My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 543: Chapter 346: Mom and Dad, Why Don’t You Have a Second Child? (3)

"so~peng~so~peng~"

Outside the window, thousands of lights were flickering, and the sound of firecrackers and fireworks was incessant, reflecting off the glass with intermittent brightness. Even indoors, the sound was clearly audible. Li Peifeng spoke in a louder voice, "Not getting old, I think you’ve both become a lot younger these past two days."

Yu Huizhi was wrapping dumplings slowly and methodically with a smile on her face, "Seems like a bit, huh? The health supplement you gave us is really effective."

Li Qiyuan nodded slightly, "Indeed, at first I thought it was just psychological, but after taking it for two weeks, not only do I feel more energetic, but I’ve also noticed that the crow’s feet on your mom’s face have faded."

"And the skin has become smoother!" Yu Huizhi added, "Your dad used to have a lot of grey roots, but lately, I’ve seen them turn black again! Your aunt even praised me, saying I look at least four or five years younger."

Li Peifeng chuckled, "Great, if it’s working, then keep taking it. Finish all the supplements, and maybe you two can even have another child. So I have to remind you, don’t accidentally cause a life. Make sure you’re prepared before taking action..."

"Shut up."

Li Qiyuan snapped, "Watch your TV!" He then glanced at Yu Huizhi, whose face was slightly flushed, avoiding eye contact.

Due to the latest [Enhanced Hearing] modification, over the past week, Li had been overhearing things at night that he shouldn’t be listening to, and it was ear-splitting!!

Every night, seven days in a row, what’s with this frequency? This long-married couple is acting like young lovers in a passionate romance!

The rejuvenation of his parents’ bodies was undoubtedly due to the [Purple Ginseng and He Shou Pill] Li Peifeng had given them. After experiencing the extraordinary effects, they had asked Li Peifeng whether he could get more. However, Li managed to mislead them, stating that the old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who sold him the remedy had passed away, and the formula and ingredients were lost, thus quelling Li Qiyuan’s and Yu Huizhi’s interest.

Still, if he later won a similar prize, Li Peifeng planned to give it to them. After all, with his parents healthy, he can relax while away. If they’re sick, it would be quite distressing for Li, their only child.

"This is the live broadcast of the 2122 Spring Festival Gala. We join people of all ethnic groups nationwide to welcome the Year of the Tiger..."

Outside, the firecrackers started in the afternoon and never stopped. As Spring Festival Gala’s opening song and dance ended and the hosts came out, there was an even more intense burst of firecrackers outside. At this moment, in the small Ningyuan City were flickering fireworks and smoke, as a family gathered inside to chat.

"Your mom and I plan to spend the winter in Sanya on the third day of the Spring Festival. Are you coming with us or staying at home?"

Li Peifeng was slightly taken aback, "Ah, I won’t go. You guys go enjoy your honeymoon. I might return to school early... Hey, is the new building finished renovating?"

Li Qiyuan nodded, "It’s all done. No need to buy furniture, the ones Qingge sent are enough, but it still needs airing."

"The renovations used eco-friendly materials, but your dad and I plan to move in after six months."

"If we’re really going to move in, let’s wait for next autumn. When the summer heat comes, harmful gases like formaldehyde can dissipate."

"Right, move next autumn, by then you would likely graduate early."

"Fengfeng, your dad and I still feel a bit uneasy. You have one more semester until graduation..."

Yu Huizhi paused slightly while making dumplings and looked at Li Peifeng with a sincere expression, "At this point, what are you thinking?"

"About those four, aren’t you going to tell us?" Stopping his rolling pin, Li Qiyuan pondered, "You have to come up with a plan and tell us. Your mom and I might have some advice for you."

The conversation once again turned back to his relationship issues.

Li Peifeng was silent for a moment, sighed, "Honestly, Mom and Dad, here’s what I’m thinking..."

Eventually, he told his parents his plan to marry them one by one and get the marriage certificates in succession.

There was no way around it; even if Li Peifeng wanted to keep it a secret, he couldn’t. Because before marrying the four girls, at least Li Yu’s parents would have to meet the girls’ parents one by one, right?

He wasn’t an orphan; with both parents around, how could the kid get married without both parents meeting the in-laws? Even if they don’t meet before marriage, they’d still have to attend the ceremony, right?

So, for this plan to sequentially get marriage certificates, the cooperation of his parents was needed, and this cooperation was both difficult and easy...

"It’s very simple. At that time, you just forget about my relationship with the other three, and just chat and interact with their parents normally. Hey, do you understand selective amnesia? You can choose to be selectively amnesic like I was before!"

"When meeting Zhao Qingge’s parents, forget everything about Xu Manning, Wu Wenyue, and Huang Tianxuan. The same applies when meeting Xu Manning..."

Under the increasingly strange looks of Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi, Li Peifeng’s voice grew softer until he finally stopped speaking.

"Honey."

Yu Huizhi looked up at the standing Li Qiyuan and said with difficulty, "Do I remember there’s a saying about disowning a child in the newspaper?"

Li Qiyuan pressed his lips together, "That doesn’t have any legal basis."

"...What should we do about this?"

Yu Huizhi’s hands were trembling, seemingly unaware as she muttered continuously like she’d lost her soul, "What should we do? What should we do? What should we do?!!"

Li Peifeng chimed in quietly, "I say you should just have another kid. Then, when it comes to meeting the parents, I can say my mom’s pregnant and my dad’s taking care of her, so you don’t have to show up."

"Pa~"

Li Qiyuan, infuriated, slammed the rolling pin on the cutting board, shouting, "You brat, will you stop?"

"Ding ding ding~"

At this tense moment, the video call ringtone on Li Peifeng’s phone placed on the dining table rang...

The caller ID was He Yimeng!

"I’m out of here!"

Li Peifeng quickly got up, picked up his phone, and walked into the bedroom. If he didn’t run now, it would be easy to get beaten.

With the newly enhanced muscles and bones of his body, he’d surely withstand it, but he didn’t plan to test it—there was no need!

"..."

The couple in the living room stayed silent for a moment before Yu Huizhi seemed to snap out of it, hesitant and curious, "Who just called him? The name on the screen didn’t look like any of those four."

Li Qiyuan’s grip on the rolling pin tightened, his face growing darker, "Probably the fifth one... right?!"
