Facing Zhou Jin's sad call, Li Yan's face, which looked even more haggard and pale in the candlelight, twitched. But she immediately stood up and walked out towards the door, as if she wanted to escape from the house.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Jin's face showed endless sadness. His eyes were even more full of disappointment. Could it be that even if he died, his daughter would not forgive him?
Wang Gui's palm was still pressed on the top of Zhou Jin's head, and the true energy was continuously input into Zhou Jin's body, maintaining Zhou Jin's last life.
Just when Li Yan reached the door and raised her hand to open the door, Lin Yi shouted: "Mom, he is dying...can't you just listen to his last words!"
Zhou Liang said to Li Yan with tears in his eyes: "Fourth sister, please..."
Li Yan stood still, but she did not look back.
At this moment, scenes that tortured her soul kept flashing through her mind.
She was severely beaten by her father, locked up by her father without food, and abandoned by her father in the wilderness. He ruthlessly told her that from now on she would no longer be a member of the Zhou family...
The unbearable past events came to mind again at this moment, piercing Li Yan's heart like a needle.
When Zhou Jin saw Li Yan standing still, turbid tears fell from his eyes. He said in a weak voice: "Yannu, I was so sorry for you back then. I committed a sin on you... But these years, I have also suffered a lot in my heart.
Torture. I was wrong, really wrong... I know that even if I die, you will not forgive me. But today, I will die for you, ahem... I, I, Zhou Jin, will die without regrets. Because
You are my daughter, you can die a hundred times for my daughter and you will not regret it, ahem..."
Zhou Jin coughed twice more as he spoke, then opened his mouth wide, as if it was difficult to breathe, and his throat also made a strange sound. Wang Guihui put his other hand on his open mouth and sucked hard, and a black mass came out.
The blood clot was sucked out. Zhou Jin's breath became smoother, but his voice became weaker, and he said again: "Yannu, I am dead, you have to be well. You have a good son, haha, it's great... It's a pity, I
I can’t hear him calling me grandpa..."
Zhou Jin was about to die, and what he said was touching. It was an old father's confession to his daughter before he died, and it was also an exhortation to his daughter. He also longed for his daughter and grandson to call him.
Zhou Liang knelt beside his father and sobbed softly. Su Jin'er was moved by this situation and kept wiping her tears.
Li Yan stood at the door in a daze.
"Grandpa, grandpa..."
At this time, Lin Yi couldn't bear it anymore. He held Zhou Jin's hand in both hands and shouted with tears on his face.
When Zhou Jin heard Lin Yi calling him grandpa, he felt like a flashback in an instant, his dim eyes brightened a lot, and his expression became excited.
He said to Lin Yi intermittently: "Okay... good boy, you, you must take good care of your mother in the future. She, she has suffered too many, too many..."
As Zhou Jin spoke, he tried his best to raise his other hand towards Li Yan, who was standing at the door with her back to him, as if he wanted to grab her. Then he finally cried out sadly: "Yan Nu..."
Just when Zhou Jin shouted these last two words, Li Yan, who was standing at the door, appeared in an instant. She held Zhou Jin's hand. She was full of tears. She cried: "Daddy, daddy."
, my daughter no longer hates you..."
Zhou Jin held his daughter's hand tightly with one hand and his grandson's hand with the other hand. He slowly closed his eyes, his expression was so peaceful and relieved. There was even a warm smile on his face.
Finally, this old man, who was full of guilt for his daughter, was forgiven by his daughter when the fire of life was extinguished, and he heard her call him daddy again. He really died without regrets.
Wang Huihui also took his hand away from Zhou Jin's head.
He let out a sigh.
…
The next morning.
Lin Yi and others stood in front of a brand new tomb.
Zhou Jin is buried in the grave.
In front of the grave stands a tombstone made of wooden boards, with the inscription on it: Tomb of my late father Zhou Jin. Below it is written: daughter Li Yan, son Zhou Liangli.
Although Li Yan did not change her surname back, she recognized Zhou Jin and her younger brother.
The decades of grievances between father and daughter have disappeared with the ashes that are about to be burned in front of the grave.
Li Yan and her younger brother planned to bury their father here first, and then move the grave to Yongcui Lake after retaking the southern territory.
Looking at her father's tomb, Li Yan let out a long sigh. Over the years, she had too much resentment in her heart. Now that Liang Hongyan is dead, the grudges between father and daughter have been resolved, and a lot of the resentment in her heart has dissipated.
But she remembered one person again. If there were two people in the world that she would never forgive, one was Liang Hongyan, and the other was Qin Gumei.
She originally thought Qin Gumei was dead, but Liang Hongyan told the truth before she died. Not only did Qin Gumei not die, she was also rescued by Lin Yi.
Li Yan could understand that her son was hiding something from him, because no matter how innocent Qin Gumei was, he was Lin Yi's biological father after all. Lin Yi also knew that she hated Qin Gumei, so of course she had to conceal the truth in order to avoid complications.
Li Yan is not ready to question her son now.
Now is not the time.
At this time, the man from last night came. He came over and said respectfully to Lin Yi: "King Lin, I have made arrangements. You can leave Jinzhou now."
Lin Yi looked at the man in black. He was in his forties and had a rough face. Of course Lin Yi knew that this was Xiao Lianqin's man. Maybe this man was the mysterious Xiao Lianqin.
And the man in gray who rescued them yesterday and fought a battle with Linghu Zanghun must be Su Qinghou.
The person who secretly transmitted messages to Qin Guangmin at Piaohua Villa was also Su Qinghou. Lin Yi was still a little confused at the time, but now he was completely relieved, because only Su Qinghou could dissuade Qin Guangmin.
Unexpectedly, Su Qinghou came back.
It seems that Su Qinghou has regained his consciousness.
This made Lin Yi feel happy.
There must be a reason for Su Qinghou not showing up with his true identity when he came back. Lin Yi stopped guessing. Now they had to return to the southern border quickly.
With the help of Xiao Lianqin, Lin Yi and others avoided the spies who were chasing them everywhere in Beifu, and arrived at the coast of Bohai two days later.
Their ship has been waiting in the nearby waters.
Lin Yi and others boarded the boat, and Zeng Tengyun and Zuo Jingjing stood on the bow to greet them.
When Zhou Jin disappeared, Zuo Jingjing asked why. Zhou Liang told Zuo Jingjing and Zeng Tengyun about Zhou Jin's death. When they learned that Zhou Jin was dead, they felt very sad.
This trip to Jinzhou was really thrilling.
If Lin Yi and his people hadn't arrived in time, Zuo Chaoyang, Li Yan, and Zuo Jingjing would have been in trouble.
Lin Yi was relieved to see Zuo Jingjing back safely. He thought Zuo Chaoyang was resting in the cabin due to injury, so he asked Zuo Jingjing.
"How is Zuo Chaoyang's injury?"
Unexpectedly, Zuo Jingjing smiled bitterly and said, "Yang'er was caught."
Zuo Chaoyang was actually arrested.
This really surprised Lin Yi and others.
Wang Hui said: "It's broken, Zuo Yangyang is really going to die now. Before he is sent to Beifu, Xiao Linzi, let's find a way to save Zuo Yangyang. My old man likes this kid very much."
Su Jin'er also said: "Yes, we can't leave him behind."
Lin Yi thought again. Zuo Chaoyang was undoubtedly Zuo Jingjing's lifeblood. Zuo Jingjing would fight to the death to protect his son and would never abandon Zuo Chaoyang. Mother and son would die together. If they were to be caught, they would be caught together. How could Zuo Jingjing do that?
Come back alone?
Lin Yi then asked: "Master Zuo, who was Zuo Chaoyang captured?"
