After Transmigrating into a Scum Alpha, I Was Targeted by the Flirty Boss Omega - Chapter 23
“Th-thank you…”
Before Wen Min could even process what was happening, Shen Fu pulled the hat out of the bag and placed it on Wen Min’s head as well.
She pressed down on the brim, which looked like she was stroking Wen Min’s head—and that was exactly how Wen Min felt.
Neither could see the other’s eyes, but Shen Fu’s voice rang out near Wen Min’s ear. She said, “Is a simple thank you all I get?”
Wen Min didn’t understand her intention. She tried her best to look up, peering at her through the gap beneath the brim, and asked in confusion, “Then… what would you like me to do?”
The other woman’s voice possessed a magic that could manipulate one’s emotions, making Wen Min feel like a puppet to her will.
“Help me put mine on too.”
“Okay…” Wen Min did as she was told, though her hands couldn’t stop trembling.
She quickly put the hat and mask on Shen Fu. She was so nervous she didn’t dare look into the woman’s eyes, saying stiffly, “Done.”
Just as they were about to leave, the store clerk—who had just been force-fed a huge serving of “dog food” (displays of affection)—unexpectedly called out to them. Her tone was sincere and carried a hint of excitement:
“I wish you two a century of happiness together!”
“Wait, it’s not—”
Wen Min wanted to explain, but Shen Fu put an arm around her shoulder and steered her out of the shop. As if confirming the clerk’s suspicion, she dropped a simple: “Thank you.”
To Shen Fu, she was doing all of this purely to tease Wen Min; what others thought didn’t matter. If other people’s misunderstandings could cause Wen Min to have more interesting reactions, she was more than happy for them to happen.
This is quite fun, she thought.
Wen Min instinctively pulled her hat lower, not wanting anyone to see the shyness in her eyes, and certainly not wanting Shen Fu to see her blushing face again.
However, her exposed ears were constantly betraying her inner turmoil.
The moment they stepped out of the store, Shen Fu let go of Wen Min’s shoulder. She glanced at the pair of beet-red ears beside her, and the beautiful eyes beneath her hat’s brim filled with a bit more amusement.
By the time they emerged from the shop, they were fully disguised with masks and hats, making it impossible for anyone to see their true faces.
At that moment, the majority of the hot searches were related to Wen Min. The video of Shen Fu buckling her seatbelt had already surged to the number two spot on Weibo, with a very eye-catching headline:
#Wen Min and Mysterious Woman Embracing in Car#
Under this hashtag were many videos taken by different reporters. The action itself was already prone to misunderstanding, and perhaps for the sake of getting more clicks, the reporters had intentionally filmed from angles that made it look like they were truly embracing.
Furthermore, the videos were very short, having been edited to cut out the moment Shen Fu pulled away after buckling the belt.
The comment section was a dizzying mix of opinions.
[Has Sister really fallen in love?! Waaaah, I can’t believe it.]
[Who is this woman? This generation of netizens is failing; it’s been this long and there’s still no info on her.]
[I’d rather it be a publicity stunt, you know? Anyone feel me?]
[Are they really embracing? I feel like it doesn’t look like it. Everyone don’t panic, wait for the official announcement.]
[It’s like New Year’s today, so lively. Eating melon.JPG]
On the other side, Yu Shu Tao was nearly exploding with rage as she saw new entries constantly surfacing. It was one thing to have a high-profile dinner with a mysterious woman, but to follow it up with an embrace in the car?!
Did she think the company’s PR department had nothing to do?!
But when she finally saw the woman’s face clearly, her fit of rage suddenly had nowhere to go.
That person was actually Shen Fu, the major investor of the show?!

Shen Fu: Surprised? Unexpected?
It’s been hard on you darlings to endure these “lean days” (short chapters) with me. Just hold on a few more days, it’ll be over soon. Head pats~
