CHAPTER 125: CHAPTER 126: XINGXING IS MY DADDY

"Um..."

As the car just entered Times Garden, Ruan Xingwen woke up on his own.

When he saw that he was currently in Yu Xiaozhe’s arms, he quickly jumped away.

With a "thunk" sound, Yu Xiaozhe also blurted out "careful," creating a harmony.

"Ow! That hurts!"

Ruan Xingwen held his head and fell back onto the car seat. He had been so startled that his movement was too large, making the impact quite strong.

Yu Xiaozhe, sitting beside him, raised his hand to rub his head gently.

To be honest, Ruan Xingwen’s impact did alleviate a lot of the earlier embarrassment, at least that’s how Ruan Xingwen himself felt.

"Uh, I’m fine now, Brother Ze."

Ruan Xingwen moved back a bit, avoiding Yu Xiaozhe’s hand.

Yu Xiaozhe naturally withdrew his hand and didn’t mention the fact that Ruan Xingwen had been sleeping on his shoulder.

Everything about Xingxing is great, except for being too shy.

"We’re here; let’s get out of the car."

After saying that, Yu Xiaozhe was the first to turn and get off the car.

Once the car door opened, cold air rushed into the warm car, making Ruan Xingwen shiver.

If his head was still a bit groggy earlier, he was now completely awake, and even the pain from his earlier bump had eased a lot.

Ruan Xingwen walked quickly to catch up with Yu Xiaozhe, who was already out of the car.

Zhang He lowered the car window and asked, "Is there a lot of stuff? Or maybe the two of us should help?"

Ruan Xingwen quickly stopped them from getting out of the car,

"Sister He, no need to help; it’s just one pet, it will be quick to get it out."

Zhang He was puzzled. Pet? Ruan Xingwen hadn’t mentioned anything about it before?

Yu Xiaozhe also hadn’t heard Ruan Xingwen mention a pet, and there were clearly no signs of a pet in the old house this afternoon.

Maybe Xingxing had left it with a friend.

Yu Xiaozhe had already come up with an explanation for Ruan Xingwen in his mind.

Zhang He slowly rolled up the car window, watching through the glass as the two walked away.

To be honest, at least in terms of height and appearance, the two matched quite well.

"Little Mu, do you think..."

She left her sentence half-finished, not knowing how to phrase it.

Should she ask if they match?

Clearly, she had known Yu Xiaozhe for around twenty years, and she had never seen anyone as down-to-earth as Ruan Xingwen make Yu Xiaozhe so lively.

Since discovering Ruan Xingwen’s existence, Yu Xiaozhe had been more emotionally volatile than in the previous ten years combined.

As for whether they match...

Does she think matching is important? What’s important is that Yu Xiaozhe himself has fallen hard, and Ruan Xingwen doesn’t seem indifferent towards Yu Xiaozhe.

"Oh well, just let nature take its course."

Zhang He didn’t exactly expect this introverted guy to give her an answer; she’d just had a little too much to drink and was a bit chatty tonight.

After all, Li Mu wasn’t an outsider.

"The boss knows what he’s doing, don’t worry."

Zhang He looked at Li Mu in surprise; she hadn’t expected him to answer her unasked question.

She leaned back, leisurely looking at the typically silent person, joking,

"What, is Little Mu concerned about the boss’s love life too?"

Li Mu shook his head, remaining silent.

Sigh, this introvert is so hard to communicate with. Whoever ends up with him in the future will be driven crazy by his personality!

Zhang He shook her head repeatedly in her mind, completely oblivious to the flag she was setting for her future self...

"Whew..."

Ruan Xingwen opened the door to the old house, but before he could catch his breath, a small figure rushed toward him, only to trip over its own right foot and fall face down at Ruan Xingwen’s feet.

Ruan Xingwen was stunned by this scene.

How could there be a child in the house?!

Hmm?!?!

Yu Xiaozhe, behind him, saw Ruan Xingwen standing dazed at the door and was a bit puzzled. He walked forward a bit but didn’t find anything unusual.

But when he looked down at the floor, he was also stunned.

A child?!

The little kid lying on the floor, seeing that Xingxing didn’t help, felt a bit aggrieved and spoke up,

"Oww, it hurts, Xingxing blow on it~"

The little kid, seeing Ruan Xingwen still motionless, had no choice but to climb up on his own and sit properly.

Stretching out two chubby, lotus-like arms, he pleaded, "Xingxing hug~"

Ruan Xingwen looked down at the little kid’s every move and those familiar dark eyes, unsure, he spoke up:

"Little Qilin?"

"Yes! It’s me, hug hug~"

Ruan Xingwen mechanically bent down to pick him up, feeling the chill from the little kid’s body.

He hurried inside, grabbed a blanket, and wrapped up the little kid, muttering,

"Why didn’t you dress more warmly? It’s so cold!"

The little kid was wrapped tightly, only a small head peeking out.

Tilting his head, he said,

"But there aren’t any clothes this big at home~" His eyes blinked rapidly.

Unconsciously acting cute, Ruan Xingwen felt his heart gently pricked.

Uwu! So cute! So adorable!

"Then where did the set you’re wearing come from?"

Ruan Xingwen’s voice softened unconsciously, as if talking to a real baby.

"You mean this?"

Little Qilin wriggled a bit within the blanket, sticking out his little arm and shaking the sleeve of his black outfit.

Ruan Xingwen nodded.

"Oh, I made this myself!"

He said, raising his chin proudly, waiting for Ruan Xingwen to praise him.

Ruan Xingwen was speechless. He could make this, but couldn’t make something thicker?!

"Uh..."

Seeing Ruan Xingwen’s speechless expression, Little Qilin seemed to realize he had said something silly.

His chubby hand covered his mouth, laughing "hehehe."

However, the two seemed to have forgotten the third person in the room.

Yu Xiaozhe watched as Ruan Xingwen picked up the little kid and then busied himself with getting a blanket, thoughtfully not making a sound, closing the door quietly.

He listened to their conversation, but he couldn’t quite understand.

Make what? Is the outfit made?

"Hungry?"

"Not hungry, Yun Jing got me something from the fridge when they came back."

Little Qilin patted his belly, indicating it was full.

But the newly mentioned name made Yu Xiaozhe, standing aside, even more puzzled.

Little Qilin glanced around in Ruan Xingwen’s arms and noticed another person in the room.

He patted Ruan Xingwen’s arm with his chubby little hand,

"Xingxing, who is this person?"

Ruan Xingwen remembered that Yu Xiaozhe had also come with him.

"Cough, um, Brother Ze, sorry, I was a bit distracted just now and forgot to introduce you..."

Yu Xiaozhe waved his hand, "No worries, I’m quite familiar with this place." he said, jokingly for once.

With these words, Little Qilin in Ruan Xingwen’s arms became a bit excited.

With a child’s naturally high-pitched voice, combined with his excitement, his voice became even shriller,

"Xingxing! Who is he! Why is he so familiar with our home!"

"Uh..."

What should he be called?

Brother Yu?

Doesn’t seem right.

Then Uncle Yu?

Yeah, let’s go with that.

"He’s Yu Xiaozhe, you can call him Uncle Yu."

As for how to explain Little Qilin, he hadn’t thought about it yet. Perhaps he could say a relative temporarily left the child with him due to an emergency.

Although full of loopholes, it was at least some explanation!

However, before he could say anything, Little Qilin’s next words left Yu Xiaozhe completely stunned.

"Hello, Uncle Yu, I’m Xingxing’s baby, and Xingxing is my daddy~"
