The Movie Queen, a Flirty Omega, Has Been Plotting Against Me for a Long Time (GL) - Chapter 1

It was June, the beginning of summer, and the weather was slowly starting to heat up.

Jiangning, being in the south, would enter its plum rain season at this time of year. For long periods, the sky would be overcast and the rain constant.

Today, it was a rare break in the weather. A heavy downpour had fallen in the morning, but by noon, the sun broke through the clouds, revealing a faint light. Gradually, the sunshine became blazing hot, and there was no more rain, even into the evening.

The fresh air after the rain brought a long-missed sense of relief.

Because the rain had stopped, people who had been cooped up inside for days all decided to go out.

At ten o’clock in the evening, Chu Zhou changed into a casual outfit: workwear-style jogger pants, paired with a black, sleeveless, ultra-cropped tank top that revealed her navel with the slightest movement. She accented the look with a stylish leather belt and a pair of combat boots.

Her smooth black hair was draped over her shoulders, every strand obediently resting where she wanted it, making her look both Alpha (A) and sharp, with a hint of subtle sexiness amid the handsomeness.

No wonder many people online called her their dream Alpha—she didn’t give off that rigid, “Iron A” feeling.

After all, in this world, Alphas are considered superior. The nobility of their bloodline often made many Alphas, in both their dress and behavior, quite repellent.

As society developed, voices advocating for ABO equality emerged, and those arrogant Alphas became extremely unpopular; many Omegas disliked that type of Alpha.

Chu Zhou’s usual style of dress was varied. She wore formal attire for work—of course, not dull business suits, but a mature, stylish professional look, minimizing her youthful age and highlighting her capable and mature side.

In private, her clothing style was more stunning, sometimes a gentle long dress, sometimes sexy and dazzling, and sometimes, like today, she dressed in a cool, sharp Alpha style, attracting many gazes along the way.

Her destination was the commercial district not far from her residence. About ten minutes on foot, she would see the U-shaped building, one of Jiangning’s largest shopping malls. Behind the building were theaters and cinemas, and further ahead was a street.

The street was lined with small stalls offering food, drink, and entertainment—a night market.

To the left of the street were various restaurants, including barbecue and crayfish. Tables could be set up outside the restaurant entrances, like the open-air food stalls of the past. High-end restaurants were also present, making it a “food street” with a rich variety of cuisine.

To the right of the street were the bars: various quiet bars, deafeningly loud nightclubs, and Live Houses for band and indie singer tours. Essentially, to many people, they were all places for drinking and having fun.

The night market was packing up at this hour, but the nightlife was just beginning. The bright, bustling street, filled with young and fashionable men and women, had a unique and exciting atmosphere.

Chu Zhou was headed to the only women-only bar here, a “Le Bar.” Although the patrons are divided by ABO bloodline, they are also divided by gender, and since the outer organs of the two genders are different, some women, whether Alpha or Omega, simply do not like men, leading to the creation of Le Bars.

This Le Bar had only recently opened, and every Saturday it hosted a different theme. Today’s theme was reportedly “uniforms.”

Under the pleading and threats of her best friend, she had agreed to meet at the bar at ten o’clock, but she only left her house at ten and slowly made her way into the bar.

When her friend saw her, she immediately shouted, “Chu Zhou, you’re late! Three penalty drinks for you first.”

Chu Zhou was in a bad mood, so she picked up the glasses without hesitation and quickly downed the drinks in all three.

Hua Nanyi looked at her in surprise. “Did something unhappy happen?”

Their families were close, and they had grown up together, so she knew what Chu Zhou was like. The fact that Chu Zhou was drinking so readily was telling.

Her eyes lit up. “Did you break up with your online crush?”

Chu Zhou: “???”

“What online crush? I don’t have an online crush.”

She said angrily, “We met when we were little, and we’re not dating.”

Hua Nanyi scoffed. “I don’t believe you. Who would think that Miss Chu, the heir of Chu Yue, wouldn’t date a real person and insist on an online romance?”

Chu Zhou clenched her fist, picked up a cherry tomato from the table, and threw it at Hua Nanyi. “Get lost.”

“Fine, I’ll get lost.”

Hua Nanyi smiled and entered the dance floor, swaying her body alluringly. Anyone who didn’t know her might think she was an Omega. Her enchanting look made the people on the stage start centering their attention on her.

Chu Zhou chuckled. Her friend often pretended to be an Omega to captivate many Alphas, then subtly slip away.

She sat in the booth, watching her friend enjoy herself recklessly, and her mood improved significantly.

Chu Zhou leaned back on the sofa and pulled out her phone to check her messages. The name she had pinned to the top still hadn’t sent a message.

She took a deep breath, put the phone down, and suddenly felt a little sad, unsure what she was holding on to.

So, she drank by herself, rejecting several attempts at small talk, until her head felt woozy before she finally put down her glass.

Just then, a slender, fair hand placed a carton of milk in front of her. She tilted her head in confusion, not understanding why there was milk in a bar.

Milk certainly wasn’t on the bar’s menu.

She narrowed her eyes to look at the woman. From the woman’s perspective, Chu Zhou’s eyes were visibly unfocused, clearly indicating she wasn’t entirely sober.

“Flirting?” Chu Zhou’s two words were phrased as a question but sounded like a confirmation of the woman’s action.

“Mhm~”

Chu Zhou crossed her arms, looking slightly tipsy. “I don’t do serious.”

“Me neither.”

The woman brushed back her slightly curled hair, revealing the patch on her back neck, indicating she wasn’t in her special period.

During the special period, a specific type of inhibitor patch is required, otherwise, Omegas cannot control their pheromones.

Chu Zhou smiled lightly and agreed easily. “Let’s go.”

“Huh?”

“Hotel. One-night stand.”

Chu Zhou’s straightforward words made the woman in front of her raise an eyebrow in surprise, then chuckle softly. “Alright.”

As she left, Chu Zhou picked up the milk, glanced at it, and then threw it back onto the table. She didn’t want to sober up.

She had rejected so many people, yet only agreed to this one woman, naturally because the woman was beautiful.

The woman had striking, bold features, perfectly suited for heavy makeup. She knew what kind of makeup suited her. Since she was at a bar, she naturally wasn’t bare-faced. Her fiery red lipstick was ultimately seductive, incredibly dazzling, and captivatingly beautiful.

Such makeup should be paired with sexy attire to fully express the allure, yet she was wearing white shirt and trousers. The shirt was tucked into her pants, the sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing her delicate wrists and long, fair hands.

Just by looking at her straight back, she appeared proper and serious. Beneath the straight-cut trousers, long, slender legs were hidden. Her thin high heels seemed intent on stepping on others.

It was an air of forbidden allure, yet it seemed to invite people closer, making them want to tear away her fabricated surface and push her past the point of self-control.

The contrast between her stunning looks and her cool, aloof temperament was strangely enticing.

Chu Zhou obediently followed behind the woman. The woman was wearing high heels and appeared to be the same height as her.

She wasn’t sure why she agreed to leave with the woman. It might have been the alcohol, or perhaps those familiar eyes.

She was twenty-four years old, graduated with a master’s degree one year ago, and had been involved in handling company matters at Chu Yue since she was eighteen.

After graduation, her mom and mummy retired, handing the company over to her. Her life, from childhood, had been planned out.

Before eighteen, she learned various skills; after eighteen, she learned to handle company business until she took over the company.

She had never been in a relationship her entire life. It wasn’t that no one pursued her; she just hadn’t met anyone she liked.

Plenty of people had tried to flirt with her at bars before, but she had never been tempted, yet upon seeing the woman’s familiar eyes, she proactively suggested going to a hotel.

Although it was her first time, they were both adults. Once they arrived at the hotel, they naturally wouldn’t spend the entire night playing games.

Some things happened naturally. The hotel room was soon filled with the scent of pheromones.

The light, clear fragrance of tea intertwined with the distant, gentle sweetness of citrus, awakening the deep-seated desire within them and making them more sensual.

They felt as if they were deep in a forest, a pure return to nature after the rain, making them sink into the sensation, unable to pull away.

The night was intoxicating. The next day, the sun filtered through the curtains, and Chu Zhou sat blankly on the bed, clearly still not fully awake.

Once she regained a little consciousness, her memory returned. The woman seemed to have left at the break of dawn. She had woken up for a moment but felt that opening her eyes would be too awkward, so she only relaxed and went back to sleep after the room door closed.

She never expected she would be so reckless last night, having a fling with a stranger. Although the woman was indeed beautiful and her pheromones were highly compatible with hers, still…

Oh well, it happened. It was too late to regret it now.

She massaged her stiff neck with sore fingers and took a while to recover before getting up to go to the bathroom.

Standing in front of the full-length mirror in the bathroom, she saw the scattered lipstick marks all over her body. Her face flushed red, and she immediately stopped thinking about it.

Chu Zhou quickly tidied up, preparing to go home to shower and change.

Before she could even leave the hotel, her assistant called. “Miss Chu, don’t forget about the banquet tonight. I’ll bring the stylist to your place at three.”

It was the welcome banquet for the international movie queen, Shen Qingli.

Shen Qingli had returned to China and signed with Chu Yue. With her mom and mummy acting as hands-off executives, Chu Zhou, as the CEO of Chu Yue, naturally had to attend.

However, this name was identical to that of an old acquaintance of hers.

But her acquaintance had studied abroad for many years and should be staying there to work now, right? She would absolutely not become a celebrity. Chu Zhou was certain they were not the same person…
