Chapter 139 Three People
Later on, each family had different arrangements for their children, so Yue Yuan and his two good friends naturally could no longer stick together closely.
At that time, social software was not as developed as it is today, and most of the communication was still done by phone. As a result, the three of them had less and less contact.
When Yue Yuan was eighteen years old, he entered the Abnormal Management Bureau with the approval of the Yue family. After years of diligent study and practice, Yue Yuan's ability was considered to be among the best among the new batch of people entering the bureau, and he soon got the opportunity to go on missions.
The first time he went on a mission, he saw a very bloody scene. He and his teammates who entered the game at the same time looked at each other and vomited one after another.
Because of this tacit understanding of vomiting together, Yue Yuan gradually had some teammates with whom he could get closer and drink and daydream together.
After getting drunk one time, the teammates performed their family's unique skills one by one, and then asked Yue Yuan to perform as well.
Yue Yuan felt that they were already friends and they were no longer children, so he said bluntly that he was an illegitimate child and had not yet received the official inheritance of the family, so he had not been granted the unique skills.
But after that, his teammates distanced themselves from him.
Yue Yuan vaguely heard some gossips. Some people said that his mother was a mistress and he was the child of that third party. Naturally, these gossips were spread by the nephews and nephews of the eldest lady of the Yue family, that is, the wife of Yue Yuan's father.
This wasn't the first time Yue Yuan had heard such words, and he wasn't even surprised. He was just a little... sad.
At the beginning, it was obvious that the man had fallen in love with his mother first, and then had him. But then, for the ridiculous reason of family honor, he abandoned them and married a woman from another aristocratic family.
What's even more ridiculous is that afterwards, the man wanted to take him back to Yue's family because he lost his fertility in an accident.
At that time, his mother's health was already very poor... It goes without saying how a poor, unmarried woman with a child would be treated in that era.
His mother didn't want him originally, but her physical condition was not suitable for abortion, so she had no choice but to give birth to him. But she did not torture Yue Yuan, a child who also had no choice, because of her "no choice". She herself was harshly blamed and tortured by fate, but she never thought of getting revenge on Yue Yuan.
She was always gentle to him, always stroking his head and taking out leftover snacks from guests in big hotels from her blue and white flower pocket and giving them to him.
At that time, Yue Yuan always thought that he had to grow up as soon as possible, so that he could protect his mother from all the wind and rain and let her no longer have to work so hard.
But fate had always been harsh to this woman who had never done anything bad in her life. Before she came to Yue's family, she had contracted a very severe infectious disease and died not long after. Even her body could not stay for more than a few days and had to be burned to ashes.
Before she died, she apologized to Yue Yuan, saying that she was not a qualified mother, which was why Yue Yuan's life was so difficult. He also said that he hoped he could survive and live as long as possible. If he really can't survive, it doesn't matter. She will go first and take care of everything for him from now on, so that he won't suffer with her anymore.
The woman's consciousness was already blurred at that time. She was talking nonsense and calling Yue Yuan's nickname.
Yue Yuan felt that she was wrong. She is obviously the best mother in the world, with the warmest hands and the gentlest eyes.
He still didn't quite understand what death meant.
Yue Yuan was seven or eight years old at that time. After his mother died, hunger left him with no choice but to become a beggar. Another day, he was squatting on the street corner begging, hoping that a kind-hearted person would give him a steamed bun. The Yue family found him and hoped that he would return to the Yue family.
He still remembered his mother's request for him to try his best to live, so he agreed.
Now he can eat well, wear warm clothes, read and write, which is much better than before, but he is still bullied.
However, he has suffered a lot of bullying like this since he was a child.
Mrs. Yue looked down on him, or rather, hated him.
He also hated the woman who gave birth to him, but Mingming, they had never even met.
Yue Yuan often felt that Mrs. Yue hated the wrong person. No matter what, she should hate the man who put his mother and herself in such an embarrassing situation.
But he never told Mrs. Yue. After all, every time Mrs. Yue came to see him, she was here to torture him, so he had to save his energy for dealing with those things.
The man knew all these things, but he was never reliable. Even for the child born to the woman he loved, he did not dare to come forward to protect it, for fear of angering his wife-in-law's family, who had a higher family background.
So he often appeared after Yue Yuan was beaten, dropping medicine or saying something like "It's all my fault".
Yue Yuan thought, what else?
But he didn't say it. He knew that if he said these words, he would be the only one who would feel bad. He learned this not long after he came to the Yue family, and he also learned to be taciturn.
At first, he was a little uncomfortable, but gradually, he really became less talkative.
Later, he went to school. In order to prevent other people from the noble families from laughing at him, Madam Yue didn't beat him much. However, Madam Yue's nephew was obviously influenced by the adults and learned to be very cunning. He made up a story that Yue Yuan's mother was a mistress.
For the first time, Yue Yuan couldn't help himself and punched the man to the ground, and his fists fell on the man's body and face without any care.
He thought that if Mrs. Yue didn't let him go this time, he would not live. After all, it had been several years, and his mother should be ready to welcome him down there.
At first, he was in the upper hand because of his bravery, but he was soon pinned down and beaten by others who reacted quickly. Two fists are no match for four hands, and Yue Yuan was beaten badly, with bruises all over his face and blood foam between his teeth.
Lin Yan and Ning Xiao passed by and stepped forward to help without hesitation, shouting, "If you want to fight, then fight. Why do you use your numbers to bully the minority?"
The two of them were among the best in the school in terms of fighting ability, and soon they drove away everyone else. From then on, Yue Yuan had friends, real friends.
Lin Yan and Ning Xiao are both heirs of large families. With them going to and from school with Yue Yuan every morning and evening, those who originally bullied Yue Yuan only dared to continue spreading rumors in private and did not dare to take action again.
The time that followed was the happiest and simplest few years for Yue Yuan.
…
Under the flickering flames, recalling the warmth of the past, even the alienation of teammates became unimportant.
At least... he still has two friends.
Yue Yuan actually couldn't say for sure whether he and Lin Yan Ning Xiao were still friends now. After all, they were both studying abroad, learning the subjects they were interested in. They were busy with tedious schoolwork all day long, and it took a long time for them to make a phone call.
When they last contacted, Ning Xiao said in a sly way, "Xiaoyuan, I have a surprise for you, please check it out."
Lin Yan said: "Maybe it was a shock?"
Yue Yuan didn't know what these two were up to, but then at the weekly meeting of the Alien Management Bureau, he saw the two people who had completed their studies and finally entered the Alien Management Bureau according to their family's wishes.
The Alien Management Bureau has always had a system where the old bring up the new. Two people can freely choose someone from among the old staff who has no new people under them. The smarter ones will choose someone with more experience and a higher status to pave the way for them in the future.
But the two of them walked towards Yue Yuan without hesitation, one on the left and one on the right, and asked, "How is it? Is it a surprise enough?"
"We were so noisy, he used to think we were like two sparrows, or maybe he was frightened..."
Yue Yuan's mountain-like body immediately hugged the two people in his arms, one on each side, and lifted them off the ground, "Surprise, it's a surprise."
There is nothing better than a pleasant surprise to meet old friends again.
