Chapter 76 – History’s Strongest National CP[7]
The curtains smoothly fell on the Move My Heart concert[1]; the profit from it was quite satisfactory. When Ding Meng received the notice for remittance, she held her phone laughing for two straight minutes.
Qiao Yichen’s promise to take her to Chuanchuan had also been accomplished; Ding Meng felt her life had reached perfection.
However, Qiao Yichen felt that there was still a bit more to be done.
When Qiao Yichen abducted Ding Meng to the bed, he let out an evil laugh.
Ding Meng couldn’t help but scrunch her eyebrows, feeling her scalp tingle from his laughter: “What do you want?”
Qiao Yichen laughingly responded: “Is what I’m expressing now not clear enough for you to figure it out?”
Ding Meng: “…”
No, it was certainly clear, but… “Why are you smiling so obscenely?”
Qiao Yichen’s smile stiffened for a moment: “You call this obscene? You haven’t seen anything yet.”
Ding Meng: “…”
Qiao Yichen leaned his body down, the tip of his nose touching hers. He whispered: “Wife, do you remember I mentioned that I’m still lacking a child?”
Ding Meng’s lips quivered and was about to speak up but was interrupted by Qiao Yichen: “Now that the concert is done, we can fulfill the promise with grandmother; give her a great grandson to hold within three years.”
Ding Meng spoke up: “It was you who agreed to that.” And she did not.
Qiao Yichen let out a sigh, looking at her: “But I can’t finish the task on my own, I’m in need of your cooperation.”
Ding Meng pondered a bit, then saying: “All right. If you can guarantee a handsome little Goudan, I’ll cooperate.”
Qiao Yichen was rendered speechless.
He can definitely guarantee a handsome child, but a little Goudan… what if it was a girl!
“Would having a little princess be bad?” He pecked Ding Meng’s lips and whispered.
Ding Meng did not compromise under Qiao Yichen’s sly attack, firmly responding: “I want a handsome little Goudan.”
Qiao Yichen: “…”
During times like these, the wife’s words are king.[2]
He then chuckled: “All right, then let us have a handsome little Goudan.”
However Qiao Yichen did not for once take this to heart.
Thus, in the end, Ding Meng gave birth to a lovely little princess.
The little princess’s name was Qiao Ruimeng[3], personally named by Qiao Yichen.
He originally wanted to name her Qiao Aimeng[4], but was then forced to get rid of the idea by Ding Meng with a pair of scissors in hand.
The vicious Big Producer Qiao treated his little princess like a heavenly pet. The long haired little Rui Rui had grown up to be considerably cute in which Qiao Yichen would buy numerous beautiful skirts for her, snap pictures of her at every moment, and upload the images onto Weibo.
As a result, the Evil Dog Torturing Pair began their sharenting.[6]
However, since little Rui Rui’s face was so cute, users on the net didn’t mind the couple showing off their child; it was a sight for sore eyes. Every time Qiao Yichen would upload an image of Rui Rui, sentences of praises would swarm in—
How cute! How beautiful! How refined! Just like a doll!
Over the course of this time, the vanity of sharenting brought about unprecedented satisfaction.
Under Qiao Yichen’s spur, other celebrities who also had babies did not want to lose, gradually joining in on the sharenting. Even the father of a particular sheltered child, the eternally strict Emperor Mo, also uploaded an image of his son during his birthday.
As a result of this, the entire net exploded; everyone frolicked at the image of the little Emperor Mo. Eventually, this gave birth to a new national CP.[7]
Rui Rui.
Mo Chenrui and Qiao Ruimeng.
Don’t ask why, the users online said that they were naturally shipped in accordance to their level of attractiveness.
The internet went into an uproar; of course Big Producer Qiao would also find out this matter. In regards to how his own daughter had been unwarrantedly matched with Mo Chenrui, Big Producer Qiao gave a scoff.
Hold up, don’t think that handsomeness alone satisfies the requirements to marry our little princess, he will not allow his daughter to marry at such a young age. ╭(╯^╰)╮
What Qiao Yichen didn’t end up thinking was that Emperor Mo would be one step ahead of him, posting a statement regarding to this matter.
Mo Zhen V: We have already arranged a marriage partner for our son, please don’t have anymore unrealistic fantasies towards our son. [Smile]
Once Mo Zhen posted this, the internet experienced a torrential wave. One of the unhappiest, was our Big Producer Qiao.
What does Mo Zhen mean with his recent post? Don’t think that just because he think he’s Emperor that he could bully our little princess. Rui Rui also can’t stand your son!
Thus, Qiao Yichen quickly typed a post of his own.
Qiao Yichen V : Our family’s little princess shall only be married off to the world’s best man, please don’t have anymore unrealistic fantasies towards our daughter. [Smile]
Once this was posted, everyone was taken aback, then began letting out regretful sighs one after the other.
This is a like a modern Capulet and Montague! Romeo and Juliet were separated from their families just as so!
This is simply unbearable.
As a result, writers began writing bittersweet love stories, artists began drawing sorrowful comic strips. And those who were neither, diligently gave those writers and artists their likes.
Mo Zhen: “…”
Qiao Yichen: “…”
The two felt that there were people out there who had too much free time.
They have free time, sure, but why is it that in each and every one of those comic strips and short stories, the two of them were always the villains?
Furthermore our male and female protagonists, little Mo Chenrui and Qiao Ruimeng, haven’t even met each other in real life yet!
While Ding Meng was lurking on Weibo, she spotted a post titled “The Most Attractive National CP Selected By Users”. When she clicked on the post, she felt that she had accidentally opened a door to a whole new world.
She felt that everyone was being quite foolish, including Mo Zhen and Qiao Yichen.
When she returned home, Ding Meng noticed that Qiao Yichen once again bought two new skirts, just about to dress it on little Rui Rui. Ding Meng leaned on the door and released a sigh: “Goudan, you now only give skirts to our daughter. You no longer buy any for me.”
When Qiao Ruimeng spotted Ding Meng, she softly sounded out: “Mama.[8]”
Ding Meng’s entire heart melted under little Rui Rui’s voice. She went up and gave her hugs and kisses: “It is only Rui Rui that loves Mama.”
Qiao Ruimeng giggled, staying in her mother’s embrace.
Qiao Yichen patted his daughter’s head, looking at Ding Meng: “My wife wants a skirt? How about we go out to buy one tomorrow?”
Ding Meng gave a snort: “Not the least bit sincere.”
Qiao Ruimeng tilted her head up and peeked at Ding Meng: “Mama wants a skirt? How about Rui Rui gives you one? Rui Rui has many skirts, more than she can wear.”
Ding Meng: “…”
Is her own daughter naturally blackhearted? No no, she surely had good intentions, Rui Rui is really thinking of giving her one of her dresses!
Qiao Yichen let out a laugh: “But Rui Rui’s dresses are too small for Mama.”
Qiao Ruimeng seemed to have been hit with realization of this crucial problem. She frowned a bit, but cheerily spoke out immediately after: “Ah, in a story Papa read to me before, wasn’t there a medicine to make people smaller? Just give it to Mama and she can turn small!”
Ding Meng blinked her eyes twice: “A medicine to make people smaller? Qiao Yichen, you actually read Conan to our daughter? Such a bloody story!”[9]
Qiao Yichen gave her a speechless look: “What I read was 《Alice in Wonderland》, you ought to read less bloody stories.”
Ding Meng: “…”
Qiao Ruimeng gave a curious look towards Qiao Yichen: “Papa, what is Conan? Does he also turn small?”
Qiao Yichen responded: “Uh-huh, he turns small by bad people.”
Qiao Ruimeng then said: “Rui Rui is not a bad person, Rui Rui will not turn Mama small anymore.”
Qiao Yichen laughed: “Then how about we make your skirts bigger?”
“Yup yup.” Qiao Ruimeng excitedly picked out a skirt from her collection, handing it over to Qiao Yichen, “This is Rui Rui’s favourite skirt. Papa, hurry and make it bigger for Mama!”
Qiao Yichen planted a kiss on Rui Rui’s forehead: “Papa’s magic has all been used up for the day, I can only transform it tomorrow. Rui Rui should first go to sleep. Once you wake up Mama will have her skirt.”
Nearby, Ding Meng eyes sprung out[10]. In reality what he’s saying is all nonsense!
Qiao Ruimeng obediently answered: “Okay.”
Qiao Yichen then escorted Rui Rui back to her room. It was only until she fell asleep did Qiao Yichen then returned to his own bedroom.
Ding Meng already finished showering and was on her tablet. Qiao Yichen walked up and embraced her, giving kisses to her earlobe: “Wife, tomorrow I will accompany you to buy a skirt, good?
Ding Meng lightly struck his chest with her elbow: “Go away, I’m not Rui Rui. Don’t use your coaxing tone on me.”
Qiao Yichen quietly laughed, then went and nabbed away her tablet. He lightly exerted pressure to press her onto his body: “Then how about I change my method of coaxing, en?”
Ding Meng: “…”
Not waiting for her response, Qiao Yichen commenced “coaxing” his wife.
After a round, Ding Meng rested on Qiao Yichen’s chest, letting out a lethargic voice: “In the future, you should stop uploading too many pictures of Rui Rui. I don’t want her to live her childhood recognized by everyone around her.”
Qiao Yichen embraced his wife, both body and mind having attained a sense a satisfaction. He then bit on Ding Meng’s neck, softly speaking: “I know. Once Rui Rui starts going to school I’ll stop uploading pictures of her.”
Ding Meng nodded her head, saying nothing. Although Qiao Yichen uploads pictures of Rui Rui on Weibo from time to time, but whenever TV stations wishes to invite Rui Rui for a program he would immediately refuse. Ding Meng was aware of his propriety.
“However, Rui Rui has a very good voice. Maybe in the future she’ll create a new era of music just like you.”
Ding Meng responded: “Wait until she grows up, she still has to go through puberty.”
Qiao Yichen chuckled. His hand then mischievously began moving.
Ding Meng silently looked up at him. Qiao Yichen kissed her face for a bit, asking: “Wife, do you still want a handsome little Goudan?”
Hearing this line, Ding Meng raised an eyebrow: “You tricked me once, and you still plan to trick me another time?”
Qiao Yichen laughed: “This time I’m positive it’ll be a handsome little Goudan.”
And absolutely more handsome than Mo Zhen’s son!
[1]:檬动我心演唱会顺利落下帷幕 (I’m not 100% sure I translated it right, but apparently there was a name for the concert? I mean it explains the title from the last chapter… I probably overlooked mention of it from the previous chapters.)
[2]:这种时候，当然是老婆说什么就是什么。(Not sure how to word this…Basically it’s saying that the wife’s words can’t be argued against.)
[3]:小公主的名字叫乔芮檬 (To be honest, I have no idea how chinese names work haha… So rather than Qiao Ruimeng, it may be Qiao Rui Meng. Hopefully someone can help me with this qwq)
[4]:乔爱檬 (Qiao Aimeng can also be read as “Qiao (Yichen) likes (Ding) Meng” out of context. Ai = Love)
[5]:毒舌的乔大制作人对于自家的小公主，那是往天上宠的 (Absolutely confused what this means)
[6]:于是昔日的虐狗双怪变成了如今的晒娃狂魔 (Wording this is quite difficult… It’s more or less saying that the evil dog torturing pair turned into “demonic” people who likes showing off their baby…?)
[7]:Apparently CP means “Movie Couple”, a slang in the Japanese language…?
[8]:妈妈 (When saying this in Chinese, it sounds more or less like Mama. the word itself also means Mama. But when spoken by, let’s say an adult, it is better to be translated as “Mother”. And as far as I know, 妈妈 is the only word for mother, mama, mum, mom, and so on. I chose to translate it as Mama considering Ruimeng’s age (which shouldn’t be old at all… right?))
[9]:Detective Conan (or referred to as just “Conan” by Ding Meng) is a story (Manga and Anime) about a genius high school detective who ends up being drugged by some evil organization and is transformed to a kid as a result of that. Though it’s not really bloody (in the Manga at least), people do get killed and corpses are shown after all as that the series is filled with murder mysteries, so it would certainly be too much for a young kid.
[10]:抽了抽眼角 (Not sure what this is implying… I thought it might be referring to how characters in cartoons sometimes have their eyes springing out when they’re surprised.)
