Ling Xu stood up, seeing that Ling Yi's attitude towards Cao Bohang was not very friendly, he hurriedly explained: "Brother, this Uncle Cao is a friend of mother."

Hearing this, Ling Yi slowly let go of his hand.

When Cao Boyang heard Ling Xu call his brother, he seemed to understand Ling Yi's identity. He smiled and said, "So you invited your brother to eat together, so I won't bother you. Originally, I said I would treat you to a barbecue." .”

Ling Xu smiled and waved to him, "Thank you."

Cao Bohang turned and left.

When he walked away, Ling Xu found that Ling Yi had been staring at Cao Bohang's back. He asked strangely, "Brother? Do you know him?"

Ling Yi lowered his gaze, wondering what he was thinking, and said to Ling Xu after a while: "Hurry up and eat, go back after eating."

Ling Xu took a bunch of roasted mutton and handed it to Ling Yi, "You should eat some too."

"Don't eat," Ling Yi said.

"Eat," Ling Xu forcefully stuffed it into his mouth.

Ling Yi wanted to say "Get lost", but as soon as he opened his mouth, Ling Xu stuffed the mutton in, so he had no choice but to reach out to catch it.

That night, I ate barbecue with Ling Yi and returned home happily, but when Ling Xu entered the door, he found that the atmosphere was not right.

Dad was sitting on the sofa in the living room, watching TV with a cold face.Probably didn't watch it at all, Ling Xu saw him keep changing channels, and didn't take a second look at his favorite football game.

When Ling Xu and the others came back, Dad ignored them.

Then Ling Xu found out that his mother was not at home.He went out for evening study and ate outside. When he got home, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening. It was impossible for his mother to go out so late.

Ling Xu looked around but didn't see anyone, so he went back to the living room and asked his father, "Where's my mother?"

Dad ignored him.

Ling Xu stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his father, and shouted, "Dad! Where's Mom?"

Dad suddenly said angrily: "Go away!"

Ling Xu was stunned for a moment, because his father was rarely so harsh on him, and even when his mother scolded him in a hurry, his father would defend him a few words.

At this moment, Ling Yi stepped forward to pull Ling Xu away, and said to his father, "Why are you attacking him? It's none of his business."

Dad raised his hand to rub his face, and said to Ling Xu: "Go to sleep, you have to go to school tomorrow."

Ling Xu hesitated, but still asked, "Where did my mother go?"

Dad said: "Go to your grandma's house, she is fine, you can go to bed at ease."

That being said, Ling Xu was lying on the bed but couldn't fall asleep at all. He tossed and turned, and then got up to go to the bathroom, but when he opened the door a crack, he heard the voices of his father and brother talking from the living room outside.He leaned against the door to hear what they were saying, but because the TV was still on, he couldn't hear clearly at all.

Ling Xu felt a little bad.

After school at noon the next day, Ling Xu originally planned to go to his grandmother's house to look for his mother, but just as he walked out of the school gate, he heard a BMW on the side of the road honking its horn vigorously.

He turned his head and saw that Cao Boyang was sitting in the driver's seat of the car, and his mother was sitting on the co-pilot.

For Ling Xu, this day can be said to be a day that changed the trajectory of his life.

At that time, he already felt that something was wrong when he saw the situation. Although he couldn't tell what was wrong, he refused no matter what when his mother opened the car door and asked him to get in the car.

Cao Bohang was a little agitated. Seeing that Ling Xu was unwilling to get in the car, he said to him, "Xiao Xu, I am your father!"

Ling Xu glared at the man, cursed coldly "crazy", turned around and ran away.

However, Ling Xu, who was rushing home, felt that his hands and feet were cold, and even as he ran, the scenery in front of him swayed up and down, which seemed unreal.He didn't believe that man's words, but he felt scared at the same time, because the strange atmosphere in the house hadn't lasted for a day or two. He knew that his parents were arguing, and he also knew that his father's mood was very irritable. All these were caused by his mother. Yes, he was scared, very upset about it.

When he got home, Ling Xu found that the house was in a mess, and his father was sitting in the living room with red eyes. Although he saw him, he didn't react at all.

At this time Ling Yi was still not there, he had not finished his get off work as an intern in the company.

Ling Xu felt scared, so he hid outside the door, called Ling Yi, and then wandered uneasily in the corridor, waiting for Ling Yi to come back.

Ling Yi asked for leave from the company and hurried home. Ling Xu followed him into the house, and the first thing his father said was: "She said that Ling Xu is not my son, nor was he born to me."

Ling Xu was cold all over, he grabbed Ling Yi by one sleeve, not knowing what to do.

Ling Yi turned to look at him, grabbed his hand, and said to his father, "Dad, calm down first."

There are many things that Ling Yi didn't want to say in front of Ling Xu, fearing that he would not be able to bear this kind of blow, but now, this matter has been spread out in front of Ling Xu, it is Ling Yi who wants him to continue There is no way to avoid it.

Ling Yi persuaded his father for a long time that day, and Ling Xu just sat and listened. It was the first time he was so restless in his own home, afraid that his father would tell him to fuck off in the next sentence.

In the evening, my mother came back and said that she would pick up Ling Xu.

Ling Xu refused to go with her no matter what, grabbed Ling Yi's arm and hid behind him. No matter what his mother said, he refused to agree. Later, his parents almost fought, and it was Ling Yi who persuaded him to leave.

Mother's necklace was torn off and her hair was messed up, but in the end she couldn't take Ling Xu away.

But even if he stayed in this house, Ling Xu's situation was not easy. He didn't fall asleep all night, and cried in the dead of night, and then felt that he was worthless, so he sat on the bed in a daze until morning.

However, what he didn't expect was that his father and Ling Yi also chatted all night. As soon as he woke up in the morning, Ling Xu heard his father tell him that he didn't have to go to school today, and they were going to do a paternity test.

Ling Xu didn't want to go, he said, "Father, do you think I'm not your son?"

Dad's face was haggard, and he wasn't in the mood to shave his beard. He didn't want to lose his temper with Ling Xu, and he couldn't pamper him like he used to without any grudges. He just said, "Let's go for an appraisal first."

Ling Xu shook his head, glanced at Ling Yi, then ran back to the room and locked himself up.

After a while, Ling Yi came and knocked on the door.After knocking for a while, Ling Xu opened the door for him.

Ling Xu continued to go back to the bed and lie on his stomach, while Ling Yi sat by the bed and said to him, "Get up, and go for an appraisal with Dad."

"No," Ling Xu said, "I'm my father's son, what kind of identification should I do?"

Ling Yi stretched out his hand, stroked his hair gently, and said, "You have to go, no matter whether you are or not, you have to go, understand?"

Regardless of whether Ling Xu is his father's child or not, they must pass this hurdle.

Ling Yi sat with Ling Xu for more than half an hour, but Ling Xu still agreed to do the appraisal.

It will take about half a month for the appraisal results to come out. During the period of waiting for the results, Ling Xu still lives at home, but his father seldom comes home. Perhaps it is because he has no way to face him, so he tries to avoid seeing each other as little as possible. Awkward.

From time to time Ling Xu would feel abandoned by the whole world, but fortunately Ling Yi has been by his side these days.

On the day when the appraisal result came out, Ling Xu didn't get the news immediately, he didn't even see his father, everything was told to him by Ling Yi.

Ling Xu was sitting on the sofa, Ling Yi was originally opposite him, but he suddenly stood up and sat beside him, put his arms around his shoulders, sighed and said: "It turns out, you and Dad are not biological father and son. "

Ling Xu was stunned, staring blankly at the coffee table in front of him.

Ling Yi exerted some force in his hands and said, "Don't do this, the sky hasn't fallen yet."

Ling Xu's body trembled slightly, he stepped on the sofa with both feet, hugged his knees with his arms, and curled himself up with his face buried.

Ling Yi put his palm on his back, comforting him gently and slowly.

Later, his father and mother divorced, Ling Xu had no choice but to follow his mother to leave the home where he had lived for 18 years, no matter how reluctant he was.

At that time, he had followed his mother back to live with his grandmother, and one night he called Ling Yi out to drink with him.

Ling Xu usually comes to smoke and drink with friends outside, but this is indeed the first time that this kind of drinking is used to relieve worries.The two of them hardly spoke a word, and later Ling Xu was drunk, maybe he cried and called his brother while hugging Ling Yi, but he didn't remember it.

Because within two days, Ling Xu's mother arranged for him to transfer schools and took him out of the city.

"I don't know anything about your family after that," Ling Yi said slowly under the dim light of the cake shop, "It's just that my father had a serious illness, and he hasn't been in good health since then. He died of a sudden illness."

Ling Xu wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

"Forget it," Ling Yi said, "It's meaningless for you to think so much now. Dad has already left. No matter how angry or sad he is, there is no room for maneuver."

Ling Xu stared at him blankly, then nodded.

After a moment of silence, Ling Xu suddenly asked: "Didn't I come back after I left?"

Ling Yi raised his hand and lightly touched the tip of his nose, and replied, "When you came back, you were already married and had a child."

Ling Xu took a deep breath, "It turns out that it is like this, then what happened after I left, it seems that there is no way to know for the time being."

There are still many things he wants to know, such as what happened in these years, who is the child's mother, what happened to his mother and the so-called biological father.But these things seemed not so important compared to what Ling Yi told him before him.

It took a lot of time and energy to digest just the two things of father's death and that he was not father's real son.But now Ling Xu, who has just learned the truth, can't help feeling something close to hatred towards his mother. He doesn't want to see her, let alone that man. In his opinion, they are the ones who ruined him. life.

In fact, Ling Xu still has a lot of doubts, but at this moment, he can't remember anything.

No matter what, he found his brother, which is the most reassuring thing for him at present.

Before Ling Yi left, he asked Ling Xu, "You live here now? Do you want to move back with me?"

Ling Xu said: "I went back, but they said you have moved away."

"It's been a long time since I moved," Ling Yi told him, "I live alone now."

Ling Xu was taken aback when he heard this, "Brother, are you still married?" He thought that at Ling Yi's age and with such good conditions, he must already have a wife and children.

Ling Yi responded, "Yes."

Ling Xu is actually a little moved. If he can move to live with Ling Yi, it will definitely be much more comfortable than living in the small room behind the cake shop, but even if he is moved, moving away cannot be decided in a short while. As for the matter, the proprietress has taken him in for so long, and he can't be so irresponsible, so he had no choice but to say to Ling Yi: "Let me think about it, I have to make arrangements here first."

Ling Yi said, "You can do whatever you want."

After finishing speaking, Ling Yi left the cake shop. Outside, his driver parked the car in front of the cake shop and had been waiting for him for a long time.

Ling Xu watched Ling Yi leave, put his head on the glass door to calm down for a while, and then went in and locked the door of the cake shop.
