"We must take control of our own destiny. Let us handle these dirty tasks from now on! What do you say?"
After Zhao Hanyue finished speaking, she looked at her three sons, waiting for them to process what she had said, without saying anything more.
After a long while, Lin Chenglie stood up, bowed to his mother, and said earnestly:
“Mother, I know that my sister did this for me. I am not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong. I know how good my sister is to me. From now on, we will protect her.”
"Yes, we'll protect her!"

"Alright, you can all go back now! I'm tired!"
Once the matter was settled, Zhao Hanyue began to usher people out.

The next day, Lin Qianqian went straight to her Tingyu Pavilion, claiming that she wanted to visit her.
[Seriously, someone's here to torture themselves first thing in the morning! Is life unbearable for them??]
Lin Yuxin didn't expose her; she wanted to see what Lin Qianqian was up to.
"Little sister, let me take you out for a walk today!"
Lin Qianqian warmly took Lin Yuxin's hand and said.
"No, what happened yesterday was too scary. I won't go out for a while!"
Lin Yuxin, however, did not take the bait.
