Pretending to Be a Cannon-Fodder Alpha, I Went Viral on a Dating Show

Food blogger Wen Huiyun, famous across the internet, transmigrates into the body of a cannon-fodder Alpha in a yuri ABO novel.

The original owner secretly married the female lead, Ye Zhuoyan, through an arranged marriage. Two years later, she looked down on Ye Zhuoyan for having faded from fame in showbiz and for her family's declining fortunes. She forced Ye Zhuoyan to leave with nothing, handed her over to someone else, and called the paparazzi to expose her, ruining her reputation.

After that, the female lead fought her way back and sparked an unforgettable romance with her destined Alpha on a dating show. The two became hugely popular and rebuilt their family businesses.

The original owner was swindled out of her assets by a sweet-talking white lotus, and her family fell into ruin. She became a stray dog overnight, had her glands cut out by the destined Alpha, and was abandoned in an uninhabited zone to fend for herself.

To make matters worse, Wen Huiyun discovered that she had transmigrated into the book in her own body, while the original owner had died in an accident. Her body had not yet presented, so she could only win the female lead's favor and exchange it through the System for custom pheromones to pass herself off as the original owner.

What a brutal survival mode from the start!

To save herself, Wen Huiyun tore up the divorce papers and decided to return to her old profession as a food blogger and take good care of Ye Zhuoyan. She searched for the dating show Ye Zhuoyan was about to join, quietly signed herself up, and planned to build a following for her food streams first...

Wen Huiyun became the person who seemed most out of place on the dating show.

While the other guests introduced their zodiac signs and hobbies, she recommended her handmade mochi. While everyone else fought over props, she handed every prop she won to Ye Zhuoyan.

While everyone else competed for dates, she turned down every invitation and prepared a feast for Ye Zhuoyan. No one else knew that day was the third anniversary of her marriage to Ye Zhuoyan.

Ye Zhuoyan's cold, prickly heart gradually melted under Wen Huiyun's gentle attentiveness.

At the final selection, Ye Zhuoyan slipped a heart-shaped card into Wen Huiyun's envelope and whispered in her ear, "You know, I'm going into heat next week."

Wen Huiyun was a little confused, then heard her add, "I threw away all the suppressants at home..."

What's it like to appear on the same dating show as your secretly married wife?

It's a heart-pounding experience of dodging cameras and secretly using pheromones behind your wife's back.

Wen Huiyun hid in the closet. She had just injected herself with a dose of pheromones matching the original owner's scent. Now she was presenting as an Alpha, and her glands were almost fully developed.

A flashlight beam fell on her face. Ye Zhuoyan curled her lips into a smile. "Wen Huiyun, so you've been pretending to be an Alpha all along."

Wen Huiyun couldn't explain herself. Wife, please hear me out!

Ye Zhuoyan pulled Wen Huiyun into her arms and gently bit into her glands. "Even if you're a Beta, I won't look down on you."

Huh?

Ye Zhuoyan was instantly enveloped by an unfamiliar but wonderful Alpha pheromone. It smelled so good, so rich, she was about to swoon.

She might be the first Omega in the world to mark herself!

Reading guide:

1. Gentle, scheming food blogger Alpha x abstinent, aloof, once-popular dancer Omega

2. One-on-one romance, happy ending. The Alpha has no hidden abilities. No childbirth in the main story, though it's briefly mentioned; the extras include a baby.

3. Wen Huiyun transmigrates into the book in her own body. She has not presented when she first arrives, and only develops Alpha glands later. At first, she uses custom pheromones to pass herself off as an Alpha.

Coming soon: How About Remarrying? The Baby Keeps Crying:

Xu Linxia's arranged-marriage wife was an iceberg. During their two years of marriage, Xu Linxia was always the only one making an effort.

Her wife was cold as usual, but she even set a countdown for exchanging pheromones, never letting it last a second longer.

From all this, Xu Linxia reached one conclusion:

Qin Xuran could never love her.

Xu Linxia practiced in her head: If you don't love me, then forget it. It's not like I like you that much either, and your poker face really isn't anything special.

The housekeeper said, "President Qin, you're back."

Xu Linxia appeared at the door in an instant and bent down to take off Qin Xuran's high heels. "Darling, your ankles have gotten even slimmer."

After hundreds of nights lying beside her sleeping wife, Xu Linxia would ask herself: Do you have the guts to stop being such a pushover?

At last, one day, Xu Linxia finally stood up for herself.

She brought a lawyer to the CEO's office and slapped a divorce agreement down in front of President Qin.

"Qin Xuran, let's get divorced."

Being single was wonderful.

Xu Linxia no longer had to carry her wife's bags, massage her shoulders, or peel every last bit of tomato skin out of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes she made for her.

The idol drama she starred in became so popular that both adorable seven-year-olds and seventy-year-old grandmothers rushed to buy merchandise of her.

She was so popular that she'd won the entertainment industry's "Most Wanted to Date" title three years in a row.

With her popularity rising, and scripts all hers to choose from, Xu Linxia was certain she'd made the right choice in getting divorced.

Ten months after the divorce, Xu Linxia received a text from her ex-wife: How about we get remarried?

Xu Linxia read it and didn't reply. Then she got a call from the hospital and witnessed the birth of her and Qin Xuran's daughter.

Lying in her postpartum bed, Qin Xuran's usually cold eyes held an unusual tenderness. "How about we get remarried?"

Xu Linxia steeled herself and refused.

Qin Xuran didn't mention remarriage again for three years. She simply invited Xu Linxia to appear on the hottest remarriage reality show of the moment.

Xu Linxia said, "My schedule is full." Hmph, what a devious Omega.

A squishy little bundle threw herself into Xu Linxia's arms and called in a sweet little voice, "Mooommy, let's go play on the show together!"

Xu Linxia immediately hugged her daughter tight. "We're going, we're going! Absolutely!"

Ahhh, my daughter is the cutest person in the universe!

The marriage reality show Here's to the Original, designed to get more people returning to the marriage bureau, was livestreaming to huge audiences. All the ex-wives were ready to go.

In the reception room, Xu Linxia picked up a broom.

Qin Xuran spotted a chance to help. "Leave it to me!"

On the food street, Xu Linxia glanced at the candied hawthorn on a stick.

Qin Xuran brought it to her lips. "Xuxu, say ah."

During a late-night heart-to-heart, one guest put on a pained expression. "Even when she was naked in front of me, I felt nothing. All these years, I never knew what an orgasm was."

Xu Linxia remembered how cold her ex-wife had been and quietly lowered her head.

Qin Xuran declared proudly, "I'm satisfied every time. Xuxu is really good at it."

Xu Linxia: ???

Host: !!!

Audience: !!!

While the other ex-wife pairs argued until their faces turned red, Qin Xuran showered Xu Linxia with affection in every possible way.

While the other pairs descended into chaos, Xu Linxia lived happily with her wife and daughter.

[Why are the ones who only pretended to divorce allowed on this show?]

[Xu Linxia, take your wife and kid and get out of here, okay?]

[You two, enough with this grand display of affection! You don't belong here. Turn right at the door and head to the Annual Spoiling-Your-Wife Gala!]

[Bonus Scene]

Moonlight lay hazy as a warm beam fell across the rippling bathwater.

Qin Xuran climbed around Xu Linxia's neck, her red lips blowing a rose petal off Xu Linxia's chest.

"How about we get remarried? The baby keeps saying she misses you and crying when you're not around." Qin Xuran's eyes shimmered as she gave Xu Linxia's earlobe an awkward little kiss.

Suddenly, Qin Xuran's vision spun. Xu Linxia tipped up her chin and kissed her soft lips. The word "yes" melted into the gentle sound of the water.

"Xu Linxia, only after you left did I realize what a fool I was. I miss you so much."
