Volume 1 Chapter 97 What a wonderful family ethics drama
After dinner, they went shopping. When it was time, Du Qian went to work and sent Du Yao and Xu Siyan back to school.
Du Ruo continued shopping with Wen Jiahuan and Xu Yichu.
In a corner where no one cared, the lonely Xu Xingzhi stayed at home with a sullen face staring at his phone, curious as to why these people hadn't come back after dinner, but he couldn't bring himself to call and ask, so he was just sulking.
Wen Jiahuan's status changed, and she was very grateful to Du Ruo for her kindness in accepting her son. She said warmly, "Ruobao, I know you have everything, but I don't know what you like. I will feel uncomfortable if I don't give you something. Gold, jewelry, bags, your mother doesn't make these things. You can buy whatever you want, and I will pay for it. Oh, you don't know how happy I am. How can my family be so worthy of this? I will have to pay incense to our ancestors later."
Du Ruo couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to accompany the two shopping-crazy ladies for several hours. The shopping guides in the entire mall were all grinning from ear to ear.
After returning home exhausted, Du Ruo went back to her room to rest. Then she realized belatedly that Xu Jingmo only had one class in the afternoon and it was already time for him to get off class, so why didn't he send her a WeChat message?
Du Ruo changed into home clothes, lay on the bed, and sent him a message.
【What are you doing? 】
There was no reply from the other side.
Du Ruo flipped through their chat log from noon and thought, could he be angry? He shouldn't be like that. That's not like him.
Du Ruo called his phone, but it was turned off.
She was confused and sent a WeChat message to Shi Rui, [Is Xu Jingmo with you guys? ]
Shi Rui: [? No, my second brother left right after class. Didn’t he come home to look for you?]
Du Ruo: [I'm not at home. I just called him but he didn't answer.]
Shi Rui: [Ah, the phone is out of battery. ]
Du Ruo: [OK, no problem, I'm just asking.]
Shi Rui: [Sister, shall we go play in the escape room on Saturday? ]
Du Ruo: [No, I'm in Jiangcheng and I don't know when I will be back.]
Shi Rui: [Ah, okay.]
After the chat, Shi Rui hesitated for a while, but still sent a WeChat message to Jian Yu, [Would you like to play in the escape room together on Saturday? ]
Du Ruo was lying on the bed, wondering where Xu Jingmo was and why he suddenly disappeared. As she was thinking, she felt sleepy and fell asleep unknowingly.
When she woke up again, it was Du Yao who came upstairs and asked her to go downstairs for dinner.
Du Ruo glanced at her phone. It was 6:30 in the evening and Xu Jingmo still hadn't replied to her message.
She felt inexplicably unhappy, suppressed the inexplicable irritation in her heart, and went downstairs to eat.

Xu's, inside the restaurant.
Xu Siyan ate without saying a word, silently eating faster than usual. After finishing, he put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full. I'm going to go play with Du Yao."
"Stop." Xu Xingzhi stopped him in his tracks with a sharp voice.
Xu Siyan turned around and looked at him.
"Have you finished your homework?"
Xu Siyan: "I finished writing it at school."
"Is it enough to just finish your homework? Have you done the Olympiad math problems? Your sister is back, why are you so distracted? What does it have to do with you?" Xu Xingzhi scolded unhappily.
Xu Siyan looked down at his toes and whispered, "It doesn't matter, so what? I just like Sister Du Ruo. She is my idol and I adore her."
Xu Xingzhi sneered, "You still call me an idol? Why don't you go to MIT and show me how to do it? With your undisciplined and unstable mentality now, do you really think that you can always be the first in elementary school? How can I trust you to teach you all my knowledge in the future if you are like this?"
Xu Siyan was silent for a few seconds, then retorted, "I will not inherit the family business. I also want to study physics and do scientific research in the future."
"What did you say?!" Xu Xingzhi stood up angrily, "Say it again?"
Xu Siyan made up his mind and mustered up the courage to repeat himself: "I said, I will not inherit the family business in the future. I also want to study physics."
While having lunch at noon, he listened to Du Ruo describing the mysteries of the universe to him. Although he did not understand what he was saying, he became very interested.
He doesn't like watching the ups and downs of the stock market, he doesn't like dealing with finance, and he also wants to study physics.
Xu Xingzhi said angrily, "Okay, okay, you guys, I don't know what kind of magic potion Du Ruo fed you. Xu Jingmo ran after her when he was a child, and you actually want to study physics with her? How could I have sons like you? I absolutely don't agree!"
Xu Siyan whispered back, "I will learn even if you disagree. I am the one who decides my future. You have no right to decide for me."
Xu Xingzhi slammed the table, "Xu Siyan! Is this how you go to school? Is the school just teaching you how to disobey your parents?"
Xu Siyan remained silent, pretending not to hear anything.
Wen Jiahuan stood up and said, "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak. Talking can make me get breast nodules."
Xu Xingzhi: "A loving mother often spoils her child. I am educating my child, so you should stay out of my way."
Wen Jiahuan: "What have you taught me? I shouldn't have believed you in the beginning. I am a good son, but now I don't come home or call, it's all because of you!"
"He is born rebellious and unfilial. What does it have to do with me?" Xu Xingzhi said angrily. He looked at Xu Siyan and said, "You, go upstairs and do the questions."
Xu Siyan insisted: "I want to go to Du's house to play."
Xu Xingzhi said angrily: "How dare you!"
Wen Jiahuan said angrily: "Xu Xingzhi! If you yell at my son again, I will divorce you!"
Xu Xingzhi pointed at them and said angrily: "Don't think you are not here. You too, have changed a lot since you got to know Xu Yichu. You were not like this before!"
Wen Jiahuan: "If I didn't know Yichu, I wouldn't know that your attitude towards me over the years is called CPU!"
Xu Xing was stunned. What the hell?
Wen Jiahuan said angrily: "Si Yan, go, let's see what he dares to do to you today."
Xu Siyan turned around and walked away. Xu Xingzhi shouted angrily, "Xu Siyan, if you dare to walk out of this room today, be careful or I will break your legs!"
Xu Siyan trembled with fear, and Wen Jiahuan burst into tears in anger. She rushed over and beat Xu Xingzhi while shouting, "Divorce! I want a divorce from you! We can't live like this anymore!"
Xu Siyan turned around and advised: "Mom..."
Amidst the chaos, there was a sudden burst of applause.
The three looked over and saw Xu Jingmo standing in the living room, recording a video with his phone and applauding. "Wow, what a wonderful family ethics drama."
Xu Siyan and Wen Jiahuan's eyes lit up.
"elder brother?!"
"Son?!"
