chapter 12 Straight to the soul

"It's time to eat——" Li Dongzheng was leaning against the door, with his hands folded across his chest, smiling and looking at Willa Lin who was helping him tidy up the room. At this time, Lilah Liu's voice came. Whoosh! Roman Li disappeared directly and was in the kitchen the next moment. "Wow - it smells so good. What delicious food did Auntie make tonight?" Roman Li walked over without politeness, took the bowls and chopsticks to help set them up, and served the rice. "They're just home-cooked dishes. I don't know if you can get used to them."Lilah Liu said with a smile. "What I like most is home-cooked food. This dish looks full of color, aroma and flavor. It must be delicious." "It's just your sweet mouth." Lilah Liu's smile became even brighter, "If you like to eat, I will make more in the future so that you can eat enough." "Thank you, aunt." Willa Lin walked in at this time and couldn't help but feel a little sour when she saw Roman Li and Liu Jing chatting happily. I just met this guy today, and within a long time of coming home, he made his mother smile so much that she thought he was his parents' son. She glanced at Lilah Liu resentfully and wanted to say, "Mom, you have changed. You don't even call me to eat anymore." "Why are you still standing there? Go and ask your dad to come down for dinner." Seeing Willa Lin standing there motionless, Lilah Liu glared at her. "oh." Willa Lin responded unhappily, glared at Roman Li, turned around and went upstairs. Roman Li didn't care and continued chatting with Lilah Liu. He knew very well that if he wanted to have something happen with Willa Lin, he not only had to work hard on Willa Lin, but also had to deal with her parents. After taking care of the uncle and aunt, how could a mere little girl escape from his grasp? Soon, Willa Lin pushed a wheelchair in. There was a middle-aged man sitting in a wheelchair. He looked quite handsome, but his face looked a little haggard. The stubble on his chin had not been shaved for a few days, and he looked lackluster. He is Willa Lin's father, Brian Lin. "Hello, uncle, my name is Roman Li. I just rented a house at your house today." Roman Li took the initiative to stand up and say hello. Brian Lin glanced at him and nodded, "Hello." Other than that, not much else is said. Since he became paralyzed, he has become a man of few words. He didn't even pay much attention to things at home. He was immersed in his own world all day long and didn't know what he was thinking about every day. Roman Li didn't care either. He sat down with a smile and started eating. "Wow - Auntie, your cooking is really great. I haven't had such delicious food in a long time." Roman Li devoured it and finished the bowl of rice in just a few mouthfuls. Then he stood up unceremoniously and went to fill another bowl. "If it's delicious, eat more."Lilah Liu said with a smile. Willa Lin looked at Roman Li speechlessly. This guy ate in such a hurry that some people thought he was released from some prison. Is mom’s cooking so delicious? After eating it for so many years, she doesn’t think it’s particularly delicious, right? At the dinner table, Roman Li and Liu Jing chatted happily. Willa Lin occasionally interrupted, but Brian Lin remained silent the whole time and ate in silence. "I've finished eating. You guys eat slowly." Brian Lin suddenly put down his bowl, said hello, and pushed his wheelchair out. Lilah Liu frowned. She looked at Brian Lin's back for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly. Once upon a time, my husband was so ambitious, and the lofty ideals he once promised to him are now a thing of the past. She knew his suffering, but after so many years, did he know her suffering? The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. "Roman Li, I beg you, help my dad. As long as you can heal his leg and let him stand up again, I can do anything you ask me to do." Willa Lin suddenly looked at Roman Li and begged. "Okay, I'll do my best!" Roman Li nodded solemnly, "After dinner, I'll go see my uncle." He just saw despair in Brian Lin's eyes, a kind of despair that gave up on himself and had no love for life. This kind of attitude is a huge blow to a family when it appears in the head of a family. Roman Li wants to change all this. Soon, after eating, Roman Li came directly to Brian Lin's study. "Boom!" He knocked on the door. "come in!" Brian Lin's vicissitudes of voice came from inside. Roman Li opened the door and walked in, and saw Brian Lin sitting at the window of the study, looking out the window in ecstasy. "Hello, uncle!"Roman Li greeted. Then he sat down on a chair without ceremony. Brian Lin couldn't help but frowned when he saw that it was Roman Li coming in. "What are you doing here?" Now, he doesn't like to communicate with outsiders. "I just want to talk to uncle."Roman Li said with a smile. "I'm a little tired and want to be alone for a while. You can go out." Brian Lin did not hesitate to issue an eviction order. Roman Li didn't leave, but his eyes suddenly became cold. "Do you know what happened today?"Roman Li asked lightly. Brian Lin was silent. He is paralyzed, but he is not deaf. Of course he knows that Scar and those people came to make trouble today. I also know that Willa Lin and Lilah Liu must have been wronged. But what can he do? With him like this, one can only pretend that he doesn't know. "Do you know that Willa was almost taken away today and was raped by the Young Master of the Su Family ?" "Do you know that Auntie humbled herself to those Willa so that Yurou would not be harmed, but she was slapped by those scumbags?" "Do you know how much they have suffered over the years because of you?" "As a man, don't you feel any guilt at all?" Roman Li unceremoniously asked a few questions that hit his soul. At first, Brian Lin was very calm. But as these questions came out, Roman Li noticed that his fists were quietly clenched. "Do you know how much looks the mother and daughter have received outside because of you?" "They should have lived a happy and stable life, but because of you, they live in fear every day." "As a man, you have done nothing. Don't you think you are a waste?" "ah--" Brian Lin suddenly roared, clenched his fists and hit his unconscious leg hard. "Yeah, I'm a waste, I'm a waste!" "I'm useless. I can't take care of them, mother and daughter, and I have to ask them to take care of me, a loser. I feel sorry for them!" His eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face.
