Chapter 355 Outsiders will feel sorry for him

Li Xiong found that he couldn't quite understand his son.

But he said nothing.

He just nodded, "Okay, Dad will do it for you."

"Today the neighbor sent me a fish. It was quite fresh. Dad fried it for you?"

Li Yun didn't like eating fish before.

Li Yun paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."

It’s not that he doesn’t like fish, he just hates that he can’t taste it.

It looked like something with good color, aroma and taste, but when he put it into his mouth, it felt like he was chewing cotton.

He couldn't accept himself being unable to appreciate the normal ups and downs of life.

So over time, he stopped eating fish.

Li Xiong looked at his son's thin cheeks.

Li Yun has been in poor health since childhood and looks particularly thin.

Especially the face, which is so sunken.

Li Xiong sighed in his heart but said nothing.

He suddenly asked, "Would you like to drink something sweet? There's a new milk tea shop in a shopping mall not far from our home. You young people should like this."

But Li Yun never dared to drink.

He seldom drinks these things, and sometimes he doesn't even look like a young man.

However——

Li Xiong's gaze paused. Li Yun's body was originally different from that of young people.

Li Xiong feels guilty towards his son.

So he always wants to make up for the other party in other ways.

Li Yun lowered his eyes and was unusually silent.

Li Xiong just wanted to say that it was okay if he didn’t want to drink, as everyone’s taste was different.

Not every young person likes to drink milk tea and desserts.

But before he could finish his words, Li Yun raised his head and said, "Then bring me a cup of Yangzhi Ganlu. Thank you, Dad."

He doesn't like milk tea, but occasionally he will try a cup of Yangzhi Ganlu.

The girl he likes loves to drink this.

Li Xiong gave him a reproachful look and said, "Why are you being so polite to your father, kid?"

Li Xiong always felt that something had changed about Li Yun this time.

But he could never put it into words specifically.

But after all, he was the son he had raised for so many years, so he could still notice the subtle changes in him.

Li Xiong wondered if something had happened recently.

But he didn't ask again.

He understood Li Yun's character; this kid liked to keep everything to himself.

Unless he is willing to speak out, no one can ask.

This is what sickly children are like: they are sensitive and think carefully.

Li Xiong didn't say anything, but went downstairs to buy some Yangzhi Ganlu for Li Yun.

Li Yun looked at his back and remained silent for a long time.

He stared at the entrance and smiled after a while, but there was a hint of sarcasm and bitterness between his brows.

If Li Xiong was really so cruel that he didn't care about his life or death, and if the other party had never shown him any kindness since he was a child, he might always be a little cruel.

But Li Xiong borrowed his life span and tried his best to make up for him emotionally and in life.

Sometimes, he would rather Li Xiong was a little harder on him.

At least he won't be so painful when he knows the truth.

Li Xiong came back after buying Yangzhi Ganlu, put the things on the table for him, and went to the kitchen to cook.

Li Yun chewed slowly, and his fingers tightened slightly when he felt the taste on the tip of his tongue.

When he had not lost his sense of taste and smell, he envied himself for being able to run and jump.

Later, when his nose and throat started to hurt every time he breathed, he felt that he was fine before.

At least I can still smell it, so nothing I eat tastes like wax.

Every time his health deteriorated, he would envy himself for not being in such a bad condition at that time.

The wish he made every year on his birthday or New Year was not to get rich.

But good health.

What’s funny is that Li Xiong always said that he hoped he was in good health.

But why is his body unhealthy?

Doesn’t Li Xiong know this better than anyone else?

Li Yun held the chopsticks tightly in his hand. It was impossible to say that he had no hatred or resentment towards Li Xiong.

How could he not hate it?

Over the past twenty years, he had almost forgotten what it felt like to be healthy.

Li Xiong noticed that Li Yun was not in a good state and was about to ask his son if he was unhappy.

The cell phone suddenly rang.

He looked down, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately stood up and said to Li Yun: "Ah Yun, Dad has to go out for something. Is it okay for you to be alone at home today?"

Li Yun frowned. It would be better if Li Xiong went out, which would make it more convenient for him to do things.

But he still put down his chopsticks and asked casually, "What happened?"

Li Xiong's face was solemn, and he couldn't stop crying with anxiety.

"Well, one of your relatives is in trouble. Dad will go check it out first. You are alone at home. If you need any help, just knock on the door of your neighbor."

In fact, it was Liu Ping who sent him a WeChat message, telling him that her son had been in a car accident and she didn’t know how he was doing now, so he wanted to go over and take a look.

"Um."

Li Yun nodded, without any doubt, and said with a smile: "Then go ahead, I will take good care of myself."

Li Xiong felt guilty, but was more worried about his younger son's injury, so he just patted him on the shoulder and left.

Li Yun said nothing. He just finished the food on the table and cleaned up the dishes.

Half an hour later, a notification popped up on his phone.

Li Yun clicked on it and found that it was Ah Hao who sent him a WeChat message.

[Ah Hao: Ah Yun, Master Huo said that you don’t have to wait until late at night. You can go to the backyard now to dig out the things and put them in the stove to burn.]

Li Yun was stunned and asked why.

[Ah Hao: It was the aunt surnamed Liu. She was afraid that you might get caught while digging tonight, so she lied to your father and said that her son had been in a car accident and took your father away.]

[Ah Hao: Take this opportunity to go to the backyard and grab your life back!]

Li Yun's mind was in a state of confusion. He stared at his phone for a long time. Finally, he sighed and said thank you silently.

He found some tools at home, ran to the backyard, found the locust tree that Huo Ning had mentioned before, and started digging at the location she had mentioned.

After digging for a while, Li Yun indeed saw a black corner.

Instead of digging further, he loosened the soil and brought it out.

He did as Huo Ning said, shook off the dirt on it, and threw it into the stove with an expressionless face.

Huo Ning said before that no matter what, he couldn't open it.

But in fact, whether she said this or not, he would not be curious about what was inside.

There was a crackling sound coming from the stove, thick black smoke slowly drifted down, and a foul, unpleasant smell filled the entire space.

When the things inside were burned clean, the foul stench disappeared out of nowhere, and Li Yun inexplicably felt a warm current flowing into his body.

He was a little dazed, staring at his hands in a daze.

Li Yun lowered his eyes, calmly packed up everything in the house, turned around and walked out.
