In the Years When I Was a Father

Chapter 20: The Playboy Dad (End)

It’s still the same thread, but now there are thousands of comments. Amidst the arguments between fans, bystanders, and haters, a netizen quietly commented: “Did anyone else notice they share the same surname? Maybe they’re relatives…”

This comment was immediately shot down by haters: “Who knows if that’s even his real name? Maybe he just found himself a ‘sugar daddy!’”

However, fans seemed to be nudged in that direction and quickly began to entertain this possibility. Some, quick to act, followed the PR team’s lead, believing they had uncovered the truth.

34460L Feng Feng is my type: Haha, it’s me again! This time I’ve uncovered a huge secret, check out the pictures below [.jpg][.jpg]

Two images: one is a photo of Qi Sheng and Qi Wenfeng together, and the other is a screenshot of the report about Qi Wenyan succeeding the Qi family business.

As we all know, Qi Sheng, this notorious playboy, is the only son of the chairman of the Qi Group. A few months ago, Qi Group’s official website reported that Qi Wenyan, Qi Sheng’s son, was officially taking over the management of the group. Qi Wenyan! Qi Wenfeng! Doesn’t putting these two names together explain everything? Oh my God, turns out my idol is actually the wicked third-generation capitalist heir! Why do I feel so… happy about this!! (▽`)

Many netizens were moved by Feng Feng is my type’s analysis. If the two had no connection, one might hesitate to guess just based on the names. However, with the intimate photos of Qi Sheng and Qi Wenfeng from earlier, more people started to believe they were father and son.

Qi Sheng was also following the online discussions and saw that many people were asking for confirmation on his social media. After thinking it over, he decided to release a formal statement.

Qi Sheng: My son is too talented, and I can’t hide it anymore! [.jpg]

The accompanying image was another intimate photo of the two of them. This time, netizens applauded: “Ahh, who would have thought that the man with a stage presence of two meters tall, my Feng, could be so sweet in front of his dad!” No one dared question Qi Wenfeng’s identity anymore, and with Qi Sheng’s public acknowledgment, even people within the industry no longer dared to slander him. With the Qi family backing him up, despite being new to the industry, Qi Wenfeng was already someone people wouldn’t easily mess with.

In the following competitions, Qi Wenfeng first rearranged one of his own songs from six years ago, then rearranged and performed other songs. His arrangement and singing ability were enough to prove his musical talent and skills.

For the three months the show aired, Qi Wenfeng’s name became well-known, and his fanbase on social media grew rapidly. His influence and appeal often topped various charts.

Qi Wenfeng’s career had only just begun, and a bright future was ahead of him, waiting for him to shape it!

Ten years later, the elderly man, now in his 80s, was still in good spirits, sitting on the couch holding his little great-grandson, smiling happily.

The three brothers had all married later in life. Qi Wenyan was the first to marry, but that didn’t happen until he was 32 years old. The following year, Qi Wenyu also found a life partner. This year, Qi Wenfeng finally settled down. The news of this music king’s marriage was quickly splashed across the entertainment headlines.

After returning from his honeymoon, Qi Wenfeng picked up the pair of twins sitting on his dad’s lap, kissed them both, and held them close, unwilling to let go.

“Uncle, kiss kiss!” The little, fair and tender bundle coquettishly asked for a kiss, so cute that Qi Wenfeng nearly couldn’t control himself and wanted to hug her tightly and squeeze her.

He gave her a few sweet kisses, and both uncle and niece were happily surrounded by pink bubbles.

Just as Qi Wenyan, who had just returned from the company, looked at his precious daughter being so well-behaved in his younger brother’s arms, he felt a pang of jealousy. The little one was always so mischievous when she was with him, such a little face fanatic!

The most handsome Qi Wenfeng smugly looked at him, making Qi Wenyan’s hands itch again. This guy just always had a way of getting under his skin.

Qi Sheng ignored them and took the little grandson from the old man’s arms, causing the old man to give him a sharp look.

“Father, let’s go. It’s time to eat.”

The old man was helped up by Uncle Zhang. He looked around and said, “Wenyu still hasn’t come back?”

While playing with his little grandson, Qi Sheng, without raising his head, said, “He’s on his way, will be back soon. Let’s sit down and start eating; he’ll make it in time.”

After speaking, he kissed the little baby again. Watching the sweet, grape-like eyes of the little one staring at him, Qi Sheng felt like his heart was melting.

Now, at sixty years old, Qi Sheng had three grandchildren, and being surrounded by these little ones every day, it was hard not to feel happy.

It wasn’t long before Qi Wenyu and his wife arrived home. Changing into casual clothes, Qi Wenyu carefully cradled his son in his arms and kissed him. His once indifferent and stern expression became much softer due to the presence of his little one.

“Have you been a good boy today?” Qi Wenyu teased his son, who was just over a year old and couldn’t talk much yet, but when he saw familiar faces, he still sweetly called, “Papa~.”

The little one loved to smile, probably having inherited his mother’s personality. Whenever someone in the family kissed him, he would always return a sweet smile, making everyone in the Qi family adore him.

Qi Sheng really loved teasing his grandson. Despite the little one’s facial features resembling Qi Wenyu more, his cheerful personality was completely different from his eldest son’s, a stark contrast.

The Qi family had a lively reunion dinner. As Qi Sheng looked at his three sons, all successful in their careers and stable in their relationships, he couldn’t help but drink an extra glass of wine, which earned him a curious look from the little one.

Qi Sheng laughed: “Do you want to try a sip?”

“Grandpa~!” The soft, sweet voice made Qi Sheng unable to resist hugging him and giving him a kiss. The little one stared at the wine glass in confusion, not quite understanding, but then smiled sweetly again.

Now, Qi Sheng was truly the envy of everyone. In his younger years, he had relied on his father and lived a carefree and wild life. When he discovered that the child he had raised for eighteen years wasn’t his biological son, many secretly waited to see the Qi family’s downfall. But unfortunately for them, by the time the old man, Qi Sheng, was done with his messy life, he already had three exceptionally talented sons. What frustrated these people the most was that each of his sons was incredibly filial.

Those who had waited to see Qi Sheng’s misfortune were forced to continue flattering him with a smile, their mental state constantly teetering between breakdown and calm.

When Qi Sheng passed away, his grandchildren were all grown up. Looking at the group of sensible children, Qi Sheng finally closed his eyes in peace.

Back in the system space, a soft and cute voice from 277 echoed: “Congratulations, host, for successfully completing the main mission of ensuring Qi Wenyu has a complete and happy life. You’ve earned 10 points! Congratulations for triggering the hidden mission: ‘Qi Wenfeng’s Life.’ You’ve completed the hidden mission, earning 5 points!”

Qi Sheng hadn’t expected to trigger a hidden mission in the first world. After resting for a moment in the emotional purification chair, he cleared the emotional influences of the previous life, and seeing his points nearing 200, he smiled, “Let’s continue with the next one.”
