"It's Uncle who's telling me now."
Tan Yunlong lit a cigarette, his voice low: "Yes, his mom came back. His grandparents have seen her too."
"What happened to his mom?"
"She's gone mad, now in the mental hospital at Jiuhua Mountain."
"His grandparents are afraid the child can't handle such a big shock all at once, so they plan to keep it from him for now."
"It can't be kept secret for long. The college entrance exam is still far away."
"Respect the old folks' wishes."
"Uncle Tan, I want to meet Zheng Haiyang's mother. Could you help me arrange it?"
"Tell me why?"
"Just curious."
"You could come up with a more appropriate reason, like you and Zheng Haiyang are good friends, and you want to do it out of concern for your friend."
"Zheng Haiyang is close with Brother Binbin. I'm just average with other classmates."
Tan Yunlong exhaled a ring of smoke, helplessly: "A genius's mind really is different from ordinary people's."
"Uncle, are you agreeing?"
