A Wealthy Family’s Married-In Alpha Redemption On A Parenting Variety Show - Chapter 2

After listening to the whole story from beginning to end, Bi Qiujun leaned back against the seat and fell into thought.

So four years ago, Chu Siyun had gone off to get married and have a child.

No wonder.

This love-addled fool.

But then again, she did not seem that love-addled either. After making her comeback, she spent three hundred days a year running between film sets and fifty days running between events. She barely took any breaks. She did not seem like someone with a child at all.

When they had started working together again, Bi Qiujun had been somewhat wary of the power behind Chu Siyun, so she had not asked too much about what happened back then.

Actually, it seemed like it was not that big of a deal.

Wasn’t it just having a child?

She and her wife were a proper, legally married couple. So what if they had a child?

Bi Qiujun glanced at Chu Siyun beside her and started asking about the child.

“How old is the child?”

“A little over three.”

“What does she look like?”

“Long hair. Very pretty…”

Bi Qiujun looked at her own artist as if she were looking at an idiot. “A photo.”

Chu Siyun quickly went to feel around for her phone. After getting it, she suddenly remembered something. “I don’t have one.”

Bi Qiujun was stunned speechless.

Xiao Chen, sitting behind them, continued being shocked.

Teacher Chu truly brought her surprises at every moment.

When Xiao Chen had first started following Chu Siyun, she had been a little nervous and cautious. She had never expected Chu Siyun to have such a good temper.

Later, when Chu Siyun went into heat, Xiao Chen, as a beta, could only worry helplessly at the side. Sister Jun said suppressants did not work on Chu Siyun. Yet after only a few minutes, Chu Siyun’s wife arrived and became her suppressant.

Now that Chu Siyun said she had a child, it did not seem impossible to accept either.

Chu Siyun had always been someone who could “create surprises.”

In her private life, she had endless secrets. Every one that was uncovered made things even more surprising. In her career, every time everyone thought she had reached the peak, she somehow managed to reach a new height again.

After the surprise passed, Bi Qiujun felt that this was not some major issue.

The hotel was fairly discreet. Qin Shiyue came every month, so when it came to handling this kind of thing, they had plenty of experience.

She began calculating what they should buy for the little one, while also telling Xiao Chen what to pay attention to. Xiao Chen was young and did not know how to deal with children.

Bi Qiujun said, “Children her age, especially little girls, are ridiculously cute.”

Through Bi Qiujun’s description, Xiao Chen seemed to already see a little girl with tiny braids and a princess dress. “I can imagine it. Sister Jun, is it hard to take care of a child?”

Bi Qiujun waved her hand grandly. “Just do what I said earlier. It’s not hard.”

Xiao Chen nodded. In her mind, she was already imagining how she would get along with the child.

Teacher Chu was so beautiful, and her wife was also gorgeous. Their child would definitely be super adorable.

Bi Qiujun suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.

She hurriedly looked beside her. At some point, Chu Siyun had already fallen asleep.

Bi Qiujun leaned closer to her and took a light breath.

“Xiao Chen, suppressant. Her heat is coming.”

Xiao Chen was a beta and could not judge these things, while Bi Qiujun and Chu Siyun were both omegas. Xiao Chen quickly rummaged through the bag.

Bi Qiujun shook Chu Siyun awake. “Siyun, Siyun, wake up. We’re almost at the hotel. Take a suppressant first.”

Chu Siyun struggled awake and let the others roll up her sleeve and stick the needle into her vein.

She had already guessed in the afternoon that her heat was about to arrive.

She was different from other omegas. Other people could get through their heat after taking a suppressant and sleeping it off. She could not.

Ever since she differentiated into an omega, every single one of her heats had been difficult to endure. Suppressants could only ease her symptoms. If she did not suffer through at least two or three days, there was no way for it to pass.

After getting married, she could no longer go through her heat without that person. That person was like her exclusive suppressant. Only with her there would her heat become bearable.

Only a thread of Chu Siyun’s consciousness remained. Like a puppet, she held onto Xiao Chen’s arm as she got out of the car, then was supported by Xiao Chen and Bi Qiujun back to her hotel room.

“What time is it?”

Xiao Chen answered, “A little past seven. They should arrive around eight.”

Chu Siyun’s voice was as faint as a dying breath. “Go eat first. I’ll sleep for a while.”

Xiao Chen had never experienced how unbearable an omega’s heat could be, but she could tell.

At this moment, Chu Siyun was curled up on the bed like an injured kitten. All of her usual strength had disappeared, and the sight made one’s heart ache.

After leaving Chu Siyun’s room, Xiao Chen dialed Qin Shiyue’s number.

“Hello?”

Qin Shiyue pulled the sleeping child in her arms a little closer and adjusted her posture as she answered the phone.

Earlier, when she had gone home halfway to pack the child’s things, she had found a driver. It would not be safe for her to drive several hours alone with a child.

“Miss Qin, when will you arrive?”

“About another hour. What’s wrong?”

“Teacher Chu’s heat has started.”

After hanging up, Qin Shiyue frowned.

What a troublesome creature.

Good thing she had eaten in the car earlier. Otherwise, she would have had to serve someone on an empty stomach.

The daughter in her arms suddenly opened her eyes.

Qin Shiyue touched her face. “You’re awake. Baby, are you hungry?”

Chu Xiao shook her head. “Not hungry. Mommy, how much longer until we get there?”

Qin Shiyue sat her on her lap. “About an hour.”

Chu Xiao reached up and rubbed her eyes. “Will I get to see Mama when we arrive? Is she waiting for us?”

Qin Shiyue cursed inwardly. Of all times to go into heat, she had to do it exactly when the child’s expectations were at their highest.

On the surface, however, she still smiled. “You’ll be able to see her when you wake up tomorrow. Mama isn’t feeling very well.”

Chu Xiao immediately grew anxious. “What’s wrong with Mama? Where does Mama feel bad?”

Qin Shiyue found this a little difficult.

Heat… how was she supposed to explain that to a child?

Chu Xiao had grown a gland. They just did not know yet whether she would differentiate into an alpha or an omega.

She would have to know sooner or later, so they might as well tell her directly.

Qin Shiyue said, “Mama is an omega. Her heat has arrived, so she doesn’t feel well. She needs to rest properly today.”

Chu Xiao nodded. “I know that. Teacher talked about it. Most children are born from omegas. Omegas work very hard. Their heats are difficult too, and they need their alphas to stay with them.”

Qin Shiyue stroked her little head. “That’s right.”

Chu Xiao asked, “Is Mommy going to stay with Mama?”

Qin Shiyue nodded.

Chu Xiao asked again, “Then can I come too?”

Qin Shiyue’s smile froze on her face.

Chu Xiao’s tone was excited. “I can help you take care of Mama.”

Qin Shiyue thought: This is something you really can’t help with. In fact, you would even be a little in the way.

“Baby, an omega’s heat can only be taken care of by her alpha alone. They have a magical thing on them called pheromones, which can make the omega feel at ease and make the omega less uncomfortable. But no one else can be involved, okay?”

Chu Xiao seemed to understand, but still asked unwillingly, “Really not?”

Qin Shiyue shook her head. “No.”

Not only was it not possible, she also had to find Xiao Chen to watch the child. Giving the child a shallow explanation of physiological knowledge was one thing, but there were some things she truly could not let her see.

They entered through the back door of the hotel.

Like secret agents making contact, Qin Shiyue took off her coat and wrapped the child entirely inside it, while Xiao Chen followed behind carrying the luggage.

Only after they reached Xiao Chen’s room did Qin Shiyue “dig” the child out.

Chu Xiao’s little face had been smothered red from the heat. She took a breath, then sighed in her milky little voice, “So hot.”

Qin Shiyue pinched her cheek.

Xiao Chen had not been able to see the child, only hear that doll-like voice.

Even just from the sound of her voice, she could feel how cute she was.

Oh my god.

Qin Shiyue placed the child on the sofa, then stood and pointed at the bag in Xiao Chen’s hand. “There’s powdered milk inside. If she gets hungry, make her three hundred milliliters. There are other daily necessities too. If you don’t understand something, ask her. She knows.”

At this moment, Chu Xiao poked a little head out from behind Qin Shiyue and looked at Xiao Chen with blinking, wide eyes.

Xiao Chen almost could not control herself.

She wanted to scream. How could there be a child this pretty?

Heavens, she was practically carved from the same mold as Teacher Chu.

Chu Siyun’s looks were considered top-tier even in the entertainment industry.

Xiao Chen waved restrainedly.

Chu Xiao moved completely out from behind Mommy. “Hello, Sister!”

Ahhhhh, she wanted to squish her so badly.

Qin Shiyue corrected her. “You should call her Auntie. Stay with Auntie tonight. I’ll come pick you up tomorrow morning. Be good, okay? If you feel uncomfortable or you’re not used to it, tell Auntie. If you really feel bad, have Auntie call me.”

Chu Xiao nodded. “Okay. You go take care of Mama.”

Qin Shiyue touched her daughter’s head, took the room card, and left.

Xiao Chen was still a little at a loss. Her mouth moved, but no sound came out.

Chu Xiao, on the other hand, was like a tiny social butterfly. She sat on the sofa by herself. “Auntie, I’m hungry.”

Hungry?

Right, there was milk powder in the bag.

Xiao Chen frantically went to rummage through it.

After placing the powdered milk and the cup on the table, Xiao Chen was stumped. She had never made formula before.

Chu Xiao instructed her verbally. “Auntie, put the water in first.”

Xiao Chen went to get the kettle.

Sister Jun had said it had to be warm water, so Xiao Chen went to get a cup and mix it with cool water.

Although the process was a little arduous, she fortunately managed to pour three hundred milliliters of warm water.

Chu Xiao said, “Add five scoops.”

Xiao Chen scooped one spoonful of milk powder.

Chu Xiao added, “Auntie, level it off.”

Xiao Chen scraped off the excess at the rim of the milk powder tin.

Finally, under her own guidance, Chu Xiao at last drank suitable milk.

This auntie was a little silly.

Good thing she was smart enough.

When Qin Shiyue left the room, she had marched out full of heroic vigor. But now, standing at the door of Chu Siyun’s room, she actually felt a little timid.

Last time, Chu Siyun in heat had done that to her.

The “tragic state” she had been in the next day still left her with lingering trauma. There had not been a good spot left on her body.

Were S-rank omegas all that fierce?

Forget it, forget it. She had to steel herself and go in anyway.

Besides, she was also an S-rank alpha. What was there to be afraid of?

Last time was purely because she had been giving in to Chu Siyun.

Qin Shiyue swallowed, then swiped the card and opened the door.

As soon as she entered, she smelled lemon, fresh and fragrant with a hint of tartness.

The farther she walked in, the stronger the scent became.

Qin Shiyue tore off her own suppressant patch.

The scent of sparkling water spread from the doorway. Though light, it could not be ignored.

The two scents twined and tangled together.

Even though the two people had not yet touched, there was already a feeling of desperate, lingering intimacy.

As if finally sensing that something was wrong, the person on the bed moved.

A hand reached out from under the blanket and grabbed at the air. After catching only empty space, that person suddenly jolted awake.

Their gazes met. Qin Shiyue pressed her lips together and swallowed. “I’ll… take a shower first.”

After entering the bathroom, Qin Shiyue washed her face first.

Why did her legs always feel a little weak whenever she saw Chu Siyun now?

It was definitely because of last week.

Before that, the markings between them had always been proper and by the book. The time they had the child had been an accident, and the rest had all been for the sake of helping Chu Siyun get through her heat. The purpose was clear, and nothing had gone wrong in the middle.

But last week, an accident had appeared.

Because Qin Shiyue had caught a cold, she had been somewhat weak overall. Chu Siyun’s desire during heat was very intense. Qin Shiyue had just entered the room when she was pounced on. Before she could even react, she had been stripped completely bare.

What happened after that actually slipped out of her control.

She, an S-rank alpha, had been reverse-marked by an omega in heat.

It was a little hard to accept, but that was what had happened.

Today, she absolutely could not be pinned down again.

Qin Shiyue began taking off her clothes, washing herself clean so she could properly serve the “great lord” lying outside.

The last piece of clothing was tossed into the laundry basket.

Qin Shiyue stepped into the shower with satisfaction.

Hot water flowed from the showerhead, the droplets striking the floor and splashing apart into countless beads.

The sound of rushing water filled Qin Shiyue’s hearing.

With her back to the outside, she washed herself. After several hours on the road, her muscles and bones were sore.

The hot water pouring over her body eased her fatigue very effectively.

Her nerves were so relaxed that Qin Shiyue even wanted to hum a little tune.

How should she handle that person later?

Qin Shiyue was still thinking about what would happen in a while when she was suddenly pressed against the wall without the slightest mental preparation.

In late autumn, her warm body was pushed directly against the cold tile, and Qin Shiyue shivered.

Before she could fully adjust to the sudden shift from warmth to cold, a head leaned against her shoulder and found its way to her lips.

After being kissed until her head spun and everything blurred, those thin lips moved from her chin along her jawline and then toward the back, aiming at the small raised patch on the back of her neck as sharp teeth showed.

The instant the tips of those teeth pierced her gland, Qin Shiyue’s body was also opened by that person.

Qin Shiyue did not resist, nor could she. She silently accepted all of it.

She had been… again?
