Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1349 - 191, Adding Fuel to the Flames (One More Update)

How could Lady Liu not understand? It seemed that her suspicions were indeed true, Lin Wei and Chen Ruochu actually did have feelings for each other.

Anyway, things had already developed to this point, Lin Yuan decided to just lay it all out. Now Lin Wei was almost eleven years old. Lin Yuan herself had met Xia Zheng when she was only twelve. And setting aside Xiao Linzi’s family background, the boy was truly a good person, kind to Lin Wei, and smart and agile to boot. If the two of them got together, he certainly wouldn’t mistreat Lin Wei.

Taking Lin Wei’s already cold hands, Lin Yuan skillfully pushed her down to the ground.

With a thud, Lin Wei knelt down, her knees hurting fiercely, but she didn’t make a sound.

Lady Liu, however, felt a twinge of heartache and her eyes kept scanning Lin Wei’s knees, wanting to help her stand up, wanting to go over and soothe the pain, but then she thought about how this child had something going on and didn’t confide in her own mother, and her heart didn’t feel like forgiving her.

Lady Liu’s conflicted expression was all caught by Lin Yuan, who felt amused deep inside; indeed, playing the suffering card was the most effective strategy with Lady Liu. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Since Lin Wei had already knelt down, she and Xiao He naturally couldn’t remain standing. They exchanged glances, then knelt down together in front of Lady Liu, breaking her heart even more.

"Mother, your daughter has wronged you. I knew about older sister and Xiao Linzi but didn’t tell you, it’s my fault. Mother, please calm down. Don’t be so angry that you hurt yourself," Lin Yuan, who had been through the trials of working in a big hotel, started with an apology before even beginning to explain, which quelled Lady Liu’s anger considerably.

After a pinch on her waist by Lin Yuan, Lin Wei’s body shook, and she raised her tear-stricken face, her lips quivering as she apologized to Lady Liu, "Mother, it’s my fault, I have embarrassed you, sob, sob, I’m sorry..."

Lin Wei was truly heartbroken and started to cry as she spoke.

Watching her daughter cry breathlessly, Lady Liu’s eyes reddened as well. Among her three daughters, it was Lin Wei who was closest to her and was the most delicately thoughtful, always quick to detect Lady Liu’s concerns.

Yet, it was her most dearly attached daughter who, after having a beloved, didn’t tell her own mother. And now, it seemed she was the only person left in the dark. How could she not be hurt?

Seeing the three daughters kneeling on the ground before her, listening to Lin Wei’s anguished crying, Lady Liu couldn’t bear it any longer and signaled for them to stand.

The three daughters, however, wouldn’t stand up. If Lin Yuan had harbored the intention to play the suffering strategy at first, by now she genuinely felt sorry for Lady Liu.

Seeing that they wouldn’t get up, Lady Liu didn’t insist. She dried the tears at the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, choking back sobs for a good while before she finally spoke, "Mother isn’t embarrassed, mother is just heartbroken. Weiwei, we are mother and daughter; why didn’t you tell me when you had someone you liked in your heart? Why did you feel the need to hide it? Do you think your mother wouldn’t agree?"

"Think about your eldest sister and Xia Zheng. Although mother was initially suspicious of Xia Zheng’s background, seeing his sincere affection for your eldest sister, I naturally blessed them. Weiwei, do you see your mother as someone unsympathetic and unaccommodating?"

"It’s not like that, Mother, it’s not you, it’s me, I was too embarrassed, embarrassed to tell you," Lin Wei clumsily shook her head, her face smudged with tears and snot.

If anyone could understand Lin Wei’s feelings, it was Lin Yuan. A young girl experiencing the dawn of feelings would naturally be much more coy about these matters. If it hadn’t been for Lady Jiang’s revelation today, Lin Wei likely would have waited until her relationship with Chen Ruochu was more stable before telling her mother.

"I, I was thinking that we’re still young, it’s too early to talk about these things now. Mother, I didn’t mean to hide it from you deliberately, I really didn’t!"

Listening to Lin Wei’s earnest explanations, Lady Jiang’s heart felt somewhat lighter. She adored her daughter and understood her; either she wouldn’t speak at all, or if she did, she wouldn’t lie.

"Alright, all of you stand up. Kneeling on the ground, crying and wiping your tears, if outsiders heard, they might think I’m beating you!" Lady Liu wiped away the last of her tears with the handkerchief, her emotions having settled down by now.

Lin Yuan and the others looked at each other and then stood up. When she had knelt down, Lin Wei truly banged her knee hard, and her legs were a bit wobbly as she stood. Lin Yuan and Xiao He each took a side and helped her up.
