Chapter 69 Half-sister

Just as Qi Nian was lost in thought, the office door was pushed open and a woman's voice came in: "You just finished the parents' meeting and called me back in a hurry. Did something happen to our Jiang Peng?"

Following the sound, Qi Nian saw a woman dressed elegantly. She was wearing fur and her hands with manicures were touching her fashionable curly hair. Although she had a son as old as Yu Jiangpeng, she looked very young.

When Yu Jiangpeng saw that it was his mother, he breathed a sigh of relief, pretended to be aggrieved, and quickly walked to his mother's side: "Mom..."

"Oh, what happened?" Yu Jiangpeng's mother raised her hands, which obviously had never done anything, and rubbed Yu Jiangpeng's hair.

"Dear mother, your son bullied his classmates at school..." Yu Xuecai's head teacher immediately told the truth about what Yu Jiangpeng had done.

According to normal logic, if your child bullies another classmate, he should apologize first. However, Yu Jiangpeng's mother looked up at Yu Xuecai standing next to her and said nonchalantly, "Isn't it okay? Why did you ask me to come here specially? I thought it was our Jiangpeng who was bullied."

The meaning of this statement is almost the same as saying: It doesn't matter if my son bullies others, as long as he is not bullied by others.

Yu Xuecai, the head teacher, was almost angry to death on the spot. These disgusting rich people are destroying the pillars of the future of our motherland!

Yu Xuecai’s class teacher didn’t dare to look at Yu Xuecai, for fear of seeing the child’s disappointed eyes.

"Mother of Yu Jiangpeng, how can you say that? Aren't other people's children also children? How can you allow your child to bully other people's children? Other people's children also have mothers, and he is still his mother's treasure!" Yu Xuecai's head teacher was holding back his anger and argued.

As a result, Yu Jiangpeng's mother paused while touching Yu Jiangpeng's head, glanced at Yu Xuecai's head teacher, frowned and said, "Who told you to talk to me like that? Which class are you the head teacher of? Believe it or not, I'll make you get out of here immediately!"

After saying this, he muttered, "Really? When have I ever been so angry? I tell you, even if your principal came here, he wouldn't dare to talk to me like this."

Yu Xuecai's head teacher's face turned red with anger: "You..."

When he wanted to say something, Yu Xuecai tugged at his clothes. The child said obediently, "Teacher, forget it."

Class teacher Yu Xuecai's eyes turned red, he felt sorry for the child.

At this moment, Yu Jiangpeng was still saying to his mother, "Tsk, I don't want to look at that poor guy any more. But someone actually said that he and I look alike, and even asked if he is my brother. Mom, he must transfer to another school, otherwise I will be laughed at to death!"

Just because others say that he and Yu Xuecai are brothers, he can use this as an excuse to bully Yu Xuecai, even though Yu Xuecai has done nothing wrong!

Yu Xuecai's class teacher was so angry that he was shaking all over. Yu Xuecai was obviously such an excellent student. He lost his father when he was young and his family was poor, but he was still able to enter No. 1 Middle School with excellent grades and ranked among the top students in the middle school.

But what about Yu Jiangpeng? He was admitted to No. 1 Middle School by virtue of his family, but he was idle all day long. However, because his family was rich, he felt that he was superior to others and could bully students like Yu Xuecai.

Although he is just a teenager, his arrogance is shocking.

But Yu Jiangpeng's mother didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what her son said. She glanced at Yu Xuecai and said directly, "How much money do you want to transfer to another school? Is 100,000 enough?"

Yu Xuecai's head teacher said angrily: "How can you use money to insult people like this!"

Yu Jiangpeng's mother sighed and said, "You think it's too little? How about 200,000? Do you really think you're worth 200,000 just because you got into college? I tell you, if you do that, you'll still be working for my son in the future. Just take the money and don't let my son see it."

"Mom, give him some more money and tell him not to use the last name Yu anymore," said Yu Jiangpeng.

"This is my father's last name!" When Yu Xuecai heard his words, he clenched his fists in resistance for the first time.

"What kind of trash is your dad? Why does he have the same last name as my dad?" With his mother's support, Yu Jiangpeng seemed even more arrogant.

"Don't go too far!" Qi Nian was so angry watching from the side that he wanted to interrupt Yu Jiangpeng's mother several times.

"Are you the parent of this Yu Xuecai?" Yu Jiangpeng's mother looked at Qi Nian, who was wearing obviously different clothes, and was a little hesitant.

"We just can't stand your kind-hearted attitude. Tsk tsk, I really doubt that you are such a bad person." Meng Zhaonan mocked, "Should I make a report?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Yu Jiangpeng's mother looked at Meng Zhaonan sternly.

"What do you mean I'm talking nonsense? Aren't you talking nonsense too? Do you really think you are the emperor? Should others avoid mentioning your last name? Hey, this classmate Yu Xuecai looks like your son and has the same last name. I really feel unlucky for him." Meng Zhaonan had been wanting to confront someone for a long time, so his words were very blunt, and Yu Jiangpeng's mother was so angry that her face turned purple.

"you……"

At this moment, a woman knocked on the door and came in hurriedly. Her face was full of traces of time, and her hands had no manicure, only rough hairpins.

When she saw Yu Xuecai crying, the woman asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Teacher, what happened?"

Class teacher Yu Xuecai looked at the woman and was speechless.

However, when Yu Jiangpeng's mother saw Yu Xuecai's mother, she raised her hand to cover her nose and said in disgust: "How can your school accept everyone? If it continues like this, I will send my son back to the aristocratic school."

"Mom, I won't transfer schools. Only Yu Xuecai should transfer!" Yu Jiangpeng said arrogantly.

Yu Xuecai's mother came to her senses and said angrily, "How can you say that? Also, what is the reason for my son to transfer to another school?"

Yu Xuecai's mother raised her son for so many years and also took care of her elderly mother-in-law. Over time, she developed a hot-tempered temper. When she saw that her son was obviously bullied, she immediately started scolding him.

Although Yu Jiangpeng's mother seemed arrogant, she really couldn't scold the other party for a while.

She stamped her feet in anger and accused the two head teachers: "Is this how you teachers manage students? You let her scold me like this?"

"Hey, Mr. Yu Jiangpeng, you are wrong. This person is also a parent, and we have no right to control them." Class teacher Yu Xuecai finally felt proud.

Haha, she didn’t dare to scold her parents, it felt really good when someone scolded her.

It was especially satisfying to see Yu Jiangpeng’s mother jumping up in anger.

"You...you all gang up on each other to bully others. Wait...wait for me to call my husband over!" Yu Jiangpeng's mother said as she started making a phone call.

"Tell him over here. I'm afraid of you. Haha, I want to see what kind of people you are to cause such harm to a piece of trash like you. How dare you bully my son? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will never let you go!" Yu Xuecai's mother put one hand on her waist and pointed at Yu Jiangpeng's mother's nose with the other hand and cursed.

Qi Nian, Meng Zhaonan and the two class teachers were stunned. They never expected that Yu Xuecai's mother was such a person!

But let alone them, even Yu Xuecai himself was shocked. In his impression, his mother was always a very gentle person. How could she actually curse at someone like this?

It's no wonder that Yu Xuecai didn't know. The main reason was that his mother always avoided her child whenever she scolded someone. Her son studied so well and would definitely be a powerful figure in the future. There was no need for him to hear these dirty words.

But now that she heard her son was being bullied, how could she hold back from scolding them? She scolded those bastards to the point of bloodshed!

Yu Xuecai: Suddenly I think my mother is so cool!

Yu Jiangpeng's mother was still threatening: "Wait, my husband will come over and take care of you!"

At this moment, Qi Nian looked at Yu Jiangpeng and then at Yu Xuecai, and felt that the two looked more and more alike. Moreover, they both happened to have the surname Yu. Was it really a coincidence?

The two sides were arguing fiercely just now, and Qi Nian was mad at Yu Jiangpeng's mother, so he didn't have the energy to think too much. Now that there was finally a temporary truce, Qi Nian began to dig to see if there was really any big news.

Then, his eyes widened: [Oh my god, no wonder people say Yu Jiangpeng and Yu Xuecai look alike, they are actually half-brothers! ]

Yu Xuecai's mother frowned: Didn't my husband die more than ten years ago? How could he have another child?

Qi Nian quickly dug up the details: [It turned out that Yu Xuecai's father had been working in another place before, but he was too embarrassed to go home because he didn't get his salary, so he wrote a letter to his wife, saying that he had contracted an infectious disease outside and asked his wife not to look for him. At that time, transportation was not well developed, and Yu Xuecai's mother had no way to find him. She really thought that this scumbag was dead, and she even built a tomb for him in her hometown.]

[Who would have thought that this scumbag was not dead at all, and even found a rich man's daughter and married her. If Yu Xuecai had not studied well and was recommended by a teacher to study in No. 1 Middle School, it is estimated that the two would never meet in their lifetime. ]

[Ah… Yu Xuecai’s mother had worked so hard to raise Yu Xuecai for so many years, and she also took good care of that scumbag’s old mother. But that scumbag didn’t even die. Instead, he was living a carefree life outside, got married and had children!]

Qi Nian clenched his fists!

Yu Xuecai's mother's mind went blank at this moment. Her mind was filled with the thought that Yu Gaoyun was not dead at all. Then what was the point of working so hard for so many years?

This piece of news was so devastating that Yu Xuecai's mother was unable to recover. She had fantasized countless times before that Yu Gaoyun might not be dead and would return home in glory one day to look for them.

However, now that she knew that the other person might not be dead, she was not happy at all. She would rather Yu Gaoyun was really dead.

"How could my dad be his dad!" Yu Jiangpeng screamed in excitement.

However, whether they believed it or not, the office door was pushed open again and a man walked in.

Before the man could say anything, he heard an unbelievable voice: "Yu Gaoyun! It's really you!"

Yu Gaoyun married a young lady from a wealthy family and had not suffered much over the years, so his appearance had not changed much. Yu Xuecai's mother recognized the man she had been thinking about for more than ten years almost immediately.

However, Yu Gaoyun could hardly recognize Yu Xuecai's mother. After all, this woman had aged so much in just a dozen years.

"Who are you……"

Before he could finish his words, Yu Xuecai's mother rushed over and kicked and beat Yu Gaoyun: "Yu Gaoyun, you are such a heartless person. I worked so hard to raise you and your son, but you didn't die. Do you know what kind of life I have been living for all these years?"

Yu Gaoyun widened his eyes and looked in disbelief at the woman who was kicking and hitting him crazily.

"What Yu Gaoyun, isn't your name Yu Hongyun?!" Yu Jiangpeng's mother also came to her senses. She never imagined that her seemingly honest husband had been married to someone else and had a child with her!

And it was with a woman like this, she couldn't accept it.

"I told you not to wait for me!" Yu Gaoyun initially refused to admit that he was the person Yu Xuecai's mother mentioned. Later, when he found that the other party did not believe him, he began to make excuses for himself: "I told you to find a good man to marry, but you didn't listen. If you don't marry, do you mean you can't allow me to marry again?"

"How dare you say such things? How dare you!" Yu Xuecai's mother grabbed Yu Gaoyun like a madman.

Yu Gaoyun finally couldn't stand it anymore and pushed Yu Xuecai's mother away. The latter staggered and sat on the ground.

Yu Xuecai rushed forward: "Don't bully my mom, you bastard!"

"You...you are Xuecai?" Yu Gaoyun looked at Yu Xuecai with some surprise. He was absolutely sure that this was his son. He gave this name to the son when he was still in his mother's womb.

Yu Xuecai was held by the other party by the arm and could not move. He could only stare at Yu Jiangpeng with gritted teeth.

Yu Jiangpeng: "Xuecai, I'm your father."

"You are not my father! My father died a long time ago!" Yu Xuecai struggled hard, and hit his head on Yu Gaoyun's chest. He finally broke free from the restraints, ran back to his mother and helped her up.

Yu Xuecai: "Mom, are you okay?"

His mother shook her head: "It's okay, Mom is fine..."

Yu Gaoyun looked at his son and was about to say something when he was hit hard on the head.

Yu Jiangpeng's mother screamed, "You, Yu Hongyun, have deceived me for so many years. What? You still want to recognize them as mother and son? Yu Hongyun, I will never let you go!"

Yu Gaoyun felt a little embarrassed: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

"How dare you talk to me like that? Yu Hongyun, explain it to me clearly!" Yu Jiangpeng's mother pulled him relentlessly.

"Are you done? Don't think this is still the time when your father is alive!" Yu Gaoyun shouted.

Yu Jiangpeng's mother couldn't believe it and went crazy on the spot: "Yu Hongyun, how dare you talk to me like that? If it weren't for me and my dad, you would be a bricklayer at a construction site. Apologize to me, do you hear me, or I'll kick you out of the company!"

Yu Gaoyun was already upset, and when he heard this, he yelled, "Who do you think cares about your crappy company? I tell you, your company has been in trouble for a long time and is about to go bankrupt. Do you understand? That's a huge amount of debt!"

Yu Jiangpeng's mother's in-laws' company was indeed good in the past, but that was when Yu Jiangpeng's grandfather was still alive, and he was capable of running the company well.

But later, Yu Jiangpeng's grandfather passed away in a hurry, and he didn't have time to arrange anything. So the company was left to Yu Jiangpeng's mother and Yu Gaoyun.

Of the two, one was a pampered young lady who had no idea how to manage a company; the other had only been to school for a few days and had been working as a brick mover on a construction site. No matter what, it was impossible for her to manage a company.

Unfortunately, when Yu Jiangpeng's grandfather was alive, no matter how the other party taught Yu Gaoyun, the latter did not learn well, and all he thought about all day was how to fool the old man.

When the old man suddenly passed away, the couple was dumbfounded. However, they were still very concerned and did not want to trust those professional managers, thinking that outsiders would definitely have ulterior motives.

Therefore, under the chaotic management of this couple, those old masters who stayed behind and truly helped them and were the veteran talents who were truly good for the company were driven out of the company for various reasons. Those who stayed behind were all parasites who tried every means to put money into their own pockets.

Gradually, the company became a shell. Yu Gaoyun had lost a lot of money in his previous business, and now he found that he didn't even have the money to compensate him!

"How is this possible!" Yu Jiangpeng's mother exclaimed in disbelief.

The two men started fighting and insulting each other in the office, regardless of their image.

Yu Xuecai's mother watched coldly at this person dressed in a way she didn't recognize at all. It wasn't until he started swearing like a madman that she suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.

Yu Gaoyun has never changed. He is still that selfish guy, but she has never noticed it.

In fact, in terms of time, Yu Jiangpeng's mother was the one who spent the most time with him and should have seen him most clearly.

Yu Xuecai's mother looked at the woman with some amusement, thinking she was as stupid as herself.

"Mom..." Yu Xuecai looked at his mother cautiously.

He didn't pay attention to his father who had "come back from the dead". To him, it would be better for him to be dead. At least his mother wouldn't be so heartbroken.

"Let's go." Yu Xuecai's mother closed her eyes and said as calmly as possible.

This woman had experienced the pain of losing her husband before her child was born. Afterwards, she took care of the family alone and became extremely strong.

The two bad guys scolded each other, which was boring to watch, so Qi Nian and Meng Zhaonan left.

Yu Jiangpeng's cry could still be heard from a distance: "Mom and Dad, please stop hitting me. It's so embarrassing!"

Well, he still knows how to be ashamed. When he bullies others, he is arrogant.

"That Yu Gaoyun is such a rubbish!" Meng Zhaonan seemed to be still immersed in his previous emotions, cursing angrily.

Meng Zhaonan: "That aunt is really too miserable."

It can be seen that Meng Zhaonan is a person with a strong sense of justice.

Qi Nian comforted Meng Zhaonan with a few words, and the two of them left the school and were about to drive back when they saw a mother and son waiting for the bus under a bus license plate from a distance.

After such a commotion just now, even if Yu Xuecai went back to class, he probably wouldn't be in the mood. Just now, the other person's head teacher advised him to go back and rest for half a day. He was indeed a little uneasy in his heart, so he agreed.

However, Yu Xuecai did not go back empty-handed. He was carrying a heavy school bag on his back, which made his thick school uniform dent and also made Yu Xuecai's shoulders a little bent.

From a distance, Yu's mother could still be heard saying to Yu Xuecai, "Xuecai, don't tell your grandmother about what just happened when you go back."

Yu Xuecai nodded. He knew that his grandmother was old and might not be able to withstand such stimulation.

The cold winter wind hurt his face. Qi Nian hesitated for a moment and walked over.

When Yu's mother saw him, she took the initiative to thank him: "Thank you, young man. I just heard from Xuecai that if it weren't for you, he would still be bullied."

Qi Nian shook his head embarrassedly.

Yu's mother looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect that this good-looking boy would smile so shyly.

Qi Nian: "It's not convenient to wait for the bus here, can I take you there?"

Yu's mother immediately waved her hands and refused: "No, no, this bus is just slow, it will be here in a while, why bother you. It's cold here, guys, please leave us alone."

"Auntie, it's okay! Isn't it just sending someone off? It will be quick. I don't know when the bus will arrive. Look, your son's face is almost chapped." Meng Zhaonan, who had already left, appeared out of nowhere. He obviously knew how to grasp the key points.

Sure enough, seeing her son's red face, Yu's mother did not refuse after all, and said embarrassedly: "Then I'll leave it to you."

So, Yu's mother followed Yu Xuecai into the car, Qi Nian sat in the passenger seat, and Meng Zhaonan drove his car.

However, he forgot that Meng Zhaonan was a racing driver.

The guy did a cool drift right from the start, and Qi Nian immediately grabbed the seat belt nervously.

Meng Zhaonan noticed his actions and laughed: "Don't worry, I drive safely!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another sharp turn.

Everyone thought: "..."

He had serious doubts about Meng Zhaonan's words. Is this really safe?!

Finally, the car stopped and Qi Nian got out with shaky steps. At the same time, he saw Yu's mother and Yu Xuecai getting out from the back with the same embarrassed expressions.

Meng Zhaonan looked at Yu's mother with concern: "Auntie, are you okay?"

Mother Yu smiled stubbornly: "Auntie, it's okay. Let Auntie vomit for a while."

Meng Zhaonan: “…”

After a while, Yu's mother rinsed her mouth and said with a smile, "I feel much better after vomiting."

Meng Zhaonan touched his nose embarrassedly.

Qi Nian and Meng Zhaonan originally planned to leave, but Yu's mother was unwilling to do so and persuaded the two to stay for dinner.

The two of them couldn't refuse Yu's mother's invitation to have dinner, so they stayed.

Mother Yu immediately went to the kitchen happily to cook, and the two of them talked to the elderly Grandma Yu.

The Yu family lives in an old tube-shaped building, and judging from the furnishings inside, it is also very old.

There were only two rooms in the house. Grandma Yu and Mother Yu slept in the master bedroom, while Yu Xuecai slept in a room with only a very small window.

Meng Zhaonan may have never seen such a house before. It is very crowded and the living room is only a small area. Moreover, the location of the Yu family is almost to the suburbs. The house here is not worth much even if it is sold.

Yu's mother worked alone to support the family, but Yu Xuecai was studying at No. 1 Middle School and could not leave this city with high consumption, so the family had a difficult life.

Qi Nian lived in an orphanage before traveling through time, and was used to the crowded living quarters.

"Eh? This small bowl?" Meng Zhaonan was suddenly attracted by a small bowl in the corner.

This bowl has dark patterns on it and looks old.

"Well, I've had this bowl since I got married. It just looks good, but it's not worth much." Grandma Yu waved her hands and said, "It's just placed there to make it look good."

"No way? Why does this look like an antique to me? I seem to have seen a photo of it from my grandfather." Meng Zhaonan said seriously.

Looking at his expression, he didn't even dare to touch the simple gray bowl.

Qi Nian looked curiously and asked, "Could it be an antique?"
