The meal that Chu Chen, Shen Yu and Li Ruida ate could be called a feast for the host and guest.

  Chu Chen's personal ability was not bad.

  In dealing with the Chu family, Chu Chen had been planning for a long time. In his spare time, he had already come up with a fairly detailed plan, which was also in line with the current situation of the Chu family.

  The two elders looked at it with admiration, and added some details of the plan.

  The final plan came out and it was perfect.

  Shen Yu handed the plan to Chu Chen, and tentatively said, "Xiaochen is talented in this area. After the military service is over, do you want to go back to Wangcheng directly and work in the group?"

  Although Li Ran's mental riot had improved a lot, it hadn't completely healed.

  In the long history, there had never been a person who survived the mental riot and was safe and sound.

  It was a blessing in misfortune to be able to lengthen the battle line.

  Of course, Shen Yu wouldn't ask for more.

  She and Li Ruida had already discussed before Chu Chen came. After Li Ran left, since the two of them had no children, they would treat Chu Chen as their own son.

  Therefore Shen Yu asked Chu Chen this way, they wanted to see if Chu Chen was willing take over the group.

  Chu Chen seemed to feel something, and he smiled shyly: "Mom, I'm a university student now, and I don't have much plans for the future. Whether I can join the group or not depends on my future path. As you know, my current degree is not very good, and I don't have enough experience, I'm afraid that when the time comes to join the group, it will just hold you back."

  "What do you mean hold us back?" Shen Yu said, "When the time comes, I will say that you are my son, and see who dares to say nonsense."

  Chu Chen couldn't help laughing.

  Shen Yu unexpectedly could even speak about entering by the back door in the right and self-confident.

[走后门 zǒu hòu mén: lit. to enter by the back door; fig. to gain influence by pull or unofficial channels; back door or under the counter connections]

[理直气壮 lǐ zhí qì zhuàng: in the right and self-confident (idiom); bold and confident with justice on one's side; to have the courage of one's convictions; just and forceful]

  "And didn't I say to you before? When school starts, you will directly transfer to the school that Ran Ran was in before. I have already found a good relationship, and you will report directly. I'm sure you will be a high-achieving student when you come out." Shen Yu said.

  Chu Chen was taken aback.

  When Shen Yu mentioned this matter at the beginning, he thought that Shen Yu just mentioned it casually, but he didn't expect that she always took it to heart.

  Chu Chen hurriedly said, "Thank you, Mom."

  "Why are you being polite to Mom? By the way, Xiaochen will graduate in one year, so are you going to serve in the military?" Shen Yu asked again.

  Chu Chen nodded: "Yes."

  Shen Yu frowned, and then warned him: "During your military service, you must not perform too well."

  Chu Chen blinked.

  What do you mean by that?

  Shen Yu wanted to explain, but for some reason, she kept silent.

  Instead, Li Ruida next to him put down his chopsticks and said slowly, "There is one thing you may not know..."

        Shen Yu coughed heavily.

  Li Ruida glanced at her, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, Ran Ran has an older brother, he is a very rare high-level mental power warrior. You should have heard about military service. During military service, soldiers who perform well can get the opportunity to join the Alliance Army. Ran Ran's older brother also entered the barracks. At the beginning, he didn't want to make a high profile, but his mental power is really...attractive. In order to snatch the spot, everyone deliberately plotted against him, which made him mentally unstable, afterwards he could only stay in Wangcheng."

  In just a short paragraph, Li Ruida told everything that happened before, which was mixed with strong powerlessness and pain.

  Li Ruida sighed, and Shen Yu's face also full of pain.

  Both of them fell silent.

  Chu Chen also pursed his lips.

  It turned out that Li Ran... 

        Did he experienced mental riot after experiencing such a thing? 

  Chu Chen thought for a while and asked, "Parents, are you talking about Li Fen?"

  Shen Yu was taken aback and asked him: "Have you met him?"

  Li Ruida also looked at Chu Chen.

  "Yes." Chu Chen nodded, and said softly, "I met him a few times at home before."

  Shen Yu hesitated and said: "He has a bad temper, did he quarrel with you before?"

  Chu Chen recalled the interaction with Li Fen before. However in his mind, what he could remember the most was about Li Fen who was kissed by him, but he could only pretend to be Li Ran. No matter what Chu Chen did, he tried his best to endure it. Chu Chen's eyes softened, he smiled and said, "It's true that he has a bad temper, but he is Ran Ran's older brother after all, and we can get along pretty well."

  "Oh." Shen Yu said, "It's good if you can get along well."

  Shen Yu and Li Ruida didn't want to talk more about Li Fen, they only mentioned a few words, and then they were about to go to the meeting.

  After walking out of the office, Shen Yu glanced at Chu Chen behind him, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect Xiaochen has met Li Fen. Alas, I feel so depressed right now. Obviously I have already regarded Xiaochen as a family, but I can only lie to him like this, and I always feel a little uncomfortable."

  Li Ruida patted her on the back reassuringly: "You also know Li Fen's mental power, if this matter is leaked out, the Alliance will immediately guess the identity of Ran Ran, and the one who will suffer is Ran Ran. Maybe he can't even live for two years, so you are doing the right thing. Let's wait until Ran Ran leave in the future, then look at the situation, and confess to Chu Chen. Chu Chen will understand."

  "……It can only be like this."
