The last chapter~
The second wedding anniversary.
In the middle of the night, 0046 promptly woke up Zong Yuan, “Zong Yuan, it’s time!”
Zong Yuan woke up, closed his eyes for a moment, and then opened them with full energy.
His arm was still cradled by Qi Zhuang like a precious treasure. Qi Zhuang was sleeping deeply, holding Zong Yuan’s arm. His face pressed against Zong Yuan’s chest, almost drooling.
Zong Yuan carefully extracted his arm, darkly opened the bedroom door and skillfully descended the stairs to the kitchen.
0046, alert to the surroundings, said, “Very good, Zong Yuan! No one in all four directions.”
Click, Zong Yuan turned on the kitchen light.
He rolled up his sleeves, revealing a sturdy forearm. “0046, keep an eye on Qi Zhuang.”
0046 nodded solemnly, “Got it.”
Zong Yuan had a crew cut, and every time he went out, Qi Zhuang wished he could dress him up like a big celebrity. He had quit smoking, drank only occasionally, and exercised daily. With hormones sometimes surging, Qi Zhuang could easily get weak in the legs.
In the middle of the night, Zong Yuan squatted on the floor, opened the innermost cabinet, and took out an egg.
The egg had a slightly translucent golden color, about the size of an adult man’s palm. The shell looked extremely fragile, but on touch, it turned out to be soft. The flowing egg yolk could be seen through the thin shell. In short, it looked exceptionally realistic.
Zong Yuan tossed it a few times casually, and the seemingly fragile egg turned out to be surprisingly robust.
Satisfied, Zong Yuan nodded, “Not bad.”
He hadn’t wasted a large sum of money.
Qi Zhuang was sleeping like a dead pig, so Zong Yuan confidently boiled a pot of hot water and placed the egg inside. The shop that customized this thing had told him that boiling it in hot water for five minutes would make the egg seem alive, with the effect lasting a day and a night.
Five minutes later, Zong Yuan lifted the egg out, let it cool for a while, and waited until the egg became warm before taking it upstairs.
Qi Zhuang was sleeping in a sprawled position, so Zong Yuan moved him back to his original position. Holding the egg in his right hand, he tucked it into Qi Zhuang’s bedding, placing it beside his legs.
The warmth of the egg caused Qi Zhuang to instinctively curl up, and then he casually spread his legs and clamped the egg between them, rubbing against it a few times. “Comfortable…”
Zong Yuan’s eyelids twitched—Qi Zhuang was being provocative.
Returning to bed, Zong Yuan lay down, and Qi Zhuang naturally snuggled up to him. Zong Yuan hugged him, drifting back into sleep.
In the morning, the two brothers from the Zong family lying in bed were awakened by a piercing scream.
“Ah ah ah ah ah—!!!”
It was Qi Zhuang’s scream.
Zong Yuan instantly sat up, watching Qi Zhuang, who was sitting at the foot of the bed with his back to him. He breathed a sigh of relief. “What’s wrong?”
Qi Zhuang turned his frightened face, lips trembling. “H-husband, in our world, men, men can’t give birth, right?”
Zong Yuan understood instantly. He solemnly replied, “The world is vast, and there are wonders everywhere. How do you know it’s impossible?”
Qi Zhuang became even more desperate. He blankly lifted the blanket and looked at the egg he had pulled out from under his buttocks, then looked at Zong Yuan. Tearfully, he uttered the last sentence through his teeth, “Husband, what should I do? It seems like I…” He struggled to say the embarrassing words, “It seems like I laid an egg…”
Zong Shen was the older brother, and it wasn’t appropriate to enter the room of his younger brother and sister-in-law. He waited at the dining table and saw Qi Zhuang cautiously descending the stairs, cradling a golden egg.
His appearance was as if he had carried an ancestor with great care.
Zong Shen couldn’t understand the development. “…Are we eating eggs this morning?”
Qi Zhuang looked up at Zong Shen in horror, quickly hiding behind Zong Yuan.
Zong Yuan’s expression was strange, and he stifled a laugh as he looked at the bewildered Zong Shen. “Bro, what do you think of this egg?”
Taking the egg from Qi Zhuang, Zong Yuan received a caution from Qi Zhuang, “Be careful, use both hands.”
Zong Yuan obediently extended both hands, cradling the egg to show it to Zong Shen. Zong Shen, feeling uncomfortable with their attitude, tentatively reached out, “Is it hot? Is it soft?!”
As if the egg knew someone was poking it, it suddenly jumped a bit.
The chair toppled, and Zong Shen retreated two meters, staring at Zong Yuan in a mess. “Where did you get this thing?!”
This thing?!
The soon-to-be father Qi Zhuang pouted and stuck his head out from behind Zong Yuan. He crisply said, “Big brother, this isn’t just some thing; this is your nephew!”
Zong Shen’s temple throbbed.
Zong Yuan said, “Come on, bro, hold your nephew.”
He pushed the egg onto Zong Shen’s face. Zong Shen hesitantly reached out and cradled the warm egg against his chest.
It jumped up and down with a soft shell. Zong Shen had never seen such an egg before.
Zong Yuan went to the dining table to eat, and Qi Zhuang, reluctant to part with the egg, glanced at it and sat beside Zong Yuan, sticking to him and serving him food.
“Husband, today is our wedding anniversary.”
Zong Yuan took a bite of the dumpling Qi Zhuang handed him. “I have only one request: I don’t want to watch our wedding video.”
On their wedding day, Zong Yuan hired a photography team, while Qi Zhuang and Zong Shen each hired their own. The three photography teams collaborated, competing against each other, holding cameras and capturing their journey. The post-production work was spectacular.
Qi Zhuang loved these three videos to death!
They had an agreement to take turns each year to lead the celebration of their wedding anniversary. Last year, it was Qi Zhuang’s turn… and it was simply unbearable.
Starting from midnight, these three videos played in a loop, in the house, in the car, in the restaurant, in the hotel… There was no escape.
For Zong Yuan, it was like a nightmare.
Qi Zhuang was eagerly anticipating the surprises his husband would bring on their anniversary. “Great~”
He leaned over to kiss Zong Yuan. “Oh, darling, you’ve got some stubble.”
Zong Yuan put down his chopsticks and let Qi Zhuang kiss him. “I’ll shave it off later.”
Qi Zhuang completely forgot about the egg he saw in the morning. He trailed after Zong Yuan like a little tail. After changing into a new outfit, he even coordinated a matching couple’s look for Zong Yuan.
Both in their twenties, they wore hats and sunglasses, looking incredibly handsome.
Today, they were flying to Country Y to watch a football match.
Zong Shen watched them leave with eager eyes, still holding the jumping egg. He couldn’t quite accept it, but seeing the looks on Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang’s faces, he didn’t want to lie either…
Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang waved goodbye to Zong Shen. Qi Zhuang finally remembered the egg he laid, “Big brother, take care of your nephew!”
They left in a carefree manner.
The imposing and domineering CEO, Zong Shen, dared not move, standing in place, afraid that a slight mishandling might harm his “nephew.”
Y Country is the birthplace of modern football, one of the five major leagues, with a fantastic football atmosphere. For them, football is a daily necessity, an indispensable seasoning in life.
What’s great is that many of Y Country’s clubs are world-famous powerhouses, and tickets for each match are often sold out quickly and resold at several times the original price.
Zong Yuan had two tickets in hand, with excellent seats in the front row. Not in the VIP section, as they preferred the excitement of watching matches from the regular spectator area.
Few men can resist the charm of football.
At least, Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang thought that watching a thrilling and exciting match on their anniversary was a perfect way to celebrate.
For Y Country, most Easterners are relatively short. Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang, side by side, found their seats. They wore big sunglasses, and from head to toe, they were dressed in branded clothes. Being tall, they inadvertently overshadowed the brand names, exuding an imposing presence.
The front-row audience had all taken their seats, watching the two Easterners leisurely find their places.
Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang took off their sunglasses. The stadium was a five-star venue, and no matter where you looked, it was a sea of people. The attendance rate was astonishingly high.
Here was the home fan zone for Team North 2. Qi Zhuang looked at the players coming out one by one, listening to the screams around him, and got excited too. “Darling, how about we come to watch a live match tomorrow!”
Zong Yuan pretended not to hear.
This guy was always like this, insisting on watching or eating the same thing all the time until he got tired of it. Then he would switch to the next thing.
Zong Yuan didn’t want to end up with a stomachache from watching too many matches later on.
The match had 45 minutes per half, and the first goal for the home team came in the 23rd minute. The fans in the North 2 zone stood up with a swoosh, and the screams and cheers were earth-shattering!
The forward who scored the goal celebrated by running across the field. The five-star stadium had two large screens, and the footage on the screens quickly shifted to the audience area. It surveyed the audience for a few seconds before zooming in and firmly capturing two individuals.
The two screens displayed the faces of two Easterners.
It was the “Kiss Cam”! And they were two handsome men!!!
Ahhhh!!!
Qi Zhuang, looking at the big screen, pulled Zong Yuan in confusion, “Darling.”
The camera knew how to pick faces, focusing on these two handsome men, not budging an inch.
The entire stadium of fans understood the message, and the screams reached new heights, “KISS! KISS! KISS!”
It seemed like a pink bubble had risen in the air, and countless female fans blushed as they watched the big screen.
Watching these two handsome men kiss on the big screen made everyone so excited!!!
They opened their phone cameras and aimed them at the big screen. Many people even posted on Facebook, excitedly sharing the unexpected turn of events in the stadium.
[Fu*k! Definitely a fujo country!!!]
[Ahhhh! Why am I not at the stadium!!! Both of those Eastern guys in the photo look handsome even to me!]
[Hahaha, fans in the stadium, how are you doing? I actually feel sorry for the forward who just scored! His high-quality goal got overshadowed by the handsome guys stealing the spotlight!]
[Don’t worry, fans upstairs, the forward himself seems pretty excited:)]
[…Still the same, fujo country!]
With so many people shouting “KISS!” with flushed faces and thick necks, Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang were not the type to feel embarrassed. Zong Yuan pinched Qi Zhuang’s chin, and Qi Zhuang closed his eyes.
Those watching the big screen couldn’t help but hold their breath.
Indeed, watching handsome guys with high facial aesthetics kiss was damn exhilarating!!!
Zong Yuan wrapped one arm around Qi Zhuang’s waist, the other hand pressed against the back of his head, and their lips met in a deep, passionate kiss.
Zong Yuan gently sucked on Qi Zhuang’s lips, oozing sensuality.
The audience gasped in unison.
People holding their phones couldn’t even stabilize their hands!
And you, the cameraman!
You literally shoved the camera in their faces!!!
Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang stopped at a kiss, and after a casual glance at each other, they continued watching the game as if nothing happened.
The referee blew the whistle, signaling the resumption of the match. The camera, unwilling to admit defeat, continued filming them for a while, only turning away reluctantly after confirming that they had no intention of kissing again.
Fujo country!!!
Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang, holding hands, sighed with relief during the halftime break.
If it wasn’t such a pity to leave halfway, they both wanted to leave!
People around them were sneakily taking pictures with their phones. Qi Zhuang wanted to talk to Zong Yuan, but as soon as he leaned toward his ear, the surrounding snap, crackle, and pop of camera clicks overwhelmed them.
Zong Yuan: “…”
Qi Zhuang: “…”
While taking pictures of them could be seen as admiring their looks and interaction, an unexpected event occurred at the beginning of the second half.
The same striker who scored the earlier goal seemed to have encountered an issue. This time, the ball flew completely off course, not just out of bounds but into the spectator area.
And it landed directly in Zong Yuan’s arms.
Zong Yuan, “…Damn.”
It seemed like this striker wanted to guarantee his appearance in the headlines.
Qi Zhuang put on his hat, lowered his head, and stayed silent in his seat.
Husband, you go alone; Zong Yuan, I’ll support you from behind.
The camera turned to capture the moment, and the burly striker with a dark complexion smiled, revealing a set of large white teeth, waving his hands to signal Zong Yuan to kick the ball back to him.
His laughter was hearty and sincere.
Zong Yuan gave a cold smile, stood up, juggled the ball, and, catching everyone off guard, executed a high kick, sending the ball soaring high into the air. With a powerful long-distance shot!
The live commentators reflexively started shouting, “The ball’s flying at an incredible speed! Very fast! It’s crossing the halfway line, getting closer, closer! The ball is heading straight for Sedge’s goal! Sedge is reacting! He’s in a serious stance, hands ready to make a save. Can he block this unexpected…”
“Goal!!!”
“This goal could definitely make it to the top 3 best goals of the week! Wait a minute! The referee is indicating that this goal doesn’t count?! Oh… oh oh, yes, it probably shouldn’t.”
“Wait, where are the camera crew?!”
The coaching staff of both teams stared intently. They hadn’t seen that young man on the European field before. What did this signify? This was a hidden gem!!!
Find him! Find him as quickly as possible! Get him before these old guys do!
Meanwhile, Zong Yuan and Qi Zhuang, who felt a bad vibe after that kick, were sneaking away.
“…Maybe we shouldn’t watch games live in the future.”
“But, husband,” Qi Zhuang started daydreaming, “your strengthened physique does seem suitable for playing soccer.”
Zong Yuan pretended to regret, “Can’t be a gay man if you play soccer, what should I do?”
!!!
Qi Zhuang changed the subject, “What’s the next plan, my husband?”
“Buy formula for our son.”
“…Is he really my…?”
“Could it be that I gave birth?”
“But when we left just now, you were laughing! You always laugh like that during your pranks!”
“…”
“Husband? Zong Yuan! You really—mm.”
“Don’t talk.”
Zong Yuan covered his mouth.
“That’s a gift for you…”
“The latest intimate item, no need to thank me.”
“…How do you use it?”
“I’ll tell you when we get back.”
Now, let’s go find a hotel.
