Ning Xue thought that Su Guangzong would become a better person after returning to the island and being with her, but she didn't expect that he would become even more powerful.

I get up in the morning and go to the game hall, come back on time for lunch, and then go to the game hall again after lunch, and don’t come back until late at night.

No matter how furious Ning Xue was or how earnestly Su Junyan tried to persuade him, he remained unmoved and only the game was in his eyes.

As for Ning Xue's plan to lock him up in the room as soon as he came back, it had completely failed.

After all, Su Guangzong is a big man. If they start fighting, even Su Guangzong is no match for him, let alone Ning Xue.

He can lock the door, but he can also tear it down. It would only take him a few minutes to jump out of the window on the second floor.

If Ning Xue had listened to Da Wa and been cruel enough to not cook for him and to discipline him strictly, then there might have been a glimmer of hope. But she couldn't bear to do that. She always thought that if she tried her best to move Su Guangzong, he would be obedient.

But Su Guangzong now? He has completely lost interest in learning.

But he was also smart and knew that if he pressed Ning Xue too hard, Ning Xue might really cut off his food supply when she got anxious.

So he discussed with Ning Xue that as long as he was allowed to play video games, he would learn.

So he continued to go out early and come back late every day. He would play video games when it was time to play video games, and when he came back at night, he would pretend to read two pages of a book, and that was enough to get by.

But Ning Xue really fell for it.

She felt that Su Guangzong had a solid foundation and that as long as he read more books, he would be able to get into a prestigious university next year.

Little do people know that nowadays, textbooks are changing with each passing day, and talented people emerge in every generation...

The news that Su Guangzong had returned to Hailang Island spread throughout the military academy within a few days.

To the outside world, Ning Xue and Su Junyan both said the same thing: Guangzong didn't like the university and major he was studying at, so he dropped out, went home to take another year's exam, and went to another university and major that he liked.

Of course, few people believe it.

The news of Su Guangzong being expelled from school was initially only spread within the school. Later, some "nosy" person reported it to the newspaper, and a reporter even wrote a special report with the title "A college student from a prestigious school was addicted to games and was expelled from school."

Although the newspaper was only distributed in Shanghai, it did not mention any names, but only referred to the student as Su, a freshman at Fudan University.

However, in recent years, there are quite a few students from Hailang Island who have been admitted to Shanghai. As long as you pay a little attention, you will find the right one immediately.

At first, Ning Xue and Su Junyan were able to keep it a secret, but when the clippings of the report were sent back to them by gossipers, the news spread throughout the entire military academy.

Ning Xue went out to buy groceries. She didn't dare to get up so early and had to avoid people.

When Su Junyan was in the military unit, whenever his colleagues mentioned anything about children, he would no longer talk as freely as before, but would hide away under the pretext of smoking.

Both husband and wife were very timid, but Su Guangzong was the one who was playing it safe. He not only played in the game hall on Hailang Island, but also occasionally took a boat to the game halls in Jiang City and Wen City.

The former top student, good kid, and role model for all the kids in the military academy, has become an object of everyone's disdain, and will be pulled out as a typical negative example in a few days.

Shen Lie saw all of this.

The next day at noon and in the evening, he was absent-minded while eating.

When he caught a piece of fish with chopsticks, instead of putting it into his mouth, he poked it into his nose.

Ning Tang of course saw it, and before going to bed at night, he asked him, "What's going on?"

Shen Lie put his hands on the back of his head, stared at the ceiling, and sighed, "Alas, games are harmful."

It's no wonder he felt this way. After all, Da Wa and Er Niu are close in age to Su Guangzong and Su Yaozu, and they have been objects of comparison since they were young.

Even if Shen Lie doesn't say it, he sometimes envies the twins' obedience and good grades. This is human nature and is inevitable.

Hearing this, Ning Tang looked at him seriously and asked, "Do you still think that games are the cause of harm?"

Shen Lie looked back at her, "Don't you all think so? If it weren't for the game, Su Guangzong would still be studying in school. How could he be so addicted to it?"

Ning Tang glanced at him, "Then you are wrong. Even if it is not a game, it will be something else. Think about it yourself. Now society is getting more and more advanced. More and more fun things are appearing. Game halls are one, but what about skating rinks, discos, and karaoke bars that are popular from the island country? Which one is not fun?"

She found it strange. Why did they have to put all the blame on the game?

Admittedly, games have their faults.

But games are produced only as a form of entertainment.

The ones who should really be blamed are players like Su Guangzong who can't control their true nature, and parents like Su Junyan and Ning Xue who are incapable of guidance.

Ning Tang said, "Think about it yourself, is the game really that fun? Yes, it is fun, I don't deny it, but after playing it so many times, Su Guangzong should be bored with it, right? Why is he not bored with it until now? It's because he hasn't found something more fun than the game."

The more Shen Lie thought about it, the more he felt it made sense. He turned over and looked at her, "Go on, tell me how to guide him."

Ning Tang: "It's simple. Just let him find things that are more fun than games. Let Su Junyan and Ning Xue take him out more often, travel, visit places of interest, have a barbecue at home, invite friends over. Slowly, he will find that these things are much more fun than games. He will also make friends and he will no longer like to stay at home playing games. He will like to go out."

Another reason why Su Guangzong became addicted to the game hall so quickly was that he was a bit introverted and could hardly talk to his former roommates in college. With no one to play with, he naturally fell into the trap of the game hall.

After listening to this, Shen Lie was very emotional, "Why do I feel that Su Guangzong should be taught by you? If you were his mother, he would definitely not be like this now?"

Ning Tang turned over and covered himself with the quilt, "Forget it."

None of the three children are coming back this summer vacation.

Da Wa and Da Hu continued to stay in Shanghai to run their stall business. From the few words he occasionally sent back in the letters, Shen Lie realized that this kid's business seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and he even planned to open a store in Shanghai.

Land in Shanghai is very expensive. This guy must have made a lot of money to be able to open a store in Shanghai.

Erniu joined the school choir and had to rehearse throughout the summer. She said that the choir would have a performance in this year's Spring Festival Gala and would be on TV, so she asked Ningtang and Shenlie to watch it.

It also means that she has no time for the whole year. She has to rehearse during the summer vacation and perform on the Spring Festival Gala during the winter vacation.

Shen Lie sighed, "My daughter is just going to college, how come it's like she's being sold to a school?"

Not to mention Sanwa, who will be transferring to the national team in August this year. In the past few months, he has been busy saying goodbye to the coaches and teammates at the Navy Swimming Team training base, and has no time at all.

June 11th, morning.

When Sanwa came back from dinner with his coach and teammates, he heard the security guard at the gate say that his grandparents were looking for him.

Sanwa's eyes lit up, "Really? My grandma is here?"

He didn't expect that Ning Weiguo and Sun Aiju would come from Shangang Village to see him, so he quickly asked the security guard, "Then where are my grandma and grandpa?"

As soon as the words fell, two voices came to my ears, "Sanwa, we are here."

Sanwa turned his head and the smile on his face froze.

Because the people who walked out were not Ning Weiguo and Sun Aiju, but Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen.

Bai Xiaofen showed a gentle smile on her face, but in Sanwa's eyes, it looked very hypocritical. "Sanwa, we came to see you. Are you doing well here?"

Liang Dong glanced greedily at the tall, white building of the Navy Swim Team Training Base. "Sanwa, this place is pretty good."

Sanwa's face flashed with disgust, and he turned to the security guard and said, "Uncle Security, I don't know these two people. Don't let them in next time they come."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away, ignoring the calls from Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen behind him.

He really didn't expect that Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen were smart this time and knew to call themselves grandma and grandma instead of grandpa and grandma.

After returning to the dormitory, Sanwa immediately called home and said aggrievedly, "Mom——"

Ning Tang got up in the morning, bought groceries and went home. Just as she finished cooking, she heard the phone ring. As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard Sanwa's coquettish voice coming from the other end of the receiver. She curled her lips and said, "What's wrong? You're an adult, and you're still acting coquettishly with me."

Sanwa pouted and said, "I don't have any."

Ning Tang: "Okay, tell me what's going on."

It’s okay. Sanwa usually doesn’t? Call me.

Sanwa told him about Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen coming to see him, and pursed his lips, "You still say you're here to see? Ugh, who comes here to see someone empty-handed?"

It's obvious that she wants to gain benefits from him, but doesn't want to give any advantage to him.

Ning Tang sneered. It was easy to guess what Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen were up to. They must have seen the reports on TV or in the newspapers and knew that Sanwa had become successful now, so they wanted to take advantage of Sanwa and ask for money from him, just like they did with Shen Lie before.

It just so happens that Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen are Sanwa’s biological grandmother and great-grandfather, and Sanwa has an unbreakable blood relationship with them.

Ning Tang thought for a moment, "I'll take care of this. You just stay here and do whatever you need to do. You'll be going to Beijing in August anyway. I don't believe they can follow you to Beijing. If they dare, I'll break their legs."

Sanwa was amused and said, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Ning Tang prepared to go out.

Shen Lie had a rare chance to rest today, and slept until noon. When he got up, he saw Ning Tang hurried out the door, "Where are you going? To buy groceries?"

"No." Ning Tang kept walking, "I'm going to buy some paper money."

Shen Lie looked dazed, "Buying paper money?"

He followed the aroma to the kitchen and served himself a meal. He was halfway through his meal when he saw Ning Tang coming back with two large bags of paper money. His eyes widened immediately, "I thought you were just talking, but you actually bought some." He then asked, "Why are you buying paper money? Which relative of ours is dead?"

"Liang Dong and Bai Xiaofen." It's not a festival, and paper money is really hard to buy. Ning Tang was busy sorting out the paper money he bought and said casually.

Shen Lie's eyebrows jumped, "When did they die? Why didn't I receive any letter?" He stopped eating and stood up to walk around, "No, if they died, we should buy firecrackers, why buy paper money?"

"I actually hope they're really dead." Ning Tang snorted and said unhappily, "So that you don't have to do this and that every day. Just now when you were sleeping, Sanwa called me and said that the couple had found the Navy Swim Team training base."

Shen Lie nodded. This seemed like something he had done during the two sessions. "He went to ask Sanwa for money, right? But what does this have to do with the money you used to buy paper?"

Ning Tang, "Send it to? That? couple." He took out a piece of paper and a pen, "I'll talk, you write."

Shen Lie quickly took two mouthfuls of rice and cleaned the table. "Go ahead."

Ning Tang thought about it, really? He didn't know what to write. If he wrote it too euphemistically, the couple probably wouldn't understand, so he simply said, "Just say that if they come to look for any of our family members again, whether it's Sanwa, Dawa, or Erniu, I will go to their doorstep and burn paper money, no more, no less, just enough to burn 700 yuan, so that their whole building is filled with black smoke, and while burning, ask their neighbors to come out and judge."

Shen Lie laughed as he wrote, "You are still awesome."

Ning Tang rolled his eyes and said, "What's so great about that? I can do what I say."
