Scum A with a Sweet Black Lotus O – Chapter 152
by Little PandaRose-Colored: The Main Story Continues
Little One
May you be happy, always and forever.
The production team of 《Traveling with Kids》 recently set their sights on their second imperial granddaughter.
《Traveling with Kids》 was a variety show—a kids’ variety show1—that Fu Chaoyun had spearheaded and planned in the past.
Along with it were a dating show and a talent show. All three programs became explosive hits upon their debut and stood the test of time. More than five years had passed, and the shows were already in their fifth season, yet they remained fresh and popular, having launched many people into stardom.
Who would have thought that Fu Chaoyun had merely pointed a finger casually back then?
It made people sigh with admiration; Fu Chaoyun probably had some “Godmother of Entertainment2” genes in her.
Her withdrawal from the entertainment industry these years, not even working behind the scenes, was a cause for regret for so many, especially the folks at Xingdong Entertainment Company. Whether old-timers or newcomers, they all immensely missed the days when Director Fu led them to success.
Oh.
For the newcomers, there was probably one more thing—
“I submitted my resume to Xingdong back then just to get some up-close shipping fuel3! Why isn’t CEO Fu at the company anymore!!!”
The senior employee beside them could only pat their shoulder sympathetically, saying, “Your news is way too outdated.”
“Huh?”
Fu Li happened to overhear this as he passed by.
Two months ago, due to his excellent behavior in prison, his sentence was repeatedly reduced, and he was released early after just over five years. As an exchange for Fu Chaoyun helping him with money back then, he needed to work for the Fu Corporation for ten years after his release.
It sounded like capitalist exploitation, but wasn’t this also another form of help?
He had gone to prison before even finishing university. In five years, times had changed rapidly. As someone with a criminal record and not much education, his job search was bound to be difficult. Finding a job at all was already quite an achievement.
Ironically, the person he had tried to frame back then was Fu Chaoyun. In the end, it was the victim who gave him a hand. Although Fu Chaoyun said it was for profit and also valued his glib tongue and thick skin for sales, still…
He should still be grateful.
She had repaid resentment with kindness.
Five years had worn away much of Fu Li’s complexity and cunning. Nowadays, he just wanted to work diligently and pay off his debts.
Due to the long period of inactivity, Fu Li was temporarily placed at Xingdong Entertainment after his release, to adapt to the outside world as quickly as possible while also striving to achieve something.
Fu Li secretly resolved, after hearing only those few sentences, to throw himself back into endless work.
As mentioned before, Fu Chaoyun had already been away from Xingdong for many years.
With children born on both sides, now five or six years old, Madam Fu had finally successfully retired.
Congratulations!
Unlike ordinary elders who looked forward to a house full of children and grandchildren, Madam Fu had no expectations for a second child. Although she had two daughters who could support each other, what if they both got pregnant at the same time again?
The old CEO being rehired after retirement… really, really… never again!!!
After a misunderstanding was cleared up, Fu Lingfeng and Wen Wan’s relationship was very stable. The elder sister had also taken on the burden of inheriting the family business. Fu Chaoyun couldn’t just be slacking off4 all the time, so she usually helped out in a subordinate role.
The former Young CEO Fu had returned to her rightful place. Fu Lingfeng, now over thirty, was steady and mature, with outstanding achievements, and could formally be called CEO Fu. However…
Looking at her younger sister who occasionally skipped work to accompany her wife, Fu Lingfeng couldn’t help but feel a trace of jealousy, even secretly pondering how to exploit her more and add more responsibilities to her shoulders.
Alright.
Young CEO Fu had returned and grown, but after tasting the beauty of a harmonious married life, her dedicated heart gradually hid itself, and she began to show a tendency to lean towards Fu Chaoyun’s ways.
But that wouldn’t quite work either. Wen Wan now had her own career, which was in a period of ascent and development these past two years.
As a partner, one should offer full support.
Thus, the children were mostly left with the two elders. Poor, elegant, and noble Grandma Fu, Madam Fu, clearly retired, still couldn’t escape the fate of looking after children.
Gu Huaiyi actually quite liked children.
What else could be done?
Take care of them, of course!
The two little ones were too adorable. Perhaps it was due to the affection grandparents have for their grandchildren, but even the stern Grandma Fu would occasionally have a smile on her face.
The two little ones were eight months apart in age, both cute, lovable, and soft little girls. Perhaps it was in the Fu family’s genes to have daughters.
The older one was called Nuonuo5, the younger one Jiaojiao6.
Little Jiaojiao is five years old this year!
This age was already a bit old for the “《XX Three-and-a-Half Years Old》” type of cute baby stories7, but in reality, a soft little thing not even reaching an adult’s waist was still extremely cute.
Jiaojiao was a nickname. As the child of Fu Chaoyun and Pei Xuezhi, and their only child, Jiaojiao’s formal name was Pei Zhaoxing8.
The name didn’t really have any special meaning; Pei Xuezhi chose it. As Fu Chaoyun’s child, she hoped she could twinkle like a star. However, that surname…
Yes, the child took Pei Xuezhi’s surname.
This was decided by Fu Chaoyun.
In Fu Chaoyun’s words, Pei Xuezhi had a very hard time carrying the child, so the child should naturally take her surname. At the same time, since she was willing to stay in this world, she should also leave some trace of herself.
Just as Pei Xuezhi often wanted to tie Fu Chaoyun down, Fu Chaoyun felt the same way.
To the two elders, it was a different story. They were very open-minded, had no objections, and didn’t want to interfere in the younger generation’s affairs. Fu Lingfeng, however, looked at Fu Chaoyun rather strangely after learning about this.
Because Nuonuo’s surname was Fu.
Wen Wan didn’t care about these things. It was just that when the child was a bit older, Fu Lingfeng pestered her for a second child.
“The second one, if born, will take your surname.”
Wen Wan was truly both exasperated and amused. The Alphas of the Fu family probably all had a bit of childishness ingrained in their bones.
After the misunderstanding was resolved, Wen Wan became much bolder, no longer like a wronged little wife. She even dared to push Fu Lingfeng. “Isn’t giving birth exhausting!”
Her voice was still soft and gentle, lacking any deterrent force. Little Nuonuo’s personality actually resembled hers, but this outburst still managed to cow Fu Lingfeng.
The Alpha thought for a moment. “Forget it, one is enough.”
“We can just change her name later if worst comes to worst.”
“Change it to what?”
Since her younger sister had taken the step first, and with two grandchildren, and a family business to inherit, one of them had to retain the Fu surname. Fu Lingfeng could only settle for the next best thing.
“…”
After a moment of silence, Wen Wan felt she could still try to salvage the situation for her child. “I think Nuonuo probably wouldn’t want to bear such a name for her entire future.”
Fu Lingfeng was very domineering. “It’s not up to her whether she wants to or not.”
Then.
The domineering Alpha was beaten up by her own Omega, the kind where she couldn’t fight back at all.
So lively.jpg
On the other side, Fu Chaoyun had planned from the start to have only one child.
Jiaojiao was a good baby. She barely made a fuss in Pei Xuezhi’s womb, quiet and well-behaved. But there were always unexpected moments. During that time, even with Fu Chaoyun’s meticulous care, Pei Xuezhi had two or three bouts of morning sickness so severe she could barely eat.
Especially around the eighth or ninth month, the Omega’s limbs remained slender, making the weight of her abdomen even more pronounced. Sometimes, she would have leg cramps late at night, and Fu Chaoyun would wake up to massage them.
Not to mention the emotional instability during pregnancy.
Fu Chaoyun, as always, calmly took care of Pei Xuezhi, understanding her sensitivity and tendency to overthink, without a single complaint. But the physical discomfort was undeniable.
—For this, thanks were also due to Madam Fu’s hard work.
Later, as Pei Xuezhi’s due date approached, it was Fu Chaoyun whose emotions became increasingly anxious and uneasy.
She thought of many, many things. Even knowing that medical standards were advanced these days, she would still be frightened by her own fantasies, and then start blaming herself for such random, inauspicious thoughts…
When it came to people one cared about, even the most rational person would become superstitious and start praying to gods and Buddhas.
However, on the actual day of delivery, Jiaojiao’s birth process was smooth and quick. The baby had been a considerate soul since she was an embryo and didn’t torment her mother for long. Pei Xuezhi also recovered very well afterward.
The physiology of Omegas in this world was indeed very suitable for gestation and reproduction, but everything that happened that day still frightened the Alpha. Afterward, she replayed the scenes of that day in her mind every single day.
Contraception could inevitably be imperfect; otherwise, where would Jiaojiao have come from?
So, when Pei Xuezhi’s body had recovered a bit and no longer needed Fu Chaoyun’s constant companionship, the Alpha independently visited an operating room.
Pei Xuezhi only found out about this several months later.
It was their first intimate moment after her recovery. Only afterward did she remember they hadn’t used any protection and was about to take measures.
【Actually, there’s no need.】The system’s voice suddenly rang out.
It had previously maintained a profile as quiet as a chicken, fearing a post-event reckoning—”fortune,” “world will,” “structural collapse”… it couldn’t care less about any of that!
Staying alive was the most important thing!
At that time, the system wholeheartedly hoped the two would be even sweeter, and please, please don’t remember it!
However, amidst its trepidation, it still worried. The Scum A was dealt with, but the Scum A itself was a derivative problem that only appeared after the world’s fortune transfer became unstable. But Pei Xuezhi still remained in this world!
Even though some fortune had returned to Fu Chaoyun’s body through their interactions, it wasn’t completely absorbed, always remaining a hidden danger.
Outsiders were rarely acknowledged by the world itself.
However, with the birth of the baby, this problem that had troubled the system for so long was suddenly solved.
As the child of the two protagonists, little Jiaojiao was practically the new favored daughter of Heaven, born with the inherited fortune of both her mothers. The world Fu Chaoyun was in was still very harmonious.
How could it let the new generation’s favored daughter of Heaven be motherless?
Although due to the peculiarities of the ABO world, Jiaojiao had two mothers, still—
Not one less!
The system finally stopped trembling with fear and dared to come out of its shell. It suddenly switched its bound host and started living a retired life ahead of schedule.
Usually, it spent more time playing with Jiaojiao. Occasional communications with the two parents were also about the child. Its sudden utterance now made Pei Xuezhi pause.
“What?”
【There won’t be a second child.】The system said, 【Fu Chaoyun has already been sterilized. You two will only have Jiaojiao.】
It even sounded quite regretful as it said this.
Fortune and the world complemented each other. If there could be one more child of destiny, wouldn’t this world’s development and upgrade be much faster?
A pity.
Now there wouldn’t be~
Pei Xuezhi was stunned for a good while. It wasn’t until Fu Chaoyun returned that her hands climbed up, tangling with this Alpha who belonged only to her in another round of amorous entanglement.
The Omega had recovered extremely well, almost no different from before her pregnancy, just that certain parts had become even more voluptuous and alluring.
Afterward, the Omega’s slender, pale fingertips brushed over the gland on the Alpha’s nape, which was still warm from passion.
“Does it still hurt?”
Fu Chaoyun instantly understood that Pei Xuezhi knew. She didn’t mind, though. Capturing the Omega’s hand, she brought it to her lips for a kiss. Fu Chaoyun smiled.
“It healed long ago.”
It was the truth, and more so, she didn’t want Pei Xuezhi to worry about it.
Both Alphas and Omegas were suitable for sterilization. Strictly speaking, Alphas, as the inseminating party, incurred less harm from such a surgery.
Right now, noticing Pei Xuezhi was still looking at her, Fu Chaoyun looked back, her amber eyes shimmering with a smile. She tilted her head, and this Alpha surprisingly appeared exceptionally charming.
“Is Zhizhi feeling sorry for me?”
“En.”
Not a shred of denial.
Fu Chaoyun pulled the person into her embrace and said playfully, “Since you feel sorry for me, then compensate me properly, okay?”
Pei Xuezhi’s dark eyes met hers. “Okay.”
…
The heat blurred the glass window behind the drawn curtains. The Omega’s voice could be faintly heard, intermittent, no longer as clear and melodious as before, but rather somewhat hoarse.
“Will it really not affect…?”
That aspect.
The Alpha’s voice was no less affected, yet it carried a hint of defiant arrogance.
“It! Won’t!!!”
Forget it.
Although the thought of not letting Zhizhi worry was correct, for the other party to dare make such baseless and damaging assumptions, then her taking a little interest… should be acceptable, right?
Perfectly reasonable, just as it should be.
…
Just upstairs and downstairs, the system, even though shielded, could guess what was happening inside.
【………】
It then looked at the child in front of it.
【Being an only child is great!】
Little Jiaojiao, only five years old and understanding nothing, blinked her large, bright eyes.
Ignorant and innocent.
Innocent, romantic, and pure.
Jiaojiao’s eyes were like Fu Chaoyun’s, a clear, transparent amber, like exquisite, top-grade liuli10.
Her facial features resembled Pei Xuezhi more, but the color of her eyes and her naturally curly hair were inherited from Fu Chaoyun.
And the reason Jiaojiao was given this name was because she herself was very… jiao (delicate/charming).
With a face so much like Pei Xuezhi’s, her personality was remarkably like Fu Chaoyun’s—very soft and cute, able to sweetly address anyone. This feeling was truly magical and interesting.
No wonder even the system was addicted to raising the child.
Moreover, the currently five-year-old Jiaojiao was not just sweet-mouthed; she had practically reached the point of being a smooth talker.
Upon meeting anyone, regardless of their age, she would call them “gege11” or “jiejie12“, emphasizing equal treatment. Compliments flowed freely from her mouth. A casual stroll outside would result in her two pockets being stuffed full by the time she returned.
Although she encountered some danger around one month old, Pei Xuezhi had been extremely protective of the child during the nearly nine months of gestation and after birth.
Sometimes, looking at the child’s face, so similar to her own when she was young, and the strong sense of incongruity when the child spoke or acted, Pei Xuezhi couldn’t help but turn back and ask the child’s other mommy.
“Were you like this when you were little too?”
Fu “Culprit” Chaoyun fell silent for a moment, as if reminiscing, or perhaps contemplating, with a hint of uncertainty.
“Probably not that exaggerated… right?”
“Really?”
“…”
Fu Chaoyun herself wasn’t sure.
In short, Pei Jiaojiao’s existence inexplicably damaged her Alpha mommy’s reputation!
As for that other little glutinous rice ball, Nuonuo, her personality was more like Wen Wan’s. Fu Lingfeng herself didn’t care much about these things, but according to Daddy Gu’s recollection, Fu Lingfeng was also quite soft and cute as a child. Hmm, it’s just unknown if she’ll turn into another domineering CEO when she grows up : )
…
The production team’s intentions eventually reached Fu Chaoyun’s ears.
She went directly to communicate with her own child. “Some uncles and aunties are inviting you to participate in a variety show. Do you want to go?”
Jiaojiao might be small and soft, but her mind was very sharp. Her knowledge reserves were surprisingly large, and at a young age, she already understood what a variety show meant.
A child’s eye size doesn’t change from birth. At this point, because her features hadn’t fully developed, her eyes looked exceptionally round and large, like a kitten’s.
The clear liuli suddenly lit up.
“Is Jiaojiao also going to find a wife?”
Fu Chaoyun: “…”
The little one suddenly hesitated, but being so young, the anticipation on her face was unconcealable. “If Jiaojiao finds a wife at this age, wouldn’t that be a little too young?”
“………”
Understood, yet not completely understood.
And understood a bit crookedly.
The little one somehow knew that her mommy and mama had met, fallen in love, and gotten married on a variety show. From then on, variety shows became “places to find a wife.”
Pei Xuezhi happened to hear their conversation and came over to pick up the child, helping to explain.
The little girl was very smart, and whatever she did, she had a tendency to get to the bottom of things. Therefore, Pei Xuezhi didn’t try to coax her like an ordinary child but gave a very detailed explanation, including the process, purpose, and the fact that appearing on the show would earn her a talent fee.
When it came to the child’s education, both parents were very attentive.
While Jiaojiao listened, she was also rua-ing13 Naonao14; little Naonao had just jumped into her arms.
Now it was Pei Xuezhi holding Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao holding Naonao, and Fu Chaoyun sat over, wrapping her arms around Pei Xuezhi’s waist from behind.
One holding another, very interesting.
The little kitty cat Naonao nestled in the child’s embrace. Five years had passed, and the once clingy kitty had become a mature and composed adult cat, concurrently serving as a part-time playmate and nanny for the child.
The little goldfish were also still around. With little Jiaojiao’s growth, play, and even fishing expeditions, new ones were occasionally brought back from the children’s amusement park. The school of fish had grown larger, and even the tank had been replaced with a bigger one to accommodate them.
The mature Naonao cat allowed the child to rua and stroke its fur. While inheriting Fu Chaoyun’s personality, Jiaojiao also inherited her biological mother’s cat-attracting attribute.
After understanding what a variety show was, the little one’s eyes darted around, clearly working her brain. Then, she raised her tender little radish-like paws.
“Agree, agree, Jiaojiao will go.”
“Are you sure?” Pei Xuezhi lowered her head and asked gently. Because the child’s personality was so much like Fu Chaoyun’s, Pei Xuezhi always showed an extra bit of tenderness towards her, with no trace of her past indecisiveness.
“Once you agree, you can’t go back on your word, okay?”
The little girl nodded again.
“Mainly, I want to appear on TV, to preserve more sweet moments of Mama and Mommy…”
Her voice trailed off, then rose again, a poorly concealed attempt.
“It’s, it’s not for the money.”
“…”
Fu Chaoyun and Pei Xuezhi looked at each other. Ultimately, Fu Chaoyun picked Jiaojiao up. Pei Xuezhi walked closer and gently scraped the little one’s nose.
When she chuckled, her dark eyes always held a gentle, sparkling light.
The little one was good in every way, except for her usual enthusiasm for earning and hoarding money. It was unknown who she took after in that regard…
【What’s wrong? What’s wrong?】
Ever since the child arrived, the system had upgraded from being “quiet as a chicken” to a doting grandmother figure who mindlessly pampered her granddaughter.
Had it also miraculously integrated and become a member of the family?
Perhaps it also had the sentiment of: this account is useless, so let’s start over with a smurf account : )
At this moment, it was still cheering enthusiastically.
【Our Jiaojiao is a favored daughter of Heaven! What’s wrong with having clear goals from a young age? She just has to be different from other children!】
【No problem, not a single problem at all—my child Jiaojiao has the makings of a Great Emperor16…】
Fu Chaoyun quickly covered the system’s “mouth,” stopping its impending torrent of praise.
On the day the variety show officially premiered, the live broadcast room was packed.
As early as five years ago, Fu Chaoyun had farsightedly proposed the format of live-streamed variety shows, which sufficiently satisfied the audience’s desire for participation. By now, broadcasting edited versions after live streaming had become the norm for variety show recordings.
Although the two had long since left the entertainment industry, they still had popularity online. One CP Super Topic after another rose and fell, but Chaoyun Muxue18 always stood there, unshakeable.
Who! Cares! That! The! Two! Are! A! Real! Married! Couple!
Even though they weren’t in the entertainment industry, the two would occasionally be photographed, and the pictures would be posted online, spreading more sweetness and adding new heat to this veteran CP station.
Moreover, not only did Fu Chaoyun leave behind three evergreen variety shows in the entertainment industry as a valuable “legacy,” but the TV drama for which Pei Xuezhi had participated as a historical consultant during a summer job also received continuous praise. There was also the movie she cameoed in; due to the uniqueness of its theme, although its box office didn’t explode when it was released, it still made a profit and had extremely high artistic value.
Pei Xuezhi’s glance back in that scene was aesthetically beautiful, leaving a deep impression on countless people.
At that time, when the movie was released, people who hadn’t watched the variety show even searched for her other works, predicting that Pei Xuezhi would inevitably become a huge star, a top-tier actress19 in the entertainment industry!
But before she could even become famous, this person had already retired from the industry.
Damn it!
And she even became someone else’s wife!!!
Also five years ago, after Pei Xuezhi was found to be pregnant and Fu Chaoyun’s marriage proposal was successful, the two began to prepare for their wedding.
Because they needed to conceal the pregnant belly and leave the best impression on her future partner, the wedding was organized somewhat hastily, but it was by no means perfunctory or shabby.
Neither of them had a high-profile personality. The wedding was not open to the public, no media were invited at all, and even among the Fu family’s business partners, only a few received invitations.
It could be said that it was only open to their respective relatives and friends, thus it wasn’t dubbed with any “wedding of the century” titles, nor were there reports about how many tens of millions the wedding dress cost, or how enormous the diamond ring at the wedding was…
Those were all merely worldly possessions.
This was their wedding, belonging only to them—this loving couple, future partners.
They hoped that when they looked back in the future, every picture, every frame would be a precious or sweet memory, not of some irrelevant people or stakeholders.
The wedding was secretly held on an absolutely private island. It seemed not to have caused much of a stir, but every friend fortunate enough to participate, in the snippets they revealed afterward, spoke of nothing but romance and happiness.
Similarly, those who had maliciously dug into their past, yet had to admit that this former CP, now married couple, was indeed well-matched, after recovering from the shock, joined everyone else in happily shipping the CP.
The Chaoyun Muxue Super Topic’s ability to remain active to this day was also thanks to everyone’s efforts!
Now that the live broadcast had started, the bullet comments were dense, even hurting one’s eyes from the clutter—
【Ahhh, I finally squeezed in!】
【Long time no see, these two actually have a day they return to the entertainment industry, and it’s a variety show again!】
【Back when Fu Chaoyun was planning it, did she already foresee this scene?】
【CEO Fu, was this also part of your plan? (doge head.jpg21)】
The camera work was very layered, as if it could speak, starting with a shot of the garden outside the villa.
Besides the Fu family estate, the two had their own small house, and the recording location for the show was chosen at this small home.
As the camera swept by, one could only see roses of various rich colors, including rare varieties like champagne roses and black roses. Looking out, it was a rose garden, full of love and romance, truly magnificent.
【Roses! Still roses! And black roses and champagne roses!!】
【Ahhh, I have the illusion of returning to the dating show era!】
【Wait, the weather here shouldn’t be suitable for growing roses, right? Does this gardener have some secret?】
【I know, watered with love (doge head.jpg)】
【What planting secret? It’s just money power. I remember the villa’s gardener exposed it online before—lol, it looks good, but it can’t be grown for long. When it stops looking good, they just replace them with new ones~】
【Romance really does cost money (poor person crying.jpg)】
Suddenly, the sound of pitter-pattering footsteps came from off-camera. Everyone knew it was probably their child coming, and they all held their breath.
【Looking forward to the little one!】
【These two both have godly visuals22, the child they have must be super good-looking!】
【It’s sigh-inducing—to think I was a single dog when I watched the dating show, and now their kid can go on a kids’ variety show, and I’m still a single dog (tough girl tears.jpg)】
【Then you’re quite something…】
【Can the person above even talk? This is called being pure and true to oneself—person above, you really, I’m crying my eyes out!!!】
【…High EQ23! (thumbs up)(thumbs up)】
In the midst of everyone’s anticipation, Jiaojiao’s beautiful face, a younger version of Pei Xuezhi’s, appeared on camera. Her amber eyes and naturally curly hair were inherited from Fu Chaoyun, making her incredibly cute.
Facing the camera, she even blinked a couple of times and greeted softly.
“Can you see me? Hello everyone~”
The pervy uncles/aunties/grandpas/grandmas/brothers/sisters in the live broadcast room were instantly overwhelmed by cuteness, exclaiming—
【This is the child of my dreams!】
Even the staff couldn’t help but soften their voices. “We can see you.”
This was the individual interview segment for each child; parents were not present. Five-year-old Jiaojiao faced the camera without any nervousness, likely having inherited some of Fu Chaoyun’s social butterfly24 tendencies.
Hearing the adult’s question, although she spoke with childish words, her voice soft and sweet, the logic in her words was very clear.
When asked why she agreed to participate in the variety show, the little one was very honest, pursing her delicate little lips and revealing a radiant smile.
“To earn money.”
Well now!
Ambitious and undisguised! Truly the child of those two!
The staff felt even more motivated to work; they might even work for Jiaojiao in the future! The questions from their mouths didn’t stop. “Then what will Jiaojiao do with the money she earns~”
Jiaojiao’s eyes sparkled, looking even more like Fu Chaoyun. “Marry a wife, support a wife.”
The childish voice immediately caused a wave of laughter in the live broadcast room.
【Thinking about getting a wife at such a young age! That single dog from before, come take a look! You’re an adult, yet your ideological awareness isn’t even as high as a cub’s!】
【Lost… truly lost at the starting line… Also, please pay attention to your quantifier! What do you mean by “only”!!!】
The staff continued to ask, “Then what kind of Omega does Jiaojiao like?”
The little one, who had been speaking quickly and fluently, was suddenly stumped. Her round, bright eyes stopped moving, looking soft and cute, yet also a bit pitiable.
The questioner immediately repented, “You haven’t thought about it? I’m sorry…”
“I don’t want an Omega.” Jiaojiao suddenly interrupted, her voice firm and resonant. “I’m going to find an Alpha.”
“Huh?”
The bullet comments also filled the screen with: 【??????????】
Everyone was stunned.
Although the three ABO genders had been equal for a long time, in most industries, it was still tacitly assumed that Alphas were the strongest.
Both daughters of the Fu family’s previous generation were Alphas, and they had a family business to inherit. So, by default, it was assumed the child should also naturally become an Alpha.
For Jiaojiao to open her mouth and assume she would differentiate into an Omega in the future was truly unexpected.
“Why?”
Jiaojiao looked a little strange, but her expression remained focused—she only looked delicate; once she got serious, her personality was very strong, which was like Pei Xuezhi. However, compared to Pei Xuezhi’s absolute assertiveness, she would choose to be more like Fu Chaoyun, with an added layer of sweetness and softness as a wrapper.
At this moment, the little one said, “I want to be an Omega, so in the future, I can dote on Mama just like Mommy does.”
Mommy was Pei Xuezhi.
Then Mama was naturally Fu Chaoyun.
Smart people had already figured it out.
【So at home, it’s usually Pei Xuezhi doting on Fu Chaoyun?! What kind of divine material for an Alpha’s dream is this? F#ck, I’m truly envious, so envious…】
Before the bullet comments could ferment further, a melodious voice suddenly interrupted, “Pei Jiaojiao.”
Just hearing this voice, little Jiaojiao suddenly sat up straight, no longer daring to “spout nonsense.”
【My wife is here?】
【Cameraman!!!】
【Wait, look what I found? Fu Chaoyun and Pei Xuezhi’s child is actually surnamed “Pei”? She took Pei Xuezhi’s surname?】
Soon, someone replied.
【No problem there, after all, Pei Xuezhi does have a throne to inherit (doge head)】
The camera, as if hearing the call of the bullet comments, was very understanding and turned towards the source of the voice—
Only to see Pei Xuezhi standing there, the beauty still intoxicating. Time had been exceptionally kind to her, seemingly leaving no trace on her, only making her more mature and mellow, like a ripened peach, exuding an alluring sweetness from top to bottom, inside and out.
Matured, and even more charming.
“Don’t talk nonsense,” Pei Xuezhi said.
At first glance, she still seemed to be the cool beauty from past memories, but if one listened carefully to her voice, the frost in her brows had long been warmed and melted by that person. Even her voice was no longer so cold, carrying a trace of gentleness in front of the child.
“What’s wrong?”
Fu Chaoyun, a step behind, also walked in, her beauty likewise undiminished. As she spoke, her hand rested on Pei Xuezhi’s shoulder, borrowing a bit of strength, natural and intimate.
Jiaojiao immediately stood up from the child seat and went to hug Fu Chaoyun’s leg, calling out clingily, “Mommy, Mommy~”
Fu Chaoyun soothingly patted the child’s head, while looking at Pei Xuezhi. “What’s wrong with Jiaojiao?”
In front of the camera, the child clinging to her leg suddenly seemed to become an afterthought. The Alpha’s eyes could only see Pei Xuezhi. Before Pei Xuezhi could even complain, Fu Chaoyun comforted her first.
“Don’t be angry, the child is still young.” Then she said to the child beside her, “Jiaojiao, be good.”
Little Jiaojiao understood, and while hugging Fu Chaoyun’s leg, she nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.
“Jiaojiao is good~”
At this moment, except for their faces, this mother and daughter were practically identical.
Pei Xuezhi attached great importance to the child’s education and still wanted to reason with her. “Do you know what she just…”
Fu Chaoyun didn’t shy away, directly leaning over and kissing Pei Xuezhi on the cheek. She blinked those beautiful eyes, just like the child’s, and said innocently, “What happened just now?”
Doing this in front of the camera, and so naturally, showed that the two often behaved like this at home, even in front of their child. After so many years, their affection remained.
【Just watching a kids’ variety show, and I’m shipping them again and again… So sweet, so sweet, this is the rhythm, don’t stop, more, more25 ahhh!】
【Supermarket trip, quickly fast forward to the supermarket trip segment!】
【Lol, more than five years have passed, still the same old tricks? 23326】
【Child: In the end, my trust was misplaced…】
“Wow!” After that kiss, the “betrayed” child immediately covered her eyes, yet deliberately left a small gap to continue peeking.
Busy watching the excitement!
She would definitely find a sweet wife in the future too~
—Thus, five-year-old little Pei Jiaojiao (formal name Pei Zhaoxing) made a lifelong vow.
It was just that the little one was raised to be round and milky, and a cub’s limbs weren’t very flexible. It was already an effort to spread her white and tender radish-like hands, and what she could see through that tiny gap was even more minuscule.
Moreover, Fu Chaoyun was faster.
The mommy who had just been doting on the child and speaking up for her suddenly covered the child’s eyes with one hand—that hand was much larger than the child’s tender little paws, instantly covering them completely.
“Mommy, Mommy, Mama…” the child called out, bewildered. This time, neither adult paid her any attention.
Fu Chaoyun once again took off her earpiece, along with Pei Xuezhi’s, just like her past behavior in 《Heartbeat》. She turned slightly to cover her mouth movements. Even though the camera was still filming, and the child was suppressed by Fu Chaoyun’s hand, they could only see the two huddled together intimately, whispering. But what they were actually saying was completely inaudible.
And as Fu Chaoyun spoke, Pei Xuezhi suddenly turned her head and shot her a sidelong glance, full of charm.
【Five-year veteran fan here uninvited, hoping these two can be happy forever and ever, you must be happy!】
【Of course, the little one too, roar~!】
The author has something to say:
A lot of trivial daily life stuff, I had quite a bit of fun writing it 233
Anyway, these should be the only two supplementary extras for the main story, no more, no more~ If I were to write the kids’ variety show in detail, the focus might inevitably shift partly to the child, which I personally don’t feel is great. I still want Yunyun and Zhizhi to be the sole protagonists of this world.
There’s one IF story left (the IF is split into two, 1 and 2 at different time points, which I personally find quite interesting), and two side character extras. Please choose to purchase based on the titles~
