Transmigrated as a Scumbag Alpha, I'm a Salted Fish on a Dating Show (GL) - Chapter 30
As soon as the two entered the villa’s entrance hall, Lin Fengran, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, spotted them.
Seeing Gu Chixue and Ye Rou appear together, he quickly went up to them, his face clearly showing happiness.
“Sister Gu, Sister Rou, you’re finally back! I was so worried about your situation earlier.”
“It’s nothing, we went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said Ye Rou doesn’t have any major issues, just a bit of low bl00d sugar. She just needs to rest,” Gu Chixue quickly interjected, giving a subtle look towards the camera.
Ye Rou’s kidnapping, no matter how you looked at it, was a scandal that couldn’t be exposed to the public eye. They still needed to avoid the topic in front of the camera.
Lin Fengran caught Gu Chixue’s hint and immediately understood, smoothly continuing with the given reason, “Oh, I see. Sister Rou, you usually work too hard. You really need to take care of your health outside of work.”
“Thank you for your concern,” Ye Rou also smiled and nodded with goodwill.
Gu Chixue walked in first, sinking into her usual single armchair. She leaned back, let out a long sigh, looking utterly relaxed and comfortable.
She asked casually, “Why are you here alone? Where are Zhou Qian and the others?”
“Oh, didn’t the director say there would be new guests today? They’re all in their rooms getting ready,” Lin Fengran replied, also sitting back on the sofa.
“Getting ready?” Gu Chixue raised an eyebrow, her expression a little perplexed. Do they need to prepare something to welcome new guests?
Gu Chixue, who had just returned and hadn’t yet figured out the subsequent procedures, was about to ask when she saw Ye Rou standing in front of her, looking at her with a conflicted expression.
No, it should be said she was looking at the single sofa Gu Chixue was sitting on.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Chixue looked down. “Is there something wrong with this chair?”
“Um, your sofa looks very comfortable. Can I sit with you?” Ye Rou said, sounding a little embarrassed.
Gu Chixue: “…”
If you want to stick with me, just stick with me. What’s this about comfort? Hey!
Gu Chixue’s face was full of black lines. Only now did she understand what Ye Fei’s parting glance meant.
Those eyes clearly spelled out four big words: “Good luck.”
Ye Rou’s deer-like eyes, wet and glistening, stared at her, as if saying, If you dare to refuse, I’ll cry for you to see.
Gu Chixue truly had no way to deal with those eyes. She shifted her body and said helplessly, “Come on.”
“Yay!” Ye Rou bounced over happily.
She wrapped her hands around Gu Chixue’s arm and nestled tightly beside her. The refreshing scent of sherry filled her nostrils, and a sweet smile adorned the girl’s face.
Two people sat on the single sofa, making it feel a bit crowded, but Ye Rou thought the design was simply brilliant and deserved a five-star review for the designer.
Both women were stunning beauties. Sitting together now, one with a charming smile, the other with eyes full of helplessness and indulgence, this scene, frozen in the bright afternoon, seemed to make the entire space even more radiant.
Seeing such a scene, Lin Fengran’s mouth dropped open.
This, this, this… what did I miss? They can be this intimate on camera after only one night apart? Lin Fengran was inwardly shocked.
But seeing his “CP” acting like this, he couldn’t help but inwardly squeal like a chicken. If the people involved weren’t right there, he would have wanted to stand up, flail his arms wildly, and roar, “One Night First Snow is real!”
“Ahem, ahem,” Gu Chixue, seeing the shocked expression on Lin Fengran’s face, felt a little awkward. She leaned close to Ye Rou’s ear and whispered, “There are cameras here, restrain yourself a bit, or your cool persona will really be gone.”
“If it’s gone, it’s gone. I’ve never cared about personas,” Ye Rou said indifferently.
Gu Chixue choked, then shot the girl a sidelong glance, muttering inwardly, As expected of the Best Actress, so willful.
Then, ignoring her, she looked at Lin Fengran, feigning seriousness, “What’s the schedule for the afternoon? We just got back and aren’t quite clear.”
Lin Fengran greatly admired his idol, who could remain so composed with a beautiful woman by her side.
He also reined in his “shipping” excitement and said seriously, “Well, we’re all going out for a meal later, and a new guest will arrive during the meal. The director hasn’t said the specific details, keeping it mysterious.”
“Then what are they preparing? I thought they were preparing gifts for the new guest,” Gu Chixue said, a little oddly.
“I don’t know either, maybe they’re getting themselves ready, trying to leave a good impression on the new guest…”
“Why aren’t you going?”
“Hehe, meeting Sister Gu on this show is my biggest gain. As for romance, I’ll leave it to fate.”
The sunlight from outside fell on Lin Fengran’s handsome face. His half-long curly hair cascaded over his forehead, neatly held in place by a stylish hat, making his face appear even smaller. Paired with a simple and refreshing wide-cut long T-shirt, his entire being exuded a strong youthful vibe.
The artistic sense of a Japanese-style boy was perfectly embodied in him.
Gu Chixue, with half-closed, squinting eyes, quipped, “You don’t look bad either. You weren’t already dressed up before we came back, were you?”
“Hahaha, I didn’t think Sister Gu would see through me!” Lin Fengran burst out laughing.
Ye Rou was amused by their conversation. She gave Lin Fengran a thumbs-up, praising him genuinely, “You are definitely the most handsome Omega on set today.”
Hmm, as long as you don’t try to take Gu Chixue from me, you’re the best!
“Thank you, Sister Rou. You’re definitely the most beautiful Omega in Teacher Gu’s heart too.” The two began their commercial flattery.
Lin Fengran’s words made Ye Rou’s heart bubble with happiness.
The smile on her face became even more sincere. Good kid, you have excellent taste. I’ll look out for you from now on.
Amidst their pleasant conversation, the director’s voice came through the loudspeaker, announcing it was time to depart.
Xie Qingcheng and the others emerged from their rooms. As soon as they reached downstairs, they saw Gu Chixue and Ye Rou intimately seated together.
They all revealed expressions of astonishment. These two have already confirmed their relationship? They’re even squeezing onto a single sofa, being all affectionate?
Xie Qingcheng and Zhou Qian exchanged glances, both seeing defeat in the other’s eyes.
When it came to attracting Ye Rou, Gu Chixue was like the silver moon suspended in the night, her brilliance completely eclipsing the light of surrounding fireflies.
Ye Rou’s eyes could only see that alluring moonlight.
Wang Meng was the first to speak: “Sister Rou, you’re back? Were you okay last night?”
Ye Rou saw the others approaching. The smile on her face didn’t change, but inexplicably, Zhou Qian and the others felt that the person in front of them seemed a little distant.
The girl shook her head and said, “Thank you for your concern. I’m fine now.”
Zhou Qian’s former ardor faded. Seeing Ye Rou and Gu Chixue sitting together, he knew that holding Ye Rou’s hand was now impossible.
A beautiful woman was desirable, but he wasn’t someone without principles.
He nodded, his tone sincere: “It’s good that you’re alright.”
Xie Qingcheng still seemed a little unwilling. A thought crossed her mind, and she asked with a touch of malice, “Are you two together now, so intimate?”
This question was difficult to answer. Admitting it would cause a fan uproar; denying it would create a rift between the two. No matter how they responded, the consequences wouldn’t be good.
But Xie Qingcheng hadn’t expected that Ye Rou simply didn’t care, and Gu Chixue’s current mindset wasn’t focused on this.
Ye Rou’s eyes sharpened for a moment, then softened again.
A playful smile touched her lips, and she said directly, “Not yet, but I do like her. I’m going to pursue her.”
She leaned against Gu Chixue, her proud little eyes scanning the room, as if announcing that the person beside her was already her possession.
Everyone listened, their eyes suddenly widening, especially Lin Fengran.
He raised a hand to cover his mouth, his wide eyes screaming, “Sister Rou is amazing, you’re so daring! I’ve switched teams, I want to be your fan!”
The bullet comments also went wild. They never imagined that after half a day, the moment the two appeared, they would deliver such shocking news.
The “CP” fans of the two instantly felt like it was New Year’s, for what could be more thrilling than the main characters themselves putting a lock on their “CP”?
Love it, love it! What kind of divine straight-shooter Omega is Ye Rou?
One Night First Snow is real! This is the first time in my life I’ve shipped the right CP, I’m so happy!
I’m a fan, I’m a fan! I used to not care much for Ye Rou, but just for how brave she is today, I’ll be her fan for life!
But “CP” fans were ultimately a minority. More prevalent were the voices of dissatisfaction from solo fans, with some even resorting to foul language online.
For a time, the tag “Ye Rou confesses to Gu Chixue” was quickly created, with a “HOT” tag next to the topic, soaring to the top of the entertainment trending list like a rocket.
The “One Night First Snow” CP super topic square was instantly flooded with massive traffic. Many confused people came to catch up, and thus, things spiraled out of control, pulling them into the deep abyss of the two.
The director in the studio could barely stop smiling. This sudden surge in popularity was like a pie falling from the sky, landing squarely on his head.
He no longer had to worry about the program’s ratings.
He was now already conceptualizing what segments to create in the future to allow their relationship to progress even further.
Ye Rou is truly something. When there’s something to say, she really dares to say it.
While the director here was delighted, Ye Fei, on the other hand, was inwardly cursing. Her fingers flew across her phone, tapping away.
She was notifying the public relations department to handle emergency public relations.
Just then, a call came in. Ye Fei took a deep breath, then answered the phone.
A calm voice came from the other end: “Organize all of Gu Chixue’s information and send it to me, and also conduct a psychological assessment of her.”
“Okay, I’ll give it to you tonight when I get home,” Ye Fei replied respectfully.
After hanging up, she sighed inwardly, “Ye Rou, Ye Rou, you certainly know how to give me challenges.”
She then made a few more calls, notifying all studio staff to attend a meeting.
Gu Chixue keenly detected Xie Qingcheng’s trap in her words. Just as she was about to respond, Ye Rou unexpectedly beat her to it.
Even more unexpected was the nature of that response.
She also turned her head in surprise to look at the girl leaning on her, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She was both touched and somewhat at a loss.
Although Gu Chixue had no experience in relationships, she wasn’t emotionally dense.
She wasn’t unaware of Ye Rou’s current feelings for her, and she also knew that she could likely avoid the fate of ultimately being eliminated by Ye Rou.
But her death at that specific point was the predetermined bad ending for the character Gu Chixue, set by the author of this book, or rather, the projection of this world’s will.
In the apocalypse, she was also highly esteemed, becoming a member of the three armed forces’ command department at a young age.
But when she was very young, she heard her parents say that an old man in their village had foretold her destiny when she was still an infant. The final reading of her fate was “Po Jun Star shining, Qi Sha facing Dipper.”
It was said that she would surely become a general, saving many and killing many in the future, but this general star would fall at the peak of her life, during the most critical period.
And her existence would avert a catastrophe.
Gu Chixue’s parents, hearing this, quickly asked what they could do to avoid death.
The old man gave them a strange stone, saying it would help her block the final life-or-death tribulation.
At first, Gu Chixue scoffed at such a story. It was said that spirits couldn’t form after the founding of the nation, so these profound and mysterious things must be deceptive.
However, her parents always insisted that she carry that strange stone with her.
After the disaster, Gu Chixue witnessed too many unheard-of things in the apocalypse, which made her believe that a great hand named “fate” truly existed in the world, controlling everything.
Her ultimate end was indeed as the old man had predicted her destiny. That strange stone could not avert the fated outcome.
Ye Rou, if I am ultimately destined to die, how should I respond to you?
She looked at the girl beside her, who was openly expressing her affection, and for a moment, she was speechless.
