Chapter 536: Chapter 174: The Ke Family’s Past_1

"Why have you come back?" Ke Jun asked, almost instinctively.

His question left the siblings completely clueless.

Not, Dad.

Does our presence in this house make you uncomfortable?

What kind of question is that.

If we don’t come back, where else are we supposed to go...

Begging for food, maybe?

However, before Ke Jin could even begin to reply,

the surprise on the guest’s face on the sofa was evident.

"Ke Jin?"

"Hey, wait... ugh..." Ke Jun hadn’t finished speaking when he saw the guest had already dashed over like an arrow.

Feeling the momentum was irretrievable, Ke Jun sat on the sofa and wiped his face, his expression extremely complex.

At the same time,

the guest had already approached Ke Jin.

After a careful look at Ke Jin, the guest’s eyes lit up even brighter, "Ke Jin... oh no, Designer Ke! It really is you!"

"Uh...? Who are you?" Ke Jin asked, confused, but the other person had already reached out and firmly grasped his hand, shaking it enthusiastically before introducing himself.

"My name is Ma Yang, I was a former student of Mr. Ke."

While speaking, Ma Yang also looked back at Ke Jun, surprise evident in his eyes.

Then, turning back to Ke Jin, he said,

"I never imagined you were Mr. Ke’s child? Hiss... I should have figured it out..."

The surname Ke is quite rare after all.

Both Ke Jun and Ke Jin share the surname Ke.

Plus, the headquarters of the top player is located in Jianglin.

Ke Jun also teaches at Jianglin No.3 Middle School.

It looked like there was a connection.

Ma Yang had suspected as much initially.

But after thinking it through,

Designer Ke is now a prominent figure in the gaming circle of the Huaxia Nation.

He is the kind who meets CEOs of Tengjing or Netcom without any sense of inferiority.

But Mr. Ke...

is quite shabby in comparison.

He’s been teaching for twenty or thirty years, still drives a Volkswagen, and sometimes doesn’t even drive in order to save fuel.

It doesn’t seem likely they are direct family.

Possibly distant relatives, related eight generations ago, but have become strangers in this generation.

For this reason, Ma Yang didn’t give it much more thought afterward.

But unexpectedly,

today, when he came to visit and express his gratitude to his teacher,

he ran into Ke Jin by pure chance!

"Ma Yang?" Ke Jin felt the name sounded familiar.

Hiss!

Isn’t that...

The founder of the Game Fun offline experience hall?

It was a big deal!

This dude... ow, how did this guest happen to appear in my house?

And from his recent introduction,

it seems like, he was a former student of my dad.

"No, I feel a bit confused," said Ke Jin, his head buzzing.

Ke Yu, on the other hand, considered one less layer.

She was unaware that Ke Jin was also thinking about the ’stab in the back’ aspect.

So, in Ke Yu’s eyes, the logic of the situation was very clear.

The founder of Game Fun, at this critical moment of success, arriving with a gift to thank their dad.

What does that indicate?

It suggests that their dad might have had a hand in his rise.

Especially when you look at the somewhat flustered face of their dad, who had started to bury his head in the newspaper on the table.

"Dad, stop reading, you’re holding a gaming weekly. Don’t you hate games the most?" Ke Yu said.

"Ah? Ah! Oh, oh yes..." Ke Jun’s face showed sudden realization, but inside, he wished he could whip out a lash and furiously discipline this girl!

All these years of affection have been wasted on you!

You’re like a leaky cotton-padded jacket!

Always bringing up the least advisable topics.

Can’t you see your dad is already extremely embarrassed?

I’m furious! Ke Yu, oh Ke Yu, when will you be married off!

Meanwhile, Ke Jin also finally came back to his senses.

With his thoughts in order, he wasn’t as naive and innocent as Ke Yu.

While the guest was still here, it wasn’t the time to air everything out and stage a father-son standoff.

If there were questions, they’d have to wait until after the guest had left.

"Ke Yu, go help mom with the cooking," he ordered Ke Yu away, and then sat down on the sofa beside Ma Yang.

If Ma Yang showed up here, and with his status as the founder of Game Fun, there’s no way Dad didn’t know what Ke Jin was up to.

Ke Jin didn’t bother pretending anymore.

First, he refilled tea for his dad and Ma Yang.

While pouring tea for Ma Yang, Ma Yang was a bit apprehensive and kept thanking him profusely.

After that, Ke Jin casually inquired about how the offline experience hall was doing recently, as if nobody else was there.

Even though Ke Jin’s tone was very friendly, just as at ease as if at home,

Ma Yang still felt an immense pressure, even more so than when facing Teacher Ke Jun, to the point that sweat formed on his forehead.

It was an aura Ma Yang couldn’t describe.

The man was clearly close enough.

But every time Ma Yang thought about sitting across from someone who could stand on an equal footing with giants like Tengjing and Netcom, his nerves caused him to swallow hard.

He might make a million a month, considered a semi-successful person who seems infinitely glorious to the outside world,

but Ma Yang knew very well.

His future rested on just a word from the young and handsome man sitting in front of him.

If he said Ma Yang couldn’t do it anymore, then Ma Yang was through.

Fortunately,

Ma Yang breathed a sigh of relief because,

Ke Jin didn’t hold him accountable for leveraging the top player’s reputation to open his store, nor did he make things difficult for him.

Instead, he asked about recent earnings with concern and whether there were any future plans.
