After Transmigrating as an Alpha, I Paired with the Arrogant Movie Queen and Became a Viral Sensation [GL] - Chapter 11

The area in front of them wasn’t a door, but a display featuring a mannequin dressed in red, with long black hair covering its face. Although seeing it again might not cause her to run away screaming, the sudden sight still made Ji Mian’s heart skip a beat.

What was worse was that she had been scared enough to run into Xu Zhixia’s arms. She had promised to protect her, but she was the one who got scared first! How embarrassing, how utterly embarrassing!

Due to Ji Mian’s high state of anxiety, her pheromones seemed to be broadcasting without restraint. Xu Zhixia lowered her head, sniffing deeply, and smiled.

“Mian Mian’s pheromones smell so good.”

Ji Mian: “…” She previously framed me for seduction, and now she’s complimenting me like this. Although Ji Mian did think the scent was quite pleasant.

“Let go of me,” Ji Mian gently struggled.

Xu Zhixia refused. Woman, just give yourself to me! Her chin rested on Ji Mian’s shoulder. If Ji Mian forced herself away, Xu Zhixia might hit the floor, so Ji Mian did not struggle violently.

Xu Zhixia chuckled, “Let me smell you a little longer.”

An Alpha’s pheromones might be intoxicating to an Omega. Ji Mian found the answer she was looking for in her heart.

Ji Mian could actually smell a strong mint scent in Xu Zhixia’s embrace, which made her feel oddly calm. Unconsciously, she gave up struggling.

Xu Zhixia smiled, “You like my pheromones too? If you want to smell them, then go ahead and get your fill.”

Ji Mian fully snapped back to reality.

“There are cameras here.”

“Ah?” Xu Zhixia instinctively recoiled, a reaction born from avoiding cameras and paparazzi. This allowed Ji Mian to seize the opportunity and step back a few paces.

Xu Zhixia’s heart was itching. Seeing Ji Mian intentionally avoiding her, her competitive spirit began to spread. She raised an eyebrow: “What did you see?”

Ji Mian shrugged: “Go look for yourself.”

So Xu Zhixia took Ji Mian’s hand and said plaintively and flirtatiously, “I don’t dare look. You have to go with me.”

Ji Mian: “…” Then stop touching my hand for no reason!!

Just then, a sound came from inside the room…

“For all the pain of clinging to love, for all the wounds of clinging to hate… is it going to be like this!” (A line from a famous Chinese song, Tian Xia Wu Shuang.)

Ji Mian: “…”

The sound paused, then switched back to scary background music. The manager must have played the wrong song. But the music added an immeasurable atmosphere of terror to the silent environment.

Xu Zhixia couldn’t help but grip Ji Mian’s hand tighter.

Opening the curtain, Xu Zhixia’s curious expression instantly flattened. She said “Oh,” “So it’s fake.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the red-dressed mannequin suddenly moved.

Xu Zhixia’s conditioned reflex kicked in. With a jump, she leaped into Ji Mian’s arms. Ji Mian was startled too, and she quickly held Xu Zhixia with one arm around her back and the other around her ankles, immediately running back the way they came.

They ran until they collided head-on with the other four people.

Fang Ruoya saw their actions and looked suspicious. She asked, “What did you two see?”

Xu Zhixia pretended to be terrified: “You’ll know if you go over there and see.”

The male Omega hesitated: “Oh dear, I’m so scared.”

The male Alpha quickly hugged him: “Then we won’t go.”

The male Omega was momentarily speechless: “The other two young ladies probably want to go too. There is strength in numbers, so let’s go take a look.”

Fang Ruoya saw him feigning weakness and waved her hand with a silent laugh, “It’s fine, we two can go by ourselves.”

The male Omega: “…”

The four of them were curious and went to look, leaving the two shaken people (really just one) behind.

Xu Zhixia buried her head deep into Ji Mian’s chest, squeezing her voice and saying, “Mian Mian, I’m so scared.”

Once Ji Mian’s emotions stabilized, she realized she was still holding Xu Zhixia in a princess carry and promptly put her down.

Xu Zhixia, however, leaned in, whispering close to her ear, and chuckled, “Am I very light?” She curled her lips into a smile, showing no trace of the panic she had displayed earlier.

“She’s okay,” Ji Mian thought inwardly. She’s acting again.

Xu Zhixia’s delicate, pale finger tapped Ji Mian’s chin. Ji Mian felt ticklish and turned her face away slightly.

Xu Zhixia didn’t back off. Instead, her actions became more unrestrained. Ji Mian! You big straight Alpha! This is the first time I’ve pursued someone, can’t you give me a better reaction? You’re going to make me faint from frustration!

Her fair, ivory-like wrist moved subtly toward Ji Mian’s neck, but Ji Mian caught it with her hand. The touch felt surprisingly good; Ji Mian even had the presence of mind to notice the sensation.

Xu Zhixia felt the grip tighten slightly and raised an eyebrow: “What’s wrong? Do you want to hold my hand? Then keep touching it. I don’t mind.” Since you think I have a good figure, don’t avoid me. Just obediently fall into my trap.

Ji Mian bit her lip and released her hand.

Xu Zhixia glanced at her tightly grasped wrist and frowned slightly, “My hand is turning red because of you. Why aren’t you a little more tender? I was almost in tears from the pain you caused me.”

The lighting in their area wasn’t dim, with two lamps shining overhead, making it easy for Ji Mian to see her expression clearly.

She looked on the verge of tears from grievance, her eyes pitiful, her gaze lowered and vulnerable, and her voice full of flirting. Seriously, what an enchantress! Ji Mian didn’t dare look at her.

Xu Zhixia moved closer: “You hurt me. Shouldn’t you take responsibility for me?”

Her warm breath flowed over Ji Mian’s ear. Xu Zhixia saw that Ji Mian’s soft earlobe had turned a beautiful shade of pink.

Ji Mian shifted slightly, “I didn’t use any force.”

“No force? Then why is it red?” Xu Zhixia held out her wrist.

It’s because you keep harassing me! Oh, wait, body contact! Don’t you know that Alpha and Omega shouldn’t touch intimately?! Ji Mian gritted her teeth.

“Ah—” Fang Ruoya’s scream came from inside, followed by the three others running out together.

Xu Zhixia couldn’t help but laugh out loud: “What a bunch of cowards.”

Ji Mian stole a glance at her. Seeing her bright smile, Ji Mian’s mood suddenly lifted, and the scary atmosphere seemed to become sweet.

After they left the escape room, it was still early.

Fang Ruoya suggested going to a KTV to sing. Xu Zhixia initially wanted to go home, but she heard the extreme excitement in Ji Mian’s voice.

“Didn’t you say you hate singing the most?” Xu Zhixia crossed her arms.

Ji Mian was a singer and had been to KTV countless times with friends, earning the title of “KTV Little Queen.”

The original host was only good at dancing, and her singing ability was, at best, pitch-correct. Her vocal skills in the group wouldn’t even rank in the top five.

This time, Ji Mian’s true talent could finally be displayed.

“I’m going to order Tian Xia Wu Shuang first,” Ji Mian said, selecting a song.

When she hit the high notes, Fang Ruoya almost spat out her drink. She helplessly touched Lan Ziqing’s arm and exclaimed, “Is that… Ji Mian? That vocal ability is good enough for The Voice of A-Country and I Am a Singer.”

Lan Ziqing was also stunned. She was not only the lead vocalist of the group, but also considered the best singer during the talent show. But hearing Ji Mian’s voice, she felt she had been surpassed.

Xu Zhixia didn’t show surprise like them. Instead, she watched Ji Mian hitting the high notes with deep appreciation, even though her ears hurt slightly.

How much ability has she been hiding? Xu Zhixia frowned at the thought.

After Ji Mian finished singing, she bowed to them. This was her habit after performing a song. After every concert, she would bow to her fans as a sign of respect to her listeners.

Xu Zhixia clapped happily and smiled, “Mian Mian, you’re so amazing.”

Although she had been complimented many times, Ji Mian found this time particularly gratifying. She felt like she was being praised by her mother, and her cheeks couldn’t help but flush red.

Just then, the door opened.

A middle-aged male Alpha walked in smiling. Ji Mian was startled; he looked very familiar.

Fang Ruoya’s eyes widened when she saw the man: “Eh, isn’t that Senior He Yue?”

“Hello, Senior,” everyone stood up and bowed to He Yue.

He Yue was the CEO of the largest domestic music company, “AEX.” He had written songs for many popular singers, and his songs often became huge hits. Consequently, He Yue held a high status in the music industry.

He Yue looked at Ji Mian: “Was that you singing just now?”

Ji Mian was astonished. The room was small and had good soundproofing, but Ji Mian’s high notes were so skillful that He Yue could hear them clearly just by walking past.

He wondered who this master singer was. When he opened the door, he didn’t expect to see Ji Mian, the retired girl group member who had been frequently trending recently. Seeing Xu Zhixia beside her, he thought, These young sweethearts are really interesting.

Ji Mian nodded, “Yes, it was.”

“Very good,” He Yue dropped the comment and left.

Fang Ruoya happily hugged Ji Mian’s shoulder, “Oh my god, that senior is a big boss in the music industry! He said you sang well. He might extend an olive branch to you, Mian Mian!”

Ji Mian was surprised, but mostly happy. She met Xu Zhixia’s beautiful eyes. The latter gave her a look of satisfaction, like a proud fan whose idol has just been complimented.

Ji Mian felt a hidden doubt: What exactly are Xu Zhixia’s feelings for the original host?
