Synopsis: As 2023 began, rumors of Kwon Jiyong's romantic life continued to circulate among media and fans, merely speculative as he had never admitted to any relationship. What can you do? Sin...
Chapter 11: They had the illusion that they had never been apart
Kwon Ji-yong has no intention of deleting this post, and the comments from fans below are still in a variety of languages, with a lot of Chinese mixed with Korean and English.
As for why there are so many Chinese characters in this comment?
Don't ask, even if you ask, he won't understand.
In the past, if he wanted to understand the meaning of messages from international fans, without the help of a translator, he would usually only read the ones he could understand, short Japanese and English messages.
The same goes for liking. If you can understand the picture, just like giving a thumbs up, and then follow the next one. After all, many times you can understand the general meaning just by looking at the picture.
The father and daughter stared at the mobile phone on the table, their eyes almost popping out, especially Xiao Taotao.
This point has seriously exceeded her healthy sleep time. If her father hadn't said that she could hear her mother's voice, she would have been so sleepy that she would have fallen asleep. Anyway, it's almost time now. The child is holding her face with both hands and dragging her little chin. It's so cute~
Before, Kwon Ji-yong would definitely take out his cell phone and take pictures of his daughter.
The child has only been here for two days, but his phone album already contains many daily photos of the cute baby. He finally understands why his friends who have children, regardless of gender, become obsessed with showing off their babies.
Yong Pei’s smurf account is all about his little brat’s daily life.
If it were possible that Kwon Ji-yong couldn't show off, he would have flooded his fans' homepage with pictures of baby girls. Others have "cute babies in the eyes of their parents", but his daughter is really beautiful, with a face that shows she has the qualifications to be a child star since she was young.
"Dad, will Mommy really call you?"
Xiao Taotao had a very suspicious look in her eyes, and her eyelids were drooping from sleepiness. When she spoke to him, her eyes were almost completely closed.
Oh my god! The child, who had only been here for two days, felt that the biggest difference between this father and his previous fathers was that he was unreliable.
What does the current dad and the current mom mean, the previous dad and the previous mom? The cognitive ability of a three-year-old child is not as complicated as what adults think, so don’t expect them to understand the meaning.
They are just looking at things according to the discernment of their current age. For example, Xiao Taotao's way of distinguishing different fathers is to see how Quan Zhilong is different from before.
Quan Zhilong likes to play the question-and-answer game with her.
Kwon Ji-yong always asks her about mommy issues.
Quan Zhilong, who was not very good at cooking to begin with, now has a 90% chance of becoming the one whose cooking is terrible.
Quan Zhilong is still stuck on the fried egg menu.
..........
It must be my dad now.
The child doesn't understand why his father has changed, and when he will become the same father he used to be, but the only good thing is...
Xiao Taotao found out that she doesn’t have to go to kindergarten these days.
This child has perfectly inherited his parents' habit of staying in bed when they were young. This is the agent's biggest headache. After they got married and had children, it boomeranged back on the child.
Once you become a parent, you have to set a good example.
When winter comes, it becomes difficult to get up. The father and daughter belong to the same camp, but in the past, Quan Zhilong had to send her to kindergarten. Song Yu went back to China on a business trip, and the child's mother went to work. At that time, Quan Zhilong would not spoil Xiao Taotao. He would coax and deceive her, feed the child breakfast, and send the child to school.
Xiao Taotao didn't know whether the mommy on the phone had become different from before, just like her daddy.
Just when Quan Zhilong couldn't hold back any longer and called the other party again, the phone in front of him rang. The number on it was the number Song Yu had called just now.
Excited, Quan Zhilong immediately picked up the phone, but the finger on the answer button was slow to release.
"Dad, is it Mommy calling?"
Why didn’t you answer again?
Quan Zhilong calmed himself down and scratched the connect button with his index fingernail. The scratch was as rough as if it had been bitten by a dog. It was his masterpiece from the past few days.
.
"Hello... Quan Zhilongxi?"
Song Yu's voice came, the same greeting the man had used when he called before, with honorifics and an especially polite tone. It had been eight years since they broke up, and in fact, this was the first time they had spoken since the breakup.
No different from strangers, except that we once intersected and entangled with each other.
It could be heard that after the person on the other end confirmed that he was the real person, he didn't know what to say in the opening remarks of the greeting.
Quan Zhilong sighed. He had experience with this. When the child crawled out of his bed and threw himself into his arms, blinking his big eyes and calling him dad, Quan Zhilong was also confused. If he hadn't remembered the dream clearly after waking up, Xiao Taotao's face looked exactly like the girl in the dream.
He thought it was a prank by his friends, or...a ghost.
But the undeniable paternity test results, something that could not be explained by science, were finally proven by scientific means to be his son.
As for Yuna on the phone, we have to wait until she comes to Korea and does a paternity test like him to fully confirm it.
To be honest, he didn't know what to do next.
"Do you want to hear her voice?"
As soon as little Taotao arrived, she started crying for her mommy. The child, who was originally so sleepy that her eyelids were fighting each other, suddenly started up and her eyes widened. In the silent room, even without the hands-free function turned on, she could still hear some of the sound.
The way he pricks up his ears and listens carefully is so cute~
Quan Zhilong, who is always gentle in front of children, is even more unprincipled when facing his own daughter.
The child almost climbed up and put his face close to his, trying to hear his mother's voice, but the little movements he made were full of a secret sense of humor.
Oh my god~ How can it be so cute! Quan Zhilong smiled with his little white teeth showing, and grabbed the little guy with a funny look.
The main thing is that I’m afraid that after she climbs onto the table, she won’t be able to stand steadily and will fall down from too high, which would be terrible.
With a strong hug, he embraced the small body, holding the child in one hand. The two moved to the sofa, sat down, and sank deeply into the softness of the sofa, still keeping the posture of holding the child.
Quan Zhilong didn't wait for the person on the other end to reply, and directly turned on the hands-free mode of the phone, and let Xiao Taotao hold the phone with both hands.
"Mommy~~~~"
The child's voice was full of sweetness and joy, like spring honey, melting in the air.
After Song Yu heard Quan Zhilong ask her, she actually couldn't react. Who was the "she" he was talking about? She heard the sound of footsteps coming from the other side. A few seconds later, a child's voice with a trembling voice echoed in her ears.
"Mommy, where are you? Taotao misses you~!"
Her voice was soft and full of baby tones. Every word seemed to be wrapped in marshmallows, making people feel warm inside. Her tone was full of attachment and longing for her mother, just like the little bird calling for the mother bird to return to the nest.
It makes people want to fly to her immediately and give her a big hug.
This must be the three-year-old girl that Quan Zhilong mentioned in the text message, but she wasn't prepared! In fact, the whole thing had only been going on since she found out...less than an hour!
Faced with the child's joyful shouts, Song Yu could not say anything in rebuttal, even if she could not figure it out. Adults always subconsciously cooperate in front of children, even if they are not their own children, and cannot bear to destroy the child's innocence.
Whenever Song Yu met these children in the past, his voice would become hoarse.
But at this moment...she felt that the voice in her throat was stuck and she couldn't speak.
"I...miss you too."
I can only say this with difficulty.
Then, as if finding his voice again, Song Yu mechanically said, "Little... Taotao, right? Can you give the phone to Daddy?"
She really wanted to confirm with Quan Zhilong what was going on. The missing jade pendant at home went to Korea, and a daughter appeared for no reason. He also said that she was also responsible because... she might be the child's biological mother.
Every word is so...fantastical.
“Oh~”
Reluctantly, he handed the phone back to Quan Zhilong and switched it back to receiver mode.
snort!
After hearing Song Yu's voice, the child, who was like a chicken with its blood pumped up, expressed her unhappiness that her mommy was going to tell her dad the little secret that she couldn't hear.
With a jump, she pressed herself closer to Quan Zhilong's chest, and her furry little head kept nodding against his neck, just to find a good position, closer to the phone, as if she wanted to listen with her ears perked up.
The man, frustrated by his daughter's pushover, could only simply ask the person on the phone, "Can you come to Korea when you have time?"
It’s hard to explain over the phone, meeting in person is his goal.
In fact, when he was alone, he also felt that he couldn't handle this child. Even a well-behaved baby girl had the potential to become a naughty child.
"Well... I have an event in Korea the day after tomorrow, so I'll wait until..."
"Tonight! I'll contact you again?"
The brand event only lasted one day, and they had originally planned to return the next morning. Song Yu thought that if her sister-in-law was still there, she could stay and make appointments with her for a few days, or make appointments with her cousins on her mother's side, but it seemed...
It is certain that I will stay in Korea for a few days, but I am afraid I won’t be able to make appointments with anyone.
Song Yu admitted that at this time he was more concerned about stabilizing the other party.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, let’s wait until she arrives in Korea!
Let’s talk about it after we finish participating in the event!
Her life plan was about to be broken...
Oh no, it was smashed.
"Okay, let's do it that night..."
Before Quan Zhilong could finish his words, Xiao Taotao refused to listen as if she had anticipated that her father was going to hang up the phone with her mother.
"Ahhhhh~~Daddy, give it to me, I want to talk to Mommy~"
The skill of crying is an innate skill of every child. Once they open their mouths, a howl of wailing comes out at any time. Quan Zhilong quickly turned on the speakerphone again and said, "Okay, okay, I'll give it to you. Don't cry, don't cry!" like those doting parents who immediately give their children toys when comforting them.
The person talking to her was Xiao Taotao again.
For the next few minutes, Song Yu felt the phone burning her ear. This kid... wouldn't hang up! It was easy to imagine how expensive this international call must have been.
But listening to the child's chatter, Song Yu found it quite interesting. His words were all complaints about his father Quan Zhilong.
"Dad, the cooking is terrible."
She complained that he always burnt the eggs when he fried them, but after removing the black burnt edges, she actually told her that they were edible.
Song Yu recalled the man in her memory.
Indeed! Quan Zhilong can't cook. When he tasted the dishes he made on the show, he was in pain in front of the camera. She privately complained, "Is Oppa going to poison himself first?"
"Dad, stay in bed..."
Hey~ Let's not blame each other for this. The father and daughter are lazy in bed and afraid of the cold. When they get up, it's almost noon, so they order takeout or go out to eat. After just a few meals, little Taotao is unhappy.
The child was talking, and Quan Zhilong would refute him if he didn't agree. Song Yu listened to them on the phone and was amused from time to time. After hearing her laughter, Quan Zhilong used a wronged tone and hummed, "You can't blame me~"
Whoever takes care of this child will know!
This was clearly their first contact after eight years, but because of the unexpected child, the unfamiliarity between the two adults and the politeness in the opening remarks of the phone call magically disappeared.
There was the illusion that they had not been apart for all these years.
.
Out of nowhere, she felt as if she was being detached from time and space. There was a "Song Yu" hovering beside her, calmly watching her talking on the phone.
One of them was smiling brightly as he listened to the father and daughter quarreling, while the other watched the scene with cold eyes...
They all look like her, and the woman listening to the phone is also her.
But Song Yu felt that...the person who was watching coldly was her.
The smile on her lips at this moment was too strange and shouldn't appear on her.
The incredibly natural conversation between the family of three feels like a story that happened in a different time and space. They didn't break up that year, nor did they have any estrangement due to their career development. The couple eventually walked into the palace of marriage and had the fruit of their love...
They were such a happy family.
The child kept asking, "Mommy, when will you be back~"
The child's father also asked about her return date.
