Chapter 7-07 Still a virgin, but with a baby.
Early Saturday morning, Qiu Ming knocked on the door across the hall carrying two large bags of breakfast: "Good morning, Yan-ge, let's grab something to eat together."
Hearing the noise, Xixi ran out of the bathroom, toothpaste foam around her mouth, and greeted everyone sweetly, "Good morning, brother."
She stared intently at the breakfast in his hand.
Qiu Ming cheerfully invited the two of them to come and have breakfast. He noticed Pei Yiyan glancing at Xi Xi and speaking in a tone like a strict old father: "Wipe your mouth clean."
The little girl rolled her eyes at him, hummed, and casually wiped her face: "Men are such a hassle."
Pei Yiyan: "
Qiu Ming: Hahahaha!
Qiu Ming burst into laughter, his shoulders shaking. Pei Yiyan turned and gave him a death stare: "Is it that funny?"
"No, no, no." Qiu Ming fawned, opening the bag and setting out the breakfast. "I called a ride-sharing service at nine o'clock. I still have forty minutes. I'll definitely make it."
Xi Xi suffers from motion sickness, and Pei Yiyan was worried that she would vomit in the car, so he didn't dare let her eat too much.
After estimating that he was about 60% full, he packed his things and headed out. Looking at the large and small bags in his hands, the child's bright eyes asked, "Are we moving?"
Pei Yiyan walked away silently without saying a word.
Qiu Ming felt a pang of pity and patted her head, saying, "It's not about moving, it's about taking you to find a fun place."
Having stayed by Pei Yiyan's side for several days, Xixi hardly went out to play at all; the little ginseng spirit was practically getting moldy from staying there all day.
At first glance, their reaction to the idea of going out to play is as enthusiastic as that of a puppy.
The three of them got into the car heading to the city. On the way, Pei Yiyan received an electronic version of the paternity test report. Confident in the results, he didn't open it to read.
Today's trip to the city was mainly to take Xixi to the welfare home. He had learned about it beforehand, and that the welfare home had the best environment in the city.
It would be much better for the child to live there than to stay with him.
Pei Yiyan came out with the paternity test report, and Qiu Ming came up to him and asked, "Brother Yan, how did the results go?"
"That goes without saying, of course it's not my child."
As expected, Qiu Ming felt a little disappointed, but since he was already here, he might as well see how it goes.
"Let me take a look." He took the file bag and quickly flipped through it.
The more you look at their expressions, the more something seems off. It only takes one sentence to go from being excited to having your pupils dizzy with shock.
[Based on our center's identification, existing data, and DNA analysis results, it supports the conclusion that D2115 is the biological father of D1625, thus confirming their blood relationship.]
Pei Yiyan said with disdain, "What are you doing? Don't make that stupid face."
Qiu Ming closed his mouth, his eyes dark and unsettling: "Brother Yan, the evidence is overwhelming, how long are you going to keep denying it?"
"?" Pei Yiyan frowned. "Spit it out."
Qiu Ming: "Xi Xi is your child."
He shoved the clueless Xixi into his arms and said, "You have to take responsibility as a father."
Just as Pei Yiyan was about to explode, Qiu Mingliang, with a strong will to survive, showed her the last page of the forensic report: "Take a look for yourself."
“”
"Impossible!" Pei Yiyan rubbed his eyes hard, refusing to believe it. "There must be some mistake!"
How could a virgin like him have a child? And the child is so big. How could he not know whether he has had intimate relations with other people?
We can't just suddenly have a child out of nowhere!
Pei Yiyan's strong reaction caught the attention of the staff. Upon learning that he questioned the authenticity of the results, the center's director immediately decided to perform the test for him free of charge.
Just to be on the safe side, Pei Yiyan also took Xixi to another appraisal center. With both centers conducting the tests simultaneously, he refused to believe that anything could go wrong.
They still worked at breakneck speed, this time shortening the process to one day. Two days later, Pei Yiyan received two identical paternity test reports.
He and Xixi were confirmed to be biologically father and daughter.
The world has collapsed for Pei Yiyan, a young man in the prime of his life!
No one can make a grumpy and gloomy teenager bow down, but three paternity test reports can.
Qiu Ming patted Pei Yiyan's shoulder sympathetically: "Brother Yan, face reality."
Pei Yiyan gritted his teeth, turned to look at Xixi who was hugging her phone and giggling to herself: "Who is your mother? What's her name?"
Xi Xi's big, round eyes sparkled: "Mom is your wife."
"Daddy, how could you forget this?" the little voice said in disbelief. "Mommy will definitely spank your big bottom with a little stick when she finds out."
Qiu Ming: !
Is this even possible?
He couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hee hee hee hee!"
Pei Yiyan's temple throbbed with veins. He glared at him, feeling a sense of helplessness at being unable to communicate with a child.
He struggled for a long time before finally looking at the child who shared his face for the first time, and then slowly fell into a daze. He had become a father.
To have a child with blood ties to you without any preparation or warning is like a dream.
So, when and with whom did he have an intimate relationship?
Pei Yiyan's mind went blank; he had no clue what to do.
No matter how shocking or unbelievable it may seem, the fact that he has a child is undeniable, and he can only accept it reluctantly.
When he faced Xixi again, his mindset underwent a complete transformation.
The father and daughter weren't very good at styling hair, and Xixi would run around with messy, unkempt hair every day, which her obsessive-compulsive father found extremely displeasing.
"If you cut your hair, I'll take you to KFC."
"don't want."
The little girl had refused firmly at first, but then she said with a cheeky grin, "Daddy, Xixi wants to eat fried chicken."
"Ha, eat farts."
"Daddy eats farts, Xixi eats fried chicken, fried chicken, fried chicken!"
The child's tantrums were endless, and Pei Yiyan felt as if a loudspeaker had been installed in his head, making his scalp tingle.
"Eat, eat, eat. Shut up."
The handsome high school boy is suddenly transformed into a single father, and Pei Yiyan tosses and turns all night, unable to control the various thoughts that keep popping into his head.
The place I live in now is too small. It's too cramped to sleep on the sofa all the time. To raise a child, you need at least a three-bedroom apartment.
One room serves as a children's room, one as his bedroom, and one as a study.
Baicao County is not a big city, so housing prices are relatively cheap. With renovations included, 800,000 yuan is enough to buy a 130-square-meter three-bedroom apartment.
But he doesn't have time to wait for renovations; if he's going to buy, he wants a large, single-level apartment that he can move into right away.
After hesitating for a second, Pei Yiyan decided to use the startup capital to buy a house.
With his plans in place, he felt a sense of relief and drifted off to sleep. The next day, despite Lao Lü's stern warnings, he took two days off and then took Xixi to look at houses everywhere.
The father and daughter, who resemble siblings, are just like rebellious teenagers who skip school and wander around instead of studying.
Several real estate agents ignored them, and Pei Yiyan sneered, wanting to curse.
In the end, a young woman who had just joined the company volunteered to accompany them to all the properties.
"This is a newly opened community with excellent landscaping. The transportation nearby is also very convenient. There are two primary schools and a high school just 100 meters away. There is a large supermarket across the street, and a small free park right next to it on the right. You can go there for a walk every day when you have nothing to do."
This was the last listing. The real estate agent didn't expect the two students to close a deal; they were just out for some fresh air and a stroll.
The house is well-ventilated from north to south, with excellent natural light. You can absorb the essence of the sun and moon just by sitting by the bay window. Moreover, the area is relatively lush with vegetation compared to other neighborhoods, which is very friendly to the little ginseng spirit baby who needs to cultivate diligently.
Do you like it?
I love it!
"Let's do it here then. How much?"
"Huh?" The real estate saleswoman thought she had misheard.
Pei Yiyan lazily repeated it once more.
other side:"!!!"
With a bright, professional smile, he said, "The location and natural light here are top-notch, and it's a fully furnished three-bedroom apartment, so the price will be slightly higher. The full price is 980,000 yuan, with options for loans."
"Here you go." He handed over the card crisply and calmly, "Full payment."
other side:? ? ?
Ahhhh, she closed a deal!!
The house was bought on the same day, and the person moved in the next day. After buying the house, Pei Yiyan only had 50,000 yuan left in his card.
The sudden financial hardship made him feel a long-lost sense of urgency; making money was an urgent matter.
"Brother Yan, you moved out so suddenly!" Qiu Ming, the free laborer, looked around and clicked his tongue enviously. "But this place is really big and bright. Is the apartment across the hall empty?"
"It's empty now, but who knows what will happen in the future."
Qiu Ming: "Then I need to hurry up and make some money! Brother Yan, can I borrow those books of yours again?"
Pei Yiyan nodded absentmindedly, focusing intently on tying the child's hair into a crooked little bun.
Qiu Ming laughed. He'd been raising the kid for almost a week, and his skills were still atrocious. It turned out even a master had areas he wasn't good at.
Fortunately, Xixi's good looks saved the day.
The little dumpling stood in front of the full-length mirror, beaming with pride: "Hehe, Xixi is even prettier today than yesterday."
Upon seeing this, Pei Yiyan let out a soft snort through his nose. "Show-off."
The new house was completely empty. After cleaning the house, the three of them went out together to buy furniture and household items.
You don't know the cost of firewood and rice until you're in charge of the household. Pei Yiyan had been eating his fill all these years without having to worry about anyone else, but it was only when he went shopping that he realized how expensive those common items were.
The two beds, a sofa, and a dining table cost more than 30,000 yuan, which made the already impoverished family even worse off.
Looking at the balance of over ten thousand yuan in his bank card, Pei Yiyan silently tightened his belt.
Get a set of children's bath wash, children's shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, towel, bathtub, slippers, and pajamas.
While browsing the home furnishings section, Xixi immediately spotted a Strawberry Bear four-piece bedding set with white lace trim. It was so cute and suited her perfectly.
There were also mung bean-colored curtains, cartoon dog pillows, colorful murals, and lush green potted plants—all the vibrant colors filled their new home.
The cozy decor of the new home is a complete departure from Pei Yiyan's usual dark and gloomy style.
Pei Yiyan and Qiu Ming worked hard, while Xixi lay on the soft new sofa watching a tablet, and her silvery laughter rang out from time to time in the living room.
Qiu Ming gloated and teased, "Brother Yan, with a little princess in your family, your house is going to be very lively from now on."
Pei Yiyan glanced at him and scoffed.
She's not a princess, she's a queen. She'll sound the air raid siren at the drop of a hat, she's incredibly domineering.
As the two went inside to make the bed, Pei Yiyan's phone, which was on the table, began to vibrate.
A moment later, the little girl came running to the bedroom with her phone in hand, shouting in a loud voice, "Daddy, Auntie is looking for you!"
Pei Yiyan was startled and looked up speechlessly: "Don't shout, I'm not a descendant of the deaf."
He took the phone and felt a chill run down his spine when he saw who was calling.
Zhou Yi, his mother.
"Xiao Yan?"
"Yes, it's me."
"Xiao Yan, have you been feeling unwell lately?"
Pei Yiyan's grades were poor, but he was still quite well-behaved, rarely late or leaving early, and seldom skipping classes.
This time, he missed four days of class in a row. He promised to come on Monday but then stood Lao Lü up. Lao Lü couldn't take it anymore and called Zhou Yi.
