Transmigrated as a Scumbag Alpha, I'm a Salted Fish on a Dating Show (GL) - Chapter 10

The amusement park staff approached, opening the safety restraints for everyone one by one.

It wasn’t until the staff drew near that various sounds re-entered Gu Chixue’s world.

[Oh my god, I swear I’ll never touch this damn thing again in my life.]

[I felt like my heart was about to burst out of my throat just now.]

[Next time, I’m definitely going to coax my friends to come play; I can’t suffer this alone.] Such miserable complaints were endless.

But these complicated sounds could not hide the sound of Gu Chixue’s heart beating like a morning bell in her chest, and her emotions fluctuated with the rhythm of her heartbeat.

[What was that feeling just now? What was that unfamiliar emotion? Why did I feel protective of Ye Rou at that moment?] Gu Chixue kept questioning herself inwardly, trying to find the answer.

But her actions at this moment were destined to be futile. Having lived two lives, not counting her original body’s experiences, she had truly been “SOLO from the womb” until now.

In her world, the concept of love was as clean as a blank slate. She had never considered the correct answer, that she might be falling for Ye Rou, as an option.

So, her conclusion was that she must keep her distance from Ye Rou! This person looked soft and weak, but unexpectedly, she was a seductive female demoness.

In the future, whenever she recalled this experience, Gu Chixue wished she could travel back in time and give herself two hard slaps, [I’ll teach you, you female demoness! You female demoness!]

If she had understood her feelings today, perhaps their romantic path wouldn’t have encountered so many bumps.

Ye Rou looked at the changing expressions on Gu Chixue’s face, saying with concern, “Are you really okay?”

“Ah, yes, yes, I’m fine! I was just calming my heartbeat. The ride you picked was too scary!” Gu Chixue jolted awake, feigning tears, her face full of grievance as if Ye Rou had done something outrageous to her.

Ye Rou saw that Gu Chixue could still make such vivid expressions, and most of her worry dissipated.

An excited sparkle returned to her face, and she joked, “Hey, you’re an Alpha, and a triple-S level top Alpha at that. Are you really that scared?” She looked at Gu Chixue with an expression that said, Are you trying to fool me again?

“What about being triple-S level? Triple-S level Alphas are people too! I gathered immense courage to play this with you, and you still talk to me like that!” Gu Chixue clutched her heart with a wounded expression, attempting to use this as an excuse to create distance between them.

Ye Rou quickly clasped her hands together in front of her chest, her deer-like eyes looking pitifully at Gu Chixue as she apologized: “Alright, alright, then to thank you for the huge sacrifice you made for me today, how about I treat you to a big meal another day?”

Gu Chixue’s heart, which had intended to create distance, was swayed by the mention of a big meal. Looking at the charming Ye Rou in front of her, she thought: [Hiss, as long as I don’t end up with this female demoness by the end of the show, I can avoid a tragic ending, right? There’s still so much time. Hmm, no rush, no rush.]

“Okay, then it’s a happy decision!” Gu Chixue extended her hand, trying to high-five Ye Rou to seal the oath.

Ye Rou looked at Gu Chixue’s eyes lighting up at the mention of a big meal and wanted to laugh a little, but she managed to hold it in, thinking she should save her some face in front of the cameras.

Clap! Ye Rou bit her lower lip hard, suppressing a laugh, and raised her hand to lightly touch Gu Chixue’s high-raised hand.

The audience watching on screen heard their agreement in its entirety.

[Heh, what a cunning Alpha! She’ll stop at nothing for food, even throwing away her Alpha dignity!]

[What a trick! Gu Chixue is truly a scumbag Alpha; her methods are so clever. If I learned half of what she knows, would I still be worried about finding a partner?]

[Learned it, learned it! First, an Alpha must learn to act pitiful to hook an Omega.]

[Upstairs, you first need to have the same looks as Gu Chixue. Otherwise, even if you’re truly pitiful, no one will come to comfort you.]

[That hits hard, buddy!]

Afterward, the two played many other interesting rides at the amusement park. Whenever they approached a thrilling attraction, Ye Rou would always stare at Gu Chixue with dewy eyes, not speaking, but a thousand words couldn’t convey the playful pleading and anticipation in her eyes.

Gu Chixue always wanted to refuse, but as soon as she met Ye Rou’s eyes, she couldn’t say anything.

After every thrilling ride, she and Ye Rou would secretly curse themselves for being weak and unable to resist temptation, vowing not to agree to anything else. But every time, their carefully constructed psychological defenses would crumble under Ye Rou’s coquettish tone and eyes full of anticipation. This happened repeatedly, and they seemed to enjoy it immensely.

In truth, Gu Chixue had already adapted to such thrilling rides after the drop tower, but she didn’t realize that her repeated rejections were merely a desire to see Ye Rou act coquettishly towards her.

The clouds, scorched by the setting sun, churned like fire in the sky. The massive sun slowly descended into the depths of the horizon. Night covered the world like a dark curtain, and lights lit up one by one along the streets. Finally, Ye Rou and Gu Chixue returned to the villa, thoroughly satisfied.

As they opened the door, four pairs of eyes stared at them simultaneously.

Gu Chixue, beaming, greeted everyone: “Hello, you’re all back? Did you have a fun day?”

Lin Fengran, seeing them return, quickly got up and came over to greet them.

He reached out and took the numerous bags from Gu Chixue’s hands, then whispered in her ear, “Don’t even get me started. Today was boring. Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng were too scary.”

Gu Chixue looked at him, puzzled, signaling with her eyes: [What do you mean? What happened to you guys?]

Ye Rou also looked at Lin Fengran, with a somewhat unreadable expression.

At this moment, Xie Qingcheng and Zhou Qian also walked over with smiles on their faces, circling around Ye Rou, showing concern and casually asking about her date.

Zhou Qian looked at Ye Rou and asked, “I heard you two went to the amusement park today. How was it? Did you have fun?”

Xie Qingcheng also stared intently at Ye Rou, trying to discern any dissatisfaction or awkwardness from her expression.

However, Ye Rou’s reaction greatly disappointed them. She excitedly began: “It was fantastic! We practically tried every ride at the amusement park, even the so-called scariest drop tower.”

“You wouldn’t believe Gu Chixue’s reaction afterward; it was hilarious. I told her I’d treat her to a big meal if she agreed to go on other rides with me.” With that, Ye Rou turned her head and huffed playfully at Gu Chixue.

Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng saw that Ye Rou’s expression seemed genuine, and regret flowed into their eyes as they thought: [I should have picked the ‘toy’ card too!]

“Alright, let’s go inside. Why are we all standing here?” Gu Chixue led the way into the living room.

Wang Meng, seeing everyone return, forced a smile on her previously frustrated face and greeted Gu Chixue and Ye Rou.

“What did you all pick? Where did you go today?” Gu Chixue, sinking into her exclusive single-seater sofa, asked lazily.

Zhou Qian sat next to Ye Rou after she sat down and looked at Gu Chixue, saying, “The four of us made crafts today. Our hands are covered in clay.”

Gu Chixue was surprised: “All four of you together? You didn’t all pick ‘sculpture,’ did you?”

“No, Mengmeng and I picked ‘animal,’ and Sister Cheng and Brother Qian picked ‘sculpture.’ Then the director arranged for us to go to the sculpture museum together,” Lin Fengran chimed in.

A flicker of amusement crossed Ye Rou’s eyes, and she asked interestedly, “Four people? That sounds lively. So they made you do sculptures?”

Lin Fengran nodded, scratching his head with a slightly awkward expression: “Yeah, but we didn’t do very well, hahaha.”

“Why didn’t you choose ‘sculpture’ yesterday?” Zhou Qian asked Ye Rou directly.

Xie Qingcheng also fixed her gaze on Ye Rou upon hearing this. She too wanted to know the reason. Initially, she thought someone like Ye Rou, who exuded an artistic aura, would be more interested in sculpture. She was surprised to have guessed wrong.

Ye Rou tilted her head and said calmly, “I’m not good at crafts, and I’ve never been interested in them since I was a child.”

“At first, I just wanted to go play, but I didn’t expect it to be an amusement park. That was a big surprise,” she said, recalling the day’s experiences, her eyes smiling as she involuntarily glanced at Gu Chixue.

Xie Qingcheng sighed: “I wish I had chosen ‘toy’ too. I wanted to go to the amusement park as well.” Of course, whether she genuinely just wanted to go to the amusement park was something only she knew.

Ye Rou showed no reaction to her words, as if she hadn’t heard them.

The atmosphere grew dull again. Gu Chixue sat observing everyone’s expressions, generally knowing what they were all thinking.

Seeing Ye Rou’s indifferent demeanor towards them, an inexplicable emotion arose in her heart. She didn’t know what it was, but it didn’t feel bad.

“Have you all eaten?” Gu Chixue asked.

Lin Fengran nodded: “Yes, we ate out before coming back.”

“Wow, that’s great! Then I’m going to the kitchen to make something to eat; I haven’t eaten yet.” Gu Chixue stood up from the sofa. After taking two steps, she turned back to Ye Rou: “What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you today.”

Ye Rou’s interest was piqued. She stood up and quickly caught up with Gu Chixue, saying, “You can make anything? I’m very picky with flavors. If it’s not good later, I’ll laugh at you, alright?”

“Hmph! Underestimating me, are you? Just wait, don’t go eating your own tongue,” Gu Chixue retorted, instantly annoyed. To dare to doubt a foodie’s cooking skills was truly unforgivable!

Ye Rou looked at her arrogant demeanor and found it amusing, yet her words still struck: “Alright, then I’ll have to see if the food you make is as delicious as you describe!”

Everyone watched Ye Rou and Gu Chixue’s conversation and expressions when they were together, which they had never shown when with others.

They clearly felt the difference. Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng, seeing this, regretted even more having drawn the worst lot yesterday. If they had gone to the amusement park with Ye Rou today, would they also have become so familiar with her?
