No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't defeat Lin Nuan, and Lin Nuan didn't want to fight for anything. So why is she being harsh on everyone and herself?

On the day Lin Nuan came to Lin's house, he also said such things to Lin Nuan in the kitchen. This is her and the Lin family's last chance. However, Liang Mulan and Lin Jingquan's attitude throughout the morning made Lin Ran painfully understand that although she could erase Lin Nuan's figure from the Lin family's home, she could never expect to erase Lin Nuan from their hearts.

She could never be Lin Ran; She has always been, and always will be, Lu Ran!

Lu Ran, who has no home to return to...

As this understanding deepened, Lin Ran felt as if her heart had been pierced by ice, directly penetrating her. A biting chill flowed through her blood to the rest of her body.

She smiled, motioned for the maids to clean up the dishes in front of her, and said, "I'm done." Dad, Mom, Big Brother, if you finish eating too, I have something to announce.

Lin Jingquan and Liang Mulan have long lost their appetite. Hearing Lin Ran's words, they put down their chopsticks and looked at her.

"I applied for a postgraduate course at the University of Sheffield and my written application has been approved. I'm going to go for an interview next, if I can pass...... I will be able to complete my postgraduate studies at the University of Sheffield. The interview will take place next Monday. I've booked my plane ticket and I'm going to leave this afternoon. If I pass my exams, I will stay in the UK to familiarise myself with the environment before the start of school......"

This means that she does not intend to return.

This is also the reason why Lin Ran said that he didn't care if Lin Nuan attended Mrs. Lin's birthday banquet. Because she didn't plan to participate on her own ...

That wasn't in her original plans, though.

She had planned to tell them that she was going to spend a few days in the UK. It wasn't until she passed the interview that she planned to tell her family the good news. If she didn't pass, well, they didn't need to know about it.

But now, Lin Ran has no backup plan. She must pass an interview.

Lin Ran's reason was legitimate, so no one in the family could stop her from leaving. They could only watch as Lin Ran left with his luggage.

The pain of Lin Nuan's departure year, Liang Mulan experienced it again today. She cried at home.

Lin Chen's original intention when he mentioned this matter to Lin Nuan was to let her go home to comfort Liang Mulan.

Lin Nuan was silent for a while before speaking. "Brother, if my mother is free these days, she can go to the UK to accompany Lin Ran. This is an important moment, Lin Ran needs the company of her most important relatives, especially when she is going to a foreign country alone.

Lin Chen's gaze turned to Lin Nuan. The phone on the desk vibrates. He hung up, turned it off, and lit a cigarette.

He understood what Lin Nuan meant and nodded. "I'll go back and talk to my mom."

Regarding Lin Ran's decision to leave, Lin Chen had already reflected on it.

He recalled the conversation he had with Lin Ran when he sent Lin Ran to the airport.

She said: "Big brother, I actually know that I shouldn't hate Lin Nuan. I remember on our birthday last year, when we had dinner with my grandparents, my grandmother suggested that Lin Nuan's birthday and I be celebrated together, because she hadn't seen her for a long time. Later, I learned that my mother went to find Lin Nuan, but she refused. She said what would my position be like if they celebrated our birthday together at the Lin family! I know she's understanding of me, but it makes me hate her even more! Because she's right in the minds of everyone around me......"

Lin Chen remembered that when his grandmother made this suggestion, he completely agreed!

If Lin Chen could be a little more rational and say a few more words for Lin Ran, maybe she wouldn't have been so wronged by the Lin family for so many years. Maybe she wouldn't be so hostile to Lin Nuan that she couldn't tolerate Lin Nuan at all......

"Brother..."Lin Nuan's eyes began to cry. She found it difficult to say what she had to say. "Later, tell... Your parents don't want to mention me in front of Lin Ran again.

Lin Nuan's use of the word "your parents" made Lin Chen extremely uncomfortable. His brow furrowed, which made his eyes appear deeper.

Lin Nuan stiffened his posture, not daring to look at Lin Chen's eyes, just staring at the cup of hot water, from which the steam slowly rose. She spoke again. "Lin Ran is their biological daughter, not me. She has always been a person who is not afraid of love or hate, is straightforward and straightforward, and does not play tricks behind people's backs. This kind of people... They may speak strongly, but in reality they are gentle and fragile at heart. She's actually not as tough as you see outside. She... It's even more disadvantageous than someone like me who likes to pack everything inside!

Recalling what Lin Ran said to her in the kitchen of the Lin family, Lin Nuan held the teacup tightly and smiled at Lin Chen while enduring the stomach pain. "Maybe you'll think I'm innocent. Lin Ran is by your side, and I am not, so you care more about me. But for Lin Ran, this is tantamount to an emotional torture!

"I'm sorry, all this is caused by my biological father......" Lin Nuan's lips curled and her nose opened slightly. She could barely hold back the tears in her eyes, and her throat ached from the choking sensation. Even if he helped raise Lin Ran, he couldn't deny that he helped his daughter snatch Lin Ran's life away from her! In fact, my biological father should apologize to everyone in the Lin family. It was his every move that made everyone fall into such an embarrassing and painful situation. In this story... I'm the most innocent party, that's right, but the most pitiful is Lin Ran, and then the others!

"I've returned Lin Ran's identity, but it should be her family affection, I'm still occupying it!" Lin Nuan smiled faintly with some difficulty.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window behind Lin Nuan, the heavy rain has not stopped.

Raindrops streak across the glass windows, reflecting the lonely chandelier in the private dining room. The brilliant and soft light is a warm shade of orange, outlining Lin Nuan's thin shoulder frame.

Lin Nuan spoke fiercely, especially the use of the words "your parents".

But if Lin Nuan doesn't make a decision now, the Lin family may lose Lin Ran forever. Lin Ran is a girl who has fiery feelings for interpersonal relationships, and once someone makes up her mind, no one can dissuade her.

"Brother, we're not the same. I have a family now! I have Huai'an! And Tuan Tuan! I have a family, but Lin Ran doesn't. She's only you!

The cigarette on Lin Chen's fingertips continued to burn......

Lin Nuan is not wrong. Because Lin Ran was by their side, her parents subconsciously ignored her, subconsciously missed Lin Nuan, and cared about whether she ate well and dressed warmly like Lin Ran.

"In the future, if there is nothing important, I will not go to the Lin family. Since I'm already married to Huai'an, our residence has to be tied together, otherwise it will be really inconvenient......"

It's best to deal with painful things quickly; It's best to rip the band-aid right now. It was precisely because Lin Nuan couldn't sever her relationship with the Lin family that she kept dragging things out, which finally made Lin Ran so miserable. Looking at Lin Nuan from Lin Ran's point of view, she is indeed hateful.

As Lin Ran said, Lin Nuan is like a third party, although she knows in her heart that being an otaku is wrong, although she has promised her wife that she will stay away from her husband, she still continues to pester that married man!

It is undeniable that on this issue, Lin Nuan, who has the most power over the direction of the development of things, did not handle this matter well!

It's never too late to change things.

If Lin Nuan continues to be so indecisive and greedy for the family warmth that the Lin family gave her, maybe Liang Mulan and Lin Jingquan will lose their biological daughter again; This is what Lin Nuan doesn't want to see!

Because, in Lin Nuan's heart, Liang Mulan and Lin Jingquan are her parents. She didn't want to see them upset.

The cigarette between Lin Chen's fingertips burned out, although he didn't smoke much. He poured the ash into the ashtray, and by this time the waiter had already entered the room with the plate.

"Eat first!" Lin Chen said to Lin Nuan.

In the course of a day, two meals in a row, Lin Nuan found it difficult to tolerate any food.

Not wanting Lin Chen to notice anything unusual, Lin Nuan lowered his head, endured the slight pain in his stomach, and ate one bite at a time.

Her phone vibrated when she received Fu Huai'an's message.

"Fu Huai'an: Are you finished?"

Lin Nuan put down his chopsticks and replied to Fu Huai'an's message.

"Lin Nuan: I'm done. Just ran into my brother.

After eating with Lin Chen, Lin Nuan's stomach pain was relieved a lot, and he only felt a little swollen.

She called Uncle Hu and asked him to pick her up at Sunshine Plaza at the intersection of Renmin Road and Qujiang New Road in 20 minutes.

...

In CapitaLand's CEO's office, Fu Huai'an bites an unlit cigarette at the corner of his mouth. He tugged at his tie with his grip on his phone, letting it loosen a little. With his other hand, he opened the window a little and let the wind and rain mix into the room.

The transparent windows washed by the rain reflected Fu Huai'an's cold and tough facial features. His brow furrowed tightly, he lowered his gaze, tapped the lighter, and lit the cigarette with a violently trembling flame.

Old Madam Fu was still sitting on the sofa. Looking at Fu Huai'an's back, her gaze swept over the glass plate with the reflected flames, and she felt nervous.

She came here and was going to confess to Fu Huai'an what she had done about Lin Nuan......

Although Mrs. Fu is old, her mind is still sober. The driver was about to drive into the Fu Mansion, when Mrs. Fu told him to turn around and drive to Kaide Company.
