Ye Yunqing updated his Weibo with a long-awaited post.
@Ye Yunqing V: Even if there’s no blood relationship, I’m still very grateful that you joined our little family. [Accompanied by a picture of three pairs of barefoot feet on the beach.]
Just as the black fans were about to turn on the mic to mock him, they were stunned. By the time they came to their senses, the comment section was already taken over by CP fans who had been holding back for a long time and were dying to know if this CP was real:
【Oh? No blood relationship = the child is not biologically related = they’re for real!!!】
【What are you waiting for? Let’s ship them hard! Give us all the fluff!】
【Let’s go all out! I’ve already watched the GIF of Yunqing being hugged by CEO Yao a hundred times! This is not hype! This is the real sugar being fed to us!】
【Let’s start shipping, sisters! Super topic address: … Vote/link: Cheng Jingyao X Ye Yunqing CP name voting: …】
Meanwhile, a newly verified account @WonderfulMoonV mentioned this topic CP.
@Wonderful Moon V: What does home look like? Is it warm and lively, or does it come with conflicts, disputes, and reconciliations? Thousands of families are both similar and unique. What kind of family will be formed by the movie king Cheng Jingyao, the popular actor Ye Yunqing, and their son Tuntun? Do you want to know? Pineapple Video’s latest family live show #Wonderful Moon#, stay tuned. 【Image: Concept poster x9】
【？？？】
【CEO Yao is going on a variety show?!】
【A family reality show? Not a dating show? /confused face】
【Grandma! Your favourite CEO is going to perform – no, going to a variety show!】
【Although, am I the only one curious about why they adopted a child at such a young age?】
【Curiosity +1】
The sudden announcement caused the internet to buzz again, and the couple who had just put their child to sleep had just climbed up the hot search rankings.
【It’s already strange for an artist in the rising period of their career to adopt a child. Could it just be a cover-up?】
When leaving the child’s room, Ye Yunqing still had some worries: “Is it not good for us to expose Tuntun to the public?”
“It’s not a bad thing for him to get some practice early on.” The child’s father wasn’t worried, and he turned his attention to the preschooler, “He’s on summer vacation now, so I was planning on taking him to the company to familiarise him with the business.”
A four-year-old child familiarising himself with the business?!
Ye Yunqing gave him a blank look.
Cheng Jingyao smiled and hugged him back to the master bedroom. “The public will never stop prying into public figures. Since it’s already public, sooner or later, Tuntun will enter everyone’s field of vision. We have the initiative, which is better than being secretly filmed.”
“And also–”
While Ye Yunqing was thinking that he made sense, Cheng Jingyao suddenly embraced him, and his warm hand caressed from his ear to his cheek, gently lifting his chin. His voice was deep, and his breath was close at hand–
“You owe me a kiss in the morning, and now it’s time to collect the interest.”
“Mmm…”
The unscrupulous boss Cheng Jingyao lent out a kiss, and the interest on the kiss accumulated until the bed sheet was wrinkled.
The next day, Ye Yunqing and Cheng Jingyao brought their son to Pineapple Video and signed a contract with the ‘Wonderful Moon’ program team. They also went to the studio to shoot a family poster and promotional video.
A few days later, the program team arranged for several families to officially meet and shoot a group poster and record the theme song.
This day’s schedule was busy, and the studio was a bit far away. Ye Yunqing’s family set off early, and little Tuntun was still half asleep and was carried into the car by his big daddy. He leaned on the safety seat and fell back asleep.
Ye Yunqing put a small neck pillow under his head to make him more comfortable.
It was a journey of over an hour, and by the time they arrived, Tuntun had just woken up. The little guy hadn’t had breakfast yet, so Ye Yunqing fed him a small cake, a boiled egg, and opened a bottle of warm milk, while Cheng Jingyao carried him out of the car.

A staff member came up to them: “Teacher Cheng, Teacher Ye, please come this way. We are shooting at studio 1.”
“Teacher Song and Teacher Zhao’s families have already arrived and are chatting in the public lounge. Teacher Ji’s family is already on the way. After everyone arrives, we will have a half-hour live broadcast to do some preheating for the program.”
Ye Yunqing’s family entered the studio, and the director and producer came over to greet them and led them to the public lounge corner of the studio.
The two couples sitting on the sofa in the rest area stopped their conversation, and Cheng Jingyao brought Ye Yunqing forward to greet one of the older couples first: “Teacher Song, Teacher Tang, long time no see.”
Both are powerful veteran actors in their fifties, and have worked with Cheng Jingyao before.
“It’s been almost a year.” Song Tao had a handsome face, seemed reserved, but was easy to get along with. “In the blink of an eye, you’ve gotten married.”
He didn’t expect that Cheng Jingyao’s partner would actually be a man.
“Yes,” Tang Min had a more gentle and approachable appearance, with a smile in her voice. “At first, when I heard that you were also going to be on this show, I didn’t believe it.”
When they first learned that Cheng Jingyao and Ye Yunqing were joining the program, the Song Tao couple even considered whether to withdraw.
It’s not that they have any opinions about Cheng Jingyao, but they brought their 14-year-old son to participate in the program this time. This young age is when their views on love are just forming. What if they are ‘influenced’ in the wrong way?
Cheng Jingyao didn’t know the discomfort in their hearts, and led Ye Yunqing forward. “This is my lover Ye Yunqing, my son Cheng Jieyu, nicknamed Tuntun.”
“Hello, Teacher Song, Teacher Tang.” Ye Yunqing said.
“Say hello to Grandpa and Grandma,” Cheng Jingyao said to Tuntun.
Tuntun said softly, “Hello Grandpa and Grandma~”
“Hello.” Tang Min showed a loving smile, and Song Tao also gave a shallow smile. The little guy was round and smooth, with red lips and fair skin, and he was likable at first glance.
“This is my son, Song Hao,” Tang Min introduced, “And those two are the famous violinist Mr. Zhao Junzhao and his wife – the famous pianist Sun Ruru. Next to them is their daughter, Zhao Yin.”
Ye Yunqing and Cheng Jingyao greeted and shook hands with the Zhao Jun couple, exchanging a few pleasantries.
Before signing the contract, they briefly learned about the situation of several other families. The Zhao Jun couple worked for a world-renowned symphony orchestra, and they were not originally in the same circle as them. However, the two were invited to perform on the Spring Festival Gala twice and had a certain national recognition, making them half-celebrities within the industry.
The three families sat together in the rest area, and the Zhao Jun couple took the opportunity to chat about the movies that Cheng Jingyao, Song Tao, and Tang Min had collaborated on, speaking highly of Song Tao and Tang Min and being very enthusiastic towards Cheng Jingyao.
However, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they did not engage much in conversation with Ye Yunqing.
Ye Yunqing had anticipated this situation as he had the lowest status among the celebrities in the program. Although the Zhao Jun couple were not in the entertainment circle, they were highly respected artists and probably looked down on him, a ‘C-list’ celebrity.
Although not as obvious as the others, when Ye Yunqing greeted Song Tao and Tang Min, the two just nodded without any intention of conversing with him. However, they did respond with a smile to Tuntun’s greeting.
But Ye Yunqing was not a talkative person and didn’t mind the cold treatment. He led Tuntun to greet Song Hao and Zhao Yin.
Since Tuntun would have to interact with them during the program, it was good to get to know them a bit beforehand.
Tuntun held a half-drunk bottle of milk, feeling a bit shy, and called out “brother” and “sister” in a soft voice.
Zhao Yin, who was six years old and wearing a beautiful princess dress with her hair tied in a bun, smiled and responded, “Hello little brother.”
Song Hao was wearing a skull T-shirt and ripped jeans. His parents had just confiscated his phone and banned him from playing games, so his face looked a bit sullen. He responded with a cold “Hmm,” and impatiently asked Tang Min, “Mom, why isn’t everyone here yet? When are we starting?”
Tang Min raised her hand to check the time, “We should start soon. It’s almost time.”
Just as she finished speaking, Ji Linfeng and his family arrived.
“Teacher Song, Teacher Tang, is everyone here?” Ji Linfeng approached to shake hands. “Sorry, we were stuck in traffic and almost ran late.”
As a ‘CEO expert’ in the television industry, Ji Linfeng still maintained his ever-changing but classic look — with a slicked-back hairdo, a white shirt and trousers. Because of the hot weather, he had unbuttoned two buttons of his collar and rolled up his sleeves to his elbows.
His wife was the popular actress Shen Sisi, dressed in a bright yellow dress, still as dazzling as an 18-year-old girl even at the age of 32.
She was holding a seven-year-old boy wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and British-style suspender shorts. The boy had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and had little expression on his face, looking like a “little boss”.
With their arrival, there was another round of exchanging names and greetings.
As one of the only two young women on the show, Sun Ruru intended to get closer to Shen Sisi. Just as she was about to chat for a while, she saw Shen Sisi walking towards Ye Yunqing and Tuntun, holding her son Ji Xingjia.
“Yunqing, Mu Bai mentioned you to me.”
Ye Yunqing was slightly stunned, “Mu Bai?”
He only knew one “Mu Bai,” an actor he had worked with in the movie “Sunshine” – Li Mubai.
“Yes, he’s my cousin,” Shen Sisi said as she sat her son next to Tuntun and sat down on the other side of her son.
“He heard that both of us will be participating in this program, so he purposely came to my house to praise you for more than two hours, saying that you took good care of him on the set.”
“It was one hour and forty-six minutes,” reminded ‘little boss’ Ji Xingjia.
Shen Sisi looked at her son speechlessly, “….rounding up is two hours.”
“Even then, it’s not ‘more than two’ hours. Mom, you should be more rigorous and not exaggerate the facts,” said Ji Xingjia, pushing his glasses and shifting his bottom to sit straight with his hands on his knees.
Shen Sisi: “….”
Holding his bottle, Tuntun snuggled up close to Ye Yunqing and looked at this little brother with some curiosity. There were some children in his kindergarten who wore glasses, but none of them had glasses as nice as this little brother’s.
Ji Xingjia noticed his gaze and spoke up: “Hello, little brother.”
Tuntun tightened his grip on the bottle with his little finger. “Hello, big brother.”
Ji Xingjia nodded and sat up straight again.
Tuntun continued to curiously observe him, unconsciously finishing the last drop of milk. Ye Yunqing took the bottle away, and Tuntun’s little hands suddenly had nowhere to go.
He wanted to crawl into Ye Yunqing’s arms and let his father hold him.
But when he saw the little boy sitting properly next to him, he unconsciously straightened his own body, mimicking him by crossing his legs and putting his hands on his knees, and then comparing and checking if he looked the same as the little boy.
While Shen Sisi was chatting with Ye Yunqing, she noticed his little movement and couldn’t help pinching his soft cheeks and said, “So cute!”
Ji Xingjia turned his head to look at his own mother and adjusted his glasses, the lenses reflecting a sharp light.
Shen Sisi: “…”
Ye Yunqing smiled slightly, “Xingjia is also cute and has a strong personality.”
Ji Xingjia paused, pushed his glasses, and nodded to Ye Yunqing in gratitude, “Thank you.”
But his ears secretly turned red.
As soon as Tuntun heard his dad praise someone, he sat up straighter and looked up at Ye Yunqing expectantly. “Daddy, I’m cute too.”
Ye Yunqing chuckled and leaned down to kiss his little head, “Hmm, Tuntun is also cute.”
The little guy’s eyes bent and his lips immediately curved into a sweet smile, revealing a pair of adorable dimples.
Unbeknownst to them, the program had been broadcasting live since the Jis entered the studio.
As they had announced the show on Weibo beforehand, a large number of fans and viewers flooded into the live chat. At first, the barrage was mocking Ji Linfeng’s “semi-permanent dictator” look, but later it devolved into discussions about the strict and cold “Little Dictator’s” art style.
When a close-up shot of the soft and plump little Tuntun appeared on the screen, the barrage in the live broadcast room was filled with screams as if they had gone crazy:
【Ah ah ah! Where did this little milk bun come from! I really want to nibble on his little face!】
【Is this the gene of President Yao and Mrs. Qing Qing? He’s too good-looking!】
【However, this is not their biological child.】
【I declare! I’m going to buy a house and live in this live broadcast room today. I’m becoming a mom on the spot!】
【Pfft- Little Boss Star pushed his glasses up: Mom, about you praising others for being cute, I suggest you reconsider your wording.】
【Cute! Both of you are so cute! You make your momma want to die from cuteness *%!…*# (incoherent words)】
【You’re both super duper explosively cute if you ask me!】
【Sigh, I envy Ye Yunqing and Ji Linfeng, having such beautiful wives and adorable children.】
On the other side, while Ye Yunqing and Shen Sisi got closer due to Li Mubai’s initiative and opened up a topic, Sun Ruru couldn’t join the conversation because she didn’t know Ye Yunqing or Li Mubai well, so she could only sit awkwardly beside her husband with a not-so-good expression on her face.
As she turned her head, she noticed the cameras at work and immediately restrained her expression and put on a smile, “Have we started the live broadcast?”
With her reminder, everyone stopped talking and took out their name tags, greeting the audience.
The brief live broadcast ended successfully with good feedback, and the director began arranging for everyone to take a group photo.
But when it came time to arrange the positions, Sun Ruru suddenly raised an objection: “Director, can we switch places with Sister Sisi’s family?”
She didn’t want to stand next to Ye Yunqing.
Lady, showing your dislike so openly is rude and unprofessional. And that older couple, you shouldn’t worry about gays but about women wearing the kind of clothes that make them look like they might as well not be wearing them, or generally people with unhealthy habits like smoking, drinking and such.
At least Shen Sisi is nice, and her son is also cute.
Thank you for the chapter~
Well this is about to be a fun ride.
And the nasty has to dirty the fun… Thanks for the update 🤣❤️🤣❤️
Yeah, if your child will see all villains in animation, movies and news them doesn’t become them, but if them sees a gay it 100% change their sexual orientation
Thank you for your translation 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Well said, 1000% agree!
I have a great recommendation for all readers of this book!
You can increase the level of sweetness in your life if you combine reading this book and watching the TV series “Our Dining Table”!!
Thanks for the chapter!
thanks for the update!
Oh no, the confused kid might have his eyes open by a little bit of representation, how terrible 🙄
Lady, if your kid openly likes men after seeing a couple out, he was probably already gay, you just couldn’t see the closet yet
LMAO, If see a gay couple makes a people gay I should been straight.
And I think is so fun how the asian continent despite be so modern keep have the retrograde thinking.Waiting for more ✨
People always talk shit about Asia after stuff like this like there aren’t homophobic conservatives literally everywhere. It’s just racism to act like Asia is just backwards.
Place like Japan (in Asia) are considered one of the most technological places in the world but they are misogynistic, that’s the true. I don’t saying like Asia is the ONLY one but (for me a people how for very long time Just heard the goods things ) this was a surprise. And everyone know that (USA sucks) have country’s that have politic anti-LGBT+ or with mysogynist leaders (Just look for womans futebol spain and that asshole who harrased a player in front of everyone).
lmao, then if ur little bun sees a particularly good looking villain, will they forever be destined to wreak havoc on the public? You’re not afraid for ur child; you’re afraid for yourself, who wouldn’t know if you’d be able to love the child the same way. Forget not being comfortable around gay people, your behaviour isn’t even professional. Personalities like these always make things worse for themselves by forgeting basic human respect and politeness then make a fuss when the audience dislikes them for it.
Thanks for the chapter!
When you ship Xingjia to Tuntun… what a corrupt mind a have. Sowweeeee 😭
And, what’s wrong with that girl? well, there’s a lot of people like her in reality not surprising but, hell yeah irritating
It is irritating, but it’s also oddly refreshing? It’s unusual to see flat-out and open homophobia in these stories (instead usually being filtered through something like abo). At least we’ll get to see some direct face-slapping against vocal bigots fistpump
Also, my phone is appparetently in 100% agreement about such bigotry – autocorrect changed “homophobia” to “hemophilia” twice before I could finally get it to stop. But it keeps trying! proud head pats to phone annoying, but gratifying
Ji Xingjia is… really cute and hilarious. I imagine him looking like a mini version of Midorima (Kuroko no Basuke character lmao) except black hair hahahahaha
I don’t understand why she have to be so unpleasant, she is showing her prejudice so openly. Shame on her and the others who ignored our sweet Ye.
Wtf they only discrimunate Ye Yunqing , why dont y’all also discriminate his partner ? Fuckin double standard
