「……」

"But I know that there have been several times when Dad has snuck into our room to see us after we have fallen asleep."

His son Lin Ao's heart is not ordinary delicate.

What Lin Ao remembered most was that when he was just learning to walk, he accidentally fell down the stairs and broke his arms and knees.

Father Lin Yechen returned home and saw the injured Lin Ao, and scolded Lin Yeqian and him together.

Lin Ao, who didn't understand anything at that time, was extremely aggrieved, and ran back to his room alone to sleep crying. In the second half of the night, he felt that his body was shaking in a daze, and he opened his eyes sleepily and found that his father Lin Yechen was carefully spraying Yunnan Baiyao on his wounds, and his movements were very gentle and careful, for fear of waking up his son.

From that moment on, Lin Ao knew the truth. Dad's gentleness will only be shown with actions.

"If you want to go back to your biological parents, I won't stop you."

"Daddy......"

Although Lin Yechen's face was calm with a light smile, Lin Ao saw a trace of sadness in his father's eyes.

He had been wanting to ask just now, but in front of Lin Jue and Lin Yeqian, Lin Ao still held back.

After a pause, Lin Ao raised his head and looked at his father Lin Yechen.

"Dad, may I ask a question?"

"Huh?"

"You knew from the beginning that Lord Lin and I were their biological children, but you never told us anything."

「……」

Lin Ao is naturally sensitive, and it is only a matter of time before he thinks of these problems.

But Lin Yechen didn't know how to open his mouth and say to his son, so many things happened before, whether it was Yuan Mian, Jiang Bo, or his Beitang Yaosun, or his Lin Yechen and Lin Yeqian.

Everything is because of them that led to today's Lin Nuanxi.

It can't be said that the birth of Lin Ao and Lin Jue was an accident, and even she Lin Nuanxi didn't know that she had two biological sons.

This kind of thing told Lin Ao that on the surface he wouldn't say anything, but in his heart he would definitely be hurt.

"When you're eighteen, can I tell you?"

The first time his father Lin Yechen's compromise, Lin Ao was stunned, but nodded.

"The father's unavoidable distress can be understood by the son. It's just, why would Dad say something like that?"

Lin Yechen raised his eyebrows puzzled: "What words?"

"Beitang Yaori is indeed the biological father of me and Lin Jue, but Dad, you and Uncle Ye Qian are equally important to us."

「……」

"Dad asked me when I was going to be back with them, and that was the feeling...... It's like you don't want us anymore, Daddy."

This is the reason why Lin Ao has always been very worried in his heart, afraid that once he and Lin Jue recognize Beitang Yaori, his father Lin Yechen will slowly distance themselves from them.

Lin Yechen knows his son Lin Ao's character very well, and similarly, Lin Ao can also guess Lin Yechen's thoughts.

Father Lin Yechen is an angular man with a hard personality. If Beitang Yaori knew that the two of them were his biological sons, no matter how Lin Yechen couldn't let go of him Lin Ao, he would definitely show his most ruthless side to him, forcing him Lin Ao to leave him and go to Beitang Yaori.

However, that kind of scene is the last thing Lin Ao wants to see.

"Even if you are not related by blood, Dad is always Daddy, and you and Uncle Ye Qian are indispensable to us."
