Chapter 56: The Child Was Born from Him
When Yu Weixi opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Niangao’s chubby face.
“Daddy is awake!” Niangao, like the others, got up and carefully poured water for Yu Weixi. “Daddy, drink some water!”
Yu Weixi blinked, propped himself up on the bed, and leaned against the headboard. He took the plastic water cup from Niangao.
Yu Weixi looked around. Everything was white. Shuangshuang was sitting on the side, keeping watch.
“Did I faint on the set…?” Yu Weixi tried hard to recall what had happened before he lost consciousness. Wasn’t he on the wire just fine… why did he suddenly faint?
“Yes, you scared us to death…!” Shuangshuang patted her chest. “It’s a good thing nothing serious happened!”
Shuangshuang explained, “After you fainted, the production team sent you to the hospital here, but the doctors couldn’t find anything wrong. Although the check-up showed that you were fine, you still didn’t wake up, so we also invited Dr. Feng.”
Yu Weixi’s eyes widened. “Dr. Feng is here too!?”
Yu Weixi was actually a little… afraid of Dr. Feng.
Are all people with the surname Feng like this, Yu Weixi thought. Like a mother hen, always nagging him.
“Yes, Dr. Feng is currently negotiating with the doctor and handling the procedures.” Shuangshuang smiled. “He’ll be back soon.”
Yu Weixi felt a little frustrated.
Shuangshuang said, “Dr. Feng is probably going to scold you. He said it’s nothing serious, you just have neurasthenia from overwork, which is why you fainted from the sudden high-intensity exercise.”
Neurasthenia…?
Yu Weixi frowned.
No, overwork. When am I not overworked? Although with Chu Qing’s matter and his training with an injury, could this really lead to neurasthenia? Am I that weak??
Yu Weixi hugged Niangao, drank some water, and activated the system.
“Beep… beep… Host…”
Yu Weixi: “…”
The system’s voice was sickly, as if it were running out of power, intermittent and faint.
Yu Weixi: “What’s wrong with you??”
“Host… it’s easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality…”
Yu Weixi: “???”
The system then explained to Yu Weixi intermittently.
All along, Yu Weixi had been nourishing the system with sufficient, even excessive, dark energy. But now, ever since Yu Weixi had closed Dylan Bot and would no longer take the initiative to roast people, the dark energy had dropped sharply. And before, with Luo Yucheng’s matter, Yu Weixi had almost been completely whitewashed. Now everyone was feeling sorry for and praising him.
Therefore, although Yu Weixi’s dark energy still had some income, there was already a gap.
“Because of this… zzt… the system is temporarily unable to… operate.”
Yu Weixi resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
“Big brother, the 5G era is almost here, and you’re still on a wired connection? You’re going to lag just because the dark energy has dropped??”
Lagging was one thing, but it had even made him have neurasthenia and faint. This was simply a terrible product.
“Zzt… Host, do you still remember? If you don’t complete the mission… there will be a punishment…”
Yu Weixi paused.
“Now… it’s just the beginning… the system will become more and more, unable to operate, and then bring punishment…”
Then the system shut down.
Yu Weixi lowered his eyes and looked at his palm silently.
…Trash system.
“Ah…! Yan-ge is calling!” Shuangshuang’s words interrupted Yu Weixi’s thoughts.
“Yes, yes, he’s already woken up. Don’t worry. It’s just as the private doctor said. It’s really nothing serious, just exhaustion.”
“Okay, I’ll pass it to you.”
Shuangshuang then handed the phone to Feng Yan.
“Xixi.” A somewhat hoarse, adult male voice came from the other end of the phone.
Yu Weixi said “Mmm.”
“Xixi, I can’t get away from here. The filming has to continue on my side to catch up on your gap and rush the schedule. Can I come and pick you up to go back to the production team tomorrow morning?”
Yu Weixi’s eyes widened. “I have to sleep in the hospital for a day?”
It’s just mental exhaustion. Is it that serious!
“Good boy, Xixi. Stay and have a full check-up, okay? You can’t be careless with your body.”
“…”
Yu Weixi said coolly, “I think you’ve already arranged it for me. I don’t have much of a chance to refuse, right?”
“That’s right.” Feng Yan was matter-of-fact.
Yu Weixi: “…”
…Trash Feng dog, trash team.
Yu Weixi said impatiently, “Alright, I’m hanging up.”
“Xixi, remember, if you’re uncomfortable anywhere, you must tell the doctor. If…”
Beep—
Feng Yan was directly hung up on by Yu Weixi.
“Pfft…” Shuangshuang, on the side, held back her laughter and couldn’t help but light a candle for Feng Yan.
After hanging up on Feng Yan, Yu Weixi had nothing to do, so he looked at the script to prepare for the next scene, holding Niangao and occasionally saying a few words to him.
Seeing that Yu Weixi was in good spirits, the assistant went downstairs to buy him some food.
Not long after, Yu Weixi’s private doctor—Dr. Feng, Feng Bai—came in.
“Xiao Xi.”
“Dr. Feng.” Seeing the middle-aged man, Yu Weixi “swish” and quickly stuffed the script under his pillow, as skilled as a student who had been caught reading a comic book in class by a teacher.
“Uncle Feng!!” Niangao also smiled and waved at Feng Bai, greeting him enthusiastically.
Since he was a child, most of Niangao’s illnesses had been treated by Feng Bai. Feng Bai was very kind to children and would even give him candy after the treatment. Niangao liked him very much.
“Has Niangao been obedient, drinking his milk and eating more vegetables?” Feng Bai went up and ruffled Niangao’s hair.
“I have!” Niangao nodded like a pecking chicken. “The teacher gives me vegetables every day, and Daddy makes milk for me to drink every day. Daddy says I’m obedient!”
“Good.” Feng Bai nodded with satisfaction, then glanced at Yu Weixi with a blank expression. “But your daddy doesn’t seem to be as obedient as Niangao.”
Yu Weixi: “…”
Feng Bai glanced at Yu Weixi’s pillow. “Xiao Xi, I saw it.”
Yu Weixi: “…”
“Xiao Xi.” Feng Bai frowned. “It’s been five years. In these five years, every time you’ve come to me, you should reflect on what it was for. It’s always overwork! Dizziness, pain caused by overwork, and your waist problem is not a matter of a day or two. Can’t you take better care of your own body?”
Yu Weixi didn’t dare to retort to Dr. Feng like he did to Feng Yan and could only be told off with a wronged expression.
Niangao nodded like a little adult in agreement, “Right! Daddy doesn’t take care of his body! He even dances when he’s sick!”
Feng Bai said helplessly, “Yes, the body is a person’s most important capital. Don’t be too crazy.”
“Oh.”
Feng Bai said, “I’ll adjust your nutrition and diet for you later, but you also have to pay attention yourself. Don’t over-practice. Filming is already very physically demanding, so don’t secretly practice dancing. Understand?”
“Oh…”
“Right…” Feng Bai glanced at the bracelet on Yu Weixi’s wrist and frowned. “Your bracelet… where did you get it?”
This bracelet…
How does it look exactly the same as their old Feng family’s ancestral bracelet?? The previous Feng family’s bracelet was given by his father to Feng Yan’s mother. Now, Feng Yan’s mother has passed it on to Feng Yan, saying that it’s for the future daughter-in-law of the Feng family.
Although it was not impossible for there to be similar-looking bracelets, Feng Bai was a doctor. It was not good for him to carefully examine a patient’s private belongings during an examination, so he had not looked closely and could not be sure.
Is it a coincidence or…??
Feng Bai found it a little fantastic.
“Ah…” Yu Weixi’s ears were slightly red. “What’s wrong…?”
“Just asking casually.”
“A gift from a friend.”
The consultation was over anyway, so Feng Bai chatted with Yu Weixi for a few more sentences.
“A friend? Such a valuable gift?” Feng Bai teased, “Probably not an ordinary friend, right?”
Yu Weixi glanced at the bracelet and blinked. “Is it a very valuable thing?”
Feng Bai smiled. “If it’s a genuine piece, how can jade not be valuable?”
“Is this a genuine piece?” Yu Weixi held up his hand blankly.
Feng Bai looked down. This time, he looked at it openly and carefully for a little longer, and he couldn’t help but feel more and more…
This is the old Feng family’s ancestral bracelet, isn’t it??
Hmm??
Feng Bai: “…”
The amount of information was a little large.
Feng Bai cleared his throat. “I’m not a professional. I can’t tell.”
“Oh…”
“You should rest first. We’ll do a full body check-up later.”
Feng Bai left the ward and happened to run into Shuangshuang, who was coming up with a lunch box. He recognized that this was Yu Weixi’s assistant and immediately stopped her. “Miss.”
“Mmm? Does the doctor have anything to instruct?”
“No, I was just curious and wanted to ask a few questions. Xiao Xi is filming with Feng Yan now, right?”
“Yes.” Shuangshuang thought that Dr. Feng just wanted to know about Yu Weixi’s daily life and health and didn’t think much of it.
“Then they… have a good relationship?”
“…?”
Feng Bai explained with a straight face, “I was just thinking that if the two of them have a good relationship, I can have the people around Xiao Xi take better care of him and not let him be so overworked.”
“Ah…! I see. Then Dr. Feng doesn’t have to worry at all!” Shuangshuang clapped her hands and said excitedly, “Yan-ge is so good to Xixi! He takes care of him every day, and even takes care of Niangao along with him. Xixi will also rarely listen to him.”
“Good.”
Feng Bai had a plan in his heart.
After a thrilling but safe day in the hospital, Feng Yan came to pick up Yu Weixi the next day.
Feng Yan was wearing a large black coat, sunglasses, and a gentleman’s hat, making the Yu Weixi in a white hoodie look a little small.
Yu Weixi had already packed up and was just waiting for Feng Yan and the production crew to pick him up.
“How is Xixi? Is he better now?” The moment Feng Yan stepped into the ward, he immediately went up and hugged Yu Weixi. “You scared me to death.”
“…Don’t be so greasy.” Yu Weixi was unexpectedly pulled into a warm embrace. He pushed Feng Yan away with disgust. “Old men are so greasy.”
“I couldn’t help it. I haven’t even said it yet. How are you? Is your body okay? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?”
Yu Weixi said coolly, “Of course I’m fine. But you’re dressed like you’re coming to my funeral.”
Feng Yan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“I haven’t even said anything about you yet. I heard from Shuangshuang that you were overworked. Did you secretly practice dancing again at night after I went back?”
Yu Weixi didn’t answer.
“…” Feng Yan already had the answer. He frowned. “Xixi.”
“I’ve always been like this. It’s not because I practiced dancing that I fainted this time. It’s just…”
It’s the system’s fault!
But Yu Weixi couldn’t say it, and he couldn’t help but feel a little depressed.
“Whether it is or not, you can’t be like this.” Feng Yan’s tone gradually became stern. “How many times have I told you? We’re rushing the schedule now. If you have time to rest, then rest. Don’t do strenuous exercise.”
“It’s none of your business.” Yu Weixi rolled his eyes.
“It is my business. Can’t I control you? Are you trying to make me move in and sleep with you?”
“…You dare?!” Yu Weixi’s eyes widened. “In the production team, in public, you dare to move in?!”
“If you dare to be disobedient and practice secretly, then I dare. How could I not dare? I can move in tonight.”
“You…!”
Yu Weixi’s face flushed with anger. He jumped and pounced on Feng Yan, pressing him down on the bed. “I’ll beat you to death!”
Feng Yan smiled, thinking that Yu Weixi was really becoming more and more casual with him.
Swoosh—
Feng Yan pressed his hand on the bed and, with a burst of strength, turned over and pressed Yu Weixi down on the bed. He said with a smile, “Who’s beating whom?”
“…” Yu Weixi bared his teeth. “You dare to hit me?”
Feng Yan said leisurely, “I dare.”
Yu Weixi: “???”
Is this a rebellion?
Feng Yan bent down, his lips gently touching Yu Weixi’s cheek, “beating” his face.
Yu Weixi: “…”
“You…!” Yu Weixi’s face immediately flushed red.
“Cough! Cough! Cough!”
Just as Yu Weixi was about to curse, he was startled by a series of low coughs.
Yu Weixi and Feng Yan’s movements froze. They turned their heads and saw Feng Yan’s father standing on the side, looking at the two of them with a blank expression.
At this moment, Yu Weixi was lying on the bed, his hair messy, his cheeks flushed, and his clothes disheveled. Feng Yan was hovering over him, and Yu Weixi’s hand was still on Feng Yan’s shoulder.
Ah.
The worst thing was the sudden silence in the air.
At this moment, Yu Weixi felt his heart stop. Feng Yan, who had unexpectedly seen his own father, also had his heart stop.
And the moment Feng Bai opened the door and saw the two of them hugging, to be honest, his old man’s heart also stopped.
In the end, it was Feng Yan who forced himself to be calm. He put away the teasing smile on his face, stood up with a blank expression, bowed, and nodded.
Polite, very polite.
Yu Weixi, with a red face of shame, also stood up and greeted in a low voice, “Feng, Dr. Feng…”
Feng Yan was taken aback.
Ah…?
Yu Weixi’s private doctor is… his father??
Feng Bai held his fist to his mouth and coughed, as steady as a mountain. “Mmm, I’ve brought Xiao Xi’s health report.”
“…Thank you.” Feng Yan went up and took it.
Feng Bai looked at Feng Yan and said coolly, “Take good care of Xiao Xi. Don’t let him be overworked. The time he spends dancing should be controlled, and his diet should be light. Also… if the filming work is very tiring during the day, not only should he not dance at night, but he should also not do any extra exercise. There’s plenty of time after the filming is over.”
Feng Yan: “…”
Yu Weixi: “…”
It’s not me, I didn’t!! You’re talking nonsense!!
Yu Weixi was at a loss for words.
“Okay…” Feng Yan rubbed his nose.
Feng Bai glanced at his own son and paused. “Come out. I have something to say to you.”
“Fine.” Feng Yan turned to Yu Weixi. “I’ll be right out.”
“Wait…!” Yu Weixi went up and blocked Feng Yan. “Dr. Feng, if, if you have anything to say, just say it to me.”
Yu Weixi only felt that something was not right. Was Dr. Feng going to report something to Feng Yan? Was he going to team up with Feng Yan to discuss how to control him in the future?! Was he going to confiscate the dancing mat he had brought to the production team?
“It’s okay. I’m just going to say a few words about family matters with my dad.” Feng Yan patted Yu Weixi’s shoulder.
Feng Bai also nodded.
Yu Weixi: “…”
Yu Weixi: “??????”
Yu Weixi’s eyes widened, and his voice trembled. “You, your dad??”
Huh???
Feng Yan raised an eyebrow. “You didn’t know?”
He had thought that since he had been his private doctor for several years, Yu Weixi should know?
Yu Weixi: “…”
Why would he know?!
“Ah… you didn’t know. Then let me introduce you here.” Feng Yan rubbed his nose and wrapped his arm around Yu Weixi’s shoulder. “This is my dad, Feng Bai. Dad, this is…”
Feng Bai: “…I know.”
Feng Yan: “Ah…”
The scene was awkward, very awkward.
“Let’s go.” Feng Yan and Feng Bai left the ward.
Yu Weixi: “…”
Should he be glad that Feng Yan’s father doesn’t know who Niangao’s father is? Yu Weixi thought.
No…
What’s there to be glad about!
The point is, Dr. Feng is Feng Yan’s father!!!
Woc!
This!! What kind of human suffering is this!
Why does fate have to do this to a little cutie like him?!
And on the other side, Feng Yan and Feng Bai stood on the balcony. Feng Yan looked at the man in the white coat with a serious expression and scratched his cheek. “That, Xixi and I are in love. We…”
“Be quiet. Don’t talk to me about that.” Feng Bai frowned. “I’ll just ask you a few questions.”
“…Please.” Feng Yan took an exam posture.
“First of all, I won’t object to you two being together. Xiao Xi is a good child, and I also like him very much. But…” Feng Bai frowned. “Do you know that he has given birth to a child?”
Feng Yan’s whole body stiffened.
Ah…?
What?
Before this, Feng Yan had thought of all sorts of possibilities. Maybe it was a friend’s child that was inconvenient to talk about, maybe it was an adoption, maybe it was something more sensitive like insemination.
It wasn’t that Feng Yan hadn’t thought of having a child by accident with someone, but he felt that it was unlikely. If that were the case, then why had he never seen any intimate or ambiguous person around Yu Weixi? And Yu Weixi also loved this child very much. It could be seen that the father was not a bad person.
Then…?
Feng Yan was a little dazed.
“Looking at you, I know you were completely unaware.” Feng Bai shook his head. “Niangao, Yu Jifeng, is the child he carried for ten months and gave birth to. This involves privacy. I originally didn’t want to tell outsiders, but you are my son, and you have already given him the jade bracelet. I guess you are serious, not just on a whim. So I think you must know this.”
“Of course it’s not a whim.” Feng Yan said firmly, “I’m never on a whim.”
“Good. So… do you know who the child’s other father is?”
Feng Yan: “…”
“Feng Yan, this matter must be clarified. I’m just worried that you two will be hurt.” Feng Bai frowned. “He had such a hard time back then, crying while giving birth. You have to make sure if he is still in contact with that man and if he still likes him. Otherwise, you will be hurt. Secondly, you also know Xiao Xi’s personality. You must be sure that you have the determination to raise a child properly before you can continue. Otherwise, you will be hurting Xiao Xi and also the child. Do you understand?”
After a pause, Feng Yan nodded. “I understand.”
Feng Yan said, “I will… handle it properly.”
He needed to… think about it properly.
