"What?" asked Jun Mogami.
"What you just did...was that planned?" Mayu looked at Mogami Jun with a complicated look.
"How is that possible? I'm not a violent person." Mogami Jun shook his head. "I'm just improvising. I'm going to let the chairman and those two people choose their sides. They can only support me."
After a pause, he added, "You may not believe it, but I hate this too."
"Terrible determination..." Zhenyou smiled bitterly. "I believe you don't look happy at all."
The two continued walking forward.
"You...you are here to help me get rid of this, right?" She asked in a low voice after a long while. "Now Rino-chan won't dare to do anything to me anymore."
"That's one of my purposes, to some extent." Mogami Jun answered easily. "But it's mainly for myself."
Takasaki Mayu lowered her head.
Unconsciously, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
"Damn it... Damn it...!" She suddenly raised her head and looked at Mogami Jun fiercely, "Why? Why can you be so casual and still be so dazzling! And I... and I have to smile and please others! Why?"
As if to vent her anger, she yelled at Mogami Jun, "Why can you be like this?! I'm jealous of you, I hate you!"
Jun Mogami was a little confused by Mayu's outburst.
If it were normal, he would definitely retort to the other party, but today, he was not in such a mood.
Instead, he reached out his hand, touched the other person's head, and gently rubbed it a few times.
"What a kid."
Zhenyou felt even more angry when her hair was touched, but she couldn't find the words to fight back.
"We are obviously the same age!" she finally fought back forcefully.
Seeing that she was obviously deflated but still unwilling to admit defeat, Mogami Jun couldn't help but burst out laughing.
“Hahahaha, okay, same age.”

"Damn it..." His smile made Mayu even more uncomfortable, and she lowered her head.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Mogami Jun shrugged lightly, "See you tomorrow."
Then he put his hands back into his pockets, quickened his pace, and showed the other person his dashing back.
This time he really did it on purpose.
How many young men don't want to show off in front of a beautiful girl?
43. Born as a human being
After teasing Takasaki Mayu, Mogami Jun left generously, leaving the other party with a handsome back.
He walked to Kita-Akabane Station along his usual route and started his journey home.
Because of today's series of events, when he returned home, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening. However, he usually came back around this time, so it didn't seem abrupt.
And even at this time, Jun Mogami has always been the first person to come back home.
But today was a little different. When he opened the door, he found that the lights in the living room were already on, and his father, Saigami Qing, was already sitting on the sofa in the living room.
With the sound of the door opening, Zui Shangqing's sight instantly fell on his son at the door.
"I'm back." He whispered.
His expression was as calm as usual, his voice was flat and there was no emotion in it.
However, the fact that he returned home so early, which was rare, already explained a lot of things...
That’s right, the chairman will definitely inform him about such a big thing.
While thinking in his mind, Jun Mogami silently took off his shoes at the entrance, put on slippers, and walked to the sofa where his father was sitting.
Saigami Qing looked up at his son, and after a moment, he pointed to the sofa opposite the coffee table.
"Sit down, you must be very tired today."
"Thank you." Jun Mogami replied in a low voice and sat down.
"You must have guessed it. I came back today because I received a notice from Chairman Horikawa." After he sat down, Mogami Kiyoshi looked at Mogami Jun again and said calmly, "But you probably don't know how he evaluated you."
"May I ask what he thinks of me?" asked Jun Mogami.
"He said that you live up to your grandfather's and my expectations, and are even a bit like Cao Mengde in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms." Zuishangqing still had a calm expression, but there seemed to be a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Huh?" Mogami Jun was a little surprised. "I... no matter what I do, I can't compare with such a great man who has left his name in history. It's too exaggerated."
To be honest, although he thinks highly of himself, Mogami Jun still feels that he does not deserve this evaluation.
In addition, if it is the version starring Bao Guoan, it would be pretty good, but if it is the version starring Chen Jianbin... forget it.
"When people get older, they will appreciate talent, and it is quite normal to praise young people." Saigami Qing just smiled faintly and did not take it seriously. "Besides, he said this on purpose to please you and me and let us keep the secret for him. What he is most afraid of now is that the matter will be leaked and the reputation of the school and the Horikawa family will be ruined."
"I see, I understand." Mogami Jun suddenly realized. "I promised him that I would never leak it. I didn't intend to tell anyone about this."
"Then let's talk about how to deal with the aftermath." Mogami Kiyoshi changed the subject and looked at Mogami Jun seriously, "You did something very bold."
"I admit it." Mogami Junya bowed his head and admitted his mistake honestly, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
"No, I will not blame you for your actions, nor will I scold you for doing so. Although the means were a bit violent, you did nothing wrong." Mogami Kiyoshi shook his head. "Since you have a reason, then go ahead and do it. The Mogami family is not to the point where they need to be afraid of a child! My son did nothing wrong. Even if Councillor Fukuyama really asks, I will answer like this. Besides, he doesn't have the face to ask."
Mogami Jun was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his usually strict father would be so easy to talk to this time.
Normally, whenever he had a minor conflict with others, even if he was not responsible, he would scold himself and tell himself not to fight with others and to focus on his studies. How come he changed his tune today when I had done such a big thing?
"Jun, I usually scold you because I hope you can do better, but on this issue, I will fully support you and will not let you get discouraged or damage your self-esteem. Parents should never stand idly by when their children need support the most." As if he saw what his son was thinking, Mogami Kiyoshi said calmly, "Chairman Horikawa has already promised me that this matter will only be handled within the school. You and Fukuyama Akiya should solve the dispute yourselves. Neither I nor the Fukuyama family will interfere."
"But..." Just when Mogami Jun was relieved, Mogami Qing suddenly raised his voice a few degrees, then stood up and stared at Mogami Jun, "Jun, don't think you are omnipotent, you have to face the essence of the problem! What is the essence of the problem? Even though you have preserved your dignity and justice, in the final analysis, you are relying on me and your grandfather. You are not as detached as you appear!"
He frowned and looked at his son with great pressure. He was completely different from the indifferent official. "Isn't it? Why can you talk to the chairman? Is it because you are smart or because your last name is Mogami? Why can you make Fukuyama Ming consider you? Is it because you are smart or because your last name is Mogami? Everything you get today is because of your smart or because your last name is Mogami? If you didn't have the convenient conditions created for you by your grandfather and me, you wouldn't be able to display your talents, right? Chun, answer me!"
After pausing for a second, Mogami Jun nodded heavily.
It’s not that I’m afraid of my father’s anger, but because what my father said is absolutely correct and irrefutable.
"Yes, you are so smart that of course I can see that. It is because of the efforts of our two generations that you can control your own resources and do what you want to do. You are walking on the shoulders of our two generations." Saigami Qing took a deep breath and sat down again. "I don't deny that you have walked beautifully, but in the final analysis, you still have to rely on us."
Then, he raised his head again and stared at the ceiling in a trance. "I don't blame you, son. The struggles and efforts of our two generations are just to allow you to live so wantonly. But you have to know that the conditions we created are not unlimited. Unless you fight for it yourself, otherwise, when I grow old, how many people will still care about the title of the best? Since you have used this title, you have the obligation to add luster to it."
After hearing this, Mogami Jun already understood what his father meant.
What he taught himself tirelessly was the path that had always been pointed out to him.
He wants to continue to carry forward the Mogami family and let the efforts of two generations of the Mogami family truly bear fruit. Even if the road is full of thorns, he hopes his son will continue to move forward.
Inheriting the long-cherished wish of two generations, he reached the pinnacle of bureaucracy.
"Most parents in the world want their children to live a better life, but because of the limitations of their own positions, they can usually only give the best answer in their own worldview. This may be the root cause of the conflict between parents and children, because the worldview of children may not be consistent with that of their parents. What parents think is good, children always think is not good." Mogami Qing smiled bitterly, "But Chun, for your conditions and wishes, I really can't find a better way. No matter what, you should believe that I am the person in the world who most wants you to live a good life."
"You are not only walking that path for me, but also for your grandfather, Jun." Mogami Qing was silent for a moment and then spoke again, "Son, I understand your self-esteem, but in this world, it is a luxury to want complete dignity, especially since your self-esteem is several levels higher than others. So in order to maintain your self-esteem, you must be a human being, a good human being, and a person that everyone respects."
Of course, Mogami Jun could understand what the "person" his father was referring to was.
He was always very calm, but this time he was unusually upset.
Over the past decade, he has communicated with his father countless times, but never has his father spoken so earnestly and sincerely.
Maybe it is now that he really regards himself as a person with whom he can communicate on an equal footing. This is proof of his growth.
At the same time, his father's words made so much sense that he couldn't even find much to refute.
Dignity has never been easily obtained. If you want to protect your dignity, you have to fight. Whether in the examination room or in the workplace, he has seen this fact.
No matter what, the Mogami family gave him everything he has now, and he has the obligation to add more glory to this small family. Even if he can't shine brightly, at least he can't let its pearl be covered in dust.
"Even if you don't want to go along with the crowd, you should understand that it takes a lot of effort to implement the so-called justice. It is definitely not something that can be solved by a young man saying a few nice words." Saigami Qing continued to teach earnestly, "Maybe you look down on some of my actions, but it is precisely because both of our generations have done so that you are qualified to look down on us from a higher position. You must never forget this, Chun, don't waste the stepping stones that Dad has paved for you."
After saying this, Zuishangqing said no more, but just looked at his son calmly, waiting for his reply.
He also knew that his son would make the right choice.
The novel of Xianxun: The story of the nine clams of the angel
Because, this is the son of Zuishangqing.
"Dad, I understand. I will try my best." Finally, he heard an answer.
Saigami Qing smiled. This was the answer he wanted to hear.
That’s enough.
With a much more relaxed mood, he took out his mobile phone, pulled up a photo, and placed it in front of Jun Mogami.
Mogami Jun saw it at a glance. It was a photo of Sagihara Shion. The chairman must have told him about it.
"I heard that you have been in close contact with this classmate recently?" asked Zui Shangqing.
"Yes." Mogami Jun answered hesitantly, "This senior has a very good personality and has helped me a lot. Now I meet her occasionally to discuss novels..."
"No need to explain." Saigami Qing waved his hand, "I don't care who you associate with, just try not to affect your grades. Although your grades are good, it's not that easy to get into the University of Tokyo."
It was let off so easily...
"I understand." Jun Mogami breathed a sigh of relief and nodded immediately.
"I was young once, too, son. We are still alumni." Mogami Kiyoshi sighed, looking somewhat nostalgic. "If possible, I also hope that you can enjoy your youth as much as possible, but this must end with you being admitted to the University of Tokyo. Do you understand?"
Mogami Jun nodded again.
Suddenly, he recalled the young man in the photo who was once full of vigor and vitality, and the appearance in his memory overlapped with the person sitting opposite him on the sofa.
Father.
Although he is only the father of this life, he is still a father.
Maybe he was really putting a lot of pressure on himself, maybe he was not good at communicating, but he only hoped that he could live a better life, and that was absolutely true.
"I'm sorry, father, for causing you trouble." He stood up, bowed deeply to the other party, and apologized sincerely.
"It's nothing. If you are proud, then do your best to protect your pride, son." Saigami Qing also stood up and patted his shoulder. "Besides, Dad has always been proud of you."
Saigami Qing quickly stopped, then walked towards his room to rest without looking back.
For the introverted Mogami, this might be the limit.
44. Reconciliation
With a heart full of emotion, Jun Mogami returned to his room in silence, just like his father.
This was the first time in his life that he had communicated with his father like this. And only on that night, his father did not say "You must do..." in a condescending and commanding tone, but analyzed the situation for him from the bottom of his heart, allowing him to see the path he should take.
It was also the first time that my father said he was proud of me.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't touched at all.
However, being moved is useless; action is what is important.
He believed he could take the necessary action, just as he always had.
The next day, he came to school. Everything was so normal on the way to school. After arriving at school, everything seemed to be a repeat of yesterday. Only a few people knew that just one day ago, he had disrupted a rare collective cheating incident within the school and found out the mastermind behind the scenes - and even beat the other person up personally.
This incident has now been handled by the chairman himself and has disappeared into thin air.
The classmates were still chatting and laughing as usual, but he was sitting quietly on the side, a bit like an unsung hero who was silently protecting the academy.
"Jun, what are you daydreaming about?" Kenji Sugishita interrupted the boy's middle school fantasy.
"I was thinking...you don't have to thank me, this is what I should do." Mogami Jun answered very honestly.
"Ah?" This irrelevant answer made Sugishita Kenji open his eyes wide. He subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch Mogami Jun's forehead, "You don't have a fever today, do you?"
"Of course I'm healthy!" Jun Mogami blocked the other person's hand.
"Eh..." Kenji Sugishita did not take any further action, but opened his mouth in surprise.
Jun Mogami felt a little strange, then he followed his gaze and looked to the side, and then he was a little surprised.
Because the person standing in front of him was clearly Takasaki Mayu.
"Jun-chan, good morning~" Takasaki Mayu greeted him with a smile.
