Snatching the Scumbag Alphas’ White Moonlight in a Dating Variety Show [Transmigration] - Chapter 20

The final task was different from the previous ones. At a dessert shop, the six Alphas had to divide into three teams to compete. The winning team could choose desserts from the shop to give to their preferred Omega, earning the Omega’s favor and extra points.

Of course, everyone wanted to win this task, not only to impress Jiang Li but also to boost their scores and increase their chances of dating her.

Du Qiuxin and Xie Mu weren’t very enthusiastic at first, but Wang Yixi couldn’t resist provoking them a few times, which quickly ignited their competitive spirit.

Xia Jinuo was probably the Alpha who cared least about winning or losing.

For the team draw, Xia Jinuo put her hand into the lottery box, silently wishing it wasn’t “3.” Her hand circled among the balls, and she pulled out a 3.

Xia Jinuo: “…” She was doomed.

Drawing number three meant she was teamed with the infamous, ruthless President Xu Chuyue.

Team one consisted of Wang Yixi and Lu Chen, the famous frenemies. Team two was Du Qiuxin and Xie Mu, who had previously picked cabbages and green onions together. Team three was Xia Jinuo and Xu Chuyue, the one she least wanted to be near.

The three teams would compete in turns. Team one and team two went first. Xia Jinuo noticed Xu Chuyue’s gaze turn to her and immediately focused intently on the two competing teams.

Xu Chuyue wasn’t naturally proactive. When ignored, her expression subtly darkened, and she stopped paying attention to Xia Jinuo.

“You seem very afraid of her. Why?” Jiang Li, standing to Xia Jinuo’s right and slightly behind, asked softly.

Xia Jinuo initially wanted to brush it off, but then she suddenly remembered that the future victim of Xu Chuyue’s bullying was none other than Jiang Li.

She not only should tell Jiang Li the reason, but she should explain it thoroughly.

Xia Jinuo turned around and saw Jiang Li covering her microphone, ensuring her voice wouldn’t be picked up by the live broadcast. Xia Jinuo also pressed down on the mic at her collar and whispered, “Because I’m very good at reading people.”

Jiang Li’s eyes flickered slightly, and she moved a bit closer to Xia Jinuo. Her curly pink hair brushed against Xia Jinuo’s slender shoulder. Through the thin fabric, Xia Jinuo couldn’t ignore it. “Really?”

Xia Jinuo marveled at how amazing the ABO world was, with people having pink hair that wasn’t strange at all but astonishingly beautiful. She nodded slightly: “Of course, it’s true.”

Jiang Li smiled and asked, “Among the guests, who do you think is a good person?”

Xia Jinuo thought to herself that the standard for “good person” was too hard to define. “If you asked me who the bad guys are, I could immediately tell you one, two, three, four, five.”

Xia Jinuo: “…How about I tell you about Xu Chuyue instead?”

Jiang Li, however, wasn’t interested. “No need, thank you.”

Then Jiang Li dropped her smile and returned to her original position.

Xia Jinuo was feeling regretful when she heard Qiqi call her and Xu Chuyue’s names. It turned out that Team One and Team Two had already determined a winner. Team Two, Du Qiuxin and Xie Mu, had better chemistry and won. Now Team One would compete against Team Three.

Xia Jinuo wanted to follow behind Xu Chuyue so she wouldn’t have to look at her face. However, Xu Chuyue deliberately stopped, scanning her up and down with those cold, sharp eyes, and said, “Don’t drag me down in the competition.”

Xu Chuyue didn’t say what the consequences of dragging her down would be, but Xia Jinuo already felt a chill. The sun hadn’t set outside the dessert shop, yet she already felt the coolness of night.

Xia Jinuo didn’t show her psychological discomfort. With her usual smile, she walked and stood next to Xu Chuyue.

Across from them, Wang Yixi and Lu Chen’s verbal battle hadn’t ended yet.

Lu Chen, a lawyer, should have been skilled in debate, but Wang Yixi was unreasonable, his mouth spewing nonsense everywhere. In a direct confrontation, Lu Chen was no match.

With wild punches, Wang Yixi verbally battered Lu Chen, whose face alternated between green and red, unable to utter a single word of rebuttal.

Just as the match between Team Two and Team Three was about to begin, Qiqi quickly stepped in to halt the temporary war between the two Alphas.

Qiqi: “Alright, the first match has ended. Let’s once again congratulate Du Qiuxin and Xie Mu from Team Two. Although Team One narrowly lost the first match, they still have a chance to win. I hope they’ll show good sportsmanship in this next match.”

“Team Three should not be underestimated either. The upcoming competition is related to the entertainment industry. Our Ji Jinuo used to be a celebrity, so she must know a lot. And President Xu has an entertainment company under her name, so she must be skilled in this field too.”

[What is this? Is the production team biased against Lu Chen and Wang Yixi, deliberately setting questions that favor Ji Jinuo and Xu Chuyue?]

[The production team’s favoritism is too obvious. I understand Xu Chuyue has money, but Ji Jinuo? What benefit do you get from favoring her?]

[Fixed! This is outright fixed!]

[Poor Lawyer Lu and Xiao Wang. The two most proud and image-conscious Alphas are about to suffer two consecutive defeats. This blow to them will be immense.]

Wang Yixi’s attention was solely on Lu Chen; he didn’t hear a word Qiqi said. His mouth never stopped, constantly buzzing in Lu Chen’s ear, belittling him and elevating himself. Just as the veins in Lu Chen’s forehead were about to pop, the competition finally began.

Qiqi smiled: “The type of question for this match is guessing song titles and singers. A piece of music will play from the speaker, all well-known songs. The two teams will press the buzzer to answer. One person says the song title, and one person says the singer. Correct answers get two points, wrong answers deduct one point. Everyone, listen carefully: three, two, one… start playing.”

As soon as the soft music began, before Xia Jinuo and Xu Chuyue could react, Wang Yixi on the opposite side had already pressed the buzzer.

Qiqi: “Team one members, please answer.”

Wang Yixi immediately said, “Song title: The Unknown Field!”

His voice was so loud it made Lu Chen’s ears hurt, but this time Lu Chen didn’t seem to mind. A confident smile appeared on his face: “Performed by An Fan.”

Qiqi said: “Correct answer! Congratulations to both of you!”

For the next few questions, Wang Yixi and Lu Chen seemed to be divinely assisted, pressing the buzzer every time and giving the correct answers.

Qiqi: “Team One has accumulated ten points so far. There are five more questions. Team Three still has a chance, don’t give up, come on Ji Jinuo and President Xu~”

Xia Jinuo: “…” She wanted to try hard too, but her ability didn’t allow it.

“Ji Jinuo” herself didn’t like listening to music. Although she was in the entertainment industry, she followed an acting path, unlike those triple-threat celebrities who could do film, variety shows, and music. She only had a bit of acting skill, nothing else. And for genres she wasn’t good at, “Ji Jinuo” chose to completely give up.

Aside from popular songs where she could hum a few lines, she knew nothing about other song titles or singers.

Things “Ji Jinuo” herself didn’t know, Xia Jinuo, who had just transmigrated, was even less likely to answer correctly.

Xu Chuyue played the sixth song. Xu Chuyue’s lips were tightly pursed, her expression solemn. One would think she was handling important company matters, not answering music-related questions in a dessert shop.

Finally, after all ten songs had been played, Xia Jinuo and Xu Chuyue scored zero points. Wang Yixi and Lu Chen answered one question incorrectly, ending with nineteen points.

Compared to the beginning, the two were radiant. Lu Chen’s complexion improved, and Wang Yixi preened in front of the live camera, declaring himself a human music library.

Qiqi interviewed Team Three, who had been completely shut out: “Ji Jinuo, you didn’t recognize a single song?”

Xia Jinuo gave an awkward smile: “I don’t usually listen to music.”

“What about President Xu? It must be because you’re too busy with work to listen to music, right?” Qiqi guessed.

Xu Chuyue: “…Yes.”

She loved listening to music and was a fan, especially of foreign death metal and some strange songs. The songs the production team played were too mainstream, too ordinary; she felt they polluted her ears when she heard them. It would be a miracle if she could answer them.

Next, Team Two and Team Three competed. This time, the production team posed various types of questions. Xia Jinuo still couldn’t answer a single one. Du Qiuxin answered a math problem, Xie Mu answered an animal-related question, and Xu Chuyue answered all the remaining questions herself, all completely correctly.

The competition ended with all teams having one win and one loss. So the production team calculated scores based on the number of correct answers. In the end, Wang Yixi and Lu Chen surprisingly took first place.

Wang Yixi became even more arrogant, completely beside himself, and walked directly up to Jiang Li to loudly confess.

“Jiang Li, I like you! Wait for me to get first place and choose you for a date!”

“Talk when you get first place,” Jiang Li was in a bad mood, her face like frost and snow, radiating coldness.

She had observed Team Three’s competition the entire time. Xia Jinuo hadn’t scored a single point, clearly not trying to win first place.

Actually, she should have seen it at the fourth location, but the final result misled her, making her think Xia Jinuo was finding an alternative path.

Now Jiang Li realized that Xia Jinuo was genuinely slacking off.

Indeed, was it because she was originally an Omega, and her sexual orientation didn’t change with her gender? Xia Jinuo had no interest in her at all, and only wanted to talk about other Alphas.
