Lin Fan immediately stopped and turned to look at her with narrowed eyes as he said, "Lin? Are you a part of the Lin Family?"
Lin Li Zi was surprised by this sudden change with Lin Fan, but she slowly gave a nod as she said, "Un, I'm a part of the Lin Family."
When he heard this, he immediately knitted his brows and fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.
Lin Li Zi could see that something was wrong with Lin Fan, so she added, "I might be from the Lin Family, but I'm just an illegitimate child from a branch family. I have no status at all."
She had misunderstood that he was doubting why she even needed his help.
After all, if she was someone from the Lin Family, why wouldn't she just use the power of the Lin Family to get what she wanted?
Seeing that he was still looking at her with that same look, Lin Li Zi said, "My mother and I don't even live in the main house, so I have to work as a mercenary to earn money. My mother also used to work, but…she fell ill."
