"Didn't you once say that you wanted to study at Tsinghua University or Peking University in the capital? Those are world-renowned universities. Besides, are you really going to leave your mother behind and go overseas on your own?"
The world of mixed-race people is fraught with danger. Do you really want to see us, the white-haired, bury our black-haired children...?
As he spoke, Chu Tianjiao raised his arm as if to wipe away tears, but in reality, not a single tear fell. His eyes darted around as he secretly observed Chu Zihang's reaction.
"Has anyone ever told you that your acting is really bad?" Chu Zihang ruthlessly exposed Chu Tianjiao's pretense, then continued on his own:
"After I found out that you weren't an ordinary person, Dad, I asked Brother Han to help me investigate you. Do you want to know the results of the investigation?"
"what?"
A look of astonishment appeared on Chu Tianjiao's face.
This time it wasn't an act, it was real. He never expected that his own son would ask someone else to investigate him.
Thinking of Cao Han, whose true strength and identity were unknown, Chu Tianjiao felt a little apprehensive, worried that the other party might have actually discovered something.
"nothing."
Chu Zihang has always been very perceptive, and even in a moment he noticed his father Chu Tianjiao's nervousness, so he swallowed back the words he had prepared.
A child's admiration for their father often stems from the subtle influence of growing up.
The father I learned about from Cao Han was like a completely different person from the father I remembered.
He didn't tell Chu Tianjiao that the reason he wanted to enter Kassel College was to see the place where his father had studied and lived, and to personally understand what kind of person his father was.
"Uncle Lu used to be your subordinate, right?"
"Cough cough cough cough—what nonsense are you talking about?"
Chu Tianjiao was so startled by Chu Zihang's sudden remark that he choked on his own saliva and began to cough incessantly, though it seemed more like he was trying to cover something up.
"Uncle Lu and Mom have always treated each other with respect and never overstepped their bounds. In addition, they have always treated me as their own son."
Of course, all of this can be explained by a man's gentlemanly conduct, but..."
As he spoke, Chu Zihang paused, his gaze fixed on the subtle changes in his father's face.
Some people with deep cunning can remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses before them, but some subtle instinctive reactions cannot be faked.
For example, a sudden dilation of the pupils, or a twitch at the corner of the eyebrow.
These subconscious actions all imply that a person's mental state is fluctuating greatly at this moment.
In fact, the above was all a deliberate trick by Chu Zihang to deceive his father, Chu Tianjiao, but he never expected that his unintentional act would be so close to the truth.
"But, but, but, but what? Don't talk nonsense without evidence." Chu Tianjiao was still stubbornly pretending to be calm.
"Indeed, due to access restrictions, Brother Han didn't find much information about you, Dad, but Uncle Lu was probably your doing, so it's impossible to avoid big data information collection."
Everything leaves a trace!
The Lu Group's development has been far too smooth, seemingly blessed by divine intervention, but beneath that facade lies a hidden hand pulling the strings. I suspect that hand is you, Dad?"
Chu Tianjiao slumped back in his sofa chair, his expression a complex mix of emotions, unsure whether to be happy or angry.
Seeing his son so outstanding, he should have been happy as a father, but unfortunately, his years of hard work in pretending had been exposed.
Of course, it's not all bad from another perspective.
At least it made Chu Tianjiao realize that his "disguise" still had many obvious loopholes, and Odin might have tracked him down through these clues and loopholes.
"Zihang, there are some things I can't tell you right now."
"I see."
No! You don't understand!
Chu Tianjiao shook his head with a heavy expression. He couldn't tell Chu Zihang how important what he was protecting was, that it even concerned the safety of the entire world.
If he could, he wouldn't even want Chu Zihang to awaken his dragon bloodline; he just wanted him to live an excellent life as an ordinary person.
Cao Han!
For some reason, Chu Tianjiao suddenly recalled a stormy night, a day filled with torrential rain, and the image of the boy who fought fiercely with Odin from mythology in the sky.
The thought that the boy was now also in Kassel College made her resolve to disagree with Chu Zihang going to Kassel College waver for a moment.
If there is one, there are two!
After narrowly escaping death in the Nibelungen during a stormy night, Chu Tianjiao kept thinking about whether he should go into hiding in an unfamiliar city.
If Odin could target him once, he could do it a second time, a third time, or even countless times before achieving his goal.
Chu Tianjiao was unable to make a decision for a long time because of his "family" ties.
But Chu Zihang's request to attend Kassel College provided him with a new idea:
After his son entered Kassel College, with Cao Han protecting him, Odin probably wouldn't cause trouble unless he was really thinking of something.
It's fine to entrust your wife to the care of your most trusted subordinate.
In this way, he could leave with peace of mind and choose another unfamiliar city to continue his undercover mission.
"Have you decided when you want to enter Kassel College? This year or after the college entrance exam next year?"

Chu Zihang was puzzled by Chu Tianjiao's rapid change in attitude, but the fact that his father no longer objected was undoubtedly good news.
"What do you mean by this year or next year? It's like you think I can just come in whenever you want."
"Of course, your father was one of the few S-class students at Kassel College back in the day. You are my son, who inherited my excellent bloodline. Getting in is already giving them face."
"Let's wait until the end of the second year of high school."
After a moment's thought, Chu Zihang gave his answer.
There's a reason why he didn't go immediately, but instead chose to finish his second year of high school, which had long since lost much meaning for him.
"Senior Brother Chu, you're so amazing! Can you teach me?"
"Go, Zihang!"
"Wow, look how cute that dolphin is!"
"Ahhh, I'm so scared of this roller coaster! Can I hold your hand?"
"..."
The thought of ending his high school career early and leaving Shilan Middle School made Chu Zihang's mind uncontrollably conjure up images of beautiful women.
Chapter 179 The Lingering Ghost of the "Crown Prince"
Children's Palace Kendo Hall.
With the introduction of his senior brother Chu Zihang, who was known as the "Sword Saint of the Children's Palace," Lu Mingfei joined the school to learn swordsmanship with almost no obstacles.
To quote Chu Zihang's teacher at the Children's Palace: "Zihang, your strength is even greater than the teacher's. I would be more than happy to welcome you to our Kendo Club!"
A living advertisement!
This is Chu Zihang's status in the Kendo Club of the Children's Palace.
More than 60% of the teenagers who came to sign up did so not to learn some useless swordsmanship, but to catch a glimpse of Senior Brother Chu's "beautiful face," and it would be even better if they could have the opportunity to receive personal guidance.
Chu Zihang, who has always been a loner, probably doesn't know that two sets of "course schedules" have been circulating in the Kendo social exchange group created by his teacher.
One set includes Chu, the other does not.
"Let's warm up with 100 simple vibrations before moving on to the next step of the exercise."
"Okay, Senior Brother Chu."
Hybrids are naturally stronger than ordinary people, not to mention that Lu Mingfei's Word of Power can make training twice as effective.
Therefore, Chu Zihang's requirements for Lu Mingfei were very strict. The warm-up consisted of 100 repetitions of the Su Zhen exercise, which had to be done at full strength and with standard form to count.
Different people have different understandings of Kendo.
This is the lesson Chu Zihang learned from Cao Han.
He used to think that the so-called Kendo was just the skill of using a sword. Although this understanding was not entirely wrong, it was a bit superficial.
The best example is Cao Han.
Having absolutely no background in kendo, yet being able to easily defeat an opponent simply by brute force—isn't that also a form of kendo?
This path simply isn't suitable for Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei.
To be honest, Chu Zihang felt that his personality was not suited to teaching people, and since he couldn't think of any better methods, he could only use the most simple and unadorned way to train Lu Mingfei.
While building a solid foundation, we also gain practical experience.
As for actual combat, only he, the "Sword Saint of the Youth Palace," can do it.
After the twice-weekly kendo sparring sessions, Lu Mingfei inevitably ended up with bruises and swelling on his face, but fortunately, Chu Zihang was very careful when he attacked.
Lu Mingfei only needs to use a spell on himself while washing up, and the next second he will immediately become "radiant" again.
The tingling, numb feeling that came over his body when he released his incantation was so intoxicating that Lu Mingfei couldn't help but groan when he was hiding in the washroom, which was overheard by the other students who were also in the washroom.
The combination of a toilet and ecstatic moans could easily lead to misunderstandings among men.
Coupled with Lu Mingfei's astonishingly rapid and remarkable progress since joining the kendo club, a strange legend arose among the students:
As long as you "release" your true self immediately after exercising, you can accelerate your progress!
"I've told you so many times, don't rely on your eyes when fighting someone."
"Then what?"
"Rely on intuition! Rely on muscle memory!"
Snapped--
As he spoke, Chu Zihang swung his wooden knife at Lu Mingfei, who was distracted and slow to react.
Under Chu Zihang's unreserved guidance, Lu Mingfei absorbed all sorts of knowledge and skills like a sponge that had been parched for a long time and then received sweet rain. Many of these were "practical tips" that money couldn't necessarily buy.
At first, Lu Mingfei couldn't even withstand a single strike from Chu Zihang's all-out attack, but now he can actually exchange blows with Chu Zihang in a respectable manner.
As for whether Chu Zihang was behind it, it's already quite obvious.
Huhuhu~
