Seeing the peculiar gazes of the students, Tang Yuxin coughed twice to compose herself, pretending not to know Xiao Fei.
"You… you all shouldn't stand here."
"Take your luggage and quickly follow the senior students to find your dorms."
Tang Yuxin said calmly.
After she finished speaking, she gave Xiao Fei a look and then turned and left.
Xiao Fei understood and nodded.
After the new students had all left, he silently walked in the direction Tang Yuxin had gone.
The two of them walked in silence, one in front of the other.
They left the school.
They came to a secluded street and finally stopped.
Their eyes met, and both of them were a little awkward.
The atmosphere felt a bit strange.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for a year, and they hadn't had much to do with each other before, only that one night of fleeting romance.
"Are you... doing okay?"
Tang Yuxin was the first to break the silence.
"Yeah, it's good."
Xiao Fei didn't act coy and said calmly, "How about you? How has this year been?"
It was a simple question.
But it seemed to have touched a nerve for Tang Yuxin.
She instantly broke down, her eyes beginning to redden.
"Waaah…"
Following that, tears streamed down her face.
A beautiful woman, even when sobbing, was still so lovely to look at.
Seeing Tang Yuxin suddenly burst into tears, Xiao Fei was instantly flustered.
He didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only take out a tissue while asking, "What's wrong? Please don't cry."
Tang Yuxin took the tissue and wiped the tears from her face.
Then she raised her head and said with utmost seriousness, "I've given birth to three children, and they're all yours."
Xiao Fei: "???"
Three children?
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, striking him hard.
Xiao Fei looked at Tang Yuxin in front of him in disbelief.
What kind of joke was this?
She had given birth to three children.
Could it be that the encounter a year ago resulted in triplets?
Xiao Fei felt this was simply too absurd.
"You don't believe me?"
Seeing the expression on Xiao Fei's face, Tang Yuxin seemed to have expected this.
She clenched her fists tightly, a little shyly, and said, "I only got pregnant after that night..."
"And I've only been with you..."
Xiao Fei stood there, still finding it hard to believe.
After all, this was a truly shocking development.
He couldn't quite accept it.
Suddenly becoming a father… he needed to be cautious about this. He didn't want to be a cuckold, raising someone else's child, right? If this was truly his child, he would definitely take responsibility.
But if it wasn't…
Tang Yuxin knew that just her words wouldn't convince him.
So, she hailed a taxi and gestured for Xiao Fei to follow her.
Xiao Fei didn't know what Tang Yuxin was planning.
But to find out if he was really a father, he got into the car with her.
...
Half an hour later.
The two arrived at an apartment complex on the outskirts of the city.
Tang Yuxin's place was twenty kilometers from the school.
Normally, the commute to school took over an hour each way.
To save money, she had to get up early every day.
Then, she would take three subway lines to get to school.
She didn't complain about it at all, and even seemed to enjoy it.
"We're here," she said.
Tang Yuxin led Xiao Fei to a dilapidated apartment building.
The two of them climbed the stairs and reached the third-floor rental unit.
They entered the living room.
Xiao Fei looked around.
The apartment wasn't big, but the layout was nice, with a simple two bedrooms and a living room.
The furniture and decoration were very simple, just a wooden sofa, a few chairs, and two beds.
There wasn't even a television.
At the same time, Xiao Fei also noticed that the coffee table in the living room was piled high with diapers and various sizes of milk powder cans.
As Xiao Fei was sizing up the situation, the bedroom door opened.
A middle-aged woman, around forty years old, emerged from the room.
"Miss Tang, you're back."
"I just finished changing the babies' diapers, and they're both asleep."
Tang Yuxin nodded and then turned to Xiao Fei, introducing, "This is Aunt Wang, the confinement nanny I hired."
"Hello."
Xiao Fei greeted her politely.
"Hello."
Aunt Wang sized Xiao Fei up and down, suddenly realizing something. She nodded and smiled, "You two chat, I'll go out and buy groceries."
After saying that, she wisely left the living room.
Then, Tang Yuxin led Xiao Fei to the bedroom.
Upon entering the room, Xiao Fei was startled by the scene before him.
He saw three chubby, fair-skinned babies lying on a large double bed.
They were lying there neatly, fast asleep.
The three little treasures were like porcelain dolls.
Especially the little boy in the middle, who looked like a little ball of flesh, making one want to reach out and give him a pat.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Fei was immediately dumbfounded.
"These… are all my children?"
Xiao Fei asked in surprise.
"Mhm."
Tang Yuxin nodded.
At this moment, a strange sound rang out in Xiao Fei's mind.
[Beep…]
Fatherly Love Like a Mountain System activated.
Congratulations, Host, on successfully meeting your child. Reward: 500,000 yuan.
Note: All subsequent funds will be legally and compliantly transferred to the Host's account by the System. Please use them with confidence.
System?
As a web novel writer, Xiao Fei was more than familiar with the concept of a system.
He never thought, after writing web novels for so long, that he would finally be the one bound to a system?
He quickly calmed his excited heart and secretly asked in his mind, "System, can you introduce your functions?"
Okay, Host.
This System is the Fatherly Love Like a Mountain System, designed to help the Host become a qualified and excellent stay-at-home dad.
As long as the Host takes good care of the children, they will receive various rewards.
The System will also release various tasks at any time, and completing the tasks will grant even more generous rewards...
After listening to the System's explanation, Xiao Fei already roughly understood the functions of this system.
As long as he takes good care of the children, he can get rewards, and completing tasks will grant even more rewards.
And right now, he happened to have three children.
Although Xiao Fei still didn't know how to take care of a child, he decided to give it a try for the System's reward.
