After dinner, Liang's mother refused Ge'er's request to help wash the dishes, but gave him a set of toiletries and told him to wash up and rest quickly.
After washing up, Ge'er lay in bed, silently listening to her parents' conversation outside the door.
Of course, they were already speaking very softly, but Ger's hearing was just too good.
"Do you think Wei Nianpan encountered some difficulties and came to us for help?" Aunt Liang asked softly, looking at Wei Yewu.
Wei Yewu was silent for a moment, then nodded: "It should be, but he's the only one left in his family. We should help him if we can. It's not easy for a child to live alone in this world."
Aunt Liang nodded, sighed for a moment, and asked, "Should we tell Dad about this?"
Wei Yewu was a bit of a headache. After all, although his grandfather was still in relatively good health, he might be too heartbroken and get sick from worrying about his own brother's family's situation. "I just called the number my great-grandfather left behind, but no one answered. Tomorrow I'll call the police station in Shanghai to verify the situation. If it's true, I'll try to tell Dad. After all, the children are with us, and the truth will eventually come out."
Looking at Wei Yewu, Aunt Liang suddenly stared intently into his eyes: "This Wei Nianpan isn't some illegitimate child you left behind, is he? Tell me, did you two conspire to trick me into keeping him?"
Wei Yewu froze for a moment, then laughed and cried at the same time: "What are you thinking? You've only ever been the one woman in my life."
After a while, Wei Yewu also sighed, "But I have to say, when I saw him, I was stunned for a moment. This kid looks so much like Lin'er, and he looks a lot like you and me, especially his eyes, which are very similar to yours."
Next comes the private conversation between the couple.
As Geer listened, he felt a mix of emotions and didn't know what to say.
In a small room on the first floor, Wei Nianlin was holding his phone, frantically replying to messages, with an extremely smug smile on his face.
"I only had dinner, what did I miss? Ah!"
"I only had dinner. When I came back, I saw that I had 99+ unread messages. I thought you guys were just posting nonsense again. I didn't expect that the vice president had met the white-robed wizard again. Why can't I see him?"
"Is this the first time a white-robed wizard has appeared in China?"
"He definitely came to China because he's going to attend our offline gathering tomorrow."
"God help me, let me see the white-robed wizard once."
"Vice President, please tell me the details again. I want to hear every single detail, every single one!"
"..."
As Wei Nianlin replied, he watched the people in the group showering him with praise, which greatly satisfied his vanity.
"Let me tell you, you didn't see it then, the knife was almost at my neck, I really thought I was going to see my great-grandmother, but I never expected that ugly man with the mask to just walk straight past me and into the distance..."
“I swear on my life that it was the white-robed wizard, and I wasn’t the only one who saw him at the time.”
"It's a real pity I didn't think to take a picture with my phone at the time."
Finally, after chatting for who knows how long, the group reluctantly stopped their discussion.
The guild leader then sent another message in the group: "Vice guild leader, are you sure the white-robed wizard can come to our offline gathering tomorrow?"
She had already boasted to the presidents of the White Robe Wizard's fan clubs in other cities that the White Robe Wizard would definitely come this time. She had even secretly revealed the location of their offline meeting to a few familiar presidents. If the White Robe Wizard didn't come, she would truly be disgraced, and the people in her Jinling City fan club would never be able to hold their heads up again.
When Wei Nianlin saw the message, he was stunned for a moment, but he quickly gritted his teeth and replied, "Don't worry, I asked again, and the white-robed wizard said he would definitely come."
After finishing typing, Wei Nianlin collapsed there as if all his strength had been drained.
The bright white light overhead illuminated the entire room, but for some reason, Wei Nianlin felt incredibly irritated by the bright light.
Second floor, Ge's room.
Just as Gel hung up on Wanda, his phone rang again. Upon closer inspection, it was Peter calling.
“Gell, it’s such a shame you didn’t come. Those guys are trying to provoke our school again. This time, I’m going to teach them a lesson on behalf of our club,” Peter said excitedly to Gell.
Gel instinctively felt that something was wrong—why did Wanda and Peter both have to go out at the same time?
Dangel shook his head, feeling that he was suffering from paranoia and that everything he did was abnormal.
Wanda's drama club and Peter's academic society both frequently hold various events, and today's events must have just happened to coincide.
“They’re all just defeated opponents. I trust your abilities. You can handle this small matter on your own,” Ger smiled and said to Peter.
At this moment, Ge Er's ears twitched slightly, as if he heard someone coming upstairs. He peeked out and found that Wei Nianlin was climbing upstairs and standing outside his door, pacing hesitantly.
Inside the room, Ger sensed Wei Nianlin's conflicted expression and found it amusing.
"Peter, I have something to do, I'll hang up now." Gel hung up the phone, ready to see how long Wei Nianlin would keep agonizing over this.
A minute later, when Wei Nianlin finally knocked on the door, Ge Er suppressed a laugh and replied, "Come in."
