He Mingrun quickly pushed the door open and saw He Mingxin playing a game, his face flushed and his neck red as he stared at the screen, looking on the verge of collapse.
"You brat, what are you doing? Is it that serious to play a game? I thought you were being sleep-paralyzed."
He wasn't very keen on games; he'd rather watch CEO dramas in this time.
They were so engaging!
If he had a girlfriend, he would definitely spend more time with her.
Hearing his brother's voice, He Mingxin immediately found a savior.
"Brother, quickly, give me a reward and defeat this arrogant kid for me."
He Mingrun heard this and got a little angry, "You're calling me all night for this?"
He Mingxin glanced at him, "Brother, do you think I'd have any other reason to find you?"
He Mingrun: "Sorry, I'm bothering you."
He turned to leave.
He Mingxin watched his elder brother leave and shouted with wide eyes, "Brother, aren't you going to give me a reward?"
He Mingrun stopped, turned around, and looked at him indifferently, "Why should I give you a silly reward? Isn't it better to save the money to chase a girlfriend? You carry on, please push through all obstacles and head towards your glory."
He Mingxin: "..." So, he just didn't understand.
What did his elder brother mean?
"Brother, are you serious?" Seeing his elder brother about to leave, he shouted with heartache. How come his elder brother didn't dote on him anymore now that he had grown up.
He Mingrun was in a good mood today and patiently stopped, turned around, and replied, "Xiao Xin, keep it up. Doing what you love to the extreme is the greatest value."
He Mingxin didn't understand again. Where did his elder brother get so much chicken soup to feed him tonight?
"No, brother, this chicken soup doesn't work for me. Give me a reward. I've been number one for several years and suddenly a young kid snatched the first place. I'm feeling upset. I just sent him a challenge and I was beaten down by him. Brother, he's just too much!"
He Mingrun understood; his brother had clearly not grown up at all.
He Mingrun asked him, "He Mingxin, where has the money I've given you all these years gone?"
He Mingxin: "I bought equipment."
He Mingrun asked again, "How old are you this year?"
He Mingxin: "Twenty-five, but brother, why are you asking this?"
He Mingrun thought for a moment and said, "You've been out of college for over a year, and you're just staying home streaming and earning some side money. Do you think you're comfortable living like this?"
He Mingxin smiled, "Brother, it's very comfortable. I really like this kind of life, sitting at home every day and having money fall from the sky. Would anyone feel uncomfortable living like this?"
He Mingrun nodded, "It is indeed quite comfortable. Since you are an adult and have been acting like a giant baby for several years, starting from this month, I will no longer give you living expenses."
"Since you love streaming so much, then work hard to become better. When you can earn more money yourself, then you can generously give rewards to others. Anything you want to give, whether it's goods or money, you must first possess it before you can generously give it to others."
He Mingrun left without looking back.
He Mingxin was dumbfounded.
But he immediately understood the implication: his elder brother would no longer give him pocket money from now on.
How could this be?
He had to buy CDs, clothes, and limited edition shoes every month.
He also needed skincare products, bags, and underwear.
He also needed to change his hairstyle, and he needed to exercise. All these things added up to hundreds of thousands. If his elder brother didn't give him money, how would he spend?
"No, brother, you can't do this to me." He Mingxin felt that his luck had been really bad lately.
How did his era of being a giant baby end just like that?
On the other side, Jiang Shaoqing smoothly climbed to first place. Facing He Mingxin's challenge, he defeated He Mingxin again.
He logged off before midnight.
Mu Jiuchen had also been paying attention to Little Koi. Seeing Little Koi log off, he picked up his phone and sent a message asking: [Why are you not playing anymore?]
Jiang Shaoqing looked at the message he sent, and his picturesque eyebrows furrowed.
He actually always knew the other party was Mu Jiuchen.
That's why he proposed finding a part-time job at their company. As long as he was interested, the matter would be settled. But he never expected him to be his father.
Jiang Shaoqing: [Because of you!]
Mu Jiuchen: [???]
Little Koi: [I am Jiang Shaoqing.]
Mu Jiuchen, sitting alone by the window, dropped his phone instantly after seeing the message.
He glanced out the window at the myriad of lights, so beautiful, and yet he was all alone. This feeling was truly unbearable.
He regained his composure and then slightly lowered his head to pick up the phone from the floor.
Little Koi is Shaoqing?!
Little Koi is Shaoqing?!
Mu Jiuchen accepted this fact after silently repeating it several times.
So, what kind of genius son did his Nuan Nuan give birth to for him?
Looking at his son's message saying he was unhappy because of him, his eyes flickered. So far, only the four of them knew about Little Koi's existence.
The doctor wouldn't dare to say anything, and Mingrun wouldn't easily reveal it.
His gaze deepened. After looking at the message for a while, he replied.
[Shaoqing, don't you like Daddy?] Seeing the word "Daddy," he himself was stunned. He was surprised by how quickly he had entered the role of a father.
Jiang Shaoqing looked at this message and didn't know how to reply. It was so hard to keep a secret alone!
He thought for a moment and replied: [It's not that I don't like you, but I don't know how to face you. Please, please do not hurt my mother. I can see that your career is going smoothly, and you lack nothing.]
Mu Jiuchen looked deeply at the message sent by his son, smiled, and asked, "Where do you go to school?" He was lacking a wife and son.
Jiang Shaoqing: [JM Special Academy.]
Mu Jiuchen's heart was hit again. The academy he couldn't get into back then, his son had fulfilled his wish for him. That's great!
Mu Jiuchen: [Our Shaoqing is amazing!]
Jiang Shaoqing's heart skipped a beat as he read this praise. Every child feels happy when praised by their parents.
He felt the same way and was so happy at that moment that he wished he could kiss his dad on the cheek.
But his dad was so far away from him.
Jiang Shaoqing: [Thank you! I'm going to sleep.]
After saying that, he logged off.
Mu Jiuchen held his phone in his hand, and within minutes, he received a call from He Mingrun.
"What's wrong?" Mu Jiuchen asked lazily, his gaze fixed on the night outside the window.
He Mingrun asked a little wronged, "I... I just wanted to ask how you are doing?"
Mu Jiuchen stood up and paced around the room, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
"I'm very well!"
He Mingrun: "But I'm not well!"
