The little chubby ball that had been picked up froze.
He weakly lifted his head and met a pair of eyes full of meaning. Eyes that seemed to hold endless significance.
The little chubby ball: “Chirp, chirp.”
Trying to wriggle out with excuses, huh!
Yu Yi ignored the little one’s excuses. Holding the little chubby ball in his arms, he returned to the room.
On the way back, he even ran into Fang Fang.
“Xiao Yi, have you seen Yuan Yuan? He said he wants to come sleep with me.”
“I asked Yuan Yuan to sleep with me.”
Yu Yi had intercepted the little chubby ball and was now coaxing his own mom: “Mom, isn’t having Dad with you enough? Let Yuan Yuan stay with me.”
Fang Fang gave him a speechless look. But in the end, she didn’t compete with him.
“When you sleep with Yuan Yuan, be careful. He likes kicking off the covers. Don’t set the AC too low, and cover his belly for him.”
“I know.”
After reminding her son, Fang Fang glanced at his room, hesitating to speak.
“So… Uh, Wu Jin isn’t in your room, right?”
The Yu family had arranged a room for Wu Jin. However, whether Wu Jin actually slept in the assigned room was unknown.
Yu Yi was vague and didn’t give a direct answer.
Holding the little chubby ball, he slipped straight into the bedroom.
Fang Fang watched his back and sighed as she went to find Yu Lian.
These two kids… Just thinking about them made her exasperated.
Despite her frustration, she couldn’t help but keep recalling the promise Wu Jin had made to her.
Wu Jin had said that he and Yu Yi would have a little one.
Fang Fang furrowed her brow, unsure whether he was just teasing her.
“If there really were a child…”
Fang Fang murmured. Before she could even finish the thought, she stopped herself.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The little chubby ball, brought back to the room, struggled but couldn’t move. His tiny head drooped, and his little claws hung limply. He looked as if he were dead.
Yu Yi shook him: “Don’t play dead.”
Feng Yuan’s black-bean-like eyes squeezed shut, refusing to open no matter what.
In the bedroom, Wu Jin saw Yu Yi carrying the little chubby ball in and clearly froze for a moment.
“Yuan—”
“Mm, Little Chubby Yuan is playing dead. Turn him on for me,” Yu Yi said, tossing the round little guy in his hands to Wu Jin.
Wu Jin hurriedly caught him.
He looked at the little chubby ball in his hands, then at Yu Yi, his tone tinged with caution.
“Xiao Yi, you… You know?”
Yu Yi rolled his eyes. “Do I look like a fool?”
He had received an elite education since childhood. Even though he often looked careless, he still had his wits about him.
He had actually already noticed something unusual about Wu Jin.
But their relationship had always been sweet and intimate. There were many things Yu Yi didn’t want to think about deeply.
Now, with the little chubby ball right in front of him, he didn’t want to play blind anymore.
“Yuan Yuan.”
Seeing that Yu Yi had already realized, Wu Jin had no choice but to lower his head and call out to Feng Yuan: “Your godfather has recognized you.”
Feng Yuan: “……”
Feng Yuan slowly opened his black bean-like eyes.
He turned his little face toward his godfather, lifted his tiny claws, and finally gave a greeting.
Yu Yi: “Hmph.”
Yu Yi plopped down on the bed, leaning back a little.
Wu Jin stood at the edge of the bed, holding the little chubby ball.
Feng Yuan chirped, trying to explain.
Wu Jin translated quietly: “Yuan Yuan says he didn’t mean to hide it from you.”
“Dad just told him not to reveal it casually.”
“Also, he says he’s not a little chick, he’s a little phoenix.”
As Wu Jin explained this, he even nodded, vouching for Feng Yuan.
“Except for Feng Qi, Feng Yuan is the last little phoenix.”
“Oh, a little phoenix.”
Yu Yi said this as he scrutinized him.
After a few seconds, he said, “Doesn’t look like it.”
Feng Yuan: “???”
Feng Yuan: “Chirp!”
The chubby little ball, accused of not looking like a phoenix, collapsed in heartbreak.
Seeing the tiny fellow looking so deeply wounded, Yu Yi finally let the corners of his mouth curve up.
“Yuan Yuan is very impressive. He’s the phoenix recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.”
“He’s an auspicious sign.”
“A divine beast.”
Wu Jin kept praising Feng Yuan. As he spoke, the little chubby ball who had been heartbroken just moments ago perked right back up.
The little chubby ball lifted his round little face. His black-bean eyes grew determined, looking as if he were about to rule the world any second.
Yu Yi: “…”
Yu Yi raised a finger and poked the little chubby ball’s plump belly.
The little chubby ball, who had just been imagining himself grown, spreading his wings and overlooking the world from the skies, was suddenly poked in the belly.
He let out a squeak, all his momentum instantly gone.
“Chirp!”
The little chubby ball was very displeased.
Watching the little one’s lively expressions, Yu Yi’s mood, which had not been so great, slowly brightened.
“Yuan Yuan is a phoenix from the Classic of Mountains and Seas. What about you? Are you some kind of auspicious creature, too?”
Wu Jin fell silent.
His handsome face tightened. If he weren’t holding Feng Yuan, his hands would’ve already clenched into fists.
Under Yu Yi’s gaze, Wu Jin forced out two miserable words: “I’m not.”
He wasn’t an auspicious sign.
His name was listed among the ominous beasts.
He was a dark, cold, and ugly flood dragon.
“Chirp, chirp, chirp!”
Feng Yuan sensed the suppressed emotion in Wu Jin. He knew Wu Jin had always been deeply insecure.
“Chirp, chirp! Chirp!”
The little one’s chirping grew more and more frantic.
He was speaking up for Wu Jin.
Seeing that Yu Yi couldn’t understand his frantic chirps, the little guy became so anxious that he transformed on the spot.
He turned back into his little cub form again.
“Godfather!”
The little one demonstrated a transformation from chubby ball to chubby cub right in front of Yu Yi. And after performing, he didn’t give his godfather any chance to react. He opened his pudgy little arms and leapt straight onto him.
“Wu Jin looks really good. Don’t say he’s ugly!”
“Wu Jin is… he’s…”
The little guy’s face flushed red.
He knew that if he said “black snake” or “black dragon”, his godfather might get scared. Before even marrying Wu Jin, his godfather might even decide he didn’t want Wu Jin anymore.
Feng Yuan’s tiny brain spun at full speed. Finally, he squeezed out one word:
“A dragon!”
Yu Yi: “What?”
Feng Yuan’s chubby little face was extremely serious. In his soft, babyish voice, he declared solemnly, “Wu Jin is a dragon!”
Wu Jin would definitely become a dragon in the future.
So Feng Yuan simply left out the words “in the future”.
Wu Jin would one day be a dragon.
And after shortening that sentence, it became: “Wu Jin is a dragon!”
Feng Yuan understood. Lots of people loved dragons!
On the clothes Grandpa and Grandma Yu bought, there were even dragons embroidered on them.
No one was afraid of dragons, but everyone might be a little scared of anything dark.
Right after Feng Yuan said he was a dragon, Wu Jin’s expression froze.
He… he really could transform into a dragon.
But right now, he was still just a flood dragon.
“Godfather, are you afraid of dragons?”
“No.”
The moment Yu Yi let the word “no” slip from his mouth, Wu Jin’s expression shifted again.
He was a black flood dragon. Yu Yi was afraid of that.
He was a dragon. Yu Yi wasn’t afraid of that.
And even though he was currently a black dragon, he could transform into a dragon.
So, Feng Yuan hadn’t been wrong!
He was a dragon!
Having taken out a loan in advance on the identity of “dragon”, Wu Jin still felt a little embarrassed. His expression was slightly stiff, but he accepted Feng Yuan’s words by default.
Yu Yi looked at the tall one and the small one, his tone light: “Oh? I’ve always wanted to see what a dragon looks like. Wu Jin, when you have time, let me see.”
Wu Jin: “Okay.”
Wu Jin agreed. His gaze met Feng Yuan’s.
The little one gave him an encouraging look, telling him not to worry.
When it came to transforming into a dragon, Yuan Yuan would work hard together with him!
With both the big and the small vests stripped away, Feng Yuan still couldn’t get over how much he liked the little vest he had just put on.
“Godfather, did you make this for Yuan Yuan?”
Feng Yuan picked up the little green vest, his small face bright with delight. “Yuan Yuan really likes this.”
“I had someone make it.”
Yu Yi had never touched a needle and thread in his life, so of course, he couldn’t make it himself.
He glanced at the little vest and said, “Change back. I’ll take your measurements. I’ll have a few more sets made for you.”
Feng Yuan: “!”
Feng Yuan’s eyes lit up. He changed back again.
Yu Yi picked up a measuring tape and measured his round, chubby little belly, along with a few other spots.
After finishing the measurements, he took several front-facing and side photos of Feng Yuan.
“All right.”
Once everything was done, Yu Yi patted the bed. “Time to sleep.”
They had been busy up until now. It was already very late.
If they didn’t sleep soon, Feng Yuan would probably refuse to get up tomorrow.
Feng Yuan went to sleep in his little chubby-ball form, his claws still clutching the tiny vest, looking as if he had to keep it close even in his sleep.
Children slept deeply.
Feng Yuan was sound asleep in no time. Even when Yu Yi touched his little claws beside him, Feng Yuan didn’t react.
Wu Jin got into the bed as well.
The two of them had always slept together.
Whoever was without the other tended to sleep poorly.
“Xiao Yi, you should sleep, too.”
“I’m not sleepy yet.”
Yu Yi wasn’t sleepy at all. Leaning against the bed, he sent the photos he had just taken to Little Deer.
The person he had mentioned, the one who made clothes for Feng Yuan, was Little Deer.
Little Deer grew up in an orphanage and was skilled at all kinds of practical things.
The little clothes Feng Yuan wore were nothing more than small crafts to him.
Y: “【Transfered 50,000】”
Y: “Use the best materials. Make several different styles.”
Y: “Oh, and make two extra little capes.”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “Okay, Brother Yu.”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “Brother Yu, I’m flying abroad the day after tomorrow to watch a match. I can bring the clothes to you.”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “If you don’t want to meet, I can mail them instead.”
Y: “Then bring them to me directly.”
Y: “Send me your flight info once it’s booked.”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “Mm mm! Thank you for the order, Brother Yu, and also for supporting my livestream before! I’m really grateful!”
Y: “No need to thank me.”
Y: “I saw that big fool of yours streaming. Does what he earns cover what he eats?”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “[Little cat face stammering/]”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “He’s not earning much yet, but there is some income!”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “I never expected him to make a lot of money. Letting him stream is just to give him something to do.”
Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass: “And… he’s not a big dummy. His name is Tao Zhi.”
Yu Yi watched as Little Deer repeatedly explained that the “big fool” wasn’t actually stupid. He just got stuck on things sometimes, but he was actually very smart.
The corner of Yu Yi’s mouth twitched. He honestly didn’t know what to say.
“Xiao Yi, stop looking at your phone.”
Seeing Yu Yi still on his phone, Wu Jin leaned over, pressing his big head against Yu Yi’s chest.
Yu Yi was practically crushed. His chest hurt from the weight.
“Do you have any idea how heavy you are?”
He ruffled that big head and tossed his phone aside.
Lying down, he kissed Wu Jin’s mouth the way one would soothe an overly restless big dog.
“Lights off. Sleep.”
“Mhm. Kiss me again.”
While the two adults were still kissing and kissing, little chubby-ball Feng Yuan was clutching his tiny vest and dreaming.
In his dream, he had a red little cape!
Wearing that cape, he looked absolutely majestic!
After a whole night of good dreams, Feng Yuan woke the next morning and, not seeing the little cape, let out a disappointed chirp.
He brought the green vest along with him.
Yu Yi took him to the base. On the way, he explained.
“Your clothes are made by Little Deer. The same Little Deer who played games with you.”
“If you want to check his progress, you can watch his livestream.”
Little Deer was a workaholic. Besides the account he used for gaming streams, he had another small account where he streamed bits of his daily life.
In short, to earn money, Little Deer did everything.
Yu Yi knew the little one was eager to wear new clothes, so he specifically gave him Little Deer’s social account.
Feng Yuan memorized it.
That evening after school, he grabbed his aunt’s tablet and opened the video platform.
“Xiao Ai Genie, help me search for Little Deer.”
The tablet had an intelligent AI assistant, so Feng Yuan used his voice to tell it to help him search for Little Deer.
The little AI pulled up many accounts named Little Deer.
Feng Yuan matched them by profile picture and found the one called “Little Deer Doesn’t Eat Grass”.
Just as he found it, Little Deer happened to be streaming.
But at the moment, Little Deer was streaming a game.
Feng Yuan watched for a bit, then sent a voice comment into the livestream.
“Little Deer, ah, when are you making the clothes?”
“Can you make a red cape? I also want it covered in gems.”
Feng Yuan sent several voice messages, but none of them were noticed.
His little face looked troubled.
Qin Xun, sitting beside him, saw this and reminded him, “You can just send him a WeChat message directly.”
Feng Yuan: “Okay!”
He was just about to tap open WeChat.
Passing by, Li Si stopped behind him and tapped the screen with her finger.
Very quickly.
A whole row of gifts flooded the livestream.
Little Deer instantly noticed the account sending them.
“Thank you, Love Yuan, for the sports car.”
“Thank you, Love Yuan, for the Heart of the Universe.”
After reading the gifts aloud, Little Deer also noticed the voice comments from the ID “Love Yuan”.
He tapped them open. The next second, Feng Yuan’s soft, milky little voice sounded in the livestream.
Little Deer was stunned for a moment.
He asked, “Yuan Yuan, is that you?”
Feng Yuan held his aunt’s tablet and replied, “It’s Yuan Yuan.”
Once Little Deer realized it was really him, he didn’t know whether to laugh or sigh.
“Why are you sending me gifts? Did you use a family member’s account?”
Love Yuan: “It’s Auntie’s tablet.”
Little Deer: “Then have your aunt apply for a minor refund later. If you need me, just message me directly.”
Love Yuan: “Sister said no refunds. Refunding is embarrassing.”
Love Yuan: “Godfather said I can watch you make clothes.”
Little Deer chuckled. “You want to see me make clothes? I’ve already made two pieces, and the little cape is done, too. I’ll show you in a bit.”
To make it easier to talk with Feng Yuan, he opened a live voice connection in the stream.
Now, Feng Yuan was speaking to him directly on mic.
The viewers who had originally been watching Little Deer play games slowly realized what was happening as they listened.
“That’s Yuan Yuan baby!”
“Oh my god! It’s really Yuan Yuan baby!”
“Ahhh, is that the little internet celeb who gets spanked? I finally caught him!”
“Yuan Yuan’s tiny baby voice is so cute! I could listen forever!”
“Streamer, streamer! Please ask. Next time Yuan Yuan gets hit, can it be streamed across the whole internet again? I want to hear it!”
Feng Yuan didn’t recognize many words, but Li Si, beside him, read the comments out loud.
“Little internet celeb who gets hit?”
Li Si stared at those few words, falling into deep thought.
Feng Yuan didn’t stay on mic with Little Deer for too long. He was afraid of interrupting Little Deer’s work.
“Little Deer, you go be busy, okay? Bye-bye, I won’t chat with you anymore.”
Feng Yuan had his sister help him exit the voice connection.
After Li Si closed it for him, she went straight to the search bar and typed in the words “little internet celeb who gets hit.”
As soon as she searched it, related videos popped up.
Li Si tapped one casually.
The next second, the sound of Feng Yuan getting hit came from the tablet.
Feng Yuan: “…”
He froze. “The little internet celeb who gets hit… is that Yuan Yuan?”
Qin Xun, beside him, stayed silent.
He had known about this “getting-hit internet celeb” thing for a while. He’d been afraid Feng Yuan would feel embarrassed if he saw it, so he hadn’t told him.
He never expected that after all these days…
The little one still managed to discover it.
Li Si checked the trending level of “little internet celeb who gets hit”. It was pretty high.
Feng Yuan hugged the tablet and kept watching.
Even though he couldn’t read many characters, he still recognized a few.
For example, the comment section is filled entirely with—
Hahaha.
