~9 min read 1,703 words

Luo Mo could not believe that this day would come so quickly.

The two of them had indeed stopped using contraception intentionally, but he hadn't expected... it to be so accurate!

One has to say, the matter of pregnancy is truly quite magical.

Some people try very earnestly to prepare for pregnancy, going to the gym, Quit Smoking, and counting the days for intercourse... but they just can't conceive.

Yet some people might just have a "let it be" attitude, and they manage to get it done in one go.

After learning he was going to be a father, Luo Mo was first stunned, then ecstatic, and immediately after, he was actually a bit nervous.

"I feel like I'm not ready yet," he said with a silly smile.

"What can we do? You're already pregnant," Xu Chujing said.

"It's a good thing, that's definitely a good thing. Let's just proceed as we discussed before," Luo Mo said.

"With your current status in the entertainment industry, are you really willing to give it up?" Xu Chujing asked.

"What's there to be unwilling about?" Luo Mo said nonchalantly.

When a woman is pregnant, she definitely needs to rest for a period of time and focus on the pregnancy.

Therefore, Xu Chujing would, like most female celebrities, briefly withdraw from the entertainment industry for a period of time.

Luo Mo had previously promised her that he would also withdraw from the entertainment industry first to focus on accompanying her through the pregnancy, and would not participate in work for the time being.

This is actually a decision that an average person would not dare to make.

The entertainment industry updates and replaces people very quickly.

To just disappear like this for a year, for many people, would very likely lead to Elimination.

But Luo Mo naturally had no such worries.

He did not feel that he would be replaced by anyone.

Not to mention anything else, just look at the music scene.

Even if he didn't release a new song for five years, his old songs would still occupy half of the Hot Song Chart; in the top 100, at least half of the songs were written by him.

Having debuted for so many years, he had long since lived into an era of his own.

………

………

The next day, Xu Chujing and Luo Mo announced this happy news to everyone across the entire internet together, and publicly declared that the two would briefly withdraw from the entertainment industry for a period of time.

In an instant, this news caused a sensation across the entire internet, and Weibo crashed again directly.

Weibo's technical staff: "Used to it."

Every time you think you've become stronger and that Luo Mo could never crash our platform again, he always manages to pull off another big move.

The last time it was the marriage proposal, and this time, pregnancy plus a temporary withdrawal from all work is an even more unprecedented sensation.

But looking at it from another angle: "At least for these few months, there's no need to worry about Weibo crashing."

The next time it crashes, it will probably be when the child is born...

As for the silly netizens, they all had complicated feelings.

For such happy news, fans and passersby were certainly all offering their congratulations.

But with both of them temporarily withdrawing from the entertainment industry, it could be said that everyone would have much less fun.

"An entertainment industry without Luo Mo, just thinking about it is no fun!"

"Then during this time, I'm Afraid there won't be any good works to watch!"

"Awesome, directly quitting all work to accompany his wife through the pregnancy, truly a real man!"

"He has the confidence to do so, knowing he won't be easily replaced."

"Yeah, if it were a traffic star, disappearing for half a year would cause their popularity to plummet off a cliff!"

And for Luo Mo's crowd of old rivals, they were now all plunged into ecstasy!

"Hahaha, Luo Mo is finally not stirring up trouble!"

"Get all those shelved projects started for me!"

"Hurry, hurry, time is too precious now; the time ahead is our best period to come back to life!"

"Starting from today, the entertainment industry is finally back to being run by us!"

"Hurry and seize the market; once he returns, everything will be difficult to handle again!"

"Damn it, after the baby is born, you'd better accompany Xu Chujing through her postpartum recovery, and then be a stay-at-home dad for a while to enjoy your family time! Such a short amount of time is simply not enough for us to use!"

The various capitalists were all harboring their own ulterior motives, and behind the scenes, they had already begun to compete.

……..

……..

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, four months had gone by.

Xu Chujing's belly had grown quite a bit, and it was already obvious that she was a pregnant woman.

Compared to before the pregnancy, she had become a little plumper, and her cheeks looked a bit rounder as well.

She now didn't care about anything in the entertainment industry at all, just focusing on the pregnancy and enjoying life.

And in reality, ever since Luo Mo withdrew from the entertainment industry, many people finally gradually understood a truth.

"It's not that the entertainment industry of these past few years has gotten better; it's just that Luo Mo was holding it up all by himself."

For a full four months, everyone clearly felt that the cultural and entertainment industry had returned to that same old shitty state.

Capital began to regain control of everything, and there were more and more foul and chaotic things happening.

Traffic stars were more active than before, and various variety shows, in order to attract attention, dared to do all sorts of messy and chaotic show effects.

As for TV dramas and movies, they could occasionally produce some high-quality works.

But the sense of anticipation they gave people was never as strong as the anticipation for Luo Mo in the past.

After all, when you go to the cinema to watch a new film, it's a bit like opening a blind box; heaven knows if the thing is actually any good.

But Luo Mo's films are different; he has never made a bad film.

As for the music scene... it's better left unmentioned.

The one that has regressed the most is always the music scene.

Nowadays, the songs that are popular are all from Douyue, and one can almost never see any talented Newcomers.

If you think back carefully, in these past five or six years, how many Newcomer Singers have you remembered?

And the situation on the Hot Song Chart was, as expected, just as Luo Mo had anticipated.

The popularity of his old songs remained very firm, and from time to time, they would suddenly dominate the chart, directly occupying more than half of the top ten.

On the Weibo Hot Search list, a topic would pop up from time to time: Missing Luo Mo.

When Luo Mo saw this Hot Search himself, he couldn't help but want to retort: "I've only briefly stepped back for a while, it's not like I'm dead!"

And this period of "early retirement" also gradually made Luo Mo understand a truth.

That is, there is no need to make oneself so busy.

He used to always feel that he carried a civilization on his shoulders, possessed too many good works, and had a sense that time was running out.

But he now realizes that, in fact, within that long river of civilization, what he can take is also limited.

It's just that he, as a person, really can't stay idle.

Sometimes, seeing some old rivals start jumping around again really makes him very unhappy, and he wishes he could make a comeback right now and cut them down!

Xu Chujing suspects that one day, when Luo Mo is white-haired and lying on a hospital bed, upon learning that the entertainment industry has become foul and chaotic again, he might even say to the caregiver: "Help me up, I want to write a few more songs!"

Even if this person retires, it is likely only intermittent.

"I'm retired!"

"Hey! I'm back again!"

Time flies like an arrow, the sun and moon like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, it was Xu Chujing's due date.

Luo Mo took her to move into the hospital's VIP delivery room in advance.

This woman with a powerful aura also had a bit of a "little woman" state these past few days; she would be a little nervous from time to time, her nerves would be taut, fearing that if she wasn't careful, she would go into labor.

At nightfall, the two lay on the bed, watching Ning Dan's new variety show together.

Xu Chujing seemed to have remembered something and said: "Do you know why I paid special attention to you in Ning Dao's Creating Idols?"

"Because I'm the most handsome and the most talented?" Luo Mo answered quite matter-of-factly.

"No." Xu Chujing shook her head.

This secret had only ever been known to the female Psychologist Ye Mei; she had never mentioned it to Luo Mo, or rather, was she a bit shy to speak of it?

"Then what is it for?" Luo Mo asked, expressing some lack of understanding.

"Because on the night before the official recording, I had a dream."

"What dream?"

"I dreamed that I had an extra memory; in this memory, I turned into a Cat, a white Cat that was snow-white all over, without a single stray hair."

"This dream was very real, and the person I happened to be living with in the dream was named Luo Mo, which is why I paid special attention to you from the very beginning."

"By the way, this Cat's name was also very strange; I don't know how it was named, but it was actually called Baibaibai."

"What!?" Upon hearing this, Luo Mo sat up in shock from the bed, looking at Xu Chujing with an expression of disbelief.
