Ran Yongrui stood up from his seat and stood in front of Wan Qiu.
He also noticed it when he met Chu Yigui's former parents and relatives.
Compared to other people, the one Chu Yigui cares about most is this child who is said to be the same age as him.
"This child deliberately left your family. You should understand that he can't become a real family member in your family."
Ran Yongrui's voice was low, cold and sarcastic.
"Even if you have been together for so many years, it will still end like this.
Then you should understand how important blood relationship is to a person.
Only when you are with someone who is truly related by blood, do you have the right to act without worries and unbridled.
While this child is in your home, he is just a guest."
Ran Yongrui said a lot in one breath, just like his job as a teacher, he is good at preaching.
Wan Qiu understood and roughly understood what Ran Yongrui wanted to say.
"Don't you want him to have a family that he can truly call his own?"
Ran Yongrui's words almost deliberately exposed Wan Qiu's uneasiness and anxiety.
"I hope so." Wan Qiu couldn't refute the question.
A good family is a happy one, and I hope Chu Yigui has one too.
Chu Yigui frowned slightly, stood up, and hesitated to reach Wan Qiu's side.
Ran Yongrui's expression improved a little because of Wan Qiu's admission.
He softened his voice and said, "I will be good to the child. I promise. I hope you can help me persuade him."
Wan Qiu lowered his eyes but shook his head.
Chu Yigui stopped moving and didn't say anything.
On the contrary, Zhou Peiyu couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed Wan Qiu's arm: "Are you going to defect? He is a bad person. Don't corrupt Chu Yigui!"
Wan Qiu looked at Zhou Peiyu, but his expression was not as conflicted as Zhou Peiyu had imagined.
"I hope so, but brother...what Yigui thinks is important."
Wan Qiu lowered his head and didn't look at the face, emotions or expressions of anyone around him.
"As long as Yigui wants to do something, I will support him."
Wan Qiu's words surprised Zhou Peiyu.
For some reason, she felt moved when she heard Wan Qiu say these words.
It’s as if I saw the weeds growing on the edge of the cliff, always swaying in the wind at a loss.
But it has deep roots, and is held on to by the struggling person who has fallen off the cliff. It uses its own strength to hold on to the cliff to support the falling person.
“I have already left the Chu family and am a very free person, so Mr. Ran, even if you want me to go back, it’s meaningless to ask anyone in the Chu family.”
Chu Yigui stood in front of Wan Qiu and looked up at Ran Yongrui.
Ran Yongrui realized belatedly that Chu Yigui intended to leave the Chu family, and perhaps he also wanted to oppose himself and not bring trouble to the Chu family.
Ran Yongrui's expression was gloomy: "I don't know why you hate me."
"You don't have to think too much, Mr. Ran. I don't hate you, but I've never liked you. Everything I did was a decision I had made long ago. You were just something I didn't expect."
From beginning to end, Chu Yigui never really took Ran Yongrui's affairs to heart.
From beginning to end, he was just indifferent and polite.
Ran Yongrui stared at Chu Yigui.
He was so smart that he had no confusion about his choice and did not make any attempts.
He knew clearly the direction he had chosen.
Ran Yongrui took a deep breath and asked, "Don't you have any expectations for your family?"
"Yes." Chu Yigui smiled but did not deny it.
Ran Yongrui did not relax because of Chu Yigui's admission. He sensed that there was something else behind Chu Yigui's words.
"It's just that the family I want is not what you can give me."
Chu Yigui turned his gaze to Fei Zhuojun, who had been maintaining absolute silence on the side.
That's not being on the sidelines, that's being powerless.
"Everyone yearns for happiness, but what you think of as a happy family is sacrificing your wife. If you love your family, you should also love your wife."
Ran Yongrui's expression was gloomy, but his eyes shifted to Fei Zhuojun.
"Or do you think that blood ties are more important than your wife?"
Ran Yongrui's expression changed.
Fei Zhuojun was so shocked that his whole body tensed up.
Under Ran Yongrui's gaze, I couldn't utter a word.
Chu Yigui rarely says such words.
Being too aggressive can easily attract hatred.
It's just that sometimes he wants to try it.
Chu Yigui turned around with a smile and held Wan Qiu's hand: "I'm sorry, young master, I kept you waiting for so long."
Chu Yigui received Wan Qiu's confused look and chuckled.
"I will come to you again, but today is not the right time." Ran Yongrui obviously did not want to give up. "I will discuss it with my wife again. If she is willing, I hope you will consider it again."
"I can't stop you from coming to me, but I'm leaving today."
Chu Yigui had no dislike, hatred, or expectations towards Ran Yongrui.
It is because I have nothing that I can be so calm.
Zhou Peiyu followed Wan Qiu blankly and went out together.
Then she couldn't help but look back at the man and his wife. The man was looking at his wife, and his wife was looking at the table.
The man sat back down next to his wife, but she lowered her head and looked away.
"Wow——" Zhou Peiyu exclaimed softly, "So handsome."
"Thank you." Chu Yigui said.
Zhou Peiyu choked up and realized that he had actually spoken out loud, and he blushed a little.
Wan Qiu raised his head and looked at Chu Yigui.
Zhou Peiyu pretended to cough: "You really don't need us to help you check?"
"No, thank you very much for standing up and speaking for me. It was very difficult to interrupt that kind of atmosphere at that time." Chu Yigui said with a smile.
Zhou Peiyu felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
Was it her illusion? Did she feel that Chu Yigui seemed gentler than before?
"Will he bother you again in the future?" Zhou Peiyu asked.
"Probably." Chu Yigui said.
"Is there any way to stop him from bothering me? It's annoying to have him come here all the time, right?" Zhou Peiyu shrugged.
"It doesn't matter to me. It's not hard to just stop him from looking for me."
Zhou Peiyu's eyes widened and he asked curiously, "Do you have a solution?"
"Mr. Ran is a university professor. In a place like a school, the reputation of teachers is very important. If the matter is really made public to the school, it will affect his future." Chu Yigui said.
Zhou Peiyu took a deep breath and said, "How dare he be so open and aboveboard?"
"He must be fearless. In his mind, there is no option that I would refuse." Chu Yigui couldn't help but murmur, "He is a person who believes in blood ties."
"His wife is really pitiful. She has to accept such a scumbag voluntarily..."
Zhou Peiyu paused and glanced at Chu Yigui nervously.
But Chu Yigui didn't seem to care.
"They should be a community of interests. His wife is also a university teacher. Divorce will be very embarrassing for both parties. In addition, she is unable to get pregnant. Considering all factors, this choice is not surprising."
After listening to all this confusing news, Zhou Peiyu suddenly felt that what Ran Yongrui had just said to her was not wrong.
She really didn't know the whole story. If she really said something she shouldn't have said for no reason, it would be slander.
but……
Chu Yigui saw it very clearly.
"Won't Yigui be unhappy?" Wan Qiu suddenly asked.
"What?" Chu Yigui tilted his head.
"Yigui's parents have so many...tricks in their hearts."
Chu Yigui was amused by Wan Qiu's adjective and said seriously: "It is normal for everyone to think a little more about themselves."
"What about Yigui..." Wan Qiu lowered his head and asked hesitantly, "Aren't you disappointed? Your original family was like that."
Chu Yigui stopped and looked down at Wan Qiu.
In such a chaotic situation, everyone would be more interested in things like Zhou Peiyu.
But what Wan Qiu really remembered was only his thoughts.
"The meaning of family is very rich, and I will slowly find the family I want."
Chu Yigui held Wan Qiu's hand, holding it loosely but not breaking it.
Wan Qiu raised his head, and for some reason he remembered the words that Chu Yigui had often said to him.
Slowly, little by little...
Although Chu Yigui’s affairs no longer needed attention for the time being, after all, the three of them were traveling together, and at Zhou Peiyu’s suggestion, they decided to find a place to go play.
Butler Bai drove them to the amusement park.
Chu Yigui smiled and said, "What can I do? I haven't received my salary yet."
Since he was no longer a member of the Chu family, he had no reason to receive pocket money from Chu Jianshu anymore.
But since he has signed a contract with Yang Xiaoyu, he will get a salary.
Chu Yigui's abilities are obvious to everyone, so they feel more at ease leaving Wan Qiu to Chu Yigui, and they offer him a very high salary.
Wan Qiu blinked and picked up his phone: "I have a lot of money."
"Oh, yes, now Wan Qiu is also good at mobile payment, hahaha." Zhou Peiyu directly pulled Wan Qiu to scan the code and enter the amusement park.
Chu Yigui did not refuse and said, "Then let me take advantage of the young master."
Wan Qiu was once again very sensitive to the title of 'young master'.
"Why do you call Wan Qiu "Young Master"? " Zhou Peiyu also noticed the change in address.
"I signed a contract with the Chu family to sell myself." Chu Yigui said deliberately, as if jokingly, "Wan Qiu will be my employer from now on."
Zhou Peiyu was confused.
Although Wan Qiu was not used to the strange title of "young master", Chu Yigui would only call him that in some special circumstances.
And actually... Chu Yigui seemed somewhat happy.
If it wasn't a bad thing, Wan Qiu would have agreed.
Butler Bai followed behind the three young men and couldn't help but smile.
Wan Qiu was a little surprised when he found out that Zhou Peiyu and Chu Yigui went to the same high school.
But then I was very happy.
Chu Yigui and Zhou Peiyu are friends who know each other, and they should be very happy to be in the same high school.
It would be nice if he were here too.
Zhou Peiyu said that his grades were not actually very good, but because he was a gifted student, his grades were just barely above average.
For the first time, Wan Qiu discovered that he was actually a gifted student.
"Ballroom dancing is a form of sports dance!" Zhou Peiyu is very proud.
It was the first time that Wan Qiu heard about the existence of students with special talents.
Although his grades were average, Jiang Chengfeng said that it would be difficult for him to get into the high school that Chu Yigui attended with his grades.
But if he were to become a gifted student like Zhou Peiyu, and work harder, he might even go to the same high school as Chu Yigui.
Wan Qiu suddenly realized that if you think about it carefully, many things are not impossible.
Neither the students who were going from primary school to junior high school nor the students who were going from junior high school to high school had any summer homework. Wan Qiu spent most of his time studying junior high school courses with Chu Yigui.
Because it was Chu Yigui who taught him, Wan Qiu learned very quickly.
At the end of the summer vacation, Jiang Chengfeng said goodbye to Wan Qiu.
He is no longer suitable to be Wan Qiu's tutor.
But Jiang Chengfeng said that they would be friends in the future and she could call him if she needed anything.
Wan Qiu nodded.
Wan Qiu did not feel very sad about Jiang Chengfeng's departure, because it was not a separation, but a change of identity.
Just like Chu Yigui, it’s not separation.
When school started again, Wan Qiu saw Chu Yigui's high school uniform.
Black.
Very handsome.
Wan Qiu took a photo and sent it to Zhou Peiyu, who screamed in surprise and said she wanted to see the real person as soon as possible.
Wan Qiu also thought it was very handsome.
Because high school starts earlier than junior high school, Wan Qiu went to the high school campus.
I saw a bustling crowd of students in school uniforms coming in and out.
High schools are different from junior high schools and elementary schools. Parents no longer need to be present to report. Wan Qiu followed Butler Bai and waited at the school gate.
Although Butler Bai suggested that they could leave immediately, Wan Qiu remembered that Chu Yigui said that he would not be reporting for long.
Wan Qiu leaned back in his car seat, looking at the school gate where no one was entering or leaving.
At the same time, Wan Qiu saw another vehicle parked not far away.
Wan Qiu remembered that car very clearly.
It belongs to Ran Yongrui.
Chu Yigui said that Ran Yongrui is a very persistent person.
Wan Qiu tilted his head and asked Butler Bai: "Does persistence mean never giving up when encountering something?"
"You can understand it that way." Butler Bai responded to Wan Qiu.
"If Yigui doesn't return to his biological father, will Mr. Ran always follow Yigui?"
Mr. Ran? Butler Bai realized who it was.
"It's hard to imagine what other people are thinking," Butler Bai said.
"Then is Mr. Ran so persistent because he actually loves Yigui very much?" Wan Qiu asked.
Due to the nature of his job, Butler Bai would not take the initiative to guess what others were thinking, but his experience and age gave him some ideas.
"When people do something, they always start with the goal of doing good." Butler Bai said, "Maybe Mr. Ran thinks that Chu Yigui's return to his side is a good thing."
"Even if Yigui doesn't want to?" Wan Qiu asked hesitantly.
"Many parents find it difficult to hear their children's voices, and Mr. Ran may be one of them."
Good thing.
Wan Qiu couldn't tell whether it was a good thing for Chu Yi to return to Ran Yongrui.
All he could do was support Chu Yigui.
Wan Qiu did not get out of the car, and Ran Yongrui did not notice this side.
They waited for an hour, and the people who reported to school left one after another.
Wan Qiu saw Ran Yongrui come out of the car and wait by the roadside.
Wan Qiu saw Chu Yigui.
Ran Yongrui's expression when facing Chu Yigui was different from when he faced him.
Gentle, elegant, and always with a smile on his face when he speaks.
Chu Yigui's expression was very calm, and he responded indifferently.
Wan Qiu couldn't hear what the two people were saying.
He just sat in the car and watched.
When Ran Yongrui stretched out his hand and wanted to take Chu Yigui somewhere, Chu Yigui refused.
His appropriate smile and moderate sense of distance made him look out of tune with everything around him.
When Chu Yigui walked towards their car and closed the door, Wan Qiu glanced at Ran Yongrui in the distance.
His expression was not pretty.
It seemed that he didn't expect that there would be someone here to pick him up.
Butler Bai was not curious about Ran Yongrui's affairs, and just said, "Please fasten your seat belts."
Wan Qiu glanced at Chu Yigui several times, but didn't know what to ask.
But Chu Yigui didn't let Wan Qiu wait too long: "Because I'm basically at the villa, he can't find me, so he waits for me at the school gate."
Wan Qiu murmured, "He is very persistent."
"Yeah." Chu Yigui replied indifferently.
"If he is so persistent, is it because he really loves you?" Wan Qiu hesitated and asked the real person again.
Chu Yigui raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Wan Qiu.
The boy gradually revealed his outstanding appearance, and his pure-colored pupils were filled with worry about him.
"If it was in the past, I might not be able to judge and would tell you something else."
Wan Qiu found the key point: "Before?"
"Now I can say for sure, no, he doesn't love me."
"Why?" Wan Qiu asked blankly.
Chu Yigui smiled, his eyes resting on Wan Qiu's face.
"Because I know what it looks like to love someone."
Wan Qiu murmured, "Yigui is really amazing."
Chu Yigui didn't say anything, but inadvertently met the eyes of Butler Bai who happened to look at them in the rearview mirror.
There was a smile in Butler Bai's eyes, and Chu Yigui smiled back.
Wan Qiu changed into his junior high school uniform and took photos to show Zhou Peiyu.
Zhou Peiyu only said one sentence: There is no sense of incongruity.
Wan Qiu looked at the subtle words and couldn't tell whether Zhou Peiyu was praising him or something else.
Although Chu Yigui went to high school, he still lived with Wan Qiu, but he had to go to school earlier and finish school later.
It’s a pity that Chu Yigui and Zhou Peiyu were not assigned to the same class.
But Wan Qiu received a lot of news about Chu Yigui from Zhou Peiyu.
Zhou Peiyu: You definitely won’t believe it, but on the first day the girls in our class were already asking about Chu Yigui’s news!
Zhou Peiyu: With Chu Yigui’s looks, he is undoubtedly the most handsome boy on campus.
Zhou Peiyu: No. 1 in the grade, representative of freshmen, this is the epitome of all buffs.
Zhou Peiyu: He looks totally different when he stands with boys of the same grade!
Zhou Peiyu: I didn’t even dare tell my classmates that I knew Chu Yigui. I felt like the other girls would be jealous of me.
Wan Qiu looked eagerly at the long string of praises for Chu Yigui sent by Zhou Peiyu, and for some reason he felt a little sour.
He is old enough to be in the same grade as them, but now he can only listen to Zhou Peiyu's retelling.
Wan Qiu felt a little bit of jealousy.
Not feeling well.
Wanqiu school has started.
Wan Qiu was not lucky, he was not assigned to the same class as Fu Zhengyu.
Chu Jianshu was beside Wan Qiu when he received the class announcement.
"If you want to be with the friends you are familiar with now, I can help you adjust your class." Chu Jianshu said to Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I can make new friends, and Fu Zhengyu will come to play with me after class."
Chu Jianshu didn't say much about Wan Qiu's decision.
Wan Qiu will make his own decision.
But after all, it was a direct promotion, and there were many familiar classmates in the class.
But this was the first time that Wan Qiu was so far away from all his family members, and he still felt lost psychologically.
Fortunately, Fu Zhengyu and Wan Qiu have always had a good relationship, so Wan Qiu didn't feel too lonely at the beginning.
Wan Qiu has a new deskmate, who is also a girl, just like in elementary school.
This girl's personality seems a bit strange.
She has been watching Wan Qiu ever since they became desk mates.
Wan Qiu is very sensitive to other people's gazes and is always distracted when under the attention of girls.
The girl's name is Wang Yue, a very easy name to write. She even wrote it for him to see when she introduced herself.
"Your name is so strange, Chu Wanqiu." Wang Yue said while flipping through Wanqiu's books.
Wan Qiu didn't know how to answer.
Fortunately, Fu Zhengyu would come to play with Wan Qiu after every get out of class, and Wan Qiu unexpectedly became one of the students who would hang out in the corridor after class every day.
Wang Yue is a girl who likes to talk a lot, even in class.
When Wan Qiu was listening attentively, Wang Yue was whispering to him.
"You have really beautiful eyes, don't you?"
"Your back is so straight, have you practiced it?"
"Your skin is quite good, it reflects white in the sunlight."
Because Wang Yue always had a lot to say and Wan Qiu really wanted to go to class, he had to take time out from playing with Fu Zhengyu during breaks to talk to Wang Yue.
Wang Yue was obviously very happy.
"If you were taller, you could run for campus hunk! But you're short."
"You have a good relationship with Fu Zhengyu. Fu Zhengyu is a bit of a jerk, but you are quite serious in class."
Wan Qiu didn't know why Wang Yue had so much to say.
He likes to talk more than Zhou Peiyu.
Wang Yue not only talked to Wan Qiu, but also to the people sitting in front and behind him.
This is a very unique classmate that Wan Qiu has come into contact with.
However, Wang Yue was also called out by the teacher and made to stand in the corner as punishment because she always talked in class, but she didn't seem to care at all.
"Isn't being punished by standing a bad thing?" After Wang Yue was punished by standing for a whole class, Wan Qiu couldn't help but ask while lying on the table.
"It's not very good." Wang Yue nodded in approval.
"Then why do you have to talk in class?" Wan Qiu was a little confused.
"I want to say it." Wang Yue looked at Wan Qiu eagerly.
Wan Qiu was somewhat curious and puzzled about the fact that Wang Yue took everything for granted.
When Wan Qiu asked Chu Yigui, Chu Yigui said: "Everyone has their own habits."
"But it's not good to talk in class," Wan Qiu said.
"That's true, but no one says you have to do something in a rigid way," said Chu Yigui.
Wan Qiu was a little surprised: "Then can I also talk in class?"
Chu Yigui originally wanted to deny it, but for some reason, he felt that it would not be a bad idea for Wan Qiu to do something out of the ordinary occasionally.
"Okay... let's give it a try?" Chu Yigui hesitated, but in the end did not deny Wan Qiu.
For the first time, Wan Qiu felt that his concept of going to school was challenged.
It is actually allowed to gossip in class.
