C3 I Can't Bear to Look Back

After about an hour or so, Old Master Lin, who went to the hospital to check his body, was sent back by the driver. Following that, the nanny pushed Old Master Lin into the dining room with a wheelchair.

"Grandfather, it's Mu." Lin Mu squatted in front of Old Master Lin's wheelchair and gently held his grandfather's hand, "Tomorrow is the holidays, I came back to see you."

"Uh, uh, okay."

Old Master Lin's gaze was very dull. As he looked at his grandson squatting in front of him, a string of vague words came out of his mouth.

Seeing his grandfather like this, Lin Mu also felt very sad.

His parents had died in a car accident a few years ago. Old Master Lin, who had lost his son due to old age, could not bear the impact and suffered from senile dementia a few days later.

Lin Mu didn't stay in the restaurant for long after the family finished their dinner because he knew what would happen next.

It was the same every week, so he finished his meal early and hurried upstairs to his room.

Sure enough, not long after, the sounds of arguing could be heard coming from the restaurant.

After hearing only a few sentences, Lin Mu got annoyed. He sighed and closed the door.

Lin Mu took out a bottle of white wine from the cabinet and walked onto the balcony. He looked at the Eastsea City that was lit up with a neon light, and Lin Mu, who had a gloomy expression, took a big gulp of wine.

"Cough!" "Ahem!"

"Dad, mom, do you know all this?"

"Heh, you guys didn't know that you left too early …" The Lin Family is about to break into pieces. "

Lin Mu, whose eyes were a bit moist, wiped his mouth and suddenly punched the fence as he muttered softly.

In the entire Lin Family, only his third son, Lin Yi Qing, had truly inherited Old Master Lin's ability to appraise treasures.

The other two sons and daughters had already turned completely into merchants with stinky bodies.

Antiques were just a tool they used to amass wealth.

Towards these ancient tools that had lasted for hundreds or even thousands of years, they did not have the slightest bit of respect for them. All they had was an undisguised desire for money.

Old Master Lin, who had originally thought that he would succeed in his family business, was in high spirits. However, the good times did not last long. Just as Lin Yi Qing was preparing to officially take over the family business, Old Master Lin and his wife were on their way home.

A earthcar loaded with gravel crashed into their Mercedes from the side.

Even Mercedes-Benz limousines, which cost nearly a million dollars, can't withstand a crash that weighs tens of tons.

The couple died on the spot, and they left their only son, Lin Mu, without even having the chance to send him to the hospital.

When they went to the hospital to claim the body, Old Master Lin insisted on not letting Lin Mu go and did not want anyone to accompany him.

Lin Mu only knew that when his grandpa came back from the hospital, the old man who was originally in high spirits seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. His straight back also bent down as he looked at Lin Mu who was sitting dumbly in the living room and only said one sentence.

"Child, come live with grandpa in the future."

Later on, Lin Mu heard from his Big Uncle that his parents were almost smashed into a pile of minced meat by the uncontrollable earthen carriage. By the time he sent it to the hospital, it was already beyond recognition.

It was because of this reason that his grandfather didn't let him go to the hospital.

Old Master Lin's consideration was right. Even though he had experienced countless hardships in his life, he had also become senile in the face of this heavy blow, not to mention Lin Mu, who was still half a child at that time.

He had imagined that scene more than once in his mind. Even today, when Lin Mu thought of that scene, he still couldn't stop his tears from flowing out.

"Gudong!" "Gudong!"

After taking another big gulp of the wine, Lin Mu's gaze had become a little loose. He leaned against the railing full of alcohol and let the tears fall.

Just as Lin Mu was immersed in his own world, a knock suddenly sounded on the door. Following which, Second Uncle Lin Yifu walked in and immediately saw Lin Mu on the balcony.

Lin Yifu's eyes flashed, then he quietly put the thing back into his pocket.

"What happened, Mu, did you miss your parents again?" Lin Yifu seemed to be concerned about Lin Mu's tearful face and blurry eyes.

"Second Uncle, is something the matter?" Lin Mu turned around and glanced at Lin Yifu.

Lin Yifu shook his head and chuckled softly. "It's nothing important. I just saw that you left in a hurry and I was afraid that something might have happened to you, so I came to see you."

"Then thank you second uncle, I'm fine." Lin Mu turned his head and replied plainly.

"Mu, it's indeed a pity that your parents left so early." Lin Yifu leaned on the fence, his eyes seemed a little empty.

"Out of the four siblings in my family, the only one who truly learned all of the lordmaster's abilities was third brother, and that's your father."

"Unfortunately, your father was too engrossed in learning. He only knew how to appreciate the cultural value of those antiques and never paid any attention to the economic benefits they brought."

"We are a family with a huge industrial chain to maintain, not a museum for academic research."

"Your father was the boss in the past few years, and the family business lost a lot, but the old man insisted on letting your father take over the family business."

Lin Mu was half-leaning against the fence with the bottle in hand, listening to Lin Yifu's words quietly. No one knew what he was thinking.

Looking at the dazed Lin Mu, Lin Yifu smiled and put his right hand on Lin Mu's shoulder, patting him lightly.

"Second Uncle is trying to tell you that you mustn't do anything beyond what you are capable of. If you do, something big will happen."

Lin Mu was stunned for a moment, but before he understood the meaning of the words, he felt the hand on his shoulder suddenly push.

Lin Mu, who was drunk, immediately tilted his body and fell off the balcony on the fourth floor.

"Bam!"

On the first floor's stairs, scarlet blood was quickly spreading out from under Lin Mu's body.
