Chapter 27: The World is Really Small
Lin Wan'er and Lin Cai'er had always lived together for a long time, rarely returning home. The main reason was that their mother's side often had some physically strong men, who were obviously not good people at first glance; secondly, their personalities did not get along with their mother either.
In addition, Lin Wan'er is currently attending university and has a lot of classes every day. Her sister, Lin Cai'er, is a high-ranking executive in the company and has to deal with many complicated matters every day, leaving her no time to spare. There are countless files waiting for Lin Cai'er's signature, and she often has to attend several meetings.
Lin Caier and her sister are from a single-parent family. Since they were old enough to remember, they have never seen their father and have always relied on their mother for survival.
However, their mother's temper had always been very violent, and she would often scold and beat them for no reason; sometimes she would also inexplicably hide alone in a deserted corner and cry, which made Lin Cai'er and her sister feel very puzzled.
So gradually, Lin Cai'er and Lin Wan'er's distance from their mother grew farther and farther. In name, they were still in a mother-daughter relationship, but in reality, they had become like strangers.
Based on all these reasons, Lin Wan'er and her sister rarely return home.
Lin Wan'er, who has just entered university, lives a simple and regular life. From Monday to Friday, she spends her days listening to lectures at the university and nights searching for materials helpful for graduate school exams in the library; on weekends, she goes to her sister's place.
The two sisters chatted and talked about family matters, which also brought them closer together emotionally. Lin Wan'er felt that in this world, the person closest to her was her sister. She would take care of herself meticulously when she was sick; when she was studying for exams, she would be anxiously waiting like an ant on a hot pot; and when she was bullied by male classmates, she would stand up for her without hesitation, shielding her from the wind and rain.
So in Lin Wan'er's heart, this sister was simply another mother to her. From young to old, she would always seek her opinion on everything she did, and regarded her as a dependence in her heart.
Yesterday she just received a call from her mother, saying that she would let her return home in three days. Lin Wan'er's home is in a small mountain in the suburbs of Luobu City, although it is a rural life, but their days are more fulfilling than most city people.
Because they are very rich! Their mother also doesn't know where she gets a lot of money from every now and then, and there are always some suspicious people around her. Because Lin Cai'er sisters and their mother rarely speak, so they didn't ask much about this situation either.
Lying on the small bed in her dormitory, Lin Wan'er stared blankly at the ceiling of her dormitory, thinking to herself, "Why did Mom ask me to go back? It's been so long since we last contacted each other, she has her own life; my sister and I have our own lives too, we're just two parallel lines that don't intersect."
After some thought, Lin Wan'er still gave her sister a call, "Sis, did Mom also ask you to go back?"
"Hmm!" Lin Caier replied indifferently over the phone, but her tone seemed to suggest that she was not too pleased. This was hardly surprising, as Lin Caier was an independent woman who did things and spoke her mind in a straightforward manner.
It's precisely because Lin Cai'er was used to being independent that she wasn't accustomed to being restrained. This time, she also received her mother's phone call, telling her to follow Lin Wan'er back home. In her heart, there were a hundred unwillingnesses, but there was no way out - after all, this woman was their nominal mother!
"Sister, then you'll come to pick me up at that time!" Lin Wan'er naturally heard her sister's dissatisfaction over the phone, but she didn't say anything and instead changed the subject to ask her sister to come pick her up. Lin Wan'er had a good personality and was also very clever.
Since the three people at home don't get along, it's better to say less and just go back for a day or two. Besides, no matter what, she is their biological mother, even if they don't get along, it's not like they're sworn enemies.
After finishing the phone call with her sister, Lin Wan'er continued to stare blankly, thinking to herself, "Was the one I met last time really Ma Chuan? If it was him, he shouldn't have run away so quickly! He's always been nice to his fans, right? But if it wasn't him, why did he look so much like Ma Chuan?"
That day, Lin Wan'er saw Luo Chuan and mistakenly thought he was Ma Chuan. To this day, she still can't forget about it! However, at that time, Luo Chuan was in a hurry to see Lu Tianhao, and he didn't plan on causing any more trouble, so he quickly ran away with the goat-bearded man. This left Lin Wan'er with a lingering resentment until now.
"Hey Caihua Jie, have you called Big Sister?" Hei Xiong asked in a loud voice as he stood beside Qicai Hua.
"Hmm! In a few days, the two sisters will be back. At that time, if our plan goes smoothly, we should also bring back Lin Zhiqing. Hmph, her ransom is the best gift for my daughters!"
Not bad, Qicai Hua is the mother of Lin Wan'er and Lin Cai'er, two sisters. If you are familiar with them, you will be amazed: How can Qicai Hua give birth to two such beautiful daughters!
"I'll go arrange for someone to do it!" Hei Xiong said, turning around and leaving. The past two days they had already discussed and planned to take action soon to capture Lin Zhi Qing. In their eyes, Lin Zhi Qing was just a weak and feeble girl, without any ability to resist.
As long as we bring back Lin Zhiqing, the rest will be easy. With her father's love for her, he would give whatever price Rainbow Flower wants.
Watching the black bear leave, Qicai Hua thought to herself, "You heartless wolf, after taking me in you actually abandoned me. I must make you suffer the consequences. Aren't you most fond of your daughter? I'll make your beloved daughter wish she were dead... Hehe!"
Lian Zhiqing was very satisfied with Luo Chuan's performance during this period. Firstly, Luo Chuan never disobeyed her wishes and let her go shopping for as long as she wanted. Luo Chuan's face didn't even show a hint of dissatisfaction; Secondly, since having Luo Chuan by her side, Lian Zhiqing felt much safer in her heart and no longer worried about being bothered by others like before.
In the car, Lin Zhiqing sat in the driver's seat and drove towards the night market.
"We're going to the night market," Luo Chuan asked with some confusion. As a person of Lin Zhiqing's status, she shouldn't be going to such a place as the night market, where there were many unsavory characters, including thugs and thieves.
"Yes, that's right! We have to go to the night market! I've never been there before, let's experience it!" said Lin Zhiqing with a slight pout.
"Alright! But when you get there, take good care of your belongings and don't let thieves set their sights on you!" Luochuan cautioned.
"Got it! Why are you acting like a middle-aged woman?" said Lin Zhiqing, looking ahead.
