Feng Xuran, on the other hand, felt that he looked familiar. Tilting her head for a moment, she couldn’t help but step back, holding his brother’s hand tightly, and said seriously, “Chenchen, you must be polite. He’s our dad!”
“Dad?” Feng Xuchen thought seriously for a moment, tilting his head in confusion. “But isn’t Dad working hard to earn money for the family?”
He could clearly hear the woman behind him laughing, and Feng Yan’s cold eyebrows couldn’t help but show a hint of helplessness.
Are you on the phone now? So let’s do it like this—”
He imitated the action of withdrawing money from the bank: “Just say it on the phone, and you can take money from Dad to buy things!”
“Oh, wait.” Feng Xuchen thought for a moment, then suddenly shook his head, extending his arm to gesture seriously, “Xiaxia said that Dad is especially handsome, like a donkey that conscientiously plows the field!”
Handsome donkey: “…”
His temple twitched slightly, unable to help but look back at Sheng Xia.
Sheng Xia obviously heard the little guy betraying her with those words. She almost immediately changed from mocking to innocent, then gently and weakly supported her forehead, swaying as if about to collapse, weakly saying, “Oh, I feel a bit dizzy, must be too tired today, why can’t I hear anything?”
Feng Xuran quickly covered his brother’s mouth, speechless, “Idiot, didn’t everyone say that Mom was just teasing you? You really believe it.”
Seeming afraid that he would vent his anger on Sheng Xia, she immediately raised her head alertly and explained, “Because Dad, you haven’t been back for a long time, and Chenchen asked Mom where you went. Mom was just telling a story to make my brother happy, not intentionally saying that.”
She gently pushed her brother again, “Quickly apologize to Dad.”
Although they had a fixed call every week, because Feng Yan didn’t know how to communicate with the children, the twins didn’t feel a real connection to “Dad,” and they were actually very unfamiliar with each other.
Especially after perfunctorily chatting for a few sentences, the twins always found reasons to hang up the phone.
On the contrary, Feng Jingxu, even though he had a bad temper, could still manage to communicate with Feng Yan somewhat calmly when he called.
“Yes, sorry, Dad, Chenchen didn’t mean it.”
I don’t know what he imagined, but tears welled up in Feng Xuchen’s dark grape-like eyes. He grabbed Feng Yan’s sleeve in a panic and apologized, “Dad, if you’re angry, just be angry at Chenchen. You can hit Chenchen, don’t drive Xiaxia away!”
He then persistently asked, “Where’s Xiaxia? Did you take over her room and drive her away?”
Sensing the twins’ concern and reliance on Sheng Xia, Feng Yan squatted down to meet their gaze. “Dad is not angry, and hitting someone is wrong, so even if I’m angry, I will never hit Chenchen or Ranran.”
However, even though he tried to soften his voice, he naturally had a cold face that was not easy to approach, especially with an oppressive sense of authority. The two little ones had only seen him on the screen before, so when they actually met, they couldn’t help but shrink back and tremble.
However, the ridiculous floppy rabbit ears on his head, knowing that his nephew had worn the same style, gave them a little sense of security. Thinking of what Sheng Xia said during the day about the family wearing headbands together, the two little ones quickly accepted the fact that the man in front of them was their dad who always appeared on the screen.
With a bit more courage, Feng Xuchen timidly peeked out from behind his sister, “Really, you’re not angry?”
Feng Yan nodded, then looked at Feng Xuran, who was pursing her lips and looking alert, “And you shouldn’t be the ones apologizing. It’s been so long since I came back to see you. It’s natural that you don’t recognize me. Dad should be the one apologizing.”
“Sorry, I’ve only come back now. Can Chenchen and Ranran forgive Dad?”
Feng Xuran hesitated, awkwardly turned her head, and refused to answer.
While Feng Xuchen asked stubbornly, “Where’s Xiaxia?”
Seeing the little ones getting really anxious, Sheng Xia reached out a finger and gently tapped the man’s back. She could clearly feel him tense up suddenly, then turn to look at her.
Sheng Xia nodded gracefully to him. “Excuse me, could you move aside? The road ahead is too crowded, and there’s a traffic jam.”
Feng Yan stood up silently and made way for her.
Then he watched as she manipulated the wheelchair to gradually move backward. Before he could wonder, he suddenly felt the two little ones who had been by his legs just a moment ago, sprinting like they were in a hundred-meter dash, and rushing into Sheng Xia’s arms. The wheelchair was completely squeezed against the wall.
Feeling a cold breeze, Feng Yan said, “…Oh, so this is the kind of crowding?”
“Xiaxia, are you okay?” Feng Xuchen skillfully squeezed into Sheng Xia’s arms and asked nervously, “Did Dad bully you?”
Although Feng Xuran didn’t ask, her vigilant gaze kept sweeping over Sheng Xia, as if checking for injuries.
Wow, why are the two little ones so considerate?
Sheng Xia hugged them tightly, feeling happy, and lazily said, “Why would he bully me?”
“This is Xiaxia’s room, but we knocked on the door just now, and he opened it!” Feng Xuchen couldn’t help but complain angrily, “Did he have nowhere to sleep, so he came to take Xiaxia’s room?”
Feng Xuran corrected him seriously, “Silly Chenchen, Dad should sleep here in the first place, with Mom.”
Feng Xuchen widened his bright eyes. “Really? Why?”
“There’s no reason, Mom and Dad should sleep on the same bed.” Feng Xuran thought carefully and answered seriously, “That’s how all the dads and moms in kindergarten are.”
“Poor Dad, he can only squeeze with Mom.” Feng Xuchen suddenly turned his head to look at Feng Yan, his voice soft and tender, “But it’s okay, if Dad has nowhere to sleep, Chenchen is willing to give his bed to Dad.”
Feng Yan wanted to be symbolically moved, but the little one didn’t hide his envy in his eyes at all.
It was clear to everyone that he wasn’t really being considerate and giving up his bed because he felt sorry for Dad; He was just envious that Dad could sleep with Mom.
Sure enough, the next moment, he exclaimed happily, “Then Chenchen and big sister can sleep with Mom!”
Hehe, Chenchen’s plan worked out!
Although Feng Xuran didn’t say anything, her eyes clearly lit up.
Feng Yan was gratified to see that she obviously struggled a bit, then quickly buried her face in Sheng Xia’s neck after glancing at him, looking guilty.
Sheng Xia hugged the two little ones, her misty black eyes showing a soft and moving expression. “Honey, look how caring our babies are. With such filial piety, I believe you will definitely agree, right?”
She blinked slightly, speaking gently and understandingly, “Honey, rest assured, I have Chenchen and Ranran to accompany me here, so you don’t need to specially accompany me.”
Seeing the three of them huddled together, all looking wary of him, Feng Yan couldn’t help but find it amusing. He pinched his brow slightly, suppressing the urge to tease them further.
Forget it, it’s already late. It’s not good to tease her anymore.
With her schedule, she probably won’t be able to wake up tomorrow morning, and it wouldn’t look good if the people in the live broadcast room saw her.
So he just nodded to them, considerately said “goodnight,” and turned around, leaving them with a calm back view.
The rabbit ears on his head also swayed with his movements. Sheng Xia couldn’t help but feel a bit itchy to touch them, so she couldn’t resist rubbing the twins’ black fluffy hair instead.
At this moment, the system couldn’t hold back any longer and spoke up: “Host, you must not be deceived by Feng Yan. He has actually been…”
“Are you all trying to test me?” Sheng Xia lazily interrupted, not surprised at all. She even joked, “Finally, you’re willing to show up. I thought you were sulking and not talking to me.”
The system was stunned: “…You know?”
After a pause, it politely explained, “Please don’t misunderstand, I wasn’t sulking or trying to be mad at you. Although you broke character during the day, I thought it was understandable. I just didn’t think it was the right time to disturb you after analyzing the situation.”
The earnest system was really amusing.
Sheng Xia immediately replied with a smile, “Feng Yan is naturally perceptive, so he must have noticed that something was off with me. I thought we were already clear on this?”
“Then why—” The system stuttered, “What you just did…”
“Oh, but in the original plot, he hardly appeared, and his attitude wouldn’t affect the plot points, right?” Sheng Xia blinked confidently. “You said before that as long as both I and the female lead participate in the program, it will stabilize the plot points, and other changes won’t matter.”
“Besides, even if he is suspicious of me, what can he do?” Her voice was gentle and considerate, and she even gave it a sweet heart in her mind. “Just rest assured, I know my limits, and you should trust your partner.”
The system: …No, it was even more uneasy now.
The host simply doesn’t understand the concept of “limits.”
Unable to persuade her, it could only obediently mute itself, then thought indignantly, “The host is becoming more and more blatant in her laziness. Clearly taking advantage of my soft heart, she turns off the warning program and deceives me openly!”
It should have warned her properly when the host’s plot collapsed during the day!
The system deeply reflected, if it wasn’t worried about short-circuiting, it might have to reluctantly shed a tear.
After a nice sleep, Sheng Xia, as expected, woke up late in the midsummer.
If it wasn’t for the system loudly announcing the time in her mind, she might have really slept until noon.
Yawning lazily, she looked down and saw that the two little bundles in her arms had already woken up, their clear eyes playing with their fingers silently.
Seeing that Mommy had finally woken up, Feng Xuchen immediately kissed her face happily, “Good morning, Xiaxia! Did you sleep better with Chenchen and Sister with you last night?”
Feng Xuran tried to sit up, seriously saying, “It’s already ten o’clock, Mom. Everyone is waiting downstairs.”
Before Sheng Xia could reply, she heard her phone ringing. It was Feng Yan.
Finally recalling what happened last night, she answered the phone, hearing the man’s deep voice on the other end, “Xia Xia, are you awake?”
Sheng Xia didn’t feel like moving much and just replied slowly.
Feng Yan seemed to smile, “Then wait until you’re done getting ready, and we’ll go downstairs together.”
“You haven’t gone downstairs yet?”
Feng Yan answered, “I went down for a bit, but I haven’t had breakfast yet.”
So he was waiting specifically for her to have breakfast together.
Sheng Xia pondered. Because she knew the camera was on, was he trying his best to cooperate with her, not letting her be alone to avoid giving others an excuse?
Although he appeared cold and unapproachable, he was actually quite sensitive, and he did well in certain details.
Perhaps when he was browsing Weibo yesterday, she noticed this, so he deliberately waited for her.
Mature and reliable men were indeed different. Sheng Xia felt even better. Although she didn’t care about what others said, having someone help pay attention and solve problems would still make her happy.
So, after waiting for Sheng Xia to appear, the audience finally gave up.
Not there, she indulged in sleeping until after nine every day. When Feng Yan came back, she had to behave more virtuously. Who would have thought she ended up waking up even later? Goodness, I’m overthinking it.
Last night, Feng Yan finally came back. They were already married, so they must have done something intimate, right? Feng Yan seems very powerful, so it’s normal for Xia Xia to wake up late. Hehe.
Help, did exhaust fumes just float by? Don’t forget, Sheng Xia’s leg isn’t fully healed yet. Feng Yan wouldn’t be that much of an animal, right?
It wasn’t until the clock slowly struck half-past ten that the elevator door finally opened.
The cold and noble man pushed the delicate and beautiful Sheng Xia, slowly appearing in front of the camera.
At this moment, not only were the barrage cheering, but also Feng Jingxu, who had been waiting for them, finally looked up.
Gradually, a subtle and complex expression appeared on his face.
“You, finally awake?” He didn’t even look at Feng Yan, just said with a strange tone, “Do you even know what time it is? Chenchen and Ranran are being influenced by you.”
In the past, his sarcastic words would surely have been countered by Sheng Xia. However, this time, she just smiled and looked at him.
Seemingly aware of her gaze, Feng Jingxu couldn’t help but glance around, and in the end, gritted his teeth and turned his head, “What are you looking at?!”
