【Feng Jingche: Don’t say it.】
【Lu Zihang: Alright~ Then can I come to your place tonight?】
【Feng Jingche: What do you want?】
【Lu Zihang: To see my sister-in-law! She was in the class next to mine back then. Many of our classmates had crushes on her.】
Feng Jingche vaguely sensed the conversation was heading in a strange direction.
【Feng Jingche: You too?】
【Lu Zihang: Bro, I really envy you!】
【Feng Jingche: Abnormal love may be thrilling, but normal relationships are what you should pursue. That’s your sister-in-law – keep your thoughts appropriate! Or I’ll twist your head off.】
【Lu Zihang: Bro, I understand. I genuinely admire you – keeping it so secretive. No wonder you frequently go abroad – secretly visiting sister-in-law, right? And she’s already pregnant with your child! You’re something else!】
He didn’t want to continue this conversation.
Feng Jingche threw his phone on the table, leaned back in his chair with closed eyes, and pressed his fingers against his temples.
He knew Yu Xiyue was very popular.
Even though she had gone abroad right after graduating high school at eighteen.
Before eighteen, during adolescence, the innocent young boys and girls who saw her at school every day – so youthful and beautiful, accomplished in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, excellent in studies, sports, appearance, perfect in every way – couldn’t help but be captivated.
Like unintentionally planted willows growing into shade.
Without any deliberate flirtation on her part, the love-struck young boys naturally fell for her, developing secret crushes.
Knowing she had a childhood sweetheart, Gu Feiran, who was also exceptionally outstanding, they all quietly buried their feelings in their hearts.
Five years.
Five years had passed!
Who would have thought Yu Xiyue would return to the country with a pregnant belly?
Explosive!
After the welcome banquet that night, the entire Capital Circle was discussing Yu Xiyue’s pregnancy and her partner.
No one knew who Yu Xiyue’s partner was.
As the child’s stepfather, didn’t he have the right to know?
Meanwhile, after touring Feng Jingche’s villa, Yu Xiyue lazily curled up on the sofa reading a book. Her phone had been buzzing beside her several times before she finally picked it up.
【Gu Feiran: Yueyue, you pretended to be married and posted that moment just for me to see. Going through such elaborate deception – what’s the real reason?】
Ah…
Why would he think that?
Is this what the male lead is like?
【Gu Feiran: Yueyue, are you facing some difficulties?】
【Gu Feiran: Yueyue, let’s meet. I’ll come to your place to find you.】
In the original story, he went to find her like this too – after making An Wanwan angry, he’d go comfort An Wanwan again.
He’s really busy.
A master of time management.
While being attracted to An Wanwan’s stubborn independence and meticulous care, he also believed her family background made them the most compatible match.
What a scumbag!
Damn bastard.
【Yu Xiyue: You’re overthinking it. I’m at my husband’s place. I only showed you because you said you wanted to like it.】
Gu Feiran immediately sent a video call request.
Yu Xiyue hung up instantly.
She didn’t like answering calls, and she especially disliked video calls.
【Gu Feiran: You don’t dare answer the video, don’t dare let me see your husband. Is it because there’s no such person, or because you’re lying to me?】
【Yu Xiyue: Just assume I’m lying to you then. Do I have to say I don’t like you anymore, that I’ve long changed my heart, for you to let me go? Gu Feiran, we were never together in the first place. Why are you acting like this? It’s really degrading.】
Gu Feiran had very strong self-esteem.
In the original story, when someone cautiously suggested he might have fallen for An Wanwan, he vehemently denied it.
He yelled that he would never fall in love with An Wanwan no matter who he loved.
In the end, he was proven completely wrong.
He didn’t want others to look down on him, thinking he had chosen someone from an ordinary background far beneath their social circle, someone like An Wanwan who couldn’t fit into high society.
What an idiot.
Gu Feiran didn’t reply to her anymore, but Yu Qingsong secretly reported to her that Gu Feiran had gone to their home.
Yu Qingsong blocked him at the door and didn’t let him in.
【Fairy Sister: You did great.】
【Annoying Little Brother: Sis! Can I come see you? Miss you miss you miss you!】
【Annoying Little Brother: Sis, please…】
【Annoying Little Brother: ……】
Why not!
She was practically half the owner of Jinghu Manor now.
After she agreed, she could almost feel Yu Qingsong’s excitement through the screen, like a little wolf cub howling with joy.
Night fell.
It was already past working hours, but Feng Jingche still hadn’t returned.
In the dining room, Old Master Feng looked grim. “Let’s eat first, don’t wait for him.”
“Grandpa, he probably has business engagements. Please don’t get upset over such a small matter.” Yu Xiyue gently comforted the old master.
She wasn’t angry about Feng Jingche not coming home for dinner either.
She couldn’t care less whether he returned or not.
Even if he went to stay on a film set for two or three months right away, she wouldn’t mind.
Though it would mean less entertainment.
“You’re putting up with too much.”
“Grandpa, I’m not the one suffering. He’s the one who’s upset. It’s good for him to go out and vent his frustrations.” Yu Xiyue smiled gently and spoke appropriately.
Old Master Feng felt even more apologetic and had someone call Feng Jingche again.
Yu Qingsong happily kept his sister company during dinner.
While silently giving Feng Jingche negative points.
He had never agreed with his sister marrying Feng Jingche in the first place, and now he disagreed even more.
They finished their meal, and Feng Jingche still hadn’t returned.
The siblings went upstairs, where Yu Qingsong went to the music room to play piano for Prenatal Education for the baby in his sister’s womb.
After playing several pieces, his burning curiosity got the better of him. “Sis, are you having a mixed-race baby?”
“No.”
“Then what does he look like? Show me a photo! The person might be gone, but there must be photos! Show me, show me.” Yu Qingsong grabbed her arm, whining. “Please, please, please”
“Sis~~”
Feng Jingche’s photos were everywhere on the streets.
But that night he was wearing a mask, so she hadn’t known it was Feng Jingche!
She only found out the next day.
Even if she had seen his face, she wouldn’t have known Feng Jingche was a big celebrity.
“Why are you so curious?”
“Only by knowing what the baby’s father looks like can I imagine what my little nephew will look like when he’s born. If you won’t tell me…” Yu Qingsong lowered his gaze, staring at her pregnant belly. “Baby, I’m your handsome uncle! Your dear mommy won’t tell uncle who your daddy is, uncle knows nothing, so pitiful…”
“Don’t worry, the baby’s father is extremely handsome. Our baby won’t be ugly.” Yu Xiyue patted him lightly. “Keep playing, the baby loves listening to uncle play piano.”
“Really?”
Yu Qingsong’s eyes lit up.
“Then I’ll play for the baby every day! I’m going to stay here!”
Before Yu Xiyue could respond, the sound of a car came from downstairs.
The siblings exchanged a knowing look – Feng Jingche must have returned.
“Never mind him, keep playing.”
Yu Qingsong obediently went back to playing the piano.
Downstairs, Old Master Feng stared at Feng Jingche striding in briskly and hurled the cane in his hand toward him.
The Old Master clutched his chest and roared, “Feng Jingche! What are you doing? Look at what you’ve become! What happened to your hair?”
