Everyone Loves the Alpha, But He’s Not Interested [Transmigration] - Chapter 98

Ning Xi thought to herself: Of course, it’s because my wife is more beautiful than the scenery.

But with the GoPro right in front of her, Ning Xi couldn’t say that out loud.

Her cheeks slightly flushed as she turned her head and pointed to her side of the car window. “Since Teacher Yu thinks the view on my side is better, you should look over here more often.”

And look at me more while you’re at it.

Yu Qingxue was someone who took suggestions to heart. After Ning Xi spoke, she actually propped her elbow on the window and turned to look at Ning Xi’s side.

Ning Xi couldn’t tell whether she was looking at her or the scenery. Her ears turned red, perfectly captured by the GoPro in front of her.

Fortunately, the strawberry farm wasn’t far. When the car stopped, Yu Qingxue finally withdrew her gaze and got out from her side.

Ning Xi covered her chest and said to the GoPro, “I keep feeling like Teacher Yu wasn’t looking at the scenery but at me. My heart is racing so fast it’s about to go off the charts.”

The four cars arrived at the strawberry farm one after another, where staff led them into a greenhouse.

The moment she entered, Ning Xi was greeted by the rich, sweet aroma of strawberries. She turned to Yu Qingxue beside her and asked, “Teacher Yu, do you like strawberries?”

Yu Qingxue replied, “They’re alright. I like all sweet fruits.”

Ning Xi nodded. “I understand now.”

Yu Qingxue gave her a puzzled look, about to ask what she meant, when a staff member approached to inform them there were four greenhouses in total and they would be taking the two of them to another one separately.

Distracted by the staff, Yu Qingxue temporarily forgot her question and followed along with Ning Xi to the adjacent greenhouse.

“Our strawberries are pesticide-free, so you can eat them straight from the vine,” the staff member said before leaving them alone in the greenhouse.

Lush green leaves cradled bright red, tempting strawberries. With GoPros installed inside, the two were indeed left to themselves.

Ning Xi carried a basket, picking large, ripe strawberries from among the leaves until it was full.

Setting the basket aside, she returned to Yu Qingxue, who was eating a strawberry. After one bite, Yu Qingxue frowned at its sourness.

Ning Xi asked, “This strawberry looks big and red, is it really that sour?”

Yu Qingxue said, “I can’t stand even the slightest sourness in fruit. It’s sweet enough, but still a bit tart.”

“I like sour things. Give it to me.” Ning Xi took the half-eaten strawberry from Yu Qingxue’s hand and popped it into her mouth, instantly filling it with sweet juice.

“I get it now, you can’t handle this level of sourness,” Ning Xi said after swallowing.

Yu Qingxue: “…” What exactly do you keep understanding?

Ning Xi plucked another vibrant red strawberry, took a bite, and with relaxed brows, offered it to Yu Qingxue with a smile. “This one’s really sweet, no sourness at all. Try it.”

Yu Qingxue glanced at the surrounding GoPros. “No need, you can have it.”

Undeterred, Ning Xi brought the strawberry to Yu Qingxue’s lips. “Come on, I know you want to. Don’t worry about the cameras we can just ask Director Han to cut this part later. We’ll film some normal footage afterward.”

“So you admit this isn’t normal behavior,” Yu Qingxue muttered before taking a bite. The rich sweetness immediately won her over. “It’s so sweet.”

Ning Xi smiled and said, “Sweet, isn’t it? With me testing them for you first, I can make sure you get only the sweetest strawberries.”

Yu Qingxue, having already eaten some, stopped pretending and started picking the strawberries she thought looked delicious for Ning Xi to taste. In no time, she had eaten over a dozen sweet strawberries, while Ning Xi, her designated strawberry tester, had eaten at least thirty.

“I think this one must be really sweet,” Yu Qingxue said enthusiastically, plucking another large strawberry and bringing it to Ning Xi’s lips for her to try.

Ning Xi took a small bite and frowned slightly.

“Not sweet?” Yu Qingxue asked.

Ning Xi looked up at her, her fair skin complementing her clear, bright eyes, her delicate nose, and her plump, glossy lips glistening with strawberry juice.

“No, it’s very sweet,” Ning Xi said. “But what if I want to eat it too?”

A faint glimmer flashed in Ning Xi’s dark eyes as they lingered on Yu Qingxue’s red lips.

Yu Qingxue blinked. “Then… let’s share?”

Before she could finish speaking, Ning Xi had already pressed half the strawberry against her lips.

The cool fruit pressed against her mouth, its sweet juice instantly moistening her lips. As Yu Qingxue parted her lips slightly to take a bite, she found something else entering her mouth besides the strawberry.

…

About ten minutes later, Ning Xi finally released Yu Qingxue’s waist.

She had already checked the GoPro’s position beforehand their kiss would only be captured from behind, showing their legs but completely avoiding their faces.

Yu Qingxue, weak-kneed from the kiss, leaned against her to catch her breath, her cheeks finally returning to their normal color. But her lips were now a deep red, slightly swollen.

Ning Xi leaned in again, capturing the remaining strawberry juice from Yu Qingxue’s lips with her own, her tongue lightly sweeping over them before pulling away.

Yu Qingxue touched her lips. “Yours are swollen too. Even if we reshoot normal scenes, it’ll be obvious, won’t it?”

Ning Xi replied, “We just won’t let the GoPro catch our faces.”

She pointed out the camera’s position and its shooting range to Yu Qingxue. “We’ll just film some scenes of us picking strawberries and chatting. I already have a basket with my face in it earlier, we can splice the reshoots in between.”

Yu Qingxue: “…Did you plan this all beforehand?” How are you so smooth at this?

“Not too early, just when you mentioned liking sweet fruit,” Ning Xi said, her dark eyes filled with tender amusement. “I thought, my wife loves sweets, so how can I make sure every bite she takes is sweet?

“In the end, I came up with a simple solution: I’d taste them for you first.”

Yu Qingxue stared at Ning Xi, her heart pounding faster and faster, her cheeks flushing a deep pink again.

Ning Xi squeezed her fingers. “Touched?”

Yu Qingxue was, indeed, deeply moved, but she felt too shy to admit it on camera. Knowing Han Dao and the crew were likely watching, she forced her expression to remain calm and said lightly, “It’s alright. Not the most touching moment.”

Ning Xi pressed, “Then when was the most touching?”

Yu Qingxue avoided answering directly, casting her a playful glance. “Next time.”

Ning Xi smiled. “Guess I’ll have to keep trying harder then.”

The two of them filmed some additional footage and walked out of the strawberry greenhouse carrying a small basket of strawberries.

Outside, Zhou Jianbai and Sun Qize were standing together talking. Sun Qize’s face was slightly flushed, while Zhou Jianbai’s eyes were red. They stood facing each other in silence.

It wasn’t until they saw Ning Xi and Yu Qingxue emerge from the greenhouse that Sun Qize finally broke the stalemate between him and Zhou Jianbai.

“You were in there for so long and only picked this small basket of strawberries?”

Yu Qingxue nudged Ning Xi’s waist, prompting her to step forward and explain, “We were eating as we picked. Strawberries spoil easily, so there’s no need to pick too many.”

Yu Qingxue walked over to Zhou Jianbai, studying his face carefully. Noticing his slightly swollen lips, she suddenly smiled and grabbed both their microphones, whispering, “Zhou Zhou… did you force a kiss on Qize in there?”
