Chapter 71: Old Lover

I narrowed my eyes, leaned over, approached my father, and stared at his face: "Dad, do you know Cai Ling'er?" ”

Dad twisted his head away and said in a reasonable tone: "Cai Ling'er is the daughter-in-law of the chairman of Wales Group, as long as she is not a person with closed news, basically everyone knows her, and of course I am no exception." ”

I feigned a hesitant expression: "But...... Dad, Cai Ling'er seems to recognize me as your son. ”

"What!?" Dad suddenly couldn't sit still, and almost exclaimed, he tried to calm down, but his lips still trembled: "You, you have contact with her?" ”

I nodded, squinted, and gossiped, "Yes, and besides, I feel like she hates you so much!" I said, Dad, did you do something unsightly to her? Otherwise, how could she hate you so much! ”

Dad's expression was serious: "Nonsense! This doesn't exist! Don't mention Cai Ling'er at home in the future, you must know that trouble comes from the mouth! ”

Ah! Threaten me, this is a threat to me!

I looked at my dad in amazement, then took a sharp breath, turned my head to look at their room, and shouted, "Mommy......"

Before Mom's words fell, my father covered my mouth, and he snorted: "Ahaha, hahaha, smash, you forgot, you were kicked out by your mother today!" How bad is it to alarm her at this time? It's been a long time since we've been nagging properly, so let's have a good chat today! ”

He raised a finger: "One hundred!" Don't mention Cai Ling'er at home in the future! ”

I glanced to the side and didn't look at him.

You want to buy me when you're only a hundred?

He raised another finger, two fingers in front of me: "Two hundred!" After the foreign plus, your mother bullied you, and I will help you speak! ”

I broke free of his hand, hugged my arm, raised my chin slightly, and flicked ten fingers on my arm: "I promised you that it's okay if you don't mention Cai Ling'er at home, but you have to tell me first, what kind of grudge is there between you and Cai Ling'er, what kind of grudge, so that she spilled all her anger on me." ”

Dad's face was a little gloomy: "She poured her anger on you?" ”

I said angrily: "No, this should have been a grudge between you, but I gave you the blame for some reason, and you were embarrassed to offer a hundred just now!" ”

"I'll add another hundred to you." Dad gently patted me on the shoulder.

I shrugged my shoulders: "What I want to know more than money is what grievances you have with that Cai Ling'er." ”

Dad's eyes were rolling, thinking.

In the end, he made a decision: "Since you want to know the grievances between me and Cai Ling'er, I can tell you!" But you must promise not to tell your mother about the fact that you have seen Cai Ling'er, let alone mention the name Cai Ling'er at home! ”

I raised my hand and vowed: "Okay, I promise not to tell my mother that I have seen Cai Ling'er, let alone mention the name Cai Ling'er at home!" ”

With that, I sat cross-legged on the couch, ready to listen to the story.

Dad was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke: "I had a relationship with Cai Ling'er......"

I smiled: "Although I guessed it a long time ago, I was still a little surprised when you said it yourself." ”

Dad smiled bitterly: "Originally, I thought she had let go, but you said that she seemed to have sent her resentment towards me on you, and I realized that she still didn't let go of what she had done before." ”

I was very curious and said: "I'm curious, Cai Ling'er is such a good and beautiful woman, why did my father give up on her and choose to be with my mother?" Hmm, I'm not saying that my mother is not excellent or beautiful, but on the premise of having such an excellent girlfriend, what is the reason for you to behave like such a scumbag! ”

Dad sighed: "Speaking of which, it's all my fault." ”

I gave him a blank look: "Of course I know, it's your fault!" ”

Dad doesn't actually look old, but at this time, like an old man in his twilight years reminiscing about his youthful past, the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes are more obvious.

He glanced at me, shook his head and smiled: "When I was as old as you, I, your mother and Cai Ling'er already knew each other."

The three of us go to school together, study together, participate in club activities together, and are often inseparable, like childhood sweethearts.

Moreover, our three academic performance is among the best in the school, and it is the key training object of the school.

Especially your mother, although she was born in an orphanage, her grades have always been the first in the grade, and even the first in the same grade in the city, and she is a sharp sword used by the principal to deal with other schools!

It can be said that it has been in love for a long time, one day Cai Linger suddenly expressed her heart to me, there was no accident, the two of us were together like this, it was our first love, and both sides were each other's first love.

After that, although your mother was still with us often, we both felt that she was gradually estranged from our relationship, and Cai Linger and I were still in love at that time, so we didn't pay attention to it.

Then one day, your mother found me. ”

Dad looked out the window: "The weather that day was exactly the same as today, it was raining heavily.

When I saw her after Cai Ling'er and I finished dating, she was standing at the entrance where I had to go home, soaking wet, her face was as pale as paper, I don't know how long she waited, I only know that after seeing me, your mother couldn't hold on and fell into the water.

Your mom had a high fever all night, and when she woke up, she couldn't stop shedding tears, and we kept asking her what happened, but she wouldn't say anything.

Your grandmother took her in her arms in distress and cried with her, and your grandfather thought she was bullied by me, and almost didn't drop me on the beam of the house and beat ......"

I was a little anxious: "What happened to my mother?" Another high fever, and another cry! ”

Dad rubbed his throat and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva: "Don't be in a hurry!" After talking for so long, my throat is dry. ”

I quickly poured a cup of tea for my father: "I'll pour you tea, you can continue to talk." ”

"Huh-" Dad drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, poured another cup for himself, and after drinking, continued: "After your grandma and grandpa walked away, your mother opened up to me, she was chosen by some special being to participate in a bizarre activity.

If she doesn't participate in this event, the most important people around her will be threatened, and she will be in danger, and I am the only one who can help her in this matter.

What's more, your mother and I were extremely good friends at that time, even if it was a stranger, seeing her pitiful appearance at that time, I would not hesitate to choose to help her.

But the next day, Cai Ling'er asked me to help her do exactly the same thing.
