Wandering among the heavens, learning has no end.

Ji Yuan silently watched He Ziqiu.

He Ziqiu felt uneasy under the stare and calmed down: "You continue, you continue."

"Then I'll continue, don't get excited."

I know you're asking about your mother, so I asked someone to help me look into it too.

As Ji Yuan spoke, He Ziqiu became somewhat nervous.

He's not stupid. The fact that Ji Yuan told him about this means that Ji Yuan had found out about it.

"The message is right here, see for yourself."

Ji Yuan stepped aside and opened the chat history with 丿红颜丶你的残笑.

He Ziqiu immediately leaned his head closer.

A sentence that can be read in a few seconds took him several minutes to read, until his eyes were red and wet.

He Ziqiu rubbed his eyes, took out his phone, and looked like he wanted to make a call.

Ji Yuan immediately stopped He Ziqiu: "You want to call your mother?"

"Yes, she had an accident before, so she didn't come to see me. I understand her. But why doesn't she come to see me now that she's out?"

He Ziqiu asked somewhat excitedly.

"Sit down first, think about it yourself, you should be able to figure out why."

Ji Yuan pressed him down onto the bed.

He Ziqiu remained silent, looking down at his phone.

His mind is a bit confused right now, and he doesn't want to think about why, so he just wants to make a phone call and ask.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan simply said, "Let's be frank, if Aunt He Mei comes back looking for you, are you going to go with Aunt He Mei, or stay with Li Dad?"

"Of course...I..."

He Ziqiu wanted to stay here, but then he thought that if He Mei had really come back to find him before, he didn't know if he would go with her.

"So, you understand now, right? Your mom doesn't want to take you away from Li's dad."

Over the years, your second aunt, Aunt Helan, has told you many times to forget about your mother. Aunt Helan probably feels the same way as Aunt Hemei, that she can't let Li's father down.

We can't take him away from Li's father.

Ji Yuan continued.

He Ziqiu was speechless.

He Ziqiu's feelings were complicated; he finally knew the truth.

He was somewhat relieved that he hadn't been abandoned.

But he was also a little sad. He actually wanted to see his biological mother again, but as his second aunt had told him, he couldn't let his father be sad.

He was caught in a dilemma.

Ji Yuan continued, "After I had someone investigate the matter, I told you about it because I felt that there was no need to worry about it too much."

If you acknowledge your mother back, does that mean you'll abandon Li's father?

Definitely not. Aunt He Mei and the others felt that doing so would be unfair to Li's father.

But we know Li's father better. He'll only be happy for you; he won't think you're letting him down by acknowledging her as your biological mother.

Ji Yuan's words struck a chord with He Ziqiu.

His complicated feelings immediately eased considerably.

"So I think you can call Aunt He Mei back, and then everyone can have a chat together."

Ji Yuan suggested.

He Ziqiu was somewhat tempted by these words.

Ji Yuan continued, "Actually, this is what I think: why did Li's father and Aunt He Mei get to know each other in the first place?"

He Ziqiu replied, "A blind date?"

Ji Yuan nodded: "Yes, so I think you can try to matchmake Aunt He Mei and Dad Li. If they can get together, you won't have to worry about it at all. You three can even have your household registrations on the same book."

He Ziqiu stood up excitedly.

Don't say it, don't say it.

Ji Yuan's words immediately won him over.

He had always wanted to be Li Haichao's biological son. Since he couldn't be related by blood, he kept thinking that it would be great if he could be legally recognized as Li Haichao's father and son and be registered in the same household.

"Of course, don't get too excited yet. Whether Aunt He Mei and Dad Li can be together depends on themselves."

Even if you can't be together, you can still try to persuade Aunt He Mei to come back. It shouldn't be too difficult. If Aunt He Mei sees you, she will definitely feel indebted to you. If you ask her to return to Xiamen, she definitely won't refuse.

If I can persuade Aunt He Mei to come back, I will rent apartment 301 upstairs to her first.

In this way, even if Aunt He Mei and Uncle Li can't live together anymore, they'll still be neighbors living upstairs and downstairs. Your mom will be upstairs and your dad downstairs, which is the same thing for you, except that your household registrations won't be on the same book anymore.

Since Ji Yuan started making money through novels, apartment 301 upstairs has stopped being rented out.

"I'll call her right now."

He Ziqiu picked up his phone to make another call.

Ji Yuan stopped He Ziqiu again: "Making a phone call is not as effective as going in person."

Summer vacation still has some time left, let's go to Shenzhen, it's not far anyway.

"This...would Dad agree to this?"

He Ziqiu also really wanted to meet his mother in person, but he was afraid that Li Haichao would not agree to the two of them traveling far away.

"Just don't tell Li's father. Let's get this over with quickly."

"We'll tell Li's dad that we're going to visit your classmate's house, but since it's far away, we'll be staying for a few days."

Ji Yuan continued.

"Okay, when are we leaving?"

"I'll talk to Li's dad tomorrow."

He Ziqiu nodded, and the two discussed their next move.

It was getting late, so He Ziqiu went home.

On the way back, Ji Yuan told him not to call in advance.

They had to catch He Mei off guard, so that she wouldn't have time to think and would be persuaded to come back by He Ziqiu.

……

The next day.

Ji Yuan arrived at the noodle shop, which had been under construction for some time, and Li Haichao would come over every day to oversee it.

Although Ji Yuan told He Ziqiu that he would keep it from Li Haichao, he couldn't possibly keep it from Li Haichao.

This matter seems to be just between He Ziqiu and He Mei, but it is actually also Li Haichao's business.

Although he knew that Li Haichao would definitely support He Ziqiu in recognizing He Mei as his biological mother.

But no matter what, he had to tell Li Haichao first, and he couldn't make a decision for Li Haichao on his own.

He told Li Haichao about what happened yesterday, but didn't mention that he wanted to matchmake Li Haichao and He Mei.

Needless to say, they'll be living upstairs and downstairs from now on. Whether they can get together depends on whether Li Haichao and He Mei are destined to be together.

Therefore, Ji Yuan simply told Li Haichao that he wanted to call Aunt He Mei back to Xiamen Island to live in apartment 301 upstairs from him. That way, after He Ziqiu recognized his biological mother, he wouldn't have to be separated from either his mother or his father.

Li Haichao naturally agreed after hearing this, and he didn't want to put He Ziqiu in a difficult position.

If He Mei were to move to Jin Ding Lane, then there would be no need to make things difficult for her.

He just wasn't too keen on letting Ji Yuan and He Ziqiu go to Pengcheng on their own, and wanted to say that he would take the two children with him.

However, Ji Yuan declined, saying that Li Haichao still needed to oversee the renovation of the noodle shop, and told Li Haichao that he had friends in Pengcheng and that Li Haichao didn't need to worry.

After being persuaded, Li Haichao thought that with Ji Yuan's intelligence and fighting skills, there shouldn't be any problems.

Having lived together for so long, he was very clear about Ji Yuan's intelligence and fighting skills.

After informing Li Haichao, Ji Yuan left.
