FV: Chapter 297

It was almost midnight when Ji Yuxiao came back in the evening.

In the dead of night, the lazy crescent moon hung high above the branches, shining on him as he returned.

Ji Yuxiao got out of the car. He looked at the living room lights that were still on and guessed that Lin Luoqing had left the lights on for him.

He had called Lin Luoqing and mentioned not to wait for him. Lin Luoqing should’ve gone to bed. He was just afraid Ji Yuxiao would be lonely when he returned and left the lights on.

Ji Yuxiao thought of this and his eyes softened. He walked across the yard to the door, opened it and unexpectedly saw Lin Luoqing sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Ji Yuxiao couldn’t help being stunned for a moment. He saw Lin Luoqing turn around and ask him with a smile, “Have you eaten?”

“I’ve eaten.” Then Ji Yuxiao wondered, “Why are you here?”

Ji Yuxiao put down the keys and changed his shoes. Then he walked to Lin Luoqing. “Didn’t I say that you didn’t have to wait for me? You can rest in the bedroom.”

Lin Luoqing shook his phone. “I’m surfing the Internet and waiting for you.”

JI Yuxiao didn’t believe him, so he walked over and hugged the other person.

He took Lin Luoqing into his arms, grabbed a mochi from the white porcelain plate on the coffee table and fed it to Lin Luoqing’s mouth. He deliberately said, “Is that so? You have been surfing the Internet until now. It seems that today’s Internet is very lively.”

“Of course. The hot search is exploding today,” Lin Luoqing took a bite of the mochi in Ji Yuxiao’s hand.

Ji Yuxiao hadn’t expected that there really would be something big. He asked, “What’s the matter?”

He was busy all day and didn’t have time to read Weibo. He naturally didn’t know what Lin Luoqing was talking about.

“Is it social news from your entertainment industry?”

“Of course, it is from the entertainment industry.” Lin Luoqing looked at him. “Don’t you know him?”

“Oh?” Ji Yuxiao became a bit more interested. “Is it possible that Su Tong is in a relationship?”

“It is much more exciting than that.”

Ji Yuxiao was surprised. “Is it more exciting than this? Then Su Tong got the other person pregnant out of marriage and they now have a child?”:

Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…No, how much hatred do you have with Su Tong? It is even a pregnancy without marriage!’

It was good that Su Tong fans didn’t know this or Ji Yuxiao would be blackened by them tonight!

“It is related to a child, but not Su Tong’s child.”

“Whose is it? Shi Zheng? It can’t be Yu Jiayou. I don’t think Yu Jiayou will have a child in the short term.”

Then Brother Zheng could have it?!

This was too much of a double standard.

Lin Luoqing said calmly, “It isn’t Brother Zheng. It is Lin Luoqing who exposed that he has two children.”

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

Ji Yuxiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“What is with your expression? I’m serious.” Lin Luoqing sat up. “I really exposed myself.”

Ji Yuxiao, “!!!”

“Really?”

“The hot search is the proof.”

Ji Yuxiao was incredulous, “Just today?”

Lin Luoqing nodded. “Just today.”

“Why?” Ji Yuxiao was puzzled. “Why did you suddenly expose yourself?”

Lin Luoqing sighed. “Isn’t it just a coincidence? I originally wanted to go to sleep for a bit today before Xiao Yu and Fei Fei came home from school. Then Wu Xinyuan reminded me that I had a live broadcast. I went to do the live broadcast and didn’t pay attention to the time. Xiao Yu and Fei Fei came back and Aunt Zhang told them I was home. Xiao Yu came to me excitedly and said, ‘Dad, you are back.’ I was instantly exposed.”

Ji Yuxiao thought, ‘Ah, this…’

“Then your fans didn’t blow up?”

“The fans are fine. After all, the two of us can’t give birth. They know that we must’ve adopted and it was just a matter of time. It isn’t that they can’t accept the existence of a child. They just hadn’t expected it to be so soon. Alas, you didn’t see the barrage at the time. They kept asking questions about my children. I thought about it later and simply revealed it. However, I only said that we have two children. Nothing else.”

Ji Yuxiao heard this and looked at him with a bit of worry. “Will this have an impact on you in the future?”

“It won’t affect much. Don’t worry.” Lin Luoqing knew what he was worried about and took the initiative to explain. “Firstly, the fans have almost accepted it. Secondly, Yu Jiayou and Xingyi still have two works booked. Director Li also wants to cooperate with me. It should be fine.”

“That’s good.” Ji Yuxiao felt relieved.

After all, Lin Luoqing had a special job and finally reached his current position. Ji Yuxiao didn’t want Lin Luoqing’s career to be affected by these sudden, uncontrollable factors.

“I’m just telling you so you can be mentally prepared. Don’t be surprised if others talk about this in the future,” Lin Luoqing told him very calmly.

“Okay.” Ji Yuxiao hugged him again. “As long as it doesn’t affect you. I’m worried about affecting your career.”

“No.” Lin Luoqing looked at him with a smile. “I might have a lot of traffic but my acting skills are very good. Don’t worry.”

Ji Yuxiao nodded and kissed him on the lips.

Lin Luoqing raised his chin and kissed him in a lingering manner.

Lin Luoqing had exposed that he had two children but he didn’t take this matter seriously. However, some people took it seriously and it was a top priority.

In just one day, Wu Xinyuan received five calls from variety shows with children. It ranged from popular variety shows to nameless variety shows. All of them offered sky-high salaries. They just asked Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao to bring the two children over.

The directors of the shows were very sincere and the phone calls were more punctual than three meals a day. If they didn’t know where Wu Xinyuan’s home was, they would’ve gone there to show the sincerity of their program.

Wu Xinyuan thought, ‘…It isn’t necessary, it isn’t necessary. It isn’t a question of sincerity. It is a matter of children being involved. Lin Luoqing basically won’t agree.’

He relayed this matter to Lin Luoqing with some helplessness before asking, “Do you have any idea of bringing Fei Fei and Xiao Yu to a variety show?”

Of course, Lin Luoqing didn’t think so. “I don’t think it is necessary.”

Wu Xinyuan guessed this. “Then I will continue to reject them.”

“Why do you say continue?”

“Of course, it is because I have rejected them several times.” Wu Xinyuan sighed. “But they are very persistent and ask me to give them a chance every day. If they didn’t know my home address, they should’ve sent me a 16-page handwritten letter.”

Lin Luoqing chuckled. “Is it so exaggerated?”

“Don’t you know how popular the variety show that you and Ji Yuxiao were in at the time? Since ‘Let’s Fall in Love Together’ became a phenomenon-level variety show, advertisers have continued to increase and the ratings have continued to soar. The romance variety shows that didn’t manage to invite you cried enough to form the Pacific Ocean. Now you suddenly revealed that you have two children and the whole Internet is discussing it. If you are invited, your two children will be exposed and the family of four will make its debut. There is this ready-made gimmick? Won’t the traffic be good?”

‘This is indeed the case’, Lin Luoqing thought. Then he replied, “I don’t plan to expose Fei Fei and Xiao Yu for the time being. Forget it for now.”

“Okay.” Wu Xinyuan didn’t persuade him.

When it came to children, he was a father and he also understood Lin Luoqing’s intentions. So no matter what decision Lin Luoqing made, he would support it.

Lin Luoqing took the opportunity to tell Ji Yuxiao about this matter while having dinner in the evening. “I didn’t expect those program teams to be so sharp. I just revealed that I have children and the next second, they contacted Wu Xinyuan. Each one is more sincere than the other. Tsk tsk, it isn’t easy to do shows these days.”

“Then you agreed?”

“Of course not.” Lin Luoqing smiled. “I don’t want to let Fei Fei and Xiao Yu record a show. How hard is it?”

He put a Coca-Cola chicken wing into Lin Fei’s bowl and then gave one to Ji Leyu. He said with a smile, “Our Xiao Yu is still a baby. It is more appropriate to go to school, right?”

Ji Leyu, “???”

Ji Leyu silently shook his head. What was the meaning of going to school? There was no reason to go to school except to be with Lin Fei.

“What is recording a program?” He asked Lin Luoqing.

“It is a type of job for Dad,” Lin Luoqing explained to him. “It is to play some games and do things that others ask you to do.”

Ji Leyu’s eyes lit up. “Then I can record the show.”

Lin Luoqing was confused. “Huh?”

“I can play games.” Ji Leyu tilted his head and laughed. “I can also accompany Dad to work.”

He finished speaking and thought again. “I can also earn money from work. I can give you pocket money.”

Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…Ah, this. Baby, aren’t you too positive?’

Lin Fei also dropped his chopsticks when he heard this. He looked at Lin Luoqing and asked him, “Is there a salary?”

Lin Luoqing thought, ‘???? Is this your focus?’

“Of course, there is a salary, but …” Lin Luoqing looked at the two of them. “The two of you are still too young.”

He hesitated, “Do you really want to record a show?”

Ji Leyu nodded.

Lin Fei thought for a while and asked him, “Is the winter vacation okay?”

It was definitely possible. As far as the director of the program group was concerned, forget the winter vacation. They would probably be willing to wait for the summer vacation.

It was just that…

“If you record the show, you have to be followed by cameras all the time. You know the camera, right? It is the machine that Uncle Li pointed at you when you filmed last time. Everything you say and do will be recorded.”

Lin Fei calmly said, “Oh.”

Then he had to watch Ji Leyu, he thought. He couldn’t let Ji Leyu be filmed doing bad things.

Ji Leyu didn’t care. “Will it always follow us?”

“Yes, when we are at work,” Lin Luoqing replied. “It will take around three or four days.”

“Oh.” Ji Leyu nodded.

He just had to pretend for three or four days. It was very simple.

“It’s okay, Dad. I’m not afraid.”

Lin Luoqing, “……”

Lin Luoqing saw his eager expression. “Do you really want to record it?”

Ji Leyu nodded.

It was great to not be able to go to school, to be with Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao and to make money.

“Is Father going with us too?”

“If you and your brother want to go, he will naturally go as well.”

“Okay.” Ji Leyu cheered. “It is our family of four working together. We will all accompany Dad to go to work~”

Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…Thank you so much!’

No, he looked at the two children in front of him. “It is very hard to record variety shows. You have to wake up early and the place you will live in probably isn’t good. Are you willing to do this?”

Lin Fei didn’t care. He just wanted to make money. “In any case, it is just three or four days.”

“If you want to record, it should take six or second recording sessions. This adds up to around 20 days.”

Lin Fei’s thinking was sharp. “It should be higher than my salary for making a movie, right?”

He had only shot a movie for a few days. This time, it would take around 20 days. The longer the time, the higher the salary, right?

Lin Luoqing, “???”

Lin Luoqing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This person really deserved to be a future capitalist. He only cared about money.

Ji Yuxiao listened to the conversation between the father and sons and laughed.

“Okay.” He looked at Lin Luoqing. “Don’t try to persuade the two of them. I see that they really want to accompany you to record a variety show. Then tell Wu Xinyuan that you agree. Pick the winter vacation to record. Once the time comes, I will free up time. Our family of four can use it as a trip.”

Lin Luoqing, “???”

“Do you want to as well?”

“If Fei Fei and Xiao Yu want to record it, then record it.” Ji Yuxiao’s tone was gentle. “The two of them have to go to school nine months a year and we are also busy. We don’t have much time to take them out to play. It is good to take advantage of this opportunity to go out to play. It isn’t bad.”

Ji Leyu nodded frantically. “Yes.”

“Even if the show explodes, it is almost the reappearance of the scene of ‘All the Way to the West.’ Fei Fei and Xiao Yu weren’t affected at that time. There should be nothing now. No matter how bad it is, there is still me. Is there anything that money can’t solve?”

Lin Luoqing looked at him. “You are very domineering at this time.”

Ji Yuxiao smiled. “Otherwise, how else can I be worthy of being in a popular work?”

Lin Luoqing couldn’t help laughing. “Okay.”

He looked at the father and two sons in front of him. “Since the three of you are willing, I will listen to you. I will choose a variety show to record together.”

“Okay,” Ji Leyu said happily.

Lin Luoqing smiled and ruffled his hair. “Eat quickly. The chicken wings will be cold soon.”

Ji Leyu nodded and obediently lowered his head to eat chicken wings.

Lin Fei also lowered his head and went to eat the food in the bowl.

Wu Xinyuan never thought that when he went to sleep and woke up the next day, Lin Luoqing would change his words and say he was willing to record a variety show.

“Why are you willing again?”

“There is no way. Your boss, your future little boss and your future little boss’ brother all want to record it. It is three to one and they won.”

Wu Xinyuan was shocked. “Fei Fei also wants to record it?”

He could understand Ji Yuxiao wanted to record it. He probably wanted to accompany Lin Luoqing and show affection. He could almost guess why Ji Leyu wanted to record it. It was probably just for fun. But how could Lin Fei want to record it?”

This child was a competitive king who read books or was on the way to reading every day. There was simply no way for children of the same age to survive. This variety show wasn’t a studying variety show but he was actually willing to do it?

“Fei Fei is willing to give other children a way to live?”

Lin Luoqing laughed. Was his family’s child so cruel?

He smiled, “Of course. There is something more meaningful to him than reading books.”

Wu Xinyuan couldn’t think of it. “I don’t believe there is such a thing.”

“Of course there is.”

“For example?” Wu Xinyuan asked him.

“For example, giving me pocket money,” Lin Luoqing said with a smile. “So remember to give Fei Fei a good salary. Why does our little Fei Fei always take time out of his busy schedule? Isn’t it just to give pocket money to his dear fathers? If the money is too little, it is a waste of our Xiao Fei’s time.”

Wu Xinyuan, “!!!”

Wu Xinyuan instantly felt that he had been stuffed with a mouth full of showing off.

Why did this angel descend to Earth and land precisely next to Lin Luoqing?! Why was there such a big difference between children?

Wu Xinyuan looked at his son, who was sitting on the sofa and watching TV. He thought, ‘Look at this. You only know how to watch TV. Can’t you be considerate of your hard-working old father?’

Hurry up and learn!!!
