Outside the school gate.
Jingxing watched Jingse walk away into the school and disappear from sight before turning his gaze away.
Let's go!
"yes!"
Soldier 1: Soldier 2, Soldier 2, Target has not appeared.
Soldier No. 2: No. 1, No. 1, the Major is here to escort his sister, not to date.
Soldier 1: Number 2, Number 2, the Major has an urgent mission tomorrow. If we don't see him now, when will we?
Soldier No. 2: No. 1, No. 1, shut your mouth and stop making death threats!
"Major! You haven't told Jing Se that you have a mission tomorrow."
"No need to say anything, it will only make her worry."
Would you like to see Ling Yun?
"What do you want to see her for?"
"I wonder if her living expenses are enough..." The voice trailed off.
Jing Xing said sternly, "You want to pay for her living expenses? Drive!"
The two soldiers shuddered and sped away.
Jingxing closed his eyes, concealing the turbulent emotions within them. Was he really that obvious?
Even his own soldiers know?
Why did you take it to heart after only meeting me twice?
That's not scientific!
It seems necessary to go back and check. He's leading the team on this mission, and he can't let his lack of self-control lead to a wrong decision that could harm the entire team.
...
Ling Yong hung up the phone, feeling rather sullen.
After a while.
He said, "Thank you, Fourth Grandfather! I...I'm going back now."
"Hey, go ahead! Your sister has had a hard life. Your mother is so biased. You're all grown up now and you understand things. Sigh!" The fourth grandfather didn't finish his sentence. Ling Yong was too young, and he didn't want to hurt him, but he was still quite angry.
Ling Yong blushed, bowed, and ran away.
He knew exactly where his mother was biased; she was favoring him the most. In the past, he had felt proud of it, but today, listening to his great-uncle's tone, he felt ashamed.
He's young, but he already knows what shame is.
The whole village knew that his mother wouldn't let his sister go to school, and he felt ashamed.
After leaving my great-uncle's house, it was already dark by the time we left.
As soon as I stepped inside, I heard Zhang Huixiang's loud voice.
As soon as he heard that, he knew that his father, Ling Xuefeng, had returned.
Judging from their voices, the two were clearly arguing.
He pulled his foot back from the doorway and silently squatted down against a wall. This home made him feel suffocated. He buried his face in his legs, but he couldn't block out the sounds coming from inside.
Inside the house.
Ling Xuefeng angrily slammed the chair down.
“Zhang Huixiang, have you no shame? Have you no shame? You have no shame, but I, Ling Xuefeng, still have face. You have disgraced the entire Ling family. You are so stingy that you even stoop to your own daughter. You are shameful.”
Zhang Huixiang was startled by the chair, but she was not afraid of Ling Xuefeng at all, and instead became more and more courageous.
"Ling Xuefeng, I'm the one who farms the land, I'm the one who runs the convenience store, I'm the one who raises our son. What have you done? You dare to criticize me? Besides eating and drinking outside and squandering all the money, what else can you do?"
Ling Xuefeng was hit where it hurt. He had been trying to do business outside, but it seemed like he had no luck in business all his life. He lost money no matter what he did, and so far he had accomplished nothing. Sometimes, creditors would even come to his door demanding that Zhang Huixiang repay the money. Because of this, he felt inferior to Zhang Huixiang and was always the one who could dominate him when they argued. But men have pride, and he couldn't bear to lose face when his words were contradicted.
“Zhang Huixiang, don’t give me that nonsense. Your brother’s daughter can go to school, but my Ling Xuefeng’s daughter can’t? Is it only your Zhang family that’s rich and my Ling family that’s poor? Today, she has to go to school whether she wants to or not.”
