After the first frost, the autumn wind became chilly.
Mr. Huo added a new routine of taking the little angel to the park, and the elderly people who frequented the park soon became familiar with him. After all, a young man who is tall and handsome is not a common sight, especially when accompanied by someone special.
The affectionate and caring interactions between them, involving hugs and kisses, hinted at a relationship that some considered taboo.
The old men and women in the park couldn’t help but gossip, with one old lady scolding them, “It’s 8102 now, and there’s still talk of taboo relationships. Get lost.”
Despite the fact that same-sex marriage had only been legalized in the country five years ago, the older generation’s attitudes toward homosexuality often reflected traditional views, similar to the old man in the park.
It’s quite normal for same-sex couples to attract attention and discussions when walking down the street.
Huo Yun Chuan didn’t intentionally create distance between himself and An Wu Yang while being outside. On the contrary, due to the potential dangers outside, he never let go of An Wu Yang’s hand.
Whether sitting together for a break or leaning against each other while drinking water, the elderly folks in the park perceived them as being overly affectionate.
An Wu Yang noticed that the elderly men and women were shielding the children’s eyes when they were around. At first, he was puzzled, but later he understood the reason behind it.
Melancholy.
“What’s wrong?” Huo Yun Chuan’s voice landed on the young boy’s fair cheek along with warm lips.
Mr. Huo is so gentle; An Wu Yang sighed with such sentiments in his heart.
“Nothing.” It was just a completely normal occurrence.
An Wu Yang quickly rallied and put on a healing smile.
With rosy lips, curved eyebrows, and a straight, high nose bridge, he looked beautiful.
Huo Yun Chuan lifted An Wu Yang onto his lap, encircling him with both arms as they watched the leaves twirling in the air.
Now he believes that there truly is someone in the world who is meant for him.
Even though this person is only eighteen, there are countless possibilities in the future.
It was a bit after ten o’clock that day, and An Wu Yang sat on the sofa watching TV while eating candied fruits.
“… ” His expression suddenly changed, but he didn’t find anything unusual and continued eating.

As he ate, his brows furrowed again. “Strange.”
“Ah…” The young boy suddenly exclaimed, his face filled with fear.
Huo Yun Chuan heard the sound from inside and rushed out like the wind, “Yang Yang?” He saw An Wu Yang sitting fine, but with a layer of cold sweat on his back, he asked, “Did you just call out?”
The silly An Wu Yang looked at him, unable to speak.
Huo Yun Chuan was quite scared by An Wu Yang’s reaction. He walked over and squatted down, carefully checking, but couldn’t figure it out, “Quick, tell me, where does it hurt?”
At this moment, An Wu Yang still held a bag in one hand and candied fruits in the other. Upon hearing the words, he quickly put down what he was holding, wiped his hands clean, and touched his stomach.
A small foot kicked his hand, and he exclaimed, like a startled grasshopper.
“He, he kicked me…” Little Angel said.
Huo Yun Chuan was momentarily stunned, his whole person staring like Little Angel, looking strangely rare.
Well, it’s been over four months, and the doctor mentioned that the baby would start showing fetal movements.

Huo Yun Chuan said, “Let me feel it…”
An Wu Yang obediently nodded and released his hand.
The baby in the belly seemed to be an active little one, moving continuously for quite a long time once it started.
Not only did Huo Yun Chuan get kicked in the hand, but he also got kicked in the face.
The silly daddy, however, had a happy face, standing by Little Angel’s belly, waiting for their little baby to move again.
Not long ago, the old man created a WeChat group with all the informed individuals.
An Wu Yang didn’t use WeChat often, but everyone always liked to bring him into the conversation.
Well, it seemed like everyone encouraged him to speak more, which could be considered very kind to him.
An Wu Yang: (〃\’▽\’〃) The baby is turning over in the belly~~~
Using exaggerated emoticons was to make his comments not look too serious.

Of course, there was also an undeniable sense of joy and excitement!
Huo Yun Chuan appears instantly: Love you all.
Huo Yun Chuan: @All members.
Take the opportunity to include everyone for the joyous sharing.
Old Master Huo: Great job, young man. Grandpa loves you. [Emoji]
Several single friends join the conversation one after another: [Laughter/][Laughter/] Such a lively kid, fantastic.
However, thinking back to the past few years, it felt like a dream.
They couldn’t help but sigh; Huo Yun Chuan’s life is really good now.
Ji Ming Jue: Still a few months before birth, I’m already decided as the godfather.
Huo Dad: @Yanyan, you’ve worked hard. Please tell the baby that he has a grandpa.

Huo Mom: @Yanyan, and there’s a grandma here. [Grinning/]
Huo Yunchuan: I confiscated his phone, so he can’t play with it too much for now. @Grandpa, could you please control your desire to chat a bit?
Grandfather’s small window An Wuyang has been caught by him many times, and the key is that the old man can chat endlessly.
Old Master Huo: …
He felt that he was definitely not the only one who found it strange. How could Yanyan fall for his eldest grandson, who looks like a school principal? It’s probably because he’s too young, only caring about looks and physique.
After the start of winter, the temperature began to drop rapidly.
The routine activity of going to the park for a walk came to an end.
An Wuyang doesn’t mind much, because after five months of pregnancy, his feet began to show signs of swelling, making walking quite tiring.
Now, every night, he has to soak his feet and massage them; otherwise, he might experience cramps during sleep.
It is said that pregnancy cramps are due to calcium deficiency.
However, since getting pregnant, An Wuyang has been consistently taking calcium supplements without interruption.
At night…
霍昀川 and the little angel soak their feet together in a specially designed foot basin, the little angel’s feet stepping on his, appearing chubby due to the swelling.
Each round and plump toe looks inexplicably cute.
However, this thought only crosses his mind momentarily. Huo Yun Chuan knows that pregnancy puts a heavy burden on the body.
He feels deeply concerned and takes care of him diligently every day.
Now, the little one is happily stepping on his feet.
Huo Yun Chuan also touches An Wuyang’s feet, gently tickling the soles from below using his toes.
“Um…” An Wuyang widens his eyes.
Huo Yun Chuan calmly says, “You should step on mine first.”
An Wuyang: “…”
This person is so childish.
Huo, the childish big CEO, cleans his feet and takes out massage cream, patting his own thigh. “Come up.”
An Wuyang, used to it, places his feet there, allowing the other to start massaging.
“Winter break is here.” The young lad lies down, head resting on the sofa pillow.
Huo Yun Chuan, with his fingers on An Wuyang’s feet, looks at his protruding belly. “Hmm, do you want to go home?”
An Wuyang shakes his head. “No.”
“Well, that’s true,” Huo Yun Chuan says, “Even if you want to, you can’t go back.”
An Wuyang is puzzled, seemingly not understanding what he said wrong.
If it’s about going home, then Mr. Huo is indeed sensitive.
He earnestly says, “I really don’t want to go back; I want to spend the New Year with you.”
Huo Yun Chuan’s hand trembles a bit, evidently not expecting the little angel to suddenly say something cheesy.
“Oh.” After a few moments of silence, he twisted his head and leaned down, kissing An Wuyang’s lips.
Direct and explicit, he pried open the young man’s teeth, advancing forcefully like a storm swirling within, and then withdrew.
Huo Yunchuan took a few light breaths, his lips still lingering with the sweet taste of youthful spring, like the flavor of orange soda on a summer day.
“Brat…” An Wuyang’s gaze wandered indecisively, his lips adorned with a rosy smile as he uttered the insult.
The man being scolded remained calm, responding to the picturesque youth in his arms, “Not yet, at least for now.”
An Wuyang bit his lip, sat up, and reached out to press a few times on Huo Yunchuan’s crotch.
Huo Yunchuan looked at him, and he looked back at Huo Yunchuan.
In the clear black and white of his eyes, Huo Yunchuan, on this chilly night, found himself lost in the rustic endearments of the little angel and the honeyed atmosphere they created.
Finally on winter break, the chubby Xue Jiayang swiftly packed up and headed home. In his luxurious room, he relished a night of not being squeezed and catching his breath.
The next day, he immediately called his friends and made plans to hang out.
When An Wuyang received the call, he nonchalantly said with his eyes wide open, “Ah, we’re also on break. Yeah, not going home, working part-time near the school.”
Xue Jiayang exclaimed, “Damn, working again. You’re like a workaholic…”
He didn’t know what to say. Working during winter break, why not go out and have fun or chase after girls?
“Well, forget it. I’ll go have fun by myself.” But he couldn’t help but ask, “Where are you working?”
An Wuyang replied, “Near XX Plaza.”
It was a bustling commercial area, quite spacious, and encounters were rare.
Without saying much, the next day, Xue Jiyang went there quietly, planning to surprise his buddy.
However, his surprise didn’t work out. Instead, Xie Ran, a classmate, gave him a surprise.
In temperatures below freezing, the other person was distributing flyers in the cold wind. He was wearing the same clothes he had on in the fall.
Xue Jiyang sighed inwardly. Wearing such clothes outdoors in Beijing’s winter, it seemed like a choice between wanting to die or not live anymore.
The warm-hearted big guy, taking off his own down jacket, walked over and wrapped it around the person’s head without saying a word, “Are you sick or something? How much can you earn by distributing flyers in one day? Is it enough for your medical expenses?”
Xie Ran struggled out of his down jacket, and his dark eyes lacked any warmth as he looked at Xue Jiyang, saying, “During the winter break, in the single period, you have to do something.”
Without a second word, Xue Jiyang slapped the back of his head, saying, “What’s the point? Come on, let me treat you to hot pot.”
The daily annoyances pressed on him were, in his heart, just trivial matters. Seeing Xie Ran in such a pitiful state now, he wouldn’t hold grudges over those minor issues.
Otherwise, with so many ways to resolve things, if one was determined, they would have been resolved long ago.
Xie Ran had never been slapped on the back of his head in his life, and he would fiercely resist anyone trying to hit him. However, considering the current circumstances, the wealthy guy in front of him didn’t seem intentionally malicious, so he didn’t bother to dwell on it. Tossing the flyers carelessly into a corner, he wrapped himself back in his down jacket and followed along.
Winter in Beijing was indeed quite cold, and he was starting to regret distributing flyers.
The light-colored down jacket on Xie Ran’s body was particularly warm. He sat on the chair, wrapping it a bit tighter. Xue Ji Yang called the waiter to order, and after placing the order, he looked displeased at his foolish roommate, saying, “Xie Ran, where did all the money I gave you go? You didn’t even buy a down jacket. Do you think Beijing’s winter is easy to endure?”
Xie Ran didn’t say anything, staring at the tabletop as if looking a bit pitiful.
Xue Ji Yang sneered and said without kindness, “I have a soft spot for people, even though you’re such an idiot. How about this? Just call me ‘Brother.’ From now on, in Beijing, I’ll have your back.”
The other still remained silent.
Xue Ji Yang found it quite dull and decided not to bother warming his face against someone else’s cold butt.
After the impoverished and studious handsome boy had eaten his fill, he wiped his oily mouth with a tissue and shouted at the foolishly eating leftovers tycoon, “Brother.”
The chubby guy’s chopsticks clattered to the ground, and he quickly bent down to pick them up.
He swore that when he sneakily glanced up, he saw Xie Ran smiling.
“…” Xue Ji Yang squatted on the ground, cursing himself for being stupid. He knew that the other person had a somewhat ‘gay’ vibe, and he was definitely done for by doing this.
But having dug the hole himself, he had to bury himself in it.

Upon hearing that Xia Er wouldn’t be going home this winter break and planned to work near the school, Ding Wei was somewhat disapproving, “It’s so cold now, you need to think it over.”
An Cheng also disagreed, saying, “The winter break is so short, isn’t it better to stay at home?”
An Wu Yang said, “This job is a rare opportunity, it’s at a law firm.”
When his parents heard that it was a job at a law firm, they fell silent.
Indeed, the path for the second son would be even more challenging in the future. Since the child was determined to make an effort, there was no reason for the parents to stop him.
“All right, then go,” Ding Wei said, “Study seriously, show respect to your seniors, and you’ll be fine.”
“Okay, I know.”
That’s how An Wu Yang dealt with his parents.
After being on the phone for several minutes, he couldn’t stand anymore. His waist couldn’t take it, and he had to sit down and take a break.
The doctor mentioned that An Wu Yang’s belly wasn’t particularly large, but due to the slender physique of the young man, his waist appeared quite small. Now, carrying a child, his belly looked unusually prominent.
An Wu Yang’s limbs and cheeks seemed not to gain much weight; the increased mass was mostly concentrated in his belly.
Huo Yunchuan sometimes finds it hard to sleep when he watches him sleep.
As the due date approaches, he frequently calls Jiang Shaofei.
Jiang Shaofei is also uneasy. From a medical perspective, he cannot guarantee that An Wu Yang is entirely safe. However, as a friend, he always chooses his words carefully to comfort Huo Yunchuan.
One night, thunder roared, and a storm raged outside the window.
Startled by a loud clap of thunder, An Wu Yang woke up. His heart pounded, and the baby in his belly moved vigorously.
He reached out to pat the man beside him, “Yunchuan, there’s thunder.”
Huo Yunchuan, in a light slumber, woke up and pulled An Wu Yang into his arms, saying, “It’s okay, don’t be afraid.” His voice was still groggy, but he began to skillfully comfort him.
He caressed his back and touched his belly.
Feeling the baby move, he reassured, “Don’t be afraid, Daddy is here.”
An Wu Yang nestled against Huo Yunchuan’s arm. After being comforted by him and settling his palpitations, he continued to sleep peacefully.
Huo Yunchuan took turns soothing the older and younger ones, but he himself struggled to sleep as usual.
After the first frost, the autumn wind became chilly.
Mr. Huo added a new routine of taking the little angel to the park, and the elderly people who frequented the park soon became familiar with him. After all, a young man who is tall and handsome is not a common sight, especially when accompanied by someone special.
