Su Guangzong clearly recognized Ning Xue's voice, but he pretended not to hear it and continued playing his game console, except that his movement of inserting the coin was slightly trembling.

Ning Xue saw this and called out again, "Guang Zong!"

Su Guangzong couldn't pretend he didn't hear it anymore. He turned around slowly, looking impatient, "Why did you come to Shanghai?"

Ning Xue never expected that the first thing her own son asked when he saw her was why she came to Shanghai. He didn't care at all about how she got here and how much the family worried about him.

Even the eldest child, when she first arrived, would ask her if she wanted to have a meal, drink some water, or take a rest.

When it came to Su Guangzong, however...

Ning Xue suppressed the bitterness that was about to surge to the tip of her tongue and forced a smile on her face, "Guangzong, stop playing around and come back with me."

Su Guangzong turned a deaf ear to it and continued to sit in front of the game console, looking obsessed.

Ning Xue got angry when she saw him like that. She went up to him and pulled his arm, yelling, "Stop playing around! Come back with me!"

Su Guangzong was hurt by her pulling, and he hissed and shook her off fiercely, looking at Ning Xue with eyes full of anger, as if he was looking at an enemy, "Why are you pulling me!"

Don't look at Su Guangzong like this. After all, he is a grown man with great strength. Ning Xue was thrown away by him in an instant and couldn't stand steadily. Fortunately, the eldest boy lent a hand, otherwise Ning Xue would have hit the game console and broken her head.

Ning Xue desperately struggled to break free from Da Wa's hand that was supporting her, and pointed at the colorful screen of the game console with trembling hands. She said in a sharp voice, "It is this thing that has harmed you, my well-behaved and obedient son. If it weren't for this, you would still be studying hard in college and be a student at a prestigious university with a bright future."

The implication of Ning Xue's words stunned Da Wa and Da Hu. Does this mean that Su Guangzong was expelled from school?

When Ning Xue told them about this, she omitted this part and only mentioned that Li Gou came to collect the debt. This also made Da Wa and Da Hu mistakenly believe that Su Guangzong was just truant and wanted to keep it a secret for the day.

After saying that, Ning Xue looked around, picked up a wooden stool with four corners wrapped with iron, and smashed it hard on the game console.

Fortunately, Da Hu noticed that her movements were wrong and quickly stopped her.

Game consoles are not cheap. If I smash this, I will have to pay a lot of money and offend my boss.

How many good people are there who can open a game hall these days?

Even if he is a good person, he is a good person with skills.

Ning Xue has offended others, so she will have to bear the consequences.

The owner of the game hall had been observing Ning Xue for a long time. After all, she was acting weird as soon as she came in. However, because Da Wa and Da Hu were following her, the owner didn't come forward to ask more questions. He just paid more attention to Ning Xue.

Seeing Ning Xue picking up a stool to smash the game console, he could no longer sit still. "Hey, auntie, what are you doing? You broke my game console. Can you afford to pay for it?"

"You called me? What, aunt?!" Ning Xue was so angry that her nose almost got crooked.

The boss of this game hall is fat, has big ears, a big gold chain around his neck, and a loud voice. He looks to be at least 40 years old. He is at least the same age as her, but he actually calls her "Auntie"?

We can't blame the owner of the game hall entirely. Ning Xue works very hard and neglects to take care of herself. Her skin is rough, dark yellow, and has wrinkles if you look closely. Calling her an aunt is not an exaggeration.

But Ning Xue just couldn't accept it, especially since Su Guangzong was so addicted to arcade games. In her heart, she had already labeled all those who opened arcades as bad guys. She angrily said, "You bunch of scumbags, if it were you who opened this arcade, would my son be so addicted?"

Ning Xue was angry, but the owner of the game hall was not angry. He leaned against the wall, squinted his eyes, and said lazily, "Hey, auntie, you are really good at passing the buck. Why do you blame us?"

He pointed at Da Wa and Da Hu, "Look at the two guys who came in with you, why aren't they addicted to the game console? Your son has a lack of self-control, what does it have to do with us? Besides, our game consoles are fun, what's the matter, are you jealous?"

If you ask the owner of the game hall how he can tell whether Da Wa and Da Hu are gamers, it's because people who frequent the game hall usually have yellow complexions and look listless. Also, because they often face the screen, their eyesight is not very good and their eyelids are often half droopy.

Da Wa and Da Hu have strong bodies, energetic faces, bright eyes, and look like the kind of athletic guys, certainly not the kind who are addicted to video games.

Ning Xue classified the game hall owner as a bad guy, so how could she listen to what he said?

The root of pressure is to let it go in one ear and out the other.

Ning Xue yelled, "I'm jealous? I'm jealous of you, you bastard!"

She looked around in a daze, and when she couldn't find the iron-covered chair she had just seen, she rushed over and hit the game console with her hands, trying to destroy the screen.

But the screen of a game console cannot be damaged by hitting it with bare hands. Ning Xue hit it a few times and found that there was not even a scratch on it.

So he changed his strategy and went forward to pull the guests who were playing the game consoles around him, trying to drive them away, while shouting, "Stop playing. Playing game consoles is harmful. Look at what my son has become. He is a good student at a prestigious university, but he didn't go to class and just played game consoles. As a result, he was expelled from school and owed more than 3,000 yuan for playing game consoles."

Ning Xue swore that she really meant what she said, because there were many young men in this game hall who were about the same age as Su Guangzong, or even younger than him, and she didn't want them to be as addicted as her son, to the point of being completely obsessed.

Therefore, I warn you.

But most of the people who came to the game hall to play video games must really like games. No one listened to Ning Xue's words, except for exposing her own shame. They just thought that a crazy woman came into the game hall and thought that she disturbed their game.

Fen Fen frowned and said, "Auntie, where are you from?" "Hurry up and don't disturb us from playing games." "That's right, go wherever it's cool."

Ning Xue didn't expect that these people would not appreciate her kindness. She became even angrier and pointed at them and said, "You bunch of bastards, get out of here, get out of here!"

She? After such a disturbance, how can I continue to play?

Putting the unspent game coins in her pocket, she said, "You're a woman, I won't argue with you. Can't I just leave?"

I wanted to buy more coins but gave up. "That's right. There's more than one arcade in the whole city of Shanghai. Can't I go somewhere else?"

Seeing the guests leaving the game room one after another, the boss immediately became anxious and hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, don't leave."

But in the blink of an eye, the guests left one after another.

Su Guangzong was the only one left in the entire game hall, playing the arcade game intently, unmoved by anything, as if even the falling sky could not stop him from finishing the game.

The boss looked at Ning Xue, fuming with anger, "Where on earth did you come from, you crazy woman? Do you still want to let people do business? Do you believe me? I'll call the police to arrest you."

Ning Xue rolled her eyes and said, "Go ahead and report it. I'm just reporting you to the police station for running a game hall here and enticing minors to play games."

The boss was stunned, pointing at Ning Xue and saying, "We are a small business, don't mess with us." He then said, "Take your son away quickly." He muttered, "What kind of people are these?"

Ning Xue was satisfied, snorted, and turned to Su Guangzong with a different expression. She was no longer the crazy woman she was just now, but smiled and coaxed carefully, "Guangzong, come home with mom. What's the fun in playing games?"

During the three days on the train, she also figured it out. If she was expelled, then she was expelled. It was no big deal. She thought that if Guangzong was able to get into Fudan University the first time, he should be able to get in the second time.

If I repeat one more year, the university I get into might be better than Fudan.

Thinking of this, the smile on Ning Xue's face became even more intense, "Guangzong, just follow me back."

Seeing her look, Su Guangzong frowned and pretended not to hear her.

This mother and son pair is also strange. In the past, Su Guangzong was soft and Ning Xue was tough. Now Su Guangzong has become tough and Ning Xue has become soft.

Ning Xue saw that Su Guangzong was not obedient, so she gritted her teeth, stepped forward and pulled his arm, "Come with me!"

Su Guangzong was hurt by her pulling, and he threw his hand away and shouted, "What are you talking about? I don't want to see you, get out of here!"

He looked at Ning Xue with red eyes, not as if he was looking at his mother, but rather as if he was looking at an enemy.

And Su Guangzong indeed regarded Ning Xue as an enemy.

If it wasn't Ning Xue, how could he have fallen to this point? Even though he is still playing the video game console, he has a vague feeling in his heart that what he is doing is abnormal and wrong, and no one else would play like him.

Su Guangzong glared at Ning Xue and pointed at her. "It's been like this since we were little. Have you ever heard my and my brother's opinions? We always do whatever you say, even when it comes to applying for a university or a major. I said I wanted to go to Agricultural University, but you insisted that I apply to Fudan University's medical department. I said I didn't want to study medicine. I get sick when I see those bloody animal carcasses."

When it came to the word "disgusting", Su Guangzong let out a dry gasp out of habit.

Ning Xue didn't expect Su Guangzong to explode so suddenly. She was frightened and took two steps back. She sat down on the ground, staring at him blankly and muttered, "Guang, Guangzong..."

Da Wa glanced at Su Guangzong's face and showed a trace of pity. He had never thought that Su Guangzong would live such a life.

Ning Xue calmed down for a moment, "Well, then you can tell me, if you don't want to apply to Fudan University, don't want to apply to medicine, just tell me, we can apply to other schools, you don't have to avoid classes and play video games."

Su Guangzong snorted coldly, "Tell you? What's the point of telling you? You have only told us to stand out from the beginning. Even if we don't go to Fudan University, we will apply for a major in a famous university that we don't like at all. What? The lives of us two brothers are tools for you to take revenge on your cousin? It's ridiculous."

Ning Xue was speechless, "Don't talk about this, Guangzong, come back with me."

Su Guangzong rolled his eyes to the sky, "It's like this again, every time dad tells you something you don't want to hear, he is right, you will change the subject, anyway, you just don't want to give a direct answer, don't want to admit that you are wrong." He snorted, "I don't want to pay attention to you, I have something to do later."

He had to finish the game quickly because he had to do odd jobs in the evening.

Now that he has no money, he has to work to earn money so that he can play games.

If Big Brother knew about this, he would probably praise him for being a man of integrity.

After all, Su Guangzong used to be a man who did not have to work and had to live a simple life.

Now, he can actually work part-time just for a game. So, playing video games is not all bad.

Ning Xue was completely mad, "You have something to do, what do you have to do? Is there anything more important than me? This? Mom?"

Having said that, he walked forward and smashed the game console.

How could Su Guangzong let her succeed? He went up and used his body to protect the game machine tightly, "You dare to smash it, you dare to smash me? I will beat you to death!"

"Beat me to death?" Ning Xue stared at him blankly, gritting her teeth and said, "Okay, today I want to see how you beat me to death."

The game machine owner was no longer angry. He had someone blocking him, so no one could break his game machine. He even had the mood to grab a handful of sunflower seeds and eat them while watching the fun. "Hey, hey, don't hit someone in the face. We are mother and son. Just talk it out nicely."

It's not easy to talk while standing. Ning Xue became even angrier after being provoked by him. She stopped smashing the game console and stepped forward to give Su Guangzong a slap in the face.

Su Guangzong was also stunned. From childhood to adulthood, Ning Xue and Su Junyan had never touched him, "You, you hit me?"

Ning Xue rolled up her sleeves, put her hands on her hips and said, "I? I hit you, so what?"

She now understood that she could not just use a soft policy towards Su Guangzong. She had to give him two slaps in the face to wake him up.

She used to think that it was wrong and uncivilized for Shen Lie to beat children. She herself had educated her children very well and never hit them. But now he actually started beating them. It was really funny.

Su Guangzong covered his face and stopped talking. The pair of eyes revealed between his long eyebrows were staring at Ning Xue with hatred in them.

Da Wa was really confused. If Ning Xue had come to find him, he would have been so smart that he could have hidden away in advance. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to see such an embarrassing scene.

Su Guangzong calmed down and sat back in front of the game console. "Go away. I won't go back with you. I still want to play games."

Ning Xue didn't continue talking about her old tricks, and instead looked at Da Wa with pleading eyes. She knew that Da Wa always had a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

Da Wa scratched his head. He also wanted to persuade Su Guangzong to go back so that Ning Xue could go back and avoid her causing trouble for him and Da Hu every day. If he drove them both away, he and Da Hu could go about their business and take exams.

He rolled his eyes and said, "Su Guangzong, just go back with your aunt."

Su Guangzong didn't even blink.

Big Boy continued, "Think about it, if you want to play video games, why do you have to stay in Shanghai? Don't you know that there are several game halls in Hailang Island now, not to mention Jiang City? I guarantee that you can go to a different game hall every day."

Su Guangzong twitched his eyelids, and seemed to be somewhat moved.

Da Wa breathed a sigh of relief, because games were Su Guangzong's weak spot.

Just as he was about to continue to persuade him, the owner of the game hall became unhappy. After all, Su Guangzong was his big customer, and he spent more than half of his time in the game hall every day, and all the money he earned was invested in the game hall. He immediately said, "Can the games in your remote place be more complete and more fun than those in our game hall? Boy, don't listen to him, just stay here with us."

It’s no wonder that the game halls in Hailang Island and Jiang City are definitely not as big as the ones in Shanghai City.

Da Wa changed his way of persuading, "Boss, can you deliver meals to him while he's playing games and serve him well? You can't." He turned to Su Guangzong and said, "If you go back to Hailang Island, your aunt will cook for you every day, and you can play games after you're full. She will also help you wash clothes, and your family will pay for you to play games. Isn't it better than staying here?"

This was of course a stopgap measure to appease Su Guangzong. First, they would trick Su Guangzong back to Hailang Island. Once he was on the island, there would be people to take care of him.

Su Guangzong didn't know Da Wa's little tricks, but when he heard them, he was moved.

He could smell the rotten odor on his body, and his stomach was rumbling with hunger.

More at home? Good, at home he has his mother to take care of him and his family gives him money to spend, so he can live the life just like what Da Wa said.

He stood up silently and glanced at Ningxue, "Why are you still standing there? Let's go."

Ning Xue was immediately satisfied, "Son, I will help you pack your luggage."

Luggage? Su Guangzong was delighted. He didn't have any luggage to pack.

He sold all of his games, including the watch and pen that Su Junyan bought for him and Su Yaozu when they first started school.

After leaving the game hall, Su Guangzong walked in front.

Big Boy pulled Ning Xue behind him and muttered, "After Su Guangzong returns to Hailang Island with you, you must keep him away from the game console. He will get addicted to this thing. No matter how he makes trouble, you must not let him touch it again. But you can't control him blindly. The more you control him, the stronger his rebellious psychology will be..."

What Da Wa meant was that going back was just the beginning, and the real test was yet to come.

Ning Xuehun nodded indifferently, and it was unclear whether she heard it or not.

What she was thinking was: as long as she goes back, this matter will be over. She planned to lock Su Guangzong in the room as soon as she got back, so that he would definitely not be able to touch the game console. As long as he was not allowed to touch the game console, he would not be addicted. Instead of giving him the game console, but only high school textbooks, she would force him to study hard in the room, and it would not be a problem for him to get into a good university next year.

And what Su Guangzong was thinking was: It would be good to go back, because there would be game consoles to play with and people to serve him, and he wouldn't have to worry about having no money, it would be so great.

The mother and son took the train back to Hailang Island, each with their own thoughts, and nothing happened along the way.
