Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 921: Chapter 921: Fourth Uncle’s Call?

"It’s been a long day, and it’s only now that I managed to bring you back. You must be tired," Zhao Dingli said. "Go home and have a good rest."

"Luckily, tomorrow is Sunday, so no work," Zhao Dingli said with a smile.

This way Li Xiaoyun could rest more, and it wouldn’t matter even if she gets up a bit late.

It was already close to 10 o’clock now.

The time was indeed getting late.

Li Xiaoyun thanked Zhao Dingli and turned to go into the building.

Zhao Dingli stayed by the car until he saw a light on one of the floors upstairs.

He counted silently; it was on the 8th floor.

After noting this silently, he got back into the car.

Zhao Dingli was supposed to head to his own home.

Suddenly, something came to his mind, and he made a phone call.

Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei had just arrived home.

The little guy was in his own bedroom changing clothes.

Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei first returned to their bedroom. Instead of putting on home wear, they directly changed into pajamas.

Since it was already this time, even if they couldn’t sleep immediately, it wouldn’t be long before they would go to bed.

"There’s a movie I want to watch; it’s the mind-bending suspense type. It has a high rating on Poluo Net," Ye Fei said. "They say it’s extremely intricate, with lots of details. To really understand it, you’ll need to watch it multiple times."

Zhao Gushen nodded and said, "Then let’s use the projector and watch it in bed."

Although there’s an AV room at home, it’s so late that watching in bed would be much more comfortable.

Therefore, Zhao Gushen had also installed an anti-light projector screen on the wall facing the bed in the bedroom.

This makes the image quality for projection much higher.

"Would you like some red wine?" Zhao Gushen asked again.

Watching a movie while sipping some red wine.

Just thinking about it felt extremely cozy.

Ye Fei nodded eagerly, "Sure, sure, sure."

Zhao Gushen then went to get the red wine.

As soon as he went out, he saw the little guy had also changed and came out.

"Why are you not going to bed? What are you up to now?" Zhao Gushen asked when he saw him.

"I just wanted to see if you two were asleep yet," the little guy asked. "Are you guys going to bed?"

Zhao Gushen said, "We’re planning to watch a movie and have some wine before going to sleep."

Zhao Gushen did not lie to the little guy.

This was a principle that Zhao Gushen always adhered to.

As long as it’s not something that must be hidden from him, Zhao Gushen would not deceive the little guy.

Even though he knew the little guy would definitely want to join after hearing it.

But Zhao Gushen still spoke the truth.

As expected, the little guy immediately said, "I want to watch too! I want to watch too!"

He was so happy thinking about cuddling up with Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei to watch a movie!

Zhao Gushen said, "You can, though you might not like the movie we’re watching. You could fall asleep while watching."

The little guy nodded without thinking, "That’s okay! If I fall asleep, I fall asleep."

Zhao Gushen nodded, "Alright then, go wait for us in the bedroom."

The little guy nodded and said, "Dad, where are you going?"

Weren’t we all going to watch a movie together?

"I’m going to get the red wine so we can drink while watching," Zhao Gushen said.

The little guy thought to himself that adults sure know how to enjoy life.

He hadn’t tried red wine yet.

Before the little guy could say anything, Zhao Gushen said, "You can’t drink red wine."

The little guy, feeling deflated, said, "Okay, I won’t drink. What should I drink then?"

"What do you want to drink?" Zhao Gushen said, "Just have some milk."

What else was he thinking?

The little guy: "..."

"Go inside; I’ll get the milk for you," Zhao Gushen said.

"Okay." The little guy said as he made his way to the bedroom door.

The little guy knocked on the door twice: "Xiao Fei."

Ye Fei, who had just finished tidying up, opened the door for the little guy, "What’s up?"

"Dad said you guys were going to watch a movie, and I want to watch too," the little guy said.

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Sure, come on in."

"What movie are you guys planning to watch?" the little guy asked. "Dad said it’s a real brain-bender."

"This one," Ye Fei said, "but it’s in English with Chinese subtitles."

The little guy was not yet fully literate in Chinese, but he was also learning English and spoke it quite well.

However, it was uncertain if he could understand it all.

For the little guy, it didn’t matter if he understood the movie or not; he just wanted to watch it with Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei.

Even if he couldn’t comprehend it, it was fine.

"Alright," Ye Fei nodded with a smile.

Without Ye Fei saying anything, the little guy had already climbed onto the bed itself.

The little guy even stretched his little feet to show Ye Fei: "Xiao Fei, look, I washed them all clean. My little feet are super clean too." The little guy’s small feet were fair and tender, very clean.

Ye Fei then took a few more pillows over to make the little guy more comfortable.

The little guy nestled himself in the middle.

Ye Fei went ahead and turned on the projector.

There’s one projector in the AV room—its position was fixed and doesn’t move.

Every time it’s turned on, it hits the screen just right.

No need to adjust the image again.

The one in the bedroom was the same.

It was installed in the corner where the ceiling meets the walls, fixed in position, with the screen size already set for the screen.

No need for readjustment every time it’s turned on.

Once it was on, Ye Fei activated the screen mirroring feature.

She took out the iPad, found the movie she wanted to watch, and mirrored it onto the screen.

Ye Fei pressed pause first and did not let the movie play.

They had to wait for Zhao Gushen to come.

Once Ye Fei adjusted everything, Zhao Gushen came back just in time.

He was holding a tray.

On the tray were a bottle of red wine, two wine glasses.

Also, a box of milk and a glass cup.

One box of nuts.

"Oh dear, thank you, hubby. Hubby, you worked hard!" Seeing Zhao Gushen bringing so many things, Ye Fei quickly helped him with it.

Zhao Gushen loved hearing Ye Fei call him that.

Just for that "hubby", he’d do anything and as much as Ye Fei wanted him to.

"Remember to brush your teeth after eating," Zhao Gushen reminded the little guy.

"Got it." The little guy remembered, then said, "But what if I fall asleep while watching?"

"Then I’ll just drag you up to brush your teeth," Zhao Gushen said.

"Alright." That reassured the little guy.

Zhao Gushen took all the items off the tray and slid his hand underneath.

He folded it open.

It turned out the tray had a stand that folded out underneath it.

The tray was, in fact, collapsible. When folded, it served as a tray, but with the stand flipped open, it became a small bed table.

Perfectly positioned on the bed.

Zhao Gushen poured the wine and milk, while Ye Fei also opened the nuts.

All were placed conveniently on the little table.

Just as Ye Fei was about to start the movie, Zhao Gushen’s phone rang again.

Zhao Gushen picked up his phone and glanced at it, "It’s Fourth Uncle calling."

Ye Fei’s attention immediately shifted to him.

"Fourth Uncle’s call? Could it be about Xiao Yun?" Ye Fei asked.
