The Matrilocal Alpha and the Cold Actress Sweetly Explode on a Romance Variety Show (GL) - Chapter 12
“Then are you going to let me drink it?”
Shen Tangxi said her line as required. She couldn’t help but blush because of the overly intimate nature of the dialogue.
Her pale skin seemed to be tinged with a faint glow, her features appeared even more delicate and captivating, and the look in her beautiful eyes, gazing at her lover, was stunning.
The staff at the scene held their breath. The intimate atmosphere permeating the screen was difficult to describe accurately with words. It was like a soft, hazy filter had been applied, creating an overwhelming sense of attraction. They couldn’t bear to interrupt the scene.
It wasn’t until a long moment later that the director called “Cut!”
Everyone snapped out of their trance, deeply impressed by the commercial’s presentation. The most crucial factor in a good commercial is its ability to make the product appealing and create a desire to purchase it.
Shen Tangxi and Yu Xingyu were practically born for commercials. The couple’s interaction was so sweet that it created an instant impulse to place an order, proving how successful the shoot was.
Industry insiders acknowledged the success, genuinely looking forward to the commercial’s release.
Furthermore, the sales method for the orange juice included a commission for the guests. Since the guests filmed the commercial, they would be given individual sales links. A portion of every purchase made by fans would be counted toward the guests’ earnings.
For this orange juice sale, the manufacturer also produced promotional merchandise, including small cards, using the commercial footage, which would be sold together with the orange juice.
If a fan purchased one case (10 bottles) of orange juice, they would receive two small cards, or one single poster, or one double poster.
There were a total of 12 unique guest small cards. To collect every single card, one would need to buy at least 6 to 10 cases. This type of promotion is usually a competition based on popularity. Only highly popular guests qualify for such a purchase system. High accumulated sales prove that the guests are strongly favored by the audience.
Yu Xingyu and Shen Tangxi were in the resting room, drinking “Mimi” brand orange juice, which they were promoting.
The orange juice was perfectly sweet and sour, very delicious, and it was a healthy beverage with 100% natural ingredients.
Zhou Sisi was excitedly holding a phone nearby, chatting animatedly with the promotion company’s representative, gesticulating wildly.
She soon raised her voice:
“Really? Really??”
“A dual-brand endorsement? Oh my goodness! I understand. I guarantee there won’t be any issues. We’ll wait for the sales results this time.”
After hanging up, Zhou Sisi instantly jumped up in excitement, startling the two women.
They didn’t know what had happened to Sister Zhou.
Zhou Sisi rushed over, shaking both Shen Tangxi and Yu Xingyu’s arms excitedly.
“Do you two realize that the original choice for the orange juice endorsement was Wen Chuyi and Qi Qingxu? Because of all the previous negative reviews, they hadn’t even considered us! But I just heard from the sales director that this is a sales competition. If our sales volume is higher than Wen Chuyi’s side, then they will choose to sign both of you for the dual endorsement contract!”
Shen Tangxi nodded. Signing an endorsement would certainly be good. She wasn’t particularly fixated on it, as someone of her status could usually secure any endorsement she wanted.
But right now, she wanted to establish herself in the entertainment industry based on her own merit, not rely on her family’s background.
This orange juice endorsement had benefits: it could expand her recognition and increase the audience’s favor and acceptance of her. However, even if she didn’t get it, it wouldn’t significantly impact her.
Yu Xingyu remembered her Sister telling her that the goal of going on this show was to gain popularity. Therefore, this endorsement was a rare opportunity that they must seize.
If only one couple could get the endorsement, it had to be her and her Sister.
“Sister Zhou, don’t worry. We will perform even better on the show. We will fight for any opportunity we get.”
“Little Yu is sensible. You two should post a Weibo promotional message shortly and firmly grasp this opportunity.”
After saying this, Zhou Sisi left the two to discuss what to post on Weibo.
Yu Xingyu thought for a long time and said to Shen Tangxi: “Sister, how about we post a picture of our matching rings?”
She extended her slender fingers, displaying the couple’s rings they were wearing.
Shen Tangxi also looked at the diamond ring on her finger. It sparkled under the light, radiating a special brilliance.
Her engagement to Yu Xingyu was now public knowledge. And while their meeting was sudden, the duration of acquaintance truly didn’t mean anything.
She had known Song Hanyue for a long time, yet she still didn’t truly understand what kind of person she was.
But with Yu Xingyu, despite the short time they had known each other, she trusted her character completely. Being with her gave her a very solid, secure feeling.
It was an ordinary kind of happiness—the kind where she could get a response whenever she needed her.
Shen Tangxi knew very early on that she was serious about Yu Xingyu, so she didn’t hesitate and nodded readily: “Okay, we’ll post that.”
Yu Xingyu excitedly grabbed Shen Tangxi’s hand. Her first reaction was to immediately move closer to her Sister to stick close.
Zhou Sisi, knowing better than to interrupt the young couple, quietly left the room.
Shen Tangxi took out her phone to take a detailed photo of her diamond ring, when suddenly, her soft hand was possessively held in the Alpha’s grasp.
Yu Xingyu gently interlocked her fingers with her Sister’s. Their hands were tightly clasped, intimate and lingering, the intertwined hands full of emotion and highly suggestive.
The angle was perfect for capturing the two rings.
Shen Tangxi was focused on taking the photo, unaware that a jade-green vine was creeping up her ankle from below.
The moment she felt a ticklish sensation, her entire body stiffened, and her calm expression faltered.
“Why are you being naughty again?”
Yu Xingyu felt her Sister’s body was incredibly comforting, making her feel very secure, and the vine desperately lacked warmth.
It’s just a little homeless child, who wants to be taken in by Sister to get warm and have its own home.
“Clinging to Sister feels so comfortable. But, you know, it’s so pitiful and lonely… Can’t you let me cling to you when no one is around, Sister?”
Yu Xingyu even directed the vine to gently brush against Shen Tangxi’s skin within their tightly clasped hands.
“Sister, touch it. It’s a very obedient baby.”
She had been with her Sister for so long, but she had never openly displayed her vine in front of her.
One reason was her own previous discomfort. After all, she was once just a normal university student from an ordinary world. Now, suddenly growing a vine-like plant made her lack the courage to let it out.
Furthermore, the first two times, the vine had emerged uncontrollably on its own; she hadn’t intentionally manipulated it.
Through her experiences during this time, Yu Xingyu gradually accepted the vine as part of her body and started embracing it. This gave her the courage to display it openly in front of her Sister.
Shen Tangxi’s face turned red again. The previous encounters were in bed, in a semi-conscious state, so she hadn’t thought much about it.
But now, in broad daylight, being this conscious while touching Yu Xingyu’s vine was extremely embarrassing.
The little puppy is brazenly acting indecently!
However, to her surprise, the vine was warm to the touch. It had soft barbs and lots of plant fuzz, feeling warm, springy, and very elastic.
The vine could bend and sway $360^circ$ at will. It could twist into any shape and contort anything into a different form, making it incredibly flexible and resilient.
Since it had a body temperature slightly warmer than a normal person’s, Shen Tangxi felt like it was alive.
She slowly touched it, holding her breath. Yu Xingyu leaned in, wanting to kiss her Sister.
But just as she leaned in, she remembered she hadn’t taken the photo yet. So, she hastily took a picture of their two diamond rings with her phone, quickly uploaded it to Weibo, and edited a casual message:
“We are together @ShenTangxi.”
After sending the photo, she immediately focused on embracing her Sister and making out with her.
When the fans saw this photo, they were utterly shocked.
A ring, a diamond ring—this was a proposal! The two were serious! This was too much ‘sugar’ for the fans.
The orange juice commercial sponsor seized the opportunity and released the commercial Yu Xingyu and Shen Tangxi had filmed.
After watching it, the CP fans in the comment section exploded.
【AAAAh! I’m going to buy it all! Buy out the stock!】
【Force those two to kiss! Kiss for three days and three nights without stopping!】
【I especially love the orange juice. I drink several bottles a day. Be smart and get the link up fast. I’m buying ten cases for the small cards!】
【They’re so sweet! I want to move a bed in for you two right now. Sisters, don’t worry about us. You just do your thing. We can handle it!】
【We won’t stop buying orange juice, but our CP must not stop doing it!】
“…”
The final commercial was a beautifully crafted piece, edited by several expert editors.
After editing, the original intimate atmosphere was magnified a hundredfold. The scene was already sweet live, but now it drove people even wilder.
Furthermore, the small card photos featured the two guests embracing intimately, kissing on the cheek, and the Omega sitting directly on the Alpha’s lap.
How could anyone not be tempted?
They wanted to buy all the small cards, even if it meant going bankrupt.
The link for the 30,000 cases of orange juice sold out in less than a minute. Many people who didn’t get to buy felt regretful that they weren’t fast enough to grab the small cards.
The sheer popularity stunned many people.
Yu Xingyu and Shen Tangxi were also shocked, never expecting the orange juice to sell so quickly. They were even more amazed to hear that some fans had opened five accounts and placed over a hundred orders.
There were also many cases of entire families mobilizing to buy 200 cases of orange juice. Were they planning to bathe in orange juice? This was truly insane.
Meanwhile, Wen Chuyi’s side barely sold 20,000 cases on the first day, falling far short of their sales. Zhou Sisi was so excited by the news that she couldn’t sleep all night.
Because this dual endorsement was now truly going to belong to them.
Preparation for the Next Shoot
Once the endorsement was settled, Yu Xingyu and Shen Tangxi began preparing their outfits for the next variety show recording.
For this show, they chose a silver-white A-line mini-skirt, a trendy spaghetti-strap top, and silver over-the-knee boots.
This outfit was incredibly seductive and provocative, making her already slender figure look even more delicate and captivating.
Yu Xingyu’s eyes held intense adoration. She suddenly remembered something and rummaged through a box she had brought, taking out a jewelry box.
She directly presented a set of retro punk cyber-style accessories to Shen Tangxi.
This set of accessories was also handmade by her.
It included a pair of earrings, a neck choker, armbands, a waist chain, and tassel leg rings.
Yu Xingyu took out the set, excitedly pulling Shen Tangxi and introducing the design story with fervent eyes.
“Sister, I designed this for you. You are my muse. Please put them on and try them out.”
Shen Tangxi was also attracted by the unique design. She now felt that Yu Xingyu was a talented artist, surprisingly gifted in art. She knew Yu Xingyu hadn’t majored in design, so she wondered where this talent came from.
However, Yu Xingyu’s family was relatively well-off before her parents died, so even if she had artistic talent, it might have been hindered by her life of debt.
Now that she could rekindle her hobbies and dreams, it was a very good thing, and Shen Tangxi was highly supportive.
Yu Xingyu began helping Shen Tangxi put on the accessories.
The others were easy to wear, but the tassel leg ring was quite complicated.
Because it was so unique, it was incredibly sexy to wear. The placement was on her Sister’s inner thigh, a location guaranteed to cause a rush of blood.
Yu Xingyu’s slender fingers intentionally brushed the area nearby, causing Shen Tangxi’s face to flush crimson. She could only glare at her, urging her to hurry up.
But the little puppy deliberately took her time, softly stroking that area.
Others couldn’t see it, but Shen Tangxi couldn’t take it anymore. Just as she was about to move away.
Yu Xingyu suddenly leaned in and kissed her, gently licking the skin on her inner thigh.
