Goodbye, Mr. Mu

I forgot who said that...

When a speck of dust falls on a mortal, it becomes a mountain, an insurmountable mountain.

This mountain now stands in front of Mu Huaizhang, and it also stands in front of Chaifei, but Mu Huaizhang wants to face it directly, while Chaifei is still avoiding detours.

"Aren't you going home yet?"

Chai Fei answered the phone call from his father.

Over the years, the relationship between him and his stepfather has never been close, and there are only a few words that can be said throughout the year, which are nothing more than routine greetings.The few phone calls were instigated by his mother.

Of course, having said that, it's not that that person treated him badly, it's just that he couldn't accept an outsider at an age he could remember.What's more, it's an outsider who gave birth to a boy with his mother.

This kind of unacceptable, after a long time, the paranoia caused by the years has become a gap.

But because of a bit of upbringing in his paranoid personality, he still gets along peacefully with this person awkwardly.

"Yeah." He replied.

"Your mother said she won't live with you, you can move back."

"It's okay, let her live."

After saying this, the hatchback was silent again, until there was a "click" from the other side, which was the sound of a lighter igniting, which broke the silence.

The man said again: "Your mother recently fell in love with the daughter of the old Yuan's family. She works in the American Securities Company, and she studied management before..."

"I know. But I'm ambitious, and I'm afraid of delaying the girl." When Chai Fei talked to this man, it was very different from when Mu Huaizhang was around.

He pressed the ballpoint pen in his hand.

"I still like to be alone and free."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Chai Fei's mother's loud voice came from the other end of the phone, yelling and cursing.

"Freedom? Chai Fei, you are free. When I was young, I wanted to learn music, okay, I learned it, and when I grew up, I wanted to drive a motorcycle. Okay, let me do it, so you are not free?! I finally sent you to read a book, What is wrong with studying? If you want to study literature, do you let your mother let you?! I think it’s too much! A few years ago, I made a few friends. A bookstore that doesn’t make money, tell me you still need to be free?! How free do you want to be…”

Chai Fei took the phone away from the receiver, and waited for the silence to stop before speaking.

"Mom, I'm not the only one in this family. You know it, and I know it too. I don't need you to embarrass me, nor do I want you to embarrass me. "

"Do you think I'm embarrassing you?" Chai Fei frowned when he heard the questioning on the other end of the phone, and cried out inwardly.

Fortunately the phone was taken by his stepfather.

"Don't be mad at your mother, let's put this aside for now. You'll see me in a few days. Let's talk about it if you don't like it. Huh?" The peacemaker spoke, and Chai Fei had no choice but to go down the stairs.

"understood."

"It's more or less the same." The humming of Chai Fei's mother on the other end of the phone was clearly audible.

Chai Fei is not so complacent, he has already begun to think about how to explain the situation clearly to others when going through the motions.

It's just that he hadn't thought about this issue clearly at night, and he first received some calls from Mr. Mu.

"Hello, Mr. Mu?"

"En. Chai Fei..." Mu Huaizhang's voice was low and tired when he heard it in Chai Fei's ears.

This is a state that Mu Huaizhang seldom shows in front of him, even when he is out of the court, he never sees it like this.

Chai Fei immediately turned over and put the phone close to his ear, and said seriously: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay," Mu Huaizhang still said in a deep voice, but the weakness just now disappeared. Thinking about it now, it was more like Chai Fei's hallucination, "I just wanted to call you. What are you doing?"

Chai Fei glanced at the picture book "The Little Prince" on the bedside table, and lied: "I'm reading a book."

"Look at what?"

"See how to chat with roses in a small planet?"

"There is no need to chat, just leave him on my planet." Mu Huaizhang recalled seeing the picture book next to his bed at Chai Fei that day, and said, "I remember saying that, because he only has four Thorn to protect yourself."

Chai Fei said: "That's what I said in the back, but I'm looking at the front."

"What did you say earlier?" Mu Huaizhang asked.

"It says that flowers are always duplicity, but I'm too young to know how to love him." Chai Fei said something.

Mu Huaizhang understood, so he fell silent.

Chai Fei also found the answer to his temptation in his silence.He didn't go any further.

"I finished reading the bedtime story, I'm going to bed, Mr. Mu."

"Okay. You go to sleep."

"But there is one more thing I want to say."

"What?" Mu Huaizhang asked.

"Look up at the sky, there is always a star that is the little prince's little planet." Chai Fei laughed and looked out of the window.

"No need, isn't my little prince waiting for me on his little planet?" Mu Huaizhang asked back.

Chai Fei answered very firmly: "Yes. I am waiting."

"That is enough. Good night, my little prince."

Chai Fei pursed her lips and said softly, "Good night."

Chai Fei waited for Mu Huaizhang to hang up the phone before putting down the phone in satisfaction.
