This action caused everyone to be stunned.

They were waiting for a signal from Ling Chen.

With swords drawn and crossbows drawn, Zhang Xiao Xiao took two steps forward. She could not watch uncle suffer a loss.

Only, with Zhang Xiao Xiao's footsteps slightly moving, Ling Guoyuan shot an extremely cold gaze over. The hidden darkness and disgust in his eyes actually made Zhang Xiao Xiao subconsciously shudder, and then, a warm hand grabbed his wrist, bringing about a gentle and comforting gaze from Ling Chen.

The emotions that had been churning in his heart slowly calmed down.

That's right, with so many people by his side, even if Ling Guoyuan had the ability to transcend the heavens, he would not kidnap him away.

In this moment of silence, the three burly men who were originally standing by Ling Guoyuan's side mercilessly went forward to surround Ling Chen, and smoothly protected the sinister looking Ling Guoyuan behind them.

"Uncle, what's wrong with him today?" Du Zetang seemed to be smiling, but there wasn't much laughter in his eyes.

He had followed Ling Chen for so many years, he had already seen through the identity of the man in front of him.

"Scram, do you really have to say anything about our Ling Family?" Ling Guoyuan glared at Du Zetang in extreme displeasure, and then fished out an envelope from his jacket pocket.

"Ling Chen, you'd better listen to me obediently and follow me back. You know what kind of responsibility a son of the Ling Family has to bear." Ling Guoyuan smiled sinisterly. Other than being immensely proud, he was also extremely happy.

As matters stood, he had long since understood that the relationship between father and son had been resolved. Indeed, it was right to deal with that slut earlier. In this world, only benefits and money would never change!

The envelope was aged, the corners were yellow, the postal code of the recipient and sender were all meticulously written, the handwriting was beautiful and cute, but Ling Guoyuan quickly kept it, and Zhang Xiao Xiao could only vaguely make out the outline.

Ling Chen's gaze was fixed on the envelope, but his usually calm and collected face now had a look of disgust, fury, and even intense hatred!

Other people might not be able to see it clearly, but Zhang Xiao Xiao, who was stopped by Ling Chen, could clearly feel his uncle's trembling!

What was he afraid of, that letter?

"Are you sure you want it?" Not to mention Zhang Xiao Xiao, even Xu Ge and the others could clearly see the scarlet red in Ling Chen's eyes. Subconsciously, the three of them went forward together, attempting to knock down the big men.

They were not weak scholars. It was enough to deal with a few of them.

"Heh, your son is disobedient, so I can only do this. Listen to me, quickly take this strange woman away, and obediently go back to marry An Qinghuan. I can pretend that nothing happened." Ling Guoyuan smiled provocatively, and blew at the envelope lightly, his eyes showing absolute confidence.

The atmosphere suddenly became even more tense. Ling Chen tightly held onto Zhang Xiao Xiao's hand with one hand, and tightly clenched his fist with the other.

"That's your wife!" Ling Chen almost lost control of himself as his eyes turned even redder. His hoarse voice startled everyone present.

Du Zetang subconsciously looked towards Ling Guoyuan. After a long while, as if he had understood something, he used more strength in his hands and fiercely threw the man in front of him onto the ground. Xu Ge and the others did not show any signs of weakness.

Zhang Xiao Xiao looked at everything in front of him with a misty gaze, as he vaguely remembered what Ling Chen had said at that time.

Although Ling Chen's mother died from depression, it was not only Ling Guoyuan who cheated. If a man did not love her anymore, then it could be considered as him not loving her anymore, but what made people's hearts tremble was that at that time, he had clearly found a reason to slander Ling Chen's mother, and this news was practically known by every household.

In the end, Ling Chen's mother died of depression, but Ling Guoyuan actually took the so-called evidence to the Su Family to sell. On account of the Su Family helping him, he did not spread such shameful evidence, and from then on, they owed each other nothing.

At that time, Ling Guoyuan was only in his thirties, yet his heart was already so venomous.

Recalling the letter again, this should be the legendary evidence, right?

Even though Su Ge had already passed on, in the uncle's heart, his mother's reputation was the most important thing. Now that Ling Guoyuan was using this to threaten him, it was truly a good plan.

Zhang Xiao Xiao thought until this point, his face also darkened, he then walked forward a few steps, trying to take back the so called evidence.

Who would have known, that upon seeing this, Ling Guoyuan did not even have a trace of fear, and instead had an extremely calm and composed smile.

"You guys can snatch it away from me, but I don't know how many of them there are, and the more you take the spear, the more guilty you become, Heh, Ling Chen, even if you don't want to, you have to go back with me today!"

After hearing this sentence, Du Zetang furrowed his brows, but still lowered his hand in the end.

"Alright, I'll go with you." Ling Chen's voice was hoarse, as if he had exhausted all of his strength.

Zhang Xiao Xiao felt as if he was struck by lightning from a clear sky.

An enormous wave of grief swept over, to the point where she didn't even dare to raise her head to look at Ling Chen.

Yes, this was inevitable. In front of him and his mother, he would definitely choose his mother. What was she to blame?

Zhang Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes, and did not see the heartache in Du Zetang's and the others' eyes, nor did he see Ling Chen's painful tears.

Just like that, a burning hot drop ferociously smashed onto the ground like an iron ball.

Ling Chen lightly patted the girl's soft hands. He had wanted to rub her head again, but he held himself back when he saw the frightened look on her face.

"Wait for me to come back." His hoarse voice did not avoid Ling Guoyuan's anger in the slightest.

"Heh, let's go!" With the evidence in his hands, he had something to threaten Ling Chen with. These days, he finally got this letter with difficulty.
