Leng Lintian's eyes passed over the faces of Jing Jia and Ximen Longting, and then fell on Mu Xicheng.

Mu Xicheng raised a hand: "Hi, uncle."

Leng Lintian pursed his lips and looked him up and down for a while.

Mu Xicheng smiled and said, "I'm fine. I just had a discussion with Mr. Menxi."

Ximen Longting looked unhappy: "You are really well-informed!"

It seemed like everyone in the castle was listening to him, but in fact, every time something happened, Leng Lintian would know it immediately.

This proves that his power is still hidden in the castle, he is just reserved and low-key.

"Take your nephew back and educate him well." Ximen Longting said arrogantly as he walked down the stairs, "He is disrespectful to me."

Leng Lintian: "..."

Jing Jiaren stayed in Ximen Longting's arms, feeling a little embarrassed and struggling to get off the ground.

Ximen Longting hugged her and passed by Leng Lintian.

Jing Jiaren couldn't even say hello...

Although Jing Jiaren lived in the Leng Family Castle, she had only a handful of opportunities to meet Leng Lintian, and after she was hidden in the Golden House, she never even saw Leng Lintian.

Normally, Leng Lintian would pay attention to his gaze when meeting him...

Only when he stared at Jing Jiaren's back, his eyes would be calm.

Mu Xicheng saw clearly——

Leng Lintian did not stare at Jing Jiaren directly. Instead, he waited until Ximen Longting carried Jing Jiaren down and then stared at them deeply.

In those eyes, there is deep affection and longing that cannot be hidden at all...

"Aunt, let's have dinner together tonight." Mu Xicheng raised his voice.

Jing Jiaren poked her beautiful face from Ximen Longting's shoulder: "Maybe a certain man won't agree, I have to ask."

"I don't agree." Ximen Longting replied directly.

Mu Xicheng smiled and said, "We've already met each other. Out of politeness, why don't we have dinner as a family and introduce your relationship to me properly?"

This is the most basic etiquette.

Jing Jiaren thought for a moment: "Let's take a look and I'll give you an answer later."

What she was thinking about was that Meng Kui's matter was going to make a big progress, and she had to get this couple settled quickly, which would also be considered as a solution to her worries.

Ximen Longting kept walking, followed by several bodyguards, holding Jing Jiaren as he walked farther and farther until he passed the corner and could no longer be seen...

Mu Xicheng smiled playfully: "Even if you look forward to seeing her, she won't come back."

Leng Lintian came back to his senses and looked away calmly.

"Uncle, if you love her so much, why would you let her go?"

"..."

"What you like has never failed and will never give up." Mu Xicheng asked curiously, "This is not in line with your style."

Leng Lintian's purple lips were seductive, and he suddenly smiled and said: "I insist."

"..."

"Persevere until you can't persist anymore, persist until you are desperate."

He once risked everything, even his life, to get her back.

Mu Xicheng shrugged: "So?"

"The Leng Lintian of the past is already dead."

He stepped down the stairs, his back looking solemn.

"Now Leng Lintian is like a walking corpse..." Seeing her happiness is the whole meaning of his life.

His quiet voice came...

Mu Xicheng saw that he looked extremely lonely, because the numerous injuries on his body had not yet healed, and he was walking with a bit of a stutter.

Mu Xicheng quickened his pace and followed him, lending a hand to support him.
