Chapter 1001 Change of Mind
Li Qing stopped the car on the side of the road, took out a few facial tissues, and handed them to Lin Qiuqiu in the back row: "Wipe it, my face is crying." ”
Taking the tissue and rubbing the reddened circles under his eyes, Lin Qiuqiu blinked his beautiful eyes lightly and looked at the deep night outside the car window: "Why don't you open it?"
Looking at the neon lights flickering in the night in the center of Zhonghai City in the distance, Li Qing took a deep breath, slammed the steering wheel, and turned the car around: "Let's go back." ”
Lin Qiuqiu didn't hear any more, but Li Qing felt his shoulders tighten suddenly. He turned his head in astonishment, and saw that the white jade hand was clutching his shirt.
Pursing her mouth tightly, Lin Qiuqiu lowered her head, her delicate body trembling slightly. Xiao Simu in his arms seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly woke up and cried.
"Qiuqiu. Li Qing put his hand on Lin Qiuqiu's soft jade hand, "I think clearly, go back now." Either way, I don't want you to regret it for the rest of your life. ”
"No matter what happens, I will always be there for you. Li Qing's face was grim, but his voice was unusually calm, "You relax, if there are any difficulties, we will face them together." Relax, take a deep breath..."
Lin Qiuqiu took a deep breath very obediently, his tense body gradually relaxed, and then slowly released the jade hand that was holding Li Qing's shirt.
"I'm fine, so... Let's go back. Lin Qiuqiu's teeth trembled lightly and said softly.
Li Qing pulled out his mobile phone and handed it to Lin Qiuqiu in the back row: "You stabilize your emotions, and then help me call Yang Xun." The roof is dark, the road conditions are not good, I have to concentrate on driving. ”
When the words fell, Li Qing started the car again and drove back along the same road...
Li Qing knew very well in his heart that the decision he made in the middle of the road was extremely risky. Some may not only not be able to save Lin Shiyuan, but will even put themselves in it. But at this moment, Li Qing can't take care of so much, as a man, he can't tolerate the decadent feeling of watching his woman cry, but he can't do anything.
The car sped on the road at night, and it only took more than an hour to return to Lin's house again. At this time, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
There were people guarding the gate with guns, and Li Qing was forced to stop the car.
"Why are you here again?" The bodyguard guarding the gate couldn't help but look surprised when he saw Li Qing.
Li Qing glanced out lightly, only to find that Lin Shiyuan's people had been replaced outside, and when he asked, "Where is Uncle Shiyuan?"
"Well, I don't know..."The bodyguard hesitated for a moment, and he couldn't tell if he really didn't know or not, "Uncle only let us stay here and forbade anyone to enter or leave." ”
"Hmm. Li Qing nodded, "I'll go in and find him." ”
The bodyguard glared instantly: "You didn't understand what I said? Uncle has an order to prohibit anyone from entering or leaving." Tsk, are you really a brother?"
Li Qing pursed his lips: "Stare your eyes wide to see clearly, who is the person in the car! This is your little lady of the Lin family, and I am his husband." Do you dare to stop my car? Believe it or not, my father-in-law tore you apart?"
Several bodyguards shrank their necks and looked at each other: "Or... Let's give you a call and ask Uncle?"
"There's no time to wait, I'll go in first, and you can elaborate. Li Qing drove directly inside, waving his hand out of the car window, "Invite a few brothers to drink another day." ”
The body flashed to the side, and I watched Li Qing drive away, a few bodyguards, you look at me, I look at you, staring at you.
"It's not going to happen, is it?"
"Let's make a phone call and inform the uncle..."
He raised his hand and knocked on the door, until there was a sound of "Come in" from inside, and the young man gently pushed the door open and walked into the house. His steps were very light, he didn't make the slightest sound when he walked, he came all the way to Lin Shiyuan's side, and bowed slightly: "Uncle, everyone has arrived." ”
"Has Shiqing also arrived?" Lin Shiyuan asked in a deep voice.
The young man hesitated slightly: "I was about to tell you, I didn't see the second master, nor did I see the little young master and the eldest lady." Steward He just came out to speak, and then went in again, but didn't open the door, saying that he was waiting for the uncle to come. ”
"Hmm. Lin Shiyuan stood in front of the mirror, wiped the hair that was still after the bath, and then tied the belt around his waist unhurriedly.
Staring at himself in a pure white filial piety dress in the mirror, Lin Shiyuan's eyes moved slightly: "Xiaozhan, do you know that filial piety at fifty is not sad but joyful." ”
The young man called Xiao Zhan shook his head suspiciously: "I don't understand. ”
Lin Shiyuan sighed softly, slowly turned around and paced two steps forward in the room: "Fifty filial piety means that the elderly live a long life, so there is a truth that is not sad but happy." If my father follows the order of heaven and man, and is born, old, sick, and dies, I can accept it completely, but..."
There was a slight pause at his feet, and a slight chill swelled up on Lin Shiyuan's cheeks.
Xiao Zhan followed half a step closely, lowered his voice and said, "Uncle, it's been now, you haven't explained to us yet, if you make a move, it's not easy to handle." ”
"You shall not live. The muscles on Lin Shiyuan's cheeks tightened, "If Shiqing does this kind of thing, he is no longer my flesh and blood brother." I'm going to clean the door for my father tonight, and I'd rather kill him by mistake than let one of them go, and you don't need to leave room for it. ”
"Understood. Xiao Zhan nodded heavily.
Lin Shiyuan lifted his eyelids, glanced lightly at the wall clock, and then walked out: "It's time to go." ”
He walked out of the house, Xiao Zhan trotted out from behind, all the way to the car, and opened the car door for him respectfully.
Lin Shiyuan took a deep breath and waved his hand gently: "Let's go." ”
"Uncle, you haven't closed your eyes for two days, let's take a break..."Xiao Zhan glanced up and caught a glimpse of Lin Shiyuan's pale face, and hurriedly stopped at the moment, and nodded obediently, "Yes." ”
Xiao Zhan's full name is Di Zhan, he is twenty-four or five years old, of medium stature, with fair cheeks and quite delicate appearance. Sneakers, loose slacks and a printed graphic shirt make him look more like a college student. Occasionally, he wears a suit and tie, or a hard-wearing dark camouflage uniform like the rest of Lin Shiyuan's bodyguards, but it's rare, unless it happens on some important day, like today.
Dressed in a decent black suit, with a hundred flowers of condolence on his chest, it also made Di Zhan a little more stable than he usually has.
The two of them walked along the quiet street of the Lin family, heading towards the beach, Di Zhan knew the rules very well, and walked on the left rear side one step away from Lin Shiyuan, which did not delay the two of them to speak, but also seemed respectful enough. Several other bodyguards in suits followed respectfully five or six meters behind the two.
"Small exhibition. Lin Shiyuan suddenly spoke, "How many years have you been with me?"
Di Zhan replied without the slightest hesitation: "I have been following my uncle for eight years and four months." ”
"I remember it so clearly..."
"Hmm. Di Zhan nodded, "The day I met my uncle was also the death day of my parents." ”
"I remember. Lin Shiyuan looked into the distance, his eyes drifting, "Xiaohai is too unsuccessful, so he died early." I actually don't blame Li Qing too much, even if he doesn't die in the hands of Li Qing, sooner or later he will die in the hands of others, and it is more likely that he will die in my hands. ”
Di Zhan was silent for a while: "Brother Xiaohai was also very good to me back then, in fact, at that time... I should have helped him..."
"You were too young and simple-hearted. Now that you think about it, you should understand that he is trying his best to win you over, just to take advantage of you. Lin Shiyuan sighed softly, "I, Lin Shiyuan, gave birth to such a son, I'm afraid it will be the biggest failure in this life." ”
Di Zhan said: "If you hadn't stopped me a few years ago, I'm afraid I would really have helped Brother Xiaohai." ”
"Then you're dead. Lin Shiyuan glanced lightly at the young man beside him, "Like him, he can't even leave a corpse." The pain of losing a child, if you don't feel distressed, how can it be..."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Di Zhan said cautiously: "Uncle, why did you talk about this tonight? Brother Xiaohai has already left after all, so don't think about it." ”
"It's not that I insist on talking about him, but I have something else to say. Lin Shiyuan's tone suddenly changed slightly, and the thick melancholy between the words was not concealed at all, "Xiao Zhan, I only ask you, if I die, are you willing to wear linen and filial piety for me as a son of man." ”
Di Zhan's body trembled violently, raised his head suddenly, and stared at Lin Shiyuan with a stunned face: "Uncle, what are you talking about? You are in such good health now..."
"I just ask if you want to, don't talk so much nonsense. Lin Shiyuan said lightly, and didn't look at Di Zhan, "You can say whatever you want, I won't force it." ”
Di Zhan immediately said: "Uncle has saved my life, these years have been like my biological father, if... If... Naturally, I would like to. But I'm an outsider after all, and my uncle has a daughter..."
"According to the rules of the ancestors, Dai Xiao's can only be the eldest son. ”
Di Zhan hesitated for a moment and said: "But according to the rules, isn't there still a son-in-law as the eldest son Dai Xiaoyi." ”
Lin Shiyuan sneered: "Li Qing, that's my killer, do you think it's appropriate?"
Di Zhan was slightly stunned, and then nodded heavily: "Uncle, I am willing, if there is really such a day, Di Zhan is willing to provide for you in retirement." ”
"Thank you. Lin Shiyuan nodded lightly, and his voice gradually lowered, "To tell you something from the heart, whether it is to Xiaohai or Qiuqiu, I owe too much." I often regret it over the years, but I can't make up for it. I don't even dare to hope that Qiuqiu will be sad for my departure"
"Uncle, you're thinking too much. Di Zhan said in a low voice, "The days to come are still long." ”
"Not necessarily. Lin Shiyuan paused slightly, staring at the bright light radiating from the small hall on the dark and gloomy shore ahead, "Maybe tonight will be over." ”
