The video of Song Yushi and Qi Ke’s duet of 《I Love You》 was reposted millions of times on Weibo, with viewership reaching over twenty million. Big data showed that the three most discussed terms from the gala were: #QiYu#, #ILoveYou#, #TheTruthIsReal#
“Even if I’m fake, Qi Yu has to be real!” a CP fan passionately declared.
And amidst this immense public attention, the final two episodes of 《30 Days of Cohabitation Life》 finally began filming.
【@MitangJuziQY: |Going to work on 30 Days of Cohabitation Life| The last episode. Today, I’ll also wear a pretty little dress to see the person I like, walking in the sunlight!】
【As a passerby, I heard the news and came for the sugar. The newlyweds just finished their wedding, are they on their honeymoon? Couple outfits! Those are couple outfits, right!】
【I’ve lived long enough to see this. If they didn’t start filming soon, I really thought this damn show was going to run out of money. Speechless! Just speechless!】
【Production Team: If we don’t film soon, we’ll really have no more footage.】
If we don’t film soon, we’ll really have no more footage.
The production team, which could never gather all the guests, wailed like this, but their wailing wasn’t very sincere. After all, the show had three couples (?) that all generated buzz. The less they filmed, the more the fans craved it. The more they craved it, the more the show had to keep them hanging. But they couldn’t keep them hanging for too long, so they always fed them a little something periodically.
But this time, if they didn’t film soon, the lease on the villa would really expire!
The director’s team was bustling about the villa, opening all the curtains to let sunlight stream into the spotlessly clean rooms. The camera panned across, then zoomed in for a close-up.
Everything presented was beautiful.
As usual, Song Yushi arrived first. She got out of the car at the entrance of the residential complex with Candy on a leash, walking leisurely and greeting the surrounding fans. A fan shouted, “Candy has grown so much!”
Puppies grow fast, and Candy was a large breed. Not having seen her for a month or two, the change was huge.
Who knew what Meng Ying had been feeding her.
Song Yushi called out to Candy, “Candy, slow down!”
The fans joined in the teasing, “Yeah, yeah, slow down, we want to spend more time with Yushi!”
The CP fans teased even more fiercely, “Baby Candy, run slower, wait for Teacher Qi!”
Other fans: Already resigned to it.
Song Yushi heard this and couldn’t help but slow her pace a little, turning back to look. Qi Ke had just sent her a message five minutes ago, saying she was rushing over from another city and might be a bit late.
She clearly knew she wouldn’t appear right now.
But she still hoped.
Song Yushi lowered her head and smiled, laughing at her own girlish thoughts that she couldn’t hide.
Fans: Ooh, baby is secretly smiling, so cute, so cute, it really looks like she’s in love!!!
When Song Yushi arrived, no other guests were there yet. Seeing that it was still early, she tied on an apron, went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Qi Ke, and first took a picture: Breakfast, frozen dumplings.
Qi Ke replied in a second: Almost there! Save some for me!
Although Qi Ke said she was almost there, it was nearly an hour before she arrived. Downstairs, she was delayed for a while by Chen Sheng. It had been a long time, and Chen Sheng was still a bit dazed seeing Qi Ke.
“Chen Sheng, morning.” Qi Ke had originally intended to rush straight upstairs, but after a thought, she stopped.
The camera was filming brightly. Chen Sheng, being a proper idol, immediately returned a smile, full of energy, “Teacher Qi, good morning! Just arrived?”
Qi Ke nodded, raised her hand, and turned off the nearest camera.
Chen Sheng: “?”
Qi Ke raised her hand again and turned off Chen Sheng’s microphone.
Chen Sheng: “??”
Qi Ke raised her voice, “Don’t edit this part in. I’m going to have a heart-to-heart with Chen Sheng.”
Chen Sheng: “???”
Don’t come over here!
Qi Ke smiled. “Don’t be scared. People who don’t know might think I’m going to do something to you. That wouldn’t be good if it got out.” She flicked her hair and asked, “You know, right?”
Chen Sheng was stunned for a moment. “Know what?”
That Qi Ke visited Song Yushi on set despite her busy schedule? Or that she released a new song, a sweet duet? That Zhong Yi’s livestream showed the two of them being all lovey-dovey, or that they turned the mid-year gala into a wedding scene?
There were too many sweet moments. Chen Sheng didn’t know what Qi Ke was talking about, so he just gave a vague “ah.”
Qi Ke nodded. “That’s right, we did get back together.”
Chen Sheng: “???”
Chen Sheng: “!!!”
Chen Sheng: “…………”
He was shattered.
Chen Sheng stammered, “Y-y-y… you… when are you breaking up?”
“Hey,” Qi Ke looked displeased. “Look at you, you have no awareness as a fan. Don’t you want your idol to be happy?”
Chen Sheng said dejectedly, “…I’d still rather she be happy with me.”
Qi Ke narrowed her eyes. “Young man, your thoughts are very dangerous.”
Chen Sheng: “Pretend I didn’t say anything! My opinion isn’t important!”
Qi Ke nodded. “Indeed.”
Then she happily turned and dashed upstairs to find her girlfriend.
Chen Sheng watched her retreating figure.
He thought to himself, he wondered if he joined the Qi Yu Super Topic now, if he could become a big shot in the Super Topic by the time they went public.
Qi Ke happily bounded up to the third floor. Just as she pushed the door open, her phone suddenly rang. Her mic was already off, and the doorway wasn’t a key area, so there was no sound equipment. Thus, she fearlessly swiped to answer.
The call was from Sister Ming.
Sister Ming: “The press releases are being written, they’re being written! Bear with it! Don’t show off your affection, don’t expose yourselves! I’m begging you!”
Qi Ke gripped the doorknob, troubled.
Sister Ming: “Heh heh, I’ve already spoken to Yushi. She said she understands my work and will cooperate with me.”
Qi Ke sighed. “Sister Ming, you’re putting me in a difficult position.”
Sister Ming: “?” You have the nerve to say that?
“Look.” Since she couldn’t hug her girlfriend even if she went in, Qi Ke decided not to rush and reasoned with Sister Ming. “When I first started filming this show, Yushi and I were old lovers meeting again, filled with jealousy, and you wanted us to show affection. Now, for the last recording of this show, we’ve reconciled and are all lovey-dovey, and you want us to pretend we don’t know each other? Look, is this something a human would do?”
Sister Ming: “……”
It was so well-reasoned that she actually didn’t know how to refute it.
Qi Ke, exasperated, said, “Forget it, forget it. It’s not easy for you either. I have to work, so I’m not chatting with you anymore. Hanging up.”
The person whose call was hung up on inexplicably brought the phone to her eyes and looked at it: “……”
Something felt strange!
Meanwhile, at the recording site, Qi Ke pushed open the door.
Song Yushi was currently sitting on the sofa watching TV, a variety show suitable for passing the time. She heard the door open, turned her head, and her eyes met Qi Ke’s.
The two of them spoke at the same time.
“Hello, Teacher Qi.”
“Hello, Teacher Song.”
A whole set of pleasantries.
“Long time no see, it’s really been a long time.”
It definitely wasn’t me lying in your bed two days ago.
“How have you been lately? Still busy?”
The one who’s busy spinning like a top and still has to date is definitely not her.
“I’m okay, just so-so busy. Filming must have been tough for Teacher Song, right?”
“It was alright, all for the sake of presenting a good production. I listened to your new album, it’s really good.”
“Right? I’ll send you a copy when the physical album comes out.”
“I’ll send you movie tickets when the film is released.”
“Okay!”
“Mhm!”
Silence.
Director’s Team: “…………”
No, wait, the wedding that shocked the entertainment industry a few days ago, the viral performance of 《I Love You》, the main characters were them, right? Why are they pretending not to know each other! Show me some affection!
Song Yushi and Qi Ke sat silently on the sofa, watching the variety show together.
Director’s Team: “……”
I invited you two here to film a variety show!!!
After a while of awkwardness, the production team, afraid the atmosphere would freeze solid, quickly sent a staff member over with a mission card. Qi Ke took the card and read:
“Today, you will be dropped off by the production team at Chunshan Road Kindergarten’s Little Class 2 to complete the duties of a kindergarten teacher. This will be broadcast live (with the consent of the children and parents). You must receive over fifty million likes to complete the mission (you cannot ask for likes) to obtain tickets to the evening banquet.”
Song Yushi: “……”
Qi Ke: “……”
Kids, a group of kids, their heads were already starting to hurt.
Qi Ke said, “Actually, for us female celebrities, whether we eat dinner or not isn’t that important, right?”
Song Yushi nodded. “We have to maintain our figures.”
They exchanged a look.
Qi Ke stood up. “Director, today’s recording ends here!”
Joking aside, these things were written in the contract; they couldn’t just quit whenever they wanted. But this mission was such a headache that Song Yushi and Qi Ke considered swapping with another group. As it turned out, the three groups met in the first-floor living room.
Couple Group: Senior Class.
Best Bros Group: Middle Class.
Besties Group: Junior Class.
The three groups of guests: “……”
Production team, as expected of you, you’re ruthless!
The junior class at Chunshan Road Kindergarten had a total of 28 children. They all looked adorable and exquisitely carved like jade, but put them together and they could blow the roof off.
Qi Ke patted a tambourine and began to tap it rhythmically. Miraculously, the children actually started clapping along to her rhythm and quieted down.
Song Yushi silently gave a thumbs-up from the back of the classroom.
Then she started the livestream.
Qi Ke had calmed down most of the children, but one child was still crying loudly because they had been separated from their parents. The lead teacher said it was class time now and she would take over, asking Qi Ke and Song Yushi to comfort that child.
Qi Ke breathed a sigh of relief and quickly carried the child over to find Song Yushi.
So when the fans followed the automatically popped-up link from Song Yushi’s livestream and entered, what they saw was: Song Yushi, Qi Ke, and an adorable little kid with pigtails, crying so hard that a snot bubble had formed.
Fans: !!!
After starting the livestream, Song Yushi handed her phone to a staff member and joined Qi Ke in comforting the child. The little one was sobbing, but liked the pretty big sisters. Coaxed by their gentle voices, the child hiccuped, “Wuwuwu, I want to go home.”
Song Yushi held the child and coaxed her in a low voice. Qi Ke watched from the side, her eyes burning with envy: Envious, right now she was just envious.
Fans in the livestream: I must be watching some kind of parenting show!
CP Fans: So my CP’s appearance at the gala two days ago really was a wedding scene??
Hardcore Shippers: Did this CP just skip “Let’s Fall in Love” and “Let’s Get Married” and go straight to “Mom is a Superman”???
#SongYushiQiKeLivestreamingWithKid# went straight to the hot search list.
By the time the discussion volume was approaching thirty million, the production team slowly issued a clarification. But by then, the number of likes in Song Yushi and Qi Ke’s livestream had already surpassed forty-five million.
Song Yushi and Qi Ke went through a long series of outdoor activities, lunch, a post-meal walk, and helping every child fall asleep, before finally getting a moment to breathe.
“Teacher Song… Qian Duoduo wants you…”
The lead teacher shouted from the other side.
Teacher Qi: “Teacher Song, she’s calling for you.”
Teacher Song: “I’m dead.”
Teacher Qi: “…The child is still here!”
Teacher Song looked up at her and pulled her to her feet. Qian Duoduo was the little girl who had cried the hardest that morning. By now, she was very attached to Song Yushi and wanted Song Yushi to stay with her while she slept.
The little girl lay on her small bed, poking Song Yushi’s face with her little finger and giggling. “Teacher Song is pretty, you look like my mommy.”
Qi Ke squatted down seriously by Qian Duoduo’s bed and instructed her, “You can’t call her Mommy.”
Qian Duoduo asked innocently, “Why not, Teacher Qi?”
Qi Ke choked for a moment. “…You call her Mommy, but you call me Teacher Qi?”
Qian Duoduo blinked. “Then what should I call you?”
Qi Ke hesitated for a moment. “…Stepmom?”
