The anchor I was supposed to meet turned out to be my student.

Do you know how alluring her movements are when she gets dressed?

and so……

I took her clothes, and she got angry and we got into a fight early in the morning.

We really did have a real fight; she pinched my waist so hard it hurt.

……

On the way to school, I would glance at her out of the corner of my eye from time to time. This was a change in my mindset after she became my woman; I couldn't help but look at her more often.

"Drive carefully and stop staring at me..." Tongtong turned her head away.

"Then how do you know I'm looking at you if you're not looking at me?"

"Hmph, I could feel a lewd gaze roaming over me. I could tell. You must have been planning to do something bad to me this morning, and you even wanted to do it in the car... you pervert!" Tongtong said, blushing.

I'm innocent...

After a while, Tongtong changed her tone, asking with both wariness and worry, "How is Xinning doing lately?"

My grip on the steering wheel tightened instinctively.

"She goes to school as usual."

"Don't play dumb with me, Tusheng. You know what I'm asking..."

For the sake of the overall situation, I certainly cannot tell Bi Antong about Xin Ning's background or that I accepted Xin Ning's confession. If it gets out, it will cause complete chaos.

So I said, "She does like me, just as you said... You know she confessed, and I've talked to her and comforted her. Anyway, everything's fine for now, so you don't need to worry too much..."

I remembered what Xin Ning had told me: the reason Tong Tong's relationship with Xin Ning suddenly soured was because Tong Tong discovered Xin Ning's secret crush on me. So I took this opportunity to say to Tong Tong, "Also, Tong Tong, you must get along well with Xin Ning in the future, otherwise, if you two have a conflict, I'll be in a really difficult position..."

"I didn't mean to have a falling out with Xin Ning. Actually, I've never been angry with her. I just hoped she could correct her mistakes in relationships. Now that she has, I will naturally reconcile with her. After all, I like Xin Ning very much too, and I am, after all, her... sister-in-law..."

Tongtong turned her head away and shyly uttered the last word.

But I know very well that the term "sister-in-law" is not accurate enough...

……

Tongtong got out of the car, waved goodbye to me, and I watched her walk into the school. The feeling of sending Tongtong to school was very subtle, because last night she had learned a lot of unorthodox knowledge, and now she was at school learning serious knowledge. The contrast was huge.

Before class started at eight o'clock, I found the WeChat group chat on my phone. It was a group created by Hanhan, with four people in total: me, Hanhan, Xinning, and Yanyi. The group chat was called "The Fishpond Born Without a Trace," a name Hanhan came up with. Every time I tried to change it, she changed it back. How could she possibly feel about that, considering that Yanyi isn't even a fish in the pond?

I sent a message asking for help: I ​​urgently need two girls to move in with me, and I'll offer a reward.

Xu Lehan: Wow, boss, you're inviting us to play three-player matches so directly? How much is the reward for each match? My rank is really in demand.

Me: My butt itches?

Xu Lehan: I'm afraid even three players can't carry the boss. Xiaoyan, why don't you come along too?

Jiang Yanyi: Scared.jpg

Hua Xinning: What exactly happened to my brother?

As expected of Xin Ning, she was the only one who was normal, so I told her that Tong Tong and Ye Zhi were now living with me.

Xu Lehan: What? Boss, you already have a three-player team? No wonder you need to find two more. Are you really going for a five-player team?

Jiang Yanyi: I'm still young...

Hua Xinning: If we go there, how can we help my brother? Sister Ye Zhi might not care, but Sister Tong Tong might be even angrier.

Me: It's okay, just treat it as a trip, and you can stay overnight.

Xu Lehan: Got it, this way the eldest won't have to sleep with Tongtong and Sister Yezhi, but with the four of us instead~ It really solved the problem, hehe...

Me: You silly goose, if you keep causing trouble, I'll go into the school right now and pin you to the podium and spank you in front of everyone. I'm outside the school right now.

Xu Lehan: Well-behaved.jpg

I continued, "Lehan, you should sleep with Tongtong, and Xinning, you should sleep with Yezhi. They definitely won't be able to refuse, so they can avoid arguing... Please, you two sisters."

Unexpectedly, Xin Ning and Xu Lehan were both more excited than the other.

Xu Lehan: Okay, then I might as well move out of the school, so I can stay with my boss every day, and at night...

I can even get intimate with the boss, hehe~

Hua Xinning: Okay, I'll pack my bags now, brother, come pick me up now~

Me: Wait, if you just bring your luggage over now, there's no explanation... How about you come over to play after school every day and stay overnight for now? I'll ask Ye Zhi later, and if she, as the host, has no objections, then you can move over.

Then, looking at the emojis they sent, you could tell that the two sisters were very excited...

At this moment, Jiang Yan, who hadn't said a word, called me.

"Brother Hua...why didn't you ask Yan Yi for help? Do you think I can't help at all..." Jiang Yan Yi seemed to feel ignored and was a little unhappy.

I quickly explained, "No, I'm worried that your parents won't agree. After all, you're still living with them, and it's unlikely they'll let you move to someone else's house... Besides, you have your final exams coming up soon, so you can't be distracted. You need to do well on your exams so your parents will agree to let you become a trainee."

"So that's how it is. I thought Brother Hua would ignore me now that he has a harem..."

"No... but you can come over when you're on vacation. All the older sisters are here, it'll be quite lively."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely come. If I don't come now, I will come sooner or later... Brother Hua, please wait patiently for Yan Yi~"

Jiang Yanyi's words had a deeper meaning for me, but I couldn't understand them.

……

Instead of going to the office building immediately, I took out the business card that Ye Zhi's stepmother, Xiao Wan, had given me. This matter should be dealt with. Even if I can't explain the relationship between Ye Zhi and Lu Xiaojun, my cousins, I need to find out about Ye Zhi's biological mother. I've always felt that Ye Zhi has shifted almost all her attention to games, which is related to her mother, not to mention her terrible relationship with her father.

Chapter 127, Section 632: Past Events

2021-03-09T14:16:23

Xiao Wan happened to be free, so we arranged to meet at a KFC-themed store. It might seem strange that we didn't meet at a quieter place like a coffee shop. The main reason is that Ye Zhi's younger brother, Ye Zhun, asked his mother, Xiao Wan, to come to KFC. He said that if she shouted a certain "shameful" slogan to the staff when ordering food, she could receive a souvenir from a collaboration with a mobile game. Ye Zhun was at school, and Xiao Wan happened to be out, so we decided to meet there.

Of course, there weren't many people in the store at this time, so it wasn't too noisy. Xiao Wan walked back from the ordering counter with a slightly embarrassed expression, already holding the so-called collaboration souvenir in her hand. It was obvious that she had shouted the so-called "shameful" slogan...

I suddenly remembered that Ye Zhi seemed to play the mobile game "Yuan Shen" as well, so I asked Xiao Wan to wait for me a moment...

A few minutes later, I returned from the ordering counter, my face flushed, with a commemorative badge in my hand... (This doesn't take into account the reservation redemption code issue).

Xiao Wan looked at me with some surprise, seemingly wondering why I, at my age, was playing the same mobile game that 10-year-old Ye Zhun played... Actually, her stepdaughter Ye Zhi, who's 23, is playing it too... Games, who says adults can't play them?

"This is for Ye Zhi, she really likes this mobile game..." I felt it was necessary to explain.

However, my small gesture made Xiao Wan smile slightly and say, "It seems that you really care about Xiao Zhi, you even noticed such a small thing."

"Aunt Xiao, you may not know, but Ye Zhi is usually very good to me, so what I did is nothing. I feel it's worth it as long as it makes her a little happy."

Xiao Wan smiled slightly after hearing this and said nothing, then picked up her hot drink and took a sip elegantly.

With her graceful and charming demeanor and elegant and generous speech, one could tell from her appearance alone that she was a wealthy lady and a virtuous wife. At the age of thirty-two, she looked only in her early twenties, seven years older than me. But because of Ye Zhi, it was very awkward for me to call her Auntie.

Not only was I embarrassed, but Ye Zhi was even more embarrassed than me; she had to call Xiao Wan "Mom"...

The atmosphere was silent. Xiao Wan was waiting for me to speak first, but I gave the two set meals that we hadn't eaten to the children at another table. I had already eaten breakfast, and Xiao Wan also said that she didn't want to eat.

Back in my seat, I finally spoke, "Aunt Xiao, I'm really grateful that you came to listen to my explanation of my situation with my cousins..."

Xiao Wan sighed and said, "Xiao Zhi's father has been in a bad mood because of this, especially since his relationship with Xiao Zhi has become even more strained. If I were in the same situation as them, I would have an even bigger headache..."

After pondering for a moment, I said, "Actually, my relationship with Ye Zhilu and Xiaojun... is probably what people usually call a love triangle..."

I think this description, while not entirely accurate, isn't exactly deceptive either.

Xiao Wan seemed to have expected this, saying, "Even so, there's always a hierarchy in love, isn't there? Tu Sheng, didn't you get together with Xiao Jun first?"

"So this is my problem... I like Xiaojun and Yezhi at the same time, and they both like me, which is why we have this awkward situation now."

Xiao Wan has a good temper, but she shook her head and scolded him for being inappropriate, then asked, "So what do you plan to do next?"

Of course, I couldn't tell her my true thoughts directly, so I could only say ambiguously, "Although there isn't a good solution right now, I promise I won't make them sad or upset. There will be a solution that satisfies both sides... I need some time."

"Whether you end up with Xiaozhi or not, you should give her an answer as soon as possible. The longer you drag it out, the more it will hurt her, and that's not love for her... Of course, from a selfish point of view, I hope you can choose Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi is better than Xiaojun."

Aunt Xiao doesn't need to be selfish, because I want both of them...

I can only say it in my heart right now.

After a moment of silence, I asked about what I cared about most: "Aunt Xiao, I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell me about Ye Zhi's biological mother... because I've noticed that Ye Zhi's relationship with you as family members hasn't been very harmonious, and I'm quite worried about it."

Mentioning Ye Zhi's mother, Xiao Wan's expression became emotional, as if it had stirred her emotions. She took a sip of her hot drink and turned to look out the window as if recalling the past, her eyes filled with a myriad of emotions. After a while, she slowly said, "Besides my parents, Xiao Zhi's mother is the person I am most grateful to in my life. She was my teacher, my teacher when I was in college at the Academy of Fine Arts."

I was truly shocked. Ye Zhi's stepmother was actually her mother's student. What a melodramatic plot...

"Because Teacher Miao is a famous master in the field of ink painting, I often went to Teacher Miao to ask for advice on ink painting techniques during my university years. However, less than two years later, Teacher Miao was hospitalized due to serious illness, and I would go to the hospital on weekends to discuss ink painting with her. That's how I got to know Xiao Zhi and her father..."

Xiao Wan seemed to have never mentioned this matter to anyone before, but she suddenly told me a lot. Later, she gradually fell in love with Ye Zhi's father, Ye Chengmai, even though she knew he was her teacher's husband. But feelings are inexplicable, and she didn't dare to say it because she felt guilty towards her teacher. So she harbored a secret crush, but Ye Zhi's mother still found out...

Surprisingly, Ye Zhi's mother supported Xiao Wan and Ye Chengmai being together. She could see that Xiao Wan genuinely liked Ye Chengmai, and she knew that Xiao Wan, a student she had taught for so many years, was a very sensible and virtuous girl. At the same time, Xiao Wan also had a good relationship with Ye Zhi, who was only 13 years old at the time. Most importantly, Ye Zhi's mother was seriously ill and wouldn't live much longer, while Ye Chengmai was in the early stages of his career and needed a capable wife. So, after considering all these factors, Ye Zhi's mother agreed to let Xiao Wan and Ye Chengmai be together.

Ye Chengmai had long been aware of Xiao Wan's feelings for him, but he always pretended not to know. However, it wasn't until one day when Ye Zhi's mother pulled him and Xiao Wan in front of him and told them to take care of Ye Zhi together that Ye Chengmai underwent a huge change in his mindset...

Later, when Ye Zhi's mother wanted to explain the matter to Ye Zhi in person, she fell into a coma due to an emergency caused by her serious illness. As a result, Ye Zhi, who was in school at the time, was unable to see her mother one last time before her mother passed away.

Needless to say, Ye Zhi was deeply saddened. But when she later learned that Xiao Wan, whom she had always called her older sister, had become her stepmother, she seemed to become a completely different person. She disliked interacting with Ye Chengmai and Xiao Wan, stopped making friends, and spent all her time studying and playing video games, becoming someone who didn't want to be close to anyone...

Chapter 128, Section 633: A Gift for Adults

2021-03-09T14:18:06

After hearing the whole story, I realized that Xiao Wan wasn't the kind of mistress I'd imagined in a melodramatic soap opera. Her feelings for Ye Chengmai were just a secret crush, which was discovered by Ye Zhi's mother, who then tried to set them up. However, she passed away before she could explain things to Ye Zhi. Of course, Ye Zhi wouldn't listen to Xiao Wan and Ye Chengmai's explanations; she would only believe that Ye Chengmai had cheated on his wife with a young and beautiful mistress while she was seriously ill…

But I was on Ye Zhi's side, and of course I wouldn't easily believe Xiao Wan's words. I wasn't naive enough to believe her just because she seemed kind and gentle. But I didn't express my opinion either. Instead, I asked, "If that's the case, then Ye Zhi will remain in a state of confusion... Didn't Aunt Miao leave anything else behind?"

Xiao Wan nodded and said, "There are several videos of Teacher Miao on CDs, but those are copies that Teacher Miao left for Chengmai and Ye Zhi, one for each of them."
