170 Her Background
“Little Yin, come here.”
When Lin Yin heard Mu Xiao’s words, she stood up and walked to his side. The figures of the two of them were reflected in the mirror.
“Little Yin, don’t you think you’re a little like me?” Mu Xiao looked at Lin Yin in the mirror and realized where her familiar feeling came from.
He had never thought about it herself. Lin Yin did not like to smile as much as Mu Xiao, but now, it seemed that their facial features were 50 to 60% similar.
Lin Yin was also a little surprised. She looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly felt a little unfamiliar. She didn’t know if it was because of Mu Xiao’s words, but Lin Yin felt that she was indeed a little like Mu Xiao.
“Brother Mu Xiao is so good-looking. It’s a good thing that I look like you,” Lin Yin said jokingly, but she noticed Mu Xiao’s increasingly serious expression.
“Little Yin, where have you been living before you were brought back by the Su Family?”
Lin Yin thought for a moment and said, “It’s the innermost slum in the western suburbs. Although the environment is a little bad, it’s easier to live there than in the Su Family.”
Mu Xiao looked at the girl in front of him with heartache. What kind of experience could make her speak about these sad pasts so casually?
“What’s wrong, Brother Mu Xiao?” Lin Yin asked worriedly as she looked at Mu Xiao’s increasingly serious expression.
“It’s fine. Go to the set quickly. Little Ran is still waiting for you.” Mu Xiao composed himself and sent Lin Yin to the entrance of the Mu family. He watched as the driver sent Lin Yin away before slowly walking back to his room.
Mu Xiao took out the phone in his pocket and dialed a number.
“Wen Yu, how has Aunt been recently?”
Wen Yu was a little surprised to receive Mu Xiao’s call. His second cousin was usually very cold.
“I’m fine. My mother is still the same. She has a bad temper, but she’s in good health.”
“That’s good. I’m back in the country. I’ll visit Aunt and Uncle another day.” Mu Xiao was a little curious about the past and wanted to verify it with his aunt. After all, his mother’s best friend in the past was his aunt, Mu Yao.
“Sure. My parents will definitely be very happy that Second Cousin can come.” Wen Yu had always been afraid of Mu Xiao. Among his brothers, Mu Xiao was the hardest to see through. Although he looked gentle, he was even scarier than Mu Heng when he was really angry.
Mu Xiao hung up and couldn’t help but look forward to it. If Lin Yin was really his sister, would his mother recover a little?
Thinking of what had happened in the past, Mu Xiao had a headache. His sister’s accident was undoubtedly the biggest sorrow of the entire family.
His mother was still mentally unstable because of his sister’s departure. His father had been looking for her murderer for so many years, but there had been no results.
If Lin Yin was really his sister, then what happened back then would probably be even more complicated.
Mu Xiao did not dare to think too much about it. He planned to go to his aunt’s house this weekend to ask and see if there were any new discoveries. If his sister was not dead, then the direction they were investigating back then was completely wrong.
After Lin Yin left the Mu family, the driver quickly sent her to the set where Mu Ran was filming.
Lin Yin thought of the note Mu Ran had written to her and felt a little complicated. How should she explain it to Brother Mu Ran? Although she didn’t hate him, she really didn’t have any other feelings for him.
Mu Ran was resting. When she saw Lin Yin coming over, he welcomed her happily, but he realized that Lin Yin was deliberately keeping a distance from him.
“Brother Mu Ran.”
Lin Yin obviously had something to say. Mu Ran felt that she was a little strange and asked, “What’s wrong? Did you bring it over?”
Lin Yin placed the amulet in Mu Ran’s hand and looked around. She said softly, “Brother Mu Ran, you don’t actually want me to get the amulet, do you?”
Mu Ran didn’t know how Lin Yin saw through her. She smiled in embarrassment and explained, “Actually, I’m bored on the set alone. Little Yin, if you’re not busy, come over and accompany me.”
Afraid that outsiders would hear their conversation, Lin Yin closed the distance between them and whispered, “Brother Mu Ran, I saw the note, but I’m sorry.”
Mu Ran was confused by Lin Yin’s words. She widened her eyes in confusion and asked, “A note? Why are you apologizing to me?”
“You’re really good. It’s just that…”
Before Lin Yin could finish, she was interrupted by Mu Ran. “Wait, I just asked you to come to the set. It’s fine if you don’t want to come, Little Yin. You don’t have to feel so burdened.”
Lin Yin felt that the conversation between the two of them seemed to be on different channels. After thinking for a while, she pulled Mu Ran to an empty corner and took out the note from her pocket.
“I really can’t accept this.”
