Chapter 165: 073: Maintenance_3

Zhao Cuinong continued, "Have you thought about that matter?"

Before Lin Bingqiang could reply, Zhao Cuinong turned to her son standing beside her, "Go take a bath, you still have school tomorrow."

"Oh." Lin Guodong obediently went to find clothes for his bath.

Watching his son’s back, Lin Bingqiang took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, and after a long pause, he finally said, "Mom, can you be sure this is true?"

He still couldn’t accept that his elder sister wasn’t blood-related to him.

Zhao Cuinong said, "If you don’t believe it, I can go call her over right now."

As she spoke, she turned to leave.

Lin Bingqiang grabbed her hand, "Mom might be asleep by now, let’s not disturb the old lady."

Zhao Cuinong looked at Lin Bingqiang, "So what are you really thinking right now?"

Lin Bingqiang felt his mind was a mess, "I don’t know."

"Qiangzi, are you afraid that once your elder sister learns about this matter, she won’t acknowledge you as her brother or become distant from you?" Zhao Cuinong tentatively asked.

"Of course not!" Lin Bingqiang quickly denied.

Zhao Cuinong said, "Then why are you avoiding this topic?"

Lin Bingqiang took a deep drag of his cigarette, finally sighing, "It’s just that I can’t digest this news right away."

With that, he looked at Zhao Cuinong, "Cui Nong, if even I can’t digest this, do you think elder sister can accept it just like that?"

Although Lin Bingqiang’s words were sensible, Zhao Cuinong still said, "But have you ever thought about one thing, what if elder sister was trafficked here? Maybe her real family is still out there looking for her!"

If they knew the truth but didn’t tell Lin Guixiang, it could lead to a regret that could never be mended.

Standing in a mother’s shoes, Zhao Cuinong didn’t want things to turn out this way.

"What if elder sister was abandoned?" Lin Bingqiang asked.

Lin Guixiang’s early life was already filled with darkness, and now that she was finally enjoying good days, as her brother, Lin Bingqiang didn’t want her to go through pain again.

"Elder sister has us as family, that’s enough!" Lin Bingqiang said.

Zhao Cuinong shook her head, "You can never understand the feelings of a mother who has lost her child."

She just couldn’t think about it without her heart aching unbearably.

After speaking, Zhao Cuinong continued, "Even if elder sister was abandoned, I think she has the right to know about her own background! Everyone living in this world should at least know who they are! My mother also said that elder sister’s birthday is made up. When she came, she was already three or four years old, had trouble speaking clearly, and her accent was very strange. So our parents took the day they met her to be her birthday."

Your birth time is believed to influence your fate.

Yet Lin Guixiang doesn’t even know her own birth time...

Hearing this, Lin Bingqiang’s eyes reddened.

He didn’t understand why fate had to play such a joke on Lin Guixiang.

Moments later, he reached out and patted Zhao Cuinong’s shoulder, "Cui Nong, give me some time to process this."

"Sure." Zhao Cuinong nodded.

Second floor.

After returning home, Lin Guixiang began to tidy up the housework.

Just after mopping the floor, she put down the mop and looked at Lin Wu, "Xiao Wu, did you notice your uncle acting a bit strange today?"

"Where do you think he was strange?" Lin Wu asked.

Lin Guixiang narrowed her eyes, "His gaze was strange."

He didn’t dare to look her in the eyes.

He kept sneakily observing her.

As if he was hiding something from her.

Considering this, Lin Guixiang turned to Lin Wu, "Xiao Wu, do you think he’s hiding something from me?"

Lin Guixiang had always taken on both the roles of a father and mother, worrying habitually.

Seeing her brother like that, she grew concerned.

Lin Guixiang narrowed her eyes again, "I don’t know what’s going on, but these past few days, I keep feeling as if something is about to happen, my heart keeps thumping."

And with Lin Bingqiang’s abnormal behavior, this made Lin Guixiang even more worried.

After speaking, Lin Guixiang added, "It’s not just your little uncle; even your auntie seems a bit strange."

Strange in an indescribable way.

Hearing this, Lin Wu slightly raised her eyebrows, "If you say so, then I also feel like little uncle was indeed different from usual tonight."

"Right, you also think it’s different." Lin Guixiang sighed lightly, "Do you think your little uncle might be in some trouble?"

Lin Wu smiled, "Mom, little uncle is an adult. If there’s really something he can’t solve, he will definitely tell you proactively; let’s not second guess."

"Xiao Wu, you think I can’t just ask him directly?" Lin Guixiang asked.

Lin Wu shook her head, "I don’t think that’s a good idea."

If Lin Bingqiang hadn’t told Lin Guixiang directly, he must have felt that it was difficult to bring up the matter; if Lin Guixiang asked outright, it would be like putting unintentional pressure on her brother.
