Chapter 26: Blaming us, mother and son, for having ended our relationship in our previous life...
"How was the chat with that little girl?" On the way to the underground parking lot, Ling Siyan asked Ling Yi with a hint of sarcasm.
Ling Yi uttered two words: "Not bad!"
"What does 'okay' mean? Good or bad?" Ling Mo also teased and pinched Ling Yi's cheek. "Don't be like your father at such a young age. He has a stern face every day, like an old man."
I sighed in my heart, it feels so good, I must find an opportunity to pinch it more.
She continued, "Your father already has a wife, so it doesn't matter. You look so sullen every day, which girl would dare to approach you? Be careful that you won't be able to find a wife in the future."
Ling Yi pulled Ling Mo's hand away and said expressionlessly: "I have a fiancée."
"Wow!" Ling Mo exclaimed, "I've even called my fiancée. It looks like we're having a good chat!"
Ling Siyan also raised her eyebrows, "So you are willing to fulfill this engagement?" That girl is quite capable!
"Yeah," Ling Yi nodded.
Ling Siyan was somewhat impressed by Ling Yi's ability to be frugal with words.
With the common curiosity of human beings, he asked: "So you like that little girl very much!"
Ling Yi looked up at Ling Siyan helplessly: "Mom, I'm only 14 years old, still young! I told her that we should be friends first and not talk about feelings before we become adults——"
"Besides, didn't you say that minors are not allowed to date? Could it be that—" Ling Yi blinked, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes: "Are you trying to sting the law?"
Ling Siyan was rarely stumped by a question, but she was quick-witted and quickly reacted, saying, "I'm talking about love between friends! Who says love can only be expressed to lovers? You can say it to friends and relatives!"
And asked back: "Don't you like mom and dad?"
Ling Yi retorted: "My feelings towards my parents are love, which is more than liking them." His tone was very serious.
Ling Siyan was stunned, and her nose was sore for a moment, but she soon smiled again, looked into Ling Yi's eyes, and said in the same serious tone: "Mom and Dad love you too."
Perhaps when she was just reborn, she felt more guilty towards the child and wanted to make up for her debt.
But if you put aside your concerns and prejudices about Ling Yi's background, it's really hard not to love this child from the bottom of your heart.
"Then what kind of feelings does Yier have towards his uncle? Like him or love him?" Ling Mo couldn't help but interrupt and ask.
Ling Yi rubbed his cheeks, expressionless: "I don't hate it."
"Don't you like it?" Ling Mo widened his eyes and asked persistently.
He even threatened shamelessly: "Yier, if you don't like your uncle, your uncle will be sad." As he said that, Xizi covered her chest with her hands.
Ling Yi hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his right hand, with his thumb and index finger pointing a little apart: "A little bit."
"Is it just this little?" Ling Mo looked disappointed.
Ling Yi moved his thumb down another inch: "This much, no more."
Ling Mo laughed, and let go of his hand that was covering his chest. He looked at the serious little face, rubbed the top of Ling Yi's head, and said with a smile: "Then uncle will try hard to make Yier like you a little more?"
I sighed in my heart, this child is so well-behaved that it makes me feel distressed.
"Okay." Ling Yi responded seriously.
Ling Siyan had been watching Ling Mo's antics with a smile on her face, and now she said, "Since you are willing to fulfill the engagement, let's find some time to exchange tokens and make it official."
Originally, I took the picture of Violet Kiss and wanted to give it to the little girl Chu Qingtang.
But later they bought the more expensive "Guardian of the Snowland" at an auction, so it was difficult for them to give away the Violet Kiss.
"Guardian of the Snow Region" was taken by Lu Xiao and given to her, so it cannot be given to anyone else.
I have to find an object of similar value to the Snow Guardian as a token of trust.
A few of them chatted as they walked to their parked cars.
"Mom." A voice came from behind.
Ling Siyan turned around and looked at Han Chengyu and Su Ranran who were walking hand in hand.
I sneered in my heart, they really are inseparable.
"What's up?"
"Mom, why has your attitude towards me changed so much since that quarrel? I said something I shouldn't have said that time, but didn't I apologize to you?" Han Chengyu's eyes were full of confusion.
"I raised you for eighteen years, but didn't you return to your father without looking back just because of a woman?"
"I didn't," Han Chengyu tried to explain, "Mom, your control is too strong and makes me feel suffocated, so I want to separate for a while so that we can both calm down."
Too much control?
Ling Siyan found it funny and laughed out loud: "What do I control about you?"
Han Chengyu was silent for a while: "When I was a kid, I wanted to eat at a roadside stall, but you said it was unhygienic and unclean, so you dragged me away."
Ling Siyan thought for a moment before remembering what he was talking about. She said calmly, "But didn't you eat it later?"
"But after that time, I don't want to eat anymore."
"The fried skewers and fried chicken legs you ate later were made by your mother after she spent a week learning how to make them." Ling Yi next to him suddenly said.
At that time, Han Chengyu was 7 years old and he was 3 years old.
He hid in the dark, drooling at the aroma coming from the kitchen.
But he knew his mother didn't like him, so he didn't dare get close to her.
Han Chengyu was stunned.
Ling Yi continued expressionlessly: "In order to make the taste you want, Mom's hands were burned and blistered a few times."
Later, he also tried the fried skewers and fried chicken legs.
Aunt Li gave it to him secretly and didn't dare let Ling Siyan know.
He didn't dare let Ling Siyan know.
What he had always longed for was discarded by Han Chengyu.
He doesn't deserve his mother's love.
Ling Siyan was listening nearby, her eyes darkening.
She has no talent in cooking. She has to fail many times before she can succeed in making dishes that others can learn by watching them once.
Han Chengyu was silent for a while, then he said in a hoarse voice: "Then why did you report that store and stop them from doing business?" Most of the customers of that store were students from their school. The next day he heard from his classmates that the store was closed down after being reported.
Ling Siyan said expressionlessly: "I reported it. If you have anything else, continue talking."
"There was also the summer camp when I was 9 years old. Our whole class had been looking forward to it for a long time, but you didn't let me go. You also put pressure on the school to cancel the summer camp. Not only that, you also replaced the school's leadership and our class leader."
"Anything else?"
"When I was 10 years old, my classmates asked me to go out and play on the weekend. You told me to study hard at home and didn't let me go out. You even asked your bodyguard to kick those two classmates out."
"continue!"
Han Chengyu shook his head: "Since then, I have obeyed you in everything you asked me to do and learned everything you asked me to learn. I have never disobeyed you. Only this time -"
Han Chengyu glanced at Su Ranran beside him and said, "Ranran is someone I really like. I don't want to give up on her again."
Su Ranran looked at Han Chengyu with eyes full of heartache, and then looked at Ling Siyan with disapproval.
"Auntie, how could you do that? Chengyu is your child, not a toy for you to manipulate. It is a child's nature to like eating, drinking and having fun. What you are doing is stifling a child's nature. You are going too far." Su Ranran's eyes were full of anger and accusation.
Ling Siyan smiled.
So, her biggest mistake was protecting him too well.
"I don't allow you to eat at street stalls because I saw a lot of cat and dog hair outside that store. I reported that store because in order to reduce costs, the meat used for kebabs was all from the bodies of dead stray cats and dogs."
Han Chengyu's face turned pale, and Su Ranran's expression also froze. They both felt a feeling of nausea rising from their stomachs up their throats.
"I didn't let you go to the summer camp because it was one of the locations selected for my farm stay project. The field survey team just came back from that farm. Their survey results show that the only way to the farm is through a section with a high risk of landslides, which is not suitable for the development of the farm stay project. J City has a high incidence of heavy rainfall in summer, and the safety of the students in that summer camp cannot be guaranteed at all."
"They organized a summer camp but didn't plan the activities properly. They ignored the safety of the students and just sat there doing nothing. Why should I keep them here? And the team leader was the one who suggested to the school leaders that the summer camp be held at that farm. Her hometown is there, and she knows the conditions of that road very well. So -"
Ling Siyan looked into Han Chengyu's eyes quietly: "Tell me, should she be fired?"
Han Chengyu's face turned pale and blue, and he had nothing to say.
"Finally, your two classmates invited you to go out and play, but their eyes flickered and they looked uneasy. I kept them at home for a while and sent bodyguards out to investigate. The result of the investigation was--"
Ling Siyan looked at Han Chengyu's face, which was gradually losing its color. "There are two street thugs waiting for you outside your house. They are waiting for your good classmates to take you out so that they can blackmail you."
"You said you would learn whatever I asked you to learn." Ling Siyan asked, "What did I ask you to learn? Piano, violin, painting, calligraphy, kendo, which one was not something you asked to learn yourself?"
Seeing Han Chengyu speechless and absent-minded, Ling Siyan lost the desire to talk to him.
"Yier, give me the household registration booklet."
Ling Siyan had already anticipated that she would run into Han Chengyu at this dinner, so she took her household registration booklet with her before leaving.
She had no place to put it, so Ling Yi volunteered to take it and put it in his suit pocket.
Ling Yi's lowered eyes flashed with joy, and he quickly pulled out his hand that had been in his suit pocket, "Here."
Ling Siyan took it and threw it to Han Chengyu: "I have separated your household registration. From now on, you can do whatever you want, and I won't ask you anything."
After saying that, without even looking at Han Chengyu, he opened the car door and patted Ling Yi on the shoulder: "Get in the car!"
Ling Yi got in the car, Ling Siyan followed closely behind, and Lu Xiao went to the driver's seat.
Ling Mo looked at Han Chengyu deeply, opened the passenger door and sat in.
The car started and the window slowly rose.
"Mom!" Han Chengyu suddenly shouted, with a hint of sadness in his voice: "Don't you want me anymore?"
The car window was completely closed, blocking Ling Siyan's indifferent profile.
It's not that I don't want you.
It was you who didn't want me first.
We, mother and son, had already ended our relationship in our previous life...
