Zhang Jianian touched Lu Ren soothingly, as he was frightened, and said softly, “…It’s okay, don’t be afraid, maybe I can also see it in the future, such as when I have presbyopia.”

He was suspicious. Obviously no one in the family had a history of myopia. How could Lu Ren have such bad eyes at such a young age?

Zhang Jianian fell into contemplation and planned to take Lu Ren to check his eyesight. Chu Chu gloated at the door, seeing Lu Ren slumped after looking for Zhang Jianian for verification, as his little face was covered by grief and mist.

Seeing her standing at the door, Zhang Jianian suggested, “Let’s take Lu Ren to check his eyesight next time.”

Seeing that he was so nervous, Chu Chu said, “You are listening to his nonsense. What the h-ll, maybe tomorrow he will ask you why you are the Domineering President’s Wife?”

Zhang Jianian: “?” What is all this mess?

Chu Chu didn’t expect that her ability to see the halo of others would actually be passed on to Lu Ren, but it didn’t seem to have a big impact at present. Lu Ren was small and didn’t seem to know the name of the halo, nor the meaning of each halo.

In the end, Zhang Jianian led Lu Ren to check his eyesight, and the result of the check was correct with Chu Chu’s prediction. His eyesight was very good, but he insisted that he could see strange bright circles. In the end, Zhang Jianian could only attribute it to children’s innocence, perhaps they had a dream world in their hearts that adults couldn’t understand.

After that incident, little Lu Ren realized that he seemed to be different and had abilities that ordinary people did not have. He simply changed his words silently, stopped mentioning the thing about seeing the halo, and planned to be a child who hid his merits and fame and was ready to save the world at any time.

Lu Ren: Maybe I am the Son of Heaven, this is my superpower.

In Lu Ren’s heart, the favorability of the family was in the following order: Dad>Grandpa Chu=Grandma Zhang>Poodle>Grandma Lin

As for his mother Chu Chu, she could break that order at any time and jump horizontally at the front row or at the end at any time. Sometimes she could make Lu Ren happy and surpass Zhang Jianian in one fell swoop.

Lu Ren even had doubts and seriously asked Zhang Jianian for advice, “Dad, how can I make my mother stop talking nonsense?”

Facing Tong Yanwuji (childlike innocent words), Zhang Jianian didn’t know if he should be laughing or crying. He reluctantly confessed, “I have been studying this topic for a long time. If you have made progress, can you tell me? I would also like to know.”

Lu Ren nodded as if he didn’t understand. It turned out that there were things in the world that his dad couldn’t do. In his opinion, his father’s ability in all aspects was extremely excellent, almost omnipotent. By the same token, if he helped Zhang Jianian overcome problems, wouldn’t he be able to surpass his own father and become the best person in the world?

Lu Ren’s fighting spirit instantly ignited in his heart. As the chosen man (heaven’s son), he immediately tried to challenge Chu Chu.

Lu Ren approached Chu Chu and said solemnly, “Mom, can I ask you not to talk nonsense in the future?”

Chu Chu glanced at him and said in a poignant manner, “If you see people talking about people, if you see ghosts talking about ghosts, of course I will talk nonsense to you.”

Lu Ren was taken aback, he scratched his head, trying to digest his mother’s logic. He finally wanted to understand the truth, and then clenched his small fists and pointed out angrily, “I am a human being!”

Chu Chu turned over lazily, “No, you’re a little devil.”

Lu Ren: “I’m not.”

Chu Chu: “How do you prove that you are not a little devil? What is the definition of a human? How can you convince others that you are more related to humans than to ghosts? Is there any reasonable data to support it?”

Facing the series of questions, the young Lu Ren fell into bewildered thinking and stood there in confusion.

Lu Ren: Who am I? Where am I? Am I human? How could I prove that I am human?

At the beginning of the battle, Lu Ren fell into a deeper confusion. In the end, he put Socrates’ famous saying “Know yourself” on the desk, and decided to fight his mother after reading poetry and books. Zhang Jianian was quite surprised to find that his son fell in love with philosophy. One must know that Lu Ren did not go to kindergarten. It seems that his interests were a bit biased?

Lu Ren thought about it for a while, knowing himself and the enemy was the only way to be safe in a hundred battles. He also inquired about the enemy’s situation with Zhang Jianian, “Dad, what philosophy does Mom like?”

Zhang Jianian hesitated and said, “Marxist philosophy…” After all, it was a communists party member’s design, so this should be correct.

Lu Ren nodded. He made up his mind to study and understand his mother’s thinking logic, and then completely defeat her!

His eagerness to learn on philosophical issues made Chu Yanyin heartbroken. Inside the Chu Mansion, he looked at his grandson holding a big book to read, and finally became angry at Chu Chu, “Did I force you so much when you were young? How can you expect your son to become a dragon (unmatched talent)?”

He pondered for a while, and thought that Chu Chu must have had a problem with being a mother and led his grandson on a strange path. Zhang Jianian was obviously not a philosophical person. Where did that gene come from?

Chu Chu:”?”

Chu Chu: “He insisted on reading it himself.”

Chu Yanyin questioned, “Impossible, he doesn’t even understand Chinese pinyin, how can he read it?!”

Chu Yanyin underestimated a child’s desire to win against his own mother, as Lu Ren did everything he could to defeat Chu Chu. His eagerness to learn prompted him to know more Chinese characters than his peers, and even soon entered bilingual teaching, and began to try to attack the original English works.

If his development continued on that track, Lu Ren may grow into a philosopher. However, when he officially entered the bilingual kindergarten, his enthusiasm for philosophy was instantly dissipated. The reason was very simple. After Lu Ren became literate, he gradually understood the meaning of the halo and suffered a greater blow.

His mother’s halo was “Domineering President”, his dad’s halo was “Domineering President’s Wife”, Grandpa’s halo was “God of Wealth”, and Grandma Lin’s halo was “Vicious Female Match”. Grandma Zhang Yafang did not have a halo, which should have comforted Lu Ren, but when he discovered his halo, he was even annoyed at why he had a halo!

Lu Ren looked at the halo of “Passerby A” in the mirror, and the sadness in his heart could not be suppressed. It turned out that he was the worst in the whole family!

Since then, Lu Ren has no interest in proving that he was human anymore, because he had already proved himself by sadness.

Lu Ren: Of course passers-by are humans, and there are no ghosts in the world.
