After Transmigrating as an Alpha, I Paired with the Arrogant Movie Queen and Became a Viral Sensation [GL] - Chapter 16

—I have a question for you!

—Does your heart start pounding when you see someone you like?

Fang Ruoya replied immediately.

—??

—Why are you asking that? When I was dating my first love, my heart definitely raced, and my face kept blushing, and it felt really comfortable. You know that feeling, when you see someone you like, your eyes just light up, hehehe. But after we broke up, I realized how rare that feeling is.

—And I rarely feel it now.

—??!!!!!!

—Wait, you don’t mean you like someone now, do you?

—Hahahahahaha, I can’t believe you actually like someone!!

—You’re getting into a relationship before me. The sun must be rising from the west!

Ji Mian: “…”

Neither Ji Mian nor the original host had ever dated. They didn’t know what falling in love felt like, nor did they have anyone they liked.

She never thought that seeing someone she liked would lead to a racing heart and a blushing face.

Could she really have feelings for Xu Zhixia??

—Quick, answer my question??

—You really like someone!

—Who is it? Who is it? Do I know them?

—It can’t be Xu Zhixia, can it?

—Oh my god, you two…

Ji Mian turned off her phone, unwilling to reply.

But her intuition told her that regardless of whether Fang Ruoya was right, she certainly felt a profound desire to see Xu Zhixia, worried about her, and cared for her. Even when Xu Zhixia said she hadn’t eaten dinner, Ji Mian went to ask about local specialties.

Oh my god!

Ji Mian lay on the bed. This was truly unbelievable.

But even if Ji Mian had feelings for her, why was it so strange?

Is it just because my dream hasn’t been fulfilled, and I’m afraid of being over-scrutinized by the public due to the CP bundling?

Just then, Fang Ruoya called.

“Why aren’t you replying to me?”

Ji Mian: “…” I don’t even have time to think right now. Where would I find time to reply to you?

“Do you like Xu Zhixia?”

Anyone could be guessed, but why was Fang Ruoya so certain it was Xu Zhixia?

Ji Mian complained inwardly.

“If you don’t answer, I’ll take that as a confirmation. Haven’t you noticed? Xu Zhixia is interested in you! When you invited us to dinner, she called you ‘Mian Mian’—such an affectionate term! Didn’t that make your heart flutter? Didn’t that satisfy you? Hahahahaha!”

Ji Mian sighed, “How are you so sure she likes me?”

Fang Ruoya clicked her tongue twice: “Although you told me you never date, you’d be stupid not to notice such obvious behavior. I mean, would someone as arrogant and aloof as Xu Zhixia be willing to share a fork with you and let you feed her?”

“I know.”

“What?! One moment you’re pretending not to understand, the next you’re guessing her intentions. Are you fishing? Alright, Ji Mian, if you can catch a Movie Queen, I’ll give you props!!”

“No, it’s just…” She didn’t know what to say.

But there was one thing she could admit: “I seem to have feelings for her.”

Fang Ruoya: “You…”

Ding—Ji Mian hung up. When she said that sentence, her entire head was burning hot. No, her face, her body, every organ felt intensely hot!

Fang Ruoya occupied five slots in her missed calls list, but Ji Mian didn’t pick up because she knew that as soon as she did, a barrage of questions would be waiting for her. Such a troublesome woman!

Love or not love, she wasn’t clear about it herself yet, so how could she tell anyone else?

Despite everything, she was genuinely very nervous now. Liking someone for the first time, especially someone who used to be her close CP partner, was something anyone would find hard to accept.

It’s so annoying, yet whenever she thought of Xu Zhixia’s face and voice, Ji Mian suddenly felt it wasn’t annoying at all. Instead, she felt very happy.

The next day, Xu Zhixia was still lying in bed. If the assistant hadn’t frantically woken her up, Xu Zhixia might not have managed to wake up until the afternoon.

When she arrived on set, Director Gu asked how she was feeling.

Xu Zhixia shook her head, “I slept very well.”

Director Gu chuckled: “Zhixia, you’re so beautiful, but don’t become obsessed with one particular person. It’s not good to ruin your health.”

Xu Zhixia was startled. Did Director Gu know something? I haven’t told anyone.

She glanced over at Ji Mian, who was sitting properly. Ji Mian noticed her gaze and quickly covered herself with the script.

Xu Zhixia gritted her teeth. That woman!!

Ji Mian sighed in relief when she didn’t see Xu Zhixia’s figure, and just set down her script. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a bottle of chilled mineral water. Looking up, she saw Xu Zhixia, face taut, but speaking in a slightly flirtatious tone: “Can you help me twist the cap off? I can’t open it.”

Ji Mian swallowed. She couldn’t help but blush whenever she saw her.

Xu Zhixia’s makeup looked great, very suitable for her, especially the hint of red lipstick.

“Oh, oh…” Ji Mian blankly helped her twist the cap.

Xu Zhixia maintained a cold expression. Once the cap was off, she deliberately let her hand brush against Ji Mian’s and whispered close to her ear, “Thank you!”

Such… seductive words.

Ji Mian’s face instantly went up another shade of red.

In the bright sunlight, it was hard not to notice.

Xu Zhixia smiled coyly and said softly, “Mian Mian, I just asked you for a small favor. Why are you blushing?”

It’s because I saw you… Ji Mian was speechless.

“Are you blushing every time you see me?” Xu Zhixia leaned in, facing her directly, her expression conveying three parts innocence and five parts purity.

“No…”

“Really? I think I can smell the fresh orange pheromones again.” Xu Zhixia smiled faintly.

“Wait a moment!” Ji Mian abruptly stood up. “I need to use the restroom!”

Watching Ji Mian’s stumbling figure, Xu Zhixia inwardly muttered: It seems she is still interested in me. But why won’t she just admit it? Is she still holding a grudge?

Most of the scenes for the day were about the two protagonists meeting.

But Ji Mian was noticeably out of state. Compared to the incredibly well-composed Xu Zhixia, the difference was visible to the naked eye.

Director Gu sighed: “Ji Mian, concentrate. Is the weather too hot? Your face looks strangely red.”

“Maybe so!” Ji Mian bit her lip and took a sip of iced water.

She consciously avoided looking at Xu Zhixia.

After drinking half the bottle of water, she suddenly heard someone fall behind her, accompanied by a scream. Ji Mian recognized Xu Zhixia’s voice and quickly spun around to see Xu Zhixia lying on the ground, her eyebrows tightly furrowed.

The assistant let out a cry and quickly rushed to help, but suddenly, a figure appeared, moving too fast for the camera to capture. With a whoosh of wind, Ji Mian quickly crouched beside Xu Zhixia, asking anxiously, “Are you okay?”

Xu Zhixia showed a beautiful smile. She immediately hugged Ji Mian’s neck and said flirtatiously, “I knew you would come!”

Author’s Note:

Ji Mian, go confess already!!!!!!!!

Xu Zhixia: It’s the first day Mian Mian hasn’t sought me out. Missing her, missing her, still missing her.
