Luo Shuqing's expression of indescribable emotions caused the atmosphere in the car to become increasingly strange. Luo Nan didn't dare to disturb her, but his keen senses discovered that the moisture on his Aunt's cheeks had increased a bit.
Was she crying?
The car drove on the low-altitude traffic zone. The morning traffic surged and shuttled back and forth. No one paid attention to the feeling of being in this ordinary family car.
Luo Nan instinctively wanted to seek help from the staff officer team, but he saw his Aunt's figure lying on the steering wheel. Her emotions were so desolate and low. Was this something that an outsider's staff officer could solve?
He instinctively felt that something was wrong. His friends noticed the situation in the car at this time and the clamor died down. But strangely, no one gave him any ideas.
The silence on both sides made Luo Nan suddenly realize something. Yes. How could an outsider deal with a family's emotional problems?
He subconsciously cut off the shared view and closed the group chat. But this didn't help his ability to solve problems. His mind was still a field of blankness.
His Aunt suddenly called out his name at this time. Her pronunciation carried a bit of a nasal sound. "Your birthday is coming soon, right?"
"Ah, me? It's June … … "
"I'm talking about your father."
Luo Nan was suddenly stupefied on the spot. His Aunt knew of his serious dissatisfaction with that person these past few years. She rarely took the initiative to mention it, so Luo Nan had already lost the relevant reaction.
Should he be angry? Should he be furious? There was an instant when Luo Nan's heart was blocked by some sort of negative emotions. But the amount that truly surged to his head was much smaller than he imagined.
Luo Nan had a general idea of what was going on. He discovered that the deeper he cultivated, the more frequently he could see traces of that fellow.
Even if he missed and admired his mother's achievements, it was impossible to overlook the faintly discernible shadow under the brilliant radiance.
Plus, there was still the external neuron.
Luo Nan suddenly discovered that a considerable portion of the negative emotions that soared in his mind were directed at him.
He felt like a child. His heart was clearly filled with resentment. He felt that all of his righteousness and grievances were occupied by an adult. But when an adult sent him a candy, he couldn't help but chew and eat it. There was even a hint of delight in his heart!
Where's your backbone? Where's your righteousness? You were so angry for so long. Was it just a hypocritical gesture for a candy?
"Da!" Luo Nan used his fist to heavily pound his thigh, but he forgot that the strength of his hand was no longer the same as before. The sound of his fist wasn't loud, but he felt as if his bones had gone limp from the shock.
Looking at him like this, Luo Shuqing actually laughed. Her voice was still nasal, but there was a kind of pleasure of revenge. She finally turned her head. The rims of her eyes were slightly red, but her smile was pure and distant … … It was probably because of her gaze. She was clearly looking at Luo Nan, but it was as if she was looking at an old friend who had traveled far beyond the heavens.
She didn't care what Luo Nan's mood was like. She minded her own business and continued to speak: "It was probably this type of weather. Yes, it was snowing that day. The three of you have already returned to the city and are living in Blue Bay Community. At that time, he was already in trouble. "
Luo Nan really wanted to loudly say, "Don't talk about that fellow's trivial matters." But there was an incorporeal power that sealed his mouth. He was actually able to analyze the components within: There was the guilt he felt towards his Aunt, and there was also some sort of impulse from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, he only opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Only the occasional sound of a car horn could be heard within the soundproof interior of the car. Aside from this, there was only Luo Shuqing's flowing voice:
"He came to my house that day to discuss your grandfather's case. Then I sent him back. Heh. At that time, it really was a gloomy and miserable fog. We didn't talk. I just laid on the steering wheel. I don't even know what I was thinking. "
"He was just like you. He sat in the front passenger seat. He was lost in thought until someone called him. It was a young man. Of course, he was much older than the child just now. His surname seemed to be Luo as well. I just remember that he had a sobbing tone as he shouted: "Success! Success! Luo Zhongheng, you deserter. You trash. You trash … … You really are a fucking genius! "
It was rare for Luo Shuqing to be able to imitate the details of that person's words to perfection. This included the curse words and the choking of his sobs.
Luo Nan looked over stupidly. He looked at his Aunt's eyes that were filled with a misty red glow. He looked at the corner of her lips that were slightly trembling, but she still revealed a smile: "Your dad just smiled like that. I've completely forgotten what he said. But he just smiled. This is the first time I've seen him smile since he returned to the city. This is the first time … … "
Tears finally overflowed. They overflowed her nose and dripped onto the steering wheel. Luo Shuqing didn't wipe them. She continued to lay on the steering wheel. She gazed at Luo Nan with the side of her face. She just extended her hand and lightly touched the back of her nephew's hand on his knee: "What that person said was correct. What that child said just now was correct as well. You two, father and son, are both geniuses. One idea, one suggestion, one direction, and you can benefit others. You are undoubtedly geniuses!"
She didn't know how long it had been, but the smile never left the corner of her lips. She just expressed her emotions like this, without any concealment:
"I'm very happy. I'm very happy!"
Luo Shuqing didn't mention anything related to the Society, ability users, or any other related matters during the entire journey. She only asked about Worker Zhai. She asked about Di Weiwu. She asked about Rui Wen. She only wanted to know about the geniuses related to Luo Nan. As for the others … …
She knew that it was meaningless.
The car passed through four city districts and arrived at Acumen College. Luo Nan got off the car and sent off his aunt. He still stood motionless in his original spot. He just felt a bit absent-minded, a bit misty, and a bit complicated. However, a certain place in the depths of his heart gradually stabilized.
It wasn't until the flow of people in the school gradually thickened and the gazes of many people gathered on his body did Luo Nan realize that he had been in a daze for far too long. Qin Yikun and the others should have brought Rui Wen over by now.
Luo Nan opened up his friend group once more, but he saw that this group of people had a tacit understanding. They no longer mentioned anything related to his family. Right now, the topic of their discussion revolved around Worker Zhai. They revolved around his breakthrough, the specific process and method of his successful awakening.
Papercut was truly happy for Worker Zhai. He was crazily promoting the marvels of the Condensation Ring. Of course, this included Luo Nan's miraculous train of thought and pointers. Looking at Papercut's posture, it was as if he hated that he couldn't just say, "Luo Nan shall rise as the descendant of a Martial Emperor."
Luo Nan blushed a bit when he saw this, and the emotions in his heart faded a bit. He simply sent a blushing and embarrassed emoji.
Papercut didn't care about Luo Nan's current mood. He just stuffed a large red packet over. "Introducing you to Old Zhai was the wisest decision I've made in all these years! I'll have him treat you later. Everyone, sit down and keep him company! "
Luo Nan subconsciously opened the red packet. He was shocked to see that there were actually five honor points inside. This wasn't something that could be converted with money. He was immediately shocked.
"This isn't appropriate!"
"It's fine. I'm happy. Plus, exchanging five points for an awakening is too freaking profitable! "
Bamboo Pole sent two thumbs in praise. "Brother Papercut is heroic! Boss Luo is a genius!" One by one, the people below followed suit and lined up. Even Rui Wen was at the tail end of the line with a + 8. It was unknown if she did it herself or if Cat Eyes helped her.
Luo Nan simply asked from below, "Where are you now?"
"Parking lot, exit A4."
Xue Lei, who had been accompanying Gym Master Mao Dong for the past two days, and who was also in charge of protection, exploded out at this time. Xue Lei had a stupefied expression. "What's going on?"
While Xue Lei laboriously flipped through the historical information under everyone's reminder, Zhang Yingying said to Luo Nan, "Look over here. Look over here. Your chance to win a new nickname is here."
Luo Nan replied with a head-scratching question mark.
It was rare for Zhang Yingying to formally send a long paragraph of text. "The boss is very interested in your and Worker Zhai's train of thought and method. He feels that this is a new direction in the application of the Dripping Sword. It will be helpful to those who have not awakened or have just awakened. It just so happens that the elementary training class is about to start. Luo Nan, hurry up and write the lesson plan. I'll let you go this year. "
"....." Luo Nan only replied with an ellipsis.
The others grew more and more excited. "Congratulations! You can call him Teacher Luo in the future."
"Professor Luo is still more pretentious!"
"The boss hasn't gone on stage yet. Do you want to practice in a small area first? We'll give you some face. "
Luo Nan sent a sweating emoji. "No way. How many days has it been since I finished my basic training? Plus, it's just an idea. Worker Zhai is the one who came. Shouldn't Worker Zhai be the one to go? "
"None of them can escape. Worker Zhai wants to participate in the exchange of experience. Hurry up and notify him, Papercut. No, just pull him into the group. It should be fine to use the HexaEar."
"Of course it's fine. I'll go pull him in."
Papercut went to invite Worker Zhai into the group. Luo Nan's thoughts grew firmer. "Having Worker Zhai is enough. Why would I join in the fun? You guys know that right now, I'm in a terrible mess. I can't split myself up …. Yingying, can you help me explain this to Her Majesty Empress Wu? "
"Oh, that's true."
Zhang Yingying looked at the members list of the group. Crow had only spoken a few times. Zhang Yingying felt that it was a bit too much. Just thinking about the troubles that Luo Nan was currently encountering was enough to make them feel like their scalps were going to explode.
"Then I'll tell the boss?"
"Tell him! Tell him! Thank you so much!"
Luo Nan managed to get out with great difficulty, and he saw Rui Wen and the others at the exit of the underground parking lot.
"Let's go to Gear first. Rui Wen can stay there when I go to class in the future. Cat Eyes can accompany her …. Well, if my family goes to the orphanage to check up on me, you know what to do."
Rui Wen nodded slightly.
Luo Nan had Rui Wen go to Gear for other reasons than for better arrangements. Before he could instruct Cat Eyes face to face, the HexaEar rang with a sharp and ear-piercing alarm. An artificial voice also sounded at the same time:
"Number 5357, according to the adjusted calculations of the branch finance committee, the system has already deducted all of your resource expenses from last week. You have a total of 137 honor points. Your current honor points are -124 points. Due to the negative value of your honor points, the system has automatically adjusted to credit mode and is preparing to shut down relevant privileges.
"If you have a different opinion, please file a written complaint with the finance committee as soon as possible. The countdown for shutting down relevant privileges has begun."
It was at this moment that the countdown on the virtual vision of the HexaEar began.
