Lin Qingzhi didn't bother, and when he got to the point, he felt there was no need to continue talking.
In the elegant and simple room, the only sound was the gurgling sound of a small pot on the charcoal stove.
After a while, Xue Ling put down the tea cup and looked directly at Lin Qingzhi.
"Young Master Qing, you are very, very good. To say 'one in a million' would be an insult to you. In fact, I was quite surprised that my A Chong could win your favor at first. But I am A Chong's mother.
You still have to listen to what he really thinks."
Lin Qingzhi raised his brows slightly and his voice was as light as water.
"Auntie, to be honest, my feelings for A Chong are very complicated, and they are not just as simple as falling in love. In the eyes of many people, I should be a carefree person who grew up with a good family background, good studies, and good support from my family.
My foundation is enough to last me dozens of lifetimes. But others can’t see how hard I grew up, let alone understand that I, like ordinary people, have a heart that can feel joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. I was once depressed for a long time.
Time... It was Achong's works that allowed me to find sustenance and rekindled my hope for survival. I didn't know him at the time, and I didn't know what he looked like, but I knew that this man had walked into my life.
In my heart."
Xue Ling was secretly surprised and couldn't help but ask: "How long ago did it happen?"
"Six or seven years ago." Lin Qingzhi replied: "Through his works, I finally found a touch of peace in my heart and finally found a balance. I was curious about him, so I checked his information and quietly walked in front of the school gate.
I kept secretly watching him for several years. I never wanted to disturb him, and I thought I would just support him silently. Until fate brought him to me, I discovered that my love for Ah Chong was unforgettable. Later,
I got greedy and took the initiative to contact him, and then step by step I got to where I am now."
Xue Ling lowered his eyes and finally spoke after a long while.
"A Chong...he has never had a girlfriend."
She could still detect her own son no matter how dull he was. She originally thought that her younger son just had a late awakening or was too busy studying and painting to be distracted from love.
It wasn't until Lin Qingzhi was with him that he finally reacted.
Lin Qingzhi nodded: "There are quite a few girls who like him, from junior high school to high school and college. There are even rumors about male and female friends, but in fact he has never liked any of them."
After a pause, he added: "To say it too much, maybe even without my appearance, A Chong's orientation... you will have to face it sooner or later."
"How can there be so many 'maybes' and 'ifs' in the world?" Xue Ling sighed faintly: "You just showed up, didn't you?"
Lin Qingzhi lowered his eyes and whispered: "Auntie, I'm sorry. I admit that I have my own selfishness and greed in taking the initiative to contact A Chong, but I am indeed... unable to help myself. I pursue my happiness... and I have no choice but to do so.
You have been put in such a difficult situation."
Xue Ling smiled and reassured: "The pursuit of happiness is your right and freedom. You have not wronged anyone. Even us, you don't have to feel so guilty."
"But I am willing to stand in the way for A Chong." Lin Qingzhi said with a serious expression: "I don't want A Chong to be worried and scared all the time because of our affairs, let alone fall out with you because of me."
Xue Ling squinted his eyes and took another look at the gentle and handsome man in front of him.
In terms of appearance, he and his son are both handsome men of their own age. In terms of talent, family background, ability, and maturity, he is many times better than his son.
"...Thank you." Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "Someone would do this for my precious son. As a mother, I am very touched and grateful."
Lin Qingzhi looked at her steadily, his eyes full of earnest pleading.
"Auntie, can you consider it? I-"
"I support." Xue Ling interrupted him suddenly.
Lin Qingzhi was stunned, as if surprised. After being stunned for two seconds, he quickly showed a happy smile.
Then, he stood up and made a ninety-degree bow with his straight body.
"Auntie, thank you!"
Xue Ling looked at him and his eyes turned red unconsciously.
"I can see that you are in deeper trouble than A Chong. I can also see that you treat A Chong as your closest relative, pampering and loving me. I may never understand your feelings, but the world cannot let me
There are too many things to understand. Some things, some facts, even if you don't care about them or understand them, they just happen to appear. Even if I don't want to face them, I have to face them."
For parents, it takes so much courage to accept their son’s gender abnormality!
She has experienced it, doubted it, couldn't believe it, and was even sad for a long time. But what happened happened, and they had to face it sooner or later.
Perhaps most parents think that such a thing cannot happen to them. She and her husband Cheng Tianyuan should be one of such parents, but it just happened!
But over the past year or so, she slowly began to figure it out.
This kind of thing is not just a phenomenon that has happened all over the world from ancient times to the present, and has even been allowed and recognized in some countries.
It just happened that I also had one at home.
"Originally, I don't care about your affairs, but after listening to what you just said and seeing your affection for A Chong, I think I can't let you fight alone, let alone my most well-behaved son.
The pain is always frightening. You feel sorry for him, and I, as a mother, also feel sorry for him."
After hearing this, Lin Qingzhi's eyes turned slightly red.
"Auntie, I'm very grateful."
Xue Ling patted her hand down and said warmly: "Sit down, I'll talk to you again."
Lin Qingzhi sat down again, with a brighter and joyful look on his face, and he looked in high spirits.
"Auntie, drink tea."
Xue Ling nodded and picked up the tea cup.
"Young Master Qing, I also want to ask...your parents should have known about it early in the morning, right? I want to know their specific attitude."
Lin Qingzhi smiled slightly and replied: "They like A Chong very much, but things between the two of us haven't really been settled yet, and they are still embarrassed to meet you."
After a pause, he added in a low voice: "My parents knew my orientation as early as my adolescence. After a few days of relief, they showed respect and acceptance. My mother said that no matter how I change, I will always be hers."
Son. My dad told me not to think that I am different from ordinary people, just face it calmly. He also told me not to give up the pursuit of happiness. As long as I can be happy, they have nothing else to ask for."
Xue Ling's eyes moved slightly.
She is not as open-minded about this as her parents.
When I think back, it is impossible for my parents to be ordinary people who could raise such an outstanding and glorious man as Lin Qingzhi.
