To Marry You Chapter 29

"Little Huangzi" Dad's Distress

Huang Yu only manage to bring a few small dolls home, so his mood had dampened considerably. In the end, Huang Qishan had to take his child-hearted little son to a doll store so he could pick out a few to bring home. He had raised him for almost eighteen years, and yet he still needed sweet-talking.

"Dad, can we get a cat?" Huang Yu sat in the back seat of the car hugging his newly bought, extra large Ai Si Ke rabbit1This is a particular stuffed rabbit.

"We'll talk about it again when you've gotten rid of your rabbit." Huang Qishan looked at his son incessantly fiddling with the alien-like rabbit via the rearview mirror and felt his heart was furry2an expression meaning fear that something bad is going to happen or fear of a bad outcome.

"Never mind then. Hey, are we only having lunch on my birthday?"

"En, remember to come back. And remember, you're not allowed to bring anyone with you!" Huang Qishan emphasized this several times. If this brat dared to bring someone with him, just watch how he'll fix them up.

"I got it. Dad, I really don't know what your fussing about. Sooner or later, I'm going to bring someone home!" Huang Yu acted like a child throwing a tantrum. He then bent his legs and lay down on the seats while hugging his rabbit for a small rest.

This touched Huang Qishan's sore spot exactly. He just felt like the fruits of his thousand labors, ten thousand sufferings "little prince" was changing keepers. It was an indescribable loss. Before, when Lu Jiangyu wasn't with them, only Huang Yu had been with him. Although, this little brat never ran out of headaches to give him. When he was just born, this brat refused to drink even a mouthful of baby formula. Still, his hunger made him cry like his heart was tearing and lungs were cracking. Huang Qishan was both heart broken and exacerbated when he saw this. In the end, he had to use that doctor's number to get that person to solve it and find Huang Yu this brat a wet nurse!

When Lu Jiangyu heard Huang Yu say this, he interrupted Huang Qishan's aggrieved reminisces. He asked curiously, "Isn't there going to be a party?"

"Nope, Huang Yu doesn't want to deal with it."

"Is that okay?"

"Yeah, it's fine. We haven't even sent out the invitations yet. There was only talks with a few friends, so asking them to have a meal is enough," answered Huang Qishan. Actually, this was good. He couldn't wait to tell everyone of Lu Jiangyu's existence, but he was afraid his lover would get hurt.

What's more, Lu Jiangyu also did not particularly want to do it. He worried too much, had too many misgivings, to the point that he even would go so far as to neglect Huang Qishan's desires. Several days ago, Huang Qishan seemed a bit strange. When embracing, he could sense a fervor from Huang Qishan to knead him down to the bones. This went on for several days to the point he could not take it. Until now, he didn't hear the disappointment in his lover's voice.

When they first started seeing each other, Huang Qishan said he wanted to introduce him to everyone, but Lu Jiangyu was unwilling, he didn't want more people to know because he was afraid this quiet would be broken. He never imagined that once by Huang Qishan's side, the oppressive silence would be broken. Now that he could stand by this man, other things really didn't matter.

"Then bring me along with you," Lu Jiangyu said breezily.

Huang Qishan started and gave Lu Jiangyu a look. Lu Jiangyu smiled and said, "What is it? I'm not presentable?"

"How could that be?" Huang Qishan shook his head. Right now he felt like a student that finally graduated, like he could finally introduce his lover to his parents. You know, that kind of feeling!

"Just tell me when. I'm closing my eyes for a bit.”

“En, when we get home, I'll wake you.” HUang Qishan fiddled with the dash to turn up the air conditioning so that the father and son could rest more comfortably.

Outside the car window was a more crowded streets. Every sort of car dotted the landscape, but Huang Qishan at the moment didn't feel the irritation of waiting for cars in the past. Instead, he possessed the joy of finally being able to return home, the happiness of returning home with his lover and son.

When they got home, Lu Jiangyu woke up, but Huang Yu was still a sleep, so Huang Qishan could only carry him out. Speaking of which, it was strange that even though Huang Qishan was close to 190 cm and Lu Jiangyu was a full 182 cm, Huang Yu was just 178 cm. Even though it was only a couple of centimeters difference, Huang Qishan felt it was better for a man to be tall.

Ever since Huang Yu started not caring about growing taller, Huang Qishan forced Huang Yu to drink more milk and exercise. However, Huang Yu said this ached and that ached every time. He knew he was faking, but Huang Yu's miserable appearance still forced Huang Qishan to give up. Then all he could do was add more calcium! Stay in the sun, add supplements! After a while, Huang Yu was at a intake surplus and still he wasn't growing. So Huang Qishan gave up.

It was different from when he had held his son in his arms or carried him in his back when he was little, but Huang Qishan felt like he had returned to the past. Then, his son was still young, still had his baby fat, and holding him was very soft. But he was even happier now because his true love was walking alongside him.

However, erzi3son, if I haven't mentioned it yet's body weight was no good! Has he not been eating well? Looks like that brat can't cook! I'll give him a good talking to one day! Despite his dislike of Liu Shenghao, Dad Huang still cared a lot about things related to his son's happiness.

Lu Jiangyu went to shower first. He still had some work to do and a pile of drawings to work on. Huang Qishan placed his son on his bed and covered him with a blanket. He opened the air conditioning. He looked at Huang Yu, sleeping so soundly and smiled helplessly. He really did not know if this was bliss or just intoxication.

"Look at the stars~ Look how they shine for you…"

En! Very nice singing voice, thought Huang Qishan, but it sounds very familiar! Ah! This voice is that Liu brat's! Even singing songs for him! Huang Qishan dug around gently for Huang Yu's phone. En! So that person really is calling!

Pa.s.sword? None?! He swiped and pressed a b.u.t.ton and saw that. Person's. Sleeping! Face!!!!

Though Huang Qishan knew his son definitely was not honestly and peacefully sleeping in the guest room, he was directly looking at that face of the jerk who kidnapped his son! And he was sleeping! Huang Qishan exploded. It didn't matter whether that person agreed to let his son take the picture, or if Huang Yu secretly took it of his own volition. Huang Qishan answered the call, and his tone was not good. "h.e.l.lo?"

"Wow, it took so much time, tomorrow… bofu4uncle?" Good thing Liu Shenghao had quick reflects. Huang Yu never would have said "h.e.l.lo", he always greeted him with "Shengsheng"!

"What are you calling this late for? Huang Yu is asleep," questioned Huang Qishan.

"Uh…" Liu Shenghao checked his watch and saw that it was only eight o'clock. Huang Yu was sleeping this early? "Nothing, I just wanted to talk to him about plans for tomorrow. Is he sleeping early because he's not feeling well?"

"Nothing of the sort!" Your son is not feeling well! Although it was asking out of concern, Huang Qishan was extremely displeased at hearing this! He also forgot that later on Liu Shenghao's son would be his grandson… or his grandson?5 This first "grandson" means son of your son, the second means son of your daughter

"He's just too tired. He has to study, come home, and still wants to go to your place. He has too little time for himself." Liu Shenghao heard Huang Qishan's underlying meaning, but…

"Bofu, I just asked for two days leave. I was planning on bringing Huang Yu to soak in a hot spring and will be back just in time for his birthday. Huang Yu and I already talked about it. I called to ask if he wanted to fly or drive. What do you think?" Liu Shenghao did not directly say bye and hang up the phone. With yuefu6wife's father as his opponent, he must be resolute!

"Talk it out with Huang Yu."  With just this sentence, Huang Qishan would not disagree. If he were to stop them from going, the first to be finished was him! "But my son is still not eighteen years old. As a father, I'm not really comfortable with him going out. What's more, your parents also don't know about him. He is still young, and definitely will encounter all sorts of things and all sorts of opinions. He can change in an instant. If he is with you every day, I'm afraid it might bring you trouble."

Huang Qishan spoke as a father, so Liu Shenghao couldn't just blatantly refuse him and take Huang Yu on an excursion. But as for what he said about his parents… "I will tell my mother and father about Huang Yu and me, but not right now. I wanted to wait until Huang Yu was older and steadier and then talk about this problem with him." This was Liu Shenghao's sore spot. Huang Yu was not like him; he was fast approaching thirty and Huang Yu was still a few years away from twenty. He was scared that in the future Huang Yu would not want to be together anymore. Then what would he do? He did not want to wait, but he didn't want to pressure Huang Yu into making a decision too soon. Perhaps now he was only chasing after a new feeling. After some time, he may not be as interested, or they could…

At the end of the call, both of them hung up with similar headaches. Huang Qishan was worried about his son, worried whether or not that person could bring his son happiness. He knew that he had spoiled Huang Yu a little too much, but he did not regret it. Liu Shenghao was also worried about Huang Yu. He was worried that he would get hurt, or might impulsively make the wrong decision. He couldn't bear to let that pure, lovely boy get hurt.

Huang Qishan deleted the call log and went out. When he went to his room, Lu Jiangyu hadn't gone in yet. It looked like he was in the study. Huang Qishan resigned himself to brewing a cup of coffee for his lover and chat with him a bit. His son was already this big, he had to let go!

Huang Yu woke up at the middle of the night. He fumbled at the bed next to him and discovered that no one was there. He called out "Shengsheng" several times, but no one answered. Groggily, he opened his eyes and realized he was at home. The sleepless Huang Yu looked at his phone. Shengsheng didn't call? Never mind, he would send a text! He probably had his phone on silent, so it wouldn't bother him! Huang Yu put his feelings into words, "I miss you! You better work hard at missing me!" At the end, he added a small red heart!

Huang Yu tossed his phone to the side after sending the text, then took out his tablet and started playing games! Kill kill kill! Ha ha ha!

Liu Shenghao was not disturbed because he was not a sleep. He was still awake, sitting on his balcony drinking beer. Four or five empty bottles were littered next to him. Although it was on silent, the screen flashed brightly in the darkness of the balcony.

Liu Shenghao picked up the phone. It was Huang Yu's message: "I miss you! You better work hard at missing me!"

Was Huang Yu able to sense his avoidance? He finished swallowing his last mouthful of beer and stood up. Once was enough for that kind of thing. Why would he be afraid! The young would also grow up. Right now, all he could do was make it so he wouldn't want to leave him. Liu Shenghao went into the living room and called Huang Yu. "You're not sleeping yet?"

"Shengsheng, you're not sleeping too?" Huang Yu's tone was a bit surprised. He still had not tried the chatting past midnight into the morning!

"I just finished work."

"You need to rest more! And don't drink so much beer! Beer is still alcohol!" Huang Yu turned into "Mama Huang" and continued to chatter, "You're not allowed to not listen to me!"

"Okay, got it!" Huang Yu could hear the indulgence in his voice which made his heart go soft and sweet.

"Why are you calling at this time?" Huang Yu asked.

"Didn't you say I have to work hard at missing you?"

"En? En, what happened?"

"While thinking of you, I couldn't control myself. I can't go see you, so I can only call you," he said coquettishly. Liu Shenghao leaned back against the sofa. He squeezed the bolster Huang Yu bought two days ago against his chest.

Huang Yu did not react for almost half a day. Liu Shenghao called his name several times with no response, so he thought he fell asleep. He was about to hang up the phone when Huang Yu's voice came through again. "Actually you can see me…"

"What?" Liu Shenghao wasn't able to respond for a minute.

"I'm currently escaping. Come pick me up! I'm at the intersection waiting for you!" Huang Yu then hung up the phone.

Liu Shenghao looked at the disconnected call and shook his head helplessly. He resigned himself to go bring his wife home!
