FV: Chapter 177
[I don’t know.] Wu Xinyuan replied to him. [If you don’t know this as his wife, how would I know?]
Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…Yes, this makes sense.’
He looked at his Weibo group and thought to himself, ‘Who is he?’
Lin Luoqing didn’t put in much effort. He quickly thought of something and messaged Xiao Wang, who was responsible for managing the Weibo group. [Who is the richest one in the group? Who spends the most money on me? Who is the most unhappy about me being pulled into CPs?]
Xiao Wang replied quickly: [It is naturally the bigshot Yunxiao Yuji!]
Lin Luoqing listened to this name and secretly thought, ‘How can this not be Ji Yuxiao? All three pronunciations of Ji, Yu, Xiao are repeated!’
He quickly clicked on Yunxiao Yuji’s Weibo and saw that every Weibo post of this person was a forward of his posts.
[Wow, cute, Qingqing is so cute!]
[This Qingqing is also not bad. So handsome!]
[Help Qingqing rise up!]
[Qingqing is a unique beauty!]
[Qingqing, come to my bowl!]
[I see how handsome Qingqing is. Qingqing should look like me.]
Lin Luoqing scrolled down all the way and found that the other person had set up the Weibo so that only the past half a year could be viewed. It was blank and it was only when ‘Peaches and Plums Don’t Speak’ aired in March that this person started posting on Weibo one after another.
Lin Luoqing checked the information of the Weibo and found that the gender of the other person was set as male and the address was this city. The birthday was different from Ji Yuxiao’s, but it might’ve been filled out blindly. So was this Ji Yuxiao?
He clicked on the other person’s Weibo profile picture and looked at it. It was a gray dark cloud.
Lin Luoqing, “……”
Was it really him?
[Have you seen this Yunxiao Yuji in real life?] He asked Xiao Wang.
[No, this bigshot doesn’t talk much. He just comes out when he is throwing money.]
Ah, this…
[Then how do you know he doesn’t like CPs the most?]
[Hahaha.] Xiao Wang laughed. [It is because Brother Lin has some CP videos. Every time someone in the group talks about it, he simply says, ‘Our Qingqing is beautiful alone. Not shipping, I’m not shipping any CP.’ One time, a video of you and Li Hanhai rose to the popular list of a certain station and he asked how to get this video removed. Is it okay to give money?]
Ah, this…
[It is amazing. Not long after he said this, this video was really removed from the popular list.]
Lin Luoqing: [??? So he really gave money?]
[No, everyone said that it is useless to give money, unless they have someone inside.]
Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…Understood. He probably looked for someone who works there.’
[This bigshot is really interesting. Sometimes, the group talks about how this person draws beautiful pictures and all the pictures she drew for XX go out of the circle. He was envious and would ask how he could let this artist draw pictures for you. Is it okay to give money?]
Ah, this…
[So did he give money?]
[I don’t know, but that girl did draw pictures for you later! There is also a video editing person too! Haven’t you noticed that you have a lot more fanart and videos recently? This is why there are many more fans who have entered the pit recently!]
…How can this not be Ji Yuxiao?
There couldn’t be a second fan who was so generous and didn’t allow others to ship him!
He silently clicked on Ji Yuxiao’s WeChat and decided to deceive him.
The moment Ji Yuxiao finished taking a bath, he heard his phone ringing. He picked it up and took a look. It was Lin Luoqing’s video call invitation.
Ji Yuxiao picked up and heard Lin Luoqing ask him, “Yunxiao Yuji, that is your Weibo name right?”
Ji Yuxiao, “!!!”
F*k! How did he find out?
How did his identity get revealed so quickly?
Lin Luoqing saw his surprised reaction and knew that he had guessed correctly.
“It is really you. I guessed it was you.”
Ji Yuxiao’s identity was found out and he didn’t pretend. “Why?”
Didn’t he hide all his previous Weibo posts?
How could this person still guess?
Lin Luoqing smiled. “You didn’t even hide it. It was easy for me to guess. I just had to find the one who was most willing to spend money on me.”
“Apart from you, who else is willing to throw so much money on me? Even if there is someone, you are so jealous that you will definitely overwhelm the other person.”
Ji Yuxiao thought, ‘…Am I this type of person?’
Yes, he really was!
“You are pretty smart,” Ji Yuxiao said with a smile. “That’s right, it is me. What’s wrong with it? Yunxiao Yuji is me. Aren’t you satisfied?”
Lin Luoqing chuckled. “I’m satisfied, satisfied. There is nothing I’m not satisfied with, but it is better if you can save some money. What bigshot painter, what video editing god? I really don’t need it.”
“But that person really paints well,” Ji Yuxiao spoke sincerely. “It is much better than Xiao Yu’s painting.”
Lin Luoqing, “???”
Why did he still step on his own son?
Their Xiao Yu’s painting was the best!
Priceless!
“Xiao Yu is still a baby. Once he grows up, he will definitely draw well. Just wait. I’m going to buy a picture frame and hang Xiao Yu’s painting on the wall when I get back!”
‘…You really aren’t afraid of leaving a black history for your son!’
“Okay,” Ji Yuxiao said with a smile. “You can hang it up if you want. I will help you hang it, as long as you aren’t afraid that your son will be depressed after seeing it in the future.”
Lin Luoqing sneered. Ji Leyu? Depressed?
He would only make others depressed, okay?
This person didn’t know his little son that well!
The two people were talking when Lin Luoqing heard a knock on the door. He said goodbye to Ji Yuxiao, hung up the video call and opened the door.
It was Yao Momo and Li Hanhai.
“Didn’t we agree to have a late night meal together? I’ve already ordered.” Li Hanhai looked at him with a smile.
It was only then that Lin Luoqing remembered about this. He quickly answered, closed the door and walked out with Li Hanhai and the others.
It was almost 1 o’clock when he came back after eating. Lin Luoqing took a shower and went to sleep. The next morning, he went to the magazine office with Lin Hanhai and the others for a magazine shoot.
He took a few solo shots and a few double photos with Li Hanhai and Yao Momo respectively. Then he went to the editor for an interview and to start his own quick questions and answers.
The editor’s questions were all relatively simple. Lin Luoqing answered quickly and finished in a short time.
Then the editor gave him a formal interview and ended the shoot.
Once the interview was over, Lin Luoqing didn’t leave in a hurry. He waited for Li Hanhai, Yao Momo and the others to finish the interview. Everyone had a meal together before heading to the airport.
Ji Leyu was eating while thinking about how Lin Luoqing said he would be back tonight. He couldn’t help looking toward the door every few mouthfuls.
Ji Yuxiao tapped on the table and educated him, “Eat well.”
“Didn’t Dad say he will be back tonight?” Ji Leyu asked him. “Why aren’t you looking forward to it? Don’t you miss him?”
Ji Yuxiao smiled. “It’s definitely not as much as you. You are so eager that you can’t even eat a grain of rice without looking over every three minutes. You are missing him too much.”
Ji Leyu pouted. “You don’t miss Dad. I’ll tell him once he comes back.”
Ji Yuxiao let out a ‘yo’ sound. “You have learned to complain. You are amazing, Ji Leyu.”
Ji Leyu smiled, lowered his head and ate obediently.
He was eating when he heard the door opening. Ji Leyu looked back. Sure enough, It was Lin Luoqing. He quickly jumped off the chair and ran out.
“Dad!”
Lin Luoqing had just pulled his suitcase through the door. He heard this and laughed.
Ji Leyu ran to him, tilted his head and asked him sweetly, “Have you eaten? We are eating.”
Lin Luoqing really hadn’t eaten. The food on the plane wasn’t what he liked to eat, so he didn’t ask for it. He thought about eating after returning home.
Therefore, he smiled and picked up Ji Leyu. They entered the dining room together.
He put Ji Leyu on the chair and sat down next to Ji Yuxiao. “It just so happens that I haven’t eaten. Luckily, I caught up with your meal time.”
“Why didn’t you tell me in advance that you haven’t eaten?” Ji Yuxiao frowned. “If you had said it earlier, we would’ve waited for you to eat together.”
Lin Luoqing said with a smile, “There is no need for this. Children can’t help being hungry. It is good for you and the children to eat first. We can eat together if I make it in time. If I didn’t make it in time, I could ask Aunt Zhang to cook dumplings for me. It is also very convenient.”
Ji Yuxiao was unwilling. “Then you could tell me. I would let Xiao Yu and Fei Fei eat first, couldn’t I wait for you myself?”
As he spoke, he wanted to serve Lin Luoqing a meal. Then he looked up and found that there was no one in Lin Fei’s seat.
“Where is Fei Fei?” Lin Luoqing also noticed it as well.
“He is going to serve you, Dad,” Ji Leyu answered while supporting his small face. “You guys can continue chatting. Dad, you don’t even know. Father missed you so much. He couldn’t even eat. Just now, he was staring at the door and wondering why you hadn’t come back yet~”
Lin Luoqing, “???”
Lin Luoqing turned to look at Ji Yuxiao. “Is that so?”
Ji Yuxiao couldn’t laugh or cry. He looked toward Ji Leyu and Ji Leyu blinked, naughty and cute.
“Aren’t you going to complain about your father?” Ji Yuxiao deliberately asked.
Ji Leyu, “???”
Ji Leyu puffed out his cheeks while thinking that his uncle was really annoying. His uncle knew he wouldn’t do this and deliberately teased him.
“Hmph.” He pursed his lips and snorted.
Lin Luoqing smiled. “Xiao Yu, what do you want to complain about?”
Ji Yuxiao smiled. “Yes, what do you want to complain about?”
Ji Leyu, “……”
Ji Leyu was going to die from anger!
“He bullied me!” He pointed to Ji Yuxiao.
Lin Luoqing chuckled. “How did he bully you?”
“He teased me on purpose!” Ji Leyu puffed up angrily. “In any case, he bullied me!”
“Did you hear that?” Lin Luoqing turned to look at Ji Yuxiao. “Stop bullying my son. Don’t always tease the child, understand?”
Ji Leyu nodded. Don’t deliberately tease him just because he wouldn’t complain to Dad.
Hmph!
Ji Yuxiao laughed. “Yes, how dare I bully your son? If my son is bullied, he can find you to complain. If I am bullied, who can I complain to?”
“Me!” Ji Leyu quickly raised his hand. “Father, you can tell me. I will help you fight the bad guys.”
Ji Yuxiao just thought he was cute. “With your little arms and legs, can you still beat the bad guys? The bad guys can carry you and run away.”
Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…Then you really don’t know your son!’
Ji Leyu, “……”
Yes, in the eyes of his uncle, he was indeed a safe and harmless good boy.
Ji Leyu laughed. “Then I’ll help you fight the bad guys when I grow up.”
Lin Luoqing thought, ‘…Yes, you will only write the other person down in your death notebook now. Once you grow up, you will retaliate against them one by one!’
Lin Luoqing was shocked when he thought of this. Fortunately, he transmigrated early. Otherwise, once the time came and Ji Leyu grew up, it wouldn’t be Ji Yuxiao that Lin Luoqing faced but a group of stray dogs!
Too frightening!
He was feeling emotional when he saw Lin Fei walk in through the door of the dining room.
He held a bowl and chopsticks. He walked over to Lin Luoqing, placed them neatly on the table and turned around to walk back to his seat without saying a word.
Lin Luoqing hugged him tightly and kissed him hard on the face. “Thank you, Fei Fei. Fei Fei is so good. You actually took the initiative to help Dad with the meal like this. Dad is so happy!”
Lin Fei was held tightly by him and showed a bit of disdain as usual. He pushed Lin Luoqing away and returned to his seat with an expressionless face.
Lin Luoqing grabbed a chicken wing for him. “Fei Fei, eat this.”
Lin Fei, “……”
Lin Fei felt that Lin Luoqing should grab some food for himself first. He still hadn’t eaten anything.
Then thinking about it, he still lowered his head and ate the chicken wing that Lin Luoqing had given him.
Lin Luoqing watched him finish eating. Then he smiled and grabbed a piece for Ji Leyu. “Xiao Yu, you should eat as well.”
“Yes.” Ji Leyu immediately ate it.
The meal lasted a long time. Then the fathers and sons finished talking, left the dining room and walked to their bedroom.
Lin Luoqing brought back some special products. He left some for him and Ji Yuxiao. Then he took some to give to Lin Fei and Ji Leyu.
“This is a small gift for the two of you~” He said, “I said I would give it to you.”
Ji Leyu took it happily. “Thank you, Dad.”
“You’re welcome. Share it with your brother.”
“Yes.”
Lin Luoqing touched his head and returned to his room.
He had bought snacks and similar things. Both children liked food that was a bit sweet and liked to eat pastries and snacks. Therefore, he bought a lot.
Ji Leyu picked one up and tasted it. It was quite delicious. He moved one to Lin Fei’s mouth. “You try it.”
Lin Fei looked at the book. He was too lazy to raise his hand and directly opened his mouth to bite the snack from his hand. The round, small ball wrapped in sesame seeds immediately entered his mouth. Lin Fei chewed slowly. It had a rose filling and was very sweet.
Ji Leyu looked at him, taking it with his mouth, feeling a bit surprised. Then he placed another one at Lin Fei’s mouth. “Here.”
Lin Fei took it.
Ji Leyu quickly took a third one. “Here.”
Lin Fei, “……”
It was only then that Lin Fei turned to look at him. “What are you doing?”
“Feeding you.” Ji Leyu smiled and said with interest, “You are responsible for reading and I am responsible for feeding you.”
Lin Fei, “……”
Lin Fei reached out and took the snack box from his hand, placing it by his side. “Now I am responsible for reading and you are responsible for homework.”
Ji Leyu, “???”
Ji Leyu snorted angrily and withdrew his hand. Then he found that there was still a snack in his hand he had just handed to Lin Fei that Lin Fei hadn’t eaten.
He stuffed it into his mouth. “I won’t give you food.”
Lin Fei calmly took a snack out of his box and calmly ate it in front of Ji Leyu.
Ji Leyu, “……”
“If you don’t do your homework then you really will have nothing to eat.”
Ji Leyu puffed out his cheeks. He was defeated.
Ah, his brother was really treacherous!
Lin Luoqing came back and Ji Yuxiao planned to let Father Lin sign a contract with Zhuang Yue.
“Your father has vacated an office for you. In addition, the personnel department has sent out a notice. Now everyone in Boyuan knows that you are their new general manager.”
As he spoke, he picked out clothes for Lin Luoqing.
“I’ll go to Boyuan with you tomorrow morning. You will first familiarize yourself with the environment and then sign a contract with Zhuang Yue.”
“Yes.” Lin Luoqing was obedient. “Then will I just be going this time or do I have to keep going in the future?”
“You will only have to go a few times in the future,” Ji Yuxiao said. “You don’t have to go to Xingyi. In any case, there is Qin Meng and you don’t have to worry too much.”
Lin Luoqing nodded. “Okay, I will listen to you.”
Ji Yuxiao grabbed him and let Lin Luoqing sit on his lap. “I will help you use this Zhuang Yue project to establish a certain amount of prestige in Boyuan. Therefore, even if you replace your father in the future, the people in the company won’t be surprised and won’t feel abrupt.”
“Yes.” Lin Luoqing didn’t know much about this, so he didn’t ask much. He just acted according to Ji Yuxiao’s plan.
He just wanted to take back the things that belonged to Lin Luoxi and Lin Fei. He would give these things to Lin Fei, so that it would be easier for Lin Fei to start a business when he grew up.
Therefore, he definitely wouldn’t let go of Boyuan. It was the property that Father Lin and Mother Lin worked hard on together. It wasn’t left to their common grandson but the son of a mistress, was this appropriate?”
In any case, he didn’t think it was appropriate.
