Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

"Hmm, getting ready to sleep..."

For some reason, Qiao Yu'an felt that his voice sounded a little hoarse when he heard those words.

He was worried that Akahoshi was sick, so he urged him to go to sleep.

"Then go to sleep quickly, we can play together tomorrow."

Akahoshi's screen suddenly turned towards the ceiling, and a deep voice came from behind: "Well, Ayu should go to sleep early too."

Qiao Yu'an didn't notice anything amiss. The thought of playing with Chi Xing again tomorrow dispelled the gloom in his heart.

Her voice sounded much lighter: "Okay, I'll go to sleep after I wash up. Goodnight."

Akahoshi's voice remained deep: "Good night."

Akahoshi couldn't help but exhale, his heart pounding. He hadn't meant to do it.

Seeing Qiao Yu'an's appearance and hearing his voice, I couldn't help myself...

He stood up, walked to the sink to wash his hands, his face and ears still a little red. If Qiao Yu'an saw him, he would definitely be able to guess what he had just done.

Lying back on the bed, Akahoshi released 250 from the small dark room.

Remembering the original storyline, Akahoshi asked, "Have you found out anything about what happened to my uncle?"

In the original storyline, Chi Mo knew that Qiao Ting had liked Chi Xing, so why was she still willing to be with him?

Chixing believed in love at first sight, but he didn't believe that Qiaoting had the ability to make his uncle fall in love with him at first sight.

250: [I found out something. Chi Mo's mother, your great-aunt Bai Shuyuan, is the head of a family abroad. She has forbidden Chi Mo from returning to China for years, but recently there have been signs that she is softening her stance.]

Akahoshi: [So Akamo will be back soon?]

250: [Yes, and over the years he's been trying to find an opportunity to secretly return to China, as if he's looking for someone very important.]

The Bai family has its own influence overseas, so in theory, Chi Mo doesn't need to come back at all, and Bai Shuyuan has never thought of competing with the Chi family for anything.

For this reason, Chi Jiangbei never mentioned that they had a young grandmother and a young uncle.

At the time, Akahoshi was still young and had no memory of this young lady, but Akahoshi knew her.

Akahoshi: [Could it be that the person he's looking for is Joting? Did they meet when they were kids?]

That makes sense. It's an old-fashioned storyline that we played as kids. We waited until we grew up to find each other, and the two of us went through all sorts of dramatic events, encountered many hardships, overcame difficulties, moved everyone, and finally became a couple.

250: [The timeline is wrong. When Chi Mo went abroad, Qiao Ting and Qiao Yu'an had just been born. He couldn't possibly have fallen in love with a newborn baby at first sight and remembered it for eighteen years, could he?]

Akahoshi fell into deep thought, then finally nodded: "It's not impossible; the plot itself is quite strange."

His grandfather was already over fifty years old back then, and he was able to find a young woman who wasn't after his money for a second spring. That's already ridiculous enough.

Akahoshi then thought of something else and said to 250, "Shouldn't the Qiao family hire a tutor for Ayu? Find the tutor's address; I need it tomorrow."

250: [Okay.]

The next day, Akahoshi got up very early.

Chi Jiangbei led Chu Chu downstairs, where Chi Xing was already sitting at the dining table.

When she first saw her uncle, she rushed over and tried to climb onto his lap.

"Uncle, Uncle, I miss you so much." Chu Chu's voice was sweet and childlike, and she smelled of milk.

Akahoshi didn't mind and lifted him onto her lap.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Last night, Chu Chu insisted on sleeping with Chi Xing, but Chi Xing's bed is only for his wife, so how could he possibly agree to let Chu Chu come over?

So they sent him to a room in Chijiangbei and let the grandfather and grandson sleep there.

Chi Jiangbei doted on this little grandson, so how could he possibly disagree?

Fortunately, Chu Chu wasn't a child who cried a lot. When she saw that Chi Xing disagreed, she obediently slept with her grandfather and tried to make him happy.

He came to cling to Akahoshi early in the morning. He liked his uncle because his uncle could take him to meet his beautiful aunt.

When he heard Akahoshi ask him, Chuchu smiled and replied, "Okay."

"Chuchu will play with Grandpa for a while, Uncle has to go out for some errands." Chixing thought about what she had to do later and felt that it would be a bit inconvenient to have the child with her.

Chu Chu looked at him with suspicion: "Are you planning to secretly go see your aunt?"

Chijiangbei, while eating breakfast: ?

If he heard correctly, the little grandson just called out "auntie"?

He looked at Akahoshi with a questioning gaze, as if waiting for him to explain.

Akahoshi had no intention of hiding it; she wanted her father to know about it.

In any case, Chi Jiangbei's opinion wouldn't have much of an impact on him, and besides, Chi Jiangbei wasn't the kind of domineering and autocratic parent.

Akahoshi nodded calmly: "I've fallen for someone and I'm pursuing him. I'll be able to win him over soon."

Chi Jiangbei's brows relaxed: "You should have found someone a long time ago. Your brother would have been with your sister-in-law by now when he was your age."

He had barely finished speaking when Akahoshi continued, "I like a man."

Chi Jiangbei:!

He looked up at his youngest son intently, as if asking: Are you sure?

Akahoshi returned a firm and open gaze.

Clearly, his decisions were never subject to anyone else's influence.

When they first met, they didn't say anything. Then, she happily said, "I also like the pretty auntie."

Akahoshi looked down and spoke to the little guy: "Okay, I'll take you out to play again next time."

After a long silence, Chi Jiangbei spoke again: "Are you sure? Can't we change it to someone else?"

He wasn't old-fashioned; he knew that sexual orientation was probably unchangeable, but he still couldn't resist asking.

Akahoshi: "I don't like men, nor do I like women. I just like him, regardless of his gender. I only like him."

Chi Jiangbei raised an eyebrow. "You brat, you're quite like me back then. But he and his wife are in love, and both families are happy with it."

"Alright, I didn't say I disagreed, but there are always things to be careful about when two men are together. You decide for yourself. If you succeed, bring her home to meet me. I'm your father, would I make things difficult for the person you like?"

Suddenly remembering something, he frowned and raised his voice slightly: "Wait, you don't actually like Qiao Ting, do you?"

He seemed to have heard someone say that Chixing was holding hands with the young master of the Qiao family.

Everyone else is fine, but Chi Jiangbei dislikes Qiao Ting from the bottom of his heart. Could it be that this brat...?

"What are you saying? I'm not blind, why would I be interested in him?"

Chi Jiangbei breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that it wasn't him."

That man looked calculating; if she married him, she'd be a troublemaker, and what if he bullied their Chu Chu in the future?

Chi Xing found it amusing to see him like this. He couldn't reveal Qiao Yu'an's name yet because he hadn't won her over. He would say so after he had her.

After breakfast, Chi Jiangbei took Chu Chu to the company.
