Chapter 379 Why Bother to Embarrass Others and Embarrass Yourself? !
Liang Mulan smiled, and was about to praise Lin Ran, when she heard Lin Ran say, "Anyway, I'm not very fond of grandma. In grandma's heart... Lin Nuan is a more suitable second miss of the Lin family than me."
"Xiao Ran!" Lin Jingquan's face darkened, "Your grandma didn't mean that."
Lin Ran was not the same as usual, arguing with Lin Jingquan like a cat with blown fur, she nodded under Liang Mulan's unexpected gaze: "Maybe, but I only remember the day I came back to this house, holding a glass of wine When respecting the elders, grandma said... how can a lady drink without saying a word, what kind of environment makes what kind of person, it's no wonder you, learn more from He Nuannuan..."
Lin Ran remembered every word that Mrs. Lin said at that time, and she imitated every word with the strength of her lips and teeth.
Lin Ran felt like sitting on pins and needles for the meal that she had happily welcomed her that day, for fear of doing something embarrassing and disqualifying again.
Lin Jingquan pursed his lips, Liang Mulan's expression was not good-looking, only Lin Chen raised his eyes to look at Lin Ran, with a probing expression...
"Ran Ran!" Liang Mulan stretched out her hand to hold Lin Ran's little hand that was still holding the napkin on the table, "You should know how much grandma loves you these years..."
Liang Mulan didn't continue talking until here, but just held Lin Ran's little hand firmly, and said with a smile: "That's all! It's my mother's fault, so I won't mention this matter in the future! Nuan Nuan didn't say to go Attend grandma's birthday banquet, let's not talk about it..."
Lin Jingquan already knew from Lin Chen how he was released. In addition to the years of father-daughter love for Lin Nuan, he also had gratitude and guilt. He put down the chopsticks in his hand and said to Lin Nuan: "Ran Ran, Dad say it again, I hope you can treat Nuan Nuan as your real sister or sister. Both of you are children of the Lin family, and the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh..."
"dad……"
Lin Ran curled her lips into a smile, and calmly withdrew her hand from Liang Mulan's, and put down the napkin. The little hand resting on her lap clenched tightly, and her nails sank into the tender flesh of her palm, but it was not as painful as her heart... …
She smiled lightly, using a smile to hide the mist in her eyes: "Don't be angry, I told you that I have no objection to asking Lin Nuan to attend grandma's birthday banquet. From the beginning to the end, I didn't say anything about Lin Nuan. Half of the sentence is not, when Lin Nuan returned to the Lin family that day, did I not perform enough to satisfy you?! Or did I offend Lin Nuan in some way, and it deserves your anger, Dad?!"
Lin Jingquan's torch-like eyes looked at Lin Ran, and his tone softened: "Dad just said I hope, I hope you don't care about grandma, I hope you can treat Lin Nuan well..."
Lin Ran nodded, with a look of approval: "I have to not argue with grandma, and I have to treat Lin Nuan kindly, and I have to have the heart of a virgin..."
Lin Ran obviously didn't finish speaking, but her voice stopped abruptly.
She lowered her head and smiled, shaking her head like self-deprecating, as if to stop herself from speaking, then raised her head, Lin Ran's eyes sparkled, and her smile was like a flower: "I see, Dad..."
Regarding Lin Ran's anomaly, not to mention the Lin family, even the servants noticed that it was unusual.
I thought that this morning would be a war full of gunpowder, but I didn't want Lin Ran to admit defeat so lightly, instead of fighting hard as usual, telling her grievances and resentment.
Probably, Lin Ran realized that no matter how much she said, it was useless...
Since childhood, Lin Ran has heard that crying children have milk!
Perhaps this truth is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so... when Lin Ran, who can cry and make trouble, stands with Lin Nuan, who can only be bored in his heart, the Lin family will not only favor Lin Nuan emotionally, but also feel that Lin Nuan She is a child who can't cry and needs more love and love.
She, Lin Ran, was the crying child, she was just moaning for nothing.
In the Lin family, Lin Ran has always been...alone.
Even if she filled the house with things that belonged to her, those things would not be able to taint the atmosphere of the house in the slightest, just like her Lin Ran.
In the past, Lin Ran had to compete with Lin Nuan in the hearts of the Lin family. To put it bluntly...it was just that she cared too much about her relatives, with a childish willfulness, but a child...the heart that loves her family is the purest of.
When Lin Ran gradually realized that no matter how well she did, she couldn't really have her own parents and her elder brother. She suddenly felt tired and didn't want to fight anymore...
No matter how much she fights, she can't fight against Lin Nuan who doesn't fight for anything. Why bother to embarrass others and embarrass herself? !
That day, when Lin Nuan came to the Lin family, she and Lin Nuan said that in the kitchen, it was the last chance she gave herself and the Lin family, but the attitude of Liang Mulan and Lin Jingquan this morning made Lin Ran clearly realize that, She could erase Lin Nuan from the Lin family, but she couldn't erase Lin Nuan from their hearts.
She will never be Lin Ran, she is Lu Ran!
That homeless Lu Ran...
With this awareness, Lin Ran felt as if his heart had been pierced and pierced by an ice pick, and the bone-piercing coldness spread to his whole body along with the blood.
She smiled even more, signaling to the servant to take away the tableware in front of her, and then said: "I'm done, Dad, Mom, brother, if you've finished eating, I have something to say."
Lin Jingquan and Liang Mulan couldn't eat anymore. Hearing what Lin Ran said, they put down their chopsticks and looked at her.
"I applied to the University of Sheffield to study for a postgraduate degree. The written application has been approved, and I will go to an interview. If I pass it... I can complete my postgraduate studies at the University of Sheffield. The interview is next Monday, and I have already booked it Air ticket, departure this afternoon, if I pass the interview, I will stay in the UK to familiarize myself with the environment and wait for admission..."
This means that he does not intend to come back.
That's why Lin Ran said that she had no objection to asking Lin Nuan to attend Mrs. Lin's birthday banquet, because she didn't plan to attend at all...
Originally, Lin Ran didn't plan like this.
She was planning to go out to play for two days and go to the UK. If she passed the interview, she would come back to tell her family the good news. If she didn't pass, it would be treated as a real visit.
But now, Lin Ran had no way out, and had to pass the interview.
Lin Ran's reason was justified, and no one in the family could stop her, they could only watch Lin Ran leave with her suitcase.
Liang Mulan experienced the pain when Lin Nuan left that year, crying at home.
Lin Chen and Lin Nuan talked about this matter, and they wanted Lin Nuan to go back to see Liang Mulan and comfort her.
Lin Nuan was silent for a while, and then said, "Brother, if Mom is fine at home during this time, you can go to England to accompany Lin Ran. At such an important moment, the most important relatives should be by her side, especially when Lin Ran goes It's a foreign country again..."
