FV: Chapter 164

Ji Yuxiao swiped the room card and heard footsteps. The next second, Ji Leyu happily appeared in front of them.

“Dad,” he shouted excitedly and rushed toward Lin Luoqing.

Lin Luoqing hugged him, picked him up and spun him around.

Ji Leyu giggled, hugged his neck and tilted his head to look at Lin Luoqing. “Dad, are you done with work?”

“I’m done for today but I will be busy tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.”

Ji Leyu flattened his mouth. “Then you can’t go home yet.”

“Yes.” Lin Luoqing sighed.

Ji Leyu also sighed.

Luo Jia came out of the bedroom and saw the scene of the big and small person sighing. He asked with a smile, “Why are you sighing? Haven’t you been nagging me about when your dad would come back? Now that he is back, shouldn’t you be happy?”

Ji Leyu thought this was indeed the case and smiled again.

“Okay, you have reunited as a family of four. I’m going out.”

“You won’t eat with us?” Ji Yuxiao asked him.

“Another day, not today.”

He finished speaking and walked toward the door.

Seeing this, Xiao Li also followed him. In an instant, there were only Lin Luoqing, Ji Yuxiao and Ji Leyu were left in the room.

Lin Luoqing put Ji Leyu on the ground and asked him, “Where is your brother?”

“Inside the room.” Ji Leyu pointed to the room he ran out of.

Lin Luoqing nodded, walked over and opened the door. He could see Lin Fei writing something at the large desk.

He leaned in curiously and found that what Lin Fei was answering didn’t seem like math problems from his year. It seemed to be the second or third grade.

This was no longer called a review, right?

It must be self-study…

Really amazing!

“Are you off work?” Lin Fei finished calculating the answers. He put down his pen and turned to look at Lin Luoqing.

Lin Luoqing let out a ‘hmm’ and touched his head. “Why did you start answering these questions? This isn’t what you are learning this semester, right?”

“The math teacher asked me to do it,” Lin Fei answered while flipping toward the answers. He found that he got it correct but he wasn’t very happy. He just calmly took a pen and drew a horizontal line under the serial number of the question, indicating that he had done this.

“Then it seems like the math teacher values you.” Lin Luoqing sighed. Otherwise, the teacher wouldn’t have asked him to do such hard questions.

It was estimated that the teacher wanted to test him and see what level he was at now.

Lin Fei didn’t quite understand. “What does value mean?”

“It means to place importance on you, care about you and feel that you are very capable and excellent.”

Now Lin Fei understood but he didn’t care. In any case, he was just a ruthless problem solver. If the teacher gave him a question then he would do it. If the teacher didn’t give him a question, he would read books or do other questions by himself.

Whether it was important or not had nothing to do with him.

“Are you hungry?” Lin Luoqing saw that he had answered a long page of questions. “Let’s go. Rest for a while and eat some food.”

Lin Fei stood up and asked him, “Are you going back to work in a while?”

“No.” Lin Luoqing touched his head. “I’ve finished work for the day. I won’t go until tomorrow morning. Are you happy?”

Lin Fei, “……”

Lin Fei didn’t speak and walked toward the door.

Lin Luoqing saw his awkward little appearance and giggled. He picked up Lin Fei from behind and deliberately teased him, “Are you not happy? I was very happy at the thought that I could finally see you. But you don’t want to see me?”

Lin Fei, “……”

Lin Luoqing frowned and looked aggrieved.

Lin Fei, “……”

Lin Fei had to reply, “I’m happy.”

“Really?”

Lin Fei nodded.

“Then Fei Fei has to smile.”

Lin Fei, “……”

“Okay, if Fei Fei doesn’t want to smile then you don’t have to smile. I will smile.”

Lin Luoqing laughed after saying this.

Lin Fei saw it and for some reason, he thought Lin Luoqing was a bit cute like this. He almost raised the corners of his taut mouth.

Soon, he realized something and let out a small ‘hum.’ He continued to have a paralyzed little face while the corners of his mouth were stretched out straight.

Lin Luoqing found him really cute. He thought that Lin Fei was cute and lovely, so he rubbed against Lin Fei’s forehead and carried him out.

The family of four sat on the sofa together. Lin Luoqing asked the two children what they wanted to eat. He ordered it for them before ordering the dishes for him and Ji Yuxiao.

Ji Leyu had always been clingy and lively. He hadn’t seen Lin Luoqing for a long time so he talked a lot.

Lin Luoqing didn’t feel annoyed. He listened cooperatively and spoke a few words of agreement from time to time. It made Ji Leyu very happy.

“Dad, when is your birthday?” He suddenly asked. “I don’t even know your birthday.”

Lin Fei heard this and immediately turned to look at him.

He knew his uncle’s birthday but he didn’t know Lin Luoqing’s birthday.

Lin Luoqing didn’t think much of it and naturally replied, “March 25th.”

“Isn’t that this month?” Ji Leyu was surprised.

“Yes.” Lin Luoqing touched his head.

Ji Yuxiao was secretly curious. He still remembered that Lin Luoqing’s birthday on his ID card was in May. How could it be March 25th? Even if it was a typo, the difference of two months was too great, right?

But it wasn’t a big deal. There were many people with careless parents who wrote the wrong birthday or name when registering. Lin Luoqing might be the same.

That wasn’t the point. The point was what gift should he give to Lin Luoqing?

He thought about it for a while but couldn’t think of it. Then he came up with a surprise.

He went for an examination yesterday and the doctor said that his condition was very good. Since his condition in the examinations had continued to improve and his physical condition was stable, he could try to stand up slowly first. Then he could start rehabilitation and practice walking.

For this reason, Ji Yuxiao specially chose an empty room on the third floor of the villa as a rehabilitation room.

By the time it was Lin Luoqing’s birthday, he might not be able to walk but he should be able to stand.

He thought of this and looked forward to Lin Luoqing’s expression after seeing it.

He must be very happy, happier than him. After all, Lin Luoqing always cared more about his body than him.

Lin Fei was also thinking about this. Lin Luoqing’s birthday was coming and he should prepare a gift for Lin Luoqing. But what should he prepare?

“Dad, will you be home by then?” Ji Leyu was concerned. “Will you celebrate your birthday with us? I want to eat cake with you.”

“Yes.” Lin Luoqing pinched his face. He would finish around the 22nd so he could make it in time.

“I’ll give you the biggest piece of cake then.”

Ji Leyu shook his head. “That’s not okay. It is your birthday. You naturally have to eat the biggest piece.”

He was very humble at this time. “You eat the biggest one, Father eats the second biggest and then Brother.”

“I’ll just eat the smallest~”

Ji Yuxiao clicked his tongue. “So well-behaved?”

Ji Leyu nodded repeatedly. “Oh yes, I’m really well-behaved.”

Lin Fei, “……”

Ji Yuxiao smiled and felt that he was really well-behaved and cute.

Lin Luoqing stared at him with a loving and gentle face. Some people laughed at him for being a stupid dad but this person also wasn’t smart! Silly father!

Two silly fathers and two smart children had dinner together and watched an animated movie before getting ready for bed.

The moment Ji Leyu heard they were going to sleep, he took the initiative to pull Lin Fei back a step. “Dad, the two of you sleep together. You haven’t seen each other for a long time and there must be a lot to whisper. My brother and I won’t bother you.”

Lin Luoqing smiled. “Don’t you and I have things to whisper about?”

“I’ll talk to you when you come back~” Ji Leyu spoke in a spoiled manner.

Lin Luoqing nodded. “Yes. Then you and your brother can whisper together.”

Ji Leyu nodded like a chicken pecking rice. He pulled Lin Fei back to their bedroom.

He sat on the bed, supported his little face and praised himself. “I am really a caring and sensible baby. Alas, how can there be such a well-behaved and cute child as me in the world?”

Lin Fei thought, ‘…What misunderstanding do you have about yourself?’

He reminded, “You haven’t finished your math homework yet.”

Ji Leyu, “……”

Ji Leyu instantly puffed up his face. “You are really a cruel and ruthless brother!”

Lin Fei nodded and didn’t deny it. “Hurry up.”

Ji Leyu, “???!!!”

Why was he still nodding?

Was he still proud?!

How could there be such a terrible and cold-blooded brother in the world?

Ji Leyu reluctantly stood up. He followed Lin Fei to the desk and started to do his homework.

Lin Luoqing looked at Ji Yuxiao and then the bed. Finally, he headed toward the bathroom. “I’m going to take a bath.”

“Okay,” Ji Yuxiao responded.

Lin Luoqing ran in. Then he quietly poked his head out again. “Aren’t you coming with me?”

“Do you want me to join you?”

“Of course not.” Lin Luoqing refused to admit it.

“Then I will follow your opinion.”

Lin Luoqing, “……”

Lin Luoqing snorted angrily before turning around and walking inside.

He was undressing when he heard movement behind him. Lin Luoqing turned around and saw that Ji Yuxiao had pushed his wheelchair inside and was staring at him.

“What are you looking at?”

“I’m looking at my wife.” Ji Yuxiao was straightforward. “It will be a problem if I don’t look at you and look at others, right?”

“I thought you weren’t going to wash with me? What are you doing in here?”

“Of course, it is to help you wash. I wonder if I have the honor to help CEO Lin change clothes and wash.”

Lin Luoqing raised his chin and was full of ambition. “Since you have said so, I will reluctantly grant you this honor. If you don’t do a good job, I will throw you out.”

Once he finished speaking, he couldn’t help laughing. He threw his clothes into Ji Yuxiao’s arms and got into the bathtub.

Ji Yuxiao pushed the wheelchair to the front of the bathtub. He really didn’t enter the bath. He helped Lin Luoqing to take a bath and asked while washing, “am I doing a good job? Is this right? Is the strength appropriate? CEO, do you like it gentle or not? CEO Lin, tell me.”

Lin Luoqing, “……”

Lin Luoqing became angry. “You shut up!”

He wasn’t at all serious when taking a good bath!

“I don’t want you to serve me any longer.” Lin Luoqing reached out to push away his hand. Ji Yuxiao didn’t like it and grabbed his waist, tickling his sensitive flesh.

Lin Luoqing was tickled by him and laughed. He pushed this person away and laughed while splashing him with water.

The two of them quarreled for a while. In the end, it was Ji Yuxiao who conceded first and looked at his clothes. “Look what happened, I’m completely wet.”

Lin Luoqing lay on the edge of the bathtub, his face red with laughter. “It is what you deserve. Who told you to bully me?”

“What type of bullying is this? Do you know what real bullying looks like?”

Lin Luoqing’s face turned redder. Then he poked this person’s neck and asked him, “What does it look like?”

Ji Yuxiao looked at him slowly, sweeping over his skin little by little. His eyes were too aggressive and Lin Luoqing couldn’t bear it. He raised a hand and splashed him. “Don’t look at me.”

“If I don’t look at you, who should I look at? Look at other people?”

“Then don’t look at me that way.”

“Okay,” Ji Yuxiao said. He took off his clothes and used his strength to pull himself into the bathtub.

Lin Luoqing moved back a bit and his mouth was unforgiving. “What are you doing here? Didn’t you say that we wouldn’t wash together?”

“You wet my clothes like this. Isn’t it for me to take off my clothes and come in to accompany you?”

“No,” Lin Luoqing refused to admit it.

Ji Yuxiao hugged him tightly. “You have a stubborn mouth.”

Lin Luoqing said arrogantly, “You are the one with a stubborn mouth.”

Ji Yuxiao lowered his head and kissed him on the lips. “It is just right. We are a natural couple.”

“Who is a couple with you?”

“Okay, we aren’t born to be a couple.” Ji Yuxiao followed his words.

Lin Luoqing raised a hand and pinched him.

Ji Yuxiao laughed. He grabbed this person’s hand and hugged him tightly. “I am teasing you.”

He asked, “Why are you so fun to tease?”

Lin Luoqing snorted and turned his head to ignore him.

Ji Yuxiao hugged him and said softly, “Hey, isn’t it written on your ID card that your birthday is in May? Was it wrongly written?”

Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…This is awkward.’

He nodded and said, “Yes, my dad remembered it incorrectly.”

Ji Yuxiao was instantly even more dissatisfied with Father Lin. “He can even remember your birthday incorrectly. He is really irresponsible.”

“That’s right.” Lin Luoqing immediately agreed.

In any case, Father Lin wasn’t a good thing so let him carry the blame. In any case, his father loved him so much and he believed his father would be able to understand his good son!

The filial son Lin Luoqing didn’t feel any guilt at all.

Father Lin sneezed. He picked up his phone to look at it, but Ji Yuxiao still hadn’t replied to him.

What happened? Ji Yuxiao definitely mentioned introducing a project to him. Why hadn’t there been any movement until now? His son-in-law wasn’t hanging him on purpose, right?

Father Lin decided to call Lin Luoqing in two days to urge him. Otherwise, it would be too irritating to keep thinking about it.

Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao had enough of playing. They started washing up seriously and returned to the bed after washing.

Ji Yuxiao hugged Lin Luoqing. He turned off the light and asked him, “What do you want for a birthday present?”

“Anything is fine. I like whatever you give.” He leaned against Ji Yuxiao.

Ji Yuxiao touched his face. He thought that he should give Lin Luoqing the position of CEO of Boyuan or it should be at least a director or something.

“Then come home early. I’ll have a surprise for you,” he said.

Lin Luoqing was curious. “What surprise?”

“You will know when the time comes.”

“Okay.” Lin Luoqing didn’t ask much.

It was a surprise. It had to be a bit mysterious.

He hugged Ji Yuxiao tightly and fell asleep leaning against him.

Ji Yuxiao finally had a rare and peaceful good night’s sleep.

Early the next morning, Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao were reluctant to wake up the two children and they prepared to leave silently.

However, Lin Fei usually woke up early and walked out when he heard the movement.

“Goodbye,” he whispered to Lin Luoqing in a soft voice. Once he finished speaking, he seemed to feel that this sentence wasn’t good and he said again, “Goodbye, Dad.”

Lin Luoqing’s heart softened immediately.

He walked over and kissed Lin Fei’s soft cheek.

“Dad will be back in the evening.”
