It’s almost Lunar New Year, and Feng Yu returned to Bing City to be with his family. No matter how busy Feng Yu is, he will spend Lunar New Year with his family. Furthermore, other than some important decisions, he is not busy at all.
Feng Yu had always been the mysterious major shareholder behind the scenes of his companies. Many of the staff do not even know how Feng Yu looks like. Feng Yu also seldom gets involved with his companies’ operations, but all his staff has high respect for him. They heard that five-day workweek, public holidays off, welfare benefits, reimbursements, year-end bonuses, etc. are all implemented by Manager Feng. In terms of staff benefits, Feng Yu’s companies had always been the best in China!
No matter how glamorous Feng Yu is outside, everything changed when he returned home.
“Why are you sitting here and playing games again? Can’t you bring Zhixing out to play?” Feng Yu’s mother saw him playing Legend of Mir in front of his PC and got mad.
Of course, to Feng Yu’s mother, his son is the best in the world, and no one else can be compared to him. But Feng Yu had been away from home for so long, and he locked himself in his room to play games after he returns. Why can’t he do something else?!
Zhang Muhua is also mad with Feng Yu for supporting her future daughter-in-law, Li Na, to continue with her Doctorate. Even if you say, it is good for the family to have someone highly educated. Still, Zhang Muhua had found out that Universities do not restrict their postgraduate students from getting married!
Li Na’s studies and getting married have no conflicts. Even if she got pregnant, she can defer her studies and continue later.
Furthermore, Li Na doesn’t need to work. Feng Yu’s money is more than enough for his whole family and relatives to spend for a few lifetimes!
“Mum, I had only started playing. Let me play for an hour. I will bring Zhixing out later.”
Feng Yu enjoys playing Legend of Mir as it brings back lots of memories from his younger days in his previous life.
In Feng Yu’s previous life, he got to know Zhou Kexin in Legend of Mir, and they found out that they are working in the same city. After that, they met up and slowly got together.
Other than having no children, Feng Yu and Zhou Kexin did not have any regrets after they got together.
Feng Yu had played with his nephew a few times, and his fantasy of having children are gone. This Li Zhixing is a typical brat who only knows how to piss him off.
In front of Li Zhixing’s grandparents and parents, he pretended to be a good boy. But when he is alone with Feng Yu, he can make Feng Yu go crazy!
For example, Feng Yu had brought Li Zhixing out to build a snowman, and Li Zhixing demanded to build an upside-down snowman!
Li Zhixing also destroyed all the snowmen Feng Yu built by stomping all over them.
Another time, Feng Yu brought Li Zhixing out to catch fish during summer. The brat felt using the net is not fun and saw other people using an electrofisher backpack for fishing. He insisted Feng Yu to give him one, and Feng Yu had to get his engineers from Bing City Machinery Company to build one. But Li Zhixing only played with it twice and gave it away. That is an electrofisher backpack that was customized and cost Feng Yu more than 10,000 RMB.
Li Zhixing is not generous. He didn’t understand the value of money and was spoilt by his grandparents. Maybe it is also because of what Li Na always repeated Feng Yu’s words in front of Li Zhixing.
Li Na told Li Zhixing that “Other than money, your Uncle does not have anything else.” “Your Uncle said those who don’t know how to spend money will never make money…”
Maybe it was because of what Li Na said, Li Zhixing become very interested in Feng Yu. He sticks with Feng Yu whenever he comes back. Feng Yu is helpless against Li Zhixing as he cannot scold or hit him. Feng Yu’s mother will scold him if he gets angry with Li Zhixing.
“No! You are just playing games every day. Can you make money from playing games?!”
“Alright… alright… don’t pull the plug. I will shut down the PC now.” Feng Yu shouted. His character is still in the wilderness, and if his mother pulls the plug, all his equipment might be gone.
……
“Where do you want to go?” Feng Yu held Li Zhixing’s tiny hand and asked impatiently.
“What do you recommend?”
“I recommend you to stay at home and play by yourself.”
“Grandma!!!” Li Zhixing shouted.
“Huh? What is it?”
Feng Yu quickly interrupts Li Zhixing. “Nothing! Zhixing wants to say goodbye to you.”
Damn! This rascal is too cunning!
“The weather is good today. Do you want to go ice skating?”
“No. It’s painful when I fall.”
“How about making snowmen?”
“The snowmen you built are ugly!”
“Spinning ice tops?”
“That is for kids!”
Feng Yu: “……” You are a kid! Stop pretending to be an adult!
“Then what do you want to do?” Feng Yu asked.
“I don’t know, and that’s why I am asking you.” Li Zhixing replied.
Feng Yu had made a lot of suggestions, but Li Zhixing was not interested. When Feng Yu was at his age, these are all the things he played. Maybe the kids nowadays have too many things to play with and are not interested in all these activities.
“Have you been to an arcade center?” Feng Yu asked.
“Arcade center? Is it a place to play arcade games? Is it fun?”
“Yes… it’s fun. Let’s go. I will show you how an arcade center looks like.
When they reached the arcade center, Feng Yu realized it was filled with cigarette smoke. It’s winter, and the arcade center’s ventilation is poor. The stench of cigarette smoke almost made him vomit.
Li Zhixing refused to even go near the arcade center. How can such a dirty and disgusting place be fun? His Uncle must be lying to him again!
Li Zhixing stares at Feng Yu angrily. This place is not fun!
“See, I told you that there is nothing to play outside. Why don’t we go home or go to your father’s company to play? There are big trucks in your father’s company!” Feng Yu suggested.
“No. My father’s company is very busy, and the trucks are dangerous. You are an adult, how can you bring a child to such a dangerous place?” Li Zhixing scolded Feng Yu.
Damn! Do you still remember you are a child now? Don’t you know that children should listen to adults?!
Feng Yu decided to use the last resort. “Oh, how are your exam results? What position are you in your class?”
“I am first in my level. Grandma said I am much smarter than you when you are at my age.” Li Zhixing proudly replied.
Feng Yu felt like slapping himself. He remembered his results when he was young are not good. He only started studying seriously when he started middle school.
“What about your holiday homework?”
“I am doing my homework every day. I had finished my homework this morning.”
“Did your teacher ask you to write holiday diaries?” Most teachers will ask junior school students to write diaries during their term breaks. However, most of the kids’ diary entries are one or two sentences.
“Yes. That’s why I asked you to bring me out. But look at where you brought me to? How am I suppose to write this place into my diary? Sigh… Uncle… you are unreliable.” Li Zhixing shook his head and sighed.
Feng Yu: “……”
Am I belittled by this rascal?!
