Transmigrated as a Cannon Fodder Alpha in a Scum Alpha Novel (GL) - Chapter 23.3
After so many NGs, even Fu Suihan, who was meant to hold the dagger to her neck, had a change in her eyes. This posture was too strange; unlike the ambiguous atmosphere of only two people in the afternoon, the surrounding gazes were another kind of stimulant. As long as Fu Suihan leaned down slightly, she could kiss Song Shixue’s lips.
But she couldn’t.
Fu Suihan bit her lip, coming to her senses. After another NG, she washed her face during the break and sprayed more inhibitor on herself, preparing to finish work with Song Shixue only the next morning.
She repeatedly calmed her breathing, controlling her inexplicable desires. After preparing thoroughly, she returned to the set. Unexpectedly, in the short time she had been away, the previously disgruntled staff had completely shed their fatigue and were now enthusiastically praising Qi Yuan and Song Shixue.
In a few words, Fu Suihan understood the reason—
Qi Yuan was clearly shaken by Song Shixue’s performance and began to genuinely question the disadvantages of staying up all night filming. After much thought, she finally relented and agreed to give them a day off tomorrow.
Song Shixue’s eyes were also much clearer. She was chewing candy, listening to everyone chat. Seeing Fu Suihan approach, she even moved over to make room for her.
Fu Suihan sat beside her: “Are you okay now?”
Song Shixue, dressed in pure white inner garments, appeared even more slender. Since her face was already pale, the makeup artist had only applied some powder to her face and didn’t interfere further, so she naturally didn’t notice the marks on the back of her neck.
Hearing this, Song Shixue propped her chin and said, “It wasn’t a difficult scene.”
Fu Suihan’s eyes held a slight smile: “Not a difficult scene, yet Movie Queen Song had so many NGs?”
Song Shixue bit down on the candy: “That was just an accident.”
Fu Suihan shrugged, as if not wanting to argue with her. Song Shixue, rarely put in such a spot, rolled over and began to read her script again.
Although she said that, Fu Suihan understood that it was indeed an accident. If it weren’t for the sudden events of the afternoon, this scene wouldn’t have been repeated so many times.
But they both tacitly kept the secret, enjoying the feeling of sharing it.
At this moment, with both of them adjusted, the scene naturally passed in one take. Qi Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, wiping away sweat, even suspecting that Song Shixue had deliberately made her give them a day off. But time was too tight, and before she could find fault with the other party, the assistant director was already urging the stunt double to enter the stage—
Because the filming of “For the Emperor” was rushed, there was no time to train the actors. Most of the fight scenes in the entire drama were performed by professionals.
Qi Yuan originally intended for Fu Suihan to simply do a few flimsy movements and muddle through the scene. However, the female Alpha was serious and exchanged several highly professional moves with the martial artist.
Seeing the two becoming increasingly serious in front of the camera, clearly about to turn acting into a sparring session, Qi Yuan promptly called a halt and looked at Song Shixue in disbelief.
Song Shixue, however, merely watched Fu Suihan languidly throughout, as if she had expected her to know these basic moves.
During the next take, Fu Suihan restrained her movements, bit into a bl00d pack, and stumbled through the shot, clutching her heart. Her costume was soaked with bl00d. When she stood still again, she casually wiped the corner of her mouth, and the bl00d spread further across her face. Her phoenix eyes were cold and sharp, and she gazed flirtatiously at the camera, appearing even more enchanting.
Even Song Shixue paused for a moment. Qi Yuan couldn’t suppress her voice: “This clip must be released as a behind-the-scenes! ”
The assistant director nodded repeatedly.
After this scene, “For the Emperor” was officially wrapped. Her neck was also stained red with the bl00d pack. In the makeup room, the makeup artist wanted to wipe her clean but was refused by Fu Suihan, who wasn’t accustomed to close contact with others.
The makeup artist didn’t insist. After removing her wig and makeup, she left. Fu Suihan was wiping herself, her mind still preoccupied with Song Shixue, who was still chatting about the script with Qi Yuan. Until the hand holding the makeup remover wipe was grasped from behind.
Song Shixue leaned against her shoulder, looking at her from the side. In the mirror, it looked as if she was kissing her cheek.
“Shall I help you remove it?”
She chuckled softly, her breath like orchids, lightly brushing against Fu Suihan’s neck. Fu Suihan recoiled slightly and whispered, “…Oh.”
Song Shixue then sat beside her. She casually wet a tissue and said, “Your fight scene today was good. Have you learned it before?”
Fu Suihan paused, then said, “A little. Before entering the entertainment industry.”
The original owner’s swapped identity was a secret. Most of the past experiences were fake stories released by the Fu family to mislead netizens. Answering this way usually wouldn’t cause problems, because even if someone suspected, they wouldn’t waste money and effort to verify a boring matter—
But the questioner was Song Shixue.
She had the ability, the money, and the leisure. If she truly wanted to investigate, nothing could be hidden from her. At that time, the fact that she wasn’t “Fu Suihan” would surely be known to her. Thinking this, Fu Suihan felt no fear at all; instead, she wished that day would come sooner.
However, Song Shixue didn’t have such a strong desire for knowledge. Hearing this, she merely lifted her eyelids lazily, responded casually, then gently placed the tissue on Fu Suihan’s neck: “Very professional movements. Qi Yuan likes you a lot—don’t dodge.”
Fu Suihan lowered her head, obediently staying still. In her heart, she recalled Qi Yuan’s favorability—80, indeed very high. But compared to Song Shixue’s two thousand, it wasn’t even a fraction.
She felt an inexplicable irritation. It was an occasion for just the two of them, yet Song Shixue had to mention others. She also remembered the woman’s evasive answer back at the hotel. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly asked, “Are you like this with other people too?”
The question was without context, yet Song Shixue answered naturally: “It depends on who you’re talking about.”
Fu Suihan hadn’t expected her to actually respond instead of just saying “no.” After a few seconds of silence, she began listing names: “Fu An?”
Song Shixue shook her head: “I don’t like Betas.”
Fu Suihan frowned: “Qi Yuan?”
Song Shixue said, “I respect all sexual orientations, but an OO relationship isn’t for me.”
“…”
Only these two were intimate with her on the set. Seeing Fu Suihan lower her head again, Song Shixue smiled sweetly: “Is Alpha that hard to choose? There are only two Alphas in the cast. I like one of them, and I’m only good to her. Who do you think she is?”
Two Alphas: Chi Qiu and Fu Suihan. Song Shixue couldn’t possibly like the former, leaving only her as the answer.
“About the video, was it you?”
Fu Suihan looked up, her gaze bewildered yet clear. Staring at her, Song Shixue’s heart softened: “Does it matter whether it was or wasn’t?”
She said patiently, “Fu Suihan, your role isn’t because of me; it’s because of your talent. Qi Yuan choosing you only proves you’re the best. She’s not as talented as you, nor as good a person. It’s normal for her to be eliminated.”
“She wants to be famous, so let’s make her famous,” Song Shixue said. “What you can’t do, I’ll do for you.”
“I won’t hurt you.” Song Shixue’s eyes were warm. As she said this, she tilted her head slightly and smiled slyly, “Trust me, okay?”
When she smiled, her eyes elongated, making her look exceptionally gentle. After such a combination of moves, Fu Suihan couldn’t say “no.” After a long while, she stiffly changed the subject: “What did Director Qi say to you just now?”
“Said you’re good-looking and wants to cast you as the lead in her next play.”
Fu Suihan: “…………”
Isn’t one “For the Emperor” enough? Wasn’t she here to be a cool female supporting character? Why is she suddenly supposed to focus on acting?
Seeing her expression change, Song Shixue curved her lips into a smile: “She wants to cast good-looking people as leads. She might not choose you.”
Fu Suihan inwardly breathed a sigh of relief, but didn’t show it on her face. Instead, she asked, “What if I want to?”
As the words fell, she herself froze, realizing that human desire truly grows exponentially—a day ago, she had never imagined being this close to Song Shixue. Her fantasies were just that, fantasies. She forced herself to control her inner desires.
Who knew that after only a few hours of being together, she, who already possessed a part of Song Shixue, was still greedily wanting more. Like a young beast that had just found warmth for the first time, craving more affection.
Fortunately, Song Shixue not only didn’t reject her desire but also relaxed, thoroughly pleased. She curled her lips, and her voice was casual: “Go if you want to. Come with investment, full investment, it doesn’t matter, as long as you’re happy.”
With a soft click, Fu Suihan realized Song Shixue had been talking to her with a candy in her mouth the whole time.
Unbeknownst to Fu Suihan, Song Shixue had already stopped her movements. She looked at Fu Suihan frankly, her throat moving. She straightened the corner of her clothes, revealing her fair neck.
Stared at like this, Fu Suihan felt a sense of danger, yet she couldn’t help but want to succumb to it.
Night fell. Outside the makeup room, faint figures walked side by side, discussing the filming plan for the day after tomorrow. Fu Suihan felt inexplicably nervous and wanted to divert Song Shixue’s attention, but then heard the Omega softly ask, “Was the bl00d pack bitter?”
Fu Suihan had rinsed her mouth before removing her makeup. She had bitten several bl00d packs, and the discomfort had been minimized. After thinking for a moment, she said, “A little bitter, very astringent.”
Song Shixue curved her eyes: “Candy is sweet. Want a taste?”
Fu Suihan was about to change the subject, thinking she was offering her candy, and agreed. With a breath, the woman’s slender and strong fingers lifted her chin.
Song Shixue kissed her. The next second, Fu Suihan tasted the sweetness of strawberries.
