Lin Yin’s emotions instantly became complicated. What should she do if Wei Ji really got close to her intentionally?
Wei Ji was someone she treated as family and someone who had been with her for several years.
However, the Mu family was her biological family. She would not watch Wei Ji use her to hurt the Mu family.
Lin Yin stopped her messy thoughts. The matter was not clear yet, so it was better not to come to such a conclusion. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding?
Besides, if the Fu Family really took it to heart, Wei Ji and Wei Xuan wouldn’t have lived so miserably all these years. Wei Ji was even crippled and Wei Xuan became a fool.
Lin Yin tried her best to convince herself, but she still kept her guard up and asked Sun Biao to secretly investigate Wei Ji.
After instructing Sun Biao, Lin Yin asked for Lu Ming and Wei Ji’s location. When she arrived at the ward, she saw Shen Yu helping Wei Ji sit on the bed.
Lin Yin asked Lu Ming, “What did the doctor say?”
Lu Ming walked closer to Lin Yin and replied gently, “The doctor said that it’s nothing serious. He’ll recover after resting for a few days.”
“That’s good.” Lin Yin nodded slightly, then turned to Wei Ji and said guiltily, “I’m sorry, you got hurt because of me.”
Everyone knew that Yue Chi’s kick in the court was clearly because Lin Yin vented her anger on Wei Ji.
Wei Ji shook his head and said gently, “The person who kicked me was Wei Ji. It has nothing to do with you, Yinyin.”
Lu Ming, who had been ignored, pursed his lips and shot an arrow at Wei Ji, who was like a weak little rabbit.
Lin Yin turned to look at Lu Ming and said, “Little Uncle, I suddenly feel a little hungry. Can you go out and buy me something to eat?”
Lu Ming was about to ask Shen Yu to go, but he was worried about letting Lin Yin and Wei Ji be alone. Lin Yin looked at Lu Ming with her big watery eyes and said, “You know what I like to eat, I would be best if you were to buy it.”
There was no seduction in Lin Yin’s eyes. Even so, Lu Ming felt that he was in a daze. He subconsciously nodded and agreed. Then, he turned around and left the ward, thinking happily that Lin Yin really trusted him.
However, just as he reached the door, he heard Lin Yin’s voice continue. “Buy two portions. Wei Ji will have the same as me.”
His good mood instantly crashed. Even his voice in response to Lin Yin was muffled, with a hint of unhappiness.
After Lu Ming left, Lin Yin sat beside Wei Ji. She chatted casually as she peeled an orange for Wei Ji. “If your parents were still around, they would probably be here to see you now.”
Lin Yin looked at Wei Ji with pity in her eyes. There was no abnormality in Wei Ji’s expression. He only smiled bitterly and said, “Why are you saying this? I’m already used to it after so many years.”
Lin Yin only nodded slightly and asked, “Wei Ji, have you thought of avenging your parents? I heard that your parents were killed by the other two branches of the Wei Family. Is that true?”
Wei Ji paused, as if he didn’t expect Lin Yin to say that. After being stunned for a moment, he shook his head and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I don’t have the ability. I’m a cripple myself and don’t have any strength. It’s simply a fool’s dream for me to take revenge.”
“What if someone says they want to help you?” Lin Yin asked, her gaze fixed on Wei Ji’s face.
Wei Ji asked with uncertainty, “Someone help me? Does Yinyin mean that you want to help me?”
The expression on Wei Ji’s face was impeccable, as if he had really compromised with fate.
Lin Yin smiled. Her expression was light, but her eyes were firm. “If you want, I’ll help you.”
She could take back what Wei Ji wanted for him as long as he did not hurt her family.
Lin Yin’s words were like a warm light that shone through Wei Ji’s skin and onto his mottled and terrifying heart.
The warmth invaded the crack, making Wei Ji’s heart ache.
Wei Ji had mixed feelings. He only asked in a low voice, “Why?”
Lin Yin said calmly, “Because you’re as important as my family.”
Wei Ji was shocked by Lin Yin’s words. He had never known that Lin Yin would side him with his family. He still muttered in disbelief, “Why?”
He wanted to ask Lin Yin why. They had only known each other for a few months. What right did he have to be treated like this by Lin Yin?
