My Psycho Yandere Actress O and I Became a Hit on a Dating Reality Show with Our Baby [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 45

Chapter 45: (Seeking Pre-orders) ‘Teacher Tong, Your Core Strength Is So Good, How About Five Times Tonight?’ Public Displays of Affection, Whispering Sweet Nothings and Biting Her Ear, The Sweetest Couple on the Reality Show, But Their Daughter Is in Danger?!

— Ahhh, Zhou Zhou, be careful!!!

— Li Jing really isn’t a good person!!! I’m so mad!

— How can someone be like this? If she does this, how can she even participate in the second round? It’s so infuriating!

— Li Jing did that on purpose. She’s just an ungrateful wolf!

Although Tong Zhou had her haters in the comments, many people still liked her. Some who liked Yueyue also came to love Tong Zhou because of her. Plus, Tong Zhou had had no controversies recently, and the new role she played was so impressive. It was impossible to hate her now. Especially when what Li Jing did was so clearly on purpose for everyone to see.

“Mommy Zhou Zhou… I… Yueyue is coming to save you!” Yueyue was so nervous, seeing her mommy about to fall. She was about to rush over and pull Tong Zhou back.

Mu Nan Jia, however, felt that if Yueyue did that, it might make Tong Zhou reckless and the situation would be even worse. So she hugged her and moved to the side. “Trust your Mommy Zhou Zhou.”

Tong Zhou really didn’t expect Li Jing to do something like this in front of everyone. Fortunately, she was prepared. When the other woman pushed her, she immediately used the moment to step to the side. So, while it looked like Li Jing really hit Tong Zhou, she didn’t. However, Tong Zhou pretended she was about to fall, flailing in mid-air. She reached out and “accidentally” grabbed Li Jing’s arm, and without a second thought, she used her strength to pull her into the lake!

With a loud “splash,” Li Jing couldn’t dodge in time and fell straight into the lake, splashing a lot of water. Tong Zhou immediately feigned a gasp. “Teacher Li Jing… why did you jump in yourself?!”

— Hahahaha! She’s so cunning, lol, save me~

— I love this so much! I love this giving her a taste of her own medicine!!!

— There’s nothing better than seeing a bad person get what they deserve, especially using the very method she used to harm others!

The comments were full of praise for Tong Zhou. After all, Tong Zhou hadn’t done anything to deserve such unprovoked trouble.

“Tong Zhou… did you do that on purpose?!” Li Jing, who fell face-first into the mud, was covered in muck. She was completely unrecognizable and looked pathetic. The first thing she did after climbing out of the mud was yell at Tong Zhou, completely ignoring her own image. She was truly furious.

“Were you trying to hit me just now? If you did it on purpose, then I did too,” Tong Zhou said with a smile, not hiding her emotions at all. She even stuck her tongue out at her.

“You… I just accidentally touched you! Did you have to push me down?!”

“Li Jing, I really don’t know why you’ve gotten so much dumber,” Tong Zhou said, feeling baffled. “With so many cameras on us, it’s clear who’s right and who’s wrong. Do you really think you need to argue?”

“If I were you, I would just admit my mistake. Maybe I would be generous and give you a hand. Otherwise… you can just stay in the mud and cool off.”

— So badass.

— This arrogant, overbearing Alpha persona is so likable!

— Was Tong Zhou confused before? That look of her with her chin raised, looking down on everyone else like they’re trash… I’m instantly in love! I can forgive anything she’s done wrong, seriously.

— My darling Zhou has finally been discovered. My feelings are complicated, boohoo~

“Mommy Zhou Zhou… are you okay?” Yueyue immediately came over holding Mu Nan Jia’s hand, still looking at her worriedly, afraid that something had happened to her.

“I’m fine, Yueyue, don’t worry.” Tong Zhou reached out and stroked her head to comfort her.

“Then… will you be mad that Mommy Jiajia and I didn’t come to save you?” Yueyue put her little hand on her heart, looking sad. “I… I was so nervous… my little heart was thumping like a balloon, thumping and squeezing.”

“You and your Mommy Jiajia just have to protect yourselves. You don’t have to worry about me.” Tong Zhou said this, then picked her up and gently patted her back to let her know she was okay.

Mu Nan Jia watched from the side. The expression on her face wasn’t very good, but she didn’t step forward to interrupt them. But the feeling she gave off… was still a little strange.

— Tsk, why isn’t Tong Zhou going to comfort Jiajia? Can’t she see that her hands are clenched into fists?!

— No, but Mu Nan Jia didn’t help when she saw Zhou Zhou was in danger, right? She just stood there with the kid… Is that something a person would do?

— Even if she went, would she really be able to help? She would just get in the way! I think what Jia Jia did was very rational. If I were Tong Zhou, I would cherish her.

— You must be a hater of Tong Zhou!

For some reason, the comments started a heated debate about whether Mu Nan Jia should have helped. The discussion was so strange that people didn’t know what to say.

On the other hand, the host grabbed the core of the issue. After Li Jing struggled to climb out and went to change, and before the other guests were ready to get into the water, the host directly called out to Mu Nan Jia. “Jiajia, the comments are all discussing why you didn’t help Teacher Tong. Why is that?”

“Because…” Mu Nan Jia faced the camera and blinked. After saying two words, she stopped. “This reason… I can only tell Teacher Tong Zhou.” She then looked at Tong Zhou and smiled slightly at her.

“So mysterious? Is there anything our VIP users can’t know?” The host felt his intuition was right. This was a perfect point of drama. Even if Mu Nan Jia didn’t answer in the end, it would make the whole romance show seem sweeter.

“If I told everyone the real reason, Teacher Tong Zhou would definitely get angry at me,” Mu Nan Jia said with some distress. “Teacher Tong Zhou is very hard to soothe when she’s angry. I can’t take that risk.”

“Oh? Teacher Tong, you don’t seem like a person with such a bad temper?” The host naturally had to call out Tong Zhou, too.

“Oh no, now you all know I have a bad temper,” Tong Zhou didn’t deny it and just went along with the host. “So don’t mess with me, or I don’t know what I might do.”

— A great use of ‘retreating to advance’!

— Words are truly an art form.

— It just goes to show that there were too many haters of Tong Zhou before. Maybe she couldn’t deal with them then, but it’s different now.

— We’ve been talking for a long time, but we still don’t know what their relationship is! Whose daughter is Yueyue?!

The host felt the topic had been discussed enough and asked each group to stand in their designated spots, ready to get into the water to dig for lotus roots. Today’s weather was good, not too sunny, and with all the lotus leaves in sight, there should be plenty of lotus roots.

The guests were quite optimistic before they started. There were also professionals on the side to give them lessons, which was very helpful. Tong Zhou told Mu Nan Jia and Yueyue to wait on the side and not get into the water. Everyone had seen Li Jing’s pathetic state, so it was important to be extra careful.

However, Lin Man Jiang, who was in Li Jing’s group, was in a tough spot. She already had little presence and was an Omega. Now, Li Jing was taking a long time to come back after changing. From what Tong Zhou knew about Li Jing, she would probably stall until the very end. It was hard to say whether Lin Man Jiang would be able to complete the task. But, maybe Lin Man Jiang was a natural? Tong Zhou decided to focus on her own task first.

“Mommy Zhou Zhou… can you… can you also give Mommy Jiajia a hug? I… can I trade my candy for it?”

Yueyue could vaguely sense that there was some conflict between her two mommies. Mommy Zhou Zhou didn’t seem to like Mommy Jiajia and was always very strict with her. But… it was okay. She… she could find a way to make Mommy Zhou Zhou be good to Mommy Jia Jia!

— Oh my god, this baby is so pathetic, boohoo~

— So are they dating or what?!!!

— Tong Zhou, how can you just ignore a great beauty like Mu Nan Jia? You’re not an Alpha!

— I think so, too, boohoo~

Tong Zhou felt that children’s emotions were really sensitive. She also seemed confused about her relationship with Mu Nan Jia now. Maybe she should have a serious talk with her later. For now, Tong Zhou didn’t want Yueyue to be so anxious, as it wasn’t good for a child’s growth. She said, “It doesn’t make me happy when you talk to me like that, sweetie.”

“…Mommy Zhou Zhou, you get unhappy so easily.” Yueyue’s eyes widened slightly, looking at a loss.

“Because when you talk to me like that, it makes me feel like a bad person. Of course I’m not happy.”

“But… but if I don’t talk to you like that… you’ll get mad at Mommy Jia Jia.” Yueyue felt that the world of adults was so hard to understand. She didn’t know how to get along with them.

“I’m not mad,” Tong Zhou said gently, stroking her head. She spoke to her very seriously.

“Weally? Then… can you hug Mommy Jia Jia?” Yueyue took the opportunity to propose her idea.

“Okay.” Tong Zhou didn’t refuse. She hugged her to reassure her, then walked over to Mu Nan Jia and gave her a brief hug. “Yueyue told me to give you a hug.”

“…It’s not very good with so many people watching.” Although she said this, Mu Nan Jia didn’t let go of her at all. Instead, she hugged her even tighter.

Tong Zhou could feel her trembling slightly. It was an uncomfortable feeling. Not because she was trembling in her arms, but because the fear Mu Nan Jia was showing made Tong Zhou uncomfortable. It felt like her heart was pricked by a needle. For some reason, a thought flashed through her mind too quickly. It disappeared before she could grasp it and was nowhere to be found. Tong Zhou felt a sense of loss.

“I didn’t… want to watch you fall in just now,” Mu Nan Jia said softly, leaning close to her ear, almost as if she were kissing her, which made Tong Zhou’s heart tingle. “It’s because… I trust that your core strength is good enough, Teacher Tong.”

Tong Zhou: “…” She knew Mu Nan Jia wouldn’t say anything nice to her.

Tong Zhou was at a loss for what to do with her. She reached out and flicked her forehead. “You’re so naughty.”

“Don’t you think your core strength is good?” Mu Nan Jia felt that Tong Zhou’s attitude toward her had subtly changed, but she still didn’t dare to be too reckless. She just held her throbbing forehead and asked her pitifully.

Tong Zhou could tell she was acting just by looking at her. She was used to feigning weakness to make people’s hearts melt. It seemed that she also knew that Tong Zhou was a softie in these situations and wouldn’t really reject her.

“I have no idea what you’re thinking about all day,” she said, completely exasperated. “You were right not to help with Yueyue. Thank you for trusting me.”

“I’m so good, don’t I get a reward?”

“…No,” Tong Zhou said without a second thought.

“How about a reward of three times a night?” Mu Nan Jia seemed to not hear her answer at all and still said what was on her mind.

“…No reward,” Tong Zhou reiterated.

“What? You want five times a night? That’s… not impossible.”

“Mu Nan Jia, if you say one more thing, you’re not getting any!” Tong Zhou felt that her skin was still thin. When she said these things, she didn’t have much confidence, and her face couldn’t help but get hot.

“Okay, okay, you can’t take a joke.” Mu Nan Jia kissed the corner of her lips. “Go, go, Mommy Zhou Zhou~~ Yueyue and I will be good and wait for you to finish the task~”

“You are so…” Tong Zhou felt that Mu Nan Jia was treating her like a cat, swatting her and then using a cat toy to tease her. But for some reason, she couldn’t get truly angry. She squeezed her hand hard, but in the end, she didn’t say anything. After confirming that Yueyue had met up with her, she listened to the host’s instructions and got into the water to start digging for lotus roots.

There were six groups in this season of the romance show. Besides Tong Zhou, who told Mu Nan Jia not to go in, and Li Jing, who accidentally fell into the lake and couldn’t participate in time, all the other groups went into the water together to dig for lotus roots. After all, two hundred pounds… was no small feat. And for the sake of the show’s effect, the production crew had told them before the show started to try to participate in the activities and not be left out.

— I told you Tong Zhou wasn’t a good person.

— How is she not a good person? She’s letting Jiajia sit there and do nothing, isn’t she a good person?

— Wow, all the other groups are consciously digging for lotus roots, but Tong Zhou is making her sit on the shore and do nothing. Tong Zhou must want all the glory for herself!

— Now that you mention it… Tong Zhou is a real schemer!

— Exactly!

Tong Zhou naturally didn’t know about this discussion in the comments. If she did, she would have found it absurd. She had actually done work like this before. The town where they were filming this romance show wasn’t far from the city. Whenever she was short on money or when people from the Tong family would borrow money from her and she didn’t have enough to give them, she would just find all kinds of odd jobs to do. After all, as an 18th-tier extra, it was already great to have three meals a day. What’s more, she later gave a large sum of money to He Yi Shi as start-up capital. After He Yi Shi’s startup failed and she was in a lot of debt, Tong Zhou had to pay off her debts for her. So she had done countless odd jobs.

Digging lotus roots was one of the easiest. After all, she was an Alpha, and her physical strength was better than that of an average person. So she earned a lot of money from digging lotus roots, which was not bad. Now, as soon as she got into the water, she found that familiar feeling again.

Digging lotus roots was not just a physical task. It was already autumn, and the lake water was cold. Digging for two hours was a killer. Of course, the production crew wasn’t so heartless. They gave them a boat. When they were tired, they could rest on the boat or go to the shore. And as for peeling lotus pods, since it was past the season, they changed the task to everyone digging for lotus roots.

Tong Zhou’s speed was very fast. She seemed to have a pair of eyes underwater, as she found a lotus root almost every time. And every time she pulled one out… it was surprisingly an entire “family” of oddly shaped ones, which was an eye-opener.

“Wow! Wow! Mommy Zhou Zhou, you’re so amazing!” Yueyue knew that she couldn’t help much in this situation, so she could only applaud and cheer for Tong Zhou, giving her full emotional support.

— Is Tong Zhou a lotus root harvester sent by the heavens? How is she so good at this?!

— Hahahaha, look at the other groups. It’s so funny. Zhou Weizhou keeps digging up rotten rubber shoes and tires, hahahaha. Did he enter a landfill?

— Go, Ruoxi! You can do it!

— Lin Man Jiang seems pretty good, too? She’s digging more than Meng Zhiyi’s group!

There were countless funny things happening while digging for lotus roots. There was Zhou Weizhou, who had bad luck and kept digging up trash. Yun Ruoxi, a rich girl, was doing this for the first time. And Meng Zhiyi was also getting into the water to dig lotus roots for the first time. No matter how you looked at it… he didn’t seem like he knew how to dig.
