Chapter 998 As Long as He Lives
Ling Sheng made a face at her, snorted, and turned away from looking at her.
It wasn't until the car left the cemetery that Ling Sheng asked, "Second uncle, did the eldest lady of the Dongfang family really die because of love?"
Yan Yuanfei shook his head and sighed in a deep voice: "How can a person die so easily because of lovesickness or love? Your second aunt said that she has been weak since she was a child and can stay in bed for half a month if she catches a cold."
From the lines of her words, there was no trace of sadness, only her restrained love for that man. She was not a sentimental person, so how could she linger on the sickbed because of this.
"Oh!" Ling Sheng nodded. It turned out that she was a beauty like Sister Lin, and she didn't die just because of love.
This incident was set up by the author from beginning to end, making people in the Dongfang family hate their second uncle and Aunt Ruoshui, and letting the world use their morality to suppress them.
"When are you going to go there? After I get off the car, I will ask Jiang Pei to see you off."
"good."
"Did Ayan tell you when he would return to China?"
"Let's go early tomorrow morning!"
After Ling Sheng finished speaking, she suddenly thought that before going to bed, he said he would pick her up the next day and take her to the audition. He was a big liar. He called her again in the morning and said that he had something urgent to do and flew abroad.
"Second uncle, do you have anything to do with him?"
"It's nothing."
"Second uncle, are you really not going to come with me? You can wait in the car and watch from a distance. Don't get close."
"If you don't go, she will find out."
After Yan Yuanfei got off the car, Jiang Pei took Ling Sheng directly to Shuiyue Temple.
After Wen Ruoshui read the contents of the diary, he didn't speak for a long time. He only stared blankly at the line of words on the last page, his eyes red and scary.
Ling Sheng was very quiet and stayed by her side. The people around her didn't speak, so she didn't dare to speak either.
In the spring afternoon, the sun was very bright and the breeze was gentle, but the atmosphere around me was so solemn that it was difficult to breathe.
until.
"He asked you to deliver it?" Wen Ruoshui looked up at Ling Sheng.
Ling Sheng nodded: "It's not convenient for Second Miss Dongfang to come over, so she asked me to come over. Aunt Ruoshui, if you have anything you want to say, I can convey it on your behalf."
Dongfang Meng must be embarrassed to come here. After all, she has done a lot of excessive things before, and ended up misunderstanding someone. This hatred lasted for more than 20 years. In the end, the two of them were together because her sister agreed and arranged it. .
"Shengsheng." Wen Ruoshui's face was more solemn than ever before, and she raised her lips in self-mockery with a bitter smile: "You know, I'm not talking about her, I'm talking about him."
Ling Sheng's heartbeat suddenly stopped and she pretended to be stupid: "Who is it? Who are you talking about?"
"Him." Wen Ruoshui's voice was hoarse and choked: "Shengsheng, I'm talking about your second uncle. Don't you have a good relationship with him?"
Ling Sheng was panicking in her heart, but on the surface she was calm: "Auntie, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Didn't the second uncle..."
Do you understand?
Or are you lying to her?
Logically speaking, she couldn't know!
Dongfang Meng has sworn that she will never tell anyone that her second uncle is still alive!
"Shengsheng." Wen Ruoshui suddenly grabbed her arm, her eyes filled with broken tears, and she was so choked that she couldn't speak: "I beg you, let me take a look at him, just one look!"
She never thought that one day it would be like this. She knew that he was still alive, but he was now living in the same space as her, breathing the same air.
But she was so humble that even seeing him once was a luxury. She was so humble that she knew it was his fault, that he had hidden it from her and deceived him, but she couldn't bear to scold him.
He is already like that. The man who once supported her has become so weak that he has to sit in a wheelchair and rely on the help of others to live.
On Ling Sheng's side, she couldn't hold back her tears at all. She was feeling flustered and sore. Before she could speak, her nose was blocked: "I..."
"You don't have to hide it from me. I'm not stupid. I know everything. He's back. How could I, a living person, not feel anything?" Wen Ruoshui tried hard to control his emotions, with humble prayers in his eyes: "Shengsheng , Good boy, I won’t tell anyone else, only the two of us know.”
"Don't cry." Ling Sheng wiped her tears distressedly: "Auntie, don't cry. I promise, can't I promise you?"
They all thought she didn't know, and thought she was hiding it well, but Aunt Ruoshui was the second uncle's favorite person, and she loved him so much. How could two people who loved each other not even notice that he came to their side? ?
She suddenly remembered that on Valentine's Day, her second uncle was cooking for her at Gu's house. During the meal, she seemed to have accidentally remarked that the food had the taste of his second uncle, which frightened everyone at the table.
Sure enough, she had known it for a long time and felt it even earlier than Valentine's Day.
"On New Year's Eve, I watched the Spring Festival Gala with my aunt and grandma. Lao Wu was with me. When he left, I went out to give him something and took a look from a distance." Wen Ruoshui's eyes were red: "Shengsheng, I How can I not recognize him? No matter what he looks like, how can he hide it from my eyes?"
Ling Sheng held her hand and gave her silent support and comfort. He could only feel the warmth of her hand, which felt cold to the heart.
"On Valentine's Day, he had an attack in the study. I heard his voice. Your mother thought I didn't know. I know, Shengsheng, how could I not know!" Wen Ruoshui looked at her: "You don't know, your second uncle is the most tolerant. When he visited abroad, he was assassinated and shot twice. The conditions were harsh and there was no anesthesia. When the bullets were removed, he didn't make a sound."
What kind of pain tortured him like that, making him, who was always the most tolerant, unable to help but cry out in pain?
"Then why don't you confront them." Ling Sheng finished: "You know everything, why don't you get angry and scold them? They all lied to you, and I am also an accomplice. You scold me."
"I respect his decision." Wen Ruoshui saw that the little girl was crying more fiercely than her, gently wiped her tears, and comforted her in return: "I have figured it out. As long as he is still alive, as long as I still know that he is still alive, when I look up at the sky, he can also see the same sky as me, and I will be at ease."
What will happen if I confront them? Scold them to vent, and ask why he didn't want to see her even though he was alive, and didn't want her to know?
"My dad and the others just found out before the New Year, and they didn't know that my second uncle was alive." Ling Sheng sniffed and half-knelt in front of her: "Really, my dad, my mom, and my uncle didn't know that my second uncle was alive."
After they found out, they didn't blame him or hate him, but more of a sense of self-blame, heartache, and powerlessness. Seeing him in so much pain, they were powerless.
Good night muah
