"Will you kill me to cover up your secret?" Chu Zihan said coldly. This is the case in many stories. Once someone's shocking secret is leaked, the best way is to silence them.

"Who do you think I am?" Chu Tianjiao laughed dumbly, "Would I hurt my own daughter?"

"Then tell me what you are hiding, otherwise I won't let you go." Chu Zihan was still so aggressive.

“Actually, there’s not much to say…” Chu Tianjiao scratched his head, thinking about how to start. “To put it simply, your and my bloodlines are a little different from others. Although we are both human in appearance and in reality, we have some dragon blood in us. People like us are called mixed-bloods.”

"Go on." What Chu Tianjiao said could already be classified as science fiction, but Chu Zihan had already prepared for today, and any word that came out of his mouth would not surprise her.

"There are many mixed-bloods in the world. Mixed-bloods have powers similar to superpowers, which are called word spirits. They are spread all over the world. Some live like ordinary people, while others live together. Kassel College is such a place. It is a university in Chicago, USA. All the teachers and students there are mixed-bloods. They do not take ordinary university courses. All courses are related to dragons, and the ultimate goal is to slay dragons. I come from there."

"So you should be a superhero." Chu Zihan's tone was still indifferent, and it was hard to tell whether she was praising or mocking.

"Not really. After all, I haven't killed any awesome dragons myself." Chu Tianjiao shrugged. "I was in China for an important mission. According to the original plan, I shouldn't have had any contact with your mother. But the world is full of coincidences. One time, a friend gave me a theater ticket, and I went to see the show. There was a beautiful dancer named Su Xiaoyan. I fell in love with her at first sight and quickly forgot what I was supposed to do. By the time I came to my senses from the passion for love, you were already born."

"So that's why you chose to divorce your mother later? Because you are a mixed-race, you and she are not from the same world, and you are carrying an important secret mission." Chu Zihan snorted coldly.

"It's pretty much what you think." Chu Tianjiao said, showing no sign of mending his ways.

"Do you know what people call this kind of behavior?" Chu Zihan laughed in anger.

"What's the meaning?"

"He abandoned her after having fun. Isn't that a scumbag? A man who was entrusted with an important mission, but couldn't control his lower body while carrying out the mission. He fell in love with the wrong person at the wrong time, gave birth to the wrong child, divorced the wrong woman, and hurt two women in one go. This is not a dragon-slaying hero, but a despicable bear."

She was also very harsh when she cursed. Her parents' divorce hurt her deeply. She still remembered that her mother was always in tears during the initial separation. She said bad things about Chu Tianjiao to her most every day. But she would occasionally mention the man's humor and wit, which showed that she still loved him.

This kind of relationship between adults is very complicated, but fortunately Chu Zihan didn't completely listen to her mother's words. She was very precocious and knew how to find different perspectives and answers. So even though her mother didn't allow it, she often took Chu Tianjiao's car privately and interacted with Chu Tianjiao, trying to find out what happened between the two.

Now the answer is finally revealed. It turns out that this love was a mistake from the beginning, but the reality is not Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. Love cannot decide everything. Everyone can always get together, but they may not necessarily separate.

The thoughtful daughter Xiaoao did not choose her father at this moment, but stood firmly on her mother's side. Chu Zihan felt that this matter was Chu Tianjiao's own fault, and both her mother and she were victims of this wrong love.

"A bear is just a bear..." Chu Tianjiao said timidly, "Anyway, I think bears are much better than heroes. At least they are big. Remember when we went to the zoo? The bears there looked silly, but they could even perform on unicycles. They were humorous and powerful. It made me feel safe! If I were a bear, I would protect you every day."

Chu Zihan was so angry that he almost laughed. How could there be such a shameless man in the world? You were clearly scolding him, but he could still brag about his goodness to you with a playful face.

She had nothing to say, and more importantly, she didn't want to say anything. Chu Tianjiao's thick skin successfully defeated her. This is the highest realm of shamelessness. All the morality and character are shit. If a person has no shame, he is the most despicable. If he is the most despicable, he is invincible. You can never use your moral concepts to defeat a person who has no such things. This is just like a normal person can't be scolded by a psychopath in a quarrel.

Chu Tianjiao turned on the car stereo on his own initiative, and the music that played was "Daily Growing" by the Irish band Altan.

the trees they grow high, the leaves tehy do grow green,

many is the time my true love i've seen,

many an hour i have watched him all alone,

he's young but he's daily growing.

father, dear father, you've done me great wrong,

you have married me to a boy who is too young,

i am twice twelve and he is but fourteen,

he's young but he's daily growing.

Chu Zihan listened to the song quietly. She could understand all the lyrics. It said that a father married his 24-year-old daughter to a 14-year-old rich boy. The daughter was unwilling because she was worried that she would be too old when her husband grew up. But the father said that his arrangement was correct. He married his daughter to a rich young man so that when he got old, his daughter would have someone to rely on.

Unfortunately, the rich boy died before he grew up. His daughter was very sad and weaved a shroud for him with flannel on the green grave. Her life had ups and downs because of this decision, and in the end she did not get the ending her father expected.

This song is so annoying, it makes everyone sad.

Chu Zihan thought about the story in the song, her eyes suddenly widened slightly, she turned her head to look at the man in the front driver's seat, Chu Tianjiao shook his head as if immersed in the melody of the song. Chu Tianjiao has always been a rough guy, he definitely can't understand English songs, if it was before Chu Zihan would definitely think so, but Chu Tianjiao said he was from Cassel, Chicago, USA, how could someone who doesn't know English go to study in such a place?

Of course he understood "Daily Growing". He put the album of this song in his car on purpose because he wanted to give it to his daughter. He and the old father in the song are the same people, doing the same thing.

"Is this interesting?" After trying to understand the hidden meaning of the song, Chu Zihan immediately became angry.

“What?” Chu Tianjiao still pretended to be stupid, as if he knew nothing.

"Do you think I don't understand your hidden meaning? Do you think you are quite manly? You can't give mom the life she wants, so you divorced her and sent both me and her to another rich man, so that we can have someone to rely on. How generous, manly, and heroic you are, sacrificing yourself for the happiness of the whole world!" Chu Zihan finally couldn't stand it anymore and roared, "Chu Tianjiao, you are a bastard, you know that? Whether it is marrying mom or the arrangements after the divorce, it is just your wishful thinking. You have never considered what others think!"

This was the first time in her life that Chu Zihan spoke to Chu Tianjiao like this. She was rarely so angry, and veins were surging on her forehead. She had been a good girl with excellent character and academic performance since childhood, and actually had a lot of things in her mind, but none of them were about herself.

After her parents divorced, she once wanted to get them back together, even if that would mean losing her current life. She didn't care how big the house was, how many beautiful clothes she had, what kind of luxury car she drove. She just missed that ordinary yet warm home, the beautiful woman standing by the stove, busying herself with the burnt scrambled tomatoes, the man holding her and playing the carrot-pulling game, dragging her so high that the unshaved stubble pricked her forehead and made it hurt.

The one who is hurt the most by a couple breaking up is never each other, but the innocent child. Too many bad things in society are caused by such children. The best thing they learn from their parents is how to inflict pain on others.

"Fuck yourself, hero of Cassel!"

Chu Zihan threw her cell phone towards the front seat. The phone hit the dashboard and bounced back to the passenger seat. She pushed open the door and ran away. Tears of anger or sadness shed on the edge of her expensive school uniform skirt.

Chu Tianjiao didn't dare to get out of the car to chase him, but just picked up the phone silently. It was a very cheap model, which was totally inconsistent with Chu Zihan's current status. In fact, her new father certainly gave her the latest Nokia, but she never used it. She kept it in the box all the time. She always carried the phone Chu Tianjiao gave her, which was a gift when she entered Shilan Middle School.

This was one of the few valuable things he gave her, and now she was returning it to him, which meant that they had broken off all ties and never wanted to see each other again.

father, dear father, you've done me great wrong.

The stereo in the car was still playing that song. The phone that Chu Zihan threw over seemed to have jammed it, and it kept repeating that sentence. Chu Tianjiao took out the hidden cigarette box again, the flame of the lighter curled up, and the smell of cheap tobacco that he took a deep breath into his lungs was actually not a comfortable smell at all.

But at this time, it seems that only this cigarette can dispel the sorrow in my heart.

He looked up at the distant sky. The rolling black clouds were like waves and the heavy rain was overwhelming. In a few seconds, it covered the sad city, as if God was crying sadly.

Lu Mingfei tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. Lu Mingze's snoring on the bed opposite him was like thunder, and the whole room shook with every breath.

He doesn't snore every day. Lu Mingze's snoring is like Schrödinger's cat. You don't know when he will suddenly snore. So for Lu Mingfei, getting a good night's sleep is an uncertain luxury. It mainly depends on how loud Lu Mingze's snoring is that day.

Obviously, today was not a good day, and he had no choice but to lie on the bed with his eyes wide open, his mind full of beautiful memories of tonight.

Chu Zihan! The school goddess of Shilan Middle School! We were sitting so close to each other, and she even personally held my hand and applied medicine to me!

Adolescent boys are full of beautiful imaginations about the opposite sex. Even seeing the faucet in the sink will make them imagine things. What happened tonight is like a romantic idol drama. The encounter between the good-for-nothing scholar and the famous female lead is so beautiful that it makes people feel bubbling. It seems that he can smell Chu Zihan's fragrance instead of Lu Mingze's sweaty odor as soon as he breathes in. When he reaches out his hand, he sees Chu Zihan's serious face instead of his big shorts placed on the bedside.

With the double attack of snoring and delusions in his head, Lu Mingfei was definitely not going to sleep tonight. He simply turned over, crawled under his bed, and took out the shoe box at the innermost part.

There were a lot of banknotes and cash in it, which was Lu Mingfei's secret piggy bank. He actually picked up all the money he won tonight afterwards. Those bastards were so scared after being beaten that they didn't dare to stay any longer, so after saying goodbye to Chu Zihan, Lu Mingfei turned around and took a shortcut back to the alley, and found almost all the money in the dark.

How can you survive in the world without money? A penny can make a hero fall, let alone 390 yuan?

Lu Mingfei put all the money in it, and then took out dozens of old bills and put them in his pocket. During this time, he did not forget to turn his head to check on Lu Mingze's situation. Fortunately, this guy was basically like an old sow when he fell asleep, and it was impossible for him to wake up until noon.

He put on sneakers and gently pushed open the window. There was an old water pipe on the edge of the window. He climbed up and slid down to the bottom as if he knew the route well. He successfully escaped and ran straight to the Internet cafe, holding onto his little piggy bank.

I'm planning to book a night. Although I have classes tomorrow, they are all unimportant classes. I will definitely not be able to sleep tonight with Lu Mingze, the bass speaker, around. Instead of staring all night and dozing off in class the next day, I might as well use this precious time on Starcraft. The result is the same anyway, I will have to doze off in class, so why not choose something that will make me happier?

However, he regretted it within a few minutes of running out. The nearest Internet cafe was a bit far away, and the weather was not good today. A few seconds ago, the dark clouds seemed to be thousands of miles away, and a few seconds later, heavy rain came and drenched him head and face.

Lu Mingfei ran wildly, jumping and skipping. The nearest place was a bus stop where he could take shelter from the rain. Standing there, he was surrounded by freezing cold. The rain seemed to be against him and was blowing in from the side. He hugged his arms and shivered. It was too far to go to the Internet cafe and too far to go home. He was in a dilemma.
