Peng Zhou watched Liu Yifeng's receding figure from the car and slapped his assistant. "Useless trash, Liu Yifeng definitely knew I was in the car and had him do that on purpose!"
The assistant felt wronged and indignant, truly finding it painful to work under such a boss.
Inside the villa.
"Tongtong, you wouldn't believe the look on Peng Zhou's face! Even though he was in the car, I've already imagined it. It must have been hilarious."
Lu Fei returned to the villa with Liu Yifeng, wanting to celebrate the good day with a drink. He'd also been very busy with company matters lately and hadn't eaten a proper meal.
Tongtong happily listened to Lu Fei share their joy. He was also happy because he could help them, and seeing his dad happy made him happy.
"That's great, Uncle Lu Fei! If the matter is resolved, we should celebrate. Dad, can Tongtong play with Uncle Lu Fei a bit longer today?"
At the dinner table, the little one, while eating his vegetables, quickly stated his condition to Liu Yifeng.
"Sure, as long as your Uncle Lu Fei is willing," Liu Yifeng said, giving Lu Fei a meaningful look. But Lu Fei ignored it.
The implication was clear: he wanted Lu Fei to find a way to leave and not give Tongtong this opportunity. But Lu Fei checked the time and felt there was still plenty of time.
"Of course, Uncle Lu Fei is absolutely willing to play with you." Lu Fei said what Liu Yifeng least wanted to hear. Liu Yifeng kicked Lu Fei under the table.
Tongtong, on the other hand, happily ate two bowls of rice. "Dad, Tongtong is full. I'm going upstairs now. Uncle Lu Fei, see you upstairs later."
Children love to play, and Lu Fei was good at entertaining them. So Tongtong was especially willing to discuss model toys with him.
Because of school, he couldn't go to Wu Haoyu's place every day and had to tinker with them at home. Now that Lu Fei was here, he finally had someone to play with.
"You knew what I meant, yet you agreed to his request." After Tongtong left, Liu Yifeng dared to reprimand Lu Fei. He felt he should go home and rest during this remaining time.
Lu Fei didn't seem to mind. "We got off work so early thanks to Tongtong. It's not a problem for me to play with him for a while. You, as a father, really don't know how to reward your child."
He complained to Liu Yifeng mercilessly. Even Liu Chunsheng nodded in agreement. "Exactly. The most important thing for a child is companionship. If you're always working, you'll only grow further apart from your child."
"Impossible. My son will only grow closer to me," Liu Yifeng retorted, directly refuting Liu Chunsheng's words. He was very clear about his position in his son's heart and was confident.
Liu Chunsheng didn't say anything but smiled and continued eating his meal. The food tasted exceptionally good today, perhaps because everyone was together, eating merrily, which made the food so delicious.
Two hours later, it was truly late. Liu Yifeng, who had been looking at documents downstairs, had indeed lost track of time. When he finally noticed the time again, it was already very late.
Anxiously, he went upstairs to call Lu Fei home. However, the two people upstairs were already asleep in bed. Seeing how soundly they were sleeping, Liu Yifeng didn't wake them.
Since Lu Fei had a girlfriend at home, he had to inform her. So Liu Yifeng used his phone to send a text message to Chen Xinyue.
Chen Xinyue was a little surprised when she saw the message. She wondered why Liu Yifeng would suddenly text her. But when she saw it was about her boyfriend, she felt relieved and replied with an "Okay." Their communication ended there.
The next day, the roosters crowed, and Da Bai and Da Hei gradually awoke from their sleep. Lu Fei, having slept well, felt very refreshed.
When he woke up, he saw Tongtong still sleeping beside him and realized he had stayed overnight at Liu Yifeng's place.
He looked at the time and slowly got up, afraid of waking the little "ancestor" beside him. But eventually, he did wake him up, or rather, his biological clock was just right for waking up.
"Uncle Lu Fei, did you sleep with me last night?" Tongtong rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at Lu Fei, who was about to get out of bed but paused mid-action.
Lu Fei heard Tongtong's voice and resumed his actions. "Yes, I had so much fun playing with Tongtong yesterday that I accidentally fell asleep."
Actually, he had fallen asleep first. He had intended to tell Tongtong a story and get him to sleep early so he could go home. But in the end, he ended up falling asleep himself.
"Oh, Tongtong remembers. Uncle Lu Fei was telling me a story, and then you fell asleep. Tongtong saw Uncle had fallen asleep, so he slowly fell asleep too."
Just as he finished speaking, Liu Yifeng opened the door and came in. Seeing that both children were awake, he felt relieved.
"So that's how it was. Uncle Lu Fei is really good at coaxing children," Liu Yifeng said, making Lu Fei blush and sheepishly scratch the back of his head.
Seeing Lu Fei's reaction, Liu Yifeng stopped teasing him. After all, he had coaxed his son all night.
"Don't worry, I sent a text to Chen Xinyue yesterday. She knows you're resting at our place. Go wash your face and brush your teeth. The towels and toiletries are in the bathroom."
Upon hearing Liu Yifeng's words, Lu Fei beat a hasty retreat, not wanting to stay in the awkward atmosphere any longer. However, thinking back, he had indeed slept very comfortably.
Watching him flee, Tongtong became very happy. Laughter filled the entire villa that morning.
"But these children's storybooks are really interesting. Listening to them makes one sleepy." Even at the company, Lu Fei was still pondering the children's storybooks.
Liu Yifeng punched him lightly. "Alright, stop thinking about it. I know it wasn't on purpose. You just happened to fall asleep while coaxing the child. I'll keep it a secret, okay?"
Hearing Liu Yifeng's words, Lu Fei knew it was intentional. He punched Liu Yifeng back. "You're the one who talks too much. I can't count on you to keep a secret. But I've already told my girlfriend, so don't try to use this as a joke during dinner anymore."
