When he walked out of the Zhang family, Yue Heng felt relaxed.
There was no doubt that the material conditions in this mansion were excellent.
Even for a burden like Yue Heng, the room assigned to him was not bad.
The Zhang family was proud of their status and disdained to abuse their stepson and tarnish their family's reputation.
However, for the former Yue Heng, the Zhang family's mansion was like purgatory on earth.
Living in it, his mind was tortured all the time.
Even the dogs in the mansion lived a much happier life than he did!
Yue Heng still remembered clearly.
On this day in his first life, he took a shortcut after school to catch the bus.
He was also intercepted.
In the end, not only was he extorted of all his change, but he was also beaten black and blue.
He was as pathetic as he could be.
When he finally returned to the Zhang family, Yue Heng did not receive the slightest bit of sympathy. Instead, he was angrily reprimanded by Yue Junmin.
He thought that he did not learn to fight with others.
At that time, Yue Heng could not forget the mocking and disdainful looks of the Zhang family for a long time.
His heart had been hurt to the point of being torn to shreds.
Yue Heng had already thought about it.
Even if Yue Junmin did not agree, he would still leave.
In the end, he did not know what Yue Junmin said to Zhang Lirong. Soon, he came back and asked Yue Heng to go to the room to pack his luggage.
When he came out, he did not even meet the Zhang family.
"Wait here."
Yue Junmin looked very unhappy and said sullenly, "I'll drive over."
While waiting for the car, Yue Heng felt very incredulous.
Back then, if he had one percent of the courage he had now, he would not have fallen to such a state.
Zhang Lirong obviously regarded him as an ant and did not care about whether he stayed or left.
If Yue Heng had dared to mention it back then, the result would have been the same as now.
He would not have suffered three years of torture for nothing!
Unfortunately, at that time, he …
Yue Heng shook his head and stopped thinking about the past.
Yue Junmin's car drove over.
After getting into the car, Yue Heng sat in the back.
The father and son were silent the entire way.
When they were about to reach home, Yue Junmin suddenly said, "Xiaoheng, actually …"
Yue Junmin didn't say what the truth was.
But Yue Heng understood.
In fact, Yue Junmin had brought him from the county to Taijiang and let him stay with him in the Zhang family's mansion.
In essence, he wanted the best for Yue Heng.
To be able to blend into the upper class.
However, Yue Junmin had a handsome face and looked smart on the surface, but he was actually naive.
In the eyes of outsiders, Yue Junmin did not marry the eldest daughter of the Taijiang Zhang family.
Instead, he married into the Zhang family.
An adopted son-in-law.
Yue Junmin might not have understood this, but he was confident that he could control Zhang Lirong and make the latter obey him.
However, the reality was very cruel.
The person who was really controlled was Yue Junmin.
As Yue Junmin's son, Yue Heng's position in the Zhang family was very awkward!
The worst thing was that he had attracted the hostility of Zhang Lirong's children because of this. His life had taken a fork in the road.
Other people cheated their fathers, but Yue Junmin cheated his son.
Yue Heng was already very filial for not punching his father's head!
The car drove into an alley and stopped in front of a three-story building.
The building was very old.
The outer wall and wall on the east side were covered with creepers, and they glowed under the light of the street lamps.
Yue Junmin and Yue Heng got out of the car and took out the key to open the rusty courtyard door.
A small courtyard came into view, and there was a thick osmanthus tree in the corner.
Yue Heng remembered that when he visited his grandfather during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the house was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
That was one of the best memories of his childhood.
This old house had obviously not been taken care of for a long time, and there was a lot of fallen leaves and dust in the courtyard.
Some weeds grew.
Yue Junmin went into the house and tested the water, electricity, and natural gas.
All of them were working.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Yue Heng looked on coldly and said, "Okay, you can go back."
Yue Heng knew very well that Zhang Lirong usually kept Yue Junmin under control.
It was too difficult for Yue Junmin to stay here tonight.
Yue Heng didn't need it either.
Yue Junmin handed the key to Yue Heng embarrassedly. "Then you tidy up yourself, call me if you need anything."
He added, "I'll help you transfer the ownership tomorrow."
"Thank you."
Yue Heng took the key, feeling a little complicated.
His father wasn't a bad person, but he quickly fell into depravity after marrying into the Zhang family.
Now there was still warmth.
"What's there to thank me for?"
Yue Junmin grinned, and then didn't know what to say.
In the end, he waved his hand weakly. "Then I'm leaving, be careful, and let me know if you run out of money."
"Okay."
After seeing his father off, Yue Heng closed the courtyard door.
He turned on all the lights upstairs and downstairs, and then found a broom and dustpan from the storage room in the basement.
He started cleaning.
In the Star Ocean era a thousand years later, basically all the housework was done by intelligent robots.
Yue Heng had lived for decades in his second life, and he hadn't done any cleaning work.
But now, he didn't feel the slightest bit of difficulty or hardship.
Instead, there was an indescribable sense of fulfillment and joy.
He was far away from endless battles, and he didn't have to face the endless Zergs anymore.
And the sinister and unpredictable human heart.
Yue Heng felt that this life was the best place for him to return to.
It was a brand new beginning now.
After more than three hours, until he was drenched in sweat, Yue Heng barely finished the preliminary cleaning work.
This old house wasn't big.
But to clean all three floors, including the basement and the small courtyard in one night …
It was undoubtedly unrealistic.
Yue Heng didn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he stopped when he felt that he could live in it.
He would slowly clean it in the future.
He went to the bathroom, turned on the water heater, and took a good shower.
After washing away the dust and fatigue, Yue Heng changed into clean clothes, and looked at himself in the mirror.
A sixteen-year-old boy, at the beginning of the beautiful beginning of youth.
Yue Heng's appearance had inherited many of his parents' strengths, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a strong nose, and a pair of bright and spirited eyes.
He totally deserved the title of "handsome".
It was just that the Yue Heng of his first life was unworthy of his good looks.
Living under someone else's roof, learning difficult and difficult, and the constant psychological pressure made him usually walk with his head down, depressed and muddle-headed, without any energy.
He felt inferior and dispirited.
His looks were seventy to eighty points, so two to three points were deducted.
The Yue Heng now was completely different.
Even though he had lost his extraordinary strength, he still had an unparalleled will.
No one could suppress his mind anymore!
After staring for a long time, Yue Heng left the bathroom and went to the bedroom on the third floor.
This was the room he used to live in.
The temperature in Taijiang in March was still a little low. Yue Heng took out the bedding from the cabinet and laid it on the bed.
The bedding hadn't been dried for a long time, and it had a strong mothball smell.
Yue Heng didn't care, and fell asleep while smelling the smell.
A dreamless night.
