  Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiusheng’s smile froze.

  The air in the study seemed to become heavy, as if there was a layer of ice.

  Qiao Jiusheng’s heart ached a little. She asked Fang Yusheng with a heartbroken expression, “How old were you?”


  “When I was eight years old.” That summer vacation, he returned to the Fang family home to accompany his grandfather as usual. He did not know about this incident and accidentally heard his grandfather scold Fang Pingjue, saying that he should not have suspected Lisa and should not have secretly done a paternity test with Fang Yusheng’s hair.

  He was clearly his biological son, but he was always suspicious. Fang Mu, who was an illegitimate son, was brought home by Fang Pingjue. That was why Fang Yusheng hated him so much when he saw Fang Mu when he was 14 years old.

  Originally, Fang Yusheng had already started to forget these things, but today’s unintentional words from the two children made Fang Yusheng recall that unhappy memory.

  “Do you think I’m really a bastard…”


  “Shh!” Qiao Jiusheng pressed her fingers against Fang Yusheng’s mouth and said, “Don’t look down on yourself. The man I, Qiao Jiusheng, fancy is naturally good.”


  Fang Yusheng’s heart warmed.

  He said, “You’re really my Little Sun!”


  Several years ago, he lost his light here. Several years later, his little sun returned with him.

  The rest of his life was finally not a lonely one.

  Mon, look, I’m living happily.

  After Qiao Jiusheng made dinner, the two little fellows were finally back. Fang Zikai used his jacket to carry a pile of beautiful leaves, while Fang Zicheng’s hands were empty. The moment they entered the house, the two of them obediently called out for their mother before Fang Zikai dragged his brother to make specimens.

  “This piece is ready for Daddy.”


  Fang Zikai chose the largest piece and wiped it clean. He removed all the unclean items and carefully pressed it in a book. When Fang Zicheng saw this, he could not help but say, “Don’t you want to make transparent specimens?”


  Fang Zikai nodded.

  Fang Zicheng said, “Transparent specimens aren’t made like that.”


  “Then what should we do?”


  Fang Zicheng explained to him in detail, “Skeletonize the leaf first. Then bleach, dehydrate and apply a layer of preservation liquid.”


  “Then how can it be skeletonized? Do you know how?” Fang Zikai looked at his brother with starry eyes.

  Fang Zicheng shook his head. “No.”


  “Do you know how to bleach it?”


  “no.”


  “Do you know how to dehydrate it?”


  “…Not really.”


  Upon hearing this, Fang Zikai clicked his tongue. “Then you only know how to say it. What is this called…” Fang Zikai turned his head and asked Qiao Jiusheng, who was arranging the dishes.” Mom, if someone’s mouth is especially eloquent, but he don’t know anything, what would you call him?”


  Qiao Jiusheng did not know about their conversation just now. Upon hearing this, she said, “It’s called indulging in empty talk.”


  “Yes, yes, yes!”


  Fang Zikai quickly nodded. Then, he looked at his expressionless brother and said to him, “You only know how to indulge in empty talk.”


  Fang Zicheng was not angry.

  In fact, he felt that Fang Zikai was right.

  Fang Zicheng got up and climbed upstairs. He called Fang Yusheng downstairs for dinner. Fang Yusheng carried him downstairs. When they went downstairs, Fang Zicheng asked him softly, “Dad, how do we make a specimen?”


  “It’s simple. Just skeletonize and bleach it. Then dehydrate it and apply some liquid preservation.”


  Fang Zicheng continued to ask, “Then do you know how to make it?”


  Fang Yusheng thought that he was his father. How could he not know how to do something?

  He nodded and said calmly, “Yes.”


  Fang Zicheng nodded and thought that his father was amazing.

  When they reached the first floor, Fang Zicheng asked Fang Yusheng to put him down. Qiao Jiusheng still had soup that she had not finished cooking. Seeing that he was not in a hurry to eat, Fang Zicheng pulled Fang Yusheng to the corridor. He pointed at Fang Zikai and the leaves under him and said to Fang Yusheng, “Dad, then help my brother make specimens.”


  Fang Yusheng was speechless.

  He was very confused, but his expression remained calm and composed.

  He said, “Let’s eat first. We’ll do it tonight after dinner.”


  “Alright.” Fang Zicheng was still young at this time and was especially easy to coax.

  During the meal, Fang Yusheng held his phone.

  Fang Zikai sat on a high stool. Seeing that his father had been playing with his phone, he tiptoed over to take a look. When Fang Yusheng saw a small head approaching, he quickly put down his phone. He educated Fang Zikai. “What are you doing? You should focus when you’re eating.”


  “Tsk, Mom. Dad’s talking to his lover.”


  In the television drama Fang Zikai was watching, the male lead ate with his family while chatting with his lover. When he saw his family looking over, he hurriedly turned off his phone, just like his father.

  Qiao Jiusheng gave Fang Yusheng a meaningful look.

  Fang Yusheng looked calm as he explained, “I’m reading the news.”


  Qiao Jiusheng knew that he was lying when she saw his expression.

  After the meal, Fang Yusheng opened the garage and took out an especially old Ford Carnival. The car was quite clean, but perhaps because it had been used for too many years, it could be seen at a glance that this car was a little old. Fang Yusheng got into the car and said to Fang Zikai and Fang Zicheng, “Get in. Let’s go into the city to shop.”


  “Okay.”


  The two little fellows ran to the backseat and sat down. Fang Zicheng shifted his buttocks and looked a little uncomfortable.

  Fang Zikai was not as reserved as his brother. He said, “This car is not as comfortable as the car at home.” At home, there was a Cayenne and a Lycan. Later on, Fang Yusheng had won a Maserati. The two little fellows did not like it when they sat in this car.

  Qiao Jiusheng sat in the front passenger seat and said to the two babies, “Be content. Your father and I have sat on bikes, convertible electric scooters, and a midnight flight. You should be very happy to have a small sedan to sit in.”


  Fang Zikai said loudly, “Daddy is stingy! Stingy Daddy!”


  Fang Yusheng retorted, “Then buy a Rolls-Royce for Daddy when you grow up.”


  Fang Zikai agreed.

  Fang Zicheng said silently, “The cheapest price of this car is more than four million yuan. The expensive one is more than ten million yuan.”


  Fang Zikai quickly covered his mouth and said, “This car is quite good.”


  The corners of Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Zicheng’s mouths twitched at the same time. Fang Yusheng felt helpless. He also knew that being stingy was an illness that had to be treated. In the past, he did not think that being stingy was anything, but when he saw that his son was so stingy to him, he wanted to cry.

  When they arrived in the city, Fang Yusheng entered a pharmacy and bought some things.

  Then, he brought his child and wife around London.

  “The London Eye!”


  Fang Zikai suddenly shouted. He leaned against the window and looked at the London Eue through the window. He was a little excited. He saw that his brother was too calm and was a little unhappy. The little fellow kept patting his brother’s hand and said excitedly, “Brother, the London Eye! London Eye!”


  The brother expressed that he wanted to be left alone.

  Fang Yusheng stopped the car and said to Qiao Jiusheng, “Do you want to go and play?”


  Qiao Jiusheng said, “I don’t want to. Didn’t we play in the East Lake Happy Valley a few years ago? It’s not fun.”


  Fang Yusheng pretended to be sad. He said, “When I passed by this place in the past, I thought that I must bring the person I love to ride it with me. Since you don’t want to go…”


  “Let’s go, let’s go. Get out of the car!”
