Chapter 154

[December 22, my body is getting weaker and weaker. Sometimes I fall asleep while sitting and don’t even know it. When I wake up, I feel dazed for a long time. I have to think for a while before I can remember what I was doing. I am old, really old.]

[January 1, it is the New Year again. Lingling, happy New Year. Smile. Grandpa will be fine.]

[January 19, Qiu said he wanted to take me back. I think it is unnecessary. It is not a problem of medical conditions. I know my body. Going back will not change anything. People will always reach the end of their lives. It is hard for her. She has worked so hard for these 16 years. 】

【February 4th, Lingling hasn’t been sick for more than five years. She is very smart and sensible. She will protect herself. Even without me, she will be fine. But with that kind of body, she probably won’t be able to get married in the future... I don’t know if she will regret it...】

【February 6th, Lingling, Qiu, goodbye. 】

The notebook stayed on this page for a long time.

Click.

A tear suddenly fell, soaking a round wetness on the white paper.

The room was very quiet, Xiang Bie looked at the girl beside him silently.

Probably noticing his gaze, the girl sniffed, and then quickly turned to the next page.

The next page, blank.

The next page, blank.

The rest, all blank.

Mu Ling turned back and saw that the date on that page was February 6th.

Grandpa passed away on February 8th.

Mu Ling still remembers that spring, it was very cold...

"Plop."

"Plop."

"Plop."

More tears fell.

Xiang Bie frowned, took the notebook away, and then held Mu Ling's face.

The girl's eyes and nose were red from crying. Xiang Bie wiped her tears, but they wouldn't be wiped away.

He sighed and slowly held her in his arms.

Mu Ling grabbed the clothes on both sides of the man's body, she buried her whole face in his shoulders, and her silent tears turned into light sobs, which gradually became louder and louder.

Xiang Bie supported the back of her head with one hand and patted her back with the other hand, silently comforting her.

Suddenly, Xiang Bie felt a little uncomfortable.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his black pupils turned into ice blue. He

lowered his eyes to look at the girl in his arms. Her arms were completely covered by her sleeves, but even if he couldn't see what was inside her sleeves, he knew that her scales had appeared again. Just like what was written in the record book, she would get sick when she was emotional. He let out a light breath and said nothing, but continued to hold her.

Time passed by minute by minute, until ten minutes later, the crying became quieter.

Mu Ling came out of Xiang Ge's arms. She sobbed twice and wiped her face with her sleeves.

She wiped it in a mess, and Xiang Bie raised his hand to push a few strands of her wet hair away from her face.

"I'm fine." She said in a muffled voice. Xiang Bie

said "hmm".

Mu Ling took the book again, she closed it with care, stroked the cover, and then said: "This is the first time I have seen this book today. Grandpa's relics are not many, I packed them all myself, I can be 100% sure that this book was definitely not at home before, it is here now, someone put it in recently."

After sniffing, she said: "The key has always been with me, which means that Grandpa had decided long ago that this book would be shown to me sooner or later, but after he passed away, I did not inherit this book, so who took the book away at that time, and who put it in now? When did he put it there, did he know in advance that I would come back?"

"If so, why did he predict that I would come back? I came back because of Harvest, so tracing back, was Harvest's visit to Piccolo Zoo also arranged by someone? Just to let me meet him."

"The first batch of ten war beasts for the War Beast Nursery were selected by me and the employees. If Harvest was arranged to come in, then there must be a traitor among my employees."

"It's not accurate to say that he is a traitor. He has this notebook, so he must have read the contents. You can't read it without a key. This toy lock can be pried open with a paper clip. If he has read it and knows my life experience, but he didn't come to arrest me, it means he has no ill intentions towards me. He used this roundabout way to let me know my past. There must be a reason. Why did he tell me these four years after my grandfather passed away? Why not four years ago? Was it because I was too young at the time? I'm grown up now."

"If he is still willing to wait for me to grow up and become independent, it means that he cares about me. Besides grandpa, who else would care about me? Only one person, my aunt. Only my aunt knows of my existence and has been supporting grandpa for the past 20 years. But my aunt has passed away. Who else could it be? Would it be other members of the Bai family? The last time I saw my cousin Bai Su, he invited me home for dinner. So the Bai family also knows about me and accepts me. Is that right?" The probability of them is very high. "

Speaking of this, Mu Ling raised her head again, and she scanned the whole room with her red eyes: "Is there surveillance here? Is someone watching my reaction now? Or..."

She suddenly stood up, walked to the window, and looked outside: "Is he near me? Is he peeking here from somewhere?"

Perhaps it was because she received too much information at once. After crying, Mu Ling quickly entered a state of thinking and alert.

She quickly analyzed the situation in front of her, and kept observing, not missing any corner of the room.

Xiang Bie saw that she was too nervous, stood up and pulled her, let her sit down, and said: "Let me check."

As he said, he carefully observed every position in the room, and even turned up the mattress to take a look.

Half an hour later, he patted the dust off his hands and shook his head at Mu Ling.

Mu Ling walked to the window again and looked outside: "There is no surveillance in the house, which means that the other party does not want to invade my privacy. This is indeed a person who loves me, but he must make sure of my movements, so he is nearby, at least his people are nearby, or, his people have followed me from the God King Planet back to Planet 877."

Xiang Bie shook his head: "The latter is impossible. The Federation Army has been secretly protecting you. If someone follows you, they will know."

Mu Ling was stunned.

Xiang Bie said, "The federal army must be worried because you didn't bring Lao Zhou and the others with you. Someone has been following us since we left the house."

Mu Ling nodded and understood, "So, he is waiting for me on Planet 877..."

At this point, Mu Ling was silent for a moment, and then began to pack her things.

She locked the notebook and put it back in her bag, closed all the windows, locked the door, and pulled Xiang Bie out again.

Halfway through the walk, Mu Ling stopped again, turned to look at Xiang Bie, and asked, "Brother Xiang, do I look like I've been crying?"

It was a little dark here, with only a dim street light next to it, dimly illuminating the ground.

Xiang Bie held up her face, combed her hair for her, and said, "Smile again, and you'll feel better."

Mu Ling forced a smile, turned around, and continued walking forward.

Soon, they returned to the food stalls they had just met. Someone saw them coming back and raised their hands to say hello again.

Mu Ling smiled and said to the owner of a stall: "Boss, two plates of fried skewers and two bottles of Coke."

Then, she walked to a table of customers in the store and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, can we sit down?" Brother Liu

was having supper with his friends. He also knew Mu Ling. After all, they were old neighbors. Seeing that Mu Ling wanted to share the table, he was naturally happy: "Come on, come on, sit down."

After Mu Ling sat down, she pulled Xiang Bie next to her.

After Xiang Bie also sat down, Mu Ling took the Coke sent by the boss and started a conversation with Brother Liu: "Brother Liu, what are you doing now? Are you still a real estate agent?"

-

Six o'clock in the morning.

After waking up from the bed, the old woman dragged her unsteady legs and slowly moved to the wheelchair.

Because the whole house was barrier-free, the wheelchair could go anywhere. She went to the bathroom to wash up first, then went to the kitchen, took breakfast out of the refrigerator, put it in the oven to heat it up, and then she turned on the computer and started reading the news.

After reading the news for a while, suddenly, the doorbell rang outside the door.

The old woman was startled, turned on the computer, and looked outside through the video doorbell.

The doorbell was blocked, and there was only darkness in the camera.

"Huh?"

The person who blocked the doorbell obviously had bad intentions. Raising her eyebrows, the old woman turned on the video doorbell of the house opposite.

Unexpectedly, the house opposite was also hers.

Through the surveillance on the opposite side, she finally saw the situation outside the door. Outside her door, there was a man and a woman standing at this time. They were two very young men and women. Just looking at the outline, they were very familiar.

The old woman: "..."

How did they find me?

"Ding Dong."

The doorbell rang again. The old woman didn't say anything, just looked at the surveillance screen.

The two young people knocked on the door for a long time, and seeing that there was no movement inside, they began to look at each other.

Suddenly, the stern young man turned his head abruptly, his cold eyes looking accurately at the door of the house behind him, and said, "There are surveillance cameras there too."

The girl turned her head and saw that there were indeed surveillance cameras, so she frowned and said, "What a wrong decision, he knows it's us."

Having said that, the girl directly let go of the hand blocking the video doorbell and said to the camera, "Hello, since you asked me to come back, let's meet each other. You don't have to pretend that you are not there. I heard that you are not mobile, so you should not go out so early, right?"

The old woman said nothing, but her brows were tightly wrinkled.

The girl waited for a while and then said, "You may find it strange that I came here. You may not know that our 877 planet is really small, and the old town is even smaller. I have lived here for 20 years and I know every neighbor here. I have a neighbor named Brother Liu, who is a real estate agent. I told him that I wanted to sell my grandfather's old house and asked him how the market was in the past six months. I just wanted to ask him if there were any strangers renting or buying houses here recently, but he specifically mentioned that six months ago, when I was Not long after I left, a big customer came here and bought two buildings at once. "

The girl smiled and said, "Although you are a recluse, you are very generous. In addition, your house has been renovated and the whole house is barrier-free. This is a big renovation. People living in the old city rarely do such luxurious renovations. So it is no secret where you live. You can find out by asking around. Of course, others probably won't be able to find out, but I'm different. I grew up under everyone's eyes, and no one here will be on guard against me."

"Ding Dong."

The girl pressed the doorbell again, her tone gentle but firm: "So, don't struggle, open the door, you are already surrounded by us, there is no need to resist in vain."

In the room.

The old woman: "…………"

Taking a deep breath, the old woman's face became stern.

Bai Huanting, you have done so many bad things!

Look at the granddaughter you raised, she is just like you!

I hate academic masters the most!
