Scum A with a Sweet Black Lotus O – Chapter 79.1
by Little Panda“Pei Xuezhi, let’s be together.”
【Well, well, well, that’s so Qi Changfeng.】
【Initially, seeing Ni Jiaojiao firmly reject Xia Shiyi, I thought this pair was solid. Now look at Qi Changfeng… Young people, nothing is certain yet!】
【Thank you, Qi Changfeng, for keeping the suspense alive! (dog head)】
【With this suspense-building skill, it wouldn’t be excessive for the production team to kowtow to Qi Changfeng right now, right?】
With so many clips of the two interacting, Qi Changfeng chose this piece of “dark history” that Ni Jiaojiao desperately wanted to delete as the opening. And, this guy’s cunning maneuvers didn’t stop there.
【Look at Qi Changfeng’s flowers!】
Like all straight-A alphas, Qi Changfeng chose red roses symbolizing romance and passion, the most classic kind, can’t go wrong, and then—
He arranged them in a large heart shape on a raised base.
Similar to how alphas pursued omegas by arranging candles in a heart shape downstairs of the dormitory during college, it carried a strong sense of old-fashioned, cheesy romance.
The only slightly redeeming quality was that Qi Changfeng’s rose heart was solid, making it appear less shabby :）
【Really cheesy, so typical of a straight-A alpha!】
【Thanks to the production team’s deep pockets, this disaster doesn’t look that bad…】
The screen behind them started to play.
It was actually an intercut of their sweet interactions from the first week and Qi Changfeng’s subsequent “lick dog” [舔狗 | tiǎn gǒu | someone who excessively caters to the object of their affection] style pursuit of Ni Jiaojiao. Of course, the editor flawlessly erased Xia Shiyi’s presence from the footage. The juxtaposition made people laugh.
【What romantic confession is this? It’s a hilarious retrospective!!】
【Qi Changfeng, danger!!!】
After two or three segments, Qi Changfeng also opened a letter he specifically wrote to Ni Jiaojiao and read it aloud.
“I know, I’m not a good alpha. I’m arrogant, proud, controlling, and sometimes even disrespectful…”
“Growing up, I always thought I’d be with a gentle omega, until I met you.”
“I also know I have many flaws, but as long as you say the word, I’m willing to change them one by one.”
Word by word, paragraph by paragraph, it was an earnest self-analysis, exceptionally sincere and honest.
At this point, everyone realized that Qi Changfeng’s Ivy League education wasn’t fake; he just put all his EQ and IQ points into IQ and used it to get into a good university. Pitifully, the remaining EQ points were incredibly scarce.
Gradually, no one in the comments section mocked him anymore. Qi Changfeng chose Ni Jiaojiao’s self-deprecating opening for their interaction clip and used the footage of him chasing after her as the ending.
Clearly, he did it on purpose, laying out the most contradictory points early on…
Finally, Qi Changfeng looked at Ni Jiaojiao, his voice almost a roar, the veins in his neck bulging, appearing somewhat frightening.
“Ni Jiaojiao, I like you!”
“Even if you’re a beta, I still like you!”
“The show is ending soon, can we continue being together?! You don’t have to cater to me like you did in the beginning, this time, I’ll cater to you!!”
Just like what he was saying now.
I know what you are, but I still can’t help but… like you.
He roared so loudly that the surrounding air seemed to vibrate. Ni Jiaojiao initially just listened, but as she listened, she suddenly covered her mouth with her hand, leaving only her eyes exposed.
Qi Changfeng fixed his gaze on those eyes, his own bloodshot.
Then.
“Woof! Woof woof!!”
The many bold words spoken before couldn’t be taken back, so he could only act like a puppy, all his words disregarded.
With just that, Ni Jiaojiao laughed, the corners of her eyes curving. Even though she was just a beta, at this moment, her eyes sparkled, incredibly beautiful.
“What are you still standing there for!”
Influenced by this idiot, Ni Jiaojiao unconsciously raised her voice as well. She finally lowered the hand covering her mouth, revealing her upturned lips, also bearing a deep smile.
She beckoned to Qi Changfeng.
“Idiot, come here! I don’t want to be embarrassed with you!!”
The tall and strong alpha across from her, in an instant, was like a big dog seeing a bone. He strode forward in a few steps and lifted the petite and slender Ni Jiaojiao with his strong arms.
Then, he lifted her high, causing her feet to leave the ground as he started spinning her around.
Ni Jiaojiao was happy at first, but as the surrounding applause erupted, she suddenly remembered that she was still in front of so many cameras, and she didn’t know how many people were watching this scene. She suddenly felt shy and patted Qi Changfeng’s back.
“Wait, put me down first—”
The husky was practically ecstatic, how could he listen? With boundless energy, he held Ni Jiaojiao and continued spinning, so fast that Ni Jiaojiao felt dizzy.
The hand patting his back gradually increased its force.
“Flowers, flowers!” she shouted, “The director hasn’t announced that we’re officially together yet, you have to give me the flowers!!”
The force landing on his back was nothing to a strong alpha, but Ni Jiaojiao’s words brought Qi Changfeng back to his senses a little.
Right.
The program stipulated that after reading the letter written to the other party, they had to take a flower and offer it to them. If the other party accepted it, it meant they agreed, and the two were officially together.
After all, the show 《Love at First Sight》 was considered their matchmaker, so the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
Recalling this, Qi Changfeng finally put Ni Jiaojiao down. By now, Ni Jiaojiao was dizzy from being spun around.
She slightly regretted it.
She looked up.
A bouquet of vibrant red roses suddenly appeared before her, thrust directly towards her face.
“Jiaojiao, they’re all for you.” Qi Changfeng’s voice was filled with warmth and passion.
Ni Jiaojiao: “…”
The flowers were practically poking her face, was there any reason for her not to accept them? Forget it, forget it, she had already spoken, and spilled water couldn’t be gathered again…
It was clearly a romantic confession night, and they had indeed stumbled into a relationship, but after his actions, Ni Jiaojiao had countless things she could complain about. In the end, she gracefully accepted a single rose from the large bouquet.
The ceremony was complete.
The atmosphere at this moment was just right. The production team didn’t insert any sound to disrupt the current moment, only softly starting to play a song.
《Like You》 [喜欢你 | xǐhuan nǐ]
Qi Changfeng still wanted to give the remaining roses to Ni Jiaojiao, after all, every red rose represented a part of his love, and love couldn’t be wasted!
Then, he received a glare from her.
“These roses haven’t had their thorns removed, Qi Changfeng, are you trying to stab me to death?!”
“…”
The guilty big dog instantly drooped his ears and stopped bouncing around. His arrogance subsided slightly, and Ni Jiaojiao saw what was behind him.
The originally solid heart of roses had a hole ripped out of its center, directly becoming bald!
Ni Jiaojiao: “…” Any romantic atmosphere completely vanished.
Qi Changfeng also noticed the collapsed romance behind him. The husky who had done wrong looked at the person in front of him. Since Ni Jiaojiao didn’t want the remaining roses anyway, he simply stuffed them back in as filler.
Very carelessly, and it was impossible to make it look the same as before in just a few minutes.
Looking at the even uglier rose heart, Ni Jiaojiao: “…”
Don’t even get her started.
Forget it, out of sight, out of mind.
【It was supposed to be a romantic confession, why is this pair so funny!】
【After all the twists and turns, the good news is that they finally got together. Jiaojiao is a saint!】
【To be honest, what moved Jiaojiao was probably the husky’s sincerity. Whether it’s marriage or breakup in the future, it’s hard to say, but at least at this moment, they like each other.】
【The first couple of the day, congratulations.】
【Just now, I thought Xia Shiyi wasn’t bad, but now compared to Qi Changfeng, I feel like the former is missing something. It just doesn’t feel right.】
【Nervous? Xia Shiyi didn’t seem nervous at all. It seemed affectionate, but somewhat artificial, as if she already knew she would be rejected.】
【And she didn’t even offer a flower…】
Gradually, Ni Jiaojiao slowly recovered and extended her hand towards the goofy husky, “Come with me.”
“Oh.”
Qi Changfeng practically wagged his tail as he followed.
Ni Jiaojiao and Qi Changfeng were successfully paired. The confession house she prepared was no longer needed, but she could still take her mutually interested partner to see it.
Ni Jiaojiao chose lily of the valley and purple tulips. She created a wave shape, with purple waves underneath topped with white lily of the valley. [LP: Lily of the valley symbolizes happiness, humility, sweetness, and a return to happiness. It’s often associated with purity and motherhood as well. Purple tulips represent royalty, nobility, and lasting love. They can also symbolize rebirth and renewal.]
Ni Jiaojiao took a lily of the valley from the top and handed it to Qi Changfeng, “Here.”
Her posture was casual, but Qi Changfeng treasured it after receiving it.
And Ni Jiaojiao’s video started playing. This older sister’s actions were much more appropriate than the 20-something-year-old impulsive alpha. She chose mostly romantic and heartwarming scenes of the two of them interacting.
【Is this really Qi Changfeng?】
【After watching the clips from just now, I actually have some doubts…】
【Qi Changfeng when he first arrived and now are completely different. It’s another kind of alpha puberty (dog head).】
【I’m dying of laughter!】
Ni Jiaojiao also began to read her letter to Qi Changfeng.
“…Qi…Changfeng-didi, as you said, you have many shortcomings, such as…”
Here was a long list of Qi Changfeng’s shortcomings, leaving him dumbfounded.
【Hahaha, even during the confession, they’re still roasting each other!】
【This is called tit for tat! (evil.jpg)】
Finally, Ni Jiaojiao changed her tone, “But, I’m the same… Perhaps in the future we can supervise each other and improve together.”
“Just like how you’re willing to tolerate my bad temper, I’m also willing to tolerate your occasional childishness.”
“How long is the rest of our lives, how should we walk the road ahead… I don’t know these things, but at least at this moment, I’m willing to be with you.”
“And—”
“Thank you for your persistent affection and for not giving up. Really, thank you.”
The comments section was already this excited, and the applause of the other guests around them erupted, including Fu Chaoyun, including Pei Xuezhi, even Xia Shiyi had to suppress her displeasure and applaud for the two’s “true love.”
Qi Changfeng couldn’t hold back anymore and hugged Ni Jiaojiao again!
“Wuwuwu, Jiaojiao, you’re so good!!”
Ni Jiaojiao seemed very disgusted, turning her head to the side, refusing to have contact with the idiot, but this time she didn’t push the big guy away.
【Jiaojiao’s cultural accomplishment is so high, as expected of a secretary, this letter is so touching, wuwuwu~】
【Alphas and betas being together has no guarantee, but no matter what the future holds, just like Ni Jiaojiao said, at least at this moment, they’re willing to be responsible for their choice, they’re both happy!!】
【Although alpha-beta relationships are politically incorrect, I still want to shout – kdl [kdl | knocked dead, internet slang expressing excitement]!!】
【I suddenly realized something.】
【? Spill the tea!】
【Everyone usually calls Ni Jiaojiao “Jiaojiao-jie” as the second oldest person in the villa, with only the oldest, Qin Zhenyan, being deprived of this qualification. Jian Yi initially called her “Jiaojiao,” but was later assimilated, especially Xia Shiyi, who called her “Jiaojiao-jie” all day long, like a puppy acting cute. The comments section was all talking about how sweet it was at the time, but… from Ni Jiaojiao’s perspective, would anyone really want to be called “older sister” all the time?】
【Only Qi Changfeng, from beginning to end, always called her “Jiaojiao.”】
【Whether you say he’s arrogant and a straight-A alpha, or he could never put down his pride to be a younger brother, or it was a lucky coincidence… he always treated Ni Jiaojiao as an ordinary suitor, and perhaps it’s this insignificant detail that ultimately allowed him to win the beauty’s heart.】
【Also, when you like someone, you initially present your best side to them, but from the moment Ni Jiaojiao chose to tear off the mask, perhaps everything was destined to change.】
【Detailed, so detailed!】
Until the director’s voice reminding them to exchange letters came.
Ni Jiaojiao paused for a moment, and then, Qi Changfeng beside her quickly completed the exchange.
The alpha was clearly deeply moved.
The initial passion and the later coldness simultaneously brought him great emotional upheaval. Rarely able to hear Ni Jiaojiao’s “true confession,” he couldn’t help but want to revisit the sweet words a few more times.
The letter was opened again, and Qi Changfeng froze after just one glance.
“Jiaojiao,” he called to the person beside him, “this content seems…”
…a bit different.
Ni Jiaojiao turned around, and when she saw his actions, her pupils constricted in shock. She immediately covered the alpha’s mouth.
“Shut up!”
Qi Changfeng immediately didn’t dare to speak.
【Hahahaha!】
【What happened again?】
【Probably the content written in Ni Jiaojiao’s letter is different from what she “read” just now. As expected of a secretary, her ability to improvise is strong!】
【Your Jiaojiao-jie will always be your Jiaojiao-jie, Qi Changfeng? Just a little brother!】
【Carry them away.jpg】
This couple was carried off stage, ultimately concluding with a happy ending filled with laughter and joy.
Next up, it was Tang Ying’s turn.
Without a doubt, she chose Jian Yi.
These two only got together in the latter half of the show, and they had fewer clips than the others, but with two solo dates, it was completely enough to fill the ten minutes.
Tang Ying also chose tulips, but red ones. [LP: Red tulips symbolize perfect or enduring love, and are a declaration of love. They are also associated with passion and romance.]
As a wedding dress designer by profession, she used her expertise this time, arranging the tulips in the shape of clothing—
A doctor’s white coat… well, perhaps a red coat.
“Dr. Jian, can I visit you at the hospital? This time, not as a patient.”
Jian Yi accepted the flower she offered, smiling faintly, “Yes.”
On stage.
《Like You》 played for the second time, followed by Jian Yi leading Tang Ying to his side. He chose daisies, also related to his profession, arranged in the shape of a stethoscope. [LP: Daisies symbolize innocence, purity, new beginnings, and loyal love. They can also convey the message of “I’ll never tell,” suggesting secrecy or discretion. Different colors of daisies can have slightly different meanings, but white daisies, the most common variety, primarily represent purity and innocence.]
Fitting his profession as a doctor, it also subtly hinted at “listening to your heart.”
Tang Ying’s story started with a sprained ankle incident, while Jian Yi’s turned into scenes of him silently paying attention to her, highlighting a slow-burn romance.
“Later, I suddenly realized that even watching a thousand other people’s relationships isn’t as interesting as experiencing it yourself.”
“So let’s have one.”
It was already unusual for the always gentle and courteous Jian Yi to say such words. It seemed to be missing something, but Tang Ying was quite satisfied.
He received the letter, and it seemed that the content he had written was finished, but then he saw Tang Ying’s face and added another sentence.
“Miss Tang, thank you for coming.”
Tang Ying looked up almost in astonishment, and when she saw the faint smile in his eyes, in that moment, she felt that they were even more beautiful than a sky full of stars.
As an omega, although not as unrestrained as Fu Li, she also had a relatively outgoing personality. When she was with the scumbag alpha “Fu Chaoyun,” she didn’t experience the joy of love at all. Later, although she had dated several people of the same age, it wasn’t serious, and gradually she became immersed in her studies and career.
Was a mature, older boyfriend this charming?
Tang Ying was captivated. She even wanted to hug him, but up to this point, they had only held hands at most. In the end, Tang Ying barely suppressed the urge, secretly reaching out to hold Jian Yi’s hand.
In front of the cameras, it wasn’t really a secret.
Naturally, Jian Yi noticed. The gentle beta looked at her sideways and finally chose to hold her hand back, accepting her gesture.
woo the couples are all so sweet
I adore this chapter everyone gets what they all deserve, now just waiting for the main couple!
