Urban Most Awesome Dad

Chapter 4



Chapter 4 – Carousel _1

Afterward, Xu Fan took Tongtong to the amusement park, and this time Tongtong was incredibly happy since Xu Yixue was usually very busy with work and simply had no time to take her to play.

The amusement park had many attractions, but there weren’t as many suitable for four- or five-year-old children like Tongtong, so Xu Fan chose the most suitable one, that is, the merry-go-round!

Since today was Tuesday, there weren’t many people lining up, and Xu Fan directly joined the line at the ticket booth, whispering to Tongtong and queuing at the same time.

“Daddy, you have to take me to play, and when Mommy comes, you have to bring her here too,” Tongtong said seriously to Xu Fan, who glanced around and noticed that many parents had come with their children and nodded in agreement.

If it was for Tongtong, getting his hands on her mother wouldn’t be an issue either.

However, while the two of them were chatting, a couple arrived behind Xu Fan, with the man dressed in hip-hop attire and sporting dirty braids, grumbling to the woman beside him:

“What’s so fun about this merry-go-round? Why don’t we go for something more thrilling?”

The woman next to him was clinging to the man’s hand, cooing:

“Oh come on, just play this with me. It’s so romantic!”

These two didn’t seem to pose any problem, but Xu Fan suddenly heard the man pull out a cigarette, light it with a lighter, and take a deep drag, exhaling a cloud of smoke.

Xu Fan smelled the tobacco odor and frowned, turning around sharply to grab the man’s cigarette and said:

“There are children here. If you want to smoke, go to the public restroom.”

The man, seeing Xu Fan extinguish his cigarette without a word, had a flicker of anger in his eyes, especially upon noticing the child in Xu Fan’s arms and Xu Fan’s slim figure, he shouted loudly at Xu Fan:

“Kid! Do you know who the fuck I am? Daring to snuff my cigarette!”

“Is there a problem?”

Xu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the man before him.

He had taken Tongtong out for fun, to make his daughter happy. If this person smoked elsewhere, Xu Fan wouldn’t have cared, but since it affected Tongtong, he couldn’t tolerate it!

The hip-hop man was about to say something to Xu Fan when he suddenly caught Xu Fan’s gaze, shivered from head to toe, and broke out in a cold sweat!

He felt as if he’d encountered one of those gangsters who frequently hacked at people, not talkative but remarkably ruthless when getting into action, and this man’s gaze was just like those gangsters, even more fearsome!

The hip-hop man nervously swallowed his saliva and stuttered:

“I’m… I’m sorry, my bad.”

Having said that, the hip-hop man beat a hasty retreat, scrambling away, while the girl looked confused and hurried after him. But after following him a few steps, she stamped her foot in frustration and walked away.

Xu Fan saw the two people leave and turned back without saying anything else.

Although Xu Fan no longer possessed his cultivation, he was after all the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor. The murderous aura he had cultivated through seas of blood and mountains of corpses wasn’t something a small-time thug could withstand, was it?

“Wow, Daddy, look, it’s that auntie from before!” Tongtong exclaimed.

And it was at this moment that Xu Fan suddenly heard Tongtong in his arms speak up. He turned around and found that the couple he had encountered earlier at the hair salon had once again appeared behind him.

“Haha, little friend, we meet again?”

At this time, the middle-aged woman spoke to Tongtong, and Tongtong was extremely happy, she had a good impression of the auntie who gave her the teddy bear.

“Hello auntie, auntie, did you come especially to see Tongtong?”

Upon hearing Tongtong’s words, the middle-aged woman’s gaze stiffened, revealing a hint of sorrow, but she nodded anyway:

“Yes, Tongtong, I just wanted to play with you!”

Xu Fan also noticed something was off, but he did not feel any malice from the couple towards Tongtong, so he didn’t do anything.

Soon, they bought tickets for the merry-go-round and went straight to the machine. The merry-go-round slowly started, and Tongtong sat in Xu Fan’s arms, letting out bursts of happy laughter with the rotation, warming Xu Fan’s heart immensely.

“Oh! Go, little horse! Giddy up! Giddy up! And little bear, we three are best friends!”

Tongtong held one of the wooden horse’s ears in one hand and the teddy bear that the middle-aged woman had given her in the other, speaking with great excitement.

Seeing how much Tongtong loved the teddy bear, a glint also passed through Xu Fan’s eyes.

And since they had run into each other, the four of them started playing together, and during the conversation, Xu Fan learned from the two that one was named Lu Chennong and the other Zhang Lijuan.

The couple had been married for over a decade, but they had never had children. Both of them really loved kids, which was why they were so fond of Tongtong.

They visited the children’s park every week to play and watch other people’s children, and today they happened to run into Tongtong again.

Watching his wife play water fishing with Tongtong, Lu Chennong sighed and said directly to Xu Fan:

“I’ll be honest with you; we’ve made up our minds to adopt a child. Even though it won’t be our own flesh and blood, at least we’ll have a child, and it will stop the elders at home from nagging.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan finally understood why the couple was so fond of Tongtong. Seeing the look on Lu Chennong’s face, Xu Fan said directly:

“I see, in that case, do you want a biological child?”

Lu Chennong looked at Xu Fan, puzzled, but he still responded:

“Of course we do, it’s what we dream of, but it’s just not possible.”

“It’s not entirely impossible, come here, let me take your pulse.”

As Xu Fan spoke, he took hold of Lu Chennong’s wrist!

Lu Chennong, upon hearing Xu Fan’s words, saw a glimmer of hope flash in his eyes, but it quickly faded.

They had been married for over ten years, and during that time, they had tried everything — Eastern medicine, Western medicine, and even superstitions — all to no avail!

Could it be that running into a young guy out of the blue could solve the problem that had troubled them for so many years?
