Chapter 131 You Still Want to Leave
Lu Jiunian used this incident to rub salt into his wounds last time, stabbing him in the heart when he was at his lowest point.
"No, they're all alive and well. I just went to check on them. If you don't believe me, ask Aunt Zhang."
Lu Jiunian gave Zhang Sao a wink.
Aunt Zhang quickly chimed in, "Yes, Young Master Shi, Third Master didn't go far just now. He'll be back in a little while."
Of course, Aunt Zhang sincerely hoped that the two of them would be well.
Shi Nianzhi then asked with some doubt, "You really didn't go to see Gu Zijian?"
"No, Gu Zijian left a long time ago."
Shi Nianzhi said angrily, "If Gu Zijian comes to you, you are not allowed to pay any attention to him."
Lu Jiunian coaxed the sensitive Shi Nianzhi, wishing he could do whatever he wanted to him, "Okay."
"You are absolutely not allowed to help him."
"good."
Anyway, Shi Nianzhi didn't understand the ways of the business world, so Lu Jiunian felt that there was nothing wrong with coaxing Shi Nianzhi.
"Then I'll go check on those two chickens."
"It's so cold..."
Before Lu Jiunian could finish speaking, Shi Nianzhi raised her eyes and glared at him fiercely, "You've already stewed them! And taken them to Gu Zijian to nourish his body!"
In Shi Nianzhi's eyes, the more Lu Jiunian tried to stop him from seeing it, the more obvious it seemed.
The cold is just an excuse.
Lu Jiunian was lucky that he hadn't touched those two chickens before, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to explain it to Shi Nianzhi.
Seeing that Shi Nianzhi was like a hedgehog with all her quills raised, he had no choice but to compromise, "Put your clothes on, it's cold outside, I'll take you to see."
"Young Master Shi, I'll go get my clothes."
Aunt Zhang busied herself with various tasks, finally helping Shi Nianzhi put on a thick, long down jacket and then putting a scarf on him.
Shi Nianzhi tugged at it with her hand, clearly not wanting to be wrapped up like a rice dumpling.
Lu Jiunian took the scarf, saying, "It's dark and cold outside. You're not very healthy, so don't catch a cold. We only have two weeks of vacation, and you're going to be sick for a whole week? That won't do."
Shi Nianzhi thought it made sense, so he obediently let Lu Jiunian put the scarf on him.
It's very hot indoors, but when you step outside and a cold wind blows, that's when a scarf comes in handy.
It's getting colder and colder today, it looks like it's going to snow.
Shi Nianzhi held a flashlight and even stepped into the chicken coop. He squatted down and carefully shone the flashlight on his two chickens.
Lu Jiunian stood outside, somewhat displeased, "I went in specifically to check, and I really didn't eat your chicken."
Don't all chickens look the same? What's so interesting about them?
Shi Nianzhi looked at it carefully. He didn't know what his own abilities were. He couldn't tell if he had seen the question before, but he could recognize the chicken.
It was the same two he brought.
After Shi Nianzhi finished reading, he seemed relieved and went back to bed, where he fell asleep shortly afterward.
Lu Jiunian lay down beside Shi Nianzhi and reached out to hug her.
This time, I didn't leave.
......
Mu Guangcheng was so cold inside that he kept stamping his feet because he couldn't afford to pay the heating bill.
Taking a shower in this cold weather takes a lot of courage.
He took a shower, sniffling, rushed to the closet, grabbed two more quilts, and put them on the bed.
It was so cold, and he was so poor.
Looks like I'll have to do some part-time work this winter break.
Mu Guangcheng lay on the bed and took out his phone to check the time. It was 12 o'clock. What a lonely time.
His parents actually give him living expenses every month, since they don't have much else to give their son besides money.
Mu Guangcheng stubbornly refused to use those cold, hard coins.
Su Hengyi sent him several WeChat messages, the last one being a "goodnight".
It was too late for Mu Guangcheng to reply. He had been working very hard on his exam paper, trying his best.
He really wanted to grow up quickly so that he could have his own little world through his own abilities.
As if remembering something, Mu Guangcheng sat up and picked up his schoolbag from the bedside table.
Mu Guangcheng pulled out the plane ticket from inside, crumpled it into a ball, and casually threw it into the trash can.
I fell asleep and slept until 10 a.m. the next day.
My phone kept ringing like it was my life depended on it.
Mu Guangcheng picked it up and held it to his ear, his voice still sleepy, "Su Hengyi, can you please leave me a way out? It's the first day of my holiday, what, am I not allowed to sleep in for a while?"
"elder brother."
A child's voice is still developing and sounds very sweet and innocent.
Mu Guangcheng froze, instinctively about to hang up, when the other end started crying, "Brother, Dad is sick, he wants to see you."
Mu Guangcheng sat up in bed, his hand on his knee slightly clenched into a fist.
He has a younger brother, a half-brother, who is 12 years old.
But Mu Guangcheng had never met him, and he disdained to even want to get to know him. In Mu Guangcheng's eyes, he was just an illegitimate child.
"Who are you?"
Mu Guangcheng's voice was very cold.
“Brother, it’s me, Mu Yang. Dad really wants to see you. I gave you the plane ticket, you should have received it by now. Can you come and see Dad? Although Dad doesn’t allow us to go to see you, he’s lying in the intensive care unit, and he keeps calling your name.”
Mu Guangcheng closed his eyes, and after a long while, he asked, "What illness?"
"Brother, you'll see when you come. Dad misses you so much. Please, no matter what, come see him one last time. Please, I beg you."
Mu Yang pleaded desperately, then hung up the phone.
Mu Guangcheng's phone fell from his hand, and his heart suddenly ached.
The last time...
how so?
When he received the plane ticket, he thought the man was trying to humiliate him; he had no intention of going at all.
But the plane ticket was given by Mu Yang, who was seriously ill.
Mu Guangcheng was completely unaware of the situation, and he wanted to pretend that he was also unaware.
Mu Guangcheng took the test paper out of his schoolbag. He tried to distract himself, but he closed his eyes.
But his mind was filled with Mu Yang's words.
He lay in the intensive care unit, constantly calling your name.
'No matter what, come and see him one last time.'
Mu Guangcheng hates Mu Fa, as evidenced by the fact that Mu Fa has a 12-year-old illegitimate child. Mu Fa is the one who betrayed this marriage and this family.
Mu Guangcheng could not deny that Mu Fa had doted on him a lot when he was young.
He had everything that other children had, and even more that he, coming from a well-off family, possessed.
Mu Fa had always given Mu Guangcheng a lot, but later on, Mu Guangcheng destroyed it all himself; he no longer wanted this fatherly love.
He used the sting of Mufa's rebellion to retaliate against Mufa's abandonment.
The confrontation between the son and father pushed this originally warm father-son relationship to the brink of utter ruin.
Mu Guangcheng took several deep breaths before getting up and retrieving the plane ticket from the trash can. Without thinking, he put on his clothes, grabbed his phone, bank card, and ID, opened the door, and ran away.
He didn't even have time to calmly consider why the plane ticket was for 2 PM and why Mu Yang called earlier or later.
They called at just the right time.
It was as if Mu Guangcheng was given no extra time to think things through before he had to board this flight.
Su Hengyi waited until 11 o'clock before coming to find Mu Guangcheng, thinking that he wanted Mu Guangcheng to get some sleep.
But no one answered the door after knocking for a long time.
Su Hengyi called Mu Guangcheng.
The call was answered, and upon hearing Mu Guangcheng's voice, Su Hengyi felt a little relieved. "Where are you?"
Mu Guangcheng sat in a taxi on his way to the airport.
He thought of the unfamiliar text message from last night.
"Do you know a secret about Su Hengyi? The fortune teller said that before he turns 20, he will face a life-or-death crisis and must not leave the country, otherwise he will die, he really will die. Mu Guangcheng, I don't care where you go, you are not allowed to take Su Hengyi with you."
When Mu Guangcheng received it yesterday, he thought it was a prank by that boring Gu Yuanyuan.
Today, he sat in his car, his heart pounding with anxiety, but his mind was filled with that text message.
Mu Guangcheng tried to keep his voice calm, "Big Pig asked me to come to his house for dinner, and you were at my door?"
"Hmm, when are you coming back?"
"I don't know, I might stay at his place for a couple of days. I'll call you when I get back. Even though we're dating, you shouldn't be so clingy. Let's keep some distance. Hmm, what's that saying again? Absence makes the heart grow fonder!"
Mu Guangcheng tried his best to make his tone relaxed, and he even smiled deliberately.
"So where will you sleep tonight?"
Mu Guangcheng paused, and to avoid making Su Hengyi suspicious, he even made a joke.
"Me? Of course I slept with Big Pig. We're two grown men, what's wrong with that?"
"no."
"Are you suggesting I sleep on the floor? It's so cold, that's not a good idea, is it?"
Send me your address, I'll come find you.
"Look at you, can't you even take a joke? Alright, don't worry, I won't sleep in the same bed with him. I always remember I have a boyfriend. Okay, I'll sleep in the study, are you satisfied now?"
Su Hengyi's voice suddenly turned deep, "Mu Guangcheng."
Mu Guangcheng's heart skipped a beat, and even his right eyelid twitched, but he quickly regained his composure. "Be good, when I get back, your brother will come looking for you right away."
Su Hengyi's calm voice said, "You only talk to me so much when you feel guilty."
"You noticed that? Oh dear, I really shouldn't have put my arm around that big pig. Okay, okay, I'll let go of him, alright?"
Which airport?
"Which airport?"
"Do you want me to investigate?"
"Hello? Hello? The signal is bad, I'll hang up now!"
Su Hengyi discovered it so quickly. He thought he had covered his tracks perfectly, but he was probably discovered the moment he opened his mouth.
Having a boyfriend with a high IQ can also be a headache.
Mu Guangcheng quickly hung up, a thin layer of cold sweat forming on his forehead.
Su Hengyi is too clever and not easy to fool. Right now, the only option is to turn off the phone.
With four airports in the capital, covering all directions, he simply didn't believe that Su Hengyi, a scrap collector, could find him!
