Chapter 1166: same birthday

Translator: 549690339 

it was just as fang shan had said. when xu pingfei saw the empty plate, although she was surprised, she was more happy.

after the meal, fang yu ‘an and ouyang chao chatted with ah ming and listened to him talk about the interesting things he had encountered since he started working. xu pingfei was carrying two plates of after-meal fruits. she placed the fruits in front of ah ming.

once again, ouyang chao was the first to reach out to steal the durian.

xu pingfei hit his hand again. ” you’re stealing food again! ”

while eating the durian, ouyang chao’s round eyes kept rolling. he was too busy to talk. xu pingfei laughed and scolded him for being embarrassed. then, she said to ah ming, ” your uncle ouyang has always been like this. he’s like a child who can’t grow up. you’re being too polite. ”

ah ming could hear the fondness in xu pingfei’s seemingly disdainful tone. he then said, ” uncle ouyang is a kind person. grandma xu is blessed. ”

xu pingfei’s lips curled up in a smile.

“ah ming, eat some fruit.”

“alright,” he said.

ah ming turned sideways, took off his mask, and ate some fruit. after eating a few pieces, he stopped touching them.

fang yu ‘an stared at a’ ming’s eyes and felt that he should be young, at most in his early twenties. he admired this person in his heart. at such a young age, he already had such deep metaphysics attainments.

fang yu ‘an asked ah ming, ” mr. ah ming, may i ask how old you are? ”

upon hearing this, ah ming raised his head and found that everyone was looking at him. he said softly, ” i’m eighteen. ”

!

fang shan’s expression was the most exaggerated.

“you’re only eighteen?”

fang shan stared at him, his eyes filled with shock.

ah ming hummed in agreement. he saw everyone’s incredulous expressions and found it funny. “what, you don’t believe me? do you want me to show you my id?”

ah ming actually took out his id card. perhaps he thought that the photo was too ugly, so he even covered it up.

fang shan went over to take a look. as expected, he was from the same year as him. what was even more amazing was that ah ming’s birthday was on the same day as his! “we have the same birthday! what a fate!”

ah ming smiled and told fang shan, ” i’ve said before that we’re fated. ”

fang shan believed a ‘ming’s words. he liked ah ming even more now. they were born on the same day, and he had saved his life once. fang shan was determined to be good brothers with ah ming for life.

ah ming asked fang shan and the rest, ” do you believe me now? ”

“i believe you.”

fang shan thought of something and said, ” so your full name is wu ming. ”

“yes.”

fang shan furrowed his brows. he felt that the name did not sound auspicious.

wu ming, nameless, fateless.

no matter how he thought about it, it was not a good name. he really couldn’t understand why ah ming’s mother-in-law would give him such a name. xu pingfei and the others also had strange expressions on their faces. they were probably wondering why ah ming had such an ominous name.

seeing their confusion, ah ming did not feel bad. he told them frankly and explained, ” i’m called wu ming because when granny picked me up, i was already a dying person. it was my mother-in-law who saved me. she said that i should have died when i was born. i was forcefully saved by her, which is against fate. he named me wu ming in hopes that the brat wouldn’t be able to find my name. that way, he wouldn’t be able to hook me away and grow up healthy.”

seeing that everyone seemed to believe him, ah ming added, ” i don’t believe in these things. what king of hell, little devil, it’s all nonsense.”

a ‘ming was talented and good at fortune-telling. he was accepted by the metaphysics society of binjiang university at a young age and had graduated last year. in the field of metaphysics, wu ming was a very famous junior. he was a truly powerful metaphysics expert, and it was easy to tell that he was a strange person.

he was clearly a living person, but he had no future.

no one could predict his future.

his mother-in-law had said that his birth date was the eight characters of death. she was destined to die when she was born.

perhaps this name really had an effect. when he was young, ah ming was also weak and sick, but he finally survived.

after sitting at fang shan’s house for a while, ah ming stood up and left.

fang shan insisted on sending him home.

ah ming rejected but fang shan still insisted. ah ming had no choice but to let him send him home. ah ming’s family lived in a very old neighborhood, where there were not many young people.

fang shan wanted to send him to the district, but ah ming did not agree no matter what.

he said, ” just send me to the door. don’t get out of the car. if anyone sees me getting out of such an expensive car, they’ll definitely gossip behind my back. ”

when fang shan heard this, he was about to get angry.

ah ming continued, ” you know that i’m gay. i’m being driven home by a rich man. how can people not think too much about it? ” at this moment, ah ming wanted to thank fang shan for treating him as a gay man.

fang shan was finally convinced by ah ming. “it’s my fault for not considering it properly. alright, let’s get off here.”

fang shan stopped the car. ah ming got out of the car and walked into the neighborhood with his left leg in an awkward position. fang shan rolled down the car window and saw him walk into a residential building before driving off.

every year, xiangjiang international college would select five of the most outstanding second-year students and send them to various universities in the world to pursue a master’s degree.

fang shan wanted to study management at wharton.

he was a high school student of xiangjiang college, so he was able to enter xiangjiang international university without a hitch. however, the results of the college entrance examination were still an important test to enter university. those with good grades would be able to obtain the best teachers and become students that the school would focus on cultivating.

when fang shan received the results and confirmed that he was the second place in the science subjects in the college entrance examination in binjiang city, he heaved a sigh of relief.

when xu pingfei was happy, she sent out invitations to all the aristocratic families and the new rich and powerful to attend her grandson’s graduation banquet. after all, fang shan was the oldest child in the fang family’s generation. his graduation banquet was highly valued by many people.

the graduation party was held at the empire hotel. on that day, almost all the influential people in binjiang city attended.

before the banquet started, xu pingfei dressed fang shan up as a handsome man and carried him up to the stage to give a speech.

fang shan did not want to speak.

however, when he stood on the stage, he calmed down when he saw the gazes of the people below. there were so many people below, how many of them were here for fang shan? and how many people were secretly criticizing his not-so-glorious background in their hearts?

thinking of his father who had died young and his blind mother in prison, fang shan was silent for a moment before he finally spoke. “thank you for taking care of me all these years, grandma and uncles. i’ve grown up without the company of my parents.”

hearing him mention the word “parents,” the servants had different expressions.

xu pingfei’s smile froze. she wasn’t sure if this grandson would do anything stupid.

fang shan took a deep breath and said, ” there are not many setbacks on the road to growth. with someone by my side, i don’t feel lonely. thank you, grandma, for raising me with such difficulty. everyone knows that my biological father is an illegitimate child, and my grandmother is not my biological grandmother.”

some people began to discuss in low voices, and their expressions were wonderful.
