4085 The third elder’s admiration
“Don’t think too much about it. The reason why I’m apologizing to you is not because of young master Huangfu’s status as the ruling envoy, nor is it because you’ve become the young lord. No matter if it was to prevent you from returning to the Ling family at the start, or to turn against you as the young master and mock you in private, it was all out of selfishness. I was afraid that because of you, Ziyun would never be able to rise again in the Ling family. Not only did you help Yixuan, but you also treated me equally and gave me a spirit pill. I really feel guilty, and if I don’t apologize to you, I’ll never be able to live in peace. ” Since the third elder had already spoken, he didn’t care about his face and spoke in one breath.
“Third elder, who doesn’t have a bit of selfishness? I can understand your previous thoughts, so don’t take this matter to heart. I’m not a narrow-minded person. Let’s not mention this matter again and let it pass. I also know that you’re truly doing this for the Ling family. ” After hearing the third elder’s heartfelt words, Ling Chuxi was a little touched and comforted him. After all, who wouldn’t have a bit of selfishness? compared to those people from other families who would kill for personal gain, even disregarding family ties, the third elder didn’t go too far. It was even more precious that he could put down his face and apologize to a junior.
From this, it was not difficult to see that the third elder’s nature was indeed not bad. Even if he occasionally did some bad things, it was always blatantly bad … Oh no, it was bad in an open and aboveboard way.
!!
“As long as you don’t mind, Chuxi, why would I mention it again? it’s not like it’s something to gain face for.” After listening to Ling Chuxi’s consoling words, third elder heaved a long sigh of relief and laughed in a relaxed manner. He then continued,”I came here today to apologize to you and also to talk to you about something.”
“Third elder, please speak.” Ling Chuxi’s impression of third elder greatly improved and her attitude towards him was also much more respectful than before.
“In the past, the reason why I wanted to become the family head was because of my own selfish motives. However, it was mainly because the Ling family’s situation was getting worse by the day. I felt that your grandfather was too passive in his actions. It wasn’t until you came back this time that I realized that it wasn’t that your grandfather didn’t want to revitalize the Ling family. He was just waiting for an opportunity. Your return is the best opportunity for our Ling family.
Your personality is very similar to your grandfather’s in the past, frivolous but not excessive. Even proud people like Ling zhongxuan and Ling Yi dan are willing to submit to you, not to mention Yi Xuan and the others. In the past, I didn’t know your true abilities, so I made things difficult for you. Now that I know your ability, even I can’t help but admire you.
That’s why I’m here today. I want to tell you that from now on, I, Ling Mohan, will no longer covet the position of family head. I’ll do my best to assist you in revitalizing the Ling family. Anyone who dares to oppose you will be my enemy. If I disobey, then let me, Ling mofeng, die under a flurry of swords! Ling Mohan swore. This was also the main purpose of his visit today.
“Third elder, there’s no need for you to make such a deadly oath.” Ling Chuxi did not expect the third elder to make such a vicious oath and was taken aback.
This kind of oath was much more vicious than any oath that would be struck by lightning. It was a good thing, not a poisonous oath.
“I’m just afraid that you won’t believe me. If a family wants to prosper for a long time, it can’t do without the unity of every member of the family. I’ve been too wary of you and made things difficult for you in the past. If I don’t make a poison oath, I’m afraid I can’t even trust myself. ” The third elder said half-jokingly.
Ling Chuxi also laughed. She could see that the third elder had really put down his selfish motives and was wholeheartedly serving her as the young master. This made Ling Chuxi’s mood a lot more relaxed. She didn’t want to be held back by someone while she was strengthening the Ling family. Third elder’s huge change was a good thing for both her and the Ling family.
However, Ling Chuxi did not expect that third elder would give her a surprise!
