There was silence all around, which was so quiet that it made people feel a little frightened.
Ling Huaixin's heart froze: Could it be that this girl had some background? Otherwise, why would these elders and other patriarchs look at her so strangely when they saw her?
Just when Ling Huaixin felt uneasy, an old man with an elegant figure and a slender face had separated from the crowd and walked towards Ling Chuxi. It was the head of the Ling clan: Ling Mofeng.
"You are finally back." Ling Mofeng had a faint smile on his face, but tears were shining in his eyes. His voice was so calm, but full of relief, joy, and care.
"Grandpa, Chu Xi is back." Looking at Ling Mofeng's kind and weathered face, Ling Chuxi's voice choked up.
She had imagined countless times what it would be like to see her grandpa, and she might feel uneasy or ashamed, but when she actually stood in front of her grandpa, she realized that all her imagination was redundant.
At this moment, she only felt her grandfather's heartfelt care and joy, and the family affection that was thicker than water. She didn't even need to reveal his identity, but she knew that the old man in front of her was her grandfather.
, the grandfather who risked his entire family to protect his daughter.
Even though it was the first time to meet her grandfather, Ling Chuxi felt so close to her, as if she had never been apart.
"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back." Ling Mofeng laughed loudly, and his whole body seemed to be ten years younger.
"Grandpa?!" Seeing this scene in front of him, Ling Zhongxiao was completely petrified.
Ling Chuxi calls the head of the family grandpa, so she is also her cousin?
No wonder he felt so close to Ling Chuxi as soon as he saw her. No wonder she had been sparing no effort to help him. It turned out that she was his cousin. Recalling every moment after they met, Ling Zhongxiao suddenly realized, but it was also a little strange that he had never been there before.
Have you ever heard of such a cousin?
Ou Yulu was also so surprised that she opened her mouth wide. She looked at Ling Chuxi, then at Ling Zhongxiao, then at Lan Xinyu, and immediately saw the narrow smile on her face. Only then did Ou Yulu understand that she was really beaten last time.
Lan Xinyu is so miserable. Talking about being a family five hundred years ago and talking about being close to each other is all nonsense. They are just cousins. Think about being hurt by Lan Xinyu and worrying about not having a good meal.
, playing gentle and demure in front of Ling Zhongxiao all day long, Ou Yulu felt depressed for a while.
Ling Huaixin was also shocked. He guessed right. This girl really had a great background. She was actually the granddaughter of the head of the family. No matter how the third elder calculated and how hard he tried, at least until he got what he wanted, Ling Mofeng
He is still the head of the Ling family, and no one dares to ignore his authority. If he offends his granddaughter, isn't that asking for death?
Ling Huaixin was secretly afraid, but fortunately at first he was only targeting Ling Zhongxiao and not looking for bad luck with Ling Chuxi, otherwise he wouldn't even know how he died.
While he was frightened, he was also puzzled. He only heard that the master of the family had a daughter who had gone into seclusion at Endless Peak many years ago. Why did such a granddaughter suddenly appear?
Behind Ling Mofeng, the heads of other families also had different expressions. When they saw Ling Chuxi for the first time, they thought it was Ling Fenghua, the Ling family's so-called millennium prodigy and peerless splendor, who had returned. When they took a closer look,
They also found that the age was wrong. This girl looked like she was only about twenty years old. She could never be Ling Fenghua. It was not until Ling Chuxi called out "Grandpa" that they knew that this girl was Ling Mofeng's granddaughter.
Mo Feng only has one daughter, and his granddaughter is naturally Ling Fenghua's daughter.
