Chapter 420: Mu Ning’s Visit

Mu Ning drove the wheelchair slowly into Lin Yin’s ward.
Lin Yin’s ward was worlds apart from hers.
Her ward was cold and empty. It was still the same as before. If it weren’t for the person lying on the bed, she wouldn’t have been able to tell that there was a patient inside.
No one had ever sat on the chair beside her bed.
However, it was different with Lin Yin. There were several bouquets of flowers, and baskets of fruits were piled in the corner. There were cut fruits beside the bed, and there was even a selfie of that narcissist Mu Ran.
On the table beside her, there were all kinds of snacks and toys to relieve her boredom. Mu Ning did not have to think to know that this must have been obtained by her unruly third brother.
Lin Yin saw that Mu Ning had been sized up the moment she entered and did not interrupt. When Mu Ning was done looking and her gaze landed on her, Lin
Yin asked, “Is the injury on your leg better?”
Mu Ning’s clear eyes were smiling as she said gently, “I’m much better. It’s all thanks to the medicine you begged for me that day. Otherwise, I might have died there that day.”
Although Mu Ning thanked her, Lin Yin felt that there was something wrong with Mu Ning’s tone when she said the word ‘died’, but she didn’t know what was wrong.
Before Lin Yin could speak, Mu Ning continued, “My brother and the others know that you saved me, so they’re very grateful to you. You should have seen them in the past two days, right? They’ll definitely accompany you these few days and help me repay you for saving my life.”
Lin Yin was a little surprised. She had not seen any other man other than the Mu family’s three brothers and Lu Ming these few days, so she asked in confusion, “Your brother?”
Mu Ning smiled sweetly. “That’s right. Mu Heng is my elder brother, Mu Xiao is my second brother, and Mu Ran is my third brother. My name is Mu Ning, and I’m the fourth child of the Mu family.”
Mu Nings words made Lin Yin’s expression change. She asked, “Why haven’t I heard that Mu Heng and the others have a sister?”
Mu Ning smiled. “The people outside really don’t know about this. There was indeed a daughter of the Mu family back then. She was the fourth, but she was killed. However, Brother and the others think that Sister isn’t dead yet and have been looking for her.”
“Later, in order to treat Mom’s illness, my family adopted me. For the sake of my safety, my family never revealed my ident.i.ty outside. They were afraid that I would be killed by evil people like that sister I’ve never met.”
Mu Ning made a silent gesture and said, “So, don’t tell anyone about my ident.i.ty! You can’t even tell my brother and the others, or they’ll be worried about me. It won’t be good if they attack you to protect my ident.i.ty. Besides, they’ll be angry and punish me by not allowing me to come out to play.”
When Mu Ning said this, the smile on her face did not disappear for a moment. It was obvious that she looked like a doted on little princess.
Lin Yin grabbed the blanket tightly with both hands. Blue veins gradually appeared on the back of her fair hands. She felt a little uncomfortable and said in disbelief, “So, they adopted you and replaced their original biological daughter, right?”
Mu Ning pouted slightly and said, “Not really. Mom and Dad still think of Sister occasionally. It’s just that you know that kinship is acc.u.mulated over time.
Without spending a long time together, it’s not easy to nurture a relationship. It’s inevitable that it’ll fade a little, so they rarely mention Sister now. Dad and brothers rarely mention Sister in front of Mom.”
As Mu Ning spoke, her gaze suddenly met Lin Yin’s eyes. She smiled and said, “Otherwise, I wouldn’t be the eldest daughter of the Mu Family but the second daughter. It wouldn’t be the fourth child, but the fifth. Actually, I think it’s good to be the fifth child, but Grandma feels that we can’t let a dead person occupy the position. It’s inauspicious. Brother, Dad, and Mom have tacitly agreed, so I can only accept it. However, I still feel that I’ve let Sister down.”
Lin Yin lowered her head and asked in a small voice, “What will you do if the
Mu family’s biological daughter doesn’t die and comes back?”
Lin Yin’s question made a sharp glint flash across Mu Ning’s eyes. Then, she said in a low mood, “Then I’ll naturally be very happy. After all, I’ll have an older sister who will dote on me. However, I hope that she can get along with me. Otherwise, you know that my family dotes on me as their biological daughter. If Sister and I don’t get along, I’m afraid that my family will protect me and hurt Sister’s heart. That won’t be good..”
