ah ming was very good at reading peopleâs expressions.
he could clearly see that after fang shan heard his question, his eyes suddenly became dim.
ah mingâs heart tightened. could he be dead?
fang shan quickly returned to normal. he said, â my father has been dead for more than ten years. â
fang shanâs tone was very calm, without any fluctuations. ah ming could not hear any other emotions from it. there was no longing, no hatred, and not even a little regret.
this was normal. after all, he had been dead for too many years.
ah ming could not calculate fang shanâs family situation and did not know that fang shan was an orphan.
âwhat about your mother?â
when ah ming asked this, he saw that fang shanâs expression was a little dark. fang shan said coldly, â maybe heâs still alive. â
he might still be alive?
what kind of statement was that?
being alive meant being alive, but there were a few other meanings.
fang shan suddenly placed his hand on ah mingâs shoulder. he asked ah ming, â since youâre so good at divination, come and help me do it. see if my mother is dead or alive. â at first, he sounded like he was teasing her, but ah ming could hear a hint of hatred and disgust in his tone.
ah ming shook his head and said, â i canât calculate it. â
âhow can that be?â fang shan was surprised. â thereâs something you canât predict. didnât you say that you know everything other than things that are related to you?â
ah ming looked at fang shan.
he did not say anything.
fang shan did not think too much about it. he said, â my mother. she lived on the high walls with many people. she has been there for many years. â fang shan drew a big house in front of him with both hands. he smiled at ah ming and said, â can you guess where that is? â
ah ming blinked and said, â i canât guess. â
âyouâre lying,â fang shan tapped ah mingâs nose, saying that he was disobedient. â you obviously guessed it, but you still lied and said you didnât know. â
ah mingâs upper body moved back a little and he leaned on the sofa. he carefully pulled the strap of the mask behind his ear. after confirming that it was still there, he heaved a sigh of relief.
âis this a prison?â ah ming had indeed guessed it.
fang shan only smiled, but his smile was cold. he didnât speak, but ah ming understood what he meant. â have you been living with your grandmother and the others all these years? â
âyes.â
ah ming responded with an âohâ and did not look at fang shan again, but his expression was very complicated.
fang shan had heard these questions from a âming too many times. hence, he did not find it strange to hear aâ ming ask these questions. he looked at the time and saw that it was almost 12 o âclock. he looked up and asked xu pingfei and the cook in the kitchen, â grandma, is the food not ready yet? â
â thereâs also a vegetable. just wait. â
âthen iâll serve the dishes and set up the table.â
fang shan stood up and prepared to help. ah ming stood up as well. he said to fang shan, â iâll help too. â
âno, youâre a guest.â another reason why fang shan rejected ah mingâs help was that ah mingâs legs were not well. although he did not know what was wrong with his legs, fang shan really liked this friend and naturally could not bear to bully him.
ah ming felt embarrassed. just then, fang yu âan came downstairs to pick ouyang chao up. when he heard the conversation between fang shan and ah ming, he held ah mingâs shoulder and said, â mr. ah ming, you are an important guest. our family does not neglect our important guests. â
in the eyes of xu pingfei and fang yu âan, ah ming was the honored guest who had saved fang shanâs life. they would definitely not let him help.
ah ming had no choice but to sit down and watch fang shan run back and forth.
a moment later, fang yu âan led a man with a baby face in. the baby-faced man was quite tall. he was wearing a loose gray t-shirt and black casual pants. ah ming noticed that the two of them had come in hand in hand.
ah ming remembered that when they were having dinner a while ago, fang shan had asked him if he was gay.
these two people should be the âsame kindâ that fang shan mentioned.
fang yu âan did not know that ah ming and fang shan had discussed sexual orientation a long time ago. he saw a âming staring at his hand that was holding chaochaoâs hand with a complicated look and thought that aâ ming was bothered by this.
fang yu âan did not let go of ouyang chaoâs hand. he smiled at ah ming and said, â this is my wife, her surname is ouyang. â
ah ming was slow to come back to his senses. he looked at the baby-faced man and called out in a nervous tone, â uncle ouyang. â
â how old are you? i heard from my brother that youâre a divine clairvoyant. â ouyang chao let go of fang yu âan and pushed ah ming to sit down on the sofa. he asked ah ming, â tell me if my brother will cheat on me in this life. â
fang yu âan was speechless.
ah ming seriously calculated for him and then said, â i wonât. â
ouyang chao patted ah mingâs head and praised him. â my brother is right. youâre a divine clairvoyant. youâre so accurate! â
ah ming was speechless.
a âming secretly rubbed his head, which was throbbing with pain from ouyang chaoâs slap.
was uncle ouyangâs hand a stone?
he felt like his head was about to explode.
fang yu âan saw ah ming rubbing his head and quickly said to ouyang chao, â chaochao, youâre hurting ah ming. â ouyang chao stuck out his tongue in embarrassment. he helped a âming rub his head. this time, he was quite gentle. âiâm sorry, i didnât control my strength.â
ah ming grunted in a daze.
seeing that he had done something wrong, ouyang chao felt a little embarrassed. he got up and ran to the kitchen to steal some food. ah ming was still rubbing his head when he heard xu pingfeiâs grandmother scolding uncle ouyang. â kid, youâre eating pig trotters again. how many times have i told you to eat? eating secretly is not a good habit! â
ouyang chao said, â mom, what are you angry about? i only ate a piece of pig trotter. i didnât cheat on you. â
xu pingfei was so angry that her chest was trembling.
fang yu âan looked at this scene with a smile and did not say anything. fang shan also seemed to be used to it. ah ming was surprised for a moment, but he calmly accepted the different personalities of this family.
when the meal was ready, fang shan came over to ask ah ming if it was convenient for him to take off his mask and eat with him.
ah ming said nervously, â my pimples are in the middle of an outbreak these few days, and theyâre very ugly. iâd better eat them at the side. â
even though it was a pity, fang shan still respected a âmingâs decision.
fang shan prepared a small portion of each dish for ah ming and brought them to the living room. because fang shan had given them prior notice, xu pingfei and the others did not disturb ah ming in the living room during the meal. they were afraid of making master god-diviner unhappy.
as ah ming ate the food that xu pingfei had personally made, his handsome face looked like he was crying.
he finished all the dishes, not leaving a single drop.
when fang shan came to clear the dishes, he saw that all the dishes were empty. he first revealed a shocked expression before saying, â if my grandma sees that youâve finished all the dishes she made, sheâll definitely be very happy. â
âum ⦠grandma xuâs cooking is very delicious.â ah ming seemed to smile. he said, â i couldnât help it, so i ate more. â
âwhatâs the big deal, i have to be like you.â
