"I wouldn't dare think so!" Shi Fengming said self-deprecatingly: "I would be grateful to even be able to bring Jingyi back home!"
As he spoke, he sighed and nodded: "Alright! Brother, you go back first. Please keep this a secret from our parents for the time being. I'll inform them once I've settled things here."
Shi Fengju knew this matter was hardly reliable and even somewhat ridiculous, but seeing his pitiful condition, he reluctantly agreed, only saying: "I don't know how long this can be kept secret, you must act quickly! Once things here are settled, even Second Aunt may not easily agree!"
"My mother is still my mother, don't worry, brother!" Shi Fengming seemed completely unconcerned.
Shi Fengju took a glance at him and thought it made sense. After all, Shi Fengming could even do something as outrageous as eloping with a prostitute and leaving home; what else couldn't he do? He guessed even Second Aunt had been scared into submission by now.
