An Yan was at home and was unaware of what was happening at the Zhao family’s home. He had just received a message from the store manager and was carefully studying the matters he needed to pay attention to when he was working.

An Yan was taking this temporary job very seriously. In addition to the generous pay, the information also says there might be a reward if he did a good enough job.

Furthermore, they would each be given a set of clothes to wear for the job, which would be theirs at the end of the day.

For the current An Yan, even a set of clothes was enough to make him happy.

However, corresponding to the generous pay, there were many requirements for this job. For example, he must not leave the workplace during the course of his work, let alone communicate too much with other people.

If he accidentally meets a guest at the banquet, he must not behave disrespectfully in front of the guests and must do exactly what is required.

Although the requirements were many, they were not much compared to the remuneration.

For the next half day, An Yan was carefully studying what to do for this job. In the process, An Luo came over to pick a fight.

With An Mu's absence, An Luo openly showed his malice: "An Yan, are you already thinking about finding a job because you know you won’t pass the exam? It would be difficult for a loser like you, who can’t do anything, to find the most ordinary job, right? "

An Yan just faintly glanced at An Luo. Without his mother around, there was no need for him to act angry like the original owner: "Mum has already told me that she will definitely let me continue my studies, so I’m not worried about that at all. But with the family’s current situation, it’s really quite difficult. Why don’t you drop out and go find a job to earn more money for the family? "

Although An Luo had been hiding well in front of his aunt, the recent events had made him angry and filled him with a sense of crisis. He now couldn’t hold back after An Yan provoked him in such a way: "Don’t talk nonsense! Aunt promised to let me finish college. Compared to you, my grades are much better. If we must have a person drop out of school, that person must be you! "

You really think so?" An Yan chuckled lightly. "Even if mother truly said so, it is no longer relevant. Now that mother is trying to drive you out, do you think she will pay for you to continue your studies?"

"What did you say?" An Luo’s eyes widened.

"I said," An Yan looked at An Luo, his eyes full of provocation, "that after she found out you had bullied me for so long and almost got me killed, she wanted to kick you out. Do you understand now? "

"That’s impossible! Auntie wouldn’t do that!" An Luo’s eyes were red. His hands were clenched into fists, and his face looked fierce.

"I can’t help it if you don’t want to believe me, but you’ll know if I’m telling the truth in a few days," An Yan’s tone was calm, but the words he said further enraged An Luo.  "Actually, you better pack up your things as soon as possible. It will save you time so you don’t have to leave them behind in a mess. You’ll have to look in the rubbish if you leave them. "

Although An Mu’s attitude towards An Luo had always been good, and An Luo had used every trick to distance her from An Yan, he had always been very insecure in his heart.

He always felt that even if his aunt treated him well and An Yan was angry with her, he was still just a nephew, while An Yan was her biological son.

That’s why he has tried time and again to distance mother and son and has gone to great lengths to please her. It was because he feared she would one day choose her son over him without hesitation.

And now, these fears have come true.

Because of the anxiety in his heart and An Mu’s change in attitude towards him, An Luo had to believe that what An Yan said was most likely the truth.

But even so, he still didn’t want to show weakness. He took a deep breath, barely pulling himself back to his senses: "I know you didn’t do well in your exams, so you’re trying to provoke me on purpose, but don’t you waste your breath! Aunt promised that she would treat me like her own son and would never leave me behind. Besides, I’m better than you in every way; you can’t match my academic performance; and you’re the one who usually talks back and argues with aunt. How could she possibly choose you? "

The more An Luo said this, the more reassured An Yan felt.

He knew that the other party had already believed his words and was feeling uneasy in his heart.  That was why he was desperately comparing his merits and the possibility of not being driven away.

So An Yan didn’t say anything more than a faint "oh" and then ignored An Luo and went back to his studies.

This made An Luo even more uneasy: "What are you doing? Now that I have revealed the truth, you have nothing to say? "

An Yan sighed and looked up at An Luo, "Who is telling the truth? Just wait a few more days and we will know? Why are you in such a hurry? Besides, if you really think that mom won’t kick you out, why are you so excited? "

An Luo choked for a moment and became even more irritated: "I just don’t want to listen to your nonsense!"

"Then I won’t say anything more, okay?" An Yan shrugged his shoulders, looking good-natured.

An Luo wanted to theorise with An Yan some more to give himself some security, but felt that this would reveal his mind even more. He feared it would be impossible to achieve his goal at all, so he had to hold his breath and turn around to go back to his room.

"Wait." An Yan suddenly called out to him at this moment.

An Luo looked back at An Yan, but did not say anything.

An Yan smiled faintly and narrowed his eyes. "Actually, you should have realised this a long time ago, right? It’s impossible for the two of us to co-exist in this family. As long as I’m around, I will never let you have a good time. "

An Luo’s heart instantly surged with strong malice, but he did not answer back. He instead quickened his pace and went back to his room.

An Yan, who was sitting on the sofa, gently tapped his chin. He didn’t know if his provocation would work this time or if it would make An Luo take action.

An Yan dared to deliberately provoke An Luo like this time and again, even leading the other party to make a move, because he was absolutely sure that he could protect himself.

Although he couldn’t turn back into a hamster now, nor even make hamster ears on his head, his spiritual power was still there. So, he naturally had no problem protecting himself.

He was only afraid that An Luo, who was too thoughtful and wouldn’t dare make a move again even if he was angered to the point of death. This would make it a bit difficult for him to collect strong evidence.

When evening came, An Mu came back a little earlier than usual and brought back an egg.

"Yan Yan has worked hard for his exams. You need to eat an egg to make up for it." An Mu didn’t dare ask how An Yan had done in the exams. For one thing, the exams were already completed and there was no way to change whether he did well or not.

Secondly, she also knew her son’s level. She could almost guess the result even if she didn’t ask.

As expected, while mother and son were eating eggs together, An Mu tentatively mentioned, "Mum has a colleague whose child is studying at a private college. I heard her say it’s very good. "

"I’ve also looked into it and I’ve identified a few choice colleges, so mum will help me with my references." An Yan swallowed the egg in his mouth and took over the conversation.

His criteria for choosing an institution of higher education were particularly singular. That is, whether the tuition fees were high or not. So the few colleges he had selected were basically some of the ones with the lowest tuition fees among private colleges.

 An Mu was relieved that her son had not avoided the topic: "Okay, we’ll have a good look at them later after drinking the nutrient."

After eating the egg and drinking the nutrient, the mother and son started to discuss the matter in earnest. At this point, they had not considered the possibility of An Yan getting into the Central Star First College at all, mainly because, in their opinion, it was really unlikely.

But choosing a college is always a difficult task. They had to consider the level of teaching, the atmosphere, the location, and so on, as well as the cost of tuition. So, although they discussed the matter all night, mother and son had not made a decision.

Of course, the biggest contradiction is that An Yan felt he should choose the one with the lowest tuition fees, but An Mu disagreed. Even if it was a private college, she still preferred one with better teachers.

Because of this issue, the two discussed it for a long time without convincing the other. Naturally, the choices of colleges were so different that it was impossible to achieve a unified result.

Seeing that it was getting late and An Mu had to go to work the next day, the two had to call a truce and decided to continue their discussion another day.

After they separated, An Yan lay in bed still thinking about the issue, and then unconsciously fell asleep.

It was already the next morning by the time he woke up again.

An Yan got up in a daze and was about to go wash up when he saw the light brain on his wrist flashing non-stop. It was flashing a red colour that had never appeared before.

He hastily opened it and found an unread email silently lying in his mailbox. The letter was signed by... Central Star First College!

An Yan instantly sobered up and stared at the contents of the email.
