Su Muqing was taken away by two old maids.
My mother snorted, "I want to see whether it's a boy or a girl!"
I panicked. If my mother found out that Su Muqing was a boy, it would be the end for him!
I gritted my teeth and grabbed my mother's hand.
She was taken aback. "Son, what are you doing?"
I clenched my jaw. "Mother, please."
My mother was furious. "Do you like men?"
I was speechless.
She shouted, "Today I must find out if he is a boy or a girl! If he is a boy, you must break up with him immediately!"
I gritted my teeth and rushed to the edge of the pond.
Everyone gasped, "Young Master Lin, be careful!"
My mother screamed, "Son, what are you doing!"
I took a deep breath. "Mother, if you don't let Su Muqing go, I will jump in!"
My mother was shocked. "Are you crazy?"
I shook my head. "I'm not crazy. Let Su Muqing go, and I will come down."
"Otherwise, I will jump!"
My mother panicked. "Don't—don't jump!"
"I promise you, I will let Su Muqing go."
"Come down quickly!"
I insisted, "I don't believe you."
"Unless you bring Su Muqing over," my mother said helplessly.
"Alright, I promise you," she replied.
"Come down quickly."
I walked down from the edge of the pond. My mother sighed in relief and had someone bring Su Muqing over.
Upon seeing Su Muqing, my mother shot her a glare. "Today, you're lucky!"
"My son likes you, so I won't hold it against you."
"But let me warn you, if you dare to do anything to hurt my son, the Lin family will not spare you!"
Su Muqing lowered her head and remained silent.
My mother took my hand. "Son, come with me."
I was led to the study. My father and Mr. Liu were also there.
My mother recounted what had just happened to Mr. Liu and my father.
My father looked shocked. "What? Su Muqing is a boy?"
Mr. Liu sighed. "I've heard about this too."
"I'm worried about it as well," he added.
My father frowned. "Liu, how could you allow a boy to wear girls' clothes to the academy?"
Mr. Liu sighed again. "It's a bit complicated."
My father frowned deeper. "How is it complicated?"
Mr. Liu sighed once more. "It's hard to explain."
"In any case, we must help Su Muqing keep this secret."
My father frowned, "On what grounds?"
Mr. Liu leaned in and whispered a few words into my father's ear. My father's eyes widened as he looked at Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu nodded, "Absolutely true."
After a moment of silence, my father nodded, "Alright then."
"Since that's the case, we should help keep the secret too."
My mother looked confused, "What are you all talking about?"
My father and Mr. Liu replied in unison, "Nothing."
My mother: "..."
My father patted my shoulder, "Son, you should step outside for a bit."
"I need to have a word with your husband."
I nodded, "Okay."
I left the study and returned to the classroom.
The classroom had returned to its usual calmness.
Su Muqing and I were called to the Side Hall of the academy.
My parents were already waiting for us.
However, their attitude had done a complete turnaround.
From anger and suspicion just moments ago, they now showed understanding and sympathy.
Su Muqing spoke graciously, "Uncle and Auntie, it was my fault; I shouldn't have kept this from you."
My mother took her hand, "Child, you've been wronged."
Su Muqing: "???"
My mother sighed, "You really did a good job of hiding it."
