Ling Hao noticed the change in the expressions of the three people in the room. Even though he hated them in his heart, his handsome face still showed the same excited expression. He nodded his head vigorously and said, "Grandpa, Third Uncle, this time it's absolutely true, there's no doubt about it!"
"Hao Er, where is your Brother Yun? Did you bring him here?" Ling Xiao's face would turn a strange shade of red whenever he was agitated. He asked with a trembling voice, "Hao Er, where is Brother Yun? Did you bring him here?"
A look of shame appeared in Ling Hao's eyes. He lowered his head slightly and said the answer that he had already prepared in his heart.
"Grandpa, Third Uncle, don't worry. I only found out about Little Brother Ling Yun's whereabouts this afternoon. I was afraid to disappoint Grandpa and Third Uncle again, so I followed the information provided by Third Uncle and compared it with the others. I only dared to report it after confirming it."
Ling Lie had been observing Ling Hao's expression. After calming himself down, he sat down slowly and coughed lightly. "Hao Er, tell Grandpa, where is your brother now? How is he doing? "
Ling Hao nodded and replied obediently. "Grandpa, Brother Ling Yun is now in Qingshui City of Jiangnan Province. He's a student in Grade 12 Class 6 of Qingshui City's First High School …"
"Qingshui City of Jiangnan Province?"
Ling Lie, Ling Xiao, and Cui Lao couldn't help but look at each other again when they heard Qingshui City of Jiangnan Province.
The older, the wiser. Ling Lie shifted his gaze away slightly and stared at Ling Hao again. "Hao Er, you haven't brought the person back for a DNA test yet. How are you so sure that it's your brother Ling Yun?"
Ling Hao was prepared for these questions before he came. "Grandpa, it's different this time. You'll understand once you take a look at Brother Ling Yun's photo."
Ling Hao took out his phone and showed Ling Yun's photo to Ling Lie respectfully.
Ling Lie took Ling Hao's phone with trembling hands and looked at the photo of Ling Yun. Then, he raised his head slightly to look at his third son, Ling Xiao. Suddenly, he was stunned, and tears streamed down his face!
Ling Xiao was naturally the most excited person at this moment. He had forgotten that the person holding the phone was his father. In a flash, he appeared beside Ling Lie and snatched the phone from his hand.
One look! Just one glance was enough!
Ling Yun's broad forehead, sharp eyebrows, straight nose bridge, and sharp lips were practically carved out of the same mold as Ling Xiao when he was young!
Blood was thicker than water. These words were not made up. Ling Xiao only needed one look to know that the handsome youth in the photo was undoubtedly his biological son!
As for that pair of eyes that naturally displayed a kind of arrogance and disdain, even though it didn't resemble Ling Xiao's, it was extremely similar to Ling Xiao's true love, Ling Yun's birth mother!
"The heavens do have eyes!" Ling Lie, who was over seventy years old, stood up straight and let out a long cry. He didn't even bother to wipe the hot tears from his eyes!
Cui Lao, who had been standing beside Ling Lie, naturally saw Ling Yun's expression. He was also moved to tears, and he couldn't help but clench his fists. "Family Head, we don't even need a DNA test. He's practically twenty years younger than Third Young Master!" Cui Lao exclaimed.
Ling Xiao's hands trembled as he held Ling Hao's phone. He stared at Ling Yun's eyes on the screen. His Adam's apple trembled uncontrollably as he choked on his words!
Ling Xiao raised his hand and wiped the hot tears from his eyes with the back of his hand. He pointed at Ling Yun's photo and asked, "Hao Er, what's your brother's name now?"
Ling Hao smiled and said, "Third Uncle, my brother's name is Ling Yun. That has always been his name in the household register."
"Just Ling Yun?! Good, good, good! "Ling Xiao nodded his head in excitement. It seemed like there was nothing else he could say.
Ling Lie finally wiped the tears from his face. He turned to Ling Hao and asked, "You said that Ling Yun is a student at Qingshui High in Qingshui City of Jiangnan Province?"
"Grandpa, yes!" Ling Hao nodded.
Ling Lie nodded his head and continued asking, "Then did you find out about your brother's family situation? Who adopted him?"
"Grandpa, the reason I can confirm that this is my brother is because I've used various methods to investigate." Ling Hao answered immediately.
"First of all, we've already seen my brother's appearance. Secondly, my brother was indeed adopted by someone. This is all recorded by the local police. Lastly, the person who adopted my brother is a woman called Qin Qiuyue. She's an ordinary doctor who runs a local clinic. She also has a biological daughter called Ning Lingyu …"
Ling Lie suddenly waved his hand to stop Ling Hao from continuing. He turned to look at Cui Lao, and both of them were shocked and suspicious. Ling Lie shook his head and asked Ling Hao, "Then … who is Ling Yun's adoptive father? Have you found out? "
Ling Hao was puzzled. Why would Grandpa be concerned about Ling Yun's adoptive father when he had already found out about Ling Yun's whereabouts?
However, he smiled and shook his head. "Grandpa, according to the information I have, this woman has never been married. As for the rest, I haven't found out …"
Ling Lie frowned and slowly sat back in his chair. He kept repeating in his heart, "Qin … Ning … That's impossible. How could there be such a coincidence? Impossible, absolutely impossible …"
Ling Lie suddenly raised his head and asked Ling Hao in a low voice, "Hao Er, how many people know that you have found Ling Yun?"
Ling Hao smiled and replied confidently, "Grandpa, didn't you tell me that this matter can only be carried out in secret? This matter can only be carried out in secret and cannot be leaked. Therefore, as soon as I confirmed my younger brother's identity, I immediately came to report to you. Even my father has not been informed of this matter. "
Ling Lie's eyes were filled with admiration. He praised Ling Hao three times and said, "Good boy, you've done a great job. You've done a great service to the Ling Family!"
Ling Hao was secretly happy to receive Ling Lie's praise, but he didn't show it on his face. He shook his head slightly and said, "Grandpa, it's my duty as the eldest grandson of the Ling Family to look for my brother. I don't dare to take credit for it."
"Okay!" Ling Lie nodded and smiled. "Remember, before you bring your brother back to the family, this is a top secret of the Ling Family. Do you understand, Hao Er?"
Ling Hao agreed and retreated to the side obediently. He did not say anything else.
Next, Ling Lie began to make a series of arrangements. He pondered for a while, then said to the three people in the room, "Who do you think is the most suitable person to let Yun Er return to the clan?"
Ling Xiao was extremely anxious to fly to Qingshui City to fetch his son back to his family. Hence, he said without hesitation, "Father, please let me go, I …"
Ling Lie shook his head slowly and said resolutely, "Third Brother, I understand how you feel, but you must not go for this! There are too many people watching you. I think you know this better than me! "
Ling Xiao stepped forward and said anxiously, "But …"
Ling Lie waved his hand to stop Ling Xiao from continuing. Then, he said in a low voice, "As for the matter of bringing Yun Er back, not only you, but no one in the Ling Family can do it. In my opinion …"
Ling Lie turned back to look at Cui Lao.
Cui Lao and Ling Lie had been together for a long time. He smiled and nodded his head, saying to Ling Xiao, "Third Young Master, the Patriarch is right. No one in the Ling Family is suitable. How about I make this trip for you?"
"Cui Lao, this … Since we've found Yun 'er, it's just a small matter to bring him back and let him acknowledge his ancestors. How could we trouble you to make this trip personally?" Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment before he furrowed his brows.
Indeed, Ling Yun had been living in Qingshui City of Jiangnan Province for 18 years. Until now, he was safe and sound. Now that he had been found by the Ling Family, all he needed to do was to acknowledge his ancestors. To the Ling Family, this was really not a big deal.
Cui Lao chuckled. "How can it be a small matter for Ling Yun to return to the family? When I look at him, it's as if I see you in the past. I really like this child. Let me do this for you … "
Ling Xiao was grateful, but he could only look at Ling Lie helplessly.
Ling Lie was overjoyed that he had found his precious grandson. It was his intention to let Cui Lao take action. Hence, he nodded and smiled. "Third Brother, I think this matter is settled. Logically speaking, I should be the one to bring my grandson back personally. However, the moment I make a move, the spies of those families will immediately find out. Hence, I'll have to trouble Cui Lao to make a trip for the Ling Family. This way, we can all feel at ease."
"Yes, Father!" Father! "Thinking that he would soon be able to see his own flesh and blood, Ling Xiao's heart trembled with excitement.
Cui Lao smiled as he asked the beaming Ling Lie, "Family Head, if you don't have any other instructions, shall I make a move now?"
Ling Lie laughed and shook his head. "Look at you. You're already so old, but you're even more anxious than me! You've waited for eighteen years, a little longer won't make a difference! I'll ask Hao Er to call his father over, and we'll make a detailed plan. It won't be too late for you to make a move after that! "
With that, Ling Lie turned to Ling Hao. "Hao Er, hurry up and invite your father over for a secret family meeting!" If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for me at Qidian (). Your support is my greatest motivation.) (To be continued.)
