Ever since 18-year-old Qi Weichen and Chu Qing traveled back in time, every time the fat treacherous minister and others asked Qi Muyang, Qi Muyang would find an excuse to fool them. It was not until Yueyang’s 100-day banquet that they saw the couple in their 40s, and something in their hearts began to shake.
"Should... not be the case." The treacherous minister hesitated.
Chen Xiu nodded repeatedly: "I don't think so. They are illegitimate children, so it's possible that they look like my parents."
"The name, looks and personality are the same, so they should be more than just alike, right?" the little fat man said speechlessly.
Time will change a person's appearance and temperament to some extent, so they didn't think about it at first, but they knew each other too well and even some of each other's little movements and habits. Seeing the current Qi Weichen and Chu Qing, it was hard for them not to be suspicious.
Gu Quan glanced at the three of them, and after a moment of silence, he said calmly, "If you want to know, why not just get them drunk?"
“… How dare you get your elders drunk?” The treacherous minister didn’t believe it.
Gu Quan looked at him with pity: "What's wrong with your brain? I meant to get Qi Muyang drunk."
Everyone suddenly realized and immediately took wine to find Qi Muyang. However, they really overestimated someone's alcohol tolerance. After just a few glasses, Qi Muyang lost consciousness and could not speak. How could he be tortured and forced to confess? Everyone had to give up temporarily.
But giving up was only temporary. The next day they asked Qi Muyang out. This time they controlled the amount of alcohol they drank and made him drunk to the point where he was just drunk but not passed out.
"Boss, what's this?" The treacherous minister raised a finger.
Qi Muyang looked at him blankly, and after a moment he slowly said, "One."
"It's okay. Under normal circumstances he would definitely break my fingers, but now he answered obediently." The treacherous minister breathed a sigh of relief, and the remaining three cronies immediately came over.
Chen Xiu was a little nervous: "Boss, are the Qi Weichen and Chu Qing now the 18-year-old Qi Weichen and Chu Qing?"
"Huh?" Qi Muyang was obviously still a little wary. Hearing this, he looked at them in confusion, as if he was curious about how they knew it.
Gu Quan immediately stepped forward: "Really?"
Qi Muyang didn't say anything.
The little fat man thought about it and changed the way of asking: "Why did Chu Qing and Qi Muyang suddenly become older?"
"I haven't gotten older." Qi Muyang finally answered.
Seeing that he had answered, the little fat boy quickly went a step further: "But I think my life in high school is different. Is it because of some medicine?"
"I didn't take any medicine." Qi Muyang answered again.
"How many brothers and sisters do you have and what are their names?" The little fat boy became worried.
Qi Muyang looked at him blankly for a moment: "One, Yueyang."
Others: “…” The answer seemed to come out just like that.
Several people used various methods to interrogate him, and combined with the fact that they had felt something was wrong a long time ago, they soon found out the truth.
"No wonder the boss asked me to help with the paternity test at that time. It turned out to be because of this matter." The little fat man was shocked.
Chen Xiu rubbed his face and said, "No wonder the boss called Qi Shen dad when he was drunk. It turns out he is really his dad."
"... My focus is different from yours. I feel sorry for the eldest brother. He actually sat at the same table with his parents for a whole year. No wonder he studied so hard in the end." The treacherous minister said dryly.
After he said this, the other people couldn't help but sympathize with him.
Qi Muyang didn't sober up until the next morning. When he thought of what happened yesterday, his face suddenly turned ugly. He called several people home and tortured them before threatening them not to tell anyone.
"Boss, you're really overthinking it. How can we possibly tell others? And even if we do, no one will believe us." The little fat man looked helpless.
Qi Muyang sneered: "You even got me drunk and asked me questions, what else are you afraid of?"
Everyone knew they were in the wrong, so they tried to please him and it took a long time for him to calm down a little. When they were chatting, Qi Weichen and Chu Qing came back with Yueyang, and they met face to face.
"Uncle... Uncle and aunt?" The fat boy laughed dryly, and the others were also a little embarrassed.
Chu Qing and Qi Weichen looked at each other and said with some amusement: "If it's really awkward, just call me the same as before."
"No, I call you mom and dad, how can they just call you by your names?" Qi Muyang protested immediately.
Chu Qing glanced at him: "Master Chu and Qi Shen are also names?"
Qi Muyang thought about it carefully and it didn't seem like it, so he agreed with a grunt.
Seeing that everyone was still a little awkward in front of them, Chu Qing invited them to stay for lunch. Qi Weichen cooked for them himself, and he chatted with them. Several people were in their early twenties, and they were a bit outgoing. Chu Qing was young in mentality, and with the experience of getting along with them, they quickly became familiar with each other.
However, this familiarity disappeared instantly after Qi Weichen came out of the kitchen. There was no way. Qi Shen, who originally had a strong aura, had become more gentle after years of baptism, but his aura had only increased, making it impossible for people to treat him as a friend.
Chu Qing noticed their reservedness and silently took out a wine glass: "You are all in college now, so it should be okay to drink a little, right?"
"No problem." The little fat man responded quickly.
Chu Qing smiled, distributed cups to them, and left one in front of Qi Weichen. Qi Weichen paused and looked at her calmly.
Chu Qing smiled and said, "Yueyang has fallen asleep. Have a drink. It's okay."
Ten minutes later, Qi Weichen and his son once again performed the drama of loving father and filial son. The little fat boy sighed with emotion: "I thought that the KTV scene after graduating from high school was the last time I would see them perform in my life. I didn't expect to see it again less than two years later."
"Looking at it this way, Qi Shen is still the same Qi Shen. He hasn't changed at all." Gu Quan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The others couldn't help laughing too. The gap disappeared inadvertently.
After this little episode of getting to know each other as friends, life returned to normal and soon it was time for Qi Muyang to graduate.
After four years of wandering in other places, Xiaopangzi and others realized that City A was still the best, so they came back hand in hand to build their hometown. Gu Quan joined his family's company as soon as he graduated, and arranged a financial job for Chen Xiu. Xiaopangzi also started doing business as he wished, and the treacherous minister played for another year after graduation, and finally opened a restaurant with Xiaopangzi.
The careers of several people are gradually getting on track, but Qi Muyang is not doing his job properly. He keeps clamoring to be a game anchor. He has been unemployed for two years after graduation, and Yueyang is already four years old at this time.
"It's not a good idea for Mu Yang to stay at home all day. Why don't we ask the laboratory and arrange a job for him?" Chu Qing asked with a frown.
Qi Weichen glanced at her and said, "Isn't he a live streamer now?"
"... You know his gaming skills, he probably said that just to avoid work. I understand he wants freedom, but he can't be too free, right? We can support him now, but what if we're not around anymore?" Chu Qing sighed.
"Now that you are gone, I will support your brother." Little Yueyang said immediately.
Qi Weichen's eyes flashed with a smile, and he picked up the little girl who looked like a replica of Chu Qing: "Then you should make more money, your brother is a big eater."
"I will raise him to be plump and white." Yue Yang said seriously. Although he had a chubby face, he spoke very seriously, which made people laugh.
Chu Qing couldn't help laughing and gave her a reproachful look: "I haven't made her fat in all these years, are you sure you can do it?"
“As long as you feed him more high-calorie food and give him less exercise, he will get fat.” The four-year-old child spoke advanced vocabulary word by word.
Qi Weichen put her down: "Then you can start now and go give your brother an ice cream."
Yueyang immediately ran to the refrigerator with her short legs, stood on tiptoe to get an ice cream, and ran to Qi Muyang's room.
Chu Qing and Qi Weichen watched her enter the house with smiles in their eyes, and then went to the kitchen together to cook for the brother and sister.
As soon as Yue Yang ran into the house, Qi Muyang noticed her, waved at her with a smile, and picked her up after she came over.
“Brother, aren’t you playing games?” Yueyang sat on his lap and swung his chubby feet.
Qi Muyang glanced at the screen. The little man on it had turned gray. He coughed and took off his headphones: "I'm dead."
"Are you still so bad at playing games?" Yue Yang asked seriously.
Qi Muyang didn't feel embarrassed to be told this by a four-year-old kid, and said with a shameless face: "In fact, I have improved a lot. Don't you see that everyone is praising me?"
His headphones were not turned off, and what he said was heard by the people inside, who immediately laughed at him. Yue Yang couldn't hear the sound in his headphones, but he could see the words on the screen, and he immediately became unhappy: "Brother, they scolded you."
"… These are all interactions between friends." Qi Muyang forgot that this little girl started to recognize words at the age of two, and hurriedly turned off the screen.
Yueyang looked at him sullenly, jumped off his lap, and ran away from the room. Qi Muyang then picked up his headphones and put them back on, complaining: "Can you pay attention to online etiquette? Don't swear when my sister is around."
"Boss, how would we know your sister is here? Let's play another game? Let's do it live this time." Someone laughed in the headset.
Qi Muyang thought about it and agreed. After turning on the live broadcast system, his face appeared in the camera and his number of fans began to rise.
Most game anchors are famous for their excellent skills and commentary, but he is different. He relies on his looks and bad operation. After being stimulated by all kinds of great anchors, the general public suddenly discovered that some anchors' skills are not as good as theirs. At first, they came to watch with curiosity, but gradually found that Qi Muyang was simply poisonous, and they felt uncomfortable if they didn't see him once a day.
"It's hard to imagine that I, a straight man, would one day be so obsessed with another straight man."
This is the most common comment in every live broadcast of his.
Qi Muyang didn't care about these things. He just liked playing games. If he could make some pocket money at the same time, that would be great.
"Boss, the three of us will lead you this time. I don't believe we will lose again." Another voice in the headset said leisurely.
Qi Muyang sneered: "My skills have always been like this. If you can't win, it's just your own fault."
As soon as he finished speaking, the word "shameless" appeared on the screen.
When Yueyang came in again, he saw at a glance how they were humiliating his brother. He walked up to him with a droopy face and climbed on top of him without saying a word.
Qi Muyang was busy operating the machine. Seeing her coming, he hurriedly said, "Wait a moment, baby. Wait until I finish this game."
"When will you finish fighting?" Yue Yang asked seriously.
Qi Muyang thought about it seriously and said, "He will probably die in two minutes."
He was so straightforward in recognizing his own weakness that his teammates and fans laughed at him again. Yue Yang glanced at the screen gloomily, and waited patiently until his character died before he stretched out his chubby arms: "Brother, hug me."
She looked like a doll, and her babyish voice was very cute. When she acted like a spoiled child, the screen started to howl. Qi Muyang put the headphones aside, reached out and picked her up: "Why are you unhappy?"
His sister has the same personality as her father. She rarely acts like a spoiled child, and usually it's when she's in a bad mood.
"Brother, do mom and dad still give you pocket money?" Yueyang asked gloomily.
Qi Muyang laughed: "Do you want to buy something? Brother has money, buy it for you."
When facing his sister, he was unlike his usual irritable and impatient image and acted like a well-behaved big dog. His sister was also very cute, and the brother and sister looked so beautiful sitting together. Fans were even more cheerful in giving them gifts.
Qi Muyang focused all his attention on Yueyang and didn't pay attention to the crazy comments. Seeing that Yueyang didn't say anything, he patiently asked, "What happened? Did your parents say anything to you?"
"No," Yue Yang shook his head and asked carefully after a while, "Brother, do you really have money?"
"... Is what you want very expensive?" Qi Muyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She kept asking him about money. It should be that her parents didn't want to buy her anything. And according to her parents' loving personality, they would buy her something unless the family really couldn't afford it.
Yue Yang hesitated for a moment, took out her ID card from her strawberry bag, and said word by word: "Brother, I have a lot of money, can I give it to you?"
Qi Muyang was stunned: "... Why?"
Yue Yang looked at him for a moment, and her eyes suddenly turned red: "Don't be a host anymore, don't let them scold you, I will study hard and listen to my parents in the future, and give you all the pocket money they reward me, okay?"
Qi Muyang: “…”
The comments were silent for a moment, and then they filled the screen with even more frantic comments: 'Sister Fairy, I'm crying.'
"I want a sister, too. The country owes me one."
'The above poster, the second-child policy has been implemented for nearly 30 years, and the population system has been abolished for more than ten years. The country does not owe you anything.'
Qi Muyang's heart was so warmed by his sister that he didn't care about the people in the game anymore. He just went out to play with the child in his arms. Two hours later, he remembered that the live broadcast was still on.
After being comforted by Qi Muyang, Yueyang seemed to be in a much better mood. Qi Muyang thought that the matter was over, but in the evening, Chu Qing held a family meeting with a serious face.
"What's wrong?" Qi Muyang looked puzzled.
Chu Qing frowned and looked at him, then slowly said after a while: "Yueyang said, you are always scolded online?"
Qi Muyang: “…”
"Actually, I can understand that. Your skills are so poor, yet you insist on being a host. I would scold you too." Chu Qing expressed her deep understanding for today's netizens.
Qi Muyang was speechless: "Mom, you also know the online environment, in fact, it is just some jokes, not really scolding people."
"... Anyway, as long as you are happy, it's fine. I just want to tell you that if you really don't want to find a job, you can just play at home. You don't have to force yourself to do anything. Everyone has their own way of living. As long as you can ensure that you can stay at home for a long time and still be physically and mentally healthy, then we have no objection to you." Chu Qing sighed.
Qi Weichen nodded: "There is a big difference between professional players and amateur players. You should choose an easier way."
"Brother, I will support you." Yueyang said in a baby voice.
Qi Muyang looked at the three people with a helpless look: "I'm really not that bad. How about I show you my live broadcast account? I have a lot of fans."
"Oh, don't show me. I can't breathe when I think about someone scolding my son." Chu Qing immediately covered her face. In fact, when he first started to be a broadcaster, she and Qi Weichen often gave him tips, but later they were too busy for a while, and they heard that he was famous for his bad cooking, so they didn't dare to watch.
Qi Muyang had no choice but to comfort the three of them. He returned to the house only after they were no longer so worried. When he was playing with his phone, he found that the video of him and his sister had become a hot topic. He couldn't help feeling guilty.
Not wanting to worry his family, he decided to find something else to do to prove that he was not as pathetic as they thought. However, after searching around, he found nothing to do. It just so happened that Fatty and the treacherous minister were planning to expand the restaurant and needed a large sum of money, so he simply invested money and became a shareholder.
After hearing that he was going to invest in a restaurant, Chu Qing secretly found his room and said in a low voice: "I still have some money here, you can keep it for use."
"Mom, I have money." Qi Muyang was helpless.
Chu Qing glared: "How much money do you have? Here are more than two million, take it and use it."
"… There are so many. What if I lose all the money?" Qi Muyang raised his eyebrows.
Chu Qing laughed, and fine lines appeared at the corners of her eyes: "Then just pay it back, money is something outside of your body, understand?"
"But the investment is more than 10 million." Qi Muyang said innocently.
Chu Qing paused: "So many?!"
"Um."
Chu Qing frowned: "Then, then we should sell another house?"
Qi Muyang smiled, not wanting to tease her anymore: "Okay, Mom, I really have money." Then he showed her his phone.
Chu Qing was stunned when she saw the amount on it: "Where did you get so much money?"
"I'm a live streamer, and I get tips from fans," Qi Muyang said, taking the opportunity to prove himself, "I've told you guys I'm very popular, but you just didn't believe me. Do you believe me now?"
Just as he finished speaking, Qi Weichen came in. After seeing Chu Qing, he paused for a moment and walked over with understanding: "Are you here to give me money?"
"... You too?" Chu Qing asked in confusion.
Qi Weichen said calmly: "All my money is with you. I have no money, so I want to ask him if he needs me to introduce him to a loan."
Qi Muyang: "... Dad, are you a little too henpecked?"
"How normal." Qi Weichen was not ashamed.
Chu Qing added: "You'll know when you have a wife."
Qi Muyang looked at the couple speechlessly and kicked them out. Before going to bed, the door opened again. He looked up but didn't see anyone. When he lowered his head, he saw Xiao Douding running over.
"You want to give me money too?" Qi Muyang smiled.
Yueyang ran to the bed and looked at him: "Brother, am I causing you trouble?"
"No, Yueyang just cares about me." Qi Muyang hugged her.
Yueyang sighed deeply: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have told my parents."
"What do you know, little brat?" Qi Muyang laughed.
Yue Yang retorted seriously: "My IQ is 140, I'm not a brat."
"Come on, come on, you smart girl. The matter has been resolved. Don't worry about it anymore, okay?" Qi Muyang coaxed his beloved sister.
Yueyang took out his ID card from his pocket: "Then I'll give you the money."
"How much money do you have?" Seeing her giving him money again and again, Qi Muyang finally couldn't help but laugh.
Yue Yang thought for a moment and said, "A few million."
"...How much?" Qi Muyang opened his eyes wide.
Yue Yang looked at him in confusion: "Several million, I forgot the exact amount."
"Where did you get so much money?" Qi Muyang was shocked.
Yue Yang yawned a little and looked at him with a smile: "Grandma gave it to me."
"Why would I give you so much money?"
“My grandma said she would give me money to support my brother in his old age.” Yueyang answered seriously.
Qi Muyang: “…” This was not given to his sister, it was clearly given to him by his sister. He could see that the whole family, young and old, were a little worried about his future direction.
Qi Muyang sighed, hugged the little girl with a smile, reached out and got a blanket to cover her: "Go to sleep, baby, you have to grow up well, so that you can help me in my old age."
Yueyang nodded seriously.
From that day on, little Yueyang had the idea of helping her brother in his old age in her heart. Even though her brother's restaurant grew bigger and bigger, and even though her brother later opened a very famous translation company, she never gave up this idea.
As for Qi Muyang, after knowing that his sister had not changed her mind, he retired at the age of 40. With his unique thinking, he gave half of his huge fortune to his sister and then waited for her to support him.
In this regard, both fans and friends expressed serious disgust. However, the more disgusted they were, the more proud Qi Muyang became. He would show off his sister from time to time, and he felt very happy.
Qi Yueyang becomes more and more aloof as she grows older, and doesn't like a too ostentatious life. After all, Qi Muyang is a semi-public figure, and mentioning her too much may occasionally cause trouble to her.
"If you don't like it, I'll ask your brother to say less." Chu Qing said worriedly.
In response, Qi Yueyang just sighed and said, "Forget it, he's my own silly brother, just spoil him."
Life is so short, let him do more happy things.
The author has something to say: This extra chapter ends here. The other two are also very short. I expect to finish writing them in the next two days, and then this book will really end.
