Chapter 598: Chapter 598: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
"Uncle, when you were young, did you offend anyone?" Gu Ningyue asked as she looked at Ling Chengyang.
Just returned to the country after two years, and his son ended up like this. What kind of deep hatred is this?
Or maybe, it’s as she suspects?
It has nothing to do with the Ling Family, just unrequited love for Ling Tianyou?
If it’s the latter, that person can simply be described as deranged.
Gu Ningyue believes everyone present knows very well, even calling the police won’t help with today’s incident.
First, Ling Tianze got involved in something more destructive than any virus, then he leapt from ten stories high, this heart-wrenching pain; it’s unbearable for the two elders.
Even for someone like her, with no blood ties, it’s hard to accept such an ending. After all, Ling Tianze used to be a bright and healthy boy.
But when he died, he became that kind of appearance.
"No." Ling Chengyang was silent for a few seconds, then looked at Gu Ningyue and said, "I, Mr. Ling, am clear of conscience, and have never done anything to harm others."
Gu Ningyue nodded, not doubting Ling Chengyang’s words.
Especially since there’s a reason why the son like Ling Tianyou, naturally, there must be Ling Chengyang’s teaching and influence.
But with that, Gu Ningyue had to speak out the guess she originally didn’t plan to mention: "Tianyou, investigate Chen Rui! Since she returned to the country, a lot of things have happened... Though we got results on why Shen Hanyin was hospitalized back then, recalling that incident now, perhaps Bai Chengfan has another mastermind behind him."
Back then, I was just focused on venting Shen Hanyin’s anger, didn’t think much about many things.
Looking back now, Bai Chengfan still seems to have words left unsaid.
This bastard, it looks like I have to have a good talk with him again.
But it’s a pity, Lin Ruixian is absent, not sure if I can get something out of him?
"Chen Rui?" Ling Tianyou’s mother was evidently surprised, "How could it be him, Ning Yue, even if she didn’t get Tianyou’s affection, it won’t go as far as ..."
The words were left unfinished, yet Ling Tianyou’s mother suddenly fell silent.
Perhaps thinking of the car accident many years ago, for this, Ling Tianyou’s mother finally also hesitated: "How could he be so vicious? How could he be so vicious?"
Clearly, such a beautiful girl, why could she do such a thing?
Is it just because she can’t have him, that she would do something so terrifying?
Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou’s mother and said: "Check first! There will be a truth revealed. But for now, let’s assign more people to keep an eye on Xuanxuan!"
This is Ling Tianze’s only bloodline left, if anything happens to him, what would Liu Liu do?
Mentioning this, Liu Liu’s expression suddenly became tense: "Mom, Xuanxuan said a few days ago every time he plays outside, there’s always a strange uncle looking at him near the kindergarten’s kids’ fence."
"I asked someone to observe nearby for a few days, but that man didn’t appear. Now..."
Now, with Gu Ningyue’s reminder, that previous urgency surfaced again.
Gu Ningyue looked at Liu Liu and asked: "What time does Xuanxuan leave school?"
Liu Liu wiped her reddened eyes: "Five-thirty."
Gu Ningyue glanced at the current time, thought for a while and said to Liu Liu: "I’ll pick him up today! That man will definitely show up today."
Liu Liu asked, puzzled: "Why?"
"It’s a waste not to use such a great opportunity; now is when the Ling Family relax their vigilance, that person will certainly come." With years of experience from her previous life, Gu Ningyue knew very well when people let down their guard and where their weaknesses resided, "I’ll meet that person."
"You? Ning Yue, as a girl, no!" Finally Ling Tianyou’s mother reacted: "If you get hurt, how can we explain to your father?"
Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou’s mother and said: "Aunt, don’t worry, I’ll return unharmed."
"Besides, I have Tianyou! He will send people to protect me in secret."
Her words blocked any protest Ling Tianyou wanted to voice.
After discussing for a long time, ultimately, they couldn’t resist Gu Ningyue’s persistence and decided she would pick up Xuanxuan at five-thirty.
Liu Liu called the kindergarten teacher ahead of time, after she hung up, the five fell silent again.
Ling Tianze’s death surfaced in everyone’s mind, the air seemed to silence to the point of freezing.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Ling Tianyou looked at Liu Liu and said: "Liu Liu, Tianze’s death, is my fault to you. If you want to hate someone, hate me! I shouldn’t have been so insistent back then..."
The words hadn’t finished, Liu Liu already started crying again.
Tears flowed uncontrollably down her face, just watching made people feel heartache.
Gu Ningyue handed over two tissues, Liu Liu softly expressed her thanks, after sobbing for a while finally spoke to Ling Tianyou: "Big Brother, I don’t blame you, if anything, I blame my misfortune. My only regret now is back then when Tianze wanted to have a child, I didn’t agree to..."
If we had another child, maybe Ling Tianze wouldn’t have met the man named Bai.
According to Ling Tianze’s character, he would have stuck to me like glue during pregnancy, taking me wherever he went.
The whole family cried together, the Ling Family was enveloped in an atmosphere of sadness.
Gu Ningyue also couldn’t help but feel bitter, but could only sit quietly holding Ling Tianyou’s hand, not knowing what to say.
Until it was five in the evening, Gu Ningyue finally found the chance to stand with Ling Tianyou and said: "It’s five, let’s go pick up Xuanxuan."
Elder Ling nodded, Liu Liu got up to send the two to the door, Gu Ningyue comforted Liu Liu with a few words and got in the car with Ling Tianyou.
With the car door closed, Gu Ningyue finally let out a long breath, like a fish returning from land to the sea.
"Let’s go! To the kindergarten to pick up Xuanxuan." Gu Ningyue told the driver the name of the kindergarten, then said to Ling Tianyou: "Tell your people to be swift, don’t get discovered and alert the enemy."
Ling Tianyou nodded wearily, "Okay."
After making a quick call, the car drove straight to Ling Xuan’s school.
Holding Ling Tianyou’s hand, Gu Ningyue kept gently comforting him, but his complexion remained heavy, her comfort didn’t do much good.
"Sigh..." Gu Ningyue sighed softly, feeling today was extraordinarily long.
Maybe, just maybe after today is over, when the sun rises again, everything will be different!
Thinking this way, Gu Ningyue leaned against the back seat and slowly closed her eyes.
