The cause of the incident is more or less traceable, and Yang Zhongyun's special care for Yu Zhinian is the same.

When Yang Ke and Yu Zhinian lived in the same house, Yang Ke had several chances to spy on the reason, or to discover more strange things about Yang Zhongyun, but at that time, Yang Ke never connected the things together. It was only regarded as a relatively long-lasting abnormal behavior of Yang Zhongyun, so he missed it.

On the day when Yu Zhinian came to Yang Ke's house for one year, Yang Zhongyun held a small family banquet.

He invited a few close friends, as well as his most trusted secretary, Li Lu, to his home to celebrate the eerie anniversary.

The restaurant that had been arranged by someone looked dim, and in the corner of the floor-to-ceiling windows facing Yang Ke, there were piles of gifts from Yang Zhongyun to Yu Zhinian.

He opened a bottle of precious wine, raised his glass to toast, and shared with his friends the changes that Yu Zhinian brought to the family after he came home, Yu Zhinian's progress, his grades in various subjects, teachers' comments on him, and their vision for the future.

His friends raised wine to bless Yu Zhinian.

Yu Zhinian was wearing a custom-made suit and had just had his hair cut. He expressed his gratitude to them jerky but hard, and then cut the anniversary cake.

He passed a circle of cakes, and finally gave the cakes to Yang Ke. Yang Ke looked up at him, and he showed a not obvious smile to Yang Ke.

Yang Ke was bored with this scene, took a few mouthfuls, and wanted to find an excuse to go upstairs, but as soon as he put down his chopsticks, Yu Zhinian immediately looked at him as if he had been paying attention to him, and cast a begging look, hoping that he would not Walk.

He stayed on anyway until the anniversary was coming to an end.

Fortunately, the day after the anniversary ended, Yang Zhongyun went to Europe.

The trip is expected to last fifteen to twenty days. He originally wanted to bring Yu Zhinian along, but for some reason he didn't.As soon as he left, the atmosphere at home immediately became relaxed.Yu Zhinian also lost a lot of restraint.

When Yang Ke was swimming, he sometimes didn't have class, so he would come to the swimming pool and sit quietly on the lounge chair by the pool to watch, but he didn't go into the water.

As far as Yang Ke knows, Yu Zhinian has already learned to swim, and his swimming style is not ugly, but it has not achieved the effect of muscle growth he expected.

He has grown at least ten centimeters taller, and the height gap between him and Yang Ke has been significantly shortened. He has adapted to school life, and his language and grades have improved by leaps and bounds. He is no longer the malnourished poor student who just arrived at Yang Ke's house.

He is very popular in the school. When Yang Ke went home with him, he also encountered a love letter to Yu Zhinian from someone.

Yang Ke also doesn't hate Yu Zhinian.He felt that Yu Zhinian often acted stupidly, but he didn't get bored, and sometimes he was even sympathetic.

A year has passed, and Yang Zhongyun's desire to control Yu Zhinian has not diminished at all.

After school, Yu Zhinian was much less free than Yang Ke. He was either making up lessons, or studying with Yang Zhongyun in his study. He often didn't return to his room until twelve o'clock.

The communication between the two is also almost limited to the car, and some text messages sent out of boredom.

Going to school in winter, Yu Zhinian would sometimes fall asleep in the car.One time, Yang Ke saw him wake up from a 10-minute sleep and wiped the saliva from his mouth.

On the fourth day after Yang Zhongyun left, it was the day when Zhao Sibei came to pick up Yang Ke.

Not long after leaving in Zhao Sibei's car, Yang Ke received a message from Yu Zhinian.

Yu Zhinian asked Yang Ke where he was going to play today.It is boring to say that I have no class.

Yu Zhinian is a person who knows how to keep silent at the right time.Except for the first time, every month when Yang Ke left on weekends, he never asked about it again.

He is good at selective curiosity, like a ruler in his nature to communicate with others, so even if he often harasses Yang Ke when he is bored, Yang Ke still finds it difficult for him to be annoying.

Maybe it was because of Yu Zhinian's pitiful appearance when he was forced to attend the anniversary ceremony a few days ago, or maybe it was because there was really nothing to hide, Yang Ke replied: "Go skiing with my biological father."

Yu Zhinian sent "wow" and "I really envy", but didn't ask any more questions, as if he knew the boundaries of the question, just like he had never asked where Yang Ke's parents were.Yang Ke thought that this was also the reason why he felt that Yu Zhinian was different from others.

"You don't like skiing." Yang Ke thought of Yu Zhinian standing there with a face of not wanting to move when he went skiing in the north together in winter, and replied to him.

Coincidentally, Zhao Sibei happened to notice Yang Ke chatting that day, and asked who Yang Ke was messaging with.

Yang Ke told him "Yu Zhinian", "Said he was bored and asked me where to go".

Zhao Sibei was very concerned about Yu Zhinian, and would often ask Yang Ke about his situation, and sometimes make Yang Ke worry about Yu Zhinian's state.

Yang Ke suspects that Zhao Sibei has bad doubts about Yang Zhongyun's motivation for funding, but according to Yang Ke, Yang Zhongyun has no such signs yet.

Zhao Sibei drove the car in silence for a while, then suddenly asked, "Did your grandfather go to Europe for a business trip?"

Yang Ke said yes, and Zhao Sibei suddenly suggested, "Yang Ke, how about we bring Yu Zhinian out for dinner?"

For some reason, Yang Ke did not resist his father's statement that day.

He thought for a while, and called Yu Zhinian: "My dad asked if you want to come together?"

Yu Zhinian immediately agreed, and he sounded very happy. Then, he paused, and then said, "Tell the butler, can I go with you?"

The next second, he said again: "Let's not talk about it, just say that I'm going to have dinner with my classmates. I'll come out and go to the street sign."

Zhao Sibei turned around and drove back.

It was getting dark, and they waited for nearly 10 minutes at the road sign some distance from the gate of the villa, before Yu Zhinian wore short sleeves and pants, trotted all the way to the side of the car, opened the door, and sat in.

The weather was very hot, Yu Zhinian broke out in a thin sweat and panted slightly.

Zhao Sibei turned around and greeted Yu Zhinian.

Yu Zhinian was unusually shy, and whispered, "Hello, Uncle, I'm Yu Zhinian."

He spoke very well, and his expression was more vivid than when he was talking to Yang Zhongyun. He leaned forward, looked at Zhao Sibei, and then at Yang Ke.

"Why are you so slow?" Yang Ke asked him.

"The driver just wanted to see me off, saying that the weather was hot," Yu Zhinian told Yang Ke slowly, "I said for a long time that my classmates were coming to pick me up. I was bored at home all day and wanted to walk, so I didn't come out .”

"Isn't it convenient to tell the truth after a meal?" Zhao Sibei suddenly asked.

Yu Zhinian hesitated slightly, and said simply: "I don't feel very good."

"Grandpa sometimes..." Yu Zhinian said, "I don't know if he will be unwilling, let's talk about having dinner together."

Yang Ke understood what he meant.

Yang Zhongyun's permission standard for Yu Zhinian to go out has no reason to rely on.

Once Yu Zhinian wanted his classmates to go on a trip to the mountains overnight, but Yang Zhongyun agreed without going on a business trip; sometimes it was just a club activity, and when he came home later, Yang Zhongyun had a gloomy face.

Zhao Sibei and Yang Zhongyun had been together for a short time, and they probably knew a little bit, so they drove forward without asking any more questions.

Yu Zhinian sat for a while, moved forward slightly, looked at Yang Ke, then at Yang Ke's father, and said, "Uncle, Yang Ke looks alike to you."

Yang Ke glanced at him, and Yu Zhinian said again: "Does Yang Ke need to be taller?"

"You talk too much." Yang Ke said to him.

Yu Zhinian made a very contrived expression of grievance, returned to his seat, and after a few seconds, couldn't help asking Yang Ke: "Where shall we go for dinner?"

"Go to the newly opened indoor ski resort," Zhao Sibei told him, and then asked, "Zhi Nian, can you ski?"

"A little bit." Yu Zhinian said.

Yang Ke added for him: "I can only barely slide on the slowest ramp."

Yu Zhinian said "yes" without blushing.

Zhao Sibei said, "You can learn a little bit more."

Yu Zhinian said "Yes", and Zhao Sibei praised him, "Zhi Nian, you are more lively than I imagined", and asked, "Where are you from?"

"Sanwen," Yu Zhinian replied, "it's far away, in the south of Xi'an Province. Many people don't know about it."

"I have been to Sanwen City," said Zhao Sibei. "A few years ago, my colleague was doing field research there, and I went to see him once."

Yu Zhinian showed a curious expression.

Zhao Sibei briefly introduced his discipline and daily work to Yu Zhinian.Yu Zhinian was very interested.

In the restaurant of the ski resort, he kept asking Zhao Sibei questions.

The restaurant was full of people, and there were a few children who came to ski, chasing and playing in the aisle.It's like two worlds with the quiet villa that seems to be dying.

You have to raise your voice so that the other party can hear you clearly.

Most of the time, Yang Ke just watched Yu Zhinian talking with his father.

Yu Zhinian couldn't stay out at night, so at eight o'clock, he received a call from the driver, asking if he wanted to pick it up.

Together with Yang Ke, Zhao Sibei sent Yu Zhinian back to the street sign, and they left when they saw Yu Zhinian walk into the corner of the gate.

As soon as the car drove, Yang Ke received a message from Yu Zhinian. Yu Zhinian said, "Your father is so kind."

This was the first time Yu Zhinian and Zhao Sibei met, and it was also the first time Yang Ke shared his father with his friends.

Things have been quite satisfactory up to this point, if not for the black card for private training courses in ski resorts that Yang Zhongyun gave Yu Zhinian after returning from Europe.

A few years later, when Yang Ke seldom looks back on the past, he will think of how he got along with Yu Zhinian in the first place.

Yu Zhinian has been involved in many of Yang Ke's private lives.

Yang Ke didn't want to mention this to himself, but they were once close.

During the few years in Ning City, he often witnessed Yu Zhinian bumping into a wall in front of Yang Zhongyun, Yu Zhinian's bewilderment and difficulties, and Yu Zhinian gradually entered the field that he did not open to others.It's like an exchange of secrets triggered by the rebellion between the two adolescents caused by Yang Zhongyun.
