Starting Afresh

In the end, Fu Yue spent the entire afternoon studying the items, runes, and spells before running down to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Since Fu Yue had already checked the fridge and made the menu beforehand he wasted no time preparing the ingredients for cooking.

Aunt Xing kindly stayed behind to assist and also recommended the taste that his family preferred which helped Fu Yue greatly.

In the meantime, An Yan and Fu Zheng who came to watch a while ago and then got chased away by Fu Yue were both currently waiting in the living room.

An Yan still felt unbelievable at his younger son's drastic change. He worriedly spoke to his husband," Dear, don't you think Ah Yue become the total opposite of himself?"

Fu Zheng also noticed it but he was not as worried as his partner. He calmly appeased him," Having amnesia is like starting all over so let's consider this as Ah Yue starting afresh."

Fu Zheng proceeded to take his husband's hands into his as he added," Haven't our little boy wished to be like this? Perhaps, he is finally able to come out of his shell this time."

Feeling that his words indeed sounded credible, An Yan finally stopped knitting his brows as he gave a light sigh," Well, as long as he is happy."

Once Fu Zheng heard this he gave a gentle smile which was a rarely seen image of a stoic face A like him.

However, before Fu Zheng could say some more words, Fu Yue, who was unaware of his parents' pink world loudly asked from inside the kitchen," Father! Do you know when is Ge coming back?"

Without much thought, Fu Zheng unconsciously shouted back," Your dad will give him a call, wait a sec!"

Only after Fu Zheng finished did he realize what he just did to which An Yan giggled," How long has it been since you shout across the room like this?"

Faced with his husband's teasing, Fu Zheng gave a light cough to hide his embarrassment before raising his chin toward the phone on the table," Give Ah Zhen a call."

Helplessly shaking his head, An Yan gave his older son a call. The other side quickly picked up and after a few words, the call ended.

" He said that he is on the way."

After An Yan reported in his usual soft-spoken tone, he smilingly signaled his husband to relay the news to their younger son who was still inside the kitchen.

Knowing that his partner was having fun teasing him Fu Zheng briefly went silent before resigning his fate to do as he was told.

As a result, the dignified CEO Fu raised his voice once again toward the kitchen," He is on the way!"

Immediately afterward, Fu Yue's voice was heard," Ok!"

True to his words, Fu Zhen arrived shortly after Fu Yue finished his last dish. After both of them finished taking the shower, they all started to enjoy their dinner.

Fu Yue cooked according to the original's recipes so even though the taste was slightly different it could be said to be made by the same person.

For this reason, his family enjoyed the food without any suspicions toward his identity which Fu Yue couldn't help but secretly sigh in relief.

This dinner signified a reunion and also Fu Yue's meaning to start afresh with this new family in this strange world so he felt a bit emotional while looking at them.

Hopefully, they could adapt to his changes and would not feel awkward with the new him.

Despite feeling melancholy, Fu Yue did not want to spoil the mood so throughout the dinner the smile never left his face.

After dinner was over, Fu Yue was rejected by Aunt Xing to help her wash the dishes so he went back to sit with his family.

Fu Yue stayed downstairs for another hour or so before going back into his room intending to continue his study about the champions' abilities.

Admittedly, Fu Yue couldn't possibly study these 150 champs overnight no matter how much of a game genius he was.

The most efficient way was to look up those that were currently in the meta or had a high pick rate in this season, especially in the mid-lane.

Once Fu Yue picked up the game it was hard to put it back down so by the time he was roughly done it was already quite late into the night.

In the past, around this time, Fu Yue could still queue to play a few more games but presently, he needed to wake up early in the morning so he hurriedly went to sleep.

Knowing that his future schedule required him to hole up in his room most of the time thus it might have sounded bad saying this but Fu Yue needed to let his parents go back to the main house.

Three months were incredibly short so Fu Yue couldn't spend any more time outside of the game.

However, Fu Yue was worried about hurting his family's feelings if he were to be the one to personally speak of this topic so he was thinking of having an accomplice.

As for the one that was going to be his partner in crime, Fu Yue already had a perfect person in his mind.

With this thought in mind, the very next day after bidding their parents good night, Fu Yue immediately dragged Fu Zhen upstairs to speak on the balcony.

Fu Zhen looked speechlessly at his little brother after hearing what he had just said,'' You? A pro gamer?''

Fu Yue did expect this reaction beforehand so he calmly nodded his head in return,'' That's right, I will become a game streamer soon.''

'' Why all of a sudden? I remember you are really bad at gaming though?''

To his reply, Fu Yue carelessly waved his hand,'' Aii, that was me in the past. Can't you see that I am trying to change myself?''

Seeing that he was being serious, Fu Zhen did not want to pour cold water on him thus he reluctantly asked,'' What game?''

Without any hesitation, Fu Yue replied,'' TOBH.''

Hearing this answer Fu Zhen was given a scare.

At first, he thought that with his little brother's ability, it would be okay to be a game anchor of a Gacha game but he did not expect it to be a real-life strategy game like this one!

Wanting to reconfirm that he did not mishear, Fu Zhen verified,'' It is not Tales of Broken Heroes, is it?''

Fu Yue had already prepared himself to explain what TOBH was so he was surprised to hear that his big brother knew this game which saved him a lot of saliva to introduce it.

With a wide smile, Fu Yue excitedly spoke,'' I am surprised that you know the game! Are you also playing it?''

Hearing that his little brother was indeed going to play that game, Fu Zhen immediately reprimanded,'' It is fine if you just want to play casually but going to be a pro player in TOBH, not everyone can do it! Stop while you can.''

Fu Yue was not discouraged by his big brother's disagreement since he understood his point of view.

At this moment, he was pretty sure that to his Ge, he looked like a moron who was speaking nonsense.

However, Fu Yue still needed his help so he could not back down as he had already thought of a countermeasure.

'' How about a bet with me then?''

'' What kind of bet?'' Apprehensively asked Fu Zhen.

Fu Yue grinned as he lifted three fingers,'' Give me three months! If by that time, no team invited me to join their team, I will give up.''

Hearing his proposal, Fu Zhen collectively went silent. He couldn't see any advantages for his little brother in proposing it.

Three months was impossible unless he went through the backdoor.

Knowing what Fu Zhen was thinking, Fu Yue added,'' I won't use the underhand method and I will make an appearance as an official player fair and square!''

Listening to his little brother's reassurance, Fu Zhen gave him a big eye roll,'' As a scaredy cat as you are, there is no way you could think of doing that. What I want to hear is that you won't come crying to me after losing the bet.''

Not expecting things to go so smoothly, Fu Yue happily exclaimed,'' You agree?! Thank you, Ge! You are the best!''

Fu Yue hurriedly flattered him in case he changed his mind to which Fu Zhen gave a confident smile in return,'' It's good that you know. Okay, tomorrow, I will deal with fathers for you. Now, go do whatever you need to do.''

Fu Yue excitedly smiled and turned around ready to go back to his room when all of a sudden, his big brother's voice was heard from behind causing him to turn around.

Fu Zhen, who forgot to ask the important question quickly said,'' Right, what rank are you?''

Fu Zhen thought that even though his little brother lost his memory, he might have seen the game on his PC and saw that his account ranked quite high which led him to have this ambition.

Not knowing his Ge's thoughts, Fu Yue honestly answered with a bright smile,'' I just start today and haven't played in a rank yet.''

Fu Zhen,''...''

Bro, are you freaking serious?
