Chapter 985 - 984:
Chu Fenglei raised an eyebrow and glanced at Luo Yirui. This kid looks like he’s behaving, but in actuality, he’s clever and mischievous, with plenty of ideas!Though he knows the little guy’s thoughts don’t align with his words, Chu Fenglei likes him more and more. He has opinions, thoughts, and practical ability. If his spirit passes the test, there wouldn’t be any problem introducing him to his school of thought!
He can even foresee a future where a genius emerges.
Seeing Chu Fenglei staring at him, Luo Yirui grinned widely, showing his neat white teeth, and secretly thought he might have some other motive.
"When is Qingyu coming?" Chu Fenglei asked.
Sun Bingyang said, "They say tomorrow afternoon. I reckon he’s interested in this illness; otherwise, he wouldn’t show up at this juncture."
Of course, he speculates that Beisitian might come because Hao Meili got involved with those people tied to the ones who kidnapped her son. Otherwise, how would she have the mind to do this with her son missing?
Many people have this speculation, including the Iron Triangle.
However, Chu Fenglei thinks differently. He believes Beisitian must already know about Luo Yirui’s presence here. Knowing this, he won’t dare keep it from the mom, lest they run out of instant noodles at home.
What a pity. If he had realized earlier and handed Luo Yirui to Beisitian, he surely would have gained her gratitude, making it easier to ask for her help.
The Child of Qingyu is indeed exceptionally smart.
While mentioning Beisitian, Chu Fenglei paid special attention to Luo Yirui’s reaction. He noticed Luo Yirui slightly lowered his head and drooped his eyelids, appearing unfazed, but he must be truly excited inside. So young and already able to conceal and control his emotions—this child can indeed be called a prodigy.
No wonder there’s a rumor outside that the Child of Qingyu can achieve the Spiritual Talisman. This child is exceptional.
As Chu Fenglei thought about this, he found himself valuing him more and more.
This kid mustn’t be discovered by Gu Haiqing; otherwise, Yunhai would certainly compete with them. But with Gu Haiqing’s blind eye, he can’t see what’s special about this child, especially since Gu Haiqing was the one who brought him to the party initially.
Thinking about the conflicted expression Gu Haiqing would have, Chu Fenglei felt invigorated and motivated.
Upon knowing he could go to the meeting, Luo Yirui felt restless internally and seemed calm in front of others but started pacing around once back in his room.
Jing Changle sat on the bed, speechless, watching Luo Yirui spin around endlessly. He assumed Luo Yirui was too distracted to teach him, so he took out a small bead to ’check it out’ by himself.
Every time this small bead glows, he can see that pretty aunt. Jing Changle often wonders if she might be his mom?
He actually yearns for it, at least wanting to know what his mom looks like...
Though the mom inside the bead consistently practices the Spiritual Talisman, it’s unclear whether it’s related to Jing Changle’s spirit, and it’s not very clear—not as clear as the first appearance—so unless Luo Yirui is in this state, he generally follows Luo Yirui to learn.
Jing Changle glanced up at the still pacing Luo Yirui and asked, "Will you recognize the aunt when you go?"
Luo Yirui halted, shoulders drooping, "I won’t recognize her then; how can I proceed with the plan? I’ve agreed with dad, we must catch those bad guys!"
"What if the aunt recognizes you?" Jing Changle asked again.
Luo Yirui tilted his head, lost in thought. Right, if his mom recognizes him, what would he do? Recognize her right away?
If so, wouldn’t those people capture his mom along too!
Thinking of this, Luo Yirui stopped pacing, quickly opened the small box dad gave him, took out partial skin, ran to the restroom, and started comparing in front of the mirror.
At first, Jing Changle found it intriguing watching him apply it like a mask, but then he lost interest, realizing how careful one must be with face washing—not too much water—it’s quite troublesome.
But speaking of this, Luo Yirui’s dad is amazing. Would he ever have a dad like that? Probably not, or else his mom wouldn’t have roamed to a deserted place to give birth alone.
As the saying goes, children of poor parents grow up quickly. He’s inherently more thoughtful, and mingling with a child like Luo Yirui, his thoughts far surpass those of his peers. Even things teenagers hardly think of, he’d contemplate.
Casting aside these complicated thoughts, Jing Changle immersed himself in studies, striving to close the discernment gap between him and Luo Yirui; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to play together later.
Luo Yirui finally adhered the local skin, still feeling uneasy, exited the restroom, and asked Jing Changle, "Jing Changle, look at me now. Does mom recognize me?"
Jing Changle glanced up and was suddenly startled, nearly dropping the small bead.
He looked at Luo Yirui with a face filled with terror and said, "Did a pig run into you! Why does your left cheek protrude, and your chin... diamond-shaped? Don’t come near!"
Luo Yirui: "..." Is it really that bad?
With a blank expression, he returned to the restroom, looked at himself in the mirror, and indeed noticed some issues; the left side was affixed too high, and for the chin... perhaps a layer had been added without adhering correctly inside.
Rushed it...
Jing Changle shook, his small heart nearly leaping out. If not for Luo Yirui’s voice while walking out, he would have mistaken a zombie for emerging—the stiff expression aside, it’s utterly terrifying!
Finally, the next afternoon arrived, and Jing Changle felt he could finally escape the neurotic Luo Yirui. Hopefully, seeing the aunt would bring him back to normal...
Luo Yirui didn’t affix excessive local skin. He realized if he didn’t apply according to dad’s instructions, the result would be tragic. What if he scared mom...
After lunch, Luo Yirui waited early in the living room, and before long, the Iron Triangle and Sun Bingyang came downstairs, followed by Chu Fenglei.
Currently, the Hao Family consists only of these five individuals.
Hao Rong’s eyes were red; he wanted to go too, but dad forbade him. Crying proved futile, leaving him envious, jealous, and hateful toward Luo Yirui.
Just as he thought this, a servant walked in and said to Hao Jiacheng, "Master, Young Master Zhan is here!"
Young Master Zhan? Zhan Hongjun!
Upon hearing this name, Luo Yirui instinctively stepped back. Zhan Hongjun has seen him quite a bit; he worries about being recognized by Zhan Hongjun...
