A Milky Orange-Flavored Omega Becomes Famous Through a Dating Show [Entertainment Circle] - Chapter 8

Zhong Lin opened the door.

Standing at the doorway was a female Omega. She was a tiny bit shorter than Zhong Lin, with short curly hair and lively, expressive brows and eyes.

“Come over for a meeting,” the girl said with a polite smile.

Zhong Lin nodded. She carefully recalled the characters from the plot. There were three Omega guests in total. One male Omega was “Zhong Lin’s” good friend, Zhou Xiaoduo. This one was the other female Omega guest, Liang Shan.

Following Liang Shan to the living room, Zhong Lin saw that several guests were already seated around the marble coffee table.

Sitting on the innermost side of the long sofa was a girl with a high ponytail. It was Female Alpha No. 2, Chu Yunze, whom Zhong Lin had accidentally chosen.

The moment Chu Yunze saw Zhong Lin, the cup in her hand became unsteady and shook twice, spilling water onto the back of her hand.

Pei Yi sat on the single-seat sofa at the far left, legs crossed, her hand resting on the bend of her knee. She did not say a word.

Only Male Alpha Guest No. 3, Zhu Ying, seemed to have nothing on his mind. He was the first to stand and make room for Zhong Lin. “All right, everyone’s here.”

“Let’s draw lots to decide the cooking pairs.”

The result of the draw appeared: Pei Yi and Zhong Lin, Chu Yunze and Zhou Xiaoduo, Zhu Ying and Liang Shan.

Everyone’s expressions differed. This cooking arrangement method was simply amazing~ Everyone suspected the production team had deliberately swapped the lots.

Male Omega Guest No. 2, Zhou Xiaoduo, and Female Omega Guest No. 3, Liang Shan—these two Omega guests had both chosen Pei Yi during the “initial heartbeat pick,” abandoning the Alpha guests they had interacted with the most and the sweetest over the past few days.

And now they had to cook together with the Alpha guests they had abandoned.

Good grief. How awkward. ⊙_⊙

The first group to cook was Pei Yi and Zhong Lin.

Zhong Lin hesitated for a while. Her little fingers clenched and unclenched in her palm before she decided to honestly confess the fact that she probably, maybe, possibly… did not know how to cook.

Human food was delicious, and the cooking methods were also very refined. This was truly too difficult for a Bai Ze cub.

Zhong Lin had only eaten meals before. She had never learned to cook, nor had she ever cooked.

In the era where the Bai Ze cub had lived, roasted meat and clean water were already supreme delicacies to Zhong Lin.

Zhou Xiaoduo suddenly spoke. “Zhong Lin’s hand is injured. I’ll take her place.”

“No one has any objections, right?” Zhou Xiaoduo looked around. In truth, his gaze lingered for a long while in Pei Yi’s direction as he quietly observed Pei Yi’s reaction. Then he turned his face and looked at Zhong Lin with smiling eyes.

“Xiao Lin, do you have any objections?”

Zhou Xiaoduo: I bet one mao that this drama queen Zhong Lin won’t let me get what I want. She definitely won’t let go of any chance to be alone with Pei Yi!

Zhong Lin loosened her originally clenched hand. Her brows and eyes curved gently as she smiled softly at him. “Mm, thank you~”

Zhou Xiaoduo: ??! Is this freaking still Zhong Lin?!

Excuse me?!! She just handed over such a good chance to be alone with Pei Yi?!

“Thud, thud—”

The sound of heels striking the floor.

Pei Yi stood up, left the single-seat sofa, and walked toward the kitchen alone.

Everyone dispersed, either returning to their own rooms or chatting and watching TV in the living room.

Zhou Xiaoduo quickly followed behind Pei Yi and also walked toward the kitchen.

Zhong Lin thought for a moment and felt that if she went straight back to her room… it might be very impolite, QAQ~

Tonight, she was originally supposed to cook. It was Zhou Xiaoduo who had helped her avoid it.

The reasons the “Zhong Lin” in the original book had been hated were: she had no brains, was clearly simple and foolish, but loved acting up, was self-centered, refused to work, loved dissing others, and crazily threw herself at the heroine Alpha…

This showed that “being lazy and not working” was one of the original sins.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Lin still followed them into the kitchen.

The kitchen was open-plan, and beside the cabinets there was also a white dining counter.

As Zhong Lin passed by the dining counter, she casually picked up an apron, looking a little at a loss.

Pei Yi turned around from beside the sink. Her white little suit jacket had already been taken off. She was wearing a well-tailored, very design-heavy black sleeveless dress, with a black-and-white striped apron tied over it.

Seeing Zhong Lin come back, Pei Yi’s movement of wiping her hands dry paused for an instant. “Why did you come back?”

Zhong Lin said softly, “I… I want to help.”

At the same time, Zhou Xiaoduo walked in from beside the cabinets on the other side. At this moment, Zhou Xiaoduo had an apron looped over his head and was turning his waist toward Pei Yi, seemingly hinting for Pei Yi… to help him tie the apron.

Pei Yi seemed not to see it and asked faintly, “What do you want to eat?”

Zhou Xiaoduo said, “Help me tie the apron first.”

Zhou Xiaoduo’s gesture was very obvious. The action of tying an apron was somewhat intimate, and it would inevitably involve touching each other’s bodies.

Through this opportunity, he could have “physical contact” with Pei Yi.

Zhong Lin smelled the scent of a task. Work to do! A job had come!!

“Okay~” Zhong Lin quickly rushed over from behind Pei Yi and, in a few swift movements, tied Zhou Xiaoduo’s apron tightly.

Zhou Xiaoduo: “…”

Who asked you to tie it for me!!

“I’ll eat anything. I don’t have any dietary restrictions,” Zhou Xiaoduo said helplessly. He thought Pei Yi’s earlier question of “What do you want to eat?” had been directed at him.

“What do you want to eat?” Pei Yi continued asking. “I’m asking you. Why aren’t you speaking?”

Zhong Lin turned her head: ?

Zhong Lin raised her eyes blankly, just in time to meet a pair of seductive, alluring eyes.

Pei Yi’s nose bridge was very high, and there was a heroic air between her brows and eyes. At this moment, she frowned slightly and shot Zhong Lin a dissatisfied look. “Forget it if you won’t say.”

Her tone was clearly a little impatient, arrogant and coldly beautiful, with the unique intimidation of a rare-level Alpha.

Zhong Lin: What was going on?! She was actually calling her? And not Zhou Xiaoduo?

Zhong Lin suddenly felt a little embarrassed and answered weakly, “I… I’m fine with anything too.”

Zhou Xiaoduo: “…”

Zhong Lin asked, “Is there nothing you need me to help with?”

The apron in her hand was suddenly taken away. Pei Yi casually tossed that apron onto the cabinet beside them. “If you’re injured, then rest and don’t do anything. The wound can’t touch water.”

Her tone was almost commanding.

The bullet comments on the livestream interface—

[Look at how Zhong Lin tied Zhou Xiaoduo’s apron… Good heavens, it’s like she tied up a rice dumpling! Zhou Xiaoduo’s face turned green. I’m dying of laughter~]

[Why do I remember Zhou Xiaoduo saying at the beginning that he had a good impression of Sister Yunze?? Just now he was hinting at Pei Yi too… This little male Omega isn’t simple. Is he the legendary green-tea boy?]

[I saw the spoiler of Zhou Xiaoduo’s initial heartbeat pick! He chose Pei Yi. What a huge green-tea boy…]

[Secretly observing ing.]

[Don’t hate on our Xiaoduo! Xiaoduo is super cute!!]

…

Zhong Lin walked around outside the cabinets. Suddenly thinking of something, she stopped just as she was about to leave and asked hesitantly, “Then… do you know how to cook?”

A rich young lady like Pei Yi was usually the type who “couldn’t carry things on her shoulders, couldn’t lift things in her hands, and never touched housework,” right?

Maybe she was even worse than the Bai Ze cub’s “cooking skills”… Zhong Lin knew how to skewer a little pig and roast it over a bonfire!

Zhou Xiaoduo began cutting vegetables. The one beneath his hand was an onion, which was troublesome to cut. Even with his eyes stinging, he did not forget to answer Zhong Lin. “I do. Did you forget? Didn’t I tell you in high school?”

“I can,” Pei Yi nodded, taking a clean bowl and two eggs from the cabinet.

“Really?” Zhong Lin let out a low “Eh,” the ending of her voice rising slightly. She was clearly very surprised by the fact that Pei Yi could cook.

“If you don’t believe me… go sit over there and wait for me.” Pei Yi raised her hand and pointed at the white dining counter outside the cabinets.

Zhou Xiaoduo, whose smile gradually disappeared ⊙__⊙: “…”

So awkward. Why did these two suddenly bypass him and start talking to each other?!

Zhong Lin pulled out a chair and obediently sat beside the dining counter. From this position, she could just see everything happening inside the open kitchen.

Long, fair fingers held the handle of the manual egg beater, slowly stirring the egg mixture inside the porcelain bowl. Pei Yi’s movements actually looked somewhat skilled?!

Pei Yi explained in a low voice, “I only know a little. Occasionally, I make something for myself to eat.”

“Oh, then you’re pretty amazing.” Zhong Lin sat on the tall chair by the dining counter, her slender little legs swinging lightly back and forth.

“No… you’ve always been amazing. After all, you’re Pei Yi…” Zhong Lin unconsciously sighed softly.

The heroine Alpha was super amazing in the original book. Zhong Lin remembered very clearly. She vaguely remembered that Pei Yi seemed to be the youngest Best Actress, and the scholarly-type Best Actress with two degree certificates!

The Bai Ze cub did not understand what universities and degrees were useful for… She had only just seen some people’s posts while browsing Weibo—

“Graduation thesis data is so hard to handle!”

“Deadly… My advisor wants to hold another group meeting, QAQ, I want to die!”

“Ah, I’m going to die. I failed another course. The roof of the library is so cold. Linear algebra teacher, please look at me.”

…

It sounded like university seemed to be a life-or-death process.

Yet Pei Yi had managed to go through that “life-or-death” process twice, while also being a Best Actress… She really was amazing!

The Bai Ze cub silently gave Pei Yi a thumbs-up in her heart~

That side fell silent. Pei Yi placed ham between slices of toast, then spread it out in a flat pan and evenly poured a layer of golden egg mixture over it.

Her movements were very careful. From this angle, Zhong Lin could see Pei Yi’s side profile. Her black hair fell over her round, fair shoulder. Pei Yi lowered her jaw slightly, her gaze fixed on the inside of the pan, her expression very serious…

But the tips of her ears were slowly turning red.

[Oh my god, it’s starting again… These two directly skipped over Zhou Xiaoduo and started talking to each other across the room, hahahahaha.]

[2333333333, Zhou Xiaoduo is so miserable!]

[Green-tea boy suffering defeat ing.]

[Patting Xiaoduo. Taking our Xiaoduo away. Stop spamming “green-tea boy,” people upstairs. Little Brother Xiaoduo is just too kindhearted. You’re all bad, bad haters!]

…

A few minutes later, a golden piece of French toast was served on a pure white plate and placed on the dining counter in front of Zhong Lin. Long fingers lightly tapped the tabletop.

“Try it?” Pei Yi casually took a knife and fork from the utensil rack and handed them to Zhong Lin.

Her fair arm supported itself against the white dining counter. Her dark brown eyes lowered slightly as she looked at Zhong Lin’s round head, her gaze complicated.

“About this morning… thank you.”

Her voice came from above Zhong Lin’s head, low and quiet, as if she did not want a third person to hear.

Zhong Lin raised her head. Their eyes met, and the other person’s dark brown pupils reflected her outline.

Her eyes blank, Zhong Lin tilted her head slightly. Many little question marks representing confusion seemed to appear above her head.

This morning?

What happened this morning?

Why was Pei Yi thanking her?!
