Leaving the police station, they went straight home.
Chu Fang drove, while Zhong Tingyue sat in the passenger seat, playing with the child.
"Aah!"
"Little bug, little bug, fly..."
"Who are you? Who is this cute little child? What's your name? Why are you sitting on me?"
Chu Fang said, "He's not even a year old, he can't talk."
Chu Fang thought his wife was a bit silly, actually trying to communicate with a baby.
"Don't I know that?" Zhong Tingyue glanced at him, then continued playing with the child, "How did this little kid grow up? He's so interesting."
Chu Fang curled his lip.
"What? You disagree?" Zhong Tingyue raised her neck. "He's a genuine little puppy, you're an old geezer."
Chu Fang said in a deep voice, "That's insulting!"
"Sorry, Mr. Chu, I just like telling the truth."
"Hmph!"
He snorted, too lazy to pay attention to this fickle wife, while Zhong Tingyue continued to tease the little boy, making Liu Zhe wave his little hands.
On the way back, they first went to a big brand store to buy a lot of baby supplies.
Although Liu Kai and his wife left some baby items, Zhong Tingyue wanted to buy even more for the child.
Back at the昙花(TanHua) residential complex, Zhong Tingyue carried Liu Zhe inside, while Chu Fang, carrying many goods, walked behind, muttering, "This kid is stealing my thunder."
All the way, Zhong Tingyue's attention was completely focused on the child, ignoring his existence.
"Who's that child?" The security guard's hat was askew, like a defeated army. "Your dad?"
"Your grandpa," Chu Fang said with disdain.
The security guard watched Chu Fang's back, touching his chin. "Who exactly is that child? I haven't seen Zhong having a big belly? Could it be... Chu had it?"
"Hmm... possible!"
Then the security guard stopped an old man. "Brother, let me tell you a secret, but you must never tell anyone."
"What? Chu had a baby?" The old man was extremely shocked. "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone."
Subsequently, stories about Chu Fang spread throughout the 昙花(TanHua) residential complex:
《Is Chu a Woman?》
《Ms. Chu Fang: That Night, Three Men Were on My Bed》
《Who Exactly is Chu Fang? Is He the Man We Know? Or a Woman? Is the Distortion of Humanity or the Loss of Morality Behind This?》
When Chu Fang returned home, he saw 99+ messages in the community property group, all about him.
[Lonely Single Player (Handsome Chu Fang): Can you guys stop making fun of me to my face?]
[I am a Security Guard (Security Guard): Oh, I forgot you were in this group.]
[I am a Security Guard (Security Guard): Let's chat in another group, or rather, you should change groups.]
Then Chu Fang was kicked out of the owners' group.
Chu Fang: @#￥%%
Is there no justice in this world?
His tall image was ruined.
He wanted to cry.
"Wah wah wah..."
But before he could cry, Liu Zhe started crying.
Chu Fang turned around and saw Liu Zhe crying loudly, his eyes full of tears.
"What's wrong with this kid?" Chu Fang asked.
"I don't know," Zhong Tingyue replied innocently while coaxing the child. "I was playing with him just fine, one second he was smiling, and the next he was crying."
Liu Zhe cried while fiddling with Zhong Tingyue's skirt, his head moving towards a familiar place.
Chu Fang understood.
This kid must be hungry.
Chu Fang pried open those small hands and seriously educated him, "This is mine, not yours."
Zhong Tingyue rolled her eyes at him.
Liu Zhe was not even a year old, how could he understand his words? He slapped Chu Fang in the face, and the latter glared at the former before going to make milk powder.
After a while, he came out with a milk bottle. Chu Fang first tested the temperature and took a sip. "Tsk, no taste, let me try again."
Regardless of Liu Zhe's wailing, he drank five or six sips. Finally, Zhong Tingyue snatched the milk bottle and fed it to Liu Zhe, which calmed the crying in the house.
"You have the nerve to snatch food from a child," Zhong Tingyue said, wiping the tears from Liu Zhe's face.
"I do!" Chu Fang straightened his back.
Zhong Tingyue: "..."
Why did she hear pride and boasting in that tone?
After drinking the milk powder, Liu Zhe fell into a drowsy sleep, and Zhong Tingyue carefully placed him in the crib.
"You said..."
Just as Chu Fang was about to speak, Zhong Tingyue put her index finger to her lips: "Shh, don't disturb the child."
Zhong Tingyue lay on the crib, staring at Liu Zhe, her eyes full of tenderness. "Little kids are really cute, will our children be just as cute?"
"Probably," Chu Fang said, sitting next to her.
The two sat on the sofa, looking at the sleeping child, chatting softly.
Time quickly passed into the late night.
"I, Hu HanSan, am back!" Zhong Rou's homecoming was still as loud as ever.
This loud noise woke Liu Zhe up. He seemed dazed because he had just woken up, but soon his lips twitched, and he started crying again.
Zhong Tingyue hurriedly coaxed the child, but it didn't work. She glared at her younger sister: "It's all your fault."
Zhong Rou shrugged and asked, "Brother-in-law, who is this kid?"
"An ancestor!" Chu Fang replied.
He stole his beloved woman, and he couldn't hit him, couldn't scold him, couldn't speak loudly. This was his living ancestor.
Zhong Tingyue tried all sorts of methods to coax him for a long time, but still couldn't stop Liu Zhe's crying. The tears were like water from the Milky Way, falling down.
Finally, Zhong Tingyue pointed the finger at her younger sister and scolded loudly, and the latter rolled up her sleeves: "Let me do it. I, Zhong Rou, have been wandering the world for decades, can't I handle a little kid? What a joke!"
Then Zhong Rou hugged Liu Zhe and started comforting him, but it still didn't work.
This kid didn't care who you were or what tricks you used, he only had one trick: 'crying', which made the whole family helpless, and the sound of crying echoed throughout the house.
In the end, Zhong Rou was capable. After doing a few somersaults, she immediately made Liu Zhe laugh, but this also brought a problem, which was that Liu Zhe would laugh when Zhong Rou did somersaults, and cry when she didn't.
The happier Liu Zhe laughed, the more tired Zhong Rou was, lying on the ground, panting. "I can't do it anymore, I'm dying."
"To think that a mere little kid could cause Zhong Rou to die here, the pugilistic world is indeed unfathomable, I was too careless and underestimated the people of the world."
"Hmm... no, he's not a kid, but an old monster who has cultivated martial arts to the pinnacle and returned to his youth, which is why he looks like a baby."
"You old monster, I will cultivate to the point of returning to my youth and fight you again."
After speaking, Zhong Rou quickly ran into her room and slammed the door shut.
Chu Fang: "..."
We're all acquaintances, what are you pretending for?
Late at night, Zhong Tingyue gently hummed a lullaby, and Liu Zhe fell asleep.
Chu Fang dimmed the lights in the bedroom and said softly, "Ms. Zhong, Liu Zhe is asleep, we should go to bed too."
Zhong Tingyue saw through his thoughts at a glance, but did not refuse.
The two went to bed, and Chu Fang smacked his head, remembering something. He quickly ran to the crib and pulled up the curtain.
"Mr. Chu, are you sick?"
"Little kids mature early."
