Chapter 288: Honesty and Fakeness



Cheng Shi was happy when he saw the brand new banknotes on the table.

"Old man, where did you get the money?"

Lao Jia scratched his foot and said disdainfully, "What? You look down on your father? I saved this money all my life to support your schooling. Put it away and buy a ticket."

He looked tough and didn't seem like he was lying.

But Cheng Shi knew that this was not the money he had saved, because the money had a fragrance, the fragrance of Aunt Sun's house next door.

But he didn't explain the whole process, he just took the money and nodded.

Then, Cheng Shi took Lao Jia to his own university. After sending Cheng Shi into the school gate, Lao Jia left, and Cheng Shi began his wonderful university life alone.

Perhaps college life is indeed wonderful for Cheng Shi, at least ten thousand times more wonderful than life in the urban village, but for the Dream Peeping Ranger, these college days filled with endless male hormones are extremely boring.

Although the night in the Forest of Sighs was only halfway through, and there was still plenty of time to watch this dream influenced by [memory], Jiang Wumei really couldn't stand this boredom, so he decided to change his perspective.

From observing Cheng Shi to observing his father who seemed quite interesting.

But the protagonist of this dream is Cheng Shi. Following Cheng Shi's perspective does not require the Dream Peeping Ranger to pay any price, because this is a gift from his benefactor to the Dream Peeping Ranger. But if he wants to switch to another "channel", he will have to pay something.

For example, taking risks.

When using his talent to explore deeper dreams, Jiang Wumei can no longer remain unnoticed like a ghost in the dream. He must have a physical body to move freely and witness other memories that Cheng Shi has never seen.

However, the entity will be discovered. Once the dreamer is awakened and the other party is aware of his existence, the biggest risk he faces is how the "creator" of this dream world will deal with him.

Normally, after seeing enough fun, he wouldn't choose to take risks, but he was too curious today. He always felt that Cheng Shi's father was not as... honest as he seemed.

So after "accompanying" Cheng Shi for a semester, Jiang Wumei decisively chose to abandon Cheng Shi's perspective, activate his own talents, and turn himself into a passer-by in this dream.

He traced back his memory and went back to the past, back to the time when little Cheng Shi had not yet been adopted.

There, outside the gate of the orphanage, he saw little Cheng Shi running on the playground through the fence of the outer wall, but he also saw another person, a person for whom he had activated his talent to trace back.

Old Jia.

The father, who had been reserved all his life, was standing at the corner of the outer wall at this moment, leaning his head out and staring happily at the little Cheng Shi inside the wall.

Jiang Wumei's interest finally came back. He pretended to be a passerby and passed by Lao Jia. Then he heard Lao Jia constantly exclaiming:

"Good seedling, good seedling, please don't let it grow crooked. Oh, it would be great if it were my son. Unfortunately, the virtues of my ancestors for eighteen generations have been lost to me. I don't have this blessing."

Jiang Wumei raised his eyebrows, his eyes shining.

Sure enough, there is something wrong with this old man.

He began to follow the man.

It is extremely easy for a ranger blessed by [Memory] to track an old man before the advent of the Faith Game without leaving a trace.

He soon discovered that Lao Jia was very interested in little Cheng Shi from the orphanage. He passed by the orphanage more than once while doing odd jobs, and he would be happy for half a day every time he saw little Cheng Shi, but he knew that he was not qualified to adopt this so-called good seedling.

Until one day, when he was chatting with people on the street, he heard that the director of the orphanage wanted to find someone to send a naughty child away from the orphanage. He asked which old bachelor had no children and that the matter could be done as long as he gave money.

Lao Jia originally scoffed at this, but when he heard that the child's name was Xiao Shi, he immediately became anxious.

"Damn it! Such a good child was ruined by these bastards."

He returned home in a hurry, took out a wad of money from under the shiny black quilt, and ran to the orphanage in a hurry. Just before the other old bachelor could talk to the director, he intercepted Xiao Chengshi.

The old bachelor brought 2,000 yuan with him, and was unwilling to give up after being robbed, so he said he would give another 500 yuan. Old A gritted his teeth and gave 3,000 yuan.

This was all his savings, really, not a penny more.

Then little Cheng Shi was photographed and became Lao Jia's son.

As for the 3,000 yuan given by Lao Jia, the dean stuffed it into the cleavage of the hostess that night.

No one knows who is happier, the dean or the hostess, but at least Mr. Jia is happy.

He returned home with Xiao Chengshi happily. The shirt and trousers he was wearing were borrowed from the woman named Sun next door. When he returned them, the woman looked at him with disdain and refused to take them back.

But Jiang Wumei realized that the clothes were not thrown away, but given to him by a wealthy woman named Sun.

On the first day back home, Xiao Chengshi started pretending to sleep. Lao Jia didn't expose him and just walked out of the door. He didn't walk far but squatted on the curb at the door and smoked.

The wealthy woman surnamed Sun from next door stood behind him and asked him, "Why do you suddenly want a son?"

He smacked his lips and said, "This is a good breed, like me."

After saying that, he put out the cigarette.

"I can't smoke anymore since I have a son. This is my last one. I need to save money for my child's schooling."

The woman surnamed Sun stared at him blankly for a long time, then laughed and said, "I have been persuading you to quit smoking for your whole life, but in the end you ended up bringing back a child."
