half thorns, half joy

Deng Langyue has lived under Deng Li's discipline for these years. Although she is not very accomplished and has no good reputation, she can be said to be quite respectful to Deng Li, her uncle.

So when Deng Langyue launched a rebellion this time, Deng Li didn't take it seriously at all. He felt that Deng Langyue was venting his dissatisfaction at most, and at best it was just a child's nonsense.

After a lesson, you will be obedient, and you don't need to take it to heart.

Because of this, Deng Li did not have any doubts about Deng Langyue, nor did he restrict Deng Langyue's authority and freedom.Deng Langyue pretended to agree to the marriage, and her treatment after returning to Deng's house was the same as before, without any change.

Deng Langyue is still the young son of the Deng family who is highly regarded in the Deng family.

In the past, Deng Langyue was used to this title, or she still enjoyed it a little bit. After all, as Deng Li's nephew, she enjoyed more love and care than Deng Li's own son.

But now, Deng Langyue is already sober.

When he was young, his uncle loved him because his mother passed away early, so he felt sorry for him.Later, he directly became a pawn to be used.

"Heh." Deng Langyue lay on the rocking chair, looking at the blue sky and white clouds that were about an inch in size.

In the past, he lived a muddled life, but never realized that the blue sky and white clouds are so beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful that makes people feel at ease.

The wooden door squeaked, and the servant came out of the courtyard with a plate.

In fact, there are other doors in the side courtyard. The servant wanted to come to greet Deng Langyue today, so he walked through the door connected to Deng Langyue's courtyard.

"Young master, afternoon tea is ready, do I need to bring it to you?" The nanny walked up to Deng Langyue and asked Deng Langyue respectfully.

Deng Langyue was in a daze, but his wandering thoughts were interrupted. He was stunned for a moment before shaking his head, "No need."

The nanny hummed and was about to turn around and leave.

Out of the corner of her eye, Deng Langyue glanced at the door where the nanny came out. She didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly said to the nanny: "I'll rest for a while, please tell people not to come and disturb me."

"Yes."

After the nanny left, Deng Langyue's eyes were fixed on the door. He stared at it for a long time, then sat up hesitantly.

Deng Li went out today, and it would be evening when he came back. He had a whole afternoon and was free.

Rather than...

Deng Langyue thought of the shocking scene he saw when he accidentally walked into the side courtyard and saw behind that door, and he became curious again.

In the past, Deng Langyue was not interested in Deng Li's private affairs, mainly because he respected Deng Li, and felt that as a junior, he should not interfere in the private affairs of the elders.But now, since he has chosen the path to protect himself, he can cross some lines that were observed in the past.

In just tens of seconds, Deng Langyue's heart turned dozens of times.

Finally, he decided to go in and have a look.

Maybe some useful clues or information can be found from that woman.

Deng Langyue got up immediately, looked left and right, held her breath and listened for a while, and after making sure that there was no one around the courtyard, she sneaked into the side courtyard.

The courtyard was still exactly the same as when he came in last time, without any change, Deng Langyue glanced at it casually, and went straight to the room in the middle.

The door button was still buckled, but it was not locked. Deng Langyue pushed it lightly, and it opened.

At that moment, his heart was beating wildly. Under the pressure of being afraid of being discovered by the nannies and not knowing what the situation of the woman inside was, cold sweat broke out on his nervous palms and back.

"Ah!" Deng Langyue pushed open the door and let out a low cry in fright.

The woman in the room was wrapped in a cloak made of mink fur, and she was looking at Deng Langyue with doubts and indifference. The light in the room was dim, and the woman's long hair was scattered on both sides of her face, which was as white as toilet paper. The ghost in the movie.

Realizing that her voice would attract the nanny, Deng Langyue shut her mouth immediately, and after a few seconds of staring at the woman in the room, she quickly entered the room and closed the door behind her backhand.

"Don't call me, I'm not a bad person." Deng Langyue said something wrong no matter how you listened.

But the woman didn't respond, she didn't even have a panicked expression on her face, she just stared at Deng Langyue without saying a word.

Time was running out, Deng Langyue knew that he couldn't stay here for too long, he licked his lips, lowered his voice and asked the woman, "Who are you and why are you here? Is there anything you need me to do for you?"

The woman still didn't speak, there was cake and tea on the blanket at her feet, presumably it was brought by the nanny just now.

"Are you unable to speak?" Deng Langyue saw that the woman seemed weak and not aggressive, so she relaxed her vigilance, approached her slightly, and continued, "Then I'll ask you a question, can you answer it with a nod or shake your head?" ?”

However, the woman still didn't respond.

Deng Langyue was anxious and didn't know what to do. He began to wonder if the person in front of him had been imprisoned by his uncle to become a fool.

Deng Langyue murmured as she thought about it.

When the woman heard this, the way she looked at Deng Langyue changed, and when Deng Langyue scratched her head and didn't know what to do, she spoke softly.

"uncle?"

"Ah, yes, Deng Li is my uncle. My name is Deng Langyue. Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person. I'm just curious about why you're here and if there's anything I can do to help you." Deng Langyue saw the woman finally With a response, he excitedly explained a lot.

But what Deng Langyue didn't expect was that the woman was silent again.

Deng Langyue sighed helplessly, feeling a little crazy, he began to feel that perhaps his assumptions just now were all wrong.

This woman is useless to him at all.

Forget it, let's go back, now it's time to pretend to be a good nephew to let uncle relax his vigilance, if something goes wrong, it won't be worthwhile.

Deng Langyue was about to leave, but was stopped by a woman.

As soon as the woman opened her mouth, Deng Langyue stood there motionless as if struck by lightning.

"I know about your biological father," the woman said.

Father.

This word, to Deng Langyue, is too unfamiliar and too far away.Since he has cognition and memory, he has nothing to do with this word.

It's not that he hasn't guessed who his father is, but every time his curiosity is stifled by his mother's abnormal behavior and his uncle's bad words.

So what he probably knew was that his father was an irresponsible man who played with his mother's feelings and heart, and left after his mother became pregnant, and he didn't know where he went.

And the mother also suffered from mental problems after being abandoned.

As time passed, Deng Langyue was no longer curious, let alone who his biological father was, because the experience related to it was too painful.

Now that he is an adult, who his biological father is is no longer important to him.

Before the woman in front of him said this, he had always thought this way.

But now...

"What did you say?" Deng Langyue looked disbelieving, deliberately suppressing the lowest voice, trembling with nowhere to hide.

The woman raised her head and looked at Deng Langyue with unusually firm eyes, "It's true."

"...Tell me, what do you know." Deng Langyue panted, "Who are you, and why do you know about my biological father?"

The woman sneered, "I'm your uncle's imprisoned lover, can't you see that?"

The woman said, changing her sitting position.

The iron chain on her ankle also moved, making a crisp clanking sound.

"...Lover?" Although Deng Langyue had guessed this identity a long time ago, she still couldn't help being a little surprised and uncomfortable when she heard the woman say it in person.

That sense of discomfort made Deng Langyue, a scumbag, instantly deepen her understanding of the two idioms of "sounding" and "clothed and beastly".

However, this is not the most important right now.

The most important thing right now is the news about my father.

Deng Langyue suppressed the disdain and disgust in her eyes, frowned, and asked the woman with a serious face, "You just said you knew about my biological father, what do you know?"

The woman didn't answer immediately, she smiled shortly, "You want to know? Yes, I have an exchange."
