"You have always acted decisively. This is the advantage I admire and want you to keep. Don't be delayed by meaningless things. The most important thing is to speed up the action." Xu Suyun urged.
Ling Yansen has always dealt with his mother's harshness silently.
When he was a child, he always liked to cling to her. The colder she was to him, the more unwilling he was. Getting her approval has almost become his only goal in the twenty-six years since his death. Every time he rushed home with a perfect score paper and put it in front of her, she would
I never want to look at him, give him a smile or say a compliment, my son is really awesome.
In all these years, she had never called him anything like son. It was as if he was not her child. But she was not bad to him, but she was not good enough, warm enough, and could not get close to him.
He thought that after all, he was a common man, and he could not be open-minded about maternal love. He had a lonely and bad nature in his heart. The less he got, the more he wanted, and he was almost pathologically persistent.
"It's okay, you can go out." Xu Suyun picked up the book and continued reading.
He suddenly remembered something, "Where did you choose to talk to Man Yin before?"
"Backyard veranda. What's going on?"
No wonder she asked him so many questions inexplicably just now. After a moment of thought, he understood, "Mother, Duan Qingwu may have heard your conversation."
Xu Suyun was not surprised, "It's not enough to worry about it. She heard one-sided words and couldn't go into it deeply. Even if she knew a few things, how could she cause such a big wave if she was so weak? What we should really be careful about is Duan Fei. That bastard is still evil.
If you don't die, the taste is too great! Let him work hard, the good days will not last long!"
Ling Yansen scoffed, her mother could stand and talk without hurting her back. He was the one who was in charge of the overall situation. If Duan Qingwu was really suspicious, she would definitely ask Duan Fei to find out. Then she would have to worry about it.
not him?

Qingwu walked in a hurry and soon reached the depths of the bamboo forest. It was the depression season, and the withered parts of the bamboo leaves turned white under the green lamplight.
She stopped.
There were footsteps approaching behind her, and a faint smell of cologne spread around her.
She frowned. After smelling Ling Yansen's pure and strong masculine scent for a long time, she lost interest in this cologne that she had always favored before.
It seems that habits are really a terrible thing.
Xiao Yixiang looked at her quietly, with a smile on his fair face. His steady look made people feel very approachable, but Qingwu had already seen through what kind of person he was, and his hypocrisy made her feel sick!
"Do you have any sense of being a father? Ever since you left Maomao to me, you have been indifferent to her, as if you don't have this daughter! Xiao Yixiang, what do you mean?"
The purpose of Qingwu's words was not to blame, but to test.
Sure enough, he was stunned at first, and then didn't care. He probably didn't expect that she asked him out just for this reason, "Su Wen and I were confused for a while, so I have no feelings for that child."
"Really? That's not what Su Wen said." Qingwu carefully observed the expression on his face, her eyes searching, "I met her twice, and both times she said the same thing. She said Maomao was nothing like her.
Relationship. She even said you..."
Xiao Yixiang's straight eyebrows twisted, "What did she say about me?"
