Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 246 - 235: Half a Son

Chen Zilong was completely dumbfounded.

Shuixian spoke up, "So, he’s your Schrodinger’s brother-in-law."

Yu Minglang was using Schrodinger’s cat quantum mechanics thinking to bluff, oh no, to explain.

In this world, academic achievers always have a lot of criticisms for academic underachievers, like right now...

"Who is Schrodinger?" Jia Xiufang had listened for a while and only heard this name, understood nothing else.

Yu Minglang smiled and explained, "Schrodinger is an Austrian physicist, a foundational figure in quantum mechanics."

"So, you guys are tutoring Dalong on his studies?" Jia Xiufang felt dizzy hearing this.

Qian and Yu Minglang exchanged a playful glance.

It’s not so much tutoring as actually messing with Chen Zilong.

Jia Xiufang patted the already dizzy Chen Zilong, "Look at you, knowing nothing, only knowing how to eat!"

"They’re talking about obscure theories, I always feel like I’m being fooled..." The world of underachievers is chaotic now.

"Don’t talk nonsense, your sister and Lang, and Xian’er, all know this what-whatever crocodile physicist, even know he raises cats, how come you don’t!"

"It’s so unfair..." Chen Zilong muttered.

"How dare you complain! Go back to your room and do your homework!" Jia Xiufang slapped Chen Zilong, then turned and smiled at Yu Minglang warmly.

"Minglang, have you had dinner?"

"Not yet, Auntie!" Yu Minglang called out enthusiastically.

"Then wait, I’ll heat up some food for you."

"You sure treat yourself like family." Qian glanced at Yu Minglang.

Yu Minglang said earnestly, "Do I have to pretend here, right Auntie?"

"Oh, I just like this unpretentious person. Wait a moment, it’ll be ready soon." Jia Xiufang smiled brightly.

Mother-in-law looking at son-in-law, the more she looks, the more satisfied she is.

"Mom, why don’t you fry some meat, I’m hungry too." Chen Zilong said, looking pleading.

Jia Xiufang slapped him on the head, "You eat as much as you want but don’t grow any brains, what are you eating for, didn’t you eat with your rascally friends outside? Go figure out the scientist who raises cats first before you eat!"

Chen Zilong pouted as he walked out, "Mom, you’re so biased, he isn’t your son-in-law yet, even if he really marries my sister, he’s still just a half-son, whereas I am a whole son!"

"You’re an incomplete son, still not as good as Minglang who’s half, go do your homework!"

"I don’t even know... what to write, I’ll go watch TV, they’re showing ’The Four Scholars.’ I’ll go watch." Chen Zilong was about to leave when Jia Xiufang dragged him back.

"If you don’t do your homework, I’ll make you ’The Four Clumsy Bears.’ Qian’er, help out your brother."

"I don’t want her tutoring, she always hits me!" Chen Zilong protested.

Yu Minglang said gently, "Auntie, I’m free, I’ll teach Dalong."

"That’s okay, you go tutor, I’ll make you dinner." Jia Xiufang glared fiercely at Chen Zilong, "Learn well from Lang! Honestly, I don’t know how I bore you, your sister always ranks among the top in her grade, and Lang was the top scorer in the college entrance exam, why with you it’s the opposite..."

"Lang isn’t borne by you... Besides, I haven’t complained about you giving all the good genes to my sister."

"Even if not borne by me, my girl chooses him, shows she has good taste! Stop your nonsense!"

Yu Minglang laughed innocently, "Yes, Auntie makes a good point, come on Dalong, let’s go to your room."

Chen Zilong glanced at the fierce Qian, then at the well-behaved Yu Minglang, decided he’d rather have Lang teach him, somehow Lang seemed gentler... right?

Based on Yu Minglang’s current performance, he seems flawless and exemplary, but Teng Shuixian, who witnessed how Yu Minglang collaborated with Qian on their mischief, felt a bit conflicted.

When Yu Minglang brought Chen Zilong to his room, Teng Shuixian asked Qian.

"Is he split personality or something?"

"The mischievous him and the serious him coexist, once you interact, another him collapses, so what you see is only the Yu Minglang in your eyes, but the real Yu Minglang is two states simultaneously." Qian explained matter-of-factly.

"I get it, he’s Schrodinger’s Yu Minglang!"

"Yes, parallel space, both of him coexist."

The two academic achievers exchanged a glance and laughed simultaneously.

Chen Zilong brought Yu Minglang into his room, and as soon as Yu Minglang entered, his eyebrows lifted.

The room was much bigger than his Qianbao’s, but it was actually so... dirty?

The blankets on the bed weren’t folded, trash was scattered everywhere, the desk was a mess with what appeared to be a thick layer of dust, a piece of dried instant noodle stuck to the dusty desk.

Compared to his Qianbao’s room, it was like heaven and earth.

Chen Zilong wasn’t aware of how filthy and messy it was, smiled awkwardly at Yu Minglang, "Lang, I have comic books here, want to read?"

"Aren’t we here to study?"

"Nah, the stuff those women talk about, we guys shouldn’t listen, right, Lang, my soon-to-be brother-in-law?"

Chen Zilong flattered Yu Minglang to the extreme.

"Don’t want to study? Fine, then the future brother-in-law will demonstrate what housekeeping is."

Yu Minglang stepped to Chen Zilong’s bed, reached out to grab the blanket, was about to fold it when the hidden smelly socks and dirty underwear all spilled out.

"Good housekeeping greatly aids character development. Bedclothes should be square and neat!" Yu Minglang folded the blanket as if he didn’t see Chen Zilong’s embarrassed expression.

Chen Zilong watched from the side, face almost volcanic, tried to snatch it but couldn’t outdo Yu Minglang, could only watch helplessly as Yu Minglang quickly folded the blanket, exposing all the messy secrets of a slovenly boy.

"Next, I’ll demonstrate wardrobes and under-bed cleaning—" Yu Minglang pretended to move toward the bed.

Under Chen Zilong’s bed were things best not seen, if the wardrobe were opened, the dirt might smother someone, he couldn’t possibly let Yu Minglang proceed, and hurriedly begged.

"Please, Lang, I surrender, study, study okay?"

Yu Minglang gestured to the desk, Chen Zilong quickly picked up the change of underpants from the bed and used them to wipe the dust off the desk, gesturing invitingly, Yu Minglang tapped the desk.

"Bring your textbook here."

"Textbook, oh, wait a moment."

Chen Zilong started digging around for his textbooks, he never took his bag to school, went just to fool around, teachers didn’t bother with him, a thorough troublemaker.

As for textbooks, they were long lost.

"Well, Lang, all I can find is the language book, is that okay?"

Yu Minglang glanced over, "Your sister will teach you language."

"She always hits me, I don’t want her teaching."

"Oh? How does she hit you?"
