Inside the car, the person stepped out and walked to the window.

Mu Lianshen rolled down the window, his hand still holding the cigarette. He exhaled a puff of smoke and cast a sideways glance at the man.

Song Ruyuan lowered his eyes, concealing all his emotions deep within.

"What are you doing following me on New Year's Day?" Mu Lianshen's voice was indifferent. "Aren't you going to visit anyone?"

Song Ruyuan stepped closer, his voice quiet, "I've already finished my visits."

"Have something to say?"

Song Ruyuan was silent for a moment before speaking calmly, "Not much. We didn't meet last time. Maybe we could catch up some other time?"

"Not really," Mu Lianshen replied with a light laugh. "In a few days, I'll be accompanying my daughter, so I probably won't have much time."

Another silence ensued.

After a while, Song Ruyuan spoke with a hint of a smile in his voice, "I heard your daughter looks a lot like you. I've prepared a gift; you could take it with you..."

Mu Lianshen's gaze suddenly changed. He stared intensely at Song Ruyuan.

He flicked the cigarette butt on the ground, opened the car door, and got out.

Without addressing the gift, he gripped Song Ruyuan's shoulder and changed the subject, "Song Ruyuan, do you still have that obsession with cleanliness?"

Song Ruyuan was not surprised by the topic shift. He smiled lightly and said, "Not as severe as before."

"Oh?" Mu Lianshen lifted his foot and stepped on Song Ruyuan's shiny polished shoes, leaving a smudged mark of dirt.

He then wiped the dust from the car onto Song Ruyuan's white shirt.

Song Ruyuan furrowed his brows, his eyes showing deep resignation, but he didn't move away.

Mu Lianshen's eyes showed a malicious smile. "The first time I met you, you were like this. I found you very displeasing back then."

But after learning about his family and the strictness they imposed on him, Mu Lianshen couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy for the man.

As they got to know each other better, Mu Lianshen found Song Ruyuan somewhat acceptable.

Young people's friendships are always inexplicable, and they eventually became friends.

He understood some of his friend's peculiar habits.

Song Ruyuan pressed his lips together and after a moment said, "And now?"

"Now?"

Now he couldn't understand why someone so averse to dirt would willingly get himself into a mess.

Mu Lianshen didn't comment further on Song Ruyuan's character.

"Let's have a fight," Mu Lianshen said flatly. "Let's do what I wanted to do when we first met."

He had wanted to fight with him since their first meeting but had never succeeded.

After speaking, he released his grip and grabbed Song Ruyuan by the collar, throwing him aside.

Song Ruyuan, with a stable stance, stood up straight.

Mu Lianshen's eyes narrowed as he quickly attacked. Seeing that Song Ruyuan only dodged without fighting back, he didn't stop but only intensified his strikes.
