Thank you, quayA, for the ko-fi~
After sending his question via voice message, Feng Yuan didn’t receive a reply from the streamer.
He recalled that during previous live streams, his sister would shower the streamer with gifts.
Gift-giving triggered special effects, and those effects made the streamer more likely to notice him.
Thinking of this, Feng Yuan tapped on the gift icon.
Nothing happened.
This was Uncle Blue Dragon’s phone, not his aunt’s or the others’.
This phone was poor. It had no gifts to give.
After tapping a couple of times with no result, Feng Yuan pressed the voice button again with his chubby little hand and politely repeated his question.
After several attempts, the streamer finally noticed him.
She clicked on his voice message.
Upon hearing the soft, childish voice, the streamer burst out laughing.
“Hahaha, hello there, little guy.”
“Are you playing with an adult’s phone?”
Instead of answering his question right away, the streamer asked him a new one.
Feng Yuan obediently pressed the voice button and replied, “Yes, Yuan Yuan is using Uncle’s phone.”
Hearing the name, the streamer felt it sounded oddly familiar.
But she couldn’t quite place why it seemed so recognizable.
She just laughed and said, “You’re such a cute little kid. By the way, this weight-loss meal isn’t meant to be eaten before or after a meal. It’s meant to replace a meal.”
Feng Yuan was stunned.
Worried he might not understand, the streamer patiently explained further.
“That means if you eat this, you can’t eat any other food.”
Feng Yuan: “…”
Feng Yuan opened his mouth. It took him a few seconds to recover from his shock.
He pressed the voice button again, his little voice sounding dazed: “This meal won’t fill Yuan Yuan up. Yuan Yuan still wants to eat other food.”
The streamer was thoroughly amused: “That’s exactly why this isn’t for kids. From the sound of your voice, you’re still very young, right? Are you still drinking milk formula?”
Realizing he couldn’t use the weight-loss meal to slim down, Feng Yuan felt a bit dejected.
He shook his head, then remembered the streamer couldn’t see him.
So he pressed the voice button again: “Yuan Yuan is three years old. I drink sweet milk. Grandma says it helps me grow tall.”
“You’re three already? How about I teach you a recipe that’s suitable for little kids like you? You can ask the adults at home to learn it, too.”
Feng Yuan: “Okay!”
The streamer started cooking again, this time preparing a child-friendly meal.
Feng Yuan watched attentively but didn’t call Uncle Blue Dragon over to learn.
Uncle Blue Dragon was taking a bath.
Feng Yuan watched carefully and stored the instructions in his little head.
He planned to try making it himself next time.
After watching the stream for a while, Feng Yuan felt he wasn’t finding any good weight-loss methods.
He leaned back and flopped onto the pillow propped against the headboard.
The pillow, perfectly sized for an adult, seemed overwhelmingly large for the little child.
Feng Yuan’s small head sank into the soft pillow. The feeling was quite nice.
He crossed his chubby little legs, resting his left leg over his right.
He stopped browsing weight-loss videos and instead used the AI voice assistant to search the game store for the little games he used to play.
It had been a while since Feng Yuan had played games properly.
Feng Qi and Li Sheng had both come across videos online about children becoming addicted to phones.
Some children throw tantrums, kicking and hitting their parents just to play with phones or tablets.
Watching such videos made Feng Qi and Li Sheng frown deeply.
Both dads wanted to prevent their chubby child from developing an early internet addiction, so they strictly controlled his access to phones and tablets.
At the moment, the two dads weren’t in the room.
Feng Yuan was playing a game he hadn’t touched in a long time. It didn’t take long for his mood to lift.
When the blue dragon came out of the shower, he saw that Feng Yuan had already pulled Little Deer into a match.
The two, one big and one small, were playing together, with Little Deer streaming the game live.
Little Deer’s livestream was buzzing with activity.
Many netizens were chatting about Little Yuan Yuan.
Feng Yuan had just been in the news, and his popularity was soaring.
This wave of attention undoubtedly brought another surge of traffic to Little Deer’s stream.
Watching the rising viewer count and the constant stream of donations, Little Deer couldn’t wipe the smile off his face.
Amid the harmony, a few unfriendly comments occasionally slipped in.
A handful of netizens—or, more accurately, trolls—spammed several comments accusing Yuan Yuan of deliberately seeking attention for future profit.
Besides the accusations of clout-chasing, they also claimed Yuan Yuan had poor manners in private, cutting in line while queuing, and even posted photos as proof.
They did indeed share a picture.
In the photo, Feng Yuan was being held by a handsome man and was indeed cutting in line.
Little Deer caught sight of these comments.
He immediately blocked those users.
In his livestream, he wouldn’t tolerate anyone speaking ill of Yuan Yuan.
Little Deer just wanted to enjoy playing games happily with Feng Yuan.
If it weren’t for Feng Yuan asking him to keep the stream on and continue playing, he would have shut it down to spend some quality time with the little one.
“Little Deer, I’m going home tomorrow. When I get back, I’ll bring you a gift.”
Thanks to Uncle Ji’s sponsorship, Feng Yuan had received many local specialties from Long City.
He planned to bring them all back and share them with the adults at home.
Hearing that Feng Yuan wanted to give him a gift, Little Deer’s eyes curved into crescents.
“When you come, I’ll cook for you.”
“Okay!”
The two chatted and played games together, creating an incredibly heartwarming scene.
After playing for an hour, Little Deer checked the time and gently urged, “Yuan Yuan, it’s getting late. Shouldn’t you be heading to bed?”
Feng Yuan: “No!”
Feng Yuan got carried away when playing games, shaking his little head like a rattle drum.
“Little Deer, let’s play one more round.”
“But Yuan Yuan, you’ve been playing for a long time.”
Little Deer tried to coax him gently in the game.
Beside Feng Yuan, the blue dragon was also whispering, calling him “baby” repeatedly.
Feng Yuan knew the dragon uncles spoiled him the most, so when the blue dragon told him to stop playing, he simply ignored him.
Neither Little Deer nor the blue dragon could rein Feng Yuan in.
Just then, another person joined Little Deer’s livestream—
Y.
Yu Yi, unable to sleep late at night, was chatting with a friend on WeChat about their next skiing trip when he accidentally found out that Feng Yuan was playing games with Little Deer.
He knew earlier than the other adults.
Upon learning that Feng Yuan had been gaming for an hour without any sign of stopping, Yu Yi immediately entered Little Deer’s livestream.
As soon as he entered, he gifted Little Deer a gift package worth 100,000.
To Yu Yi, 100,000 was nothing.
He simply considered it as contributing to Little Deer’s household food expenses.
Wu Jin had told him that the big, gluttonous fool in Little Deer’s family was a Taotie.
When Yu Yi heard the word “Taotie”, he couldn’t help but feel sorry for Little Deer.
How could a poor little thing like Little Deer, who didn’t have much money, end up with such a big spender like a Taotie?
His luck was truly unmatched.
But Yu Yi considered himself lucky to have someone as honest and simple as Wu Jin as his precious treasure.
Even without sending gifts, Little Deer knew Yu Yi had arrived.
In the live stream, big spenders like Yu Yi would receive a notification when they entered.
After greeting Yu Yi, Little Deer invited him to join the voice chat.
Once Yu Yi was on the mic, he didn’t waste any time.
He straightforwardly addressed the little guy on the mic, “Yuan Yuan, go to sleep now, or you’ll get a spanking.”
Feng Yuan was startled by his godfather’s sudden voice.
After recovering, the little guy hummed in his baby voice, still trying to be disobedient.
“You can’t spank Yuan Yuan right now.”
“Hmm, I can’t spank you right now, but I can call your dad right away.”
Yu Yi had snitched on Feng Yuan before, leading to a spanking.
Hearing that Yu Yi might snitch again, Feng Yuan was still afraid.
“Godfather, don’t call!”
Feng Yuan tried to butter up his godfather, hoping to avoid both the call and being forced to stop gaming. “Yuan Yuan loves you the most!”
“If you love Godfather, then give the phone to Uncle and close your eyes to sleep.”
Yu Yi wasn’t buying it at all.
Under Yu Yi’s relentless urging, Feng Yuan finally pouted and agreed to go to sleep after finishing the current game.
The game they were playing hadn’t ended yet.
Just as Feng Yuan and Little Deer were about to wrap up the game, another person entered the live stream.
This newcomer had over a million followers.
Right off the bat, they sent gifts and requested a voice connection.
Since they had sent quite a few gifts, Little Deer, following the live stream’s rules, had to give them the mic.
Once on the mic, the person zeroed in on Feng Yuan.
“Hello, little Yuan Yuan. Uncle has been wanting to chat with you for a long time.”
“Could you talk to Uncle for a bit?”
Being asked so politely, the good-natured Feng Yuan replied with an “Mm-hmm.”
“Sure, what do you want to talk to Yuan Yuan about?”
“Uncle will introduce himself first. Uncle is the director of the show ‘Dad, Charge Forward’. The show films the daily lives of dads and their kids.”
“Yuan Yuan, Uncle would like to film you and your dad, Feng Qi.”
“Uncle will pay you—”
The director didn’t get to finish his sentence.
Little Deer, having realized what was happening, had already kicked him off the mic.
Not stopping there, Little Deer also kicked him out of the live stream.
“Yuan Yuan, don’t think about what that uncle said. Be good and go to sleep. Your godfather is still waiting for you to sleep.”
Little Deer sped up and quickly ended the game early.
Feng Yuan, who had been carried to victory, looked at the phone in his hand, his little face full of regret.
“Sigh.”
The little one sighed mournfully. “When will Yuan Yuan get to have a phone?”
“When you grow up.”
Yu Yi, having heard him, replied, “When you’re all grown up, Godfather will buy you the best phone.”
After putting the little one to sleep, Yu Yi continued chatting about skiing.
It had been a long time since he last went skiing. After such a prolonged period without physical activity, he felt himself growing lazier by the day.
Now, he was so lazy that even he couldn’t stand it.
While Yu Yi was still indulging in his laziness, at the hotel, Feng Yuan was already getting ready for bed.
The blue dragon held him close, kissing his soft little cheeks, feeling utterly content.
“Sweetie, I’ll tell you a story while you fall asleep.”
Feng Yuan quickly drifted off to the sound of the blue dragon’s storytelling.
Once asleep, his chubby little legs, as usual, rested on Uncle Blue Dragon.
His plump little body nestled against the blue dragon, the softness of it all making the blue dragon reluctant to sleep himself.
He wanted to keep gazing a little longer at this beautiful child who depended on him even in sleep.
Feng Yuan slept soundly.
But after he fell asleep, a new video about him surfaced online.
This new video fully documented the entire process of him and Qing Hao being scammed by a scalper.
In the video, the little child, scolded until his eyes turned red, looked both innocent and pitiful.
The video was reposted by the director of 《Dad, Charge Forward》.
When reposting, the director added some suggestive text.
He repeatedly used Feng Yuan as a topic of discussion.
This prompted another director, who had no patience for him, to directly tag him and send him a few words:
“Know when to stop.”
A man in his forties constantly used a three-year-old child for hype. Many in the industry rolled their eyes at such behavior.
Director Lian, who spoke up, was not in competition with the director of 《Dad, Charge Forward》.
Director Lian was a serious filmmaker.
His status in the film industry was quite high.
The renowned Bo Han had won the Best Actor award thanks to one of his films.
The online drama was completely unknown to the sleeping child.
At the hotel, the little guy only knew that after a good night’s sleep, it was time to go home.
He had already spent two days playing in Long City.
Now that playtime was over, the little guy had to return to the routine.
No, it was time for school.
On Monday at kindergarten, the children didn’t seem particularly energetic.
Feng Yuan was listless during class, but he perked up after school.
After a full day at kindergarten, as soon as school was out, he busied himself delivering gifts.
He delivered them based on proximity.
He had already given gifts to the adults of the Li family.
His repaired little car was now loaded with gifts for his godfather, Little Deer, and his uncle.
Feng Yuan first went to his godfather’s house.
His godfather owned multiple properties. The one he was currently living in was very close to their home.
Feng Yuan drove his little car. When encountering small bumps, he simply rammed right over them.
Fortunately, the car modified by Li Ting was quite sturdy.
“Godfather, Wu Jin, Yuan Yuan is here!”
Feng Yuan brought three gifts for his godfather’s household:
One for his godfather, one for Wu Jin, and one for the egg.
Feng Yuan drove his car all the way into the living room with the gifts, but no one came to greet him.
The living room was empty.
The little guy parked his car, picked up the gifts, and toddled off on his short legs to find someone.
