Chapter 62: Daddy and Little Daddy
Quiet, this damned quiet.
Yu Weixi looked at Feng Bai with some apprehension.
He… was afraid of being scolded.
Feng Bai asked seriously, “Who did you just say to call for a physical examination?”
“…Feng Yan.”
“…Which Feng Yan??”
“The Feng Yan you know…”
Feng Bai’s eyes widened, and he looked at Yu Weixi in disbelief.
Doubting life.
Really, doubting life.
“I, well, it’s like this.” Yu Weixi raised his hand and began to explain to his future father-in-law in a daze, “Four years ago, Feng Yan and I accidentally, well, did something wrong.”
Feng Bai looked at Yu Weixi with a blank expression.
Yu Weixi’s legs trembled.
Woc, what kind of human suffering is this!
Yu Weixi bit the bullet and said, “After that, I, I didn’t tell Feng Yan and ran away by myself. Feng Yan is not at fault. I was the one who didn’t want to say it and cause trouble for everyone. But the reason I didn’t say it was also that, I didn’t deliberately not say it, I just…”
“It’s okay.” Feng Bai smiled, but he reached out and ruffled Yu Weixi’s hair. “That little bastard, Feng Yan. You’ve been raising a child by yourself for four years. It’s been hard on you.”
“No, that, it’s not Feng Yan’s problem, it’s me…” Yu Weixi was in a flurry and didn’t know what to say.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Let’s not talk about this first. Let’s check Niangao’s body first.”
“Ah…!” The moment Niangao was mentioned, Yu Weixi immediately threw everything else to the back of his mind and stood up in a panic.
“I’ll call Feng Yan, no, I’ll have Niangao come in, I…”
“Xixi.” Feng Bai stood up and held Yu Weixi’s shoulders. “Don’t worry, there won’t be any major problems. Niangao comes to me for a physical examination every six months. It’s unreasonable for there to be a major problem that hasn’t been discovered, right?”
Yu Weixi was taken aback.
“Yes…” Yu Weixi nodded.
“It doesn’t matter if we call Feng Yan or not. He’s my son. I naturally have his data. He just had a physical examination last week.”
“Okay.”
Feng Bai took Niangao for a physical examination. Yu Weixi sat on a long bench outside the corridor, wringing his hands and waiting quietly.
“Xixi…!” Feng Yan had received Yu Weixi’s location information on WeChat. Although Yu Weixi hadn’t said anything, the moment Feng Yan saw that it was his father’s private hospital branch, he was immediately shocked. He didn’t care about anything and rushed over directly.
When Yu Weixi saw Feng Yan, he opened his mouth.
“Feng Yan…”
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
Yu Weixi stood up, his face pale. “Niangao… Niangao’s school physical examination report says he has cancer.”
Feng Yan paused, held Yu Weixi’s hand, and said, “It’s okay. We’ll wait for the results. Xixi, don’t be afraid.”
Yu Weixi was coaxed by Feng Yan’s gentle voice, and his eyes immediately turned red.
“Feng Yan, if, if something happens to Niangao, I really can’t accept it… I…”
Feng Yan was not a doctor, and he couldn’t change or say anything. He just silently held Yu Weixi’s hand and accompanied him.
“I had cancer before. Is it my fault… I almost died before. After filming The Coast, the doctor told me I only had a few months left. I’m like this. What about Niangao…” Yu Weixi was already a little incoherent.
“Xixi… you didn’t die. You’re still alive and well now.”
“That’s because… because of something unscientific. I was originally going to die. Dr. Feng said it would be hereditary… what should I do, Feng Yan, what should I do?”
Feng Yan suppressed the doubt in his heart and hugged Yu Weixi, gently patting his back.
“Xixi, let’s wait for the results first.”
Feng Yan held Yu Weixi’s hand and sat down. He took out a few fruit candies from his pocket and handed them to Yu Weixi.
“Here, eat this.”
Yu Weixi lowered his head. “I’m not a child.”
Feng Yan smiled, opened the wrapper himself, and brought a red strawberry-flavored candy to Yu Weixi’s mouth.
“Open your mouth, ah—”
Yu Weixi helplessly bit into it.
“Is it delicious?”
“It’s sweet.” Yu Weixi smacked his lips.
Feng Yan accompanied Yu Weixi, talking to him on and off. Yu Weixi had been subconsciously picking at his nails, almost to the point of injury. Only now did he slowly relax.
Niangao was really Yu Weixi’s biggest weakness. When it came to Niangao, Yu Weixi couldn’t think straight at all.
Feng Yan knew this about Yu Weixi, so even though he was worried, he didn’t show it.
After waiting for a while, he saw a nurse leading Niangao over.
Yu Weixi almost jumped up and strode forward, pouncing on Niangao.
Yu Weixi held Niangao’s hand and asked the nurse anxiously, “How is he?”
“Mr. Yu, don’t worry. The school took the wrong report. Dr. Feng is now contacting the school’s hospital to handle the matter of switching the reports.”
Yu Weixi’s legs almost went weak, and he completely relaxed.
That’s good…
Feng Yan also breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed Yu Weixi’s shoulders.
After a moment, Feng Bai came with the report.
Yu Weixi went up and took it, full of gratitude. “Thank you… thank you so much! I’m sorry, I suddenly came to you…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” That’s my own grandson, Feng Bai thought.
“Uncle Feng!” Niangao grinned at Feng Bai.
Feng Bai had always liked Niangao. Now that he knew he was his own little grandson, he was so happy he couldn’t be happier, wishing he could kiss little Niangao on the spot.
“Hey.” Feng Bai squatted down and hugged Niangao. “What uncle? Call me grandpa.”
“Huh?” Niangao blinked, a little confused.
Yu Weixi lowered his eyes. “…Mmm, listen to the doctor.”
Feng Yan: “????”
Huh??
Huh????
Did he miss something?
“Why…?” Feng Yan looked at Feng Bai with confusion.
Feng Bai: “…Hehe.”
This useless son. I get angry just looking at him.
Feng Yan: “?”
Feng Bai expressionlessly took the umbrella that Feng Yan had left on the chair.
Feng Yan: “???”
And then…
“Feng Yan, you scumbag!!”
“Our old Feng family doesn’t have a scumbag like you! I’ll break your dog legs today!”
Fuck?!
Yu Weixi’s eyes widened.
“No, that…”
“Feng Yan, don’t run!”
“No, at least tell me what’s going on first??”
“You still have the face to ask? You still have the face to ask?!”
By the time everyone had calmed down and were sitting in Feng Bai’s office, Feng Bai finally slammed the table fiercely at Feng Yan. “You’re quite something, aren’t you? You enjoyed yourself and didn’t take responsibility, letting someone else raise a child by themselves for four years! Your mother and I have missed out on four years with our little grandson. And we’ve been looking forward to you getting married and having children all this time.”
Feng Yan: “???”
Feng Yan’s ability to think went offline.
Woc… could it be…???
Feng Yan’s pupils shook. He turned to look at Yu Weixi.
“I’m sorry.” Yu Weixi turned his head away. “I didn’t tell you before.”
Feng Yan swallowed, his heart racing. “Tell me what…?”
Feng Bai couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted angrily, “You still have the face to ask! You have a four-year-old son and you don’t even know it. What kind of man are you?”
“Nian, Niangao…?” Feng Yan looked at Yu Weixi, his voice trembling a little.
“…Yes.” Yu Weixi had thought about telling Feng Yan, but he hadn’t expected it to be in such an awkward situation.
Yu Weixi was so ashamed he wanted to die, and even wanted to die on the spot.
“The person from four years ago… was you?” Feng Yan’s eyes widened.
He wasn’t wrong? He hadn’t guessed wrong?
“…Yes.”
Feng Yan was petrified on the spot.
“He’s really a scumbag.” Feng Bai was about to die of anger. After all, he was the doctor who had accompanied Yu Weixi during childbirth.
Not only was Feng Bai angry, but his mood was also very subtle at this moment.
Happy, surprised…
Fate is really fucking wonderful.
In one day, he had gotten a big grandson and a daughter-in-law.
“I… I didn’t know. If I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have just stood by…” Feng Yan stared at Yu Weixi blankly.
“Fine, you’re not a scumbag. You’re stupid.” Feng Bai bared his teeth. “How could I have such a son?”
“I… I…” Feng Yan looked at Yu Weixi with a dazed expression. “Can I hold Niangao?”
Yu Weixi helplessly pulled Niangao, who was already asleep on his shoulder, off and let Feng Yan take him.
Feng Yan had an expression of being hit by gold. He held Niangao and giggled at Yu Weixi.
“Niangao is really my son…!”
Originally, Feng Yan had already prepared himself to treat Niangao as his own son, regardless of whether he was his son or not. But he hadn’t expected that he was really his own son…!
Before, Feng Yan had had his doubts, but he was worried that he was overthinking things, that he had forcefully turned his ideal into reality.
Yu Weixi: “…”
Feng Bai said helplessly, “…He’s really stupid.”
At this moment, Feng Yan even wanted to wake Niangao up and have him call him Daddy.
“Xixi…!” Feng Yan was so excited that he directly reached out and pulled Yu Weixi into his arms, about to kiss him.
This silly Xixi!
“…Calm down.” Yu Weixi covered Feng Yan’s mouth with his hand.
Are you kidding me? Feng Bai is still here…!
“Xixi!” Feng Yan, a veteran, directly turned into a three-year-old Feng. He held Yu Weixi tightly, as if he wanted to merge him into his embrace.
Four years…
Yu Weixi has liked me for so many years, and he even secretly had their child.
Their, child.
His and Yu Weixi’s child…!
“Alright, alright. You two can be excited. I still have to continue my consultations.” Feng Bai looked at the two of them, also very helpless.
“Thank you, Dr. Feng.”
“Still calling me Dr. Feng?” Feng Bai smiled and looked at Yu Weixi.
The tips of Yu Weixi’s ears were a little red.
“I won’t tease you anymore. Let’s do it this weekend.”
Yu Weixi was taken aback.
What?
Feng Bai said to Feng Yan, “This weekend, after Xixi finishes filming his advertisement, bring him and Niangao home to formally meet us.”
“Okay.” Feng Yan nodded like a pecking chicken.
After leaving the hospital, the moment the two of them got in the car, Feng Yan couldn’t hold it in anymore. He pulled Yu Weixi’s collar and kissed him directly.
“Oof…!”
This beast…!
Yu Weixi’s eyes widened as he looked at Niangao, who was sleeping in the back seat, and silently hit Feng Yan.
…Niangao is still here!
However, Feng Yan kissed him even more fiercely, holding the back of Yu Weixi’s head and deepening the kiss.
“Xixi…”
After finally letting go, Feng Yan’s gaze was a little dark. “Xixi, you fool… how can you be so lovable?”
Yu Weixi didn’t speak.
“Xixi, I’m very happy, really.” Feng Yan held Yu Weixi’s hand. “From now on, I will definitely take good care of and protect you and Niangao. You are my responsibility and everything.”
Yu Weixi’s eyes were slightly red, and he said “Mmm.”
“Xixi… I’m sorry.” Feng Yan lowered his eyes with remorse. “I should have known earlier…”
Yu Weixi lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly.
“It’s not your fault either. I was the one who hid it and didn’t say anything.”
Four years ago was different from now. Four years ago, Feng Yan had not yet fallen in love with him. It was just his own wishful thinking and a drunken mistake one night. There was no need to say it out and make things difficult for him.
But now…
Yu Weixi looked at Feng Yan.
The man in front of him was affectionately saying that he cherished him.
“Xixi, shall we go back to the hotel?”
Yu Weixi smiled and said, “Okay.”
After returning to the hotel, Niangao woke up. The moment he woke up, he acted coquettishly and said he wanted to drink milk. After all, Yu Weixi had had a fever in the morning, and Niangao had only drunk a small carton of milk from a convenience store.
Yu Weixi went to the kitchen to make milk. Feng Yan sat on the sofa, held Niangao on his lap, and pinched his cheek, his eyes shining. “Niangao, call me Daddy.”
“Ah…?”
Niangao had just woken up and was still a little dazed. He didn’t quite understand why Yan-gege had become his daddy.
“From now on, I am your daddy. Xixi is your little daddy, and I am your daddy. Do you understand?”
“Ah…!” Niangao understood and said cautiously, “Is Yan-gege going to… marry Daddy?”
“Yes, we will get married in the future.”
…
Niangao stared at Feng Yan blankly.
After a moment, Niangao’s eyes widened and he said loudly, “I have two daddies?!”
“Yes, and I was originally your daddy.” Feng Yan pinched Niangao’s cheek. “Didn’t the teacher tell you? How can one person have a child? Right? It takes two people. I am your other daddy.”
“Daddy!” Niangao called out to Feng Yan softly, “Daddy, daddy!”
Niangao was so happy. Before, his classmates had all laughed at him for having only one daddy, of unknown origin.
But now he had two daddies, and it was the handsome and amazing Yan-gege!
Then from now on, Yan-gege would be his daddy!
Niangao hugged Feng Yan’s neck and nuzzled him coquettishly. “Daddy!”
Feng Yan’s heart was about to melt. He held the child and kissed and rubbed him.
The father and son were being all clingy and affectionate in the living room. Yu Weixi had just finished making milk in the kitchen, but he only felt a sharp pain in his waist, stabbing, as if someone were hitting his bone marrow.
Yu Weixi bit his lower lip and tried hard to endure it. He reached out and pressed his waist to adjust his breathing.
“Mmm…”
Yu Weixi closed his eyes, endured the pain, and summoned the system.
Yu Weixi: How long will this sharp pain last…!
System: This~ depends on the Host himself~ If there is a large intake of dark energy, then the punishment will not be triggered~
Yu Weixi frowned.
He had his principles. If he said no, then it was no. Now that he had a family, since he had already made up his mind not to actively cause trouble, then he would not go against it.
Then…
Yu Weixi asked, “Is there no other way?”
System: “There is. First, you can terminate the contract with the system and directly give up the dark energy mission. But this way, you will have to face the cancer without the system~ After all, you were originally a dying person.”
Yu Weixi frowned.
This was impossible. He had already done so much. How could he give up halfway?
What Yu Weixi wanted was to slowly complete the mission by relying on naturally obtained dark energy. But this way, he would have to face the punishment, such as this troublesome waist pain.
The waist pain affected his dancing. To Yu Weixi, not being able to dance was more painful than dying.
After all… that was the only thing he knew how to do, and also his sense of security.
System: “Ah, there is another way to avoid the waist pain, and the punishment that will be upgraded to pain in various parts of the body.”
“What is it?”
“You can use the things you’ve exchanged from the shop before to offset it~ Oh, to be precise, you have to give up one thing.”
Yu Weixi took a deep breath and asked, “What do you mean?”
“According to the data… you’ve exchanged for figure, stamina, and beauty from the shop before. Then, you just need to give up one thing to directly offset all the punishments!”
“…”
Stamina was impossible. If he had to give up his stamina, then he might as well just endure it like this.
Looks and figure… these two were external things.
But… they were what Yu Weixi relied on to survive.
If he got fat, he couldn’t dance, and his dancing wouldn’t be good-looking.
In that case, only looks were left.
But Yu Weixi felt that he didn’t have the courage to give up his looks, to directly disfigure himself.
Yu Weixi turned his head to look at the living room.
Yu Weixi: “Then if I terminate the contract with the system, how long can I live?”
System: “Let me calculate… you originally had three months to live. Plus the dark energy you’ve earned all these years, if you exchange it… oh, you have four years and three months!”
Yu Weixi was speechless.
Yu Weixi even morbidly began to think, would it be better to live for four years with all his beauty, glory, and talent in the best state, and then die?
“Xixi!” Feng Yan came to find him with Niangao.
“What’s wrong? Why did you take so long?”
“It’s nothing.” Yu Weixi shook his head.
Seeing that Niangao was smiling from ear to ear, Yu Weixi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “What are you talking about that’s so happy?”
Niangao was overjoyed and gestured with his hands and feet. “Daddy is talking to me about getting married! In the future, Daddy is going to marry little Daddy, and I’m going to be the flower boy!”
Yu Weixi was taken aback and looked at Feng Yan angrily, his ears red.
What are you talking about…!
“Daddy also said that in the future, two daddies will come to see me at my graduation ceremony!” Yu Weixi hadn’t gone to Niangao’s kindergarten graduation ceremony last year. Niangao had always hoped that his daddy could watch him perform and graduate.
Yu Weixi’s body stiffened, and he stared at Feng Yan blankly.
Feng Yan chuckled. “It’s all in the future, but it’s also good to talk about it now.”
Yu Weixi pursed his lips and lowered his eyes. “…Is that so?”
“That’s right. It’s happy to talk about it. The moment I think of our future, we still have such a long future to walk together.” Feng Yan held Niangao with one hand and Yu Weixi with the other.
“Not just getting married, but also Niangao’s elementary school graduation ceremony, middle school, university…” Feng Yan thought as he spoke, and the more he thought, the happier he became. The more he thought, the happier he became.
“…Mmm.”
Yu Weixi nodded. Not just his heart, but his whole body was warm.
Before, he had no home. But now, it seemed… it seemed he had a home.
Yu Weixi had made a decision in his heart.
It’s okay, he thought. If I get fat, I get fat. I can lose weight.
As long as I put in more effort than others, then it’s okay. I’ve always been like this.
The future is still long, after all.
