When the notorious adopted daughter of the Shen family returned to Hong Kong, the city's elite society descended into chaos.
At the age of twelve, Lin Ran and her mother came to live as d...
Chapter 49
She uttered those two words expressionlessly: "Mother, do you know why he hasn't come to Hong Kong to harass you and ask you for money all these years?
Because he thought he had accidentally killed me and became a murderer, he didn't dare to show up.
If he knew I was still alive, do you think he would let you go?"
Lin Ruolan was shocked and frightened, as if she was meeting this timid and introverted daughter for the first time. Her face turned pale and she said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
No wonder, no wonder that bastard never showed up once in all these years, nor did he continue to ask her for money. She thought he had a change of heart after occupying the house that was to be demolished in his hometown. It turns out there was another reason.
No, Lin Ran must not be allowed to return to the small fishing village, nor can the Shen family be allowed to know about her shameful past.
Lin Ran said indifferently, "I'm not talking nonsense. As long as the Shen family investigates, they will know that there are no secrets in a place like a small fishing village."
Lin Ruolan said in a panic: "Then let's not go back to apply for a new ID card. After your grandmother passed away, there is nothing left in our hometown anyway.
I'll go talk to your Uncle Chen and have your household registration transferred here. It's just a matter of a word from him. Ranran, let's not talk about the past anymore. We are the only two left in this world, mother and daughter, to rely on each other."
Lin Ruolan said as she wiped away her tears.
Lin Ran looked indifferent and said coldly: "If you don't mention it, I naturally won't mention it."
There was nothing worth mentioning about the past, and no one cared whether she was doing well or not. She brought up the past today to tell Lin Ruolan that she was not a puppet in her hands.
From now on, they will live in peace and harmony. She will live her life as a rich wife and walk her own path. No one can interfere with or control anyone!
Lin Ruolan breathed a sigh of relief. For the first time, she realized that although her daughter looked weak, she was actually a biting wolf cub. Her unexpected bite almost killed her.
Lin Ruolan didn't dare to look her in the eyes, nor did she dare to ask what happened in the small fishing village that year.
When Lin Ran was kicked out of the Shen family and she handed her over to that dead guy, she thought her daughter was dead. She never thought that one day Lin Ran would return to the Shen family.
The mother and daughter entered the side hall one after the other.
In the side hall, Shen Zhongqi was sitting in the tea room drinking tea and reading the newspaper.
Shen Jinghan was having dinner.
Shen Zhuoyu leaned against the handrail on the second floor, playing games.
The father and his two sons each occupied one side, achieving a strange harmony.
No one spoke.
All the servants hid far away, and the housekeeper didn't dare to show up.
Lin Ruolan glanced at her daughter, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Old Shen, there is something I need you to decide.
The eldest young master said that Ranran’s ID card had expired and did not comply with the employment rules and regulations, so he wanted to fire her.
You know, after her grandmother passed away, I'm her only relative. I was thinking about registering her household registration in Hong Kong."
Shen Zhongqi looked up from the newspaper, thinking it was a big deal.
The boss is still young after all. He couldn't sit still on the second day and came up with such a lame excuse?
"Okay." Shen Zhongqi put down the newspaper, looked at Lin Ran's pure and charming face, and slender and tall figure, and nodded. If used well, she would be a chess piece.
"Let's move to Hong Kong. Ranran is considered the Shen family's adopted daughter. Why not pick a date, recognize her, and include her in the Shen family's genealogy?"
This way, the Shen family will have another daughter who can be married off, and it will also completely stop the second son's thoughts.
"No!" two voices shouted in unison.
Shen Jinghan looked gloomy as he looked towards Shen Zhuoyu on the second floor.
The two brothers faced each other from a distance.
