"Lin Ruoyi!"
Seeing this na, Lin Jie imdiately understood why Lin Miao was acting a bit strange, because it was the na of their mother.
After experiencing the incident of being drugged and having his marrow stolen, Lin Jie had lost all illusions and expectations regarding his missing parents. He said lightly, "Miaomiao, it's just a common na."
"There are so many people in China, if not a thousand, at least seven or eight hundred have the sa na. It's very normal to co across one by chance!"
"Oh..."
Lin Miao replied with disappointnt. She bit her lip, sowhat unwilling to give up, and said, "Brother, last Saturday, the number of people watching your assessnt live stream reached over a hundred thousand at its peak. There are also so reports about you online; you are sowhat famous now."
"Brother, do you think they might have seen it?"
"What if they have seen it, and what if they haven't?"
Lin Jie advised, "If there was even the slightest bit of care in their hearts, we wouldn't have had no news for so many years. After all, it would be very easy for her to find us."
Seeing Lin Miao's face beco even more gloomy, Lin Jie knew she was feeling bad inside and comforted her, "The hardest tis are over, aren't we doing well now?"
"In the future, we will do even better, Miaomiao. Don't keep fantasizing about such intangible things."
"I know, brother!" Lin Miao replied weakly.
The topic was a bit heavy and very sensitive, so Li Ting didn't know what to say.
Seeing the topic co to an end, she quickly said, "Miaomiao, we're going to Tianya Haijiao for vacation; it's as hot there as sumr. Tomorrow afternoon, after your vocal lesson, let's prepare early and go buy swimsuits and sunscreen together, okay?"
"Okay!" Lin Miao responded without much enthusiasm.
Lin Jie first drove Li Ting ho, then turned back to Xiangtai Apartnt. It was already close to ten o'clock at night.
After a busy day, he felt a bit tired and decided to take a hot shower and rest early.
"Brother!"
Lin Jie turned around to see Lin Miao, who had just said goodnight, holding Lele, and calling him again. Seeing her hesitating to speak, he asked, "What's up? Is there sothing you can't tell ?"
Lin Miao stamred, "Brother, I think... I think... what if that person isn't just a nasake and is actually her?"
"Maybe she saw your news online and suddenly wanted to co and see us, who knows."
Seeing her expression, Lin Jie knew that if this issue wasn't clarified, this fellow definitely wouldn't sleep well tonight.
Lin Jie sighed and said, "Then let's find out together whether this person is really a nasake!"
He opened the signature book and found the na "Lin Ruoyi" once again. This ti, Lin Jie noticed the number six hundred following the na.
This number was one of the lowest in this signature book.
This number alone indicated that this person was definitely not their long-lost mother but just soone going with the flow.
Lin Jie understood that this evidence wouldn't convince Lin Miao. He needed more solid evidence.
He noticed that the few nas around this one seed vaguely familiar.
But today, Lin Jie had seen so many people that it was impossible to rember so many nas.
He flipped back a page and finally saw so very familiar nas, Tao Taqing, Qi Xingfen, and Chen Lan, imdiately realizing that they were all from Donghua Hospital.
Lin Jie found Chen Lan's number and dialed it on speaker.
After a few rings, the call was connected, and Chen Lan's sowhat weary voice ca through, "Dr. Lin, hello!"
Hearing her voice, Lin Jie suddenly rembered sothing and asked, "Dr. Chen, last ti you ntioned getting married this Spring Festival; have you set the exact date?"
Chen Lan's voice sounded cheerful over the phone, "Thank you for rembering. The wedding is set for the twenty-eighth of the twelfth lunar month, but we're going back to his hotown for it."
"The timing is special, and it's in a small city far from Binhai, so we're not inviting you or any friends from Binhai to the wedding."
Lin Jie smiled and said, "I may not attend the wedding, but I'll definitely send a red envelope."
Before she could respond, he continued, "Dr. Chen, I have another question: do you have a colleague nad Lin Ruoyi?"
"Lin Ruoyi? Wait a mont!"
Chen Lan was silent for a while on the phone, seemingly looking through so information.
After a while, her voice ca through, "Yes, there is one. She's the head nurse in cardiac surgery. Do you need to reach her for sothing?"
Hearing Chen Lan's response, Lin Jie knew that she wasn't familiar with this Lin Ruoyi at all, but to put Lin Miao at ease, he had to keep asking!
Lin Jie made up a lie casually, saying, "I saw this na in the guest signature book, and it reminded of soone nad Lin Ruoyi who helped many years ago; she should be around forty now."
"I just wanted to confirm if she might be the sa person who once helped !"
Chen Lan enthusiastically said, "I'm not familiar with her, but I have a good relationship with a resident doctor in cardiac surgery. I'll ask that friend for you; hold on a mont!"
After waiting for nearly ten minutes, Chen Lan called back.
"I asked around about Lin Ruoyi's basic info: she's forty-six years old and has worked at the hospital for nearly twenty years. She's kind and provides excellent service to patients."
"Her husband works at the bus company, and they have a daughter and a son. However, her daughter has so special conditions: half of her face was severely burned, and she underwent a plastic surgery which didn't go well."
"My friend also told that she was on duty today and didn't attend your banquet, but sent a red envelope with a colleague. Tomorrow, I could sneak so photos of her for you, if you'd like?"
Lin Jie hurriedly said, "Thank you, but there's no need! The age doesn't match, so it must just be a common na, not the sa person!"
The reason he didn't want photos for final confirmation was that there were no photos of their mother at ho!
Perhaps due to their excessive grief, their grandparents had destroyed all her photos.
The Lin siblings' impression of their mother was just a vague silhouette ford from others' descriptions!
After hanging up Chen Lan's call, he patted Lin Miao's head and said, "You heard it, right? This Lin Ruoyi has worked at Donghua Hospital for nearly twenty years and is forty-six years old. It can't be her; it's just soone with the sa na."
Lin Miao nodded her little head, stood up holding Lele, and said, "I understand, it's not her! Brother, I'm going to sleep now. You should go wash up and rest too!"
Watching her turn and leave, her figure sowhat dejected, Lin Jie could only sigh silently.
The next morning, Lin Jie saw Lin Miao eating breakfast heartily, happily training Lele to sit and lie down. Thinking she had moved past last night's matter, he felt relieved and went to work at Zhujia Port.
