Alex didn't hear David answer, and asked again, "Where are you, why don't you talk?"
David saw the look on Nada's face, thumped his heart, and hung up the phone.
Nada asked with a grimace, "Male mom? Mom? Is that how you told your hair about me?"
David clarified in a whisper, "I didn't say that, he misunderstood himself!"
Nada said, "Oh? And what were your original words?"
David said, "I'd say you're just like my mom ..."
Nada: "..."
Nada asks, "Is there a difference?"
David no longer know how to read faces, but also can feel from Nada's body emanating from the stagnant atmosphere, he hurriedly explained: "You listen to me to finish! My original statement was that you are like my mom, no one can leave his mom alone, otherwise that would be an animal! I was expressing how much I care about you!"
It sounded like a human sentence, but Nada's face didn't change, he nodded, and said, "Yes, I do look like your mom, do you think I'm like a strict mother who locks you up and forces you to study?"
"No, I know you're doing this for my own good and that I'm the one who wants to study with you." David said sheepishly, "I'm really just making a comparison, I don't think of you as mom, I think of you as ..." He suddenly paused.
Nada: "Take me for what?"
David wanted to say something, but didn't, and Nada looked at him, her voice a little lighter, "Why don't you say something?"
David goaded, "I'm afraid you'll hit me if I say it."
Nada looked at him quietly, and said, "You tell me, I won't hit you."
David said, "Wife."
Nada blinked slowly, "Wife?"
David gave a few dry chuckles, "Do you believe me when I say I think of you as my wife?"
Nada: "Faith, then?"
David was a little flustered when he heard that, his eyes darting around, just not daring to look at him, "Why did you believe it? I'm just saying it off the top of my head."
Nada gazed at him and said softly, "Well, then I don't believe it."
The atmosphere inexplicably felt like it had fallen into a hot steamer, and David, burning inside, suddenly had a slight impulse---or else keep Nada as his wife!
Anyway, the previous generation had gotten used to the cold Nada of that time, and the current Nada was more lively and cute, and often smiled at him and spoke to him in a gentle tone, so what reason did he have not to marry him?
But people like girls now? How embarrassing for him to say it and get rejected, and he's so good that Nada actually doesn't like him!
He could still remember Nada's comment that he didn't like him even if they were the only two left in the world!
David went off on a tangent and didn't say anything for a moment when Nada suddenly whipped her head around, "You check the score."
Nada did not continue to talk, David in turn inexplicably lost, he absentmindedly continued to check the score, this time the system is not stuck, David managed to click in.
At this moment David is surprisingly calm, the face of checking the score is not nervous or panic, he entered his pass number and password, jumped out of the page, but all 0 points.
David's eyes widened, and Nada saw it next to him.
David finally panicked, "That's not right, why did I get all 0's?"
Nada heart also missed a beat, the brain a blank, after a while, he suddenly thought up, "our province top 50, out of the score results are confidential, will it be because of this ..."
David said, "But no one from Harvard came to see me."
At this point he reddened in aggravation, "I obviously checked my name and pass number several times and didn't miss anything, how come I didn't get any marks?"
Nada reached out and hugged him, patting his spine, "Don't you cry, take it easy, I'll call and ask Mignon."
He took out his cell phone and made a call to Mignon, who said, "Oh, that's right, David scored pretty high too it seems, and what I wanted to ask, the principal said to call his parents personally and would tell his parents, and you can ask him to ask his dad, I guess his dad would know sooner."
Hanging up the phone, Nada was about to say something when David sat bolt upright and said, "I remember, I filled in all my contact numbers with my dad!"
Nada: "..."
David said, "I'm going to call my dad right now and ask him."
When David finished, he pulled out his cell phone to call Adolf, and to his surprise, it was hung up on by Adolf before he could beep for a few seconds.
David: "..."
His eyes widened in shock, he had never been the only one to hang up on Adolf, he didn't think Adolf would hang up on him!
Unbelieving, David called a few more times, and without exception they all hung up.
Nada looks on, "You're asking for it."
David: "..."
Adolf hung up with David and joyfully, and again holding down his excitement, breezily typed to the family group, "The test scores are out, the principal of their school called me personally to tell me that my son scored a 682."
The group was silent and no one spoke.
Adolf doesn't care and continues typing, "Hey, the test was too little, with that IQ of his mom's he shouldn't have gotten a 682, but barely, after all, it's only been two months of study."
After saying that, he sent out a red packet, and just after sending it out, the sound of ding dong immediately appeared, and within a few seconds, the red packet was snatched up.
Adolf types, "So you guys are in."
Qin Lulu, the elder brother's daughter, said, "Congratulations to Uncle Sam, this is a great thing."
Adolf skimmed the corners of his mouth, his son had done well on the exams, the whole family group, only he was the happiest, he sighed, if he wasn't around anymore, his son would still be eaten up by these people.
While Adolf thought so, he Ait'd Qin Dejiang, "Big brother, I remember that Wenxuan's exam score is also only 624, right?"
Qin Dejiang bubbled, "Which provincial exam questions are easier this year than in previous years, how can this be compared?"
Adolf said, "Year after year, they say that the exam questions are easier than last year's, but the total score has always been 750, and the major universities and colleges admission score line is not higher than 600 points ah. "
Qin Dejiang did not speak, after a while, and Mat Ait out, said in a conspiratorial manner, "You waste, when you took a test of 624 points, you are complacent, think you are very great, look at you Zhong Yue brother, two months can improve three hundred points, do you think you should be proud?"
Mat said, "Who knows if some of the people didn't take the test scores themselves, maybe they copied them."
Adolf took a look and his face instantly became gloomy, ''Wen Xuan, are you questioning the fairness and impartiality of the exam with these words? You don't know what kind of person your brother Zhong Yue is? He wouldn't cheat even if he handed in a blank paper, you negate his two months of hard work with a simple sentence like that do you think you can match him?"
"Let me tell you, how did he live these two months, he only sleeps for five hours a day, from eleven thirty to four thirty, he gets up at four thirty to study, he even goes to the toilet with a stopwatch to go up, can you do that? If you dare to denigrate your brother again, I really have to wonder how your father taught you, if you can't even educate your son well, how can I still feel comfortable handing over the maritime project to him?"
As soon as he heard this, Qin Dejiang immediately jumped out to soften: "forward ah children do not understand you do not take his words to heart, I turn back to teach him, Zhong Yue test such a high score is a big good thing ah, back to the old house and Dad said, have to make a good big party to do."
After saying that, he transferred a sum of money to Adolf, "This is the red packet I gave Zhong Yue, you help him to keep it, don't be angry ah, family and everything is happy, family and everything is happy."
Adolf eased his tone, "Just so you know, Wenxuan's temperament, if it wasn't for his family's thick background, he wouldn't have known how many legs would have been broken."
Qin Dejiang heard, his face stiffened, over the years Adolf made it big, and eased up a lot on them brothers, he actually forgot how brutal he was when he was young.
Adolf hadn't done much to make an example of him back then, and now everyone knew that even if they didn't like Adolf any more, those of them would still have to rely on the brother for food after all.
Adolf has the authority to say anything in the group, and that's already his backbone.
Qin Dejiang completely extinguished the fire, and soon Mat also came out to apologize, posturing very low, but Adolf ignored him.
He called David's mom, Zhong Ning, who was fine, still in a state of being blackmailed, and he called his brother-in-law, Zhong Yi, and asked him to pass on David's test scores.
It was only at this point that he remembered David, who he called, beeped for a few seconds, and was hung up on.
Adolf: "..."
It's not necessary to have such a round-robin system between father and son.
Adolf continues to call David, and the second one is answered quickly.
David picked up the phone and yelled, "Dad!"
Without questioning why Adolf hung up on him, he got right to the point and asked, "Dad what grade did I get?"
Adolf said pleasantly, "You can guess."
David got cranky, "Dad don't tease me, hurry up, the stars are waiting!"
Adolf says, "682 points, good son, your mom will be happy to know!"
As soon as David heard that, his whole body put on a glow, "682? Dad are you serious?"
Adolf said, "Really, the principal of your school said it himself, how can it be false?"
David hurriedly hung up and said to Nada, "Stars me 682 points!!!"
Nada heard, still did not relax expression, "last year Tsinghua admission line is 676, this year 682 a little mysterious."
David: "... I don't think it should be too much of a problem?"
Nada remained worried, "Let's see what the admission line is."
David, however, was already confident, he called Jack his dad directly, "Good morning uncle!"
Mo Rulong froze for a moment when he received his call and said, "Zhong Yue, good morning, what's up? Looking for Uncle for something?"
David then told Mo Rulong about the bet they made and his score, "Uncle I'll tell you first, in case Jack reneges you have to take my side!"
Mo Rulon: "..."
Hanging up, Nada was speechless, "Why did you call first when you weren't even sure you'd get on?"
David said seriously, "Can you not think about it for a while, I just want to make the whole family nervous."
Nada: "..."
David said, "Let Jack have to bet me so much!"
You know he only has $100,000 a month in pocket money now!
"..." Nada grimaced, "And you know you're betting big, I thought you didn't think of money as money."
David said sheepishly, "That's not true, I've had my share of spending a hundred a day and working hard all night to get three hundred."
Nada couldn't imagine someone like David working all night, "Three hundred a night? That's a high paying job right, what kind of part time job do you have?"
With a pensive look on his face, David said, "Part-time duck."
With a pensive look on his face, David said, "Part-time duck."
Nada was a little surprised, tone of voice quizzical, "Ducking?"
The derivative meaning of duck hadn't caught on at this point in time, and naturally Nada didn't know what the word meant.
That's why David can say it so boldly, he nods at Nada, still crumpling his batch face, as he remembers the years when Nada humiliated him.
He thought he was worth a thousand bucks, more or less, for that one night, right? At least seven times, from 10:00 p.m., to 5:00 p.m. the next day, for seven hours, from the bedroom to the bathroom, in every position to satisfy him.
He worked so hard, so hard, and in the end he broke his skin, and the doctor prescribed anti-inflammatory and painkillers for several days.
Nada gave him 300 bucks, which isn't even enough to pay for his injuries.
It's a good thing the doctor is a family member and doesn't have to be paid, otherwise the three hundred dollars would have to be folded into the cost of the medication.
David thought about the pain he had suffered at Nada's expense, and resentment swept over him once again.
Why, why, why give him a hundred bucks, what's he gonna do with that? A couple of beers and he'll spend it all, not to mention the fact that he'll have a hard time quitting, so there's got to be a gradual transition period, right?
Because of this he's still completely unsocialized, and that's really no freedom at all.
David's thoughts fluttered, and now he felt very aggravated.
Nada looked at his expression, a little confused, "Is this job tiring?"
David said, "Tired, tired of lying in bed for days, really too tired."
Nada came to her senses and said, "Oh, you went to work washing ducks, right? I wanted to do it during my winter vacation, but washing ducks for a month, including butchering and plucking, from morning to night, only pays 1,500, which is no more than a tutor's salary."
Nada said seriously, "You're already well-paid at three hundred dollars a night; after all, it's manual labor without using your brain. As long as you get into Harvard, even as a duck, you'll be much more noble than average."
David: "..."
If he didn't know the other meaning of no ducks now, he would have thought Nada knew and was laughing at him.
Nada said, "But I didn't think a young man like you, who doesn't eat the food of the world, would go for this kind of part-time job."
The look he gave David was suddenly filled with appreciation, "I was wrong about you, you're really something."
It was hard for David not to feel a lightness come over him under that look--
Grass, Nada actually thinks he's amazing eh.
The former Nada and the current Nada are both the same person, he says he's marvelous, and the former Nada must have felt the same way! Giving 300 bucks for him to buy something good to eat would be heartbreaking!
Making him tonic soup afterward probably wasn't pissing him off either, but was being heartfelt and afraid he'd sperm! Exhausted! Man! Death!
David came back to life and said shyly, "It's not that big a deal, I'm all for the people there! If the people are happy, I am happy!"
Nada cocked a thumb at him and gave him a nod, "You're so thoughtful."
David's face flushed a light red at the compliment, he looked at Nada's bright to soft face, his heart suddenly sped up, his desire to kiss Nada came alive again, but he didn't dare.
Suddenly it came back to me that I don't think I've ever taken the initiative to ask Nada for sex myself in previous generations, and every time it was Nada who made the first move.
Yes, it's usually Nada who, with a cold face, rips off her collar, revealing a delicate section of her collarbone, while forcefully ordering him to undress for sex, sex.
He was all on the side of being invited and ordered.
This feeling became very much like a social animal, even if it was cool, I felt a faint sense of suffocation, as if I had really become a duck serving Nada.
However, now that he doesn't have that opportunity, David is reminded of the old days when he was blessed and didn't know what he was doing.
One is really cheap, David thought.
It's just that Nada, who loves sex and love so much, why is his desire so dim now? He thought he was a big sex fiend.
In hindsight, I'd have been hornier than him when I was seventeen or eighteen, and he was jerking off an average of four times a week.
But Nada seems to have no such worries.
As David wandered off, Nada was looking at David too, and an inexplicable impulse came over him as he watched David's face well up in a thin blush because he'd complimented him on a couple of things--
He was tempted to reach out and rub his face.
Want to get a rubdown? He should look cuter with a blank face.
Feeling not quite right, Nada blinked softly and literally reached up to rub David's face.
David raised his eyes with a decidedly confused look, "What are you doing?"
Nada said in a flat tone, "Your face is so red."
David also reached out and went to touch his face, however Nada didn't withdraw his hand, so his hand covered the back of Nada's hand.
Nada blinked and didn't withdraw his hand, and David's attention shifted as he touched the back of Nada's hand, and as he grabbed his hand, he said with some surprise, "Your hand's gotten so soft, when it was so rough before."
Nada: "..."
It's not necessary to mention roughness all the time.
Nada asked, "Good touch?"
David gulped and said, "It's so touchy-feely, so soft, and slippery."
The corners of Nada's lips curved up in an arc, and his mood lightened as the warmth of David's palms traveled all the way down to his hands unreservedly, and the parts of his skin that were pressed against each other seemed to elicit a wave of wariness.
He enjoyed the moment of skin-to-skin contact with David.
David's next words interrupted the mood, however, only to hear him say, "Your hands were hard before, jerking me off as if you were mowing the lawn, so they should be a lot better now, right?"
Nada: "..."
Nada cocked her head at him, David's brain was all a few tricks, true to his name.
David was oblivious and said with great emotion, "I'm big but delicate and I break the skin really easily, you don't have that trouble, I envy you."
Nada: "?"
Is this him being connotatively grown small ...?
... That's not necessary.
*
The admission marks were not as abrasive as the marks, and they came out without making Nada wait long.
Before that, Nada received another call from Harvard's admissions office, and even a teacher from Peking University said outright that he had gotten on a plane to a-city to come over and deliver his notice.
Nada is a little flattered, but which school she goes to is ultimately up to David.
David was working so hard because he wanted to go to the same school as him, and there was no way he would abandon him at a time like this.
Nada was so nervous in the moment that her heart popped out of her throat, but managed to keep her composure on her face.
It's times like this that Nada feels impressed with herself.
David's tutor, Jack, came over and waited with him for the admission scores to come out.
The three people sat at the computer in unison, even outside the door were gathered Li butler and aunt maid, the whole villa was waiting for this moment.
After a moment, the house erupted with David's surprised scream, "CHOSEN CHILD!!!"
He screamed and was so excited that he wrapped his arms around Nada and kissed her heavily.
Nada's face, which was still radiating joy, froze in an instant, and where David had just kissed, was the corner of his mouth, almost, almost on his lips.
He reached out with his fingers and gently touched the area David kissed, his expression softening, yet in the next second he was expressionless again.
After David kissed him, he hugged and kissed Jack again.
Still oblivious, David was flushed with excitement, "I knew it, I'm definitely the Chosen One! I wasn't even worried that I wouldn't get in!"
His eyes lit up at Nada and he said, "Stars! You saw that, didn't you? I passed the exam! Pressing the line is a test too!"
Nada said expressionlessly, "Well, congratulations."
David's happy expression tightened slightly for a few moments, "What, why aren't you happy?"
Nada smiled and said, "I'm overjoyed."
Jack was pleased with the result as well, he stood up and said politely, "Since you've passed the exam, there's no need for me, good luck with your future."
David happily transferred Jack's paycheck, "Jack worked hard! Jack let's work together again sometime!"
Jack glanced at the salary and was slightly surprised that David had given him an extra hundred thousand, but he didn't excuse himself and told him with a smile, "OK, just contact me when the time comes."
After Jack left, David stomped his feet in excitement, "I'm calling my dad!"
After reporting the happy news to Adolf, David finally calmed down a little, and he looked over at Nada and said, "My dad told me to send you a three hundred thousand dollar payoff, can you take it?"
Nada dropped her eyes and said, "I don't need to."
David scratched his head and asked in a small voice, "Aren't you happy?"
Nada said in a softer tone, "Of course I'm happy, probably more than you are."
David goaded, "Really?"
Nada said, "Of course it's true."
David: "..."
Nada said, "Do you want to thank me?"
David nodded carefully, "Yes, especially."
Nada smiled up at him slightly, "Kiss me then."
David's eyes widened in shock and he stammered a little, "Kiss, kiss you?"
Nada nodded.
David's eyes twinkled and he said shyly, "Are you serious? Let me make it clear to you, I'm not that kind of a casual guy, my first kiss was for my wife."
Despite what he said, the others couldn't help but move closer, staring at Nada's lips and licking them with an air of eagerness.
Nada smiled slightly, "As long as you don't kiss on the mouth, you won't lose your first kiss."
With that, he held out his hand, palm up, and said to David, "Kiss."
David: "..."
