There was still some distance from the hospital, Yang Lin held Ah Qiu's neck, turned around and left.

"What are you doing?" Ah Qiu wondered, how could Yang Lin, with his thin arms and legs, get so much strength.

Yang Lin gritted his teeth with a dark face, "Go and apologize to Hu Tao."

"Oh, stop, stop, I apologize!" Ah Qiu squatted down, relying on his weight to stop Yang Lin's procrastination.

Yang Lin crossed his arms in complete disbelief.

"Really. I apologized to her the next day, and she forgave me, and took me to see Cheng Tong." Ah Qiu's neck was strangled, but Yang Lin was not to blame. If he is obsessive on a public platform, he will definitely go berserk.

"Huh?" Yang Lin forgot to ask Cheng Tong about it. If Hu Tao was still angry, it was impossible to talk and laugh with Ah Qiu and take him to the hospital.

"Tell me in detail."

Ah Qiu sat on the ground, scratching her head in embarrassment, "I wrote her a 3000-word apology letter by hand, and she smiled and called me ugly, so she forgave me. Later, she received a call from Cheng Tongrang to deliver the meal , and we went together."

"What else? Let's go into more detail." Yang Lin pulled him up and walked with him towards the hospital.

"No more, I sat in the hospital for a while and chatted with Cheng Tong about some things, so I went home by myself." Ah Qiu didn't understand what was so detailed.

"When did it happen?" Yang Lin didn't understand, if Hu Tao could forgive this, why was he only angry at him?

"The day before yesterday." After that, Aqiu started tutoring and didn't go to see the two of them anymore. Today's get out of class ended early, so he just wanted to buy some fruit.

"..." Yang Lin was confused.

There were many people in the hospital on weekends. Yang Lin and Aqiu walked through the crowded lobby and climbed to the thoracic surgery inpatient department on the fourth floor. Aqiu was so tired that he was out of breath.

"You're too weak." Yang Lin helped carry the fruit basket, "Didn't you go to learn how to play basketball?"

"What kind of basketball? I'm going to learn fencing. When I come back from my studies, I'll see you."

"Crazy." Yang Lin cursed with a smile.

When the two entered, Cheng Tong was staring at the newspaper with a serious face. When he saw Yang Lin coming, he joked, "Hey, rare visitor. Long time no see."

Yang Lin smiled apologetically, "I had something to do at home a few days ago, and I'm free these days. Is there anything I can do to help?"

"It's okay. Hey, have you read the news?" Cheng Tong's face was pale, but he was very energetic. When he talked about news of interest, his eyes would still light up, and he didn't look like he was hit by the illness at all.

"Oh! I've heard of this!" Ah Qiu took the newspaper and exclaimed, "That leader has been sentenced to death!"

"Tsk tsk." Cheng Tong smacked his lips, "Troublemakers come out of poor mountains and rivers, the ancients never deceived me. A small evil. The leader of the sect even commanded and killed 4 people. Fortunately, he was discovered early, otherwise the whole town next door will be suppressed. Indoctrination, that's hard to deal with."

"Yeah. Yang Lin, you guys are really amazing." Ah Qiu kept nodding his head, substituting Yang Lin, he probably died of fright at the time.

"Haha, thanks to Hu Tao, I'm a laggard." Yang Lin waved his hand.

Cheng Tong laughed a few times, thinking of something, glanced at it, and fell into deep thought, "Speaking of which, Hu Tao is really good at it, she predicted at that time that the leader was going to die, I didn't believe it at that time, my heart No matter how powerful she is, she can still see other people's death? I didn't expect her words to become a prophecy, and she really saw it."

In the past, she would still be afraid of the unknown origin of Hu Tao, but since she fell ill, she looked away, and Hu Tao took care of her a lot, and it was too late for her to be grateful.

"Oh yes, Yang Lin, do you have any trouble with Hu Tao?" Cheng Tong thought of Hu Tao's anomaly in the afternoon.

"She suddenly asked me today, what kind of person is your father? I said, when I moved to Yangjia Town, your father had passed away, and I didn't know him." Cheng Tong carefully recalled Hu Tao's expression, very He said incomprehensibly, "She didn't seem to expect this answer at all. She was shocked for a long time, and then repeatedly confirmed with me... Does your father know me, do you know that my name is Beidou, and do you know Death Omen?"

Ah Qiu stared at Yang Lin with wide eyes, Yang Lin shook his head and said that he didn't know why Hu Tao asked.

"And then? My father probably doesn't know you." Yang Lin was numb.

"Of course. And Beidou and Shi Zhaoxing, I only told you and Hutao." Cheng Tong's eyes showed a bit of worry, "After I talked to her like this, she broke down a bit, and ran away with the excuse that she wanted to go back to rest. gone."

"..." Yang Lin rubbed the center of his brows, unable to calm down.Knowing how Hu Tao got angry in the afternoon, she didn't know the reason for her anger at all.

"Should it have something to do with your father?" Ah Qiu couldn't bear to see Yang Lin lose his soul. All in all, his father was not a good person.The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the little bit of admiration for painting skills dissipated.

"Probably." Yang Lin was so exhausted recently that he didn't have the energy to think about it.If Hu Tao is unwilling to tell him, then even if he knows, he can only pretend not to know, so he should not know at all.

After bidding farewell to Cheng Tong and parting from Ah Qiu at the intersection, Yang Lin kicked the stones home with his head bowed and dejected.

As the New Year approaches, Lantern Street has replaced the white lanterns with colorful lanterns, and even the gloomy paper figurines are filled with joy, which is both weird and funny.

Yang Lin walked around and looked around, with a smile on his face that he didn't realize.

For the first time, he felt that something he had hated for so long had a cute side.

When I got home, my mother had already prepared the meals. She stood by the window and looked around from time to time. When she saw Yang Lin coming back, she wanted to put on a face of teaching, but Yang Lin said "Mom, I'm back", which made her smile.

"Hurry up and eat, we've been waiting for half a day."

"Ah."

The dinner table was no longer dull as in the past few days, and Yang Lin no longer confronted her mother's topic with a cold face, and occasionally agreed with her, and occasionally listened to her carefully, and the two reconciled as before.

"Mom, tell me about Dad." Yang Lin cleaned up the rice in the bowl, and put down the chopsticks lightly.

"Why do you ask this suddenly?" Mom stopped cleaning the dishes.

"It's nothing." Yang Lin turned his head to look into the shop, with a faint smile on his face, "Don't worry, I don't want to inherit the family business, but I'm a little regretful, as if I never knew him."

Mom followed his gaze, her eyes seemed hesitant and worried.If Yang Lin asked her a year ago, she would be happy to talk about it, but now, when Yang Lin asked her, she was only worried that Yang Lin would have feelings for this place, and she was unwilling to leave her.

"Or just tell me, what was strange about him during the last period. I remember that you also quarreled at that time?" Yang Lin turned his head and saw that his mother was secretly sad, so he slowed down his tone.

Mom sighed, "There's nothing strange about it. His alcohol addiction has been coming and going, but after he started painting again, he got better, drinking less and cursing less."

Yang Lin remembered that during that time, his father's changes were obvious to all. Even he felt that his father had changed for the better. Although the two didn't talk much, they started to look at each other, and they could sit on the same chair and watch TV.

Even one day, his father suddenly told him that he would never drink alcohol again.

Yang Lin believed it, so when Aqiu's sister was drowning by the river, the first person he thought of asking for help was his father who was the closest.

But he couldn't count on him getting drunk and lying there, and when Yang Lin found other people to help, Aqiu's sister couldn't hold on anymore.

Yang Lin always felt that if his father hadn't been drinking that day, he would have been able to save Sister Aqiu.

After that, the two broke up completely. Even when his father died of drinking, he didn't feel sad, he just felt that it was his fate.

"Do you still hate him?" Mom touched his head.

"How is it possible not to hold grudges?"

Not only hated him for not being able to save sister Aqiu, but also hated him for not keeping his promise and not caring for his body.
