Lian Lian sighed softly, "Phew, it's very complicated. We're not the only branch of the Lian family, but in this branch, my eldest brother is in charge of the Lian family's company. As the saying goes, don't wash your dirty linen in public. If everyone knows that Lian Xun isn't my eldest brother's biological son, they'll definitely push him down and the whole family will be in chaos."
"And the most important thing is that my eldest brother is seriously ill now. If he knows the truth, I'm afraid he won't live for more than a few months." Lian Lian finished speaking and glanced at Lian Shijian.
"Father is sick? Auntie, why didn't you tell me? "Lian Shijian's little face revealed a nervous expression.
Lian Lian shook her head and sighed, "Your father didn't want you to know at all, and … he didn't want to bring you and your mother back."
"Oh." Lian Shijian's expression was silent. He lowered his eyes and pinched the hem of his skirt with both hands. No one knew what he was thinking.
Zhuo Bufan sorted out the ins and outs of the matter and asked, "Then what do you plan to do now?"
"What other plans can we have, unless we appoint a new heir, but …" Lian Lian paused and looked a little disappointed, "If Shi Jian was a man, I'm afraid we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble."
Although there were calls for equality between men and women, but in the family and large enterprises, men had always occupied the leading role. The position of the patriarch was usually taken over by men.
Zhuo Bufan remained silent.
Lian Lian touched Lian Shijian's little head and a faint smile appeared on her face. "Shi Jian, don't worry. Auntie is still at the front to help you. Was it really my second mother who sent people to kill me? Could it be a misunderstanding? "Lian Shijian stood quietly behind her with a complicated expression on his little face and said softly.
"You're a good girl, but you're too kind. You don't offend others, but it doesn't mean that others won't harm you. An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth." Zhuo Bufan looked up at the starry sky. "Who asked you to be born in such a family?"
What he said was not just for Lian Shijian to hear. Wasn't he also killed by someone in his previous life?
Lian Shijian's eyes were red as he said, "Young Master, I want to be an ordinary person forever. I don't have to work so hard, and I don't have to provoke others."
"God has helped you determine your destiny, but you have to write your own destiny." Zhuo Bufan's gaze was like an abyss, filled with bone-piercing coldness.
Lian Shijian, who was half a meter away from him, suddenly felt so cold that goosebumps rose on his skin. He suddenly found that a thin layer of ice had formed on the stone table in front of Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan stood up and looked at him. "Don't worry. With me around, no one can hurt you."
"Thank you, Young Master," Lian Shijian said softly as he looked at Zhuo Bufan with gentleness and shyness.
The next day, a fine drizzle connected heaven and earth, forming a curtain of rain that looked like a pearl curtain. Summer was always the rainy season.
The raindrops pattered on the muddy ground, creating small splashes. The water droplets splashed onto a pair of light purple embroidered shoes. The owner of the shoes was wearing a set of Chinese-style clothes with a standing collar. Her silky hair fell to the tip of her head. It was none other than Lian Shijian.
Zhuo Bufan had seen many saintesses, and she couldn't help but be stunned by their beauty.
"The Lian Family has a rule. If you go home, you must wear Chinese-style clothes." Lian Shijian seemed to have seen through his doubts and explained.
Zhuo Bufan finally understood. Perhaps this girl had been preparing to return to the Lian Family for a long time.
At this time, two Mercedes-Benz S320 stopped in front of Lian Lian's door. A few bodyguards dressed in black suits got out and walked over with umbrellas. They respectfully called out, "Eldest Miss."
Lian Lian stood under one of the umbrellas and looked at Lian Shijian before looking at Zhuo Bufan. "You want to go as well?"
"Am I not welcome?" Zhuo Bufan said with a faint smile.
After hesitating for a moment, Lian Lian said, "Let's get in the car together."
After driving for nearly an hour, they arrived at the foot of a green mountain in Zhongzhou. Finally, they drove into a classically decorated villa area. Behind them were lush green mountains and in front of them was a rushing river. Moreover, it was only a bridge away from the city center.
To be able to build a villa in such a place, it must be because Zhongzhou father is sick, so you want to come back and see how he is? "
"You heard that father is dying, so you came back to split the family property, right?" Lian Xun had an unyielding expression as he pointed at Lian Shijian's face and scolded, "Don't you know who you are? If you want money, it's simple. Kneel down and lick the soles of my shoes."
