At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Feng returned with the appraisal report.

"Have you two eaten?" Su Ling asked the two people who entered the room.

"Not yet!" Zhan Yang touched his belly. "I waited at the appraisal center for the whole morning, and after getting the report, I hurried back."

Su Ling turned around and asked, "Aunt He, is there any lunch left?"

Aunt He, who was polishing the mahogany chairs in the living room, stopped and said, "Yes, yes! I made too much food for lunch and put it in the refrigerator to keep it fresh. I'll go heat it up."

"Sorry to trouble Aunt He." Su Ling said.

Aunt He put down the rag and went to the kitchen to heat up the food.

Su Ling took Lu Feng's hand, looking a little excited: "Let me see it quickly."

"Yes." Lu Feng took out a leather bag from his briefcase and handed it to him.

Su Ling took the leather bag with trembling fingers, opened it carefully, pulled out the appraisal report, and carefully checked the data on it.

When he saw the column for stamping kinship, he looked up at the seal. "This result shouldn't be wrong, right?"

Lu Feng rubbed his curly hair. "No."

Zhan Yang said: "The Judicial Identification Center in H City is highly authoritative and will not make mistakes."

Moreover, although they took some effort to find someone to expedite the appraisal, the result was absolutely accurate.

Su Ling put the report back into the leather bag and took a long breath. "Then... when can I go visit Xiao Fangqi?"

The requirements for the hospital's ICU ward are very strict, and visiting is restricted. Before, since I was not a family member, it was inconvenient to visit. Now that the relationship has been confirmed, it should be no problem.

"The ICU can only have half an hour of visiting time every day. I have used up my time today, so Mr. Su can only go tomorrow." Zhan Yang said. In order to cut Xiao Fangqi's hair today, he went to the hospital before dawn. However, the hospital has its own regulations. The visiting hours of the ICU are from 3 pm to 9 pm. He relied on his status as a medical fund donor to ask the head nurse to make some concessions, and only then did he get the opportunity to visit early in the morning.

Su Ling's eyes dimmed, and he looked disappointed. "Okay..."

Lu Feng hugged him and comforted him. "Let's go tomorrow as well."

"Okay." Su Ling nodded.

Aunt He heated up the dishes and invited the two of them to eat.

Zhan Yang was already starving, so he sat down at the dining table, ignored etiquette, picked up his chopsticks and wolfed down the food. Lu Feng's movements were much more elegant than his, but he ate quickly too.

Su Ling sat next to him and put a bowl of soup in front of him. "Eat slowly. Eating too fast is bad for your stomach."

"Hmm." Lu Feng took the spoon and drank the tomato and egg soup slowly.

Zhan Yang finished eating quickly, wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue, stood up and said, "Boss, Mr. Su, I'm going back to town first."

Su Ling asked, "Wouldn't you like to take a break?"

Zhan Yang said, "There are still things to do in town."

"Is that so?" Su Ling said to Lu Feng, "Send an assistant to Zhan, otherwise he will be too tired to do it alone."

Lu Feng put down the spoon and looked at Zhan Yang: "Go to the Human Resources Department and ask for someone yourself."

"Yes, Mr. Li." Zhan Yang breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, there have been too many things to do recently, and he really can't handle it all by himself.

After Zhan Yang left, Lu Feng finished his meal and went upstairs with Su Ling.

Standing in the large, empty room, Su Ling gestured excitedly, "I contacted a spring installation company. I saw their design and thought it was very good. I'd like to ask them to come over and do the renovation the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"

Lu Feng paced back and forth, raised his hand and knocked on the thin wooden wall. "We need to add sound insulation."

"Uh." Su Ling blushed. This building was built on the foundation of the old house. There were wooden walls between the rooms, so the sound insulation was poor. In the past, only he and Lu Feng lived here, so it was okay to shout louder at night when they got excited. Now that Aunt He lives in the west room, they dare not act rashly at night.

He immediately took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to the spring installation company, requesting them to add top-grade sound insulation materials.

After sending the message, he raised his eyebrows at Feng Yang. "Done."

With a smile on his face, he stood in front of the window and looked at the scenery in the distance. "This bedroom has the best lighting."

Su Ling leaned on his shoulder. "Yes, this should be the master bedroom."

Lu Feng asked: "Let's move to this room and renovate the one on the east side into a children's room?"

Su Ling shook his head: "No, I'm used to living in the east room. Let's leave the room with good lighting for the children!"

Ru Feng's eyes were gentle. "You like it so much?"

Su Ling rested his elbows on the windowsill, his palm resting on his smooth chin. "When I first met that child at the pet hospital, I had a special liking for him. I'm glad I intervened, otherwise I don't know how long that child would have suffered."

Lu Feng said softly, "Thank you."

Su Ling looked at him sideways: "Given our relationship, why should I thank you? By the way, have you told Mom about this?"

If the old lady knew that she had a great-grandson, I wonder how happy she would be?

Lu Feng said: "Not yet."

Su Ling blinked. "Why didn't you tell her earlier?"

"I'm afraid she'll worry."

"Too--"

After all, the old lady is old, and seeing the child being abused, she might worry too much and her body might not be able to bear it.

Su Ling tapped the wooden windowsill with his fingers a few times and asked hesitantly, "Do you think... Mom will agree to let us take care of the child?"

Seeing his hesitation, Lu Feng held his anxious hand. "I will convince her."

Su Ling frowned: "My eldest brother has been dead for many years. My mother must love little Fangqi very much. I can't bear to see her sad."

Lu Feng said: "We can go back to our ancestral home and take care of him nearby."

"No!" Su Ling pointed to the fields and villages in the distance. "I'm still needed here."

Nothing should be abandoned halfway. The poverty alleviation plan of Shixi Village has just started. If he leaves, how disappointed will the villagers be?

"Besides, I like it here and don't want to leave." Su Ling raised his head slightly and relaxed his brows.

Life in the countryside is fulfilling and comfortable. Being close to nature, he feels peaceful. Living here, he is happy every day.

Li Feng hugged him from behind and rubbed his cheek affectionately. "Let the child choose for himself."

Leaning in the man's broad and warm embrace, Su Ling's heart was filled with dependence. "That's fine. You can't force things."

Ru Feng kissed his forehead.

Su Ling closed his eyes slightly, enjoying the quiet moment. After a while, he asked in a low voice: "I have never dared to ask, how did my eldest brother... die?"

Suddenly, he felt the arms around him tighten a little.

"Lufeng?" He was confused.

"Accident." Lu Feng rested his chin on his shoulder and closed his eyes slightly.

The two of them were very close, and Su Ling could smell the faint cold fragrance on him.

"What accident?" he asked. "May I know?"

He is not a wooden man, so how could he not notice something strange about the man?

Rufeng was silent.

Su Ling was very patient. "We are a couple, the closest people in the world, and we should trust each other."

Since their last in-depth discussion, Lu Feng's sullen personality has lessened a bit and he no longer keeps things to himself. Although he still occasionally makes the same mistake, as long as you ask him a few more times, he will answer honestly.

Lu Feng raised his head from his shoulder, slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze was cold.

"It was murder."

"ah?"

Su Ling's body trembled, his face full of shock.

"Murder?"

He could never have imagined that the truth behind his elder brother's so-called accidental death was so unexpected.

"Have you found out who the murderer is?" Su Ling placed his hand on the back of Lu Feng's cold hand.

"No." Lu Feng's dark eyes were deep and chilling. "The murderer created a perfect car accident. My brother and the driver died on the spot."

Su Ling suddenly felt a chill running up from the soles of her feet. She turned around, faced the man, and hugged him tightly.

"The truth will be revealed and the murderer will not go unpunished."

"Of course." Lu Feng said, "Once we have collected enough evidence, we will bring the murderer to justice."

Su Ling patted him on the back. "Was your car accident in Country L also man-made?"

Since the murderer could create a perfect car accident, he could definitely create a second one. From the video that Lin Zhou sent him, there was no sign of human intervention in the scene of Lu Feng's car accident.

"Yes." Lu Feng did not deny.

Su Ling's body trembled uncontrollably. "Fortunately... you are safe."

Every time he thought about how he had traveled overseas for his illness and was almost hit by a car, his heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife.

"Don't worry, baby." Lu Feng comforted gently.

"You have to be well." Su Ling's eyes were moist, "I will be fine too, and we will grow old together."

Lu Feng kissed his lips, and Su Ling couldn't help but open his mouth. The two kissed each other so passionately that a shrill cell phone ringtone suddenly rang out.

"Um...phone number..." Su Ling grabbed Lu Feng's collar and leaned back.

Lu Feng's intention was not yet over, and he parted his lips and breathed slightly.

The cell phone kept ringing. Su Ling had no choice but to take it out from his trouser pocket.

The caller ID showed an unfamiliar landline number with the area code of City S. He answered the call suspiciously and asked politely, "Hello, who are you?"

"Is this Mr. Su? This is the Civil Affairs Bureau of S City. You and Mr. Luo applied for a divorce half a month ago. You can come and get the marriage certificate today."

"Ah?" Su Ling suddenly came to his senses and patted his head, "Sorry, I forgot!"

Time flies by so fast!

He went to Country L with Lu Feng for treatment for a week. After returning home, he was busy with Xiao Fangqi's affairs, and unknowingly another seven days had passed. He had completely forgotten about the divorce. If the Civil Affairs Bureau hadn't called him, he wouldn't have even thought about it.

"Then let me remind you that you must go to the Civil Affairs Bureau together to get your divorce certificate today. If you miss the deadline, you will have to reapply." The staff member said in a businesslike manner.

"This..." Su Ling looked at Lu Feng, his mind was a mess.

Lu Feng took the phone and said calmly, "Sorry, we are not getting divorced."

Su Ling opened his mouth, trying to snatch the phone back, but Lu Feng quickly leaned aside and continued, "Thank you for your notification. I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Okay, then I wish you a happy marriage." The staff member hung up the phone.

Rui Feng returned the phone to Su Ling, who grabbed it and said anxiously, "We have to leave. Have you forgotten your promise?"

The time is almost up. If Lu Feng fails to fulfill his promise, he will have to give up his position as the helmsman of the Lu Group!

"Silly." Lu Feng smiled.

"You can still laugh!" Su Ling glared at the man.

Li Feng wiped his lips with his thumb. "We have a child."

"Child?" Su Ling's short-circuited brain finally connected, "Yes, we have Xiao Fangqi!"

Xiao Fangqi is the eldest brother's grandson and the legitimate heir of the Lu family!

"But..." Su Ling still had some concerns, "We are Xiao Fangqi's great uncles."

He originally wanted to adopt little Fangqi and love him as his son, but his social status was there and he couldn't mess around.

"It's the same as having a grandson even if you don't have a son." Lu Feng said.

Su Ling's eyebrows were knotted. He felt something was wrong.

He is not even a father, but has been promoted directly to a grandfather!
