Chapter 484 - 484 480 Mom Xiao Lin First Update!

484: Chapter 480: Mom Xiao Lin (First Update!) 484: Chapter 480: Mom Xiao Lin (First Update!) “Big brother, how come you’re also taking this road?”

Liu Nai’er stood charmingly in the middle of the country road, her voice carrying like that of an oriole, looking at Lin Tian and Xu Tangge with great surprise.

Hearing her voice, Lin Tian and Xu Tangge stopped in their tracks.

Seeing the girl whose leg he had helped treat on the bus, Lin Tian was stunned.

After getting off the bus, they hadn’t noticed at what point the girl had gotten ahead of them.

“Is your home around here?”

Searching through his memory, Lin Tian felt that the girl before him seemed familiar but still couldn’t be sure who she was.

After all, aside from Youlan Village, there were other villages around and even people from the towns, perhaps someone he had seen by chance before.

“Yeah, my home is around here too!”

Liu Nai’er blinked her beautiful eyes and nodded in response, “My name is Liu Nai’er, big brother, what’s yours?”

“Oh, I am Lin Tian!”

Lin Tian hadn’t told her his name on the bus before.

“Lin Tian?

Sounds somewhat familiar, big brother, maybe you’re from the next village!”

Liu Nai’er thought of the first boy who had touched her thigh, living just next door, where they would have to face each other regularly, felt her pretty face redden up again.

“The name, Lin Tian, may not be very familiar to the villagers.

Previously…”

Lin Tian began to say, then turned his head to look at Xu Tangge and coughed slightly, “Previously everyone used to call me Muuu Lengzi!”

Pfft~

Xu Tangge couldn’t help but laugh out loud, hearing Lin Tian’s nickname for the first time.

“Muuu Lengzi, big brother?

Ah…”

With a cry of surprise, Liu Nai’er’s face flushed with embarrassment; she quickly lowered her head, turned around, and ran off swiftly, disappearing in an instant.

Wow, how come Muuu Lengzi, big brother, has changed so much?

He looks even more handsome and has a better presence than before.

He’s like a totally different person!

I can’t even recognize him!

Oh my God, he touched my leg; I’ll die of embarrassment when I see him again…

In the distance, Liu Nai’er, with her long legs fleeing at great speed, thought to herself, her mind a jumble.

Really, after practicing cultivation, Lin Tian had changed so much.

Especially after Foundation Establishment, there didn’t seem to be much change at a glance, but a closer look would reveal that his whole aura was almost as different as heaven and earth.

It’s just that Xu Tangge, who was always with Lin Tian, didn’t notice the seemingly subtle yet vast change.

Watching Liu Nai’er’s escape, Lin Tian, standing still, was dumbfounded.

“Her reaction, seems like she knows you?”

Xu Tangge put away her smile, looking over with surprise.

“Shouldn’t be the case, right?

Nobody in our village is named Liu Nai’er!

Besides, there are several villages nearby, with many Liu surnames, it might be from the neighboring village!”

Lin Tian frowned, scavenging through his memory, utterly unable to recall any specific information about Liu Nai’er or the girl before him.

“Hmph!

Seems like you were quite famous when you were a kid!

Surely you were the little rascal who especially tormented other people’s little girls!

Now they hear your nickname, and it scared her off…”

Xu Tangge’s eyes sparkled with amusement and schadenfreude as she scowled at Lin Tian and excitedly headed off first.

“Was I that kind of person…”

Lin Tian murmured, stepping forward to follow.

However.

Back then, he had pinched the class belle’s cheeks, climbed into girls’ restrooms…

and boys’ restrooms too, accidentally saw the volunteer teacher relieving herself in the open, and tipped over the clothes pole of the widow next door into the ditch…

None of these should count as being a rascal, right?

Inwardly, Lin Tian reviewed the memories left by his predecessor, silently adding a few comments.

Lin Tian followed Xu Tangge’s steps, looking around at everything familiar yet strange, and deeply took a breath.

The fresh air of nature seemed to envelop him entirely.

Xu Tangge, like a girl entering a new and wondrous world, continuously let out exclamations and laughter.

The hot July sun, filtered through lush trees, cast numerous dappled spots of light.

The cool summer breeze occasionally swept away the surrounding heat, rustling away and carrying it off to the distant hills.

Xu Tangge, joyfully walking ahead, couldn’t help but hum the tune of Zhao Lei’s “Youthful Golden Time”—

…Children sing in front of the door

The sun warms the creek

Catkins ride the strong wind

Beneath the tree shadows, the person yearned for sleep,

The silent began to find happiness from that moment,

…my melancholic white shirt,

The first cigarette in the pocket of my youth.

I, who was just beginning to experience love, never dared to tell you,

With only a bus to the city,

There were no cafes or luxury shops yet,

Under a clear blue sky, faces lifted with smiles,

Love was simple.

Bells marked the sunset,

The asphalt road leaped over hills,

Leading northward,

A place we imagined growing up but never passed by…

…

Listening to the faintly sorrowful song, Lin Tian finally caught sight of the village beneath Phoenix Mountain, with smoke curling up into the midair.

At the entrance to the village, a shattered little temple fiercely pulled memories from Lin Tian.

This temple was all too familiar; as a child going to elementary school, he passed by it every day, back and forth from the central school in town.

Many times when it rained midway, a group of buddies would take shelter inside, some even kneeling down to pray for the temple gods to stop the rain.

A few times it actually worked, sending the group of kids rushing off excitedly like young calves.

Passing the small temple in the village and going no more than two or three hundred meters, Lin Tian stopped with Xu Tangge not far off.

There they could see an old tile-roofed house situated on the westernmost side of the village—it was home!

Looking around at everything, both familiar and strange, Lin Tian felt an inexplicable tension.

He was not a person from this world; this was not his real home.

But at that moment, he felt as if everything from his previous life was so distant, and everything before him was real—this was home, and his biological parents were right there!

Complex and bewildered emotions made Lin Tian nervously tighten his grip on Xu Tangge’s small hand.

“What’s wrong, you’re home and you don’t dare to go in?

How can you be more nervous than I am?”

Xu Tangge was taken aback by Lin Tian’s demeanor and then said, “By the way, will your parents dislike me when they see me?

I’m afraid I won’t do well!”

Hearing this, Lin Tian came back to his senses and smiled, “No, they’ll be thrilled to have you home!”

Home, yes, this was home!

Heaving a silent sigh, Lin Tian led Xu Tangge forward.

But before they reached the front door of the home, a noisy argument traveled from the entrance.

Following that, three youths, wearing vests, shorts, and flip-flops, with sullen faces, walked out of the house.

“Humph, you’ve got a maximum of seven days!

If that shop isn’t turned over by a week, we’ll just tear your house down!

Damn it, there’s no land Brother Long wants in Phoenix Town that he can’t get!”

The leader of the youths took a harsh drag on his cigarette and shouted angrily at the inside of the home.

“Lawless, aren’t you?

If you dare, I will fight you with all I’ve got!”

As the young man finished speaking, a middle-aged woman with her long hair tied atop her head and hands on her hips walked out and rebuked the three youths.

“Just you try to fight us?

Or is it that paralyzed waste on your bed?”

The young man glared and sneered.

At his words, the middle-aged woman’s eyes reddened, and her hands clenched tightly.

“Enough, Dabao!

Are you really going to start trouble in our village?”

At this moment, an old man in his fifties or sixties, followed by several youths in muddy clothes, came forth and barked at the trio.

Seeing this old man, Lin Tian recognized him; it was Wang Daku, the village head of Youlan Village.

He was typically quite caring towards the villagers, which is why he had been the village head for over a decade.

Then, Lin Tian’s gaze turned to the middle-aged woman.

Seeing the streaks of gray in her hair, his heart contracted sharply, and he felt an inexplicable pain.

Mother, Xiao Lin!

From the woman’s still graceful brows, Lin Tian felt he saw his own reflection, and sensed the thick blood ties of kinship.

“Mom…”

Lin Tian’s lips trembled slightly as he spoke softly.

Watching his mother’s slender figure and weathered face filled with anger and helplessness, he set down his luggage, nodded to Xu Tangge, picked up a thick wooden stick from the side, and stepped toward Dabao and the other two men.
