Chapter 249 (Second Update)
249:
Mu Feng finished his meal and was about to take a nap when his phone rang.
He picked it up and saw the words "Feng Wen" clearly displayed on the caller ID.
They arrived quite quickly.
Mu Feng answered, "What's up?"
Feng's father: You still have "something to do"?
Something big has happened!
"Do you know that your son is dating my son?" Feng's father asked.
Mu Feng replied calmly, "I know."
"You know?" Feng's father asked in surprise. "You actually know?"
Mu Feng: ...
"You yourself said he's my son. Is it surprising that I know about my son?"
"Then why aren't you stopping them?!"
Mu Feng: "Why should I stop you?"
"Of course it's because they're both men!"
Mu Feng: "You've spent half your life abroad, I thought you were used to it."
Phoenix's father: ...
He would take this for granted if it happened in someone else's family!
But isn't it at home now?!
"If these two get together, what will happen to their children? Aren't you worried?"
Mu Feng was naturally not worried.
"Anyway, Shaowu has it."
Whether he's with Feng Que or not, it doesn't matter to him.
"What about Xiao Que? Xiao Que doesn't exist."
"That's what you should be worried about, what does it have to do with me?"
Phoenix's father: ? ? ?
How could you say such a thing?
Mu Feng retorted confidently, "Isn't what I said true?"
"Aren't you afraid I'll get one for Xiao Que too?!"
Mu Feng was of course not afraid.
Mu Shaowu and Feng Que were fake to begin with. If Feng Wenai wanted to do it for his son, so be it. What does it have to do with him?
"As long as you can get your son to agree, I have no objection."
"Are you just saying this because you know my son likes your son, and that you won't agree to my request in order to please your son?"
Mu Feng: ...Their fake drama was actually like this?
Good, Mu Feng is very satisfied.
His son should naturally be liked by people, not disliked by them.
"You're overthinking it," Mu Feng said calmly.
"Am I overthinking it? Do you think I don't know you? Do you think you're some kind of magnanimous person, Mu Feng? Ye Qingxi is Mu Shaowu's son, of course there's no problem with that. But they're married, and if they have another child, would you agree to that? You'd just say, anyway, he's not their biological son, one Xiaoxi is enough, there's no need to raise so many. Am I right?"
Mu Feng indeed thought so.
"Isn't that right?"
"Of course that's wrong!" Feng's father said angrily. "How can you be so self-righteous?! If it were Xiao Que raising a child, would you agree to Mu Shaowu being with him and only raising this one child in the future?"
Mu Feng: "You talk as if you know nothing about Mu Zheng's marriage."
Phoenix's father: !!!
Feng's father instantly realized that Mu Zheng's situation back then was indeed like that; the woman had a child, and Mu Feng really did watch them get married.
Feng's father: "I heard that the child is actually Mu Zheng's child, is that right?"
"Mm," Mu Feng replied.
"How did it get like this?" Feng's father asked, puzzled.
Mu Feng: ...Of course it's because his son and daughter-in-law both love you but can't say it out loud!
Mu Feng didn't want to bring up this upsetting matter. "Is your focus right now on my eldest son's family situation?"
Father: "Didn't you say that?!"
"So you're just going to follow my lead? Where's your own opinion?"
Phoenix's father: ...
Feng's father felt that he really didn't want such in-laws!
"Anyway, I don't approve of them being together."
"Whatever you want," Mu Feng said indifferently, "but when you're trying to break up the couple, remember to focus on hitting your son, and don't accidentally hurt my son."
Phoenix's father: ...
"Can't you stand with me and break them up together?"
That was his real reason for making that phone call.
Mu Feng felt it was unnecessary.
"Love and marriage are the hardest things to interfere with. You've been young once, and you know that if you push someone you like, the more you pressure them, the less willing they are to let go; if you try to match someone they don't like, the more annoyed they become. It's better to let them develop on their own. If they're meant to talk, they'll talk; if they're meant to break up, they'll break up. Those who are meant to be together will naturally be together, and those who aren't will naturally break up."
“I argued with Mu Zheng when he got married, but as it turns out, he’s been doing quite well since then. In fact, if he hadn’t gotten married, I don’t know who my grandson would be living with now.”
"So in my family, apart from Shaoting, I let everyone else have their own love and marriage. Let them like whatever they want. Whether I support them or not, I just express my opinion. If they are willing to listen to me, that's naturally the best. If not, they've already moved out after getting married anyway, so I won't have to see them or worry about them."
Phoenix's father: ...
"And let me be realistic," Mu Feng said, "Even if you let Feng Que and Shao Wu break up, what then? What if he brings you back someone who has nothing to offer next time? Can you accept that? You'll only be more frustrated. At that point, you'll wish he would come back to Shao Wu."
“Count for yourself, how many people are as good as Shaowu in terms of conditions? How many of them are still single? Of the rest, how many of them could be liked by your son, and happen to like your son in return?”
"Go ahead and count them."
Phoenix's father: !!!
The father suddenly had a revelation.
He was so preoccupied with being upset that Feng Que, that troublesome girl, had found a boyfriend.
However, they overlooked the fact that if his son really had to find a partner among men in the future, then Mu Shaowu would be the perfect match!
If Mu Shaowu were a girl, would he be so worried that he couldn't sleep and called Mu Feng right now?
Of course not!
He would only smile and exchange pleasantries with Mu Feng, saying, "I never thought we'd become in-laws one day."
After all, Mu Shaowu's qualifications are undeniable; both his personal qualities and family background are top-notch.
In other words, Mu Shaowu is a boy, so he couldn't accept his son being with a man, which is why he wanted to break them up.
After hanging up the phone, Feng's father felt conflicted.
Should we fight these mandarin ducks or not?
Let's beat him up. What if his son can't change his sexual orientation? In the future, the person he finds will most likely not be as good as Mu Shaowu!
If we don't fight, will he really have to accept Mu Shaowu as his daughter-in-law?
Just as he was struggling with this, he heard his wife laugh happily.
When Feng's father turned around, he saw his wife holding her phone, looking at it and laughing.
Feng's father: "...I'm so worried, and you're still in the mood to look at your phone? And you're even laughing? Your son is practically finding you a son-in-law, and you can still laugh?!"
Feng's mother looked up at him and said, "I'm looking at Xiao Xi."
"Xiao Xi?"
"That son of Shaowu, Ye Qingxi."
Phoenix's father: "...You call me so affectionately."
"Otherwise, what are we supposed to do? When we see Xiaoxi in the future, are we supposed to call him by his full name?"
Phoenix's father: ? ? ? !!!
"No, you're just accepting it like that?"
“Whether we accept it or not, it doesn’t stop us from getting to know the child first,” Madam Feng argued. “Think about it, if this is true, then Xiao Xi will be our grandson in the future. Shouldn’t we know in advance what our future grandson looks like, what his personality is, and what he likes?”
"If this is fake, we should learn more about it. Only by knowing ourselves and our enemy can we win every battle!"
Feng's father: ...That seems to make sense.
"How is the child?" Feng's father asked somewhat awkwardly.
"You know what, this child is really quite cute. He's good-looking, smart, and most importantly, he has a good personality. I think he and Xiao Que will get along well."
"Really?" Feng's father leaned closer curiously.
Feng's mother moved her phone closer to him and watched Ye Qingxi's clips from the variety show with him.
When he saw Ye Qingxi exploring the cave, searching for treasure, and answering questions, Feng's father nodded slightly. Not bad, she's very good with numbers.
When he saw Ye Qingxi running her business as a small boss and designing set menus, Feng's father nodded slightly. Not bad, she has a good business sense.
Seeing Ye Qingxi and Mu Shaowu's warm and sweet daily life, Feng's father continued to nod, "Not bad, their personalities are indeed very good."
When Ye Qingxi said without hesitation in front of the camera that he loved his father, grandfather, uncle, aunt and uncle the most, Feng's father stopped nodding!
So many people like this!
His heart is so small, yet it already holds so many people. How could it possibly hold a family of three?!
Besides, why would she like Mu Feng?!
The father was not satisfied!
Who's a kind soul who likes Mu Feng?!
Ye Qingxi had no idea that during the time he was going to and from school normally, his father had secretly become someone else's fake boyfriend and had even met the other person's parents.
Not only that, the other party's parents have even started watching his clips and are looking forward to meeting him during the Chinese New Year this year.
At that moment, he was listening to Zhong Yan and the others talk about where they planned to go for the winter vacation.
“My dad said he’d take me abroad,” Zhong Yan said. “It’s warmer overseas, perfect for a trip.”
“Then I’ll go too,” Kang Cong immediately said.
Zhong Yan nodded, then looked at Ye Qingxi, "Xiaoxi, are you coming?"
"I can't go, I have to go to film a movie with my dad," Ye Qingxi said.
"Filming?!" Zhong Yan exclaimed in shock. "Why are you going to film a movie?!"
"I auditioned for a role before, and I was successful, so I can go."
"What is an audition?" Kang Cong scratched his head, not quite understanding.
"It means I'm going to play that role and perform for the director," Ye Qingxi explained.
"Wow~ So Xiaoxi, you're going to be on TV again?"
“It’s not television, it’s a movie,” Ye Qingxi said.
"When can we see it?" Zhong Yan asked curiously.
"I don't know either," Ye Qingxi said. "I'll invite you to see it when it's released."
"Okay, okay!" Zhong Yan said happily.
"Is making movies fun? I've never seen anyone else make a movie before." Kang Cong tilted his head and looked at Ye Qingxi with a puzzled expression.
Ye Qingxi thought it was fine as it was.
He's gotten so used to his job that he can no longer objectively judge whether it's fun or not.
"You can come see me after you return from your trip abroad, and then you'll be able to watch me make a movie," Ye Qingxi suggested.
Kang Cong nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, we'll go together then."
“Mm,” Zhong Yan echoed.
Pei Liang was also a little curious, so he responded.
"So, Xiaoxi, you're not coming abroad with us?" Zhong Yan asked, confirming.
Ye Qingxi nodded.
Zhong Yan felt a little regretful.
"And what about you?" he asked Pei Liang.
“I’m not going either,” Pei Liang said proudly. “I’ve signed up for English and harmonica classes.”
Zhong Yan: !!!
Kang Cong: !!!
Ye Qingxi: !!
Ye Qingxi looked at her best friend in shock, and said, "You, my friend, you are the real King of Scrolls!"
"I'll go see Xiaoxi with you two when you get back," Pei Liang said, wagging her tail.
Zhong Yan and Kang Cong: ...
I instantly didn't want to go with him anymore!
Seriously!
Thank goodness he didn't go abroad with them, otherwise, if the parents started talking about it, wouldn't the two of them be in big trouble?!
So why do they have a friend like Pei Liang?!
Not long after the group made their agreement, the final exams arrived.
Ye Qingxi consistently secured first place, while Pei Liang continued to hold his second-place position.
Ye Qingxi is on vacation, and Feng Que is preparing to start filming.
Mu Shaowu helped Ye Qingxi pack his luggage and asked him, "Is there anything else you need to bring?"
Ye Qingxi shook her head, "Dad, what about you? Did you bring everything you needed to?"
"Don't worry, I brought them all," Mu Shaowu said with a smile.
"Shall we set off tomorrow?"
"Mm." Mu Shaowu nodded.
He looked at his son and suddenly felt a sense of wonder.
One day, he was able to act in a play with his own son.
Mu Shaowu had never dreamed of anything so beautiful.
Ye Qingxi was just as happy as he was.
He's going to act in a movie with his dad!
Yay!
