Wait a minute, I am very confused!
Let me rearrange my thoughts!
Hands on her forehead, Abigale looked at the two people in the yard.
For a moment, she didn't understand what was happening.
Why would Liam Lei, a playboy, kneel down to Aiden?
What did he say that his father was saved by Aiden?
How was it saved? When was it saved?
Also, he, a casanova from the East Mountain, wanted to become Aiden’s disciple?
What did he want to learn from him?
What's more, the main question was, why did Liam Lei mention saving people and becoming disciples?
Didn't Aiden go to a night of debauchery with this casanova last night?
With a smile on his face, Aiden kicked Liam, cursing,
“I don’t need your thanks!”
“Since I said I would help your dad take out the bullet, I will definitely do it!”
“Go back and take care of him. Don't let him move too vigorously these days!”
“Also, don’t make him angry again! "
Liam stood up. When he saw Aiden carrying the bag, he questioned,
"Master, where are you going? I'll take you there!"
Aiden smiled and said, "I told you not to call me master, as I have no intention of accepting a disciple!”
“'m going back to Green Mountain! See you again in the future! "
"Stop right there!" Abigale stood at the door of the living room, looked at Aiden and asked,
"Explain to me, what is going on? Where did you go last night?"
Aiden turned to look at her coldly, "Explain to you?”
“Haha, Abigale, do you really think of me as your Ning Family son-in-law?”
“Do I need to explain to you where I am going? "
Abigale gritted her teeth and said, "Aiden, do you think you are still reasonable?”
“Last night was our wedding night. You stayed out all night and now you don't even explain!?!”
“Do you take me seriously? Don't forget, I am your wife! "
Aiden stared at Abigale and said,
"Abigale, let me tell you too!”
“Don't think that just because I'm your Ning Family's son-in-law, you can dictate my life!”
“I never care about being a live-in son-in-law or not.”
“But if you think you can take advantage of me because of this, you are totally wrong!”
“Green Mountain is not as wealthy as Panlong Bay.”
“But this doesn't mean that I, Aiden, am inferior to you , Abigale!”
“You don’t want to be my wife, and I don’t want to be your husband yet!”
“Don't you want me to get out?”
“Fine! Then I will return to Green Mountain, and we are done! "
"You..." Abigale stamped her feet angrily, wanting to stop him but not knowing how to speak.
But at this moment, a sigh came from behind,
“You kids!”
“Aiden, stop!"
Hearing the old madam's voice, Aiden had no choice but to stop.
Abigale turned around and hugged the old madam who came out.
She said aggrievedly, "Grandma, look at him, he doesn't take me seriously at all!”
“Yesterday was such an important day. Grandma, you even waited until eleven o'clock!”
“But he stayed out all night and spent the whole night drinking and playing!”
“Do you think I shouldn't lecture him?”
“He just hung on to my words and left right away!”
“Since he wants to leave, let him go! He won't stay even if he is forced to!"
"Madam, I finally understand. You have wronged my master!"
Liam Lei said to Abigale,
"What does it mean playing and drinking all night?”
“My master was performing a surgery on my dad at the Community Specialist Hospital last night!
“He worked all night and took out the bullet from my dad's head!”
“He worked all night and came back without eating or drinking.”
“You actually misunderstood that he was going to have fun!”
“If you don’t believe it, you can ask Dr. Li and expert doctors from various disciplines.”
“Everyone can testify! "
So that’s it!
Abigale's face turned red with shame. She had really wronged him!
The old madam stretched out her hand and tapped her forehead gently, complaining,
"Girl, you are always like this, concern will cause confusion!"
Abigale eyes widened, looking like she had been wronged,
"Do I care about him? Grandma, you are wrong about this!”
“I just don’t want others to think that the women of our Ning Family are stupid and easy to bully..."
The old madam smiled and shook her head. She looked at Aiden and said,
"Kid, come upstairs with me, I have something to show you!"
Old madam, I'm almost out the door. Why did you stop me and make me embarrassed?
Holding his bag, Aiden was in a dilemma, deciding either to leave or to follow her back.
Liam Lei was smart enough to grab his bag and said with a smile,
"Master, let me help you carry it in!”
“My oh my, why didn't you say yesterday was a big day!”
“If I had known this, my dad would never have agreed to your surgery!”
“Look at what you have done now, you didn’t even prepare a gift! You see, madam actually misunderstood you..."
It was because you are so talkative!
If you didn't talk too much, I would already be on my way to the train station.
I could return to Green Mountain in the afternoon!
The more Aiden thought about it, the angrier he became. He slapped Liam on the head.
Liam looked aggrieved, "Master, why did you hit me again?"
"Don't you want to be my apprentice? Isn't it natural for a master to beat his apprentice?"
"What you said makes sense! Then beat me, master, as long as you are happy!"
"Damn! That's so mean!"
The old madam asked Aiden to enter her room on the second floor, and sat on a wooden chair.
Then, she said to Abigale who helped her in,
"Girl, there is a box on top of the wardrobe on the wall. Please help me take it down!"
Abigale opened the closet. She took out the wooden box from the upper partition and handed it to the old madam.
It's a bit like a box for mooncakes, with a red string tied to the side.
The old madam untied the red rope and opened the box.
There were some things inside that looked dated.
There were bracelets, pens, silver dollars, and a book.
The old madam picked up the book, opened it, and took out a yellowed black and white photo.
Looking at the photo, the old madam looked a little sad, before handing it to Aiden.
There were two people in the photo. They looked young, probably in their early twenties, and dressed simply.
As for looks, they could only say that they were average. One of them had a longer face and looked like a horse.
The other one had a stronger body and looked like an ox.
The old madam said to Abigale, who was leaning forward to peek at the photo, "Abigale, the one on the right is your father!"
"Pfft!" Aiden couldn't help laughing.
This was really unimaginable!
With Abigale's small body, she couldn't imagine that her father would be as strong as an ox!
"You're so ridiculous!" Abigale knew what this kid was thinking, so she blushed and rolled her eyes at him.
Then the old madam said to Aiden, "The one on the left is your father!"
What the… fuck!
What did she say?
Was this horse-faced man my father?
Was she kidding me?
"Hahaha!" Abigale laughed in an indistinct manner.
The eyes looking at Aiden were full of contempt.
My dad was not good-looking, your dad neither!
Aiden was in no mood to argue with this woman, and just stared at the photo.
His memories before the age of seven were too vague.
But he vaguely felt that the old madam did not lie to him. This man was really his father!
The key was, why was his father and Abigale's father in the same frame?
And judging from the way the two of them were holding each other's back, it's obvious that they knew each other and had a very good relationship!
Taking a deep breath, the old madam said to Aiden,
"Jayden and Dylan are comrades-in-arms. They once went to the battlefield together.”
“After returning, they were assigned to the East Mountain Distillery together.”
“Hayden has saved your father three times.”
“Aiden, I will not say anything about a father's debt being paid by his son.”
“After all, the relationship between your father and Abigale's father means that you don't have to repay anything at all.”
“But grandma only asks you to save Abigale once, can you promise me? "
