Chapter 362: Chapter 363: Daddy

"Come!" Huangfu Jue picked up a piece of fish that the little guy had grilled himself, "Let’s see how Xiaotang’s grilled fish turned out, start by smelling it!"

The little guy leaned in and sniffed, "Smells good!"

"Let me try it." He gently bit into a piece of fish, tasted it, and then let out praise, "Hmm... very nice."

"I want to try too." the little guy called out.

He carefully blew on the fish to cool it down before bringing it to Gan Tang’s mouth. The little guy took a small bite, initially a bit worried, but as the flavor of the tender fish spread in his mouth, he immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"Mommy, I can grill fish now!"

Gan Yuan didn’t react.

Watching the father and son together, she had once again become lost in thought.

"Give some to Mommy to taste!" Huangfu Jue placed the fish on a paper plate, carefully handing it to him, "Careful, don’t burn yourself!"

The little guy agreed and brought the fish over to Gan Yuan, who then snapped back to reality.

"Mommy, I grilled this."

"Really? That’s great!" Gan Yuan tasted a piece of fish and immediately nodded in approval, "It’s really very nice."

"Of course!" the little guy said confidently, "Just remember whose son I am."

She laughed, "Of course, you must have inherited Mommy’s excellent genes!"

While she was saying this, her gaze involuntarily shifted to Huangfu Jue.

Across the table, the man was also laughing—only he fully understood whom the little guy’s words truly referred to.

Huangfu Jue brought the grilled fish that was ready to the table, and the three of them sat around, eating and chatting. Gan Tang curiously asked Huangfu Jue who had taught him to grill fish, and Huangfu Jue naturally talked about his grandfather, his father, and the camping trips with his brothers and sisters...

"Let’s have a toast!" Gan Yuan took out the beers she’d bought, popped the tabs, and handed one to Huangfu Jue, "To... being able to taste your grilled fish."

"Mommy, have you eaten Uncle Huangfu’s grilled fish before?" the little guy asked curiously.

"That... I’ll tell you another time," Gan Yuan handed him a bottle of juice, "Here, you join us for a toast."

The little guy took the cup, "Uncle Huangfu, cheers!"

"No!" Gan Yuan stopped his hand, "From now on, you’re not allowed to call him uncle."

Both the big and the little man were surprised and turned their faces toward her.

"Not uncle?" Gan Tang pursed his little lips, "Then what should I... call him?"

"Haven’t you always wanted a daddy?" Gan Yuan’s eyes drooped slightly, "Since you like Uncle Huangfu so much, how about... we let him be your... godfather, would that be okay?"

Godfather?

Huangfu Jue’s eyebrows lifted slightly, then his lips curled into a smile—he was sure she was trying to let Gan Tang slowly accept him, and because she was afraid he might not be able to accept it all at once, that’s why she had said it that way.

"Xiaotang." His gaze warmly settled on the little guy’s face, "Would you like Uncle to be your dad?"

"I... I..."

The little guy was at a loss for words, everything had happened so suddenly, suddenly being asked to change how he addressed someone was a bit difficult for him too.

"If you don’t want to..."

"I want to," the little guy hurriedly said, "But... I... can’t say it."

Even though those two words, ’Dad,’ he had thought countless times about calling out in his heart, right now, they seemed to be stuck in his throat.

"Don’t worry!" Huangfu Jue saw his difficulty and, smiling, ruffled his hair, "How about... we start with godfather?"

At least, it was one step closer than uncle.

Good morning
