Chapter 110 Finally Recognized
Lin Shushu knew about the Lin family leaving J56 on the same day, but she did nothing more and let them go.
She was right; the Lin family had indeed transferred the mining area. In that case, it was time for her to leave.
Mo Ze had no objection to this; wherever Lin Shushu went, he followed. Although it might sound a bit unmanly, it was indeed his true feeling.
After deciding to leave, Lin Shushu hesitated. Now, the only thing she had to consider was the An siblings.
If she left, she wouldn't be able to take care of them. But she couldn't let them come with her either; since she didn't plan to acknowledge them for the time being, she had no reason to take them away.
Even if they acknowledge each other, they still have their own lives to live and can't be with each other all the time.
"Shushu, what are you thinking about? I called you several times, but you didn't answer." Mo Ze looked at Lin Shushu, who was deep in thought, walked up to her, and asked.
"Oh, did you call me just now? I didn't hear you," Lin Shushu asked innocently.
"I wanted to ask you, when are we leaving?"
"Okay, we'll say goodbye to Xiaojie and the others when they get back tonight, and then we'll leave tomorrow," Lin Shushu decided.
"Since you've made up your mind, why were you so distracted just now?" Mo Ze wondered, recalling Lin Shushu's earlier demeanor.
"I'm just a little worried about Xiaojie and the others," Lin Shushu said, expressing her concerns.
Mo Ze turned her head towards him and said seriously, "Shu Shu, they are not your responsibility, so you don't need to worry about them all the time. Besides, weren't they living well when you didn't know they existed?"
Lin Shushu understood the reasoning, but...
Whether it was out of a desire to atone for her grandmother's sins or her own secret longing for family affection, she felt a protective instinct towards the An siblings.
Seeing that she was still somewhat uneasy, Mo Ze offered a suggestion, "Otherwise, just tell them the truth, so you won't have to worry about it every day."
"Is this a good idea? What if they refuse to forgive me?" Overthinking things, Lin Shushu found herself trapped in her own thoughts.
“If they had any complaints, they wouldn’t have been searching for you for generations. Besides, Xiaojie likes you so much, she would jump for joy if she knew you were her cousin.”
Thinking of the scene Mo Ze described, Lin Shushu laughed out loud. It really was the kind of reaction Xiao Jie might have.
As for An Yuanheng, he is a person who can distinguish right from wrong, and he would not deny his own identity.
After Mo Ze's words of guidance, the fog that had been shrouding Lin Shushu's eyes immediately dissipated, and her mood brightened.
Having two blood relatives is probably not bad, but as for the Lin family, she didn't consider them family at all.
Hmm, thinking about it that way, blood relations don't seem to be that important.
So what have I been struggling with all this time? If we get along, we're relatives; if we don't, we're strangers. It's no big deal.
So when An Yuanheng and his sister returned from the mining area, they saw Lin Shushu waiting for them at the door.
Upon seeing Lin Shushu, An Xiaojie excitedly ran up to her and introduced their day's harvest.
Lin Shushu patiently waited for her to finish speaking, and when they were about to leave and return to their rooms, she called them back.
"Xiao Jie, come with me for a moment."
“Okay.” An Xiaojie agreed happily without asking any questions.
An Yuanheng was somewhat surprised; it seemed as if they had been waiting specifically for them. Nevertheless, he followed the two into Lin Shushu's room.
After the An siblings sat down, Lin Shushu suddenly didn't know how to start the conversation.
Seeing her hesitation, Mo Ze nodded to her, giving her an affirming look.
Lin Shushu understood. She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. This sight left the brother and sister opposite her completely stunned.
"Xiao Jie, Yuan Heng, I told you before that my surname is Lin."
“We know!” An Xiaojie was puzzled as to why Sister Shushu was emphasizing this.
Lin Shushu looked at the brother and sister seriously, "But I never said that my grandmother's surname was An."
"Why is your surname An...?" An Xiaojie didn't react at first, but gradually realized what was going on.
She looked at Lin Shushu in shock, then at her brother, whose face also showed shock.
"Is it what I think?" An Xiaojie asked tentatively, her voice tinged with nervousness.
An Yuanheng also stared intently at Lin Shushu, hoping she would reveal the answer in their hearts.
“That’s right, my grandmother is An Sheng.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the brother and sister opposite her stared at her with their mouths agape. After a long while, they heard An Xiaojie's incredulous voice.
"So, Sister Shushu, you are a descendant of our great-aunt, our...cousin?"
"Yes," she had barely finished speaking when a figure suddenly lunged at her, and Lin Shushu quickly caught it.
"Ahhh, I'm so happy! You really are my sister!" An Xiaojie exclaimed excitedly, automatically ignoring the first word.
"I knew I liked you so much! You're my sister!" An Xiaojie hugged Lin Shushu, expressing her excitement once again. If she had more strength, she might have even stood up and spun around a few times.
Lin Shushu did not refuse and let her hug her.
An Yuanheng looked at the two sisters embracing each other, his eyes reddening. He closed his eyes, trying to stop the tears from falling, "Great-grandfather, great-grandmother, I have found the descendants of my great-aunt. You can rest in peace now."
After the initial excitement subsided, An Xiaojie sat down next to Lin Shushu, clinging to her arm tightly. She hadn't had enough of her new older sister yet.
Lin Shushu looked at An Yuanheng, "Yuanheng, Xiaojie, I want to say to the An family on behalf of my grandmother, I'm sorry!"
Understanding her meaning, An Yuanheng replied, choking back tears, "There's no need to apologize. No one in the An family blames your great-aunt."
Next, both sides shared their childhood experiences, and the An siblings realized that even someone as strong as Sister Shushu had such a difficult childhood.
“Sister Shushu, how could the Lin family be so mean? How could they treat you like this?” An Xiaojie said between sobs.
An Yuanheng, standing to the side, clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the anger in his heart.
Sensing their heartache, Lin Shushu smiled and comforted them, "It's all in the past now, and no one can bully me anymore."
Seeing her confident smile, the An siblings had no doubt about her words. However, An Yuanheng secretly vowed in his heart that he would make the Lin family pay the corresponding price in the future.
Perhaps sensing An Yuanheng's emotions, Lin Shushu did not hide anything, "I am already taking revenge on the Lin family."
Upon hearing her words, An Yuanheng immediately thought of what had happened in the Lin family mining area.
Leaving aside distant matters, the recent news of the Lin family's young master's troubles has been widely circulated, with everyone speculating that the Lin family has offended someone extraordinary. Now it seems that this person is none other than Sister Shushu.
Sure enough, when he looked at Lin Shushu, he saw her nod slightly to him.
