Ruan Shaokun couldn't understand how Zheng Xuyang had managed to raise Zheng Xujie to be so adorable under such difficult circumstances.

Zheng Xuyang also expressed his helplessness regarding this. Back when he was fleeing with his younger brother, during the most difficult times, the two climbed over trains, slept in reed beds, and traversed the mountains for two days and two nights. Several times, they almost died. He never expected that after surviving such difficult days, Zheng Xujie would still retain the innocence of his childhood.

However, he did not try to change it, because Zheng Xuyang felt that this was also Zheng Xujie's most valuable quality.

The four of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the cafeteria. Originally, Ruan Shaokun had planned to ask the logistics department for help to prepare a separate table, and he would pay for it himself. However, seeing that they really didn't mind, he didn't bother with that.

Seafood is plentiful at the seaside, but Zheng Xujie really liked it. When he was getting his food, he ordered two portions of seafood. When the chef saw him doing this, and that the Ruan brothers were with him, he figured that Zheng Xujie must be visiting relatives, so he gave him extra food.

So much so that when the four of them sat down at the table, Ruan Shaoqin looked at the two portions of seafood piled high in front of him and began to question his life choices. "What, do the logistics department people have a problem with me? It's the same seafood, why do you have so much and I have so little?" As he spoke, he glanced at the barely visible fish and shrimp in his own lunchbox.

Faced with Ruan Shaoqin's questioning, Ruan Shaokun only gave him a look. "Why? Don't you know why?" Thinking back to the first day he came to the island, he wasn't used to it and was seasick, so he vomited after only one bite of seafood. The logistics department remembered this incident and always gave him a little bit of seafood whenever he bought it.

Later, he learned about it from other comrades and went to the logistics department to explain the situation. However, they wouldn't accept it and insisted that he didn't like seafood. Even though several years had passed, they couldn't let it go. Gradually, Ruan Shaoqin stopped explaining himself.

He just didn't expect that the logistics department's attitude towards Zheng Xujie today would directly provoke him.

"Brother Shaoqin, don't be angry. I have plenty here. Let's eat together." As she spoke, she shared some of the seafood in her bowl with Ruan Shaoqin.

"No, no need. You rarely come here, so eat as much as you like." Actually, Ruan Shaoqin wasn't really angry. He had just said that unconsciously. Now, seeing Zheng Xujie sharing his food with him, he felt a little embarrassed and realized he had been being unreasonable.

"Xiao Jie, don't mind him. He's at sea every day and has eaten countless seafood. He's just talking big. You eat your own food." After saying that, Ruan Shaokun decided not to interfere and directly put some more seafood into Zheng Xujie's bowl, while giving Ruan Shaoqin a warning look.

Helpless, suppressed by his brother's bloodline, Ruan Shaoqin could only bury his head in his food and say no more.

Zheng Xujie glanced around at them, making sure they were really tired of eating, before he started eating his own food.

Zheng Xuyang was already used to this kind of situation. He was now truly convinced that his younger brother had a magical power that made everyone around him like him.

After dinner, back in the dormitory, Zheng Xuyang took out the things Ruan Ruan had prepared for them. Each item was in duplicate, one for Ruan Shaoqin and one for Ruan Shaokun. The difference was that Ruan Shaokun also received a letter from Huo Haocheng.

While Ruan Shaokun was reading the letter, Ruan Shaoqin opened the dried fruit that Ruan Ruan had brought him and started eating with Zheng Xujie. As for Zheng Xuyang, the two started chatting after Ruan Shaokun finished reading the letter.

The content of their conversation was similar to what Huo Haocheng had mentioned before, except that the two discussed more details.

By the time they finished talking, it was already past 4 o'clock. Considering that they had a tough battle to fight early the next morning, we didn't keep them. We took them to the dock and watched them board the ship before returning home.

The two brothers were exhausted after a long day. When they returned to the guesthouse, they washed up quickly and went straight to bed without even having dinner.

The next morning, after breakfast, Zheng Xuyang took his younger brother to the square. Today was the day the Zheng family would be executed. According to what they had said yesterday, they were going to question their second uncle in front of everyone about why he had killed their parents.

When they arrived, the newspaper reporters were already there, and Mayor Su and Director Zhang were on their way.

At 8 a.m., the Zheng family was brought to the square. Second Uncle Zheng stood in the middle. When he looked up, he saw Zheng Xuyang and Zheng Xujie standing in front of him.

"It's you two! After all these years, I never thought you were still alive." Master Zheng said through gritted teeth as he looked at the two brothers who suddenly appeared in front of him. He immediately wanted to rush up and kill them, but the police officers standing behind him saw his movement and immediately pinned him to the ground.

Seeing this, Zheng Xuyang glanced at Director Zhang beside him, and only after seeing him nod did he walk towards his second uncle alone.

"I came here today to ask you why you killed my parents. They were so good to you, why did you kill them?" Even though he had imagined this scenario before, Zheng Xuyang still broke down when it actually happened.

Seeing him like this, Zheng Xujie immediately ran to his side without hesitation, "Brother..."

"Why are you asking me why now? I've been working like a slave for the Zheng family for so many years, and that old bastard left me nothing after he passed away. Just because I'm not his biological son, he gave me some money and a house like he was dealing with a beggar. Everything else was given to his son. But why? If he didn't want to acknowledge me as his son, why did he pretend to be a good person and take me home?"
