Rumor has it that the young master has a hidden illness

The atmosphere froze instantly. Lin Lulu could even see Jing Sichen's face suddenly move back half an inch, as if he was disgusted that she was dirty.

His gaze was sharp and cold, inch by inch, like a sharp knife cutting across her face.

She suddenly regretted saying those words.

From childhood to adulthood, all she thought about was how to make money; she had no time to like people.

He stared at her. "Who is it?"

His powerful aura erupted like an iceberg, as if he would wipe out the person the moment she uttered a name.

"Isn't this my privacy?" she mustered her courage to speak up. "Do I need your permission to like someone? You're not my husband! Why are you being so nosy?"

He narrowed his eyes dangerously and roared, "Who is it?!"

She shrank back in fright, but continued, "Uncle, if my actions these past two days have caused any misunderstanding, I apologize. But we're not a good match, so please stay away from me in the future."

Visibly, his face grew increasingly dark, and a chilling aura emanated from his body, all directed at her.

She felt guilty and didn't dare to look at him; the hairs on her body stood on end.

The large hand around her waist withdrew at that moment, and her body, which had been lifted up, suddenly fell back to its original position. Her heart seemed to fall with it. Watching his departing figure, the resolute words he spoke before leaving echoed in her ears.

"Fine! From now on, I won't bother with you anymore!"

"big……"

She silenced him at that moment, clenched her fists, and tried hard to suppress the urge to call out to him.

She knew perfectly well that this was wrong.

She is not in a position to be involved with any man right now.

The older man, on the other hand, is a mysterious and dangerous figure, and one should especially avoid getting involved with him.

So be it!

That's good too!

In any case, she has always handled all the difficult problems on her own.

The same will continue in the future.

They become weak once someone helps them.

She cannot be weak!

Why do I feel empty inside, as if something is missing?

The man's words from earlier echoed in her ears: "You've fallen for me."

She couldn't help but ask herself: Have I fallen for him?

"How could that be!" she exclaimed in shock.

"You scared yourself? Are you a coward?" Jingliang's voice came from the doorway.

Lin Lulu looked at him, took a deep breath, quickly composed herself, walked over, and asked, "Little Liang, you're still awake?"

"This is the first time I've ever seen anyone make him so angry! What did you do to him?" Jingliang asked curiously. "I've tried so hard for so long, and every time I try to make him angry, all I get in return is his cold retaliation."

"Make him angry?" Lin Lulu asked, puzzled. "Why would you want to make him angry?"

"That guy's expressionless; he never seems to be interested in joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness." Jingliang shrugged. "So, my biggest wish is to make him furious! Because making him angry seems a little easier than making him laugh."

"Does he...not smile much?" Lin Lulu asked.

But he seemed to smile quite a lot in front of her!

Moreover, there was anger.

Just now, after he said that he had someone he liked, she seemed to see a hint of hurt in his eyes.

It was only a fleeting moment, and she thought she had misread it, so she didn't investigate further.

Looking back now, I realize that I was truly hurt.

An indescribable emotion welled up from her heart as she heard the screeching sound of a car starting up rapidly.

Did the uncle leave?

"Teach me!" Jing Liang said urgently. "If you teach me how to make him angry, I can give you an extra allowance! How much do you want?"

Lin Lulu's eyes lit up when she heard that she could get more pocket money.

but……

"Don't you two get along really well? Why do you have to make him angry?" She seemed to be defending him. "Does he often bully you and tease you? But actually, he's a really good person! Don't be fooled by his cold exterior. Look beyond the surface and see the essence. He's genuinely good to you."

Jing Liang looked Lin Lulu up and down. "Who said I made him angry because I felt he treated me badly?"

Lin Lulu: "Why is that?"

"I just feel sorry for him!" Jingliang sighed. "He's almost thirty years old, but he's never even tried to cry or laugh out loud. I want him to live a normal life, to experience what everyone else feels. I don't want him to live such a repressed life."

Upon hearing this, Lin Lulu was stunned.

Although she didn't know what had happened, the fact that a child like Jingliang was so concerned about the old man showed that the old man must have had a very hard time all these years.

A feeling of guilt and heartache welled up inside me.

Perhaps she shouldn't have said that.

It's too late to regret it now!

"Are you going to tell me or not?" Jingliang stamped his foot impatiently. "It's not like it's some secret technique, why would we need to hide it?"

"I don't know either." Lin Lulu sat down against the wall, her gaze unfocused and wandering. "I think he seems to get angry easily in front of me. And I've seen him smile. Although it was a very unnatural smile, he... he was definitely smiling, and he seemed very happy. His eyes were like stars, very beautiful."

But we'll never see it again!

The thought of this outcome made her very sad and upset.

"Tch! Fine, I won't tell you then!" Jingliang snorted. "I don't care! I can figure it out myself!"

Then, I went back to my room.

He picked up his phone and immediately dialed Jing Sichen's number.

"After you left, your wife's mood wasn't affected at all! She scrolls through Douyin and Weibo, laughing her head off! She's just a heartless little fool. I'll kick her out right now, okay? Let her fend for herself, just leave her alone!"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a busy signal.

When I called back, the phone was already switched off.

The night was stiflingly hot, making people extremely irritable.

Jing Sichen drove at high speed until he stopped at a cemetery.

In the vast cemetery, there are only two graves.

He stood before the grave, his dark eyes flashing with a cold, detached light.

"Dad, Mom," he said softly, "I married that girl. I thought life would be different because of her. But nothing has changed, it's even... worse. Don't worry, whoever killed you, I will find them and avenge you!"

**

Lin Lulu tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, her mind replaying all the things that had happened between her and the uncle.

The acceptance letter lay on the pillow beside her, but because her husband hadn't returned all night, her joy was severely dampened, like a double-digit percentage.

Just then, my phone rang.

Upon closer inspection, it was an unfamiliar number.

After pressing the call button, a familiar male voice came through the receiver: "Haven't seen you for days, have you missed me?"

It's the masked man's voice!
