When I Woke Up, I Had Three Romantic Partners - Chapter 5

The fans of Luo Wanshuang in the live stream all felt that their idol was embarrassing herself and urged her to pull herself together, telling her she couldn’t just crumble so easily because of two sentences from Chi Jinqing!

You have to be reserved! Don’t be a fool!

But no matter how disappointed the fans were, Luo Wanshuang at the scene couldn’t hear them. Or perhaps even if she did hear them, she wouldn’t care, after all, this was the idol she had chased for her entire youth!

“I will do my best!”

Since the singer’s team had both lost, they were ranked third. Now, only Chi Jinqing and Si Jiamo’s teams remained. Si Jiamo’s team only had her alone, while Chi Jinqing’s team still had two people.

Si Jiamo sat down and calmly extended her hand: “Come on.”

For some unknown reason, Si Jiamo went all out from the start, using her maximum strength to defeat Luo Wanshuang, who had already battled two people.

Luo Wanshuang was stunned. She opened her mouth slightly, remaining motionless in a daze.

After a while, she stood up and scurried over to Chi Jinqing like a stray puppy, crying pitifully: “I’m sorry, Idol, I lost…”

She had failed to live up to the encouragement her idol had given her.

Chi Jinqing tentatively patted her head, comforting her: “It’s alright, you already did very well…”

Si Zhongmo watched Chi Jinqing’s oblivious actions, internally wishing she could drag her over and spank her bottom, but outwardly she just said coolly: “Next.”

Chi Jinqing felt a shiver down her spine and quickly withdrew the hand she was using to comfort Luo Wanshuang, saying: “I’m going.”

“En, Idol, good luck!”

Luo Wanshuang stood behind Chi Jinqing, enthusiastically cheering her on.

“Don’t be afraid, Idol, you’re the best!”

Si Jiamo: “…”

She gritted her teeth, staring fiercely at Chi Jinqing. This person, who attracted bees and butterflies, had only just been released and had already attracted such a clingy little sprite.

Chi Jinqing: “…”

Spinelessly, she didn’t dare to look into Si Jiamo’s eyes, only lowered her gaze to the table, trying hard not to reveal any flaw.

Si Jiamo seemed a little disappointed by this. After Chi Jinqing’s accident, every time she went to see her, the other person was unconscious. Later, she finally woke up, but Si Jiamo was at a crucial stage in her filming and couldn’t leave the set, so she couldn’t go see her.

Later, when Chi Jinqing was discharged, she only learned through her manager that Chi Jinqing’s evaluation report said she seemed to have amnesia. For a time, she didn’t know how to face this version of Chi Jinqing, and she was also afraid that Chi Jinqing would forget her.

So, she used work to numb herself and had Chi Jinqing’s assistant take photos of Chi Jinqing and report her situation constantly.

Each report indicated that Chi Jinqing’s condition was good, but she was drifting further and further away from the 26-year-old Chi Jinqing. Her current state reminded Si Jiamo of how she was when she first got together with Chi Jinqing.

If the other person had reverted to eighteen, then what did all the suffering she had endured over the years count for?

That’s why, as soon as she finished filming, she followed Chi Jinqing’s lead and joined this dating variety show.

She just wanted to see with her own eyes what had happened to Chi Jinqing.

However, she hadn’t even had the chance to question the other person when she first saw a little clingy puppy sticking to Chi Jinqing. It truly…

Was highly irritating.

“Come on.”

Over the years, the entertainment industry had taught Si Jiamo to hide all her emotions. So, even though she was close to exploding with anger now, she showed no expression, only Chi Jinqing, who was very familiar with her past, sensed something.

No matter how many years passed, Chi Jinqing could still detect some of the other person’s true thoughts from Si Jiamo’s slightest words or actions.

Chi Jinqing was a little confused. Was Si Jiamo angry?

But why?

The other person was living a happy life now, had as many adoring fans as she wanted, and was only dragging her along because she had caused a bad influence on her. But after so many years, she never resisted the other person’s humiliation of her.

The diary clearly stated that Si Jiamo’s attitude towards her was hostile, and besides calling her over to play the guitar when the mood struck, there was basically no other intimate contact.

From the perspective of her 26-year-old self, Si Jiamo should have lost interest in her by now, given that there were so many beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and she was merely the most unremarkable one.

As Chi Jinqing sat down distracted, Si Jiamo noticed her carelessness and immediately felt that after all these years, Chi Jinqing was still humiliating her, and in front of so many people at that.

Suppressing her grievance and displeasure, she said coldly: “Put your hand up.”

Her attitude caused the comments on the bullet screen to erupt.

You need to wake up: My goodness, is Si Jiamo angry? This is the first time I’ve heard her voice so cold. Hiss, offering silent prayers for Chi Jinqing .

Little Meaty: No way, Si Jiamo has always been like this, I didn’t notice her being angry.

Jin Jin’s Little Quilt: Why is she angry at my Jiejie (older sister)? Even though she’s a movie queen, why is she acting like this for no reason?

Purely: Upstairs, I think she might be interested in your Jiejie, which is why she’s angry about your Jiejie interacting with someone else.

Meat Floss Egg Yolk: Nonsense! They have nothing to do with each other!

Jiejie’s Little Pendant: Speaking of which, why are you Meat Flosses still in our channel? Are you trying to switch allegiances but are too embarrassed to do it directly, so you’re trying to attract our attention with this kind of tone first?

The two people on the scene were unaware of what was happening on the bullet screen. Chi Jinqing, being jolted out of her reverie again, subconsciously reached out her hand. The next moment, everyone fell silent.

Because Chi Jinqing actually extended her hand and placed it in Si Jiamo’s palm. Since Si Jiamo’s hand was open, she subconsciously grasped Chi Jinqing’s hand. Their two hands were clasped together, as if they had instantly returned to the age of eighteen.

Back then, as soon as Si Jiamo reached out, Chi Jinqing would naturally place her hand there for her to hold and play with. Chi Jinqing’s hand was fair and slightly fleshy, unlike Si Jiamo’s hand, which was slender and distinctly bony, looking like a boy’s hand.

During their school days, Si Jiamo’s favorite thing was to pinch Chi Jinqing’s little plump hand. Whenever they spent time together, she always liked to hold Chi Jinqing’s hand, as if it gave her a sense of security.

So, Chi Jinqing, whose memory was still stuck at eighteen, saw Si Jiamo’s outstretched hand and subconsciously placed hers on it. It was only after their hands were clasped that she remembered that her current body was not eighteen years old.

They were still live-streaming. She instinctively glanced at Si Jiamo.

The others around them also hadn’t expected the two to hold hands directly, and their expressions immediately became subtle. The other two, who had been chosen as temporary roommates, had their eyes dim.

Luo Wanshuang bit her lower lip, her gaze fixed intently on Chi Jinqing and Si Jiamo’s clasped hands, then she thoughtfully swept her eyes over Si Jiamo’s face, silently thinking: Is this my love rival?

What should I do? My rival is so powerful, can I win against her?

No, no, Luo Wanshuang patted her little face, I can’t think like that. Idol said that I’m more suitable for her!

Meanwhile, Feng Yan saw Si Jiamo’s subconscious action of taking Chi Jinqing’s hand and understood Si Jiamo’s intentions, although she was slightly unhappy that the other person had used her.

She came to this variety show with a subtle desire to find a partner. After all, she also felt that while being alone was fine, she was getting older and inevitably felt a bit lonely.

She wanted to find someone compatible. Initially, she chose Si Jiamo because, among the people present, she had the highest opinion of her. She just hadn’t expected the other person to already be attached.

Feng Yan had no interest in competing for someone who already had a sweetheart. Jiamo

It wouldn’t be right for her to be a stumbling block in someone else’s relationship, would it?

But…

She looked at Luo Wanshuang, who was pouting and wearing her emotions on her sleeve, and shook her head almost imperceptibly. Chi Jinqing’s little fan seemed quite confident in herself.

She wondered how Si Jiamo would ‘deal with’ such an enthusiastic rival in love.

Si Jiamo and Chi Jinqing were unaware of what the others were thinking. Chi Jinqing awkwardly wanted to withdraw her hand, but Si Jiamo didn’t let go. She, too, was somewhat in a trance, feeling that Chi Jinqing might truly have returned to eighteen.

Because the 26-year-old Chi Jinqing would never respond to her subtle actions like this; only the 18-year-old Chi Jinqing would.

She remained silent for a long time, finally grasping Chi Jinqing’s hand firmly: “Let’s start like this.”

Chi Jinqing: “…”

Chi Jinqing pursed her lips: “Okay.”

If the other person thought it was fine, then it must be fine. Anyway, she didn’t have as many fans as the other person.

The director team hadn’t anticipated this unexpected situation. Since it was a live broadcast, they couldn’t stop it, so they could only let them continue.

Si Jiamo: “We’ll both count to three and start simultaneously.”

Chi Jinqing: “Good.”

“One.”

“Two.”

“Three.”

“Start.”

Si Jiamo and Chi Jinqing exerted force at the same time, neither giving way.

Chi Jinqing was initially hesitant and planned to go easy on Si Jiamo as she didn’t want to truly oppose her. But the moment the other person tightly clasped her hand, she looked up at her and saw a hint of nostalgia and complexity flash in the other person’s eyes, followed instantly by seriousness.

The other person was very serious about her work, so she couldn’t insult her by deliberately losing.

Soon, both their faces began to flush. Si Jiamo pressed her lips together, beads of sweat appearing on her face. Her gaze fell upon Chi Jinqing, whose face was also glistening with sweat, and in a daze, she felt as though she truly saw the eighteen-year-old soul inside this body.

In their final struggle, Si Jiamo gradually overpowered Chi Jinqing, ultimately achieving victory.

When the match ended and the two released their hands, their palms were marked with the indentations from the other person’s tight grip, and both their hands were trembling.

Luo Wanshuang rushed forward, looking at Chi Jinqing’s distorted hand with teary eyes, wanting to rub it for her. Chi Jinqing quickly pulled her hand back, saying softly: “It’s alright, it will be fine in a moment.”

Seeing this, Feng Yan also made a point of going over and asking about it, and predictably received the same answer. She shrugged, looking as if she had already figured everything out.
