Yancheng, Lin Yao's hometown.

In the large living room, a man in his fifties with a straight and serious face sat on the sofa.

Unlike Ge You, who relaxes when many people get home, or simply lies on the sofa, this man still sits straight even if he is alone at home, without a trace of bending his back, like an old-fashioned old pedant, sitting upright like a clock.

His appearance is handsome, even if he is old, he can still see the super high appearance of his youth, but his expression is too serious, which makes people feel awe at a glance and dare not approach.

The man had just hung up his daughter's phone angrily, his chest was heaving slightly, he thought about it, grabbed the landline next to the sofa, and pulled it out for his ex-wife.

"Hello?"

A pleasant magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone, but the volume was deliberately lowered, as if he was afraid of disturbing his family.

"Hai Yao, why didn't you stop Lin Yao from falling in love?"

The man didn't care about the other party's concerns at all, and asked directly.

"Lin Duanzheng, I only found out that Lin Yao was in love two days ago, and I asked her to tell you, but she didn't want to, and I couldn't help it. ”

There was a rustling of footsteps on the other side, and it sounded like the other party should have walked out of the bedroom and came to a place where it was easier to speak, her voice was much louder, and her tone was full of grievance and helplessness.

"Heh, Hai Yao, my daughter grew up with me since she was a child, and it is impossible for her to tell you such a big thing first and hide it from me. ”

Lin Duanzheng sneered, and continued:

"Did you encourage your daughter to fall in love?

"Lao Lin, what do you mean, why should I introduce a boyfriend to Yaoyao?"

Hai Yao asked with some dissatisfaction.

"Hai Yao, you want your daughter to be like you, so that it won't seem like you did something wrong back then, right?"

Lin Duanzheng's anger came up suddenly, and he directly reprimanded:

"My daughter is by no means a woman like you who is unwilling to be lonely, she is a member of my Lin family, and she must not embarrass the Lin family, Hai Yao, you are not allowed to contact Lin Yao again in the future!"

"Lin Duanzheng!"

Hai Yao on the other end of the phone was also angry, and said loudly:

Do you know why Lin Yao has always been reluctant to go home, because she doesn't want to be your marionette like she did when she was a child!"

"Hai Yao, don't compare my daughter with you, her character is ten times better than yours!"

This is the first contact between Lin Yao's parents in several years, and the two people in their fifties are still arguing in two or three sentences as before, if Lin Yao sees it, he will definitely feel familiar and helpless about this scene.

After the two fought against each other for more than ten minutes, the battle reached a climax.

"Anyway, I don't allow you to teach Lin Yao again!"

Lin Duanzheng slapped the table with a loud voice.

"Do you want to teach your daughter that she will ignore you?"

Hai Yao was not afraid, sneered, and replied in a strange manner.

"You ......" Lin Duanzheng was about to continue to rub his big move, when a crisp voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone:

"Mom, who are you arguing with?"

Hai Yao immediately stopped fighting with Lin Duanzheng, and her voice became gentle and kind:

"Yes, why don't you sleep yet, you still have to go to school tomorrow. ”

"Mom, I just fell asleep and was woken up by you. ”

The girl's voice was sweet and coquettish:

"I want you to sleep with me. ”

"Okay, you go to bed first, Mom will come over later. ”

Hai Yao finally coaxed her daughter away, and then turned her head and continued to say to Lin Duanzheng on the other end of the phone:

"Lao Lin, I don't want to quarrel with you anymore, I have to send the right person to school tomorrow morning, Yaoyao's matter, I advise you not to forcibly interfere, my daughter has grown up. ”

Lin Duanzheng snorted coldly: "I'm different from you, I won't forget my biological daughter if I have a stepdaughter, I will go to Kyoto next week to bring Lin Yao back." ”

"Lao Lin, you ......"

Hai Yao was about to persuade, but Lin Duanzheng had already hung up the phone.

She was silent for a moment, and finally could only sigh helplessly.

"After so many years, this person still hasn't changed......"

She thought about it, found Lin Yao's phone, and was about to call, when her little daughter's voice came from behind her again:

"Mom, you want to go to your sister, don't you want me?"

Hai Yao turned around and saw that her little daughter's youthful face was a little worried and gloomy, she immediately took her stepdaughter's hand distressedly and said softly:

"Yes, yes, you are your mother's daughter, and your mother has been with you all your life, but ......"

She observed the expression of her daughter, who was in the rebellious period of youth, and whispered:

"My sister is also my mother's daughter, and my mother wants my two daughters to be happy. ”

"Hey, did my mother want to call my sister just now, wanted to find my sister, and didn't want me?"

The second-year junior high school girl named "Yes Yes" hugged Hai Yao's arm, her eyes were tearful and pitiful.

"Mom didn't, Mom didn't go anywhere. ”

Hai Yao completely relented and hugged her little daughter tightly.

"Really, Mom didn't lie to me?"

Yes, his round eyes were wide open, and there were tears on his face.

"Mom promises, I will never leave you, let's go, let's go to sleep. ”

"Well, good!"

The little girl burst into tears and laughed, and fell into the arms of her stepmother, and the mother and daughter walked to the bedroom together.

Under the slightly dim corridor light, the corners of the girl's mouth hooked up a sly arc in Hai Yao's arms, and a sneer appeared on her face that the plan had succeeded.

"I'm sorry, my sister who has never met, this is my mother, you can't snatch it in your life. ”

......

At the same time, at Lin Duanzheng's home, after he hung up his ex-wife's phone, he immediately called one of his students in Kyoto.

"Hello, teacher. ”

A respectful voice came from the other side, although Lin Duanzheng was a mess in marriage and parent-child relationship, he was indeed an expert in academics and was very respected by students.

"He Mian, you help me book a ticket to Kyoto next week, and I'll give you the money when I get to Kyoto." ”

Lin Duanzheng said to his students that he was a very old-fashioned person who didn't even want to use WeChat, let alone book tickets online.

"Teacher, you're coming to Kyoto?!I'm going to entertain you well, what time of week are you going to arrive?"

The man named He Mian was quite surprised and hurriedly asked.

"Thursday, sorry for your trouble, thank you. ”

Lin Duanzheng thought about it and said to He Mian.

"Teacher, don't say that, I'll book a ticket right away!"

"Hmm. ”

After ending the call with the students, the night was already dark, and Lin Duanzheng's face was slightly tired, but he still sat up straight, and his posture did not change in the slightest.

He looked up at the ceiling, and after a moment of silence, he said to himself in a resolute voice:

"I must bring this unscrupulous girl back this time. ”
