What suddenly ran in was a boy who seemed to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, shouting in his mouth, while raising his hands and hitting Qiao Ann hard without mercy.

And Qiao'an's mother did not stop his behavior, but continued to glared at Qiao'an and said, "Even your brother knows that it must be wrong not to listen to us. You are so old now, but you even have such a simple truth. I don't understand, Little An, you really disappointed me too much."

Qiao An lowered his head, endured the pain caused by his younger brother, and did not speak. He was already used to the attitude of his family. What could be justified?

Qiao An's father directly released the cruel words and threatened: "You can hear me clearly. Either you will do what I say, or you will get out of this house and never want to come back again!"

After Qiao An was silent for a while, he finally raised his hand to block his brother Qiao Kang's slap, and then put one hand on the wrist of the other hand, gritted his teeth and said: "Father can take care of what I asked me to do before. Say it again?"

Qiao'an's father thought he was finally softened, and his attitude finally slowed down slightly: "What I asked you to do is very simple. This is also the request of the Brandt family. They have provided us with a complete set of monitoring equipment. Just install them in the bedroom of He Yishu’s apartment. Besides, aren’t you a friend of He Yishu now? Then try to compose it and see how he made those spell cards. If you have the chance, you too You can look it up in his room, maybe there will be relevant information."

Qiao An's eyes flashed slightly: "I see."

Qiao'an's father said again: "Don't worry, as long as you do this, the Brandt family will not treat us badly."

"But what if He Yishu finds it out?" Qiao An asked his father, clenching his fist worriedly, "Now that He Yishu doesn't have many friends in the college, if he really finds out the monitoring system installed in his bedroom. , He will definitely suspect me."

"Don't worry, the people of the Brandt family have already said that the monitoring system they gave us is equivalent to the monitoring system used by the military. It will never be easily discovered by ordinary people. You don't have to worry about this at all," Qiao An His father waved his hand, disapproving, "And even if he really found out, what about it? With the Brandt family as our backer, do you still need to be afraid of a guy kicked out of the house?"

Qiao An thought for a moment, and then asked: "Then... Has the Brandt family made it clear what benefits it will give us? I'm risking such a big risk to do this now, if I don't get a reward that satisfies me , Isn't it a disadvantage?"

Qiao'an's father waved his hand and was unwilling to answer this question: "You don't need to think about this kind of thing. You only need to do what I tell you."

Qiao An wanted to ask something more, but was stared at by his father: "You have been at home long enough, go back to the college and do what you should do."

After that, Qiao'an's father gave Qiao'an the monitoring system provided by the Brandt family, and then urged him to go back to the college.

Before leaving, Qiao An’s father finally ordered him: “If there is any problem with the installation of the monitoring system, you must contact me in time. In addition, you must maintain the relationship between you and He Yishu recently. Remember, What you are doing now concerns the future of you and your brother, and absolutely no mistakes are allowed."

Qiao An glanced at him since he had just beaten him, and never looked at himself again. At this moment, the younger brother who was sitting leisurely on the sofa eating snacks nodded silently.

On the way back to the academy, Qiao'an's expression was always very tight. He was thinking about a problem that he would never think about before, and he had to make a decision that required all his courage to make.

When he returned to the apartment, He Yishu was sitting in the living room chatting with Adrian. As a friend of He Yishu, Qiao An was very clear about the relationship between the two, so it was not surprising that Adrian appeared.

Seeing Qiao An, He Yishu smiled and greeted him: "You are finally back. Have the family affairs been settled?"

Qiao An looked at He Yi's book, and then at Adrian: "Not yet."

Seeing that Qiao An's expression was not quite right, He Yishu put away the smile on his face and asked, "Did something happen? Need help?"

"Well, I do have something I want to tell you," Qiao An sat down opposite He Yishu and took out the set of monitoring equipment his father gave him from his backpack. "Actually, I was called home by my parents this time, and You are concerned."

He Yishu raised his eyebrows, took the black metal box that Qiao An handed over, and looked at it for unknown reasons.

Adrian, who was sitting next to him, took the object smoothly, opened it cautiously, and then his expression sank: "Where did I get this?"

"What is this?" The things in the black metal box actually look very simple. There are only a few metal needles placed in the gap. He Yishu can't see what it is.

Adrian glanced at Qiao An and said in a deep voice: "This is a high-end micro-monitoring device commonly used in military surveillance systems, or rather, this level of micro-monitoring equipment is generally only eligible for use in military missions. ."

Hearing these words, He Yishu had already guessed in his heart, but he still pretended to lightly turn his head to look at Qiao An and said, "It seems to be a very high-end thing, Qiao An, do you want to give this to me as a gift? ?"

Qiao An clenched his fist, plucked up the courage to start telling what he had experienced at home before: "This is my father gave me, he said this thing was given to him by the Brandt family, the purpose is to use these monitoring The device will monitor you..."

After listening to Qiao An’s heavy narration, the expression on He Yishu’s face did not change. It seemed that what Qiao An said had nothing to do with him. On the contrary, Qiao An looked extremely guilty and blamed almost nothing. Dare to look into the eyes of He Yishu: "Sorry, I didn't expect my parents would let me do this kind of thing, but I would never do it. Don't worry, and I recorded the video at that time. I will now send you."

With that, Qiao An directly lowered his head and sent the video that he had previously recorded to He Yishu.

He Yishu did not stop Qiao An’s actions, nor did he change his attitude: "Qiao An, even if you didn’t tell me about it, I wouldn’t doubt you, because I know you are a very kind person, absolutely not. Do something that hurts others, and it’s not your fault, so you don’t have to apologize to me for your parents’ behavior. On the contrary, I should thank you and be willing to tell me these things, otherwise I cannot know you. What the parents and the Brandt family did."

"But I still feel very sorry." Qiao An looked at He Yishu apologetically, but he was really relieved. Although he already understood He Yishu's character, he still inevitably worried that He Yishu would be unwilling to continue with him because of this matter. Be friends.

He Yishu did not continue to discuss his own affairs, but looked at Qiao An worriedly: "Although I am personally very happy that you can make such a decision, I have to say that doing so will have a very huge impact on you."

"I know." From the moment he made his choice, Qiao An knew what he was about to face. He knew that his father's words were not a joke. If he chose to refuse, he might really lose his hometown. qualifications.

"So... have you made your plans?" He Yishu asked.

Qiao'an's fist clenched once again, but his attitude was firm: "In fact, the reason why I chose to turn on the monitoring system of the optical brain at that time is because I have made a choice. I want to know whether they will How to do it."

He Yishu understood Qiao An's words, so he said in a strange way: "Do you want to be like me?"

"I... I still don't have enough courage to take the initiative to leave them, but I think they should make a choice for me." Even after his thoughts changed, Qiao An knew that he was not as brave and decisive as He Yishu.

So he needs to ask his father and mother to help her make this choice. In other words, Qiao An hopes that he will be kicked out of the house, not that he offers to get rid of his relatives.

He Yishu thinks this is actually quite good.

For one thing, Qiao An's personality is indeed different from his. If he really took the initiative to leave his family, maybe he would feel guilty and embarrassed about it later, and even bring himself some unnecessary troubles.

Second, in many cases, when conflicts occur, most people subconsciously choose to stand on the side of the weak, regardless of the actual situation.

Therefore, if Qiao An took the initiative to leave his family, it might be a weakness for him in the future, and vice versa, even if his family comes to pester him in the future, it will be difficult for him to stand on a higher moral point.

Of course, the most important thing is that it is estimated that with the virtues of Qiao'an's family, after knowing that Qiao'an did not act according to their requirements, Qiao'an might really be kicked out of the house directly.

"I know that you may feel uncomfortable now, but I personally think that getting rid of those people is not a bad thing for you. On the contrary, it is likely to free you from a lot of restrictions and depression," He Yishu patted Qiao An's Shoulder, relieved him, "And you are my best friend, if you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me."

These words made Qiao An feel depressed. Qiao An’s thoughts are more delicate than ordinary people. He could clearly feel that although He Yishu did treat him as a friend, it was also very good to him, but he did not. Did not fully trust him, but now, he says that he is his best friend.

From friends to best friends, this is a huge difference for He Yishu and Qiao An.

Of course, this matter is also very different for Adrian, for example, now he feels inevitably jealous.
