The Long Aotian Cub Becomes the Pampered Darling of a Wealthy Family 39

Chapter 39

Night fell, and a small villa was quietly enveloped in the cool, water-like night.

The crystal chandelier hanging in the villa’s living room illuminated every corner, making it bright and splendid.

Amidst Shen Jinfeng’s unabashed laughter, Shen Tiantian was lifted by the scruff of his neck, the lifeline of his fate, by the sneering Shen Yuanchuan.

Shen Tiantian shrank his little head, his hands and feet bound, and giggled obediently.

“Daddy, you’re back?”

Tiantian’s voice instantly softened, like a soft little cloud, gently floating into one’s heart.

Unfortunately, Shen Yuanchuan had already seen through this little bad cub’s tricks.

Shen Yuanchuan let out a soft scoff, reached out his finger, and poked the little one’s head hard.

“What, you don’t even recognize your daddy after just a few days?”

Shen Tiantian nodded his little head vigorously. “I do, I do.”

Shen Jinfeng, on the side, fanned the flames, enjoying the show.

“Dad, of course Tiantian recognizes you. He just thought you had ridden a crane to the west and was waiting to inherit your company.”

Shen Tiantian didn’t understand the four-character idiom Shen Jinfeng had used. He tilted his little head and even nodded foolishly.

“That’s right, that’s right. Daddy flew away on a white crane.”

He even thought he was being clever and pointed at Shen Jinfeng.

“It’s big brother who wants to inherit the company, not me. I love Daddy very much and can’t bear to part with him.”

As Shen Tiantian spoke, he even had to rub his soft little face against his daddy’s to prove that he was telling the truth.

Shen Yuanchuan stood there in silence for a while, wanting to say something, but facing this little cub who couldn’t understand human language, he felt very helpless.

In the end, he could only pat Shen Tiantian’s head and sigh.

“Just be honest. You’re foolish to the core.”

Shen Jinfeng, on the side, was laughing very happily, his beautiful peach blossom eyes sparkling like a lake, shimmering with light.

“Oh my, Tiantian is so much fun.”

Shen Yuanchuan glared at Shen Jinfeng, his eyes filled with a warning, telling him not to trick his little brother.

Shen Jinfeng’s expression became restrained, but in reality, he didn’t care at all.

After being lectured by his daddy, Shen Tiantian was finally put down.

He quickly trotted over to the sofa on his short little legs, hugged his potato chips, and started to watch the variety show without blinking.

It was as if the conversation with Shen Yuanchuan just now was just a little free time he had squeezed out of his busy schedule.

For a moment, Shen Yuanchuan inexplicably felt as if he had been given the cold shoulder.

He frowned and shook his head, shaking the absurd thought out of his mind.

He didn’t have much to do tonight, so Shen Yuanchuan simply sat down and watched his little son’s variety show debut with him.

The official episode of the variety show began with a short interview. However, Shen Tiantian’s group had been a last-minute addition, so the interview had already ended, and they hadn’t had time to record a make-up one.

After that was the nearly two-hour official episode, which included not only the exciting clips from each family’s live stream but also the game segment recorded in the studio two days ago.

The content was very compact. Each family’s screen time was only about twenty-something minutes.

For Shen Yuanchuan, seeing his several sons on TV was a very strange feeling.

His little son was as lively and cheerful as a little sparrow on camera, and his interactions with his two older brothers were also particularly intimate and interesting.

It was the first time he had discovered that Shen Jinfeng liked to tease his little brother so much, the two of them always bickering like enemies. He also hadn’t expected Shen Xiuze to have such a gentle and considerate side, completely different from his usual cold demeanor.

Shen Yuanchuan’s heart trembled violently for a few moments.

Out of the corner of his eye, Shen Yuanchuan saw Shen Jinfeng secretly taking Shen Tiantian’s potato chips.

Shen Tiantian was completely engrossed in the variety show and didn’t even notice that his potato chips were all gone. He grabbed for them several times with his small hand but only got air.

His mouth was still chewing instinctively, chewing on nothing.

When he realized something was wrong, Shen Tiantian looked at his empty potato chip bag, his expression shocked, as if the sky had fallen.

He didn’t even have to think to know who had done it.

Shen Tiantian let out a roar and pounced over to kick his bad-guy brother with his little feet.

And Shen Jinfeng seemed to be used to being kicked. He quickly retreated and was finally pushed down onto the sofa by Shen Tiantian.

Shen Tiantian was extremely wronged and pounded his bad-guy brother with his little fists.

Shen Jinfeng blocked the attack with his arm, but his mouth was still being cheeky, teasing him incessantly:

“What’s wrong with me eating a couple of your potato chips? You didn’t even notice. How can you blame me?”

Shen Tiantian’s little eye sockets were red with anger. He puffed out his baby-fat cheeks and transformed into a little hedgehog on the spot, so angry that his hair stood on end.

“Big brother is so annoying!”

Shen Tiantian clenched his little fists, stood under the sofa, and said angrily:

“In the future, when I inherit the company, I’ll make you sell a lot of milk candies and not give you any little buns to eat!”

Before, the kind-hearted little boss was still willing to share two little buns with his bad brother.

But now, even the two little buns were gone!

Shen Jinfeng laughed out loud, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes. He collapsed on the sofa and shouted:

“Then what should I do? If I don’t have any buns to eat, I’ll starve to death.”

A hint of small triumph appeared on the little boss’s puffed-up little face. He huffed twice, put his hands on his hips, and said:

“If you compensate me for the potato chips, I’ll give you one bun.”

Shen Jinfeng laughed and shouted, “Then thank you so much, little black-hearted boss.”

The corners of Shen Tiantian’s mouth lifted. Knowing that his brother was scared, he waved his small hand.

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome.”

With that, he held out his small hand and asked his brother for something.

“Give me the potato chips.”

Shen Jinfeng knew that he had to coax the hot-tempered little cub and negotiated with him:

“Tomorrow. It’s too late today. I’ll compensate you with a whole bag of potato chips tomorrow.”

This time, Shen Tiantian was satisfied. He lifted his chubby little chin, like a little general returning from a victory, and sat back down on his small sofa.

Tiantian happily swung his little feet a couple of times and continued to watch the variety show.

Shen Yuanchuan sat to the side, watching the interaction between his little son and his brother. He should have been very pleased.

Before, he had always felt that Shen Jinfeng and Shen Xiuze were too independent and didn’t care about their brotherly bond at all, acting like strangers when they met.

But at this moment, with Shen Jinfeng and Shen Tiantian being so close, Shen Yuanchuan felt a little jealous.

He, the old father, was sitting on the sofa, as if he had been isolated.

Shen Yuanchuan couldn’t figure it out. Hadn’t he just been away from home for a short week?

How did it seem as if the family had removed him from the list?

He still had some simple work to do tonight, but Shen Yuanchuan was not in the mood anymore. He frowned with a cold face and went upstairs to change his clothes.

The two-hour variety show finally ended.

Shen Tiantian let out a long sigh, his eyes like a sea of stars, sparkling with a brilliant light.

He was different now.

The current Tiantian was a little star Tiantian who had been on TV!

After watching the variety show, Shen Jinfeng picked up the tablet, helped Shen Tiantian log into his Weibo account, reposted the program’s official promotional post, and then browsed through the related comments online.

There were not many negative comments. Most of them were praising the variety show’s effect.

Since Shen Jinfeng had increased his investment in this variety show, he had also taken the lead in cooperating with a video website he had invested in.

Although the popularity and promotion were still not as high as the competing travel-with-kids variety show, the traffic for the first broadcast was very good.

The top-rated comment was actually about Shen Tiantian.

[Aww, aww, aww! Tiantian is so cute! Can I be your sister-in-law, Tiantian?]

Shen Jinfeng frowned. What kind of nonsense is this?

At this time, Shen Tiantian also came over, squeezed his little head in from under Shen Jinfeng’s arm, and revealed a pair of bright, round, and large eyes, full of anticipation.

“Big brother, what are you looking at?”

Shen Jinfeng looked at the little one who couldn’t read pretending to be obedient and couldn’t help but laugh.

“I’m looking at the comments and reviews of the variety show.”

Shen Tiantian said “oh,” blinked his little eyes, propped up his little face, and asked with feigned curiosity:

“Then are there any praises for me?”

Shen Jinfeng knew that the little one was going to ask this.

He pondered for a moment and deliberately didn’t answer.

Tiantian was so anxious that he pulled on Shen Jinfeng’s arm, looked up with his little head, and was just short of reaching out to pull his brother’s mouth open to make him speak.

For the sake of his own mouth, Shen Jinfeng quickly said:

“Yes, there are quite a few praises for you. Are you satisfied?”

The corners of Shen Tiantian’s mouth lifted. Then, feeling that he was already a little star and had to pay attention to his image, he tried his best to pull his mouth straight.

But his eyes were still sparkling, and the smile couldn’t be hidden and secretly escaped.

“Hehe.”

Shen Tiantian wanted his brother to read him a couple of praise comments, but he was too embarrassed, afraid of being teased by his brother.

With a red little face, Shen Tiantian was reluctant to leave. He stared at the incomprehensible tablet and followed Shen Jinfeng in looking at it.

Shen Jinfeng browsed through it and found that some of the fans’ comments were really scary.

[I’m open to being adjusted! I’m not picky between the big brother and the second brother, slurp, slurp.]

[Hahaha, just two sticks!]

Are they crazy? Shen Jinfeng thought.

What is this stuff?

He turned off the tablet, completely bewildered, picked up the little one beside him, and led him upstairs to bed.

Shen Tiantian had nothing to look at anymore and could only kick his little short legs in the air, unhappily hugging his brother’s neck and sighing.

After washing up, Shen Tiantian, wearing his fluffy pajamas, stood in front of the mirror and carefully applied baby cream.

After spreading the baby cream evenly on his little face, Shen Tiantian made sure that he smelled fragrant and then jumped down from the stool in satisfaction.

He didn’t go to sleep directly but turned to the bedroom next door.

Shen Yuanchuan, next door, was not asleep yet. He was lying in bed, browsing the current news on his phone.

The door was pushed open. Shen Yuanchuan’s eyelids lifted. Seeing that it was his little son, he looked away again.

Although Shen Yuanchuan’s gaze had long since moved away from the news on his phone, and the corners of his mouth were uncontrollably lifted, he still asked coolly:

“It’s so late. Why is Tiantian still not asleep?”

Shen Tiantian lay on the side of the bed, kicked his short little legs, and tried his best to climb up from the floor.

Shen Yuanchuan’s bed was a two-meter-wide bed, and it was much higher than Shen Tiantian’s small bed.

Shen Tiantian stuck his bottom in the air and climbed for a long time, his forehead covered in sweat.

In the end, Shen Yuanchuan couldn’t bear to watch anymore. He reached out and pulled the little one’s hood, and only then did he pull Shen Tiantian up.

Of course, the fluffy hood was also pulled into a wrinkled mess.

Tiantian used his hands and feet, and with a couple of swooshes, he climbed to his daddy’s side, fell onto his stomach, and let out a long sigh.
