Thank you, quayA, for the ko-fi~
The demon’s target was Li Sheng.
He looked as though he wished he could tear Li Sheng to pieces.
Feng Qi naturally wouldn’t let him have his way.
The conflict between the demon and the phoenix came to an end only when Bo Han arrived.
Bo Han hadn’t expected them to be fighting. “What’s going on with you two?!”
Judging by their stances, it seemed as if they held some deep-seated grudge against each other.
But as far as Bo Han knew, the two of them shouldn’t have any history of conflict.
Out of respect for Bo Han, Feng Qi stopped.
He tattled, “This guy’s gone crazy for some reason. He wants to kill Li Sheng!”
Bo Han: “…”
Bo Han: “Huh?”
Bo Han turned to look at the demon.
The demon was still staring at Li Sheng, his eyes filled with undisguised killing intent.
Bo Han walked over to the demon and grabbed his arm.
“Explain yourself clearly. What grudge do you hold against Li Sheng?”
Bo Han had spoken with Li Sheng before.
He believed Li Sheng was a decent person and quite experienced in raising children.
“He… betrayed the demon race.”
With Bo Han personally intervening, the demon’s voice was icy as he slowly revealed the reason: “It was him… He caused the demon race’s defeat.”
During the great war between gods and demons back then, they, the demons, could have won.
It was this man before him who had turned traitor at the last moment.
The demon’s words made Bo Han understand immediately.
Though Bo Han understood, his head was still buzzing in confusion.
“Are you saying… Li Sheng is like you, also resurrected?”
“He’s that great demon from the god-demon war, the one who sealed both gods and demons in the end?”
Bo Han: “That can’t be, right?!”
Bo Han stared at Li Sheng in shock. He couldn’t detect even a trace of demonic aura from Li Sheng!
Feng Qi also thought the demon had mistaken Li Sheng for someone else.
“Li Sheng isn’t a demon. He has a father and a mother. He’s their biological child, not resurrected.”
Li Sheng had no desire to be labeled a demon, either.
Feng Qi was a phoenix, a divine beast.
A demon… just didn’t sound like a suitable match for a phoenix.
“You’ve mistaken him for someone else.”
Li Sheng spoke coldly: “Considering our children know each other, I’ll let this incident slide.”
“But I don’t want there to be a next time.”
Li Sheng knew the young ones from both families were close, so he didn’t want to sour relations with the other child’s parent too much.
Hearing this, Bo Han immediately nodded understandingly.
“Don’t worry. I’ll make things clear to him.”
“I just finished moving today. How about we have dinner together tonight? My treat.”
For the sake of his child, Bo Han had moved near Feng Qi’s residence. From now on, their families would inevitably continue to interact.
So, Bo Han wanted to treat them to a meal as a gesture of thanks.
Feng Qi shook his head. “No need.”
Feng Qi wasn’t refusing out of anger.
He explained, “We’re taking Yuan Yuan to see his godfather later.”
Feng Qi had mentioned Feng Yuan’s godfather to Bo Han before.
For a human to give birth to a dragon egg, the risks involved were far greater than a dragon laying an egg itself.
Feng Qi had even asked Bo Han if he had any medicine that could be used during the egg-laying process.
Foxes were skilled in making medicine.
He had indeed given Feng Qi two bottles of medicine, one of which happened to be a pain reliever.
This medicine had absolutely no side effects.
Yu Yi could take it when the time came to lay the egg.
“Then you should go.”
Bo Han didn’t delay them any longer.
He kept a firm grip on the demon’s arm, ready to restrain him in case he suddenly lashed out.
Soon.
Feng Qi and Li Sheng’s figures disappeared beyond the doorway. Bo Han withdrew his gaze and pinched the demon in frustration.
“Don’t pull something like this again next time!”
“Li Sheng is Yuan Yuan’s biological father, not that person you were thinking of!”
“If you kill him, how will my Rong Rong and Yuan Yuan play together in the future?”
This matter concerned the friendship between the two little ones.
Bo Han took it very seriously!
The demon was being lectured sternly. But the murderous intent in his eyes showed no signs of fading.
That is, until Bo Han said, “Let’s go home first! Rong Rong is waiting for you.”
The demon followed closely behind him toward the villa entrance.
As they walked out, Bo Han continued to nag him.
“Our families live close by. We’ll see each other all the time. I’m warning you, don’t cause any trouble.”
“If you dare cause trouble, I’ll take Rong Rong and leave immediately.”
“I promise, this time it’ll be at least three years before you find us!”
Hearing that the fox still had thoughts of running away, the demon’s gaze finally darkened.
“I’ll spare him.”
The demon’s murderous intent wasn’t so easily appeased.
Though he spared Li Sheng, he demanded the fox compensate him for this decision.
Bo Han snorted at the demon’s arrogant declaration of sparing Li Sheng, as if he were some kind of protagonist.
This demon really was outrageously arrogant.
Did he really think that if he didn’t spare Li Sheng, Li Sheng would actually die?
What a joke.
Li Sheng belonged to the phoenix.
Although the phoenix’s power wasn’t what it used to be, he could still burn his life force to temporarily restore his strength to its peak.
And at his peak, the phoenix might very well be a match for this demon beside him.
The phoenix clan once followed the Yellow Emperor, clearing the way for his chariot.
When you really thought about it, the phoenix’s combat prowess was terrifying.
Bo Han rolled his eyes and ignored the demon’s arrogance.
He brought the demon to their doorstep.
The door opened.
Rong Rong stood just behind it, lifting his little face to greet them.
The warmth inside hadn’t fully built up yet.
Bo Han hadn’t even taken off Rong Rong’s thick winter clothes.
The tiny little cub, bundled in heavy winter wear, looked both small and clumsy. He was utterly adorable.
Bo Han bent down and scooped up his precious son.
In the past, Bo Han had never imagined he would one day become so doting on a child.
He’d seen other little foxes before.
But he’d never felt such tenderness toward any of them.
Only with his own little fox did Bo Han feel he could never get enough kisses or hugs.
Maybe it was the “biological dad filter”. To him, his little fox was the most adorable in the entire world.
Bo Han was showering his cub with kisses.
After being kissed, the little fox cub spread his tiny arms, asking his new father to hold him.
Bo Han: “…”
Watching as the demon carried his cub away, Bo Han’s expression turned complicated.
On Bo Han’s side, they barely made up a family of three.
Though not as loving and harmonious as Feng Yuan’s family, they could still manage.
With the demon watching Rong Rong, Bo Han could finally tidy up the house.
He focused on organizing Rong Rong’s things.
While Rong Rong had both fathers by his side, Feng Yuan was also being closely watched by his two dads.
When Feng Qi and Li Sheng returned home, they didn’t dwell much on the earlier encounter with the demon.
Feng Qi was speculating about Feng Yuan’s reaction.
“I already told him I’d spank him when we got back. He must be scared by now.”
Feng Qi had issued a spanking warning in advance.
In his estimation, the little guy was surely at home, trying to seek help.
But no one in the family would be able to save him.
The little guy who failed to call for help must be utterly heartbroken and teary-eyed, waiting for him at home.
Just thinking about the poor little thing waiting to be punished at home made Feng Qi wonder if he shouldn’t have given a warning in advance.
The feeling of waiting for a punishment that hasn’t arrived yet…
He couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable just imagining it.
While Feng Qi was empathizing, the little guy he was empathizing with was still giggling happily.
The little guy was replaying the Ka Tu Tu cartoon.
Even watching cartoons on their TV required payment.
Li Heng had already topped up all the VIP memberships, so Feng Yuan could watch whatever he wanted.
“Qin Xun, look. I can do this move, too!”
Feng Yuan’s chubby little hand was holding a piece of sugarcane that Grandma had roasted for him.
He danced around in front of the TV, performing Ka Tu Tu’s signature move for Qin Xun.
Qin Xun sat cross-legged on the rug beside the coffee table.
His eyes were fixed on Feng Yuan. From time to time, he reminded him, “Yuan Yuan, be careful.”
Feng Yuan waved the sugarcane around like a little stick.
“Don’t worry about Yuan Yuan. Yuan Yuan won’t fall!”
The little guy lifted one chubby foot into the air, performing another difficult move.
Watching his antics, Qin Xun’s eyelids twitched.
“Yuan Yuan, be careful.”
Qin Xun reminded him again.
Feng Yuan’s chubby face was full of confidence. But just as he was giggling and mimicking Ka Tu Tu’s fighting moves, the piece of sugarcane in his hand finally hit the TV.
Crack!
The TV seemed to make a sound. Then, a thin crack appeared on the screen, which was still playing Ka Tu Tu.
The giggling, chubby little guy froze.
He looked at the sugarcane in his hand, then at the TV he had accidentally broken…
But the most terrifying thing was yet to come.
When he turned his head, he saw his dad’s face, dark with anger.
“Feng Yuan!!!”
Feng Qi was absolutely furious. “Come here right now!”
Seeing how angry his dad was, Feng Yuan’s chubby little face finally showed fear.
Feng Qi grabbed him. When Feng Qi saw the padded pants Yuan Yuan was wearing, he grew even angrier.
This time, Feng Yuan’s punishment was harsher than ever before.
After the spanking, he was left with a pile of debt.
Feng Qi called a repairman. Although the TV was still under warranty, since the damage was caused by human error, it wasn’t covered for free.
The repair cost 1,100 yuan.
Feng Yuan lay on the coffee table, tearfully writing out an IOU.
He owed his dad 1,100 yuan.
The 1,100 yuan repair fee was a loan from his dad.
The little guy had already regretted breaking the TV the moment it happened.
After his punishment, he tearfully apologized to the TV.
He hadn’t meant to break it.
All this commotion caused by Feng Yuan delayed their departure a bit.
The family didn’t leave the house until after 11 o’clock.
On the road.
Feng Yuan, with his sore bottom, lay in the car, his eyes red and his nose red, too.
He took out a math notebook and a pencil.
He was calculating his debt.
The little one, who could only do math within 10 on paper, had no idea how to handle a number like 1,100.
He asked his dad for a calculator.
While Feng Qi and Li Sheng closed their eyes to rest during the journey, Feng Yuan pressed the calculator, trying to figure out when he could pay off his debt.
He used addition.
His scrap-collecting business was doing quite well. He could earn 20 yuan a day.
20 + 20 + 20 + 20…
Feng Yuan was working hard, trying to make the final result add up to four digits.
But his chubby little hands were already numb from pressing the buttons. The number on the calculator still hadn’t reached four digits.
The little guy stared at the calculator and secretly wiped away his tears.
It was over.
He had worked so hard, collecting scraps to become a rich little kid who could buy snacks freely at the convenience store entrance.
Now that he had broken the TV, he had instantly become penniless.
Even a penniless person was better off than him.
At least penniless people didn’t have debts!
The little guy, suddenly burdened with debt, felt overwhelming sadness. Clutching the calculator with both hands, he cried like a squealing piglet.
Feng Qi and Li Sheng listened to him cry but paid him no mind.
The car sped along the road.
Soon, the family of three, along with Qin Xun, arrived at the Yu residence.
Qin Xun felt quite sorry for the little guy.
But there was nothing he could do to help.
After accepting Feng Yuan’s IOU, Feng Qi had specifically reminded him not to help Feng Yuan repay the debt.
He couldn’t help Feng Yuan cheat, either.
The debt Feng Yuan had incurred had to be repaid by himself.
“Yuan Yuan, time to get out of the car.”
Qin Xun carried the little guy, who had been wiping his tears the entire ride, out of the car.
He was finding it a bit difficult to carry Feng Yuan now.
Feng Yuan was dressed so round and chubby.
Though there was a slight height difference between them, it wasn’t as pronounced as with adults.
Feng Qi glanced at the two little ones and said, “Xiao Xun, let Yuan Yuan walk on his own.”
The Yu family lived in a Suzhou-style villa. Yu Lian and Fang Fang both adored Suzhou-style architecture.
As they entered, Feng Yuan reached out to touch the stone lion at the entrance.
“Big Dad, is this expensive?”
Feng Yuan sniffled and pointed at the stone lion as he asked.
“Expensive.”
Li Sheng, who happened to know the price, answered his son: “This is used to guard the entrance, so of course it’s costly.”
Hearing this, Feng Yuan walked over to the stone lion.
He squatted down beside it.
“Dad, move the lion away. Yuan Yuan will guard the door. Give Yuan Yuan money.”
Feng Qi: “…”
Feng Qi looked at the little guy squatting on the ground, his chubby hands tucked into his sleeves like a farmer. He had no idea what to say.
Li Sheng, amused by his son’s squatting posture, immediately took out his phone and snapped a picture.
Li Sheng followed both Feng Qi and Feng Yuan’s super-topics.
He was even a moderator in Feng Qi’s super-topic.
As for his son’s super-topic, he planned to become a moderator there as well.
To earn points, he directly posted the photo in the super-topic.
L: “Yuan Yuan is squatting at the entrance, asking someone to move the stone lion so he can guard the door. Of course, he demanded payment.”
Attached: 3 images.
After posting to farm experience and points, Li Sheng turned off his phone and put it back in his pocket.
Feng Qi was still trying to get Feng Yuan to stand up.
Feng Yuan remained firmly squatting, refusing to budge.
He was determined to act as a stone lion for a while, guarding the door to earn money.
Yu Lian and Fang Fang, who had come out to greet the guests—mainly to welcome Feng Yuan—happened to witness the scene.
The elderly couple didn’t realize the little guy was desperate for money.
They simply thought he was being adorable again.
The elderly couple was utterly charmed.
“Yuan Yuan, it’s cold outside. If you want to be a little lion, you can’t guard this door.”
Fang Fang walked over and coaxed the squatting child with a smile, “Grandma has other doors at home. If you want to guard a door, how about guarding one inside for Grandma?”
Feng Yuan nodded.
His chubby face serious, he said, “You have to give Yuan Yuan some money.”
Fang Fang: “Alright, alright, whatever you want—”
“One yuan.”
Feng Qi directly cut off Fang Fang’s words and quoted a price to Feng Yuan.
“Go guard the door inside. One yuan per hour.”
Fang Fang choked.
She felt the wage Feng Qi offered was far too low.
One yuan an hour. Might as well go wash dishes instead.
One yuan was very little for an adult.
But Feng Yuan didn’t mind.
He nodded his little head and accepted the job.
Once the adults had settled the terms with him, they brought him into the warm house.
As soon as he entered.
Feng Yuan chose a door and crouched down beside it.
Qin Xun, standing next to him, asked, “Yuan Yuan, aren’t you going to check on Eggy first?”
Feng Yuan shook his head.
Tears were still wet on his little face, but his expression was resolute.
“I’ll go see Eggy after I’ve earned one yuan.”
