What Yu Meng regretted all these years was that she had secretly changed Tan Yubai's choice to join her family.

It had not been mentioned for a long time, but now, because of a sentence of regret from the homeroom teacher, it had all surfaced in his mind.

Tan Yubai stopped in his tracks and gently held Yu Meng in his arms.

"But I changed your choice."

"If I don't turn a blind eye, how are you going to fix it for me?"

Yu Meng raised her head. "Then why did you have to go to such a remote university?"

"I'm just not sure. I'm not sure how I feel about you."

"Then why did you turn a blind eye on me and ask me to change my aspiration form?"

"Because what I'm sure of is that I don't want to make you sad." Tan Yubai said in a gentle voice, "Moreover, I don't want to go to a school without you."

Yu Meng was moved.

"Can we go to the porridge shop at the school gate and eat porridge and Soup Dumplings?"

That was the place where Yu Meng bought breakfast for Tan Yubai everyday. Every time she bought it, she would put it in the thermal container that she had prepared and pretend that she had made it herself.

She thought she had pretended well, but the truth was that Tan Yubai had long since seen through her.

In the old alley to the left of the school gate, the old porridge shop had been doing very well all these years.

The boss was an elderly aunt. They had eaten together during the last divorce, and since the last time, the aunt had aged quite a bit.

Yu Meng followed Tan Yubai and approached from the alley only to see that the inside of the shop was in chaos.

A few older guys held baseball bats and had all kinds of green dragon designs on their arms. It was obvious that they were hoodlums who didn't go to school nearby.

Yu Meng and her friends had this kind of person when they were in school. Every day, they would play games in the Internet Cafe. When they ran out of money, they would look around the school for wealthy students and collect a bunch of protection fees.

These people were not afraid of causing trouble, they were extremely ruthless.

All the tables and stools in the shop were lying on the floor, along with the tofu brains that were scattered all over the place and the crushed meat buns …

Several female students were sitting in the corner, trembling as they watched this scene unfold. They wanted to leave, but they didn't dare to move.

The Lady Boss of the porridge shop was alone. Facing those mischievous bullies, her face turned pale.

The leader of the bullies stepped on the corner of the table, looked at the baseball bat in his hand, and said with a devilish smile, "Lady Boss, this fly was found from your tofu brain. Hurry up and compensate us for the mental damages!"

This sentence, Yu Meng understood. These hoodlums were here to swindle money. According to her knowledge, this porridge shop had been near the school for many years and had never had any health problems. How could it be possible to eat flies from bean curd brains?

As Yu Meng was in deep thought, Tan Yubai had already walked over.

He lowered his head and looked at the bowl on the floor.

"Did you throw it?"

The little hoodlum frowned, and sized Tan Yubai up from head to toe. He waved his hand with disdain: "Uncle, go to the side, don't hurt you by mistake, this is a matter for us youngsters."

Uncle...

Yu Meng couldn't help but laugh at the way this name was addressed.

The female boss of the porridge shop also stood out and patted Tan Yubai's shoulders, reminding him in a good mood, "These people always come to cause trouble. Sigh, don't affect you guys, I'll just compensate them."

"You losing money means that you really have flies in your bean curd brain?" Tan Yubai asked.

The Lady Boss quickly shook her head. "Of course not. I've opened a shop here for so long, and the students and teachers of this school have all come to eat. I've never had any hygiene problems, so they're here to cause trouble!"

Tan Yubai nodded, and turned his head, his cold eyes landing on the baseball bat in the delinquent's hand, he then quickly raised his leg and with a flying kick, the baseball bat flew into the air, finally landing on the ground in the distance.

"You!"

The bullies reacted slowly, only then did they turn angry from embarrassment.

"You're courting death!"

With that, a few hoodlums rushed towards Tan Yubai, while Yu Meng spread out the people near her to prevent them from accidentally injuring her.

She was calm and composed, but the wife of the congee shop was very nervous.

"Are you guys together? These hoodlums have been in this mess for a long time, the school couldn't do anything about it. The police came to arrest them a few times, but only released them after being locked up for a few days. Instead, they became even more violent …"

Yu Meng wasn't worried at all.

"Don't worry, they won't appear again in the future."

As he finished speaking, the sounds of fighting in front of him also calmed down.

didn't even need to be serious in dealing with a few hoodlums. Just by playing with them a little, he was able to beat them to the point that they would kneel and beg for forgiveness.

The hooligans who had been brisk in reporting were now all curled up on the ground, their bodies riddled with wounds as they moaned in pain.

Tan Yubai stood indifferently at the side, tidying up the wrinkles on his clothes, and kicked the bowl beside his feet, landing right in front of the hoodlum.

"Eat all the bean curd meat that you flipped over on the ground."

The hoodlum was shocked. As far as the eye could see, the tofu brain was rolling on the ground.

"It's not good to waste food." Tan Yubai growled coldly, "Hurry!"

Everyone was frightened by the beating. With this roar, everyone got up from the ground and shakily picked up the tofu brains on the ground to eat.

The black thing grabbed it and put it in its mouth. It was unbearable to look at.

"Why not? Forget it." The female boss of the porridge shop walked to Tan Yubai's side and helped them out.

"They're still children."

Tan Yubai did not show any mercy.

"Only children need to be taught."

No one could persuade Tan Yubai. He was a person who would never soften his heart or change his decision.

The bean curd on the ground was completely eaten. One by one, the little hooligans stood up and prepared to leave.

But he was stopped by Tan Yubai.

They stopped, their bodies still trembling.

"Don't let me know you're still in trouble."

"Yes..."

They were young and vigorous, and had never been afraid of anyone before. Defeating was not something they had never done before, but Tan Yubai was the only one who could make them be so obedient.

His innate aura, taming a person, had never been out of violence.

Even though... He often used violence as the most direct method.

The little rogue was chased away. Amidst the silence and shock around him, Tan Yubai bent over and picked up the chair and chair that had fallen to the ground.

Everyone slowly regained their senses.

The Lady Boss was even more surprised, she walked to Tan Yubai's side. "Really … "Thank you so much …"

Tan Yubai held onto the last chair and sat facing Yu Meng.

"Boss, Sweetie Meat Soup Dumplings and Lean Eggs Porridge."

"Alright."

The Lady Boss wiped her apron and went to prepare. The two female students who were sitting in the corner just now were walking towards Tan Yubai with hesitation.

"You … Is it Tan Yubai? "

They tried to call Tan Yubai's name, their voices hoarse with shyness and nervousness.

Tan Yubai looked up and nodded politely.

"How do you know my name?"

"I've seen you on the news." The girl looked excited. She blinked and took out a piece of paper from her schoolbag.

"You're even more handsome than the poster …" The girl's hands were trembling as she held the pen. "Can you help me sign this?"

Tan Yubai helped the girl sign her name.

"Why do you guys like him?" Yu Meng could not hold it in any longer, and asked this question. In her impression, all the news reports regarding Tan Yubai were mostly negative, such as searching for Little San, hacking, then suspected commercial fraud, faking death, and so on …

Yu Meng could not bear to continue counting.

How could a girl like Tan Yubai, who had such a public image, like him?

From the start, the two women's gazes never moved away from Tan Yubai, and their eyes did not even shine.

"I think he's up to it again."

"That's right. Not only is he able to take responsibility, but the person in charge is also very low-key!"

Yu Meng couldn't help but interrupt when she saw the two girls talking.

"How do you know who he is?"

"Aiya, there's so much news on the internet, just by pestering her a bit more, I can find out what's going on."

Yu Meng raised an eyebrow. "Such as?"

"For example, all the news was negative, and it sounded so bad, completely ruining his image, facing slander, and all sorts of insults from the netizens. He did not explain anything, nor did he find a public relations lawyer. He probably felt that he was fearless because he was upright and did not fear shadows!"

"Or maybe, Big Brother Tan Yubai has someone who wants to protect you, that's why you chose to take on everything yourself!"

The two girls' narration was very clear. If it weren't for Yu Meng personally experiencing this, she would have almost believed it.

"Alright, since you have the skills, then take care of your family and friends."

Yu Meng couldn't help but remind him, "What kind of story are you all making up for him? He can't possibly live a life like this."

The girl lowered her head.

"Alright, you guys still need to go to school, let's go."

The Lady Boss was carrying porridge and meat buns. When she saw that the two female students were still there, she couldn't help but urge, "If you don't hurry up, you'll be late."

Before they took their leave, the girl seemed unwilling to give up and turned to ask Tan Yubai.

"Are you the kind of person I'm talking about? You …" With some hesitation, she added, "Good people, right?"

Tan Yubai smiled lightly.

"It doesn't matter what sort of person I am. The important thing is how you think of me. The me you see is actually you in your heart."

The honest, hard-working, low-key person was reflecting the image of the girl herself.

The words sounded so good that the girl almost cried.

"Since when did you learn to speak so well?" After the girl had left, Yu Meng could not help but smack her lips and retort, "It makes the hearts of other female classmates quiver."

"Maybe it's because I'm an uncle." Tan Yubai slurped a spoonful of tofu brain and ate it: "So you have more to say."

Yu Meng said, "You're Uncle, then wouldn't I …"

Auntie …

I don't!
