Returning to the Lin family, I looked at my palm again; the will to be reborn had weakened somewhat. When people try everything to return to the past but cannot, some will fight back desperately, like Lin Yan.
When pushed to a certain point and thinking of counterattacking, gradually gaining a sense of victory, the thought of rebirth would slowly disappear.
I closed my palm. If that’s the case, it might not be a bad thing.
However, things were not as smooth as Lin Yan had imagined. The previous second wife would have hesitated and made a choice, but the current second wife was a strong-willed person who didn’t care about public opinion.
I watched Lin Yan’s expression with interest. Since the last time she caught me being “molested” by Li Si at the inn, she had become less subtle in her demeanor, though still appearing gentle and uninvolved in family matters.
“The second mother must be possessed by an evil spirit,” Lin Yan sipped her tea, looking like a strategist. “If it were just an ordinary small-town dispute, it would be understandable for her to refuse on behalf of her sister. But for big families like the Qin and Wang families, she actually refuses and turns a deaf ear to outside gossip.”
I didn’t respond, quietly drinking my tea. Tea brewed with spring water was indeed different, sweet and refreshing.
When Lin Ran rushed over in anger, I had already finished a pot of tea. As soon as she appeared, Lin Yan immediately smiled, “Big sister, what’s wrong?”
“Don’t give me that fake compassion!” Lin Ran cursed before even standing still. “You’re all bad people, colluding with those suitors to bully me!”
Lin Yan frowned slightly and asked, “How did the suitors offend you?
Weren’t they proposing to the second sister?”
Lin Ran was almost in tears, sitting angrily on a stone bench. “That second mother, I don’t know what’s gotten into her. She says that since the elder sister is not yet married, how can the younger sister marry first? The matchmaker immediately understood and ran to Father, suggesting he find a husband for me.”
Lin Yan was stunned. “Father agreed?”
