"It's settled then."
"There's no time like the present. Today, you're going to become sworn brothers with Xiaochun.”
Cheng Yaojin laughed and pulled Cheng Chumo to Li Chun's residence.
"Hey, dad, wait…"
Looking at Cheng Yaojin's anxious look, Cheng Chumo said helplessly," This is not a small matter. We have to prepare for it."”
"Besides, even if I agree, Xiaochun might not be happy about it. Shouldn't we ask for his opinion? What if they were unwilling? Wouldn't that be awkward?”
"This…"
Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin was also stunned.
Obviously, he had never thought about Li Chun's opinion on this.
"You're right." Then, he nodded and said," It seems that we have to ask that kid.”
"How about this? You go get ready. I'm going to Xiaochun's place.”
After saying that, he ignored Cheng Chumo and left the room, striding towards Li Chun's courtyard.
"This, Father…did he take the wrong medicine?”
Looking at Cheng Yaojin's hurried appearance, Cheng Chumo was a little confused.
Ever since he was young, he had never seen Cheng Yaojin rush his son to become sworn brothers with an ordinary poor person.
"Could it be that Xiaochun's status isn't as simple as a pauper?”
Obviously, Cheng Chumo wasn't stupid. From the moment Li Chun entered the mansion and was seen by Cheng Yaojin, to his father's abnormal behavior, he had some doubts about Li Chun's identity.
"Child, how can you say that?”
However, even as Cheng Chumo was thinking about it, Lady Cui heard him muttering, and her eyebrows shot up."Your father had his reasons for wanting you to become sworn brothers with Xiaochun. How could he possibly harm you?" Whatever I tell you to do, just do it.”
Although the Chui Corporation did not know about Li Chun's background, she had followed Cheng Yaojin for many years and naturally knew that with Cheng Yaojin's personality, he would definitely not make a blind guess. Obviously, there must be something hidden behind this, and this secret was terrifying. Otherwise, Cheng Yaojin would not have kept it from her.
"Ah, okay, okay. I'll go prepare now.”
After being reprimanded by Cui Shi, Cheng Chumo quickly nodded and ran out of the room to prepare for the ceremony.
……
"Greetings, Master…"
"Greetings, Master…"
At the same time!
In the courtyard where Li Chun was.
Just as Li Chun was sitting by the edge of the pool and playing with the fish in the pool, Cheng Yaojin strode in. All the servants and maids greeted him.
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand at the servants and then rushed to Li Chun.
"Uncle…Cheng."
Seeing Cheng Yaojin in such a hurry, Li Chun cupped his fists and asked with a surprised expression," What's the matter?"”
"Hahaha…I am indeed anxious.”
Cheng Yaojin laughed heartily, then went straight to the point."Xiaochun, let me ask you something. Do you like that bastard of mine?”He was naturally referring to Cheng Chumo.
" This..." Li Chun was taken aback for a moment, then said," Chumo is an open-minded and loyal person. He doesn't use his status to suppress others, and he doesn't even hesitate to spend a large amount of food to save the suffering of the poor. I admire such a loyal person."”
Li Chun wasn't complimenting Cheng Yaojin. He was speaking from the bottom of his heart. Cheng Chumo didn't hesitate to put down his status and bow to beg for help for a family general. He was even willing to risk his life to save Li Chun without knowing his true strength. From this point alone, he was worth befriending.
Moreover, Cheng Chumo fulfilled his promise and solved the food problem of the villagers of Black Water Village in the future. He regarded Chengruo as precious as gold. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was righteous and open-minded.
"Good, well said."
Hearing Li Chun's words, Cheng Yaojin laughed again.
"In that case, are you willing to become sworn brothers with that brat?”
Cheng Yaojin's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Other people didn't know Li Chun's identity, but he had already guessed it. He had even confirmed this guess. As a father, the reason why he was so anxious to let Cheng Chumo and Li Chun become sworn brothers was just to pave the way for Cheng Chumo's future.
"Become sworn brothers?"
Li Chun was stunned again. Obviously, he didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to let Cheng Chumo become sworn brothers with a commoner like him. After all, there was a huge difference between his status and Cheng Chumo's. Of course, this was also the reason why Li Chun didn't know his true identity.
"Could it be because he saw my potential?”
Thinking of this, Li Chun suddenly became enlightened. After all, Cheng Yaojin had already seen his strength. With his eyes, he must know that he would be extraordinary in the future. Moreover, if he became sworn brothers with Cheng Chumo, it would be beneficial to him. Li Chun naturally would not refuse.
" Chumo has the status of the Duke, and I am just a commoner…" He was afraid of climbing up the social ladder.”
Then, he cupped his fists at Cheng Yaojin and said with a smile," The difference between the two is like the difference between clouds and mud. I'm afraid of climbing up the social ladder by becoming sworn brothers with Chumo. Besides, I..."
"What bullsh * t social climbing!"
Before Li Chun could finish, Cheng Yaojin glared at him and interrupted him.
"If I wasn't here, would that brat be able to enjoy his current status? Not to mention that you're just a commoner, how can that brat compare to your strength and tenacity?”
"Let me ask you." Cheng Yaojin's temper flared up. He stared at Li Chun and asked," Tell me directly, are you willing to become sworn brothers with that bastard?”
Although Cheng Yaojin really wanted to make this happen, he wasn't someone who would force him. If Li Chun didn't want to, he wouldn't force him.
"Uncle Cheng, don't be angry."
Looking at Cheng Yaojin's current appearance, Li Chun immediately confirmed his thoughts." Chumo is open-minded and loyal. Uncle Cheng has taken good care of me. I'm naturally willing to become sworn brothers with Chumo."”
"Hahaha…that's more like it."
Hearing Li Chun's answer, Cheng Yaojin laughed out loud and felt relieved.
If he could make this happen, his son would not have to worry about his future anymore…
