chapter 12.1

In the early morning of the next day, when both the mother and son pair were having breakfast in the dining room together, Ji Qisen received a report from his subordinate.

He then raised his eyes to look at Gu Yuan.

At this moment, Gu Yuan was still muddled-headedly drinking her milk. This was totally unlike her. Normally when she saw the dining table was full of food, she would be very lively and had a very good appetite. She would also repeatedly praise the food non stop while her mouth was filled with them. This was to the extent that even someone like him who was not really interested in food would also be unable to control himself but to want to taste those foods.

However, today she listlessly drooped her head and stared indifferently while drinking the milk with a straw. Both of her eyes also had the same vacant look.

If you looked at her clearly, you could even see the dark circle that was surrounding her eyes.

Ji Qisen suddenly understood something as he calmly asked: “Mom, at what time did you sleep last night?”

Currently, Gu Yuan’s reaction was very slow. She slowly raised her head: “Two o’clock, or maybe three o’clock…..or was it four o’clock? I don’t really remember….”

Ji Qisen’s eyes twitched as he looked at Gu Yuan disagreeably: “Did you play the mobile phone for the whole night until you fell asleep?”

When Gu Yuan heard the words “mobile phone”, her eyes suddenly lit up: “Right, Qisen, you didn’t know. Last night, I had fought against Lu Zhiqian’s fans for up to three hundred rounds. They were all just ‘elementary school chickens’, how could they ever be my opponent. So I won all the fights! I’m so happy!”

[TN: 小学鸡 – elementary school chickens]

Ji Qisen’s face suddenly turned black: “Therefore, you were fighting in Weibo all the way until four in the morning?”

Being pointed out directly by her son, as the mother, Gu Yuan felt ashamed for a bit. Her head dropped even lower and almost had her face buried in the milk: “Not really…..After I finished with the fights, I went to play some games….”

Glancing at her son secretly, she whispered: “The game was actually quite fun to play with.”

Ji Qisen suddenly felt that there was a headache coming to his head.

He took a deep breath to calm down and said after a while: “Mom, next time, you must go to bed and sleep by eleven o’clock sharp. If you are unable to do it, then I will confiscate the mobile phone and then you will not be able to play anymore mobile games.”

Confiscating the mobile phone?!

Gu Yuan quivered and immediately sat upright: “Okay! I will definitely go to bed at eleven o’clock in the future and never stay up late! ”

Ji Qisen nodded with satisfaction: “You eat your breakfast first. Afterwards, we will go and retrieve back your house.”

Gu Yuan: “I can get my house back? Would they return the house back to us so easily? My death certificate had already been issued and the ownership had been switched hands a few times. Do we still have the evidence?”

Ji Qisen glanced at his mother, who was full of questions. His eyes twitched and he faintly replied: “All those were just trivial stuff.”

Gu Yuan:………………………

It was an understatement but he looked so domineering and shine so brightly!

What a good tyrant son!

***************

Ji Qisen took Gu Yuan into the car and they rushed towards Gu Yuan’s house.

When they arrived at the neighbourhood, his grand car that was the most low-profile but still worth 40 million was still as blinding as ever to the passers-by. Looking at the passers-by who looked back and even took pictures with their mobile phone, Gu Yuan sighed with sorrow: “Goose(Son), actually you can be even more low-profile.”

[TN: Gu Yuan called her son goose(鹅子 é zǐ) which was homonym with son(儿子 er zi)]

Twenty-five years ago, before Gu Yuan was put into a deep sleep, although she was attractive, in a place like the Film Academy where beautiful women were just a dime in a dozen, no matter how beautiful her face was, she was still not eye-catching. Therefore, she was actually an unknown person in the academy.

She had never expected that there would come a day when she would be so high-profile and posh.

Ji Qisen glanced at her: “Aren’t this very low profile already?”

Gu Yuan: “………”

Okay, I’ll just shut up and not say anything!

Ji Qisen: “Also, what is it about goose?”

Gu Yuan: “……Aren’t this currently the popular way of speaking?”

She had already slept for twenty-five years. She naturally ought to keep up with the modern time and learn to use a new civilized choice of words. She also needed to strive to not lag behind time.

The corner of Ji Qisen’s lips twitched: “Mom, please don’t learn this kind of thing.”

What were all these, he began to wonder if his decision of giving her a mobile phone was a mistake since the beginning?

Gu Yuan glanced at Ji Qisen in surprise. She had fought bravely for one whole night and she had already understood the current modern-day popular way of speaking. How come her son didn’t understand it? Is her son outdated?

Ji QIsen knew that Gu Yuan was looking at him with suspicions, but he ignored it.

His good friend’s mother was already fifty years old and she just started to menopause. She would call his good friend every day and nagged him to get married soon. It was even to the extent that his good friend felt helpless because his mother was old and was having her menopause.

On the other hand, for him, how could he have ever thought that he would have such a young mother. On top of that, he also felt very helpless because she was such a chuunibyou mother.
