When social terror becomes the favorite of the police

Chapter 284 What to do when your daughter is wronged

Lin's mother nodded silently, but at the same time, she began to worry. The He family was so well-off, would they even be interested in Yan Yan? Would they even look down on their family?

What will happen if my daughter is wronged in the future?
On this day, Lin's mother was especially silent. She nodded in agreement to whatever Lin Xiaoyan asked her to buy, and she rarely refused even very expensive clothes.

Lin Xiaoyan keenly sensed that something was wrong with her mother, but she didn't ask her anything while they were outside.

Back home, Lin's mother took the clothes to her room and carefully hung them up.

Lin Xiaoyan stood by the door, looking at her mother's preoccupied expression, and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Lin's mother looked at her daughter and said, "It's alright."

"Then why aren't you saying anything?"

Lin's mother smiled and said, "Why aren't you saying anything? I've been talking the whole time. I'm fine. You can go do your thing."

Seeing that her mother didn't want to talk about it, Lin Xiaoyan didn't press the matter further.

She went to the living room and waited for her father to come out of the bathroom. She pulled him aside and whispered, "Dad, Mom seems a bit off. Ask her what's wrong later."

Lin's father paused for a moment, then said, "Your mother seems fine, nothing's wrong with her."

Lin Xiaoyan: "Anyway, you should ask her."

Lin's father: "Okay."

Lin's father entered the room, closed the door, looked at his wife who was tidying her clothes, walked to the bedside, and sat down.

"Yan Yan asked me to ask you what's wrong."

Upon hearing this, Lin's mother stopped what she was doing.

After glancing at the closed door, Lin's mother's shoulders slumped, her face full of worry.

I'm worried about Yan Yan...

Lin's mother voiced her concerns, "I didn't know about Xiao He's family situation before, I only knew that they were well-off, but today I found out that Xiao He's family is not just well-off, they are incredibly well-off!"
Everyone says that women should marry down or marry up, but I'm afraid Yan Yan will be looked down upon in the future..."

Lin's father knew his wife was worried, so he sighed and said, "Don't think about it anymore. Let's talk about it after we meet Xiao He's family."

If Xiao He's family...

"Then I'll have a proper talk with my daughter."

Lin's mother nodded weakly, "This is the only way."

That evening, when Lin Xiaoyan saw her mother again, she found that her mother had returned to normal, and she couldn't help but secretly give her father a thumbs up.

Mr. Lin gave his daughter a proud wink.

Fan Lanlan arrived at this time, and everyone ate and chatted.

Lin Hao hadn't returned yet; he got off work too late. Considering his daughter-in-law couldn't wait too long, Lin's mother prepared dinner for them to eat first.

Then he left some for his son, put it in a rice bucket to keep it warm, and waited for his daughter-in-law to take it back when she returned.

"I saw a missing person notice on my phone today. Sigh, I wonder if it's because I have a child now."

I used to not feel anything when I saw those videos about searching for missing people.

Seeing that video today made my heart ache.

Fan Lanlan said with a pained expression.

Upon hearing what her sister-in-law said, Lin Xiaoyan asked, "I also saw a video this morning of a three-year-old girl who went missing in front of her house. Is it that one?"

Fan Lanlan nodded immediately, "Yes, that's the one. It was lost yesterday afternoon and hasn't been found yet."

Lin's father: "Did you lose it at the doorstep?"

Fan Lanlan: "Yes! And they disappeared in just two or three minutes!"

Upon hearing this, Lin's mother asked, "Isn't there any CCTV footage?" "I don't know, but we called the police, and they've been searching, but they haven't found any leads."

"Sigh, it's been a whole day and night. That little girl is so cute. It would be so pitiful if she had been kidnapped."

Whenever this topic comes up, Fan Lanlan feels sad and wants to cry.

As she said this, tears began to fall from Fan Lanlan's eyes.

Everyone was both amused and exasperated upon seeing this.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly handed a tissue to her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. Maybe we'll find that child tonight. Technology is so advanced now, there are surveillance cameras everywhere!"

Lin's mother also said, "Yes, things are different now than before. In the past, if a child was lost, they could never be found again."

There are surveillance cameras everywhere now, they'll definitely be able to find it.

Lin's father held a different view, saying, "I don't think the chances of finding it are very high."

Just as Fan Lanlan was about to stop crying, she burst into tears again upon hearing this.

Lin Xiaoyan: ...

Nancy, who remained silent to the side: ...

Lin's mother glared at Lin's father and said, "Eat your food!"

Lin's father shoved the object away, "What's wrong? I'm telling the truth. Think about it, it's been so long, what child trafficker would stay in the same spot after abducting a child?"

Fan Lanlan wiped away her tears, her voice slightly choked as she said, "Sigh, I don't know why, but whenever I think of that little girl, I can't help but feel heartbroken and sad."

Lin Xiaoyan looked at her sister-in-law, then at her belly, and said, "It's probably because of pregnancy hormones."

Lin's mother sighed and said, "That's one aspect. Another aspect is that you've become a mother yourself now. There are some things you can't empathize with when you're not a mother."

Once you become a mother, your heart will be completely devoted to your child.

Fan Lanlan listened and nodded, "Yes, I used to just swipe past these kinds of videos, but now I think if my child were lost, I would be heartbroken."

"Sigh, I hope that little girl can be found, and I hope all children can grow up safely with their parents."

After dinner, Lin Xiaoyan and Nanxi went out together to take Fan Lanlan home.

Looking at her sister-in-law's belly, Lin Xiaoyan asked, "Sister-in-law, you're in your late pregnancy now, are you having trouble walking?"

Fan Lanlan rubbed her stomach, "It's uncomfortable, sigh, not only is my stomach uncomfortable, but my pubic bone is also uncomfortable."

"Moreover, I can't sleep well at night, I always feel the urge to go to the toilet, and I can go to the toilet five or six times a night..."

When it comes to these things, Fan Lanlan has endless things to say. Before, she was alone at home, and her husband was not by her side. She had no one to confide in when she was feeling unwell or upset.

I'll talk to my husband about it, but I'm worried about how hard he works.

I told my mother-in-law… well, she was too embarrassed to say it.

When she told her mother, her mother only offered words of comfort, saying that all women go through this, and sighed.

"Sister-in-law, you've worked so hard, but just bear with it a little longer, you'll be able to unload soon!" Lin Xiaoyan comforted her.

Fan Lanlan smiled helplessly, "That's what I'm thinking now too. I'm hoping to be born then, so I can turn over however I want when I'm sleeping!"

You don't need to consciously sleep on your left side; you can sleep on your right side whenever you want…

Lin Xiaoyan saw her sister-in-law to the door and said with a smile, "Soon, soon you can sleep wherever you want!"

Fan Lanlan smiled and nodded, "I hope so. I just hope he (or she) will be well-behaved after he (or she) is born."

After seeing her sister-in-law into the house, Lin Xiaoyan and Nanxi left. As they walked along the road, she sighed, "I never knew pregnancy was so hard. I always thought it was the happiest thing!"
