Chapter 658: The Conventional Illusion, My Grandfather Called Us
When Ling Xingmo arrived at the Ling family's old mansion, everyone didn't dare to make a sound.
Especially Li Qin.
However, Ling Xingmo has never embarrassed Li Qin, he has no time to deal with her at all, not to mention that Ling Yunwan is back today, Ling Xingmo will save some face for her in front of Ling Yunwan.
In addition, there is also an unwritten agreement between Li Qin and Ling Cang, whenever Ling Yunwan comes back, they will pretend to be harmonious, even if they don't pretend to be harmonious, at least on the day Ling Yunwan goes home, Ling Cang will not embarrass Li Qin, and Li Qin will also dress up as the housewife.
It can be said that this should be regarded as a common rule in the Ling family's old house, and no one will break it.
Ling Yunwan usually spends most of her time at school, and now Ling Cang rarely asks her to come back, and the time to come back is short, so she will not easily find the illusion between Ling Cang and Li Qin.
Now she is about to enter her senior year, studying jewelry design, and she has not yet started school, and she is interning at Shen Jiaying's company.
The old house is still a bit far from the city, so she usually lives in a rented house.
Today, the company was fine, so she came back to see Ling Cang and Li Qin.
Before Ling Xingmo came, Li Qin was already planning to sleep, but as soon as he heard that he was coming, he hurriedly dressed and went to the hall to greet him.
It's just that Ling Xingmo didn't even give Li Qin a look out of the corner of his eye.
And Ling Yunwan, who hadn't slept yet, knew that after Ling Xingmo came back, she also came out to greet her, the second brother she hadn't seen for a long time, but after she called "Second Brother", Ling Xingmo just nodded, didn't pay much attention, and walked straight towards Ling Cang's room.
Ling Xingmo's attitude towards Ling Yunwan has always been tepid.
Ling Yunwan also basically accepted Ling Xingmo's attitude, but she glanced at Ling Xingmo's back and still wanted to say something, but before she could speak, Li Qin asked her to hurry back to her room to sleep.
Ling Yunwan had no choice but to reluctantly go back to the room.
It's not that she can't notice that the division of this family has changed now, and the warmth that used to exist is now gone.
Now, the eldest brother is gone, the third brother is in prison, the father is seriously ill, and the mother is silent, but she has no power to change, even though she has grown a lot more than before.
Now she will no longer be so easily confused by superficial things, and even she can think that the warmth she thought before was only a part of the illusion, she can also see that Ling Xingmo does not treat her very well, and she has more or less sensed that there may be discord between her parents.
But she couldn't say all this.
Because if you say it, you won't be able to maintain even the appearance.
......
Ling Cang had already fallen asleep in a groggy state, but when he heard the maid announce that Ling Xingmo was coming, he woke up in an instant.
He was really afraid of Ling Xingmo now, and before he saw Ling Xingmo, his hands had already begun to tremble, and they were still shaking.
He still remembered that on December 31 last year, Ling Xingmo didn't know what was crazy, so he came to the Ling family's old house with a pile of papers, and said to him, "Don't you like to sign contracts and write your name? ”
Obviously, Ling Xingmo's tone was very steady when he said this, but it was inexplicably creepy.
That day, he was sick and weak, only wearing thin clothes, and wrote his name ten thousand times in the study, which was the result of Zhao Bo's intercession.
That day, in addition to going to the radio station to record Lin Xinmo's birthday song, Ling Xingmo spent the rest of his time supervising Ling Cang's handwriting and writing calligraphy.
He stipulated that Ling Cang should write standing up, the words should be written in a standardized manner, and he was not allowed to drink water, eat, or sleep until he finished writing, and he also accompanied him not to drink water, eat, or sleep, so he kept supervising him.
Ling Cang finally finished this matter before he was about to faint, and since then, his physical condition has deteriorated again, and it took a long time to recuperate and recuperate.
Now as long as Ling Cang saw Ling Xingmo, his right hand would reflexively tremble, and he was afraid, especially when Ling Xingmo came to see him, his expression was not particularly good, Ling Cang was even more afraid in his heart.
Ling Xingmo just sat on the sofa next to Ling Cang's bed without saying a word, giving people a sense of oppression.
Ling Cang suppressed himself to prevent himself from coughing, or coughing quietly, but after all, the more he suppressed, the more uncomfortable he became, but he coughed louder, and finally coughed so red that he was a little out of breath.
Just when Ling Cang was already coughing so much that his bronchial tubes were about to explode, Ling Xingmo asked, "Do you know the Jian family of Country M?"
Jane Zhong is Jane's father's name.
Ling Cang coughed so hard that he couldn't breathe, but looking at Ling Xingmo's scrutinizing gaze, he was still busy coughing and replied, "Ahem...... Listen...... I've heard of it, ahem...... I don't know much about it. ”
"Do you know that my grandfather died three years ago and his condition suddenly worsened?"
"Ahem...... Three years ago?" Ling Cang thought about that time for a moment before replying, "It seems to be ...... Ahem...... Know a little. Facing Ling Xingmo's eyes, he didn't dare to lie.
"Do you know who he is seriously ill about?"
Hearing this, Ling Cang's eyes flickered, "Ahem, cough...... No...... I don't know much, I don't ...... cough cough cough ...... It's not about his own physical condition...... Ahem...... Is it related?"
Hearing this, Ling Xingmo walked up to Ling Cang with an arrow step, pinched the tube of Ling Cang's infusion and asked, "Do you really not know?"
Ling Cang was so frightened that he coughed even more violently when he saw Ling Xingmo like this, Ling Xingmo wanted to ...... What does it mean to cut off his medicine?
Although he is not in good health now, he wants to live for a few more years.
The more people want to die, the more afraid they are of death, not to mention that Ling Cang is the kind of person who is very afraid of death.
Ling Cang hurriedly said, "Ahem...... I...... I know a little. ”
Finally finished the last few words smoothly, and Ling Cang coughed violently again.
Ling Xingmo ignored Ling Cang's cough, just sat back in place and asked, "Tell me what you know." ”
Hearing this, Ling Cang's eyes began to wander unconsciously, and after coughing a few times to delay time, he said, "I only know that it seems to be ...... at that time cough cough, it seems that there is a doctor who is very powerful, responsible for treating Old Man Ji, but Old Man Ji suddenly became sicker, and after the doctor rescued Old Man Ji, he left. ”
"Since you know that the person who healed my grandfather is very powerful, and you also know Jian Chong, why don't you know that Jian Zhong is my grandfather's doctor?"
Ling Xingmo's words showed the logic of not believing the words Ling Cang had just said.
But Ling Cang really didn't lie about what he said, and hurriedly explained: "I almost didn't have contact with your grandfather back then, I only knew a little about him, I knew that he was seriously ill at that time, or he called me to ask if there was your whereabouts, he wanted to see you before he died, I didn't know about this matter carefully at all, so I only knew that he had a very powerful doctor by his side, but I didn't know who that person was." The reason why I know Jian Zhong is only because Jian Zhong is the head of the Jian family and has a bit of fame in Country M. ”
Ling Cang's explanation was quite reasonable, but Ling Xingmo only focused on one sentence in this pile of words, "Why didn't you ever tell me that my grandfather called you?"
