Ling Qianfan walked a few steps to the bed and finally saw her father whom she hadn't seen for thirty years.

The moment her eyes fell on Ling Chengtai, she felt her nose sore and her heart trembled.

how come……

In her impression, Ling Chengtai's image has always been majestic, like a mountain.

Even though she was very angry about her father's behavior regarding the engagement, as she grew older, she did figure out and understand some things.

Her father was currently extremely weak, even skinny, which was not the state a cultivator should be in.

Suddenly, her eyes became moist.

"Forehead……"

Ling Chengtai was obviously a little excited, but no sound came out of his throat.

He looked at Ling Qianfan, but couldn't show anything too much. Even at this point, some thoughts in his mind were clear enough.

He not only has to protect the Ling family, but also has to protect his daughter in his own way...

"Qian Fan."

Ling Zhengqing shouted and felt a sore nose.

It has been thirty years, and only he himself knows how much his father misses Ling Qianfan.

Ling Qianfan calmed down and realized that Ling Zhengqing wanted her to call him "father".

However, this name sounded somewhat unfamiliar to her. She couldn't say it out loud even after it came to her lips several times.

"Humph!"

Ling Yunpeng snorted coldly and stepped aside.

He felt that his father was just a little soft-hearted before his death.

Even so, it is not enough to erase the far-reaching impact that Ling Qianfan's escape from marriage has on the Ling family!

In other words, even if the old man could open his mouth and forgive Ling Qianfan now, it would be meaningless!

"Second Uncle, let's... go outside first."

Ling Zhengqing stood up, ignored Ling Yunpeng, and looked at Ling Deyuan.

He knew in his heart that if he wanted everyone to leave the room, he would have to take the lead.

"This……"

Ling Deyuan hesitated a little and inadvertently exchanged glances with Ling Yunpeng.

Ling Zhengqing noticed something and his expression changed slightly. The old man hadn't passed away yet, but these people couldn't hold back anymore.

"Zhengqing, you...let an outsider look after your father. If something happens, you..."

Ling Deyuan finally spoke.

"enough!"

Ling Zhengqing finally exploded.

He tolerated it several times just to facilitate the reunion between his father and sister.

Of course, he has been well aware of his family's opinions of him for many years.

No matter what he did back then, he would feel indebted, but in the end, for Ling Qianfan, he chose to owe the Ling family.

It was precisely because of these reasons that he had been respectful and tolerant to his elders over the years...

"Everyone! Get out!"

Ling Zhengqing's eyes were as sharp as torches as he scanned the entire audience.

Ling Yunpeng's eyes narrowed, and after thinking for a while, he decided not to break up for the time being. It would be best if Ling Zhengqing continued like this, as that would be his chance!

He didn't think any more about it, glanced at his father, and then turned and left.

Seeing this, Ling Deyuan and others behind him also left the room. Ling Zhengqing followed at the end and closed the door.

The room was finally quiet, with only the faint breathing of Ling Chengtai.

The next second, his eyes finally turned red and he stretched out his trembling hand.

Ling Qianfan's heart moved and she held Ling Chengtai's hand. She also felt that her father had been suppressing his emotions.

"Qian...Fan..."

Ling Chengtai forced himself to shout, and his hand began to tremble even more. He hadn't called Ling Qianfan's name for nearly thirty years.

"You...what on earth is going on?"

Ling Qianfan held Ling Chengtai's hand tightly, and all the complaints in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"No...it's okay..."

Ling Chengtai finally stopped hiding his inner feelings and looked like an old man next door, looking at his daughter, a completely different person from before.

"It's good to be back..."

"Father……"

Finally, Ling Qianfan shouted out without any more ideological struggle.

Hearing this name, a smile suddenly broke out on Ling Chengtai's face. He stretched out his right hand again. Ling Qianfan realized something and hurriedly moved his face closer.

"It's me... As a father, I didn't do a good job."

Ling Chengtai's hand touched Ling Qianfan's face as he wished.

Swish!

Tears as big as beans rolled down Ling Qianfan's face.

She thought that with her personality, she would not be too moved even by this scene... But the facts proved that she was wrong...

Perhaps, at some time in the past, she had completely forgiven her father.

"No, father, it's... it's me..."

Ling Qianfan choked up.

At this moment, she was no longer the hot-tempered and murderous Ling Tianwang, but just a daughter, a daughter who had not returned for more than 30 years and felt guilty.

She knew in her heart that her father's condition was probably related to the decline of the Ling family, or it was directly related to the price she paid, due to overwork.

"Don't say that."

Ling Chengtai looked at Ling Qianfan and felt very distressed.

For a moment, many scenes of Ling Qianfan's childhood emerged in his mind.

"cough……"

Ling Chengtai suddenly started coughing violently.

Ling Qianfan frowned and subconsciously wanted to use his internal energy to help Ling Chengtai relieve the pain.

"Do not……"

Ling Chengtai shook his head slightly.

"That would only...backfire..."

Ling Qianfan frowned even more tightly. She still couldn't understand why her father's condition had become like this.

However, given the current situation, she couldn't ask more.

The few brief words just now had already exhausted most of Ling Chengtai's energy.

Seeing this, Ling Qianfan didn't ask any more questions. She just simply talked about her experiences over the years, feeling very uncomfortable.

Not long after, the door was gently pushed open, and Ling Zhengqing came back with a bowl of hot medicine in his hand.

"Father, please take the medicine first."

When Ling Zhengqing saw the scene, he couldn't help but choke up a little.

"useless."

Ling Chengtai said weakly.

"I will be able to rest in peace after seeing... Qian Fan..."

"Father."

Ling Qianfan shouted again and took the bowl from Ling Zhengqing's hand.

"I'll feed you."

"Ha ha……"

Ling Chengtai smiled like a child. He was no longer the decisive head of the Ling family.

Ling Qianfan carefully fed Ling Chengtai medicine spoonful after spoonful, trying hard not to let his tears fall...

At this time, Ling Yunpeng had a table of wine in his room and was drinking alone. He was in a very good mood.

In his opinion, some things seemed to be uncertain at first, but now he has figured it out. Ling Qianfan's sudden return is more beneficial to him!

As he was thinking, there was a noise outside.

"What's the matter?"

Ling Yunpeng asked, could it be the old man...

The thought flashed through his mind, and he stood up with a changing expression.

"Second uncle, my eldest uncle came back today, not only with Ling Qianfan, but also with a young man. I checked and found that they came from outside together... Old Cai said his surname was Xiao, and that he was a distinguished guest, and he has arranged for him to rest."

The visitor was behind a door and did not show up.

"Oh?"

Although Ling Yunpeng was a little disappointed, he also became a little confused.

"Surname Xiao?"

"Yes."

The man responded.

"I understand. Continue to observe and don't show up yet."

Ling Yunpeng warned.

"understand!"

The man responded and left.

Ling Yunpeng sat back down, thinking about something, but couldn't figure it out. Maybe he was just an unknown person.

Then he continued to drink alone.
