The Movie Queen's Beloved Crybaby Alpha - Chapter 50

The internet was buzzing with excitement, and the live stream room was flooded with netizens eager to see what was happening.

Meanwhile, Ye Qinglan and the others had just boarded a bus after leaving the airport. The host, observing the lively atmosphere in the live stream, smiled and said, “It seems everyone in the live stream is even more curious this time.”

Then she turned to Du Wenjun and asked, “Teacher Du, is there anything you’d like to share with everyone?”

Du Wenjun smiled and replied, “I’m very grateful for everyone’s concern and attention. Back when I was injured and left the film industry, it was Chaoyang who stood by me. That’s when we confirmed our relationship.”

“However, Chaoyang still had her own career at the time, and I didn’t want to hold her back because of me. She also wanted to make a name for herself in the film industry through her own abilities. After weighing all the options, we didn’t go public immediately,” Du Wenjun explained slowly.

“But now things are different. Chaoyang’s career is stable, and I’ve made a comeback. After going through so much together, our relationship remains strong. So we decided to take this opportunity on the show to announce it to everyone!” Du Wenjun said, smiling warmly at Xu Chaoyang.

Xu Chaoyang curved her lips slightly. “Being with Teacher Du is the greatest honor of my life.”

Upon hearing this, everyone else applauded and congratulated them.

“May Teacher Du and Sister Xu have a long and happy life together!”

The live stream chat instantly erupted with synchronized messages:

–

May Teacher Du and Sister Xu have a long and happy life together!

–

May Teacher Du and Sister Xu have a long and happy life together!

–

May Teacher Du and Sister Xu have a long and happy life together!

Du Wenjun beamed with joy. “Thank you all for your blessings!”

Wei Youning sighed with emotion. “What a pity we didn’t get to enjoy Teacher Du and Sister Xu’s wedding sweets.”

Xu Chaoyang laughed. “No worries. Once we arrive, I’ll go buy some sweets and distribute them to everyone.”

“Great!” everyone chimed in.

Watching the scene unfold, Ning Yunshu secretly hooked her little finger around Ye Qinglan’s. When Ye Qinglan looked over, Ning Yunshu gave her a pleading look.

Then she picked up her phone and sent Ye Qinglan a message.

[Ning Yunshu]: Sister, when can we be like Teacher Du and Sister Xu?

Ye Qinglan glanced discreetly at the live chat and saw that everyone was still discussing Du Wenjun and Xu Chaoyang, with no one paying attention to them. She quietly replied.

[Ye Qinglan]: So impatient, are we?

[Ning Yunshu]: Impatient, very impatient, extremely impatient! The kind of impatience where I’m hooked like a fish on your line.

Ye Qinglan struggled to suppress the upward curve of her lips as she looked at Ning Yunshu’s eager expression.

[Ye Qinglan]: You don’t think I’d agree to be with you so easily, do you?

Ning Yunshu immediately perked up.

[Ning Yunshu]: Then I’ll make sure to prepare thoroughly!

[Ye Qinglan]: That won’t do. At the very least, you’ll have to wait until I win another Best Actress award.

Ning Yunshu’s face instantly fell.

[Ye Qinglan]: Don’t you believe I can win another one?

[Ning Yunshu]: I believe you, of course I believe you!

Her response was lightning-fast.

Ye Qinglan gave a light hum before letting her off the hook.

By now, some viewers in the live chat had already noticed their subtle interactions.

-What are you two over there doing with all those secret glances? Can’t you just say whatever it is out loud for everyone to hear?

-Exactly! Are you treating us sisters like outsiders?

-Production team, I want to report something, two people are secretly playing on their phones and exchanging flirtatious looks!

Seeing this barrage of comments, everyone’s gaze involuntarily landed on Ye Qinglan and Ning Yunshu.

Ye Qinglan put away her phone, her expression calm. “What’s the matter?”

“What were you two discussing behind our backs?” Du Wenjun asked with a smile.

Ye Qinglan blinked innocently. “We weren’t discussing anything?”

“Really? We don’t believe you,” Wei Youning said, skepticism written all over her face.

Ye Qinglan grinned. “If you insist on knowing, we were discussing how big a wedding gift to give Teacher Du and Sister Xu.”

“Oh? How big?” Du Wenjun immediately perked up with interest.

“Ask her,” Ye Qinglan said, pointing to Ning Yunshu beside her.

Ning Yunshu smiled. “Naturally, it won’t be small.”

Du Wenjun laughed. “Well then, I’ll eagerly look forward to it.”

Xu Chaoyang also chuckled. “Since it’s a red envelope from President Ning, I suppose I’ll have a bit more pocket money.”

Du Wenjun shot her a glance. “What, is your allowance not enough?”

Xu Chaoyang instantly became alert. “No, no, it’s enough!”

-Oh no, this top-tier Alpha might also be the one with the lowest status at home.

-So out of the two Alphas on the show, both have lower family standings, huh?

-What do you call this? True top-tier Alphas are always the ones who spoil their partners.

-My two divine CPs, so good to ship!

The bus drove all the way to the seaside homestay they had booked. Right in front of the homestay was a stretch of sandy beach, with the azure sea rolling small waves in the distance. Seagulls circled overhead under the clear sky, creating a peaceful and beautiful scene.

As soon as they stepped off the bus, a salty sea breeze greeted them. Wei Youning stretched lazily.

“This place is so relaxing!”

“Absolutely! With this setting, we might even be able to wake up early and try some beachcombing,” Jiang Can said with a laugh.

Xu Youyou immediately brightened at the mention. “Beachcombing? Teacher Jiang, you mean like digging for razor clams and collecting clams like in those online videos?”

Jiang Can nodded. “Yes, early morning is the best time for it.”

“Yay! Then I’ll wake up early!” Xu Youyou declared excitedly.

Wei Youning poured cold water on her enthusiasm. “You, who can’t wait to sleep in every day, do you really think you can get up?”

Xu Youyou stood firm. “I can! I definitely can!”

Wei Youning drawled, “And if you can’t?”

Xu Youyou hesitated, then declared, “Then… then I’ll give you all my allowance next month!”

Wei Youning narrowed her eyes. “Deal. No take-backs?”

“No take-backs! Whoever goes back on their word is a dog!” Xu Youyou quickly vowed.

“Alright, let’s go put our luggage away first?” Ye Qinglan suggested with a smile. “The sun’s pretty harsh right now. Let’s go inside and apply some sunscreen so we don’t get burned.”

“Sure.”

This homestay’s accommodations were all on the second floor. Everyone picked their rooms and went in to drop off their luggage and change.

The seaside was too sunny, and with afternoon activities still uncertain, Ye Qinglan changed into a tank top and denim shorts, planning to throw on a sun jacket over them for mobility.

Ning Yunshu was dressed in a T-shirt and sports shorts.

Her slender legs and arms, subtly defined with muscle lines, made Ye Qingran unable to resist the urge to touch them.

Before she knew it, her hand had already reached out.

The smooth skin and firm muscles made Ye Qingran reluctant to let go.

Ning Yunshu smiled at her. “Sister, if you keep touching me, I’ll have to start charging.”

Ye Qingran quickly withdrew her hand. “Then forget it, I can’t afford it.”

Ning Yunshu blinked, her smile turning mischievous.

“Want a loan service?”

“No.” Ye Qingran shot her a glare and grabbed the sunscreen nearby, starting to apply it.

“Hurry up and put on sunscreen.”

Fortunately, since they had to change clothes, the cameras in the room had already been turned off. Otherwise, if netizens heard this conversation, it would’ve caused another uproar.

After applying sunscreen, the two went downstairs, where the others were gradually gathering. Seeing everyone assembled, the host smiled and said, “Is everyone ready?”

“Yeah, yeah! Hurry up and tell us what we’re doing today!” Wei Youning urged with a laugh.

The host didn’t keep them in suspense. “For this episode, we’ve added a new rule. Each team’s expenses during the show will be determined by a lottery draw. The starting funds for each team will range randomly between 50 and 100. Whatever amount you draw is what you’ll have to work with. If you run out, you’ll have to earn more through activities in the next day and a half to replenish your living expenses.”

“So, our initial funds depend entirely on luck, and if we want more, we’ll have to earn it through activities?” Ning Yunshu asked.

“Exactly. And based on last episode’s performance, Teacher Ye and CEO Ning will automatically receive 100 as their starting funds,” the host said with a smile.

Ye Qingran immediately sighed in relief. “Thank goodness. With my terrible luck, I’d have had to channel my boss’s energy otherwise.”

Du Wenyun burst out laughing. “Oh right, CEO Xiao is famously known in the industry for her ridiculously good luck.”

“Exactly. Her luck is insane. If it were up to me to draw, I’d have no choice but to pray to her,” Ye Qingran said, clasping her hands together in mock worship.

Hearing Ye Qingran’s words, netizens in the livestream couldn’t resist teasing.

-Now the whole internet knows CEO Xiao is a lucky charm.

-Got it. From now on, I’ll worship CEO Xiao and pray for success.

-Off to buy CEO Xiao’s merch and enshrine it.

-CEO Xiao wakes up one day to find she’s been deified.

Back in the show, Du Wenyun looked at the host. “So the rest of us have to rely on our own luck?”

“That’s right,” the host said, pulling out a box and presenting it to the group.

“Each team, send one representative to draw.”

Du Wenyun immediately patted Xu Zhaoyang. “Go. What you eat today depends entirely on you.”

Xu Zhaoyang sighed and stepped forward.

“I’ll do it. I don’t trust Youyou’s luck,” Wei Youning declared, not giving Xu Youyou a chance.

“Wow! Cousin, how could you say that? You’ve broken my heart!” Xu Youyou clutched her chest dramatically.

Wei Youning shot her a look. “I hope you’re aware of your own abysmal luck when it comes to games.”

Xu Youyou’s lips twitched. “Please, just stop.”

Jiang Can also chuckled. “Then I’ll be the one to draw for our team.”

The three took turns drawing their lots.

Xu Chaoyang had decent luck, drawing an eighty. When he saw the number, he heaved a huge sigh of relief.

“Not bad, not bad.”

Jiang Can drew a ninety, which was quite impressive.

Wei Youning silently prayed for a long time before opening his slip of paper. When he saw the number, his vision darkened repeatedly.

“How is this only fifty?!”
