Something Happened

However, this thought only flashed through her mind for a moment.

Right now, nothing was more important than their expressions of longing.

Upon seeing the grave, Mu Fang was already sobbing uncontrollably, and the others joined in, weeping over the pain and sorrow of their separation...

Old Mrs. Lu and the others were deeply moved; seeing them cry, tears streamed down their faces uncontrollably, and they began to weep as well. This made Lin Nannan, who wasn’t crying, stand out.

Lin Nannan stated she didn’t want to cry!

Back when she had to deceive Jiang Xiaomeng, she had used eye irritation to force tears to make herself look pitiful. But now, if she were asked to cry, she genuinely couldn’t produce any tears.

"Master Mu," Lin Nannan said, seeing that they were crying uncontrollably, and she spoke up at the right moment, "When Master passed away, he regretted not knowing your whereabouts. If he knew from beyond the grave that you are all well, that the Mu family is prospering and everyone is safe, he would surely be overjoyed."

Lin Shuang, her eyes red and choked with sobs, said, "When Father was taken away, we all thought we would see each other again in this lifetime. Who would have thought that this separation would last a lifetime!"

They had made careful arrangements, but something went wrong, leading to a lifetime of regret—they didn’t even get to see their father before he passed away.

What could Lin Nannan do? She could only rely on the original host’s memories and continue to comfort them: "When Master passed away, although he had regrets, he was at peace and didn’t suffer much from his illness..."

She could only focus on the positive to avoid stirring up more sorrow for the Mu family.

A child wishing to care for their parents but being unable to due to their passing is one of the saddest things in the world.

The Old Village Head added, affirming that what Lin Nannan said was true, and this finally managed to console the distraught Mu family.

After paying their respects, the Mu family began discussing the matter of moving the grave. This decision was ultimately theirs to make, but they were unsure if they had truly found the right person this time. They’d made no preparations, so further discussion was needed. They were debating whether to stay to move the grave immediately and then leave, or come back another time...

While the Mu family was discussing this with the Old Village Head and others, there was a stir in the mountains. A group of people in military uniforms suddenly appeared. The villagers didn’t react, but the Mu family looked on in surprise.

Lin Nannan frowned; she felt something was off. Especially since she had already warned them beforehand—these people shouldn’t have shown themselves.

But now, they had appeared suddenly, and they weren’t here for the Mu family. Her heart dropped, and she felt that something had happened.

"What’s going on?" she stopped the leader to ask.

These people had been stationed here originally because of Lin Nannan, so they all knew her.

When they saw her here, they weren’t surprised but instead whispered a few things to her, causing Lin Nannan’s expression to change.

She immediately said, "I’ll go with you. Wait for me a moment!" Not waiting for a reply, she turned to the others and said, "I have something urgent to take care of. Dad, Mom, please help me host everyone..."

Without waiting for the Mu family to respond, she hurried off with the soldiers, leaving the Mu family looking at each other in confusion and the Lu family deeply worried.

"Did something happen?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked Lu Fang in a low voice.

Lu Fang shook his head. They never interfered with their daughter-in-law’s affairs, so it was hard to say for sure.

Lin Nannan’s sudden departure interrupted everyone’s discussion, and in the end, they had to change venues and return to the Lu house.

Zhou Cuiwei was holding Lu Dudu and playing in the yard. Seeing everyone return except Lin Nannan, she asked about it. Upon learning that Lin Nannan had left with the military personnel, she asked with deep concern, "Did something happen?"
