Chapter 260: Chapter 260: Turns Out Everyone Knows Chapter 260: Chapter 260: Turns Out Everyone Knows Su ixi continued to deceive Xi Wanfen, “Do you have your sister’s WeChat? How about you give your sister’s WeChat, and I’ll ask her when she’s free, and we can make friends along the way.”
Upon hearing this, Xi Wanfen beca imdiately tense.
“She…”
Su ixi persisted, “Even if she isn’t often at ho, she must be using WeChat, right? Everyone uses WeChat these days. Why don’t you tell her now, and say that she should add , or I’ll add her?”
Xi Wanfen hastily replied, “My sister… My sister has recently had a conflict with our parents, she might not want to add you.”
“Ah? A conflict? Then you should give her WeChat even more, maybe I can diate sohow.”
“Sister Su…” Xi Wanfen continued to make excuses, “Sister Su, to tell you the truth, the reason Sister Linlin is having conflicts with our parents is because she is unhappy that they’ve acknowledged you as their goddaughter, because you might take the love of our parents from her.”
“How could that be? We’re all grown-ups, not kids anymore. How can there be such a thing as stealing love? We’re all supposed to be sisters.”
Finally, Xi Wanfen couldn’t take it anymore, exclaiming, “Sister Su, maybe this is just how you see things, but Sister Linlin… she doesn’t think so, she has already been kicked out by our parents because of this.”
This was sothing Su ixi hadn’t considered. Their parents had actually kicked Xi Wanlin out.
She continued pretending to be oblivious, “Kicked out, just because of ? That won’t do. I don’t want to be a villain here, perhaps we should stop contacting each other from now on, to avoid affecting your family’s harmony.”
Xi Wanfen urgently said, “No, no, in our parents’ eyes, they favor you more.”
Su ixi was startled.
She continued to probe Xiao Fen, “Many people say I look like Godmother, is that why?”
Xi Wanfen decided not to beat around the bush anymore. Although she wasn’t dumb, being young, she was no match for Su ixi. She simply confessed, “Sister Su, haven’t you ever considered the possibility that you might be the biological child of our parents?”
Inside, Su ixi felt a storm brewing, but she managed to keep a calm deanor, eating and replying, “Xiao Fen, are you joking? Just looking alike doesn’t an we could be biological.”
Xiao Fen laid it all out, “You are indeed their biological child. They’ve checked. You and Sister Linlin were switched at birth. Sister Linlin has known about this for a long ti, but she never told our parents, which caused you so much suffering outside.”
A piece of chicken Su ixi was holding dropped to the table.
Xi Wanfen continued, “Sister Su, actually, our parents have known for a long ti. They didn’t tell you because they were worried you couldn’t accept this truth, so they’ve always been looking for opportunities to get close to you.”
They’ve known all along?
It turned out they were all just playing roles with each other this whole ti.
Seeing Su ixi stunned, Xiao Fen quickly said, “Sister Su… No, I shouldn’t call you Sister Su anymore. You were originally supposed to have the surna Xi, like . Sister, please don’t bla our parents. They had a tough ti and didn’t know the truth when they were separated from you for so many years. Once they learned the truth, they sent Sister Linlin away right away. To think, they discarded a daughter they had raised for over 30 years.”
Su ixi barely concealed the turmoil inside her.
She said to Xiao Fen, “Xiao Fen, I have sothing else to do, so I won’t chat with you anymore. I’m full as well. Thank you for treating to dinner today.”
“Sister…” Xiao Fen wasn’t sure if she had said sothing wrong.
Su ixi smiled at her and hugged her, just like an elder sister embracing her beloved younger sister.
…
“So you’re saying, Mr. Xi and Mrs. Li knew all along that you’re their biological daughter?”
At night, Su ixi called Gu Wei, who asked her this question.
“Yeah, don’t you also think it’s kind of funny? I know, and they know too, but we all pretended not to know,” Su ixi laughed, “I don’t even know what excuses we’ll co up with to et next ti. It’s just going to be awkward.”
Gu Wei laughed, “As long as everyone knows, that’s fine. You’re always acting, and it made act along too, even though I’ve known all along that you all knew.”
“Ah?”
Gu Wei told her about the investigation he asked Gu Cheng to conduct, and added, “Su Qiang has already been arrested. You haven’t received any calls from him recently, have you?”
“No wonder. So you all were keeping this from . It’s really annoying!”
“I just wanted you to develop a closer relationship with them. Blood relations cannot be avoided; you have to face them.”
Su ixi gave a bitter smile. “As a child, I longed for blood-related kinship. I never thought I’d only get it as I approached 30.”
“It’s never too late. What matters is that they truly love you.”
“But I heard they drove their original daughter away, and I feel a bit guilty about it.”
“Ah Xi, that’s because you’re too kind-hearted. If it were soone else, they’d have wished to drive her away sooner and even humiliate her further. Only kind-hearted people feel guilt. Don’t be hard on yourself.”
“Now I know. I actually do long to get along with them.”
“Ah Xi, congratulations. More and more people love you now,” Gu Wei sincerely said.
…
Li Family.
Xi Wanlin had beco a frequent visitor recently, now that they had registered their marriage, giving her legitimacy.
She occasionally brought gifts to please the parents of the Li Family.
The Li Family was a financial powerhouse in Yun City, wealthy enough not to need Xi Wanlin’s trinkets. Yet due to the Xi Family’s status, even cheaper gifts were treasured.
One day, after having dinner at the Li’s, Xi Wanlin took a car ride back with Li Hengze.
In the car, Xi Wanlin said to Li Hengze, “It seems like your parents really like .”
“They’ve always liked you; haven’t you noticed?” Li Hengze smiled.
Xi Wanlin continued, “Hengze, have you ever thought about sothing? If I weren’t from the Xi Family, would you all still like ?”
“Why wouldn’t we? You are you, and the Xi Family is the Xi Family. I naturally like you.”
Xi Wanlin smiled, but she inwardly didn’t quite believe it.
The Li Family would not marry a daughter from a common family.
Xi Wanlin added, “Since we’re already legally married, we might as well skip the wedding. I don’t like hassle, and my dad dislikes waste. Besides, I’m already your wife.”
Suddenly, Li Hengze refused, “No, even if it’s simple, we must have a wedding where our parents and relatives co together as witnesses. I can’t let you be wronged like that.”
“But what if I’m willing to keep it simple?”
“That still won’t do.”
Li Hengze firmly disagreed.
Li Family.
Just after Li Hengze and Xi Wanlin left, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li were already discussing.
Mr. Li: “It’s ti to start planning the wedding for our third son and Linlin.”
Mrs. Li asked, “Why don’t you discuss it with Mr. Xi?”
