"What's going on?" Ling Yisheng didn't understand the meaning of his words.

Father Ling further reminded, "The Wu family said that our cooperation with them has now been changed to an open election?"

"Yeah, yes." Hearing this, Ling Yisheng responded indifferently.

Father Ling asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

"Nothing, I just think that we've given their family enough preferential treatment, and it's time to return to normal."

Father Ling's eyes flashed with embarrassment, but after a moment of silence he agreed, "Okay, whatever you want."

When it comes to company affairs, he has no power to interfere since he is already retired.

Moreover, considering the close relationship between the two families in the past and the kindness shown to them by the other party over the years, they have indeed been much more lenient towards the Wu family.

Father Ling slowed down and continued to ask, "How are you and Xiaoman doing now?"

"There's nothing between her and me." Ling Yisheng glanced at the woman sleeping in the room with a loving gaze, but his voice suddenly became colder.

If Wu Xiaoman hadn't interfered, there wouldn't have been so many grudges between him and Lanlan.

But now he didn't know how to regain her trust.

"What do you mean it's nothing? Weren't you engaged to her before?" Ling's father raised his voice, his tone somewhat surprised and angry.

Ling Yisheng said in a mocking tone, his voice carrying a hint of anger, "Isn't that all decided by you? I didn't agree to it."

"Since you didn't say anything, we naturally assumed that you agreed, which is why we arranged your marriage so early."

Father Ling sighed as he spoke, as if recalling the past, "When you two were young, you had a good relationship, but later on, who knew that you and Xiao Lan were together..."

Hearing this, Ling Yisheng was about to say something in rebuttal, but was interrupted by his father.

"You are old enough to make your own decisions about your own relationships. I can't control you anymore."

His voice suddenly became tired and weathered, as if he had gone through the baptism of time and had become very old.

At this moment, he still had some of the earnestness of a father in his words.

His voice was low and tired, as if the vicissitudes of life had left deep marks on him.

The tone also revealed a kind of maturity that comes from having experienced the vicissitudes of life, giving people a feeling of calmness and restraint.

At this time, he was no longer as condescending as before, but more like an ordinary father, comforting his son with earnest words.

"No matter what, the Wu family has done a favor to our family. We should stop at the right time and don't go too far. You can give appropriate warnings and warnings. I won't ask any more questions in the future. You should make sure you are clear about it."

After that, he seemed to think of something, and deliberately slowed down his tone and continued, "You are marrying Xiaolan now, Xiaoman's side must be dealt with, and the Wu family must also be appeased, otherwise, the two of you will not be able to live a peaceful life in the future."

As a person who has been through this, Father Ling can naturally see clearly the disputes between the younger generations, and he is even more aware of how careless his son can be in this regard sometimes.

What's more, he inherited a part of his personality, and was destined to have a more bumpy road in love.

Three years ago, he thought he could stop his thoughts and force things back on track, but he didn't expect that he would make things worse.

Therefore, the belated persuasion and teaching now is not only due to the guilt of being a father, but also a kind of compensation for the wrong things done in the past.

At this moment, he was more like a wise man who had experienced many ups and downs, using his life experience to warn his children.

Ling Yisheng didn't expect that his father would say these words.

He originally thought that Father Ling mentioned the Wu family and Wu Xiaoman to play the emotional card again, or to find ways to persuade, hinder or even break up him and Xiao Jinglan.

Unexpectedly, Father Ling did not hinder him, but instead gave him earnest instructions.

His words and deeds showed his tacit approval and even attempt to match him up with Xiao Jinglan.

"I know, you don't need to tell me!"

Although Ling Yisheng knew of Ling's father's good intentions, the years of estrangement between the two of them still prevented him from letting go of his grudge.

His voice was still cold when he answered, and his tone sounded a little unfriendly.

But his hand was still raised high, instead of hanging up the phone as usual.

The hand holding the phone was shaking slightly, revealing his inner unrest.

"Well, okay, that's all for today. You're busy."

Father Ling touched his nose and hung up the phone with some disappointment.

Not long after, footsteps were heard behind him.

There was a hint of sadness on the woman's gentle and peaceful face.

Father Ling turned around, looked at Mother Ling with tenderness in his eyes, and then gently held her in his arms.

After hanging up the phone, Ling Yisheng stood outside the room in a daze for a moment, then put away his phone and returned to his room.

……

in the room.

Xiao Jinglan woke up very early. She pricked up her ears to listen to the noise outside the door, but because of the door, she didn't hear what Ling Yisheng said on the phone.

So she just counted the time silently, thinking about how to get rid of him and go out alone later.

By now, there should be a reply from the other side.

Just as I was thinking to myself, Ling Yisheng pushed open the door and walked in.

He met Xiao Jinglan's gaze, his expression relaxed, and he said softly, "Are you awake? How do you feel? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you want me to call a doctor for you?"

His questions came one after another, which showed how much he cared about Xiao Jinglan.

"It's okay." Xiao Jinglan turned his eyes away and opened his lips lightly.

She rolled her eyes slightly, her voice a little tired, and slowly continued, "It's just that there's no taste in my mouth."

Hearing this, Ling Yisheng immediately stepped forward to test her temperature, and then said slowly, "You don't look feverish, but you just don't have a good appetite? What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll buy it for you later."

"Well, I'd like something with a stronger flavor." Xiao Jinglan replied softly, then turned over as if extremely tired and continued to lie down.

"it is good."

Ling Yisheng looked at her sleeping figure, and soon got up and left the room.

At this moment, perhaps because he took into consideration that Xiao Jinglan was ill, or because of the guilt for what happened last night, he did not think too much about many things. He just thought about satisfying her wishes and requests as much as possible to make her happier.

But in order to avoid accidents, he still asked the nurse to help keep an eye on Xiao Jinglan and pay attention to her condition.

After he left.

Xiao Jinglan counted the time and waited for a while, then opened the door and went to the corridor outside.

She turned to leave, but was suddenly stopped.

"Miss Xiao, where are you going?"

She is a nurse in the hospital.

This was also the nurse that Ling Yisheng had instructed before he left.

She looked confused, wondering why Miss Xiao was about to leave right after Master Ling left.

Without waiting for her to think more, Xiao Jinglan calmly turned around and answered her.
