Urban Most Awesome Dad

Chapter 309: Three Months without Leaving the Bed _1

“Hu San, I give you a task: make him lie in bed for a full three months, and I’ll spare you. Otherwise, prepare to accept the Hu Family’s discipline,” Xu Fan said indifferently to Hu San below.

“Thank you, big brother! Thank you, big brother!” Hu San said excitedly to Xu Fan.

Hearing that there was finally a way to avoid the family discipline, Hu San finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if Xu Fan hadn’t mentioned it, Hu San wouldn’t have let Li Niu off the hook. If not for him, Hu San wouldn’t have been unwittingly dragged into the conflict with Xu Fan and nearly subjected to the Hu Family’s discipline.

Even if Xu Fan forgave him, after all, Hu San had already made a bad impression on the new boss, Zhao Dong, which would be very difficult to reverse, and it was all because of Li Niu.

So, both publicly and privately, Hu San couldn’t let Li Niu off.

To have him lie in bed for three months was an act of great mercy from Xu Fan; had he offended someone of the Hu Family, he might have already been thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.

“Boss Hu, I am your fitness coach, please, I really know I was wrong…” Li Niu, seeing the murderous look in Hu San’s eyes, quickly pleaded with him.

“Li Niu, don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not watching who you offend. Of all people, you had to provoke Mr. Xu, someone with extraordinary energy. Considering our acquaintance, I won’t make it too hard for you. Just lying in bed for three months should be enough. There’s an old saying that it takes a hundred days to recover from muscle and bone injuries. I’ll help you ‘loosen’ those muscles and bones. Old Seven here, since you broke his arm, I think it’s only fair that you ‘compensate’ him with another arm!” Hu San rubbed his wrists and looked at Li Niu cruelly.

In this world, there is always a nemesis for someone. Although Li Niu was not at all afraid of Xu Fan and even repeatedly clashed with him, when facing Hu San, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, not even daring to harbor a thought of resistance.

He had heard all about the Hu Family’s methods back at the gym, and even though he was big and strong, not necessarily weaker than Hu San, he had a family to think about and didn’t dare to confront the Hu Family’s power head-on.

With a “snap,” a pig-like scream then rose from the edge of the playground.

Xu Fan had already left with Tongtong to spare him the cruelty of the scene. Only after Li Niu’s screams echoed did Xu Fan shake his head, holding Tongtong and slowly walking towards Xu Yixue’s building in District One.

After taking Tongtong upstairs, Xu Fan placed the medals and trophies he had won on a shelf. Seeing the championship medals they had earned with their own abilities, Tongtong’s eyes filled with pride as he kept praising how beautiful the two trophies looked.

The gold-medal housekeeper, who had been waiting at home to tidy things up, was waiting for Xu Fan and Tongtong to return. Seeing them back, she hurriedly brought out the lunch that had been kept warm, waiting for their return.

The meal lasted nearly an hour, with both Xu Fan and Tongtong eating their fill.

After the meal, Xu Fan wiped the oily mouth of Tongtong and then placed him in front of the television, casually turning on a popular animated series.

As for Xu Fan, seeing Tongtong now immersed in the TV show, he entered Xu Yixue’s room to start his “cultivation” practice.

By the time Xu Fan’s practice ended, it was already past 7 PM. Upon stepping out the door, he saw that Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning still hadn’t returned home. Fortunately, because Xu Yixue had instructed, Li Yueqin had stayed for overtime and was currently preparing dinner for Xu Fan and Tongtong in the kitchen.

At this moment, Tongtong was still lying on the sofa, excitedly watching the television. The alterations Xu Fan made to her body had greatly improved her spirit; she had watched TV almost the entire afternoon and wasn’t tired in the least.

Seeing Xu Fan walking out, Tongtong immediately dropped the remote control and excitedly lunged towards him.

“Daddy, Tongtong is hungry, Tongtong wants to eat din-din,” Tongtong waved her little hands and flung herself at Xu Fan’s side, cooing.

Xu Fan tenderly held his little princess in his arms, ruffled Tongtong’s little head, and teased, “But Mommy hasn’t come home yet, so how can we eat without her?”

“Eh, that’s right, Tongtong has to wait for Mommy to come home, so we can eat together,” Tongtong patted her little deflated belly. Although she was really hungry, thinking of Mommy’s warm gaze, Tongtong suppressed her desire to eat by herself.

“Daddy, why don’t we go and find Mommy? She hasn’t come back yet, and Tongtong misses Mommy so much,” Tongtong said, tilting her little head cutely toward Xu Fan.

“Let’s give her a call first and see what’s happening,” Xu Fan pulled out his cellphone and shook it at Tongtong.

“Right, right, Tongtong wants to talk to Mommy,” Tongtong nodded seeing the phone.

Xu Fan then dialed Xu Yixue’s number, and after waiting for around ten seconds, Xu Yixue finally answered.

As soon as the call connected, Tongtong dodged Xu Fan’s hand and grabbed the phone.

“Mommy, when are you and Auntie coming back? Tongtong misses you so much, and din-din is almost ready. We’re just waiting for you two to come home and eat,” Tongtong spoke into the phone.

“Ah? Is it already time for dinner?” Xu Yixue said, sounding a bit groggy.

Clearly, Xu Yixue was so engrossed in work that she had lost track of time; it was already past seven, even though she was supposed to finish work at six. She hadn’t noticed how late it had gotten.

Xu Fan furrowed his brows; Xu Yixue’s voice was filled with exhaustion. It was obvious that the issues Xinghai Media was facing were not trivial matters.

“Come back home for dinner first, don’t let yourself starve,” Xu Fan gently said on the phone.

“Okay, okay, Xiaoning and I will finish up the last bit of business and head home right away,” Xu Yixue said tiredly.

“I should come and pick you guys up. You handle what you need to; I reckon it’ll take me around fifteen minutes to get there,” Xu Fan said over the phone.

From what Xu Yixue had said, he knew that she and Ye Xiaoning must have had an incredibly busy day.

Normally, Ye Xiaoning would be able to drive for Xu Yixue, but these past few days, Ye Xiaoning had become the company’s lead warrior facing the stock market crisis, bearing even greater pressure than Xu Yixue. Although Ye Xiaoning’s voice wasn’t heard on the phone, one could imagine how exhausted she must be.

Xu Fan was a little uneasy about letting two people, who had been working intensely all day, drive.

“Tongtong, let’s go pick up Mommy,” said Xu Fan, picking up Tongtong and getting ready to leave.

“Yay!” Tongtong agreed, her face alight with excitement.
