Does what Abdullah bin Umar did by kissing his concubine in front of people contradict the prohibition of kissing in front of other women (darayir) mentioned in Fatwa No. 103960?

The story mentioned about Ibn Omar is weak due to its being flawed by Hashim not hearing from Ali bin Zayd, and the presence of Ali bin Zayd bin Jud'an in the chain of narration, who is weak. Even if the story were to be considered authentic, it would be regarded as a moment of human weakness and not be taken as an example to be emulated. Emulation is based on general guidance, not on a moment of personal weakness. Some scholars have held that Ibn Omar's action was a form of self-reproach, not an argument for a position.
