Chapter 6 Two A's Fight for One O (Part 1) This is the Shura who started fighting...
Yan Quan's logic for choosing a room was simple: first, he liked it; second, he liked it; and finally, he liked it.
He's destined to be a lonely, widowed man in the finale, and netizens probably think his behavior is selfish, petty, immodest, and lacks manners...
It would be even better if people online harassed and condemned the production team because they "disliked him," forcing the production team to stop recording him midway.
In this way, not only will she receive the appearance fee, but she can also sue the production team to claim compensation for emotional distress, and she no longer needs to worry about attracting "unclean things" by frequently appearing in the public eye.
But Yan Quan's plan clearly failed.
There's no other reason than that times have changed, and young people in the 21st century no longer believe in the PUA tactics of "suffering is a blessing".
Therefore, this series of actions did not provoke "one-sided criticism" from netizens, but instead sparked a major discussion about the standard of "selfishness".
"You just opened your mouth so sweetly?! Aren't you going to be a little more polite?"
[A bit brainless, low-level thinking]
I feel like I was being a little selfish...
What does it mean to have a broad perspective? Does being outwardly strong equate to having a broad perspective?
He did what I've always wanted to do; I hate that kind of pretentious, back-and-forth politeness.
I agree; I think loving yourself is the most magnanimous quality.
"I ordered it. This isn't like giving up your seat to an elderly lady on a bus. Why can't I stand up for my own interests?"
"They said they were fine with whichever room they wanted, so let them have it. If they want to be polite, they can stay in a smaller room."
No one else dared to speak... but his words broke the silence.
[The same thing happened last season; everyone was trying to appear dignified by offering rooms, and in the end, the Omega who ended up in a single room felt guilty and that made everyone unhappy.]
[Agreed. It's good to put things out in the open and compete openly.]
[O Three, you are this (thumbs up)]
I'm all rosy-cheeked now, I'm practically a queen!
Even after Yan Quan pushed his suitcase all the way to the single room floor, everyone was still stunned.
The pulley that had been pushing forward stopped, and Yan Quan opened her eyelids slightly with a hint of helplessness. "Really, isn't there anyone else who wants this room?"
Yan Quan turned around and cleared his throat. "Single rooms are obviously better than double rooms, and everyone will definitely have their own preferences. We can negotiate a way that everyone can accept to decide who will stay."
“Good competition is not shameful; it is a shortcut to improving collective efficiency.”
Such a clear-headed statement, absolutely queen-like.
[That's how things should be said clearly and openly.]
[If only O2, who had a single room last season, was this insightful. He was so internally conflicted that he quit halfway through.]
Yan Quan's words were resounding, but the crowd exchanged hesitant glances. At that moment, a dazzling silver arc of light stepped out from among them.
"Yan Quan." Ji Yao tossed her hair, completely disregarding her innocent and pitiful persona: "I also want to stay in this room."
Her jet-black, curled false eyelashes turned towards Yan Quan: "Tell me, what should we compete in?"
I knew it, hahaha, O couldn't hide it at all.
[I'm sure I wasn't the only one who saw Ji Yao's initial outstretched and then quickly retracted leg.]
[Sisters, that hurts! The young lady is probably regretting it now; otherwise, this room would have been his long ago.]
"Yan Quan, I'll teach you a trick. You can compare your name with Ji Yao's by saying the names of the main characters in 'Crime and Punishment,' and he definitely won't know them."
[The lady in front, you'll connect this to the previous text.]
Although Ji Yao is illiterate, he knows how to join in the conversation!
[You're not allowed to say that about our Yaobao! He hasn't even read many books, sob sob sob]
[Haha, I'm dying of laughter from the comments! Ji Yao's illiterate persona remains intact.]
Seeing Ji Yao stop first, Yan Quan raised his eyebrows slightly, his lips curving into a gentle smile.
"What should we compete in... Let me think."
With a quick glance, Yan Quan's clear eyes flashed, and a sly smile appeared in them. "Rock, paper, scissors, shall we play?"
"Let's compete." Ji Yao was no longer afraid.
Uh, what an old game...
This is what it means for classics to endure.
Is it because Ji Yao's "idiot" persona is too deeply ingrained? I feel like Ji Yao is destined to lose.
As expected, the comments section jumped to predict the future, and Ji Yao had barely finished agreeing when he instantly produced a "paper" symbol.
Then it was spectacularly crushed by Yan Quan's "scissors".
"...Hmm..." Ji Yao realized she had lost, her lips twitched slightly, and she looked somewhat discouraged: "Alright then—"
Before the last word had even finished, Yan Quan chuckled softly and gently touched Ji Yao's shoulder, his amorous peach blossom eyes curving into shimmering light.
"Ji Yao, we'll go for best two out of three, okay?"
[Ugh, can someone please understand Yan Quan's smile?]
A bit nonchalant, and even a little indulgent?
[Vision: Some very skilled Alpha Aquamans]
"I totally get it! Yan Quan is a hooker!"
[To be honest, I'm an Omega, and you hooked me.]
I'm totally smitten by Yan Quan!
The comments from netizens were just joking around; only Ji Yao's sexual orientation was truly "in danger."
He was genuinely charmed by Yan Quan's words, and the tips of his ears, hidden in his long black hair, turned a little pink.
"Then... let's go with best two out of three." As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yao quickly added in a low voice, "Thank you."
"This time I'll say start... three, two, one," Yan Quan's clear and gentle voice brushed lightly against Ji Yao's neck because they were very close.
Ji Yao felt her pheromone-blocking neck ring getting hot. As the word "one" fell, she dizzily opened her hands and revealed a "cloth".
As expected, it was torn to shreds by the "scissors" made by Yan Quan's long, slender fingers.
Yan Quan gently traced Ji Yao's warm, burning hand with his fingertips, his tone slightly helpless: "Then, best of five?"
"No, I don't need you to give up your place!" Ji Yao stammered, her neck already flushed red as she fled in panic. "A double...a double room is fine! I...I'll stay in a double room!"
"I...I share a room with Ji Yao." For some reason, Lin Mo blushed slightly and stammered as she hurriedly caught up with Ji Yao's retreating figure and left.
"Young lady, I still prefer your defiant attitude from earlier."
Why does this seem a bit ambiguous...?
[What's going on? You're all Omes!]
〖...But Yan Quan isn't your average Omega; he's more like a 0.5A〗
[Haha, the clueless and the socially awkward became roommates!]
Lin Mo, you really need to remember to urge your roommate to read more books!
With Ji Yao and Lin Mo gone, only three Alphas remained, standing in a row waiting to be "chosen." Logically, this should have been a good opportunity for them to chat.
But Yan Quan showed no sign of lingering; his hand was already on the doorknob. He maintained a polite and appropriate social smile.
"Well... goodbye everyone?"
Then, with a "smack," he slammed the door shut without a second thought.
"Wait—" Murong Yuan's lips, which were about to speak, had to be closed coldly again. With his hands in his suit trouser pockets, he walked and ordered, "I want the single room next door."
Being near the water tower gives you an advantage; this has been true since ancient times.
"Huh???" Shan Haotian tilted his head, revealing a huge "black man with a question mark" face: "Now you're not pretending at all, right..."
"Alright then—" Shan Haotian grinned, revealing a set of arrogant white teeth. He slung his shoulder bag behind his back and swiftly leaped down, using the railing as leverage.
The tall, muscular PE student, as strong as a wall, firmly blocked Murong Yuan, who was about to go downstairs to move his luggage: "Hey, brother, don't rush off."
The once憨厚 (honest and simple) and sunny single-eyelid puppy, now with its eyes slightly narrowed, resembled a wolf ready for battle. The boastful and off-key voice gradually deepened:
"Who said this room is yours? I want to live next to Yan Quan too."
A camera overhead shot down at the two Alphas facing each other, their positions pointing directly at Yan Quan's door, forming a perfect inverted triangle.
The oppressive pheromones involuntarily emanated outwards, and the tension gradually built up in the silent standoff...
[Oh ho ho ho, this chaotic scene is so exciting!]
[I started watching romance variety shows specifically for this!]
"Let's fight! Let's fight!"
Alphas really are... sometimes no different from animals.
[Add one, this scene directly mirrors how males in the animal kingdom fight each other to gain the right to have sex.]
[Actually, it makes a lot of sense. Beautiful, proud, and intelligent... Yan Quan is a top-tier target for sexual advances.]
Yan Quan, of course, could not see the "murderous aura" of the battle outside the wall; he had important matters to attend to.
Following the tradition of the previous season, the first night will feature guests sending messages of affection.
Ji Yao is playing the "poor little white flower" role, so her love story will naturally follow a pure love route. If nothing unexpected happens, she will have a 1V1 mutual selection process with another Alpha arranged by the production team, and they will finally hold hands sweetly in the finale.
Yan Quan didn't see this "Alpha shill" at the dinner table, and the script didn't provide any detailed information... Yan Quan could only guess.
Who is it...?
Yan Quan's long, slender, and smooth fingers tapped gently on the peach wood table, his delicate eyelashes casting raven-feather shadows as he fell into deep thought.
The clock on the wall had barely ticked half an hour when the slight furrow in his delicate brows relaxed like ripples. His thin lips, with their round, beautiful cupid's bow, revealed a knowing smile.
This is the same production team that created hype and maliciously incited public opinion and fabricated scandals in the first season, and was criticized and trended on social media several times.
With such a large investment and sponsorship this season, the production team will only become more "up-to-date and innovative".
So... the one who appears the most daring and open is actually the least likely one.
As if in response to Yan Quan's guess, Ji Yao's laughter, which seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold, rang out from the living room downstairs: "Alphas are actually arm wrestling to compete for a single room!"
"They have to be athletes, their veins are so bulging when they arm wrestle, it's obvious they're not as good as others..."
Ji Yao's amused voice drifted over from downstairs and reached Yan Quan's ears: "I never would have guessed that Murong could hold out for so long..."
Yan Quan brushed the dust off his sleeves, concealed his cunning, put on an innocent and harmless look with his doe-like eyes, and slowly walked down the stairs.
The show has already begun, and it would be a disservice to his initial "fishing scumbag Omega" persona if he didn't stir things up.

Are you all used to this bullet-screen style? Is there too much bullet screen...? If you're not used to it, I'll tone it down.
