I’m Your Dad (2)

The people in the library seemed to have taken notice of Xi Chengyun, and were now secretly glancing at him. After receiving two cups of warm milk from the bodyguard, Xi Chengyun gracefully walked back upstairs.

【Shit! It’s true, Xi Chengyun is being a study companion!】

【Do we have any secretly taken pictures?】

【Forget about it. No one can get in. Your Xi-ge has employed bodyguards to guard all entrances. He has contributed a lot towards the revision of the finals of Jing University’s students. Smiles wryly.】

【Can’t we wait outside the library?】

This comment received a lot of likes. It seemed like there were people who wanted to go there and wait.

In the end...

【AHHH I’m speechless! What breed are the students of Jing University? Why don’t they need to leave the library? I’m going crazy】

【Haggard.jpg I don’t even have the patience to wait for Bai Qi and Xi Chengyun. May I ask how the students study for so long?】

【? Oh right, next time we should ask Bai Qi to teach us studying techniques】

【Shit, that makes sense】

【Xi Chengyun’s fans have picked up a ghost, oh no, I mean, a treasure. So cool, they have an almighty sister-in-law.】

Slowly, the discussion got a little off-topic. Everyone began discussing how bad they did in their finals, how difficult it was to study, and how Bai Qi was not even a human being.

When Bai Qi left the library, it was already 1 in the afternoon. His stomach was empty, but he had a smile on his face.

Bai Qi patted Xi Chengyun on his shoulder. “Mr. Xi, thank you for your great contribution towards my finals.”

Just then, a few Jing University students walked towards them. Bai Qi quickly changed from patting to hugging and stuck himself closely against Xi Chengyun.

It was snowing outside. Xi Chengyun’s grip on the umbrella tightened.

‘Huh?’

‘Is he hugging me to express his thanks?’’

Bai Qi slowly let go after the students walked away.

‘I’ll never pat Xi Chengyun’s on the back again.’

‘Sigh. If I pat him, I’ll look like a cadre going to the countryside to meet my comrade.’

Just then, Bai Qi’s phone rang.

He immediately picked it up. “Hello?’

“Where are you Qi Qi? Are you free? Lunch is on me,” Mu Dong said.

Bai Qi kicked the snow beside his feet, and the snow landed on the edge of Xi Chengyun’s trousers.

Oh gosh.

Bai Qi bent down to wipe it off for him.

Xi Chengyun reacted quickly, he immediately grabbed a hold of Bai Qi by his waist.

Bai Qi was startled.

“People are watching,” Xi Chengyun said.

Bai Qi turned his head and looked. There were people scattered in the distance, and true enough, they were looking at them.

He turned back and saw their reflection from the wall-length window. ‘Uh-huh… I would’ve looked kinda… weird if I squatted down in front of Xi Chengyun at this angle.’

It would’ve looked like they were engaging in some sort of weird campus ‘play’.

So, Bai Qi stopped moving and stayed still in Xi Chengyun’s arms.

Just then, Mu Dong started to shout. “Hello! Hello! Qi Qi, I’m talking to you! What happened to you? Did you fall into a lake?”

“Hold on, let me ask for permission,” Bai Qi said.

Xi Chengyun smiled softly because of one of the words he’d heard.

“Ohhh. So you’re ‘all that’ now that you’re married? And you have to ask for permission? Fine, go, go,” Mu Dong said in a jealous tone.

Bai Qi pointed at his phone. “I’m having lunch with them.”

The smile on Xi Chengyun’s face disappeared.

Bai Qi looked… like… he didn’t plan to bring him along.

Xi Chengyun’s eyelashes fluttered, his beautiful face looked calmly gentle. “Mn, with who?” he asked gently.

“My roommates,” Bai Qi said.

“I should meet your roommates too, right?” Xi Chengyun asked, leaving the decision up to Bai Qi.

“You... should meet them.” Just then, Bai Qi remembered something. “Oh, Mu Dong and the rest seem to like your movies.”

‘Mu… Dong.’

The smile on Xi Chengyun’s face widened. “Let’s go together then. Lunch is on me.”

Bai Qi nodded and they walked towards the garage side-by-side. They looked like a real couple. Bai Qi subtly shook his head.

“It’s pretty nice studying with you.”

Xi Chengyun’s hand, which was opening the car door, paused. “Oh? In what sense?”

“It was quiet enough,” Bai Qi said.

“...” Xi Chengyun thought, ‘This doesn’t sound like a compliment.’

“It wasn’t like that with Jiang Fangcheng…” Bai Qi stopped halfway through.

Bai Qi rubbed his eyebrows and felt like he’d studied too much today. Why did he think about Jiang Fangcheng?

It just so happened that Xi Chengyun also wanted to ask him about that person.

Xi Chengyun went on. “What happened when you were together with him?”

“He thought that my attention was on my books, and not on him.” Bai Qi opened the car door and went in confidently. “What did he expect me to look at in the library if not books?”

“...” Xi Chengyun said, “Why did you get into a relationship with him?”

“He pursued me,” Bai Qi said.

“...” Once again, that inexplicable sense of frustration befell on Xi Chengyun. Xi Chengyun quietly said, “Will you accept anyone who pursues you?”

“The thing is that his method of pursuit was a little special… Once, our department had a picnic at a location outside the 6th Ring Road*. I left my homework there and I was on the bus back to campus. So, he ended up chasing after the bus. His whole body was covered in sweat just to pass my homework back to me.”

*The 6th Ring Road is an expressway ring road in Beijing, China which runs around the city approximately 15–20 kilometers from the center of the city.

“...” Xi Chengyun knew very well about the tactics Jiang Fangcheng used to get what he wanted.

Xi Chengyun suddenly said, “Jiang Fangcheng’s engagement ceremony is happening next week. Would you like to attend the ceremony after your exams?”

Just then, Bai Qi’s phone rang again.

Mu Dong’s voice came from the other side of the phone. “Qi Qi, you said that you’re in the garage. Where are you? I’m here.”

Xi Chengyun turned on the headlights.

Bai Qi reached out from the car and waved his hand. “Do you see my arm?”

“I see it!” Mu Dong was excited and ran towards the car. “My baby Qi Qi, your dad is here.”

Xi Chengyun lowered the car window and came face-to-face with Mu Dong.

Mu Dong’s legs went weak. “F*ck! Xi-laoshi! Oh, I’m sorry. Bai Qi is my dad, as in like, I don’t mean it that way.”

His other roommates followed behind Mu Dong and started screaming in their hearts when they saw Xi Chengyun. ‘Oh my f*cking god, I’m seeing a mega-celebrity up close.’

They stammered as they tried to smooth things over. “Sorry about that, we’re used to calling each other ‘dad’. Today, it’s Bai Qi’s turn to be our dad, so Xi-laoshi is our….”

They were silent for a moment. “...Mom?”
