Six pearls
During the intermission of the show, Su Liu and the others had dinner, and by the time everything was finished, it was almost midnight.
Su Liu was so sleepy that Lu Liang kept cheering him up, saying that as the soul of the team, he hadn't even finished reading how to vote, which was unfair to other contestants. Su Liu suspected that Lu Liang was making fun of him.
After forcing himself to listen to the comments of all the judges, it was finally Su Liu's turn to speak. After a moment's thought, Su Liu gave his opinion. He commented on the three beauties he liked the most, saying that No. 2 was beautiful, No. 7 was tenacious, and No. 11 was young and had a bright future.
This review was obviously not professional. Several beauties on the stage who were not named showed disdainful expressions, and the fifth and eighth brothers of the Pei family simply uttered sarcastic laughs.
Su Liu didn't care. He had a different perspective from them. The original intention of the beauty pageant was to provide human Omegas with a relatively better way out. In this case, beauty, tenacity and youth were the three most important scoring points. Among them, what he valued most was tenacity of character.
If you only have beautiful looks but don’t try more things while you are young, you will not have the capital to make mistakes when you are older; if you don’t have a strong character, you will not be able to face setbacks alone.
He just wanted to take this opportunity to remind these already beautiful beauties not to go down the wrong path.
When the show was over, Lu Liang quickly walked over and asked, "You like number seven, right? Then we'll vote for her?"
Su Liu mumbled "hmm" and was carried out by Qi Fengling.
"It's so late, don't go back. There are plenty of places to stay here," Lu Liang advised.
"It's just a few steps away," Su Liu closed her eyes and waved her hand, "It's inconvenient for me to live here."
"...What's inconvenient about it?" Lu Liang felt that Su Liu's words were a bit mysterious.
Su Liu leaned on Qi Fengling's neck and smiled gently.
Seeing that Su Liu was not going to stay, Lu Liang no longer wanted to rest there. She planned to go home as usual, but when she stepped out of the door, she thought of Su Liu's smile and felt that something was strange.
Lu Liang turned around and walked back.
"Xiao Liangliang, why don't you go back this time?" Pei Qing said with a wicked smile.
"What? You want to do something bad?" Lu Liang asked vigilantly, "If you want to deal with Su Liu, wait until tomorrow. It's too late. Aren't you sleepy?"
"The nightlife has just begun. Come on, I'll take you to have a look," Pei Qing held her in his arms like a brother and walked towards the backyard where those beauties lived.
A night passed.
When Su Liu saw Lu Liang again after lunch, Lu Liang looked a little haggard.
"Didn't you sleep all night?" Su Liu's face was rosy, and it was obvious that she had a good rest.
"Su Liu, this is so terrible. You don't know what I went through all night!" Lu Liang said as he looked at the beauty in Pei Qing's arms not far away.
Su Liu was eating a peach, turning her head to the side as if she wanted to hear more.
"...those people pounced on me like hungry wolves, offering to warm my bed and hinting that I could do whatever I wanted to them. I was almost crying at that time. With so many beauties rushing towards me, I couldn't push them away, nor could I not push them away. I had to cover my body tightly. I...I was still young," Lu Liang was terrified.
Su Liu laughed, "Why warm the bed in such a hot day?"
"That's what I mean. I don't understand what they mean. Why do I feel like I'm being bullied?" Lu Liang felt sorry for himself.
Su Liu listened to Lu Liang's story and found it very interesting. No wonder these people treated Lu Liang as a child. Lu Liang was indeed only able to tease the Omega with words, but when asked to do something real, she became timid. It was obvious that she had not yet figured it out.
"Did our No. 7 come to see you?" Su Liu swallowed the last piece of peach meat and looked at the beauty who was standing alone in the corner, looking up at the sky in a daze.
"Not really, but I heard that Pei Wu went to look for her, and she seemed to be blocking the door and not letting him in. Isn't this offending people? She's so stupid. Even if she becomes the first, what if Mr. Andrei rejects her? Pei Wu has already made it known that no one dares to take her now. This Omega has a really stubborn temper. Just pretend, why make things so awkward?" Lu Liang sighed.
"..." As an Alpha, Lu Liang couldn't see things from an Omega's perspective. Number Seven was an Omega. If Pei Wu used force, could she really rely on just her ability to play along and say no like Lu Liang did, and still save herself so completely? Lu Liang's expression, having survived a disaster, revealed a hint of the smugness of "What can you Omegas do to me? You want to take advantage of me? No way!" Su Liu watched and took a deep breath.
"What's that look on your face? I was busy last night and didn't have time to meddle in such trivial matters." Lu Liang always felt that Su Liu seemed unhappy, and said aggrievedly: "That No. 11 you liked came to see me last night. He looked cute and sweet, but he was actually not a good person. Seeing that he was blocked by four or five beauties, he took advantage of the chaos to kiss my face. Fortunately, I dodged quickly, otherwise I would have lost my first kiss... I, I was bullied too!"
"Did you open the door?" Su Liu's face was calm.
"...I, I opened it. How could I know that these delicate Omegas could do such a thing?" Lu Liang acted coyly, with more boasting than fear in his tone.
"Then you deserve it," Su Liu concluded.
"...Why do you speak so harshly? Look at my face, are there red marks? They were sucked on me." Lu Liang put one side of her face close to Su Liu, as if begging Su Liu to sympathize with her.
"You are so ungrateful that you can't help but feel happy in your heart. You, Miss Lu Liang, are so popular. Pei Wu was turned away, but nearly half of the beauties on your side are chasing after you. In this respect, you are far better than Pei Wu," Su Liu said perfunctorily.
"Ah? Ah! Yes, that's right," Lu Liang was immediately coaxed into a beaming smile.
"Where is number two? It's almost time to announce the rankings, right? Why can't I see him?" Su Liu looked around. His dynamic vision had already captured the trace of the beauty, but Su Liu did not show it.
"He slept with Pei Ba yesterday. They were so passionate. When Pei Qing took me over to see it, I couldn't bear to watch..." Speaking of this exciting anecdote, Lu Liang covered his blushing face embarrassedly.
Su Liu raised an eyebrow. Number Two was the most beautiful and had a gentle personality, which made people feel pity. She was probably raped by Pei Ba last night. Su Liu glanced over and saw tears on Number Two's face. It was obvious that she didn't want to. "Is there such a thing?"
"If you ask me, none of the three you've chosen are very good. You should choose again," Lu Liang analyzed them one by one. "Number seven doesn't know how to adapt. She won't seize the opportunity given to her. She's not worth cultivating. There's no need to say much about number eight and eleven. They both like to take shortcuts."
"According to what you said, there must be at least one beauty here," Su Liu glanced at Lu Liang.
"The remaining three, nine, and ten are law-abiding and steady, but their talent performance is also rather mediocre. After looking around, I think it would be better for you to be the champion," Lu Liang said nonsense.
"But I'm a married woman. According to the rules, I can't participate in the competition, right?" Su Liu didn't seem to notice Lu Liang's offense and raised a practical question.
"What rules? Aren't we the ones who have the final say? If it's that strict, there are probably only a few virgins among the beauties present. How can we choose?" Lu Liang, the werewolf, revealed himself.
"Then number seven should be, I choose her as the first," Su Liu insisted.
"That's fine, but you're harming her. She's good-looking, but according to Mr. Andri's aesthetic standards in previous years, she seems a little lacking and is likely to be rejected," Lu Liang said worriedly.
"You are a weasel paying New Year's greetings, with no good intentions. Doesn't it mean that she will get something good if she doesn't rank first? Lu Liang, you didn't agree to someone's request last night, did you? With so many beauties, kissing and touching them, are you shaken?" Su Liu's expression changed.
"I feel wronged. They forced me to kiss and touch me, but I didn't touch even a finger of theirs. And I agreed to them? I didn't even have time to hide..." Lu Liang felt very aggrieved.
"Then let's vote for number seven," Su Liu made the final decision.
"Okay," Lu Liang had no choice but to let Su Liu take over.
After Lu Liang brought four votes to support No. 7 and became the leader, the first place was no longer a foregone conclusion.
The crowd began to whisper, and their eyes, either surprised or contemptuous, fell on Number Seven. Number Seven lowered his head and said nothing.
At this moment, Pei Ba came over, holding Number Two in his arms, and said bluntly, "Everyone, be quiet. Number Two deserves first place. No one else can snatch it from him."
Number Two's face turned pale. Upon hearing this, he raised his head and looked at Pei Ba, with a look of longing in his eyes.
After Pei Ba finished speaking, the beauties at the scene stopped talking. Number two was the most beautiful and had top-notch talent. If it came down to his strength, he really deserved it.
"Number Two's family is poor, and he has an uncle with a disabled hand. He needs money to buy that healing elixir, and the pearls on the crown are just enough to pay for it," Lu Liang exclaimed in amazement. "But Pei Ba is so blunt in his words. He doesn't take me seriously. Isn't he afraid that I'll give him a hard time?"
"It seems that the medicine is for the highest bidder. The six pearls are just the starting price. If you want to buy it, you will need more money. I think he is just waiting to make trouble with you and tease No. 2," Su Liu saw through it in a second.
"Is that so? I was wondering why Pei Ba was so kind. I was just about to persuade you to change your vote, but I didn't expect that he was still as annoying as before, relying on this relatively decent face to deceive the little beauty," Lu Liang sneered, then slammed the table and quarreled with Pei Ba.
The two Alphas started fighting, and Pei Wu immediately stepped forward to mediate. Outnumbered, Lu Liang was clearly at a disadvantage. She was so angry she burst into tears after taking a few punches. She immediately seized the opportunity and ran out to get help while threatening, "You two, wait with me. I'll call Gu Liu over!"
"This traitor who said one thing and did another, who played us around like a fool and pretended to be a good person, is finally gone," Pei Wu's dimples rose.
Pei Qing, who was looking for fun, turned around and looked at Su Liu with a wicked smile.
Pei Ba surrounded them.
Not far behind them were those beauties who were at a loss and extremely curious.
Number Seven shook his hand nervously.
Number Two was a little frightened and shrank back, but there was more than just fear in his eyes.
"Who are you to dare to be on the same level with us?" Pei Ba's upright face twisted, as if he had endured Su Liu for a long time.
