After the conversation a few days ago, the two of them parted ways unpleasantly.
Ma Aili thought this would be a long battle.
However, she didn't expect that after an unbearable silence, he would come back as if nothing had happened. What followed was a rare warm family life, because their home had not been so tidy for a long time.
Because she and he both knew clearly how important the next period of time was to their son. It was precisely because of their son's excellence that no unnecessary things could or would be allowed to affect his studies.
My son is the most important thing in everything.
It’s not because of responsibility as a parent, but because of love. There is no room for any mistakes when it comes to Zeng Mu.
This time, she didn't have to take the initiative to ask him like she did after the quarrel in the past, and she couldn't show her emotions in front of the children.
This time he was more cooperative and proactive than ever before.
There was no more communication between the two of them when they were alone. After all, they had already said enough. Only when there were three of them would they still find something to say. Although they knew in their hearts that it would be difficult to deceive people with such poor acting skills, at least it was enough to appear calm on the surface.
In the following days, they tacitly agreed not to mention what happened that day, and just looked forward to the day of their son's high school entrance examination.
This is the best reason and excuse.
You can come and keep the warmth and tranquility of this moment.

Time quickly arrived at the last day of the high school entrance examination.
"Huh, it's finally over." Qin Yichuan breathed a sigh of relief as he and Zeng Mu walked out of the school gate. "The holiday is coming, and I can finally have some fun." God knows how hard he has been working these days. He hasn't touched a computer in a long time, and now he finally doesn't have to work so hard to control his impulses.
"Are you so relieved?" Looking at the sad-looking students who occasionally passed by, Zeng Mu looked at the person next to him who had a relaxed look on his face.
"Of course. I know myself well, but I'm good at a few subjects. I'm definitely good at them. As for the others, I've tried my best, so I can't blame myself if I don't do well on the exam."
"That's right. After all, you are cramming at the last minute. If you want to perform exceptionally well, you must have this foundation." Zeng Mu thought about it and agreed.
"Hey, you look down on me like that. I wanted to treat you to a meal."
"I have something to do today and can't go." Zeng Mu's smile disappeared, as if he suddenly thought of something.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Zeng Mu's expression, Qin Yichuan became inexplicably serious and nervous.
"It's just family matters." Zeng Mu thought that today should be the day to reveal the answer, and tomorrow at the latest.
He noticed the atmosphere at home during this period and he sensitively felt the difference. He thought it was probably what he guessed.
"Oh, then I'll go home too." Qin Yichuan thought it would be boring to go alone, so he gave up the idea.
After arriving at the door, they said goodbye to Qin Yichuan and went back to their homes.
He hesitated at the door of his house, took a deep breath, and then opened the door.
After opening the door, I could see my parents sitting on either side of the living room.
It's really rare to have the whole family together at this time.
"You're back. Are you hungry? I've prepared the meal." Ma Aili spoke first, motioning Zeng Mu to sit down, then turned and went into the kitchen to serve the food.
Zeng Mu ate quietly, and although he didn't look away, he could always feel the gazes of the people around him and their hesitation to speak again and again.
He finished the tasteless meal and was about to get up when Ma Aili stopped him.
"Let me wash it. You must be tired too. Go and take a rest."
"No, I'm not tired. I'll wash it." Zeng Mu stood up resolutely. At this time, he finally began to look at his mother, and then at his father who had been sitting at the other end in silence. "If you have something to say, say it now."
After a period of silence, no one responded to his words.
"Then I'll go wash the dishes." He started to clean up the dishes, but this time he realized that he was the only one who had touched the food on the table. It seemed that there was nothing to wash, just his own bowl. So he took a few bowls into the kitchen and started washing them.
Just because he was distracted, he washed the dishes casually, turned off the faucet, and the house became quiet instantly.
"Whether it was your decision or not, I don't even have the right to know." He couldn't help but blurt out, protesting with confusion and anger. It was the first time he spoke to them with such emotion.
His mother, who was still sitting at the dinner table, looked at him in surprise, and his father extinguished the lit cigarette in his hand.

The holiday lasted about ten days.
"What happened at your home?" Qin Yichuan took Zeng Mu out for a walk that day. When they came back, they saw a car that looked like a moving company's car parked downstairs. Qin Yichuan looked at it curiously for several times.
As he walked up, Qin Yichuan began to realize that something was wrong and had a bad premonition.
"Are you moving?" Qin Yichuan asked Zeng Mu behind him, but there was no response. However, they had already reached their floor, and the answer appeared before their eyes. "Zeng Mu, you are amazing! You can't hold back on such a big thing. Do you still consider me your friend?"
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you." Zeng Mu said calmly as if he was saying an ordinary sentence.
"Can such a thing be forgotten?" Qin Yichuan felt that this answer was too absurd.
After the two of them finished talking, Qin Yichuan was the first to walk into the wide-open door of the Zeng family's house. He looked at the situation inside, then curiously walked into Zeng Mu's room, walked around, and came out. Finally, he realized something was wrong and hurried to the window. He saw several movers downstairs closing the car door, as if preparing to leave.
"That's not right. Why aren't these things moved? I saw the moving company's trucks had already left, and they were only moving those few things."
"This time it's not really a move." Zeng Mu thought he had already prepared himself mentally, but when he found out on the day, he still felt he couldn't handle it.
She said that this was a decision she made with all her heart, not because she didn't love him.
He said, legally you will be awarded to your mother, but you can come back to this family whenever you want, and your future life will be up to you.
"It's because they are divorced." Zeng Mu suppressed the emotions in his heart and continued.
After hearing this, Qin Yichuan was first surprised and then felt an indescribable complex emotion. He didn't know what to say, but it was not to the point of disbelief, because many things that happened before seemed like omens.
"Oh, I don't know what to say. You, you... Forget it, I'd better go home first." Qin Yichuan scratched his head and said this, then closed the door for Zeng Mu. There was nothing he could do. He had neither the right nor the ability to interfere in other people's family affairs.
