However, everyone was shocked not only shocked by their clothes but also by Chen Yao’s words.
‘ Their granddaughter? they all thought. Even though, from that visit to the hospital, they knew that Chen Yao had found her daughter and got themselves a granddaughter in the process, they didn’t expect that granddaughter to be Yun Nan, the second daughter-in-law of the Shi family.
They couldn’t believe it at first, but there, standing next to Yun Nan, was the youngest chairman in Rong City, the Shi family’s second young master, Shi Nian.
“This is Yun Nan. She’s our daughter’s—Xiao He’s—adopted child, and also our granddaughter! This is Yun Nan’s husband, Shi Nian. You guys know him too, don’t you? Yun Nan, Shi Nian, come and meet your uncle, aunts, and cousins!” As Chen Yao spoke, she pulled Yun Nan along and introduced her and Shi Nian to her relatives one by one.
When the Gu family visited the Shi family before, it was an exchange between family friends. Now, Shi Nian was visiting Yun Nan’s maiden family as Yun Nan’s husband—a completely different identity.
Yun Liu had noticed Shi Nian and Yun Nan the moment they entered and wondered why these two people were there at her banquet. She called Tan Ning over and quietly ordered her to get the reporters to pay attention to the couple. They were to write articles about anything they found, no matter what it was, and bring all hell down on Yun Nan.
Tan Ning nodded and left. When Chen Yao revealed Yun Nan’s identity soon after, Yun Liu was dumbstruck. ‘How is this possible? Yun Liu thought. ‘How can Yun Nan be Gu Bei and Chen Yao’s granddaughter? Then, doesn’t that make us cousins? No, no way! How is this possible? ICs impossible!’
Yun Liu glared at Yun Nan so hard that her eyes nearly bled! ‘Why is this woman so d*mn lucky? Yun Liu inwardly raged. Yun Nan was the Yun family’s biological daughter, while Yun Liu was only adopted. Although Yun Liu had managed to chase her out of the Yun family, the woman then went and married the man of her dreams, Shi Nian. After that, Yun Nan was able to resolve all her predicaments and make her career flourish, no matter what carefully calculated plans she threw at her. No matter how much Yun Liu didn’t want to admit it, she knew Shi Nian had feelings for Yun Nan; he never looked at anyone else the way he looked at her.
Yun Liu had let go of her feelings for Shi Nian with much difficulty and started to focus on her own career. She thought the heavens finally smiled on her when she found her birth parents, who were much wealthier and more reliable than the Yuns. The Gu family had just acknowledged her as their daughter, but not even half a day later, her happiness was ruined when Yun Nan appeared and actually became her cousin!
‘I haven’t even gotten used to my identity as the Gu familrs daughter yet, and Yun Nan is already squeezing in? Yun Liu silently fumed. ‘No way!
‘Judging from Chen Yao’s attitude towards Yun Nan, it’s obvious how much she likes her! It’s so unfair!’ Gu Bei and Chen Yao were people that everyone in the Gu family admired and revered! Gu Bei had long retired from all his posts in the Gu family and spent most of his life looking for his daughter. While he searched, he started up his own businesses, independent of the Gu family, but became rich enough to rival the Gu family! It was said that even Yun Liu’s father and uncles often had to borrow money from Gu Bei, which just showed how capable the man was!
Yun Liu mentally ranted, ‘ What kind of dumb luck does Yun Nan have? Didn’t she grow up in the countryside? Her adoptive mother was barely literate; how could she be Gu Bei and Chen Yao’s daughter?
Yun Liu’s heart nearly bled as she thought, ‘ Why are the heavens so biased? Why niust They give everything good to Yun Nan? Why is it that Yun Nan can effortlessly reach the heights andpeaks that I could never reach, no matter howpainstakingly I tried?
Chen Yao now stood before Yun Liu. “Is this your newly recovered daughter?”
“Yes, she is!” Zheng Xiu quickly answered. “Yun Liu, this is your Grandma Chen Yao!” Yun Liu stared at Yun Nan in a daze and didn’t react.
Yun Nan whispered a few words to Chen Yao, who raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Oh? How could there be such a coincidence? You—You both have the same surname, Yun. Why didn’t I notice that earlier?”
Yun Nan smiled at Yun Liu. “What a coincidence, sis. It looks like we’re destined to be sisters. After all the twists and turns, we’re still sisters. Well, cousins, actually, but close enough.”
Zheng Xiu chuckled, “Yeah, that’s destiny for you. Such a bond has to be cherished! You two sisters must get along well in the future.”
She tugged at her daughter’s wrist. Yun Liu finally came back to her senses and said bitterly, “You truly are lucky, Yun Nan.”
Yun Nan smiled. She guessed Yun Liu was probably thinking, ‘Why are you still haunting me? To be honest, she didn’t want to be around Yun Liu either, but life just so happens to be full of coincidences. There was nothing she could do about it.
The ones present who felt most awkward were Yun Xiang and Gu Wei. When Chang Hui enthusiastically introduced them to Gu Bei and his wife, she excitedly said, “These are Yun Liu’s adoptive parents.. They raised Yun Liu since she was a kid and treated her like their own, so they are our Gu family’s benefactors! Oh! Speaking of which, they are also Yun Nan’s biological parents!”
