Gao Yan said, "My neighbors are a mother and daughter named Lin Xiumin and Lin Mo'er. Recently, Lin Xiumin suddenly sold off her assets, saying she was going to the capital. I want to know why!"
"What a coincidence, I just happened to know this news!"
Tu Yun said without keeping them in suspense, smiling as she said, "Lin Xiumin is the second daughter of the Lin family in Beijing. She went to Germany to study when she was eighteen. Unexpectedly, she became pregnant during her studies. This was a scandal for the Lin family, so they demanded that Lin Xiumin abort the child."
But Lin Xiumin refused, insisted on giving birth to the child, and brought it back to China.
At this point, Tu Yun took a sip of her beer before continuing, but her tone became somewhat playful: "What's interesting is that Lin Xiumin has been engaged to Meng Zhixian of the Meng family since she was a child. Therefore, when she returned with her child, it enraged the Meng family, and Meng Zhixian even went to the Lin family and caused a scene."
"And then?" Gao Yan pressed.
"The Lin family had to give the Meng family an explanation for this matter, so they expelled Lin Xiumin from the Lin family. Then, Lin Xiumin took her daughter and settled in Nandu!"
"Since she has been expelled from the Lin family, why does she want to return to the capital?"
Gao Yan asked, puzzled.

Meng Zhixian became the head of the Meng family, but his wife passed away from illness last year. He learned that Lin Xiumin was still single, so he wanted to marry her, but Lin Xiumin rejected him.
After learning about this news, Lin Baocheng, the head of the Lin family and Lin Xiumin's eldest brother, began to do his best to make this happen. To this end, they even set up a scheme to make Lin Xiumin's company lose a large sum of money!
Even so, Lin Xiumin was unwilling to leave Nandu, but Lin Bao, in order to curry favor with Meng Zhixian, shamelessly sent people to take Lin Mo'er away. Worried about her daughter's safety, Lin Xiumin had no choice but to give in!
Upon hearing this, Gao Yan's face darkened. He hadn't expected the Lin family to be so despicable.
Then he looked at Tu Yun and asked, "Are the Meng family and the Lin family martial arts families?"
"What's up, little brother? Planning to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? I can help you, you know."
Tu Yun smiled and said, with a hint of probing.
