Farming Space Makes Me Rich Novel - Chapter 687
Chapter 687: Father-son Dialogue
The villagers knew that Gong Tianhao had already woken up. It was just that the car accident two and a half years ago had injured his brain. Furthermore, his injuries were serious. He had been in a coma for two years before waking up. However, after waking up, he had forgotten about Xiao Lingyu and her son.
Most of the villagers did not understand. How could a car accident cause people to lose their memories?
Regardless, they couldn’t help much. All they could do was pray that Gong Tianhao could remember the mother and son as soon as possible. It would be a sin for such a good couple to break over this.
Situ Xing knew that the villagers cared about Gong Tianhao. He smiled and said, “Boss is back. However, he saw the beautiful peach blossoms and went to admire the scenery!”
No one knew why Situ Xing kept calling Gong Tianhao boss. No one asked. After all, it was his own business.
“Haha, I didn’t expect Young Master Gong to like peach blossoms,” the village chief laughed.
“Yes, boss likes all kinds of flowers!” Situ Xing lied. His Boss definitely didn’t like peach blossoms. He couldn’t even explain this behavior. However, it was fun to smear his boss’ reputation.
Situ Xing chatted and laughed with everyone in the courtyard. Many villagers heard that young master gong had returned. They decided to wait for Gong Tianhao at the Xiao family home.
..,
“Uncle, my name is Xiao Letong. I’m from Taoyuan Village at the foot of the mountain!” Xiao Letong raised his small face and said with a smile, “It’s just that there are too many people here now. I’m afraid that if I go back alone, I’ll be targeted by bad people. Uncle, can I trouble you to send me back?”
…
Gong Tianhao looked at his fair, tender, and chubby little face. Then, out of the blue, he agreed, “Sure!”
As Gong Tianhao held the soft hand, for some reason, he suddenly felt excited. The blood in his body started to boil. He was eager as if he had wanted to hold this boy’s hand.
Gong Tianhao held the soft hand tightly, revealing his nervousness and excitement.
Gong Tianhao lowered his head and looked at the child. Then, he became confused. ‘Is this child also from Taoyuan Village? Does this mean his mother is from there too? But that shouldn’t be the case.’
Gong Tianhao frowned slightly and asked, “Little friend, is your family also from Taoyuan Village?”
…
“Also?” Tong Tong raised his chubby little face and blinked his big round eyes. He asked curiously, “Uncle, are you from Taoyuan Village too?”
Gong Tianhao, “…” this child is so smart. A normal child wouldn’t get so much information from just the word, also.
Gong Tianhao looked at his cute little face and nodded, “Yes, my family is from Taoyuan Village too.”
“Is that so?” Tong Tong’s eyes lit up, but then his expression revealed some confusion, “But uncle, I grew up in Taoyuan Village. I know this place like the back of my hand. I know everyone there. Why haven’t I seen you before?”
Gong Tianhao was even more puzzled. ‘The boy grew up in Taoyuan Village. Could he really be Xiao Lingyu’s son? But why didn’t their ages match then?’
Gong Tianhao looked at Xiao Letong’s little face and asked, “Little friend, how old are you this year?” He had been guessing when he could have directly asked the child.
Xiao Letong did not answer. Instead, he asked with a smile, “Uncle, guess how old I am?”
“…” Gong Tianhao guessed, “Four or five years old?”
“Haha, Uncle, I knew you would guess wrong!” Xiao Letong laughed, “Everyone guesses that I’m four or five. Uncle is no different too!”
Gong Tianhao frowned and asked, “Aren’t you four or five years old?”
Xiao Letong shook his head and said, “No, uncle. I might be tall, but I’m actually not even three years old. I’m still two months away from three years old! Because I grew up well and quickly, I look older than my peers.”
Not even three years old?
Gong Tianhao looked at the tall and strong little boy and fell silent!
He had been wondering if another woman had secretly given birth to his child. He did not expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.
This child was his legitimate child.
When he saw this child in the Peach Blossom Forest, he could not help but approach him.
When he held his little hand, his blood surged with excitement. His heart pounded with excitement. He had never had such an emotion. In the past, no matter how big the matter was, he could hide his emotions. He was steady and calm. It had always been his rule and attitude in handling things.
Many people in the outside world said that he had almost no emotion because he was cold. But at this moment, he did not know how to describe his emotion.
He stopped and squatted down. His sharp eyes stared at Xiao Letong’s face. On his cold face, there was a hint of nervousness. He reached out and touched Xiao Letong’s face.
At this moment, Xiao Letong asked curiously, “Uncle, what’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Gong Tianhao touched his little face, and a smile appeared on his cold face. However, he appeared nervous. For the first time, he stammered, “I… I, you… you…”
Xiao Letong’s brows furrowed tightly. His small face revealed a puzzled look. He asked again, “Uncle, what’s wrong with you? Is it a stomachache? Why don’t we go back quickly? I have a natural painkiller at home. Take it, and it will immediately stop the pain!”
For some reason, the corners of Gong Tianhao’s eyes turned red. He shook his head and said, “It’s not a stomachache. It’s me… I…” He had never felt so flustered before. The sentence was in his mouth, but he couldn’t say it.
Xiao Letong was an old demon that had lived for thousands of years. Of course, he could see what Gong Tianhao wanted to say. The man was so excited about seeing his son that he couldn’t speak.
However, Xiao Letong didn’t want him to say that sentence so quickly. Otherwise, he wouldn’t get to have fun anymore.
Gong Tianhao’s memory loss was only temporary. When he regained his memory, he would also know that Xiao Letong was actually a reincarnated person.
When that time came… Would their relationship continue to be harmonious?
Xiao Letong said naively, “Uncle, since you don’t have a stomachache, can you please send me home as soon as possible? I have been out for too long. My family will be worried.”
His words could only fool the amnesiac Gong Tianhao.
Gong Tianhao sighed softly and stood up. He rubbed his little head and said with a smile, “Alright, I’ll send you home now!”
Then, his big hand held his little hand tightly.
Xiao Letong frowned and was unable to endure it any longer. He carefully reminded, “Uncle, you’re holding too tightly. My… My hand hurts!”
Gong Tianhao was stunned. Then, he lowered his head and saw that there were red marks on the back of the child’s hand.
He immediately apologized, “I’m sorry. Come, let me give you a massage!”
Xiao Letong immediately smiled and nodded, “Thank you, uncle!”
But for some reason, Xiao Letong felt very safe when the man held him with his big hands.
Safe? Xiao Letong was stunned. He was a cultivator who had lived for thousands of years. Why would he feel safe from a mortal? He hadn’t experienced this feeling before.
Why?
Was it because he was now a child? It was why he was affected by mortal feelings.
However…
Xiao Letong lowered his head and saw the big hands massaging his small hands. He truly felt a sense of security.
This feeling was very strange, but it really made him feel at ease.
Gong Tianhao looked at the silent Xiao Letong and asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Xiao Letong’s eyes turned red as he said, “I’m thinking of my father!”
Gong Tianhao frowned and asked curiously, “Your father?”
If his guess was right, wasn’t his father him?
“Yes!” Xiao Letong said with a choked voice, “I haven’t seen my father since I was born. I have always dreamed that one day, my father would hold my hand and lead me home. How wonderful that would be!”
Gong Tianhao’s footsteps suddenly stopped. He looked at the sad expression on Xiao Letong’s face and asked with difficulty, “Then… what happened to your father?”
Xiao Letong said, “My mommy said that my father went to a very far place.”
“Went to a very far place?” Gong Tianhao frowned and repeated, “Is he dead?” As soon as he said this, he realized how inappropriate that was. He immediately explained, “No, Tong Tong, I didn’t mean to…”
Xiao Letong wanted to laugh out loud in his heart. This was the first time he realized that his biological father was so cute. But now, he still had to hold back his laughter.
Then, he waved his small hand to stop Gong Tianhao from explaining. Instead, he wanted to pat his shoulder like a little adult, but he couldn’t reach it. He could only pat Gong Tianhao’s butt. He said with a smile, “Uncle, you’ve misunderstood. My father really went to a very far place. He’s not dead. My mommy said that my father was sick and needed to go to a very, very far place for treatment. When he is cured, he will come back to look for us.”
He paused for a moment. His small eyes were filled with hope as he looked at Gong Tianhao. He asked naively and cutely, “Uncle, are you my father?”
Gong Tianhao’s heart skipped a beat. He suppressed his excitement and asked softly, “Tong Tong, why do you think I’m your father?”
Xiao Letong said seriously, “Uncle, it’s because we look alike. My Great-grandfather told me that I look very much like my father! Look, uncle, you look so much like me. The possibility of you being my father is very high!”
The father, “…”
“Uncle, don’t you agree?” Xiao Letong shook Gong Tianhao’s arm and asked naively again.
“…” Gong Tianhao smiled and said, “Everything Tong Tong says is right!”
Before he saw his son, he had been conflicted. However, after seeing his son, he subconsciously liked him and did not reject his son at all.
Xiao Letong immediately grinned and said, “Alright, Uncle, let’s hurry home. Mommy and Grandma have not seen me for so long. They must be worried.”
Only then did Gong Tianhao react. He said subconsciously, “Tong Tong, why did you go to the Peach Blossom Forest alone? There are so many people there. If something happens, won’t your mommy and the others be worried?”
Xiao Letong, “…” he’s not even my father, and he’s already lecturing me?
Xiao Letong secretly touched his face. He was going to lead his father home. He’d bear with it. Other fathers doted on their sons, but this son was going to dote on his father for once.
Xiao Letong said in a good-natured manner, “Uncle, you’re right. I definitely won’t go to the Peach Blossom Forest alone next time.”
Gong Tianhao, “…”
His voice suddenly stopped!
How could he continue to lecture his obedient son?
