House Dad’s Literary Life

When faced with a dilemma, Mo Fei now turned to Yang Yi for advice. Now, she no longer had as many concerns as before. When she returned in the afternoon, she directly discussed the day’s events with Yang Yi. Then, she said with confusion, “Xiaojuan said we should delay it and not tell Sister Ling, but I just feel like that’s not right. Although I don’t want to renew the contract anymore, I can’t keep deceiving Sister Ling.”

“Do you feel guilty?” Yang Yi asked with a smile.

“Mm. Even though Sister Ling has become so unfamiliar now, during the early years of my career, she gave me a lot of help. She’s done so much for me, and I hope we can part on good terms. If we keep dragging it out without saying anything, won’t it end up like we’re enemies? Then, even if we meet again in the future, we might not even greet each other,” Mo Fei said worriedly.

In fact, this was an unsolvable situation!

Mo Fei wanted to leave, but Niu Meiling certainly wouldn’t want to let go of such a big star. A fallout was inevitable.

Still, Mo Fei still held onto the hope that there might be another way besides these two options.

If it were Yang Huan, Yang Yi would definitely scold her, saying that she couldn’t be so naïve. But now, seeing Mo Fei look at him with such pleading eyes, Yang Yi’s heart softened. He decided to think of a way to help her!

Got it!

For Mo Fei and Tianmei to part ways amicably, Niu Meiling would have to back down. However, it would be foolish to spend money to make her happy. They needed to find another way.

Didn’t Ju Jie proudly claimed to have shares in Tianmei, and that Ni Meiling was his relative? If he truly had as much influence as he claimed, perhaps he could convince Niu Meiling to let Mo Fei leave peacefully. In that case, Yang Yi might just “reward” him with a song!

“I’ve got an idea. You can talk to your Sister Ling directly, but don’t rush it. This matter can’t be resolved quickly,” Yang Yi reassured Mo Fei.

“Really?” Mo Fei misunderstood, her eyes lighting up.

Could they really just lay it all out with Sister Ling?

“Yeah, don’t worry. I have a way to make sure she won’t hold a grudge over your parting,” Yang Yi assured her, though he wasn’t fully confident. Still, he had to give Mo Fei some assurance.

At worst, just take Mo Fei away and replace her with Ju Jie, who is just as popular. Isn’t it just 12 songs? With Sister Ling’s money-hungry nature, she should be able to accept such a deal, right?

……

That evening, when Xixi returned home, Mo Fei, already in a better mood, helped the little girl take off her backpack and asked with a smile, “Xixi, did anything fun happen at school today?”

“They learned English today,” Yang Yi chimed in.

“English? Xixi, doesn’t that give you an advantage? You already know so much English!” Mo Fei eagerly asked.

Xixi laughed happily, waving her hand and saying, “No, Qiqi is really good too! Her Dad is an English teacher!”

“Tell your Mom what you learned today,” Yang Yi said, holding back a laugh.

“I learned ‘Ay-pu,’ ‘Ba-na-na,’ and ‘orange’!” Xixi didn’t sense her father’s teasing and happily told her mother. The first two words were strange pronunciations, but the last one—orange—was pronounced correctly.

“What’s ‘Ay-pu’?” Mo Fei was puzzled.

“It’s apple, heehee!” Xixi grabbed a big apple from the fruit bowl on the table and twisted her little hand to show her mother as an example.

“Apple is clearly ‘Ay-pu’… no, wait, it’s apple! How could it be ‘Ay-pu’?” Mo Fei almost got misled by the little girl and couldn’t help but laugh as she playfully scolded.

“Haha, I spent a long time in the car trying to figure out what she was saying,” Yang Yi said with a cheerful laugh.

“But that’s still not right! Xixi, I remember that you used to say this word correctly. Could it be that your kindergarten teacher mispronounced it?” Mo Fei frowned, starting to suspect that the kindergarten teacher had misled the children.

“No, Teacher Cai said apple!” Xixi pronounced it correctly this time and giggled. “But then Xin’er said ‘Ay-pu,’ and it was so funny!”

“Just because it’s fun doesn’t mean you should mispronounce words. And if Xin’er got it wrong, you should help your friend and teach her the correct pronunciation,” Mo Fei gently taught her.

Xixi, feeling a bit scolded, was a little unhappy. She pouted and said, “But, but Teacher Cai already taught her!”

But Lan Xin still didn’t learn it, so how could it be Xixi’s fault?

Yang Yi smiled and mediated, “Alright, it’s not a big deal. If she can’t learn it now, it’s fine. Learning English at this stage is just about building a sense of the language. Kids are more receptive to new things, and establishing that early will make it easier to learn properly later. As for pronunciation accuracy, that can be corrected gradually once they start school.”

“And besides, we’ll be traveling abroad in the future. When you’re in a foreign country, facing real foreigners, forcing yourself to listen and speak in that environment will be much easier than analyzing each word one by one now.” Yang Yi patted Xixi’s little head and said with a smile.

“Papa, where’s abroad?” Xixi got excited when she heard about traveling.

“Abroad is many places, and the people there look different from us. Some may have golden hair and white skin, while others might have curly hair and black skin. But they’re all interesting people,” Yang Yi explained with a smile.

“I know, I know! Grandpa’s place! We’re going to Grandpa’s place to play!” Xixi jumped excitedly.

But this topic reminded Mo Fei of her conversation with Mo Xiaojuan earlier.

Later, when Xixi had played enough and gone to bed, Mo Fei poked Yang Yi and, resting her head on his shoulder, asked, “Husband, I want to ask you something. Do you mind my current work? I’m always out running around and often have to travel.”

Yang Yi wrapped his arm around Mo Fei and smiled gently. “Why would I mind? I know you’re doing it for work!”

“No, you have to tell me the truth. Don’t just comfort me. I don’t spend much time with you and Xixi. Sometimes Xixi complains. What about you?” Mo Fei drew circles on Yang Yi’s chest, saying with some anxiety.

“Alright, honestly, I do wish we could spend more time together. For example, we could take some time off to drive somewhere together, me, you, and Xixi, to travel and see the beautiful mountains and rivers of our country.”

“Or travel abroad, visit Venice, see the Seine River…” Mo Fei murmured, her eyes distant, “I actually really like traveling, but a lot of times I’ve been unable to do so. When I was pregnant, I went to Europe for a few days, but over all these years, that’s been the only trip I’ve taken.”

“Husband, I know I haven’t been doing well lately. Can you give me a little more time?” Mo Fei propped herself up and looked into Yang Yi’s eyes, speaking sincerely. “Give me a few more months to fulfill my contract with Sister Ling. After that, I’ll come to our studio, stop doing commercial events and appearances, and just focus on releasing songs and holding concerts. The rest of the time, I’ll spend with you and Xixi, and then we can also travel together.”

“Why are you so adorably silly? I already said I don’t mind,” Yang Yi laughed. He reached up and pinched her nose, saying, “Don’t put so much pressure on yourself. I’m actually very happy to see you every night.”

“But I think you do mind!” Mo Fei mumbled vaguely, “I’m also worried you’ll find someone else.”

Mo Fei had been scared by the story Mo Xiaojuan told her. It’s important to know that before she truly got together with Yang Yi, she was someone with very low self-esteem! Of course, now she understood Yang Yi’s character. If he were the type to cheat, he wouldn’t have distanced himself so clearly from the flower shop owner.

“What did you say?” Yang Yi didn’t catch it.

“Nothing!” Mo Fei stuck out her tongue playfully and smiled. “I know what to do now!”

“No, what did you say?” Yang Yi was curious.

“Nothing, nothing. I said I love you!” Mo Fei giggled and lay on his chest, looking up at him.

Yang Yi was instantly charmed. He rubbed her head and smiled, “I love you too!”
