Chapter 769: What Are You Fighting For?
Chen Xueqin got out of the carriage with a large bag and walked towards a high-end coffee house.
The bag does not contain any beautiful clothes, necklaces and jewelry, it is full of diapers, imported milk powder and daily necessities for babies.
Chen Xueqin has changed.
After her father's death, she changed a lot.
After Mai Changqing's death, she changed amazingly.
She began to learn to be responsible and learn how to repay others. For example, Ling Hong.
Mai Changqing died for his brother. As Chen Xueqin's favorite man, she doesn't want her brother to live in self-blame for the rest of her life. She went through a lot of hardships to get Ling Hong's forgiveness. and occasionally accompanied Ling Hong for a walk and shopping, and even did not hesitate to change the diapers for Chengcheng. In the past, she was a noble woman who could not tolerate a little dust on her clothes. Now, she can overcome all the bad things for her brother and to pay off her debts.
When he came to the coffee house, Masei was already crying. Ling Hong was hugging the baby in her arms. Seeing Chen Xueqin coming in with something, she hurriedly said, "Help me make a bottle of milk." I just broke the bottle. The child may be hungry again. β
"Hmm. Wait a minute. Chen Xueqin put down the package and quickly made milk for the child. adjusted the temperature again, and then handed it to Ling Hong. This is the little baby next to him: "Chengcheng is good, Chengcheng doesn't cry, is it okay for Auntie to introduce you to the little beauty?" β
Ling Hong put the mouth of the bottle into the child's mouth, and then stopped crying. couldn't help but raise his head and said angrily: "You girl, Chengcheng has only been a few months, and you are going to introduce him to beautiful women?" β
"Giggles." Chen Xueqin said with a smile. "Our little Chengcheng is so handsome, he will definitely be a beautiful man who is fascinated by death in the future. Alas, I don't know which girl is so lucky to marry Chengcheng. β
Ling Hong glanced at her, her white and red cheeks revealed a thick love, and she said softly while feeding the child: "I just hope that the child can live a worry-free life and live a simple and happy life." β
"Ah. Who dares to bully our sincerity? His aunt I was the first to be unwilling. Besides, there's my brotherβ"
"Xueqin!" Ling Hong's face changed slightly, and there was a trace of resentment in her beautiful eyes, and she said coldly. "I'm friends with you. It doesn't mean forgive him. Later, we come out for tea and chat, and it's okay. But if you mention him again, we won't even be friends! β
"Wow-"
I don't know if I felt my mother's mood swings or how, but the little baby who was eating and nursing quietly cried again. Seeing this, Chen Xueqin hurriedly said: "If you don't say it, I promise not to say it in the future." You're scaring the kids. β
After that, he made a grimace to tease the child, and the little guy also ate Chen Xueqin's set. I really stopped crying and concentrated on eating.
There was a hint of discoloration in Ling Hong's eyes, which was fleeting. Immediately, he teased the child and hummed nursery rhymes to coax his son.
The child finally fell asleep after eating enough, Ling Hong lightly put the child into the cart, and then let out a long sigh and chatted with Chen Xueqin over coffee. But the sound is not loud, for fear of disturbing the child.
After chatting for less than ten minutes, there was a soft knock on the door. A hint of curiosity flashed in Ling Hong's eyes, and Chen Xueqin smiled: "They all said don't bother us, and I don't know who is so uninteresting." With that, he went to the door and opened the door.
As soon as she saw the man at the door, Chen Xueqin shouted in surprise: "Brother, you are here." β
Chen Yifei smiled and said, "What, isn't brother welcome?" β
"Not welcome!"
A cold and vicious voice came from inside the house, Ling Hong got up in a hurry, stared at Chen Yifei with sharp eyes, and said coldly: "Get out!" β
Chen Yifei's expression changed slightly, and he said bitterly: "Xiaohong, I just want to see the child." β
"Why do you think?" Ling Hong raised her voice and shouted. "What qualifications do you have?"
"I-" Chen Yifei, who has always been able to speak well, was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
"Sister Ling. Don't get excited, don't get angry. Don't wake up your child. Chen Xueqin hurriedly grabbed the emotional Ling Hong, her face full of contradictions.
"Xiaohong, I know you still hate me. Hate me and kill evergreen. Chen Yifei looked depressed and said softly. I only hope to make it up to you, you can hate me, but I made a pact with Evergreen. He has a child, and I will be his child's godfather. β
He took out a red envelope from his arms and said in a trembling voice: "You can not let him recognize me as a godfather, but- please accept this red envelope, okay?" It's okay if you torture me, please don't torture yourself, okay? β
Ling Hong was stunned.
stared at Chen Yifei with complicated eyes, and his emotions gradually stabilized. But the resentment on her face was still unabated, and after a long time, she broke away from Chen Xueqin and said in a low voice: "I will accept the red envelope for Changqing." Butβ" She said viciously, with a cold look. "Stay away from me! I don't want to see you for the rest of my life! β
Chen Xueqin hurriedly took the red envelope from her brother's hand and put it in the child's car. Squatted beside the car and whispered: "Chengcheng, this is a red envelope given to you by your father's brother." Auntie and your loved ones want you to grow up happily. β
When Chen Yifei heard this, his footsteps moved forward gently. There was softness in his eyes, and he was about to open his mouth, but he heard Ling Hong say coldly: "Go away!" β
Chen Yifei looked disappointed, nodded lightly and said, "You talk, I'll go first." He retreated to the door and said very reluctantly. Little Red. If there's anything - need my help. Let Xueqin tell me. β
"Get out!"
The coffee cup slammed into the ground with a crisp sound. Suddenly the child woke up again.
Chen Xueqin quickly picked up the crying child and coaxed it hard. With a slightly dissatisfied face, he said, "Sister Ling, even if you hate my brother again, you don't have to wake up the child, right?" Really. β
Ling Hongmu stood in place with a stunned expression. I don't know what I'm thinking.
Under Chen Xueqin's hard teasing, the little baby finally stopped crying. Ling Hong sat down in her chair and said nothing. After sitting for a while, Ling Hong apologized to Chen Xueqin: "Xueqin, I'm sorry, I'm a little tired." Go home with your child first. I'll make an appointment with you next time. β
"That-" Chen Xueqin said regretfully. "Okay. When you're in a good mood, we'll go shopping. But first, let's talk about it. Even if you are angry in the future, you must not scare your child. Don't let me, an aunt, not play with you! β
Ling Hong smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't say it, people will still think that you are a sincere mother." β
"Nonsense!" Chen Xueqin was startled and said angrily. "How can I be that old?"
"You're going to have a baby sooner or later. Who told you that if you become a mother, you will definitely get old? Ling Hong said angrily, and seemed to be in a better mood. Picked up the child in the car and said. "Let's go."
Out of the coffee house, Chen Xueqin personally opened the door for Ling Hong, and told Ling Hong not to lose her temper. Then he beckoned: "Call me when you get home, remember, don't be angry." Even if you become a mother, you have to take good care of yourself. I don't like to hang out with a yellow-faced woman! β
Ling Hong said angrily: "Long-winded." I see, you better hurry up and find a man to marry. Don't trouble me every day! β
Chen Xueqin's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity, but she was not coquettish, and said with a smile: "Go back." I'll go shopping again. β
After Chen Xueqin left, Ling Hong glanced at Chengcheng in the car behind, a resolute look flashed on her face, and then she was infinitely tender, and said to the child. "Chengcheng, are you willing to accompany your mother to avenge your father?"
The little baby shook his fleshy little hands, and his face was full of innocence.
"My good boy..."
β¦β¦
Chen Yifei returned to the car, put a cigarette into his mouth with a calm face, but did not smoke.
The second in the world in the driver's seat said lightly: "Didn't you worry about Chen Xueqin getting close to Ling Hong before?" Why aren't you worried? β
"Xueqin is not a girl who can hide her thoughts." Chen Yifei shook his head. "Before, I just suspected that Ling Hong knew about me. Judging from the current situation, she may not know. β
"Why? Is it because she didn't tell Chen Xueqin? The second in the world asked.
"Even if he knew. I don't dare to say it. Chen Yifei said lightly. Having said that, she has no secrets. Besides, do you think she will believe Ling Hong and not me? β
The second in the world was slightly stunned, and then asked: "Since she knows it, she doesn't dare to say it." So how can you tell if she doesn't know? β
"She's too tough." Chen Yifei frowned slightly and said. "If she knew about me, she should have approached me. Not close to me. What will she take revenge? When I approached her, she refused very strongly. Presumably. She really wants not to see me for the rest of her life. β
"So, she really doesn't know?" The second in the world asked.
"Maybe." Chen Yifei said lightly. "She didn't tell Xueqin, and she didn't want to approach me. These days, I have been hiding at home with my children. Nothing to do and hardly go out. That's all I can say. β
Just as the second in the world wanted to say something again, Chen Yifei shook his head again and smiled: "Of course." There are no absolutes. I can only roughly judge that she doesn't know how Mai Changqing died. There is no actual evidence. How do I make the final judgment? β
Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. It was precisely because of his prudence that he was able to spend ten years poisoning Chen Xueqin's father. If you don't have enough concentration and the city, who can do it?
"If she knew. What do you do? The second in the world asked the question he wanted to know the most.
"How?" Chen Yifei's eyes lit up, and then they dimmed again, and muttered. "It's a hard thing to decide."
"I don't kill women." The second in the world said.
"That's you." Chen Yifei narrowed his eyes slightly, the corners of his lips turned up slightly, and said word for word. "I only care about my godson. Someone else, why should I bother? β
β¦β¦
Lin Ze was holding a cigarette roll in the corner of his mouth, wearing an apron on his body, and he was stir-frying. I quickly fried three appetizers and hurriedly served them to the restaurant. Join the Wine Fighting Camp.
There were a few people sitting at the table. Ye Long, Mo Shu, Uncle Li, Uncle Lian.
With such a lineup gathered in the Han family, the eldest lady of the Han family felt that she had a special face. But Lin Ze didn't seem to have the urge to let her go to the table. Of course, she didn't dare to go up. She had some alcohol to drink. But it didn't get to the point of Xue Baiya.
Look at the people at the table, like crazy people! Pour it into your stomach one by one, as if you were drinking water. Except for a madman like Lin Ze to accompany them, who can afford it?
But she was curious why there were so many heavyweights at once?
She could probably guess the identity of Mo Shu. It can be distinguished from the attitude of the Zhuge family towards him. Ye Long she has also seen, the captain of the Tiger Battalion. How mighty?
As for that Uncle Lian. She had heard of it, knew it was a military superboss, but she had never seen it in person.
Uncle Li, who came to the Han family in person last weekβshe couldn't have not known her, and she couldn't have seen it. Even, most Chinese people have seen this national defense boss. You must know that this bigwig is in charge of communicating with heads of state when they visit China. His political status is still above Director Lian. It's also the master who often appears on TV. As a well-informed Miss Han, there is no reason why she should not know.
This group of people came to Lin Ze for a drink. The eldest lady of the Han family was a little distracted. Lying on the couch with his chin propped up, he watched the big men drink, only to throw gummies at the cherry mouths one by one. Chew subconsciously.
"Xiaolin, come, Uncle Lian respects you." Director Lian threw a peanut into his mouth and said with a large wine glass.
"Okay." Lin Ze smiled slightly, picked up his wine glass and said. "Thank you Uncle Lian for taking care of you."
"Smack!"
Uncle Lian was trampled on a sore foot, and slammed the wine glass on the table, and his originally gentle smile suddenly changed, and he shouted, "What did you kid say?" β
"Huh?" Lin Ze was slightly stunned, not knowing what he said wrong.
"Why thank me?" Uncle Lian said coldly.
"You took care of me, and I thank you for it." Lin Ze smiled bitterly.
"You don't know how your dad helped me in the first place!" Director Lian shouted. His eyes suddenly turned red, and he lifted Lin Ze's collar and said in a deep voice. "Boy, if you say this kind of thing again, don't call me Uncle Lian in the future."
He was still about to get angry, but he was grabbed by Uncle Li, forced him to press him on the chair, and said angrily: "Old thing, you are all old, what kind of tantrum do you have in front of children?" β
Director Lian just poured down the glass of liquor and said haggardly: "If it wasn't for him back then, how could I be where I am today?" Maybe he died a long time ago. But what about me? He was greatly wronged at the beginning, but he refused to let me help. Aren't you afraid that it will affect me? What the am I afraid of? If it weren't for him, I would have confessed my life. Can't you even intercede with him? β
Director Lian touched the corners of his moist eyes, poured a large sip of liquor into his mouth, and said to Lin Ze with a complicated and blank expression: "I didn't help your father back then, and then I didn't even take care of your mother, and she died of depression." You say, how did I become an uncle? You say, why do you want to thank me? You say, what the am I!? β
Director Lian actually showed some signs of old tears. Not to mention Lin Ze, even the book that was very familiar with him opened his mouth wide and was speechless.
Who Director Lian is, he knows much better than Lin Zeke. This has always been a majestic and domineering existence, but even Grandma Zhuge dares to call it out. Even if it was himself, his conversation was full of seriousness. Even if he was laughing with himself, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. But now? He burst into tears because of Lin Ze's simple thanks. couldn't help but glance at Lin Ze more, and his heart was extremely emotional.
The more Uncle Lian talked, the more sad he became, and finally went back to the guest room to rest with Uncle Li's support. Finally, Uncle Li returned to the dining table and said with a calm face: "Xiaolin, don't laugh. Your Uncle Lian usually has a bigger shelf than you think. The only knot in my heart is your dad's affair. It's the first time I've seen him so out of shape after so many years. β
"It's fine." Lin Ze said with a gloomy expression. "This proves that my dad didn't choose the wrong brother."
Uncle Li nodded and said calmly: "I drank with you this time, and Uncle Li may be busy in the future." Your Uncle Lian still came over to eat with a table of things today. Well, let you three brothers meet. Get acquainted with each other β of course, I know you're already getting along in private. But it doesn't matter, feelings are accumulated over time. β
"Xiaolin, you can contact me directly if you have something in the future. Of course, you can also look for Moshu. He is now the head of the Heavenly Sword. A lot of things can be said. As for Ye Longβ" Uncle Li smiled slightly. "His identity is actually just a disguise, and he only covers up the people below, and the dragon must know it. But since it's done, let's keep doing it. β
The three nodded in unison.
Lin Ze knew what Uncle Li meant. He is now a person of the Heavenly Sword. If Uncle Li is found again, it proves that the incident has escalated to an extremely serious level. For example, last time, N military bigwigs were dispatched. So Uncle Lee's meaning is obvious. If it's not a big deal, you can find Moshu to solve it. After all, Uncle Li is the boss of the Heavenly Sword, and if he has actions, he will definitely be involved in many aspects. The impact is too great.
Lin Ze is not stupid, Uncle Li mentions it a little, and he will clear the door.
Moreover, Lin Ze is not a person who likes to trouble people. Uncle Li is in a key position in the state. Even having a drink with yourself is a squeezed out time. Where can you compare to an idle guy like yourself.
After talking about the old for a while, Uncle Li stared at the three young people opposite him with heavy eyes, and said meaningfully: "Looking at you, it's like seeing us back then." Young man, Uncle Li is an elder to say something heartfelt to you. Uncle Li doesn't expect you to be too righteous. But remember, the soil of China gave birth to you to adulthood. You don't have to be responsible for too many people, but keep your reverence for the land. When it needs you. Don't hold back, stand up bravely. Maybe no one will remember you, maybe you won't get what you deserve. Perhapsβyou won't even get the glory that belongs to you. β
"But what does it matter? Are you fighting for glory, for reward, for making a name for yourself? β
"It's not!"
The three of them got up together and saluted Uncle Li with a standard military salute: "For the country!" β
