The Omega's Vow: Never Marry a Mama's Boy Alpha - Chapter 29

The new bodyguard’s surname was Li named Xiaomeng, a very cute name that sounded like it belonged to a soft, gentle girl.

However, her actual appearance was completely at odds with her name, to the point of being poles apart.

Standing at an impressive height of 1.8 meters, she towered above others. Her robust muscles could rival those of a high-level male alpha. Dressed in a suit and wearing sunglasses, she stood there like a sharp, unsheathed sword cold and formidable. With such an imposing physique, no one would have guessed she was a female beta.

Wen Yan initially found it hard to believe as well. Shouldn’t someone like her be an alpha?

Li Xiaomeng was a woman of few words but decisive actions. Her first instinct was to take off her clothes to prove her beta identity to her new employer.

Just as she started unbuckling her belt, Wen Yan hurriedly stopped her.

What was she doing? Acting like a hooligan?!

Mineral water kept flowing from the bottle’s mouth, and Wen Xiu was so shocked her jaw dropped, her young mind utterly bewildered.

Wen Yan helplessly rubbed her forehead, thinking that while this bodyguard seemed highly reliable, her brain might not be the sharpest.

A one-track mind.

Perhaps all her nutrients had gone into growing taller.

But it had to be said, with such a tall and imposing bodyguard standing behind her and a delicate, elegant assistant bustling around nearby, Wen Yan still an 18th-tier actress unconsciously elevated her presence and aura by several notches, almost on par with Tang Mi, the female lead in the Martial Emperor crew and one of the hottest “Four Rising Stars.”

Many crew members secretly eyed this stunning beauty with such an impressive aura, whom they had rarely seen before, even speculating whether she was some wealthy heiress entering the industry for fun.

Later, when they learned that Wen Yan was playing the role of Rong’er, those bold gazes quickly receded. The entertainment circle is small, and news spreads at lightning speed. Zuo Huan’s attempt to climb into the boss’s bed, only to be caught and blacklisted by the boss’s wife, was already common knowledge. The role of Rong’er, which she had fought tooth and nail to secure and which could have made her an overnight star, was returned untouched, a classic case of drawing water with a bamboo basket, all effort in vain.

As for Wen Yan, both the victim and beneficiary in this incident, claiming she was entirely innocent would hardly convince the gossip-loving public. Instead, many believed she had played a part in Zuo Huan’s downfall.

Thus, all the crew members and artists aware of the incident treated Wen Yan with a certain distance and formality.

Except for the “Thousand-Faced Scholar,” Tang Mi.

Tang Mi had also been nurtured by Jin Yin. She debuted at sixteen in a historical romance idol drama, playing a fair-skinned, refined scholar elegant, handsome, and scholarly, holding a white jade fan. Her beauty stunned the entire internet, and headlines were filled with her name and stills from the show. After her contract expired, she established her own studio and ventured out on her own. Leveraging her accumulated connections and exceptional acting skills, she secured the top spot among the Four Rising Stars in the fiercely competitive film and television industry. She boasts a massive fanbase, not to mention her wildly enthusiastic CP fans.

Three years ago, she co-starred with another rising star, Song Yu, in a highly popular ABO adaptation, a heart-wrenching, epic love story. The drama broke viewership records that summer and earned the two an enormous number of CP fans, including many original book fans.

From then on, both of them rose to become A-list actresses, occasionally interacting on Weibo to delight their CP fans.

Many gossip accounts even speculated that the two were genuinely dating, especially since their secondary genders were compatible. Tang Mi was a sunny and outgoing alpha, while Song Yu was a gentle and elegant omega.

This provided ample creative space for fanfiction, with tropes like “falling in love on set,” “heat cycle friends-with-benefits,” and “forced marking” running rampant, leaving readers dazzled by the variety.

Wen Yan, after reading a few lines, realized the unscrupulous authors had already begun describing explicit content. She instantly closed the webpage and made sure to clear her browsing history.

She had only wanted to learn more about this senior actress, but all that popped up were erotic stories!

To make matters worse, the protagonist of those stories was standing not far away from her. Frankly, it was a bit awkward.

The female lead of those stories no, Tang Mi had already changed into an intricate costume, her long hair styled up in an ancient fashion. With a serene gaze, she already embodied half the aura of Emperor Wu.

Tang Mi was a skilled actress who immersed herself in roles quickly, always portraying her characters flawlessly without ever giving the audience a sense of dissonance. Even when playing delicate, alluring omegas, she executed it effortlessly.

This was why she was known as the “Thousand-Faced Scholar.”

However, overall, Tang Mi’s features leaned toward sharp and defined, with distinct facial contours and slender, expressive eyes. As Wen Yan observed her, she suddenly felt a moment of daze, thinking Tang Mi bore a resemblance to Director Lin.

But upon closer inspection, she decided they didn’t look alike after all. Tang Mi loved to smile, with a dimple just above the corner of her mouth. When she grinned, she revealed neat, white teeth radiant and beautiful. Her smile was highly infectious, making anyone who saw it relax and unconsciously curve their lips.

Director Lin, on the other hand, rarely showed emotion on her face. Her exquisitely beautiful features remained perpetually calm and still, like a model on a runway stunning, yet devoid of vitality.

Wen Yan’s thoughts drifted further and further, completely unaware that Tang Mi was already approaching her, lost in her own world.

But precisely because of this, whenever Director Lin smiled even slightly even if it was just a faint upturn of her lips Wen Yan would feel utterly overwhelmed.

She would instinctively avert her gaze, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

Director Lin’s subtle smile was truly captivating.

Like the moon on a midsummer night, reflected on the surface of a lake something you could admire from afar but never hold in your hands.

That elusive, intangible sense of distance that was impossible to shake off.

“What are you thinking about?”

The sudden voice snapped Wen Yan out of her reverie. She looked up, her pupils contracting slightly, it was Tang Mi.

The two had exchanged words during the pre-filming gathering, but that was the extent of their interaction. Wen Yan believed their relationship wasn’t close enough for a popular actress like Tang Mi to approach her so casually.

Moreover, Tang Mi had affectionately omitted formalities, as if addressing a long-time friend.

The proximity felt a bit too close. Wen Yan leaned back slightly and replied, “Nothing.”

“Did you need something, Teacher Tang?”

Many eyes were already turning in their direction. Wen Yan, who had hoped to keep a low profile, found her plans thoroughly disrupted by Tang Mi’s presence.

The Emperor Wu set was crowded and full of gossip. Unlike on the Rivalry set, where she had Director Lin’s support, the slightest misstep here could easily lead to offending someone.

Wen Yan tried her best to avoid causing any trouble for Sister Jin Yin.

“No need to call me Teacher Tang. I’m only three years older than you calling me that makes me sound old.”

“Just call me by my name.”

Wen Yan shook her head. “But you’re my senior.”

With a debut at sixteen and a ten-year career, it was only right to address her respectfully as “teacher.”

Tang Mi waved it off casually. “I just started working early, it’s nothing special.”

“Aren’t we about the same age anyway? Having such a beauty call me ‘teacher’.”

“It just feels awkward.”

Unconsciously, she had been flattered.

Wen Yan looked into those smiling eyes and felt it might be impolite to refuse further, so she said,

“Alright, Tang Mi.”

But as soon as she said it, something felt off, so she quickly changed the subject.

“Is there something you needed?”

Tang Mi smiled, revealing a small canine tooth at the corner of her mouth. Paired with her dimples, it made her look both stunning and adorable, with a rare touch of playfulness.

“Interested in doing a CP promotion?”
