House Dad's Literary Life

Chapter 283

Chapter 283 – The Adored Father of Xixi

A new week has begun, and Xixi could see her little friends again. After saying goodbye to her father, she carried her small backpack and happily ran up the stairs, jumping and hopping along the way.

“Xixi, you’re here!” As soon as the little girl entered the classroom, she was surrounded by a group of children, not only Lan Xin and Yang Luoqi, but also other children from the class.

“Xin’er, Zhaoyu, Chen Shiyun, Qiqi… Hello, everyone!” The little girl thought they came to greet her. Being so popular, Xixi was so happy and quickly greeted them one by one, feeling overwhelmed.

“Xixi, your dad is so amazing!” Yang Luoqi held Xixi’s hand and said admiringly, “He tells you so many stories!”

“And he also wrote a book! My dad said Xixi’s dad will send us books!” Lan Xin shouted.

“Yes, yes, I want to read it!” Chen Shiyun said eagerly.

“You can’t understand it, my dad said he will have my mom read it to me!” Lan Xin straightened her chest and said proudly.

“Then, my dad will also have my mom read it to me!” Chen Shiyun retorted, unconvinced.

Regardless of the daily competition between these two little ones, the other children were also excitedly surrounding Xixi. Then, one of the children who had never been to Xixi’s house before asked curiously, “Xixi, what does your dad look like?”

Xixi was bombarded by her little friends’ chattering, feeling a bit dizzy. It took her a while to finally understand that they were praising her father!

The little girl’s heart was filled with pride, as if they were also praising herself, her face glowing1. Facing the question from that little friend, Xixi proudly said, “My Papa looks very handsome, super tall, and super cool!”

“Is he like a prince?” A little girl, holding her little hands, asked enviously.

“Yes, yes, 100 times more handsome than a prince!” The little girl nodded.

“My dad has also written books, but I think your dad is the best,” Nan Zhaoyu said enviously. “Your dad is much more interesting than mine. I don’t even want to go home when I’m playing with you and your dad, Xixi.”

It was unknown how Yang Yi would think if he knew that Nan Zhaoyu praised him so much…

Upon hearing this, Xixi was very happy, and she giggled and said, “Then, Zhaoyu, you can come to our house to play, and don’t have to go back!”

However, Nan Zhaoyu was worried and said, “No, if I don’t go home, my parents will worry about me.”

“Well then! We can’t let our Papa and Mama worry!” Xixi also nodded vigorously.

“I like going to Xixi’s house. Xixi’s house is much more fun than mine!” Lan Xin shouted, “Xixi, can I also come to your house and not go back?”

“But what if your Papa doesn’t agree?” Xixi asked worriedly.

Lan Xin thought for a moment and said confidently, “My dad will definitely agree. He likes it when I go to your house to play.”

“Hee hee, can we sleep together?” the little girl held hands with Lan Xin.

“I also want to go to Xixi’s house to play,” Yang Luoqi said, looking envious.

“I want to play with Xixi’s dad.” There were still a few who couldn’t forget.

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhaoyu kindly said, “My dad said that Xixi’s dad will soon come to tell us stories, just like when my dad came last time.”

“Really?” Nan Zhaoyu was immediately surrounded by several girls, who asked in a chorus.2

“Really, really!” He was a little flustered and nodded hurriedly. “People who lies are puppies.” 3

“That’s great! I like Xixi’s dad!”

“I like him too. Will he bring us something delicious?”

……

Since today’s work only involved shooting a music video, and Mo Fei had very few scenes, it ended early, allowing Mo Fei the rare opportunity to go home early.

Xixi was picked up by her father and when she saw her mother, she eagerly rushed towards her. Her little face was filled with excitement as she exclaimed, “Mama, Mama, do you know? I’m so happy today!”

“Really? Why are you so happy?” Mo Fei picked up the little girl and asked with a smile.

“Because everyone really likes me and Papa!” The little girl proudly said to her mother, “They all want my Papa.”

Yang Yi walked over, carrying Xixi’s backpack, and while taking out her lunchbox, he said with a smile, “I guess it’s because after the parent-teacher conference, their parents all told their children about the book I wrote for Xixi. Just now, when Xixi got out of school, a group of children lined up to greet me, which scared me.”

He spoke lightly of the matter, but Mo Fei had no idea how hot the scene was at the time. A group of little ones, their eyes shining, rushed towards him.

Each and every little one was like a star chaser. If they could say a few words to Yang Yi, their faces would bloom with joy, and if they could hold Yang Yi’s hand, both the little boys and girls would be overjoyed.

Yang Yi found it difficult to understand their excitement and had no idea how many good things his daughter had said about him in class. It was as if Xixi had established a “Worship Xixi’s Dad” cult, where “Xixi’s Dad” was praised as if there were no other father as good as him in the entire world.

“Look at you, secretly pleased. So many children greeted you, you must be very proud?” Mo Fei said somewhat sourly.

“Mama, Mama! And also! Papa is going to the kindergarten to tell us stories, just like Zhaoyu’s Papa. But everyone likes my Papa, not Zhaoyu’s Papa!” Xixi held her mother’s face as she wasn’t finished speaking.

“You shouldn’t say that. Nan Zhaoyu would be unhappy if he heard it,” Mo Fei educated. “Xixi, you shouldn’t say that others don’t like someone, okay?”

“But it wasn’t me who said it!” Xixi was a little confused.

“That’s not good either. What they did was also wrong. Our Xixi shouldn’t learn from them, right?” Mo Fei said softly.

“Okay!” The little girl nodded obediently.

……

At night, after Xixi fell asleep, Yang Yi gave Mo Fei a routine massage. But this time, he didn’t go all out. He only massaged her shoulders, waist, and calves to relieve muscle fatigue.

“I also want to go to Xixi’s kindergarten,” Mo Fei suddenly said, her voice a bit low.

“Hmm?” Yang Yi, who was massaging Mo Fei’s calves, didn’t understand and turned to look at her.

“I think if Teacher Mu and the others knew my identity, they would also invite me, right? I could teach the children to sing!” Mo Fei pouted.

“But you haven’t made your identity public yet!” Yang Yi smiled slightly and said, “Don’t think too much about it, and don’t blame yourself. I understand that you have your difficulties.”

“I’m also a bit worried that If it’s made public, Xixi will be harassed by those reporters.” Mo Fei sighed.

Yang Yi didn’t say anything, he just gently held Mo Fei’s hand that was placed to the side.

Mo Fei shifted her position and wrapped her arms around Yang Yi’s neck. She pouted slightly and muttered, “What should I do? I also want to be liked by so many of Xixi’s classmates like you, and I want to be someone Xixi is proud of. “

“Now Xixi is already proud of you too! She’s especially happy when she sees you on TV”. Yang Yi patted her back and said gently, “Don’t rush things. Follow your arrangement. If it’s really made public, it’s okay. With me here, no one can disturb our lives!”

“Mm…” Mo Fei leaned against Yang Yi’s shoulder, still feeling a bit worried.

“Think about it, one day in the future, when you make your identity public, Xixi will proudly says to her classmates, ‘Look, that’s my Mama. She’s a big star who sings a lot of beautiful songs!'” Yang Yi teased her. “By then, when you come home, you’ll see stacks of CDs, all requested by your little girl’s classmates for autographs.”

“No way! Children wouldn’t ask for autographs. You’re just making things up,” Mo Fei couldn’t help but laugh.
