Steward Mu nodded, turned around and opened the door of the ward for Lin Nuan. He walked in first and said to Liang Mulan, "Auntie, Miss and your son-in-law are here."

The first time Lin Nuan heard the title of son-in-law, she was a little uncomfortable. She looked at Liang Mulan in a panic, but did not explain.

Lying on the bed, Liang Mulan was calling her husband, who had just landed on the plane. When she heard their words, she hurriedly said, "It's okay, I'm okay." You don't need to fly back. Nuan Nuan is coming, I'll hang up first......"

Seeing that Liang Mulan didn't look as ugly as she imagined, Lin Nuan breathed a deep sigh of relief. Her heart finally returned to her chest, but her eyes became moist and her throat felt suffocated.

"Why are you here?" Liang Mulan didn't want Lin Nuan to worry, so she made a little grimace at her. However, she accidentally tugged on the wound on her face, causing it to sting a little.

Lin Nuan put down the bag and turned to look at Fu Huai'an. "Thank you for sending me here..."

Lin Nuan's order to let him leave was indeed quite ruthless. Fu Huai'an sent her here, and she couldn't even wait for him to take a sip of water, she wanted to get rid of him.

Seeing Fu Huai'an's deep and mysterious eyes glaring at her, she herself felt cowardly. Her ears turned red and betrayed her again.

Fu Huai'an walked past Lin Nuan, said a few words to Liang Mulan, and left the ward accompanied by Steward Mu.

Only Lin Nuan and Liang Mulan were left in the ward.

Lin Nuan took the thermos flask brought by Steward Mu. "I'll get you some warm water."

Liang Mulan didn't say anything. She knew that Lin Nuan felt terrible in her heart......

Inside the water room.

Lin Nuan put the bottle under the tap of the water tank and began to collect the water. Her nose began to sniff.

She originally planned to keep a distance from the Lin family and try to get involved as little as possible, but the moment she received the call that Liang Mulan had an accident, she panicked, and she longed to have wings to fly to her side and see her.

Before she found out that she was not Liang Mulan's blood daughter, she had already regarded Liang Mulan as her biological mother. Despite not having the same bloodline, their true bond has never changed.

At that moment, Lin Nuan couldn't lie anymore. She can't say that after getting married, she will have nothing to do with them if she is removed from the Lin family's book.

As long as Liang Mulan is still in the Lin family, as long as her husband is still in the Lin family, as long as Lin's grandparents and Lin Chen are still in the Lin family, Lin Nuan will have countless involvements with the Lin family.

Hot water poured out of the kettle. Lin Nuan immediately turned it off. When she held the bottle, her movements were too hasty, and the spilling hot water scalded her arm. She immediately withdrew her arm and rinsed it with cool water.

Luckily, the situation wasn't too serious and the burning sensation was relieved. Lin Nuan shook off the water in his hand and returned to the ward with the bottle.

Lin Chen's tall figure was standing in the middle of the corridor, with his back to Lin Nuan's direction.

He wears a light blue wide-collared shirt with a navy tie. His big sleek hands held a gray plaid slim-fitting suit, his broad shoulders blocked the glare of the corridor, and his shadow shrouded Lin Ran in it.

The tall Lin Chen stood there without saying a word. Even so, he still had an extra intimidation, not to mention the anger in his handsome eyes. His graceful demeanor was replaced by his steady, decisive presence, a demeanor that was cultivated through killing and harvesting in the business world. Lin Ran couldn't help but look away, a little scared in his heart.

However, when Lin Ran saw Lin Nuan walking towards them with a thermos flask, she held her slender white little hand tightly and looked straight at Lin Chen, "Then what if I'm a bastard?" When you guys forced out the bastards! I knocked my mother down, but she should mind her own business! I have been raised by Lin Nuan's depraved father for so many years, but none of you have shown me the family affection I deserve. Then how can you play the family card now to criticize me and restrict me from doing whatever I want?! If you're really that good... Then why don't you cut ties with me and let Lin Nuan be your sister?! Let Lin Nuan be your mother's baby daughter, I might as well die outside!

The veins in Lin Chen's forehead kept popping out. He raised his hand and slapped her in the face.

Lin Ran let out a short scream and covered his face. Her gaze crossed Lin Chen and fell on Lin Nuan, full of resentment. Her entire face was covered with tears.

Lin Nuan clasped his hands together and held the bottle.

"Lin Nuan's father may be more like an illegitimate child, but he is the one who rescued you from the hospital and raised you. In such a harsh environment, he never compromises your clothes and food and sends you to the best school! If it weren't for Lin Nuan's father, you would have died a long time ago! Mom gave you your first life, and Lin Nuan's father gave you a second life! So in this world... Mother can resent Lin Nuan's father, and father can resent Lin Nuan's father, but only you don't have that right!

The fine lines around Lin Chen's eyes were deeply carved. His gaze was calm.

"It's just that in your heart, you never really recognized me as your sister?" For the first time, Lin Ran mustered up the courage to look directly into his deep and incomprehensible eyes, "You wish I could die twenty years ago!" This way... No one can disturb the loving and harmonious life between you and Lin Nuan!

Lin Nuan stood at a considerable distance. Holding the bottle, she wasn't sure if she should approach them. All she could feel was the growing pain in her burned hand.

"You and your mother both said that Lin Nuan was innocent, but what about me? I'm sorry for not growing up to be the elegant lady that grandmothers and grandfathers want to see! Because I have never received the kind of education that Lin Nuan has received since I was a child, it is impossible for me to compare with her!

Chapter 78: Then try your best to pursue it

Lin Ran revealed the saddest part of her heart. Her nose twitched, and tears fell like streams.

"I'm an unhappy sister, an unhappy daughter - all I can do is be reckless, this is caused by Lin Nuan's father doting on me too much! You think my shortcomings are not something I can choose from. I'm sorry if I have to be extra careful in front of my blood parents...... But I can't. In my heart, you all owe me! Especially Lin Nuan! It was she who stole everything that belonged to me and became what I was supposed to be! She stole my life!

Lin Ran almost screamed in despair.

Relatives of patients in other wards opened the door and were about to come out and shout at someone. But as soon as they saw the scary Lin Chen, they chose to stand at the door and watch this scene, not daring to come forward.

The nurses at the nurses' station were about to stop Lin Ran from making such a big noise in the corridor. But as soon as they saw Lin Chen's angry face, they chose to watch silently.

"Didn't grandmother say that I wasn't as serene as other girls, that I was as strong as a wild horse? I'll tell you where this came from! Because I was bullied since I was a child, chased with stones by children my age...... They hit me on the head until the wound bleeds, saying I have a crazy mother and I'm a mini maniac! If I hadn't had a tough character, I would have only been abused by more people! You never understood what I was going through as a child, so what right do you have to criticize me?

"I went to Gu's house to find Gu Shaoting and let him know that I have feelings for him, what's wrong? I should be the one who is engaged to Gu Shaoting! Why did your mother say I had no love for myself? As a child, my experience taught me that I should do my best to pursue what I wanted. Even if I didn't get it, at least I gave everything I had! What kind of lady etiquette is this... What kind of girly courtesy is this? For me, it's far less important than my happiness! What's wrong with me going all out to pursue someone I like? If you high society ladies should watch happiness slip away before their eyes, then all I can say is: I'm sorry, I'm not going to be the lady you all expect to see in my life! Let Lin Nuan be the official mother of the Lin family! From now on, I have nothing to do with the Lin family!

Lin Ran's chest rose and fell. These words had been suppressed in her heart for too long.

Even a minute ago, she wouldn't have thought that she would say this to Lin Chen.

Lin Ran's words made Lin Chen slightly startled.

If you like something, should you give everything you have to get it? True?

Seeing Lin Ran staring at him, Lin Nuan didn't say anything. She placed the thermos flask on the seat in the hallway, then turned and quietly left.

...

Lin Nuan stood on the edge of the stairs at the entrance of the hospital. She lowered her head, staring at her half-wet black pants and a pair of white sneakers that had just been stained with mud. She felt empty inside.

That's when she hurried away. She trotted back to the hospital gate in the rain and suddenly remembered that her wallet was still in Liang Mulan's hospital room, with a mobile phone and wallet in it. She hesitated to go back and get it.

The downpour became lighter and lighter, and it was not until the sky began to drizzle. It was only half-past four, and the sky began to get dark and heavy.

The soft orange headlights emitted from the entrance of the hospital turned into a circle of blurry sparks in the rain, enveloping Lin Nuan like a layer of haze.

On wide roads, cars pass here and there, their lights intersecting with the colors of the rainbow. Lin Nuan sniffed her slightly reddened nose.
