Chapter 769: Chapter 768 Can I Not Hate?
"Lin Chun! When did you all get back? Why didn’t you say a word to me!"
Lin Aiguo looked at the dark mass of people, and he could only selectively talk to Lin Chun.
No matter when, Lin Chun was still his son. And among the children, Lin Chun was the most filial!
Lin Chun hadn’t expected to encounter his father and grandmother, his face slightly embarrassed as he answered, "Just got back today!"
He had once called Lin Aiguo, and as soon as Lin Aiguo heard about moving the grave, he disagreed and even got angry.
Now face-to-face, Lin Chun still felt somewhat guilty.
Lin Aiguo’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his unanticipated questioning fierce, "Did you all just finish visiting the gravesite?"
They came back without even letting him know, and now that he had run into them, not one of them seemed the slightest bit sorry, instead glaring at him in anger.
"Yeah!"
"Lin Chun! You few come back with me, let’s sit down and have a good talk about this!" Lin Aiguo didn’t dare call over Qin Zeming and those dark-faced, glaring people, he only dared to call his four children.
Just as Lin Chun was about to speak, Lin Xia cut in, "We came back specifically to move our mother’s grave! What’s there to talk about?"
She didn’t feel like there was anything she needed to say to Lin Aiguo, her mother’s grave had to be moved, no one could stop it.
"You child! How can you speak like that! How is there nothing to talk about! Your mother is buried here! Am I not your father!
If her grave is moved away! Where will I be buried when I die?"
Lin Aiguo was enraged by Lin Xia’s attitude, this daughter had never taken him seriously.
When she had twins, he kindly took his sister and sister-in-law to help her with breastfeeding.
During the two days he stayed at his in-laws’, Lin Xia never gave him a kind look.
What kind of children act like this?
Even if he had once done something wrong as a person, now he was sincerely trying to make amends, how could they not forgive him?
Lin Xia was just about to say, you can be buried wherever you want!
Qin Zeming, who had been scowling all this time, spoke up, "Where you are buried has nothing to do with my daughter! Lin Aiguo! I’m giving you a pass for the sake of Lin Chun and the other three kids! Otherwise, given the way you treated my daughter back then, I would be justified to beat you until you were disabled!"
Ever since he found out about all that his youngest daughter had suffered those years she was alive, he would often suffer from restless nights, hating Lin Aiguo and the Lin Family to the bone.
He thought about his lifetime as a soldier, killing countless enemies on the battlefield, only to have his youngest daughter mistreated and bullied by such a family, worn down to an early death by illness and pain.
So how could he possibly swallow his pride?
If he could have found his youngest daughter and her family years earlier, he would never have let them suffer so much, endure so much pain!
If it weren’t for the presence of Lin Chun and the other kids, he would have had someone take care of them long ago, would he have let them have the chance to jump around in front of him?
Now that they’ve met, he was only holding back for the sake of the children, not wanting them to witness their father being beaten.
After all, blood is thicker than water, and even if this man and his family were no good, they were still their father and relatives!
Under Qin Zeming’s immense pressure, Lin Aiguo’s legs grew weak, and he nearly couldn’t stand.
Liu Shuqin stood behind Lin Aiguo and also felt the ferocity of that murderous aura; she didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
Both of them originally thought they had the moral high ground and wanted to say a lot, but they didn’t dare to utter a single word.
Qin Zeming’s momentum was overwhelming, "I’m telling you! We’ll be over first thing in the morning to relocate the grave. If you’re not afraid of dying and do something to my little daughter’s grave, then I won’t even consider Lin Chun and their faces!"
After Qin Zeming finished speaking, he didn’t care about Lin Aiguo and Liu Shuqin’s reactions; he commanded everyone to keep moving.
Lin Chun was walking among the crowd; he looked back and only saw Lin Aiguo and Liu Shuqin standing there motionless.
Once on the vehicle, Qin Zeming completely shed his previous aura, turning back into an elderly man at the end of his years.
At that moment, his face was dark and unsightly, bearing the desolation and sadness of a wilting plant.
Qin Zeming asked Lin Chun, who sat in the passenger seat, "Lin Chun! Do you think your grandfather has gone a bit too far?"
He knew that among the four children, Lin Chun was the most naive, honest, and the easiest to soften his heart.
The incident that was just witnessed, would have certainly left an impression on the child’s heart.
Lin Chun shook his head, "Grandpa! To tell the truth! I don’t think you’ve gone too far! But my heart still feels uncomfortable! After all, that’s my father!"
Lin Chun didn’t want to say something insincere in front of his grandfather; he also knew his own father wasn’t good.
But kinship was such, sometimes it twisted love and hate inside him, making it hard to harden his heart...
"Lin Chun! It’s good that you can speak your true thoughts! Your grandfather understands your feelings! But please also understand your grandfather’s feelings! We searched for your mother for so many years, and finally found her, only to learn she had already passed away.
In the past, you all withheld the full extent of what had happened to keep us from feeling more guilt! We understand all this!
However, now that we know about the past events, as a father, how can I not hate? It’s for your sake that I have not taken action against him!
As long as he doesn’t obstruct us and allows us to smoothly relocate your mother’s grave, I promise I will not trouble him in the future!"
Qin Zeming was well aware of Lin Chun’s dilemma, but the matter of relocating his youngest daughter’s grave was something he had to accomplish at all costs! No one was going to stand in his way!
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Lin Chun understood that this outcome was the greatest concession his grandfather could make.
Lin Aiguo and Liu Shuqin stood there for a long time, only moving to descend the mountain when they heard the sound of the cars driving away.
Neither of them had visited Yu Wanhua’s grave.
Liu Shuqin gently touched her chest; the old man’s attitude just now was terrifying, almost like he was ready to kill.
"Boss! That old man seemed really formidable! They even brought so many people; even if our entire Lin Family came, we couldn’t match them! Besides, Lin Xia and those kids are on their side!"
When she thought about Lin Xia’s attitude, her heart filled with anger, but Lin Xia, now with her good marriage and conditions, was no longer the girl she could boss around; there were things she dared not say.
Lin Aiguo looked towards the distant mountains, feeling a sense of loss. After Yu Wanhua had passed away, he had only come here for the burial.
Years had passed since then, and it had only been recently that he had come to visit this place again.
Perhaps he was truly old; he often found his thoughts drifting back to his youth.
Looking back now, Yu Wanhua was indeed a good woman, not only beautiful but also with a good personality. She had treated him sincerely when they first married, but how had he treated her?
Scenes from the past flashed before his eyes like a lantern show; Lin Aiguo felt a sense of regret and sighed, "Ah! Let’s go! Let’s head back!"
