    Chapter 105: A Choice to Make

    The night was deep and still. Emerald Island was left with only the sound of waves gently lapping against the beach.

    Shao Chengxi leaned against the headboard, holding Shu Lin, whom he had exhausted and sent into a deep sleep, in his arms.

    The Omega’s eyelashes still clung to unshed tears, and his fair skin was covered in amorous red marks, making him look particularly endearing.

    Shao Chengxi gently stroked Shu Lin’s cheek, but his gaze gradually darkened.

    He picked up his phone and opened the search interface—”Dubbing Circle Shu You He Fang.”

    “Shu You He Fang” was Shu Lin’s stage name.

    The screen immediately jumped to a series of related entries:

    #NightWithoutTraceVoiceActorShuYouHeFangSexSceneIsAmazing#

    #ShuYouHeFang’sNewRadioDramaPassionateSceneDubbingGoesViral#

    #RequestShuYouHeFangToDubMoreRomanceDramas#

    ……

    Shao Chengxi’s brows furrowed even tighter.

    He clicked on one of the topics and found that Shu Lin’s dubbing clips had been edited into various short videos, and the comments section was bustling:

    [User A]: Help! I’ve listened to this gasp ten times! Shu You He Fang’s voice is too seductive!

    [User B]: Can someone tell me who this voice actor is? I need all of his information in three minutes!

    [User C]: Heard he’s an Omega? Want to mark him +1

    The Alpha’s canines unconsciously ground together.

    Shao Chengxi suppressed his anger and continued scrolling, discovering that Shu Lin was already somewhat famous in the dubbing circle and even had his own fan club.

    Shao Chengxi gently pinched his earlobe and murmured, “Baby, you’re quite popular.”

    He turned off his phone and fell into deep thought.

    The Shao family was involved in both politics and business, and had always paid little attention to niche circles like dubbing.

    Although the Shu family knew that Shu Lin was doing dubbing, they had never deeply understood the ecosystem of this industry.

    So these trending topics couldn’t enter the view of either family.

    This was the so-called information barrier, wasn’t it?

    If Shu Lin wasn’t Shao Chengxi’s Omega, he would be free to develop however he wanted in the future.

    However, he was Shao Chengxi’s Omega, and things weren’t that simple.

    The next day, Shao Chengxi specially found an opportunity to privately invite Shu Lingxiao for a walk by the sea.

    “Sister, I want to discuss something with you.” Shao Chengxi went straight to the point, “It’s about Xiaolin’s dubbing work.”

    Shu Lingxiao raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong? Xiaolin likes dubbing work very much. As far as I know, he’s been doing quite well recently.”

    Shao Chengxi smiled wryly, “Yes, he’s very popular in that circle.”

    As he spoke, he handed his phone to Shu Lingxiao, the screen showing those trending topics and comments.

    The more Shu Lingxiao looked, the more solemn her expression became, “How could this be? These are…”

    Without Shao Chengxi having to say it, she knew what he was going to say next.

    Shao Chengxi was a political figure, and his future goal was the presidency.

    Shu Lin would graduate from university in a year, and then his identity would be made public, drawing public attention because he was Shao Chengxi’s Omega.

    As the future First Gentleman, his every word and action would be magnified and scrutinized.

    If these dubbing clips and fan comments were used by people with ulterior motives, they could very well become a handle for politicians to attack Shao Chengxi.

    “I understand what you mean.” Shu Lingxiao said decisively, “Leave this to me, I will talk to Xiaolin and try to persuade him to give up this line of work.”

    Shao Chengxi shook his head, “Sister, that’s not what I meant, it would hurt his heart.”

    He proposed a compromise.

    Serve the Public Media would specifically set up a dubbing column, hiring Shu Lin as a resident guest, specializing in dubbing for serious dramas.

    Through accumulation, his voice could become the familiar official voice of the people.

    “This way, he can continue his beloved career and avoid risks. Sister, what do you think?” Shao Chengxi asked for her opinion.

    Shu Lingxiao pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement, “This is a good idea. We can set up a studio for him and let Xiaolin’s friend Gu Xiao manage it, it’s safe and reliable.”

    After the two reached a consensus, they acted separately.

    That afternoon, Shu Lingxiao took Shu Lin to a secluded reef by the sea.

    This matter was indeed not suitable for Shao Chengxi to discuss with Shu Lin.

    No matter how reasonable he was, Shu Lin would misunderstand.

    The siblings sat on the beach, looking out at the sea, chatting and laughing.

    They first talked about some trivial family matters, and gradually, Shu Lingxiao steered the topic to his work.

    “Xiaolin, I want to discuss something with you.” Shu Lingxiao’s tone became serious.

    Shu Lin tilted his head, “Sister, what’s wrong?”

    Shu Lingxiao turned to face him, carefully choosing her words, “About your dubbing work… I suggest you be selective, maybe some types of scripts are not suitable for you.”

    As soon as Shu Lin heard this, his face instantly turned red, “Sister, you, you also know, those scenes are really just for work…”

    Hmph, that damned Shao Chengxi, pretending not to care on the surface, but secretly complaining to his sister.

    He had pleased him in every way on the bed last night, and it was all useless.

    Shu Lingxiao saw what he was thinking at a glance, and didn’t explain for Shao Chengxi, but followed his words:

    “I know, I’m not saying these dramas of yours are bad, on the contrary, you work very hard and dub them very well, this point, you can tell from your Alpha’s reaction.”

    Shu Lin pouted in shame, “He, he’s just a big jealous pot!”

    Shu Lingxiao couldn’t help but laugh, reaching out to rub his hair, “Dad said, Alphas are all like this, if my future Omega is like this, I’d probably be even more jealous.”

    Speaking of this, she paused and restrained her smile:

    “Xiaolin, to be fair, this matter can’t be simply attributed to your Alpha being jealous. There are some aspects that you haven’t realized.”

    Shu Lin blinked, listening to her obediently.

    Afterwards, Shu Lingxiao carefully analyzed the possible problems involved.

    After listening, Shu Lin bit his lip, his eyes a little red, “But… this is my job.”

    It was also his small ideal.

    Although compared to Shao Chengxi’s life goals, it was insignificant.

    Shu Lingxiao looked at him, feeling distressed, “I know.”

    However, a choice had to be made.

    As for Shao Chengxi’s proposal, she didn’t mention it.

    Let Shao Chengxi say it himself, she wouldn’t steal the credit, nor did she want to create a gap between them because of this matter.

    Shu Lin lowered his head and muttered, “Sister, let me think about it alone.”

    Shu Lingxiao sighed softly, got up, patted him on the shoulder, and turned to leave.

    Just like that, Shu Lin sat there until the sun set.

    Since Shu Lingxiao left, Shao Chengxi had been hiding behind the reef, secretly paying attention to his Omega.

    Shu Lin was sometimes in a daze, sometimes in tears, his face full of contradictions and unwillingness.

    This made Shao Chengxi’s heart ache.

    He knew that it was unfair to ask Shu Lin to make sacrifices for him.

    But for both public and private reasons, he had to harden his heart.

    But he really couldn’t bear to see his baby upset.

    Alas, it broke his heart.
