Chapter 18 A treacherous younger brother, a truly awful brother-in-law?
“I have a bad temper too,” Ji Huaizhi said, looking at Feng Jun.
They didn't take Hu Yixiang seriously at all.
Feng Jun looked at Hu Yixiang: "You should be polite when you're at someone else's house, especially since Ji Huaizhi might be your junior brother in the future."
"Don't try to claim kinship with me."
Seeing Ji Huaizhi's disdainful look, Hu Yixiang lowered his eyes and shut his mouth.
Qin Shuang and Ji Renyi exchanged a glance: "What's going on here?"
Feng Jun hadn't expected Ji Huaizhi to have such a bad temper. He thought Ji Huaizhi was a kind-hearted guy who helped the police with their cases.
It seems this kid also has a bad temper.
“I am Feng Jun from the 736 Scientific Research and Military Industry Unit. I would like to talk to you about Ji Huaizhi.”
Before Ji Huaizhi could say anything hurtful, he added, "Of course, I'm also discussing this with you."
“Look…”
Qin Shuang thought it sounded high-end when she heard him talk about scientific research and military industry, and looked at Ji Renyi.
Both of them simultaneously thought of what Liu Song, the police officer, had said that day.
“He is very talented in weapons, but of course he may not only be talented in weapons, maybe in computers, or maybe in other areas.”
"But I think with his abilities, it would be best for him to work in scientific research or military industry."
“I can maximize his potential.”
Ji Huaizhi sneered, looking as if he was quietly watching you show off.
Feng Jun looked at him: "You seem to dislike me?"
Ji Huaizhi looked up: "It's alright, I hate the person next to you."
"The way he looked at me at the police station made me very uncomfortable."
Feng Jun looked at Hu Yixiang with suspicion: "What grudge do you two have?"
Hu Yixiang shook his head.
Ji Huaizhi: "It might simply be a clash of magnetic fields."
Qin Shuang looked at this and that: "Huaizhi, I want to talk to this teacher alone. You go in first."
"I won't easily agree to things you don't agree to."
Upon hearing this, Ji Huaizhi returned to his room without saying anything.
Feng Jun's expression was somewhat strange; this was the first time he had ever been humiliated.
"Sorry, that's just his personality," Qin Shuang said softly to them. "I wanted to ask, is what you're talking about dangerous?"
Feng Jun replied, "I can't give you a 100% guarantee, after all, there's a chance of explosions and failed experiments in our lab, but we always do our best to protect the people inside."
Ji Renyi: "I want to ask, what will be the consequences if my brother doesn't go?"
Feng Jun paused for a moment and then said, "You should know that the wanted criminal from their school was caught, right?"
The two nodded.
Are you afraid he'll become the next wanted criminal?
Qin Shuang frowned, her expression not very pleasant: "Our child is naughty, but why did you say that about him?"
Feng Jun said awkwardly, "That's not what I meant. You should all know about his talent. I tested him today. He has such great abilities at his age. If he ever harbors malicious intent, it will be a disaster for the victims."
"Moreover, he can make weapons. Once these kinds of people reach a certain level of expertise, they will be brought under state control."
"You might feel even worse then."
Seeing their expressions, Feng Jun continued to persuade them:
"Besides, this is something that brings glory to the country. I hope you can persuade him to use his abilities where they are needed."
Qin Shuang's expression was unpleasant: "We don't pressure our children, but I think what you're saying is too extreme."
Ji Renyi did not speak.
Feng Jun: "I know he's a good kid. He helps catch criminals and reminds teachers when he sees classmates being bullied. But I want to say that people's malice often happens in an instant."
“Even I have a history of throwing bombs into other people’s homes.”
"What's it like inside? Will my little brother be bullied?" Ji Renyi asked.
Feng Jun then realized that the other party was only a 16-year-old child.
They weren't even adults yet.
"Actually, everything is a microcosm of society. You should understand that if someone is very talented, others will admire and worship them, but it will also arouse jealousy."
"But once his abilities reach a certain level, others will only pursue him, and he will not be bullied."
"At that time, you should have wondered if he would bully others."
As the older brother, Ji Renyi didn't want his underage younger brother to be too far away from him, but he was also afraid that he would hold him back and affect his entire life.
How often does he come back?
Feng Jun: "He is still young and was specially recruited. When he goes there, a teacher will be assigned to him. It is a completely closed environment and isolated from the world."
"It requires continuous refinement and testing."
Looking at the couple's expressions, he continued:
"It's like your family will no longer have Ji Huaizhi."
Qin Shuang was stunned: "What do you mean there is no such person as Ji Huaizhi?"
Ji Renyi pulled her back, understanding dawning on him.
He's already said enough about the kind of places he just mentioned.
The rest are definitely not up for comment.
After seeing the master and apprentice off, Feng Jun stopped at the door: "We'll be staying in this city for three days."
"Please think about it. We may not be able to say much more or go into too much detail, but you can think about it deeply. This is a matter that concerns Ji Huaizhi's entire life."
After everyone left, Qin Shuang and Ji Renyi fell silent.
I tossed and turned in bed all night and couldn't fall asleep.
Ji Renyi opened his eyes: "The baby in my belly is getting dizzy from all the spinning."
Qin Shuang's comeback this time was quite significant:
"Then tell me what your thoughts are?"
“I don’t have any ideas. I’ll ask him tomorrow and let him make his own decision.”
"What decisions can someone so young make?"
Qin Shuang stared at the ceiling: "Do you think if we refuse, he'll hate us when he grows up and understands things?"
Ji Renyi closed his eyes and remained silent.
Qin Shuang wasn't sleepy, and lay on her side talking to herself:
"Actually, when I first married you, your brother didn't like me and hated me, so I didn't want to talk to him."
"But when I see him, I think of your childhood. He is your only relative, so I want to teach him well and make your past suffering meaningful."
Qin Shuang recalled the time when she had just married him:
"Later, I also treated him as my own younger brother. Sometimes when he was so naughty, I could feel that he was very insecure."
"If you send him to that place, won't he think we've abandoned him?"
"I can't imagine what our family will be like without Huaizhi."
"He's already so talented at sixteen. If we don't send him later... won't he resent us for making decisions on our own and holding him back?"
Ji Renyi touched her face and leaned closer to her neck.
"Qin Shuang, thank you."
