Old Man Li was in a hurry to go to the study to avoid Li Jinnian upstairs, but Li Jinnian had already heard everything.
"I heard Jinnian is back. Where is he?" Li Ronghuan pretended not to hear him. He turned around and looked upstairs. "Is he still sleeping upstairs? Brat, don't you know Second Uncle is back?"
On the second floor, Li Jinnian, who had been listening for a while, slowly retreated to his room. Then, he opened and closed the door again before slowly walking up to the first floor.
Footsteps could be heard coming from the stairs. Old Man Li's angry rebuke came from downstairs. "Why do you care about an outsider? Second Uncle? In his eyes, the Li family is an outsider! "
Li Ronghuan turned a deaf ear and sped up the stairs. Before he reached the second floor, he stopped and looked up at the young man standing at the stairs.
"Jinnian, long time no see." Li Ronghuan smiled with deep surprise on his face. At 48 years old, he didn't look old. He had the casual temperament of an artist from head to toe. Li Ronghuan resembled Old Madam Li the most. When he smiled, the corners of his eyes curved. When he smiled, it made people feel like he was a few years younger.
Li Jinnian looked at the middle-aged man who smiled at him. He saw a sense of familiarity on the man's face. He realized … he and Li Ronghuan somewhat resembled each other.
He didn't look like his father, but he looked like his uncle!
Some of the past surged up like a tide. Li Jinnian couldn't help but tighten his grip on the camouflage travel bag.
"Master, I'm not being paranoid. Look at Jinnian. His nose, his mouth … why do they look so much like Rong Huan?"
"He really doesn't look like Old Man Yu's eldest son at all. The more I look at him, the more he looks like Old Man Yu's second son. I've never seen a nephew who looks so much like Uncle. "
"Isn't that so? The first time I almost thought he was Rong Huan's child."
"He can't really be Rong Huan's child, right? Isn't there a paternity test now? Should we check it out? How can he look so much like Uncle? "
Rumors and slanders accompanied his parents' arguments. Later, a paternity test was done and it was confirmed that he wasn't Second Uncle's child.
Later, the rumors died down, and his mother became more and more silent. In the end, she fell ill and passed away, leaving him alone to face the entire Li family.
It seemed that Li Ronghuan did not return home much at that time. Later, she left home completely. In his memory, he had met Li Ronghuan once eleven years ago. But just now, he heard Li Ronghuan say that she had not returned home for eighteen years.
So when he saw Li Ronghuan eleven years ago … he was the only one who saw him?
He didn't speak for a long time, and there was still a trace of unfamiliarity in his eyes. Li Ronghuan's smile deepened, and a few more wrinkles appeared around his curved eyes. "Good boy, don't tell me you don't even recognize Second Uncle. I'm your second uncle, Li Ronghuan. Do you remember? Could it be that the army is so busy that your memory deteriorates? "
She was very enthusiastic. As she spoke, there was deep concern in her eyes. This made Li Jinnian, who had never received concern from the Li family, feel very unfamiliar.
He slowly loosened his grip and nodded. "Second Uncle."
"So you still remember that I'm your second uncle. It's good that you didn't forget, it's good that you didn't." Li Ronghuan's smile towards Li Jinnian was much more genuine. He didn't even see Old Man Li downstairs.
His gaze fell on the camouflage travel bag in Li Jinnian's hand. Li Ronghuan's smile faded. "Second Uncle just came back, and you're already going back to the army?"
