Right now, Pang Xia's side was in chaos, and Lee Jingxing's side was not in a good situation.
It was still early in the morning when the old man from the imperial city called. The old man from the courtyard got really angry and told Lee Jingxing to go back immediately since he had already booked a plane ticket. If he didn't come back, the old man would personally go and meet the "that" from the legends.
And this "that person" was naturally referring to Pang Xia!
Immediately after, Liao Fann lowered his head and handed over two tickets. Lee Jingxing squinted his eyes, and went all the way out of the Xing Zhou realm, and sat in the car until he arrived at the airport, not saying a single word to Liao Fann.
In the plane's first class, Lee Jingxing had a cold face, as if someone owed him 5 million. This person had always been the type to laugh in front of others, although it didn't make people feel that it was easy to be close to him, it had never been like this, with a face like frost, and no strangers allowed to enter.
Seated on the other side, Liao Fann tried his best to shrink his burly body towards the corner, trying his best to disappear from Lee Jingxing's sight. It would be best if he could keep going back to the courtyard without thinking of someone like him.
As soon as the plane took off, Lee Jingxing turned around and looked at Liao Fann with his thin lips: "I do not wish for the people around me to have any ill intentions. It was indeed the old man who sent you to me at that time, but I have also told you that since you chose to follow me, there can be no one else in your heart."
Liao Fann lowered his head, it looked like Lee Jingxing was truly angry this time. Actually, he knew that was not kind to him, but no matter what, he had already done it, and since he knew he made a mistake, a man should admit it.
"I'm sorry, sir." If it wasn't on the plane, Liao Fann really wanted to kneel down on one knee.
Lee Jingxing looked at him in silence for a moment. In the end, he merely waved his hand and sighed: "Alright.
One whip and one candy, the Old Ancestor had left behind a good method that would not weaken even after a long time. Furthermore, Lee Jingxing had never planned to do anything to Liao Fann, there was no wall that would not let the wind leak out, so even if Liao Fann did not say anything, he would not be able to hide it for long.
Since Lee Jingxing had said this, Liao Fann felt even more ashamed to meet him. However, he was a man, after all, he wasn't so hypocritical, so he made a decision in his heart, and his gaze became more loyal than before.
"Tell me, how much did they know?"
Liao Fann licked his dry lips. "I … I didn't say much, but I did talk about the Mr Pang. "
"Where's the child?" Lee Jingxing squinted his eyes.
Liao Fann gulped down a mouthful of saliva, "No … Not a word. "
Lee Jingxing reckoned that Liao Fann did not mention Qingqing's leisurely matter, if not, it would not be as simple as just a phone call to recall his away. The old man would probably just directly come over to pick his up, and at that time, it would be very troublesome, the matter between him and Pang Xia was already planned in the very beginning, but now that he had angered the little crab, he reckoned that he would definitely fall out with it in the future. At that time, forget about being together with, maybe Pang Xia would even take the child and fly far away.
"When you get back, you're not allowed to say anything, understand?"
"..." "Yes!"
Liao Fann thought, how could he dare say anything else? The old man's anger would probably burn half of the imperial city, and anything he said would be wrong! Furthermore, since he had already decided to go with Lee Jingxing, even if the old man were to hold his head up against the spear, he wouldn't reveal any more about Lee Jingxing's private life.
When the plane arrived in Beijing, there was already a car waiting outside the airport. Seeing Lee Jingxing coming out, the butler Uncle Zhang immediately opened the door for him.
"Little mister, you'd better lower yourself as much as possible when you go back. Don't say anything back, the old master is stubborn and soft-hearted. If you really are fine, the old man won't do anything to you."
When Zhu Ci married Lee Daoguo, she had one by his side. All these years, Uncle Zhang had worked hard in their family, but for some reasons, she had never married. As for seeing the children of who were born, she treated them as her own children, and as soon as she got on the car, she quickly reminded Lee Jingxing to wake them up.
Lee Jingxing smiled as he looked at Uncle Zhang, and said somewhat helplessly: "Uncle Zhang, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it this time."
The Uncle Zhang was shocked, his old eyes revealed shock as if there was something else. He looked at Lee Jingxing and asked, "What? "Little mister, could it be that you …"
The person behind Uncle Zhang did not say anything, so Lee Jingxing obviously knew what he wanted to say. He sighed and lightly nodded his head.
At this moment, Lee Jingxing suddenly thought of something. He had left in a hurry this morning, and even now, he had not called Pang Xia, but that person saw that he was not there, so what kind of expression would he have? Lee Jingxing thought in a funny manner, only then did he remember to turn off his phone before boarding the plane. He hurriedly turned it on and wanted to give Pang Xia a call.
"Young mister!"
Who would have thought that Uncle Zhang would suddenly shout and grab onto Lee Jingxing's hand, causing Lee Jingxing's phone to fall off the car seat. It would be hard to take even if he got stuck, so he would probably only be able to get off the car later.
The Uncle Zhang did not care about all these at the moment. Seeing that, he became confused: "Little sir, you can't, you can't …. "He will die without a heir. That gentleman in the United States has been waiting for you to pass on his legacy to him. He has lived his entire life by himself and knows the suffering there. He raised you because he wanted you to help him open up a branch and let him inherit his family business …"
It was only then that Lee Jingxing realized that what they were thinking about was not a problem at all. Looking at Uncle Zhang's regretful and bitter face, Lee Jingxing suddenly remembered the photo that he had carefully taken in the American drawer. Lee Jingxing sighed lightly and patted the back of his hand: "Uncle Zhang, don't worry.
"That's good …" Just as Uncle Zhang was relieved, he suddenly remembered something. "Little mister, if you are still like this with that child, then …" "Isn't it bad for her? No matter if she's a man or a woman, the feelings she has for her are genuine."
He looked at Uncle Zhang's current face that had been eroded by the wind and frost, and could count the fine lines of the wrinkles. Thinking back to that American face that was also old, thinking about how he always liked to sit alone in the garden and look at Rose who was in the courtyard, and how he sometimes liked to sit there all by himself, all by himself, all by himself. Sometimes, he would let others see it in the afternoon, yet he insisted on causing to fall into loneliness.
"Uncle Zhang." Lee Jingxing suddenly really wanted to ask about this, "You …"
looked at Lee Jingxing, who seemed to want to say something, but hesitated, "What's wrong, little mister?"
"Nothing."
Lee Jingxing let out a light sigh. Uncle Zhang felt that the things that Lee Jingxing was hiding in his eyes made him feel uncomfortable, so he did not question him further. The atmosphere was a little weird, so Liao Fann, who was in the front passenger seat, spoke up in time.
"Sir, here we are."
"Hmm?"
Lee Jingxing turned his head and indeed, he had already reached the entrance of the courtyard. Speaking of which, Old Man Li had quite the ability, after he had completely retired from the upper echelons, he lived a life of deceit in the imperial city, and normally, when there were all sorts of nurturing flowers, he would play chess with a few old friends. When guests came to his house, other than relatives and friends, he would not see them.
Just then, Lee Jingxing got off the carriage, and just as he stepped into the gate, he was pulled back by his own Second Sister.
"Jingxing."
Lee Yongjun walked over valiantly. She was wearing a white military uniform and did not even have the time to change.
"Second Sister."
Lee Jingxing was alright, he smiled when he saw her.
"To think you can laugh!" Lee Yongjun did not have that kind of worry, as she pulled Lee Jingxing and whispered: "What happened exactly? I received the old man's call early in the morning and told me to hurry back. As soon as I entered the study, I saw that my big brother and third brother were both there, both of whom are very busy people, and I thought that she would give me fifty days' time two days' advance notice, but when I realized that everyone's expression was off, I asked the Uncle Zhang about it and found out that you were not related to a man on your way back to Anhui. Tell me, what's going on? "
Before Lee Jingxing could say anything, the old man's bell-like voice came from the study room. "Why aren't you coming in when you're back?
Lee Yongjun retracted her neck. This was good, she was now completely a fish in a pond that was affected by the calamity. It seemed that the old man was quite angry this time.
Lee Jingxing smiled helplessly at Lee Yongjun as the two of them entered the study room.
The old man's study was filled with an antiquated smell. The furniture, bookshelves, and desks were all made of solid wood. There were a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls. They were all ink paintings.
At this time, the Old Master was sitting on the gold thread zhennan tree sofa, he had maintained well in his later years, and looked to be around 60 years of age. His temples were pale, and traces of his years would be left behind when he raised his head to look at Lee Jingxing, who had entered, filled with anger. The old lady helped him off, and Zhu Yongxu the eldest and third respectively sat on both sides of him, straightening his back.
"Father, mother, brother, Third Brother." Lee Jingxing took the initiative to call someone. Lee Yongjun quickly walked to the side and quietly sat down beside her big brother.
The old man naturally noticed his second daughter's actions, but at the moment, he didn't have the effort to care about it. Lee Jingxing's appearance, clearly knew why he called him back, but he didn't feel ashamed at all, even though the little son hadn't grown up by his side, he roughly understood his temperament. Seeing him like this, either it was a misunderstanding, or he came for real.
In any case, he still hoped that it was the former, but reality always went against his wishes.
