House Dad’s Literary Life Chapter 58

Chapter 58 – Inner Guilt

“Well, Yang Yi, how come I didn’t realize that you were so rich?”

Mo Fei finally came back, but then came her questioning and interrogation.

As Yang Yi expected, she soon discovered Yang Yi’s petty bourgeois life1. He not only arranged a lot of expensive furniture and equipment in the coffee shop, but also bought a lot of brand clothes for Xixi, a large wardrobe full of clothes!

Mo Fei asked Yang Yi to take photos before, but because the cell phone pixels in this world were still very low, Mo Fei didn’t saw them clearly, so she didn’t know that all the clothes Yang Yi bought for Xixi were expensive.

With regard to this, Mo Fei was still on the level of suspicion, but seeing Yang Yi’s seemingly expensive Tyrant Wolf, Mo Fei’s suspicion turned to worry!

“Tell me honestly, did you do something bad?” Mo Fei bit her lower lip and endure until they went upstairs. Xixi was watching TV in the living room. She pulled Yang Yi to the kitchen and almost blocked him against the wall.

“Do something bad?” Yang Yi pretended to be confused.

Mo Fei’s eyes were red with anxiety: “You’re still lying to me, you didn’t do anything bad, where did you get so much money? Buying clothes and a car? “

Yang Yi was shocked. Mo Fei’s emotional outbreak was a bit sudden, and it made him a little flustered, especially seeing her red eyes. Yang Yi felt that he had really done something wrong. He was inexplicably ashamed.

Seeing Yang Yi dodging her eyes and saying nothing, Mo Fei stamped her foot anxiously and said, “If you are short of money, tell me. You are Xixi’s Papa. Can I not help you? Besides, I also have a lot of money! Why do you have to do those bad things? “

Looking at Mo Fei’s appearance, Yang Yi also felt very uncomfortable, and he didn’t know why. He suddenly remembered that after he was reborn, he had “taken back” 2 million! At first, he thought it was right, but now, facing Mo Fei’s sincere eyes, why does Yang Yi felt that this was the most shameful thing he has ever done?

From the beginning, he didn’t dare to be outspoken with Mo Fei!

“What have you been thinking? What bad things can I do?” Yang Yi smiled reluctantly and acted according to the script he had thought about before.

“Tell me! Where did you get all that money? Could it be that you’re… you’re selling yourself?” Mo Fei was as tough as before, and then her voice gradually softened. “Don’t hide it from me, even if it is… even if it is a bad thing, let’s try to solve it together. I still have a lot of money, and maybe I can help you get out.” (TN: Not sure if I’ve got the “selling yourself” part right. Raw: 莫不成,你去贩……贩独了?Selling himself here means like a hired thug, doing dirty things. I think.)

This silly woman…

Yang Yi is also a person of flesh and blood. He was moved by Mo Fei’s words. However, he is not a person who likes to show his emotion. The more such unfamiliar emotion grows, the more he wants to be ordinary.

“Mo Fei, calm down.” Yang Yi grabbed Mo Fei’s shoulder. Mo Fei, who is a little over 1.7 meters, looks tall, but her body is very thin, with the exquisiteness of a southern woman.

Mo Fei didn’t comply, and just like Xixi, Yang Yi must give her an answer.

“Good, I’ll tell you, I do have other sources of income, but it’s all proper business!” Yang Yi took Mo Fei to his study. He turned on the computer and pointed out his current series of popular novels to Mo Fei. “I published a book online, but I didn’t expect it to be very popular.”

Yang Yi deliberately obscured the time of publication, and Mo Fei has not thought of this point. She sat down skeptically, scrolled the mouse, and read the brief introduction of the book.

Seeing that it was a military novel, Mo Fei breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t read the main text, but she still believed that Yang Yi could indeed write such a novel. After all, this guy really had the experience of being a soldier.

“You make so much money writing a book? And bought a car?” Mo Fei frowned, a little puzzled.

Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, “Yes, I should be able to get over a million yuan this month.”

It is now June 3rd. According to the data collected by the system background yesterday, Yang Yi’s sales share in May plus the bonus share, according to the new ratio, Yang Yi can get 1,174,214.08 yuan.

Of course, reward still accounts for a high proportion. Online sales, for the time being, can’t show the power of “Soldier Assault”.

Mo Fei looked at Yang Yi strangely and said somewhat sour: “Writing books makes so much money? If I had known that, I wouldn’t have refused when I was asked to publish an autobiography a few years ago. I’ve been running around so much, but I can’t make a few dollars a month!”

Of course, Mo Fei is exaggerating. After all, she was a big star four years ago. Even if her influence isn’t as great as before, her performance fee is not comparable to that of ordinary second-tier stars!

In the two weeks of business performance and publicity, her income can also be compared with Yang Yi’s!

If she can return to the top after the release of her new album, then her income from holding a concert will probably be two or three million! Of course, the income from selling songs will be more!

(Andy Lau’s concerts were the most profitable, with more than 10 million at the box office, and Andy Lau got more than 4 million with three CDs.) (TN: Author’s trivia)

Obviously, Mo Fei was only acting to be sour, and the faint smile on the corners of her mouth exposed her delight.

Now she can confirm that Yang Yi hasn’t done anything illegal for personal gain. As for Yang Yi being able to make so much money by writing books, Mo Fei was also happy for Yang Yi.

“Stay for dinner tonight?” Yang Yi looked at Mo Fei, who had crossed her long legs that’s in black stockings and was reading his novel with great interest. The latter had no intention of moving, so he had to pour a glass of water to her and asked helplessly.

Mo Fei glanced at the water handed by Yang Yi and drank half a cup impolitely. Her red lips left lipstick marks on the cup.

“No, Sister Ling had invited me to dinner tonight, and I must also bring Xixi.” Mo Fei paused and glanced at Yang Yi, but didn’t say what was in her heart.

It’s not the time to tell others about Yang Yi… Mo Fei herself was a little confused. What was her relationship with Yang Yi?

Forget it, I’d rather not!

…….

Mo Fei went back with the reluctant Xixi, but she didn’t pack Xixi’s clothes, toys and daily necessities.

With the release date of her new album approaching, she is getting busier and busier. She may take Xixi back to stay for a few days, and then return her back to Yang Yi to take care of.

“You’ve bought a car! Next time, you have to come to my place to pick up Xixi! ” Before Mo Fei left, she asked Yang Yi to drive her and Xixi around the dam of the canal. She pursed her mouth and said with a little emotion, “Later on today, I’ll go straight to the hotel, and later you have to send me back!”

Yang Yi concentrated on driving and said calmly, “No problem, I’m just a phone call away.”
