Seeing the sincerity in Lin Yunâs eyes, Wang Lanâs initial hesitation disappeared.
She smiled as she held Lin Yunâs hand and said, âYou know that Xiaoyu has led a wandering life all these years and hasnât received a good education.â
âUnlike you, youâve been at home since you were young. Your parents arranged so many good teachers to teach you.â
âAll of these should have been accessible to Xiao Yuâ¦â
Wang Lan held Lin Yunâs hand tightly and stared at her. She asked, âAm I right?â
Lin Yun lowered her head slightly, her eyes fixed on Wang Lan holding her hand.
She used to think that these hands were filled with loveâ¦
Now that she thought about it, it was these hands that pulled her into the abyss step by step!
Wang Lanâs heart tightened when she saw Lin Yun lower her head and remain silent.
Just when she thought Lin Yun was going to reject her, Lin Yun slowly raised her head again.
âI understand! Iâll do whatever Mom wants me to do!â
Hearing Lin Yunâs words, Wang Lan finally felt relieved.
She smiled and patted Lin Yunâs hand. âItâs great to have a daughter like you!â
Lin Yun smiled gently, looking obedient and sensible.
âThatâs what Mother thinks. Look, youâre still injured. Iâm afraid you wonât be able to participate in this competition.â
âWhy donât you let Xiaoyu take your song to the competition?â
âUse my song?â Lin Yun raised her eyebrows, but her voice remained calm.
The smile on Wang Lanâs face did not change. She seemed to take it for granted.
âThe songs that youâve composed all these years were taught by the teachers that your parents hired. These were originally meant for Xiao Yu, right?â
âYou wonât be able to participate in this competition. Let Xiao Yu participate in the competition. If she wins the award, both of you will be very happy, right?â
âBesides, with the award ceremony, Xiao Yu will no longer be looked down upon by those children!â
As Wang Lan spoke, her eyes seemed to be shining as if she could see Lin Yuâs bright future.
Lin Yun stared intently at Wang Lan, as if trying to find something on her face.
Except she hadnât found what she wanted to see.
Lin Yun sighed softly and smiled warmly. âOkay! Iâll listen to Mom!â
After receiving Lin Yunâs affirmative answer, Wang Lanâs face beamed with joy.
She quickly stood up and said, âMother will go and tell this good news to Xiao Yu. You should rest early!â
Wang Lan left the room without waiting for Lin Yunâs reply.
Lin Yun looked at the bowl of soup beside her with a mocking smile.
She turned on the computer again and looked through the information about Lin Yu.
Wang Lanâs claim that Lin Yu didnât have access to education was not true.
According to Lin Yuâs records, the family that raised her seemed to value her education.
They even signed her up for quite a number of art training courses.
According to Lin Yuâs description of the family situation, they had probably done everything they could to nurture Lin Yu.
Although Lin Yun had yet to find out anything about the âMo Familyâ.
But now that she thought about it, the âbiological parentsâ who had accused her at Lin Yu and Zheng Yuâs engagement party were probably fake too!

The next morning, Lin Yu went out.
Lin Cheng didnât say anything, but he couldnât help but sigh when Mrs. Xu mentioned that Lin Yun was alone in her room preparing for a conference.
âXiao Yu, you look really good today!â Li Ting exclaimed as she looked at Lin Yu, who was wearing a short dress.
âThatâs right! Xiaoyuâs figure is really unmatched among us sisters!â Ni Tang chimed in.
Lin Yu curled her lips and did not mind these praises.
The three of them walked into a salon.
âIn my opinion, Xiao Yuâs skin doesnât need any beauty treatments. Sheâs simply a natural beauty!â In the changing room, Ni Tang said as she changed her clothes.
âIf Ling Na hadnât insisted that Xiao Yuâs skin condition wasnât good, we wouldnât have agreed to meet here today!â
âThatâs right! Ling Na is like that! Whatever she says goes!â
Lin Yu couldnât help but smile as she listened to the two of them ridicule Ling Na.
âOh right! I heard that the senior Ling Na liked had a crush on Lin Yun!â Ni Tang didnât forget to throw out a big piece of gossip.
âThereâs such a thing? Isnât that driving Ling Na crazy!â Li Ting exclaimed.
âI wonder what kind of young master Ling Na likes!â
âWhich school was he from?â Ni Tang said and patted her head in frustration. âOh my, I forgot!â
