Xianyu And Protagonist A Are Together Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Annoying?

Gu Man sat on the sofa beside her, her gaze lowered, looking at who knows what.

By the time Wang Qiang finished speaking, five minutes had already passed.

Probably realizing he was dragging things out, he cleared his throat loudly. “Now, I will announce the room assignments everyone is most concerned about—”

“After deliberation by the production team, based on the highest scores, Wen Mian and Su Shiqiu received the highest points, totaling one hundred points; Gu Man and Zhang Yunxi came second with eighty points; and finally, our Wang Mo and Song Xue received fifty points.”

“According to the ranking, Wen Mian and Su Shiqiu will choose their rooms first!”

“Everyone, keep up the good work!”

Wen Mian was startled awake by his sudden increase in volume. She rubbed her hazy eyes and looked at Wang Qiang in confusion.

Su Shiqiu carefully nudged her arm and whispered, “We choose the rooms first.”

Only then did Wen Mian understand. She gave a blank “Oh,” and walked forward.

There weren’t many room types. The production team must have considered the artists’ identities, as they had prepared a total of four single rooms.

After a brief thought, she considered that she and Su Shiqiu were Omegas, Gu Man and Wang Mo were Alphas, and Song Xue and Zhang Yunxi were Betas.

AOs cannot live together, so Wen Mian ultimately chose a single room.

Why worry so much about others? As long as she was comfortable, that was enough. If all else failed, the production team was there; they would surely arrange everything properly.

Su Shiqiu looked at Zhang Yunxi. “Xi Xi, how about we room together?”

Zhang Yunxi nodded, quickly agreeing. “Of course we can!”

Thanks to Su Shiqiu, everyone sorted out their rooms in a second.

Wen Mian pulled her luggage toward her room. Her room was on the second floor. Looking at the staircase, Wen Mian sighed. This was an ABO world, why couldn’t they just write the staircase out of existence?

Secretly giving herself a pep talk, Wen Mian reached out for her luggage. Luggage? Where was the luggage?

Wen Mian turned her head to look. The first thing she saw was a slender, aesthetically pleasing arm, with veins visible beneath the skin.

It felt very familiar. Wen Mian looked up. Gu Man glanced at her, her tone flat. “Aren’t you going upstairs?”

Without waiting for Wen Mian’s response, Gu Man picked up the suitcase and stepped onto the stairs.

Surprise spilled into Wen Mian’s eyes. Didn’t they say Gu Man hated the original host? Why was she helping her?

Unable to figure out the reason, Wen Mian nodded, indicating that Gu Man seemed to have good manners.

Following behind Gu Man, Wen Mian looked up at the second floor with a relaxed expression.

Gu Man set the suitcase down once they reached the room.

Wen Mian took it, smiling as she thanked her. “Thank you, Gu Man.”

Gu Man gave a faint “Mm,” and walked to the room next door, pushing the door open.

Only then did Wen Mian realize that Gu Man’s room was so close to hers.

After washing up, Wen Mian rolled around on the bed. She felt a little disappointed. It wasn’t as comfortable as the bed at home! Indeed, it was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality!

Her phone vibrated. Wen Mian rolled back to the headboard, picked up the phone, and answered the call.

A loud voice came from the other end. “Wen Mian! You have fans!”

Wen Mian quickly held the phone away from her ear and asked curiously, “I have fans? Where did they come from?”

Xu Qing’s tone was filled with unconcealed laughter. “You did well today, especially that photo Zhang Yunxi took. It attracted quite a few looks-based fans. Keep it up tomorrow, and remember not to get close to Gu Man.”

Hearing Xu Qing’s words, Wen Mian recalled the photo she had casually posted earlier. She checked her account, and the comments below were already dominated by looks-based fans.

[Jie Jie is so beautiful! Take more, we love to see it!]

[Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! So beautiful that this humble girl feels lost in the vastness of the world!]

[Hehe, the photo is so good, it perfectly captured Wen Mian’s beauty. Love it, love it!]

[I like Jie Jie, and I like Xi Xi. Double fandom joy.]

…

The corners of Wen Mian’s eyes curved up, and her voice lifted. “I understand. Thank you, Agent Xu.”

Xu Qing was still not quite used to Wen Mian being so obedient. She gave the instruction, “Then keep it up,” and quickly hung up the phone.

Wen Mian continued scrolling through the fans’ comments.

Most of them liked her looks, but Wen Mian felt she could sense their happy mood when they posted their comments.

Thinking about it, Wen Mian found a spot with good lighting and took a new photo. She checked it, decided it was fine, and posted it.

This instantly brought out many night owls who hadn’t gone to sleep yet.

[Wow! Gorgeous, gorgeous!]

[Mom asked me why I was kneeling while looking at my phone. Because there’s a succubus in the phone.]

[I’m so attracted my heat is starting.]

Wen Mian scrolled down and slowly replied.

[Mian Mian Loves Sleep (Wen Mian): Hehe, I’m glad you like it.]

[A succubus? I am indeed that authoritative (shy).]

The looks-based fan who received the reply was overjoyed.

[I got a reply?! So happy! I declare: I am officially a fan, not just a looks-based fan!]

[Hehe, only children make choices. As an adult, I want both.]

[Plus one. I am now both a looks-based fan and a career fan…]

Wen Mian’s eyes softened. She put down her phone, got back into bed, and gradually drifted off to sleep.

Her lips curved up, as if she were dreaming of sweet honey.

As night deepened and the guests sank into sweet dreams, Wang Qiang urgently gathered the staff to discuss the next day’s task.

Early the next morning, the production team started stirring up trouble.

When the live stream opened, early risers and those who hadn’t slept poured in.

[Is the broadcast starting this early today? Luckily, I haven’t slept yet!]

[Plus one. The production team is inhumane. Didn’t they say it would be at the same time? I almost missed it.]

[I don’t know if I’m lucky or unlucky, because I got up early for work and caught the live stream…]

[Sister, that’s definitely unlucky. You’re miserable!]

Seeing this, Wang Qiang quickly explained, “Hello everyone! The live stream still starts at ten o’clock, but this is a random bonus segment.”

[Bonus segment? Not bad, alright, I forgive you.]

[Isn’t it too spineless to forgive him so easily? So I demand more bonus segments.]

Ignoring the live stream, Wang Qiang sent a Beta girl to knock on Wen Mian’s door first.

She knocked a few times, but no one came out.

[Haha, I’m laughing so hard, no one’s there!]

[That’s me, alright. Can’t get up, absolutely can’t get up.]

Wang Qiang gritted his teeth and simply picked up his phone to call.

The phone rang for a while, but still no one answered. The audience’s laughter grew louder.

Wang Qiang’s face flushed red, and he called again.

Wen Mian was so sleepy her eyes wouldn’t open. She casually picked up the phone and pressed the answer button. “Hello? Hi, no problem, that’s good, I’m hanging up!”

Before Wang Qiang could speak, Wen Mian rattled off a string of words, ready to hang up.

Wang Qiang quickly stopped her, his voice high and filled with exasperation. “Miss Wen Mian, it’s time to get up for the mission!”

Wen Mian half-opened her eyes and glanced at the phone. “Time to get up? Okay, give me five minutes.”

A “beep beep” sound rang out, and the phone rolled onto the headboard.

[Hahaha! Is Wen Mian this hilarious?]

[It has to be her. I knew it when she opened her suitcase yesterday. The production team can’t control Wen Mian.]

[Dying of laughter. Is the Director super angry right now?]

Wang Qiang was indeed a little annoyed. He smoothed down his chest and quietly comforted himself. “Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. No one will take your place if you ruin your health.”

Unexpectedly, he was wearing a mic, and his muttering was clearly picked up. Everyone laughed even harder.

Even the staff nearby covered their mouths, afraid their laughter would be heard, their exposed faces red.

Wang Qiang gritted his teeth. “It’s fine, we’ll switch to someone else.”

With that, he quickly left the embarrassing spot.

He didn’t dare call Gu Man, so Wang Qiang decided to call Zhang Yunxi.

Fortunately, Zhang Yunxi was cooperative and got up quickly.

Wang Qiang started giving her the mission. “Xi Xi, your mission is very simple. Randomly choose a guest to wake up, and then have them wake up the next guest.”

Zhang Yunxi nodded, her tone gentle. “That’s easy. I’ll go wake up Shiqiu!”

Only then did Wang Qiang remember that the two of them were sharing a room. He slapped his thigh in regret. He should have assigned it himself. His original idea was for Zhang Yunxi to wake up Wen Mian.

Within a few seconds, Su Shiqiu walked out of the room.

Su Shiqiu woke up Song Xue, and Song Xue woke up Wang Mo.

Wang Mo looked at the two remaining people, her eyes filled with despair. “Seriously? You only left these two for me?”

Thinking of Gu Man’s icy expression, Wang Mo couldn’t help but shiver. In the end, she decided to wake Wen Mian first.

The audience in the live stream watched the excitement, laughing.

[Hahaha, I hope Mo Mo can wake Wen Mian up.]

[Based on my experience, the scene just now is about to repeat.]

As expected, knocking on the door still got no response. Wang Mo picked up her phone and called Wen Mian.

“Mian Mian, time to get up!”

Wen Mian reluctantly rolled over in bed, opened her eyes, and her voice was still sleepy. “Okay, I know. Give me five minutes.”

Everyone laughed even more wildly.

[Five minutes again! I wonder if these five minutes will be indefinitely long.]

[I’m dying of laughter, they absolutely will be!]

Wang Mo hadn’t yet experienced the wickedness of human nature. She waited quietly by the door for five minutes, then six minutes…

Just as she was about to give up and call again, the door was suddenly pulled open. Wen Mian appeared, her face bare, smooth, and flawless.

Knowing she had trouble getting up, Wen Mian quickly thanked her. “Thank you for the trouble of waking me up.”

The live stream paused abruptly. After a few seconds, the comments started flooding the screen.

[Beautiful! Beautiful!]

[So beautiful I don’t know what to say!]

[Looks-based fans are indeed authoritative. I like this!]

Wang Mo didn’t dwell on it. Instead, a meaningful smile appeared on her face. “Mian Mian, we have a mission. Do you want to know what it is?”

Wen Mian felt a moment of helplessness. With that expression, who would want to know? So she decisively refused. “I don’t want to know.”

“The mission is… don’t… you don’t want to know!” Wang Mo blurted out before realizing that Wen Mian had said she didn’t want to know.

She gave an awkward laugh and stopped teasing. “You have to know even if you don’t want to. The mission is to wake up Gu Man!”

As she finished speaking, she spread her hands, her voice full of delight.

Wen Mian looked around. Everyone was dressed and ready, but Gu Man was nowhere to be seen.

Would it be awkward for her to wake Gu Man? But then she remembered it was a mission. Wen Mian cheered up again and gave a faint “Mm.” “Fine, I’ll go wake her.”

Gu Man’s room was very close. Wen Mian walked through the crowd and knocked on the door with a “pat pat.”

Everyone was stunned. Wait, was Wen Mian that brave?

Song Xue gritted her teeth, thinking resentfully: I should have knocked on Gu Man’s door myself!

The audience members were watching the show, some worried, some gloating…
