Pregnant With The Pup Of A Wealthy Old Man - Chapter 61

At the dining table, Shen Yunxing stole several glances at Dr. Liu, whose lips were still marked from being bitten. Liu Huaiqin’s complexion was rosy, and his lips curled into a smile.

So they’ve made up?

As Shen Yunxing ate the dishes Fu Tingzhou had served him, he glanced at Tang Che, who was grinning broadly and looking quite sycophantic.

“Try this dish; I learned it from Lao Fu,” Tang Che said, nervously taking a sip of water.

Liu Huaiqin nodded and, after tasting it, said, “Mm, not bad.”

Tang Che was pleased, “If you like it, I’ll make it for you every day!”

Liu Huaiqin, who had been drinking water, paused for a moment. “…There’s no need for that.”

It was both salty and sweet with a hint of sourness. He couldn’t quite understand how Tang Che had managed to create such a complex flavor in a single dish.

Hearing this, Tang Che’s smile faltered.

“Don’t like it?”

“…I do like it.” They had just reconciled; it was better to keep him happy.

“Alright! From now on, I’ll take care of all the washing and cooking at home!” Tang Che patted his chest, feeling quite proud of himself.

“Eat up; Grandpa is watching,” Liu Huaiqin said with red ears, speaking quietly.

Tang Che grinned, showing no embarrassment. “Let him watch; Grandpa already considers you part of the Tang family.”

“You’re the one who’s part of the family!”

“Mm, that’s right. You’re my husband, and I’m your newly married little wife. Can I, your dear little wife, serve you a sausage? Your dear little wife can’t reach it~”

At these words, the chopsticks of the other three at the table all paused.

Shen Yunxing tried hard not to laugh, stuffing his mouth full of rice to hide his amusement.

“Slow down, or you’ll choke,” Fu Tingzhou said, patting the boy’s back.

Even Grandpa Tang, who had seen many things in life, was a bit taken aback by the sudden transformation of his straightforward grandson.

“Tang Che, speak normally!” Liu Huaiqin said through gritted teeth.

“Alright, alright, don’t be angry,” Tang Che quickly apologized.

The family finished their lively lunch. Tang Che, unable to stay at home, suggested going for a walk on the mountain.

Grandpa Tang stayed behind, and the four of them paired off, hand in hand, and went to the back mountain.

Shen Yunxing and Fu Tingzhou walked ahead, only to find that the other two were missing when they turned a corner.

“Mr. Fu, Brother Tang and Dr. Liu are gone,” Shen Yunxing said, looking around. All he could see were trees and no sign of them.

“Don’t worry about them,” Fu Tingzhou said, squeezing the boy’s hand. “Are you cold?”

Shen Yunxing shook his head, still wondering when they left. Then he heard some rustling noises from behind a nearby tree, followed by Liu Huaiqin walking out, wiping his mouth.

“I have things to do at the hospital. I’m going back first,” Liu Huaiqin said with an unnatural expression.

“I’ll see him off!” Tang Che said, quickly running after him.

Shen Yunxing watched the direction they left in, his eyes widening slowly.

Is this what they call a “wild battle” in novels?

“Stop overthinking,” Fu Tingzhou, who knew the boy well, said with a sigh. “It’s getting chilly. Let’s head back.”

His cheeks flushed, Shen Yunxing insisted, “I wasn’t thinking about anything.”

Seeing Fu Tingzhou smiling without saying anything made his ears even warmer.

“I’m so tired. I want to go back and sleep,” Shen Yunxing yawned.

Fu Tingzhou didn’t push the issue. He said indulgently, “Alright.”

Instead of returning to the farmhouse, they called Grandpa Tang and drove straight back to the Xinkan Villa.

Once home, Fu Tingzhou had Shen Yunxing really fall asleep before getting up to pack the boy’s things for the next day’s shoot.

When Shen Yunxing woke up, seeing his packed suitcase made him feel both sweet and painful. 

Sweet because Fu Tingzhou had taken such meticulous care of him, and painful because he would be apart from him the next day. The thought of not being able to sleep with Fu Tingzhou made him feel he would definitely suffer from insomnia QAQ!

“Awake?” Fu Tingzhou entered with a cup of honey water and was met with Shen Yunxing throwing himself into his arms.

“Mm.” Shen Yunxing hugged the man’s waist, his voice muffled. “I have to go to Weicheng for filming this time. It’ll take two to three hours by plane.”

“How long will you be filming?” Fu Tingzhou asked, stroking the boy’s hair.

“I don’t know the exact duration. Director Zheng values this project a lot. His previous shows took at least three to four months, so this one will probably be similar.”

“But I don’t have many scenes, and Director Qin and Director Zheng know about my situation. I’ll do my scenes first, so it should wrap up in a month or two.”

Two months is sixty days. The thought of being apart from Fu Tingzhou for so long made Shen Yunxing’s heart ache.

“Weicheng? I’m actually going to Weicheng for a business trip soon, and I’ll be there for about half a month.” Fu Tingzhou, who had already instructed Secretary Yang to cancel all his business trips to be with Shen Yunxing, said.

“Really?” Shen Yunxing’s eyes lit up.

Seeing the man nod, he happily revealed his dimples.

“I’ll make a phone call. You stay here and drink your honey water. Then come downstairs for dinner,” Fu Tingzhou said with a smile.

“Okay~” Shen Yunxing’s eyes curved in a smile as he kissed the man’s chin.

Fu Tingzhou fondly patted the boy’s head and went to the study to call Secretary Yang.

“Boss, you don’t have any business trips planned recently…”

“Then see which companies are worth cooperating with or acquiring.”

Secretary Yang: “…?”

Which blind person offended the boss?

No, wait! The filming location for the little wife’s new drama seems to be Weicheng!

Realizing this, Secretary Yang was excited for three seconds before quickly regaining her professional composure. “Okay, boss, I’ll have someone investigate right away. I’ll report back by noon tomorrow.”

“Mm.” Fu Tingzhou was somewhat satisfied and, not wanting to make things difficult for Secretary Yang, gave a few instructions before hanging up the phone.

With the separation looming tomorrow, Shen Yunxing clung to Fu Tingzhou during dinner, moving his chair to sit next to him. After dinner, he followed Fu Tingzhou into the kitchen to help wash the dishes and even stood guard outside the bathroom while Fu Tingzhou showered.

“Want to wash together?” Fu Tingzhou asked, noticing the reluctance in Shen Yunxing’s eyes, with a soft laugh.

He expected Shen Yunxing to shy away, but he underestimated how bold Shen Yunxing could be.

“Can we?” Shen Yunxing’s eyes lit up, his expression a mix of shyness, excitement, and eagerness.

Fu Tingzhou’s chest tightened. He reached out to caress Shen Yunxing’s flushed lips, his voice low and husky, “Baby, are you trying to seduce me?”

Shen Yunxing’s lashes fluttered. 

The man’s fingers were hot against his lips, making Shen Yunxing feel like his whole body was on fire. In an instant, his limbs felt weak, and he quickly grabbed Fu Tingzhou’s arm to steady himself.

“Well, yes, I am trying to seduce you. What, Mr. Fu, are you scared?” Shen Yunxing mustered his courage to say.

His words ended, his eyes were already red from embarrassment.

Fu Tingzhou’s pupils narrowed, and he tightened his grip on Shen Yunxing’s wrist, pulling him into an embrace. The next moment, amidst Shen Yunxing’s surprised gasp, he lowered his head and kissed him.

…

The next morning, Shen Yunxing woke up to find himself in Fu Tingzhou’s arms. He had wrapped himself around Fu Tingzhou like an octopus, his sleeping posture was anything but graceful.

His face turned red as he observed Fu Tingzhou’s expression and saw that he seemed still asleep. He tried to move his legs back, but as soon as he shifted, the man woke up.

“Why are you up so early?” Fu Tingzhou, eyes still closed, kissed Shen Yunxing’s forehead. His voice, still husky and seductive, made Shen Yunxing’s heart flutter.

“Mm…” Shen Yunxing, with a red face, stuttered and couldn’t speak clearly.

He covered his thumping heart with his hand, feeling utterly flustered. 

Could it be that he’s been reading too many adult books lately? Just a look or a move from Fu Tingzhou made his legs go weak…

He glanced at the man, hoping to slip away before Fu Tingzhou noticed. But they were pressed so closely together that even the smallest movement was noticeable to Fu Tingzhou.

“Be good, stay still for a bit,” Fu Tingzhou said, his voice even lower and more husky than before.

Shen Yunxing stiffened, burying his head deeper into Fu Tingzhou’s embrace, too embarrassed to move.

About ten minutes later, he couldn’t hold it any longer and, in a very quiet voice, said, “Mr. Fu, I need to use the bathroom…”

Upon hearing this, Fu Tingzhou couldn’t help but laugh softly. He rubbed Shen Yunxing’s head and released him.

“Go ahead.”

Shen Yunxing, with red ears, climbed out of the man’s arms. Seeing the smile in Fu Tingzhou’s eyes made his cheeks flush even more.

He pressed his lips together, trying to appear experienced as he dressed. However, he was so flustered that when he looked in the mirror in the bathroom, he realized none of his buttons were done up correctly…

Ah, so embarrassing!

He covered his face and silently shouted in his mind.

It wasn’t the first time, so why was he still so flustered? Fu Tingzhou remained so calm!

What Shen Yunxing didn’t know was that Fu Tingzhou was also not entirely calm but was simply hiding it.

After breakfast at exactly seven o’clock, it was time to leave despite the reluctance.

Although Shen Yunxing hated to part with Fu Tingzhou, acting was also an inseparable part of his life. It was impossible for him to give it up.

Fortunately, Fu Tingzhou supported him wholeheartedly.

Forty minutes later, at the airport.

“Call me when you arrive,” Fu Tingzhou said, holding Shen Yunxing close. “Do you remember the things I reminded you on the way here?”

Shen Yunxing nodded. “Listen to Secretary Yang, don’t eat anything cold, don’t drink alcohol, and don’t get too close to male actors, or female ones either.”

Seeing him recite the reminders word for word, Fu Tingzhou smiled. “Just remember.”

“You need to follow these rules too,” Shen Yunxing said, looking up at the man’s chin and adding, “If you cheat, the Fu Corporation will belong to me!”

Fu Tingzhou smiled, leaned down, and kissed Shen Yunxing’s lips, his forehead resting against the boy’s. “It already belongs to you.”

Shen Yunxing’s heart fluttered, and he hugged Fu Tingzhou tightly, smiling like a silly little fool.

“Mr. Fu, it’s almost time to board.” Secretary Yang, who didn’t want to be a third wheel but had a strong sense of professionalism, reminded him.

Fu Tingzhou nodded and released Shen Yunxing. “Go on.”

Shen Yunxing waved at the man. “Mr. Fu, I’ll be waiting for you to visit the set.”

To avoid worrying Fu Tingzhou, he kept smiling throughout, but once he boarded the plane, his small face immediately fell.

Secretary Yang, seeing the boy’s sudden loss of spirit, pulled out a small toy from her bag with a mysterious air.

“Yunxing, look at this.”

Just after parting from Fu Tingzhou, Shen Yunxing couldn’t muster much enthusiasm for anything. Out of courtesy, he looked up and saw the toy swaying in front of him. His eyes instantly brightened.

“Mr. Fu!” He hugged the toy, his face full of joy.

“This was hard to get. When you get back, you have to speak well of me in front of the boss,” Secretary Yang joked.

“No problem! I’ll get Mr. Fu to give you a raise!”

“Great!”

Secretary Yang had said this to cheer the boy up and hadn’t really thought much about the small incident on the plane.

It wasn’t until she was informed of a 5% pay raise that she remembered the toy and wanted to hug and kiss her boss’s wife with gratitude!
