Milk Orange Omega Becomes Popular Through a Dating Show [Entertainment Circle] - Chapter 5
Zhong Lin’s eyes were bewildered, and her intense curiosity led her to involuntarily murmur, “But why would he want to ‘have your babies?’ You’re clearly not a monkey…”
Pei Yi turned her face away, her crimson lips trembling slightly. She was nearly incandescent with rage, her voice shaking slightly at the end: “Shut up!”
The accompanying cameraman standing at the metal railing let out a choked sound, barely managing to suppress his laughter. The camera shook slightly before he stabilized the highly raised lens and finished filming Pei Yi and Zhong Lin just before departure.
The viewers watching the live stream also heard the little male O wanting to “have Pei Yi’s babies.” That “horrible” statement caused an uproar—
【Hahahahahaha, I’m dying of laughter!! Look how mad Yi Yi is!】
【Weld the car doors shut, no one’s leaving today】
【I’ll have them! I’ll have them! Wife, come home with me, our babies are ready!!】
【She must be doing it on purpose, right? Who doesn’t know what that means…】
【Speechless and nauseated. Isn’t this harassment??? Zhong Lin get out!】
【I think Zhong Lin genuinely doesn’t know what it means. Her eyes are so blank; she shouldn’t be faking it.】
【Really? I don’t believe it. E-Fans, keep spamming ‘Zhong Lin get out’ on the public screen!】
…
The moment the Speed Racer launched, the wheels violently scraped against the metal track slots. The engine roared, making a piercing and terrifying noise.
The speed was incredibly fast, and sharp screams filled the air. Even the little male O in the back was shouting “ah,” “ah” loudly, like a rooster crowing, completely losing his shy and reserved Omega image behind his goddess.
For ordinary humans, it was certainly thrilling. Blood rushed through their dilated veins, and the insane spike in adrenaline brought about extreme exhilaration.
For the Baize cub Zhong Lin, she seemed to be infected by those around her and unconsciously started to “ah-ah” and cry out.
It was the first time Zhong Lin was so undignified. Her cheeks felt a bit hot, and she felt slightly embarrassed. She turned her face slightly to look at the person next to her.
The car was speeding along, the fierce wind hitting her face—
Pei Yi’s posture was rigid. Her dark hair was wildly ruffled by the wind, strands whipping across her fair neck. Her eyes, with their upturned corners, held a captivating charm mixed with heroism, but they were now slightly dilated and watery.
She was clearly in a state of high tension.
Pei Yi’s face was as pale as paper. Her lips were tightly pressed, and her long fingers were clenched tightly on the armrest, her protruding knuckles turning white.
Zhong Lin quietly moved her arm outward, covering Pei Yi’s fiercely gripping fingers with her own small hand in a soothing manner.
A warm touch came from the back of Pei Yi’s hand.
The girl’s hand was very soft. Her warmth slowly transferred from the back of the hand, carrying a sense of comfort.
Pei Yi turned her head and saw the small, pale hand resting on her hand. Her heart felt lightly scratched, and even the inner wrist of the hand that was touched felt a slight tingle—
Due to a delusion, Pei Yi was momentarily lost in thought.
A few minutes later, the car suddenly decelerated, the wheels grinding against the tracks with another piercing roar. The “Speed Racer” returned to the station.
The tourists were chattering:
“My brains were nearly shaken off!”
“Tell me about it. My brain matter was almost shaken out…”
“Whoa, holy cow. Wow! What a ride! What a ride! That last curve! It nearly stunned me!”
…
For the Baize cub Zhong Lin, the sensation wasn’t so intense… In her original Baize form, she could fly, too.
That hand, whose fingertips had grown slightly cool, slowly slipped out from Zhong Lin’s palm.
“Let’s go.” Pei Yi closed her eyes and called out flatly.
Pei Yi stood up first, and Zhong Lin obediently followed behind her.
Pei Yi was as commanding as usual, her back very straight. The appropriately tailored little black dress accentuated her long legs and graceful figure.
However, if one looked closely, her calves seemed to be trembling slightly, and her steps were a little unsteady.
Pei Yi forcefully stabilized herself back on the platform. Her condition was clearly not good. Her body swayed slightly on the steps, seemingly about to fall…
A hand caught her arm. The fingers were soft and warm.
Pei Yi’s heart clenched.
Zhong Lin’s voice came from behind, “Be careful.”
“Should I help you?”
“Let go,” Pei Yi reached out and pried open the hand holding her. “I can walk myself.”
The accompanying cameraman and staff drew closer. Pei Yi’s pale profile enlarged in the lens.
A staff member quietly prompted: “Did you have fun?”
Pei Yi suddenly covered her mouth with one hand. Her stomach churned, and her throat felt sour. She felt like she was going to vomit.
The staff member was confused: ?? Do I look that disgusting?
“Are you feeling unwell?” The accompanying cameraman was more perceptive.
Pei Yi waved her hand, turned around, and supported herself on the railing, bending her long neck.
She lowered her head and gagged up some sour liquid.
It was the first time Pei Yi had been so disheveled.
And it was in front of the camera.
Pei Yi pulled out a tissue, her heart chilling, and slowly wiped the mess from the corner of her lips.
Zhong Lin, standing beside her, turned around, stretched out her arm, and spread her fingers, attempting to cover the camera held by the accompanying cameraman. “Hey, don’t record this part for the live stream!”
She looked a little silly, like a puppy guarding its food.
The crimson corners of her lips unconsciously curved up again. Pei Yi let out a soft laugh, amused by the person’s childishness, but her heart was suddenly warmed by a surge of heat.
The warmth only lasted for an instant before vanishing.
This person was Zhong Lin, the Omega guest she had disliked the most during the first two days of the show!
But what exactly happened in that one moment?
Why did she suddenly feel that Zhong Lin wasn’t so annoying anymore?
If Zhong Lin could maintain this attitude, Pei Yi might temper her dislike—her aversion to this “magical girl” Zhong Lin.
Despite Zhong Lin covering most of the lens with her body, the audience still saw the scene of Pei Yi’s physical discomfort—
【Suddenly seeing an enlarged close-up of the cub’s beautiful face, [shy]】
【Aaaah, my Yi is so miserable】
【Heartbroken +1】
【It’s all that Zhong Lin’s fault. She’s seriously ill, insisting on dragging our Pei Yi to ride that!】
【To be honest, the person above is ugly when they curse! Didn’t you see Zhong Lin said she wanted to give up earlier?】
【I think I saw Zhong Lin blocking the camera for Yi Yi? Why does that feel kind of sweet???】
【Okay, for this one second, I can pause blacklisting Zhong Lin [shrug]】
…
The group walked to a nearby pavilion to rest.
Some of the pavilions in Happy Valley were very creative, shaped like mushroom caps, painted with red and white polka dots, looking super cute
Zhong Lin stared at the mushroom cap from a distance and, after entering the pavilion, began to stare at the white, stalk-like columns.
Pei Yi sat next to a round “mushroom table,” resting her face on one hand, her eyelashes lowered. A slight gloom hung over her brow.
In just a momentary lapse of concentration, the person beside her was gone.
That former nuisance, hanger-on, and fame-leech, Zhong Lin, had actually abandoned her and run off to play alone?!
When Pei Yi realized this fact, her long eyelashes fluttered, and the corners of her lips slowly pressed downwards. She didn’t even know what she was disappointed about.
Zhong Lin’s “pathological admiration” had disappeared. She should be happy, right? She finally got rid of a nuisance!
She must have been dizzy from the “Speed Racer”…
Thinking this, Pei Yi’s mouth curved up slightly. However, the curve, only halfway formed, quickly pressed down again.
Zhong Lin came running back, panting, “huff huff,” and had actually returned?!
“Why are you back?” Pei Yi cleared her throat, feeling a little surprised.
“Have some water” Zhong Lin placed something in front of her. It was a disposable paper cup containing hot water.
Zhong Lin had observed the people who got off the Speed Racer—besides Pei Yi, many, many others, including small, delicate male Omegas, huge, muscular male Alphas, female Alphas, and female Betas, they all looked sick.
Humans were very fragile.
Even the strongest Alpha had to be defeated by the wheels of the Speed Racer.
Zhong Lin had actually left to find a Happy Valley staff member to get a cup of hot water for Pei Yi.
The bullet comments were touched by Zhong Lin’s thoughtful kindness—
【Drink more hot water, it cures all ailments】
【Oh my god, the cub is so warm!】
【Heh, I thought she had run off with self-awareness.】
【I… I don’t want to blacklist Zhong Lin anymore, I even kind of want to ship them??!】
【Speechless. You’re bought off by a cup of hot water?! Yi Yi would never fall for someone like that! There are plenty of people who cling to our Yi Yi; Zhong Lin can wait in line!】
…
“Pei Yi,” Zhong Lin called her, her voice soft and sweet, like one child comforting another,
“You need to rest.”
“Then I’ll sit for a while.” Pei Yi’s heart warmed, and she felt a flicker of emotion again, nodding in agreement.
Zhong Lin: “Okay.”
“Then… can I go play by myself?” Zhong Lin pinched her fingers. After a moment of hesitation, she voiced her inner desire.
A staff member signaled “OK” to Zhong Lin.
Zhong Lin’s heart leaped with joy. No more fear, no more worrying about being disliked or despised by the female Alpha lead. She could finally play happily by herself!!
Pei Yi: “I think you can…”
Pei Yi hadn’t finished her sentence.
Zhong Lin was already running away in quick, small steps, like a frisky little pony.
So happy~_(:з)∠)_
Watching Zhong Lin’s figure disappear into the distance, the tiny spark of emotion in her heart was immediately extinguished with a “slap.” Pei Yi quickly realized—Zhong Lin’s interest and attention were completely off her.
It turned out that all the amusement facilities, sponsored ads, sweet treats, and broadcast tasks… were all more compelling than she was in Zhong Lin’s eyes.
The pathological admiration Zhong Lin once held for her was, after all, misplaced.
It turned out that love doesn’t just disappear; it also shifts.
It was like a blue sky with white clouds on a clear day, suddenly welcoming a storm that swept away all affection…
Pei Yi should have been happy, but the curve of her lips pressed downwards again.
She wasn’t angry or disappointed.
She was absolutely thrilled (╬ ̄皿 ̄)
When Zhong Lin finally returned to find her, it was nearly dark.
Pei Yi had been abandoned by Zhong Lin, left to dry in the mushroom pavilion for most of the day. As the youngest Movie Queen and the second daughter of the Fanghong Group, how could she wander around Happy Valley alone?!
A date for two, loneliness for one.
Malicious. How utterly malicious!
To this, Pei Yi declared: Seriously, she was totally thrilled (▼皿▼#)!
Her signature professional smile gradually disappeared from the camera. Pei Yi’s face slowly lost all expression. Her seductive, flirtatious eyes became vacant, her gaze dull and hollow.
Pei Yi slowly stood up from the small stool. The mushroom stool, mushroom table, and mushroom pavilion accompanied her for most of her “Date Time.” She had been looking up at the sky here, watching from sunrise until nearly sunset.
She felt like she was turning into a mushroom herself.
“Pei Yi,” Zhong Lin’s voice suddenly rang in her ear, “I…”
Just then, a familiar figure approached from a distance. In a white off-the-shoulder shirt and denim shorts, Zhong Lin waved to Pei Yi from far away. The movement pulled at the collar of her shirt, revealing the delicate lines of her exquisite collarbone. The contours of her neck muscles flexed slightly with her skin.
The last rays of the setting sun outlined the girl’s silhouette.
Pei Yi: “…” Heh, so you remembered to come back?
