Therefore, these words naturally triggered a frenzy of shouts in the comments section.
Cheng Qing was used to the comments section being flooded with "ah"s. She calmly checked the time, confirmed that it was time for the link interaction, and began preparing to draw fans.
Ever since I connected with Mingyue that day, in subsequent live stream interactions, even when there were connection events, the computer always selected ordinary people.
There's only one problem, and that's the fan who got the draw—the problem is rather radical.
For example, I was drawn as a CP (couple) fan today.
The person who was selected a couple of days ago was a solo stan, so even if the questions were a bit radical, they could be easily resolved. Cheng Qing was already mentally prepared for the CP (couple) fans to be selected. To put it bluntly, promising eternity is all too easy.
The CP fan's name was "Eternal Promise," and when they connected, she even excitedly shouted out to the other side.
Cheng Qing comforted her, "Friend, calm down."
The promise of eternity indeed calmed down, but before she could speak, Losi, who had been washing dishes, returned. She sat down in the chair next to Cheng Qing and leaned closer to him.
This simple action elicited an excited scream from the computer.
Losi was stunned and stayed behind, then looked completely bewildered: "???"
Cheng Qing scratched his forehead, looking somewhat troubled. Dealing with such enthusiastic fans was not an easy task!
Sure enough, after calming the fan down, Losi roughly understood the situation.
However, Losi did not make things difficult for Cheng Qing, but simply sat next to him and waited for the last segment of today's live broadcast.
The news that the couple had been drawn spread almost instantly across the internet, but it wasn't just the couple fans who were paying attention to it.
The promise of eternity is a pair, but it involves people from all walks of life.
On a smaller scale, there are Luo Xi and Cheng Qing's families; on a larger scale, there are their own families and their rival companies.
Therefore, in the last 15 minutes before the live stream ended, the number of viewers in the live stream room almost exploded.
The main characters are facing off against the CP fans. In addition to the CP fans, there are also solo fans from both sides, and even fans from other groups.
Human nature is such that we love watching a spectacle.
Cheng Qing didn't notice the change in the number of people in the upper right corner. Instead, she organized her thoughts before asking the eternal promise, "Hello, I am Cheng Qing."
Luo Xi and Mu Xue also greeted them.
An eternal promise: "Ahhh, I know you all, I love you so much."
Mu Xue wagged her tail, never expecting to gain someone's affections under such a strong CP (couple) aura. It seems her popularity is still pretty good.
A promise that lasts forever: "Teacher Cheng and the princess are like parents, and Xiao Bing is like a little baby in the family. I am so happy watching this."
Mu Xue's smile froze on her face as she stared incredulously at the girl on the computer screen.
You guys are shipping couples, fine, but you've gotten so into shipping me?
Knocking on a family of three? Is that something a human being would do?
Seeing Mu Xue's shocked expression, the comment section erupted in laughter.
Cheng Qing couldn't help but chuckle. After observing for a moment and seeing that Mu Xue wasn't angry, he quickly changed the subject.
She asked the promise of forever, "Aren't you at work?"
An eternal promise: "Go!"
Cheng Qing was taken aback: "Break time?" That makes sense. To make the interactive live stream more interesting, that's why the live stream time is set from 12 o'clock to 1 o'clock.
This is so that everyone can have more opportunities to interact during their lunch break.
The eternal promise nodded in agreement, which was taken as an admission: "Although that's the case, we've been ordering takeout and haven't been eating out."
Cheng Qing nodded: "Then go eat! It's not convenient to talk in the office."
The eternal promise immediately moved closer to the camera and said, "It's so convenient!!! It's so convenient!!! My colleagues and I are shipping you two together! They're all sitting behind me watching you now."
Cheng Qing choked, her eyes widening slightly, and sure enough, she noticed some corners of clothing peeking out from the corner of the video on the other side.
Cheng Qing twitched her lips, stopped pursuing the matter, and got to the point, asking, "What do you want to know?"
With a shy smile, she finally asked, "Teacher Cheng, I want to ask if you like Luo Xi? I mean, the kind of liking that's romantic."
[Good job, sister!]
[Waaaaah, is it this exciting right from the start?]
No wonder you're a CP fan, you hit the nail on the head.
These CP fans even defined their liking directly as being a couple, making it difficult for Cheng Qing to change the subject and smooth things over.
For a moment, the three celebrities in the camera's view fell silent...
Instead of hearing a negative answer, the promise of eternity became excited, smiling as it asked, "What's wrong? Is it hard to answer?"
If there's something going on, it's hard to answer; if there isn't, she would have denied it long ago. Because of this, she firmly believes that Cheng Qing and Luo Xi are definitely having an affair.
Cheng Qing took a breath and said with a slight toothache, "Wait for the official announcement."
Mu Xue: "..."
Lossie: "...Official announcement?"
Author's Note:
Oh my god! I need to adjust my schedule; I'm trying to fix it while sleeping. I don't think it's done well _(:з」∠)_
Chapter 114
[Ahhhhh, Teacher Cheng is truly Teacher Cheng! He just goes for it!!!]
【Aaaaaaah, I'm waiting, I'm waiting!!!】
[Teacher Cheng, I believe in you.]
Don't lie to me! It's okay if it's a "once-in-a-lifetime" series.
Cheng Qing looked at the suddenly lively comment section with a puzzled expression, when a message from Cheng Rong popped up on her phone.
Cheng Rong: What's the difference between this and admitting it?
Cheng Qing was startled. She glanced at the comments section and then turned to look at Luo Xi, only to see that Luo Xi was also blushing and giving her a coquettish look.
Cheng Qing: "..." He didn't think much when he said it.
However, the fact that Cheng Qing could utter this answer so readily revealed his true feelings.
She genuinely wanted to be with Losi, and her goal was marriage. The President once said that dating without the intention of marriage is immoral.
Cheng Qing had never been in a relationship, but she had heard from colleagues that modern people no longer fully adhere to this view on love.
A free view of love is more in line with the current public sentiment.
But Cheng Qing was different. Her process of getting to know Luo Xi and falling in love was so simple, yet she genuinely hoped that the two of them could spend the rest of their lives together.
Therefore, Cheng Qing suddenly understood what the saying "dating without the intention of marriage is just playing around" meant.
If you truly love someone, how could you not want to give them a wonderful wedding once you're together?
Cheng Qing felt the same way, so when the promise of forever was pushed to this corner, Cheng Qing thought that she would not respond directly and would wait until the official announcement to talk about any problems!
Let's wait for the official announcement!
Such a simple answer, given from the heart, unexpectedly turned into an indirect admission?
Cheng Qing stroked his chin, somewhat puzzled: So, is this really a response?
Ding! Cheng Rong sent another message: Have you discussed this matter with their agent?
Cheng Qing was startled and immediately coughed, saying, "Everyone, please don't overthink it." Then he turned to Luo Xi and said, "I'll be leaving for a bit. You guys turn off the live stream at 1 o'clock."
As he spoke, ignoring the people making fun of him in the comments section, he picked up his phone and went outside.
Sure enough, as soon as he got outside, he received a call from Fang Silei.
Fang Silei's tone held a hint of unspoken worry: "Cheng Qing, are you serious?"
Cheng Qing: "Well, I'm also sorry. Although I was serious, I didn't intend to admit it directly in the live stream."
Fang Silei wasn't worried about the "official announcement" Cheng Qing mentioned, but rather about something else.
Therefore, her voice betrayed some worry: "That's alright, as long as it's not explicitly stated, it can all be smoothed over. But you know, Losi is a sentimental person. I've met you a couple of times, and I believe you feel the same way. So, how serious are you about this relationship?"
Fang Silei sighed and still reminded her, "If you have even the slightest hesitation, don't give Luo Xi such high hopes. She's... a bit stubborn, she can't get things going on one step at a time."
Cheng Qing pondered for a moment and said, "I did not hesitate."
He had already hesitated about everything he needed to before coming to find Losi.
Cheng Qing was delighted to learn that same-sex marriage was legal, but she also gave herself time to understand more clearly whether she, as a woman, could truly accept another woman.
After all, Cheng Qing didn't know she was attracted to women from the beginning. Therefore, after same-sex marriage became legal, she needed time to adjust. Only after she understood her own heart could she be qualified to come back.
Before she came, she already knew that she liked Losi, so she could accept Losi.
She also understands that now, when faced with the question, "Do I truly want to be with Losi?", she has no reason to hesitate.
I glanced up at the yard; the drizzling rain had soaked the cement floor, and four fish that I'd caught yesterday were left in the water tank by the door, sinking to the bottom with a splash. In the nearby chicken coop, the hens had all scurried into the small thatched hut the homeowner had built.
Raindrops fell on the green leaves of the vegetable garden behind the house, quenching their thirst after several days of drought.
The distant mountains resemble a hazy ink painting.
The sound of rain falling on everything in the world is like the most beautiful melody.
"Even now..." Cheng Qing said in a hoarse voice, "I can propose anytime."
The weight of those words was a promise. Cheng Qing wasn't playing with emotions, nor was she doing it for the sake of traffic.
Fang Silei: "..." No need for that.
There was no response from the other end, so Cheng Qing chuckled softly: "Of course, I know she still has her career. So, I will cooperate with her. After all, I've also thought that if we can't get married, could I have a relationship with her for a lifetime?"
At that time, Cheng Qing did not know that same-sex marriage was legal. When she was in unbearable pain at night, she would turn around and look at Luo Xi's sleeping profile. She had thought about breaking through the constraints of the world and going to live a life of just the two of them with her.
However, the greatest distance between two people of the same sex who love each other is "conventionality." Breaking through convention affects not only the two individuals, but also their two families.
Cheng Qing only understood the step that many gay couples dared not take after experiencing it herself. It was because of love that she had reservations. It was because of her deep love that she was so anxious and insecure.
