Chapter 129 Sister (1)
Chapter 129 Sister (1)
At noon, the scorching sun hung high in the blue sky, casting its scorching rays mercilessly, enveloping the beach in a rolling heat wave.
From a distance, the golden beach looks like it is covered with a layer of dazzling gold, sparkling with dazzling light.
The beach was deserted and so quiet that the only sounds were the rolling of waves and the occasional cry of seabirds.
The palm trees by the sea drooped helplessly, looking limp in the scorching heat. Under a large parasol held up by his subordinates, Lin Tao leisurely half-reclined on a lounge chair, enjoying a rare moment of leisure. Tian Tian, sitting beside him, was not so relaxed.
Her pretty face was full of anxiety, and her eyes looked towards the other end of the beach from time to time, hoping that figure would appear.
Finally, a yellow sports car stopped at the entrance to the beach. Lin Xueer, wrapped in a black dress, got out of the car lazily, put her hands on the sun and looked at the sun hanging high in the sky, with helplessness written all over her face.
She actually refused to be called out by Tian Tian in such weather, but Tian Tian's tone on the phone seemed particularly anxious, so she couldn't refuse and rushed over.
Tian Tian saw Lin Xueer from a distance, and her anxious face immediately changed into a relaxed smile, but her mood became even more nervous. Lin Xueer also saw them, and Tian Tian didn't care about that anymore. After a quick kick to Lin Tao, she rushed towards Lin Xueer.
Lin Tao sat up straight, took off his sunglasses, and looked in the direction of Lin Xueer.
The two girls have come together. Tian Tian took Lin Xueer's hand and came to where Lin Tao was sitting amid her constant complaints.
Lin Xueer nodded politely to Lin Tao and sat down on another chair. She was obviously not in a good mood.
Lin Tao and Tian Tian looked at each other, not knowing how to start today's topic. However, Lin Xueer spoke impatiently, breaking the awkward situation.
"Why don't you two stay at home in such hot weather? Instead, you come here to suffer. You don't come here to show your love, do you?" Lin Xueer said jokingly.
Tian Tian smiled bitterly and looked at Lin Tao again, as if asking who said that.
"Is there something wrong with you?" Lin Xueer noticed their strangeness and asked in confusion.
Lin Tao thought for a moment, then spoke directly without any hesitation, "Let me introduce myself!"
Lin Xueer looked at him strangely, "Don't we already know each other?"
Lin Tao coughed dryly and calmed himself down, "I mean, let me reintroduce myself."
Lin Xueer looked at Tian Tian in confusion, not understanding what they were doing. Tian Tian just smiled slightly, took her hand, and held it tightly in her own.
"Xue'er, listen to me. What we are going to say next may be beyond your understanding, or it may be difficult for you to accept, so..."
"You are Lin Tao, right?" Lin Xueer interrupted Tian Tian and looked directly at Lin Tao and said in a flat tone.
This sudden change made Lin Tao and Tian Tian look at each other in confusion, not understanding what Lin Xueer meant for a moment.
Lin Xueer smiled faintly, pulled her hand back from Tian Tian's hand, with a sly smile on her face.
"You...you know me?" Lin Tao asked tentatively.
"It seems that what Mom said is right." Lin Xue'er's tone was still as calm as ever. "I mentioned you to her before, and almost the moment I described your appearance, she guessed your identity."
Lin Tao looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant.
"I was still doubting it before, but now it seems that you are indeed my brother Lin Tao." Lin Xueer smiled. This smile was almost something Tian Tian had never seen before. It was a smile of certainty, but also a smile of relief.
"When I was very young, my mother told me that I had a brother, but I had never seen him. Today, it seems that you are the same as the brother I imagined. Fortunately, you did not let us down." Lin Xueer smiled with relief, but this smile looked so painful to Lin Tao.
He had been waiting for this moment for many years. He even dreamed about how to recognize his sister and imagined the scene of brother and sister meeting countless times, but he did not expect it to be so peaceful and simple.
"You, how did you know about my existence?" Lin Tao tried his best to control his tone, but it was obvious that there was a hint of sob in his voice.
"I've always known!" Lin Xue'er took a deep breath. "Not only did I know, I've also been secretly looking for you, but I just haven't found you yet."
"What's going on?" Tian Tian was even more confused. "Why have I never heard you mention this before?"
Lin Xueer smiled, pursed her lips, and a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but my mother told me not to tell anyone about my brother. I didn't mean to hide it from you."
Tian Tian shook her head. "I don't blame you. I know you did this to protect him. But I don't understand why you went to Iran and changed your date of birth."
Lin Xue'er lowered her head, as if she were lost in thought. At that moment, under the scorching sun, the entire world seemed silent, and her tears sparkled in the golden light of the beach.
"My mother has always told me that our family's affairs are very serious, so serious that no mistakes can be made, because this matter has implicated too many innocent people. In order to protect our loved ones from harm, we can only hide all this. And we have been waiting for my brother to come back. My mother said that my brother will definitely come back." Lin Xueer raised her head and looked at Lin Tao, "We have waited for this day for too long."
Lin Tao's brows were furrowed deeply. Tian Tian gently held Lin Xueer's hand, trying to comfort her, "Your brother is back."
Lin Xue'er nodded, tears welling up on her face as she looked at Lin Tao. "I was too young when you disappeared. I only knew you existed, but I'd never met you, so I don't have much affection for you. You're my brother, so..." Lin Xue'er paused and continued, "I'll get to know you, get to know you, and fall in love with you as soon as possible."
Lin Tao's tears finally flowed down. "I understand, I know. You were only three years old back then, you didn't know anything. You've endured too much over the years. I'm back, and I will make this all end as soon as possible. I will also find Dad and rescue him."
Lin Xue'er bit her lip tightly, trying hard to control her emotions. After a long while, she slowly opened her mouth and continued to ask, "Dad...what kind of person is Dad?"
Lin Tao looked up at the top of the parasol and let out a long sigh, "He is very powerful, a very remarkable person."
Lin Xueer nodded. "I guess so. Looking at the five major families today, you can tell that my father must have been a remarkable man." Lin Xueer picked up the water on the table and drank a large amount in one gulp. A thin trace of water flowed from the corner of her mouth. "I once asked my mother, but she would cry whenever she mentioned my father, so I didn't dare to ask anymore."
