I Topped the Aloof Omega in a Scummy Alpha Novel - Chapter 31
They are the Best Match
“You’re not going to say you’ve known each other for twenty-three years just because you met once in kindergarten, are you?”
“What’s the big deal? Who hasn’t had a kindergarten classmate?”
“As far as I know, Bian Yunchen doesn’t have many close friends.”
“Known each other for so long? We don’t seem to have heard Yunchen mention it.”
“Why is there so much hostility towards Xuan Yuchi in the comments?”
“Where do all these snarky people come from?”
The comments section was a mess.
Xuan Yuchi looked at the camera, projecting an image of serene tranquility.
Morandi: “Do you two keep in touch often during these twenty-three years?”
Xuan Yuchi nodded: “We grew up playing together.”
Except for those few years.
Comments: [Oh my god, I’m jealous.] [Really? I’m a little skeptical.] [Did she see the comments and say that on purpose? She’s so scheming.]
A staff member managing the backend accidentally enabled the tipping function.
On the screen, a bucket of butter hotpot was poured over Xuan Yuchi’s head.
Colorful, flashy text flashed in the bottom left corner of the screen: User “77777” gifted a bucket of butter hotpot.
The platform limits gift levels for live stream tipping. The same butter hotpot costs 1,000 yuan in a live stream with 200 viewers.
In a live stream with 2,000 viewers, it costs 10,000 yuan, and in a live stream with over 20 million viewers, it costs 100,000 yuan.
As soon as the tipping announcement came out, many fans of Bian Yunchen cheered in the comments.
[Worthy of a fellow fan, truly powerful.] [Any rich lady want to gift her a hen?]
Morandi: “Use one sentence to describe your relationship.”
“Hmm…” Xuan Yuchi thought for a moment, “An inseparable relationship.”
She smiled after saying it.
[Doesn’t anyone else find her smile provocative?] [Why is she smiling like that?] [What does she mean by inseparable? My Shen has always been a very independent person, okay?]
A hen appeared above Xuan Yuchi’s head on the screen, raining eggs down. One egg after another fell, covering Xuan Yuchi’s face.
[Fellow fan, fellow fan, you are truly amazing.] [Help, I’m seriously laughing so hard.] [I find this hen more pleasing to the eye than a certain person.]
Bian Yunchen took her laptop to the balcony for remote work. The Bian family’s ancestral properties were managed by professionals, and her companies had capable executives, but major decisions still needed her review first.
Amy sent her a screenshot.
It was the one where Xuan Yuchi was tipped the butter hotpot.
Bian Yunchen exchanged a look with the bewildered staff member. She crooked her finger, and the staff member got up and walked over.
“I’ll close the tipping function right away,” the staff member said cautiously.
“No need.”
Bian Yunchen transferred 500,000 yuan to Amy.
Morandi: “Why did you participate in this show?”
Xuan Yuchi answered very naturally: “Because Sister Bian asked me to participate.”
[What is she showing off? What exactly is she showing off?] [I think she wants to do live stream sales herself and pestered Yunchen into joining this show.] [Which powerful fellow fan will tip her another bucket of butter hotpot?]
Bian Yunchen entered the live stream using the staff member’s account and saw a colorful flower wreath, worth 200,000 yuan, appear over Xuan Yuchi’s head.
[Did the big shot click the wrong thing?] [Why isn’t it the butter hotpot?] [Can I say, this effect looks pretty good on her.]
Morandi: “Do you have any expectations for the upcoming trip?”
Xuan Yuchi stretched and was completely oblivious to the drama in the live stream.
“I hope we have fun.”
[Is she serious? This is an adventure show.] [Just waiting for her to be scared to tears by a spider the size of her palm.]
A dazzling rocket shot out in front of Xuan Yuchi, valued at 300,000 yuan.
The staff member closed the tipping function.
The fans in the live stream keenly noticed that the person who gifted the rocket and the flower wreath was the same person.
Someone clicked into her profile…
[Oh my heavens.]
More and more people clicked into the rich lady’s profile.
[I seriously could cry.]
They concluded from the clues in this person’s account that it was Bian Yunchen’s alternate account.
[Toxic fans, do you see now?] [I will uphold Bian Yunchen’s freedom to pamper her friend.] [Some people shouldn’t use the name of Shen’s fans to bully a common person.] [I’ll support whoever Yunchen supports.]
#BianYunshenStandsUpForHerFriend trended on the hot search. #BianYunshenTipsForHerFriend trended on the hot search.
It was Bian Yunchen’s turn for the pre-departure interview.
Xuan Yuchi curiously stood with the camera operator sister.
The live feed was transmitted directly to the live stream from the camera.
Xuan Yuchi knew a little bit about photography, a basic skill she learned in college.
She had an instinctive knack for capturing beauty, and personally adjusted the camera frame, zooming in slightly.
The top-tier beauty filled most of the screen, effortlessly captivating the soul.
Bian Yunchen wore a faint smile. Her God-sculpted features made her look like an unattainable piece of art. Her long lashes fluttered, and any screenshot looked like a cinematic frame.
No wonder directors both domestic and abroad favored her so much. Some people are born to be in this business.
The fans in front of their screens almost forgot to breathe.
[Friendly reminder: you are allowed to breathe.]
This comment came from the show’s official account.
“Hello everyone, I’m the actress Bian Yunshen.” She looked at the camera, calm and composed.
The comments instantly increased by tens of millions.
Fans screamed wildly in the live stream.
Morandi: “Welcome Yunchen to Dare to Go Forward.”
“What are your expectations for this trip?”
Bian Yunchen: “I hope to see different scenery.”
Morandi: “Why did you choose Yuchi as your traveling partner?”
Bian Yunchen: “Because she is someone very familiar.”
After speaking, she looked at Xuan Yuchi. The camera operator sister immediately gave Xuan Yuchi a shot.
Xuan Yuchi wiggled her finger: “Super familiar, oh.”
She had just looked at Twitter, and there were many people criticizing her for riding on Bian Yunchen’s coattails.
She wasn’t a hypocrite. Since these people cared so much about her relationship with Yunshen, she might as well openly show their relationship.
[What’s going on, I think I’m starting to ship them a little!] [Don’t you really think the two of them look a bit good together?] [I feel like they have a strange kind of chemistry.]
Morandi: “Did Yunchen do any preparations for this trip?”
Bian Yunchen: “I did some preliminary research on wilderness survival knowledge. As for other preparations…”
Her gaze settled on Xuan Yuchi again.
“With her here, I feel very assured.”
[I feel like crying. Does our Yunchen finally have someone she can rely on?] [Today’s Yunchen feels so different.]
The tone of the comments gradually became harmonious.
Morandi gestured for Xuan Yuchi to step into the frame.
Xuan Yuchi sat down beside Yunchen. Their arms were touching, creating an aesthetically pleasing picture.
[You can’t deny it, based on their appearance, they are a great match.] [I heard this Xuan Yuchi is an Alpha, by the way.] [Shipping everything will only hurt you.] [Get a grip, how could Yunchen be interested in a regular common person?]
The comments started arguing again. There was no helping it; a big star’s every move, even the people around her, would spark controversy.
Morandi: “Then let our journey officially begin now!”
“Okay!” Xuan Yuchi raised her left hand, palm facing Bian Yunchen.
The meaning was: let’s high-five.
Bian Yunchen took her hand and brought it towards her face.
“Good luck.”
It was like an older sister cheering up a child, or a small prank. After speaking, she immediately stood up to pull her suitcase.
[A little cute, what’s going on?] [Oh, I’m shipping them… I’m faint.]
Xuan Yuchi’s hand was still pressed against her face; one might think she had a toothache.
She again had the illusion of being back to the old days with Yunchen.
Xuan Yuchi felt delighted in her heart, thinking this meant Yunchen’s psychological state was improving.
The group rushed into three cars.
The first car was an off-road vehicle specially prepared by the production team; the other two were still minivans.
Initially, only one camera operator and one PD were planned to follow, but after the incident in Pingyan city, the production team was now very serious about the safety of the two.
A camera was installed in the off-road vehicle. After the camera operator sister and Morandi took their seats in the back, Xuan Yuchi quickly took the driver’s seat.
“How should I go?” Xuan Yuchi suddenly remembered this question.
Until now, the production team hadn’t told her exactly where in Pingyan city they were going.
Xuan Yuchi thought Morandi would send her a location, but instead, Morandi gave her a map.
Pingyan city, Songshan County.
Xuan Yuchi studied the ancient and simple map.
Morandi: “Just drive to Songshan County tonight.”
[Is the production team going easy on Bian Yunchen?] [This is completely unlike the previous difficulty of Dare to Go Forward.] [I’m a passerby, this is really boring.]
Xuan Yuchi roughly memorized the route and drove for two hours, transitioning from the highway to a small road.
Now they were truly deep in the mountains, with not even another passing car around.
“Are you tired?” Bian Yunchen asked her.
“Um… I’m a little thirsty.”
Xuan Yuchi had been driving for two hours and, to keep the atmosphere lively, had to answer Morandi’s questions along the way.
It was mostly about funny stories from her and Yunchen’s childhood.
Some things she couldn’t even remember herself, but Yunchen could fill in the details.
Xuan Yuchi was parched from talking, and the fans listened with keen interest.
More and more people were shipping the couple in the comments, and everyone seemed to have accepted Xuan Yuchi as Yunchen’s long-time childhood friend.
Bian Yunchen twisted open a bottle of mineral water. Xuan Yuchi was about to take it, but the water was already at her lips.
Xuan Yuchi took a sip, and the comments went wild shipping them again.
Amy and her colleagues watched the entire process in the office.
Colleague Xiaoting: “Sister Amy, should we guide the public opinion to focus on friendship, not…”
Colleague Panpan: “Yunchen has never marketed any scandals or couples. Won’t this lower her standing?”
Colleague Duo Ran: “Plus, we have absolutely no need to market a couple with a… common person.”
Amy cleared her throat lightly: “This is Yunchen’s wish.”
The colleagues’ faces showed expressions of shock.
Many popular celebrities had tried to bundle their names with Yunchen for couple marketing, but the company prevented it in various ways.
So, did the boss… finally meet true love?
“Want more?” Bian Yunchen shook the water bottle.
Xuan Yuchi: “No thanks.”
The road was visibly narrowing. Xuan Yuchi focused her attention.
A few minutes later, the road became extremely narrow. It seemed that if the vehicle swerved slightly, it would plunge down the cliff.
The fans in the live stream also noticed this.
[Oh wow, the difficulty is starting, everyone.] [I’m from Songshan County, hasn’t this road been closed?!] [The production team is playing too dangerously this time!]
