flat shoes stopped in front of her. The other person’s dark eyes were slightly narrowed, their upturned eye corners becoming elongated, their gaze sweeping over her, cold as frost. Their head tilted slightly to the side, closing the distance between them.

Only 1cm closer.

“Choose well,” the female voice was low, audible only at their close distance.

Zhong Lin felt Pei Yi’s breath on her ear, warm, with a subtle scent. The warmth climbed to Zhong Lin’s earlobe, and her small ear gradually reddened.

It was like sweet white grape sparkling wine, with a faint wine taste, but more of a sweet fragrance.

Such a familiar scent?

Pei Yi’s voice drifted down from above, like an unintentional greeting, carrying a hint of threat.
