Chapter 1536: Get Lost

After Litian finished speaking, he embraced Lu Feifei and walked out; she did not hesitate at all, reaching back to wrap her arms around Litian's waist.

Once the two of them had walked out, Sheng Hanyu said, "You went too far."

Shi Youxuan was very calm: "I know, I did it on purpose."

"Oh, tell me, why did you have to do that?"

Shi Youxuan glared at her husband, dissatisfied: "You don't even know what I'm thinking; what use do I have for a man like you? Get lost."

After saying this, she stood up and left.

Telling someone else to "get lost," and then leaving herself?

Sheng Hanyu muttered under his breath: "Don't know who actually got lost."

After muttering, he still had to follow her to apologize and admit his mistake.

His attitude had to be correct; even if he was in the right, he couldn't let his wife feel wronged.

After catching up to her, he realized his wife's good intentions.

Shi Youxuan explained that she had done it on purpose; if Lu Feifei were truly with Litian for money, her eyes would definitely have wavered when she spoke like that just now.

However, she hadn't noticed any hesitation in Lu Feifei's gaze just now; it was very firm.

As for whether it was sincere or fake, she still needed to observe; there was no rush.

Sheng Hanyu asked if she wasn't afraid that Litian would misunderstand her and that there would be a rift between mother and son.

Shi Youxuan was very confident, asserting: "If he can't even withstand this little test, then he isn't worthy of being my, Shi Youxuan's, son. If Litian really develops a rift with me because of this, then all these years of loving him have been in vain."

Although she had a lot of confidence in her son, Shi Youxuan was still angry inside.

Litian had never talked back to her before; now, because of Lu Feifei, he had actually given her a cold shoulder and slammed the door—this was something that had never happened before!

Hmph.

Just you wait!

……

The two walked out of the residential complex, and Lu Feifei said to Litian: "Alright, I'll go back to school by myself. You should go home; don't let a rift grow in the relationship between you and your mother because of me."

"No, I'm not going back. My mom went too far; she shouldn't have treated you like that!"

"Litian—" Lu Feifei's eyes filled with tears.

"Oh, don't cry, why are you crying?" He was at a loss, hurriedly using his hands to wipe away her tears.

Halfway through, he stopped.

His hands were calloused from training, like rasps; it wasn't very good to wipe someone's tears directly with his hands.

It would be best to have a tissue, but there were none.

Lu Feifei rubbed her face directly against his clothes.

"If, I mean if, your mother firmly opposes the two of us, will you break up with me?" She was so afraid; her upbringing had given her a strong sense of insecurity, a fear of being abandoned.

"No, absolutely not!" Litian shook his head.

"Mm, I believe you."

Lu Feifei cried and laughed at the same time, leaving Litian not knowing what to do.

He was not good with words; he wanted to coax his girlfriend, but didn't know how to do it properly.

Lu Feifei said: "I'm going back to school."

Litian said: "I'll go back with you."

"Is that okay?"

"It is."

And so, the two of them went back to school together.

Sheng Family.

Shi Youxuan waited at home for a long time, but didn't see Litian return.

The anger that had already subsided flared up again!

"Fine, a grown son really doesn't listen to his mother. He must have gone off with that Lu Feifei. Didn't I say that girl was calculating? She hasn't even entered the family yet and she's already sowing discord between mother and son."

Sheng Hanyu tried to persuade her: "That's not it, don't let your imagination run wild. He probably just went out for a walk to get some air. You didn't see how aggressive you were just now; it was too scary."

"How was I aggressive? I was quite gentle, hmph! You all just find me unpleasant!"

"I'll bet you that Litian will be back in a moment."

"Bet what?"

"Anything."

"Fine, if you lose, you're a pig!"

"Fine."

In the end, Sheng Hanyu was the "pig."

He called Litian, and Litian said he had returned to school; Sheng Hanyu was speechless.

It really was as his wife had said; he had actually gone back to school.

Jiangzhou University.

After Litian returned to school and got settled, the first thing he did was go find his older brother.

Zichen was naturally very happy to see him: "Litian? You're back, that's great! The two brothers of us can be together often again, hahahaha..."

"Big brother, let's set a time to eat, the four of us together." There was no need to name names; as for who the other two were besides the two of them, it went without saying.

"Oh, why set a time? There's no time like the present, let's do it now."

Zichen and Gu Yuxin, Litian and Lu Feifei, the four of them met at a noodle shop.

The noodle shop was still as crude as ever, and the food was also very simple—a bowl of noodles and a few side dishes. Litian's welcome feast was very simple, but the atmosphere was very lively.

The brothers had not seen each other for a long time, and they had endless things to talk about.

Litian returned to school, resuming his status as a student; his future was bright, and staying on to teach at the school was almost a certainty.

What remained were the future plans of the other three.

When it came to future plans, Gu Yuxin said that of course she had to take the postgraduate entrance exam, saying it as if it were a matter of course, but Zichen said, "I'm not taking it."

Gu Yuxin's face fell instantly, and she asked in astonishment, "You're not taking it? Why?"

Before Zichen could answer, she suddenly realized, "Right, with your grades, you probably don't need to take the exam; you can be recommended for admission."

Zichen explained, "No, you misunderstood. I mean I'm not going to graduate school; after I graduate with my bachelor's degree, I'm planning to go open a restaurant."

Gu Yuxin:...

"What did you say? No way, you're joking with me, right?"

Zichen answered very seriously, "I'm not joking with you. How could I joke with you about something like this? I'm going to open a restaurant after I graduate; I've always planned it this way. The kitchen is my life's work—didn't you know that?"

Gu Yuxin: "That's not right. Since when did the kitchen become your life's work? Isn't it just a hobby?"

"Is there a difference between a career and a hobby?"

"Of course there's a difference; there's a fundamental distinction between them."

"A hobby is an interest, something you like, something you can stick with for a lifetime, but it is absolutely not a direction for future development!"

Zichen immediately explained, "That's not true. Of course, what you like can be your future development direction; I don't see any problem with that..."

The two of them argued endlessly.

They argued until their faces were red, yet neither could convince the other.

Litian and Lu Feifei exchanged a look, attempting to change the subject.

Litian said, "Anyway, there are still two years until graduation, so don't be in a rush. It was hard enough for us to get together today, let's talk about something happy."

Lu Feifei chimed in, "Exactly, let's change the subject."

"No."

"No."

The two of them objected in unison.

This matter was very serious and had to be discussed clearly and thoroughly today.

Only then did Zichen and Gu Yuxin realize that the two of them seemed to have never talked about this topic before.

Both of them had taken it for granted that the other person would think the same way they did!

Zichen thought that since he liked gourmet food and Gu Yuxin liked it too, their interests were the same, so their future development directions should also be the same.
