After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

"Ahem!"

Just then, a heavy cough came from outside the courtyard gate.

Linlin jerked away as if pricked by a needle, pushing hard with both hands.

Caught off guard, Yan Yuan was pushed backward, his back hitting the sofa back. Before he could react, Linlin had already turned around, smiling brightly, and said, "Mom and Dad, you're back!"

Lin Zhilan's expression was somewhat complicated.

I can't say whether I'm happy or angry; I'm mainly just a little surprised and shocked, and I can't immediately regulate my emotions.

As for Su Lang's expression, it could only be described as gloomy, his face so black it was almost as if ink could drip from it.

The two returned when Linlin said, "I like to take the initiative." The couple were so shocked by their daughter's words that they stared at each other, speechless. It wasn't until the two started whispering and getting serious that Su Lang finally couldn't help but interrupt.

"Uncle, Aunt..." Yan Yuan stood up and was about to speak when Su Lang interrupted him sharply.

"You come out here!" Su Lang said coldly as she went to the living room.

Linlin quickly caught up with him, "Dad, don't be angry with him, I'm dating him."

Yan Yuan was shocked. He never expected that Linlin would give him a formal title at this time.

After all, she had previously acted as if she was extremely afraid of being discovered by her parents.

Linlin is a responsible girl. She enjoys spending time with Yan Yuan. She was so nervous and scared before because she knew that if she and Yan Yuan were to date, it would definitely cause a huge uproar at home.

Her parents might not blame or criticize her, but they will definitely change their opinion of Yan Yuan.

Yan Yuan has no family left, and she doesn't want her parents to become estranged from him because of her.

She likes Yan Yuan and hopes her parents will like him too.

Su Lang's expression was complicated, and for the first time, he did not grant his daughter's every request.

Lin Zhilan pulled her daughter back, "Daddy just wants to talk to Yan Yuan, he won't be angry, right?"

Lin Zhilan winked at Su Lang.

Su Lang nodded, his face stiff.

Yan Yuan gave Linlin a reassuring look and followed Su Lang into the courtyard.

Lin Zhilan led her daughter to the room, closed the door, and sighed.

Linlin hugged her arm. "Mommy, are you angry with me too?"

"No, it's just..." Lin Zhilan's heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Even though Yan Yuan and his daughter were a couple in the book, Lin Zhilan never intended to match them up. But before she knew it, the two children got together again.

Yan Yuan was older and had a calm personality; Lin Zhilan believed he understood things clearly.

Linlin is still young and has never experienced love. Lin Zhilan is afraid that she will not be able to distinguish between feelings for her brother and feelings for her lover.

"Baby, are you sure you like Yan Yuan?"

Linlin rested her head on her mother's shoulder and said slowly, "I'm sure, Mom. Sometimes I fantasize about my future with him."

Linlin had also thought about this matter for a long time.

She didn't dare tell her mother at the time, but only shared it with Dong Xiaomin.

Dong Xiaomin didn't understand what love was either, but she reminded Linlin, "So many people are pursuing you, are you willing to date other boys like you and Teacher Yan did?"

Linlin's answer was no.

She was devoted to Yan Yuan, and no matter how many people pursued her or how many choices she had, Linlin was only willing to be with him.

Lin Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief, tucked a strand of hair behind her daughter's ear, and asked, "Were you happy when you were dating him?"

"I'm happy," Linlin said with a charming smile, but then immediately pouted, "It's just that sometimes he can be so old-fashioned, I even suspect there's a generation gap between us."

Women dress up for those they want to please. Linlin sometimes wants to dress nicely in front of Yan Yuan, but Yan Yuan only cares about keeping her warm, which is really annoying.

Even though she no longer considers him her sister, Yan Yuan still keeps an eye on her, forbidding her from eating cold or icy foods or staying up late.

Linlin knew that even if she was willful, Yan Yuan couldn't do anything about it.

It's just that Linlin is willing to spoil him.

In "How the Steel Was Tempered," when Paul talks about love and ideals, he says:

"True love should help both parties grow together, not hold each other back."

This is what love looks like.

As for ideals, "The most precious thing a person has is life, and each person only has one life. A person's life should be spent in such a way that when he looks back on the past, he will not regret wasting his years, nor will he be ashamed of having accomplished nothing."

Linlin is fortunate to live in a very happy family. She is striving for her ideals and seems to be finding love.

Linlin sometimes felt apprehensive, as if everything was too good to be true.

Seeing her like this, Lin Zhilan finally felt relieved. "Then go ahead and date. Mom doesn't object. But you must remember, dating isn't a commitment, and even marriage isn't a commitment. This is just your decision at this moment, not a decision for life, understand?"

Spending a lifetime with someone is not an easy thing.

Lin Zhilan didn't want her daughter to be too stubborn; loving yourself before loving others is the way to a lasting relationship.

Linlin wrapped her arms around her mother's neck and laughed, "Sister Manman said the same thing to me."

Lin Zhilan tapped her nose. "Manman is a good girl. You have to listen to her."

"I'm such a good girl," Linlin snuggled into her mother's arms, acting spoiled.

Lin Zhilan hugged her and sighed, "Our baby has grown up too."

"No," Linlin shook her head quickly, "I want to be Mommy's baby forever."

"Okay." Lin Zhilan couldn't be happier that her daughter would always act spoiled and clingy with her.

Suddenly remembering something, Linlin gave her mother a fawning smile. "Mom, Dad won't beat Yan Yuan up, will he?"

Linlin knew that her mother had always been very open-minded, but her father was different; he was also a traditionalist.

Moreover, his father trains every day, so his muscle mass has never decreased. Yan Yuan is now a schoolteacher, and he is quite "frail".

Lin Zhilan smiled and said, "He won't beat you up. Your dad knows what he's doing."

Lin Zhilan felt that Su Lang really should have a good talk with Yan Yuan.

Although she is open-minded and likes Yan Yuan very much, Linlin is her precious child, and some things need to be made clear.

Su Lang stood outside with Yan Yuan for more than ten minutes. Yan Yuan tried to speak several times, but Su Lang interrupted him each time.

Yan Yuan had no choice but to remain silent and wait for Su Lang's decision.

After a long silence, Su Lang finally spoke, "When did you fall in love with Linlin?"

Yan Yuan spoke frankly, "I probably fell for her when my grandfather passed away, but I realized my feelings for her after she went to university."

"You!" Su Lang was furious, glaring at Yan Yuan, almost cursing him as a beast.

Yan Yuan stood there obediently, feeling quite like a beast himself.

"You two should break up. I don't approve of you dating," Su Lang said coldly.

Yan Yuan was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm sorry, Uncle, I can't do it."
