Ten years ago, Ling Ran, whose family fortunes had declined, ventured outside the usual circles while waiting for his parents to return, and encountered an ice coffin lying amidst the wind and fros...
Chapter 207: Flexibility
"Sister, Dad is gone."
Xiaobao lowered his head and spoke in a tiny voice.
Ling Ran was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Just now this girl was in the living room as if nothing had happened, but now she suddenly looked depressed.
"It's okay, I still have my sister and mom."
Ling Ran smiled and rubbed the girl's head lovingly.
“I’m not too sad actually.”
"Because my father is never at home, I hardly see him for a month."
"It's just that mom is uncomfortable, and then I feel uncomfortable too."
Xiaobao raised his head again and looked at Ling Ran stubbornly.
Ling Ran was silent again.
Maybe she and Xiaobao are very similar. She had Lingfeng's company in her first ten years, but Xiaobao did not have Lingfeng's company in his first ten years. So in Xiaobao's heart, father is just a word, without much real emotion. There is not much difference between leaving forever now and leaving forever before.
"Good boy, little one."
Apart from these three words, Ling Ran really didn't know how to comfort her.
Perhaps only companionship can allow time to slowly soothe Gu Hanyan and Xiaobao's hearts.
Ling Ran soon felt sleepy, and after a quick wash, he lay down on Xiaobao's bed.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Bao couldn't resist the sleepiness, so he lay down beside Ling Ran, curled up into a ball and fell asleep.
Fortunately, she became one of the few people who slept in the same bed with Ling Ran.
Gu Hanyan, on the other hand, sat on the sofa the whole night, looking at the photos of her and Ling Feng back then. Ling Feng was really very talented back then.
I miss the time when we met outside the circle.
All night long, people from various investigation teams went back and forth between the houses, collecting evidence that did not exist.
Maybe Ling Feng is a bad guy, maybe he has always been Long Tianyu's man.
But he never had a home, never showed off in front of any relatives, and never brought anything from the outside world back to this comfortable nest.
He was just a father and a husband.
Perhaps Gu Hanyan also understood why Ling Feng wanted to die.
Because he was the faith and pillar of his family, after being exposed, he did not want to bring back shame, nor did he want to be despised by his family, so he made this choice.
Early the next morning, Wu Linglong and Zhao Yun came again.
"Xiao Ran is inside."
Gu Hanyan raised her head and took a faint look, then pointed at Xiaobao's room and said.
"Auntie, you have a good rest, I'm here."
As a perfect best friend, Wu Linglong is always able to take the blame for Ling Ran's problems, even though she once said that she doesn't like people like Gu Hanyan who destroy other people's families.
Gently pushing open Xiaobao's door, Wu Linglong took Zhao Yun in.
Xiaobao was still curled up in Ling Ran's arms, sleeping soundly, with tears in the corners of his eyes.
"Be gentle."
Wu Linglong frowned and turned back to Zhao Yun and said.
Coming to see Ling Ran today was only one of the reasons. The second reason was that someone reported yesterday that only Xiaobao's room had not been searched.
Because Ling Ran and Xiao Bao were sleeping in there, the other teams didn't feel comfortable coming in and disturbing them.
"No."
"Evidence is meaningless."
"The person is dead, so no matter how serious the crime is, it is useless."
Zhao Yun shook his head and smiled. When he was on the road, he still had the idea of searching, but after arriving, this idea was completely dispelled.
No one would bring back sins from such a peaceful place. For example, he wanted to go back no matter how tired he was, because he knew Wu Linglong was waiting for him at home.
"Then how do you report?"
Wu Linglong was quite surprised. How could Zhao Yun, such a stubborn guy, know how to adapt?
Tell her earlier so that she won’t be upset on the way.
"I'll just say I didn't find it when I get back."
"You won't tell on me anyway, right?"
Zhao Yun smiled happily and winked at Wu Linglong flatteringly.
"Sister Linglong, are you here to investigate as well?"
In fact, Xiaobao woke up the moment the two came in. As a student, a model student, her biological clock is very powerful.
“No.”
"How is that possible?"
"We are here to play with Xiaobao."
Looking at Xiaobao who had already sat up straight, with this childlike face full of innocence, Wu Linglong felt embarrassed and awkward, so she hurriedly explained.
He glared at Zhao Yun fiercely again. If it weren't for this fool, how could Xiaobao have heard it?
It's all his fault.
Zhao Yun, who was innocently caught in the crossfire, also smiled awkwardly. He didn't want to be hated by such a little kid.
"Sister is still sleeping."
"Let's go out first."
I don’t know if Xiaobao really believed it, but a smile appeared on his face again and he climbed up.
Zhao Yun wanted to avoid it, but Xiaobao didn't take off his clothes when he went to bed last night, so he avoided any embarrassment again.
"Oh well."
Although she came to find Xiaoran for something, she was sleeping and Wu Linglong did not wake her up.
"Mom, go and have a rest."
"I'm here."
After going out, Xiaobao smiled at Gu Hanyan again.
"Well, I have already asked for leave for you."
"Thank you for your help."
Gu Hanyan responded and nodded to Wu Linglong and the others.
She had never met Wu Linglong and Zhao Yun, but she knew a little about Ling Ran's friends. They were all good people with abilities.
"No trouble, no trouble."
Wu Linglong, who was always well-behaved in front of her elders, waved her hands hurriedly.
He gave Zhao Yun a wink, and this famous master went into the kitchen in minutes.
No matter whose house he is in, the kitchen is Zhao Yun's home, while outside belongs to Wu Linglong and her little sisters.
"Xiaobao, were you happy last night?"
Holding Xiaobao's hand tightly, Wu Linglong asked.
"I'm happy. My sister is sleeping with me."
Xiaobao responded happily.
"I'm going to brush my teeth first."
"OK."
Wu Linglong then responded happily. It seemed that the two girls did not cry or make a fuss last night.
Look at the person with the surname Ling, and then look at the person with the surname Wu. Why is there such a big difference?
A child is much more sensible than Wu Qingcheng.
Probably because he knew something happened at home, Ling Ran didn't sleep too long and got up when Xiaobao was brushing his teeth.
"Why are you guys here so early?"
It was expected that Wu Linglong would come back, so Ling Ran was not surprised. He just didn't expect that this guy would come so early.
"Yeah, let's see if you're alive and kicking."
Wu Linglong rolled her eyes at her and said unhappily, "You're really taking my kindness for granted."
As for Zhao Yun in the kitchen, he popped up immediately after hearing Ling Ran's voice, and kept asking Wu Linglong to tell him that he wanted to talk to Ling Ran.
"That guy has something to ask you."
Wu Linglong still did not take up too much of Ling Ran's time. She pouted at her and motioned Zhao Yun, the guy whose eyes were about to pop out, to come over.
