The atmosphere at dinner wasn’t too cordial.

Fei Zheng was a cold and reticent person, and Nan’s parents looked very formal in front of him. Except for a few pleasantries when they first met, there was nothing to say until the end of the meal. If it wasn’t for Fei Cheng’s efforts to liven up the atmosphere, the meal would have been unpalatable. After dinner, Nan HuaiLin went home with his parents, while Fei Cheng had something to say to his brother.

The two brothers sat in the car, the night outside the window, the lights shining brightly.

“Brother,” Fei Cheng said. “I’m going back to the United States to live for a while.”

Fei Zheng didn’t show any surprise. He gave a light hmm and asked, “When are you leaving?”

Fei Cheng said, “Tentatively scheduled for the seventh. Nan Nan;s new drama starts on the tenth. We have to be there a few days earlier.”

Fei Zheng said, “Got it.”

Fei Cheng was silent, then said, “We plan to stay at the house in Atlantic City first. Nan Nan is filming in Princeton, very close to Atlantic City. The second brood is due in October, and then we’ll go to Undersea City. I’ll incubate the eggs and Nan Nan will take care of the babies.”

Fei Zheng frowned. “Nan HuaiLin is going to live with you in Underwater City?”

Fei Cheng nodded. “Mn, if Nan Nan is really fertile, we will have to spend half a year in Undersea City and half a year on land, and live amphibiously.”

Fei Zheng said, “Right now Undersea City is so cold that it is no different from the grave. I’m afraid that he can’t adapt to life there.”

“If he can’t adapt, I’ll let him go back to Atlantic City. I have experience now, and I won’t have a problem hatching eggs alone.” Fei Cheng paused. “Brother, the undersea city will definitely slowly liven up, and so will our dragon clan.”

Fei Zheng imperceptibly hooked the corner of his mouth.

Fei Cheng turned sideways to face him. “Brother, I have a question to ask you.”

Fei Zheng said, “What?”

Fei Cheng looked at the side of his brother’s face and said, “You and Ruan Xin…What is the situation now?”

Fei Zheng was silent for a while before he said indifferently, “There’s nothing going on.”

Fei Cheng believed him.

But Fei Cheng also knew his brother’s character. As long as he did not want to talk, to ask was useless.

Fei Cheng was silent for a short while, then said, “Brother, I’m very happy now, and I hope you’ll be happy as well. I’m sure Xu Maki would hope so too.”

Xu Maki was the name of the one Fei Zheng used to love, who died after a serious illness even after his life expectancy was extended to over two hundred years. After all these years, this was the first time Fei Cheng mentioned this name in front of his brother.

Fei Zheng’s face had little expression. He was quiet for a few seconds, then inclined his head to look at Fei Cheng and calmly said, “Not everyone can have a happy ending. Lucky people are always a minority, most are unfortunate.”

“How do you know you can’t have it, if you don’t fight for it?” Fei Cheng said somewhat eagerly. “Brother, you’ve been too negative all these years.”

Fei Zheng frowned, “Are you lecturing me?”

“I’m not, I’m not,” Fei Cheng immediately became a bit abashed. He was silent for a moment, then said, “I just hope you can find your old self. I miss that warm, crying and laughing brother.”
