Xueba, don't look at me, look at the question!

Mu Nanyu's reply jumped on the phone screen, Bai Jingtan supported the table with both hands, the water droplets from the broken hair on his forehead dripped onto the phone along the line of his jaw, instantly blurring the words.

He seemed to be able to imagine the boy on the other end of the phone typing and replying to him with a bright smile. A fleeting smile appeared on the corner of Bai Jingtan's lips, but it quickly faded away.

Bai Jingtan slowly wiped off the water droplets on the phone screen with his fingertips, and cut to the album interface.

In addition to the subdivided study materials, photos of Mu Nanyu, group photos of classmates, there are also a few new photos taken today.

It was the scene before Mu Nanyu entered the car at the school gate.

The window of the driver's seat was rolled down halfway, a middle-aged man with a slightly fat face and a warm smile, but with a businessman's shrewdness and a faint haze of prey in his brows, was holding a cigarette and puffing.

Bai Jingtan's eyes lingered on this photo for a long time, his fingernails propped on the table were touching the table, the skin on the back of his hand was turning blue.

He was right.

Confirmed again and again, still nothing wrong.

Although this person's face has changed a lot from ten years ago, and is much older, but the facial features and brows are clearly similar, especially the eyes that inadvertently reveal hostility, which are exactly the same as in his memory.

In the year when he lost his parents overnight, he woke up in the hospital bed and repeatedly asked his grandmother about his parents.

Later, I secretly went to the police station to inquire, and asked for a photo of the bridge construction contractor.

The person who bought substandard building materials produced by private workshops for profit, which caused his parents to die unexpectedly.

They only gave them hundreds of thousands of compensation, but transferred millions of dollars to the person who took the blame for him, so as to avoid the person who was held accountable by the law.

Now he can still drive a sports car, run a company - and even be his boyfriend's biological father.

Bai Jingtan's extremely well-controlled expression cracked for a moment. The light in the dormitory was very bright, but his brows and eyes were covered with a dark shadow, and he was terribly cold again in an instant.

Why...is this happening?

Cheerful music was played in the living room, and several cars drove in from the yard outside. It was the arrival of those so-called relatives.

Mu Nanyu wanted to go back to school to accompany her boyfriend, and just wanted to finish the birthday process quickly, so when Zhao Liang asked him to go to meet the guests together, he didn't refuse.

"Come here, Nanyu, this is your second uncle, this is your third aunt, that is your cousin, and that is your uncle..."

At first, those who came were relatively close relatives, and then all the distant relatives who were far away came.

Mu Nanyu forced himself to be a marionette, so he stood beside Zhao Liang and nodded, but didn't call anyone.

"Hey, Ah Liang, your son is back? This is the one you gave birth to with your ex-wife? Why didn't you bring it home earlier?"

"Yeah, Ah Liang, how can you let your son live in someone else's house? It's time to bring him back!"

"Your name is Nanyu, right? Which university do you study in? Your father said that your grades are good, and you want to go abroad in the future?"

Mu Nanyu put on a wooden face: "The grades are not good, so I won't go abroad."

Zhao Liang immediately took over the conversation with a smile, and gave him a warning look: "The child is rebellious and talks nonsense. He is studying at Nanyang University and has good grades. He must go abroad!"

"Nanyang University! It's a prestigious university! Ah Liang, your son is really promising—"

Several relatives immediately surrounded him and praised him.

"Ah Liang is better educated."

"What's this called? It's called Tiger Father No Dog Son!"

Zhao Liang was so praised that he couldn't hide his complacency on his face, he patted Mu Nanyu on the shoulder and waved his hands pretending to be modest.

"It's okay, it's okay, in fact, you don't have to study well to do business. You see, I came out to enter the society after graduating from junior high school. I don't know if this kid is the material for doing business."

"Don't worry, your son must be doing better than you!"

"Okay, okay, it's hard work for everyone to come here for this kid's birthday, that—the Michelin-starred dishes have arrived, I'll let them all bring them in."

"That wine, you can drink whatever you want, there's plenty of it, and the cake you ordered will come soon, after eating here, please go to the KTV to sing!"

Mu Nanyu's expression changed: "I won't go to KTV, I'm in a hurry to go back to school."

"You kid, you have such a birthday once a year, why are you in a hurry to go back to school?"

"There's an exam." Mu Nanyu snorted softly with a half-smile, "If you fail—"

Zhao Liang glanced at the guests in embarrassment, and had no choice but to say.

"That's okay, that's okay, dad will send you back to school after dinner - this kid just loves to study, there's nothing he can do, he said he wanted to review today and refused to come back with me!"

After the voice fell, it attracted a lot of envious eyes.

Zhao Liang was born in a rural area, or in the mountainous area. Many people there have a very feudal mindset.

No matter how much money there is, it is meaningless if no one inherits it. After finally getting my son back, it is naturally impossible to let go no matter what.

Mu Nanyu sat at a table with a few uncles whom he had just met for the first time. Just after eating a few mouthfuls of food, those people started smoking and punching.

He has always disliked the smell of smoke, so he immediately lowered the corners of his eyes in displeasure.

Gee.

I have to bear it, and finish the meal in a calm and peaceful manner, so I can go back to school to accompany Bai Jingtan.

Mu Nanyu lowered his head and meditated to cook rice, and occasionally picked up a piece of meat. After barely filling his stomach, he found an excuse to leave the dining table, went to the sofa and sat down. The smell of cigarettes in the room finally dissipated under the wind.

Anyway, Zhao Liang was just bragging to get the limelight there, no one cared whether he opened his mouth or not.

The sound of punching and ordering and loud chatter and laughter mixed with pop music rang in the living room.

Mu Nanyu's extremely sensitive ears, which had been trained in English listening, were shaken uncomfortably.

He couldn't help but look at the time, thinking that it would be another hour at most, and if the group of people hadn't finished eating, he would hurry back on the grounds of the exam.

There were two loud "bang bang" slaps on the table, and the noisy environment suddenly became quiet.

Mu Nanyu raised his eyelids, and saw that Zhao Liang had stood up at some point, had drunk a lot of wine, and his cheeks were flushed.

"Today, by giving my son the opportunity to celebrate his birthday, I'm also announcing one thing - the land in the suburbs of our Nanyang City is in a very good location. I plan to use it to develop it into a tourist resort. It must be very profitable!"

Some quick-witted people responded immediately.

"Ah Liang, then who do you plan to call in charge of this project?"

"That's right, Ah Liang, you always need a construction team to build a mountain villa, look at your third brother—"

Zhao Liang smiled smugly, and suddenly looked at Mu Nanyu.

"Don't worry, I'm going to investigate that area first, Nanyu, it's time for you to learn something, and you will come with me when the time comes!"
