After Agreeing to Go on a Parenting Show With My Omega Ex-Girlfriend – Chapter 67

Why Did Jiejie Suddenly Kiss Me?

Taotao, after all, was only three years old; her emotions came and went quickly.

Under Yu Luo’s comfort, she gradually recovered her usual lively appearance, only she still lingered in her mommy’s embrace, unwilling to leave.

“I don’t want to not be able to find Mommy,” she said in a soft voice.

Yu Luo lowered her eyes, meeting the pure and clear gaze of the daughter in her arms.

She didn’t quite understand why Taotao was so fixated on the issue of 「not being able to find」 her.

It was just like how sometimes, when Qi Song would repeatedly say, “I miss you so much,” until her eyes rimmed with red, she couldn’t help but become lost in the helpless, pitiful, yet profound emotions that were revealed.

A part of her heart sank slightly, and Yu Luo slowed her breathing, only able to somewhat clumsily use her own warmth to comfort the two people she held at the tip of her heart as much as possible.

“Knock knock.”

The door to the room was knocked, and a staff member reminded them that the livestream was about to begin.

The tranquil atmosphere in the room was thus broken. Qi Song and Taotao simultaneously and unwillingly pulled themselves off of Yu Luo.

Yu Luo reached out both hands and lightly ruffled the tops of their heads, just like she was comforting two little puppies she had raised.

She said gently, “Alright, I’m right here, okay.”

Having already discussed with the program team in advance that they would not be going out this morning, the staff members brought the livestreaming equipment to the room. After some simple adjustments, the livestream quickly began.

The number of people in the livestream room soared, and in the blink of an eye, the bullet comments had already filled the screen.

Yu Luo held Taotao on her lap, confirmed that she was in the shot, and only then did she casually glance at the bullet comments a few times.

The words floating by were all very normal at first: confessions of love, people shipping the couple¹, and praising the baby for being cute.

It’s just that it was unknown what had happened—from a certain moment, the screen was suddenly flooded with a large number of bullet comments related to Li Zhen.

【What are your two’s thoughts on the Li Zhen matter?】

【Laughing to death, the way that scumbag looked so pathetic when he discovered his own career had overturned² mid-livestream, his face turned green】

【Li Zhen really plays around, ah, and he still has the nerve to talk about others in private, no class】

…

Yu Luo tilted her head and exchanged a glance with Qi Song, both seeing the surprise in the other’s eyes.

As they were in the middle of a livestream, it was inconvenient for the two of them to openly take out their phones to eat melon³. They could only watch the bullet comments with a calm and composed expression, coming to a full understanding of the matter through the narrations of enthusiastic netizens.

It turned out that a well-known puppy⁴ in the industry had revealed during a livestream: the night before last, Li Zhen had taken a group of young and handsome male Omegas and held a 「multi-person gathering」.

A puppy, using unknown methods, had infiltrated the gathering and used a hidden phone to record the absurd scene—

The newly-crowned Film Emperor⁵, who had always flaunted his persona as a family-oriented, good Alpha, was in a debauched party, hugging men with disheveled clothes and dancing.

This video was livestreamed in its entirety by the puppy.

It was said that toward the end of the exposé livestream, the livestream room was banned on the grounds of obscenity and pornography, and the puppy was also summoned to the station⁶.

But the effect had already been achieved—Li Zhen’s previous 「good man」 image collapsed, stirring up sighs and curses everywhere.

Furthermore, when a wall is falling, everyone gives it a push⁷; someone took the opportunity to expose that Li Zhen had spoken insolently about other artists while privately flirting with them.

In the voice chat, Li Zhen’s voice was tinged with drunkenness as he brazenly and unreservedly spoke his mind:

“With looks like Yu Luo’s and Qi Song’s, you can tell with one glance that they aren’t the type to be devoted and family-oriented; they definitely mess around on their own on the outside. Who are they putting on that sweet act for?”

“……They want me to make a guest appearance in a drama starring Qi Song, is she even worthy? She definitely has a leg⁸ with Director Li in private. Director Li is also morally bankrupt; he’s almost fifty years old and is still being seduced by a young, beautiful O.”

…

“Knock knock.” The room door was knocked.

Qi Song got up to open the door and saw a staff member saying with an awkward expression, “Teacher Qi, there’s been a bit of a problem with the guests. The content of the bullet comments might become uncontrollable as public opinion ferments, so the program team suggests that you suspend the livestream.”

Qi Song was slightly startled; the first thing she thought of was the 「recording time」 that Yu Luo was concerned about.

Therefore, she didn’t immediately agree, but instead turned back to look at Yu Luo inquiringly, worried that the amount of time wasn’t enough.

The instant their eyes met, it was as if their thoughts immediately connected.

Yu Luo shook her head at Qi Song, signaling with a reassuring gaze: It’s enough.

Only then did Qi Song turn around and say to the staff member, “Okay, then I’ll have to trouble you to take the livestreaming equipment away.”

Yu Luo’s gaze fell on the young woman’s graceful back.

Qi Song clearly didn’t understand for the moment why she cared about the 「amount of time」, yet she still kept it firmly in mind, even starting to care about it along with her—just as she had clearly never asked about Taotao’s arrival, yet had already fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother in every matter, and loved the house and its crow⁹.

Such unconditional tolerance and devotion all stemmed from a pure and ardent love.

Yu Luo raised a hand to prop up her chin, quietly gazing at the doorway, the light in her eyes like a brushing spring breeze. In this instant, her mood became full and relaxed because of this insignificant detail before her.

Perhaps after their reunion, she had never been lonely again.

The words 「Li Zhen’s house collapsed¹⁰」 occupied the top of Weibo’s trending list, sweeping through the hot topics of various marketing accounts¹¹.

Because of the audio from that chat log, Director Li was innocently implicated in the house-collapsing incident. As someone who had always been on the front lines of internet surfing, she humorously replied to some netizens’ comments as a clarification.

According to the information revealed in those replies, combined with some picture-accompanied revelations from enthusiastic netizens, someone said—

【What, you expect a wife-treasure woman, who needs her dear wife to accompany her alone to an audition and who then cuddles with her wife in the biting autumn wind for half the day after the audition is over, to go out and 「mess around」?】

【Laughing to death, I already thought Qi Song was a huge wife-treasure from watching the variety show, I didn’t expect her to be even more of a wife-treasure in private】

Somehow, after a round of deep digging, some netizens also discovered that Li Zhen and Qi Song already had bad blood several years ago.

It was said that at that time, Qi Song was only eighteen or nineteen years old and had participated in an audition for one of Director Li’s dramas. As a competitor, Li Zhen spread the rumor everywhere that 「Qi Song is a normal person pretending to be an Alpha」, and only stopped after being struck down by a certain big boss with the surname Yu.

But this news was too vague, so whether it was true or false could not be known.

A leaking roof meets with continuous night rain¹². Besides the multi-person gathering incident, Li Zhen’s illicit affair with Director Jiang was also exposed, and immediately after, someone else came forward with evidence to report him for large-scale tax evasion…

Li Zhen had already become a joke in the entertainment circle.

Naturally, Li Zhen’s family terminated their contract with 《Happy Moments》 and temporarily withdrew from the variety show’s recording.

To have collapsed so suddenly, so earth-shatteringly, and so thoroughly was obviously premeditated long ago.

Qi Song propped up her chin and tilted her head to look at Yu Luo.

When she wasn’t smiling, the woman’s clear and cold features held a bit more noble aloofness, just like the moon at the edge of the sky, bright and pure.

“What are you looking at me for?”

Yu Luo lightly raised an eyebrow at her, and a hint of mischievousness faintly emerged from within that purity. “I was only acting as an enthusiastic passerby and provided a tiny little bit of evidence, that’s all.”

Qi Song smiled. “I guessed.”

“I’ve had that evidence for a long time…” Yu Luo said softly. “I specially waited for you to come back before using it. I wanted to let you see it with your own eyes, to relieve some of that old, stale anger.”

“Wait for me to come back?” Qi Song immediately caught the key point.

What was this talk of 「coming back」? When had she ever left?

Yu Luo was slightly startled. The tips of her eyelashes fluttered lightly, and a trace of regret flashed through the depths of her eyes.

“Could it be that I left, mmph…” Qi Song’s words were blocked in her mouth by Yu Luo.

The woman’s lips pressed over somewhat anxiously, giving her a peck.

Qi Song took a slightly deeper breath. She vaguely guessed that 「coming back」 was perhaps also something that was inconvenient for Yu Luo to state clearly. Therefore, she considerately avoided the important and focused on the trivial, deliberately teasing with the appearance of having been taken advantage of:

“Why did Jiejie have to suddenly kiss me?”

Yu Luo gazed into Qi Song’s eyes, knowing that the other party had secretly conceded for the countless time—she had chosen, without hesitation, not to question further, purely because she had sensed her own panic.

Thinking of this, Yu Luo’s heart felt a slight pang, but her mouth responded cooperatively, “If I want to kiss you, I’ll kiss you. Do I have to pick a special day for it?”

After speaking, she turned around as if nothing had happened. “I’m going to see how the cub’s afternoon nap is going—”

Her arm was suddenly gripped by a warm, soft palm, and a pulling force immediately followed, forcing Yu Luo to turn back around.

Before she could react, her chin was irresistibly lifted, and then her lips were bitten, a momentary, sharp pain.

That person, seemingly still not satisfied, moved to her neck, the tips of her teeth pressing down for another bite.

“Hiss…” Yu Luo’s eyes instantly fogged over, and she tilted her head back slightly.

After biting her, Qi Song raised her arms and held her very tightly, burying her head in the crook of her shoulder and sighing almost inaudibly, “You have too many secrets, Jiejie.”

She could choose not to ask about any of them, and she could always wait patiently.

But for everyone, the unknown is something that inspires fear. And what Qi Song feared was not the sense of instability brought on by the current blankness, but that Yu Luo wouldn’t be able to bear it.

In every one of Yu Luo’s flustered moments, in every gaze that wanted to speak but couldn’t, in every plea of 「wait for me a little longer」, Qi Song was very worried that she would fall into the loneliness of shouldering everything by herself.

“I’m not blaming you… My heart just aches for you,” Qi Song said in a hoarse voice.

At the same time, she also blamed herself for why, after so much time had passed, she still hadn’t been able to completely retrieve the lost parts. The fragmented memory pieces she had picked up during this time were simply not enough to fill the boundless void.

In the warmth of the tight embrace, the color of Yu Luo’s eyes deepened slightly.

She bit her lower lip, raised her hand, and lightly stroked Qi Song’s head.

“But you only need to love me, and that’s enough,” Yu Luo said seriously, slowly closing her eyes. “Because I have always felt that effortlessly, I have never been lonely.”

When she woke up the next day, Taotao’s cold had already healed, and she couldn’t wait to go find her Youyou-jiejie to play.

Li Zhen’s family had already withdrawn from the program, so only three families remained while enjoying breakfast at the mountain villa.

Without that family of three, Li Zhen’s lecturing—born from the belief that everyone wanted to learn something from him—was gone, as was the clamor from the doted-on Li Ge, who would get angry and noisy anytime and anywhere.

With only women left at the dining table, the atmosphere was obviously a bit more relaxed and at ease. The harmony and warmth as they chatted was not like that of colleagues forced together by a program, but more like three pairs of familiar couple friends who had brought their children out for a gathering.

It actually fit the program’s name, 《Happy Moments》, somewhat.

After breakfast, the program team announced today’s arrangements—

“Due to the suspension of yesterday’s livestream midway through, the program’s schedule was temporarily adjusted, which resulted in the families not being able to fully enjoy themselves at the mountain villa in the morning. Therefore, this morning will be offered as compensation. Please feel free to enjoy yourselves.”

The arrangements had just been announced, and before Qi Song had a chance to discuss with Yu Luo how they should spend their time, a staff member came over to speak with them in a low voice:

“Teachers, it’s like this. The owner of the mountain villa has a daughter who is currently four months old. She has always been very well-behaved and doesn’t cry or fuss much. Because you teachers took a day off during the second episode at the inn, you missed that episode’s extra recording, and the program’s fans have been continuously expressing their regret in the comments section. So, we would like to invite your family to look after the baby for half an hour, to make up for the fans’ regret with this extra recording. What do you think?”

The two adults hadn’t even opened their mouths to speak when Taotao’s eyes lit up. “A little sister!”

The staff member smiled and said, “That’s right, she’s much smaller than Taotao. Do you want to go see the little sister?”

Taotao blinked with a bit of novelty, then nodded, raising her eyes to look at her two parents with a pleading gaze.

Qi Song received the signal, lowered her head to whisper in Yu Luo’s ear, and said in a relaxed tone, “Why don’t we go? This is already the fifth episode; it might not be convenient to do a make-up recording later on.”

“Besides, you have experience raising Taotao. The two of us together should be able to handle a four-month-old baby who doesn’t like to cry or fuss with ease.”

Yu Luo, however, seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

A trace of conflict flashed in her eyes, but in the end, she still said in a low voice, “Let’s just forget it, shall we? The child is too young…”

Amidst Qi Song’s slightly startled expression, she lowered her eyelashes and said hesitantly, “When Taotao was that little… I didn’t raise her personally.”
