My Love Rival and I Are 100% Compatible - Chapter 97

“Is it really okay for you to say that?” Chi Yueshan asked Xi Zhoumeng after Wen Xinghuo left.

Xi Zhoumeng leaned against the side, the faint blue light of the holocom on her face making her look even more nonchalant.

“Hm?”

Chi Yueshan: “What if she and the princess get into a fight?”

How does one explain reincarnation? Chi Yueshan put herself in Sheng Yangkui’s shoes; even if she loved someone deeply, it would be hard to reveal everything.

Xi Zhoumeng didn’t have time to worry about other people’s relationships. She ordered several more dresses; the measurements taken yesterday should be accurate.

“Why would Wen Xinghuo fight with her? She’s probably the type to kneel down immediately if her wife is angry.”

Xi Zhoumeng’s words were full of sarcasm towards Wen Xinghuo. Chi Yueshan twitched her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself. Chi Yueshan enjoyed being physically close to Xi Zhoumeng, reaching out to pat her, but Xi Zhoumeng pulled her back.

In the tea room, only the sound of water flowing from the bonsai could be heard.

Xi Zhoumeng pulled Chi Yueshan into her arms, looking down and casually asking, “What is she to you? What am I to you?”

Chi Yueshan, enveloped in Xi Zhoumeng’s scent, stammered, “My girlfriend.”

Xi Zhoumeng pulled Chi Yueshan’s hand to tap the holocom, “Then let’s see if my girlfriend likes anything. It’s a discount day, pick whatever you want.”

Although there were many promotions at the end of the year, Xi Zhoumeng’s jewelry and accessories weren’t included in the discounts. The young miss didn’t really care about sales.

Chi Yueshan, even before marriage, had learned to be frugal for Xi Zhoumeng. Xi Zhoumeng didn’t lack money, but Chi Yueshan was afraid she wouldn’t appreciate it, so she said this.

Chi Yueshan thought everything was too expensive, shaking her head like a rattle, but Xi Zhoumeng stopped her.

Xi Zhoumeng: “If you don’t choose, I’ll pick the one with the least fabric.”

Chi Yueshan scoffed,”I can choose not to wear it.”

Xi Zhoumeng: “There are plenty of ways to make you wear something. Don’t you want to see my mother’s mecha…?”

Chi Yueshan: “How can you be like this!”

Xi Zhoumeng: “This is just who I am.”

There might not be anyone with thicker skin than her in the world.

Seeing Xi Zhoumeng had no intention of leaving, Chi Yueshan asked, “Do you have anything else to do?”

Xi Zhoumeng placed her chosen items in the order, without looking up, “Are you in a hurry to go back and get pressured into marriage?”

Chi Yueshan exclaimed “Ah”.

Her expression was innocent, as if she had never experienced being pressured by her entire family.

Excessively cute.

Thinking of her experiences, Xi Zhoumeng’s heart softened, “Then let’s go back.”

Chi Yueshan angrily snapped back, “I never said I’d marry you.”

Xi Zhoumeng nodded, a hint of melancholy in her eyes, “I don’t have the qualifications to marry you either.”

She shrugged, her flowing hair cascading down her shoulders. Standing up, she pulled Chi Yueshan along, “Let’s go for a walk. Haven’t you been out much?”

Chi Yueshan had contacted Wen Xinghuo, asking about working at Mechanical City.

With Chi Yueshan’s abilities, finding a long-term partner wasn’t a problem.

But she lacked access to advanced machinery; the channels were different, and the people she could ask were different.

She also wanted to ask about her master’s past, and only Ling Xun had some impression of Zhou Fengqin.

But Ling Xun had already told her everything she could, and Xi Zhoumeng, while seemingly generous, was actually very jealous. Chi Yueshan thought it was better to find something to do herself.

The upper world had not only novel architecture but also different entertainment options at roadside shops.

In an era saturated with VR games, some games requiring significant time investment became trendy.

Xi Zhoumeng hadn’t planned on playing the claw machine, but Chi Yueshan looked at it twice, so she wanted to try.

Chi Yueshan remembered her previous experience with Xi Zhoumeng trying to win a goose and felt despair; Xi Zhoumeng’s competitive spirit was terrifying.

If she didn’t win anything, would she buy the entire machine?

This is a whole arcade street.

It would be better to buy the Mechanical AI street next door.

I can also get some freebies.

Chi Yueshan flatly said, “One hundred star coins for five tries, whether you win or not, don’t linger.”

Xi Zhoumeng, happy to annoy Wen Xinghuo, readily agreed.

But she was simply bad at it; every time she almost won, the prize would fall. Five tries passed quickly.

Xi Zhoumeng: “Again.”

Chi Yueshan slapped her palm, “Let’s go, your family is waiting, don’t be late.”

Xi Zhoumeng refused to leave.

She was naturally radiant among beautiful people, and it didn’t matter on this street.

Everyone would look at her twice, wondering if she was some interstellar star.

Chi Yueshan felt the awkwardness of taking a child out.

And this child was her girlfriend.

“Let’s go, really.”

She pulled Xi Zhoumeng’s hand, but was pulled back.

Xi Zhoumeng: “Five more tries.”

She wasn’t short of money, yesterday’s attempt at winning the goose was a humiliation, and failing to redeem herself now was somewhat embarrassing in front of Chi Yueshan.

Chi Yueshan: “What’s there to be embarrassed about? Look, that kid next door didn’t win either…”

Ah, she didn’t notice that the child had just won an incredibly ugly doll.

But what’s the point of such an ugly doll?

Xi Zhoumeng seriously said, “I can do it.”

Chi Yueshan took a deep breath, “Which one do you like?”

The dolls in this machine were a bit prettier than the ones next door, but many had crooked mouths and cross-eyes, and the stitching was cheap.

How could the Xi family’s young miss like them?

Xi Zhoumeng was thinking of Chi Yueshan’s description of the lower world after they were intimate: arcades, slot machines, claw machines, and trampolines.

Chi Yueshan said that other children had parents to play with them, but she didn’t.

Xi Zhoumeng didn’t either.

Her childhood was spent in a cage in the sky; there was no other entertainment, only things she had to learn, without relaxation.

“I like…”

Xi Zhoumeng looked at the dolls inside, too ugly to choose.

Chi Yueshan: “See, they’re not as pretty as me.”

She said it naturally, perfectly replicating Xi Zhoumeng’s usual vanity.

Xi Zhoumeng: “They’re not as pretty as you, but this dog looks like you.”

Chi Yueshan: “What?”

She turned to look. In the corner was a white, scruffy dog, its stitching undone, looking like its teeth were bared.

“Xi Zhoumeng, do you want to die!! Where do I look like this!! Thing!!”

Xi Zhoumeng laughed, “It’s cute.”

Her laughter was light, making Chi Yueshan stunned. She quickly looked away, inserting five game credits, “If you like it, I’ll get it for you!”

Xi Zhoumeng stood beside her, confidently saying, “I don’t believe you can get it.”

The claw machine here was different from those centuries ago; solar charging, mechanical operation, fully automated.

Chi Yueshan couldn’t guarantee she could win, but she could cheat.

She said to Xi Zhoumeng, “Come closer.”

Xi Zhoumeng didn’t react, “What?”

Chi Yueshan lowered her voice, “Your dress is big, cover me.”

Xi Zhoumeng exclaimed, “You want to hide under my skirt?”

Chi Yueshan gritted her teeth, “Can you be normal?”

Xi Zhoumeng nodded.

She hugged Chi Yueshan from behind; they looked like a loving couple.

But Xi Zhoumeng looked down and saw that Chi Yueshan had experimented twice in five tries. The third time, she used a small device she took out from somewhere, which could magnetically attach to the claw machine, like a remote control.

Unfortunately, she didn’t win.

Xi Zhoumeng: “You’re cheating.”

Chi Yueshan elbowed her, “You don’t understand what it means to be the top mecha engineer in the galaxy.”

Xi Zhoumeng readily agreed; she hadn’t been this happy before, her eyebrows and eyes filled with joy, “I think you’re the top cheater in the galaxy.”

Chi Yueshan was focused, unable to elbow her again, nervously operating her cheating device, moving the claw and determining the position.

It was still raining lightly outside. Xi Zhoumeng held a parasol, the handle resting on her shoulder, smiling at Chi Yueshan.

From her face to her neck.

She suddenly asked, “Did you use this technique to sneak into Wen Xinghuo’s rest room before?”

Chi Yueshan was startled, her hand trembled, wasting her fourth chance.

She glared at Xi Zhoumeng, “Don’t disturb me! Do you still want the dog?”

Xi Zhoumeng hummed, “I already have one.”

She hugged Chi Yueshan’s waist. From behind, the parasol covered their upper bodies, only their intimate atmosphere could be felt.

Chi Yueshan: “Since we’re here, we have to succeed this time.”

Her competitive spirit surged. In the lower world, when Zhou Fengqin was still alive, she had the chance to play these roadside games.

Only she didn’t have much money, so she played sparingly.

This was Chi Yueshan’s first time cheating. She was serious, and Xi Zhoumeng could feel her tension.

The claw grabbed the ugly dog doll, Chi Yueshan’s face was almost against the glass.

The rain wasn’t heavy outside.

The twilight rain was like silk. Chi Yueshan bit her lip, nervously staring at the claw, her hand holding the mechanical control stone was hot.

The claw carrying the dog doll slowly moved on the mechanical track; the previous two times, it fell in the middle.

Chi Yueshan held her breath, forgetting there was someone beside her.

Xi Zhoumeng’s competitive spirit disappeared; she admired Chi Yueshan at this moment.

Her tightly pursed lips, beautiful eyes, clenched fists, and tense abdomen.

So cute.

How could there be such a lively person in the world?

The claw released the doll in the dispensing area. Chi Yueshan breathed a sigh of relief, triumphantly turning to show off to Xi Zhoumeng.

“See, I… uh.”

The hand around her waist tightened, pulling her up as she turned, forcing Chi Yueshan to look up to receive the sudden kiss.

The arcade machines were outside, the awning was small, dusk enveloped the upper world, hovercars whizzed past on the sky track.

Pedestrians walked slowly, the child next door didn’t win a doll, and a frustrated sigh could be heard.

Raindrops fell on Xi Zhoumeng’s umbrella, one by one, burning into Chi Yueshan’s heart.

She uncontrollably hugged her waist, responding to the invasion of her lips and teeth.

The ugly dog fell into the dispensing area. Xi Zhoumeng bent down, picking up the doll, disdainfully clicking her tongue, “This contrast makes you look like a fairy.”

Chi Yueshan blushed easily, even more so when aroused.

It seemed like a kiss could make her cry from pleasure. Her eyes, nose, and lips were red, she snatched the dog doll.

“It’s not ugly! It’s my baby! I worked so hard to get it!”

Xi Zhoumeng said, “You make it sound like you gave birth to it.”

Chi Yueshan: “Hey!”

Xi Zhoumeng: “I know, I won’t make that kind of joke again.”

They kissed, got the doll, and she was satisfied, pulling Chi Yueshan under her umbrella, walking into the long twilight rain.

Xi Zhoumeng: “Do AO couples have to have children?”

Chi Yueshan: “Isn’t that the norm? I’ve never seen an AO couple who are married and infertile.”

Xi Zhoumeng: “Really? Absolutely none?”

Chi Yueshan: “Why are you asking so clearly? I only know that we’re a 100% match.”

Xi Zhoumeng sighed sadly, “Then it’s good that I’m an Omega, at least I won’t get you pregnant.”

Chi Yueshan: “Can you say that on the street?”

Xi Zhoumeng: “Why are you shy? We need to seriously consider this issue.”

Chi Yueshan: “You make it sound like you can control it. Yesterday you said you couldn’t wait to become an Alpha and mark me.”

Xi Zhoumeng opened the car door for Chi Yueshan, putting away the umbrella, “I thought so, but I’m afraid you’ll have a child.”

Chi Yueshan: “You said there are no second genders in your world, then the girls you like won’t have children either, or you don’t want to…”

Xi Zhoumeng ignored the messages from Xi Li on her holocom, “I don’t know.”

“I wasn’t an expected child, and I often think, it would be better if I wasn’t born.”

Chi Yueshan: “Did your mother have you unexpectedly?”

Xi Zhoumeng nodded, “She thinks I ruined her life.”

She said it lightly, the hovercar entering the sky track. The rain beat against the windows, Xi Zhoumeng’s shadow on the window looked like it was being gently carved by raindrops.

Chi Yueshan stuffed the dog doll into Xi Zhoumeng’s arms, grabbing her hand, “But you won’t be that kind of mother.”

She leaned closer to look at Xi Zhoumeng’s face, “But you can’t give birth anyway, if I have one, I’ll definitely love her.”

Chi Yueshan nodded, even though this wasn’t in her plan, she still looked forward to it.

“The person closest to me in this world, I’m so excited.”

“The family I want is complete.”

Her hand was warm, holding Xi Zhoumeng’s hand gently, even without mentioning Xi Zhoumeng, Xi Zhoumeng felt included.

The next second, Xi Zhoumeng hugged Chi Yueshan, asking her, “Aren’t there any cases of Alphas giving birth?”

Chi Yueshan exclaimed, about to scold her for being crazy, when she heard Xi Zhoumeng say, “I’m not afraid of pain.”
