Mrs. Lin glared at her daughter, clearly displeased with what she said. However, she didn't say anything too harsh, just, "What do you know? Now, it's she who owes us, not us owing her. Besides, why did she agree when your father went to ask her? Wasn't it for the sake of being family? No matter what, she's been living so well in the Marquis Mansion all these years under the name of a daughter of the Lin Mansion. Otherwise, do you think she could have lived so well in the Marquis Mansion?"
Lin Qining retorted ungratefully, "Mother makes it sound easy. It's not that simple. Look, she's already acknowledged her biological father. What do we count as now? Don't use the family name as a pretext anymore. If you want to find her, just do it. Spare your dignity."
