Chapter- 1

”Accepting the task: Little Fool and the middle-aged version of Long Aotian [1]! Sending the plot!”

…

As the system prompt in his mind sounded, Yin Minglu slowly opened his eyes and found out that he was in a gray van with a bottle of mineral water in his hand. There were two men wearing glasses sitting in front of him. One of them was focused on driving while the other one was carrying a camera. The camera’s lens was pointed at him. It was so close that it almost stuck on his face.

Outside the window was the scenery of mountains and forests. Posters from the program group and sponsors were pasted on the van. Coupled with the presence of a camera, Yin Minglu immediately realized what program the original owner might be participating in.

It’s just that he didn’t know whether the original owner participated voluntarily or was forced. Before accepting the plot, Yin Minglu lowered his hea, andd chose not to move.

The attitude of the two people beside him was different from the others. One of them was a beautiful woman wearing a green cheongsam[2] with her hair tied up, revealing a section of her cold neck. The two bends of delicate eyebrows and the teardrops hanging from the corners of her eyes added a bit of pitifulness to the woman. For a while, people could not tell her true age.

Only her beauty, that the aging could not ruin could be seen.

The beautiful woman looked at him with tender eyes. She pulled him with her both hands reluctantly. Seeing him look dull and unresponsive, her tears couldn’t stop. Her tears fell sternly and those teardrops hit her cyan skirt, melting bit by bit.

Seeing the tears, the remaining emotions of the original owner in the body were affected, making Yin Minglu’s heart a bit distressed.

The tall and handsome middle-aged man next to him took the beautiful woman in his arms with pity. He gently wiped away the tears of the other party and spoke a few calming words from time to time. The atmosphere between the man and the woman was so ambiguous that it made Yin Minglu feel the space of the van being much narrower.

It was as if he was an unnecessary existence there.

He shrank silently to the corner of the car by the window. The original owner’s body didn’t have any good feelings for this man. But instead, there was even a bit of hidden fear.

As if he realized that his behavior was too explicit, the man retracted his hand. He clenched his fist to cover his lips and coughed a few times, and said to the staff in the car: “I will trouble you to take care of our child in these two months.”

He turned around and said to Yin Minglu warmly: “Minglu, go to the countryside for a few months obediently and stop throwing tantrums. Your mother loves you and is reluctant to leave you, but your uncle is also doing everything for you. You should also learn to grow up. You should know what should be done and what should not be done after leaving your mother.”

He talked about it for a long time. Seeing the child in front of him still keeping his head down and saying nothing, the man who didn’t get a response seemed to be used to it and was not discouraged. Instead, he smiled politely, like a loving elder. His thick palm patted the young boy’s slender shoulder.

The warm touch was passed over, but what made Yin Minglu uncomfortable was that although that patting felt just like comfort on the surface, it was an ambiguous touch inside. It seemed that the man was sensing the thin and slender shoulder of the young boy through the soft material. Those fingertips with thick calluses even lingered around his collarbone a few times

Yin Minglu frowned slightly. He avoided the other’s touch. On the surface, it looked as if nothing had happened, but the stormy sea had already turned up in his heart.

He looked at the original owner’s hand. Whether it was the joints or the size of the palm, it was quite different from that of the man. They were a pair of pampered hands, not rough at all. It was as if it wasn’t used at all. His fingernails were mellow and bright pinkish in color.
