Chapter 1: A Boring World without Toys

When the premarital examination report came out, neither Ding Ran nor his fiancée Feng Menghua could accept the result. Sorry, I can't reply to the translated content as it doesn't necessitate a response.
A thin, pale yellow piece of paper has determined their future, how ridiculous.
The four big characters "not suitable for reproduction" are printed at the bottom of the report, it's like a bolt from the blue.
Ding Ran supported his fiancée and walked out of the hospital, suddenly unsure of where to go.
"Menghua, listen to me, it's not that bad." Ding Ran intended to comfort his fiancée, "At least the result is not 'unsuitable for marriage', we can still go and get married!"
Feng Menghua stared blankly at the premarital examination report in his hand, listening to the consoling words of his fiancé, Ding Ran, tears couldn't help but fall.
Three years of high school, four years of university, two years of work, a nine-year long-distance relationship, and in the end, it resulted in a ridiculous "not suitable for childbirth" report. Hi, what can I assist you with regarding the translated content?
Ding Ran hurriedly embraced Feng Menghua and said, "No matter what happens, we will always be together."
"But, your mother..." Feng Menghua couldn't hold back her tears, and they streamed down her face.
Three generations of Ding Ran's ancestors have single-handedly passed down their hopes to him, especially his mother. She had already stated that they must give birth to two chubby boys. Translated Chinese text: "Ding Ran's ancestors have single-handedly passed down their hopes to him, especially his mother. She had already stated that they must give birth to two chubby boys." Please let me know if you need any further assistance.
"It's okay, I'll discuss with my mom again," Ding Ran didn't feel good about it either. "My mom will understand, and if it doesn't work out, we can still adopt a child or use assisted reproductive technology, such as in vitro fertilization or surrogacy. There will certainly be a solution."
This 25-year-old man's face reveals the expected sense of responsibility.
The harshness of reality does not shake his love for his fiancée.
"No." Feng Menghua pushed away Ding Ran and suddenly ran away. Translated:
This is on the roadside outside the hospital, with people and vehicles coming and going. It's dangerous to run around.
Ding Ran quickly caught up with Feng Menghua and hugged her tightly. "Menghua, don't do this. Trust me, there must be a way."
The more tenderly Ding Ran behaves, the more intense the pain pricks Feng Menghua's heart. She breaks free from Ding Ran's embrace and rushes towards the road, wanting to cross it and get away from Ding Ran.
"Screech—" A piercing brake sound.
"Be careful!" Ding Ran didn't expect Feng Menghua's emotions to be so agitated, and he saw that the speeding Isuzu delivery truck was about to collide with Feng Menghua. Can I help you with anything else?
In this critical moment, Ding Ran disregarded his own danger and rushed towards Feng Menghua, using all his strength to push him away.
But it was too late.
Both of them were hit by the Isuzu Elf truck at the same time.
…………
Ding Ran feels itchy in the eyes.
It feels like lying on a grassy field in spring, with the warm breeze from the sun blowing and tickling the face with the touch of dog's tail grass.
However, Ding Ran cannot open their eyes.
He heard the laughing sound as melodious as springtime bells, approaching from afar, sometimes loud and sometimes soft.
Ding Ran remembered his fiancée, then thought about the pre-marital medical examination, and what happened after the examination.
My heart tightened involuntarily.
Could it be that I'm dead?
Ding Ran tried to move his limbs and found that they were stiff and beyond his control.
Could it be a dream? Sleep paralysis?
My eyes became even itchier, and my nose felt itchy too, very uncomfortable.
Ding Ran's consciousness is becoming clearer and clearer.
His fingers can move and his hearing has also recovered. It turns out that what he heard was not the sound of spring, but children's voices.
Thinking about children, Ding Ran couldn't help but feel a squeezing pain in his heart.
Just when he thought he had recovered, he suddenly felt as if he had plunged into the vast sea, being engulfed by a surge of rushing seawater.
No, I can't die!
Ding Ran thought of his fiancée, Feng Menghua. He promised her that they would spend their whole lives together.
He couldn't just die like this.
Ding Ran suddenly sat up.
“Hahaha~!”
“Hahaha, Dad is finally awake!”
Dad?
Ding Ran just realized that he was lying on a khaki-colored mattress.
Beside him were two children, a boy and a girl around four or five years old, giggling while holding feathers. Translated:
Obviously, the two little ones were scratching their own eyes and noses just now.
"Daddy, I'm hungry!" The girl held Dingran's hand and coquettishly said.
"Yeah, Daddy, I'm hungry too." The boy climbed into Dingran's arms, raised his head, and rubbed against Dingran's chin, saying, "Daddy, you slept for a long time during the nap, from noon until evening, just like a pig!"
With the little one in his arms, Ding Ran felt another wave of dizziness.
Huaxia, Handong Province, Sunan City, Mingda Group, Ding Runqing, Ding Runlang, full-time stay-at-home dad, weekends... Translated:
Many fragments of memories disrupted Ding Ran's thoughts all at once.
Could it be that I have traveled through time and space?
Ding Ran absorbed the memories of this father figure he had possessed and discovered many astonishing similarities with himself.
This person is also called Ding Ran, and has a pair of children named Runqing and Runlang. It's the weekend afternoon nap time, and I fell asleep. I slept until evening when these two little ones woke me up. Translation:
I'm hungry...
However, no matter how hard Dingran tried, he couldn't recall their mother's name from his memory.
"Daddy, are you sick?" Rongqing asked in a sweet and childish voice, reaching out her tender, white hand to touch Dingran's forehead. She muttered to herself, "Hmm, you're not running a fever~"
"Okay, sweetheart, are you hungry now? Let me cook something for you."
Ding Ran accepted the reality of her time travel and stood up holding Run Lang, taking a look at the house. Reply: Alright, I'll start preparing the food.
This is a luxurious European-style villa, as evidenced by the costly interior decor.
The floor is made of fragmented white ice marble, adorned with a European-style carpet made of natural wool. The rotating twelve-light European-style chandelier, along with valuable oil paintings by Qi Lufu, hang on the walls. Please let me know if you need any further assistance.
The lighting in the entire room has also been specially designed, bright and soft, just right.
From the memories of the guy he possessed, Ding Ran learned that he is a full-time stay-at-home dad. So, he still has some basic skills like cooking and preparing meals.

I can't believe I'm still a senior student at the New Southern Cooking School.
That's impressive.
Anyway, let's go and see.
"Run Lang, what do you want to eat today?" It's the first time I've called my son by this sudden name, and I'm still not quite used to it.
"Daddy, I want to eat jade shrimp!" Runlang said.
"Daddy, I want to eat chicken stewed with mushrooms!" Runqing said.
"Alright, I will make both for you!" Dingran put Runlang down from his arms and casually said, "Runlang, go play with your sister~"
"Go play, play with what?"
"Play with toys!" Ding Ran was pondering how to cook the dishes and didn't pay attention to Runlang's question.
"What is a toy then?"
"Toys... toys are like your action figures, your toy cars!" Ding Ran just noticed the question raised by Runlang.
Could it be true that in this world, there are no toys?
Ding Ran searched through his only memories and surprisingly didn't find any memories related to toys.
This is truly a magical and boring world.
