After a month, fans were thrilled to see their beloved “Little Sweetie” online again.
As a result, An Wuyang’s Weibo became very lively, with many active fans and new ones constantly joining the ranks of Little Sweetie’s admirers.
“This photo of Little Sweetie and his husband is really sweet, so sweet, sob sob sob…”
With their faces so close together, one handsome and mature, the other youthful and spirited, and most importantly, their eyes warm and full of happiness, they looked incredibly blissful.
Seeing how happy the fans were to see photos of him and Dun Dun’s dad, An Wuyang thought, why not update more often in the future?
Making others happy with a simple gesture is undoubtedly a good thing.
“Yang Yang, when are you and Yun Chuan coming home?” It was rare for the weekend to arrive, and Old Master Huo had been waiting at home all day, but his son-in-law and precious great-grandson had not come to visit. So, he called An Wuyang directly.
“Sorry, Grandpa. This morning, Yun Chuan took me out,” An Wuyang quickly apologized and promised, “We’ll bring Dun Dun back in the evening. Please ask the kitchen to prepare dinner for us.”
“Okay, okay, haha…” Old Master Huo was as happy as a child and kept saying, “It’s good that you’re coming back. I’ll go tell the kitchen to make your favorite dishes.”
“Okay!” An Wuyang, who was very fond of his grandpa, chuckled and chatted a bit more before saying goodbye.
After putting down the phone, he sighed wistfully.
The man next to him, who had been paying close attention, frowned and asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”
An Wuyang shook his head, bringing his thoughts back to the present, and smiled, “It’s nothing. How about we visit my parents next weekend?”
So that’s what it was.
Huo Yunchuan, who had come to terms with the Little Angel’s family, nodded and agreed, “Okay.” In the past six months, the An family had been very low-key, rarely reaching out to the Huo family. This softened Huo Yunchuan’s protective nature towards his wife.
Their precious son, Dun Dun, was now over five months old.
The little toddler, with a chubby build, was strapped securely to An Wuyang’s chest using a sturdy baby carrier.
He was quite heavy, but as a father, An Wuyang enjoyed the weight, finding it not tiring at all but rather delightful.
Since he was holding the baby, he sat in the back seat with Aunt Zhang, who was constantly worried that Dun Dun might crush him.
Dun Dun was awake, and once in the car, his large round eyes darted around curiously: “Yah yah…” The unfamiliar environment seemed to intrigue him, making him wiggle energetically in An Wuyang’s arms.
An Wuyang was having a hard time managing. This little guy, with his five meals of milk and nutritious porridge, had grown strong and was quite energetic.
Seeing this, Aunt Zhang said, “Aren’t you feeling tired with your small arms and legs? Why don’t you let Auntie hold him?”
The stubborn young father turned away, afraid someone would take his baby from him: “It’s not heavy, I can hold him.”
However, the strain quickly showed on his face, as his arms were already sore from playing basketball.
Aunt Zhang looked concerned and said, “Oh dear, Mr. Huo, you need to do something.”
She was really worried about the boy.
“Yang Yang,” Huo Yunchuan called out, his voice carrying a faint warning.
Two minutes later, the young man in the back seat was still stubbornly holding the child, looking like he needed a firm hand. So, Huo Yunchuan pulled over to the side of the road, got out, and opened the back door.
The stern man said, “Give our son to Aunt Zhang and then get out of the car.”
The little angel pouted pitifully but obediently followed instructions.
Huo Yunchuan sighed softly, helping him into the front passenger seat and fastening his seatbelt. “Didn’t you get tired from playing basketball all morning?”
Dun Dun had been getting chubbier and heavier lately. Huo Yunchuan couldn’t understand why the little angel insisted on holding their son all the time.
“Okay, just drive,” An Wuyang said, hiding his reluctance.
“Don’t sulk,” Huo Yunchuan warned seriously, then leaned over to kiss the little one’s forehead, gently tugging at the small tuft of hair on his head. “We’ll get your hair cut tomorrow evening.”
An Wuyang said deliberately, “No, I want to grow it out and braid it.”
Aunt Zhang, holding the baby in the back seat, burst into laughter, holding her belly: “Oh my, Yang Yang wants to have braids?”
Her tone was clearly teasing!
Instantly, the boy, who had been spouting nonsense in a huff, blushed and pursed his lips without saying a word.
“Hmph.” Huo Yunchuan snorted softly, a smile in his eyes, as he closed the car door and returned to the driver’s seat.
When they arrived home, his mother came to the car to greet them, happily hugging her long-unseen grandson and showering him with kisses. “Dun Dun, you’re finally back. Grandma missed you so much. Did you miss Grandma?”
She doted on him, kissing him repeatedly.
“Yah yah…” Dun Dun cried out, waving his chubby little hands to push away Grandma’s well-maintained face.
“This child…” Mrs. Huo laughed. After kissing her precious grandson, she greeted her son-in-law with a smile: “Yang Yang, come on, let’s go inside quickly. It’s hot outside.”
She then turned and went inside with her beloved grandson. “Let’s go find Grandpa.”
The scene was so harmonious and warm.
An Wuyang was actually very happy, but he playfully grumbled, pinching Huo Yunchuan’s strong arm, “You see, now that Mom has Dun Dun, she doesn’t dote on me anymore.”
Sometimes Huo Yunchuan took things too literally. Hearing this, he thought the little angel was genuinely upset and immediately pulled him into his arms to comfort him, “I’ll talk to her about it.”
“!!” That wouldn’t do at all!
An Wuyang quickly clarified, “No, no, I’m just joking.”
After much explanation, he finally convinced Huo Yunchuan that he wasn’t feeling neglected at all.
Later, An Wuyang secretly decided not to joke like this with Dun Dun’s dad anymore since, after all, he was a serious-minded man born in the 80s.
In fact, An Wuyang’s parents-in-law were overjoyed whenever he came to stay for a night.
Previously, the large house had been bustling with people every day, filled with laughter and noise from their adorable, lively grandchild. Suddenly, when the family of three moved out, it left the three elderly people, whose combined age was nearly 200, feeling lonely and bored.
Simply put, as people grow older, they always hope to have their children and grandchildren around, enjoying the warmth of family.
Recalling the past, Mrs. Huo had once approached her son with a glimmer of hope and asked, “How about… leaving Dun Dun with us to take care of?”
Huo Yunchuan had immediately refused, “No, Yang Yang would miss the child.”
As a grandmother, Mrs. Huo fell silent. They had no right to take the child away from An Wuyang, even as grandparents.
Currently, Huo Yunchuan and An Wuyang would bring the child home for one or two nights every weekend, and the family was content with that.
The next evening, they returned to their small apartment.
Huo Yunchuan, trying to maintain his serious demeanor as an 80s-born father, played with the little tuft of hair on top of his child’s head and asked, “Are we going to get your hair cut?”
It was really awkward.
An Wuyang nodded, “Yes, we are.”
After all, it’s better for a boy’s hair to be neat and tidy.
“Okay.” Huo Yunchuan took the little one home for a short while and then went out with him to get a haircut. It wasn’t until late at night, after having a late-night snack, that they returned.
Poor Dun Dun had already fallen asleep like a little piggy when the two dads tiptoed back in.
After taking a shower, Huo Yunchuan came out to see the little angel standing in front of the mirror, admiring his newly cut hair, a clear look of vanity on his face.
“Handsome, right?” An Wuyang turned around and asked with a beaming smile.
His partner nodded, thinking to himself how incredibly cute and well-behaved he looked. Almost instantly, he was reminded of the first day they lived together, the fluffy feeling in his palm when he blow-dried the other’s hair…
“Come, let’s go to bed,” Huo Yunchuan called softly, his throat tight with the memory and warmth in his heart.
He then removed the towel from his waist, signaling to the little angel that this sleep would not be just about rest.
“…” An Wuyang’s face turned red, hesitating with his hands behind his back.
Huo Yunchuan called again patiently, “Baby.”
With his heart steeled, the little angel finally moved slowly into his embrace, clinging to his neck and nuzzling close, “…Dun Dun’s Daddy.”
The man, breathing heavily, leaned in and nibbled on his ear, “Try not adding Dun Dun’s name…”
The obedient little angel’s heart pounded, “Hmm, I don’t have the guts…”
“Haha…” Huo Yunchuan’s low laughter filled his ears, making them ticklish, his face especially hot, and his breathing difficult.
“If you keep this up… I’ll, I’ll get pregnant again…”
The man’s voice was so pleasant that even his laughter was unforgettable.
“There’s no rush,” Huo Yunchuan said gently, holding him close and showering him with kisses, as if he wanted to cherish him down to his very bones. “We’ll talk about it after you graduate from college.”
Since he wasn’t sure about the little angel’s level of determination regarding having another baby, Huo Yunchuan decided to placate him for now.
An Wuyang’s mind quickly became foggy, unable to think about anything: “Mm… uh…”
It was already autumn, yet Beijing’s weather remained hot. Every time they made love, Huo Yunchuan would sweat the most, and it would cover An Wuyang as well…
The next day, the young man, with a lazy look in his eyes, stood in front of the mirror, carefully checking his neck for any missed spots.
“Seriously, every time I tell him, he never listens!” he muttered, puffing out his cheeks in frustration, then pulled out a band-aid and covered the red mark.
“I’m heading out.” An Wuyang put on his hat, checked on his son, said goodbye to his partner at home, and then grabbed his backpack and tennis racket as he left.
Huo Yunchuan, sitting at the dining table drinking coffee, glanced at the boy who was dressed to attract attention today, his gaze darkening slightly. “Alright, come straight home after school. Don’t wander around, understand?”
An Wuyang rolled his eyes secretly and mimicked sarcastically in his mind, Don’t wander around, understand?
Out loud, he sweetly replied, “I know, Dad.”
The young man cheerfully went out, leaving the stern older man wiping the table and his shirt with a tissue…
Honestly, if things continued like this, he would eventually face a nutritional deficit.
