Chapter 146
Mei Lilian and Ling Zhan's mother... knew each other?
To Lan Yu, this news was like a thunderstorm. He originally wanted to tell Ling Zhan that the person who spoke in the last recording was probably Mei Lilian, but now he started to feel scared again.
But Lan Yu suddenly remembered what Ling Zhan said last time, he said he could tell the difference.
After taking a deep breath, Lan Yu tentatively asked, "When did they start dating?"
Ling Zhan had a panoramic view of his strange look, and then recalled: "I was about ten years old, anyway, since then, my mother always went to church, and now she often goes, and the person who serves her said that I was not here. When she was Emperor Star, she would basically live in the church, and she was rarely brought with her in the palace, and Ling Yunfeng never returned when she invited her."
It seems that the relationship between Ling Zhan's mother Shen Qingwan and Ling Yunfeng is not good, it can even be described as bad.
Suppressing this thought, Lan Yu asked, "Does Mei Lilian know the identity of your mother?"
"I know." Ling Zhan said: "Because that church is directly linked to the royal family, as a deacon, as the second in command after the bishop, she knows a lot, including the identity of the royal family."
Hearing this, Lan Yu remained silent and had some guesses in his heart.
If everything is as he imagined, what Ling Zhan experienced at the age of 13 may have something to do with Mei Lilian... It may even be that she assisted Horus in doing it. After all, according to Ling Zhan, Mei Lilian Lian knew too much.
"Do you want to say something?"
"Let me tell you something again."
After a long silence, they both spoke at the same time, Ling Zhan closed his mouth, motioning for Lan Yu to speak first.
Lan Yu is also very particular, trying to build up his heart, saying: "In fact, I have always had a guess in my heart."
Ling Zhan raised his eyebrows: "What?"
"I think," Ran said, "Marilyn has something to do with Horus, 100% sure."
Ling Zhan couldn't help but be shocked: "How can I see that?"
"Do you still remember that recording?" Lan Yu reminded: "The person speaking in that is Mei Lilian, her voice..."
Lan Yu paused, and took a deep breath: "I will never forget it in my life."
Although to him Mei Lilian is not his biological mother, but only this body, but his emotions are inevitably infected, he can feel how attached the original body is to this mother, so after recalling that memory, he At that time, the emotions almost collapsed.
After all, in a sense, she ruined his life.
Ling Zhan didn't expect Lan Yu to say such a sentence, he was stunned for a while, not sure what he should say.
What Lan Yu can think of, he can naturally think of it. According to the speculation, everything he has experienced is inseparable from Mei Lilian, and has a direct relationship!
"Forget it, let's go back." Lan Yu saw Ling Zhan's unacceptable, no matter how beautiful what he said before, when the truth is in front of his eyes, he is prone to be at a loss.
Ling Zhan is in such a situation right now.
They walked back to the Senate building in silence, and did not speak again until the ball.
The location of the ball was chosen in the gathering room of the Elders' Building. Lan Yu was eligible to attend the ball no matter whether he was the one who was ordered by Ling Zhan or the young master of the Lan family.
So when the time was up, Lan Yu went, but he didn't dress himself up as a fancy peacock like Qiao Yuxiu, Lan Ce and others. He just dressed in casual clothes and went in with the invitation Ling Lan gave him. .
This invitation was sent to him by Ling Lan himself a few days ago, it would be impolite not to accept it, so at that time, he had to bite the bullet and accept it.
Entering the hall, Lan Yu was not in the mood to listen to the host's nagging. After mixing a glass of wine, he began to search for a quiet corner.
Because he was dressed too simply, in the middle of looking for a seat, many people took him for the service staff in the hall, until the sharp-eyed Lan Ce realized the predicament and shouted: "Why are you shouting? Let me Brother serves you, do you still want to kill yourself!"
"..."
At that moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Lan Yu.
So, everyone in the ballroom knew that another young master of the Lan family was dressed very ordinary today, he looked like a waiter, and the only feature that could be used to identify him was his golden hair.
Lan Ce was a stick, and the lighting at the scene was too dim, so he couldn't see the dark look on his brother's face, and even thought that his brother would be greatly moved by his righteousness.
Thinking of this, he immediately dumped those cronies around him, and rushed up to Lan Yu, "Brother! Where did you go in the morning? You disappeared as soon as I turned around. I was thinking of being with you at first." Come here, and it turns out I'm all alone."
Lan Yu glanced at the few people who were left behind by Lan Ce, and said coldly, "I don't think you are alone at all."
"Where!" Lan Ce hugged Lan Yu's neck with his hands and feet, and blinked his starry eyes: "Brother! Let me tell you, if I'm not around you, I will feel lonely! I will always be an orphan."
This kid, after being rescued by his brother in exchange for his life last time, directly enshrined Lan Yu as a candidate for his ancestors, even if his father came.
Goosebumps came out from Lan Yu's body, he fixed his eyes on a spot, left a sentence: "Don't bother me." Then he shook off Lan Ce and walked over.
Although it was remote, there were many snacks and fruits on the table in front of each seat. Lan Yu picked up one of the cherries and threw it into his mouth.
Lan Ce hurriedly followed, sat down next to his brother, didn't care about the insult just now, looked around, and asked curiously: "Brother, you and Brother Zhan quarreled."
Lan Yu spat out the cherry pit on the paper: "Which eye of yours saw me quarreling with him?"
"Both eyes have seen it," Lan Ce said, "Look, you two were in the same team this morning, but you didn't walk together, and your talk was like a fight. You shot me with a sword. It's the same now. Didn't come together, what is it if it's not a quarrel?"
"Shut up, there's no quarrel." Lan Yu categorically denied that there was a reason why Ling Zhan didn't come with him, because the people from the royal family wanted to come together, along with the envoy from the Federation who came to negotiate.
But there's no need to explain this to Lan Ce, with his voice, Ling Zhan's identity can be revealed in minutes.
But Lan Yu made a mistake, Ling Zhan did not come with Ling Yunfeng and the others.
Lan Yu was eating cherries when a shadow fell in front of him, and Ling Zhan stood in front of him, his expression became more serious in the darkness.
He pointed to a dark and deserted corner, and said, "Come with me."
The meaning is obvious, Ling Zhan wants to talk to him alone, Lan Yu understands, he just stood up, Lan Ce's little bastard also stood up.
Lan Yu wanted to say "don't come here to join in the fun", but unexpectedly, he didn't know whether Lan Ce went crazy or did it on purpose, he fell back and sat down again, and before that, he put his head on Lan Yu's back.
With her center of gravity unstable, Lan Yu threw herself forward, bumping her face firmly into Ling Zhan's chest, and was almost caught by him.
"・・・"
The meaning of throwing himself into the arms is too obvious, thanks to the fact that the opponent is Ling Zhan, if he is another person, he can find a crack today.
Lan Yu grabbed Ling Zhan's arm and stood up straight, turned to look at Lan Ce, just in time to see the smile on his face.
Okay, bastard, you deliberately tricked me, right?Lan Yu thought to himself.
When he should be smart, he is not smart, and when he shouldn't be smart, Lan Ce is smarter than anyone else, especially when it comes to dating. According to my friends, I have seen this kind of trick too much, so I just learn it and use it flexibly.
After Lan Ce "secreted" Lan Yu, he naturally knew that his brother would be angry, so he changed his face in an instant, pointed to the ground, and said aggrievedly: "The ground is too slippery, I can't stand firmly."
Then he upheld the principle that as long as he apologized quickly, it would be easy to get forgiven, and he opened his mouth and said, "I'm sorry brother! I was wrong! I will stand firm next time!"
"・・・"
Lan Yu knew that if he really cared about this stick, he would have been pissed off thousands of times, so he gave him a look, and said to Ling Zhan, "Let's go there, leave him alone."
Ling Zhan nodded.
Lan Ce was abandoned just like that, but he didn't feel wronged at all, as long as he could help his brother recover his feelings, he didn't care if he was stared at ten times.Lan Ce even felt that he could nominate an award like "Top Ten Best Brothers".
When he was moved by himself, Lan Yu and Ling Zhan had already walked to the corner.
This seems to be a place where sundries are piled up, and there is a secret door hidden in the darkness.
Ling Zhan stretched out his hand and opened the door, and Lan Yu stepped in after him.
Looking at the pitch-black space, Lan Yu wanted to say, "Turn on the light", but before he could open his mouth, a huge thrust came and pushed him against the wall.
It's Ling Zhan.
The surroundings were too dark to see Ling Zhan's face and the expression on his face clearly, so he could barely meet a pair of emotional eyes in the darkness.
Lan Yu raised his hand to look for his hand, and finally grabbed it, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Ling Zhan clasped his hand instead, with an unprecedented sense of exhaustion in his tone, but the words he said had nothing to do with his emotions: "You are you, your mother is your mother, I will not put you Hook together, trust me."
"I know." Lan Yu hesitated to say this. After all, after Ling Zhan knew Ms. Mei's identity, he ignored him all the time. He even left directly after sending him back to the Elders' Building , disappeared.
Suddenly, Lan Yu felt his shoulders sink, and only heard Ling Zhan say in a broken voice: "But I don't believe in myself, I don't even know what I have been doing all this time, and what is the meaning of existence!"
Immediately afterwards, Lan Yu felt his shoulders heat up, with a dampness that could not be ignored.
Ling Zhan's breathing was a little messy, his voice was almost hoarse, and he said with difficulty: "So... I'm just a tool for her revenge."
