"Old Ling, what's wrong with you! Come on, help me, kill me—"
Before Ye Xuan and Ling Jiaze could react to this incident, another woman in the same messy clothes squeezed out from the crowd. She threw herself next to the man on the ground, crying and shouting.
The middle-aged man on the ground was supported by her and stood up, patted her hand reassuringly, and said guiltily: "It's my fault, I was too excited to see Jia Ze, so I rushed up, but forgot He hasn't seen me, my father, for a long time, and he doesn't recognize me. Xiaoling, help me over there."
After finishing speaking, he limped forward two steps with the support of the woman, and walked in front of Ling Jiaze. He seemed to want to stretch out his hand to touch Ling Jiaze's face, but when he was about to touch him, he saw the dirty dust on his hands, and rubbed his hands on his clothes in embarrassment before reaching out again.
Ling Jiaze took a step back uncomfortably to avoid his hand, he paused for a moment, changed his gesture of reaching out to Ling Jiaze to wipe his tears, and after sobbing a few times, he said with tears in his eyes: "Jiaze, I It's Dad, don't you remember me?"
Because of the loud voices of these two people, many people noticed the movement here.
The nature of being lively and gossip-loving has not been affected by the end of the world, and many people who don't buy things have gathered around.
A woman whose clothes were also stained a lot said to Xiaoling excitedly, "Sister, is this the child you often tell me about? Look at his clothes, how neat they are! You worked hard to raise them before." Children, now that children have grown up and are capable, it is time to be filial to you! You will be blessed in the future!"
The middle-aged man next to her said with emotion: "Yes, Lao Ling, you two can now enjoy the blessing of children and grandchildren!"
An old lady wrapped in several layers of cotton-padded clothes yelled at Ling Jiaze in a loud voice, "Young man, don't be stunned, seeing your father fall, why don't you help him over and apologize? Your mother can hardly support him!"
…
Ling Jiaze turned a deaf ear to these voices, and only looked at Ling Yun and Du Xiaoling with cold eyes, gradually recalling some previous scenes in his mind.
The first time I saw Du Xiaoling, this woman was wearing a handmade dark blue cheongsam, with a gentle smile on Ling Yun's arm, and said that she was in love with Ling Yun, and he could call her Aunt Du, and that she also had a My son, who is about the same age as me, can live together and go to school together in the future.
At that time, although Ling Jiaze didn't like her, he still had some respect for her. He also politely called her Aunt Du for a long time, and he was kind to her son.
And Ling Yun has always maintained the image of a perfect man, loving his wife everywhere, caring for both his parents and his stepson. The newly formed family of four soon became an ideal family, more harmonious than many complete families.
Then he discovered the truth of the matter, and made a fuss at home. Only then did he see more of these two people.
The father who used to be a "good man" would be ashamed and annoyed when he threw out the paternity test, would angrily reprimand him as a man who should not investigate his father's private affairs, and would use his father's majesty to order him not to tell the story. Grandfather, when he got his mother's inheritance and threatened him to sign the severance document, he tore off his gentle mask and yelled at him...
And the always gentle stepmother would cry when the incident was first exposed, saying how she couldn't help it and how hard it was to take care of the child by herself; When he was forced to go home, he looked at him viciously, cursing him to die; when he left home, he showed a smug smile, and declared her victory aloofly...
He originally thought that he had seen enough of their other sides at that time, but he never expected that one day he would be able to see the down-and-out sides of these two always glamorous couples who live like successful people.
He was so devastated that he immediately thought it was some hungry and crazy beggar pounced on him to rob, and almost attacked him quickly.
This is really a turn of events.
…
Time passed by, among the three main characters in the story, Ling Jiaze was still standing silently, Ling Yun was still wiping away tears while talking guiltily, while Du Xiaoling couldn't help but comfort her. he.
From a distance, this is simply an iconic scene of an unfilial son turning his face and denying his elderly parents after a sudden disaster.
Ye Xuan, who was standing by the side, thought, according to the TV series before the end of the world, there will be enthusiastic passers-by coming out to persuade the sad parents and scold the unfilial son.
Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with the saying that art comes from life...
Seeing Ling Jiazegan standing still, the woman who spoke first felt that he hadn't heard what she said, and she couldn't hold back anymore, so she said loudly to him again: "Why is the young man just standing still, I don't know your father?" Mommy? You don’t know, your mother talks about you all day long, saying that you are a filial and good boy, why don’t you do anything when you see your parents?”
After she became the first bird, the onlookers also chattered.
"Don't you think that your parents are not going well? You can't do that. It's not easy for your parents to raise you. Now that they are in trouble, how can you not let them go!"
"Does it need to be said? Look at what clothes he is wearing, and what his parents are wearing, and you still don't understand? This means that after having supernatural powers, he left his parents to live a good life, unfilial son!"
Seeing that these people were getting more and more wrong, Ye Xuan poked Ling Jiaze who was next to him, and motioned him to show his attitude so that he could make a decision, whether to leave these two alone or find a place to house them.
Ling Jiaze broke free from the memory, sneered at the two who were wiping their tears, and said in a tone of no fluctuation: "My mother passed away, and I have severed ties with my father. You two have nothing to do with me."
"You, you kid, how can you say that?" Ling Yun covered his heart, and said with a shocked look: "You used to be ignorant, and when you went to other places alone, Dad couldn't control you. But now the society is so Luan, why are you so ignorant to lose your temper with Dad? Do you know how much Dad worried about you during this time, ah?"
Du Xiaoling hurriedly supported Ling Yun, crying, "Jiaze, stop being angry with your father, he has a bad heart, what should you do if you are so angry that he has a disease?"
Someone in the crowd helped, and said to Ling Jiaze: "Blood is thicker than water, young man, this society is like this now, so don't quarrel with your father!"
Seeing that the two of them were entangled endlessly, Ye Xuan was afraid that it would be inconvenient for Ling Jiaze to come forward, so he stood up and stood in front of the two of them, and said with a distant smile: "This gentleman, if I remember correctly, he just said After that, he and your family have severed ties before the end of the world, so there is no reason for a father who didn’t raise a child before the end of the world to rush to let his son take care of him after the end of the world, right?”
After crying for so long and not waiting for Ling Jiaze to pass the steps, Ye Xuan, an "outsider", turned her back. Du Xiaoling was afraid that he would say something, so she hurried to stop him, "This is our family business, what does it have to do with you?"
"Family matters?" Ye Xuan was more or less considerate when talking to Ling Yun, but he was really merciless when talking to Du Xiaoling. He said with a mocking smile: "This aunt , if I remember correctly, you are Xiaosan's superior stepmother, not his biological mother? And what capacity do you use to participate in other people's family affairs?"
Du Xiaoling's face darkened, and she cried too, apparently because she didn't expect that the young man in front of her even knew about the past of the Ling family.
Being told about her disgraceful past, Du Xiaoling was too embarrassed to cry about it brazenly, so she could only retreat awkwardly to support Ling Yun, and stopped talking.
Seeing that Du Xiaoling had failed and returned, Ling Yun had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it by himself. His gaze bypassed Ye Xuan, and looked straight at Ling Jiaze who was standing obliquely behind him. Although tears were still on his face, he still unconsciously used the tone used by the elders to the younger generation before the end of the world, and straightened up Yao Gang said: "Jia Ze, is this your friend? This is our family matter, what's the matter if you let him get involved with an outsider?"
"Mr. Ling, I hope you can understand that among the people present, you are the outsider to me."
"What do you mean?" Ling Yun glanced between Ye Xuan and Ling Jiaze, noticing the close arms of the two of them and Ye Xuan's obviously protective posture, feeling vaguely fond of the two of them. There was speculation about the relationship, and he frowned and said, "Why have you fallen to this point now?"
"What did you say?"
Ye Xuan saw that his words became more and more shameless, and he was afraid that Ling Jiaze, who is a son of man, would not quarrel with him, so he stood up and said: "Mr. Ling, I think the two of us have made our words very clear. Since you are in the last days He broke off the relationship before, and now he has no obligation to care about you, and the things between the two of us have nothing to do with you. "
"Furthermore..." Ye Xuan paused deliberately, and said pointedly: "You are going to find us two, but you can't bring those people who make us upset at first sight, right?"
This kind of rough behavior of giving a stick and a sweet date before the end of the world naturally has no effect on Ling Yun, who has been in the officialdom for many years, but after he has been tortured by the cruel reality after the end of the world for a few months, use it on him With this trick, even if he knew that Ye Xuan might be deceiving him, he still had to grasp at the straw.
Seeing his expression, Ye Xuan knew that he had listened to what he said, so he simply bought a few packs of instant noodles from the person next to him with the crystal core and handed them to him, saying, "The two of us didn't bring anything with us when we came out. You should take the food first." Now, the two of us live in the military region, you can come to us after you think it over."
After speaking, while Ling Yun was thinking, he pulled Ling Jiaze and squeezed out of the crowd, quickly throwing away the two people who stayed behind.

My understanding is that the grievances and entanglements with my father are easier to resolve when he is alive than after he is dead, so the chapters of City B are mainly to solve the problems left over from history
