“How about the longevity noodles of north canteen?” There was a faint music from Di Qiuhe, much like the evening lullaby played every night by Q University, mingled with the laughter of students. “Pup, the weather is getting cold in city B, and I had no preparation at all. Come and rescue me.”

He Bai sat up in disbelief and raised his voice unconsciously, “Are you back? At Q University?”

Di Qiuhe chuckled but made no response.

“You asshole!” He Bai scolded. He hung up the phone, got out of bed in a coat casually, and then took another one from the cupboard before running out of dormitory, leaving his astounded roommates behind.

Wang Hu wondered, “Who’s that? Why he’s so excited?”

Niu Junjie, who had the experience of love affairs recently, touched his chin and made a guess, “Is the girl he cares for?”

Chen Jie thrust his glasses. “Maybe it’s a man he likes.”

Wang Hu and Niu Junjie looked at him in shocked expression.

Chen Jie then made a shruggie. “Don’t be so serious.”

The other two felt relieved, pretending to beat him.

In late autumn, city B was somewhat cold. When He Bai found Di Qiuhe on the cement stand beside the playground amidst the cold night wind, Di’s face was already flushed by the wind.

“Why are you back all of a sudden? Are you finished with your filming work? “He Bai stood in front of Di, threw the clothes on him and asked with a frown.

Di Qiuhe wrapped up the clothes, sat on the steps with his long legs bent, looked up at He Bai, smiled and said, “My father is getting divorced.”

“What?” He Bai was astounded, with brows knitting harder, he then asked in a shrill voice, “What’s going on? Are you sure?” Huangdu and the Qin family is an interest group at present, and both of them would be undermined if Di Bian divorced Qin Li. Is he out of his mind?

“Sure, he said it on the phone.” Di Qiuhe raised his hand to stroke his hairs, while his smile was tinged with sarcasm. “Last time I told him about Zeng Peizhong, he remained unconvinced but sent someone to check up on Zeng Peizhong at once and did a paternity test secretly after hanging up.”

He Bai had a flash of inspiration in his mind and guessed, “Is Di Xiasong really…”

“Not him. He’s quite a copy of my father.” Di Qiuhe said, but his tone growing queer, “The dubious one is Di Chunhua. She is neither the offspring of Di family, nor Zeng Peizhong.”

He Bai glared at Di for there was too much information for him to take in.

“Guess what.” Di Qiuhe tidied his clothes again, leaned forward to hold He Bai’s hand, which were cold. He then frowned and drew He’s other hand, took off the scarf covering his face around He’s neck with a hilarious bow, and lowered his head and said slowly, “You’ll be awarded if you guess this one right and there’s a hint. Di Chunhua has been in poor health since childhood. She’s irritable and is of typical features of Qin family.”

‘Poor health, irritability, took after Qin Li, that is, the Qin family…’ He Bai gasped, and an awful conjecture came to him. He stammered, “Your stepmother ,she committed in, incest …”

“You’re right, you deserve a hug.” Di Qiuhe got up and hugged him, with his head brushed against He’s hair, then he lowered his voice, “My dad has caught such a big soft spot of Qin family, which meant he could do whatever he wanted to. He wants not only a divorce, but also the Qin family shall suffer a great loss. You see, he always regards his love as a bargain price. Di Chunhua is the most one he loved among his three children, and now the secret is discovered by coincidence. He was not grieved or shocked but overjoyed at first, because he gets the most favorable demerit to restrain the Qin family, of which he no longer needs to scruple against.”

He Bai recognized there was something wrong, he held still while neglecting Di was hugging him, and hesitated, “Qiuhe …”

“It’s so ridiculous that I’ve been seeking by all means to defeat Qin Li and Qin family, but I never expect they could be disintegrated and torn by dissension so easily.” Di Qiuhe was not satisfied at all, whereas there was a sense of emptiness after reaching his goal abruptly. He raised his hand to touch He Bai’s back and continued, “If you hadn’t overheard the conversation, it would never have been known…you are my lucky charm, Pup.”

He Bai was at a loss for words, he was somewhat muddled by such a big keyhole report. And how on earth did Di Bian find out that? After all, in the last life, Di Chunhua was a little darling of Di family until Di Qiuhe died after falling from a window. She even put on an act as a sad and good sister in front of reporters after Di’s death, but in this life…Wait! In the last life Di Qiuhe fell from the building, the arm retracted from the curtain was obviously a woman’s…Could that be Di Chunhua? She silenced him because he discovered her birth secret!

His jumbled brain suddenly became as clear as daylight, yet the crisis awareness soared in his mind.

If that was true, would Di Qiuhe, who fell to the floor and died after discovering the truth in his last life, follow the track this life, and after discovering the truth…

“Qiuhe!” He was shocked, struggled to free himself from the scarf, hold Di’s shoulder and pushed him away, scowled at him, “How many people know Di Chunhua’s birth until now? How did your father find out that? And your father, has he just had the idea or is he already negotiating with the Qin family? ”

“Calm down, it’s …”

The cell phone rung suddenly.

Di Qiuhe took out the phone and looked at it as their conversation was interrupted. He frowned when he saw it was Wang Boyi. He raised his hand to placate and pat He Bai on the shoulder, signaling him to wait. Then he turned on the phone sideways and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Master Di!” Assistant Wang’s voice was so loud that He Bai could hear faintly for standing close by. “The butler of Residence Di just called your work number, said the chairman accidentally fell down from the stairs half an hour ago. He suffered from cerebral hemorrhage and was in a coma. He’s now being rescued in hospital, of which the doctor said that his life might be in danger!”

“Half an hour ago?” Di Qiuhe’s face was distorted by anxiety instantly and strode toward the school gate while whipping round every two steps.

“I’ll go with you!” He Bai got flustered like never before. He picked up the coat and scarf that fell to the ground, and followed him up without thinking. A sense of foreboding haunted him, thus he whispered, “From now on, you are not allowed to leave me, not even a step!”
