Chapter 396 You're Just Confused

Lin's mother remembered clearly that it was an afternoon.

She didn't understand why other people had their parents by their side, but her father always came and disappeared in a hurry.

Why did she call her father "sir"? Why did her mother not allow her to mention her father without permission, not allow her to see her father and show him affection like other children?

Although she enjoyed a comfortable living condition, Old Lady Sheng asked her to dress simply and taught her to show an expression of fear and reluctance every time she met her father.

She had to learn to cry, pretend to be strong, and use all the tricks that a child should have in order to attract her father's attention and win his love.

Lin's mother never knew why.

Until she was three years old, she was taken to a super luxury mansion by Mrs. Sheng.

Like a royal palace in a fairy tale, the scene before her completely overturned all her fantasies as a child.

It turns out that a private hospital can be set up at home, and that the medical staff of an entire building can serve one person exclusively.

The thin and beautiful woman lying on the hospital bed is the owner of the palace.

The maids respectfully called her "Mrs. Sheng", and when Old Lady Sheng saw her, she would bow and address her respectfully as "Madam".

Mother Lin didn't understand why Old Lady Sheng brought her here, but she heard Old Lady Sheng crying to the woman.

Old Mrs. Sheng claimed that she was a lonely and helpless mother who lived in poverty. She was worried about her child being left alone at home with no one to take care of him, so she brought him to the Sheng family.

With tears in her eyes, she repeatedly begged the woman for forgiveness.

Just at this moment, the ward was pushed open.

Lin's mother saw the most unforgettable scene in her life - her biological father was holding a girl who was as cute as a princess and was about the same age as her.

However, their clothes and temperament are completely different, like the collision between the ugly duckling and the white swan.

Everyone doted on the girl, and the maids took good care of her, respectfully calling her "Miss Yue'er."

No! That's not the case!

This girl is not the father's child! The real child is her!

At that time, the crazy voice in Lin's mother's heart was shouting, but she was powerless. Old Madam Sheng taught her to bend down and bow her head, and like everyone else, respectfully call the other person: "Miss Yue'er."

She had to bow deeply to Mr. Sheng and at the same time call out the respectful "Mr. Sheng."

Mother Lin was unwilling to do so, so Old Lady Sheng pushed her and she fell to the ground in a mess.

It was then that Madam Sheng came to the rescue and said, "You are just a kid, there is no need to be so formal."

The memories faded away unconsciously, and this was a nightmare that Lin's mother would never forget in her life.

She suddenly laughed at herself, "Mother, when you took me to the late lady's ward, wouldn't the maids who saw me know that I was her illegitimate daughter? You fired them and drove them away, but can you really shut them up forever?"

"Do you still remember that day when you deliberately made me fall and made me so embarrassed, just to win our father's pity for us? When Shengyue ran from her father's arms and tried to help me up, I pushed her away in anger, and you slapped me hard."

"You forced me to kneel down and apologize to Shengyue, how could I not hate her?"

Lin's mother hated this unfair treatment. They were both children of the same father, but they were treated so differently.

All this is just because Shengyue was born a daughter. Why can she enjoy a happy life? Why can she be a princess? Why do everyone protect her?

"Why didn't the car that rushed towards her kill her on the night she went missing?" Lin's mother's voice was trembling, she was uncontrollably crazy: "Why is she still alive? Why was she adopted?"

"She has obviously lost her memory, so why did she come into our lives? Will I never be able to get rid of her in this life?"

"Is my life with her destined to be that I must lose to her the first time I see her? I stole her designated fiancé, and her daughter also ruined Xian'er's marriage!"

"Mom, you saw how they protected Jiang Zhiyue at the birthday party. How long can you keep that secret hidden? Are you really willing to watch Jun'er become a fugitive?"

"These old matters must be resolved!" Mother Lin's face was grim and full of resentment. "If you are unwilling to take action, then I will do it!"

Old Madam Sheng knew very well that the situation was tense and Chu Junyue didn't mean to be joking, but the only thing she could do was, "Wait."

Mother Lin couldn't help but roar, "What are you waiting for? Wait until Jiang Zhiyue marries Chu Junyue?"

Old Madam Sheng shook her head, handed a stack of photos to Lin's mother, and said in a deep voice: "Give these photos to the Bai family, and remember, don't let anyone know that they are related to us."

A deep light flashed in Lin's mother's eyes.

Old Madam Sheng, "What do you think of that kid from the Qin family? His recent actions are really too bold."

"Also, tell them to keep a close eye on Jiang Zhiyue's whereabouts and find a way to get her blood sample. I always feel like something is wrong..."

After Mrs. Sheng finished speaking, the cold light in her eyes turned into a fierce look. She suddenly raised her hand and pointed to an intricately carved box on the table: "This is the tonic Huier sent. Take one to your father."

…….

Xiao's Mansion.

Play a game of black and white chess.

Xiao Jingrun, who played first, chose the black piece this time.

The pattern on the chessboard is a jigsaw puzzle of black and white.

What is different from the past is that Xiao Jingrun, who has always been known for his solid defense, changed his style and adopted a radical and proactive strategy.

He made his moves very quickly, and every step was full of aggression, forcing Mr. Xiao's white pieces mercilessly.

However, in the end, Mr. Xiao used only one white piece, which was like a stroke of genius, and instantly reversed the entire situation.

Mr. Xiao smiled and said, “Your defense is unstable.”

When Xiao Jingrun heard this, his eyelashes moved slightly.

Old Master Xiao asked, "It seems that the girl you recommended no longer meets the role and expectations you originally set for her. Jingrun, do you regret this?"

His words were gentle and kind, like a huge rock hitting the chessboard, causing ripples like huge waves.

Xiao Jingrun twisted a black piece and stared at the chessboard that had already become a foregone conclusion. He had no place to put the piece in his hand. He said silently, "This round, my grandson lost."

Old Master Xiao smiled deeply, "The marriage between the Chu and Lin families broke down, the Sheng and Chu families could not get married, and they became enemies. The most valued child of the Lin family's direct lineage has also become a wanted criminal."

"Jingrun, you didn't lose, you're just upset."
