The most crowded places will always be the hospitals.
Xu Tangzhou reluctantly completed the registration process, but he didn’t expect that the reason why the nurse lady and passerby couldn’t resist taking a few glimpses at him was because of yesterday’s hot search, and only had an ominous feeling, which urged him to take out and repeatedly inhale the pheromone suppressant spray that he had used beforehand.
Maybe he’d make the news report with the headline《Shocking! An Omega passed away from an expired suppressant spray in the 22nd century. Was it because of his ignorance or stupidity?》.
Xu Tangzhou rushed straight to the Omega Department of Internal Medicine and searched for Qin Yin with the report in hand.
“What’s the big fuss about, you are merely undergoing a false menstruation.” Qin Yin skimmed through the report and spoke under the pretense of an elder, “Don’t wrongly accuse our hospital’s suppressant spray of having issues. You see, the examination report suggests that the inhibitor is still valid for at least six months.”
Qin Yin had only reached nineteen and was roommates with Xu Tangzhou.
Although they were said to be roommates, this fellow Omega who had recently entered adulthood was estimated to be away from home 20 days a month after being occupied by his doctoral studies and hospital internship with a professor.
Xu Tangzhou emphasized, “I had a nosebleed.”
His body temperature was abnormally high after getting out of bed today, and the scent glands which had begun bulging yesterday did not show any signs of subsiding as well.
There was a vague, indescribable feeling wrecking chaos inside his body, and Xu Tangzhou knew that something was amiss when his limbs softened the moment he got out of bed, making him barely able to stand on his feet.
Xu Tangzhou’s knowledge regarding physiological hygiene had met the standards and he revealed all of these to Qin Yin in detail.
Qin Yin pushed up his dark-framed spectacle and furrowed his eyebrows: “Has your uterine tube been opened?”
Xu Tangzhou’s face turned crimson: “…… I am not sure.”
Qin Yin heaved out a sigh: “You still haven’t gotten the hang of such basic knowledge even after watching so many films.”
Xu Tangzhou: “Hey! Can theoretical knowledge be the same as reality? Aren’t you the same as well, do you even have the right to speak!”
Qiu Yin turned a deaf ear to him and asked without any emotion: “Then why don’t you perform an examination on yourself? Are there any discharges? If so, how much?”
“……” Xu Tangzhou heavily slammed his head against the table and his entire body was seemingly about to burn up, “Nope… I shouldn’t have come and looked for you……”
“What else could it be if it’s not a false menstruation?” Qin Yin was highly professional and had a calm expression which stands aloof to worldly success “Your distinctive gender traits did not arrive on time and you’ve never been marked in the past, therefore you are prone to false menstruation if you have frequent contact with an Alpha within a short period of time. Nosebleeds can only indicate that your scent glands are sensitive to his pheromones and physiologically desire to be marked by him in particular. I advise you to let him leave a temporary mark on you, it’s not as if a false menstruation period will get you pregnant anyways.”
Sure enough, those who specialize in medication are all natural scums.
Xu Tangzhou covered his face, and the outer shell of the iceberg beauty utterly shattered before evolving into a hard-boiled egg: “…… That’s not possible, it’s too difficult.”
He would be digging his own grave by asking Ling Che to mark him.
Qiu Yin said: “If you do not wish to be marked, then try to avoid contact with the other party, and it’s best if you two do not meet, lest the gland be stimulated again.”

Xu Tangzhou: “My friend, could you stop gasping for breath while speaking.”
Aside from visiting professional sites, Qin Yin didn’t occasionally surf the Internet, so he knew nothing of the matters regarding Xu Tangzhou nowadays.
Qin Yin unhurriedly finished stating the official business, and remembered the main point at last: “Therefore, which alpha is powerful enough to get such a reaction out of you? This is a rare occasion, why don’t you consider pursuing the other party and have him mark you permanently……”
Xu Tangzhou retrieved his medical report: “Goodbye!”

The next day, Xu Tangzhou got a call from Huang Qian.
“Great news! Last night I had a long chat with Ya-jie over the phone, and it has been confirmed that you and Ling Che will be partaking in the program together.”
Huang Qian continued, “You should pay the company a visit to learn about precautions you need to take note of on camera and prepare your makeup as well as hairstyle for the program while you are at it.”
Xu Tangzhou received a shock and did not pay attention to the latter portion of Huang Qian’s sentence: “M-me and Ling Che?”
Huang Qian said: “That’s right,”
Xu Tangzhou: “No way, didn’t Ling Che only indicate that he would take it into consideration?”
Xu Tangzhou could still recall the words “I’ll guide him in my next life” said by Ling Che at the time.
Huang Qian was very pleased with himself: “Ya-jie meant to imply that the both of you were photographed when we were sending him back. Since it was written in the column that you two are ‘close friends’ as well, Ling Che is aware of the pros and cons, so it’s better to attend the show with this exposure rather than search for somebody else.”
Xu Tangzhou was speechless.
He simply became superficial acquaintances with Ling Che and couldn’t be considered friends at all. Their understanding of each other was nearly non-existent—— Wouldn’t they be exposed if they were to partake in the show?
Xu Tangzhou mentioned his uncertainty, but Huang Qian had made countermeasures beforehand.
“A contract must be signed for the show, Ling Che has never been on a variety show in the past, so there are many terms and conditions that Ya-jie needs to discuss with the platform. It will take at least two or three weeks before filming starts, and you have many opportunities to strengthen your understanding of each other.”
Huang Qian said, “With Ling Che’s presence, the ratings are bound to blow up, and the stage script that I’ve previously given you can be reduced.”
Xu Tangzhou had two scripts in hand, both of which were roles outside of being the third male lead.
He had no experience in acting and had a full month of performing arts lessons scheduled for next month, so it seemed that these courses would have to be postponed as well. But Huang Qian’s intention was obviously to wait until the show was on air before making other plans.
Xu Tangzhou had long since familiarized himself with one of the beloved scripts and memorized many of the lines.
“Zhou Zhou, good luck.” Huang Qian added in the end.

A week later, the third season of the most popular variety show for the past two years,《Our Perfect Vacation》made a comeback.
As a travel variety show that required the contestants to outwit each other, the program had a ridiculously small amount of funds and a huge pit of doubts that made the star participants of the show quarrel before the camera and in front of a national audience.
That being said, even though the netizens were fully aware that there were scripts, this program had become the “most realistic” star reality show out of all the various documentaries in history.
Official Blog of《Our Perfect Vacation》V: We’re back! Who will be spending the perfect trip with us this year? Raise your little index finger and give us a thumbs up! The guests of honor will be announced tomorrow night at 8:00 pm. Out of all the fans who have given us a like, 100 of them will be selected to receive 5,000 rupees.
The comment section blew up at once.
【Perfect? To hell with being perfect. It should clearly be Our “money trapping” Vacation instead.】
【Hold up, 5,000 rupees. Can the programming division have some morals???】
【Allow me to give everyone an introduction. 5000 rupees = 5 RMB [Softly Smiles] I’d be insulting myself if I were to give this post a thumbs up】
【Hahahahahahahahaha I wonder which mindless celebrities are stupid enough to partake in the show this year.】
……
A few hours later,《Our Perfect Vacation》reached the top of the hot search on Flow with the tag #up to a new height#.
【Other programs had suffered a defeat, let’s see how people managed to reach the hot search by spending 500 RMB.】
【Hehehehe, 5 bucks isn’t even enough for me to purchase a fucking cup of milk tea】
【With the ratings being so high, they must’ve yielded a bunch of profit right? Do the producers have no shame?】
【Wait a minute, I discovered the loophole. Why are rupees being given out? Could it be that they are going to the Suriram Sea Island this time?】
【Ahhhhhh Suriram is certainly gorgeous, I want to go there too ahhhhhhhh】
Not long after, a trendy comment that had been liked by the film emperor Ying Chen made it to the hot search as well.
And the comment that he liked happened to be “I wonder which mindless celebrities are stupid enough to partake in the show this year” which caused the online fans to die from laughter.
Ying Chen participated in this program last year, and it nearly ruined his public persona on one occasion. But he was a film emperor at the very least and managed to back it up with his superb acting skills.
This program did seem to be extremely awful, and Ying Chen suffered a great loss.
Ling Che was experiencing a mental breakdown at this moment, and any living entities within a two meters radius were forbidden from approaching him: “Why the fuck didn’t you say so earlier?”
“There’s no way that I’d know you would be going.” Ying Chen switched off his cell phone and spoke while rubbing his chin, “At the time, I was fooled into participating in the program as well. They say that they would absolutely give me preferential treatment and I could do whatever I want as long as I was willing to participate.”
“And then what?”
“It’s true that they allowed me to do whatever I wanted afterward, but as for their preferential treatment…… You should already be aware. They assigned me with a sweet peachy-scented Omega who didn’t use their suppressant spray properly and complained all day long.”
Even the thought of it was enough to give Ying Chen a toothache, “A year has passed, but I still have an allergic reaction to peaches.”
Ling Che thought of Xu Tangzhou.
It’s impossible for him to act spoiled even if he tried.
Ying Chen did not know what was on his mind and only assumed that he had the intention of quitting, so he added: “It’s not all that bad. This show is indeed a scam, but the cinematography as well as post-production are outstanding, and top-tier in the industry. My salary even doubled after I went on the show.”
Ling Che wasn’t concerned about these at all.
Ying Chen figured out his intentions: “You are just casually participating. By the way, who were you assigned with?”
Ling Che: “A newbie.”
Ying Chen said: “I’m guessing that they are definitely an Omega. Si Tuya is indeed reliable ah, you will be completely off the hook after you are done with the show, and the anti-fans’ scandalous remarks will end up fruitless either way because your fans will throw evidence at their faces with each passing moment by using materials from the program.”
Ling Che was non-committal and wiped off his sweat with a towel.
Their bodies were covered in moisture after playing tennis with each other and the pheromones of the two fused together inside the room.
Ying Chen: “That’s right, what’s the name of that newbie? Let me search them up.”
That sweet peachy-scented Omega had left a psychological shadow on Ying Chen last time, and he’s merely afraid that Ling Che would outsmart himself with that temper of his if he were to encounter the same situation.
“No need.” Ling Che said, “He isn’t that sort of person.”
He couldn’t be wrong about Xu Tangzhou when it comes to this aspect.
“Yo, you have so much confidence in yourself.” Ying Chen furrowed his eyebrows, “Have the two of you interacted in the past?”
Ling Che turned a deaf ear to him and stood up to gather his belongings: “You are meddling in other’s personal affairs way too much.”
The less Ling Che revealed, the more interested Ying Chen became: “Enlighten me. Who exactly are they? I have experience when it comes to Omegas, want me to give you advice?”
“You don’t know them.” Ling Che said without turning back, “Let’s leave.”

Shitty shows with high ratings are hard labor for artists. Is the host rude and sexist? It doesn’t matter as long as it’s being watched. They don’t have money and they do tests that threaten the health and life of the artist? If something happens to him, the ratings will soar! And everyone doesn’t care about the artist’s opinion …
Thank you very much for the translation 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Oho, this program looks suspicious haha~
