When Ye Lanyin opened the cloth bag, she found it was filled with black scraps of paper and pebbles.
No, to be precise, it was silver notes and loose silver.
Her face turned dark.
"Lin Chang'an."
Ye Lanyin forced out these words through gritted teeth: "Where did you get so much money?"
"I...I just carried him here." He put his two index fingers together, looking aggrieved.
"You were adopted? You're so young and you're already learning to lie to your mother, aren't you?" Ye Lanyin pinched Lin Chang'an's ear, feeling disappointed in him.
How could she have given birth to such a stupid child?
Can't even lie?
Lin Chang'an glanced at his innocent younger sister, his heart breaking with grief.
"Mother, you really were adopted."
“They wanted to hold their little sister, and my son said… if they gave him money, they could hold her. Isn’t that… a lie? They… really did hold their little sister… they didn’t lose out…” Lin Chang’an’s voice trailed off.

Second brother, don't cry, second brother, don't cry.
They're lucky to have me hugged, and they even received a charm from me.
They couldn't buy this even if they sold everything they owned...
No loss, no loss.
Lin Wanwan was lying on the ground playing with a ball.
Ye Lanyin shook her head when she heard the familiar baby talk in her ear.
He slapped Lin Chang'an with his palm.
"You brat, return the money to them tomorrow!"
Lin Chang'an covered his head, hid under the table, and peeked out, saying:
