Chapter 508 Survival.

Quiet, quiet like dead silence.

Xu Ziling and Luluo Girl stood at the door of the house for ten minutes; no movement was heard, and it was around 6:00 in the afternoon; it was logically the time to cook, and his grandfather liked to wait for news from Hong Kong at this time 6:30; Xu Ziling couldn't help but recall his childhood memories, which was the lively night on New Year's Eve; his hometown was full of people of all sizes, and even if the Xu Ziling family could not be said to be a luxury villa in the local area, it was at least a big house; because Xu Ziling was an engineer when he was young, it was not easy to become an engineer in their era; and at that time, the Xu Ziling family also accumulated a lot of wealth at that time, which is also an important reason why Xu Ziling's parents could gain a foothold in first-tier cities like Long City.

Xu Ziling remembers it very clearly that there were twenty-nine people in the family; Xu Ziling, who had just been in school, was still called to count the number of people under the temptation of the red envelopes of the elders. If the number is correct, there will be big red envelopes.

Why are there no movement at all? They won’t go on a trip, right? The Green Ivy girl, who didn’t know the truth, asked curiously. She was also very curious about why Xu Ziling not only did not enter the house but was still dazed at the door.

Go in and take a look. Maybe... you can find photos of your grandparents. Xu Ziling doesn't have too many sad expressions, and he doesn't have much deeper feelings for his parents; let alone grandparents who are more distant from blood.

Xu Ziling pushed the door open, and the old iron gate made a creaking sound.

Who? An old, haggard but familiar and kind voice came from home.

Hum? Grandma's voice? Xu Ziling was stunned. He wouldn't be so lucky, right? The Guibu didn't attack my grandparents?

Even if your grandma's voice is not necessary to show such a surprised expression, right? Isn't it normal for your grandma to be in your hometown? The Green Ivy Girl, who doesn't know anything, gave Xu Ziling a blank look.

Grandma, it’s me; Ziling! Xu Ziling closed the door and responded loudly.

After pushing open the large gate outside, Xu Ziling knocked on the door in the courtyard again.

Ziling? When grandma heard that it was grandson who came back, she took extremely fast steps to open the door for Xu Ziling. Don’t ask how Xu Ziling knew. Grandma ran over with slippers and opened the door for Xu Ziling. The frequency of the slippers being stepped on the floor was suddenly heard.

Where are your parents? Where is Shuni? Why didn’t they come back? Grandma took out a can of Coke for Xu Ziling from the refrigerator and asked.

They... have something to do, and they are very busy at work recently. Xu Ziling held the Coke in both hands and lied.

Even if I’m busy with work, I’ll answer the phone! I’ve been looking for you for more than half a year, and you haven’t answered my phone. Grandma looked at Xu Ziling resentfully and complained.

I forgot to tell you this; my phone number has changed, but the previous phone number cannot be reached. Xu Ziling skillfully made the lie.

I said why can't I get through! Then you should have told me your phone number long ago. Do you all know the phone number in your hometown? Grandma continues to complain.

Isn’t this too busy? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been in the New Year and would not have come back. Xu Ziling glanced at the Green Ivy girl who was wandering around the house without any trace, and then lied.

Then tell me the phone number now, I'll remember it easily. Grandma staggered and took out a pen and an old phone book from the bamboo basket under the table.

I don’t know the number. I always live in the school dormitory when I go to college. I rarely go home and now I chat with my parents on WeChat. Xu Ziling shook his phone, and he knew that grandparents didn’t use smartphones. This is the key to making the lie come true.

Let’s do this. After I go back, I will ask my parents to call here and tell you the number.

That's fine, right; Ziling, I have something to tell you. Grandma looked at Xu Ziling and said solemnly.

Huh, I've been hiding! Xu Ziling felt relieved, but the next second Xu Ziling heard another bad news.

Ziling, your grandfather is dead.
