Chapter 197: Lies

Jiang Tao looked straight at Lin Hao for a while and didn’t make a sound, his brows were furrowed and he didn’t care that his behavior was extremely rude, while Lin Hao avoided Jiang Tao’s direct gaze and looked at Fatty, but Fatty didn’t have a good feeling about him either and was counting his fingers to himself, with no intention of answering Lin Hao.

Lin Hao then looked at the caregiver, because it was impossible for the caregiver not to answer his questions, just as he expected, the caregiver said that Zi Shan was very good today, but did not mention that someone had disturbed Zi Shan’s rest – she felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange, so she did not say much and found an excuse to go out.

Jiang Tao retracted his gaze to look at the hospital bed of Zi Shan, his heart instantly turned a lot of thoughts, Zi Shan and Lin Hao’s sister met, then Lin Hao’s sister naturally know Zi Shan and Lin Hao’s relationship, after she came to the city of blue water in the reason should come to visit Zi Shan, but she did not come and Lin Hao did not let her come.

There is only one reason why Lin Hao’s sister didn’t come to visit her, and that is because the elders of Lin Hao’s family don’t agree with him and Zi Shan’s dating, so Lin Hao’s sister didn’t come to visit Zi Shan. If that was the case, the variables between Zi Shan and Lin Hao had increased by one.

Jiang Tao faintly asked, ”Your sister doesn’t like Zi Shan, right? Does everyone in your family dislike Zi Shan, and the baby.” He stared at Lin Hao once again, “There are some things that can’t be escaped, you always have to think of a way out. Besides, both Zi Shan and the baby are extremely sensitive, even if Zi Shan didn’t say it but she should be worried about this matter in her heart, because your family’s elder is sick but none of your family members came to visit her, this, represents rejection, right?”

Lin Hao’s lips were pulled a little thin from pursing his lips, “You’re overthinking it. Besides, when you and I are at this age, can’t we even make decisions about our own marriages? Also, our family doesn’t have any criticism of Zi Shan, indeed they know the existence of the baby, they didn’t come to visit Zi Shan because they hadn’t met before, and coming at this time is also a kind of pressure on Zi Shan, they want to wait until she’s better. I naturally know our affairs in my heart.”

He glanced at Jiang Tao when he said the last sentence, although he didn’t say anything explicitly but the meaning was still obvious – you don’t meddle too much.

Jiang Tao lowered his head, “With you here, Fatty and I still have things to do so we’ll leave first, it’s sox Jing and the others who are uneasy letting us come over to take a look, seeing as Zi Shan is recovering well, go back and tell them.” After he finished speaking, Fatty also stood up–Fatty’s feelings towards Lin Hao were far from what they used to be.

Originally, Fatty was just as casual with Lin Hao as he was with Jiang Tao, we were all friends, but since the day Zi Shan was injured, Lin Hao left Zi Shan behind, Fatty and the others had too much resentment towards Lin Hao, but they wanted Lin Hao’s explanation because of Zi Shan’s relationship. No matter what kind of explanation it was, as long as Lin Hao was willing to talk about it, it would be fine, and at least it would show that Lin Hao valued Zi Shan and respected them as friends.

But Lin Hao did not say anything, wait until later he actually just said to Jiang Tao alone, Fatty heard Jiang Tao’s relay, but his good feelings towards Lin Hao is really not much left – is not something unseemly, the father is sick what can not be said, you say it out of everyone can not understand? But you just won’t open your mouth, and you’re using Jiang Tao to speak for you, what does that mean?

Are you looking down on them, Zi Shan’s friends, or do you simply not have enough respect for Zi Shan? Anyway, Fatty and Xue Jing were just uncomfortable, very uncomfortable. Moreover, Fatty really wasn’t the type to drive people away and flatter them, so he stayed away from Lin Hao.

Chu Xiang and Xue Jing were even more direct, because their friendship with Zi Shan was different, and they had more ideas than Fatty and these men, so they were even less likely to give Lin Hao a good look, and Lin Hao tried to avoid meeting them, which in turn aggravated Xue Jing’s ill feelings towards him.

However, in Lin Hao’s opinion, everything now was somehow annoying him. He had explained what he needed to explain, and either Jiang Tao’s words were unclear or Xue Jing and the others were being unreasonable, but he didn’t really care anyway – if it wasn’t for Zi Shan, he wouldn’t have become friends with Xue Jing and the others.

As long as Zi Shan can be happy, the other he persuaded himself not to put on the heart, day by day, naturally there will be XJ and the girls will understand the time, now he is to say more and more is of no use.

Seeing that Fatty and Jiang Tao wanted to leave, Lin Hao gently nodded: “Okay. I’m going to leave after a while, you guys go, there’s an escort here, as well as doctors and nurses, you don’t need to worry too much.” He sat down on the bed, his face showing fatigue, as if he hadn’t slept all night and hadn’t gotten any rest during the day.

Jiang Tao didn’t say anything else and left with Fatty in silence, because of Lin Hao he didn’t even look at Zi Shan more than once, but his mood was obviously not as relaxed as when he had only just arrived. After leaving the ward, he couldn’t help but sigh.

Fatty looked at him, ”Is Lin Hao’s family hard to get along with? Actually, thinking about it, you can’t blame him, it’s his real father over there.”

Jiang Tao shook his head and thought again before speaking, “Not really. Let’s talk about it when the time comes, and speaking of which, Lin Hao and I are excellent friends, I should also go over to see his father when he’s sick, well, Uncle Lin and the others are still treating me very well, so I can’t hurt the old man’s heart because of Lin Hao’s relationship.” He stopped to go back and ask Lin Hao, but thinking about it and being really lazy to talk to Lin Hao, he took out his cell phone to dial Lin Hao’s father.

He thought that the person who answered the phone would be Lin Hao’s mother, anyway, they were all very familiar with each other and didn’t have to mind so much, if it wasn’t for the fact that Zi Shan’s matter had bothered him in the past two days and he had a knot in his heart with Lin Hao, he should have gone there on the first day he heard that Lin Hao’s father was sick.

Thinking about how well the Lin family treated him made him feel extremely guilty, he was not a child, he couldn’t put the Lin family’s good treatment behind him just because his relationship with Lin Hao was a bit delicate. If the Lin family was fine, he really didn’t need to go to the door, but now Lin Hao’s father was sick, he should go and visit him as a matter of course.

While listening to the ringing of the phone, he asked Fatty, “Buy a bouquet of flowers and a big fruit basket for me, it’s not good to visit the patient empty-handed.” Fatty agreed dryly and walked away to buy the things, and at this time a thick baritone voice also came from the phone.

“Xiao Jiang right? How come you remembered to call me as an old man, I thought you only remembered the phone numbers of those pretty girls, it’s really flattering to have my number remembered by you.” Lin father always liked to joke with Jiang Tao.

Jiang Tao froze slightly when he heard Lin father’s bottom voice: “Nothing, just thought I’d go and see you, your body–,” he paused slightly, “Is it alright?”

Lin’s father laughed out loud, “You’re serious? That’s great, if you really want to come and see me as an old man, I’ll make sure to have your aunt cook a few of your favorite dishes, my health is fine, you guys don’t have to worry about me, I have a little bit of a problem but you know me, how could I possibly get sick? There’s nothing in this world that my old man can’t see, it’s only better than your health.”

“But, I can write down your words Xiao Jiang, don’t cheat ah, in a few days will be on annual vacation, right? Remember to come to the house ah, otherwise old man I will chase to your Blue Water City.” He said and laughed again.

Jiang Tao’s eyebrows raised, “Uncle have you moved upstairs? Is it cold at home? If you’re in Blue Water City, I’d like to eat the dishes Auntie made tonight.”

Lin father’s laughter was always so cheerful: “Moved upstairs, it’s cold in the bungalow in the winter, I’ll move back after spring, serve some fruits and vegetables, feed the chickens and ducks, and my mood won’t be that good again. Hear, your aunt heard you want her vegetables happy bad, if it is not almost to the Spring Festival home busy, we will go to the Blue Water tomorrow to see you two boys.”

“Your aunt pickled eggs also left you a lot of it, that is our hand-fed chicken, taste is not the same ah, yes, the Spring Festival came I will slaughter a big rooster, that taste no matter how to eat is called a fragrant ah.” Lin’s father was very talkative and started talking about his chickens and ducks on the phone, and of course he didn’t forget about the two dogs he raised.

Jiang Tao, however, was no longer in the mood for jokes, only responding to one or two sounds from time to time, barely suppressing his stomach of fire, although maintaining a calm voice, but the slight tremor of his body still betrayed him, if the fat man came back and saw it, a glance would tell him that he was furious.

It was not easy for Lin father to finish: “Well, I know you are busy, let Lin Hao that boy pay attention to the body ah, you are the same, remember the New Year’s time home to come, OK, do not say, or your aunt again to shiver me.”

Jiang Tao gently spat out “goodbye” and hung up the phone, the phone was clutched by him hard, the keys were pressed down, the phone screen appeared line after line of letters or numbers, he did not pay attention to those, now his brain has only one idea – why? Lin Hao was lying to him.

Lin father’s age is not small, although the body has been said to be strong can really have a heart attack, Lin Hao how can say that his father’s heart disease seriously hospitalized it, this is more or less a little bit bad – not to say that it is a superstition, will always make people feel uncomfortable, is a child will not be so “curse”! “Their parents.

Jiang Tao just can’t imagine, what kind of things will make Lin Hao not hesitate to tell such lies, not Lin Hao’s father is sick, then what kind of things can make Lin Hao left Zishan leave? Although he was dissatisfied with Lin Hao, but with his understanding of Lin Hao, he was still very sure of Lin Hao’s feelings for Zi Shan.

Lin Hao really liked Zi Shan, that was no lie, but why would Lin Hao leave Zi Shan behind? What person or thing could be heavier than Zi Shan?

The veins on Jiang Tao’s forehead flared up, startling the fat man who rushed over with his things, “You, what’s wrong with you?”
