The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future

"I'll call Grandma Wang to ask."

Chen Jia was anxious, and she picked up the phone on the dining table.

However.

The phone rang for a while, but no one answered it.

"Did something happen to them?"

Chen Jia panicked: "No, I have to go see them. The old couple treat me like their own granddaughter. If something really happens to them, I must not..."

Before she finished speaking, Lin Ming grabbed her hand.

"Don't panic, it's nothing serious."

In Chen Jia's heart, Lin Ming is always her backbone.

Feeling the power from Lin Ming's hand.

Chen Jia's originally flustered heart quickly calmed down.

"Jia Jia, don't worry, I have seen your Grandma Wang and others before, and they are still in good health." Chi Yufen also said.

Lin Ming said: "Let's put aside the work and go to the rental house. It's almost time to rent the house, and we should check out."

Chen Jia trembled slightly.

She didn't say anything else, just nodded silently.

…

9:30 in the morning.

Old town.

Anju community.

Lin Ming and Chen Jia stood outside the door and knocked on the entrance door of Wang Lanmei's house.

After a while, the entrance door was opened.

But what came into view was not Wang Lanmei and Song Quan, but their third son, Song Yunzhe.

When Song Yunzhe saw Lin Ming and Chen Jia, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

But then, his eyes burst into a gleam, and his face was full of smiles.

"Mr. Lin? Mr. Chen? Why are you here? Distinguished guests!"

Lin Ming had seen Song Yunzhe and his friends when they just came back.

Lin Ming didn't have much good feelings for this man who had so many tricks in his heart.

But Song Yunzhe was the son of Wang Lanmei and Song Quan after all, and he couldn't give him a cold look.

"I haven't seen Grandma Wang and Grandpa Song for several days. I miss them a little. They didn't answer my phone calls, so I thought of coming here to see them." Lin Ming smiled faintly.

Chen Jia also stood on tiptoe and looked into the house.

"Where are Grandma Wang and Grandpa Song? Aren't they at home?"

"Yes, yes, my parents are cooking!"

Song Yunzhe said hurriedly: "Look at my brain, I actually forgot to invite the two guests to come in quickly, please don't be surprised, Mr. Lin and Mr. Chen!"

As he said.

Song Yunzhe gestured and signaled the two to go in.

Chen Jia didn't hesitate and walked into the house quickly.

Lin Ming, on the other hand, said softly when he entered the house: "We are not guests. In comparison, you who only come back once every few years are more like guests."

Song Yunzhe was startled.

A hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face, but it disappeared quickly, as if he didn't hear it.

Wang Lanmei's house is very lively.

The eldest, Song Yunfeng, the second, Song Yunlei, the third, Song Yunzhe, and the fourth, Song Yun.

As well as their families and children, all crowded into this small room.

This was something Lin Ming had not expected.

It had been seven or eight days since the last meeting.

None of them left?

For someone like Song Yunlei, who had returned from abroad, it was understandable that he would stay at home for ten days or half a month.

But for people like Song Yunfeng and Song Yunzhe, it was a bit too much.

If they were really so filial, they would not come back only once every two or three years, let alone forget the birthdays of the old couple!

At this moment.

Many thoughts flashed through Lin Ming's mind, but he remained calm on the surface.

After Lin Ming and Chen Jia came in.

Everyone in the room focused their eyes on the two of them.

This time, Lin Ming did not feel the disgust and ridicule like last time.

Instead, Lin Ming felt an ‘incredible’ emotion from the eyes of these people.

If this is true, what does it prove?

“It seems that Grandma Wang and Grandpa Song have told them everything about me and Chen Jia.” Lin Ming thought to himself.

Normally speaking.

Even the youngest Song Yun is over 40 years old.

For people like Song Yunfeng, Lin Ming should call them ‘uncle’.

But considering the impression they left on Lin Ming, Lin Ming really couldn’t say it.

“Hello.”

Looking around.

Lin Ming finally uttered only these three words out of politeness.

“Hello, hello.”

Song Yunfeng and others nodded quickly and stood up from their chairs.

Where is the look of contempt?

Looked flattered!

At this time.

Wang Lanmei and Song Quan in the kitchen just came out and bumped into Chen Jia who was about to go in.

“Jia Jia?!”

Wang Lanmei showed surprise: “How did you come??”

“I haven’t seen you in Brilliant Divine City for a long time. You didn’t answer my phone calls and didn’t call me back. I’m worried about you!”

Chen Jia grabbed Wang Lanmei’s arm, her tone full of blame.

Seeing that the old couple was in good health, Chen Jia was completely relieved, and her eyes were slightly red.

“This…”

Wang Lanmei’s eyes dodged: “It’s enough for you and Lin Ming to live well. Your grandpa Song and I have a long life. Don’t worry about us.”

“Yes, yes, Jia Jia, you do your work well and don’t worry about us.” Song Quan also said.

“Grandpa Song, what else are you talking about!”

Chen Jia was a little bit of a scapegoat: “Tell me, why did you suddenly tell my mother that you didn’t want to live in Brilliant Divine City? Did we do something wrong? "

Hearing this.

Wang Lanmei and Song Quan's faces changed obviously.

And Lin Ming could also feel it clearly.

Song Yunfeng, Song Yunzhe and others around him looked away at the same time, as if they had not heard it at all.

This subtle atmosphere fully interprets the saying 'there is no silver here'.

Chen Jia was anxious and didn't feel it.

She asked again: "Look, your family members are back, and such a small place can't accommodate you. Why do you have to move back? I really admire you. What are you stubborn about? If you feel uncomfortable, why don't you just tell me and Lin Ming? We will help you deal with it!"

"Jia Jia!"

Wang Lanmei looked at Chen Jia: "Stop talking! "

This harsh tone made Chen Jia stunned for a moment.

Chen Jia finally realized that the old couple must have their own difficulties in doing this.

"Jia Jia, Lin Ming, have you had breakfast? It just so happens that your grandmother Wang made some breakfast, let's eat together." Song Quan greeted.

Lin Ming smiled slightly: "No need, Grandpa Song, we have already eaten. This time we came to see you and Grandma Wang. Since you are in good health, we are relieved."

After that.

Lin Ming said to Chen Jia again: "Let's not disturb everyone's meal. Let's go back to the rental house first. The landlord should be here soon. Don't let him wait for us."

Without waiting for Chen Jia to speak.

Wang Lanmei took over and said: "Okay, you go back first. I still have the bed and quilt drying at your place. Go and get it after dinner. "
