Seeing this, Ye Chen continued, "The old Lin family must have anticipated this as well. The reason they chose not to clarify things and instead let nature take its course is likely due to their own principles of conduct. From their perspective, they certainly bear a certain degree of responsibility behind Lin Tiannan's heinous crimes, so even though they saw through Wang Jing'an's plan, they refuse to intervene! That is the Lin family for you—far too pedantic! And Wang Jing'an is precisely taking advantage of the Lin family's mindset to act so blatantly!"
As he mentioned the pedantry of the Lin family, Ye Chen could not help but recall the trajectory of the Lin family's fate in his past life.
Back when Lin Tiannan's crimes came to light in his past life, Lin Fengxue did not have to resign to take the blame; in fact, had he simply exerted some influence, the Lin family might not have suffered such a devastating blow. Yet, driven precisely by that kind of "pedantry"—perhaps better described as the "principles" they upheld—they chose to step down in resignation as a form of accountability, thereby drawing back the curtain on the decline of the Lin family!
