The Perfect Destiny Chapter 44

The Adventures of Baby Guo [5]

This matter of meeting with Li Yaoyao seemed to be only an insignificant episode of life.

The fright Li Yaoyao received was not light and on that very afternoon, she left the country and didn't contact the Lu family again.

On the way home, Lu Zhiyang asked, "What did your mother say to Jianjian?"

Chen Liguo blinked and said with distress, "Mom said that I should go abroad with her."

Lu Zhiyang said, "Oh? Then does Jianjian want to go?"

Chen Liguo turned over and grasped Lu Zhiyang's arms, acting like a spoiled child, "Jianjian doesn't want to go anywhere. Jianjian wants to be with Dad."

Lu Zhiyang narrowed his eyes, showing a gentle smile as he reached over and rubbed Chen Liguo's head.

Chen Liguo had thought that this matter would be settled like this.

Evidently, Chen Liguo didn't understand this cheap father of his enough and had thought that this matter of him not being his biological son wouldn't be exposed until he reached adulthood. However, he had not expected that this matter of Li Yaoyao returning to China would turn into an irreversible mistake for Lu Zhiyang had already begun to be suspicious.

Why did Li Yaoyao, who had already been a free and unfettered woman and had already started her new life suddenly want Chen Liguo's custody back?

Lu Zhiyang did not believe that this was a simple matter of love between mother and child and thus, began to investigate.

When the results of the investigation were placed before Lu Zhiyang, he noticed a man in the data—this man is Li Yaoyao's current husband.

It had to be said, men had a special sense for such things. After reading the investigation, an unlikely guess suddenly emerged in Lu Zhiyang's mind. The guess made his heart sink and after some hesitation, Lu Zhiyang finally picked up the phone and called the hospital.

Li Yaoyao had already left for several months now and nothing had been exposed during this time and so Chen Liguo's worried heart calmed down.

This day just happened to be Yuan Ange's birthday and Chen Liguo received an invitation.

As per usual, he agreed with Lu Zhiyang that he would definitely come back before ten o'clock in the evening.

Yuan Ange and Lu Meiqing had already established their relationship and even has a KISS in front of their friends during the birthday party.

Chen Liguo watched from the side and silently wiped his tears in his heart.

Yuan Ange didn't have a family as strict as Chen Liguo's and so when Chen Liguo proposed that it was time to leave, everyone was still having a blast playing. Chen Liguo saw that it was already more than nine o'clock and told Yuan Ange that he had to go home.

Yuan Ange heard this and couldn't help but say, “Your father controls you way too strictly.”

Chen Liguo smiled and said, "Mmm, my health is in poor conditions, my Dad is worried about me."

Yuan Ange knew that Chen Liguo had a heart disease. Although it had never attacked during school, Chen Liguo's body was thinner than the average person. Even his skin was whiter.

He had wanted to urge him to stay, but then without knowing why, suddenly recalled those two eyes of Lu Zhiyang's and the words that he had originally wanted to say turned into: "Then pay attention to your safety."

Chen Liguo nodded, "You guys play. I'll be leaving first." After he said this, he left.

The household driver had been waiting outside the entire time. Seeing Chen Liguo come out, he asked, "Is little master going home directly?"

Chen Liguo nodded, "Mhmm."

The drive home took more than twenty minutes. Chen Liguo was a little sleepy when he got home. He let out a yawn and slowly got out of the car.

As a result, as soon as he opened the door, he felt that something was wrong. The lights in the living room were on, but there was no one in the living room.

Lu Zhiyang was absent, the housekeeper was absent, and even the servants were usually wandering around on weekdays has disappeared.

Chen Liguo felt a little timid and asked the system, "Toner-er, there aren't any magical elements in this world are there?"

The system said coldly, "He who never wrongs others does not fear the knock in the night."

Chen Liguo: "……" His system, really is an enthusiast about integrity.

Chen Liguo's hair stood on end. Then he saw the housekeeper come out of the kitchen. When the housekeeper saw that he had returned, he said in a small voice, "Little master, what trouble did you cause?"

Chen Liguo saw the housekeeper and let out a sigh of relief, "What happened?"

The housekeeper said, "The master was furious when he came home today." He spoke up to here and then pointed at the corner of the room.

Chen Liguo looked over and found that there was a large stain of the corner, it looked like stains left over from thrown food.

The housekeeper sighed, "The master had tossed the midnight snack prepared for you."

Chen Liguo: "……" He quickly examined his own errors in his mind but couldn't find out what it was that he had done recently that could make Lu Zhiyang this angry.

The housekeeper said, "The master has told all the servants to leave and is now alone in the study……"

Chen Liguo nodded and said, "Then I'll go take a look."

The housekeeper was a little worried but didn't stop Chen Liguo. There was no other way, who made his family's little master the one who could best appease Lu Zhiyang's mood?

When Chen Liguo went upstairs, he felt a little uneasy. As he approached the study, this uneasy feeling became stronger.

Chen Liguo knocked on the door and called out quietly, "Dad."

There was no movement inside.

Chen Liguo tried the handle of the door found the door had been locked from the inside. He said, "Dad, I've come back."

The was still no response.

The uneasiness in Chen Liguo's heart rose to the extreme. He made a quick decision and turned to leave. He said to the system, "I'll come back tomorrow, I have a really bad feeling right now."

System: "How bad?"

Chen Liguo: "I feel as though I'm the protagonist of a horror movie right now. Do you know why the protagonists of horror movies don't live long?"

The system said, "Why?"

Chen Liguo said, "Because they aren't as smart as I am."

System: "……" You're talking nonsense!

However, as soon as Chen Liguo had turned around, the door of the study creaked open. Chen Liguo felt all his pores open, his body somewhat stiff. Fortunately, Lu Zhiyang's voice sounded in time, letting Chen Liguo know that he was not yet the protagonist of a horror film.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Come here."

No name, cold tone. There wasn't the slightest bit of gentleness that there usually was when Lu Zhiyang called Chen Liguo.

Chen Liguo immediately thought of a certain possibility and cried out, "Tongtong, if someone had made you worn the green hat, how would you deal with the child?"

The system said, "If that child is you, then I would choose to chop them into pieces."

Chen Liguo: "……You're so cruel."

System: "Thank you."

Chen Liguo who lost Lu Zhiyang's love lost the love of his family's system.

Lu Zhiyang entered the study room with Chen Liguo and smoothly closed the door behind them.

Chen Liguo said with a pitiful expression, "Dad, are you angry?"

Lu Zhiyang didn't utter a single sound, his eyes unceasingly sizing up Chen Liguo coldly as if appraising the value of a lifeless object.

Chen Liguo's wailed with 'waa waa's in his heart, morning his lost love, but on his face was still that somewhat uncertain expression as he called again, "Dad."

Lu Zhiyang said coldly, "Don't call me Dad."

Chen Liguo: "……" This sentence basically settled it. He knew that he wasn't his biological son. Heavens, according to Lu Zhiyang's character, would he be dumped into cement and then thrown into the sea?

"Dad." Chen Liguo heard this sentence and his face paled. He said anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Lu Zhiyang said indifferently, "Get out."

Chen Liguo still wanted to speak, but Lu Zhiyang threw the investigation report in his hands at him. H

The hard folder hit Chen Liguo's forehead and fell apart. is eyes turned red at once and he said, "Dad, why?"

Lu Zhiyang said, "Take a look for yourself."

Chen Liguo bent down and picked up the scattered sheets with shaky hands. However, when he saw the information on the report, his face lost the last bit of blood that it had.

'Wahhh' cried Chen Liguo. He clutched the DNA certification in his hands and broke down, saying, "Dad, Dad, this can't be true——don't not want me."

Seeing Chen Liguo like this, Lu Zhiyang reflexively wanted to pull him into his arms and comfort him, but he only did half the motion before he seemed to remember something and his hands immediately fell back to his side.

Chen Liguo's tears flowed out as if they were free of charge. He rushed towards Lu Zhiyang, wanting Lu Zhiyang to hold him, but Lu Zhiyang pressed down on his shoulders, keeping him back.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Stand properly."

Chen Liguo cried even more miserably.

Lu Zhiyang said coldly, "I'm not your Dad."

Chen Liguo slowly crouched down and curled up, resembling a small animal that had been hurt. It was unknown if it was because he was crying too hard, but he felt a faint pain in his heart.

Lu Zhiyang looked at his 'going to die' appearance and restrained the trembling of his heart. He said as coldly as before, "Leave, I don't want to see you right now."

Chen Liguo's voice had turned hoa.r.s.e from crying, but what Lu Zhiyang said to do, he would do. He slowly straightened his body, using the wall as a support, he left.

Lu Zhiyang looked at the view of Chen Liguo's back, his whole body so tense it was like a rock.

Chen Liguo who had left returned to his room in despair. He said, "My G.o.d, I'm so sad, Tong-er, I'm doomed to wallow in sadness tonight, unable to sleep."

System: "…..Speak human."

Chen Liguo: "I'm already this sad, can't you just cooperate with me?"

System: "I don't read romance novels."

Chen Liguo: "….." Then what novels do you usually read?! It can't all be scriptures, can it?

Chen Liguo heaved yet another deep sigh. He had originally thought that being Lu Zhiyang's son would be helpful when aiding Lu Meiqing. But who would have thought that he wasn't Lu Zhiyang's biological son, but the son of the next door neighbor? This was too tragic. If Lu Zhiyang doesn't torment him then it was already considered mercy. Chen Liguo counting on Lu Zhiyang to help him? That was just a pipe dream!

Chen Liguo didn't talk, his mind quieting down.

The system also fell silent for a little while before it suddenly said, "It's not all that bad. At least Lu Zhiyang didn't tell anyone that you aren't his son." Otherwise, the housekeeper would have definitely known.

Chen Liguo didn't speak.

The system saw that he didn't respond and spoke up again, "Besides, the source of the daughter of fate's tragedy does not lie in her family."

Chen Liguo still didn't respond.

The system had thought that Chen Liguo was thinking at first, but after getting no response despite talking so much, he discovered that Chen Liguo, this son of a b*tch, had already fallen asleep.

System: "……." If it could self-detonate, he would have already taken Chen Liguo down with it. What f*cking 'I'm doomed to wallow in sadness, unable to sleep'?! Not even 15 minutes had pa.s.sed before he started snoring.

Chen Liguo: "snooooreee."

The next day, Chen Liguo woke up in sorrow.

The first thing Chen Liguo said when he opened his eyes was: "Today’s sunshine is so brilliant, but my heart is submerged into a cold abyss.”

System: "……" Here we go again.

Chen Liguo: "I need someone to pamper me."

System: "……"

Chen Liguo blushed and fantasized, "The best thing to do is to live well. I'm not that sort of person who looks at the face." I've spent so many years as a child, alas……

System: "You're still not getting out of bed?!"

Chen Liguo: "Getting up getting up getting up."

Then he reluctantly crawled out of bed and slid into the bathroom, rubbing his eyes. Only going downstairs after he rubbed his eyes red.

Lu Zhiyang sat at the end of the table, still ignoring Chen Liguo.

Chen Liguo ate a steamed up and ate another steamed bun. As he was reaching for his third steamed bun the housekeeper said, "What are little master's eyes so red? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Chen Liguo's voice was as quiet as a mosquito’s as he said, "No."

The housekeeper looked at the atmosphere between the father and son, revealing an expression of disbelief.

Chen Liguo's eyes were swollen to this point, according to Lu Zhiyang's concern for Chen Liguo, how could it be possible for him to not hear nor question?^[1] What happened to these two people that the relationship between them would turn so cold that they wouldn't even talk to each other?

However, the housekeeper was doomed to get no answer.

Lu Zhiyang didn't say a single word to Chen Liguo all the way until Chen Liguo went to school.

Towards this, Chen Liguo expressed that Lu Zhiyang was a good person. If he knew that he had worn the green hat, it was estimated that he definitely wouldn't be as calm as him…….

This matter was the beginning of a long cold war between Chen Liguo and Lu Zhiyang.

In fact, rather than a cold war, it was more like Lu Zhiyang's unilateral disregard.

He no longer spoke to Chen Liguo and the time he spent at home became far and few between. Chen Liguo saw his and sighed with feeling, "Lu Zhiyang really is a good person."

The system found this odd, "He is treating you like this and you're still saying that he's a good person?"

Chen Liguo sighed deeply and said, "Tong-er, you don't understand. Wearing the green hat, to a man, this is a major disgrace…… Lu Zhiyang did not stab me to death, indicating that he had loved me.”

System: "……" It gave up.

Chen Liguo said, “I respect him as a man.”

The system regretted getting into a conversation with Chen Liguo for no reason. Now it's three world views have been crushed into powder and it seemed that there was no chance to ever recover.

The housekeeper was extremely confused about the emotional changes between the Lu father and son. He didn't know what happened to his family's master. Why has the baby he loved so dearly for so many years turned into the garbage that he didn't even want to look at overnight?

Chen Liguo still came home on time every day. But he would shut himself in his room when he got home, only coming out when it was time to eat.

Secretly, he housekeeper asked Chen Liguo what had happened.

But without saying a single word, Chen Liguo's tears began to fall, his whole body shaking like a sieve. He shook his head, unwilling to reply.

The housekeeper was unable to get an answer from him.

An so a month pa.s.sed in this way. Chen Liguo's face became more and more ugly and blue marks began to appear under the rims of his eyes. Evidently, he wasn't sleeping well.

This was a situation that had never happened before. In the past, Lu Zhiyang had already held Chen Liguo in the palm of his hand like a treasure, unwilling to let his body become even the least bit sick.

The housekeeper told Lu Zhiyang about this matter. However, Lu Zhiyang, who was reading data, did not even raise his head and said indifferently, “Leave him be.”

The housekeeper was completely stunned.

Lu Zhiyang said faintly, "In the future don't worry about him. Giving him food and shelter is already the Lu family's grace."

The housekeeper was completely stunned silly. He said, "Sir, the little master is young and his body is not good. Even if he did something wrong, you should not be this angry with him."

Lu Zhiyang didn't speak.

The housekeeper said, "If something really does happen to the little master, you will regret it."

Lu Zhang raised his head, and in a neither salty nor light tone, said, "Then let's wait until I regret it to speak of this again."

The housekeeper fell mute, and after sighing, left the room.

Lu Zhiyang put down the data in his hands and wanted to go downstairs to get a gla.s.s of water. However, when he pa.s.sed Chen Liguo's room, he heard the sound of m.u.f.fled crying coming from inside.

Lu Zhiyang's footsteps paused, a rare agitation appearing in his eyes. He wanted to knock on the door and see what was going on inside, but the knot in his heart that couldn’t be untied prevented him from doing so.

In the end, Lu Zhiyang did nothing and turned away.

In the room. Chen Liguo: "Wuwuwuwu…..how miserable!"

System: "……"

Chen Liguo: "This woman is too pitiful——"

System: "……"

Chen Liguo: "Her leukemia hasn't been cured yet and yet a traffic accident happened wuwuwu."

System: "……" So tired.

Chen Liguo: "Tong-er, if I were the male lead……"

The system said lightly, "What?"

Chen Liguo thought about it, took a piece of tissue and blew his nose: "I would go find the village and have him let go of the female lead no matter what stood in my way!"

System: "……" As if!

Ever since Lu Zhiyang stopped caring about Chen Liguo, Chen Liguo has been obsessed with watching soap operas. Every day, he would sit in front of the computer in the wee hours of the morning——it would be strange if his complexion didn't get worse and worse.

But the soap operas in this world really were filmed well. The main point is the that the male leads were all very handsome. Every day Chen Liguo would be frightened by Lu Zhiyang's scowling face and could only find a trace comfort from the soap operas on TV.

When Chen Liguo watched till episode 86 of the series, it was already early in the morning.

He put on his pajamas and lay in bed. Not even two minutes later, he fell asleep.

Then Chen Liguo was late the next day.

The alarm clock didn't go off at all and the housekeeper didn't call him either. When Chen Liguo woke up it was already past ten o'clock.

Chen Liguo looked at his watch and happily decided to skip school. Then he fell asleep and slept until noon.

When Chen Liguo got out of bed, he felt uncomfortable and a little heavy-headed. At first, he thought he was hungry because he had not eaten. As a result, after randomly finding something to eat, he found out that he had a fever.

Listlessly, Chen Liguo randomly found some medicine to eat and once again watched two episodes. In the end, when he really couldn't go on, he went back to bed to lie down. When laid down, he didn't forget to play games on his phone.

If the system had to say, this sort of person who courted death should be let go of. Giving them medical treatment was a waste of resources.

Chen Liguo played and played, his whole person faint and dizzy. It was unknown whether he had fallen asleep or had fainted.

Either way, when he woke up again, he was already in a hospital bed.

Chen Liguo opened his eyes and saw Lu Zhiyang sitting beside him frowning. The murderous pressure emitting body made Chen Liguo shudder.

Lu Zhiyang saw him and up and said, "You've woken."

In one month, Chen Liguo seems to have lost a lot of weight. The face that had originally been a little fleshy had lost a layer and his skin was now even whiter, almost transparent. Seeing Chen Liguo looking like this, Lu Zhiyang's mood was very bad.

Chen Liguo's lips moved and he whispered a quiet, "Dad."

Lu Zhiyang took a deep look at him and said lightly, “What do you want to eat, I’ll buy it for you.”

Chen Liguo said quietly, "I want to drink porridge."

Lu Zhiyang nodded and then left.

Chen Liguo took advantage of his departure and looked around. However, he was unable to find his mobile phone. He said, "Tong-er, where's my phone?"

System: "Home."

Chen Liguo: "……"

System: "What for?" He had thought that Chen Liguo wanted to call someone.

As a result, Chen Liguo said, "I almost beat that level!"

System: "….." You should just go ahead and die!!!

Lu Zhiyang came back really quickly with a porridge container. He gave the spoon to Chen Liguo, completely without the intention of feeding him.

Chen Liguo took the spoon and drank the porridge feeling wronged, silently cursing Lu Zhiyang in his heart. When he liked the other person he would call them 'Baby' and 'Sweetie', when he didn't like the other, he was even unwilling to give a spoon. Men these days, tsk tsk tsk.

Lu Zhiyang didn't know what Chen Liguo was thinking at this moment. He looked at Chen Liguo drinking the porridge obediently and his heart inexplicably felt uncomfortable. Unhappily he said, “If you were feeling uncomfortable then why didn't you say so earlier?”

Chen Liguo smiled grudgingly and said, "Well……I didn't realize either."

Lu Zhiyang knit his brows and reached out to grab Chen Liguo's chin. Raising his face, he said, "Lu Jiashu, don't give me that sort of lie.^[2]"

Chen Liguo drooped his long eyelashes and pursed his white lips and said, "Dad, do you not want me anymore?"

Lu Zhiyang's hand shook slightly.

Chen Liguo saw a play coming on and quickly continued to aggravate the present situation. The corner of his eyes became watery, pain and longer visible in his eyes. He said, "Dad, you don't want me."

Lu Zhiyang's heart immediately became soft, unable to reject this sort of Chen Liguo. But this baby that he had loved for so many years was not his son. This fact was still something that Lu Zhiyang was unable to accept.

Lu Zhiyang's mood was extremely complicated. He said, "Lu Jiashu, you're too young and don't understand anything."

Chen Liguo didn’t have the chance to care that there was still some drops of something on his hands as he stretched out his hands to firmly wrap his arms around Lu Zhiyang's waist, sobbing, "Dad, I love love you the most, do you not love me? Dad——"

Lu Zhiyang didn't give Chen Liguo an answer. He removed Chen Liguo's arms with a strength that was not too strong but not too weak and said, "You have a good rest, I have something to do and will leave first."

After that, he got up and left, looking not the least bit reluctant to leave.

Chen Liguo sat in bed with tears on his face. He said to the system, "System."

Originally, the system really wanted to ignore Chen Liguo, but seeing Chen Liguo cry so tragically, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Chen Liguo: "My goodness, Lu Zhiyang's waist is extremely thin."

System: "……"

Chen Liguo reached out and made an embracing gesture, "So thin, so thin! The pectoral muscles are also very st.u.r.dy."

System: "……"

Chen Liguo laughed foolishly. "Moreover, we aren't father and son, there's no blood relationship, hehehehe."

System thought that the Diamond Sutra could no longer save him from the vulgar world. He felt that he needed to try other religions.

Chen Liguo laid in the hospital for ten days. Lu Zhiyang had only come on the first day.

When Chen Liguo returned to school. Yuan Ange who saw him was stricken dumb with amazement. He said, "Lu Jiashu, what happened to you? How did you lose so much weight?"

Chen Liguo coughed lowly and said, "Got sick."

Yuan Ange said, "I know……I asked your father and he said that you were sick. I wanted to come and see you but your father didn't tell me which hospital that you were in."

Chen Liguo smiled bitterly and said, "I'm fine."

Yuan Ange said, "Your body isn't in the best of conditions, you need to be more careful."

Chen Liguo nodded and said, "How's the matter of you going abroad going?"

Yuan Ange heard this and sighed, "I can't help but worry about Meiqing."

Chen Liguo heard this and immediately stuck out his chest, saying, "It's alright, I can take care of her."

Yuan Ange glanced at him and said, "You can't even take care of yourself and yet you want to take care of Meiqing? You two…… must wait for me to come back!"

Chen Liguo: "Okay."

Chen Liguo became friends with Yuan Ange due to their interest, but sin short, he was worth making friends with. At least, Chen Liguo feels that if Yuan Ange didn't lose his memory, he probably wouldn't have abandoned Lu Meiqing for another woman.

Originally there was no such 'if' in this world, but now, Chen Liguo will make this 'if' come true.

After his illness, Chen Liguo, who came home, seemed to be even more closed off. Faced with Lu Zhiyang’s indifference and the housekeeper’s 'wanting to talk but being unable to', he chose to shut himself up in his room.

The housekeeper was very distressed, but Lu Zhiyang called him out once again and said some rarely said harsh words.

Lu Zhiyang said, "If you still regard me as the master of this household, then don't bother about him."

With no other way, the housekeeper could only let it go.

And in this way, a few months pa.s.sed.

At the end of the term, Chen Liguo got extremely terrible grades. When he got his exams back, this entire person broke down.

Chen Liguo: "Math! Math! Not a single fill in the blank question is right!"

System: "Well at least, two choices were correct."

Chen Liguo: "Language——why give me 28% on my essay??"

System: "You've already been given word count points."

When Chen Liguo looked the English mark, he cried himself hoa.r.s.e, “Why are all my fill in the blanks wrong? My spoken English is very good!!"

System: “This mysterious phenomenon cannot be explained.”

Chen Liguo: "In the end, why is it like this?"

System: “Because you were chasing after TV series a month before the exam.”

Chen Liguo was sad: “But I’m not a junior high school student anymore.”

System: “Don’t look down upon the future of the motherland.”

Chen Liguo returned home with his exam sheets in hand and didn't even eat dinner.

Chen Liguo: "I want to work hard, I want to study hard!"

System: "Can you turn off the computer first?"

Chen Liguo: "I'll go look at my textbooks after I finish watching this TV drama!"

System: "……" F*cking deserve your 36% in math.

As Chen Liguo watched enthusiastically he suddenly head some light footsteps outside the door and quickly reached out his hand to close the computer and then rested his upper body on the table making himself look as though he were utterly exhausted.

Lu Zhiyang stood out the door. Originally, he had wanted to knock on the door, but suddenly he stopped and directed reached out to twist the door handle.

As soon as the door opened, Lu Zhiyang saw Chen Liguo lying on his computer desk, motionless, looking as though he had fallen looking asleep. He called out, “Lu Jiashu.” Then saw Lu Jiashu’s shoulders relax up a bit as a somewhat absent minded face was revealed.

"Dad." Chen Liguo threw himself into his acting.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Very tired?"

Chen Liguo heard Lu Zhiyang's words of concern and immediately showed a flattered expression. He said, "I'm not tired, just laying down for a bit……"

Lu Zhiyang said, "Your teacher called me."

Chen Liguo: "……" A fatal blow.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Where's the exam sheet?"

Although Chen Liguo was very reluctant, he also knew that he had no right to say no, so under Lu Zhiyang’s sharp eyes, he took out the report card from his schoolbag and handed it to Lu Zhiyang.

When Lu Zhiyang took it, he saw the shining thirty-six on it: “……” Sure enough, he wasn't his biological son.

Chen Liguo is a little embarra.s.sed and lowered his head, his ears turning red.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Now you know that it's embarra.s.sing?"

Chen Liguo didn't speak.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Show me the other papers too."

Chen Liguo took the papers and showed them to Lu Zhiyang.

The more Lu Zhiyang looked the more his brows wrinkled. Just when Chen Liguo thought that he was going to get angry, he said, "I've found a teacher to give you extra lessons."

Chen Liguo's tears fell with a single wipe.

Lu Zhiyang saw him crying but didn't have any intention of comforting him. He put the papers aside and said, "Since you want to be an offspring of the Lu family then you should be a little more competent."

Chen Liguo: "……" Wuwuwuwu.

Lu Zhiyang kneaded his temples, his tone somewhat helpless as he said, "Never in my life have I seen someone who was able to get 36% in math."

Chen Liguo was ashamed.

Lu Zhiyang said, "You're the first one."

Just as Chen Liguo was about to shed tears, he heard Lu Zhiyang speak again.

He said, "In this way, you really aren’t like me."

Chen Liguo: "……" Blame the next door neighbor.
