Lin Jinyang

FATHER!!! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE

Jinyang broke down completely losing his only relative infront of his eyes broke him

at the funeral place

people were coming and going giving Jinyang condolences

A man in a suit stepped inside, guilt clinging to him like a second skin—his eyes hollow, and heart already shattered.

？？？

Are you Yuxi's son?

Lin Jinyang

*looks up*

Lin Jinyang

Yes..and who you might be?

？？？

I am your 2nd uncle, Lin Zhenyu

Lin Zhenyu

*sits beside Jinyang*

Lin Jinyang

Lin Zhenyu

Lin Jinyang

Father, told me he had two brothers that's all

Lin Zhenyu

I was his step brother...we never got along *looks at the ceiling*

Lin Zhenyu

But I never despised him *looks at Jinyang*

Lin Zhenyu

Ah-yang, if you want you can stay with me *smiles*

Lin Zhenyu

I never took the responsibility as a brother but I don't wanna back down from being a uncle now

Lin Jinyang

Uncle Zhenyu...I-

Lin Zhenyu

You don't have to answer now *pats Jinyang's head*

As Zhenyu gets up to leave he turns towards Jinyang

Lin Zhenyu

Forgive your uncle for not being a good brother to your father

as he said this a drop of tears fell from his eyes...he turned and left in hurry

Lin Jinyang

Father....you were never a bad brother

Lin Jinyang

Look uncle Zhenyu came to see you todat *smiles sadly*

.....

Lin Jinyang

Father, this was your fav. spot we always used to come together

Lin Jinyang

*looks at the river*

Lin Jinyang

*sigh*

Lin Jinyang

I have to decline Uncle Zhenyu, I don't want to be a burden

as he stands upto leave he slips and falls into the river

Lin Jinyang

Shit!!! someone save me, I don't even know how to swim

as he starts to sink deeper

Lin Jinyang

Lin Zhaowen

Lin Jinyuan

Lin Zhaowen

Qin Meifen

Qin Meifen

Lin Yuxi

*froze*

Lin Zhaowen

Yuxi, is your mother saying the truth?

Lin Yuxi

Y-yes Dad

Lin Zhaowen

Get me the report

Lin Jinyuan

[what the fuck..going on here why so tense? did my father leave in a royal palace or what?]

As Yuxi brought the report Zhaowen eyes blackened due to anger

Lin Zhaowen

WHAT IS THIS? *slams the table*

Lin Jinyuan

*startled*

Lin Yuxi

Lin Zhaowen

Lin Yuxi are you proud of this scores? *cold*

Lin Yuxi

*doesn't look up, hands trembling*

Lin Jinyuan

*notices*

Lin Zhaowen

What are you doing instead of studying? Daydreaming? You want to be a failure?

Lin Yuxi

Lin Zhaowen

Why can't you be more like your brothers? Jinyuan has always been topper and your step brother Zhenyu topped his class this time

Lin Zhenyu

*smirks*

Qin Meifen

Honey...it's okay

Lin Zhaowen

Yuxi, trying isn't enough. You are embarrassing this family. Even your brother who is the same as you, Zhenyu would never-

Lin Jinyuan

Enough

everyone turns towards Jinyuan

Lin Zhaowen

*narrows his eyes*

Lin Jinyuan

*lips twitches*

Lin Zhaowen

*leaves the diner*

Qin Meifen

Honey, don't be angry *goes after Zhaowen*
