Chapter 186 Dad (Two in One) Mr. Yu, I’m giving birth to a baby…
Yu Shang's biological father's surname was Yue, and his name was Yue Lanshan. He was a literary youth when he was young. He dropped out of high school and wandered around. Because of his handsome appearance, he was favored by many women.
Among those women, there are bar owners, factory girls, singers who are also displaced, and girls from wealthy families.
Yu Shang's mother, Yao Li, is such a girl. She met Yue Lanshan by chance in college and fell in love with him from that moment on. She got pregnant before marriage and had an abortion. Her parents were very disappointed in her and cut off contact with her.
After graduating from college, Yao Li and Yue Lanshan formed a small family. Although they lived in poverty, they were truly in love for several years.
Later, Yao Li became pregnant again and gave birth to a son, named Yue Tong. At the same time, Yue Lanshan published a collection of poems and received tens of thousands of yuan in copyright fees, which he gave to Yao Li to supplement the family income.
Yao Li scraped together some money and opened a cake shop. She used the skills she learned in her spare time to make desserts and sell them while taking care of her children.
Two years passed in this lukewarm manner. Yue Tong was able to remember things, but the role of father was still missing in his memory.
Yue Lanshan also thought that he could live an ordinary life with his wife and children, but the cynical impulse kept lingering in his mind. The daily life of firewood, rice, oil and salt was like a blunt knife, gradually wearing away his inspiration.
Every night when he returned home, he would feel a brief moment of happiness when he looked at his beautiful wife and lovely son.
However, when daybreak came and they went their separate ways and did their own things, Yue Lanshan was attracted by a huge force called the distance, which forced him to escape from this predicament.
He knew that this was irresponsible and that he deserved to be punished, but he did it anyway.
One morning, he left a letter and left home, becoming his free self again.
Yue Lanshan called Yao Li several times, but he didn't dare to tell the truth and just told lies. In name, he was out there collecting folk songs and looking for inspiration, but in reality he was reminiscing about his past life, wandering around with all kinds of women, and writing some sour poems.
Gradually, Yue Lanshan went home less and less, and he almost didn't recognize his son Yue Tong. Sometimes he even couldn't remember how old his son was. His wife waited for several more years.
The colorful world outside dazzled Yue Lanshan and he didn't want to go back.
Until one day, he woke up from his drunken dream and the police called him, saying that his wife had been stabbed more than ten times by robbers and asked him to go back.
Yue Lanshan thought it was a scam and hung up the phone.
Later, the police made several more calls, but Yue Lanshan refused to answer any of them. He was scared to death and felt that as long as he didn't answer the call, his wife and children would still be alive.
This hiding lasted for more than half a year.
When he remembered to call his wife, he couldn't get through.
Yue Lanshan thought his wife and children were dead, and cried for days and nights. Fortunately, there was an understanding woman who stayed with him all the time.
A few months later, Yue Lanshan accidentally learned that his son was not dead. He was sent to a children's welfare home and adopted by a wealthy family.
Afterwards, no matter how hard Yue Lanshan searched, he couldn't find anything.
The welfare home staff said coldly: "Yue Tong's file shows that his mother is dead and his father is missing. If you are really his father, why did you show up now?"
Yue Lanshan was speechless and had to leave in embarrassment.
A year after Yao Li's death, Yue Lanshan got married again, and the considerate woman became pregnant with his child. Yue Lanshan secretly vowed that this time he would never let down a woman who loved him.
However, the woman had a genetic disease and died three years after giving birth to a daughter for him.
To make matters worse, Yue Lanshan's daughter was also diagnosed with hereditary hemophilia and coagulation dysfunction. She had to be hospitalized to observe changes in her condition, and the monthly cost was at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.
Yue Lanshan once thought about giving up custody, but after consulting, he found out that most families who adopt children will first choose those who are healthy. People like his daughter who have genetic diseases may die without anyone adopting them.
As a last resort, Yue Lanshan could only grit his teeth and persevere. He began to frequently contact his former girlfriends and sold his body and performing arts to pay for his daughter's medical treatment. He thought, maybe this is also a kind of karma.
Until one day he saw the news about Suzhou City, the opening ceremony of Deyin Senior High School and Deyin Junior High School, two aristocratic schools famous throughout the country and even the world.
In the news, luxury cars flowed like water on the streets, students of all colors gathered there, and Deyin's splendid facade, castle-like buildings, and ancient history all impacted the audience's vision.
At Deyin's opening ceremony, the first speaker was actually a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old.
The young man had long eyebrows and deep eyes, was handsome and had an upright body. The shadow of his past could be vaguely seen between his eyebrows and eyes.
In a trance, Yue Lanshan seemed to see Yao Li, his deceased wife who was betrayed by him and eventually died tragically at the hands of bandits. She was his first home in this world.
And now, there is nothing.
He only has a sickly daughter to depend on.
Yue Lanshan felt a pang of heartache, and at the same time, a surge of excitement arose spontaneously like exploding fireworks, ringing the alarm bell in his mind - his son was adopted by a rich man and is now a rich man too!
The camera zoomed in, and Yue Lanshan saw the red school badge on his son's left chest on the podium, and below the badge was the name of his grade.
"...Yu Shang?" Yue Lanshan's voice came from the past to the present.
But his son's eyes were distant and cold, and even if he called him by his nickname "Atong", it was impossible to save his face in the slightest.
"I only have one father."
"My name is Yu Shang."
After Yu Shang finished speaking, he got into the car and said to Lu Qiuyan and Tian Ruan in a cold voice, "Get in the car."
Lu Qiuyan got in the car and sat next to him.
Tian Ruan sat in the passenger seat and slammed the door. The driver started the car immediately.
Seeing this, Yue Lanshan rushed over in a panic, slapped the car window and said, "Yu Shang, I really am your father! Listen to me, I need your help now, your sister..."
The Porsche backed up half a meter and suddenly turned out of the parking space. If Yue Lanshan didn't dodge, his feet would be crushed by the wheels. He immediately jumped out of the way and waited for the wheels to pass. He hurried after it, "Yu Shang, you have a sister! She's sick!"
The Porsche had already driven out of the hospital gate and merged into the night traffic.
The car was very quiet, with only the cold air from the air conditioner and the occasional honking of the horn.
Tian Ruan was upset, but still tried to appease him: "He must be a liar, just ignore him."
Lu Qiuyan didn't know what to say. His only concept of "father" was that he drank, cheated, and boasted, and it was the same whether he had him or not. But it cannot be denied that it was indeed his father's money that brought him into the world, and he should fulfill his filial duty to his father, who gave him life and raised him.
But Yu Shang's situation is different. Yu Shang's biological father only gave birth to him but did not raise him. His education was completely unknown. He was an invisible and intangible person who had been forgotten for so many years, but suddenly appeared.
If it was Lu Qiuyan, he would just think it was troublesome and beat the man away with a punch - but Yu Shang, as upright as he is, would just quietly stay away.
Yu Shang looked out the window, his pupils were dark, his thin lips were slightly pursed, his well-defined features were coated with colorful neon glow, he hummed lightly, his expression could not be seen.
It would be great if he really was a liar. Tian Ruan thought tiredly that Yue Lanshan was not shameless, but he was really shameless. When he was young, he relied on his handsome face to do whatever he wanted and lived a life of drunkenness and debauchery. When he reached middle age, although he had worked hard to take care of his daughter's illness, he really wanted to abandon her and leave.
In the original book, Yue Lanshan appeared after graduating from Yu Shang University and returning to China, becoming the first shackle that prevented the protagonists from being together.
After all the mischief, Yue Lanshan started drinking and got drunk, and was eventually killed in a car accident.
At that time, his daughter had been abandoned by him and had been dead for several years.
Arriving at the hotel, the three of them boarded the elevator with heavy steps and went into their respective rooms. Tian Ruan worriedly reminded Lu Qiuyan: "Keep an eye on Yu Shangdian tonight to prevent him from getting upset."
Lu Qiuyan: "...Why can't he get over it?"
Tian Ruan: "What if he goes to Yue Lanshan in the middle of the night and tries to solve the problem with money?"
In the original book, Yu Shang really used money to get rid of Yue Lanshan and didn't bother to communicate with him at all. Yu Shang was already 23 years old at that time. After several years of tempering and settling down, he was no longer the soft-hearted man he was when he was young.
Lu Qiuyan stared at Tian Ruan suspiciously, "How do you know that Yu Shang's biological father is called Yue Lanshan?"
Tian Ruan: "...I calculated it with my fingers."
"Then figure out what my father's name is?"
Tian Ruan bit the bullet and lied: "Father Lu, Land Rover?"
Lu Qiuyan gave a thumbs up in astonishment: "Awesome, you can even guess this."
Tian Ruan: “…” Sure enough, the NPC’s name is very NPC.
Lu Qiuyan: "Because of my father's name, I don't want to drive a Land Rover anymore."
Tian Ruan: "I don't want to drive either."
It would be a nightmare if I thought of my father when I got into a Land Rover.
Tian Ruan glanced at room 2208, and heard the sound of water running down the shower bed. "Lu Qiuyan, go in. Remember to keep an eye on Yu Shang. Don't let him miss you for even a moment."
Lu Qiuyan nodded and closed the guest room door.
Tian Ruan also returned to his guest room. The two beds inside were empty, there was no sign of human life, only the main lights were on. He turned on all the small lights everywhere, including the one in the bathroom, which made him feel warmer.
Tian Ruan sent a message to Yu Jingmo: Mr. Yu, I’m back at the hotel, good night.
After a while, Yu Jingmo replied: Good night/Moon
Tian Ruan didn't want to disturb Yu Jingmo's rest, so he took a shower and went to bed.
The next day was the last day of the summer camp, and the teacher gathered everyone together for dinner, shopping, and play. There are two places to choose from, one is the amusement park, and the other is the luxury shopping mall opposite.
Most people chose the amusement park. These young men and women had already visited various luxury stores, so there was nothing new.
Tian Ruan said: "Let's go to the amusement park to relax."
Lu Qiuyan nodded and said, "Let's go buy some Haagen-Dazs."
Tian Ruan: "Yu Shang, Lu Qiuyan said he wants to treat you to Haagen-Dazs."
Lu Qiuyan: “…”
Yu Shang, who originally had no expression on his face, turned around and asked, "?"
Lu Qiuyan: "I'll treat you and Tian Ruan to Haagen-Dazs."
Yu Shang said calmly: "I don't need it."
Tian Ruan: “…” I’m really worried about these two stupid people.
After the teachers finished speaking, they organized everyone to get on the bus. Just as Tian Ruan was about to go up, he suddenly saw Yu Shang talking to the teacher and pulled Lu Qiuyan over.
Lu Qiuyan: “What?”
Tian Ruan pointed at Yu Shang.
Lu Qiuyan withdrew his foot from the car, put his hands in his pockets, and waited coolly.
After a while, Yu Shang finished talking to the teacher and watched the car in front leave. Seeing that Tian Ruan and Lu Qiuyan did not get in, he asked, "Why didn't you get in the car?"
Lu Qiuyan pointed at Tian Ruan and said, "He pulled me."
Tian Ruan began to talk nonsense: "Among the three of us, there must be one who can teach me."
Yu Shang didn't care, pointed to the last special car and said, "You guys go and have fun, I have something to do."
"What's the matter?" Lu Qiuyan asked, "We will help you with it."
"Need not."
Tian Ruan's mind raced, and he said, "I want to see Mr. Yu too, let's go."
Yu Shang looked at him with slight surprise.
Tian Ruan knew that in the original book, after Yu Jingmo learned that Yue Lanshan had come to him, the first person he met was Yu Shang to ask for his opinion.
Yu Shang’s answer at the time was: “I am a member of the Yu family. Anything that can be solved with money is a small matter.”
Yu Jingmo was very satisfied with his answer. He did not interfere in the affairs of Yu Shang and Yue Lanshan, and let Yu Shang solve it himself. It was not until Yue Lanshan died in a car accident that Yu Jingmo asked if it was Yu Shang who did it.
After receiving a negative answer, Yue Lanshan's role ended.
But Yu Shang is still young, can he really give such a rational and cold-blooded answer?
Tian Ruan was worried about this, so he had to follow.
Yu Shang's thick and long brows were slightly frowned, and his facial features, which were about to grow out, looked even sharper than blades. He could easily cut someone with just a glance.
He didn't say anything, and the driver parked the Porsche silently in front of the hotel.
Yu Shang got into the car, closed the door, and drove away.
Tian Ruan stretched out Erkang's hand: "Hey!"
Lu Qiuyan rolled his eyes: "We can't go to the amusement park now, and Yu Shang has also run away."
Tian Ruan angrily took out his phone and called a taxi: "I want to complain to Mr. Yu."
Mao Qi stepped out and said, "Madam, I'll take you there."
Tian Ruan showed surprise: "How could I forget about Brother Mao? Thank you."
As the captain of the Yu family security team, Mao Qi naturally had to know the whereabouts of the two masters of the family so that he could report them in a timely manner. He drove his wife and the "future young lady" to the branch here.
The branch here mainly deals with online media advertising and cooperates with other branches in their promotions. For example, when a certain brand of jewelry is launched, the company here will find a way to get all the large screens in first-tier and second-tier cities to place advertisements.
The building of this branch office has a huge electronic screen, which plays advertisements of Yu family's jewelry, real estate, cosmetics and other industries in a loop.
Tian Ruan was surprised to find that the facial cleanser and shower gel he often used were actually "his own" products.
"Are all branch offices so grand?" Tian Ruan exclaimed.
"As the boss of a branch company, you can walk around freely in there," said Lu Qiuyan.
Tian Ruan nodded, walked into the glass door of the lobby, passed the clock-in machine, faced the sweet-smiling receptionist, and said, "I am your boss."
Receptionist: “? Excuse me, could you please say it again?”
Tian Ruan was wearing a T-shirt and trousers that you can see everywhere on the street. His hair was unkempt and his face was white and clean. He looked like a real student. "I said I am your boss."
"...Please wait a moment." The receptionist picked up the landline suspiciously, dialed the internal number, and whispered, "Assistant Xu, someone said he is the boss's grandfather."
Assistant Xu said from the other side: "Boss's grandfather? Why is he here?"
"Is he really the boss's grandfather? He looks very young."
"How young?"
“Like a high school student.”
Assistant Xu took a deep breath and said, "You believe this kind of liar?"
The front desk clerk said, “I see.” After hanging up the phone, she said to Tian Ruan, “I’m sorry, our boss doesn’t have a grandfather.”
Tian Ruan: “…”
Lu Qiuyan: "I counted with my fingers and found that your grandfather sneezed now."
Tian Ruan stared at the front desk gloomily, "You will be punished if you curse the old man to death."
The receptionist shuddered suddenly and said, "I'm sorry, I can't let you in."
Tian Ruan called Yu Jingmo directly and asked the first question: "Mr. Yu, am I your boss?"
Yu Jingmo heard no more, no less, "Yeah."
"Then when I get to the branch office, can I go up there?"
"Of course I can." It was very quiet over there on Yu Jingmo's end, and his voice almost echoed.
"Then come pick me up."
"Um."
The receptionist thought Tian Ruan was bluffing, so she just smiled politely and said nothing.
Tian Ruan did not blame the front desk, saying, "Your anti-fraud awareness still needs improvement."
The receptionist asked: "Where?"
"I'm so young, it's actually possible for me to be a grandfather."
"?"
Tian Ruan looked at Lu Qiuyan, "If you and Yu Shang got married early and had a baby."
The veins on Lu Qiuyan's forehead jumped: "Who will give birth, me or Yu Shang?"
Tian Ruan was surprised and said: "Men can't have children. This is not the ABO world."
"Abo world?"
"A novel set in a world where men can have children.
Lu Qiuyan said with a chill, “Terrible.”
Tian Ruan: "...I think it's great. Men can have children, which means that men and women are equal."
Lu Qiuyan: "Even if I could give birth, I wouldn't."
"Why? The baby you and Yu Shang have will definitely be very cute, smart, and handsome."
Lu Qiuyan asked back: "If I let you give birth to a cute, smart and handsome child, would you be willing?"
Tian Ruan was stunned by the question. He would have firmly said no before. However, after being with Yu Jingmo for a long time, with so many descendants in his body, he also fantasized about those moments -
For example, he gave birth to a row of apple-sized babies for Yu Jingmo. The oldest was named Yubao, the second was Tianbao, the third was Ruanbao, and the fourth was Jinyinzhubao...
Those babies are more like dolls than living beings.
Tian Ruan shook his head solemnly. He couldn't imagine himself being responsible for a living baby. But if Yu Shang and Lu Qiuyan turned into babies, he would know how to get along with them.
The dull sound of leather shoes was heard, followed by a clear and deep voice like a cello: "Madam."
Tian Ruan happily ran over, "Mr. Yu, I'm giving birth to a baby... Bah, bah, here I come."
Yu Jingmo: "? You want to have a baby?" He glanced at the young man's flat belly and said, "I'm afraid not."
"My tongue slipped."
"If you really want to have a baby, wait until technology is more advanced."
“…I don’t want to.”
Yu Jingmo took his hand, and everyone around him lowered their heads and dared not look, "Come."
Tian Ruan called Lu Qiuyan: "My friend, let's visit together."
Lu Qiuyan didn't want to go over, but thinking of Yu Shang, she was still worried. She looked at the couple with a sullen face as they showed their affection as if no one was around.
It was not until the boss entered the special elevator to the top floor that the receptionist raised his face in a trance, "The boss's grandfather is also the boss's wife. There is so much information..."
Hundreds of miles away, poor old man Yu sneezed three times in a row. His skinny body trembled, and he leaned on a cane and shouted, "I dreamed that black smoke came out of the Yu family's ancestral tomb. There must be a treacherous person appearing!"
In the spacious and tidy meeting room, there were three vases with fresh flowers on the table. Apparently, they were specially prepared by the branch manager for his superior's inspection. Tea and snacks were also available.
Yu Jingmo sat in the spacious main seat, with Tian Ruan on his left and Yu Shang standing opposite him as if he was being punished.
When Lu Qiuyan saw Yu Shang standing there, he slipped out. It was better to stand at the door than inside - from this distance he could both eavesdrop on the conversation between the family of three and slack off.
Yu Shang glanced at the back door. The branch office was very quiet and there was no sound on this floor.
The tea is filtered out from the spout of the purple clay teapot, and the orange-red tea soup is poured into the sky-blue tea cup, forming a rich and rich color. Tian Ruan picked it up and took a sip. He couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, but he could taste that the current situation was a bit bad.
Yu Jingmo knew that Yue Lanshan was coming last night. He was originally waiting for Yu Shang to tell him last night, but in the end he came only this morning after being summoned.
It is difficult to guess what young people are thinking, but Yu Jingmo knows that the good seedlings he has worked so hard to raise may be picked by others. The business may suffer some losses, but it will be earned back sooner or later, but the efforts invested in the heirs can never be earned back once the losses are made back.
"What do you think?" Yu Jingmo took a sip of tea and spoke in a light voice.
Yu Shang lowered his brows and said honestly, "Dad, I don't know."
"You only have one dad."
"……yes."
"But blood ties cannot be severed."
Tian Ruan interrupted: "Blood ties cannot be severed, but to be honest, we are all related by blood, because we are all descendants of Yan and Huang."
Yu Jingmo curved his lips and said, "Well said."
Yu Shang frowned slightly, with a faint dark circles under his eyes, as if he had returned to the time when Yu Jingmo had just lost his memory and was extremely busy.
"If you want to admit it, you can admit it." Yu Jingmo said sarcastically without any expression, but in fact he had thought of 108 ways to deal with Yue Lanshan.
Yu Shang shook his head, "I don't want to."
"Then what do you want to do?" Yu Jingmo tried his best to play the role of a kind father and asked his son for his opinion so as not to appear so arbitrary.
Tian Ruan looked at Yu Jingmo's outfit.
Yu Jingmo caught the young man's cunning eyes. His fatherly face was a little cracked, his eyes were drooping, and his expression was as cold as ice. "What's with that expression, Madam?"
Tian Ruan was stunned in a second: "Ah?"
The young man was like a clever kitten just now, but now his eyes are wide open like a little white rabbit. Yu Jingmo raised his hand and pinched his soft face, "Don't criticize me in your heart."
Tian Ruan sat upright and opened Yu Jingmo's hand, "I didn't."
Yu Shang waited until the flirting stopped before he said, "I don't want to do anything, I don't want to see anything, I don't want to hear anything." After saying this, he felt slightly annoyed, "But what's the difference between me and him?"
Yue Lanshan escaped all his life and also let people down all his life.
Yu Shang: "I don't want to be like him."
From a distance of five or six meters, Yu Jingmo looked at the successor he had personally trained, "Whether you want to or not, it all stems from the same reason. Meet Yue Lanshan."
"dad……"
"Let's make peace with him."
Yu Shang clenched his fingers, "Hmm."
Tian Ruan raised his hand, "I'll go too."
"What are you going to do?" Yu Shang frowned.
Tian Ruan: "I am your stepfather, and he is also your father. I will fight the ultimate duel between your stepfather and your lazy, frustrated, and irresponsible biological father. It is not worth it for Mr. Yu to go out in person."
Yu Jingmo took a sip of tea and said, "Remember to broadcast live to me."
Yu Shang: “…”
