Chapter 38 Husband? Daddy?

“Listen up, everyone, we don’t have too many questions this time, just three in total. So, it’s quite simple; you just need to get two questions right to pass.” The show was intentionally setting up Li Xingwan and Fu Chengzhou, this pair of strangers, as husband and wife, as well as the intimate moments between Fu Chengzhou and his son. Hence, they wouldn’t waste time on the question segment. So, they prepared relatively sharp questions. “Please tell us, what are the most affectionate nicknames you have for each other in your family of three?” Upon hearing this question, Li Xingwan and her son, Little Mobao, looked towards Fu Chengzhou simultaneously because they certainly had affectionate nicknames between mother and son. One was called Mommy. While the other was simply addressed by his full name, Fu Xiaomo!!! However… If they were recording the show today, Mommy would once again called him Little Mobao, in such a tender and gentle manner… If this was a dream, Little Mobao would definitely not want to wake up. For fear that upon waking, he’d return to a cold and distant home. And his mommy would also call him sternly by the name, Fu Xiaomo!!! As for Fu Chengzhou… Both of them were completely clueless—what should they call him? Husband? Daddy? One shuddered at the thought; the other flatly denied it. He wasn’t yet in a position to call him Daddy and had never addressed him as such over a phone call before. Now he definitely couldn’t bring himself to say it. So, Little Mobao straightforwardly wrote down the two characters “Man.” Li Xingwan initially wanted to write “husband,” but it felt a bit too contrived. Also, she felt embarrassed to write that. So, there was only one option left… With a troubled mind, Li Xingwan finally wrote down three characters on her answer board. “Mr. Fu.” First name… she didn’t know!!!! This should also be reasonable, right? Such a smart and capable man like him would surely come up with this right away. Address her as “Ms. Li”? So… Please reveal the answer boards. All three of them revealed their answers at once. Little Mobao had written down the nickname his mother liked to call him, “Little Mobao.” As for Fu Chengzhou, the little guy bluntly wrote two characters: “Man.” “Pfft! Hahaha!” Many people burst into laughter. No one expected this two-character reply. Man! He definitely is a man!! Li Xingwan turned red-faced when she saw what Little Mobao had written! Now she realized that this little guy was quite mischievous, wasn’t he? Next was Li Xingwan’s answer, which was consistent with Little Mobao’s. For this stepson, she also chose to write “Little Mobao.” She had nothing to do with the original mother! It all starts now! And for Fu Chengzhou, she went with the conventional answer, the three characters “Mr. Fu.” As for the nickname Fu Chengzhou would give her, she straightforwardly wrote “Mrs. Fu.” This answer was as standard as it gets. Moreover, he had called her that earlier. So, this was the safest bet. A shrewd character like Fu Chengzhou would certainly have thought of this too, right? If so, there would be some tacit understanding within the family. The camera switched to Fu Chengzhou’s answer. Watching the man who seemed aloof from worldly matters, with Buddha beads wrapped around his wrist, the online viewers in the live broadcast felt their hearts beat faster, speculating excitedly. “Do you think if he was initially tricked into marrying Li Xingwan and making her Little Mobao’s stepmother, he’ll openly admit now that he doesn’t have an affectionate nickname for her?” “Roar, why does that feel so satisfying?” “It’s over, it’s over; just when I was about to ship their CP, it might cool down now!!!” Not just the audience in the live stream but also Li Xingwan herself felt her heart racing.
