“I don’t believe you. You lied to me. You love her more than me, and you like her more than me.” Lin Xue retorted loudly, looking a little crazy.

She did not feel that she had done anything wrong. She just wanted to snatch back her love. As long as Lin Ran was gone, everything could return to normal. She was still her parents’ most beloved daughter and her brother’s most beloved sister.

Seeing his sister like this, Lin Ming did not feel good either. However, he could not just watch as his sister took the wrong path, so he still had to persuade her and say what needed to be said.

For this reason, he walked into the room and came in front of Lin Xue. He touched her head and said, “Xue, you silly girl. Why would you think that way? You are related to me by blood and Ran is just a relative.”

“Really?” Lin Xue didn’t believe it. If it was really as her brother said, why were they so good to Lin Ran?

“Of course it’s true. Would I lie to you? We’re good to Ran because we pity her. Think about it. She lost her parents at such a young age and has no one to dote on her. Isn’t she very pitiful?”

“She’s quite pitiful, but what does it have to do with me? Why should she take away my love just because she’s pitiful? I don’t care. I don’t like her. In this family, it’s impossible for us to coexist. I know what you mean by saying these words. You want me to compromise and let her come back to live, right? Let me tell you, I won’t ever agree to it. Unless you don’t want me anymore.”

“Xue, why don’t you understand? It’s not that Ran has to live in our house since she has her own home. It’s just that she’s young and her parents are dead. If she lives alone, she might get into some accident. No matter what, she’s still your cousin. How could you stand by and let that happen to her, right?”

“I don’t care. I’m just an insensible girl. I know you’ve stopped liking me and only care about her. Then go find her. Why bother about me? I’ve already said my piece. It’s impossible for us to get along peacefully in the future. If you don’t want me as your sister, you can bring her back to stay anytime.”

After saying this, Lin Xue went back under the blanket angrily and ignored Lin Ming.

Lin Ming looked at his unreasonable sister. He was angry and frustrated. He felt that his sister had been spoiled rotten by them. It seemed like he had to have a good talk with his parents. He had to think of a way to change his sister’s temper. Otherwise, she would easily cause trouble for the family.

At the foot of the mountain, Lin Ran took out her keys and opened the door. After three months of not living here, the furniture was covered in dust.

Ever since her parents passed away, she had never returned. Firstly, she was afraid of being reminded of her parents, and secondly, she was too timid to come back.

Unlike the host, Lin Ran was not afraid of living alone. Compared to living alone, she hated living under someone else’s roof, even if the other party was her uncle and they treated her well. Besides, living under someone else’s roof was not as comfortable as living in her own house. Even if she could live in luxury, nothing could compare to her own doghouse.

Lin Ran carried her blanket into her room, lifted the oil paper covering the bed, and put down the blanket for the time being. After putting down the blanket, she walked around the courtyard to see if there were any snakes or stray cats and dogs.

Fortunately, although this courtyard was remote, it was still clean. Not to mention cats and dogs, there was not even a snake in sight.

After making sure that there were no pests and animals in the compound, Lin Ran began to clean up. Seeing a well in the corner of the courtyard, Lin Ran fetched some water.
