Chapter 929: Trip to Beidu (14)

"Dad, can you tell me about your trip to Yuansu?" Duan Xin asked.

Duan Qirui looked at him suspiciously: "Why do you want to know this?"

Duan Xin pursed his lips, and because he was not sure, he did not rush to answer, but said: "I am more curious, does uncle really have a child? Is he older or younger than me?"

Duan Qirui thought about the information he saw and said: "Younger than you."

"Did you see it, Dad?"

Duan Qirui's eyes flashed, but he did not answer his question again, but said: "Why do you care so much about children? Go to bed early." After that, he turned and went into the room a few meters away.

Because of his severe mysophobia, the second master of the Duan family's bathroom and rest area are not together, and his room is absolutely not allowed to be entered before taking a bath.

Knowing how serious Duan Qirui's mysophobia is, Duan Xin did not follow him in even if he did not get the answer he wanted, and could only go to the third floor to sleep with a heavy heart.

The next morning, when Duan Xin got up, Grandpa Duan downstairs was already sitting at the dining table eating breakfast. Duan Xin walked down and called him grandpa obediently.

Grandpa Duan glanced at him, thought of something, put down the newspaper in his hand, and asked: "How are your grades now? Have you hired the tutor your dad said he would hire last time?"

Duan Xin's face flashed with embarrassment. He was good at everything, good-looking, and good at basketball, but his grades were not good. Maybe he was not born to study. Seeing those things gave him a headache.

Duan Xin was vague and didn't know how to answer. Grandpa Duan understood what he meant by this. A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and finally calmed down.

Because the second master of the Duan family had divorced a long time ago, Duan Qirui had never moved out of the old house in these years, and Duan Xin was also watched by Grandpa Duan.

Duan Xin was in a playful mood now, and he didn't like to face his strict grandfather. He grabbed two cakes and ran out with his schoolbag.

They were all fourteen or fifteen years old, but they were still so unreliable. Grandpa Duan's eyelids twitched and his face became even worse.

The housekeeper standing next to him whispered to comfort him: "Master, the young master is still young, he will be fine when he grows up."

Old Master Duan didn't say anything, just shook his head. He knew that even if Duan Xin grew up, he might not be able to support the entire Duan family.

Thinking of his eldest son who was still lying in the hospital and might leave at any time, and thinking about the Duan family that might decline because of this, Old Master Duan couldn't help but twist his heart.

——

When Duan Xin arrived at school, he used to play basketball to warm up first, but today he didn't, but climbed upstairs. He is fourteen years old and is in the first grade of junior high school.

Because someone came to their school for an exam today, the second grade of junior high school was given a half-day holiday, but other grades still had to go to class as usual.

It was more than eight o'clock in the morning, and the exam time was nine o'clock, and there was still more than half an hour, but in order not to delay the exam, the candidates had already entered the examination room one after another, and Xu Xu and others also arrived before half past eight.

There were eight classrooms on the first floor of the second grade of junior high school, and there were teachers guarding both ends. Duan Xin couldn't go up, so he could only wait at the corner.

When he saw Xu Xu coming with other students, he immediately walked up to him and shouted to Xu Xu: "Hello, classmate."

Everyone looked over when they heard the voice.

The teacher in charge looked at Duan Xin, who was obviously a student of this school, and turned around and asked: "Xu Xu, do you know this classmate?"
