"You bastard!" Qin Zhoumu got up from the ground in a rage and punched Qin Zhouyu.

The punch left Qin Zhouyu's right cheek almost numb. He turned around and immediately slapped Qin Zhoumu across the face, scolding, "Are you awake yet?"

Qin Zhoumu lowered his head, rubbing his slapped cheek, glaring at Qin Zhouyu with hatred, and cursed: "You're the one who needs to wake up."

"Get out, don't make me say it a third time."

Governor Qin was so enraged that he started speaking without thinking, "You cold-blooded monster! No wonder Sister Liang Qing dumped you. How can you treat her even a fraction of what Song Zhiji treated her? What can you do all day except wear a deadpan face?"

"When Song Zhiji heard that she was injured, he was so anxious that he was out of his mind. In order to get to the hospital as soon as possible, he packed his things faster than Xu Xi and I combined. He was so anxious that he was restless in the car. As soon as he got out of the car, he disappeared. At first, Xu Xi and I were puzzled. When we got to the ward, we found out that he rushed over as soon as he got out of the car."

"I'm so glad Liang Qing broke up with you, otherwise she would have ended up like me, just like my parents, being abandoned by you so easily!"

Perhaps still not enough excitement, he added, "I really hate myself for meddling. If I had known, I shouldn't have bothered them on the mountain. If it weren't for me, they might be together by now."

Unfortunately, his barrage of words had no effect on Qin Zhouyu. After listening to them, he only glanced at him indifferently, as if he had just watched a boring performance.

He walked up to Governor Qin and asked him, "Have you finished speaking?"

Governor Qin retorted, "No!"

He had barely finished speaking when Qin Zhouyu lifted him up, and before he could even adjust to being suspended in mid-air, he was put down again.

He stood outside the door, not understanding what was going on, when Qin Zhouyu slammed the door shut.

Qin Zhoumu was so angry that he twisted the handle, only to find that it was locked from the inside. He was even more furious and was about to kick the door open when Kang Ruoxi's sleepy face suddenly flashed through his mind. So he had no choice but to give up and return to his room with a belly full of anger.

The next morning, when I went downstairs, I saw that bastard Qin Zhouyu sitting at the dining table having breakfast with his parents.

Kang Ruoxi was eating breakfast when she caught a glimpse of a figure on the stairs out of the corner of her eye. She quickly called out, "Governor, come and have breakfast."

Qin Zhoumu suppressed his anger, smiled, and greeted Kang Ruoxi, "Mom, good morning."

Walking to the dining table, he saw Qin Xiaojing, who had returned at an unknown time, and said, "Dad, good morning."

Upon seeing him, Qin Xiaojing's serious face softened with affection. "Yes, sit down."

Qin Zhoumu pulled out the chair next to Qin Zhouyu and sat down. Seeing him eating breakfast as if no one else was there, his anger flared up again, but with his parents still in front of him, he had no choice but to shut up and eat obediently.

The breakfast that usually tastes delicious just tasted bland and tasteless today.

Halfway through his meal, Qin Xiaojing suddenly asked, "The governor's college entrance exam results are out, right? Which school did he apply to?"

Kang Ruoxi smiled and said, "I came out a long time ago. I applied to X University, the same one as Zhou Yu. Since we're in the same school, the two of us can take care of each other if anything happens."

Qin Xiaojing was delighted to hear that both of his sons had been admitted to the best universities in the country. "That's great. Zhouyu, please take good care of your younger brother at school."

Qin Zhouyu replied, "Understood."

Upon hearing his reply, Governor Qin sneered inwardly. He was about to go to England; how could he possibly care about him?

He never treated him like a younger brother at all; otherwise, why would he suddenly leave and never come back?

The thought of him leaving made me feel increasingly uneasy and I lost my appetite even more.

When Qin Xiaojing heard Qin Zhouyu agree, he glanced at him and noticed that his right cheek was a little red and swollen. He couldn't help but ask, "What happened to your face?"

"I accidentally fell last night."

Qin Xiaojing nodded and instructed, "Then remember to apply some medicine."

"understood."

Qin Zhoumu felt a little guilty listening to their conversation. He had indeed acted impulsively last night and shouldn't have hit him. But didn't his brother slap him back?

That should even things out, right?

The more Qin Zhoumu thought about it, the more upset he became. He quickly finished what was in his bowl and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm full. I'm going upstairs now."

Kang Ruoxi asked in surprise, "Why are you eating so little today?"

Governor Qin made up a casual excuse, saying, "My stomach is a little upset."

Qin Xiaojing frowned slightly upon hearing this and said, "Are you feeling unwell? Come sit in the living room for a while, and Dad will drive you to the hospital to get checked out later."

Kang Ruoxi disagreed and said to Qin Xiaojing, "I'd better take the governor with me. You worked all night and only just got home. You should get some rest."

Qin Xiaojing felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this. He took Kang Ruoxi's hand, patted it gently, and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

Kang Ruoxi blushed and softly agreed.

Qin Zhouyu stood up from his chair and said expressionlessly, "I'm full, I'm going upstairs now."

After saying that, he walked past Governor Qin and went up the stairs.

Qin Zhoumu immediately lost his spirits. Looking at his parents who were still being affectionate, he said, "No one needs to take me. I can take my medicine myself."

After saying that, he ignored what they were saying and went straight upstairs.

Qin Zhouyu sat by the bay window, head down, waiting for the call to connect.

"Beep, beep." After two beeps, the call connected.

Qin Zhouyu's voice was a little hoarse, "Hello, Mom."

Bo Jiangdai noticed the strangeness in his voice and asked with concern, "What's wrong? My precious son."

"It's nothing, Mom. I have something I want to tell you."

……

After Qin Zhouyu hung up the phone, there were two knocks on the door, followed by Kang Ruoxi saying from outside, "Zhouyu, it's Aunt Kang. May I come in for a moment?"

Qin Zhouyu climbed down from the bay window, opened the door, stepped aside to let Kang Ruoxi in, pointed to the small sofa in front of the small coffee table, and said in a low voice, "Sit down, Aunt Kang."

Kang Ruoxi waved her hand and refused, saying, "No, Auntie just has something to tell you, and I'll leave after I finish."

"Okay, Aunt Kang, what do you want to tell me?"

Kang Ruoxi looked at Qin Zhouyu with some unease, "Were you arguing with the governor last night?"

"No," Qin Zhouyu denied, "We just had a few words exchanged, and it'll be fine in a few days."

"Did the governor slap you in the face?"

Qin Zhouyu did not answer.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Kang Ruoxi understood. She said cautiously, "Your father and I have spoiled the governor. He's become more and more unruly. Auntie will teach him a lesson later. Please don't be angry with him."
