Chapter 266: Third World: Cat's Out Of The Bag

Feng Yu who had lived for more than forty years of age finally knew the meaning of a stitch in time saves nine. If only he had dealt with the problem from the beginning instead of sweeping it under the rug there would have been a more favourable outcome. One loose thread caused the carpet to unravel in an instant. How the man found himself in this situation all began with Nu Shen.

Earlier on when Nu Shen said she wanted to convince Feng Zi, this old fashioned man thought it meant cooking for him or something. That's how he got his beautiful wife. If it weren't for that, would a beautiful Pheonix get together with a meerkat? The chances of that happening would be next to zero. He didn't think she meant crawling into his bed and even attempting to mark him to disgust Qie Ranzhe which would ultimately lead them to break up.

He was astounded by the youngsters' courtship skills these days. So aggressive. Ten minutes later Feng Zi budged into his study room throwing a temper tantrum like a toddler. Even the kid next to him was standing there with a dumbfounded expression. It seemed he had never seen his dad that angry or didn't think Feng Zi could get angry.

Wen Qinxi was even angrier when he realised Feng Yu wasn't fazed at the thought of having his study destroyed. What he did notice though was that the man's line of sight kept falling in the direction of the bookshelf, constantly. A malicious grin crept up his face figuring there was something on the bookshelf that Feng Yu valued more than his study. He was indeed right, Feng Yu appeared nervous the closer he got.

"I just need you to tell me where the crystal is, everything else doesn't matter," said Wen Qinxi with his fingers slowly tracing the bookshelf touching things while observing Feng Yu's micro-expressions. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a grey box and the closer he got to it, the more nerve wrecked Feng Yu became. As soon as he grabbed hold of it intending to smash it to the ground, Feng Yu reached out and embraced his son whispering, "Don't break it,..... I will, I will tell you." This was his wife's ashes so how could he let his son destroy them.

Wen Qinxi could feel the man quivering while tightening his hug which was full of warmth and tenderness. Feng Yu almost broke into tears embracing this son that he let down. Wen Qinxi's heart softened and put down the box while patting the older man's back. There was no need for him to be this emotional but it seemed him being emotional was the only way he would spill his guts and lay all his cards on the table.

After letting go of Feng Zi he said, "Did he hurt you?" inspecting his family's cabbage carefully, "that brute burnt your beautiful lush feathers. You ass-....mm, mmm." The unrestraint Feng Yu was about to utter a curse word when Feng Zi decisively covered the man's mouth with his hand. Wen Qinxi was afraid Feng Xieling would run around cursing after this.

But Feng Xieling wasn't paying attention, his attention was on Feng Yu who seemed so familiar but he couldn't remember where they had met before.

Feng Yu understood and freed his lips before carrying on, "You defend him but he, he....vah, whatever." Still enrage, Feng Yu poured himself an entire glass of whiskey and took a few gulps before carrying on. "He not only burnt your feathers, shot you but he also got you..... pregnant or whatever its equivalent," said Feng Yu unable to hold back all those repressed feelings he was harbouring within.

Wen Qinxi almost laughed out loud thinking how absurd that was. Yes, in the second world he could fall pregnant. He was an omega after all. It was a mystery how Qie Ranzhe managed to bring over Feng Xieling to this world but the human anatomy in this world was set. How could Feng Zi have birthed a child? Ridiculous, that was the best word to describe it.

Seeing Feng Zi's disbelieving face, Qie Ranzhe had to say something. He had never shown Feng Zi the DNA test because Feng Zi had already accepted Feng Xieling as his son so he didn't see the need. "I don't know about getting you pregnant but he does have both our DNA," said Qie Ranzhe pointing at Feng Xieling who was squinting his eyes staring at Feng Yu.

Wen Qinxi raised a brow thinking, 'Uh, so it's that kind of situation? Did he.... fuck no!' That is to say, Wen Qinxi got extremely jealous assuming that Qie Ranzhe slept with Feng Zi before he took over this character. 'Such a slag man,' he thought glaring at Qie Ranzhe who felt a sudden chill spread all over his body. He couldn't figure what he said to anger his baobei. Qie Ranzhe was about to walk over and coax his lover when both their attention was drawn by Feng Xieling yelling, "Old Man Yu!"

'Shit!' thought Feng Yu rubbing his forehead with a pensive expression. Feng Xieling even walked over and stared at Feng Yu with his head tilted to the side like a curious puppy. This was Old Man Yu though he looked older back then, it was definitely him. "Devils spawn, what nonsense are you sprouting?" whispered Feng Yu trying to get rid of the kid but it sold him out.

Though he had just been insulted Feng Xieling felt a sense of familiarity. Old Man Yu used to come over to the orphanage and give them candy. What made him memorable was that he sneakily gave him twice the amount while calling him devil's spawn. But once he got adopted he never saw Old Man Yu ever again.

"It's you, Old Man Yu," said the excited Feng Xieling. He immediately stretched out his open palm gesturing to the man to give him something.
