Chapter 158: His Past
Because Xiao Ruoyan fell asleep, Wen Ning walked around the huge castle alone after eating breakfast, anyway, those men knew that they were honored guests held in the palm of Xiao Ruoyan's palm, so they all disappeared after handing her a large string of keys.
Wen Ning was a little surprised by their approach: I'm just a person who came here to play, how can they be so relieved? Aren't you afraid that I will take the key and steal it myself?
However, thinking that there were surveillance cameras everywhere here, Wen Ning was relieved: even if he took something, he was afraid that he would not be able to go out.
Seeing that there was a horseback riding field nearby, Wen Ning happily walked over there, and after finding the key to the riding field, he immediately opened the door.
Although he didn't ride horses much, Wen Ning still had some experience in how to ride these horses.
Looking at the horses of different colors at the door of the stable, Wen Ning really felt the urge to try each one. However, thinking that there were still many places she had not visited, she couldn't help but pout, and after many comparisons, she chose a black and white variegated horse.
Slowly grabbing the reins on the horse's head, Wen Ning led it out, and then closed the stable door again. Turning over the horse, Wen Ning gently waved the horse's buttocks, and then sat on the horse's back and enjoyed the happiness of strolling through the castle.
However, she wondered: why did the horse have two scars on its face? Who's scratching it, it looks so bad.
Reaching out and touching the horse's eyes, Wen Ning was just about to sit up straight, when the horse suddenly went crazy and took her to gallop in the horse farm.
In a panic, she also forgot to take the whip, but just hugged the horse's neck vigorously, not daring to let go.
Seeing that its speed was getting faster and faster, Wen Ning's mood became a little nervous: Oh no, what should I do now?
The bodyguards who had been observing Wen Ning immediately pressed Xiao Ruoyan's mobile phone after seeing her condition.
After receiving the report, Xiao Ruoyan quickly put on his clothes, rushed downstairs to the horse farm with an arrow step, picked a black horse and rushed over.
After seeing that Wen Ning had chosen the most difficult wild horse to subdue, Xiao Ruoyan tightened the reins and let the black horse crash into the out-of-control wild horse, and he reached out and pulled her into his arms at the moment when Wen Ning was about to fall, wrapping her with his own body.
The two horses fell to the side because of the collision, foaming at the mouth, which made Wen Ning frightened.
Xiao Ruoyan patted Wen Ning's head and kissed her hair gently: "Don't be afraid, it's okay." ”
Her back hurt hotly because of the friction on the ground, but Xiao Ruoyan didn't want Wen Ning to know, and after holding her up, she immediately held back the pain and reluctantly squeezed out a smile.
It's just that even though he had endured it, Wen Ning still saw his frown because of the pain: "Are you injured?" ”
"Nope."
Xiao Ruoyan left with Wen Ning in his arms, and didn't look at the two horses: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”
Following Xiao Ruoyan to continue shopping, Wen Ning felt a little sour in his heart: why be reckless? You're obviously injured? I know you want me to be happy, but, but, I'm not worth it at all, I can't get results with you.
followed Xiao Ruoyan with her heart in this way, and she found that she didn't know when she came to a somewhat creepy place.
Raising his head and glancing at Xiao Ruoyan, he was still the same calm, without the slightest reaction. Although he felt a little scared, Wen Ning didn't ask him, just continued to follow him.
When Xiao Ruoyan stretched out his hand to open a door that was already covered with dust, the scene in front of Wen Ning was really a little terrifying: if the castle outside was magnificent, then this corner could be said to be stumbled to the extreme.
The cobwebs crawling in the corner of the wall made people feel like they had walked into a haunted house, the ashtray on the coffee table was full of cigarettes, and the bottleneck in an empty wine bottle next to it was lying horizontally, and a few drops of water were dripping down the corner of the table.
"Ahem, ahem!"
"Ahh
When Wen Ning heard that someone in this room was coughing, she suddenly threw herself into Xiao Ruoyan's arms, and her whole body was constantly trembling.
Xiao Ruoyan patted her shoulder and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, that's my dad!" ”
Hearing her say this, Wen Ning was obviously a little strange: how could it be? If that man was really his father, how could he live in such a bad place? It stands to reason that as a son, he should be filial to the old man, right?
Knowing Wen Ning's thoughts, Xiao Ruoyan sighed and pulled her out a few steps: "Things still have to start with ice drinks." ”
Back then, the Xiao family was even more powerful than the Bing family, but Father Xiao never showed his family's strength too much, but just blindly made a face in front of outsiders.
However, instead of making Bing Yu happy, he hid a kind of jealousy in the days that followed, feeling that Father Xiao was ridiculing him for his incompetence.
It is not the first time that the Xiao family has encountered an enemy, and the heirs of each generation of the Xiao family have a foundation in kung fu, even Xiao Ruoyan, who was only sixteen years old five years ago, is no exception, he can engage in hand-to-hand combat with four or five big men with his bare hands.
originally thought that these skills were just a temporary game, but when Xiao Ruoyan was about to hold a coming-of-age ceremony, Bing Yujue suddenly sent someone to cripple his father's legs and wanted to take everything from the Xiao family.
If it weren't for the Xiao family's own secret plank road, I'm afraid there would be no way to avoid this catastrophe of extermination. It's just that although the Xiao family did not fail completely, a large part of the wealth was taken away by the ice drink.
What Xiao Ruoyan has now is relying on the wealth he created later and those dead people who are unwilling to leave the Xiao family until death.
Wen Ning listened to him tell such a thing, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart: when I was fifteen or sixteen years old, I was still coquettish with my parents, but he had long been used to rolling in the bloody rain.
"Don't cry."
Xiao Ruoyan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes distressedly, saying that it was already in the past, and now everything is fine for her.
"No, since you have everything now, why don't you give your dad a clean place?"
Hearing Wen Ning say this, Xiao Ruoyan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How could I not feel sorry for my father?" ”
It turned out that Xiao Ruoyan had come here to persuade his father to move out over the years, but every time his father remembered that he had caused so much loss to the Xiao family because of his own negligence, he still hadn't repented of his brothers who died in vain, so it was also a punishment to keep himself locked here.
Seeing that Wen Ning wanted to speak and stopped, Xiao Ruoyan continued to explain the situation to her. Although his father can't move out, he has the best things for him to use, except that he is not allowed to let people clean up for him, he still eats food every day, drinks alcohol, and regularly asks the doctor to come in to check on his body measurements.
How can there be such stubborn people?
Wen Ning felt that since so many years had passed, this Xiao Father should not continue to dwell on these pains, and should come out like Xiao Ruoyan.
No matter what, after thinking about it, she felt that maybe Xiao Ruoyan was not as simple as she thought, wouldn't he still use cruel means to deal with others? Perhaps, this is a way for him to close himself, and he, like his father, does not let go.
Although there was no way for his father to see Wen Ning and admit this daughter-in-law in person, Xiao Ruoyan knew that he couldn't let her go.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Ruoyan took Wen Ning out of the dark and damp room, and then closed the door.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, an old man who had been hiding in the dark compartment slowly turned the mechanism and came to the living room with a wheelchair from the inside.
The sunken eye sockets were scary to look at, and the thick dark circles under his eyes showed that he hadn't rested for many days. And Xiao's father, who should still be black-haired, is only forty-eight years old, but his hair is already gray.
As you can imagine, that accident almost turned the former business myth into an old madman.
Tremblingly, he reached out and touched his beard, and Xiao's father's black eyes were full of tears: Son, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry.
Tremblingly, he picked up a photo on the table, and Father Xiao reluctantly touched the clear people on it: Old friends, it's been so many years, I don't know how you are doing in heaven? Do you know how uncomfortable I am, brother? Why didn't you take me away from the original misfortune? If so, I can go to you to repent and atone for my sins! I shouldn't have believed that bastard, I shouldn't!
"Dad!"
Xiao Ruoyan excitedly pushed open the door and knelt down in front of him at once, his face was already full of tears: "I finally saw you!" ”
"Get out, get out of here."
Father Xiao angrily grabbed the wine bottle and threw it at Xiao Ruoyan, seeing that his forehead was full of blood and refused to leave, he picked up his crutches again: "Can you go?" ”
"Don't go."
Xiao Ruoyan choked and kowtowed to him: "It's been so many years, you should also take care of me, right?" ”
"Get out."
Wen Ning, who originally didn't plan to intervene, saw that Xiao Ruoyan was beaten so badly, and couldn't help but rush over, wanting to pull Xiao Ruoyan away, but his arm was hit hard by the old man.
"Ahh
Hearing Wen Ning's cry of pain, Xiao Ruoyan had to change her mind, reached out to pick up Wen Ning, and took her out of the house.
Seeing that his son cherished this girl so much, Xiao's father's lips moved slightly: Do you already have someone worth caring about? Child, it seems that you have grown up, I am old, and I can't help you at all. You have to go down the road on your own.
