Her days are busy but fulfilling. However, she notices the mother and daughter living across the hall seem quite pitiful, so she often leaves them some food. The little girl always thanks her with starry eyes. As Lin Ran gradually becomes acquainted with the woman and child, she learns that the woman is none other than Mo Shuyu. Lin Ran's attitude towards them turns icy. Rest in the inf
