C1329 The Price of Kindness
Mo Nan suddenly stood still and closed his eyes, as if he was asleep. This made Wushuang and Jessica very anxious.
As soon as Baii Zhangshui left, the two girls quickly realized that something was wrong with this hooligan. They immediately ran over to check.
Ling Guan also wanted to come over to take a look. He had only taken two steps when he was stopped by a few old friends. They said bitterly,
"Old Ling, we want to apologize to you for what happened today, but Baii Zhangshui is too powerful. We can't defeat him. You have to understand that we are not..."
Ling Guan waved his hand impatiently.
"You guys can leave."
He had no interest in listening to these nominal friends' explanations. Besides, he was kind, but not without principles. Some things could be forgiven, but Wushuang was involved. He would never let go.
"From today onwards, I, Ling Guan, will have nothing to do with you all!"
Ling Guan spoke with decisiveness and coldness.
Under normal circumstances, if the person refused without mercy, anyone who wanted to show some face would definitely leave with their tails between their legs. However, the few of them clearly had other intentions. One of them immediately shouted,
"Old Ling, it's more or less enough!"
"Brother and the others didn't do it on purpose. Can't you understand us? Don't forget, " Back then, all of our opportunities to study abroad were given to you by everyone. If it wasn't for that time, would you have achieved so much? "
"That's right..."
[That's right!]
The others immediately agreed.
Ling Guan looked at them coldly. At this moment, his heart turned cold.
Some people were like this. They would remember something that was beneficial to them for the rest of their lives. Ling Guan could no longer remember how many times he had helped them over the years because of this reason.
But in the end, that thing was still hanging in their mouths.
Everyone was talking at once. Ling Guan could not put his words into words. He was not a sharp-tongued person to begin with. When he heard them say "ingrate," his face turned red.
Even though the group of doctors wanted to help, they could not figure out what was going on between the group of people and Ling Guan. They could only watch from the side, feeling a headache coming on.
Fortunately, Mrs Fang walked over at this moment.
She smiled and looked at the few people who were about to point at Old Ling and scold. After coming over, she pressed her hands and said calmly and generously.
"You guys want to talk about friendship, right? Alright, then. Today, I'll help Old Ling to have a good chat with you guys."
"Old Yan, let's talk about you first. Let's not talk about the past. Let's talk about the past few years. The year before last, the institute wanted to promote an associate professor. " If Old Ling hadn't helped you put in a good word for you, this title wouldn't have fallen to you, would it? "
Old Yan's eyes widened and he was about to continue speaking.
Mrs Fang directly interrupted him and continued.
"Don't be anxious. I haven't finished speaking. Last year, you wanted to publish a thesis in an international magazine. If you can't reach the standard, you came to ask Old Ling for help. This is nothing. But we agreed to sign it together, and in the end, you were the only one who signed it, right? "
Hearing this, the others couldn't help but look at Old Yan.
At that time, they were still wondering when Old Yan had reached such a high level. The important thing was that since the report mentioned a new technology, it could be considered as the first public release in the industry, so it made Old Yan's reputation rise in one go.
At that time, they were even congratulating Old Yan, saying that if he did not make a name for himself, he would amaze the world with a single stroke of his sword in ten years.
Now, it seemed like Old Yan had snatched the fruits of Old Ling's victory by sharpening a sword strike every ten years.
"Cough."
Old Yan waved his hand and smiled sheepishly. "Sister-in-law, it's already over. Why are you still talking about this?"
Mrs Fang did not make things difficult for him. She smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I will not talk about you for now."
After that, Mrs Fang looked at the other person. Her attitude was still calm as she said,
"Chang Ming, let's talk about you. There was a research institute recently. It should have been Old Ling who conducted the research. You pleaded for Old Ling to give it to you in private. This is nothing."
"But you insisted on saying it in front of the director. It's because Old Ling thinks highly of himself and doesn't care about those small research projects. Why don't you explain what's going on?"
After Old Yan, the others were just about to say that it was Old Yan's actions and had nothing to do with them. However, Mrs Fang exposed another person's background and they immediately quieted down.
Especially Chang Ming. His face turned red and he wanted to shake his head and deny it.
Mrs Fang smiled calmly and took a step forward.
"Don't deny it. Speaking of which, don't you often laugh at me? Old Ling, with such a good background, why don't you learn medicine and archeology? " Today, I'll give you some information. "
"I applied for the archaeology department back then."
Mrs Fang said shyly.
Old Ling's face turned even redder because of this. He did not know whether it was because he was angry or because he was embarrassed.
Just when the group of people looked at each other and felt that they were full, they did not know what Mrs Fang's words meant. Mrs Fang continued to say word by word.
As for me, I studied archaeology because three generations of my family are engaged in archaeological work. Your director is actually my biological uncle. Old Ling didn't tell you because he knew your character and didn't want your relationship to be ruined because you tried to curry favor with him."
"But behind your back, he has helped you many times. Chang Ming, are you still planning to deny that you spoke ill of Old Ling in front of the director?"
Chang Ming:... ""
He followed closely behind Old Yan and lowered his head in shame.
Since things had come to this point, there would no longer be any relationship between the two sides in the future. The more Mrs Fang spoke, the angrier she got. She simply glanced at the rest of the people.
"What about you guys? Do you still want me to continue speaking?"
"No need, no need." The few of them shook their heads repeatedly.
The feeling of being exposed in front of others was too embarrassing. They did not want to experience it.
Seeing this, Mrs Fang took a deep breath and her voice became even colder.
To be honest, you are the vermin on Old Ling's body."
"I don't know how much blood he has been drained by you all these years. It's fine if you don't know how to be grateful, but you still dare to mention what happened back then. If it wasn't for the fact that Old Ling wanted to compete fairly with you all and further your studies, with just a word from my uncle, what does it have to do with you all?"
The few of them felt ashamed. Without waiting for Mrs Fang to continue speaking, they all hurried to the courtyard dejectedly and left with their sons. It seemed that they would not be able to enter the Ling family's main gate in the future.
"Wife." Only at this moment did Ling Guan finally open his mouth again. Originally, he wanted to say something. However, Mrs Fang turned around and glared at him. She immediately smiled and gave him a thumbs up.
"Domineering!"
"Humph!!" Mrs Fang smiled and rolled her eyes.0
Seeing that the couple had been married for many years and was still so sweet, the group of people next to them all mocked and congratulated them. Just when Old Ling was about to say a few emotional words and admit that he did not think things through today, he lost his head.
In the yard, Wushuang and Jessica had already called Mo Nan for a long time. The latter did not react at all. Wushuang could not help but shout:
"Mom, quickly come over and take a look..."
