He was an only child and had no brothers or sisters. Although he later had his own women, they were willing to sacrifice everything for him, but that was different from Xiao Ma, who was considered his only sister in the world.
"Tianlei, Xiaoma is an orphan. I was also an orphan. You don't know the desire we have for our loved ones. I am luckier than her. I was adopted by my father since I was a child. I don't have the loneliness of being abandoned by the world.
and despair, but now if someone tells me that I also have relatives and brothers and sisters, I will be willing to sacrifice for them without hesitation."
Zhang Xuejiao's voice was not so-called sensational, but it was like a knife, completely peeling off the layer of things outside Zhu Tianlei's soul that he had worked so hard to hold on to.
No wonder Xiao Ma teased Zhang Xuejiao so much, and Zhang Xuejiao didn't show any disgust. It turned out that Zhang Xuejiao saw Xiao Ma's heart at a glance, and she felt sorry for and cared for Xiao Ma.
Zhu Tianlei suddenly turned around and rushed directly into the yard.
"Lao Lan, stand up!"
Lao Lan looked up at the young master who suddenly appeared. He didn't quite believe that the young master would compromise so quickly.
"Because I have decided, whether you agree or not, whether you tell me the reason or not, I will not sacrifice her."
After saying that, Zhu Tianlei walked quickly towards Xiaoma's room.
Lao Lan looked at Zhu Tianlei's back with complicated eyes.
He stood up slowly. His knees were sore, but compared with his heart, this soreness was almost negligible.
What he feared most happened.
He saw the determination in the young master's eyes, the determination that has been in the bones of successive generations of the Ling family.
Lan Wei didn't know what happened, but he suddenly felt that his grandfather had aged a lot in an instant, and he could not hide the feeling of vicissitudes of life in any way.
Zhu Tianlei stood outside Xiaoma's room, the door was not closed and was ajar.
Xiao Ma squatted on the ground and was dressing the dark and shiny fur called Carbon Doll. Her movements were not skillful, but she was very serious.
Zhu Tianlei later discovered that this black cat not only had melanosis but also dove syndrome (there are black spots under the fur, just like a person suffering from a severe cold, causing frequent chills). He thought that this dress should belong to the women of the Lan family.
Xiao Ma went down the mountain just to get this dress.
At this time, Xiaoma no longer looked arrogant and domineering, only quiet and warm.
Thinking of Xiao Ma's answer that Zhang Xuejiao told him, Zhu Tianlei's heart ached again.
"Don't worry, sister, my brother will definitely protect you, and he will be by your side in the future, for sure."
Zhu Tianlei said secretly in his heart, and then left quietly.
Xiao Ma turned around. She felt that there seemed to be someone at the door just now, but when she turned around, the door was empty.
Lao Lan returned to the room, took a shower, changed clothes, and then appeared in front of Zhu Tianlei.
"Young Master, I know that no matter what I say, I can't change your decision, but there are some things I still want to say."
Zhu Tianlei was sitting on the chair in the basement again, looking through the last notebook he had not read the day before yesterday.
"Xiao Ma's ancestor is also a descendant of the Ling family. If possible, my subordinates are willing to sacrifice themselves and will never let Xiao Ma's ancestor make such a sacrifice. However, this is something only Xiao Ma's ancestor can do. The young master is kind-hearted and does not want to let it happen.
Xiaoma's ancestors were hurt, and I understand, but I also hope that the young master can recognize his responsibility. You are not alone. You shoulder the hope of the entire Ling family. The kindness of the young master will be the key to destroying the entire Ling family.
It is the weapon of the Ling family, so I kindly ask the young master to think carefully before making a decision."
After saying that, Lao Lan clasped his hands together and looked at Zhu Tianlei intently.
Zhu Tianlei kept his eyes on the note and did not look at Lao Lan.
A new round of stalemate begins.
After a long time, Zhu Tianlei put the note on the table.
"Lao Lan, do you believe in God's will?"
"I believe that everything in the world is endless because of the movement of heaven. Including the return of the young master, it is all because of heaven's will."
"Since you believe in God's will, why do you insist on asking Xiao Ma to make sacrifices?"
"Little Lord......"
Zhu Tianlei waved his hands and stood up.
"If God's will is to destroy the Ling family and never return to the world, then even if Xiao Ma is sacrificed and the entire Piaomiao Peak is sacrificed, the Ling family will have no way to reverse it. But if God is to let the Ling family revive, then even without Xiao Ma, the Ling family
Or will he stand gorgeously in front of the world again, what do you think?"
this......
Lao Lan was speechless by Zhu Tianlei's words. He couldn't find the words to refute for a while.
But deep down in his heart, he still felt that only by sacrificing Xiao Ma could the revival of the Ling family be achieved.
"Lao Lan, I know you don't agree with my statement in your heart, but Xiaoma is my sister and a descendant of the Ling family. Why can she only sacrifice herself for the glory that belongs to me? In the past seventeen years, she has eaten
There are many hardships that ordinary people cannot endure. This is what the Ling family owes her. Do they still owe her now? I am her brother first, and then the young master of the Ling family. If I, the young master, can't even see my sister,
If you can't protect them, then who can you protect? How can we talk about reviving the Ling family?"
Zhu Tianlei's voice was not loud, but Lao Lan found it deafening.
After a long time.
"My subordinates obey the young master's arrangements."
Isn't such a flesh-and-blood, affectionate and righteous young master the quality that the Ling family should have? If the young master really agreed to sacrifice Xiao Ma without thinking, would such a person still be the young master he has been waiting for all his life?
Lao Lan suddenly felt as if he had an epiphany in an instant.
It turns out that his previous persistence was not what he wanted.
"Lao Lan, let's start awakening the spiritual source tomorrow!"
Zhu Tianlei feels that since some things have to be faced sooner or later, it is better to do it sooner rather than later.
Lao Lan nodded and did not say any objection or authoritative words. At this moment, the master and the servant had exactly the same heart.
Because he made the decision, Zhu Tianlei felt relieved.
During dinner in the evening, Xiao Ma sat opposite Zhu Tianlei.
"Zhu Tianlei, what are you looking at me for? I'm telling you, don't think you can still trick me. Last time, you succeeded because my aunt didn't pay attention. If you want to trick me again this time, there's no way."
Feeling Zhu Tianlei's gaze, Xiao Ma's hair immediately stood up, and her big eyes widened.
"No, I don't want to, come and eat!"
Zhu Tianlei picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into Xiao Ma's bowl.
"You, you, you...Zhu Tianlei, what is your conspiracy? Tell me, have you poisoned this dish? The weasel is giving New Year greetings to the chicken. You must have no good intentions. I won't eat it."
After Xiao Ma finished speaking, he took out the meat that Zhu Tianlei had put into the bowl and threw it on the table.
"If you don't like meat, then eat eggs."
Zhu Tianlei was not angry at all, he picked up a piece of egg again and put it into Xiaoma's bowl. (To be continued)
