Chapter 252: In the Dark

Li Ji'an said, and couldn't help sighing heavily, Lin Man heard the sound, and a strange light flashed almost invisible in his eyes.

"If Mo Chuxin knew about her and knew that Uncle you were so concerned about her, I would be very happy!"

Lin Man didn't tell a lie, although he couldn't tell Li Ji'an that he was Mo Chuxin who didn't die and was reborn in someone else, but every time he heard Li Ji'an talk about himself, he was really relieved!

Li Ji'an only nodded when he heard this, and then changed his words:

"Do you eat beef noodles?"

Lin Man smiled, and instantly widened his eyes: "Eat!" Uncle, you forgot, I just told you that I was called a foodie! ”

"Haha! That's good! ”

While speaking, the elevator has arrived on the first floor of the Boai Pharmaceutical Building, the elevator door slowly opened, Lin Man and Li Ji'an walked out one after another, and when they got into the car, Lin Man suddenly pretended to inadvertently open to Li Ji'an:

"By the way? Where is Aunt Tan now? Anyway, we're just having a light meal together, so let's call Aunt Tan together! ”

Speaking of Tan Xiaojun, Li Ji'an's eyes were obvious, Lin Man saw it in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Sure enough, these two people, there is a problem!

Perhaps, when she came to Li Ji'an today, she could really get some clues!

Li Ji paused: "Your aunt has recently become obsessed with playing cards, I just called, she happened to have a few friends playing cards, we will call her together another day!" ”

Play cards?

Hearing Li Ji'an's words, Lin Man smiled coldly in his heart. Tan Xiaojun has been busy attacking Mo for a while now, where does he have the time to play cards.

And this Li Ji'an......

Lin Man really didn't know what to say about him! In the end, I really believe that my wife has reached such a point that I can't detect anything. Or did you already notice it, but for some reason pretended to turn a blind eye?

No matter what the reason is, Lin Man feels that Tan Xiaojun is not simple!

The corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and then he smiled lightly without a trace:

"That's a shame! I have to have a chance to be together next time! ”

The two of them got into the car as they spoke, and according to the route guided by Li Ji'an, the car quickly stopped in front of an inconspicuous noodle restaurant located at the entrance of a small street.

Li Ji'an got out of the car and couldn't help but look at Lin Man:

"Place is a bit basic, but it's clean! And it tastes great! Don't mind, next time Uncle treats you to a big dinner! ”

"What did my uncle say! Don't think I don't know, the taste in this kind of small shop is generally better than those five-star and six-star restaurants outside, I don't know how much better!

I believe in my uncle's taste, let's go! Let's go inside! ”

Lin Man responded casually, and then walked into the small noodle restaurant in front of him.

As Li Ji'an said, the store is not big, but it is very clean. And it's noon time to eat, and the shop is still quite prosperous, if it weren't for the fact that a couple left when they came in, I'm afraid they would have to eat standing today!

"Uncle! Let's sit over there! ”

ordered two bowls of beef noodles, and the two sat down at the empty table. Lin Man observed Li Ji'an's face carefully, and found that the light in his eyes at this time was abyss and long.

Generally, only people who are caught up in memories will show such a gaze.

Moreover, that memory is often impressive and significant!

Thinking of this, Lin Man immediately smiled lightly, pretending to casually ask Li Ji'an:

"There are a lot of memories for my uncle!"

"yes!"

Li Ji'an couldn't help but pause when he heard this: "In the past, when you and Aunt Tan were young, we liked to come here to eat.

At that time, the two of them were poor, had just started a business, and their monthly living expenses were carefully calculated. Your aunt loves to eat, so we take the opportunity to come here once a month to eat beef noodles as a meat and tooth sacrifice!

Unexpectedly, after so many years, this small shop has always been!

So once in a while, when I have time, I come over and sit! ”

I entered the memory!

Lin Man listened quietly, looking for an opportunity to ask. Since Li Ji Anken spoke in front of her, it means that some of the questions she asked below, as long as they don't touch the bottom line too much, will not be rejected.

Thinking of this, Lin Man couldn't help but look at it:

"That's right! Uncle, I've known you and my aunt for so long, why haven't I seen your children! ”

In fact, she had suspected this matter when she was still Mo Chuxin. It stands to reason that Li Ji'an and Tan Xiaojun are not young, but they have never heard them mention children, let alone see them!

As soon as Lin Man's words fell, Li Ji'an's face instantly became solemn and deep.

Seeing this, Lin Man knew that he must have asked about his sore spots, and when he was hesitating to change the topic, he suddenly heard Li Ji'an speak faintly:

"Our son, if he is alive, should be about the same age as you!"

Son?

Lin Man couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, although Li Ji'an's words contained a lot of information, they could definitely make people understand.

He and Tan Xiaojun once had a child, a son, but that child is no longer there!

Looking at the sad look on Li Ji'an's face, Lin Man couldn't help but purse his lips:

"Uncle Li, I'm sorry, I don't know ......"

"It's fine!"

Li Ji'an really doesn't seem to care so much:

"It was many years ago!"

Lin Man stopped talking, she didn't know if his son's matter had anything to do with Tan Xiaojun and the Mo family. After all, she just wanted to hear some news about Tan Xiaojun, but she didn't expect to inadvertently find out about other people's sad things!

The white-haired person sends the black-haired person, although she has not experienced the pain of losing a child, she can definitely understand it!

For a while, Lin Man felt that he couldn't help it, so he simply gave up his desire to continue to inquire this time, and decided to just accompany Li Ji'an for a meal honestly, as if it was to make amends!

The noodles were quickly served, perhaps because the topic that Lin Man had raised earlier was too heavy, and the two of them immediately fell silent and stopped talking, bowing their heads and eating noodles.

After eating a bowl of noodles, Lin Man immediately looked up at Li Ji'an. It just so happened that he had almost eaten enough.

"Lin Man, are you okay for a while?"

"I ......"

After thinking about it, it seems that there is really nothing wrong.

"Today's business is done, the afternoon is free, does uncle have anything to do?"

"Hmmm! I just mentioned to you, I haven't seen my son in a long time! I thought if you had time, you could come with me to see him!

He was a child......

I love it! ”

Lin Man didn't expect Li Ji'an to make such a request, but he was already a little unhappy about what happened just now, and when he saw Li Ji'an at this moment, he really felt that he had faded away from his brilliance, just an ordinary, simple, poor father who had lost his son!

Lin Man thought of his father, and suddenly couldn't refuse:

"Good!"

……

The car slowly drove towards the cemetery in the western suburbs, and when it reached the entrance of the cemetery, Lin Man got out of the car behind Li Ji'an and walked towards the top of the mountain.

As Li Ji'an walked, he began to speak faintly:

"The environment is lovely! My son has always liked to be lively, so I thought about finding him a better place with a lot of people, so that he would not be lonely! ”

Lin Man had never experienced such a thing, and he always felt that ordinary words of consolation such as condolences were actually insignificant and ineffective for these bereaved people.

If they care in their hearts, they won't change because of one or two words from you, and if they have let go and are not so persistent, they won't care if you say more or less.

Simply, at this time, except for a smile from the bottom of her heart, she still didn't say anything!

The two of them finally walked to a row of tombstones at the top of the mountain, and Lin Man followed Li Ji'an to stop in front of a tombstone. Li Ji'an slowly squatted down and began to brush the dust on the stele with his hand.

Lin Man stood quietly behind him, looking at the bluestone tombstone, the boy with a sunny smile, and suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

It seemed that the boy was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and Lin Man never thought that he would be so young when he died. And just by looking at the photos, you know that it is a very likable person!

After thinking about it, Lin Man still asked:

"Uncle, he's ......"

"Car accident! Something happened! ”

Another car accident!

Lin Man didn't know how many car accidents would happen every day in this world, and how many young lives would be taken away. I just think that maybe this boy is just as lucky as himself, in a new body, to start a new life!

At that time, the dust on the tombstone had been cleaned up, and Li Ji'an immediately stood up slowly, looked at the boy on the tombstone, and said to Lin Man:

"I can't see it, but he's actually very rebellious!

When your aunt and I were young, we were so busy with work and hard work that we ignored him. By the time we start to notice that it's time to start paying attention to him, he's become a rebellious teenager who fights, races, smokes, and drinks!

At that time, he was only sixteen years old, and once he drank alcohol and raced with others...... As a result, the car accident just happened!

At that time, this incident hit us very hard, and your aunt also blamed herself for this incident, feeling that it was because she neglected her love for her son that would let him embark on this road of no return!

Therefore, she decisively chose to quit the company and chose to stay at home!

Originally, we planned to have another child, but your aunt didn't agree anyway, she said that she would only have one child in her life......"

Li Ji'an's voice was low and heavy, revealing the vicissitudes of the years, Lin Man listened quietly, because he had died once, so he could clearly feel what kind of sadness it was!

It's just that......

Since Tan Xiaojun is willing to retreat into the background because of his son's affairs and no longer cares about the company's affairs, why would he start a company in secret, and be so persistent about the current Mo family?

Looking at the cheerful boy in the photo, Lin Man suddenly felt as if there was a force in the dark that was pulling her to the truth of the matter!
