Chapter 21: The Battleground of Three A's - Yan Quan, the Time Management Master in a 1v3 Situation...
Yan Quan's fingers were very slender, with a light blue vein on the back of his hand. Even the sound of his knuckles rubbing against the screen was very pleasant—"da da da..." like playing the piano.
The soft light from the communicator screen reflected off Yan Quan's eyelashes, creating a shimmering effect and adding a touch of silver to her profile.
[On a side note, Yan Quan's hands are really beautiful.]
[Stunningly beautiful face, I'm taking screenshots like crazy!]
[That speed... Quanbao types so fast! Praise!]
You guys are really something else, praising everything about him.
Guess how many ex-boyfriends she dated to develop this typing speed?
I don't care, Quanbao is amazing!
"Ding-dong—" The communicator rang twice in succession.
Murong Yuan: Don't try to escape me. I can give you the whole world, but you can only be mine.
Yan Quan replied: Okay
Fu Duannian: Sunrise, water lilies, cathedral... You are the dancer in my dreams.
Yan Quan replied: Okay
[Oh my god, I just copied and pasted this into a mass mailing (shocking)]
I knew it... Yan Haiwang is truly ruthless and heartless.
[My darling, you're so sweet and soft, but you're such a jerk.]
Damn, this man is awful, but how can he be so charming? (Tears streaming down his face)
I didn't get it, my CP ended badly, sob sob.
I thought it was a case of one person's sincerity being reciprocated, but it turns out to be a favor bestowed upon everyone equally (tears welling up).
I'm more curious about how the other Alphas who received the message at the same time felt...a crazy, amused person.
As for the Alphas' mood... for now, it's pretty good.
Shan Haotian and Murong Yuan were both in the living room of the lounge area when their communicators rang one after the other, several tens of seconds apart.
"Beep!" Shan Haotian's communicator rang first.
The muscles in his arms, which had been taut from lifting the dumbbells, suddenly relaxed, and the 40-kilogram steel block crashed to the ground with a "bang." Shan Haotian leaped over the horizontal axis and excitedly ran to the coffee table next to him to grab his communicator.
Murong Yuan, his face grim, was looking at the financial statements when he sensed Shan Haotian's exaggerated reaction. He snorted coldly, "You're making a fuss over nothing."
Before Shan Haotian could even touch his communicator, another "beep!" rang out in the room—this time it was Murong Yuan.
Murong Yuan's mood changed faster than flipping through a book; his expression instantly shifted from sunny to cloudy. He grinned, showing his large teeth, and pulled out a communicator from his suit jacket.
When checking the information, the two rivals were both wary of each other, and each turned slightly to the side, their backs to the other.
This scene resembles a breakup scene from a romantic movie.
The chat background lock screen uses the program's default promotional image, featuring a heart-shaped logo that reads "Signal of True Love 2," with Yan Quan's chibi-style figure in the center.
As soon as Shan Haotian and Murong Yuan turned on the camera, the first thing they saw was Yan Quan's chibi-style avatar, and the pink default chat box color itself had an ambiguous feel to it.
Yan Quan: Okay
Just one word. Both Shan Haotian and Murong Yuan were overjoyed upon reading it, their lips curving into a smile, seemingly more difficult to control than an AK.
"I'm going upstairs first..." Shan Haotian, being young and unable to hide his feelings, got up to leave. He was thinking about quickly taking a shower and getting ready for his date that afternoon.
"Ahem... well..." With his straightforward nature and lack of guile, Shan Haotian deliberately turned his head as he went up the stairs, giving Murong Yuan a somewhat smug smile:
What message did you receive?
Dan Haotian knew that Murong Yuan had definitely been rejected by Yan Quan, and as the "victor," he couldn't help but want to show off.
Having experienced the ways of the world, Murong Yuan was more calculating. He suppressed the smile that appeared on his lips and said indifferently, "I didn't receive anything, just a promotional text message from the bank."
"Oh... then I won't bother you anymore." As Shan Haotian said this, a hint of sympathy appeared on his face: "You should focus on your work."
Because you have nothing else to do besides work.
"Heh...get back to work." Murong Yuan watched Shan Haotian's retreating figure, a little amused.
You're the one who needs to work hard, you greenhorn who hasn't been through the harsh realities of life. Later, when you're "losing both your career and love life," you'll be crying.
On one side, a fierce battle unfolds like an undercover operation, while on the other, Fu Duannian's story is a tranquil and artistic tale.
Acrylic paint creates layers upon layers of color, beautiful and dreamlike... Fu Duannian is painting a picture. The person in the painting is Yan Quan.
Yan Quan appeared in his dream last night.
Before participating in this dating reality show, Fu Duannian was trapped in a vortex of "inspiration depletion." No matter how he composed, drafted, or redrawn, he was unable to depict the vision in his mind.
But Yan Quan's appearance was like the Renaissance in the Middle Ages. The shackles of freedom and the soul were suddenly broken, and inspiration and creative desire exploded.
With aloof and cold eyes, and a charming smile... Fu Duannian thought of Yan Quan's appearance, and his brushstrokes became deeper and deeper on the paper, as if he had plunged headlong into the painting.
But just moments later, the immersive art creation abruptly ended with a "beep!" sound. Fu Duannian received a message from Yan Quanfa.
Yan Quan: Okay
"Hahaha..." Fu Duannian put down his paintbrush, leaned on the easel beside him, and laughed softly and unrestrainedly: "Yan Quan, Yan Quan... you actually agreed."
Juliet, Lolita, and Karenina... Aphrodite and Prometheus, the serpent that tempted Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruit.
………
It was a scorching midday sun, and the intense heat made the three Alphas' excitement burn even hotter than the 30-degree Celsius heat.
In dating reality shows, it's a common practice to give flowers when going on a date.
Shan Haotian held a bouquet of golden sunflowers, while Murong Yuan simply and directly prepared a large bunch of red roses. Unfortunately, the two bumped into each other again as they were leaving.
Murong Yuan first scrutinized Shan Haotian's stylishly coordinated hoodie and pants with a critical eye, "You...are you going out now?"
Not to be outdone, Shan Haotian returned the gaze: "You're going out too?"
Murong Yuan straightened his shirt collar: "I'm going to meet a client."
"I..." Shan Haotian grabbed his hair, which he had carefully styled with hairspray, "I'm going out for a private lesson."
"Then..." The two looked at each other, their suspicious eyes sweeping over each other's hands: "And what's with this flower?"
"It's for the students." Shan Haotian was slightly embarrassed.
"I..." Murong Yuan appeared serious on the surface, but felt a little uneasy inside: "It's for a client."
"Oh." After finding out the details, both of their suspicions subsided. They both let out a muffled groan: "Well then, goodbye."
Both of them thought they had won, so they're hiding their true intentions and deceiving both sides.
[Does Yan Quan know that he's both a student and a customer? Hahaha, that's hilarious!]
The thought of those two meeting up later makes me laugh.
If you two were to check Gaode Maps, you would be surprised to find that your destinations are actually the same.
[Haha, I laughed so hard I smashed the bed frame! Boss, can you at least give me a new bed frame?]
Fu Duannian left ten minutes after the two went out, holding a pure white lisianthus in his hands, dressed impeccably and with an elegant demeanor.
However, netizens seemed to completely ignore Fu Duannian's carefully dressed outfit, focusing entirely on watching the spectacle.
Please drive faster; you might still be able to catch up with those two cars in front.
You absolutely must meet up with those two people up ahead!
Seeing him walking so leisurely, I was getting anxious for him, afraid he'd miss his date.
[Seconded] A battleground where all three A-level champions are present is much more interesting; it just doesn't feel right without any one of them.
The "3A Shura Field" reflects the sentiments of the vast majority of netizens, and the traffic in the capital city also strictly adheres to the "mass line," resulting in a very accommodating traffic jam.
So when the three Alphas hurriedly got out of the car and rushed to the beach arranged by the production team, they realized that something was wrong.
The first to notice something was wrong was Shan Haotian. Because he was young and had good stamina, he rushed to the front and quickly sensed that someone was chasing him relentlessly from behind.
Huh? Wait a minute, black suit, slicked-back hair, chiseled face... Shan Haotian turned around and looked: Isn't this Murong Yuan who's going to meet a client?
White tank top, cargo pants, crossbody bag... Murong Yuan got angry when he saw Shan Haotian's taut muscles: "You're here for private lessons?"
"Damn it!" Shan Hao shouted angrily, grabbing his hair. "Yan Quan invited me here!!!"
"It was Yan Quan who invited me here."
Dan Haotian and Murong Yuan spoke in unison, their loud male voices echoing across the entire beach, their imposing presence causing the waves on the sea to tremble.
The words had barely left their lips when both of them froze in surprise, exchanging bewildered glances: "What did you just say...?"
"Who asked you out?"
The atmosphere became awkward and frozen, when suddenly another voice rang out: "What are you doing here?"
Fu Duannian's voice was no longer as steady as before, but carried a hint of doubt and anxiety: "It's Yan Quan."
"Yan Quan invited me here."
Murong Yuan and Shan Haotian, already disheveled from the beach breeze, were instantly shocked: "...You too?!"
[You too?! Hahaha, look at their expressions!]
[The three A's gather together, what a thrilling battleground!]
There's a certain "caught in the act" charm to it (laughs while covering mouth)
[If you're not dead, the three of you can share one date and take turns (laughs)]
[I would call this the most dramatic "ghost scene" of the year]
[Let's fight! Let's fight! (The entertainer)]
Why don't you guys get together and play Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game)...?
"Let me see your communicators!" Murong Yuan reacted first, rushing to grab the other two's communicators: "Did Yan Quan send you a message?"
The communicator screen was glaring, making it difficult to see clearly under the scorching sun. Murong Yuan had to strain his eyes for a while before he could vaguely make out the small text message font.
"Hehe..." Murong Yuan finished reading with difficulty, and after a long while, a few dry breaths escaped from his throat:
"Yan Quan, you've sent it to everyone."
"They're all saying the same thing. They're not even willing to make a perfunctory change..."
This conclusion was delivered with resounding force, causing all three Alphas to stiffen abruptly and freeze in place.
After staring at each other for a long time, the three Alphas saw the same bewilderment, embarrassment, and... anger on each other's faces.
Alpha is a species with a strong sense of possessiveness, territoriality, and even mental fastidiousness.
Let alone dating, extreme individuals cannot even accept their omega being in the same space as someone else.
Yan Quan's actions were tantamount to branding the Alphas' lungs with a hot iron... He acted recklessly and without fear.
“I think…” The three Alphas, their faces grim, struggled to suppress their provocative emotions, and spoke in unison once more:
"We should go find Yan Quan and demand an explanation."
This kind of operation, involving three A's at once, is probably the first of its kind on the entire internet (shocking)!
Actually, Yan Quan's kind of consistent scumbag behavior is unprecedented in a dating reality show that focuses on 1v1 pure love.
These three Alphas look like they're about to turn green with anger.
I didn't realize it before, but now I truly admire her. Yan Quan is basically pushing the boundaries of what A can tolerate.
I think I understand Yan Quan's fans now. This unbridled sense of power and villainy is really satisfying!
Now I'm even more curious about how Yan Quan is going to clean up this mess.
"Never mind, our King Yan has extraordinary abilities."
"1V3 Time Management Master", "Multi-person Sports Battleground", "Conjugate Dating Partner"... Yan Quan's actions were groundbreaking and instantly ignited the show's popularity.
They got the trending topics, but this tactic was incredibly damaging; the Alpha goodwill that Yan Quan had built up is now practically on the verge of collapse...
Everyone's watching the spectacle. How will our incredibly cunning "King of Love" quell the Alphas' anger?
