Chapter 115: Rite of Passage (2)
"Haha Ling Zhan laughed wildly again, "Luo'er, you have become smarter, just a little bit of it." ”
Ling Luo blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Grandpa, if you praise me again, Luo'er will be proud." ”
"Hahaha, you can go with pride."
The sound of wild laughter that resounded in the sky kept coming out of the Tongxuan Courtyard, and Ling Zichang, who had been guarding the door, couldn't help frowning, with a look of confusion.
He has been with his grandfather in the army for many years, and he has rarely seen him laugh, let alone laugh so frequently. It's just - weird!
When Ling Luo came out of the main hall of Tongxuan Courtyard, he happened to see a tall and handsome young man at the door.
Perhaps, it is no longer time to call it a teenager.
Searching the memories in her mind, she recognized him at a glance, he was Ling Zichang, a descendant of the branch who had followed Ling Zhan for many years, and the first person of the Ling family.
Ling Zichang has been immersed in the military camp all the year round, following Ling Zhan to kill wantonly, with a strong aura of slaughter, his appearance makes people feel extremely sharp at a glance.
"Brother Zichang." Ling Luo stepped forward and took the initiative to say hello to him, "How are you?" ”
Ling Zichang's extremely serious face, when he saw the girl in front of him, he couldn't help but soften a lot, the corners of his lips hooked a slightly invisible arc, and said, "I'm fine." Luo'er, you've grown up. ”
Ling Luo has a good impression of the young man in front of him, not for anything else, just because in the original memory of this body, when she is humiliated, this young man who doesn't speak much will always pull her as much as possible at a critical time.
Ling Zichang is Ling Zhan's people, and they all protect themselves.
"I haven't seen her for more than a year, and Luo'er is no longer a little girl." Ling Luo smiled slightly, "Brother Zichang, you are getting more and more handsome, I don't know how many girls in Lu Dao should be worried about you." ”
Listening to Ling Luo's jokes, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Ling Zichang's face, he was an honest man with a sharp edge.
"Luo'er, tomorrow your sixteenth birthday coming-of-age ceremony, I will definitely go." Ling Zichang's voice seemed a little serious.
Ling Luo nodded and said with a smile, "Okay." Sister Yue is also there, Luo'er remembers that Brother Zichang liked Sister Yue very much when he was a child. ”
Who knew that Ling Zichang's face suddenly became solemn, and he shook his head and said, "Who said I like her." ”
Ling Luo was a little surprised, looked at this serious young man, and asked, "Then why did you always like to follow Sister Yue at that time?" ”
Ling Zichang glanced at Ling Luo lightly and said, "I'm afraid that Ling Yue will harm you." ”
Ling Luo was stunned for a moment, and a very strange emotion filled her heart, it turned out that-
Ling Zichang coughed lightly, with the unique perseverance and stubbornness of a soldier on his face, and said: "Since I was a child, I have been ordered by my grandfather to protect your safety as much as possible, but I didn't expect to be misunderstood by you like this." ”
“…… Thank you. Ling Luo was relieved and chuckled.
Ling Zichang didn't speak, and slowly turned his head, not daring to look at that delicate face.
He still remembers the scene when she has been following him since she was ten years old, crying at every turn, like a water doll.
But before the age of ten...... Ling Zichang's eyes narrowed.
At that time, she was the concubine of the entire Ling Mansion, and with Mu Yuling protecting her, she could walk sideways in the palace every day.
However, at that time, he was just the son of a humble concubine of the Lingfu branch, who suffered humiliation, and when he was most hungry, it was she who helped him again and again.
