After Transmigrating as the Vicious Female Supporting Character, I Ran Away While Pregnant - Chapter 30.1

When Li Sheng brought Ranran back, a lamp had been left on in the little house. Mo Yueshuang had already lain down to rest.

Li Sheng and Ranran tried their best to stay quiet. When Li Sheng brought Ranran onto the bed to rest, Ranran’s tiny body squeezed into Li Sheng’s arms. Fortunately, they had pushed the beds together earlier. Otherwise, Ranran definitely would have fallen onto the floor by now.

“Mommy~ good night.”

Ranran leaned over and kissed Li Sheng’s forehead. Li Sheng also naturally kissed her forehead in return. “Ranran, good night.”

Only after the mother and daughter both lay down did Mo Yueshuang, whom they had thought was asleep, finally drop her act. Feeling the presence of Li Sheng and Ranran opposite her, she finally closed her eyes in peace and calmly searched for sleep.

Perhaps because the environment had suddenly changed, or perhaps because this little house had stirred Mo Yueshuang’s memories of the past, she did not sleep soundly. She fell asleep a little after ten, then woke again a little after twelve.

Dazedly, she forced herself to rest properly, but at two in the morning, she woke again.

Cold sweat from the nightmare remained on Mo Yueshuang’s forehead. At this moment, she sat on the bed and panted softly, afraid that if she made too much noise, she would wake Li Sheng and Ranran. But Mo Yueshuang herself still seemed trapped in the nightmare, unable to break free.

So she tiptoed outside the little house and turned on the wall lamp outside. Using the faint light, she looked at the mountain forest night scenery a few meters nearby.

In the early morning at the end of September, the mountain forest was still relatively cold, and the chill was heavy. Mo Yueshuang had only come out wearing a jacket. Although there was no wind, the cold still seeped through her clothes and crept onto her skin. Mo Yueshuang rubbed both hands up and down her arms, trying to warm herself.

She already felt cold, yet she still lingered over the quietness and night scenery outside. A bitter smile rose at the corners of Mo Yueshuang’s mouth.

Wasn’t she toward Li Sheng exactly like this right now? She clearly knew the other person was cold, and if she continued trying to make contact, she might freeze herself, yet she still wanted to stay. She wanted to stay by Li Sheng’s side a little longer.

Mo Yueshuang was already a rational adult. No matter how much she longed for the quiet outside, she did not want to freeze herself into a cold and delay work. So she planned to stand a little longer, let the chaotic familiarity in her mind settle, calm herself down, and then go back to sleep.

Li Sheng.

Mo Yueshuang silently recited this name in her heart. Like making a wish, she carefully hid this name secretly in her heart and waited for the day that wish would come true.

Mo Yueshuang was lost in thought when someone suddenly pressed down on her shoulder from behind. She jumped in fright, turned around, and saw Li Sheng.

Li Sheng was holding a large trench coat. She draped it over Mo Yueshuang and naturally straightened the collar for her.

What followed was Li Sheng’s slightly angry questioning. “The mountains are cold. Wearing so little, you’ll easily catch a chill. Don’t you have any sense?”

Mo Yueshuang was scolded, but not only was she not unhappy at all, Li Sheng’s appearance even made her heart faintly sweet.

Seeing that she did not resist and had accepted the trench coat, Li Sheng stopped holding onto the matter of catching cold and instead became concerned about Mo Yueshuang’s current mood.

“You have something very heavy on your mind. Is it convenient to tell me?”

Facing Li Sheng’s concerned question, Mo Yueshuang did not know how to answer.

Her nightmares came from childhood shadows, as well as the incident five years ago. These two things replayed countless times in her nightmares. She was often seized by demons in her dreams and thrown into the abyss of hell again and again.

However, not long ago, she had learned that Li Sheng had experienced the same thing as her. In the matter from five years ago, they were both victims. Yet Li Sheng was calm and composed now. When interacting with Li Sheng, Mo Yueshuang could not sense any psychological shadow from that incident five years ago at all.

She did not know whether Li Sheng had truly walked out of it.

“Li Sheng.”

“Mm?”

“Can I ask you a somewhat presumptuous question?”

Li Sheng looked at her suspiciously. “What?”

Mo Yueshuang hesitated for a long time. Now, she pressed her lips together and struggled inwardly for a while before finally deciding to ask. “Li Sheng, when you found out you had Ranran, what… did you feel?”

Li Sheng’s heart suddenly sank. The way she looked at Mo Yueshuang also turned sharp and cold.

Was Mo Yueshuang guessing Ranran’s background? Did Mo Yueshuang know something and was now testing her?

Ranran looked very much like Mo Yueshuang. Although not many people mentioned it to her face, that was because they were too embarrassed to say such things in front of a parent and make the parent feel blocked up inside.

But Li Sheng had heard plenty of gossip behind her back. Some people even joked about whether Mo Yueshuang had an illegitimate daughter and did not want her, secretly giving her to Li Sheng, and now they were playing this godmother act.

It did not matter if unrelated people guessed like this. But was Mo Yueshuang also secretly investigating and testing because Ranran looked like her?

No, that was not right.

Li Sheng was only thrown into chaos for an instant. Very quickly, she was amused by her own thoughts.

Although this world allowed women to have children with women through advanced technology, the early preparations and later childbirth inevitably required procedures on the body.

Mo Yueshuang was a perfectly normal person. Why would she, for no reason, suspect she had a child?

Even if Mo Yueshuang’s imagination were enormous, she would only place Ranran’s background on another man. Even if her imagination were bigger and she guessed toward a woman, Mo Yueshuang would never think of herself no matter how hard she tried.

Li Sheng steadied her mind. Thinking carefully about Mo Yueshuang’s question just now, it seemed like only casual late-night chat between friends who could not sleep. Guan Tai and Miranda had also asked out of curiosity back then.

Li Sheng smiled.

Mo Yueshuang was dazzled by this smile. The wall lamp outside was a dim orange-yellow, and the light fell on them, as if coating Li Sheng in a layer of radiance, like an angel redeeming sinful souls in hell.

Mo Yueshuang could not help staring in a daze until Li Sheng’s voice sounded.

“When I found out I was pregnant with Ranran, in that moment, I couldn’t believe it. After looking at the report and confirming it, I felt both like crying and laughing. Then all that was left was happiness and anticipation. I was happy that I would have company in the future, and I anticipated the arrival of a little life connected to me by blood. Then when I truly saw Ranran that day, I suddenly felt as if I possessed the whole world.” When Li Sheng spoke of Ranran, her emotions softened.

“Ranran’s first cry was the most beautiful sound in my world. Her tiny hand could barely hold one of my fingers, and she held it as if she were holding her everything. She was so tiny, sleeping beside me. I listened to her shallow, rising and falling breaths. At that time, my whole world was gentle.”

“In the days without Ranran, I always lived like a walking corpse. No purpose, no chance, not even a life.”

“Ranran is not only my child. She is also my redemption.”

At this moment, Li Sheng was completely enveloped by the halo of maternal love. Her whole heart and eyes were full of her precious daughter.

Seeing how much she loved Ranran, a sourness suddenly surged in Mo Yueshuang’s heart. Although she clearly knew this was Li Sheng’s motherly love, Mo Yueshuang still felt somewhat envious. From the moment Ranran was born, she had occupied all of Li Sheng’s thoughts, attracted all of Li Sheng’s attention, and was cherished day and night in Li Sheng’s palm and arms.

As for herself, she was still frantically testing the edges of friendship.

The two of them had been chatting perfectly well, and Li Sheng had just been speaking with such feeling, so why did Mo Yueshuang suddenly look listless, as if she were extremely sad?

Mo Yueshuang’s sudden change in mood made Li Sheng feel baffled.

“What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly ask me these things?” Thanks to Ranran, Li Sheng could still recognize some of the little movements this mother and daughter made when they were unhappy. Right now, Mo Yueshuang’s hands were behind her back, clenched tightly into fists and slowly relaxing again. This was the movement Ranran most often made when she was unhappy.

While Li Sheng was puzzled no matter how she thought about it, someone suddenly crashed into her arms. Mo Yueshuang hugged her tightly from the front.

The ambiguous atmosphere spreading through the air made Li Sheng feel slightly suffocated. She inhaled lightly, then slowly exhaled.

Mo Yueshuang’s arms wrapped around her waist, and one hand pressed slightly against the small of her back. Li Sheng felt her lower abdomen press tightly against Mo Yueshuang, and her entire body suddenly became hot and restless.

Mo Yueshuang before her seemed as if she wanted to rub Li Sheng into her body, holding her tightly and trapping her.

Mo Yueshuang’s movements brought their bodies even closer. Their breaths twined around each other. Li Sheng looked at Mo Yueshuang’s brows and eyes, so close at hand.

Li Sheng even had the leisure to sigh inwardly. Fortunately, Ranran was still small and had only inherited the outer beauty of these eyes, so the starlight in her eyes was still adorable and had not learned even half of Mo Yueshuang’s charm and allure.

Li Sheng saw herself in Mo Yueshuang’s eyes. At this moment, Mo Yueshuang was gentle yet domineering. Li Sheng felt Mo Yueshuang was not holding her in her arms, but wanted to lock her inside her eyes.

The faint fragrance on Mo Yueshuang’s body entered Li Sheng’s body as she breathed. Li Sheng only felt that if Mo Yueshuang did not leave soon, her entire person would go soft.

Li Sheng did not dare let her eyes wander, afraid that if she was careless, this demoness would hook away her soul. She did not know why she wanted to get even closer to Mo Yueshuang, nor did she know why her gaze had fallen on Mo Yueshuang’s red lips.

Back then, when Li Sheng had been bitten by a zombie, as she was about to turn into one, she had developed a desire to eat meat. It was just that she could still control it then. Later, after she gained an ability, she failed to fully mutate into a zombie but unfortunately lost her signs of life. Thankfully, a blessing came from disaster and made her desire to eat meat disappear.

Now, at this moment, Li Sheng looked at Mo Yueshuang before her and could not help tightening her throat. She wanted to taste Mo Yueshuang’s flavor. It must be extremely delicious. The tip of her nose could even smell the fragrance unique to Mo Yueshuang.

The desire in Li Sheng’s heart was stirred up. Her body gradually heated after being held tightly. These things made Li Sheng feel irritated, and the emotions surging in her heart made her uneasy.

The fair neck in front of her, the small and adorable earlobe, the soul-hooking and spirit-stealing charming eyes, the soft body that seemed to press against her yet not, the boneless arms wrapped around her waist like vines, and those slender, straight legs that brushed against her intentionally or unintentionally.

This was terrible. Was she about to mutate again?

She wanted to bite every part, taste every part.

Li Sheng did her best to restrain herself. She tightly closed her eyes, refusing to let herself transform into a monster and pounce on Mo Yueshuang.

Li Sheng was a fake monster, but Mo Yueshuang was a real demoness.

At this moment, this demoness had made up her mind to seduce Li Sheng. She liked Li Sheng. She loved Li Sheng. Instinctively, she wanted to get close to Li Sheng, but because of their friendship, she always controlled her own desire and kept a safe distance when interacting with Li Sheng.

The taut string in Li Sheng’s mind suddenly snapped. She clearly felt Mo Yueshuang’s hand at the small of her back slowly stroke up her back. The other party deliberately pressed with her fingertips, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily, making it impossible for Li Sheng to ignore their existence.

Wherever those fingertips wandered, it was as if a strange fire had been lit. It burned Li Sheng until her mouth went dry and she wanted to flee.

Li Sheng’s throat choked. In the second before she was about to struggle free and escape, Mo Yueshuang seemed to sense it and suddenly left her body.

Mo Yueshuang straightened the slightly messy hair on her forehead and said full of apology, “Sorry, Li Sheng. I just had a nightmare. I lost composure.”

“It’s… it’s fine.” Li Sheng turned around unnaturally. “I’m going back to sleep. You should rest early too.”

Li Sheng was about to leave, but Mo Yueshuang grabbed her wrist.

“Li Sheng!”

“Mm? Ah… what is it?” Li Sheng, who had been teased and tempted, looked soft and a little dazed.

Mo Yueshuang secretly laughed in her heart. So Ranran’s cuteness was inherited from Li Sheng.

Mo Yueshuang’s mind replayed what had just happened. She confirmed that Li Sheng was only somewhat unused to it and unnatural. Although Li Sheng’s body had gone stiff and her breathing had become rapid and messy when they were close and embracing, none of these were reactions of rejection toward her.

With this understanding, Mo Yueshuang felt very good. Joy even showed on her face. “Thank you, Li Sheng.”

Li Sheng, whose emotions were pure and whose theoretical knowledge was close to zero, while her practical experience had reached negative numbers, hurriedly answered at this time, “You don’t need to be polite. I, mm… Ranran likes you very much. So I, uh—you hugging me is fine.”

Li Sheng also did not know what she was saying. Thinking that her own heart was a chaotic mess while the culprit stood in front of her smiling brightly, Li Sheng suddenly felt a nameless anger rise.

“Then what about you?” Mo Yueshuang asked before Li Sheng could sort out her thoughts. “Li Sheng, what about you? Ranran likes me very much. Do you like me?”

Li Sheng avoided the topic and hurried toward the little house. “Rest early. If it gets any later, the sky will be bright.”

She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, the desire she had finally suppressed would be lured out by Mo Yueshuang again.

Mo Yueshuang felt somewhat disappointed, but this was also within expectations. Then, when she saw Li Sheng walking toward the little house with the same hand and foot moving together, Mo Yueshuang suddenly laughed.

Mo Yueshuang swept away the gloom in her heart, turned off the wall lamp outside the little house, then followed Li Sheng inside and lay down.

The filming for these days had all been arranged in advance. Before the actors came, they had all been given time to practice and think things through. After they arrived, the director had also dragged them over to analyze and teach the scenes in detail.

So filming went smoothly. Even Le Yuantian and Bai Qin, who had come along with nothing much to do, pulled themselves together in the crew’s intense filming atmosphere and learned quite a lot of useful knowledge.

Bai Qin only absorbed it incidentally and remembered whatever she could. But Le Yuantian himself wanted to go far and long in the entertainment industry. This kind of learning opportunity was something one could only come across by chance and not seek. He knew very well that in the current entertainment industry, traffic stars updated and replaced one another quickly. Although they became popular quickly, once something happened, without strong works to support them, the loss of fans was still very terrifying.

At first, when he was in the company, the team’s arrangement for him was to become a traffic star. But he was lucky. His debut performance was in a major production directed by Wen Tingzong, so his mind became even more active.

Being a traffic star relying on looks and eating youth rice certainly felt great for the moment, but if he wanted longer-term development, he would inevitably have to walk the path of a skilled acting faction. At the very least, he had to be like Mo Yueshuang and possess the capital to withstand continuous attacks from haters.

Even though she had been smeared several times and lost some public favor, because she had strength and acting skills, she could still rely on her identity as an actress to obtain suitable resources within the circle.

If Mo Yueshuang had not had the identity of an actress supporting her, and if she herself had not made any major mistakes, then relying solely on Da Yi giving up on her and the attacks of so-called rumors within the circle, Mo Yueshuang would have long since fallen into the valley and been unable to climb back up.

Le Yuantian studied very seriously. He cherished this opportunity. Bai Qin was still thinking of Le Yuantian taking her to look around the village, but seeing Le Yuantian become serious, she felt embarrassed to disturb him.

She could not exactly go over and pester someone to take her sightseeing while he was holding a notebook and seriously taking notes.

Li Sheng had originally wanted to use this chance to let Bai Qin properly understand those so-called pitiful people. But because Mo Yueshuang had been teasing her intentionally and unintentionally, Li Sheng’s heart had long since become chaotic, and she no longer had extra energy to manage Bai Qin.

By the sixth day of filming, Bai Qin finally could not hold back anymore. She found Li Sheng and stated that she wanted to go deep into the village to take a look, and also wanted to visit the local elementary school to understand the situation.

“You can endure quite well. I’ll go with you.” Li Sheng had thought Bai Qin would at most behave for one or two days before clamoring to go. She had not expected Bai Qin to endure until now.

When Bai Qin heard that Li Sheng wanted to accompany her, she was so frightened she quickly stopped Li Sheng. “Don’t! I’m just telling you. I can find a guide myself. Besides, if you follow me, what about Ranran?”

“Miss Mo doesn’t have scenes this afternoon. She’ll take good care of Ranran.” Li Sheng wanted to calm down and stay away from Mo Yueshuang for a while.

So at this moment, accompanying Bai Qin to the village not only protected her friend’s younger sister, but also allowed her to hide from Mo Yueshuang for a day. It was truly a perfect arrangement beneficial to both sides.

Bai Qin looked at Li Sheng, then looked from afar at Mo Yueshuang. Gradually, an auntie-like smile appeared on her face. “It’s already reached the point where you can entrust your child to her, huh. Looks like the wedding wine is coming soon.”

“What are you muttering about? Are you going or not?”

“Going! Of course I’m going. This chance is rare. We’ll leave right away.” Bai Qin’s face turned serious. She put on her backpack and walked over, about to hook her arm through Li Sheng’s.

When Bai Qin came closer, Li Sheng showed some resistance. She avoided Bai Qin’s approach and took the lead, striding forward first, not letting Bai Qin come into close contact or hold her arm.

Bai Qin was silently rejected, but she did not feel dissatisfied at all. Instead, she turned back to glance at Mo Yueshuang, who was currently watching the child, and smiled meaningfully again.

“Auntie Mo, where is Mommy going?” Ranran asked Mo Yueshuang while eating a little fruit.

Mo Yueshuang sat on a small folding stool with Ranran in her arms. Ranran’s fluttering big eyes had been watching the actors currently filming. Just now, her attention had still been on the filming, but now she suddenly asked about Li Sheng.

Mo Yueshuang knew that Li Sheng was going to accompany Bai Qin to the village to investigate. But she thought that aside from accompanying Bai Qin, Li Sheng also hid some personal intention. Presumably, Li Sheng had left so quickly to avoid her.

Mo Yueshuang briefly explained it to Ranran.

Ranran, who was holding the fruit and chewing with great enjoyment, stopped at this moment. She turned around and looked up at Mo Yueshuang. “Auntie Mo, why does Auntie Bai Qin want to help those children?”

“Because…” Mo Yueshuang, who was usually eloquent, was at a loss for words now. Looking into Ranran’s bright starry eyes, Mo Yueshuang thought for a moment before saying, “Because Auntie Bai Qin wants to help them, so she needs to understand the situation and take action.”

Because Mo Yueshuang’s explanation was really not qualified enough for a child, baby Ranran heard it as if she had not heard it at all, still only half-understanding.

Fortunately, this matter did not leave too much confusion in Ranran’s mind. After nibbling two bites of fruit, the sour-sweet flavor made her forget to keep asking. Before long, her attention was attracted by the actors again, and this matter was completely forgotten.

Mo Yueshuang could tell that Ranran seemed very interested in acting, so when explaining it to Ranran, she became even more detailed, making it easier for Ranran to understand more deeply.

“Screenwriter Li! Wait for me!”

Bai Qin followed closely behind Li Sheng, but Li Sheng walked mountain roads even faster than flat roads. She did not show the slightest discomfort, making Bai Qin chase after her for quite a while.
