The Alpha Daughter-in-Law's Whitewashing Journey in a Reality Show with Her Child (GL) - Chapter 2
After hearing the whole story, Bi Qiujun leaned back in her seat, deep in thought.
So, four years ago, Chu Siyun got married and had a child. No wonder. What a love-struck fool.
But then again, she didn’t seem like one. After her comeback, she spent three hundred days a year on set and fifty days at events. She barely took any time off, not at all like someone with a child.
When they reconnected, Bi Qiujun was a bit cautious about the power behind Chu Siyun and didn’t ask much about what happened back then.
Actually, it seemed like it wasn’t a big deal. So what if she had a child? She and her wife were legally married. What’s wrong with having 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?”
“She has long hair, and she’s very pretty…”
Bi Qiujun looked at her celebrity with a “are you for real?” expression. “A picture.”
Chu Siyun quickly reached for her phone, but then suddenly remembered something. “I don’t have one.”
Bi Qiujun was dumbfounded. Xiao Chen, in the back, continued to be surprised. Chu Siyun was constantly giving her surprises.
When she first started working with Chu Siyun, she was a bit nervous, but she didn’t expect her to have such a good temper. Later, when Chu Siyun went into heat, Xiao Chen, being a beta, was anxiously standing by because Ms. Bi had said that suppressants didn’t work on Chu Siyun. But in a few minutes, her wife arrived and became her suppressant.
Now, hearing that she had a child didn’t seem so hard to accept. Chu Siyun was always a person who “created surprises.” Her private life was an endless source of secrets; each one she uncovered was more surprising than the last. In her career, every time people thought she had reached her peak, she would manage to reach a new height.
After the initial shock, Bi Qiujun decided it wasn’t a big deal. The hotel was relatively private, and since Qin Shiyue came every month, they had experience handling such matters.
She started to think about what to buy for the child and told Xiao Chen what to pay attention to. She was young and didn’t know how to deal with a child.
Bi Qiujun said, “Kids her age, especially little girls, are just adorable.”
From Bi Qiujun’s description, Xiao Chen could almost picture a little girl with pigtails and a princess dress. “I can imagine. Ms. Bi, is it hard to take care of a child?”
Bi Qiujun waved her hand dismissively. “Just do what I told you. It’s not hard.”
Xiao Chen nodded, already imagining herself getting along with the child. Chu Siyun was so beautiful, and her wife was gorgeous. The child must be super cute.
Suddenly, Bi Qiujun smelled a faint fragrance. She quickly looked at the person next to her. Chu Siyun had fallen asleep at some point. Bi Qiujun leaned closer and took a gentle breath.
“Xiao Chen, the suppressant. Her heat is coming.”
Xiao Chen, being a beta, couldn’t tell, but Bi Qiujun and Chu Siyun were both omegas. She quickly rummaged through her bag.
Bi Qiujun gently shook Chu Siyun awake. “Siyun, Siyun, wake up. We’re almost at the hotel. Let’s get a suppressant shot first.”
Chu Siyun groggily woke up and let someone roll up her sleeve and inject the needle into her vein. She had a feeling her heat was coming this afternoon.
She was different from other omegas. For others, a suppressant and a good night’s sleep were enough. Not for her. Since she differentiated into an omega, every heat had been difficult. Suppressants could only alleviate her symptoms; she couldn’t get through it without a couple of days of discomfort. After she got married, she couldn’t get through her heats without that person. She was like her personal suppressant; only with her was her heat bearable.
Chu Siyun was barely conscious. Like a puppet, she held onto Xiao Chen’s arm as she got out of the car and was helped into the hotel room by Xiao Chen and Bi Qiujun.
“What time is it?”
Xiao Chen answered, “A little after seven. They should arrive around eight.”
Chu Siyun, her voice barely a whisper, said, “You go eat first. I’ll get some sleep.”
Xiao Chen had never experienced how difficult an omega’s heat could be, but she could see it. At that moment, Chu Siyun was curled up on the bed like a wounded kitten. All her usual strength had disappeared, and it was a heartbreaking sight.
After leaving Chu Siyun’s room, Xiao Chen called Qin Shiyue.
“Hello?”
Qin Shiyue hugged the sleeping child tighter and adjusted her position to answer the phone. She had hired a driver on her way home to pack the child’s things, as it was unsafe for her to drive for several hours with the child alone.
“Miss Qin, what time will you arrive?”
“In about an hour. What’s wrong?”
“Ms. Chu’s heat has started.”
Qin Shiyue hung up, a frown on her face. What a troublemaker. It was a good thing she had eaten in the car, or she would have to take care of someone on an empty stomach.
Her daughter suddenly opened her eyes in her arms. Qin Shiyue touched her face. “You’re awake, sweetie. Are you hungry?”
Chu Xiao shook her head. “No, I’m not. Mommy, how much longer until we get there?”
Qin Shiyue lifted her onto her lap. “About an hour.”
Chu Xiao reached up and rubbed her eyes. “Will I see Mom when we get there? Is she waiting for us?”
Qin Shiyue cursed internally. Why did her heat have to start now, at the exact moment the child’s expectations were highest? Still, she smiled and said, “You’ll see her after you wake up tomorrow. Mom’s not feeling well.”
Chu Xiao immediately became worried. “What’s wrong with Mom? Where does she feel bad?”
Qin Shiyue was a little flustered. How was she supposed to explain “heat” to a child? Chu Xiao had scent glands, but it was unknown if she would differentiate into an alpha or an omega. She would have to know eventually, so it was better to be direct.
Qin Shiyue said, “Mom is an omega, and her heat has arrived. She’s not feeling well and needs to rest today.”
Chu Xiao nodded. “I know about that. My teacher told us that most children are born from omegas. Omegas work very hard, and their heats are very difficult. They need their alpha to be with them.”
Qin Shiyue stroked her little head. “That’s right.”
Chu Xiao asked, “Is Mommy going to go stay with Mom?”
Qin Shiyue nodded.
Chu Xiao then asked, “Can I come too?”
Qin Shiyue’s smile froze.
Chu Xiao’s voice was excited. “I can help you take care of Mom.”
Qin Shiyue thought to herself, You really can’t help with this. You’d actually be a hindrance.
“Sweetie, an omega’s heat can only be cared for by their alpha. They have a magical thing called pheromones, which makes the omega feel safe and less uncomfortable. No one else can get involved.”
Chu Xiao seemed to understand but still asked hopefully, “Are you sure?”
Qin Shiyue shook her head. “Yes, I’m sure.”
Not only was it a no, but she also had to have Xiao Chen watch the child. Explaining basic physiology was one thing, but there were some things she truly couldn’t let the child see.
They entered through the hotel’s back door. Like spies, Qin Shiyue took off her coat and wrapped the child in it completely. Xiao Chen followed behind with their luggage.
Qin Shiyue only “pulled” the child out after they reached Xiao Chen’s room. Chu Xiao’s face was flushed from being cooped up, and she took a deep breath, her little voice sighing, “It’s so hot.”
Qin Shiyue pinched her cheek. Xiao Chen couldn’t see the child, she could only hear the doll-like voice. Even just hearing the voice, she could feel how cute she was.
Oh my goodness.
Qin Shiyue put the child on the couch and stood up, pointing to the bag in Xiao Chen’s hand. “There’s milk powder inside. If she gets hungry, make her 300 milliliters. There are other daily necessities. If you don’t know something, ask her. She’ll know.”
At that moment, Chu Xiao peeked out from behind Qin Shiyue, blinking her big eyes at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen could barely control herself. She wanted to scream. How could a child be this beautiful? Oh my god, she was a spitting image of Ms. Chu.
Chu Siyun was known as a top-tier beauty in the entertainment industry.
Xiao Chen restrained herself and waved.
Chu Xiao fully emerged from behind her mommy. “Hello, big sister!”
Ahhhh, I want to squish her so bad.
Qin Shiyue corrected her, “You should call her Auntie. You’ll stay with Auntie today, and I’ll come pick you up tomorrow morning. Be a good girl. If you feel uncomfortable, tell Auntie. If you’re really not feeling well, have her call me.”
Chu Xiao nodded. “Okay. You go take care of Mom.”
Qin Shiyue patted her daughter’s head, took her room card, and left.
Xiao Chen was still a bit flustered, moving her mouth without making a sound. Chu Xiao, on the other hand, was like a little social butterfly. She sat on the couch and said, “Auntie, I’m hungry.”
Hungry? Right, the milk powder was in the bag.
Xiao Chen fumbled to find it. She placed the milk powder and cup on the table, feeling a bit helpless. She had never made it before.
Chu Xiao gave verbal instructions. “Auntie, put the water in first.”
Xiao Chen went to get the kettle. Ms. Bi had said to use warm water, so Xiao Chen went to get a cup to mix in cold water. Although the process was a bit difficult, she successfully poured 300 milliliters of warm water.
Chu Xiao said, “Add five scoops.”
Xiao Chen scooped out one spoonful of milk powder.
Chu Xiao said again, “Auntie, scrape it flat.”
Xiao Chen scraped off the excess powder on the rim of the container.
Finally, under her own command, Chu Xiao was able to drink the right milk. This auntie was a bit clumsy. It was a good thing she was so smart.
Qin Shiyue had left the room with a bold and confident swagger, but now, standing in front of Chu Siyun’s hotel room, she felt a little intimidated. Last time, Chu Siyun in heat had… done that to her. The “horrific state” she was in the next day still haunted her. There wasn’t a good spot on her body. Were all S-class omegas that fierce?
Forget it, she had to face it head-on. Besides, she was an S-class alpha. What was there to be afraid of? Last time, she was just being nice to Chu Siyun.
Qin Shiyue swallowed hard and swiped the room card. As soon as she entered, she smelled a lemon scent, both fresh and slightly sour. The further she walked in, the stronger the scent became.
Qin Shiyue tore off her own scent patch. The scent of sparkling water spread from the doorway. It was faint but impossible to ignore. The two scents intertwined. Even without being close to each other, it felt like an intimate embrace.
As if sensing something was wrong, the person on the bed moved. A hand reached out from under the blanket and grabbed at the air. After grabbing nothing, the person suddenly sat up.
Their eyes met. Qin Shiyue pursed her lips and swallowed again. “I’m going to take a shower first.”
She went into the bathroom and washed her face. Why did her legs feel weak every time she saw Chu Siyun now? It was definitely because of last week.
Before that, their markings were always very routine. The time they had the child was an accident, and the rest were all to help Chu Siyun get through her heat. The purpose was clear, and there were no surprises.
Then, last week, an unexpected event occurred. Qin Shiyue was a little weak from a cold, and Chu Siyun’s desires during her heat were very strong. As soon as she entered the room, she was tackled and stripped bare before she could even react. What happened next was completely out of her control.
She, an S-class alpha, had been reverse-marked by an omega in heat. It was a bit hard to accept, but it had happened.
It couldn’t happen again today.
Qin Shiyue started taking off her clothes, getting clean to serve the “master” lying on the bed outside. She threw the last piece of clothing into the laundry basket.
Qin Shiyue stepped into the shower, satisfied. Hot water flowed from the showerhead, and the droplets splashed into many pieces on the floor. The sound of water filled Qin Shiyue’s ears.
She stood with her back to the outside, cleaning herself. After several hours of driving, her muscles ached. The hot water on her body was very effective at relieving fatigue. Her nerves were so relaxed that Qin Shiyue even wanted to hum a tune.
How should I handle her later?
Qin Shiyue was still thinking about what was to come when she was suddenly pressed against the wall without any warning. In the late autumn weather, her warm body pressed against the cold tiles, and Qin Shiyue shivered.
Before she could fully adjust to the sudden change from warm to cold, a head was pressed against her shoulder, finding its way to her lips. After being kissed into a daze, the thin lips moved from her chin along her jawline to the back of her neck, where sharp teeth were bared at the small bump.
The moment the teeth pierced her scent gland, Qin Shiyue’s body was also opened up. Qin Shiyue didn’t resist and couldn’t, silently accepting it all.
She was… again.
