Chapter 0008 - Heart Like Ashes
Lin Ran ...... My good brother, don't come unharmed!"
When that familiar figure came into view, Lin Hao suddenly tensed his muscles, and the whole person was like a lion waiting for an opportunity to move, ready to strike a fatal blow to his prey at any time!
In the past five years, Lin Hao doesn't know how many times when he looked in the mirror, he mistakenly thought that the opposite side was the hateful guy in front of him, and then smashed himself in the mirror with one punch.
But today Lin Hao knew that that bastard was really standing in front of him, and all this was not an illusion!
Just as Lin Hao was clenching his fists murderously, Lin Ran, who was standing at the door, tilted his head, and a disdainful sneer suddenly popped out of his mouth.
"I haven't seen you for many years, and you have such a heavy murderous aura when you first meet, big brother, you really can't hold your breath like five years ago!"
Lin Hao's narrowed eyes suddenly flashed with a cold glow, and Lin Ran smiled even more at the corner of his mouth when he saw this.
"I just don't know, aren't you as wasteful as you were five years ago, and you only know how to drink when you have something? It seems that five years ago, you missed out on the woman you loved the most because of drinking, and it was also because of drinking that my little niece was born with phenylketonuria, right?"
Looking at the provocative face of the bastard in front of him, Lin Hao couldn't help but grit his teeth, and after Zhou Tian ran his qi machine, he gathered all the eight veins of the Qi Sutra into his right fist.
He was completely sure that this punch would definitely smash that bastard's head like a watermelon!
However, just as Lin Hao was about to rush over directly, an old but deep voice sounded behind Lin Ran again.
"Second young master, don't forget what the head of the family asked us to do!"
When that voice sounded, Lin Ran, who was still smiling at the corner of his mouth a moment ago, frowned next, only to see that he seemed to snort coldly with resentment, and then turned his head and stopped talking.
An old man dressed in a black tunic and stepping on mille-feuille shoes, with his hands behind his back, slowly walked out from behind Lin Ran with his body bent.
The old man stood beside Lin Ran, looking at Lin Hao, who he hadn't seen for many years, with a slight smile on his slightly vicissitudes of life on his face.
"Young Master, long time no see. ”
Lin Hao looked at it, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Steward Liu, are you good?"
"Fortunately, thanks to the care of the Lin family, the old man's old bones are quite tough now. ”
The old man in front of him was the old housekeeper who had been serving the Lin family since he remembered Lin Hao and Lin Ran.
Lin Hao only knew that his name was Liu Rende, and he had the impression that this old man had used Bajiquan, and that he also had good attainments in spearmanship, as for the rest, Lin Hao didn't know anything.
However, five years ago, Lin Hao saw that Liu Rende was in a fog, and he was definitely not an old man's opponent.
But standing here today, Lin Hao can see the depth of Liu Rende at a glance.
This old man's attainments in Bajiquan and spearmanship are indeed good, and he deserves to be called a generation of grandmasters, but for Lin Hao, the grandmaster is actually nothing more than that.
If Lin Hao really wants to fight Liu Rende now, he is completely sure that the other party will not be able to hold two moves under his own hands!
However, despite his hatred for the Lin family, and even more so for Lin Ran, Lin Hao has not been carried away by anger, let alone become a completely irrational beast.
So at this moment, after he saw Liu Rende come forward, he still relaxed his breath for the time being, and asked patiently: "Steward Liu, did you just say that the person asked you to come to me?
"Alas......"
Liu Rende sighed heavily at first, and then continued to speak earnestly, "Young Master, master, he is your father after all!"
"Really? huh...... This is a sad truth. Lin Hao sneered, and then quickly restrained his smile and said solemnly: "Say, he asked you to come to me, what is the matter?"
Liu Rende thought helplessly for a moment before he continued, "It's such a young master, in the five years that you have been missing, there has not been a day when the master has not regretted what he did back then. ”
"Now I heard that you have returned, so the Lin family wants to make up for the debt to you back then, and the master means that he wants you to go back and take over all the properties of the Lin family. ”
"Impossible!"
As soon as Liu Rende's words fell, Lin Hao responded directly without hesitation.
After getting this reasonable and expected answer, Liu Rende couldn't help frowning although he had expected it.
He also knew that the matter that the old man gave him to do was definitely a chore.
The treatment that Lin Hao suffered in the Lin family back then, even he, the housekeeper, felt a little unbelievable, and as for Lin Hao's resentment towards that family today, Liu Rende can completely imagine it.
In this way, after Lin Hao in the house and the two people at the door met their eyes for a moment, Liu Rende suddenly glanced at He Dongguang.
Immediately after He Dongguang, he took a group of chief doctors out of the ward, and did not forget to close the door thoughtfully when leaving.
Obviously, as the director of the First People's Hospital of Modu, he knows Liu Rende, and he also knows the identity and weight of the old man in front of him.
When there were only two brothers and an old housekeeper left in the entire ward, and Xiao Xiyan who was lying on the hospital bed in a delirium, Liu Rende took a deep breath.
"Young Master, old man, he ...... His body is not as good as day by day, three years ago, the old man was diagnosed with advanced stomach cancer, these years has been relying on sky-high imported drugs, as well as the care of the professional team to continue his life, but just half a month ago, the old man can only rely on infusion to maintain his vitality, his body has completely lost the function of eating!"
"What's the matter with me? Hasn't he always liked my good brother since he was a child, and has always cultivated Lin Ran as the heir of the family? What am I to him? What am I to the Lin family?"
Lin Hao seemed to be crazy, his forehead was bulging, and he roared with all his might, "Did he think that I was his son when he expelled me from the house five years ago?
Outside the window, a cold wind suddenly swept by, opening the originally closed glass window.
A few leaves that had turned yellow due to the seasonal climate drifted into the ward, just like Lin Hao's mood at the moment, his heart was like ashes......
Liu Rende's brows almost wrinkled into the shape of the word "Chuan", and his heart was extremely entangled.
But after a moment of silence, he sighed and spoke.
"No matter what, young master, you better go back and see the master......"
