Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 311 Successfully Winning Back His Wife

After Du Anrao sent out his message, the person on the other end of the phone didn't reply for a long time.

Just when Du Anrao thought the question was too tricky and even her master couldn't answer it, her phone screen lit up again.

A heart as still as water: You.

Du Anrao: "!!!"

"Forgive others when you can": Really?! I'm not well-educated, Master, don't lie to me.

Heart as Still as Water: ...Is it something to be proud of that you don't read much? Our family library is short of books for you to read, isn't it? Besides, I'd only lie to you if I had nothing better to do! Those so-called chosen ones are just people with connections.

"Forgive and forget": (This refers to someone with connections or favoritism.)
"Heart as Still as Water": To put it bluntly, these are just ordinary people who are lucky. They may have received a little favor from Heaven due to various factors that are related to Heaven, which opened a small back door for them.

A calm mind: If they can seize the opportunity to do good deeds and accumulate merit, they will continue to have good luck. But if they do not cherish it and squander it without any regard for its value, or even use this favor to do some immoral things, then even if you do nothing, their good luck will eventually be squandered.

This was the first time Du Anrao had heard such a statement, and he was greatly shocked. It took him a while to remember to reply.

"Forgive others when you can": How do you know I was referring to the latter, and not comparing them to the former?

Calm as Still Water: [Look at my disgusted look.jpg] I've raised this child for over ten years, how could I not know him? What kind of good person could someone be that you can't stand?
It was a particularly provocative remark, yet it made Du Anrao laugh, and his heart calmed down as a result.

Seeing her like this, Du's mother felt quite uncomfortable.

But when I thought about how someone had helped raise my child for over ten years and taught him so well, the little knot in my heart was instantly smoothed out.

Ultimately, it's because they, as parents, have failed in their duty and are unable to provide their children with enough security.

Once she understood this, Du's mother quickly composed herself and asked, "When you accompanied your third brother to his workplace this morning, were you harassed by anyone?"

Du Anrao's attention was indeed diverted, and he put away his phone, saying, "It's not difficult at all; Third Brother's senior classmates are all very nice. It's just..."

"Just what?" Everyone in the car turned to look.

Du Anrao's eyelids twitched: "It's just that there are a few people who don't get along with Third Brother's aura, and it's easy for them to cause trouble when they work together. Originally, we planned to go to the research institute again in the afternoon after lunch to check on the situation and also to meet Third Brother's mentor. Unexpectedly, an accident happened as soon as we left the house."

After hearing Du Anrao's explanation, Du's mother turned to look at Du Yihan questioningly.

Du Yihan nodded and said helplessly, "That's definitely true."

"After that, would you like to visit your third brother again?"

"No need. Thinking about it carefully, we've already seen enough that day. B University hasn't officially started classes yet, and many students haven't returned to campus. Going again won't make much difference."

[I've already reported the matter of Third Brother to Uncle Xu. Given their efficiency, the people protecting Third Brother will be on duty in a couple of days—no, at the latest tomorrow. Then, whatever the protagonist, villain, or monster comes, we'll kill them one by one, two by two. Nobody will be able to get close to my Third Brother.]

Du Yihan: "..." This was the first time in her life she'd experienced being treated like a fragile object; it was quite a novel feeling. "However, the reason I was allowed to visit the research institute was because of my third brother's mentor. It's a rare opportunity to go, yet I didn't even get to meet him. Isn't that a bit too impolite?"

“What you said makes sense. Yihan, why don’t you ask your advisor when they’re free so we can pay them a visit in person?”

"Okay, I'll ask. But my teacher doesn't really like crowds, so I'll just go with An'an."

Du Yihan was still thinking about what Du Anrao had mentioned about Old Master Lü. Even if Du Anrao hadn't said anything, he would have found a way to bring the person to her. That way, it would have saved her some trouble.

But he doesn't need to bother with the others. Don't think he doesn't know that these people seem enthusiastic, but in reality they all want to gossip about him and make a fool of himself. He won't fall for it.

"In that case, I'll go with my third brother. But I'll have to trouble Dad and Mom to prepare some suitable gifts for me."

Since Du Anrao had already said so, the others couldn't insist: "Okay, your dad and I will prepare these things, don't worry."

"Mm." Du Anrao nodded, hugged his mother's arm, and smiled. "After we visit Third Brother's mentor, the holiday will be basically over. I don't have anything else to do, so we can go home."

Even Du Anrao hadn't anticipated that she would encounter so many things in City B and stay for so long. To be honest, she was actually a little homesick.

"Alright, alright, let's go home. Although B City is the capital, it's bustling, glamorous, and full of opportunities, but it's also full of risks. I still prefer our small city. As long as you're all well and safe, your dad and I won't have to worry about you."

"Since we're going back, why don't you come with me to J City sometime?"

As soon as Du Yuxi said this, not only Du Anrao, but everyone else looked over as well.

"J City? Did something happen to your uncle and aunt?"

“Nothing happened to them. My older cousin took his wife and my nephew home. As you know, we owe this to An’an. If it weren’t for her, my confused cousin would have been unaware of their existence for who knows how long, let alone brought them back.”

Wow, Brother Li succeeded in winning over his wife!

"Oh, not really." Du Anrao waved his hand somewhat embarrassedly, "It was just a coincidence that we ran into each other."

"Don't be modest. Even if someone else encountered this a hundred times, they wouldn't think to associate them with my cousin. Ultimately, it's all thanks to you."

Du Yuxi sat on the other side of Du Anrao, holding her hand tightly with lingering fear, and said, "Moreover, after my cousin brought her home, he found out that Li Qianxi had also been in contact with them not long ago. If he hadn't acted quickly, the other party would probably have already set their sights on them, which would have been too dangerous."

Upon hearing this, Du Anrao shuddered, and even the ahoge (cowlick) on his head trembled.

[It was indeed very dangerous. According to the original novel, Li Qianxi met Li Yiheng and his mother by chance at an audition for a children's variety show later in the story. Because she had seen a photo of Bai Yueguang in Li Zhaoyang's wallet before, she recognized him almost immediately and began to suspect Li Yiheng's identity.]

In order to force Li Zhaoyang to hand over all operational control of the company, Li Qianxi, along with her cronies, kidnapped the child. After confirming that Li Zhaoyang had complied and the child was no longer of any use, they abandoned the child in the wilderness to fend for themselves, leaving the child to freeze outside all night in the dead of winter!

The Du family members: "?!!"
