Chapter 271 Family Meeting

When they arrived in the city, it was already dark, so they went straight to Lu Jingshen's house.

Then Lin Xiaoxia called Lin Rui and asked him to find a way to come over with Lin Jianye. Huang Wanxia couldn't know about this. After all, her illness had not been completely cured yet, and she was afraid of stimulation. It was not sure to what extent she could accept this information, so it was better not to let her know.

Lin Rui has found a psychologist for her these two days. He will wait and see how she performs after a period of psychological treatment.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Rui quickly told Lin Jianye to go to Uncle Zhang's house in the building in front to play chess.

Lin Jianye knew what this meant and told Huang Wanxia that they were going to play chess and would be back soon.

Huang Wanxia didn't think much about it. It was normal for them to go out and play chess after just finishing their meal.

Lin Mei felt a little restrained sitting on the sofa. She hadn't been to the city for many years. In addition, the decoration of Lin Xiaoxia's house was very avant-garde, so she always felt that this place was like a scene from TV.

Lin Xiaoxia washed the fruit for Lin Mei and then took some snacks: "Xiaoya, this is your sister's house. Do whatever you want. Dad and second brother will be here soon."

Lin Mei still didn't dare to reach out.

Lin Xiaoxia pulled Lin Mei to her feet and said, "Then come with me into the house. Can we talk alone?"

Lin Mei nodded and followed Lin Xiaoxia into the bedroom.

There were only two of them, and Lin Mei relaxed a little: "Sister, you are really my sister, right?"

Lin Xiaoxia smiled and pinched Lin Mei's little face: "I am your sister. I will love you very much in the future. I will buy you the most beautiful clothes and make you a lot of delicious food."

Lin Mei finally smiled: "It's good to have a sister."

Lin Xiaoxia pulled Lin Mei to stand in front of the window, looking into the distance: "From now on, you can tell me anything, okay?"

Lin Mei nodded: "Well, was my name Lin Mei when I was a child?"

"Well, do you want to change your name back?" Lin Xiaoxia asked Lin Mei tentatively.

Lin Mei thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't really like the name Zhaodi. When I was little, my mother often went to the hospital to ask for prescriptions to give me a brother. I remember coming home from school one time and hearing them say they wanted to spend some money to buy a boy. But I don't know why they didn't buy him, so in the end, I ended up having him."

Lin Xiaoxia sighed and said, "Then change your name back, change your age, and move your household registration back to the city. It will also be convenient for studying or finding a job."

Lin Mei didn't say anything. She didn't know whether she should change it. Although she didn't like the name Zhaodi, she had been called that for so many years. It was given to her by her adoptive father.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Lin Xiaoxia quickly pulled Lin Mei out.

When they arrived at the living room, Lin Jianye and Lin Rui had already come in.

Looking at Lin Mei, Lin Jianye was so excited that he could hardly move his feet: "Is it Xiaoya?"

Lin Xiao supported Lin Jianye and said, "Yes, Dad, this is Xiaoya."

Lin Jianye staggered to Lin Mei's front, put his hands on her shoulders, and tears fell: "My child, you are finally back. Dad has been looking for you for so many years."

Lin Mei looked at Lin Jianye crying, her heart seemed to be pulled, and she also shed tears.

At this time, Lin Rui hugged Lin Jianye and Lin Mei and cried together.

When Lin Xiaoxia found Lin Mei, she didn't have the same feeling as now. She just felt sad and wiped away her tears.

Lu Jingshen hugged Lin Xiaoxia and patted her back.

It took Lin Jianye a while to calm down, and Lin Xiao helped him sit on the sofa.

Everyone found a place to sit down.

Lin Jianye pulled Lin Mei to sit next to him and looked at her: "Child, Daddy is sorry for you."

On the way, Lin Mei listened to Lin Xiaoxia and the others telling her the details of what happened. She knew that she couldn't blame her parents. Although she also had complaints in her heart, if she hadn't been lost, she might have a different life. But this matter could only be blamed on Ai Zhu, not her family's fault.

She said to Lin Jianye, "It's not your fault." She still couldn't call him "Dad" because she had been calling Qin Zhigang "Dad" during the day. Now that he suddenly called her "Dad", she didn't know how to adapt.

Lin Jianye didn't care about this. After all, his child had just returned, and it was the best thing for him to be able to come back. He was very satisfied that he could see his child come back in his lifetime.

Lin Xiaoxia asked Lin Rui: "Second brother, how is Mom doing?"

Lin Rui said, "Today I took Mom to have lunch with the psychiatrist and we had a chat. The psychiatrist said Mom is recovering well, but she just doesn't want to remember the sad memories. It would be best to try hypnosis. Tomorrow is a day off, and I plan to take Mom to the psychiatrist's house for hypnosis."

After hearing this, Lin Xiaoxia breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, second brother, I'm counting on you to take care of Mom's matter. Then we can go home together and get together as a family."

"Yes, this is really a scene that I could never have imagined in my dreams before. It's great." Lin Rui smiled like a child.

Lin Xiao also said: "I was not a good big brother before, but I will definitely take good care of you three in the future."

Lin Jianye said, "As your father, I owe you the most. I should do a better job of fulfilling my responsibilities as a father in the future."

After that, he turned to Lu Jingshen and said, "Jingshen, Xiaoya has to stay here for a few days. I have to let your mother calm down before Xiaoya goes back."

Lu Jingshen smiled and said, "Dad, Xiaoxia and I think so too. Let Xiaoya live here. You don't have to worry."

Lin Xiaoxia said, "It just so happens that I'm taking Xiaoya to buy some clothes tomorrow. The little girl needs to dress up nicely."

Lin Jianye also smiled and said, "Well, all the girls in our family are beautiful."

Lin Rui then asked Lin Xiaoxia: "Xiaoxia, even if the little girl recognizes me, do I still need to go back? What should I do over there?"

In fact, this is also what Lin Jianye wanted to ask, but he didn’t know how to ask it just now, so he looked at Lin Xiaoxia at this time.

Lin Xiaoxia also knew that this was something that everyone had to discuss and face together: "I said bring Xiaoya back, recognize her as a relative, and let her make her own decision."

After all, Lin Mei has feelings for the Qin family. If the case goes to court, Lin Mei cannot accept it. Although they all know that the Qin family members are not good people, they can't be too tough on this matter, otherwise Lin Mei will be hurt. They can only try their best to find the best solution for Lin Mei.

Lin Jianye said: "Xiao Ya, Dad thinks you are still young and should go to school." On the one hand, he wanted to re-plan the child's future, and on the other hand, he wanted her to come back to school so that she could stay here.

This is what Lin Xiaoxia thought too. She also said, "I also think Xiaoya should go to school." Later, she would find a way to make the Qin family sever ties with Lin Mei, but it would take some time.

Lin Mei shook her head: "I've dropped out of school for two years. I can't keep up."

Lin Jianye said, "It's okay. We don't need to take the high school entrance exam. We can just study for a year in the third year of junior high school. If you don't get into high school, we'll pay for you to go to a technical school. You'll always have a skill."

Lin Mei began to hesitate.

Lin Xiaoxia said to her, "I'm three years older than you. I'm going to attend night school now. If I were a few years younger, I would also go back to school. It's not easy to have such an opportunity and life experience."

Lin Mei's heart wavered. She asked, "If I can't keep up with my studies, others will laugh at me."

Lin Xiaowan said: "No, I will donate a library to your school when the time comes, and the teachers and classmates will treat you well."

This was not something Lin Xiaoxia came up with on a whim. Anyway, it was easy for her to make money here, and she also wanted to do some charity work. She had inquired before and knew that a junior high school library didn't have much money, so it would be a good opportunity to help her sister.
