Chapter 4 GOING BACK TO CHINA PART 4
Xue Lin caught the train in time and looked for her seat. Just as she was about to sit down, a kid ran towards her and bumped into her. Xue Lin was startled and looked down to see the mischievous kid. It was a five years old girl with two pigtails on both sides of her head. She was wearing a pink dress and the same colored shoe. She looked lovely. But not to Xue Lin. She wasn’t good at handling kids. Her body steeled seeing the kid hugging her leg. The child looked up and grinned at her. She gave her a stiff smile in reply.
A woman hurriedly came forward and took the child away from her. She bowed and apologized three times.
"It’s fine." Xue Lin said. She thought if she didn’t say anything that girl would ask for an apology repeatedly. She sat down after putting her luggage beside her. She took a book from her handbag and started to read. It took her ten hours to reach her destination. Xue Lin grabbed her luggage and pulled it forward.
Yinchuan is the capital of the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, China, and historically it was the former capital of the Western Xia Empire of the Tanguts. Facing the Yellow River in the east, Yinchuan enjoys beautiful natural scenery and favorable conditions for agriculture and has long earned the fame of a "River Side City in the Northwest" and "Home to Fish and Rice".

Xue Lin smiled and was excited to see her old town. "It seems like nothing has changed. But there are so many things that I’ve never seen before." She pulled her luggage and walked into the familiar town she grew up in. Her house was far from here but she decided to stroll around.
In forty minutes, she finally reached the place that was once her home. She gazed at the old house for a while before striding towards it. She stood in front of the house and knocked on the door.
"Coming!" Someone said from inside. The familiar voice made her heartache. She controlled her expression.
The door was opened and a middle-aged woman looked at Xue Lin. Her face and body size were exactly like Xue Lin. Her eyes grew wide in disbelief. She reached out her hand and touched Xue Lin’s tender face. "Oh my God! Xiao Lin, it’s you!" She turned around and screamed, "Hey dear, come and look who came back." She couldn’t contain her happiness and excitement.
Xue Lin frowned and moved away from her. For some reason, seeing that woman’s face made her feel that she ate something tasteless. It wasn’t that the woman did something wrong, but she just felt that way.
A sixty years old middle man came forward and saw Xue Lin. His eyes held a bottle of emotions. His lips trembled and were about to say something.
But Xue Lin shut him off. "Aren’t you supposed to be sick? You look fine to me. Why did you lie? Is this the only thing you are good at?"
The man blinked. He didn’t know anything about it. Xue Lin narrowed her eyes and looked at the middle-aged woman beside him. She didn’t need to be a detective to find out who came up with this idea and who helped this woman.
Xue Lin sneered. "You are as disgusting as ever."
The woman looked hurt. "How can you speak to your mother like that?"
"No mother lies to her child as you do." At that moment, the hatred and disgust Xue Lin felt for that woman, who was her mother, made her speechless. She couldn’t find exact words to express her feelings. "I was out there to study but you didn’t like that I was leading a good life. You were jealous. That’s why you called me back to hell. I see your expression. You cannot control your happiness."
"She is happy because you came back." Her father took her mother’s side.
