Chapter 252 Phoenix Palace - Old Master Feng (without Xiao Xi)...
252:
When Grandpa Feng saw that he dared to cover his mouth, he was so angry that he picked up his cane and hit his grandson's leg.
They've really grown up; their wings have hardened!
It's one thing to not tell him about your relationship, but now you're not even letting him speak!
Even Feng Wen wouldn't dare treat him like this!
Caught off guard by the two blows, Feng Que quickly released his rebellious hand and looked at his grandfather, "Grandpa, come here, let's talk over here."
"No!" Old Master Feng exclaimed, his beard bristling and eyes wide.
Feng Que leaned close to his ear and said, "Tell me about your granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Feng reluctantly lifted his leg and walked to the side with him.
His personal driver and Feng Que's assistant, Xiao Dai, wanted to follow them, but Feng Que stopped them.
Xiao Dai: ? ? ?
So secret? He can't even know?
But what about the granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson that the old man just mentioned?
When did his boss find him a wife and son? Why didn't he tell him at all?
That's really intriguing.
Feng Que led Old Master Feng to a secluded place.
He then said awkwardly, "Grandpa, don't listen to my dad's nonsense, he's lying to you."
Grandpa Feng: ? ? ?
"Lying to me? You're the one lying to me now! Who are the leads in your movie? It's your boyfriend and his son."
Phoenix Palace: !!!
How could his dad even say this?!
When Grandpa Feng saw that he had left him speechless, he became even angrier.
"Xiao Que, although Grandpa isn't by your side like your parents, he's always been sincere and devoted to you. Now that you're in a relationship, you don't tell your grandpa who's right here, but tell your parents who are far away. Do you think that's appropriate?!"
The thought of this incident made Grandpa Feng so angry that he wanted to hit his grandson a couple more times with his cane.
The night before last, Feng Wen called him and said that he would come back earlier for the Chinese New Year this year. At that time, he didn't think much of it until Feng Wen mentioned that before returning home for the Chinese New Year, he and his wife would go to X City to see Mu Feng. It would be like old friends getting together, visiting each other, and cultivating their relationship. They could also visit Ye Qingxi along the way.
Grandpa Feng didn't understand. He could understand going to meet with Mu Feng, since the Mu family was doing well and the two families might have opportunities to cooperate in the future.
But who is this Ye Qingxi? Why should we go and see him on the way?
Upon hearing this, Feng's father asked in surprise, "Dad, didn't you know Mu Shaowu has a child?"
Grandpa Feng said, "I already know that Mu Feng has four children, which is already quite generous of him. What, do I need to know how many children his son has?"
Phoenix's father: ? ? ?
"But Mu Shaowu is dating Xiao Que, isn't he? Of course we need to know how many children he has."
Grandpa Feng sat up abruptly from his recliner. "What?! Mu Shaowu and Xiao Que are dating?! Xiao Que is dating?!"
Feng's father was even more shocked than him, "Xiao Que didn't tell you?"
Grandpa Feng: !!!
That little brat didn't tell him, did he?!
Grandpa Feng was furious. "When did he tell you this?!"
"Around the end of December."
Grandpa Feng: !!!
Feng's father: ...Oh no, it seems he really didn't tell their old man.
Feng's father could only comfort his father, saying, "Perhaps it's because Mu Shaowu is a man that he doesn't dare to tell you."
"So he dared to tell you?!"
Feng's father: "...That's because Lily was going to find him. He thought that Lily would tell us when she saw him and Mu Shaowu come back, so he told us in advance."
"He should have told me!" Old Master Feng said discontentedly. "I was right in front of him, and he didn't even tell me! Doesn't he know I want to see him date and get married, and wait to hold his great-grandchild?!"
"Perhaps it's precisely because they know that they dare not say it."
Grandpa Feng then belatedly realized: Mu Shaowu is a man, so if he and Mu Shaowu are together, they won't be able to have children!
His great-grandson was gone!
No, he just said that Mu Shaowu has a child named Ye Qingxi.
But that's Mu Shaowu's child!
It's not like it's their Xiao Que's child!
"No way," Old Master Feng refused. "I don't agree. How can a boy be with another boy?! I won't accept it."
Phoenix's father: ...
Feng's father quietly quoted, "Dad, you've been abroad for half your life. I thought you were used to it."
"I'm used to seeing other people's children, not my own," Old Master Feng said angrily. "What will happen to the children if he's with Mu Shaowu?"
"Didn't I just say that Shaowu has a child named Ye Qingxi? Then Ye Qingxi will naturally also be Xiao Que's child."
Grandpa Feng: ? ? ? !!!
Is this Chinese?!
It doesn't even sound like English!
"Listen to what you're saying. Feng Que's child, Ye Qingxi, does that sound like father and son?"
"Mu Shaowu and Ye Qingxi don't sound like father and son, do they?"
Grandpa Feng asked in confusion, "Why didn't he take Mu Shaowu's surname? Mu Feng actually agreed?"
Feng's father quickly explained, "This child is not Mu Shaowu's biological child. He is the orphan of Mu Feng's friend, so the child takes his biological father's surname."
He said so.
Grandpa Feng nodded.
However, "I still disagree. I still think Xiao Que should find a girl."
Feng's father: ...Do you think this will work?
"Dad, what if, I mean what if, Xiao Que just likes men? If you insist on opposing it now, and Xiao Que breaks up with Mu Shaowu for your sake, and then finds another man who is not as good-looking, not as knowledgeable, and not as well-off as Mu Shaowu, then... should we still let him break up with Mu Shaowu?"
Grandpa Feng replied without hesitation, "Of course."
"Let's do the math. Among people with similar qualifications to Mu Shaowu, how many are still single? Of those singles, how many are men who are a good match for Xiao Que's age? And of these people, how many are Xiao Que's type and who would be interested in her?"
Grandpa Feng: ...
"Right?" Feng's father said helplessly, "Given that he insists on liking men, the fact that he likes Mu Shaowu, not some Zhang San or Li Si, is already a blessing in disguise."
"So he only likes men?" Old Master Feng asked, displeased. "Can't he like girls?"
Feng's father: "Isn't it better to be safe than sorry? You know Xiao Que, she's never liked anyone since she was little. Now she finally likes Mu Shaowu, but he happens to be a boy. Who can guarantee that he'll like girls in the future?"
"If he just doesn't like it, we can't force him to marry that girl!"
Grandpa Feng: ...
"It's my fault," Old Master Feng said self-reflectively. "It's all my fault."
"Given the environment and political correctness abroad, especially since Xiao Que is a director, and the entertainment industry is even more politically correct, wouldn't Xiao Que be affected?"
“If I hadn’t settled abroad back then, and if I hadn’t let you settle abroad, he would have grown up in China and things might not have turned out this way.”
Feng's father thought to himself, "That's not necessarily true."
Isn't Mu Shaowu someone who grew up in China and also likes men?
However, he wisely didn't say a word.
After Grandpa Feng finished his self-criticism, he was finally able to calm down a bit.
"What's going on between him and Mu Shaowu? How did it start?"
"When he returned to China to film a movie, Mu Shaowu came to audition. He fell in love with her at first sight and immediately signed her. In order to keep Mu Shaowu, he even signed her son. Then he said that Mu Shaowu's acting skills were not good, so he insisted on flying over to give her personal guidance so that he could see her every day and develop feelings for her over time."
Grandpa Feng slapped his thigh and said, "I knew he was all set on staying with me when he came back. Why is he suddenly leaving for more than a month? Turns out, he's just fallen for someone and forgotten about me!"
"That's right." Mr. Feng was completely helpless against his son's love-struck mind. "You have no idea how much he loves Mu Shaowu. Mu Shaowu only has to pay him 50 million for breaching the contract, but he has to pay Mu Shaowu 500 million for breaching the contract!"
Grandpa Feng: !!!
"Why doesn't he just give himself to Mu Shaowu directly!"
“Then I guess he really wants to,” said Feng’s father. “He couldn’t be happier.”
"But let's look on the bright side," Feng's father comforted his old father. "He's dating now, and in a couple of years he'll get married. You'll be able to see his family happy sooner, and you'll be able to spend more time with your great-grandson. Maybe you'll even see your great-grandson fall in love and get married."
Grandpa Feng: ...If this great-grandson were his own great-grandson, that would be even better.
After hanging up the phone, Grandpa Feng couldn't resist asking his father to send him a clip of Ye Qingxi from a variety show.
Grandpa Feng said he would just take a look and not take it seriously, but that night he almost stayed up all night!
It must be said that the child is very cute, and Mu Shaowu is a good person who cares a lot about the child.
Exactly, how did she become his granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson?
After looking around and digesting the information for a day, Grandpa Feng decided that instead of staying idle at home, he should come to his grandson's film crew to see his future granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson.
As for his grandson, what does that have to do with him! Let's wait for his parents to come and see him!
"I didn't come to see you." Grandpa Feng looked at his grandson. "I came to see my granddaughter-in-law and my great-grandson. It has nothing to do with you."
Phoenix Palace: ...
Feng Que said with a headache, "Grandpa, it's not what you think."
"Of course it's not what I think. In my opinion, you should be dating a girl right now."
Phoenix Palace: ...
That's not what I meant either.
"Shut up." Old Master Feng was annoyed by his words.
He turned to leave, but Feng Que stopped him.
Grandpa Feng: ? ? ?
Are you planning a rebellion?
"No." Feng Que was almost in tears. "It's just that nobody in the crew knows about this, so Grandpa, could you please stop talking about your granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson? You can just call them by their names."
Grandpa Feng: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"I'm doing this for your granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson's sake." Feng Que quickly leaned close to his ear, "Think about it, if you say this, everyone will think that they got into the group because of my connections. Wouldn't all of Shao Wu and Xiao Xi's efforts be wasted?"
"Shao Wu really worked hard for this drama, and Xiao Xi's acting was superb. They both got the roles through auditions, and I didn't even know them back then. Now, if people hear you address them like that, who would think they got them on their own merits!"
Old Master Feng: "...Isn't this just you abusing your power for personal gain?"
"That's my problem too. It's my fault for using public office for private gain. It's not like Shaowu held a knife to my throat and forced me to do it."
Grandpa Feng: ...As expected of you! You're actually thinking about your future wife and children!
“Alright,” Old Master Feng agreed. “Mu Shaowu, Ye Qingxi, are these titles acceptable?”
"That's possible, but there's one more thing..."
"Anything else?" Old Master Feng asked, puzzled.
"Xiao Xi doesn't know about my relationship with Shao Wu yet."
Grandpa Feng: ? ? ? !!!
"What did you say?"
"Shaowu said that we have only just established a relationship, and it is not certain whether it will last. So we will not tell the child yet. We will tell Xiaoxi when our relationship is more stable."
"So in Xiaoxi's eyes, we are just friends, not director and actor. Don't let that slip."
Grandpa Feng: ………
"Can I still treat them to dinner today?"
Feng Que thought for a moment and said, "We can just invite Shao Wu. As for Xiao Xi, we don't need to invite her for now."
Grandpa Feng: ……………Do you think your grandfather is happy?
