Transmigrated as a Scumbag Alpha, I'm a Salted Fish on a Dating Show (GL) - Chapter 6
The director’s voice came over the broadcast, telling everyone to gather in the villa’s living room.
Everyone emerged from their rooms. As Gu Chixue opened her door, she saw Ye Rou, already in a set of pajamas, yawning and walking sluggishly down the hallway.
The thin silk fabric clung tightly to Ye Rou’s voluptuous curves, and the black lace trim made her fair skin appear even more luminous. Without even seeing her face, just this back view was enough to evoke pity and tenderness.
Gu Chixue stood by her door, watching Ye Rou’s retreating figure, and inexplicably shook her head violently.
A small, black figure appeared in her mind, floating before her and yelling, “Gu Chixue, snap out of it! Is beauty more important, or is good food more important?! There’s so much delicious food in this world waiting for you to conquer!”
“Well, obviously! Food is definitely more important!” Gu Chixue nodded emphatically.
Lin Fengran stood not far away, watching Gu Chixue shake her head. He hesitated, his face full of a conflicted expression: [What should I do if my idol seems to have gone silly? Waiting online, it’s urgent!]
Gu Chixue closed her door. The moment she took a step, she saw Lin Fengran not far away. Her eyes instantly widened, and she leaned back: [Did this kid just see my shameful state? Should I kill him to silence him?]
Lin Fengran inexplicably felt a chill. He hunched his shoulders, met Gu Chixue’s gaze, and quickly walked over, pretending he hadn’t seen anything, laughing, “What a coincidence, Sister Gu! The director just told us to go to the living room. Let’s go together.”
“Let’s go,” Gu Chixue said, looking defeated.
The two walked side by side. As they walked, Gu Chixue felt her companion’s occasional, hesitant glances, and a few dark lines gradually appeared on her forehead.
Finally unable to bear it, Gu Chixue turned her head and glared at Lin Fengran with a murderous look, the meaning in her eyes clear: [If you dare to speak of what just happened, you’re finished!]
Lin Fengran bit his lip, trembling as he suppressed his laughter. Seeing Gu Chixue’s darkened face, he quickly raised his hands in surrender and said seriously, “I know, I understand. I definitely won’t say anything.”
Gu Chixue nodded with satisfaction, giving him an approving look: [You’ve got good sense. You truly are my fan.]
[Hahahahaha, Gu Chixue is getting agitated, she’s getting agitated! That look just now was a threat, it must have been a threat!]
[Lin Fengran’s skeptical expression just now killed me! He’s wondering how his idol could become silly after only half an hour apart.]
[If it weren’t for this show, who would’ve thought Gu Chixue was so goofy? Without that face, she’s like an idiot, it’s hilarious.]
At this moment, in the villa’s living room, everyone sat around the sofa, no one speaking. The atmosphere was slightly dull. Ye Rou sat on the single sofa that Gu Chixue often used, hugging a cushion, lost in thought.
The arrival of Gu Chixue and Lin Fengran broke the stagnant atmosphere.
Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng both nodded to Gu Chixue in greeting.
Ye Rou also looked up at the newcomers, her confusion too thick to dissipate. Gu Chixue’s behavior on the rooftop made her recall the person who helped her out yesterday. Could it be the same person? She wasn’t sure yet.
After Gu Chixue and Lin Fengran sat down, there was a knock at the villa door. Wang Meng jumped up at the sound, her face excited, and quickly walked to open the door, returning with a large prop box.
The director’s voice came over the broadcast: “Inside the prop box are six identical sets of cards. Each set has three cards. Everyone will receive one set of cards. After returning to your rooms, choose one card and give it to the production team. Those who choose the same card will go on a date tomorrow to the corresponding location.”
“Now, everyone, use your phones to anonymously send your ‘heart-fluttering’ message for today. Once you’ve sent it, you may return to your rooms.”
After the announcement, Gu Chixue’s gaze swept across the room, pausing for a moment on Ye Rou before moving on. Finally, her gaze settled on Lin Fengran, and a satisfied smile appeared on her lips: [Good brother, you’re the one!]
Less than two minutes later, Gu Chixue stood up, grabbed the props, put two fingers on her forehead, and with a beaming smile, elegantly motioned to everyone: “I’m going back to sleep first. Good night, everyone.”
[Oh, oh, oh, wife, so Alpha, so cool!]
[This damn woman really knows how to flirt with Omegas, ketui (spitting sound, often used in Chinese memes to express disdain/disapproval playfully).]
[If I had even half her looks, I’d be the prettiest girl in our village too.]
[I bet you, if she doesn’t send it to Ye Rou, I’ll live-stream eating X.]
[Screenshot taken, don’t think you can get away with it!]
Ye Rou watched Gu Chixue’s elegant departing back and couldn’t help but feel a little troubled. Among these three Alphas, the one she felt most comfortable with was definitely Gu Chixue. Her authentic, unpretentious behavior and clear, clean eyes made her feel good.
However, before the show, her agent repeatedly emphasized not getting close to Gu Chixue, which left her conflicted.
Ye Rou looked at the two remaining Alphas on the scene. After much thought, she finally decided to send the message to Gu Chixue.
What should she send? Ye Rou pressed her head with a pair of long, delicate hands, as if in pain. Finally, she seemed to come up with a good idea, and a shallow smile quickly crept into her eyes.
After sending the message, Ye Rou stood up and stretched, her graceful curves fully visible. Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng both couldn’t help but swallow.
She looked at everyone, nodding in acknowledgment. Her outwardly polite smile had become almost instinctive. Her clear, steady voice rang out: “I’ve sent it. Everyone should rest early. See you tomorrow.”
Zhou Qian also showed a wide smile: “Good night, see you tomorrow.”
After Ye Rou left, Xie Qingcheng stood up and walked to Zhou Qian with the same smile: “Good night, see you tomorrow.” Then, without waiting for Zhou Qian’s reaction, she turned and left.
Zhou Qian had a strange expression, as if he had swallowed a fly. He raised his hand to touch his face, falling into self-doubt: [Did I really smile that ugly just now?]
[Hahahahaha, Xie Qingcheng’s imitation is too spot-on! I’m dying of laughter.]
[I’m literally honking like a goose from laughing! Those two aren’t here for romance; the show must have specifically hired them for comedy!]
[Xie Qingcheng is truly a master of sarcasm. She and Zhou Qian can practically be called the sleeping dragons and young phoenix of dating shows.]
[This season is too much! Two masters of sarcasm, two stunning celebrities, one fanboy, and one hype-man. These people don’t look like they’re here to date at all, it’s hilarious.]
Gu Chixue returned to her room, lazily burying herself under the covers. After a while, she turned over and carefully examined the cards in her hand. There were three cards: “Sculpture,” “Toy,” and “Animal.”
Gu Chixue, with a graceful move, flipped straight up from the bed and sat cross-legged.
Her beautiful brows were tightly furrowed. She stroked her stomach with one hand and propped her chin with the other, her eyes fixed on the three cards in front of her, as if facing the most difficult puzzle in the world.
“Which one will Ye Rou choose? First, rule out ‘Toy’; she doesn’t seem like someone who likes to play. That leaves two. ‘Sculpture’ fits her artistic temperament more. Hmm, yes, that’s right. It’s decided! To avoid Ye Rou, I’ll choose ‘Toy’.”
Gu Chixue’s furrowed brows instantly relaxed. She quickly picked up the middle card, then happily bounced off the bed and rushed straight to the control room.
After submitting the task item, Gu Chixue had just returned to her room when her phone vibrated. A message had arrived.
She opened it: [Sister Gu, thank you for comforting me today. I will definitely work hard to become a better person in the future. Meeting you on this show is the happiest thing for me this year. I also hope your career goes smoothly, and I believe you can definitely walk the flower road and reach the peak of the entertainment industry!]
“Heh, you can tell this is from Lin Fengran. This production team, seriously, what’s the point of anonymity? It’s like taking off your pants to fart, completely unnecessary.” Gu Chixue was full of pride, constantly praising herself: [It’s you, Gu Chixue, truly brilliantly clever.]
Just as she put down her phone, another vibration came. Gu Chixue looked puzzled: “Who else would send me a message?”
[Your behavior is very different from the rumors. I hope to see a more authentic you in the future. [Image] I heard you like omurice at the dining table. I can make it for you if there’s a chance!]
Gu Chixue looked at her phone, her face full of disbelief. She even went under the light to read it word by word. Did Ye Rou really send this?!
“Ah, I’ve been so restrained today, why would Ye Rou still send me a message?!” Gu Chixue frantically rubbed her hair with both hands, looking distraught.
“There’s only one reason: it’s because I’m too beautiful!” Gu Chixue flopped around on her bed, thought long and hard, and finally came to this conclusion.
I absolutely, absolutely must not have any more contact with her tomorrow, Gu Chixue vowed to herself a million times while lying in bed.
After a while, she buried her face deep in the covers again, occasionally letting out goofy chuckles, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
In another room, it was completely dark, with only the phone on the coffee table emitting a faint light. However, the owner of the phone had long since fallen asleep.
As the production team released the message delivery status and content to the live stream, the enthusiasm of netizens in front of their screens soared, and discussion volume greatly increased.
[Everyone else didn’t surprise me, but Gu Chixue actually voted for Lin Fengran?! And Ye Rou sent a message to Gu Chixue! This result shocked me for a hundred years!]
[Ahhhhh, goddess, please don’t be attracted by Gu Chixue’s face! She’s a scummy Alpha!!!]
[Where are the people who just said Gu Chixue would definitely vote for Ye Rou? Are you eating your words? Do you think everyone wants your goddess?]
[Is this still Gu Chixue? She didn’t even try to hook up with the more helpful Film Empress? Has she changed her taste and plans to develop a relationship with a fan?]
[The person upstairs needs to clean up their mouth. Didn’t you see the message Gu Chixue sent to Lin Fengran? It’s clearly an older sister encouraging a younger brother, okay?!]
As the first day of the show ended, a hashtag quickly climbed the trending topics: #YeRou’sHeartFlutteringMessageToGuChixue#.
Fans from both sides clashed from the live stream to Weibo. The popularity continuously rose, and it quickly reached number one. The operations teams of both sides and the production team couldn’t stop smiling. Only Ye Rou’s agent, her eyes full of worry, whispered, “What exactly are you doing?”
The next morning, the heavens were exceptionally kind. Outside, the sun was bright, a gentle breeze was blowing, and the ambient temperature was 24 degrees Celsius, making it a perfect day for a date.
Gu Chixue was awakened by the morning light. She put on some light makeup and walked energetically towards the control room.
“What?! Only Ye Rou and I? And we’re going to an amusement park?!” Gu Chixue’s loud wail officially kicked off the beautiful second day of the dating show.
