Pregnant With The Pup Of A Wealthy Old Man - Chapter 36 I Can, I Will
“Feeling uncomfortable again?” Fu Tingzhou sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to touch the young man’s forehead.
Shen Yunxing wrapped himself in the blanket, only showing his eyes and above.
He shook his head and whispered, “Mr. Fu, are you free tonight? Tang Ge and Dr. Liu have come to Yuncheng. They asked me to tell you that they’ve booked a place at the hot spring hotel. If you’re free tonight, they want to meet up. Tang Ge sent the address to your phone…”
As he spoke, his eyes widened suddenly.
He forgot to change the nickname!
Seeing the man about to unlock his phone, he quickly pulled back the blanket, looking nervous. “Mr. Fu, don’t look yet!”
Fu Tingzhou paused with his finger on the screen. “What’s wrong?”
“Can I borrow your phone for a moment? Mine’s out of battery, and I want to call Aunt Sun to let her know I won’t be coming home for dinner tonight,” Shen Yunxing said in a hurried tone.
“Sure.” Fu Tingzhou discreetly exited WeChat, turned off the screen, and handed the phone to the young man.
It was dark, Mr. Fu didn’t notice that the nickname had been changed!
Shen Yunxing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the screen was still dark. He quickly changed the nickname back to “Little Kid at Home” in WeChat, then dialed Aunt Sun’s number from the contacts list.
After informing Aunt Sun, he returned the phone to the man.
“Mr. Fu, I’m done.” He flashed a small dimple at him.
Seeing the man take back the phone without any suspicion, he felt completely relieved.
“What would you like for lunch?” After checking the address, Fu Tingzhou asked the young man, “The cafeteria or the Roman restaurant?”
Shen Yunxing shook his head. He didn’t know either. After a moment of thought, he said brightly, “Mr. Fu, let’s go to the company cafeteria.”
He had never seen what the food in a big company cafeteria was like.
“Okay.” Mr. Fu, who saw through the young man’s little thoughts, smiled and agreed.
The company’s fixed lunchtime was at noon. This wasn’t Fu’s Group, so there wasn’t a cafeteria exclusively for executives. Fu Tingzhou was worried that it would be too crowded and the young man wouldn’t be comfortable, so he took him to the cafeteria half an hour early.
Shen Yunxing had never worked before, so he didn’t know what the company cafeteria looked like, but he thought it should be similar to a school cafeteria. However, when he saw it today, he was truly amazed.
The cafeteria for employees at Shengshi Entertainment couldn’t even be called a cafeteria anymore. It was more like a mini-market, with Chinese and Western food, a bar, a coffee shop, and even several karaoke rooms!
No wonder everyone was eager to join Shengshi. With such good benefits, only fools wouldn’t want to come.
Listening to the faint singing coming from the karaoke rooms, Shen Yunxing was led by the man into a Chinese restaurant.
When the two entered, everyone sitting inside dropped their chopsticks.
“Oh my god, why is the big boss eating here!” One person shrank their neck and hid behind their companion. “Can’t see me, can’t see me, can’t…”
The companion was also scared but tried to straighten up. “Don’t be so timid, we worked overtime this morning, it’s not early to leave now.”
“I know, but it’s the first time I’ve seen the big boss, I’m nervous.” The latter’s voice trembled.
“Coward.” Actually, I’m nervous too QAQ.
“This looks good, want to try it?” Fu Tingzhou pointed to the menu and recommended to the young man.
Shen Yunxing nodded. Anything recommended by Mr. Fu wouldn’t be bad.
Not many people came to eat at this time. After waiting for half an hour, a delicious meal with three dishes and one soup was served.
“Smells so good.” Shen Yunxing’s eyes lit up, then he happily started eating, calling out to Mr. Fu.
Watching the young man eat eagerly, Fu Tingzhou shook his head and smiled.
Meanwhile, back in the CEO’s office, the news had already spread.
“To flaunt around with a just-turned-adult boy in the company like this, if it gets out, it will tarnish the reputation of Fu’s Group!” Fu Jiaming’s face turned livid with anger. “For a kid who hasn’t even grown up yet, he shifted the focus of his work from Lin’an City to Yuncheng. Does he really think he can do whatever he wants in Fu’s Group!”
“Honey, don’t be angry first.” Fu Jiaming’s wife, Cao Yueru, comforted softly over the phone, “We have a few old-timers left in the head office keeping an eye on things. As long as you ensure that you get that 15% stake in Fu’s Group, then Fu’s will be under our control.”
“Alright, when Fu’s Group falls into my hands, let’s see if Fu Tingzhou still dares to disregard me!”
…
…
In the afternoon at 6 o’clock, at the hot spring hotel.
“Lao Fu, Xiao Yunxing, you finally made it.” Tang Che walked up to the two, wearing an expression of relief.
“I can’t stand being alone with Mr. Liu anymore. I’ll suffocate if I have to.” He muttered to the two quietly.
“Tang Che, go wash your hands.” Behind him, Liu Huaijin frowned, looking disgusted.
Tang Che froze.
“What the heck, how did you know I forgot to wash my hands after using the toilet?!” He exclaimed, “Mr. Liu, you actually peeked while I was in the toilet!”
His loud voice attracted a crowd around them.
“Why are you making so much noise?” Liu Huaijin glanced at him, then said, “Do you need to peek? What should be seen and what shouldn’t be seen, haven’t you already seen it?”
“Oh~” The crowd around them started teasing, “So you guys are lovers quarreling.”
Tang Che got annoyed: “Who said we’re lovers? I like women with big chests and round butts!”
“Oh, so Tang Bro is the bottom in the relationship.” Shen Yunxing suddenly realized, he always thought Tang Che was the top.
“Nonsense, I’m the tough guy!” Tang Che patted his freshly shaved head.
“Forget about that, these days, I’ve been working like a laborer for the old man, almost exhausted. I need to relax.” He shrugged his shoulders, “Xiao Yunxing, bro has booked the entire second floor just for you. How about it, touched?”
“Thank you, Tang Bro.” Shen Yunxing smiled.
Tang Che stood with his hands on his hips, looking proud: “It’s nothing, just a small matter. When my godson is born, I’ll give you an even bigger gift. Unlike some people, so stingy they can’t even afford to soak in the hot spring without mooching off others.”
Liu Huaijin couldn’t be bothered to deal with him, after asking about Shen Yunxing’s recent situation, he led the two upstairs.
Although he was the one who paid, it seemed like he was the one freeloading now?
Tang Che frowned and muttered under his breath.
“Hey, wait for me!” While he was lost in thought, the three had already gone upstairs. He called out and hurried to catch up.
Ten minutes later, the four changed into their clothes and arrived at the hot spring poolside.
“Give me your hand, it’s slippery over there.” Fu Tingzhou reached out to the young man.
“Okay.” Shen Yunxing obediently placed his hand in the man’s palm, and under his guidance, carefully stepped into the pool.
Dr. Liu said that it’s not suitable for bathing during the early and late stages of pregnancy, but now he was in the middle stage and could soak for a while.
He hadn’t bathed for months, and as soon as he entered the water, the warm water flowed over his skin, making him feel like all his pores were opening up, incredibly comfortable.
But before he could soak for even ten minutes, he was called out by the man.
“Xiao Yunxing, be good, you’re not alone now. You have to be extra careful in everything! But don’t worry, once my godson is born, I promise to take you to a real hot spring pool for a proper soak!” Tang Che looked at the young man sitting by the poolside with envy.
“With Tingzhou here with him, do you still need to show your concern?” Liu Huaijin said.
“Mr. Fu, I want to go to the bathroom.” Shen Yunxing approached the man and said.
“Okay, do you want me to accompany you?” Fu Tingzhou smiled.
Shen Yunxing blushed: “No need, I’m not a child. I don’t need a parent to accompany me to the bathroom.”
Without waiting for the man to respond, he quickly left.
“Lao Fu, there’s been some movement at the Fu Family’s old mansion in Lin’an.” Tang Che spoke up once Shen Yunxing left, getting to the point, “Old Master Fu met with the Chen family and the Zheng family yesterday. It didn’t seem like much, but both of those families brought their daughters along. Since Fu Jiaming and Fu Jiarui are already married, I figured they might be preparing for a blind date for you.”
“The old mansion should already know about Yunxing’s situation.” Liu Huaijin continued, “What are you going to do? Do you want to reveal the child’s situation?”
“If you ask me, it’s simple. Just marry Yunxing directly, and that’s it.” Tang Che shrugged, “This way, the little guy will have a status, and the shares that Old Master promised me won’t be taken back. It’s a win-win.”
“I’ve known you for so many years, and you finally said something sensible.” Liu Huaijin glanced at him, saying leisurely.
Tang Che frowned, but when he met Liu Huaijin’s gaze, he immediately wilted.
“Lao Fu, I think marrying Yunxing is a good solution. You should consider it.”
Before Liu Huaijin could finish, Shen Yunxing walked out from behind the screen and exclaimed, “I can do it, I can handle it, I’m willing to help Mr. Fu with this!”
Mr. Fu is his, those Chen and Zheng family misses shouldn’t even think about it.
Besides, he, a man, and Mr. Fu already have a baby together. What does that mean? It means even the heavens approve of their relationship!
“Yunxing, I appreciate your willingness, but this is too big of a sacrifice for you.” Fu Tingzhou looked at the young man and said.
He had indeed thought about marrying Yunxing in the future, but not like this, without a confession or a proposal. It wouldn’t be fair to the young man.
“Mr. Fu, I’m willing.” Shen Yunxing took a step forward, looking a bit anxious, “And I heard that after the baby is born, both parents’ marriage certificate is needed to register the baby’s household registration. Otherwise, the baby will be unregistered!”
Liu Huaijin nodded, “Indeed, a marriage certificate is needed for the baby’s household registration.” But it’s not necessary, as long as you pay enough social maintenance fees, you can register the baby.
He didn’t say the latter half of the sentence, smiling at his good friend, waiting for his agreement.

“Yunxing, the matter of shares can be resolved in other ways. You don’t need to make such a big sacrifice for me.” Fu Tingzhou looked at the young man.
He had considered marrying Yunxing in the future, but not under these circumstances. It wouldn’t be fair to Yunxing without a proper proposal or confession.
“Mr. Fu, I’m doing this willingly.” Shen Yunxing stepped forward, looking a bit anxious. “Besides, I heard that after the baby is born, both parents need a marriage certificate for the baby’s household registration. Otherwise, the baby will be unregistered!”
Liu Huaijin nodded. “Indeed, a marriage certificate is required for the baby’s household registration.” But it’s not mandatory; you can register the baby by paying enough social maintenance fees.
He didn’t mention the latter part, smiling at his friend, waiting for his agreement.
“Yunxing, you don’t have to rush into this decision.” Fu Tingzhou’s voice was gentle but firm. “Let’s discuss this properly later. I don’t want you to feel pressured into anything.”
“Mr. Fu, I’ve made up my mind.” Shen Yunxing’s expression was resolute. “I want to do this for you.”
Fu Tingzhou sighed softly, seeing the determination in Shen Yunxing’s eyes. “Alright, we’ll talk about it later. But for now, let’s enjoy our time here.”
Tang Che chimed in, “That’s right, let’s not talk about heavy stuff now. We’re here to relax!”
The atmosphere lightened up as they continued their time at the hot spring.
