When Father Du was in college, he lived in a four-person room and had a very good relationship with his roommates. Two of his roommates were a couple. Father Du was very surprised when he found out, but he had some knowledge of this kind of thing at that time and knew that this kind of thing was not a disease, so he acquiesced to their relationship and occasionally helped them hide it. After all, people's attitude towards hom**exuality at that time was not as tolerant as it was now.

When Father Du was about to graduate from college, the relationship between the roommates was known by another roommate. He had different ideas from Father Du. After knowing this, he quietly collected evidence and reported them directly to the principal. Father Du had a big fight with him after knowing it, and then threw his things out.

In that era, dating had to be done secretly, let alone this kind of gay relationship. The principal valued talent and called them over for a long talk. He told them that he would not tell anyone about this matter and would let them graduate normally in a few months. The only requirement was that they should not meet again before graduation.

Both of them were very grateful for the principal's decision. One of them moved out of the dormitory that day. The two of them usually stayed far away from each other in class and strictly followed the principal's requirements.

However, the news still spread. Overnight, everyone's attitude towards them changed. Everyone pointed fingers at them behind their backs. Father Du was also affected because he lived in the same dormitory with them. Many people said that Father Du could live with them for so long, maybe Father Du was also gay.

If it was just talking behind their backs, it would be fine, but gradually, everyone started to take action against them. The student who moved out was said to be sick by his roommate, and all his things were thrown out. He was also driven out of the dormitory. No one was willing to live with him.

The person who reported it even called a few people to beat up the student who moved out, saying that he wanted to vent his anger.

Father Du watched fearfully from the sidelines. Due to the rumors, he rarely spoke to the roommates and offered no help.

A few days later, news spread at the school that the person who had reported the incident had been severely beaten, suffering a broken arm. The attackers were the hom**exual couple, who then fled.

A few days later, a group of police came to the school to investigate. Father Du learned from the police that the two of them had died and committed suicide by jumping into the river. The police came to find Father Du because they found a letter left for Father Du among his belongings.

"My mother said that when she met my father, he was particularly resistant to this kind of thing. She thought he might have been affected by that incident, which is why he's so harsh on Qianze now."

Du Jiamo finished the story in one breath, feeling a tinge of sadness. Love itself was neither right nor wrong. Father Du's roommates had simply liked each other and had harmed no one, yet their story had ended in tragedy.

"So that's it." Fang Yi muttered in a low voice after listening. If Father Du really experienced this kind of thing when he was young, his attitude towards Du Qianze now was not incomprehensible.

"I think my dad must have been stimulated by this incident, so he was so fierce to Qianze. If you start from these places, the success rate should be higher. As for my mom, you don't have to worry about it. My mom has long stopped being angry with Qianze. It's just that it's difficult to contact Qianze because of my dad."

"Well, I'll talk to Xiao Du later." Fang Yi nodded. Since Father Du himself didn't hate this kind of thing, it was because of external stimulation that he became like this, then Du Qianze's chance of successfully conquering Father Du should be much greater.

"Okay, I've said everything I should say. I'm going back. You go in and watch Qianze." Du Jiamo put out the cigarette and left directly. Fang Yi returned to the ward and found that Du Qianze had woken up.

"Thank you for your help." Seeing Fang Yi, Du Qianze thanked him in a hoarse voice.

Why should we even worry about whether it's troublesome or not? Anyway, after you lost consciousness, I went to your house, and your brother came with me. He was the one who showed me the way and helped me find the hospital," Fang Yi briefly explained to Du Qianze what had happened after he passed out.

"By the way, the video..." Du Qianze was not surprised that Du Jiamo would send him here. What he was thinking about was Father Du's attitude.

"I haven't seen it yet." Fang Yi took out his mobile phone, fiddled with it for a while, and said to Du Qianze regretfully that there was no network here and the camera could not be connected.

"Although you can't see it, when I sent you out, your father kept shouting to throw the three of them out, but he didn't do it. The three of them should still be staying in your house. Don't worry about it." Fang Yi was a little proud. Fortunately, he was smart to choose kitten and puppy. Father Du had to consider their survival before driving them out. If it was a big dog, Father Du might have driven them out of the house directly.

"What's wrong with me?" Du Qianze only remembered to ask about his own health at this time. He could guess that it was probably because of the cold water he took last night.

"You have a severe fever, but the doctor said that you have a good physical foundation. After the drip and some medicine, you can go home." Fang Yi replied.

"That's not bad." After hearing Fang Yi's words, Du Qianze was relieved. Nothing was prepared at home, and the three little animals must not be well-fed or housed. If he didn't go back in time to pick up the three little animals, Mother Du would definitely be very busy.

"You should rest too. Don't overthink things. I'll buy you lunch—what do you want to eat?" Fang Yi noticed that even while sick, Du Qianze was still frowning and couldn't help but feel that he was utterly exhausted with life.

"Excuse me?" A woman in her thirties walked into the ward, and when she saw Du Qianze, she walked over directly, smiled at Du Qianze and Fang Yi and said, "Hello, I'm Li Yaqing."

"Sister-in-law." Hearing Li Yaqing say this, Du Qianze struggled to get up and greeted Li Yaqing politely.
