Chapter 244 (2/2)

So… this boorish father of mine who looks extremely uncouth had already known what I wanted to do. Furthermore, he actually used his own methods to silently support and protect me!

All of these were things that Ling Xiao could never speak of, even to his own wife. He knew what kind of a risk this was. Therefore, he hid all of his secrets and worry he had for his son deep within his heart. He used his broad chest to endure this pressure alone!

Just how could a boorish man like him do something like this?!

For the first time, Ling Tian felt a deep fatherly love from this boorish father of his. This was the affection between father and son!

Despite Ling Tian having the experience from both of two lifetimes, he had the urge to dive into his father's embrace and burst out crying!

”All these years, I really wanted to hug you like when you were younger. Hug my precious son who I have always been so proud of.” Ling Xiao said with a tinge of frustration.

”Father!” Ling Tian could no longer hold back his tears.

”Ah ah ah…” Ling Xiao smiled with tears glistening in his eyes, ”How can a grown man like you cry like that?”

Ling Tian wiped his tears away and smiled embarra.s.sedly with warmth in his heart. He finally understood something: even if he had the experience of two lifetimes, he was still a child in front of his biological parents. Ling Tian really loved and enjoyed this feeling.

”s.h.i.+Jiu and the rest are your men right?” As though he felt as like it was an embarra.s.sing thing to shed tears in front of his son, Ling Xiao changed the topic.

”Yes.” Ling Tian replied.

”They aren't too bad. They are very good!” Ling Xiao said with gratification, ”All these years if I didn't have them, I would have… Haiz, it has been tough on those kids.” Ling Xiao looked towards Ling Tian warmly, ”I am very satisfied that you would have such intentions. Your capabilities, wisdom, and talents are a hundred times greater than mine! For your grandfather to hand the Ling Family over to you, I am at ease!” Ling Xiao then revealed a heartfelt smile.

”I am very satisfied that you would have such intentions… for your grandfather to hand the Ling Family over to you, I am at ease!” These words stirred up a huge wave in Ling Tian's heart! He almost began to burst out crying again!

He had always thought that he was extremely intelligent for hiding his strength from his father! He had always avoided his father and even looked down on his father. However, his father had actually guarded him silently for so many years. Despite him a.s.signing a few guards for his father, such a matter was almost insignificant to a general like Ling Xiao. However, Ling Xiao had still said, ”I am very satisfied.” From the way Ling Xiao looked, it was as though he could feel his son's filial intentions from the guards and was completely overjoyed!

The pitiful hearts of all parents in the world! Especially the parents of the secular world!

Ling Xiao let out a laugh and his horse sprinted forward. In the dust cloud, Ling Xiao's voice could be heard, ”With regards to the family members of those traitors, you can make the decision. It is up to you if you want to kill or subdue them. But if you want my advice, I think that their existence would be a wild card and it is best to uproot the weeds by the roots. While I am not a wise man, I definitely understand such a simple logic.” He was indeed an old general who lived on the battlefield. This advice of his was completely in line with Ling Tian's plans.

Ling Tian unknowingly stopped his horse and looked at the majestic silhouette of his father in a daze.
