After Ling Junye finished speaking, he got up and left.
Upon hearing this, Yang Sujun slammed his fist on the table, the shackles rattling incessantly. His eyes were bulging with anger as he screamed frantically, "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible—"
Have you lived half your life in a lie?
Was he fooled by the Ding family?
Or perhaps, the Ding family was simply protecting a non-existent, worthless glass bead from the very beginning.
Hahaha, hahaha.
That's really interesting.
His whole life was a joke.
As he was being paraded through the streets, he saw Xu Manzhi, who had come to see him off, with a murky glass bead hanging around her neck.
It was like an irony, like a grenade that exploded in his heart.
It's all so ridiculous.
He lost too thoroughly, far too completely.
If there is an afterlife, I will never be a member of the Xu family again!
Night had fallen.
Ling Junye dragged his tired body home, exhaled a deep breath, and the past events flashed before his eyes. Suddenly, he felt that everything had become meaningless.
Perhaps he's a jinx; every time he meets a girl he loves, he causes her unseen harm because of him.
Leaving is probably the only solution.
"Haha, Aunt Wen, you're so funny. You've raised Jiaojiao so well. She's just as well-behaved and sensible as my Lili."
The once dark courtyard is now lit up with lights everywhere.
He heard a string of silvery laughter, and a radiant flower instantly bloomed in his heart.
Her eyebrows and eyes unconsciously curled up.
He pushed open the door with light steps, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly stopped, and the image of Yang Li'e's dejected appearance swept through his mind.
He is unlucky.
Just as I was about to turn around, a voice called out from behind: "What, we're at your doorstep? Is there anything else that can't be done tomorrow?"
Ling Junye stood ramrod straight, his heart pounding.
He didn't dare turn around.
She was perfectly fine before, but because of him, Ye Qiqi, who was impersonating Jiang Ning, scratched her face. I wonder if her face has healed yet...
"Last time, you brought fruit to the hospital, why did you leave without saying a word?"
The girl's clear voice reached my ears from behind.
He suddenly turned around, and under the bright lights, Ye Lan's beautiful big eyes were completely devoid of the brashness and stubbornness he had shown when they first met.
At this moment, she was as gentle as water, her hands clasped in front of her, her dark eyes sparkling like two torches burning in his heart.
Wow.
His face turned as red as a branding iron.
A hint of affectation was written on his face, and he acted coy like a young girl: "No, no, I had something urgent to attend to, that's why I left."
That's great.
My sister-in-law said there would be no scars. The girl is still so beautiful, without the slightest impact, except that she is a little thinner.
He sighed inwardly.
Such a beautiful girl, what kind of man could possibly win her heart...?
"Oh my, how long are you going to chat at the door? Come inside and have dinner. I've already told Xiao Lan that she'll have dinner at my house every night from now on, and she agreed," Wen Jin said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, big brother, my sister is going to be my tutor. She has applied for nursing and has been selected by the doctors at the hospital."
Ling Jiaojiao poked her head out, a mischievous grin on her face.
"Really? Really?" Ling Junye looked at Ye Lan with anticipation.
Ye Lan smiled softly, her lips pursed.
She had never been looked at with such a direct and passionate gaze by a man before, and a little pink bubble was rising in her heart, her cheeks turning red all the way to the roots of her neck.
"Yes. You wouldn't... not welcome me, would you?"
"He dares!"
"Big brother, you mustn't."
Before Ling Junye could even speak, he was betrayed by the two women in his family.
He rubbed his forehead.
"Where is it said that they refuse or are not welcome? I am—"
"Welcome, I know, sister-in-law. Look, my brother's face is all red, like a pig's liver. It's the first time I've ever seen that."
Ling Jiaojiao ripped through the veil of pretense between the adults.
Instantly, the two young people felt their feet burning and their cheeks burning red. Ling Junye covered Ling Jiaojiao's mouth and pretended to scold, "What are you yelling about? I haven't said anything yet."
Ling Jiaojiao broke free without hesitation.
She exclaimed, "Then tell your sister! Last night, when I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I heard you calling my name in your dream, calling 'Lanlan' over and over again. I heard it all."
Rumble.
Thunder rumbled down from the sky.
Ling Jun wanted to find a hole to crawl into for the first time.
He never expected that his little secret would be exposed by his own sister.
He was about to explain and save face when Ye Lan, her cheeks flushed and her voice hot, asked, "Can you tell me yourself?"
Seeing this, Wen Jin grabbed Ling Jiaojiao and ran into the house.
Ling Jiaojiao hadn't figured out what was going on, but her mother had covered her mouth tightly, so she couldn't speak.
The two people left in the yard would look at the sky, scratch their heads, and glance at each other sideways.
After waiting for a while in the dead of night, seeing that she had already spoken, he still didn't say anything directly. A wave of embarrassment washed over him, and he felt a little like running away.
Girls are easily embarrassed.
She couldn't take it anymore.
Just as she turned around, her arm was grabbed by someone behind her.
"Comrade Yelan, can we...can we date? I like you, and I want to marry you and have children..." Ling Junye blurted out.
A few days ago, my sister-in-law said that if you don't hurry up, Xiao Ba has several suitors who are already talking about marriage with Ye Ting.
I didn't care at the time.
But if you don't even talk about it or try, how will you know you don't have a chance?
"It's just that I'm a jinx, always bringing harm to those around me. I don't know if you'll mind my reputation for bringing bad luck to wives..." He finished speaking and then became lost in thought.
