“I miss him a lot, so I regret not letting him come home, but I can’t find him at his school. Do you think he will see me now that I am standing here with a balloon tied to me?”
After saying this, it seemed as if the world of people coming and going suddenly disappeared, with only the two of them left.
Chu Yi Qiao looked at Doraemon standing not far away. It was impossible for him not to recognize Luo Qing Ye’s voice. He also saw every detail of Luo Qing Ye handing balloons to each child just now. He bent over and handed the balloons to the children with such a gentle tone that you could tell at a glance whether or not he likes children.
In fact, he didn’t mean to scold Luo Qing Ye, nor did he want to guess what Luo Qing Ye wanted to do. Just like Yuan Nian said, the age gap would make them have some different habits and ways of dealing with things. They should give each other space, but also to retain the sense of expectation.
So he didn’t get angry.
“Luo Qing Ye, I just miss you.”
Who wouldn’t be soft hearted when they hear their Omega say that, Luo Qing Ye directly took off the mascot’s headgear and stopped pretending.
When Chu Yi Qiao saw Doraemon take off the headgear, Luo Qing Ye, who was sweating, was exposed. Suddenly, his heart swelled up with sourness and amusement, and couldn’t help but turned his face away and laughed.
“Fool.”
“Then wouldn’t you be liking a fool?” Luo Qing Ye walked to Chu Yi Qiao with the mascot headgear in one hand. He had distributed all 300 balloons and would be paid and can go home soon: “How did you recognise me?”
“Feeling.” Chu Yi Qiao thought of the scene where Luo Qing Ye was so gentle and patient coaxing the child just now: “Do you like children very much?”
“Of course I like them.” Luo Qing Ye took Chu Yi Qiao to the bench outside the store: “You sit here and wait for me first. I’m going to change clothes and get money from the boss. Don’t run around.” After giving instructions, he hurried back to the store, fearing that Chu Yi Qiao would run away.
The appearance of the bulky Doraemon running was funny, but Chu Yi Qiao couldn’t laugh, his eyes gazed at Luo Qing Ye’s back as he ran in, ripples spreading in the bottom of his eyes.
It would be great if they didn’t have to worry about anything now.
In less than ten minutes, Luo Qing Ye came out of the store. He had changed back into his sportswear and was holding an envelope in his hand. The smile on his face never faded. He ran back to Chu Yi Qiao and then bent down to Chu Yi Qiao:
“Ge, let’s go on a date.”
“En?” Chu Yi Qiao was a little slow to react. When he met Luo Qing Ye’s expectant eyes, he realised that they had never had a formal date since they got together. Even if there was one, it was arranged by him, but that is not called a date.
Luo Qing Ye squatted on one knee in front of Chu Yi Qiao, with his hands on the chair beside him, raised his eyes and looked at Chu Yi Qiao and smiled: “I made money! I can buy you delicious food!”
The young man’s ink-like eyes reflected his appearance, as if he was the only one in the world. The joy and anticipation in his eyes was like a hot current surging into his heart, full of enthusiasm, the pure and unrestrained joy was also passed on to him.
Chu Yi Qiao raised his hand to help Luo Qing Ye wipe the sweat from his forehead: “You skipped school and came out to work just to buy me delicious food?”
“Of course not.” Luo Qing Ye raised his face, as if he was enjoying Chu Yi Qiao wiping his sweat: “I want to give you a surprise.”
When Chu Yi Qiao heard the word “surprise”, he thought of what Yuan Nian said, so he hid the smile in his eyes and suppressed the expectation in his heart: “Really? What kind of surprise can a little brat like you give me?”
Luo Qing Ye’s expression became subtle. He grabbed Chu Yi Qiao’s hand next to the chair and held his fingers tightly: “En? I’m a little brat?”
The tone of his voice rose, and there was a bit of danger and dissatisfaction in the words.
Chu Yi Qiao smiled but said nothing. He lowered his eyes and looked at Luo Qing Ye in front of him, staring intently, just looking at him, with his eyes full of pampering and smiles.
He couldn’t describe his love for Luo Qing Ye in words, but as long as this person was in front of him, he would be very happy. Even the separation when Luo Qing Ye went to school would make him more tormented than before. But he couldn’t be so greedy. As long as he could see him every week, he would be satisfied.
That’s why he was a little angry when he found out that Luo Qing Ye had skipped school.
But it was also like Yuan Nian said, he should give Luo Qing Ye space. After all, there was an age gap between the two of them. Such a gap would require them to spend a long time to break in, so he was willing to wait for Luo Qing Ye.
They were the most compatible AO partners in the world. Nothing could separate them, and time would only make them more integrated.
“Still my Lao Gong.”
When Luo Qing Ye heard Chu Yi Qiao’s “Lao Gong”, the corners of his lips instantly rose, but in order to prevent himself from smiling too obviously, he tried to suppress the arc. He pretended to be calm and cleared his throat: “Then let’s buy clothes.”
“Buy clothes? Don’t you have enough clothes? I can ask Koko—”
“I want to buy them for you myself.” Luo Qing Ye interrupted Chu Yi Qiao and looked at him with resentment: “I don’t want Koko to buy them for me. I want to buy them for you myself. Buying couple clothes, does Koko understand?”
Chu Yi Qiao was amused by Luo Qing Ye’s expression and couldn’t help laughing again.
Luo Qing Ye blushed a little: “Laugh, what are you laughing at? What I said are the most normal things between lovers. How can you always ask your secretary to buy things for you? I will buy them for you in the future.”
“Okay, you buy.”
Just when the two were about to go shopping for clothes, a little boy about four or five years old ran up to Chu Yi Qiao, hugged his thighs, and pointed at the balloon tied to Chu Yi Qiao’s wrist with his chubby little fingers.
“Uncle, your balloon is so beautiful, can you give it to me?”
The little boy holding his thigh was wearing overalls, and his flesh was white and rosy, which reminded Chu Yi Qiao of the dream he had that night. He dreamed of a pair of twins lying on him and calling him daddy, and that was enough to warm people’s hearts.
“Of course.” Chu Yi Qiao took down the balloon tied to his wrist while bending down to give the balloon to the little boy, he smiled: “Take it.”
The little boy happily ran to the adults behind him after taking the balloon. It was the two fathers who caught the little boy.
Chu Yi Qiao looked at the direction where the little boy left. The harmonious appearance of the family of three also made him look forward to it. His little baby will grow up healthily.
“Ge, do you like boys or girls?” Luo Qing Ye saw Chu Yi Qiao staring blankly in the direction of the child’s departure and put his arm around his shoulder and asked.
“I like them all.” Chu Yi Qiao turned his head to look at Luo Qing Ye: “I like them all as long as they are yours.”
Luo Qing Ye looked at Chu Yi Qiao who was close to him, and his eyes fell on Chu Yi Qiao’s lips. His throat tightened, but he could only endure it silently when he thought that this was a public place.
Chu Yi Qiao seems to be aware of what Luo Qing Ye wants to do, he withdrew his eyes and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
In a certain clothing shop—
“Ge, you should wear this yellow one. I think yellow will look good on your fair skin.”
“Too bright, I’ve never worn this colour.”
“Aiya, you should be brave enough to try new things in life. If you wear it, I’ll wear it.”
“Change the colour, I don’t wear yellow.”
“It will definitely look good on you, believe me.”
“Luo Qing Ye, I don’t think it looks good.”
“……Then it doesn’t look good.”
“Ge, then the white set will work ba.”
“Barely.”
After choosing for more than half an hour, Luo Qing Ye finally sent Chu Yi Qiao to the dressing room and picked a pair of casual sneakers for Chu Yi Qiao.
Chu Yi Qiao was unbuttoning his shirt when he saw the curtain being lifted. Luo Qing Ye walked in. He stopped unbuttoning his shirt and his eyes flickered: “Luo Qing Ye, you——”
Luo Qing Ye closed the curtain, turned around and approached Chu Yi Qiao. He raised his index finger to his lips and smiled:
“Shh, keep your voice down, don’t let anyone outside hear you.”
The handsome face of the young man was stained with a bit of ruffian spirit because of this action, but it also had a fascinating and heartwarming charm.
Chu Yi Qiao subconsciously stepped back because of Luo Qing Ye’s approach, until his back touched the mirror behind him. The slightly cool temperature through his shirt made him shudder. He raised his hand to Luo Qing Ye’s chest to prevent this guy from getting closer. His eyes under the glasses flashed with panic.
“Luo Qing Ye, this is a public changing room!” he said in a low voice.
“I know ah.” Luo Qing Ye also followed Chu Yi Qiao’s example of lowering his voice, his hand obediently holding Chu Yi Qiao’s hand against his chest: “But I want to kiss you, I wanted to just now, but there were too many people just now. Now I finally have the chance, can’t I kiss you?”
The voice between a teenager and a young man was slightly hoarse, with a tone of coquettishness and weakness, but he approached without giving in. Every word and every action touched the heartstrings vaguely, causing reverie and tingling.
“Or, I’ll help you change your clothes?” Luo Qing Ye put the hand he was holding back to Chu Yi Qiao’s heart, bringing Chu Yi Qiao’s hand to help him unbutton his shirt.
The light in the changing room was dim, and the shirt that was not completely unbuttoned revealed the beautiful collarbone pulling the lines, and the black crystal hanging on the neck was particularly conspicuous against the overly white skin.
Chu Yi Qiao let Luo Qing Ye do as he pleased.
He is an Omega, although he is an Omega of advanced age who differentiated late, but he is a normal Omega. Of course, he would have the same thoughts as Luo Qing Ye, not to mention that they have been separated for a week, and the spiritual and physical longings are equal.
The shirt was thrown on the chair at the side.
Luo Qing Ye held the white sweater he was going to buy for Chu Yi Qiao, took off his glasses, and put the sweater on for him: “After all, this is outside, it’s good that we can kiss for a while, you can kiss as long as you want after I graduate.”
When he put the sweater on Chu Yi Qiao, a cunning flashed in his eyes, and he deliberately moved in front of Chu Yi Qiao when Chu Yi Qiao was about to pull down his clothes.
When Chu Yi Qiao pulled off the sweater, Luo Qing Ye’s face suddenly enlarged in front of him, and he almost screamed in shock.
Then he was kissed by Luo Qing Ye.
The roots of his ears gradually turned red.
“……” We agreed to kiss for a short while!
Luo Qing Ye left Chu Yi Qiao’s lips as if nothing had happened, but his smile showed how satisfied he was. He tidied Chu Yi Qiao’s sweatshirt and then bent down to help Chu Yi Qiao change his pants.
“What are you doing?” Chu Yi Qiao pressed Luo Qing Ye’s shoulder, as if he could see what Luo Qing Ye was going to do: “I can do it myself.”
“No, that won’t work. If you bend over and press on the baby, it will be bad. Just stand and I’ll do it.”
Luo Qing Ye helped Chu Yi Qiao change his pants and put on his shoes.
Chu Yi Qiao didn’t think he had reached the point where he needed someone to help him change his pants and put on his shoes. Moreover, Luo Qing Ye squatting in front of him made him have a lot of thoughts. He pushed Luo Qing Ye’s head with his hand: “Xiao Ye, I……”
After counting, they seem to have not touched for more than a month.—
“Ge, do you think this is like me helping you—”
“Don’t say it!” Chu Yi Qiao bent down and covered Luo Qing Ye’s mouth with a warning look.
Luo Qing Ye thought that Chu Yi Qiao didn’t like such a joke, but then he thought about it and it was not right. Chu Yi Qiao wouldn’t mind him like this, he should like it very much.
“……Otherwise I would want to do it in the changing room.” Chu Yi Qiao lowered his eyes and let go of his hand and said.
Luo Qing Ye smiled, he knew it: “I help you.”
It’s rare that his wife made a request, so how could he not satisfy it? He didn’t want it at all some time ago, and now he wants it, so he will naturally satisfy him.
Three minutes later—
Two men wearing the same white sweater and sports suit appeared at the same time, and they were both so handsome. Many people passing by would take a few more glances and think they were too pleasing to the eyes.
The man with very white skin seemed a little unhappy, but his ears were pink, which made him look like he was in a sullen mood.
“Ge, I really don’t despise you.”
“……Don’t talk to me, I’ll calm down.”
“I think it’s quite normal, really I don’t despise it, it’s just a little bit faster……” Luo Qing Ye stretched out two fingers to pull out a minuscule gap.
Chu Yi Qiao found it hard to accept. How could he solve it with just one touch?
Chu Yi Qiao, who changed out of his suit and put on a youthful sports sweater, looked like a sulky teenager. In Luo Qing Ye’s eyes, he had never seen Chu Yi Qiao so soft. Sure enough, all abstinent men would reveal another different side when they took off their suit jackets.
So cute.
Luo Qing Ye even tricked and coaxed Chu Yi Qiao to have dinner.
Luckily, Chu Yi Qiao was not very picky about food, and he did not refuse to eat anything during his pregnancy, so Luo Qing Ye ordered the dishes smoothly.
“You will have your first prenatal checkup at 12 weeks. I will take a leave to accompany you.” Luo Qing Ye scooped up the coconut chicken in the soup and let it cool before giving it to Chu Yi Qiao: “I have told Koko not to arrange any schedule for you that day, and I’ll also go home first to accompany you the night before that day.”
Chu Yi Qiao ate and listened at the same time. He could never have imagined that Luo Qingye was a man who was more meticulous than anyone else. He himself did not even think about the prenatal checkup:
“Xiao Ye, how come you’re so good at taking care of people, you are so considerate.”
Compared to Luo Qing Ye, he is not as good as Luo Qing Ye in life except that he is stronger in career. Even the cloakroom[mfn]I’m not sure how or why he’s comparing his cloakroom with LQY……maybe its something going over my head idk. Original sentence for those curious: 就连跟了自己那么多年的衣帽间都不如骆清野来到后的这小一年[/mfn] that has been with him for so many years is not as good as Luo Qing Ye. In the past year since Luo Qing Ye came, there is nothing in every corner that Luo Qing Ye doesn’t know.
The things he can’t find and the things he forgets, Luo Qing Ye can remember them all.
“Because this is my first time as a husband, of course I have to perform the best. I want to be the best husband in the world and the best husband of Chu Yi Qiao.” Luo Qing Ye picked the most tender part of the coconut chicken for Chu Yi Qiao: “Eat it, eat more to grow more meat, otherwise the baby will take away all your nutrition.”
Chu Yi Qiao felt that sooner or later he would be soaked in a honey pot by Luo Qing Ye’s sweet words and could never escape.
He’s really worthy of Oolong Osmanthus Honey.
After dinner, Luo Qing Ye took Chu Yi Qiao to the planetarium on the fifth floor. This is a small exhibition hall, which is a starry sky exhibition of dozens of photos of the solar system. There are not many people in the exhibition hall, and the environment is very quiet, which is very suitable for strolling here after dinner.
“Why do you want to take me to see the starry sky exhibition? Do you like astronomy?”
The two walked slowly in the exhibition hall holding hands. Without the pressure of suits and leather shoes, the two did not look much different from each other.
“I just want to see if astronomy is romantic.” Luo Qing Ye took Chu Yi Qiao to a picture, which was of Pluto.
Chu Yi Qiao followed Luo Qing Ye’s gaze and looked at Pluto in the picture: “Pluto is a dwarf planet, it doesn’t belong to the big planets.”
“But it will shine even in the depths of darkness.” Luo Qing Ye pointed to a faintly visible heart on Pluto’s body: “Just like I once thought I would never see the light in my life, but I still saw it, I met you, fell in love with you, and had you, then I will no longer suffer from the past, because I have seen the light, and the past is nothing.”
“Are you going to give me a long lecture again?” Chu Yi Qiao heard what Luo Qing Ye meant, and tonight’s courtesy was particularly obvious: “I don’t see you so active at ordinary times, why are you so active today, are you afraid that I will ask you why you work part-time?”
Luo Qing Ye coughed: “No, I’m not afraid of you asking, but if you ask me later, I will definitely tell you, just don’t ask now.”
Chu Yi Qiao was just teasing him, in his heart, he was naturally curious about what Luo Qing Ye wanted to do.
They wandered aimlessly in the planetarium, which was a rare pleasure.
“Ge, I’m going to the toilet. You wait here and I’ll be back soon.”
Chu Yi Qiao didn’t doubt it: “En go.”
Luo Qing Ye dashed out.
Why was he so anxious? Of course, he passed by a jewelry store after dinner and saw a discount. It was not because he was greedy, but because he wanted to give Chu Yi Qiao this sense of ritual. He couldn’t afford the best now, but he would definitely buy the best for Chu Yi Qiao in the future.
“Hello, I would like to take a look at this ring.” Luo Qing Ye walked into the jewellery shop and walked around the display cabinets, taking a glance at a very simple platinum ring: “May I ask if there is a men’s pair ring?”
The shop assistant put the ring in front of Luo Qing Ye: “Yes, this one is the men’s pair ring.”
Luo Qing Ye picked up one of the relatively small rings and told Chu Yi Qiao’s ring size.
“This ring is exactly size 9, the other ring is size 11.”
“Okay, I’ll buy it, how much is it?”
“This pair of rings is not part of the promotions oh, because it is a limited edition……”
Luo Qing Ye spent all his money, including the money he had saved in Caesar’s Palace, on this ring. It was much more expensive than he thought, but it was about the same as the 20,000 yuan he had planned to save.
Adding the 50,000 yuan he had saved before and the money he earned from part-time work during this period, it was just enough to buy this pair of rings.
But it didn’t matter. He just wanted to give Chu Yi Qiao this surprise. He put the rings directly in his pocket and ran back upstairs full of expectations.
But just as he took out his mobile phone and put the rings in his pocket, he now had countless calls coming in, basically from Xing Ke, and 110. Just then, another call came in. It was Koko’s call. His heart skipped a beat and he picked it up.
“……Young Master, I just came back to the group to get something and found a parcel at the front desk. It was the same parcel as before. When I opened it, there was a web link and a sentence inside. It says: Chu Yi Qiao, see you at the rooftop sky garden of Yuehe Shopping Center at 9 o’clock tonight. I will book the place to wait for you. If you don’t come, everyone here will be buried with you[mfn]陪葬 (péi zàng): to accompany in burial, usually when the emperor dies, there will be people that will be buried alive to keep him company.[/mfn]. What should I do? What does this mean? It’s already 8:30!”
Luo Qing Ye listened to Koko who was about to cry on the other end of the phone. He looked at the escalator that was about to reach the fifth floor, turned around and ran down: “Call the police immediately and ask the police to contact the mall security to evacuate the crowd immediately. I’m calling Captain Xing now.”
He was the one who had relaxed and slacked off.
“Where are you? Don’t go to Yuehe Shopping Center.”
“It’s too late, we’re at Yuehe Shopping Center.”
Luo Qing Ye hung up Koko’s phone and was about to call Xing Ke, but found that Xing Ke’s phone was busy, so he hung up immediately. Then he got off the escalator and walked directly to the elevator. Now he couldn’t go back to find Chu Yi Qiao, so the safest way was to let Chu Yi Qiao evacuate with everyone else.
The moment Xing Ke’s phone call came in, he got straight to the point: “Jiang Mian Huai will be on the rooftop of Yuehe Shopping Center at 9 o’clock tonight. Please arrange police to evacuate everyone here safely. I don’t know what Jiang Mian Huai will do. I’ll go to the rooftop now.”
Xing Ke’s voice on the other end of the phone was very clear: “We are already outside Yuehe Shopping Center. We just received a call from the police saying that someone was holding a mother and child hostage on the rooftop. They are an Omega mother and child. That person is Jiang Mian Huai. So don’t go to Yuehe Shopping Center now. We have arranged snipers in dark places.”
“I’m at Yuehe Shopping Mall right now, Chu Yi Qiao is not with me, he’s at the planetarium on the fifth floor, if you come, ask him to evacuate with everyone else.”
The lift doors slowly opened and Luo Qing Ye walked in.
“Luo Qing Ye!!! Don’t mess around. There are officers[mfn]刑j: honestly not sure what this is as the ‘j’ was in English and I’m unable to guess what it could be.[/mfn] and psychologists up there. There’s still time, you don’t need to do this. You’re taking your own life as a joke, don’t you know that!!!” Xing Ke on the other end of the phone roared and asked his teammates to move out immediately.
Luo Qing Ye watched the elevator floor number gradually climb. Because he was in the elevator, the signal on the other end of the phone was a little bit bad. He held the phone tightly, and the hand at his side tightly held the ring he had just bought.
“Captain Xing, I now know Jiang Mian Huai’s game, it’s impossible to let time pass. The person he wants is not that mother and child, and it won’t be Chu Yi Qiao. His goal from start to finish was to use me to threaten Chu Yi Qiao, and if he can’t wait for what he wants, the mother and child who are innocently being held hostage will be in more danger.
“If I go up five minutes earlier, you can have five more minutes to evacuate the crowd. Trading me for the mother and son to stall him, you can have a few more minutes. And I can’t put Chu Yi Qiao in danger. He’s pregnant, and it’s less than two months.”
“……What?”
The elevator door opened with a “ding” sound, and Luo Qingye said the last sentence before hanging up the phone:
“I will temporarily leave my Omega in your care.”
