Lin Ran said that Big Brother didn't know Ji Yun, so there was no need for Big Brother to specially come back from overseas.
Moreover … by the time Big Brother returned, the burial time would have already passed! He couldn't possibly delay Ji Yun's burial just to wait for Big Brother.
Since Lin Ran and Lin Nuan both said that they wouldn't call Lin Chen back, Liang Mulan and Lin Jingquan didn't insist.
In front of the tombstone, Lin Ran hesitated for a long time before finally speaking to Lin Nuan in a choked voice …
"This is a letter Mom left behind …" Lin Ran said as she took out a letter from her coat pocket and handed it to Lin Nuan. "The day Mom wasn't around, you called me to come over. When I entered Mom's room, I saw this on the table. Originally … I wanted to take it for myself!"
Lin Nuan was a little surprised. She glanced sideways at Lin Ran.
"But I think there are some things inside that are very important to you! If you don't mind … can you give me the letter after reading it? Please … "
Lin Ran's tone was full of pleading.
Lin Ran was a person who rarely showed weakness in front of others, especially not in front of Lin Nuan. Even when she helped Lin Nuan, she had to act like she didn't care and didn't do it for Lin Nuan's sake.
Lin Ran wouldn't have asked Lin Nuan this if she didn't really want to go all out.
Lin Nuan hesitated.
Under the umbrella, Lin Nuan opened the neatly folded paper. Before she could read it, she heard Liang Mulan calling out to them …
Lin Nuan subconsciously tightened her grip on the letter in her hands. This was something Ji Yun had left behind in her final moments!
Lin Ran could even see Lin Nuan's fingers holding the letter so tightly that they were about to pierce through the paper. Lin Ran could sense the intense struggle in Lin Nuan's heart.
"I have too much remorse and apologies to Mom. From the moment I was born to the moment she passed away, I've never seen her sober. This letter is the evidence of her sobriety, so … can you give it to me? Please … "
Liang Mulan's urging voice rang out again, and Lin Nuan seemed to have made up her mind. She quickly took a photo of the letter with her phone and handed it to Lin Ran.
Lin Ran was very surprised. She had thought that Lin Nuan would fight with her. Seeing Lin Nuan's increasingly reddened eyes, Lin Ran was filled with gratitude!
After a long while, she solemnly took the letter with reddened eyes and thanked Lin Nuan. "Thank you!"
Lin Ran placed the letter into the inner pocket of her black coat. Her hand remained there for a long time as she said, "Lin Nuan … from now on, I'll be your older sister!"
Lin Nuan didn't make a sound, only staring at the tombstone that didn't even have a picture.
"From today onwards, I'll take care of you. I owe Mom … Mom owes you! I'll make it up to you on behalf of Mom! "Lin Ran said as her tears fell uncontrollably.
Lin Nuan held the handle of the umbrella upside down with one hand and quietly held Lin Ran's hand with the other, not saying a word.
Liang Mulan and Lin Ran got into two separate cars at the entrance of the cemetery. Liang Mulan instructed Fu Huai 'an to drive the car to the Lin house. At a time like this, Lin Nuan and Lin Ran would feel better if they were together as a family.
Fu Huai 'an nodded to reassure Liang Mulan.
Lin Nuan only switched on her phone after getting into the car. She enlarged the letter Ji Yun had left behind and read it word by word.
On the day Ji Yun passed away, Lin Nuan had helped her upstairs to rest. After Lin Nuan had gone out, Ji Yun had forced herself to crawl out of bed to write this letter.
Ji Yun talked about her experience in the letter, saying that her mental illness wasn't hereditary.
She said that her memory was blurred, but she remembered it should be when she was 17 years old, she and

Her father went to the hospital to give birth to her younger brother by C-section, and her mother was discharged from the hospital. On the way home, they encountered a car accident, and the car overturned from a bridge into a river. By the time she woke up, she had already been rescued by Lin Nuan's biological father and his family.
Back then, her head had been injured. She had memories of the past, but they were blurry, as if they were separated by a veil … Her memories were behind the veil, and she couldn't see anything clearly. She only remembered that her name was Ji Yun and that she had a younger brother. Later on, due to her intermittent mental problems, her memories of the past became even more blurry.
Lin Nuan's biological father didn't despise Ji Yun for having intermittent mental problems and resolutely married her.
Later on, Lin Nuan's father brought Ji Yun to the US, where she became a financial analyst and did very well. Later on, they had their first child, a boy named Lu Boye. They bought a house in a wealthy district in the US. Lin Nuan's father went to work, and Ji Yun stayed at home to take care of the child. They lived a blissful life!
When Lu Boye was two years old, Ji Yun, who had been engrossed in searching for her family, received news from the detective agency that they seemed to have found Ji Yun's family. Ji Yun called Lin Nuan's biological father and hurried back to the country, leaving Lu Boye in the care of the nanny!
In the end, the family that Ji Yun met when she returned to Haicheng wasn't her family. Ji Yun, who was full of disappointment and preparing to return to the US, received a call from the nanny before she reached the airport, saying that she was taking Lu Boye to the park to play as usual. When she turned around to get Lu Boye's water bottle from the stroller, Lu Boye disappeared! She couldn't find him no matter how hard she tried!
Ji Yun panicked and quickly returned to the US. The police couldn't find any clues no matter how hard they tried, so Lin Nuan's biological father and Ji Yun used their savings to hire a detective to investigate.
They spent all their savings and sold their house and car, but there was no news of Lu Boye. Ji Yun's mental state also broke down, and she often acted up.
Lin Nuan's biological father had no choice but to use his client's money to investigate his son's whereabouts. He was fired after it was discovered.
At that time, they were just one step away from getting a green card in the US, but they were eventually deported back to their country. It was from that day onwards that Ji Yun's mental state never fully recovered, and she never regained consciousness.
Ji Yun couldn't remember the muddle-headed days after she regained consciousness. She only remembered Lin Ran and Lin Nuan later on.
She said that she loved Lin Ran and Lin Nuan, but her mental state really didn't allow her to be a good mother! She hoped that Lin Ran and Lin Nuan wouldn't hate her!
Especially for Lin Ran. She really felt sorry for messing up the blissful life that Lin Ran should have had, making her live such a tough life with them!
After reading the entire letter, Lin Nuan could imagine how a financial analyst who had dark information left behind on his file would have no company daring to hire him. Therefore, he could only rely on his own physical strength to support his wife, who had a mental problem, and his child!
Lin Nuan thought that Lin Nuan's biological father also wanted to search for his lost brother!
But his financial state was barely enough for him to get by. Where would he get the money to search for his child in the US?
He should be in despair!
As for why he switched her and Lin Ran in the end, it was probably because … he didn't want his biological daughter to suffer!
From misappropriating his client's funds to switching someone else's daughter, these two matters should have been pressing down on his heart like two huge mountains!
The first update … came a little late today. Qianqian came back late today … Sorry, sorry!
