Chapter 123 Baby, are you going back on your word?



"Yan Yan, your dad and I will come pick you up in a couple of days." Song Shuman hugged her youngest son with reluctance.

Then she hugged her best friend Yu Qingtong, and secretly boasted, "How about it, aren't you envious of my well-behaved son?"

Yu Qingtong smiled and said, "We're practically family, your son is my son, why are you being so formal?"

An Qingyan had no idea what his mother and aunt were whispering about. He watched Song Shuman get into the car, then obediently waved goodbye to his mother, saying, "Goodbye, Mom. Remember to send me a message when you get home."

"Alright, my good son, remember to pack your luggage these next couple of days," Song Shuman said, still worried about him, before leaving.

"Yes, I know."

An Qingyan has already agreed and will go home in a couple of days.

His arm was healed, so there seemed to be no reason for him to stay at the Gu family's house any longer.

The two stood at the door watching the car drive away before turning back. Yu Qingtong sighed with emotion, took the boy's hand, and said, "Yan Yan, Auntie really doesn't want you to go home."

She truly envied Schumann for having such an obedient and well-behaved son.

Unlike her son, Gu Fei, who was alright as a child, fair-skinned, adorable, and cute like a porcelain doll, crying, laughing, and making a fuss. But as he grew older, he became distant from everyone, his stern and unsmiling demeanor making him seem like a retired old cadre. (Remember https://m.)

"Auntie, actually I'll miss you and Brother Fei too." An Qingyan touched the tip of her nose a little guiltily and said obediently, "I'll come back to see you often in the future."

Yu Qingtong suddenly stopped and happily suggested, "How about this, Auntie will adopt you as her godson?"

She looked at the boy in front of her expectantly, "Look how good you and Gu Fei are. If you recognize me as your godmother, Gu Fei will be your godbrother. Wouldn't it be great to have an older brother who will dote on you?"

An Qingyan's lips twitched, "..."

This! Absolutely! Not! Possibly!

He didn't want to be Gu Fei's adopted younger brother; that was too strange!

An Qingyan touched the back of her neck, looking bewildered. She forced a smile, then looked away guiltily, her whole body radiating unease and discomfort.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Even if he agreed, Gu Fei would not agree.

The boy's reaction was so obvious that Yu Qingtong naturally noticed his predicament. She immediately felt a little sad, and her tone became somewhat disappointed, "What's wrong? Yan Yan, don't you want to?"

"No, no!" An Qingyan nodded and shook her head, her heart filled with conflict. Finally, she gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and said in a slow and gentle voice, "Auntie, actually... actually there's something I've always wanted to tell you."

"What?"

"You... let's go inside and talk first,"

A few minutes later, the two sat diagonally opposite each other on the sofa in the living room. Yu Qingtong noticed that the boy looked obviously nervous, so she thoughtfully poured him a glass of water.

At the same time, she was also puzzled as to what was so difficult to talk about.

"Thank you, Auntie." With a trembling hand and an excited heart, An Qingyan took the warm water and drank a sip. Then, she nervously clasped her hands together, opened her mouth, and very considerately reminded her, "Auntie, please prepare yourself mentally."

Yu Qingtong was both amused and exasperated. "It's alright, Auntie is very strong-willed. Just tell me."

Although he readily agreed to tell Gu Fei about their relationship with his aunt last night, he was now more nervous than when he had been intimate with Gu Fei last night.

"Auntie, actually..."

"Actually, there's something that Fei Ge and I haven't told you yet."

What's the matter?

Yu Qingtong boldly guessed, "Don't tell her that Gu Fei was actually switched at birth, and that her biological son is someone else."

"Actually, actually..." An Qingyan was naturally unaware of the other person's inner thoughts. He was so nervous that his face turned red. After stammering for a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to say, "Actually, Fei Ge and I have been dating for a long time. We are a couple!"

"So...so, I can't accept you as my godmother!"

...

Yu Qingtong: "???!"

She seemed not to have reacted, completely petrified, staring blankly at An Qingyan, blinking in bewilderment, without saying a word, but her inner monologue was quite rich.

What's going on?

Are Yan Yan and Gu Fei dating? Are they a couple?

Couple? Relationship?

Huh? Such a good thing actually happened?!

"I'm...I'm so sorry, Auntie!" An Qingyan stood up awkwardly, put his hands behind his back, and bowed very sincerely to Yu Qingtong. "Auntie, it's all my fault. Please don't blame Gu Fei. I was the one who liked him first!"

He assumed the other person was acting this way because they couldn't accept it, so in his panic, he hurriedly and incoherently explained, "I'm sorry, I know this is...unacceptable to you."

"You can hit me or scold me all you want, I deserve it all, but could you please not make things difficult for Gu Fei?"

Yu Qingtong: "???!"

When did she ever say she wouldn't accept or agree to it?

...

At 4:30 p.m., after finishing a meeting and declining a client's invitation to dinner, Gu Fei drove straight home, his mind still preoccupied with An Qingyan.

A faint smile played on the man's usually indifferent face, and he seemed quite relaxed and happy. However, just as he stepped into the house and bent down to change his shoes, his mother, Ms. Yu Qingtong, hurriedly came over.

"You brat, what have you been doing behind my back!" Yu Qingtong angrily slapped Gu Fei's shoulder and scolded him, "You did such a heinous thing without saying a word!"

"You didn't tell me about something this big! If Yan Yan hadn't told me, how long were you going to keep it from me?!"

"Furthermore, since you and Yan Yan are already together, why did you go on a blind date with that Miss Su? How could you do this to Yan Yan? Gu Fei, you'd better explain yourself clearly!"

"How am I going to explain this to Shuman? She treated me like a best friend, but my son kidnapped her precious youngest son whom she had finally found!"

"You pig ruined such a perfectly good cabbage?"

"How can I ever face her again?!"

"..." Gu Fei did not resist, letting Ms. Yu Qingtong unleash a barrage of blows on his shoulder. He calmly changed his shoes, and only after changing them did he stand up straight.

It was obvious that the child had told Ms. Yu about their relationship, and his mood had improved somewhat; a hint of pleasure flickered in his eyes, but his voice remained indifferent.

"Mom, you haven't had time to stop smiling yet."

"Your acting is terrible."

Yu Qingtong: "Really?"

"Auntie, please don't scold him!" An Qingyan, who had faintly heard Yu Qingtong cursing from upstairs, rushed over and looked at the man with concern. "Brother Fei, are you alright?"

"My shoulder hurts a little from being hit," Gu Fei said, frowning slightly to indicate his discomfort.

Yu Qingtong: "..."

She didn't even use any force, okay? How could it hurt? Wearing so many clothes in the dead of winter, how could it hurt? When did her son become so scheming!

But An Qingyan actually believed Gu Fei's words and was visibly distressed. "How is it? Let me see."

"It's nothing, I was just kidding." As he spoke, the man reached out and ruffled the boy's hair, a gentle smile with a hint of doting affection playing on his lips.

"..." Yu Qingtong's lips twitched. She felt like an extra, oversized light bulb standing here. Was this still her stern, expressionless son?

This brat was hiding his true feelings from her before, but now he's all high and mighty, huh? He's showing off his love right in front of her, isn't he?

When Yu Qingtong learned about this not long ago, she was indeed very surprised. She was shocked when she found out that Gu Fei and An Qingyan had been dating for more than two months.

Her son is a man of few words but big deeds; he acted so quickly.

Shocked as she was, Yu Qingtong did not object to the matter. She was already open-minded, and after spending some time abroad, her mind became even more open.

Gu Fei was just grateful to have found a partner. She didn't care whether the person was male or female; at least she would have someone to keep her company. What's more, this partner was Yan Yan, whom she liked very much.

Yan Yan is so well-behaved, sensible and obedient. Since she can't be my godson, being her daughter-in-law would be great too.

I wonder if Schumann will break off their friendship after he finds out about this.

...

None of the things An Qingyan had anticipated happened. There was no beating or scolding, no kneeling for a long time, no broken legs, no crying, making a scene, or threatening suicide.

The aunt didn't object to them being together at all; in fact, she was happy for them and wished them well.

This was something An Qingyan never expected; it went so smoothly, it was like a dream, and he was completely stunned.

"Auntie is so kind, I really didn't expect her to agree." After entering the bedroom, the boy comfortably lay down on the bed, a relaxed and happy smile on his clean and pretty face, his eyes crinkling.

Gu Fei stood by the bed, looking down at the person on it. The boy was wearing a short white sweater, and when he lay down, a small section of his fair waist was exposed. He stared at that skin and said, "She will be a very good mother-in-law in the future."

"Wh...what mother-in-law?" An Qingyan was a little embarrassed and immediately sat up, muttering softly with her head down, "It's not even close to happening yet."

"Yes." The man leaned down, looking at the boy's fair and handsome face. Further down, there were hickeys that even the turtleneck sweater couldn't hide. He chuckled, "What? What did you do last night? You're going back on your word, baby?"

An Qingyan: "...I acknowledge it."

After all, it was his initiative.

"Good boy." Gu Fei smiled with satisfaction, then said, "Open your mouth."

An Qingyan was a little confused, but she still obediently opened her mouth, and then something was stuffed into her mouth, and a rich milky aroma spread in her mouth.

He saw the package the man was holding; it was a White Rabbit milk candy.

"Yan Yan is very brave, Brother Fei will reward you with candy."

The courage Gu Fei was referring to was An Qingyan's initiative towards Yu Qingtong.

An Qingyan: "Why not preserved plum candy?"

Gu Fei: "Yan Yan's eyes were red from crying last night, she looked like a little rabbit."
