Mrs. Gu Sr. kept Lady Lin for lunch, and only then did she leave, while Lin Qining stayed behind. After the meal, they saw off Lady Lin, and Mrs. Gu Sr. called for Sister Hui and others to take Lin Qining for a walk in the large garden, leaving Lin Youning to talk.
"Originally, I thought your mother was a good person. Even though I've spoiled you as you grew up, which child wouldn't hope for their birth parents? Seeing your mother's behavior today, don't feel upset. Perhaps it's just that you have a weak bond with her."
"I was raised by you, Aunty, so how could I not see what you see? Don't worry, the moment I saw how cold she was towards me, I lost all longing for her. I used to be curious about what my parents were like, but now even that curiosity is gone." Lin Youning smiled faintly, "I've left my second sister here because you raised me, Aunty, and I can't let people gossip about you because of me. So I made the decision myself, please don't blame me, Aunty."
