Lin Zai has calmed down a lot. Her adoptive mother was right. No matter who she was, she could not let their death be in vain. She owed it to them.
Lin Ran hugged Lin Zai. She didn't want to say these words to irritate Zai. Seeing her sad, Lin Ran felt more distressed than anyone else, but in order to prevent her daughter from being impulsive, she could only be cruel.
"I'm sorry!" Lin Ran apologized again.
Lin Zai hugged Lin Ran tightly, "You don't have to say sorry, it was me who made you worry, stepmother, no, mother..."
Before she finished speaking, Lin Ran said excitedly: "What did you call me?"
"Mom, you are my mother too. I have always regarded you and my adoptive father as my parents, but after all, I am not your biological daughter. I am afraid that you won't like me calling you that, and I am also afraid of what I will do. I might make you angry, I’m sorry, my daughter shouldn’t think like this!”
"Silly boy, how could we have such an idea? No matter what you do, we won't really blame you, because you will always be our good daughter!"
"Mom, don't worry, my daughter will never be stupid again!" Lin Zai promised.
She knew that she was no longer qualified to do whatever she wanted.
"Be good, my daughter is so good!"
Lin Ran's tears fell unsatisfactorily. She was really, really happy that Ah Zai could call her mother. But it would be great if both Xiao Cheng and Sheng'er could be here!
"Mom, do you know what else Sheng'er and eldest brother talked about?"
Lin Ran shook his head, "Only Tian Xing and Sheng'er know the specific content. If it wasn't to keep an eye on you, Tian Xing wouldn't have told me!" Lin Ran thought of something and asked, "Don't tell Ao beforehand. , he still has a lot to deal with, we can’t distract him anymore!”
"good!"
"Tian Xing said he would tell you everything when he comes back. I know you are anxious, but you'd better be patient and wait a little longer!"
Lin Zai nodded.
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door and announced: "Madam, Mr.-in-law is here!"
"Let him in!"
"yes!"
Seeing that Ah Zai was a little confused, Lin Ran explained: "Tian Xing wants us to tell Rushuang Sheng'er about it first, so that Rushuang can be prepared in advance!"
"Um."
Lin Zai frowned. Brother Yue would definitely find it as hard to accept as he did after hearing this!
What should she tell Brother Yue?
~~~
As soon as Yue Rushuang returned to Li Mansion, the guard told him that his wife was waiting for him in Ah Zai's room.
Ah Zai should have almost woken up by this time, but why was Aunt Lin in her room?
Yue Rushuang hurried over without having time to think.
There are several guards guarding Ah Zai not far from the room. This should be Tianxing's arrangement. Not only is it to prevent others from approaching, but also if Ah Zai really goes out, these people can stop Ah Zai in time.
When the guards saw Yue Rushuang coming, they asked him to wait for a moment. They said they would let him pass after notifying his wife.
Yue Rushuang was even more confused. Something big must have happened, otherwise her aunt wouldn't be so cautious.
Soon the man came back and said he could go in. Yue Rushuang hurried over and knocked on the door, "Auntie, it's me!"
"come in!"
Yue Rushuang immediately closed the door tightly after entering the house. He took a look and found that Ah Zai was already awake.
"Brother Yue!" Lin Zai called softly.
"I'm sorry, it was Tianxing and I who took it upon ourselves to ask Sheng'er to give you the medicine, so as to prevent you from taking risks!"
It turned out to be the pill.
Sheng'er didn't mention this in the letter, maybe she had no time to explain it to herself in detail at that time.
"No need to apologize, I know you are doing it for my own good!"
It is best for her to understand nature. Yue Rushuang looked at Lin Ran and said in surprise: "Auntie, why are you here?"
"It was Tianxing who asked me to guard Ah Zai!"
"Tianxing is still thoughtful!" Yue Rushuang sighed.
"Yes!" Lin Ran was in a complicated mood. She didn't know how to tell Rushuang Sheng'er yet.
But she had to tell him sooner or later. Just when she was about to bring it up, Yue Rushuang asked Ah Zai, "Where is Sheng'er? Isn't she here?"
Lin Zai shook his head.
"Then where did she go? I thought she was afraid that you would do something stupid, so she would stay here to guard you!"
"Brother Yue!" Lin was struggling in her heart, but there were some things she had to say.
I wonder if Brother Yue can withstand this blow!
Yue Rushuang looked at Lin Ran and Lin Zai strangely. He suddenly had a bad feeling. Could something have happened to Sheng'er?
"This is what Sheng'er left for me. Brother Yue, please take a look first!"
Yue Rushuang hurriedly took it. His expression changed immediately after he took a look at it.
It took a lot of effort for him to insist on reading the letter, "What does this mean? Ah Zai, is Sheng'er kidding?"
"I couldn't believe it at first, but this is the truth. It was clearly stated in the letter!"
The piece of paper was obviously very light, but Yue Rushuang couldn't hold it tightly. Lin Zai carefully picked up the letter and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Yue!"
"You all know Sheng'er. She likes to joke the most. This must be to tease us. Sheng'er will definitely be fine, right? Please speak quickly!"
Yue Rushuang has gradually lost control.
"Sheng'er never jokes about important matters!" Lin Zai clenched her fists. She had exhausted all her strength to be able to talk to Brother Yue like this.
"I'm going to find Sheng'er, and I'm going to find her now!"
Lin Zai and Lin Ran stopped Yue Rushuang together. Yue Rushuang looked at them and begged: "I want to see her. I really want to see her. Please don't stop me anymore. I just want to confirm with my own eyes whether this is the truth. If It’s true, just let me see her one last time!”
"Tian Xing wants me to tell you something, and this is what Sheng'er wants to tell you," Lin Ran said in a deep voice.
"What?" Yue Rushuang asked immediately.
Lin Ran sighed, "Sheng'er said to Tianxing: Since you are both prosperous and devastated, then leave this matter to me. I am doing this not only for my sister, but also for my senior brother. He told my father I heard everything you said, so no one can know about my sister, otherwise senior brother’s secret may not be kept!”
Lin Ran was wondering what secrets Rushuang had, but she didn't ask. Since Sheng'er risked her life to keep it, she should respect Sheng'er's wishes, not to mention that Sheng'er also protected everyone.
Lin Zai was also surprised when she heard this. She never thought that Brother Yue would have any secrets. This must be a very important thing, otherwise Sheng'er would never say this!
She won't ask more, but she will definitely help Sheng'er protect the people she wants to protect, and she won't let anyone hurt Brother Yue until her death.
Yue Rushuang was on the verge of collapse. He only mentioned that matter to his master and Tianxing, but he didn't expect Sheng'er to know about it too.
It turns out that this is what she insisted on talking to Tian Xing alone!
Although Sheng'er is simple, she is actually very smart and knows what dangers he will face if this matter is revealed.
So she would rather die to save everyone?
She is so stupid!
Why is she so stupid!
Yue Rushuang fell to the ground, "It was me who harmed Sheng'er. It's all my fault. I've let her down once. In fact, I know how Sheng'er feels about me, but I pretend not to know anything and keep deceiving myself that Sheng'er is no longer there." She likes me, but I'm afraid to face the truth. I know that I will never marry her in this life, so when I heard that she was going to marry Liu Shaopu, although I felt a little disappointed, I was mostly relieved! I am a bastard, heinous It’s me who’s the sinner, and it’s me who has caused misery to Sheng’er!”
Lin Zai wiped away the tears on her face. She walked up to Yue Rushuang and said with all her strength: "If I really want to blame you, I can't blame you. It's me. If I hadn't thought too much, I wouldn't have hurt myself. What's more, It will not cause Brother Cheng to be targeted. This time I insist on going to Brother Cheng. If I can listen to Brother Cheng, Sheng'er will not replace me. Brother Yue, don't blame yourself. If you want to hate, then hate me. !”
Yue Rushuang looked at Lin Zai closely. He knew the pain in Ah Zai's heart. If he were Ah Zai, he would have made the same choice, so how could he bear to blame Ah Zai!
Besides, he was the one who met Sheng'er first. If Sheng'er had not met him, he would not have suffered this series of pain.
He didn't regret marrying Jie Yi, but he regretted leaving Sheng'er and the others without saying a word.
If he told them the reason, there wouldn't be so many misunderstandings. After he takes revenge, he can go home and see his wife, Sheng'er, and the three of them will live happily together forever!
But if that were the case, he wouldn't have met Jie Yi!
Yue Rushuang feels that he is a complete scumbag. No matter what choice he makes, he will have regrets. To put it bluntly, he wants both and wants everything!
It was precisely because he was too greedy that Sheng'er and Jieyi left him forever.
Lin Zai didn't know what Brother Yue was thinking, and she didn't dare to look into his eyes.
It's all because she was too selfish. She was really tired, so she wanted to die for relief.
But now she doesn't even deserve to die. No matter how tired she is, she must finish this journey.
"I don't blame you, I really don't blame you. Sheng'er was implicated by me. If it weren't for me..." Yue Rushuang's voice became lower and lower, and he no longer had the strength to finish the sentence.
"Sheng'er died because of you two!" Lin Ran suddenly said, "Azai, Rushuang, you must always remember Sheng'er's death. I know you are sad and painful, but you must live. I don't care. Are you tired or happy? You have to live anyway, otherwise Sheng'er's sacrifice will be meaningless!"
At the end, she added, "You owe her this!"
That's right, they owe Sheng'er this!
As Lin Ran said, no matter how painful and tiring they are, they must live because their lives are no longer just their own!

Yin Tianxing lived close to the study, some distance away from Lin Zai's room. Yin Tianxun and Zheng Zhen went to his room as soon as they returned home, so they didn't know what happened to Lin there.
Zheng Zhen kept crying. She still couldn't believe that Sheng'er was really dead.
They were still chatting in the morning. How could a living person die just because he said he was dead?
It was all her fault. If she hadn't insisted on it, it wouldn't have reached this point.
Yin Tianxun heard Zheng Zhen crying, but he had no intention of comforting him. He only thought about Ah Zai, what is she doing now? If she knew about Miss Sheng'er, would she be very sad and painful?
