"You thought you did a perfect job at the Xinzhou Jade Shop. Humph, if it weren't for my people cleaning up for you, you would have been targeted by certain departments a long time ago."

Zuo Ling's tense nerves relaxed. If I didn't say it then, what could it do to me if it got out now?

Haha, I found a sofa and sat down, waiting for what was to come with a sullen face.

"I already knew you have the ability of space. It's ridiculous that the spy I planted in the Ding family sent me the news that you have the ability of ice."

Zuo Ling’s heart tensed, as her spatial ability was her biggest secret.

People leave their names behind, swallows leave their voices behind, and it is hard not to leave traces of what you have done as long as you have put your mind to it. The old man was the first to say so openly what he knew.

She wanted to kill and silence the witness.

The old man continued as if he hadn't noticed anything:

"The old fellow from the Ding family never imagined that the spatial ability he had tried so hard to obtain was in you."

This was the first time Zuo Ling saw the old man smile since he entered the door.

Take a look at her biological mother. What a sin! Even in this situation, there are still people who feel sorry for you.

"How did I get to Zuo's house?"

The old man's face, which had just relaxed, suddenly turned cold: "Do you think she abandoned you?"

Isn't it? Zuo Ling's face was pale, and his fists were clenched so tightly that his nails had dug into his flesh.

"Is that how you miss your mother?"

As if he could see what Zuo Ling was thinking, the old man spoke in a bad tone.

Zuo Ling did not answer but asked: "How did she become like this?"

The old man looked in the direction of the woman, a little absent-minded, for a long time, he sighed:

"She... is just a fool."

Zuo Ling agreed with this point. She was not stupid and would not be fooled by her idiot father.

"Back then, when she found out that your stupid father had cheated on her, she was furious and ran away from the Ding family with you in her arms. She is just like you, she also has spatial abilities..."

Spatial abilities can also be inherited? Zuo Ling was very surprised.

"The spatial ability is not the strongest, but it is the rarest. The competition among the major families for spatial abilities has always been cruel. She has been targeted for a long time..."

The idiot dad hooked up with the silly mom for the spatial power.

So, what about you? Are you also plotting against Silly Girl for the sake of the Ning Family?

Various thoughts were running through Zuo Ling’s mind.

The old man fell into distant memories.

"In order to be with that bastard, she broke with her family, but ended up like that. She was too embarrassed to go home, and she didn't know where to go. She walked and stopped along the way, and was kidnapped as soon as she entered the Jin family's territory..."

The old man's face showed resentment, and his whole body was shaking as he thought of the past.

"I got the news too late. By the time I found out that she was at the Jin family, it was already too late. Ahem, ahem..."

The old man tried hard to suppress his violent cough. Zuo Ling wanted to continue listening to the story, so he reluctantly poured him a glass of water.

The old man drank it all in one gulp, but still held the cup tightly. It took him a long time to calm down.

“Jin family!”

He squeezed out two words from between his teeth with hatred.

"The Jin family actually planned to plunder her spatial ability."

Zuo Ling felt a chill in her heart as she recalled how powerless she felt when she was tied to the iron platform. It turned out that the fate of her and her daughter was the same. A layer of red mist covered her eyes.

"Did you and Pei Nansheng do the bombing of the Jin family?"

Zuo Ling didn't say anything. She didn't believe the old man. According to the information she received, the Ning family was much closer to the Ding, Jin, and Zhao families than to the Bai, Li, and Lin families.

The old man said to himself:

"Well done, well done, cough, cough, blow those bastards from the Jin family to death, cough cough cough..."

Zuo Ling poured another glass of water for the old man. This time, the old man did not drink it all in one gulp. He took a sip and looked at Zuo Ling and said:

"You are better than your mother, more cruel than her, and more ruthless than her. Girls should be ruthless when they need to be, and they should never show mercy when they need to be ruthless."

Zuo Ling returned to the sofa, saying nothing.

"You don't believe me..." The old man's face was gloomy, and he laughed at himself:

"That's right. What right do I have to ask you to trust me? Don't trust me. Don't be like your mother. She trusted one person easily and ruined her life. She ended up like that."

The room was silent as the two of them stared at the living dead on the bed, one feeling sad about the past, the other lamenting that the gears of fate actually overlapped at a certain moment.

"By the time I rescued her from the Jin family, she had been tortured beyond recognition. She only had time to tell me the address of an orphanage before she fell into a deep coma."

Zuo Ling clenched her fists. She had taken action against the Jin family because she learned that the Jin family was conducting experiments on plundering supernatural powers.

Now that I think about it, everything was destined and the feud had already been formed.

"I found the orphanage before the Jin family did. After I found you, I thought about it and sent you to the Lin family's territory..."

Zuo Ling captured a message:

"Why is it the Lin family? Why not the Bai family, the Li family, or the Mei family?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, then laughed:

"So, haha, so, haha, so they didn't tell you."

It seemed really funny, and the old man laughed so hard that tears came out.

"who are they?"

The old man avoided answering:

"I don't know why they didn't tell you. I thought... Oh, that's right. They were so cruel back then, how can they have the nerve to do that now?"

Zuo Ling's eyes changed color. The old man said, "They didn't even tell me." This means that she knew these "they" and they were right next to her.

who is it?

"I promised the old lady of the Zuo family a sum of money and promised to give her living expenses every month so that she could take you out of the orphanage.

At first, I sent money to Old Lady Zuo on time every month for many years. Later, some problems arose and I stopped sending you living expenses. A year later, you had already stopped studying and went out to work.

I always thought that it was because of my grandmother's protection that she was able to graduate from junior high school. I smiled bitterly to myself, without that living allowance, I'm afraid...

"I didn't interfere too much in your life because I was afraid of attracting the attention of someone with ulterior motives. I thought it would be good for you to live the life of an ordinary person in the Zuo family. At least, you don't have to be missed by others anymore."

He looked at the other bed with a complicated expression, "I didn't expect that you would awaken your superpowers by yourself."

At this point, the old man looked confused, "How did you know about the energy crystal?"

When the person who was monitoring Zuo Ling came back and told him, he was puzzled as to how Zuo Ling seemed to know about the energy crystal overnight.

The old man was sure that before that, no one had contacted or told Zuo Ling about the energy crystal. This question had puzzled the old man for many years.

"Tell me who 'they' are and I'll tell you." Zuo Ling bargained.

"It doesn't matter. If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

Zuo Ling became even more curious about what the old man was hiding.

"Unfortunately, the Ding family found you through clues later."

The old man sighed: "For the sake of spatial abilities, the Ding family is really determined to get it."

Zuo Ling suddenly walked towards the woman, stared at her for a few seconds, and began to pull out the tubes from her body.

The old man was very anxious: "Stop, stop, cough, cough, cough, stop, cough cough cough."

He struggled to stand up and tried to stop Zuo Ling, but fell back due to his lack of strength.

Seeing Zuo Ling pulling out more than half of the tubes on the woman, the old man raised his hand to press the alarm.

Zuo Ling looked at him coldly:

"Have you asked her? Do you know if she is willing to live without dignity like this? You think you are very affectionate because you saved her and took care of her for so many years, right?"

The old man put down his raised hand weakly, his face pale, his lips trembling: "She...she will die, how dare you, how dare you..."

All in all, he persisted for this woman for 37 years.

37 years, how many 37 years does one person have? !

"Everyone is mortal. What's the difference between living like this and being dead?"

The old man watched helplessly and powerlessly as Zuo Ling removed all the tubes from the woman's body. The woman's chest suddenly heaved violently, a bit like a fish jumping up and down when it's out of water.

The old man was so distressed that he was about to press the alarm again, but he saw Zuo Ling put his hand on the woman's chest, and the woman immediately felt calm.

"you……"

The old man opened his mouth in surprise.

Zuo Ling gave the woman his healing powers without reservation. The woman's body was like a bottomless sponge that absorbed water. In just a moment, Zuo Ling felt that most of her body was empty.

The green energy crystal was used up and there was no replacement. Thinking that the woman also had spatial abilities, Zuo Ling took out the blue energy crystal.

A huge amount of supernatural power was input into the woman's body. Zuo Ling's forehead was covered with sweat and his face lost color, but the woman's complexion gradually improved.

The old man stood rigidly, not daring to move an inch, fearing that he might disturb Zuo Ling.

After using up three blue energy crystals in succession, the woman's eyelashes moved. She tried hard to open her eyes, but she couldn't.

The old man called the woman in a trembling voice:

"Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian, wake up, wake up, wake up quickly, look who she is, she is your daughter, your daughter is here to see you, wake up quickly..."

Zuo Ling once again took out two blue energy crystals and moved her hand to the woman's brain.

A warm force spread throughout her body, making her feel cozy. The woman hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time, and she didn't want to wake up.

But I heard someone calling me:

"Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian, wake up quickly, wake up quickly, look who she is, she is your daughter..."

The woman frowned. Who is Xiaoqian? The name looks so familiar. Is it her? Daughter... She has a daughter?

The old man, who had been unable to get out of bed for a long time, somehow found the strength to walk to the woman's bed, looking at her with tears in his eyes.

"Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian, wake up quickly, look who's here..."

"She is your daughter, the person you care about the most..."

"Xiao Qian, wake up, wake up quickly..."

"..."

When Zuo Ling wanted to give up, the woman opened her eyes blankly, her eyes unfocused.
