Why Did the Top Alpha Suddenly Stop Acting Out? - Chapter 27

One person started the teasing, and soon the whole crowd joined in.

“Come on, come on!”

Yi Qian raised an eyebrow and glanced at Ye Shuyi, who was sitting nearby. The latter crossed her arms in front of her chest before promptly sticking the straw of her water bottle into her mouth.

Yi Qian had actually been looking forward to it, but seeing the other’s gesture, she raised a hand to quiet the crowd and tactfully declined on her behalf. “Alright, everyone, let’s not push it. She’s already sung for a long time, let her rest a bit.”

Though some fans looked a little disappointed, they stopped their teasing.

The melodious singing drifted over the square as the audience below spontaneously joined hands, swaying and cheering in unison.

When the song ended, many fans rushed forward to offer money, but Yi Qian quickly retrieved the QR code and donation box. She had already received plenty of contributions while singing today’s earnings had far exceeded her expectations.

Initially, Ye Shuyi had negotiated a 60-40 split with the band, with their side taking the larger share. After settling up, they found they’d made over four thousand today.

Performance after performance passed, and before they knew it, the sky was painted with a breathtaking sunset, its hues stretching across the horizon.

Even after the show ended, the fans lingered.

After confirming with the band, Yi Qian picked up the microphone and announced, “That’s all for today, everyone! Feel free to go enjoy the amusement park rides. My appearance was just a happy accident, don’t forget the real reason you came here. Alright, go on and have fun!”

Reluctantly, most of the crowd dispersed, though a few remained, watching from a distance without approaching.

After saying goodbye to the band, Yi Qian stuffed all the day’s earnings into the pouch tied around Ye Shuyi’s waist.

Ye Shuyi frowned. “What are you doing?”

Yi Qian grinned. “Keeping it safe with you, like always.”

Ye Shuyi wanted to say that things were different now their relationship wasn’t what it used to be, and she no longer had the right to hold onto her things. But seeing the glimmer in Yi Qian’s eyes, she couldn’t bring herself to say it.

“Aaaah, AAAAAH!!!”

As they passed the roller coaster, the screams of riders pierced the air. Yi Qian’s eyes instantly lit up. “How about we go on the roller coaster?”

“…” Ye Shuyi avoided her gaze. “We’re here to work, not play.”

“But the work’s done, the money’s made, and the sun’s setting time to relax.” Yi Qian leaned in, teasing. “You’re not scared, are you?”

Ye Shuyi shot her a look, feigning composure. “Of course not.” She tried reasoning with her. “We’re filming right now, we can’t just do whatever we want.”

Yi Qian thought for a moment before turning to a staff member. “Someone call the director and ask.”

The staffer was about to refuse outright, but under Yi Qian’s death glare, they immediately shut their mouth and scurried off to make the call.

Yi Qian pressed her face close to the camera, swaying back and forth while muttering, “No way, no one would actually refuse his money even if they didn’t need it, right?”

Director Lu: “……”

Yi Qian’s eyes curved like peach blossoms as she spoke, her thin lips quirking slightly. But Director Lu could clearly see the threat in her gaze through the monitor.

He hurriedly agreed: “You can go, just be careful. And you can only do this one attraction, come back immediately after.”

Upon hearing the staff relay this message, Yi Qian raised an eyebrow at the camera as if to say: You know what’s good for you.

Director Lu: “……” Turns out every participant in this show is a damn diva.

Yi Qian walked up to Ye Shuyi, her tone lilting: “Let’s go. Since Director Lu is being so reasonable, we shouldn’t waste his kindness.”

Ye Shuyi glanced at the camera: Since when is refusing generosity illegal?

But before she could formulate a rejection, Yi Qian grabbed her wrist and pulled her toward the amusement park’s changing room. “Come on, let’s get out of these bulky clothes first.”

In the changing room, Yi Qian checked her phone before walking to a locker. With two beeps, a locker door swung open. She retrieved two bags, handing one to Ye Shuyi. “You’re probably soaked through too. Change, it’s got everything you need.”

Watching this on the monitor, Director Lu gritted his teeth: “This brat planned this. She absolutely planned this.”

On screen, Ye Shuyi took the bag and peered inside to find a complete set of clothes.

“If you’re uncomfortable, you can shower here too. No rush.”

“No need.” Ye Shuyi tossed the reply before disappearing into the innermost changing stall.

Yi Qian casually took a seat, intending to wait until the other woman finished. But soon, multiple footsteps approached the entrance sounding like a sizable group entering.

She quickly moved to Ye Shuyi’s stall and knocked. “I’m coming in.”

Without waiting for a response, she pushed inside just as the changing room door opened, revealing a chattering group of girls.

Yi Qian’s gaze landed on the half-dressed woman before her clothes clutched to her chest, porcelain shoulders exposed, skin so delicate it looked like it would bruise at the slightest touch. Though Yi Qian had warned her, Ye Shuyi hadn’t expected her to barge in so boldly.

Immediately, Ye Shuyi covered Yi Qian’s eyes with one hand, blocking that shameless stare as she pinned her against the wall. Her icy whisper ghosted over Yi Qian’s lips: “You’d better have a damn good reason for invading my space.”

The crisp, cool fragrance of Ye Shuyi’s perfume enveloped them. Yi Qian’s lips pressed together, her throat bobbing as she murmured, “There’s a crowd coming in with only five stalls. If I stayed out there too long someone might recognize my voice if they questioned me. Good enough reason?”

Before Ye Shuyi could respond, commotion erupted outside.

“Yuanyuan, what’s wrong?”

Frantic footsteps. A faint, breathy voice drifted in: “So hot!”

Someone quickly realized: “Yuanyuan’s going into pre-heat! Does anyone have suppressants?”

Heat cycle!

Ye Shuyi looked down at the alpha beneath her and swiftly covered their mouth and nose.

“My friend has some, but she hasn’t arrived yet.”

“Please call your friend and ask her to come quickly. Otherwise, once the pheromones spread outside with so many people around, the consequences will be disastrous.”

“But she’s still quite far from here.”

A calm voice interjected, “I saw an emergency aid station nearby when I arrived. They should have suppressants there. I’ll be right back.”

Soon, the sound of a door opening and closing came from outside.

The girl who had spoken first muttered under her breath, “Damn it, this changing room doesn’t have an isolation space for A/O special periods.”

The scent of vanilla pheromones quickly filled the changing room, and even Ye Shuyi, in the innermost stall, soon caught the sweet fragrance in the air. The influence of pheromones between alphas and omegas couldn’t be avoided simply by blocking the nose and mouth, it only delayed the inevitable.

She had already smelled the vanilla pheromones, so there was no way the body in front of her hadn’t sensed it. She could feel Yi Qian’s body growing hotter or rather, more aroused.

Lowering the hand that had been covering Yi Qian’s eyes, as expected, the other’s gaze had grown hazy, their eyes bloodshot, like a beast on the verge of losing control, consumed by desire.

As if barely holding back, Ye Shuyi was suddenly yanked into a tight embrace, her face pressed against the other’s neck as they inhaled her scent greedily.

Then, she felt sharp teeth press against her scent gland. Just a little more force from the nearly feral alpha, and that thin layer of skin would be pierced, releasing the familiar pheromones that could temporarily soothe them.

But no, if that happened, they’d both lose control.

Ye Shuyi tilted her body slightly to evade the teeth, then cupped Yi Qian’s face without hesitation and kissed them.

“Ah Qian~ Look at me. Don’t think about anything else, be good~”

Her usually cool voice was now laced with desire, sweet and coaxing.

Soon, the passive alpha took over, gripping the omega’s waist and deepening the kiss with fervor.

“The suppressants are here!”

“Hurry, hurry!”

After a moment, a concerned voice asked, “Yuan Yuan, how do you feel now?”

“Much better.”

The vanilla scent in the air gradually faded. Someone entered the neighboring changing stall, quickly left, and then the door closed again.

Knock knock!

“Hello? Is anyone in there?”

The sudden knocking jolted Ye Shuyi’s last shred of rationality back into place. She pushed Yi Qian away, covering their mouth, and cleared her throat before answering, “Yes, someone’s here.”

“How much longer will you be? There are a lot of people waiting outside,” the girl outside politely reminded her.

Ye Shuyi shot a glare at the restless alpha before calmly replying, “I’m dealing with something difficult. It might take a while. Please use another changing room.”

There was a brief silence outside before the voice returned, “Is it an inner clasp or a zipper that needs fixing? Do you need help?”

“No, thank you.”

The people inside waited quietly for a moment, but no more sounds came from outside the door.

Soon, the rustling noises beyond the door grew fewer and fewer.

Confirming that the changing room was empty, Ye Shuyi released Yi Qian. Just as she pulled her clothes on, a pair of restless hands reappeared around her waist. Yi Qian embraced her, lazily resting her head against her shoulder as if acting coquettish. “I still feel a little warm, and my thoughts are still a bit muddled. Let me lean on you for a while.”

Ye Shuyi lifted her hand and pinched Yi Qian’s chin, raising an eyebrow at the other’s flawless acting. “Warm, huh?”

Yi Qian nodded.

“Thoughts muddled, huh?”

Another nod.

Ye Shuyi smirked. “Alright, I’ll help you cool down and clear your head right now.”

Yet another nod.
