After Running Away While Pregnant, I Had a Genius Little Darling

Genius cutie Zhou Xiaojuan grew up watching his dad's goofy videos, but didn't know he had another father until he was three, when his dad turned down an advertising deal with a company offering excellent terms.

Zhou Xiaojuan tapped around on his phone, then pointed at the company's CEO. "Daddy, why does this uncle look so much like me?"

Zhou Jianhuan's hand slipped, sending his instant noodles flying. Guilt written all over his face, he said, "...Kiddo, he's your other biological father."

Zhou Xiaojuan: ???

Zhou Xiaojuan asked earnestly, "Daddy, how did you manage to land such a high-quality man back then? Was he into the way you always splash soup on your clothes when eating noodles, or how you can do the splits every time you trip on flat ground?"

CEO Lu Renlai has only stumbled twice in his life.

The first time was three years ago, after a charity banquet, when a little rascal slept with him and ran off.

The second was three years later, when he spotted a fool on a livestream platform who had choked on water after drinking too fast. In the corner of the frame sat a kid who looked eighty percent like him.

Lu Renlai narrowed his eyes at the screen. "...Zhou. Jian. Huan?"

Without hesitation, Lu Renlai booked a flight.

In Zhou Xiaojuan's eyes, even though Daddy was known across the internet as "a landslide in the lifestyle category," it didn't change the fact that he was a fool who set the kitchen on fire while cooking and forgot his keys whenever he went out.

In Zhou Jianhuan's eyes, even though his son was a genius toddler with an off-the-charts IQ, he was still a tsundere who complained about him all day, then secretly tucked him in at night and depended on him an awful lot.

Zhou Xiaojuan and Zhou Jianhuan: This family can't function without me!

Then one day, Lu Renlai showed up at their door. "Zhou Jianhuan, care to explain?"

Zhou Jianhuan felt the sky come crashing down. Clutching the kid, he backed away again and again. "Th-this is something Meituan Select gave me after they went bankrupt!"

Zhou Xiaojuan held his forehead. "Daddy, I'm three years old, not three hours old."

Lu Renlai: ...

Whatever. Now he had to take care of both father and son.
