My Wife Became a Top Star After I Came Back from Quick Transmigration - Chapter 106

In the end, Su Qixi couldn’t hold back her tears. The moment Lin Mo put the ring on her finger, the overwhelming happiness made her weep. The cameras of the surrounding reporters, which were clicking so fast they seemed to be sparking, and the screams of the fans, became the celebratory anthem of Su Qixi’s romance.

The sudden proposal was a surprise not only to Su Qixi but also to the entire online community. After the industry-wide online bullying of Lin Mo, this was finally the first positive, explosive trending topic of the year.

#LinMoSuQixiProposal

With Lin Mo’s immense recent popularity and Su Qixi’s established position in the entertainment industry, their couple’s fan base was in a league of their own. As soon as the hot search appeared, their fans immediately flooded it with comments and likes, pushing it to the top.

The reporters at the airport swarmed them. Even if they hadn’t come for the couple initially, it no longer mattered. They crowded around, desperate to get firsthand material. Luckily, the fans did a great job of holding the reporters back, and Xiong Jingjing quickly led the group out of the airport and into a waiting car.

Even so, the news of their engagement spread like wildfire across social media, forums, and video websites. The public discussion and popularity of the topic didn’t die down much for days. Everyone thought this was the perfect opportunity for Lin Mo to debut. Yet, not only did she not debut, but Su Qixi also began to drastically reduce her workload, practically going into semi-retirement.

This left their fans completely baffled.

Qilin Couple Fan Page: ???

SuDaShui: ???

Seriously, is this a humane thing to do?

Su Su, why aren’t you working anymore?

I can’t see my idol. It’s so hard. Wuwuwu.

As a couple’s fan, I’m just…

I don’t even need you to show off your love, just show up!

Later, Lin Mo and Su Qixi did make an appearance. One of their high school friends was getting married to another woman. The couple had originally planned to get married at the end of last year and had invited Lin Mo and Su Qixi to the wedding at the time, but because of Lin Mo’s online bullying incident, they had gone into hiding and the wedding had been postponed. When Lin Mo returned, their friend immediately began to plan the wedding. Lin Mo and Su Qixi attended the wedding as bridesmaids, and a professional photographer was there. The next day, Su Qixi posted a message on Weibo congratulating her friends. She also included a video from the lively wedding, which was filled with the couple’s sweetness and gave the fans a lot to gush over. The most talked-about part of it all was how an ordinary couple’s wedding was a top trend for three days just because Lin Mo and Su Qixi attended.

The influence of the Qilin couple was clear. After that, there was a long period with almost no news from them. The next time anyone heard from them was when they were holding their engagement party.

A Grand Celebration

Su Qixi and Lin Mo’s engagement party was held at the largest hotel in Hai City. Even though it was just an engagement, Su Qixi had sent out invitations early. On the day of the party, a stream of celebrities arrived. This included the entire cast and crew of “The Homey Inn,” and all of the show’s guests. The only one not in attendance was Qi Yoshan.

Outside, there were reporters, fans, and influencers hoping to ride the popularity wave. Su Qixi had not kept the engagement party a secret. In fact, fans with a fan community level of 6 or higher were invited to attend, and all food and drinks were free. When a fan live-streamed this detail, the fan community went crazy.

Ahhhhhhh, I want to go too!

Wuwuwu, I was going to go, but I had an internship. Wuwuwu. If I knew I could get in for free, I would’ve taken the day off!

Why didn’t you announce it in the super topic? Why?!

Are you crazy? Look at the number of fans in the super topic. Su Su has over 100 million fans, and the Qilin super topic has 7 million. And they’re all active fans! If they announced it in the super topic, the engagement party would be overrun by fans just from the Qilin community!

So sad. This is the only time I didn’t go to an event. Wuwuwu.

Anyone who’s there, live-stream the entire thing for me!

Members of the Qilin Village! When you get there, you absolutely must live-stream it for me! Please!

I haven’t had any new content to ship for a while. I’ve re-watched all the old clips so many times.

Wuwuwu, I came all the way here just for them. Thank god!

Ahhhhhh, I’m level 6 in the super topic, so I got in! Wuwuwu, so touched…

Inside, a huge red carpet led all the way to the hotel entrance. Cars kept pulling up, and celebrities stepped out. A hotel staff member stood by the red carpet, verifying the fan’s community level. Those who qualified were also allowed to enter through the main entrance. The resort-like hotel was H-shaped, historical, and incredibly luxurious, rivaling the best hotels in developed countries. The service was top-notch, and the facilities were complete. Normally, each guest had three staff members to serve them. Of course, because of the event, it wasn’t possible to be so meticulous. But the hotel had 800 employees, which was more than enough to provide a comfortable experience for every guest.

The hotel was vast and situated by the coast, so the middle and upper floors had great views of the sea. The hotel was always packed, and the doormen opened and closed the doors thousands of times a day. To rent out the entire hotel, money alone wasn’t enough. It also required Lin Mo’s help. The connections she had been building since last year had come into play.

At that moment, Su Qixi stood by a floor-to-ceiling window on the sixth floor, looking at the sea view, a satisfied look on her face. Lin Mo, who had just come up from downstairs, walked up behind her and naturally wrapped her arms around her waist. Su Qixi leaned back into Lin Mo’s embrace. Lin Mo leaned down, resting her chin on Su Qixi’s neck, and asked with a smile, “What are you looking at?”

Su Qixi: “The sea.”

Lin Mo followed her gaze. “It is beautiful. But we should go down. The guests have arrived. We shouldn’t be absent as the hosts, should we?”

Su Qixi turned in her arms. Her sparkling dress shimmered beautifully in the sunlight. The silk-smooth material hugged her figure, and the waist was adorned with ethereal, smoky-green tulle that looked like fairy wings, matching the color of her gown. Lin Mo’s hands rested on her waist, and she felt as if Su Qixi, turning in her arms, was a fairy dancing in her heart.

Su Qixi smiled playfully, stood on her tiptoes, and leaned in close to Lin Mo. She asked with feigned curiosity, “What’s on your head?”

Lin Mo was surprised. “What?”

The resort was large and luxurious, but the heating didn’t reach the outdoor courtyard. However, with the large number of guests, the reception area had to be extended to the outer courtyard. That’s where the disadvantage of the cold winter came in. Southern winters are wet and cold, and guests would inevitably get chilly. To provide a perfect experience, they had arranged with the hotel to build a windbreak. To make it look beautiful, they couldn’t use just any wall. Lin Mo had gone down earlier to check the courtyard and make sure everything was in order.

Did a leaf get on her head then? Lin Mo wondered.

“Lower your head so I can see,” Su Qixi sighed helplessly. “Why are you so much taller than me?”

Lin Mo smiled and lowered her head slightly. Su Qixi stood on her tiptoes and reached for Lin Mo’s head.

They drew closer, to a dangerous distance where they could smell each other’s scent. Lin Mo’s eyes fell on Su Qixi’s exquisitely sculpted collarbone. The graceful curve made her want to lean down and kiss it. The alluring sight made Lin Mo’s eyes darken, and she was distracted.

In that moment, she felt a softness on her lips. Then came Su Qixi’s laughter. Bathed in the sunlight, her radiant smile was the most dazzling thing in the winter.

Lin Mo laughed too. She placed a hand on the back of Su Qixi’s head and leaned down to kiss her deeply. Who could resist such a charming little tease from the person they loved?

A moment later, there was a knock on the door. Xiong Jingjing yelled, “You’re getting engaged, and I’m greeting the guests! Everyone’s almost here. What are you two doing in there?”

Su Qixi: “…”

Lin Mo released Su Qixi, turned around, and said with a laugh, “Sorry, sorry, we’ll be right down.”

Xiong Jingjing glared at her. “I knew it was a bad idea to send you to get her! If I hadn’t come, would you two have hooked up in here?”

Su Qixi covered her face. “Sister Jingjing, have you fallen so low?”

Xiong Jingjing gasped. “What did you say? Don’t think I didn’t see you seducing her just now!”

Su Qixi chuckled and looked even more proud.

Xiong Jingjing: “…” And she asks me if I’ve fallen low?

Lin Mo, to prevent them from arguing further, said with a smile, “Let’s go down.”

The three of them walked down together, and everyone’s attention turned to them. As soon as Lin Mo and Su Qixi reached the first floor, people gathered to congratulate them.

Yi Mei’er and Yun Yue also arrived at that moment. Since it was just an engagement, Su Qixi and Lin Mo had not chosen to wear wedding gowns but instead opted for beautiful, expensive evening dresses. The guests, of course, chose not to outshine the hosts. Yi Mei’er and Yun Yue were dressed in simple satin evening gowns. But with their stunning looks, the simple dresses still looked incredibly elegant.

Su Qixi saw Yi Mei’er and happily ran over. “Mei’er!” she called out.

Yi Mei’er was wearing a tight purple dress with a fur coat. When she saw Su Qixi running toward her, she pushed her forehead away in a disgusted manner. “I have a wife now, so keep your distance.”

Su Qixi: “Huh???”

Yun Yue, standing next to her, smiled helplessly. “I won’t overthink it.”

Yi Mei’er’s expression froze, and she looked at Yun Yue with a hurt look. “Why won’t you overthink it?”

Yun Yue: “…”

Lin Mo walked over and greeted them. She then turned to Yun Yue. “How have you been lately?”

Yun Yue was surprised that Lin Mo asked about her first, but she didn’t think much of it. “I’ve been well. And… I might be getting engaged soon, too.”

Lin Mo was surprised at first, then she broke into a wide smile. “Congratulations!” She held out her hand to Yun Yue. “I hope you find happiness.”

Yun Yue smiled and shook Lin Mo’s hand. “Thank you.”

In that moment, Lin Mo knew that Yun Yue had finally moved on.
