When Lin Xiaobai said the sentence: I am not born to my parents...
It was as if the pause button had been pressed in the entire restaurant.
Unknown, Fu Pengxuan opened his mouth to ask something, but he also felt the strange atmosphere in the room, and then he chose to lower his head, picked a piece of crab from the table and ate it in his own bowl.
Although this family seems to be not easy to get along with, the chef of the Lin family has to say that his skills are really good.
It was better than what he had eaten in five-star hotels outside.
Lin Xiaobai saw Lin Ziao's stiff expression for a moment, although it lasted less than three seconds, he returned to his usual serious face.
But it was enough to make Lin Xiaobai's inner alarm bell ring loudly.
In his previous life, he was exposed by the villain just before his death.
After finally being reborn, he won't even enjoy the blessing of the rich young master, and he will be kicked out, right?
"Actually...Xiaobai...your elder brother didn't mean that."
Facing such a stalemate, Lin Zichen tried to say something to ease the atmosphere.
It's just that he was stopped by Lin Ziao after he said half a sentence, "Xiaobai, study hard, don't think about everything you have." Then he glanced at Lin Zichen, "Don't you have something to talk about before dinner? ?”
Lin Zichen instantly understood: "Yes, big brother, let's go back to the study to talk." He had already got up and was about to leave the restaurant, but before he walked to the door, he still didn't forget to turn his head and tell, "Xiaobai, don't play too late with your classmates, let's talk about it later." Butler Li arranged for a car to take people home!"
Before Lin Xiaobai could answer, Lin Ziao and Lin Zichen had already disappeared from his sight.
…………
"Young master, Master Fu, the dishes are cold, should we reheat them, or ask the kitchen to make some after-dinner snacks?"
Butler Li had already worked in the Lin family before Lin Xiaobai was born, so he knew some things in his mind.
Now the young masters must have important things to discuss. In order not to let Lin Xiaobai continue to think wildly, he needs to take care of the young master here responsibly.
"Snacks?!" Lin Xiaobai was still immersed in the panic of his life experience just now, but he was suddenly attracted by this word, "Ice cream fruit, emmm~ double balls of chocolate and mango, can I add a strawberry panna cotta? "
Although the Lin family can be considered a wealthy family, they don't have so many complicated rules for eating.
What's more, the young masters don't have much time to get together for dinner on weekdays, in order to prevent Lin Xiaobai, a childish guy, from messing around while his brothers are away.
Lin Ziao usually strictly controls Lin Xiaobai's intake of sweets.
It basically stipulates that if the main meal is not delicious, he must never eat dessert.
So Lin Xiaobai is lucky if he can eat his favorite ice cream, chocolate, strawberry mousse, tiramisu once or twice a week.
Although he is not smart, he also knows that in today's days of entertaining guests, no one will say anything even if he is a little presumptuous.
"Master, although the weather has been hot these days, it's also autumn. Why don't you have an ice cream fruit scoop, mango and strawberry double balls, and a chocolate cheesecake?"
"That's fine." Lin Xiaobai wouldn't be too serious about eating anyway.
Butler Li: "Then what does Young Master Fu use?"
Fu Pengxuan waved his hand: "I'm not good at desserts."
Butler Li naturally has experience in taking care of so many young masters in the family: "Then let me decide how many salty snacks to choose for you?"
"Yeah." There were so many things on the dinner table just now, and he was indeed not full.
But he is a guest, and he is not too embarrassed that the host family has left, so he continues to eat here alone.
There is nothing better than salty snacks to cushion the stomach.
According to the normal appetite, Li Butler could also see that the few people at the table today should not be too full, thinking that he might have to deliver supper to the young masters later, so he might as well get ready now.
"Then carrot cake, three silk spring rolls, and another crab noodle steamed bun?"
Fu Pengxuan: "Enough is enough!"
Butler Li: "The two young masters, please move to the living room to have a glass of juice and wait for a while. I will have the dining table cleared later."
*********************
At the same time, upstairs study.
In addition to the second child Lin Zichen who was directly called into the study by Lin Ziao, the third child Lin Ziyan was also called up.
Lin Zichen: "Brother, I think you are worrying unnecessarily. The younger brother's words just now are probably just angry words. After all, we have never asked him so much in terms of study in all these years."
Although Lin Ziyan missed the second half of the series, Lin Zichen had already been popularized by Lin Zichen when he came to the study, and he was on his side right now: "Yeah, big brother, little brother is not that smart!"
Lin Zi Ao listened to the suggestions of his two younger brothers, and thought for a while, but his frowning did not relax at all: "No, based on what I know about him, I don't think he seems to be speaking impulsively."
Lin Xiaobai's life experience, except that the fourth eldest Lin Ziwei, who was still too young at the time, may not remember clearly.
The remaining young masters of the Lin family and even Steward Li are well aware of it.
There could have been a Fifth Young Master in the family...
No, maybe it could be Fifth Miss.
After Mrs. Lin gave birth to four sons in a row, her biggest wish was actually to have a daughter.
But Mrs. Lin was not young at that time.
Although judging from modern medical technology and the Lin family's financial resources, it is not impossible to support Mrs. Lin's wish.
But Father Lin felt sorry for his wife and wanted to persuade her to adopt one.
It was a coincidence that Mrs. Lin was pregnant again at that time.
It's just that this birth was a bit of an accident, so that the baby was not born prematurely, but also because of congenital heart disease, he didn't live for more than two days.
Mrs. Lin was heartbroken, and that was when Lin Xiaobai appeared in their sight.
Lin Xiaobai was only ten days old at the time. Because of premature birth and frailty, he needed a large amount of medical treatment. He didn't know which pair of cruel parents threw the child in the hospital incubator, and the child disappeared.
Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Xiaobai and thought of her fifth child who died young, so she adopted the child in a moment of soft heart.
When this happened, the young masters of the family had already reached the sensible age, and they also promised to take care of Lin Xiaobai like a younger brother.
Everyone in the family who knew about this incident has also kept their mouths shut since then, and no one has mentioned a word.
It has been 17 years now, and everything is calm, even they have almost forgotten that Lin Xiaobai has no blood relationship with this family.
What went wrong?
"Big brother also makes sense." Lin Ziyan was led astray by Lin Zichen before, but after hearing what Lin Ziao said, he calmed down and analyzed it, and came to a different opinion, "My little brother has always been very talkative since he was a child. When being scolded, you will only feel that you have done something wrong, even if you argue, but if you say something like 'I can't do it, I will quit', it is absolutely impossible to have the idea that he is not our child. "
"That's right." Lin Ziao nodded in agreement.
The eldest brother and the third child agreed, and both of them turned their eyes to Lin Zichen, the second child who talked the most on weekdays, but cherished words like gold today.
"Don't look at me like that." Lin Zichen raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether I agree with you or not, right? The most urgent thing is to find out how much my little brother knows?"
In fact, although Lin Zichen chose a perfunctory attitude at the beginning, it's not that he really doesn't care about his little brother.
It's just this kind of housework, especially when it comes to family ethics, it's usually a one-pot meal.
After all, Xiaobai was an abandoned baby, and was raised by the Lin family as his own son with good food and drink for 17 years.
Due to emotion and reason, he is neither possible nor willing to leave this house.
But such things as blood relationship and family relationship can't be explained clearly.
You suddenly found out that you have another pair of biological parents, do you really have no idea in your heart?
Even if it's just to ask, why did you abandon me in the first place.
There are also many people who will desperately want to find out their parents.
Lin Zichen was not sure what kind of reaction Lin Xiaobai would have. He only knew that once this kind of incident broke out, it would not do any good to the family other than increasing troubles.
If so, it might as well just pretend not to know.
But obviously, as the head of the family, Lin Ziao couldn't let this hidden danger exist like this.
…………
"What do you think Xiaobai knows?" Lin Ziyan thought about it after hearing Lin Zichen's question, "It's been 17 years, and Mom and Dad never thought that Xiaobai would find his biological son. Parents, those things that adopted him back then were either thrown in the private safe of my mother's bank or destroyed long ago. Xiaobai has no reason to get access to things that few of us can't find. Unless, he listened to What did someone say?"
Lin Zichen nodded: "That's true. But I remember my mother said that Xiaobai was thrown in the hospital on the first day, and she brought him back. But just in case, she also left her contact information with the hospital , lest the parents regret going to the hospital, but it is said that Xiaobai was treated as an orphan and went through the adoption procedures after waiting for a whole year without being able to contact the couple.
Apart from the few of us and the housekeeper, Uncle Li, this matter was known to the two nurses in the hospital who were in charge of taking care of Xiaobai at the time.
Of course the few of us would not say that Uncle Li is also trustworthy.
But Xiaobai didn't know those two nurses?Where else can you hear the rumors? "
After listening to the analysis, Lin Ziao said: "No matter what, take precautions, tomorrow morning I will send someone to the obstetrics and gynecology department of that hospital to investigate again, and personally find the two nurses to confirm.
You—you should also pay attention when chatting with Xiaobai, and find out whether he really knows, or someone deliberately created rumors to deceive him. "
Lin Zichen & Lin Ziyan: "Understood."
The brothers had almost finished chatting, and Steward Li just knocked on the door to inform Lin Ziao that the young master's classmates had been sent back by the driver.
Thinking of the task ordered by the elder brother just now, Lin Zichen asked: "Where is the younger brother? He went back to his room to do his homework?"
Butler Li: "The young master finished his dessert and played games with Master Fu in the living room. The meeting should not be over yet."
Before Lin Zichen could answer, Lin Ziao's face darkened.
Inevitably, the older brother got angry and made the younger brother cry again. Lin Zichen hastily persuaded him, "It's rare for him to make friends. It's not too bad. Didn't the third brother say that the fourth brother is coming back, you really don't worry, let the fourth brother accompany the younger brother to school next week."
Lin Ziao: "Hmph, Ziwei, apart from messing around with Xiaobai, how many serious things has he done over the years?"
"Then I have nothing to do." Lin Zichen spread his hands, "You can't really be overbearing and order my little brother not to allow this or that, can you? He is timid and has been afraid of you since he was a child. You will really scare him!"
It was as if the pause button had been pressed in the entire restaurant.
Unknown, Fu Pengxuan opened his mouth to ask something, but he also felt the strange atmosphere in the room, and then he chose to lower his head, picked a piece of crab from the table and ate it in his own bowl.
