Chapter 210 Why are you here?
Ling Ye was still a young man, so he didn't think about things that much when he was thinking. But now, after hearing Fang Lanxin say this, he felt enlightened.
He looked at Fang Lanxin and suddenly smiled: "Madam, now that you mention it, I suddenly feel like I'm really doing something very meaningful!"
"You are doing something very meaningful."
"I am proud of you, I am proud of you."
Fang Lanxin gently touched Ling Ye's cheek.
She lay on Ling Ye's lap, quietly watching him. Before long, her eyelids began to droop, and she drifted off to sleep.
This was also the first time Ling Ye had been able to look at Fang Lanxin so quietly at such close range.
Even though he knew long ago that Fang Lanxin was already forty years old, he was still deceived by her face. She was extremely well-maintained and looked to be only around thirty years old.
Ling Ye lowered his head and quietly watched Fang Lanxin, watching her chest rise and fall rhythmically, while his own heartbeat became erratic.
Almost instinctively, Ling Ye reached out his hand, wanting to touch Fang Lanxin's cheek. In fact, he had had this urge for a long time and wanted to do it, but he just hadn't found the opportunity.
Now, the person was lying quietly in his arms, and Ling Ye's hand was somewhat out of control, slowly reaching towards Fang Lanxin's face.
"What are you doing!"
Huo Siya's voice boomed in the living room, instantly waking Fang Lanxin, who had been sleeping with her eyes closed. Almost instinctively, she grabbed Ling Ye's wrist and clung to him, looking warily at Huo Siya at the door.
After seeing Huo Siya's face clearly, Fang Lanxin finally realized what was going on. Her eyebrows furrowed tightly, and she asked somewhat unhappily, "Why are you here?"
"Mom, do you know what this person was about to do?"
"How could you be with such a hoodlum? Don't you like the one from the Guan family?"
"Get out of here!"
Huo Siya rushed over, pointed at Ling Ye's nose, and started cursing.
Ling Ye felt somewhat guilty about his actions just now. He tilted his head and glanced at Fang Lanxin before getting up to leave.
At this moment, Fang Lanxin grabbed Ling Ye's hand and looked at Huo Siya with displeasure: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Mother, I'm not talking nonsense, this person has ill intentions towards you!"
"Mom, I saw it with my own eyes, he...he tried to touch you!"
"I don't!"
Ling Ye, who had been silent all along, finally started to get anxious.
Even if he wanted to take action but didn't, he definitely can't take the blame for this!
"I saw it with my own eyes and you still dare to deny it? You really are a low-level thug with no manners."
"I think you're just used to sneaking around, shameless!"
Huo Siya strode forward and shoved Ling Ye hard.
Ling Ye is not a good-tempered person. If Huo Siya were not Fang Lanxin's daughter, he would have fought back from the very beginning.
Now, Ling Ye had reached his limit. He looked coldly at Huo Siya: "I may have come from a lowly background, but so what? Don't you like this kind of scumbag? You've made a mess of yourself and now your wife has to take over. How noble are you!"
"What did you say!"
"You bastard, how dare you talk to me like that!"
"court death!"
Huo Siya was hit where it hurt, and her expression immediately changed. She raised her hand and slapped him hard across the face.
Fang Lanxin was faster, grabbing Huo Siya's wrist, frowning, and looking at her with displeasure: "Is this your upbringing?"
"Mom! You...you're crazy!"
Didn't you hear what he just said about me?
"Are you even my biological mother?!"
Huo Siya's hand froze in mid-air as she stared at Fang Lanxin in disbelief.
However, Fang Lanxin remained calm and coldly said, "Isn't what he said true? You did such a thing before, so you should have known the consequences, and you should have been prepared to bear all of this, shouldn't you?"
Huo Siya couldn't listen to any of that right now. All she wanted to know was why Fang Lanxin was protecting such a nobody.
Meeting Fang Lanxin's icy gaze, Huo Siya was completely enraged. She flung Fang Lanxin away, pointed at the two of them, and cursed, "Fine, fine, Mother, remember this: today you chose him over us, don't regret it later!"
After saying this, Huo Siya turned and left, slamming the door shut behind her as she went.
Seeing this, Lingye felt at a loss for the first time.
He stood there, unsure what to do with his hands and feet. The moment he noticed Fang Lanxin's gaze fixed on him, he almost instinctively apologized with guilt: "Madam, I'm sorry, I..."
"You did nothing wrong."
Fang Lanxin's voice remained calm, yet carried a unique softness and inclusiveness.
Ling Ye was stunned for a moment, then felt a pang of sadness in his heart.
From childhood to adulthood, he had caused countless troubles outside, but no one had ever told him that he had done nothing wrong.
Before this, no one cared about whether he was right or wrong; they only cared about the trouble he caused and would just hold him down and make him apologize.
Fang Lanxin was the first person to stand in his shoes and speak the truth.
Slowly, Ling Ye's eyes reddened slightly, and his nose began to sting.
He didn't want to cry in front of Fang Lanxin, so he hurriedly ran outside.
Even though he tried his best to control himself, tears still involuntarily streamed down his face. Fortunately, Fang Lanxin didn't see them.
Fang Lanxin didn't see Ling Ye's tears, but she did see the boy's grievances and vulnerability. Thinking that this child had to come out to make a living at such a young age, and must have suffered a lot of grievances in order to treat his mother's illness, she felt a pang of heartache for no reason.
Especially compared to her two children, Fang Lanxin felt that her sincerity was not even worth feeding to a dog!
Huo Siya rushed straight to Huo Qibang's office, grabbed him, and started yelling, "Brother, do you know what? Mom has gone mad! She's really gone mad! Having Guan Yu wasn't enough for her, she's also having a serious affair with Ling Ye! How could our mother have become like this!"
What are you saying?
Huo Zhenhong sat on the sofa with a cold face, looking at Huo Siya in disbelief. He couldn't believe that his daughter was saying the same things as her mother, nor could he believe that Fang Lanxin would do something so outrageous.
Huo Siya seemed to have been choked, slowly turning her head and seeing Huo Zhenhong sitting on the sofa behind her. She was dumbfounded and looked at Huo Qibang for help.
