I'm strong, I know

Jiang Lin parked the car at the door, but he didn't get out of the car. He dug out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. It was a little wrinkled, probably because he accidentally pressed it last night, but it didn't matter, as long as he could smoke.

Surrounded by green smoke, Jiang Lin regained a trace of calm.

He pressed the car window and looked up at the house not far away.

This is a duplex single-family villa, and it is also Jiang Lin's nominal home. Since he left at the age of 16, he has returned to this home very few times.

But this year he has to come back.

Because he wanted to let the family members know about Chen Mo's existence.

He didn't expect or even hope that the people in this family could accept Chen Mo, he just informed them that he had found a life partner, and made them stop thinking about marrying so-and-so.

After a cigarette burned to the end, Jiang Lin closed the car window and got out of the car.

When he opened the door and walked in, the lively voices in the living room suddenly disappeared, and everyone looked at Jiang Lin, the unexpected guest.

Shen Jing was the first to react, and she quickly got up to meet her.

"I didn't say anything when I came back, I thought you wouldn't come back this year."

Shen Jing wanted to help Jiang Lin take off his clothes, but Jiang Lin avoided it. Shen Jing raised her hand in embarrassment. She gave a wry smile and stood there uncomfortably. Those who skipped the living room went back to their rooms.

The atmosphere was very quiet throughout the process.

Terribly quiet.

Shen Jing saw Jiang Tianlin's face slowly turning livid.

"Oh, what do you all want to eat at noon today? Order whatever you want, and I'll make it for you guys."

Seeing that Jiang Tianlin was about to lose his temper, Shen Jing hurried up to ease the gloomy atmosphere.

"Auntie, I want to eat king crab!"

A little boy yelled loudly, and the parents on the side pulled his clothes in embarrassment, but the little boy was unmoved.

"Auntie said, you can eat whatever you want!"

Shen Jing immediately took over the words, "Yes, yes, yes, my aunt said, you can eat whatever you want."

Jiang Tianlin looked at Shen Jing coldly. Although Shen Jing was afraid in his heart, he could only pretend that he didn't see anything.

Several friends also seemed to see Jiang Tianlin's displeasure, and they all knew some news about Jiang Tianlin's discord with Jiang's neighbors, and they were afraid of seeing the conflict between the master's family, so they all raised their glasses to let Jiang Tianlin Lin drinks tea with them instead of wine.

Jiang Tianlin suppressed the displeasure in his heart and suppressed his hostility.

Seeing this scene, Shen Jing breathed a sigh of relief. She asked the aunt who was in charge of cooking to write down the dishes that everyone wanted to eat, and gave the aunt enough cash, and the aunt went out to buy.

She looked up at the room adjacent to Jiang upstairs, looked at the closed door, and sighed.

Turning to look at Jiang Tianlin's position, Shen Jing still went upstairs.

In the room, Jiang Lin was strumming an old guitar.

There was a knock on the door, and he knew it was silence, but he didn't want to go to open the door.

"Xiao Jiang, open the door for Mom, Mom has something to tell you."

Shen Jing's almost begging voice sounded outside the door, Jiang Lin's heart moved, and finally got up to open the door for Shen Jing.

Seeing Jiang Lin sitting back at the desk and strumming the guitar expressionlessly, Shen Jing let out a long sigh in her heart, she turned and closed the door, and then sat next to Jiang Lin.

"How are you doing these days?"

Jiang Neighbor was still strumming the guitar whose sound had changed, he nodded slightly, "It's not bad."

"Xiaojiang, it's my mother who is sorry for you."

Jiang Lin stopped what he was doing, and turned his head slightly, "Mom, no one is sorry for anyone, it's all your own choice, isn't it?"

"Yes, but if it wasn't for your mother insisting on marrying your father, there wouldn't be such a big rift between you."

Shen Jing wiped away her tears, recalling the past.

Jiang Neighbor doesn't like others to memory kill him.

"Mom, as I said, he can choose not to be my father, and I can choose not to be his son."

There is no need to settle for some relationships.

Love is like this, friendship is like this, and so is family affection.

"But blood is thicker than water. You can choose your relationship, but the Jiang family's blood will always flow on your body."

Jiang Lin suddenly put the guitar in his hand on the table, and the sudden sound startled Shen Jing.

"Do you have to tie me up with this?"

Shen Jing turned pale, "No, that's not what Mom meant..."

"Forget it, Mom, you'd better leave the matter between me and him alone."

Shen Jing was attacked by a sense of powerlessness.

She has always liked Jiang Tianlin since she was ten years old, even in her fifties, sixties, seventies, until she faced death, she would love Jiang Tianlin as always.

But Jiang Tianlin didn't have her in his heart.

She has always known about this.

But she has been deceiving herself, trying to use the excuse that Jiang Tianlin actually loves her and he is just not good at words to numb herself, so that she will never lift the gauze that covers up the truth.

But the existence of Jiang Neighbor reminds Jiang Tianlin all the time that they shouldn't be married, let alone give birth to Jiang Neighbor.

Jiang Tianlin and Shen Jing's father are old comrades-in-arms, but Shen Jing's father died heroically in the line of duty to protect Mr. Jiang and several other comrades-in-arms during a mission. Mr. Jiang naturally took over the responsibility of taking care of Shen Jing's mother and daughter.

Jiang Tianlin is one year older than Shen Jing. For the convenience of taking care of him, Jiang Tianlin's father made Shen Jing transfer to Jiang Tianlin's school.

Since then, Jiang Tianlin has another task that must be performed after school——

Send Shen Jing home.

But Jiang Tianlin hated children, especially Shen Jing.

He doesn't like half of his love being divided by others.

But no matter what, Jiang Tianlin couldn't get rid of the burden of Shen Jing.

So much so that Jiang Tianlin chose to go directly to the army to stay.

But the old man was so focused on repaying the life-saving grace of his comrades-in-arms that year, he didn't notice his son's resistance to Shen Jing at all, and even forced Jiang Tianlin to marry Shen Jing later.

Before Mr. Jiang asked Jiang Tianlin to marry Shen Jing, he had a long talk with Shen Jing. He talked about Shen Jing's father, and also talked about Shen Jing's father asking Mr. Jiang to take care of their mother and daughter.

When it came to the emotional part, Mr. Jiang even shed tears.

He asked Shen Jing if he would marry Jiang Tianlin.

Shen Jing hesitated.

She knew that Jiang Tianlin had liked a girl for many years, and she also knew that Jiang Tianlin had always hated herself, but he was the one she had loved for more than ten years, so how could he be willing to just give up.

She is also human and has selfishness.

She didn't want her love for so many years to go to waste.

Finally, she said yes.

Jiang Tianlin was forcibly taken back to the Jiang family and married Shen Jing.

Jiang Tianlin treated her with such an attitude, and she had no complaints, after all, she was the one who brought about their tragedy.

Even why there will be Jiang Neighbor in the future is also pushed by her.

Shen Jing still remembered that it was also a snowy day. She received a letter, which said that Jiang Tianlin had personally signed it. She did not open it to read it without authorization, but judging from the beautiful handwriting, she knew who gave it to Jiang Tianlin. written letter.

She put the letter on Jiang Tianlin's desk.

When Jiang Tianlin came home at night, he was as indifferent as ever, and she was already used to it.

Jiang Tianlin saw the letter on the table, looked at Shen Jing very vigilantly, and left quietly, Jiang Tianlin got up and closed the door of the study.

Shen Jing just stood outside the door, listening to the sound of Jiang Tianlin tearing open the letter, and hearing Jiang Tianlin crying bitterly, but she knew that his pain was brought to him by herself, so she had no right to blame Jiang Tianlin.

Jiang Tianlin went out.

When he came back again, he smelled of alcohol and looked like he had drunk a lot.

Shen Jing patiently helped him scrub his body, and brought him hangover soup.

When Shen Jing was about to go back to her room to sleep, Jiang Tianlin grabbed her hand, but she didn't break free.

Jiang Neighbor came here at night.

Originally, Jiang Tianlin didn't want this child, he just waited for the divorce of Shen Jing after the death of Mr. Jiang.

But the news of Shen Jing's pregnancy was still found out by Mr. Jiang.

When Jiang Tianlin was about to take Shen Jing to the hospital, Mr. Jiang came to the door directly.

The old man paid for it with his life. To be quiet, he had to give birth to a child, and he named the child—Jiang Lin, regardless of gender.

Because Shen Jing's father is named Shen Yanlin.

The old man used the most practical and simple way to commemorate the comrade who sacrificed for himself.

Ever since Shen Jing became pregnant with Jiang Neighbor, Mr. Jiang's health has also started to deteriorate. What he looks forward to most every day is the birth of his grandson.

But on the night Jiang Lin was born, Mr. Jiang braved the heavy rain to go to the hospital in order to see his grandson.

The old man's body has long been exhausted, and the only thing he cares about is his newborn grandson.

That night, Xiao Jiang in the delivery room was sleeping soundly, but Mr. Jiang in the ward was separated from him by yin and yang.

Because of this, Jiang Tianlin transferred half of his hatred for Shen Jing to Jiang Neighbor.

So it was not unreasonable for Shen Jing to blame her.

For so many years, Jiang Tianlin has always thought that he does not have Jiang Lin as his son, and Jiang Lin has always believed that Jiang Tianlin is not his father.

Both parties act as if each other does not exist.

Originally, there were no disturbances in the ordinary life of parallel lines, but the dropout of Jianglin Junior High School seemed to throw a giant meteorite into this pool of stagnant water.

Although Jiang Tianlin didn't want to see Jiang Neighbor, he was still Jiang's family after all. If he was Jiang's family, there was only one way to go - the way that old man Jiang walked with him.

But obviously Jiang Neighbor didn't want to.

So the father and son broke out in the most serious quarrel in history, and because of this, Jiang Neighbor took a few whips from Jiang Tianlin, and his body still has scars to this day.

It was also those scars that reminded Jiang Neighbor that he and Jiang Tianlin would never reconcile.

The memories came to an abrupt end in Jiang Lin's singing, and Shen Jing looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar child.

If she could choose again, she would definitely not choose to marry Jiang Tianlin.

If she had let go at that time, would there be fewer people to torture each other?

"Mom, not everyone has the opportunity to choose."

Jiang Neighbor looked at the quiet face, and said lightly.

Shen Jing felt even more dull pain in her heart, yes, Jiang Lin had no chance to choose, neither did Jiang Tianlin, but she Shen Jing had a choice back then.
