"Just in case, ask Dad to visit our hometown and check the situation over there," Lin Jiayi reminded.
Mother Lin nodded, "Yes, you're right. We should have done this earlier. I'll ask your Dad to go and see who's still around when we get back."
Although she knew there was likely no one there, Mother Lin still felt it was more secure to take a look.
"By the way, how did you respond when she mentioned Lin Chuxia? Did she notice anything?"
Lin Jiayi recounted the entire conversation she had with Zhuang Jingshu to Mother Lin.
She was feeling lost and desperately needed her mother's advice.
Mother Lin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing it, "What you said makes sense. I just have a kind heart, and I was committed to my promise from back then. I felt it would be heartless to abandon my two children plus an adopted daughter, so I had to be strict with my own daughter. Anyone else would do the same; after all, you need to strictly discipline your own kids."
