I’m back from my vacation! Thank you for waiting patiently~ I’ll update the next chapter tomorrow, on the usual schedule!
“You think well!” Yu Antong glared at Xing Lixuan, “One is enough to make me worry.”
–If he really was pregnant with twins, his stomach would probably be big enough to kill him1this is just Tongtong’s exaggeration!
This remark made Yu Antong feel uneasy, so he asked Xing Lixuan to call Director Kong after dinner to ask if there might be twins.
“I just said nonsense, you really took it to heart,” Xing Lixuan said, “When you had a B-ultrasound examination, it showed only one pregnancy sac. There must be only one baby.”
“Really?” Yu Antong didn’t look relieved, however. He continued, “What if it is too early at that time, and it is not found out? No, I have to go to review it again.”
Xing Lixuan regretted saying that sentence, which made Yu Antong anxious. “After the New Year celebration, I’ll take you for a checkup.”
The Xing family gathered in the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
“Dancing, dancing!” Little Judy couldn’t sit still when she saw the beaming and lively opening dance. She jumped up and twisted her little buttocks and danced excitedly, limbs swaying wildly, but she was happy nonetheless.
Mr. Xing was amused by his niece’s innocence and playfulness.
Mrs. Xing patted Mr. Xing on the shoulder and motioned him to look at Yu Antong and Xing Lixuan. She whispered, “Look how good these two children are now.”
Mr. Xing looked at the other side of the sofa. There, the young couple were squeezed together, bodies squished together as they were talking in their own world. He showed a gratified smile on his face, “At the beginning, we were not optimistic about this marriage. Thankfully they really built a good relationship together. Very good, very good.”
Mrs. Xing smiled as she shook her head. Her son, who usually had a cold demeanor and wasn’t close to many people actually met someone who willingly made him a wife slave. Even a hundred-tempered steel will turn soft under the right hands.
“Ha~” Yu Antong covered his legs with a small blanket, and yawned greatly while watching the boring song and dance program.
“Sleepy?” Xing Lixuan turned his head to look at him, “Go to bed. Our family doesn’t have the habit of watching the year changes. Don’t force yourself to wait until twelve o’clock.”
Yu Antong shook his head, raised his hand to wipe away the physiological tears secreted from the corners of his eyes due to sleepiness, and said, “Wait a minute, my idol’s turn hasn’t come out yet. I’ll go to sleep after watching his show.”
“Your… idol?” Xing Lixuan was puzzled, he couldn’t understand what his wife was saying.
Yu Antong replied, “He’s a celebrity, and I’m chasing him as his fan. For you, who doesn’t follow entertainment news, probably wouldn’t understand.”
Xing Lixuan: “…”
He and Yu Antong get along day and night. Why doesn’t he know when Yu Antong started chasing stars?
Xing Lixuan asked, “Which celebrity are you chasing?”
‘I want him to be blocked,’ were left unsaid.
Yu Antong flipped through the online Spring Festival Gala program list kept on his mobile phone, and checked the current program. “Gu Xingyan, the next show should be his turn.”
When mentioning idols, Yu Antong became interested and eloquently continued passionately, “Gu Xingyan, you should also know, is a very amazing actor. He already won all three of the big Best Actor awards. He’s the first-line male god in the entertainment industry…”
Yu Antong was also bored at home these days, so he decided to fill his schedule by marathoning good movies. After flipping through many movies, he unexpectedly unearthed a treasured male god.
Gu Xingyan’s latest work was a same-sex movie, which has attracted many CP fans, and Yu Antong has also experienced the joy of being a shipper.
At the beginning, he thought that shipping was just an immature fangirl’s behavior, but later, he found that it was very delicious!
Even just a small “stolen” glance, or an inconspicuous little detail found by the little detectives on Weibo could be counted as sugar2slang for a sweet moment for your ship, which makes you feel sweet. So, sugar it is.!
Yu Antong was very impressed, and he thought that CP fans could dig out every little detail with a microscope and imagine them into various stories in order to make their own food was also very interesting.
In short, during this period of time, he didn’t go out very much, and he couldn’t do happy things with Xing Lixuan as an adult. Chasing stars was his new source of happiness.
The music on the TV came to an end, and the host came to the stage and said, “The guest who will appear next – I have heard the cheers and shouts of many young friends before I even said his name. Next, I would like to invite Gu Xingyan to bring us the song, ‘The Special You’.”
Yu Antong immediately stopped talking and watched TV intently. “I won’t talk to you anymore, it’s my idol’s turn!”
Xing Lixuan also knows that Gu Xingyan was a very famous male celebrity. He used to like to watch his movies, but seeing his wife staring at other men intently, made him want to block the actor.
After a while, Xing Lixuan said with a blank expression, “It’s over, you can go to bed.”
“Yeah,” Yu Antong nodded, stood up and told his sister, “Don’t stay too long, go to sleep soon.”
Yu Annan replied, “I’m not sleepy yet, I’ll go to bed later.”
Yu Antong followed Xing Lixuan upstairs. He held his phone in his hand and didn’t even look at which way he’s going, “Gu Xingyan’s handsome smile is zoomed-in this close? God, I can watch it a hundred times over and over again! Grr, why is it so short?”
While the smile airtime was too short, but his fans haven’t cut it into video and made a slow-motion gif for Yu Antong to conveniently rewatch. It made him dissatisfied.
Xing Lixuan confiscated his mobile phone with a straight face, “Hurry up and take a bath.”
Yu Antong, who was used to taking a bath slowly, took a bath very quickly this time. He immediately got into bed with his mobile phone when he got out of the bathroom.
Opening Weibo, a big fan has already uploaded a screenshot of Gu Xingyan’s video.
‘Tut tut! This waist, this hand!’ Yu Antong was addicted to chasing stars and couldn’t extricate herself.
[Gege, take me away!!]
[My boyfriend sings so well, I don’t care if it’s a love song not for me!]
[Sister, wake up, why are you sleeping so early for Chinese New Year! Hurry up and buy Yan-ge’s perfume he endorsed!]
Yu Antong flipped through the comments, and suddenly remembered that he had prepared New Year gifts for everyone else, but he forgot Xing Lixuan’s.
This is not allowed!
Yu Antong clicked on the link of the perfume endorsed by Gu Xingyan. After reading it for a long time, he felt dissatisfied. He still preferred the smell of Xing Lixuan’s body now. He was using a cold rosin perfume, so he didn’t want a change.
Fortunately, Gu Xingyan has other big-name endorsements. Yu Antong chose a long fleece coat that fits Xing Lixuan’s temperament very well. It could be worn for this season, so it was very practical.
Yu Antong was ready to place an order, but the payment failed.
The balance in this card was insufficient, and he had to fill in the card number to transfer money from other cards. How could Yu Antong remember this? Now he needed to go out from this comfy bed and search for his other card. It’s too troublesome.
At the same moment, Xing Lixuan came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Seeing this, Yu Antong said, “Husband, I have no money in my card. Use your mobile phone to buy me this.
Getting the phone, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Yu Antong’s phone interface.
It was a model photo of Gu Xingyan wearing a long coat.
The mobile phone that Xing Lixuan got was suddenly returned.
Yu Antong’s outstretched hand froze in mid-air, “Honey, what are you doing?”
Xing Lixuan huffed in ire. “Take my money and spend it on other men?”
“What?” A second of happiness came to his mind, and when he realized it, he laughed, “Hey, you shouldn’t be jealous.”
Xing Lixuan went to bed, still brewing in a vat of vinegar. “You chase other men with my money. I’m not doing that with your money.”
Yu Antong scuttled over, trying to burrow himself inside Xing Lixuan’s arm. “Hey, I don’t spend money on other men, I’m buying you a New Year’s gift, okay?”
Xing Lixuan’s face paled, and he said, “I don’t want what he endorses.”
Yu Antong’s brain immediately made up a reason. “I bought this coat for you because I thought it was suitable for you. I struggled to choose it for a long time, but I found the perfect one eventually. It just happened to be Gu Xingyan’s endorsement. Hmph, you don’t appreciate my goodwill.”
Xing Lixuan snorted, smelling that bullshit from a mile away. “Is it a purely coincidence that it was endorsed by him, or you search for something that he endorsed that just so happens to fit me?”
Yu Antong felt guilty for a second, and then became confident again.
Although the latter was more true, it really was fit for Xing Lixuan. He decisively passed Gu Xingyan’s other endorsement, such as perfume, because he knew it wouldn’t suit his husband.
If the products that Gu Xingyan endorsed were not good, he would never buy it no matter how much he liked the actor.
Yu Antong said, “I know you think I’m just a brainless fan now. I’m bored at home and can’t do anything. Why am I bored? It’s because I’m pregnant with your son. I’ve been a man since birth, and I finally overcame my psychological barriers to give birth for your family’s sake. You won’t let me chase stars, why are you so narrow-minded?”
Yu Antong became more and more enthusiastic, “I chase stars just like playing games. I treat them like fictional people. I just like the mask they show for the audience, and it’s not real love. Why are you jealous? “
Xing Lixuan was cornered by Yu Antong, and he opened his mouth to defend himself, but had no idea how. “I…”
“Why are you so picky about which New Year’s gift I’m choosing for you! What about you, you didn’t even prepare a New Year’s gift for me,” Yu Antong said in an exaggerated pout, “You said you wanted to chase me, but I think you didn’t really take me to heart.”
“No, it’s not like that,” Xing Lixuan tried to reassure Yu Antong as soon as he saw that Yu Antong’s grievances started to become genuine. Xing Lixuan put everything he wanted to say behind him, and quickly reflected on himself, “You know I’m not a person who pays attention to holiday celebrations like this…”
Yu Antong said, “Then for Valentine’s Day, or our wedding anniversary, will you also not celebrate it?”
Yu Antong was just pretending to mess around at first, but later he became more and more aggrieved for real.
It might be caused by his whack hormones, but he was feeling extra sentimental. As he talked, he imagined that Xing Lixuan’s feelings for him might gradually fade with time in the future. He would forget their important milestones, and he would not care about him at all. He would let him rot alone; no nick-names, no kisses, just a husk of a previously loving marriage…
Yu Antong was tortured by his own imagination, and tears began to gradually form on his eyes. His nose started to feel stuffy, making his voice sound nasally. “If this is the case, why are we still married? It’s better to get a divorce now, so you don’t have to worry about it. “
Poor Mr. Xing, who only said one sentence, while Yu Antong made up a whole novel out of it.
“What nonsense are you talking about? How could I forget… wait, are you… crying…?” Xing Lixuan knew that it was getting real when Yu Antong started to cry. He didn’t even care about the whole spiel about divorce, he could only help Yu Antong feel emotionally safe and loved. He wiped away the tears gently while saying, “Baby, I was wrong. It’s all my fault. I will definitely change it in the future. I will buy New Year’s gifts and Christmas gifts. I will remember my Baby no matter what day it is.”
It took quite a while until Yu Antong felt better, and at that point, he knew it was his own fault. So he kissed Xing Lixuan and apologized to him. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to quarrel with you. I don’t know what’s going on, but my emotions just… blew up.”
Xing Lixuan kissed the teardrops from the corners of his eyes. “No, Baby is right. It’s my fault that I didn’t take your feelings into account.”
‘All mistakes could only be mine,’ Xing Lixuan sighed in his heart. It was also true that he forgot to take care of Yu Antong’s psychological health. So far, he only hyper-focused on his physical health, and now this was a slap back to reality.
Yu Antong might looked overdramatic or even manipulative, but as a cis man who somehow got pregnant, how could it be so easy for him to accept the reality that he was pregnant? He saw that Yu Antong accepted it so easily when he knew that he had a child, so he thought that Yu Antong was just being resilient as always.
Now it seems that he was negligent in this aspect.
Coupled with the cold weather these days, he was afraid that Yu Antong would catch a cold, so he never let him go out. He had nothing to do at home all day, so he was prone to wild thoughts and depressed mood.
Yu Antong didn’t think about it that deeply. He didn’t even know about the insecurities gradually building up inside his subconscious. So he felt that it was embarrassing for him to be unable to control his emotions and cry for some petty things.
He pushed Xing Lixuan to change the subject and said, “Whether I can buy the clothes or not, I bought them for you anyway, since you don’t like it, then forget it.”
“Buy it, just buy it,” Xing Lixuan paid decisively
Seeing this, Yu Antong suggested, “I like it also, so I’ll buy two. You can wear them interchangeably or something.”
Xing Lixuan laughed at himself. In order to coax his wife, he had to give money to his “rival”.
Yu Antong was satisfied. He could spend money for his idol and buy clothes for his husband. It’s the best of both worlds.
