Gu Ye went home. Liu Jiu finished running the 3,000 meters and looked at San Qi and the others who were still struggling.
"Speed up, there are still five laps left. We can only go home for dinner after we finish."
"Second Brother Mu, you still have seven laps left. Don't slack off; set a good example for your younger brothers."
Gu Liujiu spoke with extreme seriousness, and Sanqi and the other two resignedly sped up. Mu Beifang wanted to cry but had no tears. He had a hundred reasons, but looking at Gu Liujiu's serious face, he couldn't bring himself to say them.
Mu Nanfang looked at his second brother, his face flushed red from holding back laughter. It was too funny. His second brother was as cunning as a sieve, but none of his tricks worked against the straightforward Liu Jiu.
He now felt he had nothing to worry about in the future. His mother and Mu Jiaojiao were no match for Liu Jiu; she didn't know any of those tricks and was used to going straight for the kill.
"Aren't you going to ask me if I passed the test?"
"What's the suspense? You're a very nice person. Although I'm not very good at interpersonal communication, I do have a good eye for people. Most importantly, my dad loves me and everything he does is for my own good."
As long as he's satisfied with your character, he'll be at ease. Even though he might jokingly say he'll teach you a lesson and even want to beat you up, he's ultimately indebted to you because of his affection for you.
Liu Jiu still understands her father; he's tough on the outside but soft on the inside, especially towards her siblings and her mother.
Liu Jiu has loving parents, so she's not afraid at all. Even if Mu Nanfang changes in the future, she still has a home to return to.
"Uncle Gu loves you very much. He can think far ahead for you. He has several contingency plans in mind, and the ultimate goal of each plan is to ensure that you are not harmed."
Mu Nanfang also realized that Uncle Gu wasn't someone who valued verbal promises; he believed that actions speak louder than words. Moreover, Liu Jiu was a very practical person who didn't like anything fancy.
"Of course, my parents love us very much. You should think it through. Being with me will be stressful, as my parents and Sanqi will be watching you closely."
“I’m not afraid. Similarly, they will love me because of my family, and I will have another pair of parents who love me.”
Mu Nanfang was optimistic; Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu weren't unreasonable people, and he was confident he would win their affection.
"You're so shameless, calling everyone 'Mom and Dad'?"
"It was bound to happen sooner or later!"
Mu Nanfang was very confident. He ruffled Liu Jiu's hair, saying that there were still others to wait for.
"Sis, we're done running. Let's go home and eat. Our stomachs are protesting."
Sanqi looked pale and tired. Running three kilometers in a thick cotton-padded coat and pants in the winter must have been incredibly tiring.
"Okay, let's go home for dinner."
Looking at Gu Xuanyi's utterly hopeless expression, Liu Jiu realized they hadn't been training enough. She should suggest to her father that they send the two of them to the army for training for a while.
Sanqi can't read minds, otherwise he would disown his own sister. No one would treat their younger brother like that.
"Second Brother Mu, you have two and a half laps left. Keep going! We're going back for dinner now. Let Mu Nanfang run the last two and a half laps with you."
Liu Jiu waved to Mu Beifang and led his two brothers home.
"Don't worry, Liu Jiu, I will definitely finish the race with my second brother."
Mu Nanfang tried his best to hide his laughter and ran towards his second brother.
"Mu Nanfang, I regret it, really. Why did I have to come and join in the fun? Wasn't my bed warm enough? And Gu Liujiu, she's such a weirdo. Why does she like training so much? Not only does she train her own brothers, but she doesn't even spare yours."
"It's been so long since I ran 3000 meters. I feel like I'll be completely exhausted when I get home today. Seriously, I'm so fucking tired."
Mu Beifang gritted his teeth and, accompanied by Mu Laosan, ran the three-kilometer race. Finally, he was limped home by Mu Nanfang.
"Northern, what happened to you? Did you fall? Are you stuck somewhere?"
When Mu's mother saw her second son, who had been fine when he went out in the morning, he was dragged back by Mu Nanfang. How could this be the opposite? Just now, Old Mu had been saying that Mu Nanfang might get a beating, and since Beifang had gone with him, it would be good to bring him back.
Commander Mu came over when he heard the noise. He was also quite puzzled as to why it was the North that was injured, not the South.
"What happened? How did you get hurt?"
"Ha ha……"
Mu Nanfang could no longer hold back and burst into laughter, tears welling up in his eyes.
"What are you laughing at? What's wrong with your second brother? Tell me!"
The other members of the Gu family were also drawn over by Mu Nanfang's laughter, wondering what was going on and why Mu Nanfang was so happy.
"My second brother wanted to see me make a fool of myself, but Uncle Gu just had a heart-to-heart talk with me and didn't get to see the joke. Liu Jiu took San Qi and Gu Xuanyi for a 3,000-meter run, and my second brother got dragged along too, which is why he ended up like this."
Ha ha……"
Mu Nanfang couldn't help but laugh when he thought of his son Liu Jiu's serious expression and his second brother's frustrated look.
"Second brother, he gave you a three-kilometer head start and you ran? Are you stupid?"
Mu Jiaojiao looked at her second brother in disbelief. It was hard to believe that her second brother, who always had a hundred reasons to refuse whatever she said, was now so obedient.
"Oh my, you guys don't know, when Gu Liujiu was talking about running 3,000 meters with such a serious face, the seriousness she showed really made you feel that you should exercise and run 3,000 meters."
Gu Beifang was also helpless. He had thought of countless reasons to refuse, but in the end, he still obediently ran three kilometers.
"Mom, Mom, Mom..."
"What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost?"
Mother Mu was startled by her daughter's series of exclamations.
"Mom, Gu Liujiu and Third Brother are dating. Will she make me run the 3000 meters too? I can't run it, I'll die, boohoo..."
