Chapter 74: Start Thinking For Yourself

After everyone left, Lin Yan took her mother home.

Initially, her mother had been in high spirits when her grandfather had invited them home for dinner. However, no one had imagined that things would turn out this way. Thus, her mother seemed quiet and despondent on the way home.

Lin Yan knew very well that her mother had shouldered all the blame and guilt by herself all these years, which had resulted in her declining health.

If this carried on, she was afraid that her mother’s health and mental state would deteriorate even further.

She had tried many methods to divert her mother’s focus, but she had been wallowing too deeply in misery…

When her mother had divorced her father, the judge had ruled that her mother would be able to get alimony and a house.

However, First Uncle had often gotten into trouble. One day, in a drunken state, he had offended a wealthy young master and gotten sued. His life would have been over if he had been sent to jail.

Her mother had given up her alimony as a condition for Lin Yuetong to save her uncle.

That had included the huge house in the capital city, which Lin Yuetong had been supposed to give her. Her mother had ended up staying in a rundown little place in the suburbs instead.

After that incident, her First Uncle hadn’t shown any gratitude. He had even vented his frustration about being sued on her mother.

When they reached her mother’s place, Lin Yan wound her arm around her mother and comforted her.

“Mom, ignore what they said. Don’t use their mistakes to punish yourself. You’ve done everything you could. You don’t owe me anything, and I’m already all grown-up. I can take care of myself. As for Shuya, she has Father. They are leading a good life. You don’t have to worry at all…”
