Pregnant With The Pup Of A Wealthy Old Man - Chapter 84

The show “Gun King” is the latest type of variety show. A week after it aired, it attracted countless viewers. On the day it premiered, the ratings soared, reaching the top of all variety show rankings within just three days. The show garnered numerous trending topics on Weibo, and countless netizens joined the discussion.

“This show is great! You get to see celebrities argue and also see how eSports stars live. I love it! [Thumbs up]”

“I’m just saying, Shen Yunxing plays games way too well for a celebrity! It’s not natural! [Rage from someone with bad gaming skills]”

“Plus one! I cursed him for being too arrogant when he talked tough in the first episode, but I got totally slapped in the face. Even Nan Ning wasn’t his match!”

“Not just strong, watching him compete against others feels like watching a professional player bullying newbies. His skills are absurdly strong!”

“Qin Yashuang and Tian Xia also play pretty well together. By the way, isn’t Wan Feng a game streamer? I remember he called himself the ‘Little Sniper God’ in his streams and seemed to have a grudge with our Xingxing. His arrogance was through the roof, but his skills…?”

“Stop talking. He plays poorly and is petty. I just said ‘Hi, how are you?’ on his Weibo, and my comment got deleted, and his fans almost cyberbullied me. [Lighting a cigarette]”

“Hahaha, you made me laugh. How could he not get angry if you comment like that on his Weibo?”

“He calls himself ‘Little Sniper God’, talks trash before the match, but gets played and then incites his fans to cyberbully others. His character is way worse than Nan Ning’s!”

“He’s done similar things many times before. As someone who used to be a fan of Wan Feng, I’m used to it [sick emoji]”

“Wan Feng posted on Weibo! Everyone, go check it out!”

…

Shen Yunxing had just put the baby to sleep and opened Weibo to check the fan topics, only to find his private messages exploding.

**[User StarYue]:** Go to hell, hacker!

**[User WanFengMyIdol]:** You stole Wan Feng’s account to play games, almost preventing him from participating in offline matches. How do you still have the nerve to join a variety show? [spit]

**[User ThisPersonIsDisgusting]:** Hackers don’t deserve to play games! I suggest you uninstall, or I’ll come after you every time I see you. My provincial ranking is in the top ten. If you’re not convinced, come fight me!

…

Messages like these went on for pages without end.

Frowning, he clicked into Wan Feng’s Weibo and saw the pinned post.

**[Wan Feng V]:** I didn’t want to say anything, but some people’s fans have been mocking and cursing on my Weibo, even involving my family. Yes, I did lose to someone in the game, but in real life, I believe I’m a hundred times better in character than this hacker. [6 images]

Wan Feng posted six screenshots from four years ago, showing his account being logged in from a different location, his game character renamed to “Yunxing Has Big Dreams,” and four screenshots of his conversation with the “hacker.” In the conversation, he politely asked for his account back, even offering to buy it back, but the other party not only refused but cursed him out before blocking him, displaying a vile attitude.

Shen Yunxing glanced at the comments and saw they were filled with sympathy and harsh criticisms towards himself, the “hacker.”

As he was scrolling through the comments, his phone rang—it was a call from Mr. Fu.

“Gege?”

“Mm, don’t worry about Wan Feng’s issue. I’ll have someone handle it,” Fu Tingzhou said in a low voice.

Just from his tone, Shen Yunxing could tell Mr. Fu was furious. He couldn’t help but smile warmly and refused, “No need for you to step in, I can handle it myself.”

It seemed Fu Tingzhou was in a meeting. Shen Yunxing heard a brief commotion on the other end before it quieted down after three or four seconds.

After a moment of silence, Fu Tingzhou said, “Alright, call me if you need any help.”

“Mm, I will. You go back to your meeting,” Shen Yunxing replied with a smile.

After hanging up, Shen Yunxing logged into his cloud drive and retrieved the screenshots he had saved from four years ago.

Ten minutes later—

**[Shen Yunxing V]:** Did you think I wouldn’t have proof to clear my name? Sorry, but I’m sentimental. [2 images]

One image was a long screenshot of his conversation with the original account owner when he bought the account, and the other was a screenshot of the original owner reclaiming the game account.

Netizens flocked to his Weibo to watch the drama unfold.

“Oh wow, things have turned around [eating popcorn]”

“Are hackers this brazen nowadays, biting back at buyers? If Xingxing didn’t have evidence, he’d be cyberbullied out of the industry by some online ‘police’!”

“Thank goodness! I was afraid my idol was going to be disgraced! Xingxing, I knew I wasn’t wrong about you. From today, I declare you the only fish in my pond! I’ll always support you! [green onion duck~]”

“This is hilarious. Anyone can post a photoshopped image as proof? And the photoshop is so bad. Who keeps four-year-old messages? If I’m not wrong, you were only fifteen back then, spending over two thousand on a game account, and endured being hacked without saying anything till now? Ridiculous! [picking nose]”

“I agree with the commenter above. Keeping four-year-old messages and conveniently having these two to prove your innocence? Way too coincidental.”

“Just saying, are all Wan Feng fans this double standard? If Shen Yunxing keeps four-year-old messages, it’s a coincidence. If Wan Feng does, it’s defending his rights? Tsk tsk, everyone think carefully. PS: I’m just a passerby, not a fan or anti-fan of either. Don’t argue with me, unless you can prove me wrong.”

“What proof do you need? Playing games and toying with others during a match shows a lack of respect for the arena. Such a person can’t be good in real life. Only those unhappy with their real lives find validation in games and online. [I’m disgusted]”

Finding this comment too offensive, Shen Yunxing immediately retorted, “You’re right, just like you.”

Then, he picked a few comments accusing him of photoshopping the pictures, arguing that no normal person would keep four-year-old chat records, and replied to each one.

Reply to [User Bad Luck Attached]: “We’ll see who’s photoshopping once we get a forensic analysis done. The question is, does a certain someone dare to do it? By the way, have you ever thought that your bad luck might be due to your filthy mouth?”

Reply to [User Won’t Lose 20 Pounds Live Eating Crap]: “Sorry, besides being sentimental, I’m also a top student. I was busy with the start of school back then and accidentally forgot about defending my rights. Also, I think live eating crap would be easier for you.”

Reply to [User Trouble Every Three Days]: “Sorry to disappoint you, but my parents are alive, my marriage is harmonious, my life is happy, and I have a super cute and adorable big son. PS: Stop trying to get attention on my Weibo, don’t force me to smack you. [smiley face]”

Seeing his replies, many fans and netizens commented:

“Hahaha, he’s literally my online spokesperson! When they were cursing Xingxing and I was too angry to argue back, I felt so hopeless [biting handkerchief]”

“Awesome, you’ve won me over [thumbs up]”

“Ahhh, how could I have only discovered such a good-looking, talented actor who’s also great at gaming today? By the way, does he always talk like this?”

“No, no, no, Xingxing is usually very well-behaved. He only lets loose online, hahaha.”

“Fan +1. I wanted to be his girlfriend fan, but I didn’t expect such a young guy to already have a kid [crying]”

“No, no, no, sis, you misunderstood. Xingxing is just roasting the haters [laughing out loud]”

Seeing that the issue was resolved, Shen Yunxing leaned down and kissed his baby on the cheek. He lay down beside his child, watching the little one sleep peacefully, and closed his eyes to catch up on some sleep.

When he woke up, Weibo seemed to have exploded again. After being exposed, Wan Feng was still unwilling to give up. He hired many internet trolls to accuse Shen Yunxing of faking data and having inside information on the show. They claimed Nan Ning and Jifeng, the former being a retired professional player and the latter being one of the top five marksmen in the game, couldn’t possibly lose to him.

However, before Shen Yunxing could respond, Liang Captain and the other three team captains personally came forward to clear things up for him.

**[QC.Liang V]:** “The data is normal, there’s no fraud or insider information. PS: The person I once heavily recruited is him. [smiley face] @Shen Yunxing”

Qin Tian, Xu Wen, and Gong Ye also posted on Weibo to support Shen Yunxing. Even the show’s production team and most of the participants spoke up for him.

As the situation escalated, Wan Feng’s reputation was completely ruined.

With everyone turning on him, several major fans exposed his past misdeeds. He was not only terminated and banned by his streaming platform but also faced a hefty penalty for breach of contract. In the future, he could only make a meager living by taking on minor gaming gigs.

Shen Yunxing dug out Liang Captain and the others’ WeChat contacts to thank them one by one, then hummed a tune and happily went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Around six o’clock, Fu Tingzhou came home and was greeted by the aroma of food.

With a slight smile, he hung up his clothes and walked into the kitchen, embracing the boy who was cooking.

“Smells delicious,” he said, his chin resting on the boy’s head.

Shen Yunxing laughed, “Gege, go change your clothes and wash your hands. Dinner will be ready as soon as I finish cooking this dish.” Saying this, he stood on tiptoe, turned his head to kiss the man, “Also, go check on Zhouzhou. He’s been asleep for over an hour and should be waking up soon.”

“Alright,” Fu Tingzhou said, kissing the boy’s earlobe.

Baby Zhouzhou had already woken up and was sucking on his fingers in his baby carriage, drooling.

Fu Tingzhou picked up his son, took him upstairs to change into clean clothes, and gave him a fresh diaper before starting to prepare milk for him.

“Mm-ah!” The little one called out to his father, urging him to hurry up.

Fu Tingzhou bounced his son a bit, “Little glutton, it’s almost ready.”

“Mm-ah!” Baby Zhouzhou, unable to understand adult speech, kicked his little feet in protest.

Fu Tingzhou chuckled, tested the temperature on his wrist, and then brought the bottle to the baby’s mouth.

Baby Zhouzhou latched on and started drinking eagerly.

“Gege, dinner’s ready,” Shen Yunxing came upstairs and saw Zhouzhou drinking milk with his chubby cheeks puffed up. He couldn’t resist lightly poking the baby’s white, tender cheek.

“Our Zhouzhou is getting chubbier. If you get any fatter, Daddy won’t be able to carry you anymore.”

“Mm!” The little one sucked hard on the bottle, his eyes focused solely on his milk.

“Little glutton,” Shen Yunxing said with a laugh.

After feeding the baby, the couple took their son downstairs and put him in the baby carriage to play by himself while they had dinner in the dining room.

“Gege, how’s the braised pork ribs today?” Shen Yunxing asked expectantly, his eyes wide.

Under the boy’s eager gaze, Fu Tingzhou took a bite and nodded, “Very good.”

Shen Yunxing immediately straightened his back and put several pieces of pork ribs into Mr. Fu’s bowl.

He bent his eyes at the man, “Gege, you’ve worked hard all day. Eat more.”

Fu Tingzhou’s eyes filled with a smile, “Okay.”

…

By the end of April, our baby Zhouzhou was over two months old and didn’t cry or fuss about not being able to sleep even when briefly separated from Daddy.

“Gege, is Zhouzhou asleep?” Shen Yunxing called his Mr. Fu before boarding the plane to Y City for the spring tournament qualifying match.

On the other end of the line, Fu Tingzhou glanced at the well-fed and just-fallen-asleep baby Zhouzhou and replied warmly, “Yes, he’s asleep. Don’t worry about the competition. Zhouzhou and I will be waiting for you at home.”

Shen Yunxing smiled and nodded.

“Okay.”

“Tsk, are you and Big Boss Fu always this lovey-dovey?” Xue Li, who was playing on his phone nearby, leaned over and asked.

Shen Yunxing raised his lips and deliberately said, “No, we’re even more lovey-dovey usually. Mr. Fu cooks delicious meals for me, wakes me up every day, and gives me flowers and gifts for every holiday, big or small.”

Xue Li: “…”

Xue Li felt a pang of jealousy and silently cursed himself, “Why did I ask?”

“Everyone, get your luggage; it’s time to board the plane,” Zhai Zilin said.

…

An hour later, the plane landed, and the four of them took a bus to the Y City Arena.

To win this qualifying match, the four of them had practiced hard at home for over half a month. They couldn’t guarantee the results, but at least they had worked hard for their shared dream. Looking back in the future, they wouldn’t have any regrets.

At the Y City Arena, they met Nan Ning and Jifeng again. They smiled and shook hands, expressing their anticipation for each other’s performance on the field.

There were fifty teams in the qualifying round. In the first round, Shen Yunxing’s team narrowly made it through, but in the second round, they faced Nan Ning and Jifeng’s team, as well as two professional teams from Y City. As a result, they stopped at the semifinals and couldn’t make it to the finals.

“It’s okay, we’ve already done great. I couldn’t even imagine that with my skills, I could make it to the semifinals,” Mo Yu comforted Xue Li.

Xue Li glanced at Shen Yunxing, who was playing on his phone silently, and said with frustration, “If I hadn’t made that mistake, we might have won this round.”

“No, we wouldn’t have won,” Shen Yunxing looked up after reporting their schedule to Mr. Fu and said, “The Dream Wild Team and the Luo Fan Team are well-trained professional teams from Y City. They are even better than some professional players. Even if it were Nan Ning and Jifeng, it wouldn’t be easy for them to win.”

He looked at Xue Li and said, “So you don’t need to feel guilty, and I’m not unhappy. I was just reporting our schedule to Mr. Fu.”

Xue Li, feeling heartbroken and guilty to the point of suffocation: “…”

Okay, I’m fine. A bit more dog food is fine too (smiley face).

Since it was their first time in Y City, the four of them decided to stay and play for a day before returning. They rescheduled their flights for the next morning.

After reporting the situation to the head of the family and getting approval, the group went out to have fun.

Y City had many attractions. The four of them climbed mountains, visited historical sites, and then went to a food street where they ate from one end to the other. They played until 8 PM before returning to the hotel.

After showering, Shen Yunxing lay down and had a video call with Mr. Fu and the baby.

“Zhouzhou, do you miss Daddy?”

“Mm-ah!” The little one, waiting for his father to change his clothes, lifted his chubby foot and put it in his mouth.

“Gege, Zhouzhou is sucking on his toes again!” he shouted into the screen.

“It’s fine, let him suck,” Fu Tingzhou appeared on the screen with a camera in hand and took a photo, capturing a piece of blackmail material.

“I’ve taken photos of all these moments,” Fu Tingzhou said.

Shen Yunxing looked at Mr. Fu’s mischievous smile and, after a moment of surprise, smiled along with him.

“Zhouzhou, when you grow up, Daddy and Father have a big gift for you.”

“Mm-ah~” Hearing Daddy’s voice, the little one stretched his feet towards the phone, drooling, as if inviting Daddy to take a bite.

“Daddy thinks Zhouzhou’s feet are stinky and won’t eat them.” Shen Yunxing glanced at Mr. Fu and teased, “Zhouzhou can invite Father instead.”

“Ah~” Baby Zhouzhou, not understanding, stared at the phone with big eyes and reached out with his chubby hands.

“Zhouzhou, Daddy bought you lots of toys and pretty clothes.” Shen Yunxing showed the little clothes he bought today to the baby.

Baby Zhouzhou, who liked bright colors, got excited seeing the colorful clothes and reached out, babbling for them.

“You like them too, don’t you, Zhouzhou?” Shen Yunxing laughed. “When Daddy gets back, we’ll dress you up in these pretty clothes, okay?”

“Mm-ah!” The little one, unable to grab them, was about to cry. Seeing this, Fu Tingzhou went to the nursery and found something similar in color to put on the baby, finally calming him down.

Shen Yunxing laughed, “Our Zhouzhou is so pretty.”

Fu Tingzhou took a few photos of the baby. After ending the video call, he sent one to the boy.

**[Xingzhou is a Good Baby]:** So cute!

After sending it, Shen Yunxing opened the picture and saved it with a smile.

**[mon amour]:** It’s late. Go to bed. I’ll pick you up at the airport tomorrow.

**[Xingzhou is a Good Baby]:** Okay, good night, Gege. [Cat Kiss]

**[mon amour]:** Good night, baby.

…

Early the next morning, the three of them were shocked to see Shen Yunxing dragging two suitcases out.

“Wait, I remember you didn’t even fill half a suitcase when we came. How come you have two now?” Xue Li went over to help but misjudged the weight and couldn’t lift it on the first try.

“What did you put in there, twenty toilet seats? It’s so heavy.”

A nearby young lady overheard their conversation and couldn’t help but glance at the suitcases.

“You’re the one stealing toilet seats.” Shen Yunxing glared at him. “These are gifts I brought for Mr. Fu and Zhouzhou.”

“All of them?” Xue Li gestured.

Shen Yunxing nodded.

“Oh my gosh,” Xue Li said exaggeratedly, “Did you buy all of Y City?”

“It’s not that exaggerated,” Shen Yunxing said as he put the suitcase in the taxi trunk.

At eight o’clock, after a one-hour flight, Shen Yunxing finally saw the tall figure of Mr. Fu at the arrival gate, holding the baby who was curiously looking around with big eyes.

“Gege!” He stood on tiptoe and waved with a smile.

## Author’s Note:

Third-grade Zhouzhou, looking at his ten full albums of blackmail material, couldn’t help but pack his little suitcase.

**Zhouzhou (dialing on his smartwatch):** Junjun, I’m running away from home. Can you take me in?
