Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ling Sheng handed over her phone in tears. She felt like dying, she was doomed. When she returned home later, her father would kill her.
Nangong Lengmo looked at her with sympathy and sighed deeply. He s.n.a.t.c.hed the phone away. After all, he did not want his sister to be with Huo Ci. He could not afford to turn back.
“Uncle, I still have to go down and film!” Ling Sheng’s voice was very low as she pressed her palms together in an attempt to gain his sympathy.
“Ican’t make the decision. Ask your grandfather.” Although Nangong Lengmo felt sorry for her, he was still angry. What did this little girl do? She wanted to anger them to death!
“Grandpa.” Ling Sheng bit her lips aggrievedly and looked at him tearfully. “I want to work and film. You can go back with Uncle. I don’t have to go back!”
“You came to China without permission and even joined the entertainment industry. I haven’t settled the score with you yet!” Nangong Lun pointed at her angrily. “Come here.”
Ling Sheng moved towards the opposite side with difficulty. Her tears were about to fall as she sniffled and pretended to be pitiful. “Grandpa, I like acting, Didn’t you say that you would let me do whatever I wanted to do? Did you go back on your word?”
Nangong Lun’s heart softened when he saw the sparkling tears in the little girl’s eyes. However, when he thought of the ridiculous things she had done, he hardened his heart. “Knee!”
Ling Sheng was very obedient as she knelt on the ground with a thud. When her knees landed on the ground, the voice was very loud. Her face contorted in pain as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Nangong Lengmo ran over with a heartbroken expression. Before he reached her, he saw his father pulling her up.
Nangong Lun was both angry and distressed. He quickly pulled the little la.s.s to sit on the sofa and reached out to roll up her leggings. The skin on her knees was already torn and blood was seeping out. He began to blame herself and shouted coldly at Nangong Lengmo, “What are you waiting for? Bring
the medicine here!”
Nangong Lengmo sighed helplessly. Look at him, he was the one who made her kneel. Now that she was hurt, his heart ached and he lost his temper!
“Grandpa.” Ling Sheng was the best at acting pitifully. She had another set of memories. After she let go of the grudge in her heart towards Nangong Lun, she did not feel any pressure when she acted coquettishly. When she pretended to be strong, she sucked in a cold breath and smiled at him. “It doesn’t
hurt at all.”
“You!” Nangong Lun also hated himself. Why couldn’t he be ruthless? He clearly knew that the little girl was pretending to be miserable to deceive him, but his heart still ached!
Nangong Lengmo brought the first-aid kit over and looked at the injury on Ling Sheng’s knee. She was the most resourceful little imp. Every time, no matter how angry the Old Master was, she would have a way to coax him.
This matter was so serious. She was the stepmother of someone else’s child and was pregnant.
With his father’s temper in the past, he would be so angry that he would hit her!
All these years, his father’s temper had been getting better. Perhaps after experiencing what happened to his sister, he had already gotten over it.
Nangong Lun applied medicine on her and sucked in a breath of cold air. His face was tense and serious. His eyes were filled with pain as he asked gently, “Does it hurt?”
Ling Sheng shook her head and smiled. “It doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t hurt at all. Grandpa, are you not angry with me anymore?”
“Tm angry.” Nangong Lun snorted and moved his hands lightly. He was afraid that he would hurt her, so he sighed deeply in his heart.
Even if she was in the wrong, so what? He had doted on the little girl since she was young, he could only pamper her no matter what.
“Grandpa, I love you the most.” Ling Sheng felt that she was a little puppy. Her face was stuck to Nangong Lun’s shoulder as she acted coquettishly.
Nangong Lun reached out and knocked her head. With a stern face, he lectured, “Behave yourself and don’t make a fuss. I’m applying medicine!”
Ling Sheng hummed softly and obediently sat up straight. Her small face was calm and composed, and she was very obedient.
After Nangong Lun finished applying the medicine, he asked her, “Is what that brat said true?”
Ling Sheng acted dumb. “Grandpa, what are you asking?”
Nangong Lun clenched his fist and looked at her stomach. He gritted his teeth. “The child in your stomach!”
Ling Sheng nodded honestly. “Yes.”
‘When Nangong Lun heard this, he couldn’t accept it in his heart. He suddenly covered his face and started crying. He was as sad as a child and turned around to not face her.
Ling Sheng was dumbfounded as she ran over nervously. “Grandpa, what’s wrong? Why are you crying?”
Nangong Lun continued to cry. He did not look at her nor did he care about her. He was like a child throwing a tantrum.
He was heartbroken. How could his baby be pregnant? She had only left home for a few days. How could she be pregnant with another man’s child?
Nangong Lengmo was also stunned. This was the first time he had seen the old master cry like a child. He looked frail and pitiful.
“Grandpa, I’m sorry.” Ling Sheng’s voice softened. When she heard the elder cry, her heart felt terrible. Her eyes were sore and she felt like crying too.
“Grandfather is fine… It’s fine…” Nangong Lun turned his head and looked at her with teary eyes.” How can you get pregnant without telling Grandfather? What is going to happen to you now? You’re a girl, how can you learn from your mother?”
Back then, when Yu’er came home pregnant and was let down by that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d Huo Ci, if not for her insistence on stopping him, he would have gone to China personally and broken his legs.
Now that his sweetheart was pregnant, he… he felt terrible. It wasn’t that the Nangong family couldn’t afford to raise a child, but he felt terrible.
Why did those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds pick girls from the Nangong family to bully? Did they think that the Nangong family was easy to bully?
“Grandpa, I don’t know either. Don’t cry.” Ling Sheng wiped his tears. In her memory, this was the first time she had seen the old man cry like this. Her heart clenched. “Grandpa, I’m different from Mom. The Third Master won’t let me down. He won’t abandon the baby.”
“Your dad, he’s not fit to be your dad. That little b.a.s.t.a.r.d Huo Ci, he’s not human!” Nangong Lun complained in a hoa.r.s.e voice.
Nangong Lengmo could not bear to look at him. He was already an adult, yet he was crying in front of a child like Sheng Sheng and did not feel embarra.s.sed at all.
“Yes, Grandfather, you’re right. It’s all his fault. My father is not human. He’s an ingrate and a heartless man.” Ling Sheng also helped to scold him.
“How did your mother get together with him?” Nangong Lun was already embarra.s.sed in front of her, so he threw caution to the wind and did not care about anything else..
