Alternative marriage

After Cuicui jumped into Mu Qingting's arms, she automatically switched seamlessly from "smart" mode to "mentally retarded".

Being able to communicate seamlessly with most creatures in the world is its innate skill.

Before meeting Su Liu, it had never revealed this fact to anyone except Lian Gufeng.

Cuicui sighed softly: It’s really because the mint smell on Su Liu is too overpowering.

Lust blinds the mind.

The last time Lian Gu Feng was so angry was because he was afraid that Su Liu would find something to hold against him.

It repeatedly assured Lian Gufeng that Su Liu was just a special case, and after coaxing him for a long time, Lian Gufeng reluctantly gave in.

But now it was not disguising itself in front of Ji He.

There was no way. Xiao Taohua was a beauty. She had never seen a human like Ji He, who smelled so good and looked so good without even seeing the face. She couldn't help but be fascinated by him again.

"This cat looks very familiar," Mu Qingting touched Cuicui's little head.

"I found it specifically after Lian Gufeng's cat. This is the second task I assigned to you. Lian Gufeng is also in the city you are about to go to. If you find a chance, I hope you can switch her cat," Cuicui widened her eyes and listened to Su Liu's serious nonsense.

"Ah?" Mu Qingting was startled. "This... maybe, I..."

"Everything depends on human effort. This is just an additional question. If you find it difficult, just don't do it," Su Liu said, unfolding the small portrait of the character so that Mu Qingting could familiarize herself with the target person she was going to attack in advance.

Cuicui narrowed her eyes and pretended to lie lazily in Mu Qingting's arms, but her eyes glanced at the two portraits curiously.

These two Alphas.

A man wearing glasses, looks fair, gentle, elegant and kind, but if you look closely, you can see that his eyes are very sharp and he has the shrewdness of a businessman.

The other one had a handsome face and a pair of peach blossom eyes that expressed tenderness all the time, but his thin lips were tightly pursed, revealing a hint of coldness for no reason.

These two people have outstanding looks and outstanding temperament.

Although there is still some difference between their real appearance and that in Cuicui's eyes, the person who painted these two portraits must have grasped the nature of these two people.

One is a gentleman but a villain, the other is a playboy and a heartless man.

Cuicui shook her beard and gave Su Liu a look of approval.

Su Liu winked playfully.

It seems that this is his work.

Cuicui's eyes widened again in an instant.

It really wanted to ask Su Liu how he did it, even though Su Liu had never seen those two people.

But it was a little far away from Su Liu and could no longer communicate with Su Liu.

that's all.

Mu Qingting took her cat and carried a small bamboo box and "moved" to a city with the word "Nan" in its name.

The owner of this city is a second-generation vampire duke.

The Duke is a lover of literature and art.

So the people here are very muscular and artistic.

The city has rich landscapes, and various flowers are planted in the flower beds along the courtyard walls of each household.

The warm wind blows, and the fragrance is rich.

The low building with green bricks and red tiles opened its doors for business.

It added a scent of ink to the street.

"My beautiful lady, I see you have been looking here for a long time. If you are interested in the calligraphy and paintings in our shop, you may come in and take a look," a gentlemanly male Beta walked up, bowed to Mu Qingting, and extended his hand to make a "please" gesture, as if he wanted to invite Mu Qingting in to take a look.

Mu Qingting is an actor. She is good-looking, has a good figure and temperament, and stands out in the crowd.

When she just got off the carriage, she just stayed in this alley for a while, and then five or six shopkeepers came over to talk to her.

"I'm sorry, am I disturbing your business?" Mu Qingting, just like she did when she rejected those enthusiastic shopkeepers before, hurriedly took a step back apologetically, like an innocent aristocratic lady.

"How could that be? My master saw that you were so kind, so he asked me to come and invite you to the attic for a gathering," the Beta said with an elegant smile on his face, and made a "please" gesture.

Having just arrived and being unfamiliar with the place, it seemed difficult to refuse such a conversation. Mu Qingting showed just the right amount of shyness and bewilderment on his face as he followed Beta, who was leading the way, into the calligraphy and painting shop.

"What's your name, young lady?" The shop assistant immediately came up and took Mu Qingting's suitcase. "I'll store it for you. Our shop is a well-known and well-established brand in Nancheng, so you can rest assured."

"My last name is Mu," Mu Qingting nodded slightly and then took out some change as a tip.

"Miss Mu, please go upstairs!" The guy who received the tip could not hide his joy, and his voice was louder than before.

Cuicui lay on Mu Qingting's shoulder, looking like an ordinary cat. She was a master of disguise. Perhaps in the eyes of most people, she only had some spiritual energy due to her long experience with the beastmaster Lian Gufeng. In reality, she was the dominant figure, having taught Lian Gufeng the beast language.

Since leaving Su Liu and coming to Mu Qingting's side, it hadn't revealed its abilities, always using simple body language to communicate with Mu Qingting. Sometimes, it would pretend not to understand Mu Qingting's meaning, misinterpreting a few instructions, successfully making Mu Qingting think that it was just a slightly intelligent cat who could occasionally understand what humans said.

This cat is not a brainless cat. As the saying goes: A cat is innocent until it is found guilty of possessing a treasure. Only those who I want to hear are qualified to communicate with me. Cui Cui stretched lazily.

Cuicui's vest was covered tightly.

The second floor is a low attic, decorated like an elegant and chic rest area.

There is a window in each of the four corners: east, west, south and north.

A male Alpha in moon-white clothes sat cross-legged by a window. On the low table in front of him, there was a cup of brewed tea. On the stove to his left, fragrant hot tea was boiling. Between the knuckles of his right hand, which was resting on his knees, a string of jade-colored hand-twisted beads was twisted. At this moment, he was resting with his eyes closed.

"Boss," the shopkeeper who brought Mu Qingting up called softly.

The man's eyelashes moved and he gently opened his eyes.

"Please sit down," he did not stand up to greet her, but just raised his chin slightly, indicating Mu Qingting to sit opposite him.

This is a hidden temptation.

As he wished, Mu Qingting lowered his eyebrows to hide his inner "nervousness". His fingers trembled slightly before he sat down hesitantly.

"My last name is Gu, and my given name is Yi," the shop owner said with a faint smile. He put two fingers together, seemingly elegant but actually casual, and pushed the brewed tea to Mu Qingting. "Miss Mu, please have some."

Mu Qingting nervously tugged at the hem of his clothes. "...Are you from the Gu family? The Gu family from the Lin Pei Gu family?"

"Ah, that's right," Gu Yi added modestly, "but my family is only a side branch, so we barely got some protection."

Mu Qingting seemed even more "nervous". She picked up the teacup and took a sip. When she put it down, the tea overflowed from the edge of the cup and scalded her hand.

Mu Qingting let out a low cry, and Cuicui, who was lying on his shoulder, jumped to the ground.

"Are you okay?" Gu Yi half stood up.

Mu Qingting stopped him again by apologizing repeatedly, "It's no problem."

"It's not very hot," Mu Qingting covered his scalding hands with a handkerchief.

"Your cat is nice. My lover's ex-wife also had one like this. It was very naughty and not as quiet as Miss Mu's cat." Gu Yi tried to change the subject as if to ease Mu Qingting's embarrassment.

"Your lover's ex-wife?" There was no discrimination in Mu Qingting's eyes, just some curiosity.

"I'm in an AA relationship," Gu Yi admitted straightforwardly. "My husband's surname is Pei. His family was very conservative a few years ago and they wouldn't allow me to be with him. To silence them, I found a kind Omega a few years ago to help me. We agreed to a marriage of convenience, which was also an explanation to his family."

"Is that so?" Mu Qingting said with a look of sympathy. "It's really not easy for you."

"We didn't cheat on each other," Gu Yi said, emphasizing that he fixed his eyes on Mu Qingting. "This was just a matter of personal gain. He didn't betray me."

"...Well," Mu Qingting's defense against the strange Alpha completely relaxed.

"Where is Miss Mu from?" Gu Yi, like a seasoned hunter, got to the point.

"I'm from Taocheng and I'm a drama actor." Mu Qingting easily started the conversation, seeming to understand that the Alpha in front of her posed no threat to her.

"Taocheng? That's Queen Dai Ning's hometown, it's very beautiful," Gu Yi said with admiration.

"Yes," Mu Qingting took another sip of tea and grumbled softly, "But there's a beauty pageant where people kidnap Omegas in the street. It's not democratic at all."

"Haha," Gu Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Qingting's beautiful face, and couldn't help laughing.

Mu Qingting blushed in embarrassment.

After that, the two talked about something else, and had a very pleasant conversation, like old friends meeting each other.

After a cup of tea, Gu Yi had become Mu Qingting's Alpha best friend.

"I have an empty house not far from here. You can move in first and then look for a job slowly," Gu Yi sent Mu Qingting downstairs and took Mu Qingting's bamboo box from the waiter, intending to send Mu Qingting there personally.

"...That's too much trouble for you," Mu Qingting held the cat, surprised and happy, but couldn't help but refuse out of courtesy.

"It's not a trouble. We are friends. There's no need to talk about trouble between friends." Gu Yi reached out to help Mu Qingting when he stepped over the threshold.

Here she is again, Cuicui snorted.

When we got there, we found that it was a small courtyard.

The courtyard is very lively.

The servant who answered the door warmly invited Mu Qingting in.

An older Alpha, about forty years old, was coming towards us, waving a fan.

This Alpha has a handsome face and is still handsome even with gray hair.

The jade pendant on the handle of his fan should be made of the same piece of jade as the one on Gu Yi's hand. The green jade luster is delicate and subtle, and also symbolizes the "feelings" between them, which are long-lasting.

"Is it a male or female cat? If it's a female, she could make a perfect pair with my confidante's," the man said, fanning himself as he approached. His peach blossom eyes seemed to smile as he stared at Cuicui for a moment, unable to see anything wrong. He then added, "I haven't seen eyes this pure, emerald green in ages. They're truly beautiful."

"It's a male cat," Mu Qingting said shyly, "I'm sorry."

"That's a pity, otherwise we could have become relatives," the man said regretfully, shaking his fan.

"Pei Yan, she's still a little girl, don't tease her," Gu Yi restrained his smile and warned with his eyes.

"Little girl? You're not even thirty yet, that's really young," Pei Yan glanced at Gu Yi meaningfully, then walked out the door smiling and fanning himself.

"It's already this late, where are you going?" In their relationship, Gu Yi was obviously the one in charge, and he controlled their daily movements.

"I bought Zhuyufenci for the little girl. This is a specialty snack in our Nancheng. Even if it is available elsewhere, it is not as delicious as here." Pei Yan turned around, his peach blossom eyes rolling, like a brother with no bad intentions and full of mature Alpha charm.

And so Mu Qingting settled down there.

A few nights later, Cuicui ran thousands of miles and arrived at the gate of Spark City, meowing.

Successfully attracted the sentry stationed inside the gate.

When Su Liu saw Cuicui, Cuicui was already beaming with joy among the beautiful Omegas.

"Where did this little kitty come from? It can shake its butt." An Omega picked up Cuicui and kissed her little face hard.

"Little cutie, what's your name? Do you want to join our Spark City? Auntie will make you some dried fish," another Omega also came over and gently touched Cuicui's little head.

"What does blinking mean? Do you agree?" Another Omega took Cui Cui.

Cuicui didn't respond. Her uniqueness couldn't be shared with too many people, or Fengfeng would be angry. Besides, Fengfeng had been in a cold war with her recently, even finding a cat that looked 90% like her. On her way to Suliu, she'd gone to Fengfeng first. This mean woman had ignored her, and she was angry too.

"Let's all go away. This cat is a guest." Su Liu took Cuicui out from the pile of cosmetics. There were even lipstick marks on Cuicui's face.

After returning to the East Building and washing Cuicui's face, Su Liu took off the silk scarf around her neck.

"Little Mint, what's wrong with your neck?" Cuicui's eyes widened in shock, and she looked at Qi Fengling silently.

Su Liu covered her mouth and lowered her head in silence. Last time, she was a little upset and pinched Qi Fengling. After returning home that night, she became like this.

Qi Fengling turned around, like a scoundrel who had done something bad and felt guilty, and pretended to be busy with the furnishings in the tea room, with his back to Cuicui.

Cuicui's eyes rolled around, and she seemed to understand something. Just as she was about to say something, Qi Fengling took out a large box of dried fish from some corner and placed it in front of Cuicui.

Cuicui immediately shut her mouth.

Little mint, did you make this? Cuicui picked one up, holding it between her two forelimbs and nibbling on it.

The golden dried fish is very crispy and makes a "crunching" sound when eaten, with tiny crumbs falling down "rustling".

"I participated," Su Liu was not very good at these things. In fact, most of them were done by Qi Fengling. He just stood by and watched for a while when Qi Fengling was slowly smoking with fruit sawdust and tea leaves.

Is this box all mine? Cuicui finished one and licked her paw happily when she saw Su Liu nod.

As a kitten much simpler than the scheming vampires, it didn't understand the essential difference between doing something by itself and "signing for someone else." After licking its paw, it didn't thank the person who actually did it, but instead jumped onto Su Liu's shoulder and gently nudged Su Liu's face with its head.

Then you keep it for me, I can’t take it away for the time being. Cuicui happily stuck out her tongue and breathed, giving clear instructions.

"Don't worry, it's safe here with me," Su Liu touched Cuicui's little ears with "stand-up collar".

After eating and drinking, Cuicui began to report on her work.

"...A different person?" After listening to Cuicui's vivid retelling, Su Liu and Qi Fengling looked at each other.

Cuicui nodded.

Pei Yan is so old, but he is still picky. He wants to find an Omega who is good-looking, open-minded, independent and self-reliant, but also a little bit saintly and easier to control.

But such an Omega is not a fool, why would she marry him? Of course, she can only change Gu Yi, so as not to appear so purposeful.

——Gu Yi is young, polite, and has a strong aura of AA love, which can make Omegas let down their guard.

"They both know how to enjoy life. It seems they have never wronged themselves," Su Liu commented objectively.
