The wooden door was opened from the inside, and an old woman with gray hair, wrinkled face and tattooed face was standing at the door. She raised her head to look at Wen Dong and Ji Lin outside the door, and squinted to identify: "Who are you... looking for?"

"Hi, grandma," Wen Dong said, with a gentle tone of natural respect, "We are here to climb the mountain, we arrived too early, and we were afraid that it would not be safe to go up the mountain, so we wanted to ask if we could come here You rest here for a while, and go up the mountain later."

In fact, this excuse cannot stand scrutiny, but Wen Dong had a harmless face, and his tone was extremely sincere, so the old woman didn't think about it after hearing it, and immediately greeted warmly: "Okay, what's wrong with this? Hurry up." Please come in."

While talking, she staggered to the door, making way for Wen Dong and Ji Lin.

Wen Dong and Ji Lin kept their eyes on each other, and followed the old lady into the inner living room.

But in fact, the living room is just a small room, not even a sofa, only two wooden benches.

"Sit, sit," the old woman pointed to the wooden bench and said, "I'll pour water for you."

Wen Dong and Ji Lin didn't refuse, but just thanked them earnestly.

After the old woman turned away temporarily, Wen Dong turned her head and bumped into Ji Lin's eyes.

Ji Lin looked down at Wen Dong for two seconds, and the corners of his lips suddenly raised slowly.

Wen Dong was inexplicable: "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Ji Lin shook his head, his tone seemed to be teased, "I just think my little rose really respects the old and loves the young."

Wen Dong had a meal.

He immediately heard two points of deeper meaning from Ji Lin's words——

I still remember that in the case of Shen Xi, when they cooperated for the first time, Ji Lin once said that when Wen Dong mentioned Lu Mengting, his eyes were the same as when he saw Shen Xi's body, that was compassion.

At the time, Ji Lin said that he was very curious about what kind of unusual experience Wen Dong had, so that at such a young age, he would always have a kind of empathy as if all sentient beings are suffering.

But at that time, the two still didn't trust each other, and they were facing each other, so Wen Dong naturally wouldn't give him an answer.

And now, "respect the old and love the young" in Ji Lin's mouth, Wen Dong can hear that Ji Lin is actually talking about the compassionate look he naturally showed when he looked at the old woman or at this desolate house.

But this time, Wen Dong didn't compete with Ji Lin anymore, he nodded calmly, and then said in a relaxed tone: "Sorry, it's a natural reaction after watching too much, in fact, maybe the old lady is much happier living here alone than me, I don't need to feel pity."

As if he didn't expect Wen Dong to say the word "compassion" directly this time, Ji Lin raised his eyebrows a little. He didn't ask "what have you seen?" Not having a good time?"

Unexpectedly, this was the focus of Ji Lin's attention. Wen Dong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned his head quickly, confirming that the old lady hadn't come yet, Wen Dong immediately approached Ji Lin, raised his hand and opened the zipper of Ji Lin's jacket, and then Kissed his Adam's apple.

"Happy." After that, Wen Dong frowned and smiled, "I'm really happy after meeting you."

Ji Lin is not the sun shining into his dark past, on the contrary, Ji Lin is the opposite side of the sun, but for Yu Wen Dong, this is precisely the most fatal attraction.

Wen Dong's appearance was originally glamorous, and it was rare for him to smile without haze like this, so this smile could almost be called the melting of ice and snow.

At this moment, Ji Lin clearly felt something secretly surging deep in his heart, struggling and even clamoring, as if it was about to break out of the ground.

At the same time, Wen Dong suddenly frowned slightly, and looked at Ji Lin in a little surprise——

Wen Dong didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that the smell of vegetation at the tip of his nose was always the same, but at this moment, it seemed to change slightly, it seemed to become thicker and weaker.

But before he could think about it, there was another bitter taste that was getting closer——

It was the old lady who came back after pouring the water.

Obviously, Wen Dong's previous words were just casual. He knew that the old woman was not happy, at least at the moment. After all, there is no happy person who would exude such a strong bitter taste.

As for the unhappiness, or the reason for being sad, Ji Lin had already vaguely guessed, and told Wen Dong on the way here.

And this is exactly the purpose of their visit this time.

If Ji Lin's guess can be confirmed, it may point out a clear direction for Fu Yan's case.
