I have to say that Cui Yuyan is really stuck in a dead end right now. Even in this situation, she is still looking for various explanations to convince herself.

Lin Yuchen sighed, then casually took out a jade pendant that was emerald green. "Have you ever seen a jade pendant like this?"

The reason he asked this was because he was not sure whether the jade pendant belonging to Cui Yuyan was still there.

Although each of the brother and sister had one such jade pendant, Cui Yuyan was still a baby in swaddling clothes when she was taken away by the Cui family.

Fortunately, when Cui Yuyan saw the jade pendant, her expression changed slightly, and her jade hands clasped in front of her belly unconsciously clenched.

Seeing this, Lin Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief, although he didn't expect why the Cui family would leave such a thing to Cui Yuyan.

But he still smiled slightly and said, "It seems that you should have seen it."

Cui Yuyan nodded, but her mind couldn't help but recall the time several years ago when she met the mute laundry lady in the Cui family's back garden.

In fact, when she was talking to Xiaodie yesterday, she inexplicably thought of this matter.

I also mentioned it to Xiaodie at that time.

But they didn't care at that time, because that incident was already very far away from them, and even the appearance of the laundry lady was blurry.

But at this moment, the picture suddenly became clear.

She even remembered the look in the washerwoman's eyes all of a sudden, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.

She had no idea what that look meant at the time, but now when she thinks about it, she can't help but feel an inexplicable pain in her heart.

It was an indescribably complex look.

Pity, reluctance... no, it's much more than that.

Who is that washerwoman?

'Why is she looking at me like that?'

Just when she was feeling extremely confused, she heard Lin Yuchen walk up to her and hand her the jade pendant.

With a gentle smile, she said, "There are two jade pendants in total. One is engraved with the character [Yan], and the one I have is engraved with the character [Chen]."

Cui Yuyan glanced at him and subconsciously reached out to take it. There was still a trace of residual warmth on the warm jade pendant.

Cui Yuyan rubbed the surface of the jade pendant with her hand and felt a mark. Turning it over, she saw that it was indeed a small character, carved a little clumsily, and it didn't look like the work of a famous craftsman.

"This was carved by our mother herself. This is her first time, so it's a little ugly. Yours is much better looking."

Lin Yuchen smiled slightly.

Cui Yuyan stroked the words and smiled unconsciously.

The next moment, he couldn't help but have red eyes.

At this moment, she could no longer deceive or "convince" herself.

Deep down, I have actually accepted that what Lin Yuchen said must be true.

This also made her feel confused.

"I'm actually the daughter of the Lin family?"

"My foster father is actually the enemy who destroyed my Lin family?"

"But……"

Cui Yuyan looked up at Lin Yuchen, "If that's the case, then why did my adoptive father adopt me, the daughter of his enemy?"

Lin Yuchen actually called Cui Laozei his godfather. He couldn't help but frown, but he held it back in the end.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and shook his head.

"I can't answer this question either. I don't know what the old thief Cui is thinking, but... this can't change the blood feud between him and my Lin family."

Cui Yuyan's expression changed slightly, and after a while she murmured, "So, my name should have been Lin Yuyan, right?"

Lin Yuchen was silent for a moment, then nodded.

But seeing his sister's attitude, he felt very sad inside. He had imagined many scenes of recognizing each other.

He thought his sister would accuse him of not fulfilling his responsibilities as a brother.

Or the brother and sister hugged each other and cried bitterly.

But I never thought about the atmosphere in front of me.

Cui Yuyan, no, it should be said that Lin Yuyan, clearly believed it...

But her expression was more complicated, tangled, and perhaps a little sad.

But there was not the anger, grief, or excitement he had imagined.

No!

In his heart, he wanted to ask, "You knew that over a thousand members of your family had been murdered, including your father and mother. Don't you feel a bit of anger in your heart?"

But in the end he didn't speak.

Lin Yuyan suddenly asked, "So what are you going to do next? Are you going to seek revenge on Yi... Prime Minister Cui?"

Lin Yuchen glanced at her, gritted his teeth again and again, and finally nodded vigorously.

"Then I..."

Lin Yuyan hesitated halfway through her speech.

"No."

Lin Yuchen said forcefully.

Then he simply turned around... This was definitely not the brother-sister meeting he wanted.

Why is this happening?

"In that case, I'll take my leave."

Lin Yuyan was silent for a moment, and finally said only this.

Lin Yuchen didn't say anything.

He didn't turn around until Lin Yuyan turned away for a long time, for he was afraid that he couldn't help himself.

He totally couldn't understand why Lin Yuyan was so cold.

He didn't know that beneath Lin Yuyan's calm appearance, her delicate body was trembling slightly under her clothes.

The moment I turned around, tears couldn't stop flowing out of my sad eyes.

She could feel Lin Yuchen's anger and disappointment.

She could also feel Lin Yuchen's excitement and concern when he first saw her.

This kind of look was unfamiliar to her. Although Cui Zhihao and Cui Zhihan from the Cui family also called her sister, they would never look at her like this.
