Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Lost Child
"No, Mom, you'd better go back to Grandma's place for a while, and I'll pick you up in person in two days, okay?" Lin Xue smiled.
"Well, okay, if you have something serious to do these days, your mother won't bother you, but Xiaoxue, you must not have an accident!" Fang Wanrou's mood finally stabilized a lot, and before leaving, she still took Lin Xue's hand with some anxiety and said, "Mom, one last word." ”
"Mom, you said I listened."
"It's so big, can't you see it clearly? This man is a waste, he can't help you with anything, and you can only suffer a lifetime of grievances with him! Fang Wanrou said with a firm face: "So, mom is serious this time, after this matter is over, you must divorce this man!" You have to find a man who can help you, my daughter is so powerful, how can you waste your youth on a waste! ”
"Good! Mom, you go back first, and when this matter passes, I will listen to you. The bitter smile on the corner of Lin Xue's mouth became stronger, and she had to comfort Fang Wan and judo.
Fang Wanrou was completely relieved at this time, and before leaving, she glanced contemptuously at the battery car in He Xu's hand, smacked it fiercely, and then disappeared directly in front of the two of them with one foot on the accelerator.
"Let's go......" He Xu said calmly, he had experienced too much of this situation since he joined the family, and he had long been accustomed to it.
"No, you can go back first." The smile on Lin Xue's face had completely disappeared, and she looked at He Xu calmly and said lightly.
"Where are you going?"
"I want to go see my dad."
"I'll send you ......"
"No need." Lin Xue directly interrupted He Xu's words and continued: "I want to be alone with my dad for a while, and you go back by yourself." ”
After Lin Xue finished speaking, she turned around and left.
He Xu didn't move, just stood in place, watching Lin Xue's thin back slowly disappear in the cold wind of the night.
Lin Xue stopped suddenly, He Xu opened his mouth, wanted to speak, but did not make a sound, after just a few seconds of stopping, Lin Xue raised his feet, his back gradually faded away, and finally disappeared under the bleak street lamp......
……
He Xu returned to the Jialin community alone, the apartment was very small but he was the only one who seemed empty, and he couldn't sleep for a long time while lying on the simple bed in the living room.
Lin Xue came to the hospital alone, sat next to Lin Defei, raised her hand and pressed on Lin Defei's hand, looking at Lin Defei on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and unconsciously his eyes turned red again.
"Dad...... You can't do this...... Be strong...... I must survive, I can't live without you at home, I'm so tired of being alone......"
As soon as the words came out, tears burst into the embankment, Lin Xue cried like a tearful person, and fell on the hospital bed, at this moment she let go of all the burdens in her heart and cried bitterly.
She couldn't help but think of when she was a child, Lin Defei's solid shoulders carried her to run in the villa, she was so happy at that time, in her world, Lin Defei was omnipotent, until later, slowly growing, wrinkles also climbed on Lin Defei's face.
She began to understand a lot of things, it turned out that her father was also imperfect, although he was the biological son of Old Man Lin in the entire Lin family, he was carefree since he was a child, and he would only eat, drink and have fun.
She saw the intrigue in the family, and also saw that everyone in the family was disobedient to Lin Defei.
"Lin Defei? It's just a waste, if it weren't for Old Man Lin spoiling him, maybe he would have been kicked out of the house a long time ago! Now that old man is not going to be able to do it, I want to see who can support him at that time! ”
"That is, when you were young, you owed a few romantic debts, and when you are old, you only have one daughter? It is estimated that this kind of person will be marginalized by the Lin family in a short time! ”
"Hahaha, he Lin Defei won't be beautiful for long!"
……
Lin Xue who heard these remarks was only six years old, and at that time, the Lin family regarded Lin Xue as a child, and even ridiculed her in front of her, but they never expected that these words had already left a deep imprint in Lin Xue's heart.
It is precisely because of this that Lin Xue studied hard, worked hard to make herself excellent, and made herself stronger.
What the father loses has to fight for himself, he is a daughter, but he will never lose to any man in the Lin family!
Lin Xue still remembers that the night she graduated from college was the first time she provoked Lin Defei to be angry since she was a child.
That night, Lin Xue received a call from Lin Defei, and heard Lin Defei tell Lin Xue on the other end of the phone with joy that the family was willing to accept Lin Xue into the Lin Group, and handed over a small real estate company that was in a depression at that time to Lin Xue to be run by her.
At that time, Lin Xue sneered, even if her own business was just starting, how could her vision be like a small real estate company!
Although the company she founded herself is not large, with less than half of the staff of the small real estate company, its profit is three times that of the small real estate company!
She said to Lin Defei in high spirits: "Dad, I don't need to go back at all, I now have my own company, I can already support you, in less than five years, I am confident that I can earn half of the Lin family!" The Lin family is not worth my return at all! ”
"Bastard!!"
She was full of confidence and wanted to be recognized by Lin Defei, but what she waited for was an angry roar.
"You unfilial son, isn't the Lin family worth your return? Aren't you from the Lin family? The Lin family is your root! You are unfilial, you are forgetting your roots! ”
Lin Xue took the phone, her pride and ambition were wiped out by a basin of cold water, she was not convinced, she asked Lin Defei: "Dad, you are the descendant of the Lin family, but your life is not as good as a side line, the Lin family has not given you any property, aren't you desperate for that family whose interests are supreme and indifferent!" ”
"Even now, the family asked me to go back and gave me the Lin family's property, but what is that!? It's just a marginal industry of the Lin family, is this kind of enterprise worth my hard work? I have higher goals, bigger ideals, I can fly higher without being attached to the Lin family, but in the Lin family, I will receive all kinds of exclusion and pressure, do I have to go back like this? ”
"You are born as a member of the Lin family, and you are a ghost of the Lin family when you die!"
Lin Defei's answer was very simple, he seemed to hear his daughter's sobbing voice, he sighed, his eyes were red, and he said, "Daughter, how can I not know what you said?" But Dad doesn't blame them, he doesn't blame anyone! ”
"Back then, I didn't learn how to grow up until now, it's because of the Lin family, now I don't have the ability to naturally give those resources and industries to the Lin family's capable people, and I have no complaints in my heart, the Lin family will always be the Lin family, and it will always be a family, how can a family care so much?"
"My good daughter, I know that you are powerful, and I also know your ability, it is because of this that I am very happy, they can give you this opportunity to enter the Lin Group, I Lin Defei can be incompetent, but my daughter must be outstanding and make a splash!"
"Xue'er, you are so powerful, Fairview Real Estate may indeed be a little wronged to you, but as long as you make achievements, as long as you are dedicated to the family, the family will never treat you badly! Just like me, you see, I haven't learned to be idle for so many years, and my family doesn't eat and drink well, and give me money every month? ”
"Dad......" Lin Xue couldn't cry when she heard Lin Defei's words for some reason.
"Daughter, we are all a family, the family must be tightly united, for the good of everyone, I hope you can come back and contribute to the development of the Lin family, don't you remember your grandfather? How did your grandfather educate you as a child? One is prosperous, one is lost, our Lin family must have such a spirit! ”
“……”
Lin Xue cried speechlessly, at that time, she worked hard every day, how much sweat and hard work she paid, what a better future she looked forward to, and imagined that in the future, her father and mother could leave the Lin family, stay away from the children of the Lin family who were those forces, no longer have to be looked at by others, and could live out of themselves and be respected, but in the end, she found that everything she did was not what her father wanted at all.
All his fantasies are nothing but his own wishful thinking.
"Hey......"
Listening to the long silence on the other end of the phone, Lin Defei sighed, and after a short silence, he spoke: "Daughter, Dad knows that you are wronged, and it is uncomfortable for you to be wronged by Dad, otherwise you won't come back if you don't want to come back, Dad depends on you." ”
"Dad...... Father...... You...... Your heart's desire...... What is it? Lin Xue sobbed and spoke, pursing her lips and holding back her tears.
"I hope you are good, I hope your mother is good, I hope the entire Lin family is good, I hope your grandparents live a long life, hey, it may be old, I always feel a little panic......ked when I mention this," Lin Defei said slowly.
"I'll go back!"
Lin Xue said directly: "Dad, don't worry, your wish is my wish, I will help you achieve it, I must treat the Lin family as my own home, I must do my best, and I must make the Lin Group go to the next level!" ”
"Good! Good! Good! ”
Lin Defei smiled with relief, and his eyes were moist: "Hahaha! This is my Lin Defei's daughter! ”
Lin Xue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window thousands of kilometers away from Beichuan with red circles under her eyes, standing alone under the bright moon, crystal still hanging in the corners of her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were smiling at this moment.
If you fall, you get up, and if you go in the wrong direction, you will start all over again! Father's wish is the direction of his own struggle!
At that time, Lin Xue comforted herself like this......
……
A wry smile crossed the corners of Lin Xue's mouth, even though it was thousands of miles away at that time, Lin Xue knew that his father on the other end of the phone was fine, and he could still hear his father's voice, but now, at hand, his father was unconscious, and his life and death were uncertain.
"Dad...... Wake up...... Wake up, tell me what to do now, what exactly should I do, what to do to be happy. ”
Lin Xue's tears wet her clothes, she held Lin Defei's somewhat cold palms with her right hand, and shook them gently, but Lin Defei still seemed to be asleep, and there was no answer at all.
"Woo ......"
Lin Xue threw herself into Lin Defei's arms, crying like a lost child......
