Chapter 906 Are you going to drive us away again?
Xingxing looked at the old man's face and raised her little hand to pat the back of his hand.
Lin Zhiyi felt very panicked and didn't understand what the old man meant by this attitude.
Is he really senile?
The old man's hand moved down Xingxing's shoulder and finally stopped at her abdomen.
"You must be fine."
The old man's actions seemed strange to others.
But Lin Zhiyi was terrified.
Xingxing died in his previous life due to infection from donated kidney.
It is impossible for anyone else to know about this except her.
Why does the old man know?
coincidence?
Lin Zhiyi twisted her fingers, paying attention to the old man's every move.
The old man was deeply saddened and muttered something, but no one could hear him.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."
This was the only thing he said clearly.
Gong Shiyan walked in and said, "The nurse at the nursing home said he's been having nightmares lately, and he keeps saying sorry. It seems the side effects of the medicine are severe."
In the past, the three words "I'm sorry" would never have come out of the old man's mouth.
However, Gong Chen and Gong Shiyan both thought it was a side effect of Albert's medicine and did not think much about it.
Only Lin Zhiyi raised his eyes and looked at the old man.
Unexpectedly, the old man was also looking at her.
His dark eyes were filled with emotions he had never seen before.
At this time, Liu He walked in.
"The food is ready, everyone please take a seat."
The servant came forward to help the old man.
Everyone got up and went to the restaurant.
On the way, Lin Zhiyi walked beside Gong Chen.
"Why is the old man talking so weirdly?"
Gong Chen nodded his head: "This place...is not good."
"Ok."
"Don't worry, I won't let him hurt you and Xingxing." Gong Chen said.
"I'm not worried about these. It's just... don't you think the way he speaks is strange?" Lin Zhiyi asked tentatively.
Gong Chen mentioned before that he had some dreams that did not happen.
In the dream, she and the stars were both dead.
This is clearly what happened in the previous life.
Gong Chen was so smart, she was afraid that he would associate the old man’s change with his dream.
By then, she really couldn't explain it clearly.
Gong Chen thought for a few seconds and shook his head.
"The doctor said that most of what he said now was imaginary, and sometimes he didn't even know who he was."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi sighed: "I never thought that others have not forgotten him yet, but he has forgotten me first."
"Maybe this is his punishment?" Gong Chen said calmly.
As they were talking, they arrived at the restaurant.
When the butler arranged everyone to sit down, Gong Chen pulled Gong Shiyan to sit next to the old man.
"Second brother, we need you to preside over the sacrifice today. It's most appropriate for you to sit here."
"But……"
Gong Shiyan wanted to refuse but was interrupted by Gong Chen.
"Second brother, we don't need to talk about this as a family."
"it is good."
Gong Shiyan sat down upright.
This time, the dinner did not involve the old man’s speeches as before, so it was more relaxed and lively overall.
After dinner, the auspicious time arrived.
The sacrifice ended perfectly under the chairmanship of Gong Shiyan.
When everyone was about to leave, Liu He stopped them.
"The master said today is a good day that only comes once in decades, so I specially invited a photographer to come and take a group photo for everyone."
After all, after waiting for decades, the elders in front of us may no longer be around.
Upon hearing this, the young people also expressed their agreement, and the elders had no reason to refuse.
Liu He arranged the location early and even had someone prepare the scenery on the grass outside the ancestral hall in advance.
Everyone sits or stands according to the situation.
I quickly found my seat.
Liu He pulled the photographer and stood in front of the ladies.
"Give us women some processing later. Who wouldn't want to look better?"
"Second Madam, don't worry, we will do some post-production editing to ensure that your images are not distorted and are in perfect condition," the photographer assured.
"That's good."
Liu He smiled with satisfaction.
The others held Liu He and said, "Xiao He, you are so thoughtful. You thought of this."
Liu He explained: "We have been busy preparing for the sacrifice these past two days. It is normal to feel a little tired. It is just a slight change. In the words of young people, it is called restoring beauty."
Lin Zhiyi, who was standing a few steps away, smiled with satisfaction when she saw Liu He interacting with relatives with ease.
It seems that Liu He has also changed.
From now on, there will be no need to worry about her not being able to handle the relatives of the Gong family.
After taking the photos, Lin Zhiyi returned to Gong Chen.
"Third Master, are you doing this on purpose? You don't really want to retire?" Lin Zhiyi guessed.
"what?"
"You handed the sacrifice over to your uncle and asked him to sit in your seat. You also asked my mother to deal with these difficult relatives while you stood aside and admired the flowers."
"Second brother is a smart man. After eldest brother got into trouble, he was the heir to this family. He just didn't want to accept it." Gong Chen said.
"You... don't regret it?" Lin Zhiyi looked at him in the light.
The man in front of him looked just like he did when he was sixteen, like a god, handsome and cold.
The silent aura is enough to inspire awe.
The Gong family’s final choice of choosing him was the right one.
But correct is not necessarily appropriate.
Under the old man's rule, the Gong family became corrupt and heartless.
Gong Shiyan possesses the qualities of loyalty and righteousness that are missing.
With his abilities, perhaps in a few years, the entire Gong family will become more humane.
only……
Lin Zhiyi knew that this was a choice Gong Chen made between her and the Gong family.
She was afraid that he would regret it.
After all, in the previous life, the Gong family reached an unprecedented height within ten years under the leadership of Gong Chen.
"Third Master, you don't have to..."
Gong Chen raised his hand to interrupt: "I know what you are going to say, take your time, don't put too much burden on yourself."
"Ah."
Lin Zhiyi knew that he had his own plans, so she didn't say anything else.
Afterwards, everyone played cards or had fun in the palace...
We waited until after dinner before leaving.
Lin Zhiyi followed Gong Chen and stayed in the Gong family.
In the evening, Gong Chen and Gong Shiyan went to the study for something.
Lin Zhiyi chatted with Liu He for a while, and when she returned to the yard, she met an old man who was lost on the corridor.
Getting lost in your own home is quite unusual.
Lin Zhiyi didn't want to talk to him any more, so she turned around and went to the front yard to call the servant over.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, the old man shouted.
"Lin Zhiyi."
She was stunned.
At first she didn't quite believe that the old man didn't recognize people, until during the meal, when everyone was toasting, he was so embarrassed that he couldn't even call out a name.
This kind of embarrassment cannot be faked at all.
But at this moment, he called out her name with both her full name and her surname.
Could it be that he hated her so much?
Lin Zhiyi turned around holding Xingxing's hand and was shocked.
The old man was standing two steps away from him without him noticing.
"You...what are you going to do?"
"Leave quickly." The old man stared at her and Xingxing, muttering, "Leave quickly, Lin Zhiyi, leave quickly..."
After making sure that the old man had no intention of hurting them, Lin Zhiyi felt relieved and listened carefully to what he said.
Xingxing looked up and said, "Mom, he told us to leave quickly. Is he going to chase us away again?"
