"Bro, you and sister-in-law left all alone in Spring Wind Town, and I was bored to death! Not allowed to eat people, not allowed to kill people, I could only count ants on the ground every day." Yu Rongling had an expression of extre boredom from his ti in Spring Wind Town, as if he was being suffocated, "I could only co to find you guys, but who knew the Lin Family... was so terrifying. I was just walking around the entrance and got sucked into a formation for capturing demons."
"You reckless child, you almost lost your life because you were bored, not giving anyone peace of mind." After hearing Yu Rongling's reason, I really wanted to smack him.
I thought this kid was getting more mature, but it turned out he was just as childish.
Yu Longting gave a gentle smile, "Wife, don't worry, just saw off his legs, and he'll stay put."
"Bro, you're too scary, if you saw off my legs, won't I beco disabled?"
Yu Rongling was scared peeless, his legs shaking, "And, I ca to the Lin Family because I heard Mother's call."
"Mother's call? You... have been summoned??" Yu Longting looked at Yu Rongling with an evil glint in his eyes.
Yu Rongling sighed, "I... was just wandering around in City A, I didn't plan to enter the Lin Family, but I felt Mom calling , and like I was possessed, I ended up at the Lin Family..."
There was a mont of collective silence.
Afterwards, Zhang Che said, "Miss Wan, you and the Snake Lord, along with the Snake Lord's brother, should leave the Lin Family."
"Because of Rongling?" I looked towards Zhang Che.
Zhang Che nodded, "Demons that trespass into the Lin Family are bound to die."
"This matter concerns the dignity of an Exorcist family. Without severe punishnt, word will spread, and the Lin Family will have no standing in the entire Geomancy Realm." My mother continued the conversation.
"Is it that serious?" My heart skipped a beat, although it was who had brought up leaving the Lin Family initially.
At this mont, a sense of reluctance began to burgeon in my heart.
Zhang Che continued, "It's fine if you don't leave now, but once people discover that the snake is Yu Rongling, the Lin Family will rise up to attack. With the Snake Lord's ability, if you're not afraid to break ties with the Lin Family, then you could take your brother and fight your way out."
"But my brother is afraid, my sister-in-law has Lin Family blood, after breaking ties, how can he marry my sister-in-law?"
Yu Rongling rambled with concern, ending with a tragic look, "Do I really have to bid the moon farewell? But I haven't done anything wrong!!"
"Alright, let's leave now." I made the decision almost instantly.
Nothing was more important than Yu Rongling's life, the choice was clear.
Tangtang's eyes flickered with hurt as she buried her little face completely in my arms.
Her small hand gently grasped my sleeve, her reluctance towards evident.
My hand gently stroked the back of Tangtang's head and I kissed her little face.
My mom said, "Go upstairs and pack, I'll hold Tangtang for you."
"Okay, thank you, Mom. You… take care of yourself at the Lin Family, if you're not comfortable living there or if soone bullies you, you have to tell ." After I finished, I felt my words were unnecessary, Zhang Che would always stand in front of my mother.
I felt my disposition was too laid-back, not like a usual daughter.
Throughout my ti at the Lin Family, I never once took the initiative to understand Zhang Che and my mom's past, nor did I know why Zhang Che was so protective of her.
Because I thought that was their own business as adults.
Thinking about it now, I always feel that what I've done is not enough.
"Alright, I will take care of myself, don't worry."
My mom tucked my slightly disheveled hair behind my ear, "The clothes in your room's closet, and the hairpins and earrings on the dressing table, take so with you. So were prepared for you by , so by your grandfather. After you go back, get along well with the Snake Lord, okay?"
