After Agreeing to Go on a Parenting Show With My Omega Ex-Girlfriend – Chapter 56

Something a little fresh.

Two groups of families had already arrived at the beach assembly point. Seeing Yu Luo’s family come over, the guests all waved their hands to say hello.

Ren Zhi said: “Your family’s parent-child swimsuits are so cute.”

Hearing the swimsuits being praised, Taotao’s big eyes brightened, and she happily nodded her head.

Yu Luo stroked her head and said with a light smile, “Taotao chose them.”

“Oh my, Taotao is really great,” Ren Zhi praised with a beaming smile, beckoning to Taotao.

Taotao happily ran over and took Youyou-Jiejie’s hand.

Ren Zhi jokingly tempted, “How about coming to our house to be our daughter? You can play with Youyou-Jiejie every day…”

She had not yet finished speaking when she saw Taotao already leading Youyou back, her other hand clingily holding onto Yu Luo.

Opposite them were two adults and two children, looking exactly like a family of four.

“……” Ren Zhi was speechless and choked up.

“Wife, our daughter ran off with another family’s cub without even a backward glance, aren’t you going to do something about it?” she wailed to Jiang Yin, feigning pitifulness.

After being pinched on the waist, she behaved.

Qi Song’s eyelashes trembled lightly, and she could not help but whisper jokingly in Yu Luo’s ear:

“If Zaizai¹ grows up and really has yuanfen² with Youyou, I’d have a bit of a headache with that kind of doll marriage.”

Yu Luo blinked, and a gentle smile graced the corners of her lips.

Although what kind of yuanfen Taotao would have after growing up was her own business, chatting about this kind of seemingly foreseeable future always made her feel happy and secure.

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a headache or not.” She murmured softly, “I just hope…”

Hope everything can develop smoothly and steadily, so that there really is that day.

Seeing Yu Luo swallow the second half of her sentence, Qi Song could not help but ask curiously, “Hope for what?”

“……Hope the underwear dries quickly,” Yu Luo said leisurely.

Qi Song was slightly startled.

She had a gut feeling that this was not what Yu Luo had wanted to say just now.

Yu Luo was actually not ungenerous in expressing her feelings, and she rarely spoke vaguely during normal conversations. If she did not say it, it was probably because it truly could not be said for the time being.

But her appetite had still been whetted, and Qi Song could not help but mutter, “Even if it dries, so what? It will get wet again soon anyway.”

Yu Luo’s eyelashes fanned lightly, and she immediately raised her eyes to look at her meaningfully. Her clear and cool face, when without a smile, was somewhat distant and cold.

That gaze might have had some deterrent force to outsiders, but Qi Song knew that on a certain matter, she was fundamentally a paper tiger³, so she was not the least bit afraid.

She raised a hand to hug her and laughed in a low voice, “Why are you looking at me like that? I’m not afraid.”

“Looking at you, I only think you’re pretty and cute.” She tilted her head and intimately nuzzled Yu Luo’s ear.

“……” Yu Luo was most susceptible to this kind of puppy-style directness and enthusiasm, and so she helplessly broke her composure⁴.

“Alright.” A soft-hearted smile surfaced in her eyes, but she still could not help but instruct, “Don’t nuzzle my ear.”

“Oh.” Qi Song’s movement paused, and she said bluntly, “I forgot Jiejie has been especially sensitive recently… I’ll nuzzle it at night then.”

After speaking, she neatly pulled away, standing perfectly straight.

The smile in Yu Luo’s eyes stiffened slightly.

Someone is getting carried away⁵ and needs to be dealt with.

Once the last family had arrived, the guests put on their waterproof mics and officially began recording the afternoon’s task.

“Next, there will be a total of three games. After each game, the program team will provide a menu, and the guests will order dishes according to their ranking. No dish can be chosen more than once. After the three games are over, the dishes everyone has ordered will be your respective dinners for today.”

“The first game is sea ball passing. The program team has already sectioned off a small area in the shallow water by the shore. The seawater temperature is suitable right now. The four families will compete two against two. You need to get the ball into your opponent’s basket.”

Taotao had been taken swimming by Yu Luo before, so she was not afraid of water. After putting on her swimming ring, she could not wait to get into the sea.

The opponents in the first round happened to be Ren Zhi’s family.

The referee gave the signal, and the situation instantly became intense.

Yu Luo had not eaten much for lunch, and Qi Song was intent on fighting for a sumptuous dinner for the family. She called out to Taotao, “Zaizai, pass the ball to Mama.”

Taotao, wearing a little yellow duck swimming ring, paddled her arms vigorously in the water, splashing water everywhere.

But after a few seconds, she was still in the same place.

Turning her head to look, she saw Ren Zhi pulling the tail of her little yellow duck.

Taotao opened her mouth innocently and hugged the ball in her arms a little tighter, “Auntie Ren…”

“Mama, how could you do that,” Youyou shouted from behind.

Ren Zhi’s hand loosened, and she pouted, “The elbow turns outwards⁶.”

The ball reached Qi Song’s hands. She was just about to sprint towards the basket Ren Zhi’s family was defending, but Yu Luo hooked her arm. “Wait a moment.”

She paused and turned to look at Yu Luo. “What’s wrong, Jiejie?”

“You…” Yu Luo raised a hand to turn off her mic and said in a small voice, “There’s a red mark on your back.”

She had not seen it when applying sunscreen just now. Now that they were in the water, the fabric on her back had shrunk slightly outwards with her swimming movements, revealing the marks she had scratched on Qi Song’s back yesterday when she could not bear it.

Qi Song’s breathing hitched slightly.

“So you just need to paddle⁷,” Yu Luo instructed softly, her cheeks slightly hot. “I’ll do it.”

Qi Song had no choice but to lie flat⁸ and start paddling unobtrusively.

Her gaze was always on Yu Luo, watching the woman’s graceful and charming figure stretch out even more while swimming.

As she watched, entranced, a slight burning sensation suddenly flared in her mind as a memory surfaced——

A similar warm afternoon sun, a similar seaside.

The surroundings were silent and empty, with only the low cries of seagulls and the soft lapping of waves against the shore.

She and Yu Luo were swimming and playing freely and happily in a deep and clear blue. Later, they seemed to be extremely tired, and just embraced and kissed quietly in the sea, soaking wet all over.

“Jiejie, today is our two-year anniversary, eh.”

After they finished kissing, she kissed Yu Luo’s ear, not yet fully satisfied amidst her slightly rapid panting. “How about we try something a little fresh as a commemoration?”

“What fresh thing?”

Perhaps they had already tried too many things, so Yu Luo could not think of how much fresher it could get, and thus asked with some curiosity.

“Over there on the shore stand a few giant rocks. The empty space between them blocks the view from the outside, you can only see a bit of the vast sea. It’s very safe…”

“……” Yu Luo’s lips mumbled a bit, as if she had not expected that ‘fresh’ could be this fresh.

The base of her ears grew slightly hot, and she said softly, “That’s not very good, what if…”

The points of confusion and hesitation she listed were answered one by one, clearly and forcefully; Qi Song had obviously come prepared.

“How long have you been thinking about this?” Yu Luo could not help but pinch her ear.

“I noticed it the time before last, and investigated it last time.” Qi Song let her pinch, answering honestly in a small voice, “Last month when I was blowing out my birthday candles, I also secretly made a wish for it.”

“……” Yu Luo bit her lip.

Without answering whether it was okay or not, she led her ashore.

Qi Song followed her pitifully. Seeing that Yu Luo was walking in the direction opposite to the giant rocks, she thought this counted as a rejection.

This kind of thing should be mutually agreed upon and desired. If Yu Luo was unwilling, she would absolutely not force it.

So she quickly felt relieved and put the matter to the back of her mind.

As a result, when dusk spread and romantic pink clouds entwined in the sky, Yu Luo led her back.

“……I think since we’re going to do it, we should pick the time when the scenery is most beautiful,” the woman said to her, her face slightly abashed and her ears red.

At this very moment, several years of time, and countless hazy and unclear changes and secrets, already separated them from that day.

And in her memory, Qi Song was as if she were there in person⁹.

She clearly saw the boundless, brilliant pink of the sky, and the deep blue sea surface sparkling under the reflection of the pink light, leisurely rippling in the evening wind.

The forbearing yet pleased voice of the woman before her was enveloped in the sound of the tide, rising and falling along with an obscure trembling.

Later, Yu Luo’s whole body went soft, and she was carried away on her back.

The sky had already completely darkened. The woman’s warm breath sprayed on her ear as she intermittently responded to her sweet nothings, her voice slightly hoarse.

On the fine sand of the beach, a string of deep footprints was left behind, gradually swept away by the waves.

——“We won.”

The scenery before her eyes suddenly went out of focus. When her gaze focused again, what she saw was Yu Luo’s flushed pink cheeks after the exertion. Amidst the rise and fall of her slightly rapid breathing, seawater rolled down her skin, exceptionally vibrant with life.

The woman’s eyes and brows curved slightly, beautifully vivid, just like that day.

Before she could react, Qi Song had already reached out and hugged Yu Luo tightly.

“Hm?” Yu Luo thought this was a celebratory hug and could not help but curve her lips and hug her back.

Qi Song closed her eyes and clingily nuzzled Yu Luo’s wet cheek.

The suddenly recalled happiness and joy caused a warm feeling to spread through her heart. It was clearly just a wisp of a distant memory fragment, yet she felt as if she had just personally experienced it and was still in its afterglow, savoring it endlessly.

Seeing Qi Song remain silent for a long time, as if some emotion was rising and falling in her heart, the smile on Yu Luo’s lips could not help but fade slightly. She asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”

Qi Song shook her head with a guilty conscience.

She found the truth somewhat difficult to articulate: she was clearly standing here perfectly fine and proper, yet because of a sudden, heated memory, she had abruptly fallen into a state of post-coital clinginess.

“Nothing, I’m very happy,” she explained, her voice slightly hoarse.

“You guys only won one round, is it necessary to celebrate for so long?”

Ren Zhi feigned 「envy」 and said with a smile, making a harsh threat, “Just you wait, we might meet again in the later rounds. Next time, it’s not certain who will win or lose.”

“Mama, are you going to pull Taotao-meimei’s swimming ring again?” Youyou said calmly.

“……” Ren Zhi was choked up for a moment, and muttered, helpless and aggrieved, “Why must you undermine¹⁰ your own mother.”

Truly, a grown daughter cannot be kept¹¹.

After this interruption from Ren Zhi, the secret emotions from just now gradually dissipated.

With a composed expression, Qi Song went ashore with Yu Luo and Taotao, taking the thick bath towels handed over by the program team.

Seeing Taotao wiping the water droplets off her body herself and taking good care of herself, Qi Song turned with a relieved heart to take care of the adult.

She held Yu Luo’s arm and kneaded it gently. “Tired?”

Yu Luo gently pulled her arm back from her palm and said in a subtle tone, “Not tired, you don’t need to massage it for me.”

Qi Song was startled, then immediately understood. With a certain person’s sensitivity, even a massage was probably not okay.

Her throat moved slightly, and the emotions stirred up from recalling that passionate and bold scene seemed to surface again.

She could not help but raise her eyes to look around, searching her field of vision, but could not find the pile of giant rocks from her memory.

It’s probably in a place rarely frequented by people, otherwise they wouldn’t have dared to be like that…

“Jiejie.”

As she thought, she could not help but mention in a low voice by Yu Luo’s ear, “The giant rocks…”

Yu Luo’s breathing instantly hitched.

Seeing the woman press her lips together, the base of her ears clearly flushing pink, Qi Song’s heart could not help but shrink slightly.

This reaction was so swift and obvious, she suspected that after coming to the seaside today, Yu Luo had also secretly savored that memory.

“Want to go relive it?” she then asked softly.

The author has something to say:

The giant rocks will be written in detail; we will go there after this variety show ends. Those who know, know.

Also, will all the little cuties who missed Chapter 53 please quickly go find the message I left in the comment section of Chapter 53.

Also, also, tomorrow I am returning to my hometown for a week. I need to drive for a day, so I won’t be able to write. And while I’m in my hometown, I will have to be busy with various family matters. I will write whenever I can find time to type, but the updates will definitely be unstable. I will compensate with a long ‘giant rock’ chapter after I return (tears).
