Chapter 148: The pain hidden deep inside
Echizen family.
The temple is not closed during the day and anyone can come in and out to worship without too many rules.
But few people come here to worship.
After all, there is a plaque of the Echizen family hanging on the door, and most people would think that this is private territory and would not dare to enter alone.
Two unfamiliar figures, a man and a woman, walked into the temple.
Most of the rooms in the temple are locked.
The two had no choice but to follow the shabby sign and walk to the backyard.
Didn't go far.
Then I saw a man lying on his side on the ground reading a small weekly magazine under the eaves next to the big clock.
"Go over there and worship the Buddha. Leave immediately after worshipping. No lingering is allowed~"
The man said without looking up.
The first thing that came across the woman’s face was a look of disgust.
But he seemed to have thought of something, and asked tentatively: "Echizen Nanjiro?"
The person who read the weekly magazine was Echizen Nanjiro.
Hearing someone calling your name.
Nanjiro put down the weekly magazine in his hand, and after seeing who was coming, his face changed slightly, but soon returned to normal.
His tone was cold and indifferent: "The US Open is about to start. Why are you here with a wild man instead of staying at the lighthouse to prepare for the match?"
Hearing this, the woman said angrily: "This is my personal assistant!"
"Really? Your life assistant is a man. I wish you two a happy and long-lasting relationship!"
"you...."
The woman was furious, but thinking that she needed help from the other party, she could only patiently say, "I want to see Xiaonan!"
Hear this.
Nanjiro sneered, put his hand on his chin and said, "What are you doing here? Tell him that you have a new favorite and found him a stepfather?"
"You've gone too far!"
The woman was none other than 'Joanna Longman' or 'Nalan Longman'.
Lin Nan's biological mother.
Nanjiro was not surprised by her appearance.
Lin Nan had anticipated this possibility when he went to the UK.
But he didn't expect it.
Lin Nan hadn't contacted Na Lan yet, but the other party came up to him so quickly.
Nalan Langman said with a gloomy face: "I only have one husband, Dalin. He was my husband before, he is my husband now, and he will be my husband in the future!"
"Tell me where Xiaonan and Dalin are. Why are you hiding from me?"
Where is Dalin?
Hearing these four words, veins on Nanjiro's forehead bulged, his pupils quickly became bloodshot, and the word "hate" was almost engraved on his forehead.
He suppressed his anger and said, "Don't you even know where Dalin is?"
But in the end, Nanjiro almost said it in a roar.
In an instant, the entire temple was shrouded in a suffocating feeling of oppression.
The man who was called the life assistant was worried that Nanjiro would do something out of line, so he wanted to step forward to stop Na Lan.
But at the moment of setting off, he seemed to see a samurai with a sword drawn behind Nanjiro, and his figure kept getting bigger.
Fear instantly took over his entire brain, and the man let out a strange cry and fainted on the ground.
Joanna Longman seemed unaffected and ignored the unconscious man.
But he noticed that something was wrong with Nanjiro's mood, and combined with what Nanjiro had said on the phone about getting tickets for his son, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
With a trembling voice, he said, "Where is Dalin?"
Nanjiro took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He stared at the woman in front of him, his eyes filled with anger and pain.
"Dalin...he's dead!"
Nanjiro gnashed his teeth and said, "Have you forgotten about Dalin's illness? He died of the disease a few years after you abandoned him!"
The expression on Na Lan's face changed from astonishment to confusion, and finally to pain.
She staggered back a few steps and managed to keep her balance by holding onto a pillar.
"No... this is impossible... didn't the surgery cure it?"
Her eyes widened and she shook her head in disbelief.
It seems as if he wants to overthrow the cruel reality before his eyes in this way.
However, a clear voice deep in her heart told her that all this was probably true, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why Nanjiro called Lin Nan his son.
The greatest trust between brothers is to entrust an orphan to someone else.
Thinking of this, tears burst out of her eyes like a flood and slid down her cheeks.
She bit her lips tightly, trying not to cry out, but her body trembled uncontrollably.
"It's cured, but the disease can relapse at any time. Dalin died of the disease seven years ago!"
Nanjiro's voice was filled with sorrow and helplessness, with a hint of crying in it.
His eyes were empty and lifeless, as if he had lost all his life.
Beneath the seemingly optimistic and strong appearance, there is a heart that has long been corroded by hatred.
The great pain brought by Obayashi's death always lingered in Nanjiro's heart, but he had always forced himself to bury the sorrow deep in his heart.
She knew that she couldn't show weakness in front of Lin Nan, lest he be reminded of his father's tragic death.
That painful memory was too cruel for Lin Nan.
Bone cancer.
This demon is known as the "King of Cancer".
Not only did it destroy Dalin's body, but it also caused him to suffer pain that ordinary people could hardly imagine.
People often say that pain goes deep into the bone.
But the pain from bone cancer originates from within the bones.
The despair and torture that spread from the inside out to the depths of the soul cannot be described in words.
Nanjiro will never forget the tragic condition of Obayashi before his death and his earnest instructions to him.
Whenever I think of Dalin’s haggard face beside his sickbed.
Nanjiro felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife and he almost suffocated.
In a trance, Nalan Langman seemed to have aged a lot, and her spirit and energy disappeared without a trace at this moment.
He murmured, "Seven years ago..."
She talked about why she left and her pursuit of dreams, and also said that she had been trying to contact her husband over the years.
But there was no news.
At first she thought that her husband just hated him for leaving without saying goodbye and that he would get better after a while.
I didn't expect that this wait would last forever.
After hearing this, Nanjiro's face was full of sarcasm, and he sneered: "Da Lin has been trying to contact you, but you have never replied to her. What a lie!"
"Impossible, if he contacts..."
Halfway through her words, Nalan Langman's face suddenly turned pale.
She thought of a possibility.
When she returned to the professional arena, in order to focus on competition and training, most of her mobile phones were managed by her agent "Marian".
Judging from the other party's words and actions, he is definitely capable of hiding something.
Nanjiro didn't care what Nalan Langman was thinking, and said in a cold tone: "Leave, you are not welcome here, and Renzi won't welcome you either. Xiaonan only hates you."
Nalan Langman did not refute.
No one would be able to forgive their mother after experiencing these things.
In fact, she didn't know.
Lin Nan hated her not because of what happened to his biological father, but because of the hatred of being abandoned and being an orphan in two lifetimes.
Nalan Langman stood up.
He picked up the life assistant with one hand: "I'm going to the lighthouse to deal with some things. I'll be back after I'm done."
"You have no say in Xiaonan's affairs. I am his biological mother."
After saying that, he didn't give Nanci a chance to refute and turned around and left.
.....
.....
Lin Nan didn't know that his biological mother had come to his door.
He was in a state of extreme joy because of a series of system messages.
