Chapter 151 Cai'er is not the only one with problems in her family
"Yes."
Xingyuan also noticed Lan Yanyu's abnormal mood. When he heard Sheng Lingxin asking him for help, he nodded and stood up from his seat.
"Palace Master Lan, this way please."
Fortunately, although Lan Yanyu's emotions were a little out of control, when she saw that the person responsible for taking care of her was Xingyuan, she cooperated and walked out of the conference room with him.
"Then let's continue..."
Seeing that this little episode did not attract too much attention, Sheng Lingxin felt a little relieved.
……
Outside the conference hall, Xingyuan would naturally not take Lan Yanyu to the Mudanjiang Normal University in the camp. After all, she was suffering from a mental illness. Compared to receiving treatment from a pastor, it would obviously be more useful to give her a space to confide in Xingyuan.
The Magic Branch Hall and the Exorcist Camp are not far from each other, and Xingyuan also plans to take Lan Yanyu there to calm down first. She probably doesn't want others to see her losing her composure.
However, Lan Yanyu, who was walking beside him, grabbed his sleeve and said, "Yuan'er, wait a minute. You don't have to go to the branch hall. Just come to my office."
Seeing that no one was looking over here, Xingyuan nodded and said, "Okay, Aunt Lan, tell me where it is."
In the conference hall.
Cai'er wanted to find Xingyuan. She didn't know why Sheng Lingxin and his wife wanted to send Xingyuan away. But she wasn't worried that they would harm Xingyuan. She just didn't want Xingyuan to have too much contact with them.
However, before Xingyuan left, he specifically told her to stay in the conference room, and she was very resistant to contact with Sheng Lingxin and the others, so she could only wait for Xingyuan to come back.
After Xingyuan sent Lan Yanyu to her office in the camp at Exorcist Pass, he was about to say goodbye and return to the conference room.
To be honest, he didn't know how to face Lan Yanyu.
"Yuan'er, wait a moment." Lan Yanyu hugged Xingyuan from behind, "Auntie has something to tell you."
Lan Yanyu pressed very closely from behind, just like when they were little.
But now Xingyuan was taller than her, and it was no longer Xingyuan buried in her arms, but she was buried between Xingyuan’s golden hair.
"Aunt Lan, you say, I won't leave."
Xing Yuan felt very embarrassed because he could actually feel Lan Yanyu's soft body, and his face turned a little red.
After all, he is already an 'adult', and even though the other party is the 'mother' who worked hard to raise him, Xingyuan still feels a little embarrassed.
"Hahaha--"
Lan Yanyu saw Xingyuan's reaction. This behavior, which seemed extremely cute in her eyes, also diluted a lot of sadness in her heart.
"Although you have grown so tall and handsome, your personality is still as cute as when you were a child."
As he spoke, Lan Yanyu touched Xingyuan's face, hands and feet, and patted his belly as if he was doing a routine check-up. After confirming that he was much stronger than before he went to Jialing City to study, he finally felt relieved.
"Aunt Lan, you can obviously directly detect the value of my external spiritual power." Xingyuan's face turned red, and it took him a long time to utter these words.
He found that in Lan Yanyu's eyes, he seemed to be just a tiny child. When she examined Xingyuan's body, she did not miss a single spot, just like the principle that a grown-up child should avoid his mother.
"I'm worried that your sister Tan Wan won't take good care of you..." Lan Yanyu muttered twice, and then touched the outline of the abdominal muscles under the Xingyuan magic robe, and said with emotion: "Your physique is better than that of ordinary soldiers now, so I... Auntie is relieved."
"..."
"Why? Do you dislike me?"
Lan Yanyu touched her face, frowned and said, "I shouldn't be too old, right? I pay attention to maintenance."
Hearing this, Xing Yuan hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, Aunt Lan, don't think too much about it. It's just that I've grown up now and I'm not used to the way we used to get along when we were kids."
Lan Yanyu curled her lips and said, "No matter how old you are, you are still my child. It's not like I've never seen a man before. There's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Xingyuan: “…”
It seems that Caier is not the only one with problems in her family...
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Lan Yanyu reached out to tidy up Xingyuan's hair, her voice lower than before, "Tell me, how has Cai'er been doing these years? And...what is your relationship like now?"
"..."
Long before setting out for the Exorcism Pass, Xingyuan knew that he would be asked similar questions when he met the Sheng Lingxin couple, so he had prepared a draft early on.
What surprised Xingyuan was that during the eight years that Cai'er received Shengyue's training, she had never even met her biological mother Lan Yanyu.
As for Sheng Lingxin, because he was a core senior figure in the Assassin's Temple, he was able to visit Cai'er during her free time.
It’s a pity that Cai’er didn’t see him at all…
Lan Yanyu was still complaining to Xingyuan that not only did Cai'er refuse to see her, but she also never replied to the letters she asked Sheng Lingxin to send her, even once, as if she didn't even see her as her mother.
In fact, Cai'er not only did not reply to Lan Yanyu's letter, she also did not reply to Xingyuan's letter.
The reason was that Cai'er couldn't see with her naked eyes during that period, so even if she received Xingyuan's letter, she could only hold it in her hands and worry.
She would not ask Shengyue to read the letter from Xingyuan for her. In addition, she was in serious self-doubt during that period. She felt that she was dumb and blind and was not worthy of Xingyuan. It was even more impossible for her to send a reply letter to Xingyuan.
As for the letters that Lan Yanyu asked Sheng Lingxin to pass on to her...
She did have an impression of this incident, but she didn't know where the letters were put later.
Because of the affairs between Xingyuan and Caier, a big emotional rift had developed between Sheng Lingxin and Lan Yanyu, who were originally in love. The two no longer talked about everything, and each kept their thoughts to themselves.
From Lan Yanyu's perspective, Xingyuan also discovered how unhappy she had been over the years.
The couple was not getting along, the Magic Temple basically ignored her, and her biological daughter Cai'er seemed to have suddenly disappeared from her life. Her only spiritual comfort was her adopted son Xingyuan, who was studying far away at the Magic Temple headquarters and often sent her letters.
In this way, Lan Yanyu's behavior in front of him all makes sense.
She poured all the maternal love that Cai'er rejected into Xingyuan...
After listening to Xingyuan talk about Cai'er's recent situation and how the two of them started dating during this year's Demon Hunting Team selection competition, and how they started living together and had plans to get married, Lan Yanyu had a smiling expression throughout.
