Fall: Rebirth

The vehicle was like a meteor across the sky and arrived at the territory of the Golden Dragon Clan in the blink of an eye.

The guards at the gate saw Ling Han coming back from afar, and all of them showed surprise on their faces. They didn't even have time to think about it, as one of the guards turned around hastily and ran towards the main hall, as if to pass on this good news as quickly as possible.

"Second brother!" Just when Ling Han was leading everyone to the door of the main hall, a clear and pleasant cry, like a yellow oriole singing in a valley, suddenly came.

Then, a petite figure came running from a distance like a cheerful little bird. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Ling Shuang! At this moment, her face was full of joy, and her beautiful eyes were shining with excitement. Before Ling Han could respond, Ling Shuang had already thrown herself into his arms like a whirlwind.

Ling Han just heard his sister Ling Shuang's voice, and for a moment he was a little overwhelmed. Seeing Ling Shuang throw herself into his arms so passionately, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, obviously a little overwhelmed.

Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but laugh.

Ling Han's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a doting smile. He gently patted Ling Shuang's back and said softly: "Shuang'er, dear, brother misses you too. But I still have to go see my father first." After that, he slowly pushed Ling Shuang away from his arms.

After hearing this, although Ling Shuang was reluctant, she still let go of his hand obediently like a sheep.

At this moment, Ling Shuang noticed that there were several other people who came back with Ling Han. She looked at them curiously like a scanner, revealing a hint of doubt and restraint. She asked softly, "Second brother, are these all your friends?"

Ling Han nodded slightly, and everyone responded with friendly smiles.

"Hey, isn't this our second young master? How come he came back at this moment?" When Ling Han led everyone to the front of the hall, before he could open his mouth to salute, a voice as shrill as a crow was heard.

Everyone looked over and saw a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes staring at them with a hostile look on her face. She was Ling Han's stepmother, Hai.

Hai was seen wearing gorgeous clothes and her makeup was as delicate as a doll's. However, her beautiful face looked a little hideous because of the sneer at the corner of her mouth.

Obviously, she had not expected Ling Han to suddenly return with his men, and a hint of barely perceptible surprise and displeasure flashed across her eyes.

"This must be the stepmother that Ling Han mentioned..." Yan Ge lowered his voice and whispered to Yan Luo beside him.

Yan Luo nodded slightly to show his agreement.

Everyone noticed Hai's attitude towards Ling Han, and couldn't help but feel sorry for Ling Han. They looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

However, Ling Han seemed to be accustomed to all this. His face was as calm as a lake and he was not moved at all.

Facing Hai's sarcasm, Ling Han chose to turn a blind eye and walked forward as straight as a green pine tree. Then he respectfully bowed to his parents who were sitting in the hall: "Greetings, father and mother."

Ling Xiao sat on the main seat, his deep eyes were like the warm sunshine in spring, flickering slightly and revealing a hint of kindness and relief. He stared at the majestic Ling Han in front of him, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he nodded gently, and asked softly: "Han'er, you are finally back! Are these friends all your friends?"

Ling Han's voice was as calm as water, without any waves, and he simply responded, "Yeah."

He didn't seem to want to explain too much about it, as if the previous sarcasm was completely insignificant to him and had never even happened.

Seeing this, Hai Shi's dissatisfaction with Ling Han grew stronger. She carefully examined Chu Heng and the others from head to toe, staring at them with a provocative and hostile look, her arrogance and disdain not concealed at all.

However, at this moment, Ling Xuan, who had never said a word, stood quietly in front of the hall, like a bystander, calmly observing everything that happened in front of him. There was no expression on his cold face, as if all these things had nothing to do with him.

Compared to Ling Xuan's calmness, Ling Shuang seemed a little uneasy. She thought to herself: What's wrong with my mother? She actually put on a cold face in front of so many outsiders. It's so embarrassing! If this goes on, won't it bring shame to our family...
