In the third year that Lin Muchen lived in Chaoyang City, Elder Luo Yiling brought the letter of appointment of the head of the headquarters to Chaoyang City.

"Teacher, why are you here?" Lin Muchen poured a cup of tea for Luo Yiling with a smile, who said it wasn't, he was still holding a baby in his arms. (Don't ask how they got together, do you think I'm going to tell you?) Syllable... I... ）

Luo Yiling laughed and said, "The old man thought that the last incident hit you too hard, and you would fall and sink in this Chaoyang City." Then he blew his beard and glared again: "I married my daughter-in-law and didn't report it to the old man." Now the dolls are all there. You said that the old man came empty-handed, how can he be embarrassed?"

"Hehe!" Lin Muchen scratched the back of his head and smirked.

Seeing Lin Muchen showing such a smile, Luo Yiling couldn't help but sigh: "You are even happier than before!"

"Yes! A lot of things have been seen through and let go. Lin Muchen teased Xiao Lin Yao in his arms with his fingers: "With them by my side, I am satisfied." ”

"Is it the old man's apprentice grandson or the apprentice's granddaughter?" Luo Yiling said and reached out to hug it, but Lin Muchen dodged it and said with a smile: "There is something to hold in your arms, why should it be a man? This is the little girl Lin Yao!"

Luo Yiling glanced at Lin Muchen and said, "The old man came here this time, first, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I miss it very much. Second, it came with the dictation of the head of the General Headquarters. ”

Hearing this, Lin Muchen's smile froze on his face, and then said: "Please ask the teacher to go back and tell the minister, just say that Mu Chen has long since lost the courage of the past, and I am afraid that he will live up to the minister's wishes." ”

"I knew you kid would say that. Luo Yiling said: "Minister's dictation: Lin Muchen's achievements are outstanding, and it is a pity that the changes of the year have caused my mercenary alliance to lose a heavenly pride. However, Mu Chen's talent is not a unique martial art. Now the head of the headquarters has discussed with the elders to restore Lin Muchen as the head of the bloody mercenary group and grant him permission to guard Chaoyang City!"

"The heroes don't mention the courage of the year, besides, there are talents in the country, how can I, Lin Muchen, be able to occupy the position of the city lord?

"Chen'er! Although this Chaoyang City is small, its geographical location is so important, apart from you, the old man and the minister really can't find a suitable candidate. Don't excuse yourself. ”

"But..."

Lin Muchen wanted to say something, but Luo Yiling instantly made a straight face: "What's the matter? The wings are stiff, aren't they? Even the old man can't beg you?"

Don't say it, this set is really good for Lin Muchen, Lin Muchen hesitated for a while, and then let out a sigh: "Okay!"

"Mu Chen, who is this?" Chu Lan had just returned from shopping for groceries.

Lin Muchen stepped forward and gently took her hand, "Let me introduce you, this is my teacher!" and said to Luo Yiling: "This is an insider, Chu Lan!"

"Hello teacher!" Chu Lan nodded slightly, and then said, "I'll fry a few side dishes, and you can continue to talk." ”

Chu Lan pinched Lin Yao's little face and went in to cook.

Home-cooked food is better than all the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the world, and you never get tired of eating it.

After continuing to chatter for most of the day, Luo Yiling said goodbye and left.

"Won't the teacher stay for a few days?" Lin Muchen said.

Luo Yiling looked at Lin Muchen, then at Chu Lan, and quipped, "How can it." Old man, how dare I disturb you little two. ”

Lin Muchen rolled his eyes at this.

"I won't tease you!

"Teacher, walk slowly!"

Luo Yiling submerged into a magic array.

"Lan'er, I have something I want to discuss with you. Lin Muchen hesitated for a while, and decided that it was better to say it.

Chu Lan smiled and said, "I heard what you and the teacher said. Do what you want!"

Lin Muchen said: "You... You're not against it?"

Chu Lan leaned on Lin Muchen's body, and her slender fingers teased Lin Yao in Lin Muchen's arms (in other words, this Lin Muchen really never leaves with the baby, and it is estimated that Chu Lan has not been as long as he has held.) Syllable... I... "When I first saw you, I saw many stories in your eyes, but more of them were sad, and I thought that there must be a lot of unspeakable pain in your heart. He looked up at Lin Muchen again: "Do you know, I felt very uncomfortable at that time, and I wanted to try to resolve the pain in your heart." It's the feeling of wanting to want to do it. Then he smiled and said: "My man is the lord of a city, and I have a lot of face when it is passed out." ”

Lin Muchen's mouth opened slightly, he didn't say anything for a long time, and then he hugged Chu Lan deeply into his arms.

............

In the next few years, under the leadership of Lin Muchen, Chaoyang City flourished and reached a prosperous scene.

But Rao is like this, Lin Muchen can't take care of career and family at the same time.

The prosperity of Chaoyang City has attracted more and more people to move in, and correspondingly, the affairs that Lin Muchen has to deal with are also increasing day by day, no, from the beginning to go home once a day, to three days, then to a week, and finally to once or twice a year.

Today is the last time Lin Muchen will see Lin Yao's mother and daughter...

"City Lord! Madame took the young lady away! Ma Wu hurriedly walked in.

"Hometown?" Lin Muchen, who was dealing with official business, chuckled in his heart, and looked up at Ma Wu, isn't Chu Lan's hometown Chaoyang City?

From this moment he knew that he had lost the woman he loved the most.

"Where are they now?" Lin Muchen's voice trembled.

Ma Wu said, "I'm rushing to the station." ”

"Help me put the rest of the meeting out of the way. I'm going to find them!" Lin Muchen lost his mind and walked out. Ma Wu's voice came from behind him: "Do you want to help you prepare the vehicle?"

"No need! I'll just look for it myself!" Lin Muchen walked in the direction of the station.

............

The station is bustling and noisy.

Lin Muchen searched all around, but never found Chu Lan's mother and daughter.

"Lan'er!Yao'er!" Lin Muchen shouted in the station, with tears in the corners of his eyes. This was supposed to be the first time he shed tears.

"Lan'er!

All kinds of people in the station stopped and frowned at Lin Muchen, and said in their hearts: Is this person crazy?

"You will be scolded by others like this!" A familiar voice came from behind him, and Lin Muchen's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Dad!" The immature voice shattered the last line of defense in Lin Muchen's heart.

"Lan'er!

Lin Muchen hurriedly turned around and hugged Lin Yao.

"Dad, you're not shaving. I was in a bit of pain. Lin Yao said with a pout.

Lin Muchen ignored Xiao Lin Yao's dissatisfaction, rubbed her little face again, and looked at Chu Lan at the same time, her lips trembled slightly: "Don't leave me!"

Chu Lan's eyes turned red instantly, and she tried hard not to cry out: "I'm already tired! Every time I make a meal full of joy and wait for you to come back, you do things perfunctory again and again." I know, it's not your fault, it's my own fault. It's that I'm so selfish, I want you to be good to me wholeheartedly, and I want you to be by my side all the time. ”

"Lan'er, listen to me!"

Chu Lan shook his head: "You are a big hero! Everyone in Chaoyang City needs you, in your heart, they will always be heavier than us." ”

"No, it's not like that..."

"Perhaps, you and I will need some time to calm down. That's it!" Chu Lan reached out to hug Lin Yao, but Lin Muchen refused.

"Dad, don't cry, Mom and I will be back soon!" Lin Yao stretched out her little hand and kept wiping the tears from the corners of Lin Muchen's eyes.

Ding Ding Ding!

The mobile phone in Lin Muchen's pocket rang.

"Heh!" Chu Lan smiled bitterly. "They need you!"

"You are a qualified city lord, but you are not a qualified husband, a qualified father!" Chu Lan picked up Lin Yao and walked towards a train that was heading somewhere.

"Dad, Mom and I will be back soon!" Lin Yao waved her little hand.

"Wait a minute!" Lin Muchen hurriedly chased after him, and then took out a Hetian jade pendant carved with the appearance of a bodhisattva, put it on Lin Yao's neck, and said softly: "I originally wanted to wait for you on your birthday." It seems that I can't wait. This jade pendant is like your father has always been by your side. You're going to listen to your mom in the future!"

Thundered!

The train is moving.

Through the car window, it can be seen that Chu Lan turned her face lightly, as if she wanted to look back at Lin Muchen, Lin Muchen raised her right hand with the last bit of joy, but it stopped abruptly, she still didn't look back after all.

With an extremely heavy heart, Lin Muchen stumbled out of the station.

It is worth noting that after Chu Lan's mother and daughter left, they never contacted Lin Muchen again.

Of course, Lin Muchen was crazy to look for it, and when he finally found it, Chu Lan only left him this sentence: You can't give us the life we want, so please don't disturb our peaceful life now. This will be the last time I beg you.

Out of love for Chu Lan, Lin Muchen agreed to her request and did not bother again.

Maybe it's because this is Chu Lan's request, or maybe it's because Lin Muchen has always done what he says (except for Li Xuan's incident. He really didn't disturb the lives of Chu Lan's mother and daughter anymore.

Later, Chu Lan and Lin Yao moved to Yongning County, and Lin Muchen completely lost their news.

Later, Chu Lan's illness and death and Lin Yao's affairs were all told to Lin Muchen by Leng Qiu.
