Mu Qingyi was hesitating, deliberating whether or not to tell his mother about Father Mu.

If I tell her, mother would definitely use the money she got from the divorce to help him, wouldn’t she?

He wanted to ask Shao Qinghe for advice, but today, his friend’s mother was causing some trouble again. She was fussing about and making things difficult, so he had no choice but to go home.

He didn’t know what to do as he pondered whether or not to call Xu Xinduo. She didn’t have evening classes today, but at this moment, he wasn’t even sure if she was done with work.

This incident was already something that he expected, but for it to come so abruptly, it almost crushed him.

He was originally a very proud person, but the sudden change made him incapable of straightening his back to take on the world like he used to. His head was drooping slightly and his face was drowned amidst the darkness. Even from afar, his silhouette was unclear as his frame blended in with the dark.

As a seventeen-year-old boy, Mu Qingyi, who was unable to do anything about this matter, subconsciously clenched his fists in helplessness.

Tong Yan was carrying a plastic bag as he sucked on a CC jelly stick(1) in his hand. After seeing Mu Qingyi, he walked over and sat diagonally opposite of him. Tong Yan asked, “You didn’t tell her, did you?”

(T/N: A typical sweet snack in Asian countries that is usually fruit flavored)

“Duoduo?” Mu Qingyi also looked up at him and asked.

“Mmhm.”

“You know about it already?”

“Of course I do. With such a huge commotion happening, someone was bound to tell me by now,” Tong Yan shrugged nonchalantly.

Mu Qingyi also looked at Tong Yan’s schadenfreude and couldn’t help but sigh. In his opinion, this matter was catastrophic to him. No matter what, the man was his biological father who raised him since he was a child. Naturally, Mu Qingyi was caught in a dilemma of emotions.

However, Tong Yan was not the same. He expressed his joy gleefully, showing off his pearly white teeth in a dazzling smile.

If there was a curtain between the two of them, Mu Qingyi’s side of the room would be filled in a gloomy and dark atmosphere whereas Tong Yan would metaphorically have flowers of all colours blooming behind him.

“Did you come here just to find me?” Mu Qingyi felt that he had hidden himself pretty far away. There were barely any people who came to the Multimedia Building at a time like this, so it definitely wasn’t a good-natured ‘coincidence’ to meet him here.

Tong Yan nodded and admitted, “Well, yes, I wanted to stop you for a second.”

“I can’t treat this matter the same way you do.”

“I know.”

“So what exactly do you mean?” Mu Qingyi also asked Tong Yan puzzledly.

Tong Yan had a few mouthfuls of his jelly before screwing the lid back on, “Don’t let your mother know about this for now. Wait till she uses her money to invest in her business or something before you tell her about this. That way, even if she wanted to help, she wouldn’t have the means to. To be honest, you guys got really lucky for this to happen after cutting ties with him— she managed to retain about half the wealth and you don’t seem like you’ll struggle in the future either. So, you can still consider yourself 50% a Young Master.”

“And then?”

“Then you put a show in front of your father. Try to make some connections and let your father see your efforts. From there, he will reflect on the times where he invalidated your feelings. He will see that everyone is working hard, his business can no longer be saved, his wife has left him and his son is thriving— making him suffer for eternity.”

“That’s a plan that you thought about?”
