The Anti-Alpha Protagonist is Exceptionally Biased Towards Me (GL) - Chapter 65

It was late at night. The chief director of the variety show On the Country Road  had just finished reviewing the plan for the next episode. He rubbed his brow, intending to rest.

The next second, his phone rang cheerfully. It was a number without any notes.

The chief director frowned, wondering who was calling so late. He hesitated for a moment but still answered.

His private number was not public, so the caller must be someone in the industry.

“Hello? Who is this?”

“…”

“Yes, I’m Yan Tian, the chief director of On the Country Road . May I ask who you are?”

The person on the other end said something, and Yan Tian, who had been looking impatient, suddenly became extremely respectful.

“Are you sure the person wants to come to this variety show?”

“…”

“No, no. Although this is a pastoral variety show, you know that the rural environment is always incomparable to the city. I’m just worried that person might not adapt.”

“…”

“It’s fine, it’s fine! It doesn’t matter if they are an ordinary person. We guarantee that no negative comments will appear online.”

“…”

“Yes, the cast list will only be announced after the recording is complete.”

After hanging up, Yan Tian put down his phone and took a deep breath, his excitement barely contained.

He immediately called the publicity team.

“Increase the publicity for the next episode. Notify the program planning team to work overtime tonight and finalize the program flow.”

“A new guest is coming.”

The publicity team was a little surprised and asked, “Who is it?”

“You’d never guess!” Yan Tian’s smile was radiant. He said, “That person is a heavyweight.”

“The sister of the Xingchen Entertainment President, the second young lady of the Song family in the capital, Song Xinran!!!”

His heart was pounding for a long time, and the fingers holding the phone trembled slightly.

How could he not be excited? That was the Song family! The audience for their show was limited. No matter what, the popularity was fixed. The fan loyalty was high, but it didn’t break through!

If someone from the Song family participated, their variety show would certainly have exposure opportunities! Moreover, Miss Song was investing in the show in her personal name. A proper financier!!!

They must seize the opportunity, they must seize the opportunity! This episode was their only hope.

Unlike the ecstatic Yan Tian, the second young lady of the Song family, Song Xinran, whom he was so grateful to, was currently having a chaotic heartbeat.

She was lying on the bed, facing up, sleeping straight and proper. Next to her was Gu Yu, lying in the same posture. They were resting on different pillows but covered by the same blanket.

Due to the special circumstances during this period, and after agreeing to mutual aid, Gu Yu needed to stay in her room for the next few nights after discussion.

This was their first night sleeping in the same bed. Both felt a strange, subtle nervousness, afraid to move. Their palms were faintly sweaty under the quilt.

Even though the air conditioner was on.

Fortunately, the bed was large enough, almost two meters wide. There was absolutely no problem for two people to lie down. It didn’t feel crowded at all; instead, there was a three-fist-sized gap between them.

The surrounding air was silent. Song Xinran couldn’t help but slow her breathing.

“Gu Yu, are you asleep?” she asked softly.

The time was not very late for young people. At least, the nightlife for young people was just beginning. Located in the center of the capital, the outside should theoretically be lively. However, the Song residence occupied an enormous area. The city’s hustle and bustle were diminished by the distance, and all that reached the window was the stillness of the deep night.

She hadn’t thought much of it before, but now Song Xinran felt a little lonely.

But the alpha’s voice broke this loneliness in the next second.

“Not yet.” Gu Yu opened her eyes, quietly looking at the ceiling, answering Miss Song’s question.

Song Xinran wanted to continue saying something, but she couldn’t overcome the awkwardness in her heart.

Since she impulsively grabbed the alpha’s collar and kissed her in the afternoon, her rationality had returned, and her mood had remained like this.

Shy and awkward, she hoped Gu Yu would forget her rashness, yet she didn’t want Gu Yu to forget the intimacy between them.

In fact, she was already a little confused about what their relationship actually was.

The phone on the pillow suddenly vibrated, breaking the stagnation in the air. It was Song Xinran’s phone.

She seemed to have finally found something to do and immediately picked up her phone.

Someone had sent her a message.

Miss Song, the variety show has been negotiated.

Song Xinran thought for a moment and knew exactly what the person was referring to.

Earlier this afternoon, she decided to participate in the variety show with Gu Yu.

Since she knew Gu Yu had an announcement to fulfill, she didn’t want to burden Gu Yu because of the pheromones or make Gu Yu compromise and give up anything for her.

Therefore, she chose to approach Gu Yu in her own way.

At first, it was just a thought, but then the idea grew stronger, making her忍不住 lean her head and ask Gu Yu: “I want to participate in the variety show with you. Is that okay?”

“Yes.”

Song Xinran was surprised: “You agreed so quickly.”

She thought Gu Yu would at least think for a few seconds or ask “Why.”

But Gu Yu didn’t seem to think so at the time, and she said seriously, “As long as you want to, you can.” So she didn’t hesitate too much.

At that time, Song Xinran almost blurted out: If I want to be your lover? Is that okay, too?

Fortunately, the last bit of rationality prevented her from saying it.

Her thoughts returned. She simply replied to the person on the phone: Got it.

With just a few words, the chat ended simply and casually. Song Xinran put her phone back.

The alpha next to her had shallow breathing, but the presence of a person next to her was still too strong.

Yet, she was not bothered at all. She even… liked it a bit.

“Gu Yu…”

“I’m here.” Gu Yu responded. “What is it?”

Song Xinran’s heart skipped a beat. Only then did she realize that she had unconsciously spoken the alpha’s name that she was thinking in her heart.

She said with a hint of delight: “We can go to the variety show together!”

A faint smile appeared in Gu Yu’s eyes. She said, “That’s good.”

Perhaps it was the deep night that made her voice soft, and these two words also carried a slight indulgence.

Song Xinran couldn’t help but slightly turn her face, believing her gaze to be subtle as she looked at the person beside her.

The main light in the room was turned off. Only the soft light from the bedside lamp was dimly lit.

The alpha’s profile was superb. Her dark hair was scattered on the pillow. Her eyelashes were very long, and the black tear mole at the corner of her eye was particularly noticeable under the orange-warm light. Her whole person looked like a spread-out ink wash painting, both subtle and elegant.

Gu Yu is truly beautiful…

Song Xinran was somewhat lost in thought. The next moment, she saw the other person also turn her face and look over, mirroring her!

“!”

Their eyes met, and Song Xinran’s body slightly stiffened.

Gu Yu’s eyes held confusion. Her dark pupils reflected Song Xinran’s figure, as if asking her “What’s wrong?”

Song Xinran lightly coughed, trying to cover up:

“Gu Yu, do you feel like the pheromones are a little unstable again?”

She was trying to change the subject but didn’t expect Gu Yu to hesitate and say:

“Then… should we hold hands to sleep?”

Song Xinran’s ears were burning. She said, “O-okay.”

After speaking, she tried hard to act naturally as she reached out her hand. Under the quilt, the two hands fumbled and moved closer to each other.

The moment they touched the other’s skin, both paused. Then, their palms pressed together, and their fingers interlaced through the gaps.

Until their fingers were completely entwined.

The sun rose the next day. The crisp chirping of birds outside the window faintly filtered into the room through the slightly ajar curtains.

Gu Yu’s eyelashes trembled. Her punctual biological clock woke her up.

When she opened her eyes, her first feeling was that she seemed to be holding something in her arms. The touch was very soft and warm. Her other arm was being pressed by something and couldn’t be pulled out for the moment.

Just woken up, her brain was in a state of semi-consciousness. Her body’s instinct made her raise her arm and tighten her embrace.

Two soft bodies were pressed tightly together.

This action might have startled the person in her arms. The fingers wrapped around Gu Yu’s waist moved, showing signs of waking up.

The pheromones became somewhat active as their owner woke up. Both their pheromones tentatively showed a little spike. Upon meeting each other, they joyfully intertwined.

The rich red wine and the elegant alpine lotus leaf blended together, appearing surprisingly harmonious.

Influenced by the pheromones in her hazy consciousness, Gu Yu unconsciously lowered her head. Her nose nudged against the side of the neck of the person in her arms, which was closest to the gland, and began to gently rub.

“So fragrant…”

Song Xinran’s body instantly stiffened like wood. She widened her eyes, finally fully awake.

Gu Yu also acutely sensed this abnormality. Her consciousness slowly focused, and after seeing the situation in front of her, the drowsiness immediately vanished completely.

Sometime last night, they had crossed the safe distance, changing from sleeping on two pillows to sharing one. Miss Song was curled up in her arms. Their dark and light brown hair was intertwined, pressed together in such an intimate manner, so close that she could feel the other’s touch and temperature in the early morning.

They quickly separated, returning to the distance they had before falling asleep last night.

“I… I…”

“I’m going to wash up first!” Song Xinran hastily left this sentence and scrambled up and out of the bed.

When she reached the bathroom, she leaned against the door, her hands braced on the sink.

The skin that Gu Yu had touched felt like it was burning. Morning was the time when her body was restless and sensitive. She… felt a little weak in the legs.

The filming of On the Country Road was imminent, and she needed to start packing the things she needed to take.

One of the gimmicks of this variety show was its down-to-earth nature, experiencing the country and nature firsthand. The cast members certainly couldn’t bring assistants, and even their luggage had to be inspected by the production team.

Gu Yu had given her assistant a few days off earlier. Now that the vacation was over, Yang Tian messaged her, saying she wanted to help pack her luggage.

Considering that she would be with Miss Song these two days and it was inconvenient to return to her own residential area, Gu Yu agreed.

Unexpectedly, an hour later, Yang Tian suddenly messaged her: Sister Yu Yu, there are several reporters in your residential area. They seem to be staking you out, maybe seven or eight of them!

Gu Yu frowned upon hearing this.

This was truly strange. Logically, Path of Immortals hadn’t aired yet. Although Gu Yu had been trending a few times, there hadn’t been any paparazzi staking her out even at the peak of her popularity. Now that the popularity had slightly decreased, why had the number of paparazzi staking her out increased so much instead?

Her intuition told her that something must have happened again.

As if by telepathy, the moment this thought crossed her mind, her phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID, Gu Yu inexplicably felt that it must be related to the paparazzi stakeout.

Sure enough, as soon as the call connected, Li Ruqin’s anxious and suppressed angry voice rang out.

“Gu Yu, don’t go downstairs today. Your address has been leaked, and there are many paparazzi staking you out downstairs.”

She still didn’t know that Gu Yu was not at home, and she continued: “Lu Feng set a trap for you. I just don’t understand why he hates you so much.”

So much happened recently that Gu Yu didn’t immediately remember who Lu Feng was for the first two seconds.

After a moment, she recalled that he was the male lead actor of Path of Immortals.

Gu Yu asked, “What did he do?”

Li Ruqin said: “You haven’t checked Weibo yet, right? Path of Immortals officially wrapped up, and the media interviewed Lu Feng. He was subtly creating a negative narrative about you in his words.”

“Go check it out. Anyway, don’t go downstairs today. I’ve already contacted the property management about the paparazzi. I don’t know if they can be evicted.”

After the call ended, Gu Yu pondered briefly and opened Weibo, which she hadn’t logged into for several days.
