Impulsive as always, Huo Yunchuan, with his name shining brightly, quickly followed the fans and boldly left a comment that didn’t match his domineering CEO image at all.
While others added their ID numbers, birthdates, etc., he added his Alipay password!
People couldn’t believe it. The usually stern and cold man had such a playful side.
Just five minutes later, this comment, as expected, quickly got upvoted by enthusiastic fans to become a top comment.
Replies piled up into hundreds or thousands within moments.
“Hahahaha!!!”
“Devil!!!”
No existing language in the world seemed to have words that could accurately describe the fans’ feelings; only a screen full of exclamation marks could express their respect.
“Alipay password? My god, Old Huo, are you competing with Little Sweetheart to see who’s cuter?”
An Wuyang was still in his afternoon classes. Generally, he didn’t play with his phone during class, as he believed that even as an underachiever, his attitude should be proper.
Today, because of Huo Yunchuan’s speech at Shang University, the internet was abuzz, and he couldn’t help but be a little curious.
During a break, when the teacher wasn’t looking, An Wuyang quietly took out his phone to sneak a peek.
Thanks to netizens tagging him in the comment section, the underachiever boy saw Huo Yunchuan’s top comment and the unexpectedly crazy responses from fans below it.
“……” Being dissed by the whole internet felt really awful.
An Wuyang pursed his lips and stared at the top comment for a full three seconds before moving his fingers to type a reply stealthily.
HomeworkIsHard2000V replied to Huo YunchuanV: [Dog’s Gaze/] You said last year that you’d pass on your Alipay to me. Alright, I agree now.
The bystanders who saw this comment: “!!!” were utterly shocked.
“Damn! Little Sweetheart’s reply, hahaha rolling on the floor laughing——!”
“The legendary karma, Old Huo, watching you get your comeuppance is hilarious.” How should I put it, they seemed to see that since the old-fashioned Huo, started dating the ever-youthful Little Sweetheart, his whole demeanor had become younger!
“23333, the close couple turns against each other for money. Is this a moral downfall or a collapse of human nature?”
“There’s no turning against each other. This is clearly flirting, you know?”
“A pair of guys showing off their love crazily, but I really like it. I must be broken [manually saying goodbye/]”
A moment later, Mr. Huo replied.
But it wasn’t the love-showing reply that the netizens expected. Instead, it was a serious response in an old-fashioned tone: “Playing with your phone? If I’m not mistaken, you should be in class at this time.”
Onlookers: “Old Huo replied again!”
“Wow, Old Huo is really strict with Little Sweetheart, huh?”
He even knows when Little Sweetheart has class. Thinking about it carefully, it’s kind of terrifying.
“There’s no doubt that Huo is a devil. This level of omnipresence and attention gives people goosebumps, even in the lingering heat of autumn.”
“Come on, Little Sweetheart, muster up some courage and reply to your husband.”
“Haha, Little Sweetheart, don’t be scared, let’s continue playing with our phones!”
“Hey, he’s still a kid. Doesn’t this make you feel guilty? By the way, Little Sweetheart, want to play PUBG? Big sis is really good at it~”
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed, and the cute figure of Little Sweetheart seemed to have vanished from Weibo.
That wasn’t an illusion; it was true.
But it wasn’t because of guilt or fear. The reason was simple: An Wuyang had finished school.
The tennis club had their usual practice.
An Wuyang thought for a moment and realized that he might not be wise to show up on the court now, having potentially exposed his identity in front of the whole school.
In the tennis club’s internal WeChat group.
An Wuyang tagged the president, explained the reason for his absence, and sincerely apologized: “I’m sorry, President, it’s really inappropriate for me to be absent on the second day after joining the club.”
He wanted to say he would perform well in the future, but he didn’t because such verbal promises are actually useless.
President: It’s okay; you can come back in a few days…
Other members of the tennis club chimed in to watch: …
An Wuyang: That’s really appreciated [smile/]
In reality, though, he wore a sorrowful expression.
It feels like I won’t be able to go to school properly anymore, all because of that perverted big pig’s trotter, Dun Dun’s dad.
“I’m so angry…” But then again, when I think about it carefully, I still love him.
An Wuyang walked out of the teaching building, feeling lost. He swung the school bag on his shoulder and strode towards the school gate.
And then, he didn’t go to the tennis court for several days.
Speaking of which, giving a speech at university was indeed Huo Yunchuan’s spontaneous decision, perhaps driven by a bit of impulse.
But he didn’t regret it.
Until the university official account edited and posted the complete speech video online, sparking a passionate response from the public.
Because he was too outspoken!
‘Experts’ argued that as a public figure, Huo should not depict society as so cruel and harsh in front of the young students in their prime of youth.
As an elder, he should instill in the youth a positive, optimistic, and upbeat spirit.
Huo responded to the harsh criticism online seemingly by ignoring everyone.
The outraged ‘experts’ had no choice but to tag his father.
Former President Huo: “???”
In the evening, during the usual time for video calls with his mother-in-law to watch the child, An Wuyang adjusted his phone on the stand, aimed at chubby Dun Dun practicing flipping on the carpet.
“Aw…”
Halfway through the flip, Dun Dun pressed his chubby little hand under himself and couldn’t complete the flip, tearfully looking up to his dad for help.
An Wuyang adjusted the camera and waved to Dun Dun’s grandmother inside, greeting her, “Mom, good evening.”
Lady Huo was originally smiling, but the next moment, through the camera, she saw the chubby bundle behind An Wuyang struggling to flip over. She quickly said, “Yang Yang, take a look at Dun Dun.”
“Hmm?” The young man turned around, met his son’s helpless gaze, and chuckled softly, “Dun Dun.” Then he helped his son complete the flipping motion, saying, “There you go.”
Lady Huo looked at her lovely son-in-law and equally adorable grandson, sighing with contentment. Watching this father and son pair every night before bed always guaranteed her a good night’s sleep.
“Mom, Dun Dun is too clumsy, he still can’t manage to flip over,” An Wuyang remarked.
“It’s okay, dear. Mom thinks he’s just a bit chubby, so his movements are not very nimble…” Lady Huo said, choosing to overlook her grandson’s clumsy flipping skills.
“Alright.” An Wuyang poked at the chubby flesh on his son’s arm.
“And how have you been at school recently?” His mother-in-law asked gently and lovingly.
“Fine,” although he hadn’t attended tennis club training for several days.
An Wuyang couldn’t hide his concerns and chatted with his mother-in-law while watching the child, “Tomorrow is the weekend, and we want to take Dun Dun to visit his grandparents.”
“Of course, remember to bring gifts. Should I help you prepare them?” Lady Huo offered.
“No need, Mom, it’s okay,” An Wuyang waved off the offer.
The mother-in-law and son-in-law were chatting peacefully when suddenly, a tall figure entered the frame.
It was Huo Yunchuan. Seeing the little angel and his mother chatting via video, he greeted them, “Mom.”
“Ah,” Lady Huo looked mildly surprised at first, but quickly broke into a smile, visibly pleased.
“Yunchuan, lately many people online are saying you’re too dark in your thinking, not sunny and positive enough…”
Huo Yunchuan held his son close and calmly countered with a few questions, “Where am I not positive enough? Where am I not sunny?”
Lady Huo was caught off guard by this…
Indeed, compared to their son in the past, he had changed a lot now.
Regardless of what others might think, they had no reason to be dissatisfied.
After the elders satisfiedly ended the video call, Huo Yunchuan immediately set Dun Dun down and waved at the young man on the other side.
The young man who entered the scene, while feeling sorry for his son having a hypocritical father, happily sat on his son’s father’s lap—his exclusive seat.
“Dun Dun’s dad, can you be nicer to Dun Dun?” An Wuyang teased, rubbing his husband’s ears, completely unafraid of him getting annoyed.
The stern man glanced at his son and grunted softly, “I am good to him.”
An Wuyang thought about it; he was indeed good to their son, just not as good as he was to him.
The next morning was clear and sunny.
On the An family’s side, they received a call from their second son a couple of days ago, knowing they were coming to visit today.
It was the first time the couple formally hosted Huo Yunchuan, and they were somewhat nervous about their cold and aloof son-in-law.
Fortunately, their grandson Dun Dun was also there, acting as a link between them, so the atmosphere wasn’t too tense.
However, Mr. and Mrs. An felt… despite their second son having stayed at the Huo’s for over a year, it seemed he was becoming more reserved. Even when he drank water, their son-in-law insisted on tasting it first to check the temperature before giving it to him.
This seems a bit too indulgent, doesn’t it?
The entire An family wore rare and strange expressions: “…”
The young man, who was meticulously taken care of by Mr. Huo, finished his water and prepared to eat. “Mom, the dishes you made today are so abundant. We’re really fortunate.”
His eyes bright, he picked up his chopsticks and grabbed something he liked, but quickly hesitated and said awkwardly, “Can I start?”
Accustomed to being treated like an emperor at home, he surprisingly felt uncomfortable returning to his birth mother’s house!
“Go ahead.” Huo Yunchuan sat down beside An Wuyang.
Just as he rolled up his sleeves, ready to peel shrimp and crabs for the hungry little one who loved them, he heard his son ask for some vegetables to fill his stomach.
The natural parents sitting around looked helpless, and quickly said, “Go ahead, you don’t need to be so polite.” At the same time, they sighed inwardly. Their second son was different after not staying by their side.
Now even eating at home was so polite.
“This one’s good, have some.” An Wuyang picked up some food for his younger brother, his face filled with warmth. “You’ve been at school for a month now. How’s it going?”
“Thanks, bro.” An Wuji nodded. “It’s been good. How about you?”
“I’m doing fine too. The workload at our school isn’t heavy.” An Wuyang smiled, holding back a laugh as he focused on his food. For his brother, the heaviness of the workload was one of the crucial criteria for judging how well he was doing.
An Cheng and his wife listened to the brothers exchanging greetings, feeling warmth in their hearts.
