After Shen Liyan's baby's one-month celebration, the end of the year was also approaching. Shang Shujue and Song Yanqing packed their bags early and headed to S City, which was thousands of kilometers away from the grassland.
The night before she was to leave, Shen Lanting held her younger brother's hand and gave him instructions for nearly two hours, until little Shen Liyan woke up and wanted to be fed.
Shang Shujue readily agreed, telling him not to worry too much. Song Yanqing was also inevitably subjected to a lecture from his family, who mostly told him to take good care of Shang Shujue.
Although it's now officially permitted for Omegas to go out and work legitimately, he is still an Omega, so he needs to be extra careful when he's out and about to live a peaceful life.
Song Yanqing didn't say much and agreed to everything. The next morning, they went to the train station together and took the train to S City. They arrived at the house that Nuomi had bought the next morning.
"Phew... We're finally home, Nuomi. You decorated this place just like our old home. Great job, as expected of my dear Nuomi."
"That's right, don't you even know whose system I am?"
After entering the house, Shang Shujue lay down on the sofa and hugged Nuomi, kissing and stroking her fur. After a brief moment of passion, he instantly exhausted his last bit of energy and vitality.
"You must be starving. I'll cook you a bowl of noodles first. After you eat, you can go to sleep. I'll unpack the things I brought and then come sleep with you. We can go out after we've both had enough sleep."
Seeing that Shang Shujue had been excited for a while but then lay listlessly on the sofa, Song Yanqing felt a little sorry for him and gently rubbed his head. His A-Jue hadn't taken a train in a long time, and this trip was exhausting for the sake of his persona.
"Okay~ I want egg noodles, and two fried eggs."
Shang Shujue rolled over and lay flat, grabbing Song Yanqing's hand and placing it on her cheek. Her eyes sparkled, showing great interest in the egg noodles he had made.
"Okay~" Song Yanqing chuckled and pinched his cheek, then reached out and tugged at his shirt to cover his exposed belly button. "Cover your belly button a little, or you'll get diarrhea."
"Pfft, you're treating me like a child? I'm not like that little brat Shen Liyan, who gets diarrhea and fever just from showing his belly button. I don't get diarrhea that easily!"
Shang Shujue was amused by Song Yanqing's words and couldn't resist pinching his cheek. She propped herself up and gave him a kiss, then bit him afterward, though it didn't hurt or itch.
"Sigh, I've been taking care of the baby too much. I'll go check on the kitchen."
Song Yanqing suddenly realized that his subconscious behavior was a bit too silly. He coughed lightly and made an excuse to leave. Shang Shujue was still smiling as she watched his back. After laughing for a while, she remembered that she needed to prepare two cell phones.
" Nuomi, could you buy us two phones online? It seems like you need a phone for almost everything in this world."
Shang Shujue turned his head and saw Nuomi lying on the sofa playing with a ball of yarn. He didn't know where she had found it, but she was using all four paws to play with it.
"Host, I already placed the order in your name. The store manager will deliver it in about ten minutes. Just wait to pick it up. The card was also processed online. It's quite convenient to handle these kinds of transactions here."
Nuomi continued to work hard while holding the ball of yarn, but she did not give perfunctory answers to the host's questions. Her answers were very reliable, which made Shang Shujue very gratified.
"Great, great, Nuomi, Nuomi, it has to be you."
Shang Shujue rubbed Nuomi's belly, then stood up from the sofa, ran into the kitchen, glanced at Song Yanqing frying eggs, and nodded with great satisfaction.
"Great job! These eggs are fried to a golden brown and crispy perfection, just what I wanted. Song Yanqing, you're amazing!"
"Pfft, yes, yes, impressive, really impressive! You'd better stay away, or the hot oil will splash on your hands."
While the two were bickering, the phone was delivered to their door. Shang Shujue ran to open it and was a little surprised to see an Omega woman in business attire standing outside.
"Oh, you must be Mr. Shang Shujue. These two phones are exactly what you need. They're our latest models, and the SIM cards and everything else have already been arranged for you."
The Omega store manager was also a little surprised. He hadn't expected that the person who bought the phone online would be a young and handsome male Omega. After the initial surprise, he was also very happy.
Omega are now financially independent, which is so much better than before.
"You can check the data plans and other details on the app. If you have any questions, you can call the number listed there, and our colleagues will help you. Have a nice day."
"Okay, thank you, and I wish you great fortune."
"Haha, thank you for your kind words, goodbye."
"Goodbye."
After seeing the person off, Shang Shujue took the two phones back to his room and closed the door. He opened the phones with some anticipation, only to find that they were a matching set, one black and one white.
It's the latest model on the market, with a huge storage capacity and extremely fast operating speed. Shang Shujue fell in love with it the moment he touched it, and quickly downloaded Starblog to read the latest news on entertainment, politics, and other topics.
"This model of phone is quite rare. Even among ordinary people, it would cost tens of thousands of yuan. Honey, wouldn't it be too conspicuous to take a phone like this to the film set?"
Song Yanqing brought out two bowls of noodles. When he saw the other phone on the table, he unconsciously raised his eyebrows slightly and placed one of the bowls of noodles in front of him.
"It's alright, this phone runs quite fast. Even shooting transition videos and short videos is fine. Let's start with short videos after we acquire the company."
Shang Shujue put down her phone, looked up at Song Yanqing, and frowned slightly. "I just looked into it. The development level of short videos in this world is less than 10%. We've acted in so many dramas together; it's time to give the natives of this place a little shock."
"It seems you already have a plan."
Song Yanqing sat down next to him, a slight smile playing on his lips. He then handed him chopsticks. Shang Shujue nodded, deciding to eat his noodles first before discussing things further.
Song Yanqing fried an egg for Nuomi and let him nibble on it slowly while he ate some himself. After the meal, they chatted briefly about the direction of their journey before going back to their bedroom to sleep.
When they woke up, it was already past six in the evening. They went out for a quick meal and then walked to the entertainment company they were planning to acquire— Jiajili Entertainment.
Before they arrived, Nuomi had made an appointment in advance. When they arrived, they were led directly to the president's office. Inside, a female Beta sat upright, her face showing exhaustion and helplessness.
She was surprised for a moment when she saw the two men enter, but then stood up to greet them. "You must be Mr. Song and Mr. Shang. Please come in. I'm so sorry, I've been so busy lately that I didn't have time to come down and greet you. I'm so sorry."
As Zhang Yan spoke, she ushered them to the sofa and personally poured them herbal tea. Shang Shujue smiled gently, seemingly unperturbed, and said, "It's nothing, thank you."
The two parties sat down and discussed the acquisition of the company. After Zhang Yan understood their purpose, she remained silent for a long time. She knew that the company she ran was not considered anything special in the industry, and even seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
She had considered selling the company, but she was worried that if she outsourced it, the few remaining employees would be treated unfairly, so she was conflicted.
But she didn't dwell on it for long. After all, of the two people who came, the tall Alpha hadn't said a word, so he was probably someone she could rely on.
So, with a heavy heart, he sold the company. From the handover to the procedures of re-drafting the legal representative, the whole process took nearly three months to be completed.
During these three months, Nuomi took on the roles of legal and financial counsel, working with great intensity and forgetting personal feelings, but she still managed to resolve some of the company's hidden problems.
The company changed its name to Qing Shu Yi Yan Entertainment Co., Ltd.., which sounds artistic and evokes a sense of goodwill...
